1
00:00:13,810 --> 00:00:11,270
I thought it was actually really fun it

2
00:00:17,870 --> 00:00:13,820
was interesting Steve Bassett ran it he

3
00:00:19,670 --> 00:00:17,880
moderated instead of directed it and it

4
00:00:23,170 --> 00:00:19,680
was primarily people from the audience

5
00:00:26,210 --> 00:00:23,180
asking questions so it was interesting

6
00:00:28,670 --> 00:00:26,220
we didn't really get into the the idea

7
00:00:31,009 --> 00:00:28,680
of a post to disclosure or world because

8
00:00:32,810 --> 00:00:31,019
it was essentially answering questions

9
00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:32,820
from the audience but most of the

10
00:00:37,160 --> 00:00:34,730
questions are pretty on point and

11
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:37,170
interesting in their own way so I had

12
00:00:43,010 --> 00:00:40,770
fun it's a really interesting structure

13
00:00:45,080 --> 00:00:43,020
he did everything the audience asked off

14
00:00:47,270 --> 00:00:45,090
questions right and those were some of

15
00:00:50,029 --> 00:00:47,280
the most concise questions I heard on a

16
00:00:52,010 --> 00:00:50,039
topic of disclosure at any like UFO

17
00:00:52,430 --> 00:00:52,020
conference I'd been to so yeah that was

18
00:00:53,779 --> 00:00:52,440
great

19
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:53,789
how does some very highly discern any

20
00:00:56,779 --> 00:00:55,410
questions one of the last ones I thought

21
00:00:58,400 --> 00:00:56,789
stood out with me which was the

22
00:00:59,930 --> 00:00:58,410
gentleman who said look how do we really

23
00:01:01,849 --> 00:00:59,940
know what the intentions of these other

24
00:01:04,189 --> 00:01:01,859
beings are even if we if we're told

25
00:01:06,350 --> 00:01:04,199
they're good or how does the government

26
00:01:08,300 --> 00:01:06,360
know what their intentions are and how

27
00:01:10,730 --> 00:01:08,310
do we how do we ever get to a point

28
00:01:13,070 --> 00:01:10,740
where we can understand one way or the

29
00:01:15,380 --> 00:01:13,080
other you know I think there was a lot

30
00:01:17,600 --> 00:01:15,390
of very thoughtful people on this whole

31
00:01:18,740 --> 00:01:17,610
issue and I'm trying to think of some of

32
00:01:21,350 --> 00:01:18,750
the other can you think of some of them

33
00:01:23,109 --> 00:01:21,360
Mike Mike rates no passing out at the

34
00:01:27,620 --> 00:01:23,119
moment I completely I'm with you it was

35
00:01:31,580 --> 00:01:27,630
but there were you know some of the

36
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:31,590
issues about what one was on Antarctica

37
00:01:34,490 --> 00:01:33,570
I haven't

38
00:01:36,530 --> 00:01:34,500
it's interesting I didn't actually

39
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:36,540
address that one directly but Antarctica

40
00:01:41,300 --> 00:01:39,210
is one of those things that I did not

41
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:41,310
give a lot of time and thought to over

42
00:01:44,510 --> 00:01:42,690
the years but recently I've come to

43
00:01:47,210 --> 00:01:44,520
think maybe there's something to some of

44
00:01:48,859 --> 00:01:47,220
these leaks about in our field so

45
00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:48,869
there's a lot of interesting questions

46
00:01:54,410 --> 00:01:53,130
that came up and I enjoyed being on in

47
00:01:56,630 --> 00:01:54,420
fact I should remember them all because

48
00:01:58,609 --> 00:01:56,640
like I did the majority of it Hawking

49
00:02:00,770 --> 00:01:58,619
well you know what I thought it was

50
00:02:02,900 --> 00:02:00,780
really cool too was that it kind of led

51
00:02:04,219 --> 00:02:02,910
into a lot of their topics you're gonna

52
00:02:07,609 --> 00:02:04,229
be talking about at your actual

53
00:02:10,460 --> 00:02:07,619
presentation right well I and all that

54
00:02:12,740 --> 00:02:10,470
oh yeah about what we talked about

55
00:02:15,740 --> 00:02:12,750
absolutely well you just made me realize

56
00:02:17,540 --> 00:02:15,750
one of the questions was you know if

57
00:02:19,190 --> 00:02:17,550
we're thinking of UFO disclosure it's

58
00:02:20,600 --> 00:02:19,200
not like that concurs in a vacuum there

59
00:02:22,310 --> 00:02:20,610
are other important things going on in

60
00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:22,320
this world in relating to the global

