It's Infecting Everything — Transcript

- 0:00I know it gets said a lot, doom and
- 0:02gloom, bah humbug, everyone's getting
- 0:04stupider, all the idiot beams and [ __ ]
- 0:08potion that's contaminating our our
- 0:11brains, you know, rotting us. Everyone's
- 0:14just dumber and then the conversation
- 0:16around the Flynn effect, which was about
- 0:18the steady increase in IQ and cognitive
- 0:21performance, where what you expect is as
- 0:24generations come, they are increasingly
- 0:27smarter than the previous generation due
- 0:28to having more access to information and
- 0:30learning from the previous generation.
- 0:32But in recent times, there's been a
- 0:33reverse Flynn effect where now there is
- 0:36showing a decline in cognitive
- 0:38measurements with the newest generation
- 0:40compared to the previous one. And a lot
- 0:42of times, this kind of stuff gets
- 0:44misrepresented or exaggerated or just
- 0:46actually [ __ ] pulled out of their ass
- 0:48and is not even based on anything real.
- 0:51But I do think there's a strong
- 0:52arguments with compelling evidence to
- 0:54suggest that kids growing up in the
- 0:56current day and age are not getting
- 0:59access to correct information and are
- 1:01just inundated with gobbledygook. And in
- 1:04a lot of cases, it's not their fault.
- 1:07There are tons of parents now that don't
- 1:10really take an active role in their
- 1:12children's lives and instead put the
- 1:15onus on the internet to raise their kids
- 1:17for them and then are shocked to find
- 1:19them on like brain rot TikTok, even
- 1:21though they just give them unrestricted,
- 1:23unfiltered access to the worldwide web.
- 1:26And even someone like Sam Altman
- 1:28continues to reinforce this path about
- 1:30like, "Well, use AI to raise your kids.
- 1:33Have it make AI-generated podcasts and
- 1:36calendars so you don't have to talk to
- 1:38your kids. You don't have to listen to
- 1:39your kids blabber on about it. I
- 1:40couldn't even imagine raising my baby
- 1:42without AI doing it for me." So,
- 1:45kids are finding access to the internet
- 1:48and just getting fed so much garbage and
- 1:50a lot of it is incorrect, especially
- 1:52because in the current day and age,
- 1:53there is a lot of AI slop and a lot of
- 1:55just completely wrong made up stuff that
- 1:58is solely there to farm clicks and
- 2:00impressions and isn't real. But, it's
- 2:02not even just that. Take a look at this
- 2:04alarming story I just learned about
- 2:07about a school that gave the students an
- 2:11agenda
- 2:12that was just rife with AI-generated
- 2:15mumbo jumbo, none of it being real.
- 2:18>> Well, I bet you've never seen this US
- 2:20map before where Kentucky is Kanveky,
- 2:23Indiana is Inolana, and Tennessee is
- 2:26Tunaseo, and the list goes on. Well,
- 2:28this was in the agenda given to students
- 2:30at a JCPS middle school.
- 2:33When Stacey Morris's son got in the car
- 2:35after the first day of school, he said
- 2:37something she didn't expect.
- 2:39>> Mom, did you know that we live in
- 2:41Vaneky?
- 2:42>> That's just heartbreaking. So, here's a
- 2:44kid who seems excited about learning
- 2:46things, taking it to his mom, only to
- 2:49find out it's a lie. It's not real. So,
- 2:52this school provided their students with
- 2:54an AI-generated agenda pulled straight
- 2:57from the devil's colon here. Just actual
- 3:00hallucinations, none of it being
- 3:02accurate to real information.
- 3:05So, it's not just kids having
- 3:07unrestricted access to the internet
- 3:08that's making them like get fed
- 3:10incorrect [ __ ] and leading them astray,
- 3:13but even the schools now can't even seem
- 3:15to be trusted with providing accurate
- 3:17information or even doing the bare
- 3:18minimum of checking the material that
- 3:20they're giving students.
- 3:22How did this agenda even make it into
- 3:24the students' hands in the first place?
- 3:25Did no one at the school, at the
- 3:28advisory board, at the district,
- 3:29anywhere along the way, the people
- 3:31printing it, no one bothered to actually
- 3:33look at what was being handed out, what
- 3:35was being [ __ ] what like pages were
- 3:37being bound together for these agendas?
- 3:38No one even took a single look, or even
- 3:40worse, maybe they did and didn't care,
- 3:42or even worse than that, maybe they did
- 3:45and didn't recognize it, didn't even
- 3:46realize it. All of it is bad. So, how
- 3:49can we even expect children have a
- 3:51chance at getting smarter and learning
- 3:54when at all angles of their life they
- 3:56are getting fed [ __ ] barnacles. It
- 3:59just actual fish paste here online. It's
- 4:03a bunch of AI generated garbage to farm
- 4:07AdSense on YouTube, TikTok, a lot of the
- 4:09same song and dance, and even school is
- 4:12no longer exempt from this. They are now
- 4:15just force-feeding AI generated garbage
- 4:17to through their agenda. I wonder what
- 4:19the curriculum looks like. Like this was
- 4:21the agenda, but maybe the professor,
- 4:24like the teacher, is also just going by
- 4:27like an AI generated curriculum that is
- 4:29feeding potentially incorrect
- 4:31information there, too, to the children.
