MUST WATCH: A. I. Friend or Foe?

It's new. It's exciting. It's novel. And it's sweeping off the whole entire world. There is no one that has not heard of this incredible creation that we refer to as AI, artificial intelligence, something that is unexplainable almost. And probably from all the incredible creations that mankind has delivered in all centuries, this is probably one of the greatest that has ever existed. It is just so incredible that any document I could write, he writes it out perfectly, organized, articulate, flawless in any type of way that I ask, any letter, anything, any question that I ask. You wait a few seconds and immediately the response is re is you receive an immediate response without any type of errors. Well, sort of at least in the meantime eventually according to what they say. And what's more what's more interesting than anything and this is my own which I believe is very true. Some people when I spoke this out to them told me it already has started is that you don't have to push any buttons. You have a dialogue automatically by just speaking to your AI computer and he responds and he gives you the exact response that you want. I assure you in our world, a world that is disinterested in proper marriages, that is not into so much working on themselves and having to deal with a spouse that has to tell them what to do and they have to deal with another personality. Relationships will be delivered to my AI, to my fancy computer. It will be so nice to just spend a nice time out with him or her, depending on whatever you guys decide what language you're going to put on it. And then you end up um you know always being responsive. Whenever I ask, always answered. When I disagree, he follows up with me. Whenever I try to give him that's something that bothers me, he's with it. He agrees and he just conceds. Empathetic. Wow. He's just fantastic. That's what seems to be, as they say, it's just the beginning of what we are about to see or we're about to see in the future. So, sort of speak, if I could start, it sounds a little bit like a positive progress. It seems to be that maybe this has some type of positive energy here because we're going to be able to save time. Time is money. The more you could do, maybe you could do it for other things. And maybe you could use a mitzvah. Maybe that nuda we might speak about in the sequel, not in this year. But there's a very important point that I want to bring out from here, which I'm going to tell you now. No one here, especially me, is going to come and say stop using AI. Just like 15 years ago, people were talking about internet and stopping. 20 years ago, no, it's dangerous. Look what's going to happen. Koolle, we know that it's on deck. We know that it's taking over the world, and we know that it's inevitable. And no, no little rabbi in any corner is going to come and say, "Well, you can't use it anymore." We know it's a it's a it's a it's a necessity that is taking over the world. But I want to explain oneud of how we have to use it in order to avoid its danger. A captain who is on a ship that goes ahead and he's trying to find where he has to go and he wants to feel free like the wind and not feel limited by the by the outside societies that are telling him where and how to go. Will take his compass and throw it over the ocean. When he goes ahead and throws it into the ocean, do you know what will happen to him? I'm talking about the olden days captain. He will end up going nowhere. He will want to go wherever the wind takes him, but the wind will take him nowhere and he won't end up finding any type of place except for down under the ocean right next to the Titanic. A person needs to have the power of the wind to pull him somewhere and he needs the compass to be able to lead him to where he needs to go. A person needs to have his incentive, his ruts and his wanting, his interest to be able to give him a drive to get somewhere. But you can't forget about the compass, the place, the head, the intelligence which tells you how and where to do it. Cars have a two very important factors. They have the gas pedal which gets you the energy which is what you have to do and that's the whole entire engine and has the steering wheel and you can't move anywhere without the steering wheel. You're just going to end up getting nowhere except slamming into a wall. That's going to be the problem. So no problem. We took care of that one also. We have self-driving cars now. So you don't have that that that that problem either. But just like we have self-driving cars which tells me I don't need a brain anymore in order to do something. We have AI which is kind of being mash which is kind of making one's brain dormant. And this is where the problem lies and let me explain to you what I mean. When I was in the mirror for many years I was there for a long amount of time. There was someone a RV who used to bring one a child of his who was already in his upper 20s but he was a very low functioning autistic child very low functioning autistic child and I used to observe many times when I was there I was a bak but to observe certain things he would come up behind bakham sometimes and slap him across the back and the guy's keeper would fly across the hall and he would look around in in fury like who did this to me oh it's him whatever his name is that's who it was he would walk down into the lunchroom and everybody used to hawk over their food because they knew that if you would get close to your food, you're going to start seeing chicken flying across the room. You're going to start seeing this the biggest spaghetti on the floor. It's going to end up going somewhere else. And other instances where sometimes he would actually sit on the floor and start saying comments. He wasn't able to talk, but he would kind of give out like yelps and these types of things that would happen kind of sitting on the floor and doing that in the