- 0:04Speaker 1: Thomas wishing everyone a very happy Tuesday and always looking
- 0:06Speaker 1: forward to this time a week. We have appointment listening
- 0:08Speaker 1: here in the morning show. One of them is right now.
- 0:10Speaker 1: We call it the breit Bart Inside Scoop, and today
- 0:13Speaker 1: happy to welcome back to the bright Bart Inside Scoop
- 0:15Speaker 1: in the fifty five krc Morning Show Breitbart's tech editor
- 0:18Speaker 1: Colin May nine. And of course, as I always say
- 0:20Speaker 1: before we start talking, book mark this site b R
- 0:23Speaker 1: E I T b a art dot com. Welcome back, Colin.
- 0:26Speaker 1: It's always great having you on the show. Happy to
- 0:28Speaker 1: be here, Brian, and sort of welcome to the city
- 0:31Speaker 1: of Since then, I know, it's a virtual class. Anybody
- 0:34Speaker 1: in America or wherever, whoever you're listening, whoever you're listening
- 0:36Speaker 1: to my voice, including Germany, Steve, Good morning again. Empower
- 0:40Speaker 1: you America dot org. A virtual class. Just register ahead
- 0:43Speaker 1: of time, log in at seven pm because Colinen, Collin's
- 0:46Speaker 1: got to be talking about technology and artificial intelligence and
- 0:49Speaker 1: what's coming our way with a question mark after that,
- 0:51Speaker 1: what is coming our way?
- 0:52Speaker 2: Colin?
- 0:55Speaker 3: Well, Brian, you know they kind of they kind of
- 0:58Speaker 3: put me under the microscope with that headline, because anyone
- 1:01Speaker 3: who says with complete confidence they knows what's coming is
- 1:05Speaker 3: lying to you, you know, right. I like to say,
- 1:08Speaker 3: I don't even really write a speech because if you
- 1:11Speaker 3: write a speech about AI, it's going to be out
- 1:14Speaker 3: of date by the time you give it. Yeah, no question.
- 1:17Speaker 1: That's like technology generally speaking. Man, I'm old enough to
- 1:20Speaker 1: remember having to learn MS DOS to deal with, you know,
- 1:24Speaker 1: with computers, and I learned basic when I was in
- 1:28Speaker 1: K through twelve education. And you know, fast forward to today.
- 1:31Speaker 1: We have moved at light speed and every day you
- 1:33Speaker 1: wake up something has dramatically changed. So the world is
- 1:36Speaker 1: crazy with technology. So I certainly get your point on that.
- 1:40Speaker 1: And artificial intelligence is going to be the most moving
- 1:42Speaker 1: target out there. I mean, I read articles where we're
- 1:44Speaker 1: all going to be unemployed. AI is putting everybody out
- 1:47Speaker 1: of a job. To no, no, no, the human element
- 1:49Speaker 1: will never be replaced. And of course, the only thing
- 1:53Speaker 1: I think it is immune from some impact by AI.
- 1:55Speaker 1: And you can feel free to chime in on this generalized,
- 1:57Speaker 1: generalized statement trades. AI can't install plumbing or electric or
- 2:03Speaker 1: along those lines, So maybe that's the one area of
- 2:06Speaker 1: refuge from AI. But your response to that, Colin, well,
- 2:11Speaker 1: in large.
- 2:12Speaker 3: In part, I agree with that. You know, AI cannot
- 2:17Speaker 3: do the trades. They can't fix your plumbing, et cetera.
- 2:20Speaker 3: They can't lay you know, they can't do the electrical
- 2:23Speaker 3: wiring that they need for their data centers.
- 2:25Speaker 2: So that would be the view of Nvidia CEO.
- 2:29Speaker 3: Johnson Wong that you know there's going to be an
- 2:32Speaker 3: explosion of jobs in the trades.
- 2:33Speaker 2: And related to the trades.
