00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:04.639
With the advances in artificial intelligence, it's easy for people
2
00:00:04.679 --> 00:00:07.559
to become complacent, especially in Western society, especially here in
3
00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:11.439
the United States. There's one area though, where artificial intelligence
4
00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:16.000
I do not believe it's anywhere near ready for big time,
5
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:20.280
and yet it's already being used, and some nurses are
6
00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:24.120
calling it out. Of course, I'm talking about the healthcare industry.
7
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:27.239
We're sure using AI tools might be beneficial and helping
8
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:30.359
to diagnose, helping to analyze, but when it comes to
9
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:34.640
direct interactions, I don't want AI anywhere near me, or
10
00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:37.840
my family or anybody that I even like, let alone love.
11
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:41.679
Except that's exactly what's happening. According to an article that
12
00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:45.079
we have over at based Underground dot com, Kaiser nurses
13
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:49.479
sound the alarm that AI surveillance threatens patient care and
14
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:55.039
human dignity. Kaiser Permanentites Advice Nurses are raising red flags
15
00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:59.679
about the rapid integration of AI and workplace surveillance tools.
16
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:03.640
It is. It's flat out surveillance. This isn't hyperbole. They
17
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:06.959
are having all their calls monitored. AI is going through
18
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.680
them and they're facing actual repercussions based upon the tone
19
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:13.959
of their voice, the link of their calls, everything all
20
00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:18.280
driven by artificial intelligence. Far from the promised efficiencies, these
21
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:21.359
technologies appear to be squeezing the humanity out of nursing,
22
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:26.359
prioritizing metrics and cost cutting over compassionate care. Call center
23
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:30.359
nurses at the massive nonprofit health Giant report that constant
24
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:34.079
monitoring and AI driven evaluations are forcing them to rush
25
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:39.239
through patient interactions. Stop. Okay, let's just stop right there
26
00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:43.200
and declare that that's wrong. If I'm on the phone
27
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:47.599
with a nurse and I'm having some sort of medical concern,
28
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:51.599
medical issue, one that maybe doesn't necessarily require me to
29
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:54.599
go to the hospital, but that I have a concern about,
30
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:57.000
and look, I'm that guy. I don't go to the
31
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.000
hospital nless I absolutely positively have to. If I can
32
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:03.079
reset the bone and throw some duct tape around it,
33
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:05.959
that's me, I know, probably the wrong approach, and I'm
34
00:02:05.959 --> 00:02:09.919
not offering medical advice by any means. Don't listen to me.
35
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:15.719
But with that said, you know, these nurses, these call
36
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:21.439
centered nurses, play an extremely important role into day's today's world.
37
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:23.919
We want to try to avoid having to go into
38
00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:27.439
health care facilities as much as possible, and if we
39
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.319
can describe what's happening to us or our loved ones
40
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:33.400
and get advice from an experienced nurse on the other end.
41
00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:36.560
That's a good thing, except when these nurses are concerned
42
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:41.080
that the tone of their voice might actually raise red
43
00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:43.960
flags and get them called into the office, which is
44
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:48.479
exactly what's happening, and they're not happy about it. Tools
45
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:52.120
that scrutinize tone of voice, empathy levels, and call duration
46
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:55.919
are turning dedicated professionals into data points, undermining the very
47
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:00.280
duty of care that dies defines their vocation. This is
48
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:04.800
in progress. Its corporate experiment that risks real harm to
49
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:11.960
patients seeking timely, thoughtful medical guidance. The concerns echo broader
50
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.759
warnings from nurses across California and the nation. At Kaiser Advice,
51
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:19.599
nurses handling triage and patient advice calls describe an environment
52
00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:24.919
where speed trump's safety and again stop right there. At
53
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:32.000
no point should should somebody's effectiveness as a call nurse
54
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:35.800
be determined based upon whether or not AI thinks they're
55
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:40.719
taking too long. Take as long as you need, take
56
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:43.560
as long as is necessary. Now, I'm not suggesting they
57
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:47.680
don't need supervision. I just don't want AI making the call. Okay,
58
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:51.080
I mean, there are ways in these call centers, in
59
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:57.039
these hospitals where you can have appropriate, proper medical monitoring
60
00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:00.800
without having to worry about the efects of AI. And
61
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:04.199
here's the thing. Even if let's say that AI isn't
62
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:07.840
making bad choices, that doesn't matter the fact that they're
63
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:12.919
being monitored. They're being surveiled by artificial intelligence. That's disconcerting
64
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:16.000
to a whole bunch of people. Okay, some of you
65
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:18.439
out there might be like, cool, it's gonna happen anyway,
66
00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:21.879
you know, bring on minority report. I'm ready. Well, I'm not.
