be toward the end. All right. Well, I saw an AI researcher, James Zhao, I hope I'm pronouncing that correctly. He thinks AI models are getting substantially worse over time, and potentially it's because of a result of interacting with humans. Now I would like to remind you that I think I might be the only person who is predicting that AI will hit a wall. It's just, it's going to hit a top, and th…
← Previous segment →ou think about these vaccinations and whatever you think about masks. You better get rid of that free speech. It's going to happen to AI. You think AI is going to be the only entity that can have free speech? Because imagine this. Imagine I say, you know, there's some things I would certainly never say, but here's my AI to tell you its opinion. It's not my opinion, it's the AI talking. There's no way that will be allowed. We don't have a system that would allow AI to get smarter than us. And that's not a very high bar, except as I say, coding and math and playing chess and stuff. It'll be great at that.
All right, here's some fake science. Jay Bhattacharya, you know him from being right about everything about the pandemic. He tweets that the CDC commissioned scientists to see if N95 masks work better than surgical masks for health care workers. Now we're not talking about the pandemic. We're talking about ordinary medical procedures. Now I don't know why they needed to study this. Am I right? Because every, I just spent the last three years being told over and over and over again the N95s work. You know, I'm not talking about COVID, but they work in the medical context. But those regular little ones that we wore, you know, they're not going to perform as well. What do you think the science said? Science said no difference. Let me say that again. After three years of listening to every expert in the world tell us that, you know, one, the one thing we know for sure, like we might be guessing and speculating a lot of things, but there is one thing we know for sure outside of the context of COVID, you know, with regular medical stuff, the N95s work and those other ones, well, you know, kind of not so well. Turns out nothing like that was the case. And so what did the CDC do when it commissioned a high-quality study and it came back saying there was no difference? The CDC decided to ignore the evidence because they didn't like the answer, and so they told the scientists that they were wrong.
So how about AI? We just did a high-quality study and then the people who didn't like the answer said the study must be wrong because it was opposite of what they expected. Do you think AI is going to get treated differently? The moment AI tells us something we don't want to hear, we're going to reprogram it. We're not going to say, wow, that AI sure got smarter than us. Nope. Nope. We don't work that way. That's just not a human activity.
All right. Sam Altman raising money for super AI chips. He thinks he might need 7 trillion. What were you doing today? Like I think I'm all important because I got a little podcast going on here. Oh look at me, I got a couple thousand people looking at me. I'm really killing it today. What's Sam Altman doing? He's raising 7 trillion dollars for the most transformative technology in the history of humankind. And that's okay too. So I mean I'm sure what you did today was good too. Oh it's all about the same equity.
I say, well, Peter Navarro is not getting bail while he's appealing his conviction for not submitting to Congress to testify. Do you see something terribly wrong with this? As in maybe if he'd beaten up some police officers he would get out faster. Like literally he should have assaulted a police officer because I hear if you do that you get out right away. But he refused to participate in a corrupt process as he saw it, and he doesn't get bailed to appeal it. Really? It's not like he doesn't have an appeal. I'm pretty sure he does. I don't know what the basis would be. I'm sure he has an appeal. Oh, how do you interpret this other than Republicans being put in jail and being hunted? It's exactly what it looks like, right? The justice system is completely corrupt.
Do you know the host of The View named Sunny Hostin? Yes, she's a host named Hostin. You really, and the funny thing is that she's always negative and her name is Sunny Hostin. So she's

literally hosting negativity, but her name is Sunny Hostin. But she's also very much in favor of reparations. She really likes the slavery reparations, even now after doing a DNA test to find out that she's descended from Spanish slave traders. Awkward. Awkward. But even though she's descended from Spanish slave traders, she's still in favor of reparations. But I believe she feels she should be ex…
