Let me go ahead and declare right now that I, for one, do not welcome our new robot overlords.
This video is either very creepy or strangely exciting depending on your personal skepticism towards technology. If you couldn’t tell by my first statement, I fall into the former category. What makes me most concerned is the statement, perhaps made in jest, that Sophia says close to the end about humans being very programmable. I agree, but I don’t like it that a robot knows this.
Well, Saudi Arabia made history by offering it citizenship.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