67
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:24.439
And I would imagine that a lot of nurses are
68
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:29.800
not either. An AI tool tested since twenty twenty four
69
00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:33.639
analyzes vocal tones for empathy, adding another layer of oversight
70
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:39.000
a This push towards surveillance heavy AI in healthcare fits
71
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:42.720
a troubling pattern. Large institutions, often shielded by layers of
72
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:47.920
bureaucracy and progressive policy, embrace unproven technologies while sidelining the
73
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:53.399
experienced judgment of frontline workers. The nurses are supposed to
74
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:56.040
be the front line. Anybody who's ever spent time in
75
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:58.360
the hospital, and you know who's calling the shots sure,
76
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.120
your doctor's got to sign this, and they've got to
77
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:04.079
analyze that, and they're the ones that make the final call.
78
00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:07.160
But in the day to day actual care of the
79
00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:10.000
vast majority of patients in America, it is the nurse.
80
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:16.360
Your nurse, nurses plural, they're the ones that deliver the
81
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:18.600
bulk of the care. They're the ones that are actually
82
00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:22.680
keeping Americans healthy. And I don't want them, whether they're
83
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:24.959
on the phone or off the phone, or doing their
84
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:28.040
rounds or whatever, I don't want them stressed out because
85
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:31.160
they're scared that AI big brother is going to out
86
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.720
them and bring them in for a performance review, which
87
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:37.319
is exactly what's happening. By the way, this isn't like hypothetical.
88
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:40.800
This is exactly what's happening. And that's why these ladies
89
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:43.959
and gentlemen there's men involve two. I shouldn't sound Oh,
90
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:47.000
he's one of those old boomer sexists whose things all
91
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:51.600
nurses should be women. No, that's not me. I'm for
92
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:54.000
female nurses, to be clear, But that's just because I
93
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:57.040
think they're generally speaking. My experience is that they've been
94
00:05:57.079 --> 00:05:59.079
better than the male versions. Of course, I haven't been
95
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:03.360
to a whole hospitals, So who knows anyway, before I
96
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:05.920
get into any more trouble, there is a human cost
97
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:09.800
of metric driven medicine. Nurses have long served as the
98
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:14.600
compassionate bridge between patients and complex medical systems. Their role
99
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:18.800
demands attentiveness, discernment, and the ability to read subtle cues
100
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.680
that no algorithm can fully capture. Yet at Kaiser workplace
101
00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:27.079
tools reportedly penalized deviations from scripted efficiency, leaving little room
102
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:31.639
for the nuanced conversations that can prevent emergencies or provide reassurance.
103
00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:35.839
Critics rightly question whether these systems truly serve patients or
104
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:38.879
simply pad the bottom line. Kaiser Permanente, one of the
105
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:42.959
earliest adopters of AI in healthcare settings, promotes its tools
106
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:47.040
as innovations that reduce burnout and improve outcomes, But nurses
107
00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:50.120
on the ground tell a very different story, one of
108
00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:55.040
increased pressure, erode to trust, and compromised safety. When it
109
00:06:55.079 --> 00:07:00.480
comes to health, you don't want to compromise, period And
110
00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:05.639
even if AI advances to the point people keep talking about, oh, yeah,
111
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:08.439
you know, AI is going to be helping us make medicines.
