Tariffs are amplifying the importance of Artificial Intelligence, as more recognize the fact that we have hollowed out our manufacturing base and no longer produce essential basic items for ourselves.  In that sense we live in a Controlled Environment.  In a world where Severed Conscience is meant to keep you under control, you have to ask yourself what type of society we have built for ourselves.  Perhaps it more of a trap than a healthy society.

While it is important to wield new tools, should we accept the pronouncements that AI has gained a modicum of sentience?  Will that drive policy to rally around companies like OpenAI, Anthropic and Google to provide a pre-emptive bailout?

In this episode we examine the Bro-ligarchs claiming that AI is now forming abstractions on it’s own, how tariffs affect the tech sector by reducing the number of vital components, and Sarah Wynn-Williams shocking revelations that all the apps in the Facebook family of products knowingly targeted teens and relied on creating conditions that would enhance depression in order to sell them beauty products, show them ads and other content paid for by marketers.

We have been manipulated. Severed Conscience is a prison of the mind.
