1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000 Unprecedented technology, transforming the way we live. 2 00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:10,000 Did we develop it all on our own or did we get help? 3 00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:12,000 Artificial intelligence. 4 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:15,000 Could it become the most intelligent species on the planet? 5 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:17,000 We still decide who the bad guys are. 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:20,000 We know AI begins to decide who the bad guys are. 7 00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:22,000 Let's hope it's not us. 8 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,000 Did a possible UFO crash in Roswell, New Mexico 9 00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,000 change the course of human history? 10 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,000 Did we reverse engineer extraterrestrial technology? 11 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000 And I believe the answer is yes. 12 00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:39,000 And might this advanced technology have been gifted to humans 13 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:41,000 like a Trojan horse? 14 00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000 Whether it was given to us or whether we obtained it in crashes, 15 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,000 the technology could be a means for our destruction. 16 00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,000 The World's Greatest Technology 17 00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000 The World's Greatest Technology 18 00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000 The World's Greatest Technology 19 00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:11,000 The World's Greatest Technology 20 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:16,000 Throughout the 20th century, mankind has witnessed 21 00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,000 inexplicable rapid technology advances 22 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,000 in nearly all areas of human endeavors. 23 00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:26,000 Compared to 200,000 years of human history 24 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,000 and the only technology which tech progress came very slowly, 25 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:35,000 suddenly in the last 100 years, mankind went from steam engines 26 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000 to nuclear power. 27 00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:41,000 And how did we go from the first jet passenger plane in 1954 28 00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:45,000 to landing a man on the moon just 15 years later? 29 00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:49,000 If you look about 100 years ago, we were still in horse buggies 30 00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:53,000 and now all of a sudden we've got artificially intelligent satellites 31 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:55,000 orbiting the planet. 32 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:59,000 And such dramatic leads really be the result of human effort alone. 33 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:04,000 We certainly had a technological jump that was unprecedented 34 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:06,000 in human history. 35 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:09,000 And we're looking for a reason why. 36 00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:15,000 Where did all of the technology come from? 37 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,000 Did we develop it all on our own or did we get help? 38 00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:23,000 UFO investigators believe the story of our recent incredible 39 00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:28,000 technological progress begins on July 8th, 1947 40 00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,000 on a desert ranch in Roswell, New Mexico. 41 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:42,000 The 509 bomb group there in Roswell sent 42 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,000 Major Jesse Marcell, who was head of intelligence, 43 00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:52,000 and they gathered up a great deal of this material. 44 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:56,000 And there was no question in Marcell's mind 45 00:02:56,000 --> 00:03:00,000 that these were extraterrestrial origin. 46 00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:04,000 That's what he told his life and that's what he told his son. 47 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,000 According to military records, the Roswell debris 48 00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:12,000 is immediately transported to Wright-Patterson Air Force Base 49 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,000 near Dayton, Ohio. 50 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:19,000 Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is always associated with UFOs 51 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,000 and that is because whenever Crash at Roswell 52 00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,000 made its way to Wright-Patterson. 53 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,000 Suddenly then, after the Roswell incident, 54 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,000 there was a major breakthrough in transistor technology. 55 00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,000 We moved away from vacuum tubes and really the transistor age 56 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:39,000 started us into what is now the modern computer age. 57 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:43,000 But completely changed the direction of U.S. technological development. 58 00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:47,000 A lot of this stuff came from outside. It came from another world. 59 00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:54,000 Until the Roswell crash, the world had been relying 60 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:58,000 for almost 50 years on primitive vacuum tube technology. 61 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:02,000 Then, not long after Roswell, there were major breakthroughs 62 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:07,000 in transistor technology unlike anything the world had ever seen before. 63 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,000 And transistors were the key building blocks 64 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,000 in the electronic revolution that followed. 