- 2:36Speaker 3: You know, certainly the powers that be want AI to
- 2:41Speaker 3: do those things. They envision the future, and this would
- 2:45Speaker 3: be elon mush for example, where robots do everything. So
- 2:49Speaker 3: you know it's not AI necessarily that turning the wrench
- 2:54Speaker 3: on that pipe, but it's a robot controlled by AI.
- 2:58Speaker 3: That's directly you get determinators and you know our party.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Colin, I literally just got done writing Fighting Wars for
- 3:08Speaker 1: us when you said that. It's the first thing that
- 3:10Speaker 1: came to my mind anyhow, Right.
- 3:13Speaker 3: So you know that's there's certainly some of these people
- 3:17Speaker 3: working towards that. I'm a big believer in the human
- 3:20Speaker 3: element because I see a lot of problems with AI,
- 3:24Speaker 3: and I don't you know, I don't believe that the
- 3:28Speaker 3: proper application is trying to replace humanity and have us all,
- 3:32Speaker 3: you know, sitting on virtual reality, eating crickets and smoking wheed.
- 3:38Speaker 3: You know, that's frankly what Silicon Valley wants for our
- 3:41Speaker 3: children and grandchildren. You and I don't want that. For
- 3:44Speaker 3: our chance. Our children and grandchildren.
- 3:46Speaker 1: Get are stipend from government for buying food. Otherwise it's
- 3:49Speaker 1: naval contemplation and poetry writing for all of you. Interesting,
- 3:54Speaker 1: But you mentioned problems, and you know, depending on people's
- 3:58Speaker 1: perceptions of what AI represents in terms of problems, I
- 4:01Speaker 1: think a lot of it springs largely from at least
- 4:03Speaker 1: from you know, my listeners standpoint, a lot of people
- 4:06Speaker 1: who are concerned about AI. You know, the whole garbage in,
- 4:09Speaker 1: garbage out philosophy that who's programming it has sort of
- 4:14Speaker 1: pre programmed an implicit bias towards things that might not
- 4:18Speaker 1: sit well politically, ethically, or morally with a lot of
- 4:20Speaker 1: people out there that might use AI. How do we
- 4:23Speaker 1: address that component.
- 4:26Speaker 3: That's a tremendous problem. And there's two forms of bias
- 4:31Speaker 3: for one, you know, as if one wasn't bad enough. Brian, So,
- 4:34Speaker 3: first of all, you know, we have the bias of
- 4:38Speaker 3: the people making the AI. You know, pro tip there's
- 4:43Speaker 3: not a lot of red hats in sitting in open
- 4:47Speaker 3: AI and meta right.
- 4:49Speaker 2: And right shocking. He gets not the HR for doing that.
- 4:56Speaker 3: So how that impacts things is AI almost works in
- 5:02Speaker 3: two stages. It formulates answers and then it sort of
- 5:05Speaker 3: checks those answers against almost.
- 5:08Speaker 2: The rules for behavior. Here's how I'm supposed to act.
- 5:11Speaker 3: Okay, And so those very biased progressive leftists create those
- 5:16Speaker 3: rules for how you're supposed to act. That causes AI
- 5:19Speaker 3: to do a lot of wacky things, like when Google.
- 5:22Speaker 3: You know, one of the infamous moments in recent AI
- 5:25Speaker 3: history was Google launched the Gemini Gemini AI image creator.
- 5:31Speaker 3: One of the rules that Google set for that tool.
- 5:34Speaker 2: Was make everything diverse.
- 5:36Speaker 3: You know, it doesn't matter.
- 5:37Speaker 2: What they asked for, make it diverse. To hope.
- 5:39Speaker 3: People said, you know, make a picture of founding fathers,
- 5:42Speaker 3: and you got Asian founding fathers, Black founding fathers.
- 5:46Speaker 1: Black George Washington, if I recall correctly, it generated that one.