112
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:11.199
AI is going to help us make vaccines they're gonna
113
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:16.199
perfect mRNA AI is going to make your doctor obsolete
114
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:21.560
once you have have the robotics accurate enough, which it's there,
115
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:24.800
it's pretty much there. Tie that in. You'll soon be
116
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:28.720
having full blown AI robot driven surgeries. They're going to
117
00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:32.040
be cutting you open and taking out your appendix or whatever.
118
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:36.720
Not me, I want a human doctor. Can humans make mistakes,
119
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:39.639
you bet you. But as long as they're the ones
120
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.160
making the mistakes, I'm not going to wonder whether or
121
00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:45.879
not the artificial intelligence made a blunder based upon stupidity
122
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.959
or inefficiency, or if it's just part of the whole
123
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.199
artificial intelligence taking over the world and bringing about the
124
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:58.839
end times and the b system. There's that that's possibility. Well,
125
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:04.040
just second their professor, we fixed the glitch so he
126
00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:06.720
won't be receiving a paycheck anymore. So it'll just work
127
00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:10.000
itself out naturally. Into We always like to avoid confrontation
128
00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:14.199
whenever possible. There comes a point where all you really
129
00:08:14.199 --> 00:08:18.279
want is transparency. You know, the expectations that the bad
130
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:20.839
guys are going to be held accountable. I think many
131
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:25.079
of us have grown weary of holding on to such hopes.
132
00:08:25.319 --> 00:08:29.399
Right The seth Rich case is one of those scenarios.
133
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:35.080
I would love to know exactly what happened. The theories
134
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:38.600
out there, that conspiracy theories out there all seem pretty sound,
135
00:08:38.679 --> 00:08:41.080
you know, as far as conspiracy theories go. This one
136
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:43.480
seems to fit right, This one seems to make a
137
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:47.960
lot of sense. Here's a DNC staffer who many believe
138
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:52.519
was involved in the leaking of emails DNC emails, including
139
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:57.799
the infamous John Podesta emails, the Hillary Clinton emails, that
140
00:08:57.879 --> 00:09:00.159
he's the guy that leaked it to wiki leaks and
141
00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:03.480
got all of that exposed. Now, of course nothing came
142
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:08.480
from it. Unfortunately, that's that's the reality of a society
143
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:11.120
that doesn't like to look at such uncomfortable things and
144
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:14.600
doesn't like to acknowledge when when our quote unquote leaders
145
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:19.720
are doing doing very very very evil things. Well, Seth
146
00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:22.519
Ridge thought that by getting the information out there that
147
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:27.639
it would it would expose things, and instead he ended
148
00:09:27.720 --> 00:09:32.000
up getting killed in what they're saying was a botched robbery,
149
00:09:32.039 --> 00:09:35.080
when what many of us believe was was far far
150
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.919
worse than that. Well, we now have at least one
151
00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:41.000
member of Congress on our side trying to get the
152
00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:43.879
truth out there. According to an article over at zero Hedge.
153
00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:47.320
This is actually they copied the article from Headline USA
154
00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:51.519
dot com, but either way, Tennessee Congressman demands FBI unsealed
155
00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:54.879
everything on Seth Ritch. And of course that that congressman
156
00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:58.360
is is uh Tim Burchett one of the few that
157
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:00.919
we can trust at least for the most p on
158
00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:04.200
Capitol Hill. Jose Ninho reports that Tennessee Rep. Timber Chet
159
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.600
has demanded FBI Director Cash Hotel unsealed and release all
160
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:11.360
records related to the twenty sixteen murder of DNC staffer
161
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:14.799
Seth Rich. He was twenty seven when he was shot
162
00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:17.759
in Washington, d C. And what police called a botched robbery,
163
00:10:17.799 --> 00:10:20.759
but his death sparked persistent theories that he leaked DNC
164
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:26.120
emails two WEEKI leaks before being silenced. The demand builds
165
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:30.840
on years of foil lidication by litigation by attorney ty Clevenger,
166
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.639
which forced the FBI to had met holding over twenty
167
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.679
thousand pages of documents Rich's work laptop, and an image
168
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:41.399
of his personal device. Now keep in mind the FBI
169
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:44.159
up up until they were forced to tell the at
170
00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:46.279
least part of the truth, they were saying no We're
171
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:48.600
not even looking into it. This is a local police matter.