- 4:32So, like even what they're being taught
- 4:34in the classrooms here, what they're
- 4:36being handed in the classrooms, isn't
- 4:38accurate information. So, how the [ __ ]
- 4:41do they even stand a chance at, you
- 4:43know, developing normally and like
- 4:47learning and becoming intelligent or
- 4:49anything like that when they are at all
- 4:52angles betrayed and sabotaged?
- 4:55>> And I said, "What are you talking
- 4:56about?" That question sent Morris
- 4:58flipping through her middle schooler at
- 5:00Farnsley's brand new agenda, unveiling
- 5:03all sorts of bizarre errors. The
- 5:06periodic table is just jarbled words.
- 5:10We have new planets called Mark. In this
- 5:12US map, Louisiana is Lu Kong. Alabama is
- 5:16Al Atome. Illinois is Vit Oise. And
- 5:20South Carolina is Sorth Quanto.
- 5:23>> Arizona is Arizone.
- 5:25I mean,
- 5:27Tennessee, there's there's not even the
- 5:29correct letters in Tennessee.
- 5:31>> It's just so baffling. Like there's
- 5:34infinite maps of the US. Like
- 5:37why even AI generate one of those?
- 5:40Periodic table as well, unlimited access
- 5:43to periodic tables in all kinds of fun
- 5:46wacky shapes and sizes with correct
- 5:48information on it, why are you AI
- 5:50generating it? And not only that,
- 5:52they're charging for this, which you're
- 5:53going to learn about in a second. So,
- 5:55you are paying the school for these
- 5:57agendas.
- 5:59What the [ __ ] Like, this is outrageous.
- 6:02This is actually despicable.
- 6:03>> And look at these phases of the moon.
- 6:06Some are not legible. What should be
- 6:08waning crescent says waning crescane.
- 6:12And the periodic table where the names
- 6:14under the elements are gibberish.
- 6:16>> Oh, we have to pay a $10 instructional
- 6:19fee every year
- 6:20in order to get this agenda.
- 6:23So,
- 6:24you're making us pay for something that
- 6:25you used AI for.
- 6:28That's kind of silly in my opinion.
- 6:30>> It's more than silly. I think it's
- 6:32downright diabolical and dangerous. You
- 6:34are paying them
- 6:36and they are giving you incorrect
- 6:38information
- 6:39to your children. You are sending your
- 6:41children to these schools with the trust
- 6:44that they will be taught. They will
- 6:45learn real, accurate things that will
- 6:49help them in life, help them grow and
- 6:51develop. But instead, what you're paying
- 6:54for is AI-generated
- 6:57[ __ ] baloney. We like this is it's
- 7:01just hogwash. And it hurts the kids.
- 7:04This hinders their ability to learn and
- 7:08develop. So, it's it's doing the exact
- 7:10opposite of what going to school is even
- 7:12supposed to do in the first place. It is
- 7:15actively making them dumber. It's just
- 7:17completely unacceptable. Just sending
- 7:19their kids to brain dead academy now, I
- 7:21guess. And it's not the parents' fault.
- 7:23It's not like they were expecting the
- 7:25school to just AI generate the agenda
- 7:27here that they're paying for and
- 7:29teaching their kids out of. It's so
- 7:32[ __ ] up and it's a complete betrayal
- 7:34of trust there that does harm the
- 7:37children. Like, I would now question
- 7:40every single teacher at that school and
- 7:42certainly the higher-ups there, because
- 7:45if they're not catching something as
- 7:46blatantly obvious as these issues that
- 7:48are glaring, they are instantly right in
- 7:51your face incorrect information that
- 7:53you're blasted with in this agenda. And
- 7:55if no one there is catching that, it
- 7:56makes me question their ability to even
- 7:58teach in the first place. I wouldn't
- 8:00trust it. I truly wouldn't. I think this
- 8:02should be a much bigger deal than it's
- 8:04currently being reported as where it's
- 8:06more of like a weird silly thing as
- 8:08opposed to like a genuinely dangerous
- 8:10thing, because I doubt that this is the
- 8:11only school doing it. This is probably
- 8:13just the only one that's been caught so
- 8:14far. So, if kids are now just being, you
- 8:18know, trained through brain rot AI slop
- 8:21in their schools, too, then it's only
- 8:23going to get worse for them. Like they
- 8:25don't even have a chance to
- 8:28grow or learn or become smart at any
- 8:30point. Uh it's just it's sad.
- 8:33>> Morris notified the principal the first
- 8:35day of school.
- 8:36>> Still to this day, she has not responded
- 8:38to that email.
- 8:39>> Yeah, the principal probably doesn't
- 8:40know how to respond to emails on their
- 8:42own, so they got to consult Claude first
- 8:44in order to drum up a response to that
- 8:45one, but any day I'm sure we'll hear
- 8:47from the principal.
