How does the rise of AI, robots, and a possible apocalypse relate to ancient warnings?
I am unashamed. What about you?
Well welcome back to the Unashamed Podcast. Here we are again, it's Friday, Hillsdale. Friday with Hillsdale and we're taking these courses for free. We're right now taking the Odyssey, so I feel like I'm kinda almost kinda back in college 'cause I actually took a uh um I took an English class that had a little bit of this in it. I didn't take a full class on this though. So this is a full class just on the Odyssey. You can take it for free with us at Unashaped for Hillsdale dot com. And uh I know uh John Luke, I know you're getting into it 'cause I'm getting like late night texts from John Luke about different fantasy books. Am I reading them? And you you sent me one and you said, Are you read what was the book?
Hyperion. Hyperion. He's a good thing. He read her text because I'm not in this. No, this is not a new. No, no, this is a private text. Have you read Hyperion and At first I was like, Oh, it must be something like in the wheelhouse of theology, philosophy. And I looked it up and I'm like, No, I I haven't read that. What made you ask me that? 'Cause we never connected because you were on the road and I never called you back.
I know, you 'cause I said I said, Call me, I'm driving and you said, How long you be in the car? I said, fifteen minutes and just no response.
Zach said, I'm too busy for fifteen minutes.
Uh huh. It was probably
we call we call that getting Zacked.
Yeah. You know you got Zacked. I thought it wasn't even late. I thought he might be at church because it was a Wednesday night.
It was. I was at church. I I
assumed you were at house church. Yeah. I was. I gave you the benefit of the channel. I
forgot to call you back when everybody left.
I wasn't though. I was driving in the car. Um No, it's about a it's about theology, it's about AI, it's about the end times, it's about temptation, the antichrist. It's just it's got it's all the things you're into. That's why I ask. Is it like
uh
is it like
Fate predestination Oh gosh, it's got it all in there. It's got it all. Yeah. Yeah, I'll probably have some thoughts on that. Zach's licking his lips
right now. You will have thoughts. That's what I'm saying. You will have thoughts on it. It's a good fiction book written in like the I think it was in the nineties. And talking about artificial intelligence in the nineties? Oh, and it's exactly what like I think where we're going. Interesting. Yeah.
I mean you need to go back and watch the Terminator series. They they this AI stuff, we've been fear fearing this for decades. Well I know
that I know that's my biggest fear, by the way, is is with the AI explosion. She'll get so mad when I talk about this, by the way. I can't even I I literally cannot talk about it anymore at the house. But my biggest
it's okay.
No, she doesn't listen to this. Uh but uh My biggest fear is the Terminator. Like there's that these robots that you know, they're we're gonna have robots and th and then I read that paper by um by uh Bill Gates and that's one of the things that he was predicting was like these robots that that are
No, once you read Hyperion it's way worse. What could happen with AI is way worse than robots. I'm
gonna this is what I wanna develop is a little handheld EMP
Mm-hmm.
You know, you guys know what that is?
Yeah. Yeah. It's like shuts everything down. It's an
electronic magnetic pulse. If you if you watch the there's a a show uh where they can hit it and it shuts down all the Everything electronic. But if you have a EMP Then if the robots are coming for you, you could hit the button and it and there it just disables all robots.
Yeah.
In a in in a in a uh typical like a in a a specific area. Unless they unless they build Faraday cages in the robots, then I don't know. I haven't got a solution for
it. Let's run the idea through Chat GPT and see what it tells us. No, that's see they already run through Chat GT. That's how they'll build their defense.
I've never thought about
robots taking over the world. Maybe I'm just maybe I'm the outer. There's a
lot look, I'll I'll tell you this. There's a lot of people that I talk to that I would not that have not typically been the doomsday prepper types.