61
00:02:27,460 --> 00:02:24,650
environment in relating relation to

62
00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:27,470
technology changes in relation to our

63
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:29,210
transformation of the global

64
00:02:33,460 --> 00:02:31,370
an economic and financial situation all

65
00:02:35,770 --> 00:02:33,470
of these things are happening very very

66
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:35,780
powerfully right now and any kind of

67
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:37,730
disclosure on the UFO reality occurs

68
00:02:41,740 --> 00:02:40,130
within that context and that does lead

69
00:02:44,620 --> 00:02:41,750
me to the talk that I'm going to be

70
00:02:47,290 --> 00:02:44,630
giving at about 20 minutes on it's not

71
00:02:49,270 --> 00:02:47,300
related to the UFO issue directly it's

72
00:02:52,110 --> 00:02:49,280
on artificial intelligence and

73
00:02:54,850 --> 00:02:52,120
transhumanism which has been one of the

74
00:02:56,890 --> 00:02:54,860
issues that have gotten into been

75
00:02:59,650 --> 00:02:56,900
interesting for a while but particularly

76
00:03:02,410 --> 00:02:59,660
this year and I simply want to talk

77
00:03:05,100 --> 00:03:02,420
about how there is a definite utopian

78
00:03:08,740 --> 00:03:05,110
element to a lot of the transhumanist

79
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:08,750
ideology these individuals who you know

80
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:10,730
they're looking at not just artificial

81
00:03:15,610 --> 00:03:12,410
intelligence with genetic modification

82
00:03:17,230 --> 00:03:15,620
gene therapy and talking like you're

83
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:17,240
going to be able to live forever or

84
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:19,010
you'll be able to live at least not if

85
00:03:24,190 --> 00:03:20,570
not forever than for many hundreds of

86
00:03:26,150 --> 00:03:24,200
years without getting sick or or in very

87
00:03:28,010 --> 00:03:26,160
excellent health and so forth

88
00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:28,020
that's all very seductive and very nice

89
00:03:33,890 --> 00:03:29,730
but transhumanism doesn't stop there

90
00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:33,900
it's really about the creation of like a

91
00:03:39,350 --> 00:03:36,770
super human species in the future and

92
00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:39,360
transhumanists absolutely believe us

93
00:03:44,250 --> 00:03:41,610
many of them have

94
00:03:46,860 --> 00:03:44,260
the Autopia nism is something that I'm

95
00:03:49,890 --> 00:03:46,870
familiar with in the UFO community was a

96
00:03:51,479 --> 00:03:49,900
very strong utopian element there we

97
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:51,489
only have disclosure that will solve all

98
00:03:56,490 --> 00:03:53,530
the world's problems or if the Galactic

99
00:03:59,190 --> 00:03:56,500
Brotherhood or Federation were to bring

100
00:04:01,259 --> 00:03:59,200
us into the next spiritual awakening

101
00:04:03,059 --> 00:04:01,269
that our society will be better than you

102
00:04:05,540 --> 00:04:03,069
know these are let's fix all of

103
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:05,550
humanity's problems type

104
00:04:11,090 --> 00:04:07,770
the allergies and in transhumanism

105
00:04:13,340 --> 00:04:11,100
there's a similar utopian strain going

106
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:13,350
on here it says if if we only were to

107
00:04:18,380 --> 00:04:15,330
make ourselves smarter and stronger and

108
00:04:19,640 --> 00:04:18,390
live longer well you know we'll all be

109
00:04:21,949 --> 00:04:19,650
happy and we'll solve all of our

110
00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:21,959
problems and the computers will fix all

