AI Expert STUART RUSSELL, exposes the trillion-dollar AI race, why governments won’t regulate, how AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) could replace humans by 2030, and why probably only a nuclear-level AI catastrophe will wake us up
Professor Stuart Russell O.B.E. is a world-renowned AI expert and Computer Science Professor at UC Berkeley. He holds the Smith-Zadeh Chair in Engineering and directs the Center for Human-Compatible AI, and is also the bestselling author of the book “Human Compatible: AI and the Problem of Control".
He explains: ◼️What the “gorilla problem” reveals about our future under superintelligent AI ◼️How governments are outfunded by Big Tech ◼️Why current AI systems already lie and self-preserve ◼️The radical solution he’s spent a decade building to make AI safe ◼️The myth of ‘pulling the plug’ and why AI won’t be that easy to stop
It appears that by allowing a commercial race to build AI, we are building our very own extinction level event - finance dictates how Artificial Intelligence is developed. Here is Prof. Stuart Russell, the man who wrote the book on AI some three decades ago, explaining what the dangers are and what we might be able to do about it in this late stage of the game.
Here is an excellent documentation of the reality of ongoing climate geoengineering efforts and what those efforts mean for our health, for targeting whole countries as an instrument of warfare and for the future of the human race.
I am not qualified to judge this, but coauthor Willie Soon is a retired Harvard professor, and Jane Orient is a very astutue physician who follows this subject closely.
Climate science as promoted by the IPCC is pure bunk, not based on facts. Parts of this have been known for a while. It is good to see this put together with scientific references ...
What happened to General William McCasland, the former commander of the Air Force Research Laboratory whose name surfaced in the Podesta UFO emails?
Was one of the most powerful scientific leaders in the U.S. Air Force connected to research into recovered UFO technology?
In this episode of Dreamland, we explore the career, responsibilities, and strange mystery surrounding the general who may have stood near the center of America's most secret aerospace programs.
General William McCasland oversaw one of the most sensitive scientific organizations in the United States Air Force, responsible for advanced aerospace research, propulsion systems, and classified technologies. His name surfaced unexpectedly in the now-famous Podesta–DeLonge UFO Email Exchange, where he was referenced in connection with discussions about possible recovered craft and non-human technology.
Soon afterward, McCasland quietly retired from public life.
Why would one of the most senior scientists in the U.S. Air Force be mentioned in conversations about extraterrestrial technology? What role might the Air Force Research Laboratory have played in investigating unknown aerospace materials? And why has so little been heard from him since?
In this episode of Dreamland, we explore the career, responsibilities, and mysteries surrounding the general who may have stood closer than almost anyone to the deepest secrets of advanced aerospace research.
Topics discussed include:
• The mission and capabilities of the Air Force Research Laboratory • The significance of the Podesta–DeLonge email chain • Why Russia or China might have been interested in McCasland’s work • Scientists and researchers connected to advanced propulsion programs Whitley discusses what might have happened with Debrief editor Micah Hanks.
Classified programs relating to lasers in space and more in general about the UFO (UAP) issue. There seems to be a last minute scramble to discourage or prevent disclosure around these topics...
This is valuable intelligence on how one country, with less than ten million inhabitants but with a formidable lobbying force drove the USA to start an unwinable conflict in the Middle East ...
Bill Warner knew, from his reading of the Quran, of the dangers of Islam to non-Islamics. His goal: to inform and warn.by creating easy-to-read versions of core Islamic texts.
The impetus for Bill Warner’s focus on Islam was hugely different from Tommy Robinson’s. He also aimed to achieve something very different.
Tommy Robinson was responding to a long-standing huge social wrong: the overwhelmingly Islamic rape gangs in the UK that had been targeting poor white girls for thee decades, with no help from the police or social services, and no acknowledgment of the existence of the problem from the government.
He wanted to put an end to the gangs. He wanted the police and social services and government to do what they were supposed to do.
