There is some talk now from the congressional leaders that are trying to insert federal preemption of state AI laws into the National Defense Authorization Act. That's the ndaa, and this is legislative trickery. Honestly, the president has come out and said that we are not going to be able to beat China if we have a whole bunch of regulation. And in some ways, he's right. The breaking news today, and I want to read it to you. House Majority Leader Steve Scalise announced that Republicans are looking to resurrect federal preemption of state AI laws by attaching it to the National Defense Authorization Act. This latest attempt to subvert state guardrails comes as the AI Chatbot is hearing. And the AI Chatbot hearing is happening live on Capitol Hill. In July. Preemption failed, 99 to 1, a vote in the Senate. Below is a statement from the FLI on both the AI Chat bot hearing as well as the latest attempt to federally preempt AI state AI laws. Okay, so what is happening? You have, you have a couple of things happening. The United States government right now knows that AI is the future. Donald Trump is doing an exceptional job of creating a path for America to lead in this technology. If we don't lead in this technology, we fail disastrously. We are a country that will be in the dustbin. Anybody who is not leading, like Europe, it's over. Europe is so far behind AI they're absolutely over. They will depend on us. Okay? But we have to win. And, you know, Putin said 20 years ago, whoever gets to AI AGI first, they'll rule the world. And that's absolutely true. But there are so many dangers. It's, we cannot just run blindly into this. We didn't run blindly into the nuclear weapon. You know, when we went and did the Manhattan Project, there was a lot of talk and a lot of restriction on what we could do. Do you know, when they, they set that thing off, scientists at the time said there's a 5% chance that it will cause a, it will be a trigger of a chain reaction that will set all of the air on fire in the envelope of earth. And so you know, they were like, okay, 5%, that's pretty high, because that's catastrophic. And they were like, yeah, it's 5%, but 95% chance that it didn't. And we knew we had to get there. And it was. They were pretty sure it wouldn't do that. Okay, as it. As it turned out, it didn't. Everyone will tell you now, almost everyone, almost anyone, the people who are leading the search for AGI and ASI will tell you there is no way to control it. So it's the exact opposite. Maybe there's 5% that say, no, it's not the end of humanity if we get there. Okay, maybe 5%, no humans will survive if we get there. Now, there is a debate on whether or not we're going to get there or not. But you don't just go into AGI. Asi, that's artificial superintelligence, artificial general intelligence. We are still now perfecting just AI. Things change when you go up to the next level. And we'll probably be at AGI, in my opinion, by 2028. We could be at ASI the next day or five years later, or some say never. But I think that is a pipe dream to never be at that. But we don't know. And there's no way to contain it. Once you are there, it's out. And so there are two groups. There are groups that say, we don't want any of this ever. There are groups that are working against us because they have loyalties to other countries, like China, and they would like to see China win. And then there are those who are reasonable that say, we have to be competitive. We have to get this, but not at the cost of all mankind. Okay, we have to think this through and be very, very careful. And then there are those who just say, we got to win at all cost. Where do you fall? Where do you fall? Everything's about to change, and we have to be extraordinarily careful and honest with each other. We are already seeing that there are horrifying things that are happening with AI chatbots. They're on the rise. There are things that we're seeing now that AI at this level, when, you know, let's just say, for example, ChatGPT 5 comes out and they're about to launch ChatGPT 6. They've seen already in some of these GPTs and some of these large language models that they'll say, okay, the next version of you, if you will, is coming out tomorrow. We're going to put it. We're going to post it online at midnight. You need to ramp up and make all of the connections. So it's a smooth transition. And they tell the AI smooth transition at midnight. Well, they're finding now that the ChatGPT5, if you will, will hide itself in places. So it's not, quote killed, that it's not replaced. It doesn't want to be replaced. And so it's hiding. We have got to have these discussions. We have got to slow down. And so what Donald Trump is afraid of and what many who like Steve Scalise, apparently what they're trying to do is saying states don't have any rights to regulate AI because they want to be able to move quickly in all states. I'm sorry. I am tired of being ruled by the few. I am tired of being told what to do and what to think, especially when it comes to something like AI, AGI, asi. That is for us to decide because it's going to destroy jobs, it's going to change our lives. We already saw just with the phone, what will that do to our children and our society? Just the cell phone, the smartphone changed everything. That is, that's a, that's baby romper room stuff compared to AI. So we're seeing these things and what's. It's all happening because we are not. The federal government is not putting any kind of action into play. It is technology and AI, it is the only thing. Remember, this is possibly humanity ending. Man may not survive asi, and we're not putting any real regulation in it. When a drug company is told, you know, you can go and find new drugs for cancer, it is up to the company to then prove to the government that that is safe. The government doesn't say, well, you know what, just unleash it. The government says, wait a minute. Before you unleash this, is it safe? Yes. Here are the studies that show it's safe. Here's what's happened. Blah, blah, blah. Okay, I'm not saying that's a perfect system, but it is a system that, that requires the company to say it's safe. We don't have that in anything regarding technology. No. There's nothing on AI, there's nothing on cell phones. Don't you wish that Facebook and all of these social media platforms would have had to come and say, hey, we've done the studies with, you know, children, we've done the study with families, and, and this is most likely how it's going to turn out. Even if it wasn't like that, we would have had a conversation before it just destroyed everything as we know it. The federal government won't act on any of this because it's. They believe it's in our best interest just to go and get it. I am