111
00:04:25,790 --> 00:04:23,610
the problems that we're not able to

112
00:04:27,590 --> 00:04:25,800
solve and something tells me that

113
00:04:31,270 --> 00:04:27,600
there's this whole thing I think about

114
00:04:32,920 --> 00:04:31,280
call the law of unintended consequences

115
00:04:35,830 --> 00:04:32,930
I think of Jeff Goldblum's character in

116
00:04:37,209 --> 00:04:35,840
Jurassic Park if he said was it because

117
00:04:41,439 --> 00:04:37,219
you can do something doesn't mean you

118
00:04:44,320 --> 00:04:41,449
should and one of the great lines in any

119
00:04:46,300 --> 00:04:44,330
movie and I believe that that's what

120
00:04:48,189 --> 00:04:46,310
we're looking at with this transhumanism

121
00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:48,199
I think that we're transforming

122
00:04:52,629 --> 00:04:50,330
ourselves so radically that there's

123
00:04:57,129 --> 00:04:52,639
going to be some very disruptive and

124
00:04:59,129 --> 00:04:57,139
probably dangerous consequences I can't

125
00:05:02,730 --> 00:04:59,139
pretend I know them all but I think

126
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:02,740
I'm very much not one of the Immortals I

127
00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:04,810
don't believe it people should live

128
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:05,289
forever

129
00:05:09,770 --> 00:05:07,770
I think that

130
00:05:11,480 --> 00:05:09,780
really have genuine change in our world

131
00:05:14,250 --> 00:05:11,490
because the new generation

132
00:05:16,710 --> 00:05:14,260
come on

133
00:05:18,930 --> 00:05:16,720
I am NOT a believer that most people

134
00:05:22,050 --> 00:05:18,940
really think different he was a village

135
00:05:26,630 --> 00:05:22,060
he's very well but it's new generations

136
00:05:33,410 --> 00:05:30,090
unlike anything well oh yeah well and

137
00:05:36,260 --> 00:05:33,420
also just the thing is that we are

138
00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:36,270
transforming ourselves even even without

139
00:05:42,570 --> 00:05:38,730
trying to go pedal to the metal with

140
00:05:45,150 --> 00:05:42,580
gene therapy or cognitive implants or

141
00:05:47,580 --> 00:05:45,160
whatever else we have been transforming

142
00:05:50,190 --> 00:05:47,590
ourselves in past 10,000 years simply

143
00:05:53,670 --> 00:05:50,200
due to sedentary agriculture and we're

144
00:05:55,500 --> 00:05:53,680
not the same version of the species that

145
00:05:58,440 --> 00:05:55,510
even our forebears were 10,000 years ago

146
00:06:02,010 --> 00:05:58,450
but even now our partner state of

147
00:06:04,380 --> 00:06:02,020
civilization is is ramping things up to

148
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:04,390
a much greater degree so we're we're

149
00:06:10,620 --> 00:06:08,050
changing and it's a kind of non

150
00:06:13,050 --> 00:06:10,630
self-directed evolution but it is an

151
00:06:16,700 --> 00:06:13,060
evolutionary process that is driven by

152
00:06:18,159 --> 00:06:16,710
our civilization and what

153
00:06:20,260 --> 00:06:18,169
taking that and

154
00:06:24,250 --> 00:06:20,270
and really going

155
00:06:27,940 --> 00:06:24,260
with great focus and direction one thing

156
00:06:30,010 --> 00:06:27,950
that I think we can definitely say that

157
00:06:32,159 --> 00:06:30,020
is going to be a problem is the total

158
00:06:33,570 --> 00:06:32,169
loss of privacy

159
00:06:35,850 --> 00:06:33,580
in the near future what we're dealing

160
00:06:38,040 --> 00:06:35,860
with is the

161
00:06:40,790 --> 00:06:38,050
I mean we think privacy is done now but

162
00:06:43,399 --> 00:06:40,800
compared even with 10 20 years ago

163
00:06:47,530 --> 00:06:43,409
we'll look back on this time as an era

164
00:06:50,230 --> 00:06:47,540
of great relative privacy because

165
00:06:52,570 --> 00:06:50,240
in an era of coming 5g technology

166
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:52,580
Internet of Things where everything can

