Let's start with where we are right now. Folks are very familiar now with ChatGPT and its competitors, which includes Quad and my favorite, of course, Gemini from Google and a number of others. And people are amazed that this stuff can write better than certainly I can. They can do songs, they can even write code. So what happens next?

The next big change is in the development of what are called agents. And an agent is something which is in a little loop that learns something. So you build an agent that can do the equivalent of a travel agent. Well, it learns how to do travel agents. The key thing about agents is that you can concatenate them. You give it an English command and it gives you an English result.

And so then you can take that result and put it into the next agent. And with that, you can design a building, design a ship, design a bomb, whatever.

So are we the dogs to their humanity? Will ultimately AI be our overlords? I certainly hope not. The theoretical argument is that computers are running the world and we're the dogs. That's unlikely. A much more likely scenario, which I do worry about, is that the concentration of power that a dictator type person, sort of an autocrat type person, can accumulate under the guise of efficiency

can also restrict liberty. At the key point is what we call technically recursive self-improvement when it can begin to improve itself. We better have a really good way of watching what this thing is doing. And if you think about it for a while, the only way to watch what it's doing is to have another AI system watching it because people won't be able to follow it fast enough.

Well, wouldn't that be great to know, Maria? But they destroyed all the documents on their way out. So, again, this whole thing was propped up I JUST THINK YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT THE ARC OF THE STORY HERE. THE JANUARY 6TH COMMITTEE WAS SET UP FOR THE VERY SPECIFIC PURPOSE OF GIVING SOMEBODY LIKE JACK SMITH THE REASON TO GO CHARGE PRESIDENT TRUMP AND TAKE HIM OUT POLITICALLY. THAT'S THE WHOLE THING.
