Discussions about democracy probably started in Athens about 2500 years ago. A truism is that society is democratic to the extent that its citizens play a meaningful role in managing public affairs. Democracy is located within the capitalist economic system, infamous for producing colossal inequality. There's no level playing field, as great income and wealth translate into political power for the haves at the expense of the have-nots. We have procedural democracy: elections, broadcast debates, primaries, etc. Citizens are largely marginalized, overwhelmed by big money and powerful lobbies. Look at the widespread demand to ban assault weapons of war, for universal single-payer health care, to protect the environment, and for affordable housing. People want those things but elites have a simple message. Vote. Then go home and leave everything to us. Actual democracy is hollowed out. A Davos-type class rules.

Een Europese oorlog met Rusland, het einde van de oude wereldorde en de onthullingen rond de Epstein-files. In deze Holland Gold Maandupdate spreekt Yael Potjer met Sander Boon over de meest opvallende geopolitieke ontwikkelingen en machtsverschuivingen. Ze bespreken onder meer de NAVO, de strategie van Donald Trump, de speech van Mark Carney op het World Economic Forum, de ideeën van Ursula von der Leyen en de toekomst van de Europese Unie.Ook komt de toespraak van Marco Rubio aan bod, waarin de Verenigde Staten volgens Sander de hand uitsteken naar Europa voor een alliantie op basis van gedeelde waarden. Tegelijkertijd plaatst hij vraagtekens bij de koers van Ursula von der Leyen, die volgens hem mogelijk andere plannen heeft voor de toekomst van Europa. Volgens hem woedt er een fundamentele strijd over de waarden van het Westen.Daarnaast bespreken Yael en Sander de vraag of Europa daadwerkelijk afstevent op een oorlog met Rusland, nu de oorlogsretoriek toeneemt en er steeds nadrukkelijker wordt ingezet op de opbouw van de Europese oorlogsindustrie. Is de kans op verdere escalatie met Rusland reëel?Tot slot bespreken zij de belangrijkste lessen uit de Epstein-files en de mogelijke consequenties van deze openbaringen. Ook komt de rol van goud in een nieuwe wereldorde aan bod.Bekijk de website van Sander Boon: https://boonknopers.com/Volg Sander op X: https://x.com/Sander_O_BoonOverweegt u om goud en zilver aan te kopen?

SPEAKERS Teddy Nappen, Speaker 2 Teddy Nappen  00:17 I’m Teddy Nappen, and welcome to Gun Lawyer. I wanted to kind of address this to the audience, as this has been kind of brushed over. There’s been multiple mass shootings, but there was one that caught my eye. They are trying to effectively bury in the stories. Like, I don’t even see it that much coming the news. The mass shooting in Canada! Every single one of the Left’s arguments on how to stop a mass shooting, everything that they push for, demonstrated in Canada failed. The Left always argues that stricter gun laws will prevent a mass shooting. If it saves one life. Even though  2.7 million lives are saved with self-defense uses of a firearm. If it saves one life. They always argue the accessibility of firearms –  that’s what leads to mass shootings. Teddy Nappen  01:15 So, I want to kind of lean into this story where nine people were shot and killed, 27 were injured in the mass shooting in Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia. (https://www.junonews.com/p/exclusive-family-confirms-identity) It was a man identifying as a woman, which, you know, that’s one of the other reasons why they’re burying the story. It doesn’t fit the narrative of the straight, white, right wing conservative as the shooter. So, obviously we can’t talk about it. You hear from the North District Commander Ken Floyd of the gun person. Yeah, person. Always good to not misgender the school shooter. He murdered his mother, but also shot his step brother as well. Don’t bring up that fact. Also, a troubled house life, and the school that he shot up, of course, he was thrown out of the school. Police had been called to the home multiple times. They had multiple instances with this individual who had reported mental health problems. Huh, interesting. Teddy Nappen  02:21 Oh, and it gets better. So, the suspect had a firearm license, which, by the way, in Canada, you cannot possess a firearm for self-defense – only hunting. Keep that in mind. Supposedly, the guns recovered were a long gun and a “modified handgun”. They don’t go into details as to what was modified. So, the suspect, the shooter, the man identifying as a woman, I’m going to repeat that, the suspect had dropped out of the Tumbler Ridge Secondary School four years ago and was not a student at the time. So, police had attended the suspect’s residence multiple times in the past several years, dealing with mental health occurrences. Hmm, wonder why? When he started identifying as a woman? You know, that usually leads to that 42% suicide rate. The only group that is close to that rate is paranoid schizophrenics. But you know, facts are transphobic and homophobic, apparently. This included one of the attendants where, two years ago, the firearms were seized under criminal code. He was Red Flagged! Oh, he had multiple mental health instances. So, obviously we’ve got to seize his guns. The very argument by the Left to stop mass shootings. But, of course, because the man identified as a woman, then of course, well, we can’t, we don’t want to be transphobic. Let’s give him, oh, sorry, her back his firearms. Teddy Nappen  03:53 And, of course, suspect was born a biological male and then started transitioning six years ago. So, six years  ago, he started transitioning and identified as a woman. Two years ago, the firearms are seized, so then he can say, oh, sorry, I think I’m a woman, so give me back my firearms, even though the police have come multiple times for multiple mental health incidents. Other than that, though, let’s give him back his guns. So, right there we have a clear demonstration of the fact that his firearms were seized and then he got, you know, Red Flagged. They actually have it. I pulled the law under their Public Safety website emergency prohibition order. (https://www.publicsafety.gc.ca/cnt/cntrng-crm/frrms/rd-flg-lws-en.aspx) A judge issues the order if they believe the individual poses a risk to themselves or others. When the order was issued, firearms, and firearm license and other documents and other weapons may be removed up to 30 days, and you have a hearing date. He goes to the hearing date and says, I want my guns back. And here they are given back and then does the shooting. The level. It’s just so disgusting. The system works every time. He got the guns back, and then boom, goes right into a mass shooting. Teddy Nappen  05:12 By the way, Canada is one of the most strictest places you could find for a firearm. You cannot get firearms for self-defense uses. They ban every form of semi-auto possible. Their laws are extremely, extremely difficult in order to get firearms. Also, Trudeau did a freeze on the sale, purchase, or transfer of handguns, stopping all handgun purchases. It’s still in effect. So, you can’t get a handgun to defend yourself. You have no means of purchase except for hunting, and every single one of the anti-gun, the gun rights oppressors, the Left’s whole argument about trying to stop mass shootings. We need all of these things. Well, Canada had all these things. A ban on extended mags. All the bans that you could have on every semi-auto possible, and it still wasn’t enough. And still led to a mass shooting. Every protocol failed. Teddy Nappen  06:13 And by the way, this isn’t the first. Quite frankly, Canada is the inventor of the mass shooter. On December 6, 1989, at Montreal’s Ecole Polytechnique 14 women were killed as a student went through shooting up the place. (https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/polytechnique-tragedy) And that was their justification for all their anti-gun agendas. This is what they said, oh, we’ve got to go after firearms. He just walked through the school and just started shooting the people. They had no means of defense. Then in 2006 a gunman killed one woman and injured 19 others at Montreal college being (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2006/sep/15/topstories3.internationaleducationnews) He was shot dead by the police saying he wanted to die like Romeo and Juliet. Okay. The man must have been an acting major, a fan of Shakespeare. Teddy Nappen  07:00 And then cut to, I love this one. In 2020, Canada’s deadliest mass shooting. The shooter was Gabriel Wortman. His wife, Lisa Banfield, goes into details in her book, “The First Survivor: Life With Canada’s Deadliest Mass Shooter.” Wortman walks through and kills 22 people in the span of 13 hours, dressed up as a Mountie. He went across a 200 kilometer stretch. Shooting people for 13 hours, 13 hours. Going up and down, shooting and killing people. And no one was there to defend themselves. No one has any guns. This is in 2020. But the Left doesn’t want you to know that. Teddy Nappen  07:44 Just like they don’t want you to know that every time when they hailed Venezuela as the great socialist experiment, when you have Bernie Sanders, who was honeymooning in the Soviet Union and arguing that Cuba has the best healthcare. They always move the goal post or they’ll memory hole it. Trying to make the argument. Oh, this doesn’t fit the narrative. So, we can’t talk about this. That’s how disgusting these people are. And by the way, they even have their mandatory buyback program in Canada. By the way, it’s a complete failure, too. They got like 200 guns. No one’s complying. And that was the thing that The Trace even argued. They said that the hardest part about running a mandatory gun buyback is compliance. Because unless you’re going to go door to door at the barrel of a gun and stealing people’s property, gun buybacks, mandatory gun buyback programs fail every time. So, this ends the debate. This factually ends the debate that every single means of gun control that they argue to stop a mass shooting will not stop a mass shooting. Teddy Nappen  08:52 Not to mention that it is part of our culture where guns are. It’s, yeah, I’m trying to remember the numbers, and it was like 350 million. I can but it’s the we already have a mass number of firearms in the United States. So, the Nirvana fallacy, logical fallacy of trying to argue, if we just get rid of all the guns, there’ll be no mass shootings. No. Because the Left need to understand that there is evil in this world. There is evil. Yeah, they always say. They always try to justify it. Like, oh, I’m poor, I’m impoverished, I’m an illegal who came to this country. They always argue that, trying to justify evil and just accepting the fact. They try to mislabel evil. There is evil in this world, and you have to accept that there will always be terrible people wanting to commit terrible acts. Cut to, you know, taking a car and just running into a crowd of people at a Christmas parade. Cut to the U.K. with random stabbings and their mass pile of rapes that they don’t want to talk about. There will always be evil in this world, and they have to accept it. That is what needs to be brought. So, going on that cheery note, let’s talk about our good friends at WeShoot. Teddy Nappen  10:19 Well, WeShoot is a range in Lakewood. It’s an indoor range where both myself and my father go to shoot. We love to go there. WeShoot is conveniently located right off the Parkway. They have some cool specials that I want to tell you about. The Smith M&P 9M 2.0 Compact is ready to roll. They have that. They’re also offering an M&P 9M 2.0 in metal. So, you can have your choice in metal or polymer. There is the Vortex Triumph, which is in all new optics. Pretty cool. The Vortex makes some good stuff. My father has some Vortex on his guns. They also have the Ross Martin RM1C, which is a striker fire, compact pistol that is really taking the gun world by storm. You should check out the Ross Martin. It’s a really good gun. And, of course, you want to check out the WeShoot girls. They’re featuring a number of folk, including Kristen Fernicola. Go to their website, www.weshootusa.com.