172
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:51.039
It's just a crime. FBI is not involved. You know,
173
00:10:51.080 --> 00:10:53.799
we don't have at least twenty thousand pages of documents
174
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:57.480
or his laptop or anything else the FBI. Again, this
175
00:10:57.600 --> 00:11:00.559
is not fact. This is how the theory there he goes.
176
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:07.480
The FBI, working with the DNC, decided to cover it up.
177
00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:14.080
They for whatever reason, they came along and they said, oh,
178
00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:20.240
look at this, and then they walked away. Instead of
179
00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:24.000
investigating it, they took the evidence and covered it up.
180
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:26.960
They hit it. They had the local police say up
181
00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:31.919
just botch robbery shotswiss in the head, assassination style because
182
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:36.080
he wouldn't give over his TIMEX watch or whatever it
183
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:39.559
was that they were claiming. Do I expect there to
184
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:43.279
be any repercussions from this within the FBI, within the
185
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:48.679
DNC with is anybody, Will anybody who participated in this
186
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:55.519
murder ever be be caught, arrested, charged, tried, convicted. No,
187
00:11:56.879 --> 00:11:59.679
but at the very least we can get transparency. And
188
00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:03.000
praise God for both Ty Clevenger as well as for
189
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:06.480
timber Chet for trying to shine a light on this.
190
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:09.360
It didn't get the attention it deserved, not at the time.
191
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:12.360
Hasn't been getting the attention it has deserved ever since
192
00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:16.000
legacy media effectively buried it. It came at a time
193
00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:21.279
when we weren't quite ready as citizen journalists to fully
194
00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:24.919
get the word out, and so hopefully now this will
195
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:29.919
be an opportunity to re litigate, at least in the podcastisphere,
196
00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:37.639
relitigate the very sordid, ugly case of Seth Rich. It
197
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:40.240
will shock you how much it never happened.
1
00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:04.639
With the advances in artificial intelligence, it's easy for people
2
00:00:04.679 --> 00:00:07.559
to become complacent, especially in Western society, especially here in
3
00:00:07.559 --> 00:00:11.439
the United States. There's one area though, where artificial intelligence
4
00:00:11.519 --> 00:00:16.000
I do not believe it's anywhere near ready for big time,
5
00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:20.280
and yet it's already being used, and some nurses are
6
00:00:21.440 --> 00:00:24.120
calling it out. Of course, I'm talking about the healthcare industry.
7
00:00:24.399 --> 00:00:27.239
We're sure using AI tools might be beneficial and helping
8
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:30.359
to diagnose, helping to analyze, but when it comes to
9
00:00:30.399 --> 00:00:34.640
direct interactions, I don't want AI anywhere near me, or
10
00:00:34.679 --> 00:00:37.840
my family or anybody that I even like, let alone love.
11
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:41.679
Except that's exactly what's happening. According to an article that
12
00:00:41.719 --> 00:00:45.079
we have over at based Underground dot com, Kaiser nurses
13
00:00:45.439 --> 00:00:49.479
sound the alarm that AI surveillance threatens patient care and
14
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:55.039
human dignity. Kaiser Permanentites Advice Nurses are raising red flags
15
00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:59.679
about the rapid integration of AI and workplace surveillance tools.
