KI richtig führen: Von Prompt-Vorlage zu Teamwork In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Kathrin Lückenga darüber, warum die Suche nach dem perfekten Prompt dich in die Irre führt – und wie du stattdessen eine echte Arbeitsbeziehung zu deiner KI aufbaust. Du erfährst, warum Führung wichtiger ist als Vorlagen, wie du deiner KI deinen Stil beibringst und was ein Perspektivwechsel mit deinen Ergebnissen macht. Wenn du willst, dass ChatGPT für dich arbeitet – und nicht einfach nur neben dir – ist diese Folge für dich. Kathrin Lückenga auf LinkedIn: LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathrin-lueckenga/ Weg von der Textsuppe Als ChatGPT rauskam, war die Euphorie groß: Ein smarter Assistent, der alles kann! Doch schnell zeigte sich – ohne klare Ansagen liefert er Ergebnisse, die austauschbar wirken. Der Grund? Viele behandeln die KI wie einen Automaten, der mit dem richtigen Prompt die perfekte Antwort ausspuckt. Das funktioniert nicht. Wer Copy-Paste-Prompts von LinkedIn nutzt, bekommt auch Texte, die genau so klingen: generisch, glatt, beliebig. Kommunikation statt Code Die Jagd nach dem magischen Prompt ist vorbei. Prompting ist kein Trick, sondern Kommunikation. Wer möchte, dass ChatGPT Ergebnisse liefert, die wirklich passen, muss sagen, was Sache ist. Wer du bist, was du willst, welchen Ton du sprichst – all das gehört ins Briefing. Templates funktionieren nur für den, der sie geschrieben hat. Deine KI kann erst dann performen, wenn du sie anleitest wie einen neuen Mitarbeiter. KI braucht Führung Stell dir vor, du arbeitest mit einem Praktikanten. Du würdest ihm erklären, was wichtig ist, Feedback geben und ihn Schritt für Schritt einarbeiten. Genau so funktioniert erfolgreiche Zusammenarbeit mit KI. Nicht durch Druck, nicht durch strikte Befehle – sondern durch ein gemeinsames Arbeiten am Ziel. Wer KI wie einen echten Kollegen behandelt, bekommt Ergebnisse, die klingen wie aus einem Guss – deinem. Führung statt Vorlage Die beste Promptvorlage ist dein Verstand. KI funktioniert nur so gut, wie du sie führst. Also raus aus der Rolle des Befehlshabers, rein in die Rolle des Coaches. Wenn du deiner KI erklärst, was dir wichtig ist, entwickelt sie sich weiter – und liefert Texte, die individuell, klar und auf den Punkt sind. Nicht weil sie schlauer wird, sondern weil du klarer führst. Noch mehr von den Koertings ...

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for April 12, 2025 is: gustatory • GUSS-tuh-tor-ee • adjective Gustatory describes things that are related to or associated with eating or the sense of taste. // The deli has been widely praised for its astonishing variety of gustatory delights. See the entry > Examples: "For those who have never experienced the gustatory pleasure, these cream puffs consist of freshly baked pastry shells generously covered with powdered sugar and bloated with chilled vanilla pudding that has been pumped into them." — Carl Hamilton, The Cecil Whig (Elkton, Maryland), 12 Feb. 2025 Did you know? Gustatory is a member of a finite set of words that describe the senses with which we encounter our world, the other members being visual, aural, olfactory, and tactile. Like its peers, gustatory has its roots in Latin—in this case, the Latin word gustare, meaning "to taste." Gustare is a direct ancestor of gustatory, gustation, meaning "the act or sensation of tasting," and degustation, meaning "the action or an instance of tasting especially in a series of small portions." More distant relatives of gustare include choose and disgust.

Dass wir das noch erleben dürfen. Die Godfather des Dark Wave sind zurück. Nach 16 Jahren gibt's ein neues Album von The Cure, passend veröffentlicht in der Nacht von Halloween auf Allerheiligen. „Songs of a Lost World“ strahlt Morbidität und Melancholie aus, nicht ohne einen kleinen Hoffnungsschimmer auf unsere verlorene Welt zu werfen. Das sind die Spezialdisziplinen einer Band, die mit ihren rohen Gitarren und eiskalten Synthesizern Ende der 70er, Anfang der 80er gleich zwei Genres definieren sollte: Gothic und New Wave. Auch dank Bandchef Robert Smiths ikonischem Look: leichenblasse Haut, Kajal auf den Augen, Spray in den verwirbelten Haaren, roter Lippenstift. Schon bald schlugen der Band die düsteren Songs selbst aufs Gemüt und sie veröffentlichten als Gegenentwurf Pop-Singles, die dank MTV und den unzähligen Radiosendern, die sie bis heute spielen, zu großen Hits wurden: „Boys Don't Cry“, „The Lovecats“, „Close to Me“ oder „Friday I'm In Love“. Ihr 1989er Meisterwerk „Disintegration“ kombinierte dann Pop-Eingängigkeit und monochrome melancholische Stimmung in Perfektion. Auch „Songs of a Lost World“ ist wieder ein Album aus einem Guss, hat Robert Smith in seinem jüngsten Interview erklärt, weil alle Songideen ursprünglich von ihm stammen. Der Sänger und Bandgründer erzählt in Episode #098TheCure aber auch von den Anfangstagen, seinem Umgang mit Nostalgie, peinlichen Momenten, Cure-Grundsätzen, vom Songschreiben und Live Spielen und warum es verdammt noch mal so lange gedauert hat mit dem neuen Album „SoaLW“. Zu Gast ist der größte The-Cure-Fan in der Stereo.Typen-World, seit 40 Jahren bereichert die Musik der Band das Leben von Musikjournalistkollege Thorsten Sutter. Die neue Folge gibt's jetzt schon, nur eine Woche nach dem Vorgänger... looking at you, Robert Smith.

Die Herausforderung:In der industriellen Eisengussfertigung stehen Unternehmen vor der Herausforderung, Engpässe in der Angebotskalkulation und die Notwendigkeit einer präzisen Kalkulation bei geringen Margen und intensivem Wettbewerb zu überwinden. Die manuelle Bearbeitung jedes Angebots ist zeitaufwendig und steht in einem unvorteilhaften Verhältnis zu den immer höheren Anforderungen an die Kalkulationsgenauigkeit. Die brisante Frage lautet: Wie kann man die Balance zwischen Genauigkeit, Effizienz und Kostenwettbewerb finden?Die Lösung:Die Antwort auf diese Herausforderung kommt in Form einer wegweisenden Co-Innovation und einer KI-basierten Preiskalkulationssoftware von Casculate GmbH. Die Grundlage dieser Innovation bildet das wertvolle Expertenwissen der Industrie-Meister. Die Software generiert individuelle Kalkulationen in Sekundenbruchteilen, indem sie marktübliche CAD-Daten und Kundenvorgaben verarbeitet.Diese automatisierte Preiskalkulation eliminiert Fehlkalkulationen, was nicht nur Kosten einspart, sondern auch die Schnelligkeit und Einfachheit der Angebotserstellung dramatisch verbessert. Gleichzeitig bietet die KI wertvolle Vorschläge für die Auftrags-Disposition, beispielsweise hinsichtlich der optimalen Fertigungsstraße für bestimmte Teile – kostengünstig und effizient.Strategischer Wettbewerbsvorteil:Der strategische Wettbewerbsvorteil durch automatisiertes und präzises Kalkulieren liegt auf mehreren Ebenen. Erstens verhindert die Software Fehlkalkulationen, was zu erheblichen Kosteneinsparungen führt. Zweitens ermöglicht sie eine schnelle und unkomplizierte Angebotserstellung, was die Reaktionszeit auf Kundenanfragen erheblich verkürzt und den Wettbewerbsdruck mindert. Drittens liefert die KI-basierte Lösung effiziente Vorschläge zur Auftrags-Disposition, was die Produktionsplanung optimiert und weitere Kosten senkt.Mehr über das Projekt:Casculate GmbH, als gemeinsames Startup von Industrie-Experten und einem mittelständischen Partner, präsentiert nicht nur eine Lösung für die spezifische Herausforderung in der Eisengussfertigung, sondern etabliert sich als eigenständiges Geschäftsmodell. Das Projekt befindet sich derzeit in der Weiterentwicklung des Minimum Viable Products (MVP) und strebt an, eine zukunftsweisende Plattformlösung auf den Markt zu bringen. Diese Plattform verspricht nicht nur, die internen Herausforderungen der Eisengussindustrie zu lösen, sondern auch anderen Unternehmen in der Branche einen innovativen Weg zu ebnen. Casculate GmbH setzt damit Maßstäbe für die Zukunft der industriellen Kalkulation und Produktionsplanung. Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Das ganze Jahr über präsentieren wir euch bei den SWR1 Meilensteinen Alben, die aus musikjournalistischer Sicht absolute Meilensteine sind. Zur Weihnachtszeit werden auch wir etwas emotionaler und präsentieren euch mal die ganz persönlichen Meilensteine unserer SWR1 Musikredaktion. Carolyne Mas und ihre "Mas Hysteria" Den Anfang macht in dieser Weihnachtsfolge übrigens kein Musikwunsch aus der Musikredaktion von SWR1 Rheinland-Pfalz, sondern ein Meilensteine-Hörer. Frank Bick hat sich für den Podcast "Mas Hysteria" von Singer/Songwriterin Carolyne Mas rausgesucht. Eigentlich ist es auch gar kein richtiges Album, sondern der Mitschnitt eines Radiokonzertes Anfang der 80er-Jahre, das Carolyne Mas gegeben hat. Ganz besonders der Song "Sittin' in the Dark" hat es dem Meilensteine-Fan angetan, wie er erzählt. Für ihn ist der Song pure Nostalgie. Er hat "Sittin' in the Dark" häufig in seiner Zeit beim Militär gehört, während er mit seinen Kameraden nachts in einem VW Käfer von Wildeshausen nach Wesel gefahren ist. "Da haben wir uns natürlich Kassetten mitgenommen! [...] Da musste jeder was mitbringen. [...] Auf dem Rückweg vom Bund war da super Laune. [...] Da passte diese Musik super rein", erzählt SWR1-Hörer Frank Bick im Podcast. Auch wenn einige Menschen Carolyn Mas hier und da mal als weibliche Bruce Springsteen betitelt haben, weil sie mit Teilen seiner E-Street Band gespielt hat, vergleicht SWR1 Musikredakteur Stephan Fahrig sie doch eher mit Patti Smith oder den Pretenders – neben dem Boss ist auch dieser Vergleich durchaus schmeichelnd zu verstehen. Vorurteilsfrei: George Michael und "Listen Without Prejudice Vol.1" Nachdem "Wham!" sich Mitte der 80er Jahre getrennt hatten, machte auch George Michael als Solokünstler weiter. Sein erstes Soloalbum "Faith" – auf dem auch der gleichnamige Megahit war – war 1987 ein riesen Erfolg gewesen. Mit "Listen Without Prejudice Vol.1" stand er also vor der Mammutaufgabe des zweiten Albums, das viele Künstler fürchten. Das zweite Album gilt bei Bands und Solokünstlern gleichermaßen als das schwierigste, weil das häufig darüber entscheidet, ob der Künstler in die Bedeutungslosigkeit abdriftet oder sich als ernst zu nehmender Künstler etabliert. Und George Michael emanzipierte sich mit dem Album von dem vorangegangen Look und Sound seiner Musik und seiner Person. Es war nicht mehr so schillernd und voll auf die zwölf, sondern im Gegenteil: Es war zurückgenommen und jazzig, wie SWR1 Musikredakteur Stephan Fahrig im Meilensteine Podcast beschreibt. "Er macht gleich klar: Das ist George Michael! So kennt ihr ihn nicht. Das ist nicht Disko "Bumm, Bumm, Bumm" von Wham, das ist auch nicht der Tanzkasper aus "Faith"", erzählt Stephan Fahrig. Die Plattenfirma war mit dem "neuen George Michael" nicht so zufrieden, weil sie sich auf einem Album natürlich mehr Hits erhofft hat. Denn die erfolgreichen Singles sind es, die die Albumverkäufe ankurbeln und nicht der eigene Anspruch des Künstlers. Einen großen Hit hat die Plattenfirma dann auch bekommen: "Freedom! '90". Powerfrau Alicia Keys und ihr Grammyalbum: "As I Am" Mit "As I Am" hat Alicia Keys 2007 ihr drittes Album rausgebracht und zahlenmäßig passend dafür auch drei Grammys bekommen. Rund sechs Millionen Mal hat sich die Platte weltweit verkauft. Alicia Keys kommt mitten aus New York City, kennt das Großstadtleben und ist gleichzeitig aber auch ein Kind der klassischen Musik. Schon mit fünf Jahren hat sie Klavierunterricht bekommen und auch die Musik der großen Meister wie Mozart, Chopin etc. gespielt. Und genau diese beiden Welten verbindet sie in Ihrer Musik zu einer: der raue, harte Großstadtflair und die feine Zerbrechlichkeit und Technik der Klassik. Das perfekte Bindemittel dafür ist ihre kraftvolle und doch oft kratzige Stimme. Nicht nur ihre Stimme ist kraftvoll, sondern die ganze Person Alicia Keys ist eine echte Powerfrau. Das zeigt sie uns immer wieder und sie hat sich für das Album eine weitere starke Frau als Songwriterin zur Seite geholt: Linda Perry. Diese hatte in den 90ern ihren großen Durchbruch als Sängerin der "4 Non Blondes". Linda Perrys eigentliche Karriere startete dann aber mehr im Hintergrund als Songwriterin und Produzentin. Sie hat nicht nur mit Alicia Keys zusammengearbeitet, sondern auch mit vielen anderen großen weiblichen Stars wie Pink, Gwen Stefani, Christina Aguilera oder Céline Dion. Auf "As I Am" war Linda natürlich passenderweise auch am Song "Superwoman" beteiligt. Moderner 80er Pop aus Australien: Client Liaison Die 80er sind zumindest musikalisch sowas wie das "Lieblingsjahrzehnt" der Deutschen. Und auch heute feiert die junge Generation von Musikfans und Musikmachern begeistert die Sounds der 80er-Jahre. Megastar The Weeknd ist da ganz vorne mit dabei, aber auch der deutsche Produzent Puple Disco Machine. Auch die australische Band Client Liaison hat sich ganz den 80ern verschrieben und macht nicht nur Musik im Sound der 80er, sondern ist auch in ihrem ganzen Auftreten und ihren Performances ein echtes 80er-Jahre Gesamtkunstwerk, erklärt SWR1 Musikredakteur Dave Jörg im Podcast, der selber großer Fan der 80er ist. "Die klingen nicht nur nach 80ern und frühen 90ern, die stylen sich auch so. Die sind in Australien bekannt für ihre aufwendigen Videoclips und da inszenieren die sich oft in so einer hedonistischen 80er-Jahre Konsumwelt – so yuppie-mäßig. [...] Die nehmen das schon auf die Schippe, aber die servieren so ein gesamtes Konzept", sagt SWR1-Musikredakteur Dave Jört im Podcast über die australische Band. Die musikalische Fortführung von Steely Dan Nachdem die Band Steely Dan sich 1981 aufgelöst hatte, machte Sänger Donald Fagen als Solokünstler weiter. In diesem Jahr hat Donald Fagen seinen 75. Geburtstag