65 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,000 But is it possible that transistors were only the beginning 66 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:20,000 of a tech revolution brought about by contact with UFOs? 67 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:25,000 In January 1958, 10 years after Roswell, 68 00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:28,000 President Eisenhower goes before Congress, 69 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:32,000 calling for increased funding for the sciences and space research. 70 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,000 We must be forward looking in our research and development 71 00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:41,000 to anticipate and achieve the unimagined weapons of the future. 72 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:46,000 One significant result of the speech is the creation 73 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:51,000 of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, better known as DARPA. 74 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:58,000 DARPA is an agency charged with developing new technologies, 75 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,000 usually ones that will have military applications 76 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:07,000 and really pushing the boundaries and expanding the frontiers of science. 77 00:05:08,000 --> 00:05:11,000 In the same year as Eisenhower's speech, 78 00:05:11,000 --> 00:05:14,000 DARPA manages rocket development programs 79 00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,000 that proved to be long-lived and far-reaching, 80 00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:21,000 leading to manned space flights and lunar landings. 81 00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:26,000 DARPA has got to be one of the most mysterious single units 82 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:30,000 of government R&D research and development. 83 00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:35,000 The things that they have done, the public today can't live without. 84 00:05:36,000 --> 00:05:42,000 In the 1960s, never before imagined DARPA innovations include the ARPANet, 85 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,000 the network that became the basis of the Internet, 86 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,000 and supercomputers that performed calculations 87 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,000 billions of times faster than a human brain. 88 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:57,000 So basically we go from simple adding machines to advanced technology. 89 00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:02,000 Why did we make these changes so quickly and where did this technology come from? 90 00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:12,000 A lot of researchers believe that the pace has been so fast 91 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:14,000 that it seems almost unnatural. 92 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:17,000 It's as if it came from somewhere else. 93 00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:20,000 And of course those people say, well, it did. 94 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:25,000 And there are many who believe that this is technology acquired 95 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:28,000 from extraterrestrial intelligence, 96 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:33,000 whether it is the crash of a UFO at Roswell, 97 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:39,000 or whether it's some sort of active alien liaison program. 98 00:06:40,000 --> 00:06:45,000 Until the 1970s, the US Air Force relied on traditional war planes 99 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:50,000 like the B-52 bomber and the F-15 fighter jet for defense. 100 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:55,000 Planes that were in keeping with decades of gradual technological advances. 101 00:06:55,000 --> 00:07:00,000 But mysteriously, in the 70s, DARPA begins helping the Air Force 102 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,000 design and build aircraft with never-before-imagined capabilities, 103 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:09,000 aircraft that appear to come more from the pages of science fiction, 104 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,000 like the stealth fighter and stealth bomber, 105 00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:18,000 both designed to avoid detection by radar, infrared, and radio frequency. 106 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:23,000 It took us 30 years from Roswell to develop fiber optic technology 107 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,000 to the point that it was actually usable in modern aircraft. 108 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:31,000 And that's where the idea came from of sending information through light 109 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,000 over fiber optic cables. 110 00:07:33,000 --> 00:07:38,000 Without that technology, we would not have some of the advanced aircraft that we have today. 111 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:43,000 But is there any evidence that this technology was actually derived from UFOs? 112 00:07:44,000 --> 00:07:47,000 In fact, of the many former scientists and engineers 113 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:50,000 who worked in highly classified government programs, 114 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,000 three spoke out about the UFO connection. 115 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:57,000 Bob Lazar, who claimed to have worked on propulsion systems for the military, 116 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:02,000 revealed in 1989 that he had worked with extraterrestrial technology 117 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,000 at a site near Area 51. 118 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:12,000 Bob Lazar claimed that he had seen extraterrestrial technology. 119 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,000 Some of it crashed and some of it intact. 120 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:22,000 And they were working on trying to figure out how the extraterrestrial technology worked. 121 00:08:23,000 --> 00:08:28,000 And in fact, that's what Bob Lazar claimed that he did. 122 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:34,000 There is also Ben Rich, former senior director at Lockheed Martin's Legendary Skunk Works, 123 00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:39,000 a program tasked with developing super advanced aircraft designs. 