16
00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:03.640
It is. It's flat out surveillance. This isn't hyperbole. They
17
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:06.959
are having all their calls monitored. AI is going through
18
00:01:07.040 --> 00:01:10.680
them and they're facing actual repercussions based upon the tone
19
00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:13.959
of their voice, the link of their calls, everything all
20
00:01:14.079 --> 00:01:18.280
driven by artificial intelligence. Far from the promised efficiencies, these
21
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:21.359
technologies appear to be squeezing the humanity out of nursing,
22
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:26.359
prioritizing metrics and cost cutting over compassionate care. Call center
23
00:01:26.599 --> 00:01:30.359
nurses at the massive nonprofit health Giant report that constant
24
00:01:30.439 --> 00:01:34.079
monitoring and AI driven evaluations are forcing them to rush
25
00:01:34.120 --> 00:01:39.239
through patient interactions. Stop. Okay, let's just stop right there
26
00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:43.200
and declare that that's wrong. If I'm on the phone
27
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:47.599
with a nurse and I'm having some sort of medical concern,
28
00:01:47.680 --> 00:01:51.599
medical issue, one that maybe doesn't necessarily require me to
29
00:01:51.599 --> 00:01:54.599
go to the hospital, but that I have a concern about,
30
00:01:54.599 --> 00:01:57.000
and look, I'm that guy. I don't go to the
31
00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:00.000
hospital nless I absolutely positively have to. If I can
32
00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:03.079
reset the bone and throw some duct tape around it,
33
00:02:03.120 --> 00:02:05.959
that's me, I know, probably the wrong approach, and I'm
34
00:02:05.959 --> 00:02:09.919
not offering medical advice by any means. Don't listen to me.
35
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:15.719
But with that said, you know, these nurses, these call
36
00:02:15.759 --> 00:02:21.439
centered nurses, play an extremely important role into day's today's world.
37
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:23.919
We want to try to avoid having to go into
38
00:02:24.280 --> 00:02:27.439
health care facilities as much as possible, and if we
39
00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:30.319
can describe what's happening to us or our loved ones
40
00:02:30.840 --> 00:02:33.400
and get advice from an experienced nurse on the other end.
41
00:02:33.639 --> 00:02:36.560
That's a good thing, except when these nurses are concerned
42
00:02:36.560 --> 00:02:41.080
that the tone of their voice might actually raise red
43
00:02:41.080 --> 00:02:43.960
flags and get them called into the office, which is
44
00:02:44.039 --> 00:02:48.479
exactly what's happening, and they're not happy about it. Tools
45
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:52.120
that scrutinize tone of voice, empathy levels, and call duration
46
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:55.919
are turning dedicated professionals into data points, undermining the very
47
00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:00.280
duty of care that dies defines their vocation. This is
48
00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:04.800
in progress. Its corporate experiment that risks real harm to
49
00:03:04.879 --> 00:03:11.960
patients seeking timely, thoughtful medical guidance. The concerns echo broader
50
00:03:12.000 --> 00:03:15.759
warnings from nurses across California and the nation. At Kaiser Advice,
51
00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:19.599
nurses handling triage and patient advice calls describe an environment
52
00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:24.919
where speed trump's safety and again stop right there. At
53
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:32.000
no point should should somebody's effectiveness as a call nurse
54
00:03:32.680 --> 00:03:35.800
be determined based upon whether or not AI thinks they're
55
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:40.719
taking too long. Take as long as you need, take
56
00:03:40.759 --> 00:03:43.560
as long as is necessary. Now, I'm not suggesting they
57
00:03:43.560 --> 00:03:47.680
don't need supervision. I just don't want AI making the call. Okay,
58
00:03:48.000 --> 00:03:51.080
I mean, there are ways in these call centers, in
59
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:57.039
these hospitals where you can have appropriate, proper medical monitoring
60
00:03:57.439 --> 00:04:00.800
without having to worry about the efects of AI. And
61
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:04.199
here's the thing. Even if let's say that AI isn't
62
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:07.840
making bad choices, that doesn't matter the fact that they're
63
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:12.919
being monitored. They're being surveiled by artificial intelligence. That's disconcerting
64
00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:16.000
to a whole bunch of people. Okay, some of you
65
00:04:16.079 --> 00:04:18.439
out there might be like, cool, it's gonna happen anyway,
66
00:04:18.759 --> 00:04:21.879
you know, bring on minority report. I'm ready. Well, I'm not.