- 5:49Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, make a picture of Nazis and
- 5:52Speaker 3: you got Indian Nazis. You know, like it was doing
- 5:55Speaker 3: what it was programmed to do the other portion. And
- 5:59Speaker 3: this is another form of bias is AI operates off
- 6:03Speaker 3: training data. You know, you know, imagine your hard drive
- 6:07Speaker 3: at home times ten million. Okay, that's the amount of
- 6:12Speaker 3: training data these things work with. It's not much more.
- 6:16Speaker 3: And that training data is not sort of clean factual data.
- 6:21Speaker 3: For example, they love to use Reddit to train oh no,
- 6:25Speaker 3: to train these things, and you I did from your
- 6:28Speaker 3: action you know who's on Reddit?
- 6:29Speaker 1: Oh my god.
- 6:30Speaker 3: Well, we don't want the generation, the next generation to
- 6:33Speaker 3: become since all day on Reddit, that's being sucked into
- 6:37Speaker 3: AI as factual, good info and it's operating on that.
- 6:42Speaker 3: So you now see there's sort of two forms of
- 6:45Speaker 3: bias in one.
- 6:47Speaker 1: Well that kind of goes back to my garbage in
- 6:49Speaker 1: garbage out, because one of the other components is erroneous
- 6:52Speaker 1: information that not only would you have biased information if
- 6:55Speaker 1: you're just looking at Reddit. Not only there's random musings,
- 6:58Speaker 1: people with sphincters we all got one, and offering their
- 7:00Speaker 1: thoughts and comments on any given topic. But you know,
- 7:03Speaker 1: when it comes to generating what we hope are is
- 7:06Speaker 1: legitimate content, like for example, the many times stupid lawyers
- 7:10Speaker 1: relied on AI generated briefs and then come to find
- 7:14Speaker 1: out when they go to court to judge, you know,
- 7:15Speaker 1: fund them in contempt because the cases that are cited
- 7:17Speaker 1: in the AI generated brief are fake. They are whole
- 7:21Speaker 1: cloth made up. How can that even be?
- 7:24Speaker 3: There's actually, you know, I love talking about this with you, Brian,
- 7:28Speaker 3: because you're a lot background. There's actually now a worst
- 7:31Speaker 3: case where a person on appeal not only did they
- 7:35Speaker 3: have made up cases and stuff, but they made up
- 7:38Speaker 3: from whole cloth. The AI made up from whole cloth
- 7:41Speaker 3: quotes and statements that the prosecutor as supposed to know,
- 7:46Speaker 3: and they're defamatory. They basically said, look how evil and
- 7:49Speaker 3: wrong this prosecutor is when they said quote unquote and
- 7:53Speaker 3: it was not in the record.
- 7:54Speaker 1: It's just oh my god. So yeah, there's other lawyers
- 8:00Speaker 1: out they're reacting an equal shock on that one that
- 8:01Speaker 1: I have Geese Louise making up the lower court record.
- 8:06Speaker 2: Wow.
- 8:07Speaker 3: So, Brian, you know one of the things I want
- 8:09Speaker 3: to do tonight with empower you and I think this
- 8:11Speaker 3: is really valuable for people is I'm in the front
- 8:15Speaker 3: line to this right.
- 8:16Speaker 2: I'm dealing with the.
- 8:17Speaker 3: News every day and what that's enabled me to do
- 8:20Speaker 3: is kind of create some baseline concepts that can help
- 8:25Speaker 3: you understand the news about AI. So I'll just share
- 8:29Speaker 3: one right now because it goes to what you're talking about.