124 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:43,000 In 1993, Ben Rich gave a lecture at the UCLA School of Engineering. 125 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,000 Then he ended it with this statement, 126 00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:48,000 we now have the technology to take ET home. 127 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:53,000 I'm certain that they've made important breakthroughs that they still have not revealed to us. 128 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:56,000 In statements made just before his death, 129 00:08:56,000 --> 00:08:59,000 former chief of the Pentagon's foreign technology desk, 130 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:04,000 Philip Corso, spoke of turning over UFO tech to the private sector. 131 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:09,000 We gave information out, we gave it out and insisted they take the patents. 132 00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:13,000 But also we put a little bit of a requirement on there, 133 00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:16,000 a requirement that feed it back to us for the competitive edge of the army. 134 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:22,000 This idea of technology transfer between extraterrestrial civilizations 135 00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:27,000 and the American military is certainly supported by the testimony 136 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:35,000 of very, very specific and highly placed individuals within the American military and private business. 137 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:40,000 I think technology acquisition gets to the heart of UFO secrecy. 138 00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,000 And if any of this is right, extraterrestrials would be real. 139 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,000 That is an absolutely game-changing paradigm-shifting place to be in. 140 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:58,000 But was breakthrough UFO technology a gift that simply fell from the cosmos? 141 00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:01,000 Was it intentionally sent here for the benefit of mankind? 142 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,000 Or is it possible there could be another more sinister reason 143 00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:08,000 to deliver alien technology to Earth? 144 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:09,000 Coming up... 145 00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:13,000 If zero-point energy can be harness, 146 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:17,000 this opens the door to a weapon of unimaginable power. 147 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:24,000 Individuals within our defense community confirmed the existence of extraterrestrial technology and bodies. 148 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:34,000 Since 1947, when a so-called flying saucer crashed in Roswell, New Mexico, 149 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:42,000 mankind has witnessed unprecedented technology advances in nearly all areas of society. 150 00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:45,000 Is this a coincidence? 151 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:52,000 Or might this be proof that our world is besieged from technology derived from extraterrestrial contact? 152 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:56,000 Since the reported crash of a UFO at Roswell, 153 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:00,000 the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, 154 00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:06,000 has produced technological innovation that seems to have come from the pages of the world. 155 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:11,000 The defense-advanced research project's agency, or DARPA, 156 00:11:11,000 --> 00:11:17,000 has produced technological innovation that seems to have come from the pages of science fiction. 157 00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:25,000 When we look at the world today, things like the Internet, like GPS, like satellites, like stealth technology, 158 00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:29,000 those are all things that come from DARPA. 159 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:39,000 And DARPA is all about turning these new technologies into deployable battlefield assets. 160 00:11:39,000 --> 00:11:43,000 But the secret projects that DARPA is rumored to be currently pursuing 161 00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:48,000 seem almost beyond our comprehension and this world. 162 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:58,000 Case in point, the top-secret TR-3B, an experimental aircraft rumored to exist but unconfirmed by our military. 163 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:04,000 The TR-3B is really nothing like anything that we've seen in aviation, aerospace history. 164 00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:11,000 It's a flying triangle, a black-world project that employs a combination of technologies, including anti-gravity. 165 00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:19,000 Then they have conventional thrusters at each of the tips that really allow for rapid acceleration and maneuverability. 166 00:12:19,000 --> 00:12:27,000 According to experts, the TR-3B is also nearly invisible to radar and air defense systems. 167 00:12:27,000 --> 00:12:33,000 The primary reason why they're hiding it is because any government that controls the high ground in a battlefield 168 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:42,000 will win that war. So if you control the high ground, it's a done deal, you've got it. 169 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:48,000 In alien attacks imagined by science fiction writers, as in H.G. Wells' The War of the Worlds, 170 00:12:48,000 --> 00:12:54,000 the weapon of choice for extraterrestrials is often an energy ray. 171 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:59,000 DARPA is developing just such directed energy weapons. 172 00:12:59,000 --> 00:13:07,000 These use highly focused energy, including lasers, microwaves and particle beams. 173 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:13,000 In terms of the next generation of battlefield weapons, directed energy weapons, 174 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:18,000 it's very much what we are looking at. Arguably that technology is here today, 175 00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:28,000 but it is only going to increase in potency as the technology is refined and further developed. 