In contrast, Bill Warner, in his early explorations of many religious traditions, had become aware of the Quran’s call to violence against non-Islamics about 40 years before 9/11. But he did not give Islam much attention until 9/11. That galvanized him. It was a call to action. A turning point ...

This one is about history. The history of the last millennium and a half. Things I did not know before. If this were widely known, I bet Europe would have been very reluctant to allow islamic immigration right into its heartland ...
Millions of people worldwide are concerned about climate change and believe there is a climate emergency. For decades we have been told by the United Nations that Carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from human activity are causing disastrous climate change. In 2018, a UN IPCC report even warned that ‘we have 12 years to save the Earth’, thus sending millions of people worldwide into a frenzy.
Thirty-five years ago, the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the (World Meteorological Organization) WMO established the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) to provide scientific advice on the complex topic of climate change. The panel was asked to prepare, based on available scientific information, a report on all aspects relevant to climate change and its impacts and to formulate realistic response strategies...
Here is an excellent overview of the science that is underpinning (or not) the hysterical views, the dire picture of our future painted because of changes in the earth's climate ...
About Dr. Steven Greer: Dr. Steven Greer is best known for his dedication to disclosing classified UFO and extraterrestrial information. Over the past 30 years, he has briefed senior government officials worldwide, conducted hundreds of interviews, press conferences, and lectures.
As the author of five books and the producer of documentaries seen by millions, he continues to educate people on peaceful contact with interstellar civilizations, the world of UFOs and UAPs, CE5 contact protocols, meditation techniques, and the transformative power of free energy.
This is about serious disclosure of events relating to secret government capabilities and re-engineered alien technologies. Govrnments have stonewalled us on the subject for decades ...
If we can't put the AI genie back in the bottle, how do we make it safe? Dr. David Brin explorers the ethical, legal and safety implications of artificial intelligence & autonomous systems.
The last couple of years has introduced us to LLM's such as ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Apple AI, Meta.AI, and Perplexity, along with dozens of new generative AI platforms. AI is suddenly everywhere, and both corporations and defense contractors are working hard to leverage it's remarkable capabilities.
Does the rapid pace of AI development, and the unexpected advent of remote autonomous weapon systems pose a risk to human safety? Could this lead to a SkyNet scenario? Falling short of that, how do we tackle the intellectual property & associated issues that have already become apparent?
Dr. David Brin is the author of dozens of best-selling novels & short-stories, some of which have been adapted for film & television, as well as a variety of novels, including "Foundation's Triumph", published in 1999 on behalf of Isaac Asimov's estate, and the book we're discussing today - "Existence", published in 2012.
David is a 2010 fellow of the Institute for Ethics and Emerging Technologies, helped establish the Arthur C. Clarke Center for Human Imagination, serves on the advisory board of NASA's Innovative and Advanced Concepts group, and does futurism consulting for diverse organizations including the US Department of Defense, Procter & Gamble, SAP, Google & many more.
David is the winner of numerous awards & honors, including the prestigious Nebula, Hugo & Locus awards for science fiction, and holds a PhD in Space Science from the University of California.
David's WIRED article (July'23) breaks free of the three standard 'AI-formats' that can only lead to disaster, suggesting instead a 4th. That AI entities can only be held accountable if they have individuality... even 'soul'... https://www.wired.com/story/give-every-ai-a-soul-or-else/
And more vividly detailed? David's Keynote at the huge, May 2024 RSA Conference in San Francisco – is now available online. “Anticipation, Resilience and Reliability: Three ways that AI will change us… if we do it right.” https://vimeo.com/digitalanarchist/download/957944086/31ba9eaa75
“If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” — Nikola Tesla (1856–1943)
It is not easy to categorize Tesla. He's been described as an engineer, inventor, futurist, humanist, and visionary—although his influence extended beyond practical engineering.
Tesla's ideas about energy and the universe resonate with synthesis that is the Electric Universe Model—the recognition of electrical energy as a fundamental force in nature and throughout a living, connected cosmos.
Author and independent researcher David Drew examines Tesla's legacy, and how his accomplishments serve as a reminder of the importance of innovative thinking that challenge the established norms.