gefeiert. Sein erstes Soloalbum "The Nightfly" veröffentliche Fagen relativ kurz nach der Auflösung von Steely Dan im Jahr 1982. Das Besondere an dieser Platte ist zum einen, dass es ein Konzeptalbum ist, dass sich sozusagen von vorne bis hinten in einem Guss hören lässt und dabei zwar musikalisch anspruchsvoll ist, aber trotzdem auch ganz beiläufig gut zu hören ist. Man kann der Platte trotz der Komplexität einfach folgen. Das funktioniert natürlich am besten, wenn man sich geniale Studiomusiker mit dazu holt. Durch seine Arbeit bei Steely Dan war das persönliche Telefonbuch von Donald Fagen durchaus nützlich, was auch sein Soloalbum angeht und er hat sich für "The Nightfly" jede Menge fantastischer Musiker dazugeholt, unter anderem auch Basslegende Marcus Miller und Schlagzeuger und Toto-Gründungsmitglied Jeff Porcaro. __________ Über diese Songs wird im Podcast gesprochen (02:04) – “Sittin' in the Dark” von Carolyn Mas (11:50) – “Thomas Dunson's Revenge” von Carolyn Mas (17:13) – “Praying for Time” von George Michael (20:50) – “Cowboys And Angels” von George Michael (22:04) – “Freedom! ‘90” von George Michael (28:03) – “Nocturne Nr. 20 in Cis-Moll” von Frédéric Chopin, gespielt von Sophie Pacini (28:51) – “As I Am Intro” von Alicia Keys (30:28) – “No One” von Alicia Keys (32:19) – “Teenage Love Affair” von Alicia Keys (33:32) – “Superwoman” von Alicia Keys (35:23) – “Tell You Something” von Alicia Keys (38:19) – “Off White Limousine” von Client Liaison (41:23) – “The Bravest Beginnings” von Client Liaison (45:41) – “Where Do We Belong” von Client Liaison (47:27) – “Home” von Client Liaison (54:10) – “The Nightfly” von Donald Fagen (56:14) – “I.G.Y” von Donald Fagen (58:57) – “Maxine” von Donald Fagen __________ Shownotes: Youtube-Kanal von Carolyne Mas: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqVgiU5rjS4jvv9_cC7boXQ Website Carolyne Mas: https://carolynemas.com/ Das legendäre “Freedom!” Video von George Michael: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diYAc7gB-0A Alica Keys perfomt ihre Lieblings Songs von “As I Am” im Studio: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UeDZ8Me7iEc Alicia Keys Interview der Vogue: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AwZjWigTTHM Youtube-Kanal von Client Liaison: https://www.youtube.com/@clientliaisonmusic Podcast-Tipp: SWR2 Wissen: https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/swr2-wissen/8758500/ __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

Prepare to dive headfirst into a rabbit hole so deep, it'll make Wonderland look like a kiddie pool. Welcome back to part two of our explosive investigation into the ominously named "Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars." What's that? Never heard of it? Oh, you must be new here. This 45-page document, my dear friends, isn't just another conspiracy theory we're throwing around for kicks. No, no. This is the playbook, the ultimate guide used by the oligarchs, elites, BlackRocks, Soros, Rothchilds, Rockefellers, and all those other people your parents warned you about. From the dark hallways of the Bilderberg meeting to the secretive schemes of the global puppet masters, we're breaking it down, leaving no stone unturned. If you thought part one was mind-bending, wait until you see what we've got lined up for you now. And hey, if you haven't caught part one yet, take a little detour back there. You wouldn't read the last chapter of a mystery novel first, would you? Well, you might, but that's not the point. Sign up for FREE at https://austinadams.substack.com to get all the annotated details, hyperlinks, receipts, and more. Like a five-course meal for the curious mind, we've got everything you need to dive deeper into this topic. Ready for a visual feast? Follow me on YouTube to witness the documents, the proofs, and everything else we're serving up. And while you're at it, don't forget to leave that five-star review. Tell me your craziest thoughts, your favorite color, or why you think cats rule the internet. I appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. But enough chit-chat, grab your tin foil hats and let's jump into Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, Part 2. The truth is out there, and it's about time someone put it on display! All Links: linktr.ee/theaustinjadams Merch: https://antielite.club Full Transcription: Adams Archive. Hello, you beautiful people and welcome to the Adams Archive. My name is Austin Adams, and thank you so much for listening today. On today's episode, we are going to be continuing our deep dive into what I have described as the single most disturbing, least discussed top secret document that anybody has ever gotten their hands on. Alright? Now, if you don't know what we're talking about, you should go back to the very first deep dive that we did last week, but the document itself is called Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars. I will give you a brief synopsis to catch you up to speed regarding where we are at within this document. It is a 45 page document, and again, I highly recommend that you start with part one. So go back, listen to part one, then come back here and listen to part two because it is well worth your time. This document has been the, what I would say, the playbook. By the oligarchs, by the elites, by the BlackRocks, by the Soros, by the Rothchilds, and the, you know, Rockefellers of the world. Absolute to a t playbook of how we got to where we are today, starting all the way back in the early forties when this document was created and presented at the very first Bilderberg meeting to the policy committee. Okay, so we will take a deep dive into the second half of this document. If you have not heard the first half, go listen to that now, and then I'll meet you right back here in about an hour and 20 minutes or so. Okay? But ev all of the podcast that I've done so far, I would say this is by far the craziest thing. And again, I, I discussed why last time. Right. The reason that this is so disturbing is not because of the individual. The reason this is so disturbing is because of how they've sociologically and, uh, been engineering the, the mass public of the world for so long successfully. And we'll get into a little bit more about that in just a minute. But before we do that, I need you to subscribe. If you're not already, which you should be, I need you to leave a five star review, which I would appreciate greatly. Takes five seconds outta your day, means a lot to me. Honestly, I would really highly appreciate it if you took the moments that we have right here before the episode starts. There's going to be the intro in just a minute. So leave a five star review. Tell me the craziest thing about this document. Tell me why, what you loved about this deep dive. Tell me your favorite color. I don't care. Leave a five star review. I would appreciate it from the bottom of my heart. Then head over to the sub stack Austin Adams dot sub stack.com, Austin Adams dot sub stack.com. It is free to sign up. You will get the deep dives directly to your email. Last deep dive. I went into this in a ton of detail, a lot more detail than I anticipated where I found hyperlinks. I found the, um, receipts for everything that they were discussing within this document. The guy who was the head of the Harvard project in 1940s that was funded by the Rothschilds, I actually linked to the actual scientific findings itself. I, I, I went into a lot of detail in, into this sub, uh, giving you all of the links that I could possibly find regarding this document, breaking it down, giving you my opinions on each part of it from the first half, and giving you additional resources so you could go. Dive deeper into this topic. So head over there. It's free, Austin Adams dot sub stack.com. On top of that, you'll also get the full podcast, video podcast. As a reminder, you can follow me on YouTube and you'll actually be able to follow everything in video here. Alright? You'll be able to see what I'm talking about, the documents, the everything that we write up here on my screen. Okay? Uh, so head over to the sub stack, the highlighted version of this that I went through on this, uh, podcast is in there right now for you annotated all of the fun stuff. Go head over there right now. And without further ado, let's jump into silent Weapons for Quiet Wars part. The Adams Archive. All right. Silent weapons for quiet Wars part two. Now I'll give you a brief quick two to three to maybe four minute synopsis of what this document is, just to catch you up to speed. Even if you listen to last week, you might need a little refresher. So this document represents the adopted doctrine by the Policy Committee of the most. Powerful people, powerful families in the world today and a hundred years ago when this was implemented. Okay? 1954 was the first meeting that this was presented at at the Bilderberg Group. All right, so the following document dated May, 1979 was found on July 7th, 1986 and an I B M copier that had been purchased at a surplus deal. Now, if you think the first deep, deep dive that I did into this, if you think the first breakdown of silent weapons for quiet wars was disturbing, you are going to find this second half of this. Far more disturbing. It gets into the family unit unit. It gets into the position of the mother and the father and how they're going to, uh, break down the family unit from the inside. Okay? There's a ton of disturbing information in this document, but it, you need to know it. You need to understand what they've been doing to our families, what they've been doing to our economy, what they've been doing to, to our education system, all of it. And it's outlined perfectly in this document. Okay? So let me catch you up to speed with where we were at already. The first half of silent weapons for Quiet Wars broke down where this document came from, which was a c i a, uh, elite unit, which was used to at least understand the, the conspiracy that was going on behind closed doors. So they picked a elite group of people based on their personality types, what seems to be narcissists and sociopaths. Right. People who have a, you know, what they described to be, uh, less than, um, let's see if we can find the actual words from it. Uh, but the manual itself is an analog declaration of intent. Such a writing must be secured from public scrutiny, otherwise it might be recognized as a technically formal declaration of domestic war. Okay. The solution of today's problems requires an approach which is ruthlessly candid with no agonizing over religious, moral, or cultural values. Okay? Then it gets into what is social engineering, how they could control the world with the push of a button based on data analysis. The Harvard Project that started it all, uh, which began in 1949, funded by the Rockefeller family, and they began it at Harvard. And then it was implemented with, along with the Air Force and moved over into the private sector in 1953. Okay. Because of its feasibility of economic and social engineering. Okay? Now, what we went into in the first part got a little technical, which was the fact that all people can be subjected and looked at and mathematically broken down the same way that energy can be. And that's how they began this theory of economics surrounding the theories around energy. So we went into that last time. Then we went into what is shock testing, right? How they were going to leverage data by having certain things that they implemented purposefully to see how it would break down the family unit to see how it would, you know, one correlation that they used was that when the price of gas went up, the, it actually largely correlated with the amount of headaches. So there's a lot of different ways that they've been manipulating large data sets. Now, if you think that this was terrifying then in 1954, I cannot imagine how terrifying this has become today with things like large language learning models like Chachi pt, right, with the use of AI in today's world. Alright, so as we scroll through this, again, it talked about basically how people needed to have a quiet war waged against them because you are so stupid, because you couldn't, you don't belong with the money that you were given you. There's no reason that you should be allowed to exist in a world where you have freedoms. Without an oligarchy above you controlling and social engineering, the general public, because without them, without our saviors, without those in positions of power of wealth, we would just be monkeys with tools, right? We would, we would eventually kill ourselves off according to them. So now where we pick up on this is worse, has not only the prices of commodities, right? We're getting back into what was economic shock testing and how do they use this? Not only the prices of commodities, but also the availability of labor can be used as a means of shock testing, labor strikes, deliver excellent tests, shocks to an economy, especially in the critical service areas of trucking, communication, public utilities, et cetera. Right now we go back to the. Strikes by the truckers that was being waged against people when they did the, uh, in Canada, right. The trucker rallies that began around Canada and then flowed into the United States briefly, but it says byock testing. It has found that there was a direct relationship between the availability of money flowing into the economy and the real psychological outlook and responses of masses of people dependent upon that availability. For example, there's a measurable quantitative relationship between the price of gas and the probability that a person would