You can go some fantastic training, too. Great pro shop right there in Lakewood, New Jersey. weshootusa.com. Teddy Nappen  11:44 I also want to mention our good friends at The Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. (ANJRPC.org) They’re quite busy fighting in the courts and with the legislation in Trenton. Murphy’s gone, but we did get some new laws. Of course, it’s a very tough environment, but we all get some changes that are critical. I’m glad to see modifications, although completely stopping when the folk have all the power is tough. The Association has made a big difference. We’re thankful, too. Because without The Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs, we would have no unified voice of an umbrella organizations, of our clubs and organizations. You need to be a member of The Association of New Jersey Rifle & Pistol Clubs. Go to anjrpc.org and join today. You’ll get a newsletter. The best newsletter in the state on guns. You’ll see email alerts, and you’ll know that what’s going on when it comes to our gun rights in New Jersey. That’s anjrpc.org. Teddy Nappen  12:39 I would also like to shamelessly plug my father’s book, which is New Jersey Gun Law. The Bible in New Jersey gun law. It’s over 500 pages with 120 topics, all questions and answers. It’s your guidebook to not becoming a GOFU in New Jersey. And man, let me tell you some of the times people call up and ask, and it’s after the fact. I’m like, did you read the book? Did you read the book? We’ll still fight and defend you, but it would have been a lot easier if you never had the problem in the first place. And most of the clients would agree with that, I’m afraid. So, get your copy of the book today. Go to EvanNappen.com,  EvanNappen.com. Get your copy of New Jersey Gun Law. Teddy Nappen  13:23 So, let’s get to Press Checks. As you know, Press Checks are always free. This is something I find very important, because I think people are forgetting, when the Left had their unfettered power. That’s why you’re seeing a lot of the Left moving to the trying to pivot to the center. Saying, like, oh yeah, we know, mass migration is bad. Yeah, yeah. And trying to, like, epically fail when asked how many genders there are. They can’t define what a woman is. But we have to remember that it’s not just the Left, but it’s the insidious institutions that they abuse. The fact that this is a term that I’m pushing for because it’s a fact. It’s gun deserts. The Left realize now that they can’t win in the public square of debate. Because with gun control, we can easily, we can easily defend and fight against it. And we can push back on every one of their points, because every one of their points are nonsensical. They’ve lost the media where we have alternative tech. There’s Rumble, and you have all the voices. X has become slightly more free. And because a lot of the big tech companies want to use AI, they’re allowing, okay, yeah, we’ll let the conservatives have their points and speak. Teddy Nappen  14:57 So, this is the one bid. It’s the financial institutions. If you all remember the heavy issue of de-banking. I caught this article, and I was like, oh yeah, I remember that issue. (https://www.nraila.org/articles/20260209/jp-morgan-in-growing-trend-backtracks-on-anti-gun-policies) I love how JP Morgan says they’re going to roll back the de-banking that they were committing against gun shops and firearm companies. So, to give a little history lesson, this comes right from the NRA-ILA’s article of JP Morgan’s backtracking. I mean, this goes back to Obama Biden, like the 2010s, where firearm-related businesses were having trouble with Bank of America. Even though they said they didn’t have any corporate policy, we know they’re lying, of course. And then the allegations were getting worse, and Bank of America said, no, no, we don’t have any policy. Then finally, in 2014 they admitted under Operation Choke Point where they threatened to throttle any institution that exercises Second Amendment rights by pressuring banks to drop business, to drop businesses in the firearm industry. So, thankfully, President. Trump got in and stopped that operation. But it proved the point. We were right. The banks were weaponized against the firearm industry. They were trying to go after any form of gun shops or any firearm industries. You know, they can’t get a loan. Then my favorite one was when they were trying to do the credit card scheme. They were trying to track firearm purchases on credit cards. Teddy Nappen  16:34 Also, I love this one where they would pressure firearm industry groups to not sell certain semi-automatic firearms, and also cutting back on standard capacity mags. They like to say high capacity, but it’s just standard capacity. Prohibiting the sale of magazines. Then, of course, the Left would tote saying, look at the firearm industry. They support our anti-gun movement. Well, you’re trying to de-bank me and lose my business. So, I have to agree with you. You know, if you point a gun at someone and demand them to say things, they’ll say things. It’s so disingenuous. At the point where there was a 2019 hearing where the institutions were hauled in. Coming to answer questions that they delved in when it came to banks working with firearm industry and forcing them to push the anti-gun policies. It’s the level of disgusting nature that comes into play. We need to remember that. We need to remember these institutions. Because when the pendulum swings, which it will, at some point, they will get back to business as usual. Attacking our rights. And even President Trump, right back in office, 2024. He comes back in and says to Davos. He gives a huge speech and points to the CEO. JP Morgan and everybody else, I hope you start opening your banks to conservatives. What you’re doing is wrong. Pointing it right out. Not saying, oh, the firearm industry. No, conservatives. Because that’s what it is. It’s conservatives that they are de-banking. It’s conservatives they are attacking and weaponizing. Teddy Nappen  18:21 And even going back to the, I think it was the National Shooting Sports Foundation that even addressed this exact issue. In 2021, they testified in a Congress hearing stating that JP Morgan’s Chase would not lend to manufacturers of modern sporting rifles. There’s your proof, right there. So, remember this. Do not trust the big tech companies. Do not trust the banks. Because right now, the culture has shifted, but they are fully willing to get back. If you look at the donors to Kamala Harris, they all donated to Kamala. They all donated. They all heavily donate to Democrats. Only now, because we’re in power, they’re like, oh yeah, we’re for you guys. Yeah, okay. Enjoy chasing that AI trend while you guys won’t de platform us. But we need to remember that. So, we need to embrace and look to other means, because this is the games they play. We need to find ways around that. Teddy Nappen  19:25 It’s time to finish off with the GOFU, everyone’s favorite. We need to. Also, this is a kind of a lesson in observational awareness. Jeff Cooper preached that idea of observational awareness. He even made a little game of X’s and O’s. Where, if you go into any room or place, you make sure you see everyone and make an O. And as you’re walking through, if you miss somebody who saw you first, give that one an X. Play that game in your head as a scoring method. Yeah, because observational awareness is key. I’m going to highlight that with an actual article from USACarry.com. (https://www.usacarry.com/man-fatally-shoots-attacker-while-playing-pokemon-go-in-anderson-indiana/) A man was attacked while playing Pokémon Go in the woods. He was walking through the woods and was playing Pokémon Go. A 51-year old businessman was playing Pokémon Go, a scavenger hunt, on his phone, and he was ambushed by a homeless man who punched him in the back of the head and stole his phone. At which time, he, you know, drew his firearm and fatally shot the man. It was ruled fully justified, because, first of all, you’re getting punched in the back of the head. People have died from that. And look, there may be more to the story of why it was justified, but the police and the prosecutor found that it presented and seemed like a strong case of self-defense. The fact that he was ranting and raving. But this is the point. This is a clear demonstration. He could have avoided that whole encounter, and it could have gone very bad very quickly. Because all it took is one Left wing prosecutor to say he shot an unarmed man, and his life would have been ruined. Observational awareness, situational awareness. Keep your head on a swivel. That is the GOFU. Don’t be a GOFU. Teddy Nappen  21:19 This is Teddy Nappen reminding you that gun laws do not protect honest citizens from criminals. They protect criminals from honest citizens.