I found this video about Nikola Tesla's work particularly interesting, pointing out parallels to the current ongoing research in "Electric Universe Theory"
In his EU2013 Conference talk, Astrophysicist Michael Clarage, PhD, describes how for the last 200 years the word cosmology expressed stars, galaxies, and enormous, lonely reaches of space—a vast expanse of cosmic islands where humans have no meaningful place.
However, Michael sees cosmology as a way of thinking about the entire universe, from the micro to the macro. The EU paradigm is moving scientific thinking towards a more refined definition of cosmology—one that encompasses everything we know about the universe, including ourselves.
This is about cosmology. From 'gravity explains everything' to 'hey - there are electrical phenomena as well.' We arrive at humans, planets, stars and galaxies and energy interchanges among them
There are filaments originating from the Sun that connect matter, energy, and information out and back to every planet in the solar system. These coronal filaments have been known for decades, but only recently it was discovered that they encompass our entire solar system.
Everything in the solar system lives inside the Body of the Sun—including you. If you traveled to that bright orb in the sky, you would arrive at the Heart, or the Brain, or nucleus of the Sun.
The Body of the Sun stretches to the Heliopause—but may even stretch further. Every year new data shows more connection between the stars, so if someone says the science is settled how stars are aligned in the galaxy, do not feel obliged to believe them.
Astrophysicist Michael Clarage, PhD, describes solar filaments as plasma structures. When plasma is imbued with electromagnetic fields and currents—membranes and tubes are formed. This fact of nature occurs both in our biological Human Body—and in the Body of the Sun. ----
The gaslight era is over. Today, a flood of new observations have the experts over at Big Space in a tizzy, inventing ad-hock explanations. A new view of the universe has emerged, one based on the modern discoveries of the electrical properties of plasma.
An apple fell on Isaac Newton—he conceived the Gravity Universe. An aurora fell on Kristian Birkeland—he conceived the Plasma Universe. While the story of Newton is apocryphal, it was in the early 1900s when Birkeland trekked to the Norwegian Arctic, stood under the Aurora Borealis, and took measurements that revealed the presence of electric currents.
Plasma is any substance that contains charged particles—negatively charged electrons, positively charged ions, or dust particles that have an excess of either electrons or ions. Fluorescent and neon lights are plasma. Lightning is plasma. Earth’s magnetosphere, the solar wind, and the sun itself are plasma. Those glowing nebulas in space—mistakenly labeled giant clouds of dust and gas; mainly star-forming regions like the "Pillars of Creation" in the Eagle Nebula—plasma. Full stop.
Electric Universe advocate Matt Finn reminds us that as we look further out with the help of miraculous new instruments and technologies—such as the James Webb Space Telescope—it's undeniable we live in an electrically charged Universe.
Contrary to conventional wisdom that stars and planets were formed by gravitational forces acting on clouds of dust, we now know that electricity and magnetism play a substantial role in the birth and functioning of planets, stars and galaxies.
With a title like Curtain Call for Fossil Fuels you may be led to think that this is about alternative energy or, more hopefully, “free” energy, but alas, it is not. Rather, it is an attempt to portray the inadequacy of the term “fossil fuel,” and to prevent its further usage in the English language through education in the mysteries of the hydrocarbon structures in the Earth.
We can’t blame people for using this misleading phrase, being guilty myself. We are inundated with such misconceptions. One should always be ready to consider new ideas and concepts, especially once the evidence is presented.
The term “fossil fuel” is a standard phrase used in reference to hydrocarbons in their various permutations as petroleum, coals, and natural gas. The argument presented here is that hydrocarbon deposits are not “fossilized carbon” at all in the sense implied in the modern usage of that term, that there is a larger “carbon dynamic” eventuating in the Earth process, of which mysteries abound...
"Fossil fuels" is a misleading term. There are no such things. Gas, oil and coal are continuously generated deep inside the earth's crust. The gas densifies into oil and eventually solidifies into coal as it migrates closer and closer to the surface. We are not running out of this vital resource.