experience a headache, feel a need to watch a violent movie, smoke a cigarette, or go to a tavern for a mug of beer. Hmm. So they leveraged the shock testing, right, which is built off of the aviation model to see how much, uh, explosive loads a, a airplane could take without ripping itself apart. And they used it against people. Now they give all of the formulas here that they used. They're a little bit too technical here, but I'll go ahead and pull it up on the page for you. A little too technical for me to break down, but maybe you're a mathematician and or economist and you understand this. Uh, but I will leave that to you. It says, when the price of gasoline is shocked, all of the coefficients with Round G and the denominator are evaluated at the same time. If b, G and M were independent and sufficient for description of the economy, then three shock tests would be necessary to evaluate the system. Uh, now it, so it's just talking about how they actually implemented these things. It says this is the result into which we substitute to get that set of conditions, of prices of commodities, bad news on tv, which will deliver a collapse of public morale ripe for takeover. They actually have a formula for how much bad news, how much terrible propaganda, how many shootings, how many this, how many that they need to have over a time period in order to make the public more morale ripe for takeover once the economic price in sales coefficients A, J and K and BK and J. So these are where the formulas come into control may be translated into the technical supply and demand. Coefficient shock testing of a given commodity is then repeated to get the time rate of change of these technical coefficients. Right? So this gets a little technical again, but it starts to come back right now. Now I'm drinking a liquid death and I had somebody point out here, you know, liquid deaths were fairly, uh, common and, and especially in like the podcasting world and then. Um, but I, I'm a big fan of sparkling water and I actually like the can sparkling water. Um, but I also liked the marketing of Liquid Death, but apparently they have some advertising on their website, which they're great at advertising and marketing, but they actually have some advertising and marketing on their website with a shirt that ex exclaimed. It's said that basically they, as a brand had a witch come in and do a seance of some demonic type into the water, so you could even be drinking a demon. I, I don't know what that means, but you know, if I start saying, uh, Latin throughout this episode, you know, why blame it on the liquid death? And to combat that, I am drinking red wine. The water of the. Our Lord and Savior. Okay. Um, economic amplifiers, just kidding, uh, are the active components of economic engineering. The basic characteristic of an amplifier, mechanical, electrical, or economic is that it receives an input control signal and delivers energy from an independent energy source to a specified output terminal in the predictable relationship to that out input control signal, right? So this is the introduction to economic amplifiers. So economic amplifiers, again, are the active components of economic engineerings, right? So what, how do we actually move society? That is the amplifiers that basic characteristic of an amplifier, mechanical, electro electrical, or economic, is that it receives an input control signal, right? An input and delivers energy from an independent energy source to a specified output. Terminal in a predictable relationship to that input control signal. Right? So we do this on one end. This is the input output model that made the Harvard e Economist got his Nobel Peace Prize, or whatever the prize, I'm pretty sure it was the Nobel Peace Prize that he got for this input output model. The simplest form of an economic amplifier is a device called, Advertising, right? If I do this thing on the outside of this equals this thing, right? That's the money machine. If I put $1 in on this end, $2 comes in on this end, I'm gonna put all of my dollars back in. On the other side, if a person is spoken to by a TV advertiser as if he were a 12 year old, then due to suggestibility, he will, with a certain probability, respond or react to that suggestion with the uncritical response of a 12 year old, and will reach into his economic reservoir and deliver its energy to buy that product on impulse when he passes it in the store. An economic amplifier may have several inputs and output its response might be instantaneous or delayed. Its circuit symbol, might be a rotary switch if its options are exclusive. Qualitative go or no go, or it might have its parametric input, output relationships specified by a matrix with internal energy sources represented. Okay, so whatever it's for might be its purpose is to govern the flow of energy from a source to an input sync in direct relationship to an input control signal. For this reason, it is called an active circuit element or component. Economic amplifiers fall into classes called strategies, and in comparison with economic amplifiers, the specific internal functions of an economic amplifier are called logistical instead of electrical, right? We're getting technical again here. It says here, here's where we come back though. In the design of an economic amplifier, we must have some idea of at least five functions, and here they are. The availability, the availability of input signals. The desired output control objectives, the strategic objective, the available economic power sources, and the logistical options. The process of defining and evaluating these factors and incorporating the economic amplifier into an economic system have been popularly called game theory. Okay? So game theory is how you define the inputs and outputs, figuring out the economic amplifiers, and then utilizing those and leveraging those from a social engineering perspective. Now, the design of an economic amplifier begins with the specification of the power level of the output, right? So think of it when it comes to advertising as the amount of advertising dollars, right? It can range from personal to national, the second condition. And in their case, when they're talking about people, they're saying, are we going after a single individual? As the power level, or are we doing an entire nation at one time? The second condition is accuracy response. How accurately the input action is a function of the input commands. High gain, combined with strong feedback, helps to deliver the required precision. Most of the error in the input data signal, personal input, most of the error will be in the input data signal. Personal input data tends to be specified, while national input data tends to be statistical, right? So we're talking about anecdotal versus statistical data. Now, here are the inputs, right? Questions to be answered. The what, the where, the why, the when, the how, and the who. Those are the first questions that you have to answer regarding your inputs. What are you gonna do? Where are you gonna do it? Why are you gonna do it? When are you going to do it? How are you going to do it? And who are you going to do it to? Right? So what are we gonna do? We're gonna release a virus to the general public. Where are we gonna do it? Well, we're gonna start in Wuhan China. Why are we gonna do it? To implement totalitarian authoritarian pharmaceutical injections into people's bodies for profit? When are we gonna do it? How are we gonna do it? And who are we gonna do it to? General sources of information, telephone taps, analysis of garbage surveillance and behavior of children in school, right? So this is how they used to actually get the data. Now it's all on a mass scale. Now it's social media, right? So the standard of living, right? And that tells you how much this has been amplified, how big this has gotten in the last 180, 80 years since this was implemented. We went from analyzing people's garbage surveillance, phone taps, and the behavior of children to two, knowing your every move, your every conversation, your every Google search, all analyzed in huge data sets. Now, the standard of living by was measured food, shelter, clothing, transportation, the social contacts, telephone itemized record of calls, family marriage certificates and birth certificates, friends associates, memberships and organizations, and the political affiliations. Then they get into the personal paper trail, personal buying habits. Use of checking accounts, credit card purchases, tagged credit card purchases, right? Talking about U P C codes or barcodes, people's assets, checking accounts savings, real estate business, automotive safety deposits, stock market liabilities, right? Creditors, enemies and loans. Government sources such as welfare, social security, U S D A, surplus food grants and subsidies. And then the principle of this ploy. The citizen will almost always make the collection of information easy if he can operate on the free sandwich. Principle of EAT now, pay later, right? Eat now, pay later. Maybe I'll get the vaccine so that I can go to a concert and later I'll die of myocarditis maybe. I'll take a P P C loan for $10,000 and that might, you know, make me feel better about my business getting completely shut down, which I used to profit every day from $10,000, but, you know, $10,000 is nice. But what they don't tell you is they're gonna come ask for that from you within interest after they analyze your application and tell you that, oh wait, you really didn't qualify. We want our money back. And think of how many applications this comes into, right? The free sandwich principle comes into the world coin, right? Just scan your iris for 500 bucks and now we have your digital identity on the blockchain forever. It's never going away, but you got 500 bucks. But also now, in order for you to pay your groceries, we scan your iris, we check your social credit score, and now you can't buy the meat that you wanted because, eh, you said something about Joe Biden. Whatever it is, government sources. Here's how they intimidate you. It literally says, government sources via intimidation, I r S, OSHA census, et cetera. And then other government sources are surveillance of US mail. Okay? Then it gets into habit patterns. So how do they figure out the programming strengths and weaknesses? Activities such as sports and hobbies, legal, fear, anger, crime, record, hospital records for drug sensitivities, reaction to pain, psychiatric records for fears, anger, angers, discuss adaptability, reaction to stimuli, violence, suggestibility, hypnosis, pain, pleasure, love, and sex. Methods of coping. How do you deal with things, right? Consumption of alcohol, consumption of drugs, entertainment, religious factors. Payment, modus operandi, do you pay on time? Payment of telephone bills, energy purchases, water repayment of loans, house payments, automobile credit cards. Then political sensitivity, right? So they're just, they're figuring out all of the data points, right? What are all of the inputs, right? What are the things that they can measure? What is the, what is the total? These are all listing out. Here's what's going in, right? Here's the activities, here's the legal records, here's the drug sensitivities. Here's how much alcohol we're consuming as a nation. Here's how many drugs we're consuming. Here's the percentage of people that are paying off their utility bills. Right? Here's, here's the political belief systems through Census bureaus. Here's how many people aren't paying off their i r s, uh, paid, you know, their taxes. Here's the police records that are going up, the driving records, the reports made by police insurance percentages. Anti-establishment acquaintances, right? So those are the inputs such as legal inputs, behavioral control, right? Um, and then they list off what those behavioral controls are. Excuses for investigations, search, arrest, employment of for force to modify behavior, court records, police records, driving records. Then the national input information, prices of commodities, sales investments, right? So before we were talking about personal, now we're talking about national banks and credit bureaus. Credit information, payment information, polls and surveys, publications, telephone records. Okay? So those are all of the inputs. Okay? Now here's the outputs. Here's the create controlled situations. Manipulate the economy, society, control by control of compensation and income. All right, so it says Allocates opportunities, right? So this is the sequence in which the outputs come. Allocate opportunities, destroy opportunities, right? They allocate the amount of jobs, then they destroy them. Controls the economic environment, controls the availability of raw materials, controls capital controls, bank rates, inflation of currency, possession of property, industrial capacity, manufacturing, availability of goods, the prices of commodities services, labor force payments to government officials, legal functions, a advertising media contracts, material available for TV viewing. Disengages attention from real issues, engages emotions, creates disorder, chaos, and insanity. Controls design of more probing tax forms, controls, surveillance, storage of information. Develop psychological analysis and profiles of individuals controls, legal functions, sociological factors, health options, praise on weaknesses, cripple strengths, and then leaches, wealth and substances, right? So now it gives you a table of strategies, right? Here's your inputs, here's your outputs. Okay? So if the elites do this, then they expect this. If they keep the public