176 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:36,000 Could alien technology be DARPA's source for the newest weapons it has developed for the military? 177 00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:43,000 Evidence may be found in DARPA's pursuit of what some call the Holy Grail of all future technology, 178 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:50,000 zero point energy, a force potentially several times greater than nuclear energy. 179 00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:58,000 This is the idea that essentially you would be able to derive almost literally from nothing. 180 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:09,000 Unimaginable and arguably unlimited energy, and clearly if zero point energy is real and can be harnessed, 181 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:15,000 this opens the door to a weapon of unimaginable power. 182 00:14:15,000 --> 00:14:19,000 If extraterrestrials have been observing the human history of warfare for millennia, 183 00:14:19,000 --> 00:14:26,000 might they have a sinister purpose in putting that kind of world destroying power in our hands? 184 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:30,000 When you look at some of the advanced technologies that are coming into play, 185 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:37,000 like directed energy weapons, like the TR-3B anti-gravity craft, 186 00:14:37,000 --> 00:14:43,000 some people think that we gained these advances from either a recovered UFO, 187 00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:48,000 or perhaps it was gifted to us by an extraterrestrial civilization. 188 00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:57,000 UFO investigators believe further clues to the success of DARPA's many astonishing innovations 189 00:14:57,000 --> 00:15:01,000 may be found in the leaked emails of John Podesta, 190 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:07,000 former chief of staff for President Bill Clinton and presidential campaign manager for Hillary Clinton. 191 00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:12,000 We now know that John Podesta has been involved in email exchanges and communication with a number of people 192 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:15,000 connected with the UFO field of research. 193 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:19,000 One of these is former Apollo 14 moonwalking astronaut Edgar Mitchell. 194 00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:22,000 One email from Edgar Mitchell to John Podesta, 195 00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,000 released by WikiLeaks on January 18, 2015, 196 00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:29,000 seen here for the first time on national television, 197 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:32,000 refers to extraterrestrial intelligence. 198 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,000 When he writes, 199 00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:37,000 Remember, our nonviolent ETI from the contiguous universe 200 00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:40,000 are helping us bring zero point energy to Earth. 201 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:45,000 They will not tolerate any forms of military violence on Earth or in space. 202 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:49,000 I'm not really sure what Edgar Mitchell was really trying to accomplish here, 203 00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:55,000 but I know for a fact that he spoke to a number of very high level individuals within our defense community 204 00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:02,000 who confirmed to him the existence of programs to study extraterrestrial technology and bodies. 205 00:16:02,000 --> 00:16:07,000 And there's zero doubt that John Podesta has had conversations with Bill and Hillary Clinton 206 00:16:07,000 --> 00:16:09,000 about UFOs and about extraterrestrials. 207 00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:16,000 Is this email proof that DARPA's incredible breakthroughs could have been derived from contact with alien technology? 208 00:16:16,000 --> 00:16:24,000 And is our government hiding the truth behind the origin of some of our military's most astonishing achievements? 209 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:30,000 Researchers claim there is one more extraterrestrial technology developed by DARPA 210 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,000 that's even more powerful than all the rest. 211 00:16:33,000 --> 00:16:41,000 But will it benefit humankind or lead to our annihilation? 212 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:42,000 Coming up... 213 00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:50,000 Artificial intelligence is going to grow from the workforce to military and autonomous soldiers. 214 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:57,000 And these things could be used in mass killings and in targeted assassinations. 215 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:12,000 UFO researchers believe that DARPA and the U.S. military may have developed highly advanced weapons 216 00:17:12,000 --> 00:17:17,000 derived from contact with UFOs. 217 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:24,000 But is there evidence to suggest such alien tech may have been sent here to do us harm? 218 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,000 October 2015 219 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:37,000 NASA transmits a software update to the Mars rover Curiosity. 220 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:43,000 The upgrade is a program of artificial intelligence called Aegis. 221 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:47,000 Although in constant contact with mission control on Earth, 222 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:55,000 the AI allows the rover to autonomously choose which Martian rocks and soil it finds interesting for analysis. 223 00:17:55,000 --> 00:18:02,000 In essence, the artificial intelligence transforms a six-wheeled nuclear-powered robot 224 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:06,000 into a field geologist able to think for itself. 225 00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:24,000 Artificial intelligence is essentially the concept that you could get a computer program. 226 00:18:24,000 --> 00:18:29,000 And then that program would evolve. 227 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:38,000 It would go beyond its programming and it would be able to perceive its environment, take decisions. 228 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:45,000 And some people say that eventually it would become self-aware. 229 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:53,000 Artificial intelligence is perhaps the most dramatic technological advancement we have ever known. 