What if success isn't about pushing harder but allowing yourself to be pulled toward your purpose? In this episode, Seth Streeter shares how he helps people navigate major life transitions and discover their inspired life purpose as co-founder of Mission Wealth, a wealth management firm he started 25 years ago that now manages $14 billion in assets for 4,600 families across 34 US locations. Seth has been a financial advisor for 34 years, specializing in guiding clients through major life events while helping them live more fulfilling lives through assessments across 12 dimensions of wealth. After going through divorce and the financial crisis, Seth realized he was achieving traditional success but wasn't fulfilled, leading him to spend an introspective year attending retreats, meditating, and traveling to India. In the last eight years, Seth has led purpose-driven retreats for over 2,000 people, including nine-day retreats in Bhutan where leaders trek in the Himalayas and stay with monks. Seth spoke at Davos with Deepak Chopra on conscious leadership and leads the purpose community for YPO. Seth reveals the relationship that transformed his life: Joe Bosco, owner of an Italian restaurant in Fort Collins, Colorado where Seth worked as a dishwasher through high school. When Seth was looking at colleges and his parents wanted him to attend Colorado State, Joe Bosco said "you should check out Santa Barbara, California" because he went there for horse shows. Seth had never heard of Santa Barbara but applied to UCSB because of Joe Bosco and spent 27 years there, founding Mission Wealth, having his children, serving on 10 nonprofit boards, starting sustainable future.org, and doing a TED Talk, all because Joe Bosco suggested he check out UC Santa Barbara. Seth also credits Chip Conley, founder of MEA, as a mentor who showed him how to move from his head to his heart.   [00:03:40] Led Two Nine-Day Purpose Retreats in Bhutan In Asia for most of the trip Had 25 leaders in each group trekking in Himalayas Stayed overnight at monasteries, lived with monks Contemplated purpose individually, within companies, within world at large [00:04:40] Mission Wealth: 25 Years and $14 Billion Co-founded Mission Wealth 25 years ago Independent registered investment advisory firm 34 locations across US, manages just under $14 billion in assets About 4,600 families, team of 200 advisors and professionals [00:05:20] Started Leading Retreats Eight Years Ago In last eight years started leading retreats and coaching For different companies, leaders, different groups of people Takes paid time off to do it, spends vacations leading retreats About 2,000 people have gone through in-person programs [00:06:00] The 13 Inches From Head to Heart Great quote: "furthest distance many travel in lifetime are 13 inches from head to heart" As financial guy, had heart in what he did, loved helping people solve problems This work feels more intimate, more meaningful Really helping people give themselves permission to be best version of who they want to be [00:08:00] Started in Financial Services Right Out of College Right out of college, needed a job Was in student government at UC Santa Barbara, thought he'd be entrepreneur Dad was in government, mom was teacher, brother was police officer Family said "you need a job with benefits, security, and paycheck" [00:09:00] Went Through His Own Tough Journey Went through divorce, financial crisis, bumps in life Realized success script needed to be rewritten Was working hard but wasn't fulfilled, wasn't content Achieving success in traditional way materially but didn't feel fulfilled [00:09:20] The Introspective Year That Changed Everything Decided to do whole introspective year Went to retreats, read self-help books, listened to podcasts Got into meditation, went to India, did all these "woo" things That year opened up whole new framework for living [00:10:20] Push Energy vs Pull Energy As entrepreneur, had lot of push energy: building vision, growing team, charging hill Used that in Ironman, marathons, running nonprofits After personal reflection, started to adopt pull energy approach More of allowance, trusting doors close and open for reason [00:11:20] Speaking at Davos With Deepak Chopra Was asked to speak at panel in Malibu with five people Woman from Finland asked if he'd been to Davos, offered to get him in Three months before event, confirmed: Thursday with Deepak Chopra on Conscious Leadership in Era of AI Couldn't have pushed way into that opportunity, was being open and available [00:14:40] 12 Dimensions of Wealth Talk about wealth not just in financial sense but across 12 dimensions Impact families are having, quality of relationships, physical health, intellectual growth Seeing families grow true wealth feels very rewarding Lead purpose community for all of YPO [00:15:00] The Success Script and Grind Mentality Lot of people followed success script, did what they were taught Worked hard in school, career, moved through ranks or started company Rinsed and repeated grind mentality to get ahead Now 40, 50, or 60 saying "is this all there is?"

