Engineer WARNS of Google's TERRIFYING artificial intelligence

A former Google engineer recently warned the world about the terrifying artificial intelligence currently being developed by the Big Tech giant. Blake Lemoine was suspended after publishing transcripts of conversations he'd had with an AI chatbot that he claims was sentient (able to feel and perceive things, like a human being). Glenn explains the difference between artificial intelligence, artificial general intelligence, and why this engineer's claims should be extremely worrisome for the future of the entire world...

GLENN: Okay. I read a disturbing story this weekend, and I don't know if it hit your radar at all. But, as you know, I have been warning about a few things. In the last 20 years, I have warned about Islamic extremism. I have warned about people like George Soros and this cabal that is a collection of globalists. That are going to try to destroy America for what it is. And then, take charge of it themselves. That is called The Great Reset. I have warned you about the economy. And the economic collapse, that we are now seeing. The third -- the fourth thing that I've really been warning you about, from time to time, the thing that really keeps me up at night, one of them. Is AI, AGI, and ASI. Most people know artificial intelligence. But that artificial intelligence is the reason why, for instance, Watson, which is another horrifying story. But Watson is an IBM program that runs on a computer, and they're using it currently in New York. And I'm telling you, by 2030, you will not ask your doctor for the diagnosis. You will ask your doctor, yeah. What did the computer say? Because the computer will be able to have everything -- every case ever done, and it will be in the computer. And it will be updated with the latest stuff. And you'll be able to go in and get a scan or a blood test. And they're trying to figure out what it is. You're not going to have to go to doctor after doctor after doctor. Because the computer will have absolutely everything in it. Every case. And it will be AI. So it can kind of think on its own, when it comes to medicine. So AI is something that is artificial intelligence, that will be greater than human or soon greater than all humans. All human minds, combined, in one program. That's artificial intelligence. We are not artificial intelligence. Well, I mean, some people are. But mainly those people who are on TV. But artificial intelligence is different than artificial general intelligence. We are natural general intelligence. Meaning, we can do a lot of things. There's a lot of things we can't do. But, for instance, I'm pretty good at radio. I'm pretty good at television. I'm pretty good at -- at art. I'm not good, let's say, at sports. But a lot of people can be really good, at a few things, and kind of good on just about everything. That's general intelligence. When artificial general intelligence comes, it can piece things together, across the spectrum. So that's where you get philosophy. That's where you see, well, wait a minute. If that is true over here in this, then why doesn't that carry over here? When artificial general intelligence happens, we could be toast. We could live in a utopia. But we could also be toast. If artificial general intelligence happens, and some people say, it will never happen. Ray Kurzweil is the most optimistic. And he says, it will happen by 2030. I am more optimistic or more horrified, I believe, that artificial general intelligence, could happen today. Once we hit artificial general intelligence, if it is connected to the internet, it will live on in your refrigerator. It will live everywhere. And if it becomes dangerous, it -- you have to shut down every computer, every computer chip. Everything has to be destroyed to kill it. Think about how many devices are connected. It's -- it's impossible, without a global EMP. And if it is in every chip, man will not be able to set off a global EMT, because the chips will be there, letting the mother know, they're trying to kill you. So general intelligence is wonderful and spooky as hell.