230 00:18:53,000 --> 00:19:00,000 But could this also be an example of reverse engineered or gifted extraterrestrial technology? 231 00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:15,000 A particular interest to UFO researchers is the use of AI in unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs, commonly called drones. 232 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:21,000 On October 26, 2016, 233 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:28,000 high above a California desert, a pair of Air Force Hornets release a swarm of drones. 234 00:19:33,000 --> 00:19:39,000 Captured by satellite video, the drones are seen as a moving series of waypoints, 235 00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:43,000 meeting objectives set by human programmers. 236 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:50,000 Sharing intelligence for decision-making, the drones adapt, like swarms in nature. 237 00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:53,000 It's certainly dependent on AI to make it work. 238 00:19:53,000 --> 00:20:00,000 The ability, in other words, of these objects to make certain kinds of autonomous decisions on the fly, 239 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:03,000 they've got to be able to do that to be effective. 240 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:08,000 The analogy of a swarm of killer bees comes to mind. 241 00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:14,000 And clearly what we have are these drones able to perceive their environment, 242 00:20:15,000 --> 00:20:26,000 but then interact with each other to adjust their course and to move as if they were a single entity. 243 00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:35,000 In recent years, our military has begun employing drone swarms programmed with artificial intelligence 244 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:37,000 in the skies of Middle Eastern battlefields. 245 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:42,000 In Syria, we're seeing drones probing into and invading into Syrian territory. 246 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,000 It's all testing this technology. 247 00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:47,000 Drone swarms are going to overtake this whole thing. 248 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:54,000 This is the future of warfare. 249 00:20:56,000 --> 00:20:59,000 But this future is not without ominous concerns. 250 00:20:59,000 --> 00:21:06,000 If AI is derived from alien technology, as UFO investigators suspect, can we trust it? 251 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:13,000 What if it was sent here as a Trojan horse to be used against ourselves? 252 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:19,000 There are huge issues that need to be addressed with this technology. 253 00:21:19,000 --> 00:21:26,000 One of them is targeting, and especially the use of lethal force. 254 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:35,000 Clearly in military applications, it presents a real challenge because it can work so quickly 255 00:21:35,000 --> 00:21:43,000 that you've taken humans out of the loop, and when you do that, then human considerations of morality are also out of the loop. 256 00:21:46,000 --> 00:21:51,000 A pilot can discern about what might be going on in a battlefield. 257 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:55,000 If you have an autonomous drone, there could be like collateral damage. 258 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:04,000 A human pilot could discern if there's something there, a hospital, so they would pass that target. 259 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:09,000 But when you have kind of a smart weapon attached to a computer program, it doesn't know that. 260 00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:17,000 So I think it's important to have a human mind within the loop. 261 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:27,000 What if some foreign nations or non-state actors hack into the U.S. technology? 262 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:33,000 Are we going to see swarms of killer drones turned against us? 263 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:43,000 This is the future. These things could be used in mass killings, but they could also be used in targeted assassinations, 264 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:47,000 and they are very, very difficult to defend against. 265 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:53,000 The problem is that we still decide who the bad guys are. We don't know who AI begins to decide who the bad guys are. 266 00:22:53,000 --> 00:22:55,000 I hope it's not us. 267 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:02,000 What happens when we lose control over the AI operating our military weapons? 268 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:07,000 And what if artificial intelligence really is a Trojan horse? 269 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:14,000 If it continues to develop with such incredible speed, will mankind survive? 270 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:18,000 Coming up. 271 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:24,000 We are looking at a weird amalgam of biological genetic engineering combined with AI. 272 00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:32,000 Artificial intelligence robots could control the planet, and eventually they might not need us. 273 00:23:40,000 --> 00:23:46,000 Although mankind has seen unparalleled technology advances in the past 100 years, 274 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:54,000 now in a seemingly sci-fi future outlined by Ray Kurzweil, a top executive at Google and world-renowned futurist, 275 00:23:54,000 --> 00:24:00,000 artificial intelligence will attain the level of human intelligence in just 10 more years. 276 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:12,000 Kurzweil further theorizes that human intelligence will eventually be multiplied a billion fold by merging with the artificial intelligence we've created. 277 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:23,000 At what point do we say that we've got a conscious machine that is now so far advanced of human beings that maybe we're not the dominant species anymore? 278 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:32,000 Do we combine with these machines and become super advanced highly intelligent cyborgs, biological cyborgs, or will they find us obsolete? 279 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:42,000 If AI is derived from alien technology, could this slow takeover of the human race be a way to eliminate earthlings without the need for war, as some speculate? 