Elon Musk promet une “ère d'abondance” où tout deviendra presque gratuit, au point de rendre le travail optionnel. Derrière ce paradis technologique, quatre piliers très cohérents… et de grandes questions existentielles. Chaque fois qu'il en a l'occasion, Elon Musk martèle l'idée d'un futur où la rareté disparaîtrait presque totalement, les biens, services et énergie deviendraient extrêmement bon marché, la pauvreté reculerait, et le niveau de vie moyen grimperait en flèche. Bref, une ère de formidable abondance.Sur quoi repose cette théorie ? Sur quatre principaux moteurs.Les quatre piliers de l'abondance selon MuskElon Musk mise d'abord sur la baisse radicale du coût du travail grâce à des robots humanoïdes par milliards, qui produiront sans relâche et pourront même fabriquer d'autres robots. Ensuite, sur une super-IA chargée d'optimiser l'ensemble de la chaîne de valeur (logistique, production, planification), avec une productivité annoncée comme démultipliée. Troisième levier : une énergie abondante et peu coûteuse, avec le solaire comme socle. Enfin, l'automatisation de masse (robots + IA + énergie bon marché), qui ouvrirait la voie à des économies d'échelle inédites.MacroHard, agents IA et entreprises “autonomes”Dans ce récit, tout converge vers l'écosystème Musk : les robots avec Tesla (et son projet Optimus), l'IA avec xAI (et Grok), et l'infrastructure/énergie avec SpaceX.Musk prévoit aussi des entreprises pilotées par des agents IA, capables de prendre des décisions, d'exécuter des tâches et, au besoin, de commander des robots dans le monde physique (projet “MacroHard”).2026, année de la singularitéSelon Musk, cette prédiction devrait se réaliser très vite, dans à peine cinq à dix ans. Nous serions même déjà entré, en 2026, dans une forme de “singularité” où les machines dépassent les humains, ce qui va déclencher une accélération technologique exponentielle. Cette accélération, toujours selon Musk, nécessiterait d'aligner les IA pour qu'elles ne se rebellent pas contre nous, pauvres humains. Pour cela, il faudrait leur “inculquer les bonnes valeurs”. C'est ce qu'il tente de faire avec Grok (

Episode 313 of UnSpun with Jody Vance and George Affleck drops on a news-heavy day — from Olympic heartbreak to Prince Andrew's arrest to Conservatives jumping ship to the Liberals.Here's what's inside:

This week on Your Undivided Attention, Tristan Harris and Daniel Barcay offer a backstage recap of what it was like to be at the Davos World Economic Forum meeting this year as the world's power brokers woke up to the risks of uncontrolled AI. Amidst all the money and politics, the Human Change House staged a weeklong series of remarkable conversations between scientists and experts about technology and society. This episode is a discussion between Tristan and Professor Yoshua Bengio, who is considered one of the world's leaders in AI and deep learning, and the most cited scientist in the field. Yoshua and Tristan had a frank exchange about the AI we're building, and the incentives we're using to train models. What happens when a model has its own goals, and those goals are ‘misaligned' with the human-centered outcomes we need? In fact this is already happening, and the consequences are tragic. Truthfully, there may not be a way to ‘nudge' or regulate companies toward better incentives. Yoshua has launched a nonprofit AI safety research initiative called Law Zero that isn't just about safety testing, but really a new form of advanced AI that's fundamentally safe by design.RECOMMENDED MEDIA All the panels that Tristan and Daniel did with Human Change House LawZero: Safe AI for Humanity Anthropic's internal research on ‘agentic misalignment' RECOMMENDED YUA EPISODES Attachment Hacking and the Rise of AI PsychosisHow OpenAI's ChatGPT Guided a Teen to His DeathWhat if we had fixed social media?What Can We Do About Abusive Chatbots? With Meetali Jain and Camille CarltonCORRECTIONS AND CLARIFICATIONS 1) In this episode, Tristan Harris discussed AI chatbot safety concerns. The core issues are substantiated by investigative reporting, with these clarifications:Grok: The Washington Post reported in August 2024 that Grok generated sexualized images involving minors and had weaker content moderation than competitors. Meta: The Wall Street Journal reported in December 2024 that Meta reduced safety restrictions on its AI chatbots. Testing showed inappropriate responses when researchers posed as 13-year-olds (Meta's minimum age). Our discussion referenced "eight year olds" to emphasize concerns about young children accessing these systems; the documented testing involved 13-year-old personas.Bottom line: The fundamental concern stands—major AI companies have reduced safety guardrails due to competitive pressure, creating documented risks for young users.2) There was no Google House at Davos in 2026, as stated by Tristan. It was a collaboration at Goals House. 3) Tristan states that in 2025, the total funding going into AI safety organizations was “on the order of about $150 million.” This number is not strictly verifiable.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Today we are unlocking our episode on the update on the situation in Minneapolis. Note that most of the episode was recorded before Alex Pretti was martyred by CBP thugs, but Ryan provides a brief update on that at the start. This might just be seen as the turn of the tide. Then we move on to discuss Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's remarkable speech and Davos, what it revealed about the previous "rules-based international order," and just how deliriously insane Trump's aggression against Canada and Greenland is. Check out some excellent coverage of the Minneapolis resistance here and here.