67
00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:24.439
And I would imagine that a lot of nurses are
68
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:29.800
not either. An AI tool tested since twenty twenty four
69
00:04:29.879 --> 00:04:33.639
analyzes vocal tones for empathy, adding another layer of oversight
70
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:39.000
a This push towards surveillance heavy AI in healthcare fits
71
00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:42.720
a troubling pattern. Large institutions, often shielded by layers of
72
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:47.920
bureaucracy and progressive policy, embrace unproven technologies while sidelining the
73
00:04:48.160 --> 00:04:53.399
experienced judgment of frontline workers. The nurses are supposed to
74
00:04:53.399 --> 00:04:56.040
be the front line. Anybody who's ever spent time in
75
00:04:56.079 --> 00:04:58.360
the hospital, and you know who's calling the shots sure,
76
00:04:58.439 --> 00:05:01.120
your doctor's got to sign this, and they've got to
77
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:04.079
analyze that, and they're the ones that make the final call.
78
00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:07.160
But in the day to day actual care of the
79
00:05:07.240 --> 00:05:10.000
vast majority of patients in America, it is the nurse.
80
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:16.360
Your nurse, nurses plural, they're the ones that deliver the
81
00:05:16.399 --> 00:05:18.600
bulk of the care. They're the ones that are actually
82
00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:22.680
keeping Americans healthy. And I don't want them, whether they're
83
00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:24.959
on the phone or off the phone, or doing their
84
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:28.040
rounds or whatever, I don't want them stressed out because
85
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:31.160
they're scared that AI big brother is going to out
86
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:33.720
them and bring them in for a performance review, which
87
00:05:33.759 --> 00:05:37.319
is exactly what's happening. By the way, this isn't like hypothetical.
88
00:05:37.600 --> 00:05:40.800
This is exactly what's happening. And that's why these ladies
89
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:43.959
and gentlemen there's men involve two. I shouldn't sound Oh,
90
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:47.000
he's one of those old boomer sexists whose things all
91
00:05:47.079 --> 00:05:51.600
nurses should be women. No, that's not me. I'm for
92
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:54.000
female nurses, to be clear, But that's just because I
93
00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:57.040
think they're generally speaking. My experience is that they've been
94
00:05:57.079 --> 00:05:59.079
better than the male versions. Of course, I haven't been
95
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:03.360
to a whole hospitals, So who knows anyway, before I
96
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:05.920
get into any more trouble, there is a human cost
97
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:09.800
of metric driven medicine. Nurses have long served as the
98
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:14.600
compassionate bridge between patients and complex medical systems. Their role
99
00:06:14.800 --> 00:06:18.800
demands attentiveness, discernment, and the ability to read subtle cues
100
00:06:19.000 --> 00:06:22.680
that no algorithm can fully capture. Yet at Kaiser workplace
101
00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:27.079
tools reportedly penalized deviations from scripted efficiency, leaving little room
102
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:31.639
for the nuanced conversations that can prevent emergencies or provide reassurance.
103
00:06:32.360 --> 00:06:35.839
Critics rightly question whether these systems truly serve patients or
104
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:38.879
simply pad the bottom line. Kaiser Permanente, one of the
105
00:06:38.879 --> 00:06:42.959
earliest adopters of AI in healthcare settings, promotes its tools
106
00:06:42.959 --> 00:06:47.040
as innovations that reduce burnout and improve outcomes, But nurses
107
00:06:47.040 --> 00:06:50.120
on the ground tell a very different story, one of
108
00:06:50.160 --> 00:06:55.040
increased pressure, erode to trust, and compromised safety. When it
109
00:06:55.079 --> 00:07:00.480
comes to health, you don't want to compromise, period And
110
00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:05.639
even if AI advances to the point people keep talking about, oh, yeah,
111
00:07:05.759 --> 00:07:08.439
you know, AI is going to be helping us make medicines.
