This morning I had a peanut butter and chocolate smoothie for breakfast. Okay, here's clip two. Hey, this is Jack Recider. This morning I had a peanut butter and chocolate smoothie for breakfast. Okay, punch in your votes. Ready for me to tell you? Both clips were AI-generated. In fact, what you're hearing right now is AI-generated too. I switched to having AI talk for me a few minutes back.

I just type whatever I want, and it'll narrate it for me. It's really wild. It even adds in breaths like this. Listen. And sometimes it'll even add plosives, like how the P sounds in nope. It's crazy how good this sounds. Huh. Okay, okay. I'll switch back to my normal voice now. There is... I'm using my real voice now, okay? The future is going to be weird, isn't it?

Okay, so I just saw this article the other day on CNN's website. And it said there was this guy working for a company in Hong Kong who controlled the finances for that company. And he got invited to a video call with the CEO and a few other colleagues that he recognized. And he saw them on the screen. He heard their voices. And he was positive it was the CEO and his colleagues.

And he was positive it was the CEO and his colleagues.

And they were telling him there's this new deal that just finished up. And they wanted him to send $25 million to another company. So he did. But the problem was the video and the voices were all AI clones. Scammers tricked him into thinking he was on a video call with the CEO. And our future is almost surely not going to be what we think it's going to be.

I have a feeling we're going to have a hard time knowing what's reality and what's fiction.

Hmm, I think this is a good idea. If you can cryptographically sign something, then that'll prove the message or video came from you. So I imagine this could cut down on people falling for fakes. If it's not actually signed by the person who sent it, don't trust it. Initially getting your key would be interesting though. You still have to prove who you are at the beginning, right?

And one way to do that is to verify who you are in the meat space, the real world. When you're face-to-face and in person, it's still a valid verification technique. that you are you. But with everyone having their own cryptographic keys to prove someone is real, the threat then moves to securing the key.

If someone else grabbed a key, they could make it look like you sent something when really you didn't. They just signed it using your key.

I just imagine like making a whole CAPTCHA network for everyone I know, right? So my dad calls me on the phone and it says, before you can connect to this party, please solve this CAPTCHA.

I personally am excited about our future. We are smarter than ever and more advanced than ever. And it feels like the human race is going through a Cambrian explosion of sorts with all new technologies and advancements popping off almost daily. We're living in the exponential era. Time will move faster from here on out, and we get to witness it. We have tickets to watch the birth of Human 2.0.