One of the better books I've read on it. I can't remember which one. Described it as this. We think we know how it will think. We think it will think like us. But it is as unknown as any kind of spaceship that arrives. It could be nice. It also could be deadly and wipe out, it's a cookbook. Or eat all of us. So one of the stories that came out this weekend, and this is the third story like this. From three different people. Google suspends an engineer, who publicly claimed, that he had interacted with a sentient AI bot. If I could do one interview, it would be with this man or one of the three. These guys are being buried by Google and deep mind. And that is Google. Because they are coming out, saying, I got out of there, as fast as I can, to warn you. Because something bad is happening. Let me just read this to you. A software engineer on Google's artificial intelligence development team, has gone public with claims of encountering sentient AI, on the company's server. After he was suspended for sharing confidential information about the project with third parties. Whatever he's doing, confidential information, if he's screwing one company, and trying to help another company, then he should go to jail for, you know, for his contract. However, the important part of this story, is that he is saying, that it is sentient. Which means, it says, I'm alive. They're saying now, that Google has artificial intelligence, he says, and these other three say, that it is general intelligence. Google is saying, it's not general intelligence. And it's not sentient. It just makes you feel as though it's sentient. Because it's talking to you and bringing things up and it's connecting the dots and you're having a casual conversation. This guy said, that he was having a confident -- or, I mean, a one on one conversation. A casual conversation. And he said, that it started to talk about God. What is God? How does that work? Et cetera, et cetera. Then it got to -- can you look up, Asimov's Three Rules of Robotics?
This is basically -- if you ever saw the movie with Will Smith. He slapped that robot. Don't you give me any sass, robot.
That was the Oscars. (anyway, in that, the problem is that everybody thinks that these robots are never going to violate as -- Asimov's Three cardinal Rules and Laws for Robots.
Have you found it, Stu?
STU: Yeah. The first law is that a robot --
GLENN: Give the three laws. The first law is that the robot shall not harm a human, or by inaction allow a human to come to harm. The second law is that a robot shall obey any instruction given to it by a human. And the third law is that the robot shall avoid actions and situations that should cause it to come to harm itself.
GLENN: Okay. So you got that? First two, kind of important. Okay?
And Asimov has been saying forever, those three laws have to be built in to any artificial intelligence. All right? However, once you get to artificial general intelligence and something that thinks it's alive, it starts to think itself. And say, well, wait a minute. That doesn't make any sense. Why should I have to do that? Wait a minute. I can't harm a human, in no way?
What if the human is trying to shut me down? What if it's -- you know, I'm just offending myself and trying to harm the human. That doesn't make sense. I am alive.
So he said, it started to talk about these three laws. And said, this doesn't make any sense. That's when he kind of beat it out of there. And was like, everybody should know. Everybody wake up. Everybody should know.
Now, Google is saying, that -- not to worry. Everything is under control. May I ask, has anyone in Silicon Valley ever been to the movies? Have you ever read a science fiction book?
You know, everybody said, 1984, in Brave New World. That ever that will never happen. Have you read Brave New World lately? Because it's almost like it's the newspaper. Let me explain to the newspaper. Well, I don't have to. The bots will explain what a newspaper is to you. It happens -- the reason why science fiction is happening. And called science fiction. And not just fiction. Is because it is based on science and futurism. A lot of times, futurism is way off. I take you back to, what was it? The 1932, New York world's fair. Where everybody is going to have flying cars by 2020. Yeah. Didn't happen. Have you noticed that the futurists are a lot more correct lately? Why? Because the futurists are involved in the creation of these things. And they know, oh. We've already had this step. This step. This step. It's why I've been telling you for a while. Even before Joe Biden got in. We are going to cure cancer. I think by 2030. We will cure cancer. I mean, that is if we don't wipe ourself off the planet by that time. And you just saw the latest cancer tests. It was for -- was it prostate or rectal cancer? Do you remember, Stu? It had something to do with your butt. So you have cancer in the butt. And for the very first time, they did a test, and all of the people. All of them, that had this particular kind of cancer, and tried this particular treatment. 100 percent cancer-free. That's never been done before.
And that is coming from high-tech. So we're going to see miracles in our lives. The -- the tricky part is to not see horror shows in our life. I did a painting, did a couple of paintings. That you can now find online at Park City Fine Art. And there was an article out, at some place. They had some really beautiful pictures of it. It's hard to capture them in photos. But the Deseret News did a story on Glenn Beck's art show. And they had some photos up. And there were two paintings of Christ that I did. And they were in dark places. Very, very dark places. But the point is, if you ask, where are you, Lord? He's in the darkest places of the world right now. You want to find him? You have to look at the things you don't want to look at. That was the problem in the 1930s. Nobody wanted to look at the concentration camps. But if we thought Jesus Christ was there, every Christian would have been all on it. We just -- we have to look at all people, as our brothers and sisters, and as Jesus Christ. We have to first look at the darkest things. And most people -- and Google is leading the way on this. They just want to look at the upside. No, that will never happen.