AI-generated content and deepfakes are rewriting the rules of creative ownership. So what are writers, artists, and performers doing about it? In this panel discussion from the AI House at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, SAG-AFTRA National Executive Director and Chief Negotiator Duncan Crabtree-Ireland joined multidisciplinary artist Emi Kusano and MIT Technology Review Editor-in-Chief Mat Honan for a discussion about how performers secured contract protections for digital replicas, how artists are using AI ethically in their own creative practice, and how journalists are setting boundaries around AI-generated content in newsrooms. The panel was moderated by Nicholas Thompson, CEO of The Atlantic. *The views expressed by guests are their own and do not necessarily reflect the views of their organization or SAG-AFTRA.

Según informa la CBS, el presidente de EEUU, Donald Trump, evalúa posibles ataques contra Irán en los próximos días. La Junta de Paz se reúne hoy por primera vez en Washington desde su fundación en Davos. Se anunciará un compromiso de más de 5.000 millones de dólares para la reconstrucción de Gaza. Las aerolíneas presentan hoy su propuesta de tarifas a Aena en el periodo 2027-2031.

The global order is shifting in plain sight. In this Global Macro conversation, Steen Jakobsen, inventor of the Outrages Predictions, joins Niels Kaastrup-Larsen and Alan Dunne to examine the slow grind reshaping productivity, debt, currencies, and political stability. From dollar regime risk to state capitalism, from market concentration to commodity repricing, the discussion moves beyond headlines to structural fault lines. Is gold signaling debasement? Can the U.S. sustain its debt path? Does AI lift productivity or hollow it out? Rather than predict collapse, Jakobsen outlines a drawn-out transition where capital reallocates, volatility hides beneath the surface, and political systems are tested long before markets finally react.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn and YouTube.Follow Alan on LinkedIn.Follow Steen on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps: 01:38 - Introducing Steen Jakobsen03:45 - From trading floors to outrageous predictions06:32 - Dollar hedging and regime shift signals08:06 - Davos as a macro...

Did Marco Rubio present a gentler view of transatlantic relations than JD Vance did a year ago, or the same vision, in more diplomatic language? Louise, Peter and Jeremy also unpack another busy couple of weeks for Mark Carney who is countering Davos critics with plans for an alliance to preserve rules-based open markets.

In my recent article, I spoke to you about Mark Carney's wonderful talk at Davos and explained the structure he used to deliver it. Now let me tell you about how Volodymyr Zelenskyy's talk used the same format in his emotional appeal to Europe and the World for help for his people. His opening lines followed a classic format used by all good speakers. He speaks about something familiar to the audience that would immediately get their attention. Then he proceeded to talk about something that would gain their interest. See how he did this below: Attention: "Dear friends, everyone remembers the great American film, "Groundhog Day" with Bill Murray and Andie McDowell, yes, but no one would want to live like that, repeating the same thing for weeks, months, and, of course, for years." Interest: "And yet, that's exactly how we live now. It's our life and every Forum like this one proves it. Just last year, here in Davos, I ended my speech with the words, Europe needs to know how to defend itself. A year has passed and nothing has changed. We are still in a situation where I must say the same words, but why?" Main Body of the talk: This would be what I call the conviction part of the talk. He then provided examples of where countries could take action. A year has passed and nothing has happened Things move faster than Europe's decision making Europe must build a better world Without action there is no tomorrow Zelenskyy provides lots of examples of how support could be provided to Ukraine, and I will leave it to you to listen to his speech after reading this article. In my view, he provided too many suggestions, which often leads people to think this is insurmountable and so end up doing nothing. There is an old Irish proverb which says 'Do not send a man into a shed full of shovels and ask him to take his pick.' Suggesting a desired outcome is a critical part of all speeches that call for Action Desirable Outcome: "Ukraine is ready to help with anything that is needed to guarantee peace and prevent destruction. We are ready to help others become stronger than they are now. We are ready to be part of a Europe that truly matters, a Europe of real power, Today, we need that power to protect our own independence, but you need Ukraine's independence too, because tomorrow, you may have to defend your way of life, and when Ukraine is with you, no one will wipe their feet on you and you will always have a way to act and act in time." Call for Action: Here, Zelenskyy is pleading with powerful people to take action, and he ends his speech by bringing us back to where he started, appealing to leaders to act. "This is very important, act in time. Dear friends, today is one of the last days of Davos, though definitely not the last Davos, of course, and everyone agrees on that and many people believe that somehow things will work out on their own, but we cannot rely on 'somehow' for real security." "Faith is not enough. Faith in a partner in a lucky turn of events, no intellectual discussions are capable of stopping wars, we need action, world order comes from action and we just need the courage to act. Without action now, there is no tomorrow. Let's end this Groundhog Day, and yes, it's possible."

Patrick welcomes listeners into a whirlwind conversation about artificial intelligence, sparking reactions to Elon Musk’s bold predictions and candidly questioning the consequences for human purpose, work, and relationships. Unexpected calls reference pop culture, raise concerns about machines rewriting history, and wonder aloud what happens if robots take over everyday chores. As the dialogue accelerates, Patrick probes whether people will embrace robots or fiercely protect the messy beauty of real life.

In this episode, Dr. Eric Cioe-Peña, Vice President of Global Health at Northwell Health, discusses building a systemwide approach to global health, balancing clinical practice with executive leadership, and advancing health system strengthening worldwide. He also shares insights from the World Economic Forum in Davos, lifelong learning, and navigating imposter syndrome as a physician leader.