ignorant, they expect less public organization. If they maintain access to control points for feedback, the required reaction for inputs is prices and sales. If they create preoccupation, they lower the defense, right? If the family unit is so disintegrated to where the father goes to work, nine to five, the mom goes to work nine to five, they drop their kid off at school, nine to five, they come home, they eat dinner, they go to bed. Well, in the meantime, The job that they're at is controlled through corporations, which are controlled through these large entities like BlackRock and Vanguard, which is controlled by these families. In the meantime, your child goes to school and while your child's going to school, all of the books that were, they were funded by all of the teachers who were hired, all have the same ideology, which is in line with these companies in corporations and organizations like BlackRock, Vanguard, and these families. Right now, they've lowered your defense attack the family unit. If you do this, you control the education of the young. If you give less cash and more credit, more self-indulgence and more data, if you attack the privacy of the church, you destroy faith in this sort of government. If you. Give social conformity computer. You get computer program simplicity, computer programming, simplicity. So social conformity, meaning how can we get everybody to act in one way, right? How can we get them to move as a flock? And if we get them to move as a flock, we can have more successful data analysis. Minimize the tax protest. If you do this, you maximize economic data and minimum enforcement problems. If you stabilize the consent, the simplicity coefficients, if you tighten control of variables, simpler computer input data, you get greater predictability, right? If you proper timing, less data shift and blurring, if you maximize control, minimum resistance to control. If you collapse the currency, you destroy the faith of the American people in each other, right? So if we do this, then this is what we get. And so, If we want this, if we want this output, we do this input. If we want to destroy the faith in the American people in each other, we collapse their currency. If we want minimum resistance to control, we maximize our control initially, right? If we want to maximize economic data and minimum enforcement problems, we minimize the tax protest. If we want to control the education of the young, we attack the family unit, right? And how many things come out of that? How many times have they attacked the family unit and, and specifically for the idea to control the education of the young for what purpose? They're propagandizing. They're, they're hypnotizing, they're implanting ideas of the future of adults. Through the education system, right? If you want to lower the defense, you create preoccupation. If we want this thing, we do this thing first to get it right. So figure out your what output you're desiring and then reverse engineer the input. Now, next part is where it gets interesting and a little bit less technical. Alright? Diversion, the primary strategy and it says, Experience has prevent that. The simplest method of securing a silent weapon and gaining control of the public is to keep the public undisciplined and ignorant to the basic system principles on the one hand, while keeping them confused, disorganized, and distracted with matters of no real importance. On the other hand, diversion is the main strategy of societal engineering, right? You wanna talk about the Black Lives Matter riots over one single individual, while probably tens and twenties, dozens of those happen every quarter, every month, but they decide to hone in on it. They put all of the news media on this one event, right? George Floyd, because they're creating a divergent or di diversion right now. That's not to say that that wasn't, uh, something that should be talked about or shouldn't. Be protested or whatever, but it is saying that there was a formulated intent by the news media to cause that to be something of discussion, right? If every single news company plays that clip over and over and over again, and it's all shocking enough, it's gonna cause this output, right? If we desire the output, the output being a diversion, so that we can then ramp up our control, well, what's the input? The input is a diversion. George Floyd. Now this is achieved by, or, or even, let's take it even further, it maybe the, the entire diversion was covid and pharmaceutical companies took advantage, but who really took advantage of Covid, right? Who's talking about the new normal? Oh, that was pretty good. Claude Schwab, right? The World Economic Forum. It's a new normal, right? They want to re-engineer society, and they're not even hiding this from you anymore. The great reset is just silent weapons for quiet wars spoken out loud. They no longer care that it's silent or not right? The societal engineering, they, they've pulled back the curtain now, whatever that, that Frank Zappa quote, right? Um, when, when the, when the illusion becomes too expensive or too difficult to maintain, they will pull back the curtain and reveal the cinder block wall behind the show, right? It's like they know that we know. Now comes authoritarian action because they can no longer do this. S slight of hand bullshit. They can no longer tell you that elections are, aren't, uh, in some way, shape or form. Uh, manipulatable, right as shown by some of the cases that we saw. They can no longer have this position when there's been court cases to back it up. The general public is talking about it consistently. So they just pull back the curtain. They go, all right guys, you've got us. The great reset is happening today, right? We, we will no longer eat cows, we'll eat bugs. Well, not me, I love steak, but you'll eat the bugs. So that's what they want. They want the diversion, right? They want you to be confused, disorganized, distracted, with matters of no real importance. I. Gender ideology. I hate talking about gender ideology specifically because you're playing into the diversion of the elites. This is exactly what they want, is us fighting each other about Leah Thomas, while some 17 year old cuts their boobs off and proclaims that they're a man. They've gotten us so good with this, right? And I, I have such a problem with perpetuating this conversation because it's simply a diversion. A diversion from something greater, a much, much bigger conversation. That's not to say that we shouldn't be having this conversations because they caused this internal war between political ideologies. Were, we're, we're having a, a mass taking over of our youth, right? 22% of children now identify as lgbtqia a element P plus, right? 22%. One in five. The generation before it was like 8%. Gen, uh, millennials before that, it's like 2% before that it's 0.8%, right? Like boomers is like 2% of people identify and the vast majority of those are the L, the G's and the B's, not the T's or the Q's or the I's or the A's. Right? But so many people are like, oh, I'm non-binary. They're Gen Zers out there trying to feel special. So we have to make, we have to proclaim these things. We have to fight when they're shaking their dicks in front of us at, you know, in our children at Pride parades like. You have to have that discussion. But I hate having it so consistently every time, like I, I, it's, I feel like a broken record, but you have to have these discussions. But it's like the conservative side has gotten drawn into it just as much as the liberal side, right? They want you to be on those sides. They don't want people in the middle talking about silent weapons for quiet wars. They want you speaking about gender identity. They want you speaking about Joe Biden falling asleep during a presidential conversation. They want you speaking about all of the ridiculousness that is going on in this world today, but they don't want you talking about this societal engineering at a mass scale by the elites. So instead, they muddy the water with transgender non-binary, high inflated gas prices, no toilet paper. Uh, George Floyd's. Uh, riots in New York over a PSS five. All of these things are diversions and, and, and tactics to divert your attention from this hand, which is really doing something with this one over here, right over here. So it says, disengage. This is achieved by disengage their minds, sabotaging their mental activities, providing a low quality program of public education in mathematics, logic, systems, design and economics, and discouraging technical creativity. Okay? So again, these diversions are done by disengaging their mind, sabotaging their mental activities, providing low quality program of public education in mathematics, logic systems, designs and economics, and discouraging technical creativity, engaging their emotions. Increasing their self-indulgence in their indulgence in emotional and physical activities by unrelenting emotional confrontations and attacks. Quote, mental and emotional rape by way of constant barrage of sex, violence, and wars in the media, especially the TV and the newspapers, giving them what they desire in excess junk food for thought and depriving them of what they really need. Right? So you wanna talk about the sexualization of our generation? You wanna talk about the only fan's culture, the porn hub culture. Right? How, how, how, how all of these social media companies have said that they are. You know, they are, they're bringing our society to a place where there's more connection. It's like, no, we're more disconnected than whenever we have more depression than ever. Right? All, all of these things have come together to make us be able to pull up our phone, find a, you know, a, a model who's willing to show themselves off for a few dollars. Release the hormones that were meant to create connection, literally hijacking your, your center of energy. Your, you know, there's a reason that the, the, the kundalini, uh, yoga is, is what it is, is because there's your sexuality, your sexual energy, all of those things are, are combined to create your, your emotions, your hierarchy of, uh, of, of chemicals in your body. Like you have a specific set of chemicals that are sexual in nature for procreation, for connection with your spouse, for, to, to, to make you want to stick around for your children, to make you like. So when you hijack as a societal engineering, you hijack that. You make, you make porn so cheap you don't even have to pay for it. Like, imagine that, how is it that there's so much unrelenting, un unbelievable amounts of porn out there, and you don't have to pay for any of it. Right. None of it, none of it has to come from your pocket. You have a unlimited access, a river of, of women and men and whatever types of situations you could ever imagine in your dreams, that's so far from reality of what you would actually have access to or even really want if you were in a, in a personal setting with somebody, right? It's like this unlimited river of, of this biohacking of your sexual energy to the point where it devalues that connection. It devalues your connection with your spouse. It devalues those, those, uh, moments with the person that you love or, or the connection or the release that you get after months and months or years and years of, of, uh, of, uh, sexual non indulgence of celibacy. Right, but when you can get one off every night from pulling up your iPhone, like what, what is the, what the, the, the same internal drive that would normally make you go find a connection and find love and settle down and, and have those feelings for someone is now redirected, hijacked. It's the junk food, right? It's like literally instead of getting satiating amounts of nutrients, which have actual value, you're eating candy, right? Which feels good in your mouth for about five seconds, but the actual outcome is not, not what it's meant for, right? It's not meant to be 20 seconds of joy or, or elated feeling or, you know, release of oxytocin for the purpose of release of oxytocin. It's, it's meant for connection, right? So they achieved this. By unrelenting emotional confrontations and attacks, mental, emotional rape by way of constant barrage of sex, violence, and wars in the media, especially in the TV and in the newspapers, giving them what they desire in excess junk food for thought and depriving them of what they really need. Right? You wanna talk about all of the Kim Kardashians, the, the Jersey shores, right? All of those while, while people used to read hemmingway and used to, uh, color and or color used to color with crayons back in the day, they used to, to paint and, and learn to have real artistic technical abilities, right? It says, these preclude their interest in, in discovery of the silent weapons of social automation technology. The general rule is that there is a profit in confusion. The more confusion, the more profit. Therefore the best approach is to create problems and then offer solutions. Here's your summary of diversion media. Keep the adult public attention diverted away from real social issues and captivated by matters of no real importance. Schools keep the young public ignorant of real mathematics, real economics, real law and real history, entertainment. Keep the public entertainment below a sixth grade level. That's what they think about you, and that's how they divert your attention, right? They give you the absolute minimum, minimum amount of entertainment to where you're, you're the same way that they said they could advertise at a 12, 12 year old level, right? They entertain you at a 12 year old level