167
00:06:56,350 --> 00:06:54,650
talk to each other and where all day

168
00:06:58,180 --> 00:06:56,360
that was being siphoned out of your

169
00:07:00,850 --> 00:06:58,190
refrigerator your stove your toaster

170
00:07:02,380 --> 00:07:00,860
your your car and everything else there

171
00:07:05,050 --> 00:07:02,390
is no place where you'll ever be able to

172
00:07:07,870 --> 00:07:05,060
go where you will have any semblance of

173
00:07:11,350 --> 00:07:07,880
privacy and where the data about your

174
00:07:14,770 --> 00:07:11,360
entire life will be siphoned abused for

175
00:07:16,420 --> 00:07:14,780
the benefit of organizations that know

176
00:07:17,830 --> 00:07:16,430
how to make use of it you'll be able to

177
00:07:20,800 --> 00:07:17,840
put together a better personality

178
00:07:21,310 --> 00:07:20,810
profile of you than you can and much

179
00:07:25,270 --> 00:07:21,320
much more

180
00:07:28,060 --> 00:07:25,280
so there's privacy is going to be so

181
00:07:29,740 --> 00:07:28,070
completely gone and what that will do to

182
00:07:31,210 --> 00:07:29,750
our society with that we do to our

183
00:07:34,510 --> 00:07:31,220
personalities it's a good question to

184
00:07:35,950 --> 00:07:34,520
ask because in an era of no privacy

185
00:07:38,830 --> 00:07:35,960
it seems to me that we're in danger of

186
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:38,840
developing as most i've mentality to a

187
00:07:43,850 --> 00:07:41,370
far greater oriental ever imagine

188
00:07:45,400 --> 00:07:43,860
because if there's no privacy people are

189
00:07:50,210 --> 00:07:45,410
going to be less and less inclined to

190
00:07:51,879 --> 00:07:50,220
speak up speak up their own mind and I

191
00:07:55,719 --> 00:07:51,889
think we're moving toward

192
00:07:56,930 --> 00:07:55,729
a very great informative which is

193
00:07:59,510 --> 00:07:56,940
terrifying

194
00:08:02,600 --> 00:07:59,520
but extremely fascinating and we can

195
00:08:04,910 --> 00:08:02,610
only sort of appropriate with knowledge

196
00:08:06,620 --> 00:08:04,920
yeah and but a lot of people I think

197
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:06,630
will be perfectly cool with it because

198
00:08:09,590 --> 00:08:07,890
they'll be able to live in their total

199
00:08:10,970 --> 00:08:09,600
immersive virtual reality environments

200
00:08:13,580 --> 00:08:10,980
where they can be celebrity millionaires

201
00:08:15,710 --> 00:08:13,590
and have that whole thing happening so

202
00:08:19,850 --> 00:08:15,720
even in a world where there's there's

203
00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:19,860
nothing genuinely nothing deep to offer

204
00:08:23,390 --> 00:08:22,050
a lot of people know what are you gonna

205
00:08:25,430 --> 00:08:23,400
do if you live for 500 years you're

206
00:08:27,890 --> 00:08:25,440
gonna go to the same job jump punch the

207
00:08:28,790 --> 00:08:27,900
pockets of office I wouldn't think so I

208
00:08:32,180 --> 00:08:28,800
don't know

209
00:08:34,070 --> 00:08:32,190
will do but one thing is you can just

210
00:08:38,659 --> 00:08:34,080
see this happening where there would be

211
00:08:41,329 --> 00:08:38,669
a kind of increasingly greater and

212
00:08:43,730 --> 00:08:41,339
greater development on crazy Virtual

213
00:08:49,980 --> 00:08:43,740

214
00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:52,170