- 8:32Speaker 3: It's very very clear that when people use AI to
- 8:36Speaker 3: replace themselves or human activity in a final product like
- 8:41Speaker 3: a legal filing, a letter, anything like that, people don't
- 8:46Speaker 3: even read that before they turn it in. Oh my lord,
- 8:51Speaker 3: it's good, and they turn it in. So that lawyer,
- 8:53Speaker 3: it would never you know, no matter how many lawyers
- 8:55Speaker 3: get busted for this, it never occurs to the lawyer, Hey,
- 8:59Speaker 3: I ought to have my in your associate check, you know,
- 9:02Speaker 3: Brian Thomas v. Collin, and make sure that case actually exists. Right,
- 9:06Speaker 3: They just they just say the machine said it. The
- 9:08Speaker 3: machine is God. I'm turning it in. And so that
- 9:12Speaker 3: happens with kids, that happens with lawyers, that happens with
- 9:16Speaker 3: everyone in between.
- 9:17Speaker 1: But you know, the mind blowing thing about that. I
- 9:19Speaker 1: hate to do one of the legal aspects of this,
- 9:20Speaker 1: and maybe a little bit weed dwelling, but a case
- 9:23Speaker 1: cited in anything generated for me, I'm going to have
- 9:25Speaker 1: to look at it anyway, just to find out if
- 9:26Speaker 1: it's still valid case law. Not that I would even
- 9:29Speaker 1: think first off, that they how could something that's supposed
- 9:32Speaker 1: to be intelligent whole cloth create a case that never
- 9:36Speaker 1: even existed in law books. Now, that seems to be
- 9:38Speaker 1: a glitch that should be easily solvable by our you know,
- 9:40Speaker 1: intellectual lords and masters putting this together. But I would
- 9:44Speaker 1: first go and grab that case and want to run
- 9:46Speaker 1: through shepherds to find out whether it's still case law
- 9:49Speaker 1: that's valid or has been overturned by some other decision,
- 9:52Speaker 1: because there's no guarantee that they've run it through that
- 9:54Speaker 1: process and generating the original brief.
- 9:58Speaker 2: Brian, you're so last center.
- 10:00Speaker 3: I just can't deal with.
- 10:01Speaker 2: People like you.
- 10:03Speaker 3: So let me add one guy a little more feel
- 10:07Speaker 3: to the fire story is we're not when when we're
- 10:10Speaker 3: talking about this happening, Brian, we're almost never talking about like,
- 10:15Speaker 3: you know, just out.
- 10:15Speaker 2: Of law school of people, and it's like a say, like.
- 10:19Speaker 3: A you know, a minor traffic accident kind of case,
- 10:22Speaker 3: right right, This is happening on gigantic stages. This is happening.
- 10:27Speaker 3: One of the classic cases this has happened is a
- 10:30Speaker 3: major mega law firm doing Walmart and you know, the
- 10:35Speaker 3: judge called them out on it. They had to remove
- 10:38Speaker 3: the one of their partners from the case, and I
- 10:40Speaker 3: think they lost the case against Walmart eventually in part
- 10:43Speaker 3: because you know, they had this stain on them of
- 10:46Speaker 3: doing these fake filings. And so you know, that's not
- 10:48Speaker 3: a one man firm, that's not Matt Locke messing up
- 10:51Speaker 3: a case or something. Right, this is you have a
- 10:54Speaker 3: million people in suits and no one can check that
- 10:57Speaker 3: that citation.
- 10:58Speaker 1: And billing the out of fifteen hundred dollars or more
- 11:00Speaker 1: an hour, good gig.
- 11:03Speaker 2: If you can get it well.
- 11:04Speaker 1: And then pivoting over to something even more profound, and
- 11:07Speaker 1: I think probably more people can connect with the idea
- 11:09Speaker 1: that AI is certainly going to be used in the
- 11:12Speaker 1: field of medicine, and the idea that a erroneous diagnosis,
- 11:17Speaker 1: an erroneous treatment protocol, or something is relied upon, maybe
- 11:21Speaker 1: by a physician who's looking for a little help trying
- 11:23Speaker 1: to figure out his patient's disease state, might rely on
- 11:26Speaker 1: something that could ultimately prove to be I don't know,
- 11:28Speaker 1: even fatal to a patient.
