Hey you guys, welcome to a midweek madness Wednesday episode of Dangerous Conversations with me and my son James. What’s up, James? How’s it going? And today I don’t know what the topic is going to be about, but James has chosen something that is important to him, stuff he and his friends are talking about, and I want to get on the get in on the conversation.
So, what are we talking about, James? Today we’re going to be talking about artificial intelligence AI and the role it plays in our lives and some of the really cool new things that it’s able to do and also kind of just the things that we have to question and wonder if this is a good thing or a bad thing. Mhm. Yeah. I I I I’m so curious too and I know that guys like Elon Musk who own AI companies are warning that it could be the very thing that could take us out.
But he says not to worry about it. He thinks it can be programmed for good and and um not only for evil. Yeah. I have a clip from Elon we’re actually going to be playing. Okay, cool. Let’s get into it. Uh what are some of AI’s capabilities? Okay, one of the things is China is using AI facial recognition to track 1.
4 billion of its people and see what they’re doing. And they’re putting their behavior and scoring it into a app and it’s called social score. social credit system. So the better socially you are, the higher your point will be in. So they’re basically watching you and spying on you every moment of your day. Yeah. Take a look at this video.
Everywhere she goes, O Yang Howu is followed. What she buys, how she behaves, is tracked and scored to show how responsible and trustworthy she is. It’s called the social credit system. And in one version now being tested, a person’s reputation is scored on a scale of 350 to 950. And how you with a good score of 752 is okay with it.
