Sleepwalking Into Disaster

We are sleepwalking into disaster. Computer scientist Stuart Russell, who wrote one of the top college textbooks on artificial intelligence, says, ‘We are looking at 80% unemployment due to AI.’”

Here, Greg Hunter discusses this looming calamity with Hajnen Payson, who operates the YouTube channel AI News & Strategy. “This could be nightmarish. . ..,” says Payson. “Where is this going? Nobody really knows. . .. Never in recorded history have we been at a crossroads like this.”

There is much more in the 62-minute interview on Hunter’s channel USAWatchdog.com.

Colbert: Still Lying Like A Dog

Stephen Colbert recently claimed that he couldn’t air an interview with Texas state Rep. James Talarico on his TV show because Trump’s FCC would censor it. But that’s a LIE, Glenn Beck says, and he has the receipts. Glenn explains exactly what really happened.

How is a bald-faced, lying son of a bitch like Colbert still on the air? He should have been given the hook months ago! Here’s more from Glenn Beck.

Chinese AI Now All The Rage

Is Hollywood doomed?

ByteDance, the Chinese parent company of TikTok, released their new AI video engine called Seedance, which is so realistic that some are saying you can’t even tell the difference between a movie and AI anymore.

In previous AI models, you could only make 10-second clips. Now, some creators are making sequences so seamless that they’re over 2 minutes long. What does this mean for Hollywood or news reporting? Could it be used to make fake videos of people, as well?

Join Ben Chasteen and Rob Counts on this Edge of Wonder Live as they cover all of this.

Don’t Post Your Nudes Online!

A man is going to prison for hacking college girls’ Snapchat accounts, getting their nudes and selling them. And apparently it’s quite a racket.

Artificial ‘Intelligence’?

If you have spent any real time with Large Language Model (LLM) AI systems like Grok or ChatGPT, you probably know the pattern:
‘OMG this is AMAZING!’
‘Okay, not ‘amazing’ but still really useful!’
‘Can come in handy sometimes.’
‘I probably should double-check all of this.’
‘REALLY?’

Here’s a new edition of The Right Angle, with Steve Green joined by Bill Whittle and Scott Ott.

Newspapers Now Obsolete?

As Scott Ott asks, ’How many times are we gonna have to rescue this dame?’ After yet another bailout attempt, The Washington Post has announced a leaner, more accurate version of itself is in the works.

But the bigger question isn’t about the Post so much as it is about the entire idea of a ‘newspaper.’

Have they already gone the way of the Dry Goods Store without even realizing it? Here’s a new edition of The Right Angle, with Ott leading the discussion, and Bill Whittle and Steve Green joining in.

His Next Step, Mr. Sensitive?

We all know how the CIA and Rockefeller Foundation try to silently influence culture by supporting content creators to push new technologies or social trends.

But what happens when those supporters and creators collide? Who handles the censorship? How can you have a nuanced conversation when different parties have arrived at a log jam?

Here’s a case study from Mike Benz. The focus is on Bill Gates and his synthetic meat, and Elon Musk and his Martian rockets, as well as the biggest YouTuber around –Mr. Beast.

Media’s Anti-ICE Saint A Heel!

The Minneapolis incident involving Alex Pretti gets dissected as new footage emerges showing what really happened during his confrontation with ICE agents. Multiple camera angles reveal Pretti kicking a federal vehicle, breaking a taillight, spitting at agents, and allegedly taunting them before being tackled—details conveniently omitted from mainstream media coverage.

Meanwhile, Democrat politicians treat him as a martyr, with senators calling the site “holy ground” and celebrities rushing to condemn ICE. The narrative unravels further as comedian Andrew Schulz makes false claims about warrants, activists suddenly want police body cameras banned now that they’re capturing inconvenient footage, and Bruce Springsteen releases a cringe protest song.

ABC News deceptively edits the new footage to make it look like agents attacked an innocent bystander, proving once again how far the media will go to protect their preferred narrative. Here’s more from Mark Dice.

No Friggin’ Way This Is Real

We all know the cable news is phony as all hell. It’s so undeniably leftist and contrived that you have to wonder whether CIA speechwriters concoct every last story line.

Need proof? Compare and contrast how the media has portrayed deportations done by the Trump administration vs. those conducted by former President Barack Obama.

You can no longer describe channels like CNN or MSNBC as anything but fake news. They serve as propaganda outfits for the Democrats — no more, no less. Here’s from the Liberal Hivemind.