- 11:31Speaker 3: Right. So, you know, this is a concern I've actually
- 11:34Speaker 3: talked to with my son about. So my son is
- 11:38Speaker 3: graduating college, he's going to medical school to no, you know,
- 11:43Speaker 3: neither of us have any concern that you know, by
- 11:47Speaker 3: the time he's out there will be no doctors.
- 11:49Speaker 2: She'll just get a doctor. AI.
- 11:51Speaker 3: We don't lose a minute of sleep about that, right, right,
- 11:53Speaker 3: So what we do, what we have talked about is
- 11:58Speaker 3: you know, how will that be used? And there's no
- 12:01Speaker 3: question AI has some great applications clearly in medicine, so
- 12:08Speaker 3: ranging from drug research because it can sit there all
- 12:11Speaker 3: day and all night running numbers and checking things and
- 12:16Speaker 3: flagging the humans.
- 12:17Speaker 2: Hey, this might work. It can.
- 12:19Speaker 3: Also it has a lot of applications and things like
- 12:23Speaker 3: reading you know, X rays and.
- 12:27Speaker 1: I agree, CT scans, MRIs. They could probably identify tumorous
- 12:31Speaker 1: things or little things that may be overlook by a
- 12:33Speaker 1: human being. I get that, and of course what positions to.
- 12:36Speaker 3: Brian, there's actually it's funny because when you look at
- 12:39Speaker 3: test results scans, AI is good at catching certain things,
- 12:44Speaker 3: but humans.
- 12:44Speaker 2: Are better at catching very experienced.
- 12:47Speaker 3: Right, So that's why they should work together. AI should
- 12:49Speaker 3: always help us, not replace us. But like to your point,
- 12:53Speaker 3: one of the problems with AI, and it goes to
- 12:57Speaker 3: the same thing with the lawyers, is people assume the
- 13:00Speaker 3: AI is right when the AI is basically a moron
- 13:03Speaker 3: that has a huge database and can google that right,
- 13:07Speaker 3: So we doctors are going to have to be trained
- 13:11Speaker 3: how to use it and how not to say, well
- 13:15Speaker 3: the computer said this, so it's this exactly. Well, that
- 13:18Speaker 3: will not be true no matter how much the technology
- 13:21Speaker 3: advances learning.
- 13:22Speaker 1: As a learning prager, we'll have to.
- 13:25Speaker 3: Use it as a friend and a support, not a
- 13:28Speaker 3: not a replacement.
- 13:29Speaker 1: Seven PM log in only empower your America Dot or
- 13:32Speaker 1: just register ahead of time and enjoy what Colin has
- 13:33Speaker 1: to say and learn a lot. And finally, before we've
- 13:35Speaker 1: part company here real quickly, I note that from the
- 13:38Speaker 1: notes that you're going to addressing the ideas for the
- 13:40Speaker 1: conservative movement to master AI for its own purposes. Briefly,
- 13:44Speaker 1: where's that going, Colin?
- 13:47Speaker 3: Well, what that's all about is we're behind on the
- 13:51Speaker 3: left because the left made this stuff. So we have
- 13:54Speaker 3: to quickly put together, you know, some framework of how
- 13:58Speaker 3: we're going to use AI and not just you know,
- 14:01Speaker 3: the answer is not to just be a latite who
- 14:04Speaker 3: doesn't use it, because you're using it today even if
- 14:06Speaker 3: you don't know it, if you call your credit card company.
- 14:09Speaker 1: I know.
- 14:09Speaker 3: But but you know, we can use it effectively for
- 14:14Speaker 3: our ends, but it's mostly not falling into the traps,
- 14:19Speaker 3: you knows, not falling, not falling into the danger zones
- 14:23Speaker 3: where we brought our brains, especially for young people.
- 14:26Speaker 1: That's why we have you. Collum Adine, Tech editor, Breitbart