More than half of Americans say job insecurity is crushing them with stress. So how do some people look like they've always had it figured out? Spoiler: they haven't.  Host Elizabeth Weingarten traveled to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland to pull aside C-Suite leaders, entrepreneurs, and founders from companies like BetterUp, Zoom, Bain & Company, and more to talk about the moments when work inexplicably shifts—the layoffs, the pivots, the feeling of being completely stuck.  From Dr. Becky Kennedy discovering that admitting "I don't know" was actually the path to knowing herself, to Ray Wang's father asking him "what are you worth?" before he started his own company, to Josh Kallmer's "happiness matrix" that pulled him out of his darkest professional period, these leaders show that navigating uncertainty is what makes great leaders.

On this special episode, join Pete as he catches up with Nicole Sahin, Founder and CEO of G-P, who shares an insider's POV on the World Economic Forum's annual meeting in Davos, Switzerland.  Together, they unpack what Davos is and what attending entails, and the value in the density of global CEOs, heads of state, founders, and policymakers converging annually on the small alpine village.  Nicole shares what that proximity reveals about the direction of business, talent, and technology, and how geopolitical tension and macroeconomic uncertainty are shaping executive conversations. They discuss why business leaders worldwide are seeking stability, cooperation, and frictionless cross-border operations. They explore the evolving reality of global hiring and talent mobility, and how countries like India and the UAE are accelerating digitization to attract innovation and entrepreneurship, and what that means for governance, compliance, and cross-border employment in the years ahead.  Plus, Nicole shares her lens on AI's evolution from disruption narrative to enterprise reality, and why enterprise organizations are moving decisively to embed AI into HR, legal, and compliance functions.

Technologist Dan Simerman tells Stan Stalnaker about digital chemicals and bad algorithms, and how they are influencing new evolutionary risks for humanity.

In this episode, Chris, David, and Mark consider the state of the world and the sustainability agenda at the beginning of 2026. They discuss what recent global polling shows about societal polarization, the risks of hyper-global and local inequalities, and the risks related to loss of trust in democratic institutions. Recorded just after the 2026 World Economic Forum in Davos, the conversation foreshadows many of the major themes the podcast will touch on this year.

The Munich Security Conference aka "Davos with guns" concluded this weekend. The usual suspects were there including Sandy Cortez, who went on to say, "Whiteness is imaginary!"

La Conferencia de Seguridad de Múnich de este año, que concluyó este mismo domingo, ha servido como escenario para tratar de reparar la relación transatlántica, que desde que Donald Trump regresó al poder no atraviesa su mejor momento. Un año después de que el vicepresidente JD Vance sacudiera los cimientos de la alianza con un discurso incendiario, el secretario de Estado, Marco Rubio, acudió al mismo estrado con un tono marcadamente conciliador. Mientras que Vance en 2024 cuestionó la comunión de intereses entre EEUU y Europa, Rubio ha preferido templar gaitas y apelar a la historia, el cristianismo y la cultura compartida. De hecho definió a Estados Unidos como "hijo de Europa”. Este cambio de formas no oculta una continuidad en el fondo. Rubio mantiene las exigencias del Gobierno Trump hacia el viejo continente. Criticó el "culto climático" que empobrece a Europa, señaló la crisis migratoria y calificó el orden mundial basado en normas como una "ilusión". La diferencia radicó en la presentación; lo que el año pasado fue una dura reprimenda, este año ha sido más un sermón con palabras bien escogidas para decir lo mismo pero sin ofender al auditorio. El tono y la forma cambian, pero no el fondo, y ahí tenemos el último discurso de Trump en Europa con motivo del Foro de Davos cuando reclamó la anexión de Groenlandia, incluso por la fuerza, algo que ensanchó aún más la brecha entre Estados Unidos y sus socios. La respuesta europea ante esta ambivalencia estadounidense ha evolucionado de la conmoción a la acción. Primeros ministros como Keir Starmer y Mark Carney reclaman ahora una "autonomía estratégica" que no busca la ruptura, sino un mejor reparto de las cargas de defensa. Europa parece haber aceptado que el entorno geopolítico sin amenazas que ha caracterizado las tres últimas décadas ha terminado y que deben "europeizar" la OTAN asumiendo mayores responsabilidades financieras y operativas. Aunque EEUU ha dado señales tranquilizadoras, como el compromiso de mantener la protección nuclear y la cesión de centros de mando, la desconfianza persiste. Varios frentes mantienen la herida abierta. En el plano militar, la incertidumbre sobre la resolución de la guerra en Ucrania y la presión de Trump sobre Zelenski contrastan con la cautela de Rubio. En el ámbito soberano, el interés estadounidense por Groenlandia sigue siendo un punto de fricción con Dinamarca. No obstante, es en el terreno digital donde surge el conflicto más insalvable. Las leyes europeas sobre mercados y servicios digitales se perciben en Washington como un ataque a sus gigantes tecnológicos y a la libertad de expresión. En resumen, la misión de Rubio y de otros altos cargos del Pentágono como Elbridge Colby en Múnich ha sido la de transmitir que el "golpe de realidad" recibido por los europeos fortalecerá la alianza en lugar de debilitarla. Quizá no sea suficiente ya que el escepticismo impera en las capitales europeas. Se entiende que demasiadas cosas han cambiado en demasiado poco tiempo. Han pasado de una beneficiosa cercanía a una dependencia peligrosa. Aunque se celebren los gestos de reconciliación, los líderes europeos se preparan para lo peor, conscientes de que la fiabilidad de su principal aliado está íntimamente ligada a la volatilidad de su política interna.