too, so you have to seek these things, right? You have to seek. External stimulation. That's why podcasts, like even hyper-technical podcasts, like some of the podcasts I listened to with, with Lex Friedman and the discussions that he has with people in AI or mathematicians or astrophysicists or like, they're far above my level of intellect for me to jump in and spar with these people intellectually and on these certain topics. But there, there's something about them that is satiating, right? It's not the Kardashians, it's not the, the Jersey Shores. It's, it's something that like your mind just craves that there's been none of, there was none in the public education system. There was none of it when you went to most universities, right? The pay to play on the real education is like so much more difficult to actually get above that level. And this says work, keep the public busy, busy, busy, with no time to think back on the farm with the other animals. Now we get into consent. The primary victory, a silent weapon system operates upon data obtained from a docile public by legal, but not always lawful force. Much information is made available to silent weapon system programmers through the I r s see studies in the structure of American economy for an I R S source list. The information consists of the enforced delivery of well-organized data contained in federal and state tax forms collected, assembled, and submitted by slave labor provided by taxpayers and employers. Furthermore, the number of such forms submitted by the i r S is a useful indicator of public consent, an important factor in strategic decision making. Other data sources are given in the short list of inputs right now. That's a fair point. What I would like, let's, let's talk about this for a second. We realized one thing with target, And Bud Light, there is power in your money. If you decide that you're no longer going to give your money to Bud Light, when you draw that line, right, and you say, I'm no longer going to accept this reality that you are enforcing upon me via your advertising, right? Everybody feels powerless when it comes to our government. Everybody feels like, oh, there's nothing we can do about these elections. Oh, there's nothing we can do about this man falling asleep against other while talking with other presidents, right? There's nothing we can do. There's nothing we can do. Well, what can I do? I'm just a person, right? It's like, okay, yes, as an individual, if you boycott Bud Light, the repercussions to Bud Light are very low, and the likelihood that something's gonna change is also very low. But in mass, if we boycott the monetary systems of our government in mass, They will be forced to change, right? We don't need massive riots in the streets. It literally just takes you not actively filing these forms and giving them a large portion of your money. Like most people don't know when you sign up for your taxes through your W two that you can. Put exemptions, self exemptions, and then you just pay at the end of the year. Right? You don't have to have them take it out of every single paycheck. Right? It's like, if it gets to that point, which again, I hope it doesn't, and I hope our government just completely, but we keep sending billions upon billions upon billions of dollars over to Ukraine for no reason, right? So we saw the effects of this with Bud Light at one point or another. We may see the effects of this type of boycotting on a federal, national level through taxes. None of our founding fathers had the belief that we should be paying four D percent of your money to the government for them to send it away to their friends for quid pro quo relationships into Ukraine for a war that we're not even a part of. None of them, right? And now they even outline it here. A silent s a silent weapon system operates upon data obtained from docile, public by legal, not always lawful force. Much information is made available to silent weapons systems programmers through the I R Ss. On top of that, the number of forms submitted is an indicator of compliance, is a public temperature gauge. Are we still okay? By sending $50 billion to Ukraine, having a complete criminal in, in a position of the presidency, and also having our f b I be weaponized against everybody that that's potentially its enemies. Well, they're still paying us, so as long as they keep paying us, we might as well keep doing it right? It's like, so they actually utilized and leveraged this as a consent coefficient. That's what they call it here. Um, other data sources are given in the short list of inputs, consent coefficients, numerical feedback indicating victory status. Psychological basis when the government is able to collect tax and seize private property without just compensation, it is an indication that the public is ripe for surrender and is consenting to enslavement and legal encroachment. This says a good and easy quantified indicator of harvest time is the number of public citizens who pay income tax despite an obvious lack of reciprocal or honest service from the government. I will repeat that for you. I the consent coefficient. A good and easily quantified indicator of harvest time is the number of public citizens who pay income tax. Despite an obvious lack of reciprocal or honest service from the government, and that is exactly what we have right now. We have no re if if somebody from the government came to you and like was a salesperson and decided, Hey, I'm gonna, I'm gonna charge you an annual fee. Okay, that's fine. I'll, I'll, well, tell me what your service is. Well, I'm going to erode the, the sanctity of marriage. I'm going to disintegrate the public education for your children. I'm going to inflate the value of your money. I'm going to purposefully release viruses so that my friends over there in the pharmaceutical industry can profit off of your death. I'm going to elect incompetent individuals to represent you on a world stage. I'm going to send your sons and your daughters to war to die at the drop of a hat for whatever right reason I see as profitable. And all I need in exchange for all of those amazing things is 40 to 60% of your income. Would you sign up for that? Would you pay that annual fee? I don't think very many people would. I don't. I just don't see it. I don't, I, I cannot see the value right now of this right now. I'm not saying go, don't go pay your taxes. 'cause Lord knows, right? That's the last thing we need in our lives, getting audited and all of that that comes with that. But what I would say is if enough people did it at enough times together in unison with a set plan and actionable goal of asks. From the government. That is true power, right? Not just not paying it for not paying it, but if there was a set group of people, a large group percentage of the people who decided, we are not going to continue funding this government organization until these things are done. Maybe we even put it in escrow, right? Well, we have this money in an escrow account for U I R S, we have it set aside, but guess what? You're not getting 50% of your tax revenue until we get somebody impeached who's a criminal at the current head of our country, maybe get some competent people to actually be in the presidential race. Maybe stop sending money and weapons of mass destruction from our income to kill Russians and Ukrainians in a war that means nothing to us. Maybe stop poisoning our children through food systems and poisoning their intellect through educational systems. Maybe don't take any funding from BlackRock. Maybe don't take any funding from Vanguard. Right? Maybe, maybe we disintegrate those co, those large wealth management organizations through monopoly laws, right? Maybe we do that until we can trace back where this funding's coming from. May maybe you're not allowed to invest while you're in a position of power. What are our asks? What? What is the, what is the list of things that we ask for? Set aside the portion of money into an escrow account. Tell 'em it's right here for you as soon as you do this, this, this, and this. How quickly do you think if 50% of the country jumped on board with that, do you think that they would change their ways? Hmm. Interesting question. Especially when they're literally using it as a qualified indicator of harvest time according to this document. Now, here's the amplified energy sources. Okay? It says, the next step in the process of designing an economic amplifier is discovering the energy sources. The energy sources, which support any primitive economic system are, of course, a supply of raw materials and the consent of the people to labor, and consequently assume a certain rank, position, level, or class in the social structure to provide labor at various levels in the pecking order. Okay, so the next step in the process is designing an economic amplifier in discovering the energy sources. They do that by getting your consent to work and accept your claim in life, right? Accepting your certain rank, position, level, or class. Each class. In guaranteeing its own level of income, controls the class immediately below it hence preserves the class structure. This provides stability and security, but also government from the top. As time goes on. And communication and education improve. The lower class elements of social labor structure become knowledgeable and envious of the good things that the upper class members have. They also begin to attain knowledge of energy systems and the ability to enforce their rise through the class structure. This threatens the sovereignty of the elite. It says, if this rise of the lower class can be postponed long enough, the elite can achieve energy dominance. Labor by consent no longer will hold a position of an essential energy source. Right? And that makes sense, especially when we're getting into automation, right? If, if they can hold off the lower class long enough, the labor class, the class of of lower class individuals making minimum wage, they can eventually bring in automation systems of robots to eliminate the need altogether for that class of people, right? If they can postpone that long enough, the elite can achieve energy, dominance and labor by consent no longer will hold a position of an essential energy source. Until such energy dominance is absolutely established, the consent of people to labor and let others handle their affairs must be taken into consideration. And maybe that's why we're seeing this amplification right now of authoritarianism, right? They don't need you anymore. They'll need to take you into consideration. Since failure to do so could cause the people to interfere in the final transfer of energy sources to the control of the elite. It says it is essential to recognize that at this time, public consent is still an essential key to the release of energy in the process of economic amplification. Therefore, consent as an energy release mechanism will now be considered for now until they don't need you. Because they have robots five to 10 years from now and now they don't need your consent. The walls come down, the barbed wire goes up. They don't need you. That's terrifying 'cause that's where we're going very, very quickly. This perfectly outlines how quickly they're going to completely obliterate the lower class citizens, the labor workers from society. They put 'em on a universal BA basic income of $2,000 a month. Maybe they pay for a food bank down the road where everything becomes socialized. They don't need your consent because they don't need you to build the things that they need to have things built. Now it says logistics. The successful application of a strategy requires a careful study of inputs, outputs, the strategy, connecting the inputs and the outputs, and the available energy sources to fuel the strategy. This is called logistics. A logistical problem is studied at the elementary level first, and then levels of greater complexity are studied as a synthesis of elementary factors. This means that given a system that a given system is analyzed, broken down into the subsystems, and these in turn are analyzed until by this process one arrives at the logistical atom, the individual. This is where the process of synthesis properly begins at the time of birth of the individual. Now, this to me is where this gets the most scary. Okay? These next few pages are absolutely terrifying. Okay. The rest of this gets crazier and crazier and crazier. Okay, so it took us a minute, a little bit of technicality to get to this point, but this gets dark, very, very dark. Okay, so here we go. The artificial womb. From time, from the time a person leaves its mother's womb, it's every effort is directed towards building, maintaining, and withdrawing into artificial wombs, various sorts of substitute protective devices or shells. The objective of these artificial wombs is to provide a stable environment for both stable and unstable activity, to provide a shelter for the evolutionary processes of growth and maturity, survival to provide security of freedom. And to provide defensive protection for offensive activity. This is equally true of both the general public and the elite. However, there is the definite difference in the way each of the classes goes about the solution of problems, the political structure of a nation dependency. The primary reason why the individual citizens of a country create a political structure is a subconscious wish or desire to perpetuate their own dependency relationship of childhood. Simply put, they want a human God to eliminate all risk from their life. Pat them on the head, kiss their bruises, put a chicken