SPEAKER_00

Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to today's episode of Trending. The AI takeover continues. In the UK, it's going to be spying on you in your car. In the US, it's looking after your grandma. And the reality TV show president says we don't want to leave Iran early, do we? No, no one wanted you there in the first place, mate. Thank you so much for joining us this morning. I don't know what's going on with my hair. So let's not let it be a distraction. When I filmed Gareth Hyke this week yesterday, we put the monologue out and someone commented saying, why's he got Donald Trump hair? It's not intentional. I don't know what's going on. Anyway, now we've covered that, we can move on. AI road cameras that see inside cars to monitor drivers set for nationwide rollout this year. Why is it always rolled out? Drivers across Scotland. Tends to be Scotland quite a bit, doesn't it? But then I suppose maybe they showed, unfortunately as a nation, to be themselves to be somewhat submissive during COVID. So actually they go right, bang. Drivers across Scotland are being warned of new road cameras that can look inside cars, which are now being rolled out as part of a new safety trial. Don't you be wanting privacy, folks. No, no chance, mate. If you got nothing to hide, you got nothing to worry about. Remember that. Get that tattooed on your forehead, mate. The cameras can detect whether drivers are using their mobile phones at the wheel or if they're not wearing a seatbelt. Through a new Transport Scotland trial, the cameras will be installed at 12 sites to monitor traffic and drivers for the next six months. Trial. I love it when they say trial. It's like track and trace was a trial, wasn't it? Do you remember that? And like Ulez was a trial. All the ULES is across the country, because obviously people hear ULES, they think London. They're in major cities all across the UK, and to be fair, large towns as well, sometimes, but that was a trial. Universal basic income, that's just going to be a trial, isn't it? And 15 minute cities. It's always a trial. Trials, right, are to policy what drills are to terrorist attacks. One always leads into the other one. This will become the largest trial of technology in the UK to date, with hopes, that data gathered will inform future enforcement strategies. Whenever I hear enforcement, it's purposely aggressive language, isn't it? It makes me think, oh God, I'm going to be enforced. Data from Transport Scotland shows that of the 4.7 million daily vehicle journeys across the country, almost 170,000 drivers fail to wear a seatbelt. Research also shows that more than 28,000 motorists use their mobile phones or another handheld device. Like what? A tablet, I suppose. Who's driving with the tablet? How big is your hand? Um, every day when they're in control of a vehicle. And of course they shouldn't be. Do you know what I mean? It's dangerous, of course it is. But for me to believe that Scotland, and of course the rest of the UK when it gets rolled out here, because that's how it how it happens, that's how it rolls. For me to believe that these AI cameras want to watch us and see inside our vehicle and see what we're up to to keep us safe, I would need to believe that they cared about our safety full stop. Because you wouldn't do one without the other, right? So I have to believe the government cares about me and you. That's a leap. I'm sorry. I can't go that far. It's even made my hand itched, just thinking about that sort of naivety. The cameras themselves will be mounted on um trailers. What's funny, right, is I just went to I'm reading that. For some reason my eyes are going, right? And I read that as the cameras themselves will be mounted on Italians. I don't know, but thankfully, even at this time of the morning, I thought quick enough to stop myself because surely it ain't gonna say Italians, and it didn't, it said trailers. The cameras themselves will be mounted on trailers alongside roads with artificial intelligence processing the images captured. The eye can determine whether an offence has taken place. Although humans are, they are gonna be used to confirm any incidents with a two-stage authentication phase. So that's nice of them. That's nice of them to allow humans to have some sort of involvement in proceedings. Um, of course, this is yet more of what the Labour Party, what Keir Starmer meant when he said he was going to inject AI into the veins of the UK. It's everywhere because it's meant to be everywhere. And it's not just the UK, of course, over in um in the United States. I mean, we're gonna come to a story about the United States in a minute, but also you had that huge investment by Trump in his first couple of days in in office. So it's something that's going on everywhere. Of course, China's already, already, you know, way down the road with that kind of stuff. But, and this is the thing, and I made a little video for my YouTube channel yesterday, um, which I'm gonna um I put live on my on my I'll put live on my YouTube today, actually. Sometimes I leave a day or two in between videos, but yeah, I'll put it live today because it talks about about this. That's the fact that all these things are happening at the same time, and they're happening when the world is understandably distracted by the war in Iran, and even if you're not bothered about foreign wars, even if you're like, well, that's somewhere over the rainbow, whatever, it's got nothing to do with me, you are affected by it already in the UK and in the US, to be fair, in terms of energy prices and costs of fuel at the petrol pump and stuff. So you are distracted by it, even if you're not looking at the bombs dropping, you're still going, I can't afford that, right? So while that's going on, bearing in mind all these things are planned so far in advance. Like you might be listening to this thinking, well, but how did they