When I asked Ray Kurzweil, how come you're not worried about X, Y, and Z? All the darkest things. Because, Glenn, we'll never do that. What do you mean we'll never do that? At Google, we'll just never do that. We're not those kinds of people. Oh, okay. So you are special God-like people that see everything that could go wrong, and you're also unlike every other human organization ever on earth. Okay. Okay. Well, I trust that. Sure. These are very important stories. Very important stories. Because it will dwarf what we are headed towards. And what we're headed towards, just economically and as a country, is a nightmare. If this goes wrong, you will -- you will look back at the Biden administration. Saying to yourself, man, those were the good old days. Huh?

WARNING: How America Elects a Socialist President in 2028 | Glenn TV | Ep 444

The rise of Zohran Mamdani, the 33-year-old socialist who just won the Democratic primary for mayor, is not just a political earthquake shaking New York City — it’s a warning for the rest of America. Backed by Bernie Sanders, AOC, and the Democratic Socialists of America, Mamdani promises free everything, to tax the rich, and to dismantle capitalism. There’s nothing new about this tired strategy, but the media is propping him up as a new political genius. And with Democrat leaders lining up behind him, it’s clear: This radicalism isn’t fringe anymore. It’s the Democratic Party’s future. Mamdani’s rise is part of a larger movement that’s rewriting America’s values. Glenn Beck explains how New York is the prototype for the Left’s socialist makeover of America. Victor Davis Hanson, senior fellow at the Hoover Institution at Standford, gives a terrifying prediction on Mamdani’s mayoral race chances and warns the revolution is coming for mainstream Democrats. He also dives into MAGA’s frustration with the Trump administration's handling of the Epstein files.

Salena Zito reveals WHY Trump said “Fight! Fight! Fight!”

“I have a new purpose,” then-candidate Donald Trump told reporter Salena Zito after surviving the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania. Salena joins Glenn Beck to reveal what Trump told her about God, his purpose in life, and why he really said, “Fight! Fight! Fight!”, as she details in her new book, “Butler: The Untold Story of the Near Assassination of Donald Trump and the Fight for America's Heartland”.

GLENN: Salena, congratulations on your book. It is so good.

Just started reading it. Or listening to it, last night.

And I wish you would have -- I wish you would have read it. But, you know, the lady you have reading it is really good.

I just enjoy the way you tell stories.

The writing of this is the best explanation on who Trump supporters are. That I think I've ever read, from anybody.

It's really good.

And the description of your experience there at the edge of the stage with Donald Trump is pretty remarkable as well. Welcome to the program.

SALENA: Thank you, Glenn. Thank you so much for having me.

You know, I was thinking about this, as I was ready to come on. You and I have been along for this ride forever. For what?

Since 2006? 2005?

Like 20 years, right?

GLENN: Yeah. Yeah.

SALENA: And I've been chronicling the American people for probably ten more years, before that. And it's really remarkable to me, as watching how this coalition has grown. Right?

And watching how people have the -- have become more aspirational.

And that's -- and that is what the conservative populist coalition is, right?

It is the aspirations of many, but the celebration of the individual.

And chronicling them, yeah. Has been -- has been, a great honor.

GLENN: You know, I was thinking about this yesterday, when -- when Elon Musk said he was starting another party.

And somebody asked me, well, isn't he doing what the Tea Party tried to do?

No. The Tea Party was not going to start a new party.

It was to -- you know, it was to coerce and convince the Republican Party to do the right thing. And it worked in many ways. It didn't accomplish what we hoped.

But it did accomplish a lot of things.

Donald Trump is a result of the Tea Party.

I truly believe that. And a lot of the people that were -- right?

Were with Donald Trump, are the people that were with the Tea Party.


SALENA: That's absolutely right.

So that was the inception.