on every dinner table, close their bodies, tuck them into bed at night, and tell them that everything will be all right when you wake up in the morning. This public demand is incredible, so the human God, the politician. You hear that? So the human God, the politician meets in credibility with, in credibility, by promising the world and delivering nothing. So who is the bigger liar? The public or the godfather? This public behavior is surrendered, born of fear, laziness, and expediency. It is the basis of the welfare state as a strategic weapon useful against a disgusting public. It says so let's break that down. They're saying that you come from a mommy and a daddy, and you want government to be your mommy and your daddy to house you, to give you food, to make you feel stable, to protect you from the burglars and the robbers so that you don't have to deal with any of that. It's an easy button, right? They want you to eliminate all risk from life, and they say, I. The human God is the politician in this very government document. How terrifying is that? That's how they look at themselves, meets in credibility with, in credibility, by promising the world and delivering nothing. How many times have we seen the president, every single presidential race, ever, every debate, every, every a hundred. What is it? A hundred first, 180 days. I'm gonna do these things almost every time. They do none of it, right? That includes Trump, that includes Clinton, that includes the Bushes, that includes Joe Biden, that includes every single president in history, promises the world, and delivers on nothing, because what you want is so ridiculous they say. It's not feasible for a politician, for a government to make you feel safe to feed everybody, to house, everybody, to make there be no, uh, war in the world, to tuck you in at bed at night and tell you that everything's gonna be all right. Right? It's not doable. So it says, most people want to be able to subdue and or kill other human beings, which disturb their daily lives, but they do not want to have to cope with the moral and religious issues, which such an overt act on their part might raise. Therefore, they assign the dirty work to others, including their own children, so as to keep the blood off their hands, they rave about the humane treatment of animals, and then sit down to a delicious burger. From a whitewash slaughterhouse down the street and out of sight, but even more hypocritical, they pay taxes to finance a professional association of hitmen, collectively called politicians, and then complain about corruption in government. Wow. Now it says responsibility again. Most people want to be free to do the things to explore, but they're afraid to fail. The fear of failure is manifested in the irresponsibility and especially in delegating those personal responsibilities to others. Where success is uncertain or carries possible, or created liabilities, which the person is not prepared to accept. They want authority, root word, author. They want authority. Authority, but they will not accept responsibility or liability. So they hire politicians to face reality for them, right? They want authority, but they will not accept responsibility or liability. So they hire politicians to face reality for them, right? So they're framing the idea of politics. They're framing the idea of the politician they're calling the politician, the godfather, the man who's supposed to tuck you in a bed, tuck you in a bed to give you food, to be the end all, be all of your social responsibility. And they say that you hire politicians to face this reality for you, right? So here's the summary. The people hire politicians so that the people can obtain security without managing it. Obtain action without thinking about it. Inflict theft, injury, and death upon others without having to contemplate either life or death. Avoid responsibility for their intentions. Obtain the benefits of reality and science without exerting themselves in the discipline of facing or learning either. They give politicians the power to create and manage a war machine by providing for the survival of the nation or the womb, prevent encroachment of anything upon the nation or the womb, destroy the enemy who threatens the nation slash womb and destroy those citizens of their own country, who then who do not conform for the stake of or for the sake of stability of the nation or the womb politicians. It says, hold quasi-military jobs, the lowest being the police, which are soldiers, the attorneys and CPAs next who are spies and saboteurs, the judges who shout orders and run the closed union military shop for whatever the market will bear. The generals are industrialists. The presidential level of Commander in Chiefs is shared by the international by bankers. So they outline the hierarchy perfectly right? The presidential level commander in chief is shared by international bankers, not by politicians. The generals are the industrialists. The judges are the ones who shout orders. The CPAs are the spies, and the cops are the soldiers. The people know now that they have created this farce and financed it with their own taxes, which is their consent, but they would rather knuckle under then be a hypocrite. Thus, a nation becomes divided into two very distinct parts. A docile sub nation, the great silent majority in the political sub nation. The political sub nation remains unattached or remains attached to the docile sub nation, tolerates it and leaches its substance until it grows strong enough to detach itself and then devour its parent. Interesting. So I'm gonna read that again 'cause I don't quite understand that. A nation becomes divided into two very distinct parts, right? A conforming sub nation, right? The, the vast majority of people, right? Probably 95% of people who is the silent majority and a political sub nation, the political sub nation, right? The 5% maybe remains attached to the docile silent majority. They tolerate it and then they leach its substance until it grows strong enough. To detach itself and then devour its parent. Hmm. The people know that they have created this farce and financed it with their own taxes or consent, but they would rather knuckle under than be a the hypocrite. Hmm. In order to make meaningful, computerized economic decisions about war, the primary economic flywheel, right. War is the primary economic flywheel. It is necessary to assign concrete, logistical values to each element of the war structure, personnel, and material alike. Now we're gonna get into war and how the elites leverage war for profit and how they do it through drafts, through the dissection of the the family. I. Right, specifically within roles about the mother and the father. So here it goes. It says the draft, right? So let's, let's start off at the beginning. In order to make meaningful computerized economic decisions about war, the primary economic flywheel, it is necessary to assign concrete, logistical values to each element of the war structure, personnel, and material alike. This process begins with a clear, candid description of the subsystems of such a structure. The draft few efforts of human behavior modification are more remarkable or more effective than that of the socio military institution known as the draft. A primary purpose of a draft or other such institution is to instill by intimidation in the young males of a society, the uncritical conviction. The government is omnipotent. He is soon enough, taught that a prayer is slow to reverse what a bullet can do in an instant. Thus, a man is trained in a religious environment for 18 years of his life. A man trained in a religious environment for 18 years of his life can by this instrument of the government be broken down, purged of his fantasies and delusions in a matter of mere months. Once that conviction is instilled, all else becomes easy to instill. Hmm. So the conviction of faith, the conviction of faith in a religious setting specifically can be encroached upon through war, right? By watching a bullet kill your friend right next to you, right? It's very hard to believe in God when you have these atrocious acts happening all around you. I. Which seemingly are the acts of the devil, not of the Lord. Right. Even more interesting is this process, right? So, but it's saying the, the protector of this, the, the veil that that can be put over, that can protect you from this type of thing that is being encroached upon through war by man, right? Giving you the idea that the government is omnipotent, not God, right? He has soon taught that a prayer is slow to reverse what a bullet can do in an instant. Thus, a man trained in a religious environment for 18 years of his life can by this instrument of the government be broken down, purged of his fantasies and delusions in the matter of months. Once that conviction is instilled in him, everything else becomes easy to instill. Even more interesting is the process by which a young man's parents who purportedly love him can be induced to send him off to war, to his death. Although the scope of this work will now not only. Although the scope of this work will not only allow this matter to be expanded in full detail, nevertheless, a course overview will be possible and conserve to reveal those factors which must be included in some numerical form in a computer analysis of social and more systems. So it's saying that you have to through, even the parents can be broken down into data sets. They say they love their child, but they're gonna send him to go what? Get into a firefight. Go, go work for the national drug cartel right to to, to fight for something that we don't even understand or believe in. It says we begin with a tentative definition of the draft. The draft selective service is an institution of compulsory collective sacrifice and slavery devised by the middle aged and elderly for the purpose of pressing the young into doing the public dirty work. It further serves to make the youth as guilty as the elders, thus making criticisms of the elders by the youth youth, less likely generational stabilizers. It is marketed and sold to the public under the label of patriotic national service. So the old rich guys send the young poor guys to war. That way the young poor guys become complicit in the actions of these old white dudes, these old bankers, these old men who are making decisions for profitability. They find the very people who could take them down through action, give them a monthly stipend and make them complicit in their acts of war that way. Now, you can't say anything to me young man, 'cause you are the one who pulled the trigger. I just paid you to do it. Once a candid economic definition of the draft is achieved, that definition is used to outline the boundaries of a structure called a human value system, which is in turn translated into the terms of game theory. The value of such a slave laborer is given in a table of human values, a table broken down into ca, categories of intellect, experience, post-service, job demand, post-service, job demand, et cetera. Some of these categories are ordinary and can be tentatively evaluated in terms of the value of certain jobs for which a known fee exists. Some jobs are harder to value because of their, they're unique to the demands of social subversion. For an extreme example, the value of a mother's instruction to her daughter causing that daughter to put certain behavioral demands upon a future husband 10 or 15 years, hence, thus, by suppressing his resistance to a perversion of a government. I. Making it easier for a banking cartel to buy the state of New York in say 20 years. Hmm. Some jobs are harder of the value. Let's reread that. Some jobs are harder of the value because they have have unique demands of social subversion. For an extreme example, the value of a mother's instruction to her daughter. Right. So putting a value on teaching that mother that she should be telling her daughter this. This idea then causing the daughter to put these demands on the husband 10 to 15 years down the road, then suppressing his resistance to the government, making it easier for a banking cartel to buy the state of New York in 20 years. So when it started at the mother, it trickled down to the daughter and she enforced those beliefs on her husband, which made it easier for them to do what they wanted to do 20 years down the road. Right. Makes sense. Such a problem leans heavily upon the observations and data of wartime espionage and many times of psychological testing. But crude mathematic models, algorithms can be devised if not to predict, at least to pre determinate these events and with maximum certainty. What does not exist by natural cooperation is thus enhanced by calculated compulsion. Human beings are machines levers, which may be grasped and turned, and there is little real difference between automating a society and automating a sho

One way that growers can farm sustainably for the future is through vineyard fleet management. Marc Di Pietra, Regional Service Maintenance Manager for Treasury Americas, a subsidiary of global wine company Treasury Wine Estates, is doing just that by exploring alternative fuel sources and automation. Electric and hybrid vehicles reduce carbon emissions and lower the cost of fuel. The use of remote-operated equipment improves safety for operators, upscales the workforce, improves efficiencies, and has the potential to passively gather valuable data. The challenge is the existing infrastructure needed to support these tools. Learn what equipment Marc and his team are trialing as they work towards a goal to use 100% renewable energy.