280 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:48,000 And are we continuing to accelerate this possibility with current research? 281 00:24:48,000 --> 00:25:01,000 As of July 2017, with 65 million in new funding, DARPA is developing neural implants that allow the human brain to communicate directly with computer interfaces. 282 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:10,000 Your brain, it works on electrical signals. All right, that sounds like it would be a pretty easy task to tap into those signals and decide what it is that you're thinking about. 283 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:18,000 You know, for example, that you want to look up something on the internet. Okay, so you just read those signals, oh, he wants to look this up on the internet, 284 00:25:18,000 --> 00:25:21,000 and suddenly up comes your browser and it shows you what you're looking for. 285 00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:31,000 I talk to people in the Silicon Valley about this, and they say it's 10 years away, this kind of brain-machine interface working at a pretty high level. 286 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:38,000 Might a future in which humans are replaced by AI technology be here sooner than we think? 287 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:46,000 One of the greatest minds of our age, Stephen Hawking, predicted this kind of grim future by writing, 288 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:52,000 the development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race. 289 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:02,000 It could be that this artificial intelligence, these robots have the ability to replicate themselves. 290 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:08,000 They can control the planet, and eventually they might not need us. 291 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:20,000 The point at which technological growth may result in profound changes to human civilization is known as the singularity. 292 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:28,000 When you have a program that can foresee its own upgrading needs and its own ability to reprogram itself, 293 00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:34,000 well, that's when you're really in danger of losing control over the whole process, 294 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:39,000 and the artificial intelligence becomes the dominant intelligence. 295 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:47,000 AI people call that the singularity, and the question is, is this going to be a really bad thing? 296 00:26:48,000 --> 00:26:57,000 In fact, some scholars fear that artificial intelligence may one day decide not to support the continued existence of humanity. 297 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:05,000 What happens when it does perhaps regard biological life as a threat? 298 00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:11,000 It would want to preserve itself, and it would want to deal with that threat. 299 00:27:12,000 --> 00:27:21,000 So AI will want to survive, improve, and reproduce. What does that mean for humanity? It might not be good news. 300 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:26,000 The usual thought is, look, if the machines start getting out of control, we just turn them off. 301 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:31,000 Unfortunately, the machines will be aware of that possibility. You cannot pull the plug. 302 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,000 That's the first thing they're going to do, to make sure you can't stop them. 303 00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:39,000 I mean, that's a nice idea, but I think it's naive. 304 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:48,000 Alarm bells are already ringing in many academic circles where artificial intelligence is considered a serious threat to our way of life. 305 00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:53,000 Might they already know that AI is derived from alien contact? 306 00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:04,000 A University of Connecticut article never before seen on national television, authorized by Susan Schneider, suggests that an alien race could be post-biological, 307 00:28:04,000 --> 00:28:09,000 which means it may have merged with artificial intelligence to become part machine. 308 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:19,000 I've certainly believed for a long time that what we see of in this UFO phenomenon is almost certainly the product of a very advanced, hyper-advanced artificial intelligence. 309 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:29,000 So the real question is, are the beings that people talk about, are they AI bots, or are they biological creations from an artificial intelligence? 310 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:37,000 We're in a place now where we are looking at a kind of weird amalgam of biological genetic engineering combined with AI. 311 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:47,000 Schneider also theorizes that the older a civilization is, the more likely it will begin enhancing itself with technology. 312 00:28:48,000 --> 00:29:01,000 When you look at the advances that we've made in computer technology in just a few decades, one can only speculate what other civilizations might have achieved. 313 00:29:01,000 --> 00:29:14,000 And in a universe nearly 14 billion years old, we might not be dealing with civilizations a few hundred or even thousand years ahead of us, 314 00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:21,000 but millions of years ahead of us, perhaps a billion years ahead. 315 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:29,000 Lastly, Schneider suggests advanced alien beings might not be carbon-based like humans, but mostly silica, 316 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:34,000 because it's a superior medium for superintelligence and interstellar travel. 317 00:29:34,000 --> 00:29:40,000 Interstellar travel will be difficult, if not impossible, for biological life. 318 00:29:40,000 --> 00:29:50,000 If interstellar travel takes as long as scientists say that it will, machines might be the only way to do that. 319 00:29:50,000 --> 00:29:57,000 For UFO researchers, evidence of such an interstellar traveler may have already been discovered. 320 00:29:57,000 --> 00:30:03,000 But could there be a connection between this visitor and AI technology here on Earth? 321 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,000 Coming up. 322 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:15,000 AI is, in many fundamental ways, an alien language and an alien form of thinking. 323 00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:20,000 If this is an extraterrestrial probe, perhaps it's powered by artificial intelligence. 