hallway as you would walk from one place to the next. My point is trying to say something and that is that the that dot that we have the intelligence that a person contains is not just a cherry on top. It's an addition. Being human is our intelligence. When you see a person like that, you realize this is not this is subhuman. The whole humanity that we have within ourselves comes from our intelligence. It comes from the genius that we have in our mind. It comes from the ko of thinking of being able to think before we do something. And that is a whole enthalling part of being human of being what we call of being what we call a Benadam of what we call a Benadam. Without that you lose humanity. If you are a you want to put a level a level of of a or lower obviously I'm not referring to anything without that specific person. use as a mush. But that's what it means when the says to think skill is something above that. What is skill? It means is to take there's three levels. There's basic information. I gather information. And then there's bina which means I use that information and I build on that. And then there's last skill what's known as that is making that knowledge intimate. It becomes part of me. It affects me as the human that I am. The basic idea of is just basic dry knowledge intelligence you knowing and memorizing books. That's fine and that's fantastic. But that is something that's over and beyond. It affects me in a very intimate way. Sometimes you could think of something that you already are familiar with and suddenly it could bring tears to your eyes. I remember one time sitting on the couch with my wife and looking at our children and going and we were discussing saying a certain amount of that you have okay so they were killing each other jumping one on top of the other but in the end of the day when you saw them you go h these children kind of come from us I understand there are three and they come and they're growing and they're healthy and they're this and you get like this kind of breath of knowledge of of that you just get what are you talking you had kids for 20 years why why are you waking up now to start thinking about this you have kids for a decade and then suddenly you start thinking go oh how enjoyable howish where does that come from that's a level of it's something that taking the grub of knowledge just the knowledge itself and making it real making it a part of my intrinsic self it makes me feel it I live it it affects me in a very intimate way just like the says when Adam had relations with it's referred to as because there's a connection to that knowledge I think many of us should be familiar with the story with the grandson of Victor Miller when he he walked into the room and he saw and he saw Victor Miller with his head inside of a sink full of water and he was kind of you know there for for a few tens of tens maybe you know like a minute and then he let out his head and go and he took a very strong breath of fresh air and then he took a a breath of fresh air right why did he have to do that why can't I just come can you tell why do you have to do that why didn't you just come and just give a shar like he does all the time or Victor Miller and he would just say guys appreciate the air it's great you know we have oxygen if you wouldn't be you'd be suffocating right now think about a kamas tunnel if you were there and you could barely breathe you know there was a kamas tunnel that someone had to be seven stories down into the ground he said he wasn't even worried about the water he was worried about the oxygen he was barely able to breathe even even though weren't around there cuz they couldn't handle it down Anyways, why isn't it just enough to speak about like that? The answer is because that's maybe a little bit of but that it's not when you go and feel when a person's after a surfboard falls into the ocean and finds himself bobbing up after that spill that he thought he's not going to make it. Then he got a breath of that. Then he got a breath of understanding of connecting to what oxygen and appreciating what oxygen is all about. That is a whole different level which takes you to a different place. A person's watching uh the news and he sees, wow, there was a tsunami that happened in Thailand. 50,000 people were killed. What? 60 a 100,000 people. That's 100. It's up to what? Two. Oh my gosh. 200 and something thousand people were killed by a tsunami. And wow, we should appreciate the godness of Hashem and how great he one second the 200,000 people dead. or he's looking goes, "Wow, honey, is the food ready yet? I'm really hungry. Can we go? I'm just I'm almost finished, but I have two more minutes." Like, there's no real connection to the information with a tsunami in Thailand to me, even though that's a very terrible event. And it's like, "Wow, incredible." And you just want to see the film because you want to see how it happened. Wa! Look at those guys. Look what happened over there. There's cars floating on the ocean and houses. Well, you kind of look it as more of an interest as a type of thing. But when if a person goes ahead and this is what happened when people heard I'm purpose taking a specific scenario and people hear about October 7th when they heard about what happened on some people fainted people crying I remember speaking soon afterwards I was in tears it was something you couldn't even meet and I'm telling you I don't even know a single person that was there there are people in the south people I have no connection to no relationship with and you felt it in the pain it went from this is this is our connection these are the people that feel our brethren and you feel much more intimately connected. That's a piece of news that's not justformational but it's a piece of that. All this is coming to say an important idea. The power of that is human and that's what separates between us and anything else. When internet came out