- 8:49>> I reached out to JCPS Tuesday night. The
- 8:51district's executive officer of
- 8:53communications said, "I spoke with the
- 8:55school today about inaccuracies in their
- 8:57agenda, and they are communicating with
- 8:59parents about the issue." On Wednesday,
- 9:02nearly a week after Morris told the
- 9:04school, teachers got an email warning of
- 9:06a lot of mistakes between pages 19 and
- 9:0936, ordering them to have students rip
- 9:12the pages out before heading home. Only
- 9:15after kids came home with lighter
- 9:17agendas did the district email parents
- 9:20saying the book contained inaccurate
- 9:22information.
- 9:23>> This is not a misprint.
- 9:24>> Damn right it's not a misprint. That is
- 9:26just an AI-generated agenda. They can't
- 9:29even be bothered to do the bare minimum
- 9:31of putting together an actual agenda
- 9:33with real verified correct information.
- 9:36They instead just have this
- 9:37over-reliance on AI to live their life
- 9:39for them and do their job for them. That
- 9:41is the path things are going and again,
- 9:43not to keep bringing up Voldemort's
- 9:45name, but it's something Sam Altman
- 9:47constantly champions about like letting
- 9:49AI well, soon with the the next
- 9:52generation model
- 9:54watch every single call,
- 9:56read every single email, watch every
- 9:59single thing in your life so that way it
- 10:00can just do it for you down the line
- 10:02offering advice and basically just like
- 10:05running your businesses for you, all of
- 10:06that. People are now just fully bought
- 10:09into that just like hook, line, and
- 10:11sinker. All their eggs are in that
- 10:12basket. We're now even in a position of
- 10:15teaching children, which is a very
- 10:18important thing, you know, ensuring that
- 10:20children are able to have accurate
- 10:22information and learn
- 10:24even that job is now just being
- 10:27delegated to having AI do it for them
- 10:31and it's leading to [ __ ] like this.
- 10:33It's It's just craziness. It's just
- 10:35craziness.
- 10:36>> This is someone did not look at what
- 10:38they were handing out to the students.
- 10:39>> Morris says it's harmed her trust with
- 10:41the school and district.
- 10:43>> And it makes you think, okay, was this
- 10:45the only school in Jefferson County that
- 10:47did this?
- 10:50Or are we the only ones that paid
- 10:51attention?
- 10:53So, I asked JCPS if other schools
- 10:55received these agendas and what company
- 10:57they were from. The district did not
- 10:59respond before this story aired.
- 11:01>> Wow.
- 11:02>> No surprise there that they're going to
- 11:03remain tight-lipped about it and just
- 11:05hope everything will blow over and
- 11:06people forget and then it'll no doubt
- 11:08just continue because
- 11:11they would rather have AI do it than
- 11:14have them actually do their jobs and
- 11:15then they can continue to charge for
- 11:17things that cost like [ __ ] zero
- 11:19dollars to make.
- 11:21Yeehaw.
- 11:22All to the detriment of the children
- 11:24whom they are supposed to be teaching.
- 11:28Wow, indeed.
- 11:30Yuck.
- 11:31So, yeah.
- 11:33I know it gets you after about a lot
- 11:34like everyone's getting stupider, you
- 11:36know, and kids are getting dumber or
- 11:38that kind of thing. And I do think like
- 11:40yeah, you can make like a very valid
- 11:42argument there, but I don't think it's
- 11:44their fault. Like just look at this. How
- 11:47is a kid even supposed to combat all of
- 11:48this misinformation? It's not like
- 11:50they're they're not going to know. As a
- 11:52child, you think all grown-ups are like
- 11:55a you know, reliable source of
- 11:57information that isn't going to just
- 11:58like betray your trust or like, you
- 12:00know, do you harm in this way? And going
- 12:03online cuz all these kids have access to
- 12:06the internet just, you know, full free
- 12:08for all there. Obviously, they're going
- 12:09to get inundated with bad information
- 12:11there, but you would expect like schools
- 12:13would at least be like a safe haven for
- 12:15accurate information, but no, not
- 12:18really, it seems. So, yeah, it really
- 12:20sucks. And also, even if you are one of
- 12:22the few parents out there, it seems it's
- 12:24very rare, that isn't just letting your
- 12:26kids go, you know, rambunctious online
- 12:29with no supervision, and you send your
- 12:31children to school, well, even there
- 12:33they might still just be getting [ __ ]
- 12:35brain rot AI slop and their [ __ ]
- 12:37agendas that you're paying for. So, even
- 12:38if you're doing everything right as a
- 12:40parent and you are sending them to a
- 12:41school,
- 12:43there's a chance that that might just
- 12:44also be a
- 12:47place of misinformation too here with
- 12:49just AI generated garbage. Like it's
- 12:52crazy, man. It's just it's so out of
- 12:54control. Anyway, just wanted to yap
- 12:56about it a bit, that's it. See you.