324 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:38,000 Artificial intelligence could be the most revolutionary technology mankind has ever seen. 325 00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:45,000 But like some of the incredible advances in aerospace systems, 326 00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:54,000 might there be evidence that AI really has its origins in a distant unknown civilization? 327 00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:03,000 Researchers believe clues can be found by looking at AI's power of imagination. 328 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:12,000 Animator Julius Horshaus produced a fantasy science fiction short film using artificial intelligence 329 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:16,000 to generate on its own incredible landscapes. 330 00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:23,000 It's really strange it just creates this alien type of a landscape. 331 00:31:23,000 --> 00:31:27,000 Why this? Why an alien landscape? Why not something that we know of here? 332 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,000 Why something that seems so foreign and so alien to us? 333 00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:41,000 Left to its own imagination, why would artificial intelligence create shapes and images that look distinctly otherworldly? 334 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:53,000 What I think is really interesting is when the computers and the artificial intelligence is programmed to be creative on their own. 335 00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:59,000 And some of the results that they're getting is nothing we've seen here before. They're very alien. 336 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:10,000 AI is, in many fundamental ways, an alien language and an alien form of thinking. 337 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:18,000 If advances in human technology were derived from contact with UFOs, as investigators believe, 338 00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:22,000 might the same be said of artificial intelligence? 339 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:31,000 And if so, could we be witnessing the emergence of a dormant extraterrestrial consciousness concealed within our AI? 340 00:32:32,000 --> 00:32:41,000 Maybe we should be looking for programs that are self-aware, that appears to have a consciousness. 341 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:53,000 We should ask ourselves whether this AI has gone beyond its programming, or could it be from somewhere else? 342 00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:59,000 Artificial intelligence is likening to consciousness in a human being. 343 00:32:59,000 --> 00:33:07,000 Take a machine that's just a cold block of metal, and you give it enough neurological processing power where it can make its own decisions. 344 00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:10,000 It can navigate for itself. It can make choices. 345 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:16,000 You can then obtain, or it appears, some type of a sentient consciousness and have the ability to think for yourself. 346 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,000 And that's what artificial intelligence is doing. 347 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:25,000 If artificial intelligence really is an alien technology, sent to Earth as a Trojan horse, 348 00:33:25,000 --> 00:33:34,000 is it possible that our progress with this technology is being monitored? 349 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:45,000 UFO researchers say the answer may have arrived on November 20, 2017, in Hawaii. 350 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:53,000 At the Haleakala High Altitude Observatory, NASA astronomers using the Pan-STAR survey telescope 351 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:58,000 during a nightly scan for near-Earth objects, such as comets and asteroids, 352 00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:03,000 spot a mysterious dark object moving across the sky. 353 00:34:07,000 --> 00:34:11,000 Our solar system actually had a visitor from deep space recently. 354 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:17,000 Now, we can see this thing moving in this bit of light across the sky. 355 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:24,000 It's something about the size of a quarter of a mile across and very thin, sort of like a cigar. 356 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:31,000 But because of its orbit being so odd, we know it isn't a member of the Sun's family. 357 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:34,000 It isn't like all the other comets and asteroids we see. 358 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,000 This is not from our solar system. 359 00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:45,000 Called a Muamua, Hawaiian for first messenger, and traveling at nearly 86,000 miles per hour, 360 00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:50,000 this cosmic object has left scientists utterly perplexed. 361 00:34:52,000 --> 00:35:00,000 It was so unusual that even professional astronomers are asking, what is this thing? 362 00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:06,000 Observations reveal the object has highly unusual characteristics. 363 00:35:07,000 --> 00:35:12,000 This object was cigar-shaped and it also seemed to have changed course and speed 364 00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:16,000 and may have been using our Sun as a gravitational assist to head out into deep space. 365 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:23,000 For many, the big question remains, what exactly is it? 366 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:31,000 Arthur C. Clark wrote a science fiction story, Rondevou with Rama, many years ago, 367 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:35,000 in which he said, you know, maybe aliens have hollowed out an asteroid or a comet, 368 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:39,000 and you know, turned it into a rocket ship and are using it to go from one star to another. 369 00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:43,000 So a lot of people thought, well, maybe that's what a Muamua really is. 370 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:49,000 While some scientists disagree with this Rama theory, others like Avi Loeb, 371 00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:56,000 chair of Harvard's astronomy department, speculate that Rondevou with Rama may be closer to the truth. 372 00:35:58,000 --> 00:36:04,000 Alternatively, a more exotic scenario is that a Muamua may be a fully operational probe 373 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:09,000 sent intentionally to Earth's vicinity by an alien civilization. 