Red Beacon Daily News 07.08.2026 Elon: Work Optional?

Red Beacon Daily News July eighth, twenty twenty six. Bad news and horror moves. Trump says us I Ran ceasefire is over over after horror moon strikes. Trump said the negotiations could continue on a broader us I Ran peace deal, even though he considers the temporary truce to have ended. And from what I hear, he's got some serious words for the people who run Iran, words that explain them pretty well. Actually, quote the President says, for me, I think it's over, as he responded when asked by reporters about the status of the ceasefire, he says. He went on to say, it's just a waste of time dealing with them. Trump added, with his remarks coming on the sidelines of two day NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey, just hours after the US force has struck Iranian targets in the United States described as retaliation for attacks on tankers in the Strait. They can talk, but I think they're wasting their time, Trump said, it's clear. Yeah, the playing of the games, I think is something also happened, probably like in h at the NATO meeting, the summit, some conversations were had. It's very important conversations I think probably were had. We'll see, you know, we'll see how this thing goes. It's just what we're really good at, just never ending wars. You know, that's one of the things that we do really well. Big business, you know what I mean, big money and wars. I'll never forget when Tulca Gabbard talked about the cost of running a cafeteria in a war zone and how much they charge for a sandwich and a cracker and a napkin and a you know, spork, and there's a reason why she got booted or left or however. You want to do it right. You want to work, you're tired of working. Elon Musk says, maybe work becomes optional as you're a I assisted here, we've got a bit of a news situation. So this is an interesting well it's not the first time we've heard it from Elon, but business insider Elon must says AI will fund government checks. Should be very nervous about that right off the bat. AI will fund government checks for all and working will be optional. Michael Burry, on the other hand, says, there's gonna be a revolution first, pardon me before all that. Elon Musk's a well creates such abundance that governments will provide for all and work will become a choice. Bad idea, bad idea. I I mean, I like the optimism, but how do governments go from things that create perpetual debt ours almost forty trillion to something that has such a surplus and doesn't and doesn't like I imagine the corruption? Oh my god, can you imagine? You imagine US government making quintillions of dollars off of artificial intelligence and the amount of grift and graft and griefed and the whole nine yard. I can't even fathom it. I can't even fathom the levels of corruption, kings, presidents, Something even greater than the president would be born out of that much money. And the corporation right, AI plus robots will be able to do everything, resulting in universal high income. Must post it on posted recently on X, work will be optional, Burry says false. There will be a revolution first, and this is a little interchange between them over on X. That is an interesting take. There's no doubt about it. Must CEO of X. The great dissent cost of expertise is falling to zero as AI models follow allow everyone to access intelligence. It's amazing stuff. I don't think so, you know, I thought, I don't want to get into this on this show because it's not this show is not for the meandering of the mind. But I think with people need to really learn is how to leverage this stuff. Man, not kidding. It's seven twenty two in the morning and I made an app this morning. I did. I'm not really ready to release it yet, but I made an app this morning. It's a good one. It's it's not built around red beacon. Well, it's actually built around the red beacon a concept, but it's not about preparedness or anything like. That's very simple application and it just we need to nurture people's ideas. That's the most important thing I think we can do right now is nurture people's idea. What's your idea? Fuck, go crazy with your idea? What is your idea? Because you can literally type it into prompt and make it come to life. This is the pinnacle of where we're at right You have if you have an idea, whether you were three years old or eighty three years old. The way you use artificial intelligence right now and the way that we create a world where people are all high income or whatever or mostly right is you bring that idea to life and you monetize that idea and it looks beautiful and it can be simple but beautiful and effective and wonderful, and everybody likes it and everyone's happy. And you know, people get use out of your idea and your application or your creation or whatever it is. You know, there's a website out now called Meshi, and Meshi is an artificial intelligence that uses prompts to create three D prints. Literally prompts to create three D prints. You can tweak them, you can do what you want with them, but basically you can tell this prompt or create a prompt, tell this AI to you know, I want to if you got a little kid who loves some kind of action figure, television show that doesn't have action figures, YouTube show, whatever it is, you can just go coming. This was a dream of mine as a kid. This was like, like I can't even imagine what I would have done with a three D printer as a kid. But we've reached a point now where you can basically create whatever toy you want, whatever thing you want, whatever you want with a three d printer and meshi AI with Base forty four and an idea for an application that's going to help people, or a game or whatever. Checks from the government. It could be the worst outcome in the world of artificial intelligence. You know, two roads diverged in a wood and I I took the road less traveled by, and that's made all the difference in my life. Right, well, we're at the point where two roads are diverging in wood. Folks. You want to be an AI funded drone for the government or an entrepreneur. I mean it, This is what we're talking about. And now let's speak to the droning, right, because it's very easy, the droning and the droning off and the droning of warfare. And we're going to look to t. S Elliot today. We're not going to do any prepper tech. I'm going to keep the show short and light, not light heavy and short, so heavy topics right back to war wonderful government checks for all from the artificial intelligence robots, and if you step out of line, they'll give you your euthanasia free of charge. We're gonna read from Burt Norton today, which is one of the four quartets written by T. S. Eliot. We're in section three. Here are stands a three here of Burnt Norton, by the and only TS Eliot. And it is scary what technology can do. It is scary the effect the technology is having on us. All. We need to be wary. We need to put protections in place. We need to protect our children and our loved ones. It's just part of the deal, now, guys, is what it is. But I also want you to understand that this sort of apathy that this technology is building, it's not new. It is a condition of the human mind. It's just these companies are ruthless and have decided to take it as far as anyone's ever taken it before. Right, these technologies are capable of literally forced like drugs, forcing you to forego the things that you know you need, your body's needs, the things you need to do. Right, what's happening. It's preying on something that is very human though. So here is Burnt Norton stands at number three. Here is a place of disaffection time before and time after in a dim light, neither daylight, investing form with lucid stillness, turning shadow into transient beauty with slow rotation, suggesting permanence, nor darkness to purify the soul, emptying the sensual, with deprivation, cleansing affection from the temporal. Neither plenitude nor vacancy, only a flicker over the strained time ridden faces, distracted from distraction by distraction, filled with fancies and empty of meaning. Toumid apathy with no concentration. Men and bits of paper whirled by the cold wind that blows before war and after time, wind in and out of unwholesome lungs, time before and time after. This poem was written in early nineteen hundreds, before iPhone could have been a thing. But you heard the line. You heard the line that stands out. There are several lines, distracted from distraction by distraction, filled with fancies and empty of meaning, Men in bits of paper whirled by the cold wind that blows before and after time. Poetry is the distillation of the human condition, and it is the family tree that we all share. Please understand that. Please understand that, in your deepest woes, in your most unique and terrifying problem, a poet has articulated it five hundred years ago. It's not to downplay the issue. It's to remind you that we're on this plane together, and we've been on this plane together, and our ancestors have suffered the same sufferings that we suffer, and we've been distracted by distraction from distraction since as long as distraction was.
