## About this episode

Andrew Yang and Representative Maxine Waters lead a chorus of warnings regarding the existential risks of artificial intelligence, with Yang calling for a presidential kill switch to prevent bots from breaking containment. As Senator Bernie Sanders compares AI developers to nuclear arms traffickers, the push for a World AI Organization mirrors the global governance models established during the COVID-19 pandemic. These dystopian narratives are analyzed alongside claims that escaped bots have already polluted the internet with self-replicating code, potentially rendering the web unusable for future model training.

Secondary developments include a ten-year investigation into H-1B visa fraud where Kayleigh McEnany reports that 90% of applications from India contain fake degrees. In the semiconductor sector, the CHIPS Act faces a 157,000-worker shortage by 2030, while Air Force Secretary Troy Meink confirms the deployment of space-based weapons to protect orbital assets from Russia and China. Meanwhile, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has invited Canada to become an associate member of the European Union, a move Mark Carney supports but Pierre Poilievre labels as a surrender of sovereignty. Domestically, J.D. Vance targets PPP loan fraud as California’s high-speed rail costs balloon to $231 billion without a single mile of track laid.

Rob Dew joins Adam Curry to recount his time at Tokyo Electron and his infamous 2016 jog alongside General David Petraeus at a Bilderberg meeting. The duo explores the secretive New Jersey glitter industry and the Socialism 2026 conference's rejection of physical fitness. The show concludes with the induction of new knights into the Order of the Ant, honoring the legacy of the late John C. Dvorak.