it was pure intelligence. It was the idea of something that we've never seen before to be able to contain so much information. And here we have this new idea that's known as artificial intelligence AI which is bina meaning it's able to take a little bit of the and learn from it other things produce things organize things and use the knowledge and kind of add to that knowledge interestingly enough and I don't know if it's a coincidence it's called in Hebrew bina malakit which is artificial bina because the power of beina I don't know if that was by accident or not but that seems to be what it is but one thing I tell you that it will never be is that is human that is real. That is us. That is the person of what he is. And it should never be that and it should never strip of of our should always be contained and you should never let it replace that. It can cause for us to stop thinking and you should never let us be relied on so much that the dot disappears that we don't use our capabilities of thinking of being able to connect because I'm going to tell you that if a person does stop using his dot and not just that then you should know it's extremely dangerous because the only way a person can change can move to a different realm to move to the next step up is the fact that he thinks before he does something. He thinks before an action. Instead of everything working as an action reaction, he's able to change himself or the world around him with his dot. He thinks about what he needs to do, how I should do it, and this that always when I hear criticism, I get angry. Always when I'm accused of something, I get defensive. Maybe it's not true. Maybe you shouldn't be acting that way. Maybe you should reassess the situation before you run ahead and go ahead and think twice about it. Ravuli was incredible about this. I saw it with myself and I heard it from a prime prime of it was a big msiah an elder who was by him for 20 years rag he wrote Alish he wrote very deep things he's incredible he's known as anything you would ask him and I mean anything he never answered action reaction he never immediately went in he would stop and stop for 20 seconds before he would answer you sometimes a minute sometimes 30 seconds everything took time before he responded why are we here come on I can answer that. No, he stopped thought about it for a certain amount of seconds and only then did he go ahead and he responded and the answer is and I'll tell you why because he had an aspect of that. You didn't want to answer things from maybe not even from bina from understanding comparing things. You want to come from dash from myself. I want to feel the information before I give it over. I want to connect. I want to spill over for me to you. I want you to understand what I'm saying. And therefore you relate that much connected. That's how a person graduates. That's how a person can affect himself. He thinks before he responds. He thinks before he takes action or he thinks before other you know in general things that he does. When a person doesn't think, he never changes. When a person never changes, he's depressed. When a person is undepressed, he's unaccomplished. He never feels he eventually gets what we call a matpoon, a conscience, a certain feeling of a consciousness within him. And it leads to a very strong level of depression. Sometimes they'll call it mid- crisis. Back in my days, it used to be maybe closer to 50. Now it's more than like 25. But anyways, this idea of feeling like what what am I accomplishing? Who am I? What what's about me? When you never use your dat, you never make the change. It's extremely extremely dangerous. There was a great psychologist from five a few thousand years ago that knew this and he's written in the Torah. You know what his name is? His name is Parro. Parro when Mosher Rabenu came and he and he you know he was a magical man. He knew that he was in in trouble. Parro and he said what did he do immediately to do this? One of the strongest most intelligent psychological things that someone could do. He said near double up their load. Get them. He says as Rashi brings down over there only because they have extra time in their hands. They're trying to get out. They're too they're thinking too much. They're too busy thinking and therefore they want to change. They want to move up in life. They want to exam. They want to go ahead and beem. They want to go and exit. They're going give them double the works. Don't let them think. Don't give them two minutes to themselves. make sure they overwork themselves so that they should never be able to have any type of intelligence to make a change and that is the I don't say I'm not trying to put compare the two but AI could accomplish it could make you near him could make you weak and this and just let him think let him do all the thinking for me it removes our thought process and that is the most dangerous thing that can happen so yes like I started we're not running away from AI I know you need to do but never let it remove you from taking a walk and thinking a little bit revol used to always adver advertise. Don't sometimes go take that 5 minute walk and don't have any type of back then he was talking about headphones or some type of you know a little phone to take with you nothing just on your own outside spend time just thinking with yourself thinking make your own because our is what makes us human that's what makes us real that's these parallel why is he bal why was he so great the ram asks what made him know so much he was just a young child it's because as the p says he He always worked on his he worked on his own capabilities of thinking thinking skills and therefore he was to build a he was the one who was to have such great things. You want to be human. You want to be immense. You want to grow. You want to make a change and you want to be able to be the best that you can be. Never let AI strip us from our datab.