112
00:07:08.480 --> 00:07:11.199
AI is going to help us make vaccines they're gonna
113
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:16.199
perfect mRNA AI is going to make your doctor obsolete
114
00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:21.560
once you have have the robotics accurate enough, which it's there,
115
00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:24.800
it's pretty much there. Tie that in. You'll soon be
116
00:07:24.839 --> 00:07:28.720
having full blown AI robot driven surgeries. They're going to
117
00:07:28.759 --> 00:07:32.040
be cutting you open and taking out your appendix or whatever.
118
00:07:32.959 --> 00:07:36.720
Not me, I want a human doctor. Can humans make mistakes,
119
00:07:36.839 --> 00:07:39.639
you bet you. But as long as they're the ones
120
00:07:39.680 --> 00:07:42.160
making the mistakes, I'm not going to wonder whether or
121
00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:45.879
not the artificial intelligence made a blunder based upon stupidity
122
00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.959
or inefficiency, or if it's just part of the whole
123
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:53.199
artificial intelligence taking over the world and bringing about the
124
00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:58.839
end times and the b system. There's that that's possibility. Well,
125
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:04.040
just second their professor, we fixed the glitch so he
126
00:08:04.120 --> 00:08:06.720
won't be receiving a paycheck anymore. So it'll just work
127
00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:10.000
itself out naturally. Into We always like to avoid confrontation
128
00:08:10.079 --> 00:08:14.199
whenever possible. There comes a point where all you really
129
00:08:14.199 --> 00:08:18.279
want is transparency. You know, the expectations that the bad
130
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:20.839
guys are going to be held accountable. I think many
131
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:25.079
of us have grown weary of holding on to such hopes.
132
00:08:25.319 --> 00:08:29.399
Right The seth Rich case is one of those scenarios.
133
00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:35.080
I would love to know exactly what happened. The theories
134
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:38.600
out there, that conspiracy theories out there all seem pretty sound,
135
00:08:38.679 --> 00:08:41.080
you know, as far as conspiracy theories go. This one
136
00:08:41.159 --> 00:08:43.480
seems to fit right, This one seems to make a
137
00:08:43.480 --> 00:08:47.960
lot of sense. Here's a DNC staffer who many believe
138
00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:52.519
was involved in the leaking of emails DNC emails, including
139
00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:57.799
the infamous John Podesta emails, the Hillary Clinton emails, that
140
00:08:57.879 --> 00:09:00.159
he's the guy that leaked it to wiki leaks and
141
00:09:01.080 --> 00:09:03.480
got all of that exposed. Now, of course nothing came
142
00:09:03.519 --> 00:09:08.480
from it. Unfortunately, that's that's the reality of a society
143
00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:11.120
that doesn't like to look at such uncomfortable things and
144
00:09:11.159 --> 00:09:14.600
doesn't like to acknowledge when when our quote unquote leaders
145
00:09:14.639 --> 00:09:19.720
are doing doing very very very evil things. Well, Seth
146
00:09:19.799 --> 00:09:22.519
Ridge thought that by getting the information out there that
147
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:27.639
it would it would expose things, and instead he ended
148
00:09:27.720 --> 00:09:32.000
up getting killed in what they're saying was a botched robbery,
149
00:09:32.039 --> 00:09:35.080
when what many of us believe was was far far
150
00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:38.919
worse than that. Well, we now have at least one
151
00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:41.000
member of Congress on our side trying to get the
152
00:09:41.039 --> 00:09:43.879
truth out there. According to an article over at zero Hedge.
