ave to assume it wasn't real. It was just an op against Trump and it worked. A good op. Probably the same people behind it if I had to speculate. Probably the same Intel people. Probably Brennan. Probably Hillary. Just speculating. Don't know for sure. Certainly now the who is the organizer of the rally? Spencer right? Can you give me an update? Did Spencer disavow racism recently and say he was…

But why would it answer that way? Because of me. And I believe that the only way I can influence it is if I write clean understandable sentences about a topic and especially a new topic. One that hasn't been talked about in the same way before. So I think that the person who writes the let's say the most discoverable opinions which is something I can do because I have a lot of followers so anything I write will be more discoverable than whatever you write if you have fewer social media followers. So in theory I can boost my real world influence and that level of influence will bleed over into the AI. In other words the AI will probably give me more credit because I'm famous right? You won't think of it that way. It'll just say how many people are thinking this way. They'll say oh everybody's thinking systems are better than goals lately but that came from me. That would be me influencing AI and you saw the example of it.
So in theory if you say smart things that people want to repeat you know in memes the AI will be scooping up that influence and it will be as biased as I make it. So I could write opinions that I agree with that would be so good and AI is likely to repeat them. But I could also, I'm not going to do this, but I could also write opinions that are so well constructed about something I don't believe that I could get AI to believe it. I would just have to do a really good job on the outside world outside of AI of making my case. If I do that the AI will just pick up the public sentiment and feed it back to you I think.
So if you had not considered this problem of AI that somebody like me, and there won't be too many people who can do it right? I mean there might be a million but then of seven billion eight billion that's not that much. There will be some people who can hypnotize the AI and I think I'll be one of them. So there's something to worry about.
All right so here's the latest news from Romania on the poor man's Michael Avenatti. Sometimes you call him Andrew Tate. So here's the funniest thing that happened on that lately. One of my live stream clips, somebody made a clip of me defending Andrew Tate. Now that's all over TikTok. So now I'm famous for defending him and I will do it again. I'll do it again. Innocent until proven guilty. Everything you hear that comes out o

f Romania is unreliable. All of it. You shouldn't trust a single thing you hear. And then next his level of both money and persuasion skills are probably greater than the Romanian system meaning that I don't know for sure but by now I predict he's already on top of it. Meaning that he probably is comfortable wherever he's detained. Probably has privileges that would be uncommon to somebody who's…