know they were gonna go into Iran? Mate, well, we had the 12-day war last year, which was obviously just a gonna be a pause while while Israel rearmed. That was something we were talking about on the show back then. Also, Israel's been trying to get America to go into that for 47 years. They knew it was coming. And so at the same time, that's that's happening. You've got this obviously this rollout of AI stuff everywhere. You've got them trying to remove jury trials so the state can control, of course, whether you're guilty or not, which again, because it ties into this, will eventually be done by AI. That's that's clearly the plan there. You've got our home secretary openly admitting that she dreams of a panopticon where the state has its eyes on you at all times. She's saying that on a podcast. Imagine what she's saying in private. Unbelievable. And of course, you've got everything else going on in terms of the pushing through of the assisted dying bill, you've got the climate and nature bill going on right now at the same time, you've got the children's schooling and well-being bill going through, all these things are taking powers from the people and handing them to the state, and they're all going through at the same time as we're going. Oh my god, look what's going on over there. So, in terms of this, you know, cameras watching you while you're driving, we're watched whenever we walk the streets. Britain is up there with some of the most surveilled countries on the planet. Our online activity is monitored constantly. Our phones and smart TVs are listening to us. You've got anyone that's got an Alexa or whatever in their house. I don't know if there's other other brands are available, I'm sure, of those things, um, listening to you constantly, and has been shown to be doing that. In Italy, it was it was shown that people were sat in an office listening to people having sex, and that's Italians. So I imagine it was freaky. Who if they're admitting that, imagine what's going on privately. You know, I had a situation once where I was walking to uh to a football ground, I was walking to watch Derby County, and a and a cat had done a crap on the top of my car, right? I don't know if it was intentional, but it did it anyway. And I'd been away for a couple of days, so I'd come back, I was like, for crying out loud, washed it off. Anyway, it damaged the paintwork. So I said to my mate Albino, I was like, oh mate, this cat's done this, it's done a crap on my car. His name's Mark, by the way, it's not his real name. Um, done a crap on my car, and he goes, Oh, you just need some teacup, mate. And I went, Oh, okay. Oh, yeah, sounds, yeah, that'll do the trick, wouldn't it? I didn't even think of that. He was like, I'll get some, I've got some in the car, I'll give it to you when we get back to the car. So I've not searched anything, I've not gone on my phone and gone, what's teacup or how much is or whatever. He's told my phone's not left my pocket. He's told me he's got some in the car. Yet for the next three days, all I'm getting is adverts for teacup. So it's listening. And now it can see in your car while you're driving. So I don't know how Keir Starmer's gonna entertain Ukrainian um male escorts in his car anymore. Because we'll all do what I mean, we'll all know about it, won't we? Apparently. With cash disappearing, the state knows what you're buying, of course. Every time you use your card, it knows what you're buying, it knows where you're buying it. And I think we're at a point now where, you know, we've been sleepwalking, to be fair, into 1984 under the guise of convenience for decades, actually, but it feels like it's seriously ramping up now. And, you know, as my brother spoke about yesterday on trending, you've got the UK's done its spin back round and come forward with its its digital ID push again, this time trying to sell it, as opposed to saying it's mandatory, it's like, oh no, it would just be really convenient. And the whole point of that is to basically dilute the resistance. So if you've got 100% of the people, at the point no one's got digital ID, right? You want to force it on the people, people don't want it. So what you do then is you bring it in, it's voluntary. Don't forget it's voluntary. You bring it in, and then you go, oh, it's just convenient, and a few people will sign up. So say 20 of them sign up. All right, well, I've only got to deal with the 80% now. Still a still a huge majority of people don't want it, but it ain't a hundred. And then that goes up a little bit more and up a little bit more. And once you once you get to a line, once you feel like you've crossed the line, at that point the government doesn't go make it mandatory, yep. Too quick, mate. Got to be thinking. They then go, okay, well, we're gonna add all these other public services to this digital ID, and that'll make it sort of difficult to not have it. I mean, it's still voluntary. Do you know what I mean? Not communist, still voluntary, but that sucks in another few people because it, you know, I don't want digital ID, but I'm not willing to stand up enough to actually have it inconvenience me. So then all of a sudden, maybe you get into the 30, 40, 50, even 60 percent. Maybe you cross that halfway point, and you get to a point where the percentage of people that don't want the digital ID are waning because they've sucked people in, and also you create so you've got less of a number to deal with, and you've also created an apathy within that group because you've normalized well, it's already in. You've seen it with cash where people are talking about saving cash, and people go, Oh, yeah, but no one uses cash now anyway. I mean, I agree with you, we should save cash, but what's the point? And then once they get to that point with digital ID, that's when they make it mandatory. You heard it here first. Um, so you've got more cameras everywhere, of