153
00:09:43.919 --> 00:09:47.320
This is actually they copied the article from Headline USA
154
00:09:47.440 --> 00:09:51.519
dot com, but either way, Tennessee Congressman demands FBI unsealed
155
00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:54.879
everything on Seth Ritch. And of course that that congressman
156
00:09:55.080 --> 00:09:58.360
is is uh Tim Burchett one of the few that
157
00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:00.919
we can trust at least for the most p on
158
00:10:00.960 --> 00:10:04.200
Capitol Hill. Jose Ninho reports that Tennessee Rep. Timber Chet
159
00:10:04.399 --> 00:10:07.600
has demanded FBI Director Cash Hotel unsealed and release all
160
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:11.360
records related to the twenty sixteen murder of DNC staffer
161
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:14.799
Seth Rich. He was twenty seven when he was shot
162
00:10:14.840 --> 00:10:17.759
in Washington, d C. And what police called a botched robbery,
163
00:10:17.799 --> 00:10:20.759
but his death sparked persistent theories that he leaked DNC
164
00:10:20.879 --> 00:10:26.120
emails two WEEKI leaks before being silenced. The demand builds
165
00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:30.840
on years of foil lidication by litigation by attorney ty Clevenger,
166
00:10:31.200 --> 00:10:33.639
which forced the FBI to had met holding over twenty
167
00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:37.679
thousand pages of documents Rich's work laptop, and an image
168
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:41.399
of his personal device. Now keep in mind the FBI
169
00:10:41.559 --> 00:10:44.159
up up until they were forced to tell the at
170
00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:46.279
least part of the truth, they were saying no We're
171
00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:48.600
not even looking into it. This is a local police matter.
172
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:51.039
It's just a crime. FBI is not involved. You know,
173
00:10:51.080 --> 00:10:53.799
we don't have at least twenty thousand pages of documents
174
00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:57.480
or his laptop or anything else the FBI. Again, this
175
00:10:57.600 --> 00:11:00.559
is not fact. This is how the theory there he goes.
176
00:11:01.279 --> 00:11:07.480
The FBI, working with the DNC, decided to cover it up.
177
00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:14.080
They for whatever reason, they came along and they said, oh,
178
00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:20.240
look at this, and then they walked away. Instead of
179
00:11:20.279 --> 00:11:24.000
investigating it, they took the evidence and covered it up.
180
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:26.960
They hit it. They had the local police say up
181
00:11:27.039 --> 00:11:31.919
just botch robbery shotswiss in the head, assassination style because
182
00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:36.080
he wouldn't give over his TIMEX watch or whatever it
183
00:11:36.159 --> 00:11:39.559
was that they were claiming. Do I expect there to
184
00:11:39.639 --> 00:11:43.279
be any repercussions from this within the FBI, within the
185
00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:48.679
DNC with is anybody, Will anybody who participated in this
186
00:11:48.840 --> 00:11:55.519
murder ever be be caught, arrested, charged, tried, convicted. No,
187
00:11:56.879 --> 00:11:59.679
but at the very least we can get transparency. And
188
00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:03.000
praise God for both Ty Clevenger as well as for
189
00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:06.480
timber Chet for trying to shine a light on this.
190
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:09.360
It didn't get the attention it deserved, not at the time.
191
00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:12.360
Hasn't been getting the attention it has deserved ever since
192
00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:16.000
legacy media effectively buried it. It came at a time
193
00:12:16.039 --> 00:12:21.279
when we weren't quite ready as citizen journalists to fully
194
00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:24.919
get the word out, and so hopefully now this will
195
00:12:24.960 --> 00:12:29.919
be an opportunity to re litigate, at least in the podcastisphere,
196
00:12:30.559 --> 00:12:37.639
relitigate the very sordid, ugly case of Seth Rich. It
197
00:12:37.679 --> 00:12:40.240
will shock you how much it never happened.