Aplauze după discursul secretarului de stat Marco Rubio la Conferința de securitate de la München. Dar a contribuit aceasta la o reparare a relației transatlantice, grav avariate de Donald Trump? Nu tocmai, sunt de părere comentatorii. Rubio și liderii europeni sunt de acord asupra unui lucru: vechea ordine mondială „nu mai există”, transmite CNN: ”Forumul a avut loc la doar câteva săptămâni după o altă întâlnire tensionată a liderilor mondiali de la Davos, Elveția, în care Trump a ținut un discurs critic față de liderii europeni pentru politica lor de migrație și s-a plâns că SUA au fost exploatate de aliații europeni”. The New York Times observă că, „spre deosebire de vicepreședintele american J.D. Vance, care anul trecut i-a acuzat pe europeni că cenzurează partidele de extremă dreapta în detrimentul libertății de exprimare, domnul Rubio a acționat diplomatic, subliniind secolele de istorie comună dintre țara sa și Europa, de la colonizarea Americii până la lupta împotriva comunismului în timpul Războiului Rece.” Citeste siRaportul Conferinței de la München din acest an are o notă îndrăzneață, pentru că portretizează SUA în rolul de demolator al ordinii internaționale (Analist) ”După distrugere, repararea. Între cei doi candidați la funcția de succesor al lui Donald Trump, Vance și Rubio, votul european a fost exprimat”, consideră Le Figaro. ”Rămân însă întrebări. Prima îi privește pe americani: În ce măsură poate fi adoptată de Casa Albă și aprobată de un președinte american care susține că „Europa s-a terminat” retorica liniștitoare a lui Marco Rubio, care contrastează puternic cu unilateralismul brutal al lui Donald Trump? A doua îi privește pe europeni. Este viziunea asupra lumii a lui Marco Rubio, care prezintă un continent subordonat de bunăvoie Statelor Unite, compatibilă cu cea a Europei de astăzi?  Vor reuși europenii să țină pasul cu Statele Unite în materie de apărare? Dar mai presus de toate, vor dori aceeași politică de imigrație? Răspunsul va veni la München, în 2027. Și în capitalele europene care vor organiza în curând alegeri”. Revista germană Der Spiegel nu se arată prea convinsă de prestația lui Marco Rubio, pe care îl descrie drept ”omul pus să care molozul”. ”Pare abordabil, dar asta nu schimbă nimic: Marco Rubio a reprezintat politica externă a lui Donald Trump la Conferința de Securitate de la München”. „Este însă dificil de stabilit dacă aplauzele au reflectat o aprobare autentică sau doar o ușurare față de un discurs care a fost mai puțin agresiv decât se aștepta”, notează cotidianul spaniol El Mundo. ”Discursul lui Marco Rubio a avut un ton conciliant, dar a fost în esență trumpian”, este de părere Süddeutsche Zeitung. Cuvintele frumoase nu au reușit să ascundă realitatea. „Iar realitatea este aceasta: Europa și America lui Donald Trump trăiesc în două lumi extrem de diferite când vine vorba de politică. (...) Acest lucru este valabil mai ales având în vedere că președintele american amenință în mod regulat că va ocupa un teritoriu danez autonom: Groenlanda”.

Only 3000 people are invited to Davos, home of the World Economic Forum - and you're one of them! Well, not really. But welcome anyway to this chocolate-box Swiss mountain town, transformed via "the Champions League of logistics" into a de facto military base for the world's economic, political and corporate superpowers. Guiding us through this deeply cursed world is very special guest Caitlín Doherty, smuggling us in to encounter some profoundly cursed Davos freebies. Saudi Arabia-sponsored hand warmers? Meta-branded hot chocolate? Pinterest ramen? Ice cream with crickets in? These seemingly disparate objects are a window into the centres of elite power, ‘Great Reset' conspiracies, the Epstein files, crypto and AI bubbles, and the mysterious technocrat that is Davos Man. How has Davos - the town, and the economic forum - changed, in a world where globalisation is allegedly in retreat? What has changed under the second Trump administration? When was peak Davos, and has it passed? Are Chinese capitalists inside or outside the tent? And what happens when the capitalist class run out of ideas about where to put their money?   Read some of Cait's amazing pieces: The Davos essay for Harpers On David Lynch, for the New Statesman In Dubai, for New Left Review And keep an eye out for her forthcoming book on Davos!

What happens when the noise around AI starts to drown out the actual business value it is meant to deliver? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sat down with Adam Field, Chief AI and Product Officer at Tungsten Automation, fresh from the conversations unfolding at Davos. While headlines continue to celebrate agentic AI and sweeping automation claims, Adam offered a grounded perspective shaped by decades of experience turning AI pilots into measurable, ROI-driven deployments. His view is simple. The hype cycle may be accelerating, but many organizations still struggle with the fundamentals. Adam described a common boardroom dynamic. "What do we want? AI. What do we want it to do? We're not sure." That pressure to move fast often collides with a deeper reality. Software has shifted from deterministic to probabilistic. Leaders who grew up expecting the same inputs to always produce the same outputs now face systems that behave differently by design. Measuring value in that environment requires a different mindset. One of the most compelling ideas in our conversation was Adam's concept of "boring AI." While splashy announcements about replacing hundreds of employees grab attention, he argues that real returns often come from quieter use cases. At Tungsten Automation, that means intelligent document processing, extracting trusted, AI-ready data from the 80 percent of enterprise information that is unstructured. Contracts, invoices, transcripts, compliance paperwork. The work may not trend on social media, but it saves time, improves accuracy, and fits directly into daily workflows. We also explored accountability. AI can compress output, but it concentrates responsibility. When generative tools make architectural or compliance decisions, the liability does not shift to the model. Organizations remain accountable for privacy, ethics, and customer trust. Adam shared his own experience rebuilding a legacy application in days using AI code generation, only to discover licensing and compliance nuances that required human judgment. The lesson was clear. AI amplifies capability, yet human oversight remains essential. For leaders searching for signals that an AI strategy will actually deliver long-term returns, Adam pointed to two patterns from the small percentage of projects that succeed. First, integration into daily workflows drives adoption. Second, partnering with trusted vendors often reduces risk compared to attempting everything in-house. In a world flooded with open-source experiments and "X is dead" headlines, discipline and focus still matter. Tungsten Automation has spent four decades evolving alongside automation technologies, previously known as Kofax. Today, the company applies large language models and agentic workflows to transform unstructured data into decision-ready insights across finance, logistics, banking, and insurance. It is a reminder that the future of AI may be less about replacing people and more about removing friction so humans can do the work they were actually hired to do. So as AI investment continues to grow and pressure for returns intensifies, the question becomes harder to ignore. Are we chasing the headlines, or are we building systems that quietly deliver value where it counts? Useful Links Connect with Adam Field Learn more about Tungsten Automation Upcoming Events