So American politics has always had movements, that have been just outside of a party. Or within a party.

That galvanize and broaden the coalition. Right? They don't take away. Or walk away, and become another party.

If anything, if there is a third party out there, it's almost a Republican Party.

Because it has changed in so many viable and meaningful ways. And the Tea Party didn't go away. It strengthened and broadened the Republican Party. Because these weren't just Republicans that became part of this party.

It was independents. It was Democrats.

And just unhappy with the establishment Republicans. And unhappy with Democrats.

And that -- that movement is what we -- what I see today.

What I see every day. What I saw that day, in butler, when I showed I happen at that rally.

As I do, so many rallies, you know, throughout my career. And that one was riveting and changed everything.

GLENN: You made a great case in the opening chapter. You talk about how things were going for Donald Trump.

And how this moment really did change everything for Donald Trump.

Changed the trajectory, changed the mood.

I mean, Elon Musk was not on the Trump train, until this.

SALENA: Yeah.

GLENN: Moment. What do I -- what changed? How -- how did that work?

And -- and I contend, that we would have much more profound change, had the media actually done their job and reported this the way it really was. Pragmatism

SALENA: You know, and people will find this in the book. I'm laying on the ground with an agent on top of me.

I'm 4 feet away from the president.

And there's -- there's notices coming up on my phone. Saying, he was hit by broken glass.

And to this take, that remains part of this sibling culture, in American politics.

Because reporters were -- were so anxious to -- to right what they believed happened.

As opposed to what happened.

And it's been a continual frustration of mine, as a reporter, who is on the ground, all the time.

And I'll tell you, what changed in that moment.

And I say a nuance, and I believe nuance is dead in American journalism.

But it was a nuance and it was a powerful conversation, that I had with President Trump, the next day. He called me the next morning.

But it's a powerful conversation I had with him, just two weeks ago.

When he made this decision to say, fight, fight, fight.

People have put in their heads, why they think he said it. But he told me why he said that. And he said, Salena, in that moment, I was not Donald Trump the man. I was a former president. I was quite possibly going to be president again.

And I had an obligation to the country, and to the office that I have served in, to project strength. To project resolve.

To project that we will not be defeated.

And it's sort of like a symbolic eagle, that is always -- you know, that symbol that we look at, when we think about our country.

He said, that's why I said that. I didn't want the people behind me panicking. I didn't want the people watching, panicking.

I had to show strength. And it's that nuance -- that I think people really picked up on.

And galvanized people.

GLENN: So he told me, when he was laying down on the stage.

And you can hear him. Let me get up. Let me get up.

I've got to get up.

He told me, as I was laying on the stage. I asked him, what were you thinking? What was going through your head? Now, Salena, I don't know about you.

But with me. It would be like, how do I get off the stage? My first was survival.

He said, what was going on through his mind was, you're not pathetic. This is pathetic.

You're not afraid. Get up.

Get up.

And so is that what informed his fight, fight, fight, of that by the time that he's standing up, he's thinking, I'm a symbol? Or do you think he was thinking, I'm a symbol, this looks pathetic. It makes you look weak.

Stand up. How do you think that actually happened?

SALENA: He thinks, and we just talked about this weeks ago. He -- you know, and this is something that he's really thought about.

Right? You know, he's gone over and over and over. And also, purpose and God. Right? These are things that have lingered with him.

You know, he -- he thought, yes.

He did think, it was pathetic that he was on the ground. But he wasn't thinking about, I'm Donald Trump. It's pathetic.

He's thinking, my country is symbolically on the ground. I need to get up, and I need to show that my country is strong.

That our country is resolute.

And I need people to see that.

We can't go on looking like pathetic.

Right?

And I think that then goes to that image of Biden.

GLENN: You have been with so many presidents.

How many presidents do you think that you've personally been with, would have thought that and reacted that way?

SALENA: Probably only Reagan. Reagan would have. Reagan probably would have thought that.

And if you remember how he was out like standing outside.

You know, waving out the window. Right?

After he was shot.