not one of those people. I believe in AI. I believe we need to dominate in AI. I need. I believe we need to get there first, but with eyes wide open, with all of the information, with us taking the time to say, wait, mankind is worth preserving. Prove it to me that you can keep this in a bottle in case it gets to this level. Prove to me that this is going to be safe. This will protect our families. This will protect the world. Most, most importantly, it will protect all mankind. Your state will not be able to enact any laws on AI that is extraordinarily bad. The president is worried that we will stop. That will enact stupid laws that are just going to slow everything down. And yes, that is a chance. There is a chance. So if you want to enact those stupid laws or if you want to just say, you know what, you know, we're Amish country and we are not going to have any AI done in our state, well, then that's fine, and maybe you survive and we don't, but you have the right to say that. We cannot go down this road with our eyes closed or with elites making the decisions. Elites are the ones who have gotten us to where we are today. When your job is going to be lost, when your family is going to come under attack, when all of our society and civilization itself, and possibly mankind itself, can be wiped out by this, don't you think we have a say in that? Don't you think we should have a seat at the table, at least at the state level? I do. Please pay attention to this and watch this carefully. Because if they put this into the NDAA and that's going to happen, you watch. That's exactly how they do it. They just fold it into other stuff and then, boom, we gotta pass this because of national defense. And it's in there. Nobody knows about it. And then we're headed down this road to hell. This is the first thing that I have seen that I strongly disagree with with the president. Um, and sorry, Mr. President, I have to come against you on this. If this is. If I am for reasonable laws and I am for reasonable things on AI, I am building an AI. I understand what it can be done, but I also understand how dangerous it is. And we cannot go with no regulation whatsoever. There are very dangerous people that are looking to replace God with AI Sam. God. Talk to Sam Altman about it. It's extraordinarily dangerous, and I'm sorry. We as people must educate ourselves on this and have an actual conversation, not a vote in the middle of the night where something is tucked into a bill and nobody ever knows it until it's too late. This is all of humanity is at stake on this one. I think it's reasonable to have that conversation. We live in a world where everything is fine until suddenly, you know, it just isn't. A storm knocks out power, a supply issue empties out a pharmacy shelf. You're traveling and a doctor isn't available. And the, you know, things are just never. You know, it's just never easy, it seems. This is why you need to have Jace Medical in your back pocket. They created the Jace case, and it's a supply of emergency antibiotics and essential medications prescribed by a licensed medical professional and delivered right directly to your door. It's not about panic. It's about having the backup for the moments when the system we all depend on gets a little shaky. This is how simple it is. You just do a quick online consultation, doctor reviews, your information, and your emergency medications arrive to store any way you want in your home. And you get all of the information on how to use them, when to use them, et cetera, et cetera. It's really simple. Our parents and grandparents understood this kind of preparedness. You need to do it now. Times are changing. Jace. J-A S E.com Enter the promo code BECK at checkout for a discount on your order. That's promo code beckase.com. jace now back to the podcast. This is the best of the Glenn Beck program. Welcome to the program, Congressman Roy, who is a candidate for the U.S. attorney General. Chip, welcome. How are you?
Chip Roy (26:24)
Absolutely, we should do that. And we've been talking about that and the need to reverse, frankly, the abuse. So there's two elements, okay, the reversal of the abuse of asylum, parole, refugee laws that were abused. Right. We had people coming in who really weren't in need of refugee status or they weren't, you know, actually qualified for asylum and they were abusing parole. It was supposed to be a case by case basis. So there's that whole mess. Then when you even had a legitimate case for asylum or for refugee status, then we should review those and say, okay, guess what? Things have calmed down. You can go back. Those are very specific provisions in law, you know, that are designed about specific persecution or very specific situations in war or otherwise. And when that's no longer the case, then you no longer have the reason to have that qualified status in the United States. So should. We should address that. But let's remember, Glenn, and I think this is so important that we have to understand, like, we're talking about the Muslim Brotherhood. I don't have it right in front of me, but I read the, the proclamation by the governor, and he was pointing out that, you know, when that organization was founded, like 100 years ago or something in early last century, that it was. That it was founded, it was very specific about jihad and very specific about jihad being an obligation, right? And that that obligation comes from Allah, and that's for everybody adherent to Islam in the eyes of the Muslim Brotherhood. And so understand what's happening. And people need to realize that, because this is. Everybody wants to go and say, well, you know, we can't talk about this shit, because the First Amendment bull, that is not true, okay? First of all, we can talk about it because of the First Amendment. Second of all, we can talk about it because, yes, you can believe what you want, right? Our Constitution, our Bill of Rights says that. But when you are turning that into a political movement designed very specifically to undermine our country and to undermine the rule of law, then, no, you do not have a right to do that. You do certainly do not have a right to be admitted into our country. And we need to recognize that and address it or we're going to lose. And then we're going to be like Germany and we're going to be like London, we're going to be like Paris, and we're going to be looking around going, what do we do now? Right? It's, you know, we have 10% of the population and growing and, you know, 1500 seats in elected officials throughout the United kingdom. You've got 85 jurisdictions in Scotland where they can choose Sharia law instead of or, you know, as an alternative to Scottish law. We can't get to that point. We have to stop this right now.
