Explain for those people. It just sets off the technology. So if I'm good at AI, I can get into a nuclear plant and unleash a nuclear weapon. If I want to interfere with democracy or voting, create fakes. And some of them are very good. You can't tell the difference. They're only going to get better. So AI, in principle, could cause human extinction. That's the fear.

And unfortunately, our technological evolution has outpaced our spiritual evolution or emotional evolution. You know, technology is way ahead of our spiritual evolution and our emotion. That's a very dangerous combination. Tribal minds, medieval minds, and modern capacities. Drones. I mean, it's legit now to kill a head of state using drone technology. I was in Davos. Really? Oh, yeah. Yeah.

I mean, what did the Israelis do? They got rid of all the Iranian, you know, leaders. How? Drones. All run by air. So while I was in Davos and Zelensky was, you know, his motorcade was going by, there were about seven trucks interfering with... air signals on the internet so somebody wouldn't kill him with a drone because people are doing that.

It just happened with Iran and it's happening with the Houthis. Even they have access to AI with drones and they can drown an intercontinental ballistic missile. So that's the danger. I sat on a committee with the UN and somebody else and they were talking about this doomsday And I was on Zoom, so while they were talking, I went on AI and said, give me a way to prevent the misuse of AI.

Can we program the misuse of AI through AI? And it gave me two pages on how it could be done. What did it say? Oh, it said we can build in algorithms that will interfere with anything that's diabolical or unethical. We can create algorithms. But then people have to agree. and a lot of special interest groups who make money with war and terrorism on every side. They don't want that.

They don't want peace, okay? They don't want that because this is what gives them their power. But right now there's an initiative at the UN, and I'm participating with that, is AI for good, AI for humanity, AI for reversing climate change, AI for addressing chronic disease. And when you really go into the depths of this, with AI, we can reverse climate change. There are five things we need to do.

You can reverse climate change. You can create prosperity. You can resolve conflicts. You can eliminate chronic disease. You can do gene editing. You can do epigenetic modulation. You can reduce inflammation. In other words, the time is coming where disease, you don't have to die of a disease. You can choose the moment of your death through Mahasamadhi, which is what our tradition says.

You know, you should live long, healthy, and then die peacefully, been there, done that, next incarnation, and even plan that. AI gives you all the information if you ask for it. You see Sam Altman's quote there?
