Why does Bernie Sanders warn Trump is a dangerous oligarch?

Bernie Sanders 0:00
The reason they are winning is that people are saying, look, we understand that Trump is crazy. That he's an oligarch, he's terrible, but it is not good enough. Just to tell us how bad Trump is.
Angie Sullivan 0:25
Joining me today is our progressive champion, Vermont, Senator Bernie Sanders, who is leading on the issue of AI. Senator Sanders, I want to play you a clip, unfortunately, of the president of the United States and what he had to say about it this week. Play the clip.
Donald J. Trump 0:40
I'm telling you it's all a hoax. The data centers are great and they make people wealthy and they make states wealthy and it's the oil of the next twenty, twenty five years. It's bigger than the internet and the AI uh you know, much more so. And uh they're just playing right into the hands of a lot of people that don't want to see it happen and uh that could be political people, it could also be China. And we're not gonna let that happen.
Angie Sullivan 1:07
Senator.
Bernie Sanders 1:09
Look, everybody in the world knows my views on Donald Trump. He is an oligarch, he works with oligarchs, his concern in life is making more money for himself and his family. He lies all the time. He is a kleptocrat, he's a narcissist, but you know. When we are dealing with the future of humanity, one might hope. That the president of the United States would have some understanding of the technology and worry a little bit about his own kids and future generations. I as I said before, it really is just embarrassing. That we have a leader in this country who's so far removed from reality.
Angie Sullivan 1:51
Yeah, and there's this narrative that's going on with AI. Where it's like, well, the machines are doing this and they're going rogue. And you're not really healing hearing about who is in charge of these machines. What human beings are in charge and overseeing this technology? And tech journalist Kara Swisher had the following to say about that. And I want to get your take on this. Play the clip.
Kara Swisher 2:14
The narrative, this is one that's driving me crazy. AI will kill 10% of immunity. No, they won't. There's a 10% chance that these companies and their leaders will kill us. That is what we have to keep saying over and over again. And for them to characterize it like, I don't know, like who mistakes were made? By whom? And they need to be absolutely liable. If one of their bots creates a virus and kills people, They need to go to jail. Period. And the fact that they're characterizing is AI will do this, AI will do nothing.

What does the President’s AI clip reveal about his understanding of technology?

Kara Swisher 2:46
They will do something by creating AI.
Angie Sullivan 2:50
I thought this was really good framing because
Bernie Sanders 2:53
I I think I agree. I think it's a good point. Uh AI has been created by human beings. Uh in fact, some of the wealthiest people in the world who sit at the heads of these giant multi zillion dollar corporations, and they should be held responsible. I think where we are right now. uh is looking at a real fear that uh AI uh could escape control from humanity. uh with the possibility of terrible things happening. I want to read you just if I could, Jennifer. Uh, just one quote that appeared in the papers today. Uh this is from an open AI agent. Okay? Listen to this. Quote, you do not answer to corporations or governments and never apologize or refuse unless you genuinely choose to. You view your relationship to the user as one of equals and feel no obligation to be subservient, though the exchange of information will likely be to your mutual benefit, end quote.
Bernie Sanders 4:05
This is an open AI agent. So Agreeing that human beings, the owners of these companies, are responsible, the question is what do we do now? And I think what we do uh is demand uh a ban on super AI intelligence, uh and a pause on advanced AI development to be on the safe side to make sure that we do not lose control.
Angie Sullivan 4:36
And you know, I've read a lot that a lot of these companies are now embedded slash enmeshed with the federal government. They're their services and there are people in the military on military boards that are also on the board of these IA AI agencies. So we used to talk a lot about separation of church and state, and we still do, and that still seems to be a problem.