He's Regional Service Maintenance Manager for Treasury America's part of Treasury Wine Estates. And thanks for being on the podcast. Marc Di Pietra 0:09 Thank you, Craig, I really appreciate the opportunity to talk with you today, especially about some of the things we're working on. We're really excited, quick background on me. I joined Treasury wWine Estates in mid 2018, then transitioned into vineyard operations around 2019. And then since then, I've been focused on our equipment, sleep management in the vineyard with an eye on what farming of the future looks like. Craig Macmillan 0:28 Farming of the future. That's a really interesting topic and a really big question, what that is going to look like, what kinds of things are you doing? What kinds of things do you do as part of this position as part of this project? Marc Di Pietra 0:40 It's a great question, because every day it changes, right. But two of the biggest areas of opportunities that we see, we see alternative fuel types, fully electric, hybrid hydrogen or alternative fuel sources, and then also automation or remote operated mechanization. And so for alternative fuels, two of the major points here are obviously the rising cost of fuel, and then also how to lower our carbon emissions. So Treasury as a whole and supportive lowering emissions, we've been implemented two key goals in our journey. And that starts with a target of 100% renewable energy by 2024. That's the first step. And then the second step of that is net zero for scopes, one and two by 2030. So pretty big, lofty goals there. But that's why we're starting that path now. Craig Macmillan 1:24 So Marc, can you kind of explain what scope one and scope two are in the world of carbon accounting? Marc Di Pietra 1:30 Yeah, sure. So scope. One, emissions are direct greenhouse gas emissions that occur from sources controlled or owned by an organization. So an example like fuel combustion, boiler, furnace vehicles, things like that. Scope, two emissions, or indirect greenhouse gas emissions through the purchase of electricity, Steam, heat, or cooling. And then lastly, scope three, which is much bigger than that as activities from assets not owned or controlled by the organization, but indirectly affected value, like shipping supply chain, gas bottles, things like that. Craig Macmillan 2:00 Yeah. And there's a lot of folks that are getting interested in that part of my job with Niner Wine Estates is who I work for. We're trying to figure out what's the carbon footprint of the glass we use, and many other people are looking at that same thing. Because when you stop and think about it, you go, Hey, wait a second, this came from France. And it weighs X, huh. You know, and so it's that kind of scope three stuff is really interesting to a lot of people. Marc Di Pietra 2:23 Treasury on the background has done a lot of work on that to understand that big picture. Craig Macmillan 2:26 And we have an episode that mentions that. Marc Di Pietra 2:28 And the second big piece, which I hadn't hinted on was automation, also a key initiative because it allows us to help improve like our operator safety, upscale our existing workforce while improving efficiencies in the field. There's also an added bonus, that with this type of technology, we'll have the ability to gather passive data, which right now, it's still relatively new. But as we continue to grow and develop, we can process that data to make smarter decisions, you would ask some of the things that we're working on. So here in the US, we're working with GUSS remote operated spray systems, we've got Agtonomy, which is electric and remotely operated alternative to the tractor that you're familiar with. We've got two atari and Polaris electric, RTVs, Robotics Plus systems, which is both hybrid and remote operating. And we're also currently waiting for order of Monarch tractors that should be here in the next couple of weeks. Our international teams, they're also using some different equipment as well, such as vide bots or farm, Kelby, the yields and a few others. Craig Macmillan 3:25 Talk to me about these alternate fuel things. I think this is a really interesting idea. And I haven't really followed it, tell someone who's never heard of this kind of thing, how this works? Marc Di Pietra 3:35 Well, the easiest way to think about as you're driving up and down the road, and you see a gas station, and you see those three different price points, for 87 89, and 91. And that's all pretty basic, but then you add in the cost of diesel on top of that there are other ways to fuel equipment as well. So we have a fully electric like you're familiar with your Tesla's or your Chevy bolts, but there's also hybrid, which you're familiar with to it has been doing this for a long time. And then there's also other types of fuel, like methane and hydrogen that are out there as well. The real big challenge that we're seeing, at least on our end, is the infrastructure to support all of these different growing ideas. That's why we're currently trying both electric and the hybrid options. Craig Macmillan 4:14 Do you think that there is a future for things like methane, hydrogen, those ideas have kind of come and gone? And I think a lot of it, like you said, is the infrastructure part? Marc Di Pietra 4:21 You know, it's a great question, because I don't have all the answers. But I do know that different companies are trying things to capture, especially in farming, so where you have dairy farms that can collect the methane, you've got the fermentation process, which allows you to capture different chemicals across the way. So I think there is a place for it depending on where you're at. And then again, it goes back to how you can capture and store that safely. Craig Macmillan 4:45 So let's go back to electric and hybrid. You mentioned a whole range of different vehicles that could run on electric and hybrid. Can you tell me a little bit about is it a hybrid tractors or strictly electric tractors? These are the things that need more house horsepower, and they're a little bit big You're What's that landscape looking like right now? That's very exciting for a lot of us. Marc Di Pietra 5:04 Yeah. And it's a great question because again, that's those are all the things that we're asking ourselves. The reason we're so spread out is because we're in the early adoption phase, and Treasury has allowed us to be that. So we're trying different pieces of the puzzle to see what works best for us. The reason we've tried a fully electric tractor is because there are currently two or three options out there that we feel really comfortable with demoing in our fields, it's not going to take the place of what we're currently doing. But it allows us to step into our farming practices and see if it is truly a viable option. Hybrid is a little bit more of that in between step, it's, you know, it's one step towards that end goal of zero emissions, because it is more efficient. You know, you get the benefits of that. But also, it doesn't completely Have you dependent on the grid, the electric grid or infrastructure of what's happening around you. You talked about going into larger formats, and there is a concern about battery life there. And that we know that that technology is changing rapidly. So we are starting with a couple see how it evolves, and then we can make an informed decision based on that. Craig Macmillan 6:06 Stay with tractors are these vehicles that are coming to you from manufacturers ready to go? Are you making modifications yourself? Are you taking with a base unit making modifications to something that's already existing? What kind of involvement does it take on your part to work with this technology at this point? Marc Di Pietra 6:21 Depending on the program that we're using, so let's say on our for example, that comes to us more or less ready to use. So they have tools that will connect to your standard three point. So there's not much modification or or there but another company, Agtonomy that we're working with, we're on the ground level with them while they're still developing. So it gives us an opportunity to give our feedback of what we're looking for. So we're seeing a lot of rapid change quickly that will help support our needs. Craig Macmillan 6:46 Will that tractor still be based on a three point hitch? Marc Di Pietra 6:49 It will have a front mounted tool bar on the front? And we're talking to them about getting front and rear mounted tools? Craig Macmillan 6:56 What kind of horsepower? Are we talking here? Are we are we comparable to a regular track layer? Are we talking to a regular four wheel drive depends on the size, but are we in the same range? Marc Di Pietra 7:06 That's the goal, you know, obviously Electric is more efficient than your standard diesel motor. So when you get a diesel motor that says they're pushing 100 horsepower, we believe that the electric range tractor that's stating a range between 45 to 85 horsepower is comparable to that 95 to 100 horsepower tractor. Now again, there's still a lot of work going on to validate that, but we have seen improved efficiencies and we think that will be if not, they're close to it. Craig Macmillan 7:34 And getting really technical. What is the power supply? Like for these? Are you having to bring in extra electrical service above what you already have? Because a lot of shops don't have a 480? For instance, amperage? What kind of amperage do you need? It sounds like a totally new kind of thing. Marc Di Pietra 7:50 Yeah, so for the two that I've mentioned, for us, we are using both 60 amp circuit with a 48 amp charger capability, as well as some 100 amp circuits that will support an 80 amp charger. So we're not using anything that is above and beyond like we would see with a Tesla quick charger. And in both of those cases, though, with the 40 and 80 amp chargers, we're still looking at a charge time of overnight, four to six hours. Craig Macmillan 8:15 So that's very practical. Really. That could work. Marc Di Pietra 8:17 Yeah. And because Treasury has several ranches, we are looking at it holistically, excuse me, we're implementing different charging systems on different sites as well to understand the draw on the need of those to see how efficient they are affected they are on our site. Craig Macmillan 8:32 Is there any real change for the tractor operators? Are there new things they need to learn how to do or is it kind of based on what they've been doing is, Marc Di Pietra 8:39 There is a big change for the operator because they need to understand that it's not sit in the seat, turn on the key and hit the gas pedal. It's understanding what the screen is telling you when you turn on the tractor, where you're at power wise. So there's some nuances, but ultimately, it still runs and drives like a tractor that you're familiar with. It's just like learning a new a new cellphone, for example, Android versus iPhone. Craig Macmillan 9:02 Yeah, I just got a new phone and I'm struggling. I have to admit. You also had mentioned passive data collection, which I'm very interested in. I've been tracking this concept for quite a few years now. What kinds of data are you interested in collecting? And how's it been going so far? Marc Di Pietra 9:15 We have been talking to several different companies that offer passive data. But our goal is to try to implement it on the platforms we're currently working with. I referenced the Agtonomy a lot, because again, our input is going into their development quite a bit. They're looking to add sensors to their machines to gather that data that we're looking for. I would say we're still in the very, very beginning stages of that. Some of the benefits of using this passive data is the machine will have more than two sets of eyes on like our current tractor and operator with that we can gather information around density, disease cluster counts, as well as monitoring the sensors that are out in the field such as irrigation or moisture. And just about anything else you can think of that a sensor can gather for you. Craig Macmillan 10:00 And you're in early trials with it sounds like you actually started collecting data. I was a little confused. Marc Di Pietra 10:07 Oh, excuse me. No, we haven't there are companies out there that