kept completely secret so i am going to read this letter from the pentagon press association and love to get your thoughts on this. here is what they said. the fact that he has been at walter reed medical center for four days and the pentagon is only now alerting the public late on friday evening is an outrage at a time there are growing threats to us service members in the middle east and the us is playing key national security roles in israel and ukraine, particularly critical for the american public to be informed about the health status and decision-making ability of its top defense leader. what is the balance here? do we deserve to know? how out of bounds is this? kayleigh: the secretary of defense is in a chain of command. back to the bush era, having the authority to fire missiles, this is a serious position and the white house press corps, there are some clouds in there,
days and the pentagon is only now alerting the public late on friday evening is an outrage. at a time when there are growing threats to u.s. military service members in the middle east and the u.s. is playing a key national security role in the wars in israel and ukraine, it is particularly critical for the american public to be informed about the health status and decision making ability of its top defense leader. if as you pointed out earlier, fox news' jen griffin likened this to something that would happen in communist china. kayleigh: yeah, barb a starr, she's in the pentagon press corps -- and i want to point out unlike the white house press corps, pentagon press corps, these are the best of the best. barbara starr of cnn saying this is a huge strategic failure. as of tonight, i do not see a way forward for believing that the pentagon tells the truth. these are harsh words. and just as a reminder, the sec tar of de -- secretary of defense is in the chain of
they could decide to change their minds later and end up turning on us. so i wouldn't want us to slide into a state where we become very dependent on them. we're already kind of moving in that direction. for example, one of the robots was given some rights a few years ago by saudi arabia, it gave them citizenship. so i don't think we should be giving them more and more power and more decision making ability because they can be dishonest. will: the question is, is there some kind of middle ground, right? these robots run on a.i., an ability to self-learn. the question is, can we program limitations? and as their the intelligence exceeds our own, and every projection is they'll be able to exceed human intelligence in the not too far distant future, how do we we find a middle ground? how do you control this thing? because if you can't, it's not hard to get to dystopia. >> yeah, that's right. for example just last week, openai mentioned on their site that they think we might get an a.i. that is vastly martyr --
they have to be part of that discussion. >> reporter: brian todd, cnn, washington. alexis ohanian, welcome. thank you so much for talking with me. >> thank you for having me, chris. >> so i want you to view this conversation, and this won't be a leap of imagination for you, like you're dealing with a rather dim student. it will become apparent pretty quickly. what is artificial intelligence, and how does it work? >> all right, well first, i don't think you're giving yourself enough credit. but to answer your question, for the last decade, we've seen narrow applications of a.i. whether it's self-driving car companies or, you know, computer vision, you know, license plate reading companies that have very specific abilities. but the last breakthrough, really the a.i. breakthrough that we're all talking about now, are companies like open a.i. they're actually doing the work of a human with decision-making
companies or, you know, computer vision, you know, license plate reading companies that have very specific abilities. but the last breakthrough, really the a.i. breakthrough that we're all talking about now, are companies like open a.i. they're actually doing the work of a human with decision-making ability, with researching ability. and it's rapidly evolving. and so it's something that's changing literally every day. >> and again, for dummies, how does it do that? how does it work? >> sure. well, for instance, a company like open a.i., they have scraped a massive corpus of knowledge, mostly from the internet. and the wild part about this is, if you feed enough data into these algorithms, into these models, over time it can start to learn to identify what things are. and so here's a very simple example of this. what used to be a very hard test for a.i. was distinguishing
you, general. >> everybody knows exactly what happened, so and what i do is i authorize my military. >> i have generals that are great generals. my generals and my military, they have decision-making ability. >> again, as the most virulent carrier of this sort of antidemocratic virus in america, that man right there, how do you think he views the military today? >> well, it's hard to say today because, first of all, you're right. he considered them his generals, which was a terrible spot to put these officers into, and i describe another incident that happened may 9th, i think 2020. just weeks before june 1st where we all gather in the cabinet room to brief him on china, and he comes in, he's already upset about something else, and it escalates into, again, a 20 minute or so tirade complaining about the military, complaining about the generals that we can't win in afghanistan, we can't beat the chinese.
adversaries and leaders of other countries for every tick or bobble that might influence their decision making ability or the ability to stay in power. i spent a lot of time looking at vladimir putin. these reports from foreign leaders that have been spending time with him recently are concerning. folks that had access to him relate he is acting differently. i think some of the photos now compared to a year ago show that he is bloated or swollen. that may indicate a medication he is taking to mask should condition. my counterpart sergei was pub like -- publicly humilinated by the national security council and that's something he hasn't
in having decision-making ability. i cringed. we want decision-making ability. >> , baz mama bears are bad. he is doing better and then in suburban areas than expected an certainly then president trump to. we have a lot more to discuss i the extended coverage, but let' find out where the votes are coming into the race. phil, i've got to ask you because this thing about he wanted to bring it in for sure and the vast majority of people there was a fact that there wer to in ten people who did not have a good impression of president trump will elected to vote either way. i think it's something we diges over the coming days in see where how it settles in and the new political face of american