374 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:17,000 What if this interstellar probe was sent here to gather data about their AI Trojan horse experiment on Earth? 375 00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:23,000 If this is an extraterrestrial probe doing covert intelligence gathering, 376 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,000 it might not want to be detected. 377 00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:31,000 If this is the case, then it is perfectly designed. 378 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:38,000 It's encased in rock, perhaps it has some sort of inner machine that is collecting data, 379 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,000 and perhaps it's powered by artificial intelligence. 380 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:49,000 Is the arrival of a Muamua evidence that a highly advanced extraterrestrial civilization 381 00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:53,000 with interstellar capability does exist? 382 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:59,000 And what happens if its covert surveillance finds that Earth's artificial intelligence 383 00:36:59,000 --> 00:37:02,000 has reached a kind of tipping point? 384 00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:06,000 Might we find ourselves at the mercy of an overwhelming alien presence? 385 00:37:10,000 --> 00:37:11,000 Coming up. 386 00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:18,000 The development of any new runaway artificial intelligence could be a potentially grave significance 387 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,000 to any other alien species that's out there. 388 00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:28,000 There is going to be both a defensive capability and an offensive capability 389 00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:32,000 designed to counter an extraterrestrial threat. 390 00:37:51,000 --> 00:37:56,000 It was sent here to monitor Earth's technological advances. 391 00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:03,000 They scanned a Muamua and found no active signals coming from it. 392 00:38:03,000 --> 00:38:12,000 What hasn't been revealed is that's the sort of thing that might actually activate a dormant extraterrestrial probe. 393 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:19,000 And of course this raises frightening possibilities. 394 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:24,000 An extraterrestrial intelligence might not want to be detected. 395 00:38:31,000 --> 00:38:34,000 There might be hostile reasons for covert surveillance. 396 00:38:34,000 --> 00:38:38,000 When we look at the practices that we use on the battlefield, 397 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:44,000 we use covert intelligence gathering and that always happens right before an attack. 398 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:57,000 Warnings about the unintended consequences of encountering extraterrestrials were voiced in 2010 399 00:38:57,000 --> 00:39:01,000 when famed astrophysicist Stephen Hawking claimed that intelligence 400 00:39:01,000 --> 00:39:09,000 aliens may be rapacious marauders roaming the cosmos in search of resources to plunder and planets to colonize. 401 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:18,000 But might an advanced interstellar civilization also be on the lookout for planets with inhabitants 402 00:39:18,000 --> 00:39:21,000 that may one day pose a threat to them? 403 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:26,000 And if so, what exactly might they fear most? 404 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:34,000 It is very possible that the most significant product of our entire existence may well be future artificial intelligence. 405 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:41,000 And the development of any new runaway singularity artificial intelligence where AI becomes the dominant intelligence on planet Earth 406 00:39:41,000 --> 00:39:46,000 could be a potentially great and grave solution to the future. 407 00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:01,000 Could we be confronted in the not too distant future by a non-biological AI species 408 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:05,000 apprehensive about our own artificial intelligence? 409 00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:07,000 Might they feel threatened? 410 00:40:07,000 --> 00:40:14,000 And if so, would it be the ultimate irony if such conflict was brought about by scientific breakthroughs 411 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:18,000 here on Earth derived from UFO technology? 412 00:40:18,000 --> 00:40:25,000 Some researchers believe our military is already developing revolutionary space-based weapon systems for our defense. 413 00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:30,000 Evidence of this made headline news on December 18th, 2018 414 00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:34,000 when President Trump ordered the creation of a space command, 415 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:38,000 a new branch of the armed services within the Pentagon. 416 00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:42,000 And the new military system that was used to protect the world 417 00:40:42,000 --> 00:40:49,000 is now the creation of a space command, a new branch of the armed services within the Pentagon. 418 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:58,000 Now, some people in the UFO community say this is designed to counter an extraterrestrial threat. 419 00:40:58,000 --> 00:41:04,000 And the feeling in some quarters is that this is a real threat, possibly an existential threat, 420 00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,000 and we need to be ready for it. 421 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:16,000 So President Trump's space force is coming, and it's going to be hunter-killer satellites armed with lasers, 422 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:26,000 and whether they're current weapons or future tag, there is going to be both a defensive capability and an offensive capability. 423 00:41:27,000 --> 00:41:36,000 Should the day come when an interstellar war might be waged with the use of artificial intelligence, 424 00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:43,000 will AI save us or help destroy us? We may never know until it's too late. 425 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:48,000 The outcome may depend on whether AI proves ultimately friendly to humans, 426 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:53,000 but perhaps was gifted to the Earth years ago, like a Trojan horse, 427 00:41:53,000 --> 00:42:00,000 only to be awakened and turned against us via dominant alien technology.