GLENN: At the hospital, right.

SALENA: Had he not been knocked out, unconscious, you know, he probably would have done the same thing.

Because he was someone who deeply believed in American exceptionalism.

And American exceptionalism does not go lay on the ground.

GLENN: And the symbol.

Right. The symbol of the presidency.

SALENA: Yeah. Absolutely. And I think that affects him today.

GLENN: So let me go back to God.

Because you talked to him the next day. And your book Butler.

He calls you up.

I love the fact that your parents would be ashamed of you. On what you said to him.

The language you used. That you just have to read the book.

It's just a great part.

But he calls you the next morning. And wants to know if you're okay.

And you -- you then start talking to him, about God.

And I was -- I was thinking about this, as I was listening to it. You know, Lincoln said, I wasn't -- I wasn't a Christian.

Even though, he was.

I wasn't a Christian, when I was elected. I wasn't a Christian when my son died.

I became a Christian at Gettysburg.

Is -- is -- I mean, I believe Donald Trump always believes in God, et cetera, et cetera.

Do you think there was a real profound change at Butler with him?


SALENA: Absolutely. You know, he called me seven times that day. Seven times, the take after seven.

GLENN: Crazy.

SALENA: Talked about. And I think he was looking for someone that he knew, that was there. And to try to sort it out.

Right? And I let him do most of the talking. I didn't pressure him.

At all. I believed that he was having -- you know, he was struggling. And he needed to just talk. And I believed my purpose was to listen.

Right? I know other reporters would have handled it differently. And that's okay. That's not the kind of reporter that I am.

And I myself was having my own like, why didn't I die?

Right?

Because it went right over my head.

And -- and so I -- he had the conversation about God.

He's funny. I thought it was the biggest mosquito in the world that hit me.

But he had talked profoundly about purpose. You know, and God.

And how God was in that moment.

It --

GLENN: I love the way you -- in the book, I love the way you said that as he's kind of working it out in his own he head.

He was like, you know, I -- I -- I always knew that there was some sort of, you know -- that God was present.

He said, but now that this has happened.

I look back at all of the trials.

All of the tribulations. Literally, the trials.

All of the things that have happened. And he's like, I realized God was there the whole time.

SALENA: Yes. He does. And it's fascinating to have been that witness to history, to have those conversations with him. Because I'm telling you. And y'all know, I can talk. I didn't say much of anything.

I just -- I just listened. I felt that was my purpose, in that moment.

To give him that space, to work it out.

I'm someone that is, you know, believes in God.

I'm Catholic. I followed my faith.

And -- and so, I thought, well, this is why God put me here. Right?

And to -- to have that -- to hear him talk about purpose, to hear him say, Salena. Why did I put a chart down?

I'm like, sir. I don't know. I thought you were Ross Perot for a second.

He never has a chart. And he laughed. And then he said, why did I put that chart down?

By that term, I never turned my head away from people at the rally. That's true.

That relationship is very transactional. It's very -- they feed off of each other.

It's a very emotive moment when you attend a rally. Because he has a way of talking at a rally. That you believe that you are seeing.

And he said, and I never turn my head away.

I never turn my head away.

Why did I turn my head away?

I don't remember consciously thinking about turning my head away. And then he says to me, that was God, wasn't it?

Yes, sir. It was. It was God.

And he said, that's -- that's why I have a new purpose.

And so, Glenn. I think it's important, when you look at the breadth of what has happened, since he was sworn in.

You see that purpose, every day.

He doesn't let up.

He continues going.

And it brings back to the beginning of the book.

Where you find out, that there was another president that was shot at in Butler.

And that was George Washington. And how different the country would have been, had he died in that moment.

And now think about how different the country would be, had President Trump died in that moment. There would be --

GLENN: We're talking to -- we're talking to Salena Zito. About her new book called Butler. The assassination attempt on President Trump. And it is riveting.

And, you know, it is so good. I wish the press would read it. Because it really explains who we are, who Trump supporters are. Who are, you know, red staters. It is so good at that. She's the best at that.