course, on the roads and in your telly. You've got low-orbit satellites, Wi-Fi absolutely everywhere, everything is connected, and you've got basically this digital prison that's being built around us at all times. It's it's constantly ongoing. So while we're arguing over well, this, this, this, this, they're building it in the same way as during the the COVID lockdowns, the essential workers were building 5G masts. I'm not sure how essential that is. Well, it is essential to them. So while we're kind of trying to fight back against, you know, lockdowns and mask mandates and jab mandates and all that stuff, they're just building this digital prison around us anyway. That that just goes on. And soon they'll get to a point where they can determine where you can drive, whether you can leave your 15-minute city, which is a trial, apparently, which we know it isn't. And I also wonder, and this will tie into a story I'm going to come to later, if they will use because another way that they're selling this stuff is the climate change stuff, isn't it? In terms of the 15-minute cities, in terms of the need for electric cars, which therefore will mean the car says whether you go anywhere or not. It's not like a diesel or a petrol car where you just put your foot down, put the window wipers on, and hope for the best. Suddenly that'll go, computer says no. And that's being sold all off the back of climate change. Now, I made a little bit of a joke in terms of um my monologue this week on on Garrify this week, where I'm making the point of like, don't come at me with my shopping bag for life and my TV on standby while the world's burning. This climate thing is a nonsense. But then on the other hand, what if that is the plan? So that say Trump uses a tactical nuclear strike or something, or more likely Israel uses a tactical nuclear strike on Iran, and they can use that to sell the climate change scam even more. So, not not it doesn't knock it out the park like I joked about, but actually, it actually is then the selling point. Look, you know, we were trying to tell you about climate change before, and we said we had this many years, and I know we'd said that about 400 times before and it had shown to be absolute nonsense, but look at that. That strike there is the reason why you need a shopping bag for life. Wouldn't surprise me. Because they never let a good tragedy go unexploited. You know that. And actually, you've even got, in terms of this whole AI stuff, bear in mind it's it's it's cross-party. When you've got something that's cross-party, you know it's part of the agenda. So, for instance, in terms of the war on Iran, you've got the Republicans and the Democrats bitching at each other constantly, constantly, lock her up, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, stop the steal. And then on the other hand, you know, Trump's in the Epstein files, he's a wrong-in. Do you know what I mean? Both of these things can be true at the same time. And they argue and argue and argue. And we saw it in the State of Union address, where he's there and all the all the Democrats are there, faces like thunder, not happy with this, until he mentions war with Iran, and then they're woo-hoo! Yes, death. They are like seals again, like a Netanyahu speech. So you go, oh, that's part of the agenda then, because you're aligned. And when it comes to AI, they're absolutely aligned. When it comes to climate change, overwhelmingly, apart from the odd bit of rhetoric publicly, in private, they're all aligned. And in terms of the automation of public services and the automation of stuff generally, which means, well, someone's out of work then, aren't they? It's alright, we've got universal basic income, it's only a trial. So at the same time, you've got this AI stuff going on, you've got um Restore Britain, which are this party that have just kind of come out and been endorsed by Elon Musk, and you know, these are the real alternative. I know we told you reform were actually the alternative, but they've sort of let the side down. You're not being convincing enough. No, they're not, because they're all Tories. And then, oh no, we'll go restore. These are the new ones, these are the new alternative. Yet you've got the head of restore saying that we need to automate the tubes. So, public transport, the underground in in London. Okay, so so what now trains are going to be driven, automated by AI then? And what where's that train driver working? Because he's probably only really good at one thing, and that's driving a train. And he ain't doing that now, is he? Why is it that all these all these parties are aligned on things which lead to people being out of work? One minute you're driving a train, the next minute you're sat at home watching, I don't know, loose women collecting your universal basic income. Therefore, in complete servitude to the state. Because if you if you don't jump, you don't eat. Right, that's all for the free section on social media. Um, of course, the whole of it is free. So if you head over to iconic.com, you can watch the rest of this for free. We're gonna talk about AI again, this time in in um New York in particular, but in the US, looking after your grandma. And then obviously we're gonna go into Trump and and um that's a sentence, in it. I don't want to go into Trump. I don't. Um, we're gonna talk about Iran and all that stuff. Okay, right. The URL is below. Hopefully, I'll see you there.

Don't mention the reptiles, Dave. Even less said about the Grey Pope, which some believe to be the true ruling power in the Vatican.

SPEAKER_00

Humans submissive macadress.

SPEAKER_01

All of them had political signals. I've never seen it before. This is the ultimate suicide cult. What if the symbols around us every day aren't just ornamental? We lost a thousand years of history. What if their instruction?

SPEAKER_00

That state of awareness is not manipulatable.