The engineers building artificial intelligence don’t fully understand how it works.
Many people think AI is carefully engineered. In reality, it’s closer to something being grown and these systems are evolving in ways even their creators struggle to predict.
AI researcher and former LLM builder Connor Leahy explains what’s happening inside the labs: why the alignment problem remains unsolved, why the race to AGI is accelerating, and why the people leading it may be moving faster than they understand.
We also discuss AI risk, Silicon Valley’s power dynamics, the Department of Defense’s growing involvement and the rise of “AI psychosis.”

We are developing AI but we don't know what the hell we are doing. Here is a very interesting interview that brings the problems with AI out into the open. "The sorcerer's apprentice" comes to mind. By striving to give AI maximum intelligence we are constructing something with immense destructive potential ...
Just get a whiff of AI's propensity, in war gaming scenarios, to use nukes in 95% of the instances.
It appears that the Western European powers are getting ready to intervene in the Sahel region of Africa, where three countries have rebeled and expelled French troops. There are even indications that "advisors" and "trainers" with war experience coming from the Ukraine of all places, are staged to operate close to the Sahel Alliance's Southern border. (See more videos in comments)
Read comments from last to first - that's the sequence...
The Sahel region in Western Africa uniting economically and it has formed a regional military alliance to break French dominance. Burkina Faso, Niger and Mali have expelled the French military and taken control of their countries' resources. They are gaining ground against terrorists operating in the region, while opening trade corridors to the South and an outlet to the sea for exports...
... a meme designed to make us think we are still living in the post-war period of the 1940s and '50s, when rockets were the best we had for warfare and space exploration. Times have changed. Technology has advanced a lot but it's all locked up in secret, black budget programs.
One of those is known as the "secret space programs" and it is populated with technologies that seem the stuff of science fiction. What is not science fiction is the suffering of the victims, often children, that are forcefully induced into those programs.
The video is an interview with Niara Terela Isley, a whistle blower detailing her personal experience within that program. It will take about an hour of your time and it is meant to be a clear and succinct introduction into what is admittedly a difficult topic. It gets more harrowing the deeper you dive.
Here's a blog post offering Niara's book as mentioned in the video interview:

In the second part of our precession series we examine Jim Weninger's model in detail. We examine the structure of our local galactic neighbourhood to understand how this structure could hide the clues as to the cause of the precession we observe. Using plasma and electric universe ideas we will try and piece together an event which caused the structure we see today and link this to recorded mythology. We will discover that there is evidence that this information was encoded and implies a knowledge that stems back millions of years.
In part 3 will we hear the excerpts from the conversation I had with Jim in order to understand his model. Jim goes into a lot more detail about how he came across the model and area that still need refinement.
I have also agreed with Jim to do a special Q&A session with him so if you have question about this model or anything related to this please put them below in the comments and I will pick the best ones to discuss with Jim.

The precession of the equinoxes or of the earth's axis may be part of a much larger cosmic context than we have so far believed. An interesting model explains this.

Universe - an intuitive description of how life energy creates matter, how matter and energy interact to paint a picture we are still trying to figure out.
An intuitive look at Universe and the energy of life, how things may work, how they mesh with each other, without recourse to mathematics or the physics of our day.
Narrated by David Drew. First episode in a Misconception series of the EU Model—with an emphasis on how science is practiced, interpreted, publicized, and absorbed by society.
Where's the Problem? Is often asked as if there is no problem, but is everything rosy in the science garden? Systematic study is a human endeavor—power, greed and egotism play their part. It's often joked that science proceeds funeral by funeral.
Cosmology—the study of the nature of the universe—provides the building blocks for most other scientific disciplines. This only adds to the inertia against change. We're taught that science is a self-correcting mechanism—following the evidence wherever it leads—is not entirely accurate.
Author and independent researcher David Drew deconstructs the Big Bang, redshift, the CMB, and the peer-review process in this initial episode of the Misconception series. ---
