If Denver would roll Aramonic Intelligence and I beg the War Room Posse's pardon for bringing another shadow on an already dark day.

Do you think you are free?

But...

I've been accused of being a fear monger.

I think that that would only be an accurate accusation if you are in fact a chicken.

Look, it's obvious that any of these technologists dreams, whether it's Elon Musk or Peter Thiel, or even the more gentle souls, such as Dario on a day or Mustafa Suleiman, who we heard in the opening clip, if any of them see their vision of the future come to realization, absolutely.

We all end up living in hell.

But we're not there yet, and there is enormous force behind the resistance to this technological system and the acceptance of these technologies as normal in our lives.

In Florida, I've had the pleasure of speaking to and speaking for the Florida Citizens Alliance, who are putting forward bills to age-gate the technology so that children under 18 will not be exposed to it, so that parents who send their children to public schools must opt in for their children to use AI rather than to opt out.

It's not the default.

and they're pushing for more data privacy for children.

That's one group in one state.

In Missouri, you have a bill being pushed forward by Phil Amato to block any kind of personhood, legal recognition,

of AI as an owner, as a manager, as a voting citizen.

Now, this might seem crazy,

But these are the sorts of issues that we are going to be dealing with in the near future.

There is massive resistance at the state level.

And at the federal level, you have people like Josh Hawley and Richard Blumenthal who are pushing to at least restrain the worst effects of these AI systems.

I think that even outside that legal framework, even outside the possibility that the government will protect us from these systems, you have personal choice.

You have the ability of groups to decide communal norms to say that these technologies are not acceptable.
