Episode 12 - AI Advancements, Conspiracy Theories and Police Encounters

Ever wondered how close we're getting to a Terminator-like future with the rapid advancements in AI and robotics? This episode sees Mike Gonzalez and I, Jessica Taylor, tackling this thought-provoking question. We draw chilling parallels between reality and fiction, and express our concerns about the societal impact of these technologies. We also delve into the Boston Dynamics robots and their self-learning capabilities which, if not controlled, could potentially spiral out of control.

We then wade into the waters of controversy, discussing self-proclaimed conspiracy theorist Alex Jones' return to X. Jones has made some eyebrow-raising claims over the years, including the alleged control of Hollywood by the CIA, and we dissect these assertions in detail. We also shed light on the stand taken by French farmers against government interference, who've decided enough is enough and have taken to some extraordinary methods to voice their frustrations.

Ever seen a police encounter video and questioned the use of force? We scrutinize one such video in this episode, analyzing an officer's decision-making and use of the blue nose round. We also discuss a tense situation where a man with a knife attacks officers in a confined space. Then, we lighten the mood a bit with a discussion about a recent absurd Walmart incident and the potentially suppressed advanced technologies from the past. So, get ready for an episode that's not just insightful but also packed with laughter!
