“All this fear about AI taking over the world is bogus! It’s nothing! It’s just fantasy! It won’t happen! But AI will enable some people to control the world! And THAT is something to be scared of!” – Karsten Riise (from this week’s interview.)

Science fiction can involve extra-terrestrial species interacting with human beings, space exploration, time travel, telepathic development, and parallel universes. When the subject turns to the question of artificial intelligence (AI), speculation and advanced research seem to be merging in the imagination of our time.
GPT 4 and the soon to be released GPT 5 will give potential abilities in economics, education, and multiple other areas a massive boost. How might this new tech feature affect international relations? [1]
Would it make a difference if one set of countries had the wheel and the rest did not?
What about the development of the printing press? The airplane? The Rocket? The computer? The internet? The atomic bomb?
No, if one side had a significant gain in this area, they would inevitably dominate their rivals.
But something that must also be factored in is high tech organizations and the elites that finance them have considered the potential for them in also dominating the world beyond the dreams of the democratic past. This amazing system allows, as indicated on last week’s show, super-smart machines (slaves) to finally be accessible and undermine the labour gains during the last couple of centuries.
More than that, they can be more cognizant of our behavior than we are! And with the focus on surveillance, supposedly in our own defence, there may be no more guards on our privacy, or even ultimately our freedom. A techno-dystopia in which we are ensnared, that we cannot expect to out-think, anymore than today’s leading chess grand-master cannot expect to out-maneuver Deep Blue. Minority Report, the motion picture about people being arrested before they could commit a crime based on thorough understandings of individuals and their behavior, may turn out to be more of a documentary at some point.
On this, the sequel to last week’s episode of the Global Research News Hour, we are looking at the direction current forces are already taking with AI and assessing whether our journey will be one of ecstatic new realities or unimaginable horrors. Or both?
In our first half hour, a new guest Karsten Riise, establishes that the new OpenAI product will give the US and edge over Cold War rivals China and Russia, in spite of their looming victories over Ukraine and Taiwan. He also shows just how far plans for the new AI engines are proceeding around the world.
In our second half hour, we have a talk featuring past guest Peter Koenig. His efforts reveal AI in the context of the World Economic Forum’s plans to bring about the Great Reset, and reveals steps in the direction of terminating freedom and humanity in the interests of Elite enterprises.
Karsten Riise is a Master of Science (Econ) from Copenhagen Business School and has a university degree in Spanish Culture and Languages from Copenhagen University. He is the former Senior Vice President Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Mercedes-Benz in Denmark and Sweden. He is a regular contributor to Global Research.