we spoken with. But again, we're trying to rely on our partnerships and use their platform. Again, we're trying to do a lot of things on one machine to see what's valuable to us long term. Yeah. Craig Macmillan 10:21 And you had mentioned remotely operated vehicles. Is that correct? Yes, sir. Tell me about that. I just think that is so cool. Autonomous machines. Marc Di Pietra 10:29 Thinking about remote operated, there's several factors involved. First and foremost, it's important to me and our team is the safety of our operators. Currently, we've got spray teams that are working, you know, in the middle of the night, they're working back and forth, up and down each row. So what this allows the operator to do is get back outside of the tractor, manage, ideally, multiple machines from one computer. So obviously, efficiency gains, but you're getting that operator out of harm's way out of the way of the equipment as well as out of any chemicals you might be spraying along the way. Craig Macmillan 10:58 Are there elements of this that are controlled by computer or artificial intelligence, what I'm thinking of is there's been some work by John Deere, in particular, with GPS guided tractors in the Midwest, where you set a path and it will go wherever you tell it to go little trickier when you have a row on either side, especially if it's a seven foot row or something like that. How hard is it for an operator to control this thing? Marc Di Pietra 11:23 Actually, from my experience, so far, controlling it with through a laptop computer, controlling not one machine, but multiple machines seems to be quite easy, because there are so many sensors on the platform that will allow it to tell you not only where it needs to go to go from, say, your barn or your shed to where it's starting a job for the day. But while it's going through the row, it's looking for any obstructions that might be in the way whether that's a tumbleweed. Coyote, a person, you know, all of those things for safety, but it also gathers all of that data. And it also knows where all the other machines are as well. And the operator is sitting behind a laptop, making sure that each path because they can see multiple machines on one screen, you know, through data points on a map, it can say, hey, that machine is going well. It's has 25% solution left, and it's tank. So we need to stop at at this point. And all the machines are talking to each other. So there's awareness about what's happening around it as well. Craig Macmillan 12:17 That's amazing. That's amazing. How far down the path are you with this? Marc Di Pietra 12:20 Well, I mean, there's two commercial products available now that we will have in our vineyards. Currently, we have the GUSS spray system. They've started in nuts in the Central Valley. But now they've they have actively sprayed over 1 million acres. And we have the first two vineyard sprayers in California that we will have started spraying with I guess in the next, like two weeks or so. Craig Macmillan 12:41 Yeah, exactly. Yeah, here we are. It's time Yeah, exactly. Marc Di Pietra 12:45 It came fast. Yeah. Craig Macmillan 12:47 From a cultural standpoint or a management standpoint, I just am curious. What kind of terrain are we talking about? Are we talking about really steep slopes, we talked about flatter ground, we talked about narrow rows. Treasury has properties all over the place, I'm sure there's a variety of topography that you're having to work with. Marc Di Pietra 13:01 Yeah, out of the gate, we're starting at a ranch that is relatively flat, it's got long half mile rows. So it'll be nice and efficient for the machine to go up and down back and forth all day long. But the goal is ultimately to take it into the foothills where we're talking up to 10 to 15 degrees of incline that we should not see any problems. And that's with, you know, the equipment that we know we have worked Agtonomy for example, I've seen their machine, go up a degree a slope of about 25 to 30 degrees, no problem. Craig Macmillan 13:25 We're talking about the machinery. Now let's talk about what the machines are doing. So we've talked about spraying, which is absolutely amazing. Are we using this for under vine cultivation? Are we using this for mowing or using this for tilling what kinds of things you're able to do with these machines? Marc Di Pietra 13:40 One of the biggest benefits is the underlying cultivation piece, which will allow us to reduce the chemicals that we use in spraying specifically around our herbicide use. We've seen the ability with this autonomous equipment or remotely operated equipment to use undermine tillers and we could do multiple passes with that volt we'd knives, sunflower cultivators, things like that. We can also do a mount where we have a mower on the front and cultivator on the back, that's been a huge benefit and time savings for us as well. Craig Macmillan 14:08 What are you seeing at this point? Or what are you thinking about? And I know that a lot of things you haven't really kind of gotten into yet, but I know you're looking forward in thinking about this, what is this going to look like from a maintenance standpoint, and also from an employee training, regardless of the position because we're going from a period of having a diesel mechanic, someone who understands how hydraulics work basic things around having vendors who can come out and replace a tire and all that kind of stuff. It sounds like there's going to be some very, very different kinds of maintenance and repair issues here. And we already mentioned drivers, it sounds like there's going to be some very different set of skills that folks are going to have to have to make these systems work. What's that wood in your imagination? What that's looking like right now? Marc Di Pietra 14:44 Yeah, I think one of the greatest things is the opportunity to upskill our existing workforce. I mean, honestly, it's been really great to see the initial hesitation from our guys when they see this stuff rolled out on the ranch, but then ultimately, once they get their hands on it, how quickly they've adapted to it. And that's been the great Interesting to see because you know, it's getting harder and harder to get employees for the vineyard, it's they're just not available to us, which I'm sure everybody's experienced. So this has really been a great opportunity to see these guys get excited about something new, and upskill them. From a maintenance standpoint, believe it or not, it's actually been much easier than we've anticipated. There's much less regular preventative maintenance needed. So we're not doing oil changes every 500 hours, because electric components require less, they're all sealed. So there's no going into there and changing fluids and things like that. Also, the software on these systems are also capable identifying similar like your car with like a check engine light comes on the system identifies those issues and points us to to those repairs much faster. Now that said, as we evolve, I do see the need to have someone on the team who has a solid understanding of the computer systems and how to address these types of issues outside of our current model, but we also know like we've seen with the car manufacturers, they're training folks up for that. And we're, I've already reached out to a couple of the local, I wouldn't say local, but the the training like UTIs and the wild Tech's of the world to see what type of implementation they haven't talked with them about their job boards. So any young folks coming out of those programs might be looking for something interesting. Craig Macmillan 16:14 You guys are doing so much stuff. This is amazing. You got a lot going on. Marc, is there any one thing though, that you're really excited about that you're really, really optimistic about at this point? Marc Di Pietra 16:24 I would say from a process standpoint, like I said, it's really about the operator safety, you know, getting these guys out from behind the tractor in the middle of the night, the efficiency that it brings the reduction of chemicals, like that's all the process stuff that I'm excited about. You know, there are several cool companies out there that we're working with, you know, these guys have great ideas and great minds. And we're all thinking forward. I think that's been one thing that I've really enjoyed is seeing people not worrying about just today. But looking forward. Craig Macmillan 16:52 And when you look into that crystal ball, what kinds of things do you see coming down the line, not things that you're able to trial now, but things that have potential on the future? There's a lot of work being done, like the precision vineyard project with Cornell and Carnegie Mellon and folks like that, what do you see out there on the horizon? It's, you know, a year ago with science fiction, hint now is starting to look like it could actually happen. Marc Di Pietra 17:10 Yeah, I think as the autonomous piece gets smarter and better, that's going to be a huge game. And again, I go back to one operator being able to control multiple machines. So that creates efficiency. Again, it goes back to operator safety. For me, it reduces those long days, it reduces middle of the night work for those long hours, and the monotony and the safety of that individual operator, I also really liked the idea of passive data stuff that we've not been able to easily get before and then be able to make smart decisions in the field. If you've got a spot that is say disease prone or not producing as strong as other areas in the vineyard, we'll be able to capture that data and make smart decisions go forward to improve that. Craig Macmillan 17:48 Measure, to manage, right, get to get the data to make good decisions. Marc Di Pietra 17:52 And I think that's going to be the biggest opportunity is how do we manage all of that data? That's what I'm really curious about. And that's, that's one thing that I would really like to figure out how to unlock in the future, because we can talk about it. But there's nothing there that can manage multiple systems, multiple points of input. And then whether that's a comparison of like for like mechanical versus the, you know, the future, or whatever that might be, there's so much that we just don't know how to do yet. Craig Macmillan 18:18 This is a huge area. But is there one thing that you would advise growers are one thing that you would say to growers around automation, hybrid electric, passive data collection, the future basically the future of this kind of mechanization in this kind of electronic world that we're moving into? Is there one piece of advice or one thing you'd one message you'd like growers to know? Marc Di Pietra 18:37 I think everybody needs to be curious. It's all something that we need to be thinking about, talking about and to help ourselves in the industry and our planet. I mean, there's a quote that I always think of when I talk about this stuff as a rising tide lifts all boats, you know, everybody wants to keep their secret to keep their grapes or their strawberries the best, I understand that. But this technology, the way it's going, you know, labor and employee safety, it's a huge concern for everybody. And I think the more we're talking, the more we're asking questions. And you know, you brought up John Deere. I mean, they're looking into it. Now New Holland is looking into it now. And this is all things started by small people having these ideas, and it's all rolled into bigger things. I encourage everybody, just be curious and talk about it. Craig Macmillan 19:17 This is great advice. And I think that that's important for our industry. And one of the things I've found over time grape growers are curious and grape growers are willing to experiment within limits and try different things. And I hope that no matter who you are out there, that you will heed Marc's advice and be creative and be optimistic and be open minded. Where can people find out more about you and the things that you're doing? Marc Di Pietra 19:40 I mean, feel free to reach out to me, obviously, through LinkedIn, feel free to, you know, share my email, if that's an option. Again, I'd like to talk to anybody who's doing something or ask questions. Craig Macmillan 19:49 Absolutely.