Canada's Prime Minister Mark Carney gave a rousing speech at the World Economic Forum on January 20, 2026 about the rupture of the rules-based order of the globalized economy, and he emphasized the need to build new coalitions to sustain the pressure coming from the United States' emerging authoritarianism. Carney said, “Great powers have begun using economic integration as weapons, tariffs as leverage, financial infrastructure as coercion, supply chains as vulnerabilities to be exploited. You cannot live within the lie of mutual benefit through integration, when integration becomes the source of your subordination.” Just as globalized, economic integrations are being weaponized by the United States, then Big Tech's integrations woven throughout our lives will continue to become the source of our own subordination, especially as surveillance capitalism heads towards it's logical conclusion of an all-pervasive, AI Big Brother, perhaps eventually explicitly tied into authoritarian governments. The AI Big Brother has already started within the context of private companies, but with the outdated Third-Party doctrine of the Fourth Amendment, then any data given to a third party has "no legitimate 'expectation of privacy'." From UNITED STATES v. MILLER (1976): "The Fourth Amendment does not prohibit the obtaining of information revealed to a third party and conveyed by him to Government authorities." So the US government can request almost any data shared with a third party without a warrant, and given Big Tech's cozy relationship to a democratically-backsliding US government, then who knows what kinds of backroom deals are being made to automate data sharing. We're already in an era where almost all data given to a third party is not considered to be private, and you can start to see some early indications for how this can go wrong in Taylor Lorenz's interview with 404 Media's Joe Cox about ICE's surveillance technologies. It seems likely that we are entering into the very early phases of Orwell's worst nightmare of a 1984 surveillance state powered by Big Tech's AI. In this op-ed podcast episode, I connect some dots between Carney's Davos speech about the hegemonic forces in the geopolitical sphere and the parallels with Big Tech's push towards "contextually aware-AI," which is just an always-on AI that is surveillance capitalism on steroids. Carney's speech provides a lot of insights for how Canada is navigating this new reality where the rules-based order on the International stage seems to be dissolving. One of his deepest insights is to simply name the truth, and to describe precisely what is happening. He refers to a powerful story from Vaclav Havel's The Power of the Powerless where shopkeepers eventually "took their [propaganda] signs down" during communist rule after they were no longer willing to live within a lie. Carney says: "The system's power comes not from its truth, but from everyone's willingness to perform as if it were true, and its fragility comes from the same source. When even one person stops performing, when the greengrocer removes his sign, the illusion begins to crack. Friends, it is time for companies and countries to take their signs down." Taking down metaphoric signs breaks the spell of the collective performative ritual that sustains the power of an authoritarian regime. Taking a sign down is also the embodiment of the first lesson of Timothy Synder's On Tyranny, which is "Do Not Obey in Advance." This lesson is certainly easier said than done, and I've been surprised how pervasive and powerful the chilling effects to remain silent can be. I find myself self-censoring, going dark on social media, and just generally not speaking the full truth as I see it. So this episode is a step in that direction of trying to name things as I see them, but also drawing the parallels between these broader political contexts and how they're collapsing into the technological contexts.

Is AI becoming the ultimate gatekeeper of truth? On this episode of Too Opinionated, Kris Millegan — publisher of TrineDay Books — joins us to discuss the growing battle over censorship, digital control, and the future of printed books in an AI-driven world. After facing harassment and legal pressure surrounding an unreleased book connected to the Jeffrey Epstein story, Millegan raises urgent questions about how modern censorship works — not through public bans, but through intimidation, litigation, and digital suppression. At Davos, global leaders openly discussed replacing printed books with AI-mediated knowledge systems. The argument? Efficiency. The concern? Control. When all information becomes digital, it can be edited, rewritten, or erased. Printed books don't update. They don't comply. They remain. We also examine: AI as the future authority over law, religion, and culture Whether digital systems can quietly reshape history The risks of centralized information control Why physical books may be the last decentralized defense This isn't anti-technology. It's a conversation about power, memory, and who decides what remains true. Order Kris Millegan's book: Fleshing Out Skull & Bones Subscribe to the channel:

En el episodio 299 del Podcast del Club del Inversor volvemos con un clásico: preguntas y respuestas reales de la comunidad. Hablamos de dividendos vs aumento de valor en acciones y el eterno dilema entre flujo y crecimiento. Analizamos qué se dijo en el Foro de Davos 2026 y cómo la incertidumbre global, la confrontación geoeconómica y la selectividad impactan nuestras decisiones de inversión. También abordamos un tema clave del ecosistema: el incumplimiento de la emisión de Saint Germain en Crowder, qué ocurrió, cómo se llegó a esa situación y qué implica para la credibilidad del sistema. Sumamos el debate generado por Elon Musk sobre la posibilidad de que en el futuro no sea necesario ahorrar para la jubilación debido al avance de la inteligencia artificial, y bajamos esa visión a tierra desde una perspectiva financiera realista. Además, respondemos dudas prácticas sobre alquileres pactados en dólares y cómo funcionan los ajustes, y cerramos con una pregunta muy importante: ¿qué tan seguros son los ETF como herramienta de inversión y qué riesgos hay que considerar tanto del vehículo como del broker?

Artificial general intelligence (AGI) is that point in the future when the machines can do pretty much everything better than humans. When will it happen, what will it look like, and what will be the impact on humanity? Two of the brightest minds working in AI today, Demis Hassabis, Co-Founder and CEO of Google DeepMind, and Dario Amodei, Co-Founder and CEO of Anthropic, speak to Zanny Minton Beddoes, Editor-in-Chief of The Economist. Benjamin Larsen, an expert in AI at the World Economic Forum, introduces the conversation and gives us a primer on AGI.

BUY GOLD HERE: https://firstnationalbullion.com/schedule-consult/ Avoid CBDCs and work with Mark Gonzales! HELP SUPPORT US AS WE DOCUMENT HISTORY HERE: https://gogetfunding.com/help-keep-wam-alive/# Josh Sigurdson reports on the claim by Secretary of State Marco Rubio that the dollar is finished and will collapse following a Fox News interview where he claimed in 5 years "we won't have the ability to sanction." This comes as more and more countries are using foreign currencies to trade exposing the lack of faith in the US dollar. This is an admittance that the world reserve currency is no longer holding onto this status as it has been especially since Saudi Arabia made the Petrodollar deal with the United States. As BRICS+ grows in size dramatically and welcomes in new countries, President Trump himself has recently claimed that the dollar is dying, though he claimed a weak dollar is "good for the American economy." This is simply untrue. It's perhaps good for foreign trade on a temporary basis but no where near good for the people of the United States as the scripted monetary power shift pushes forward. The Chinese system has been propped up by the US government itself for decades, from trade deals under Kissinger to the Trilateral Commission using the country as a guinea pig state for technocracy. When one system falls, the next is ready to take over as a so-called "solution." Then we shall have a truly global cashless society with CBDCs and digital IDs. The Chinese Yuan has hit its highest level against the US dollar since May of 2023. China is instructing banks to reduce US Treasury holdings. China's gold reserves has surpassed 74 million ounces with over $367 billion. Russia's gold reserves have reached $400 billion. As Xi Jinping calls for the Yuan to become the global reserve currency, we are seeing the exact shift mentioned at Davos by people like Ursula Von der Leyen who claimed we are seeing a reset similar to Nixon taking the dollar off the gold standard and that this will create a world order.
