00:00 I think it's crazy dangerous, honestly

00:02 Would I let AI take over if I didn't have to work?

00:05 Would I like AI to take over if it means that, no, I'd be bored out my tree?

00:12 I don't even know if somebody's writing me a love letter

00:14 or that artificial intelligence is writing a love letter

00:16 I'd be stobby at work

00:18 Sorry, I don't know how to answer that one

00:20 I'd be bored out, I would...

00:23 What would you do, would you, if you didn't go to work?

00:25 Right, I should get a shot of this, right

00:27 So we're doomed as a nation, as a world

00:30 There's too many psychopaths that government run

00:33 that are like dictating what we are

00:35 No, well I mean I work as a postdoctoral researcher

00:38 at Strathclyde Uni, so

00:40 I mean, I see the value in AI for things like, you know, data analytics

00:45 but would I let it take over my job? No

00:47 At the end of the day, what is happening is

00:49 we are just getting bombarded with people dictating to us

00:53 It's a dictatorship all the time

00:55 No, I mean you have to go to work to do this, aren't you?

00:57 Even if it's not the best job in the world

00:59 you still have to, well you don't have to do it

01:01 but it gets you out of the house, it's as simple as that

01:03 It's all greed and moral orientated

01:05 and we just live in peace and harmony

01:07 Like, I'm not like world peace and all that stuff

01:10 It's like, just get on with it, do your job, do your thing

01:12 but there's too many people trying to, I don't even know

01:15 No, I'm already thinking about it happening too much

01:18 It's got an ingress in our department already

01:20 so I'm quite worried about it if I'm honest with you

01:23 Like, the world is bombarded, it's crazy

01:25 The world is, see if you're not going to

01:27 Sex trafficking, child trafficking

01:29 and computers and all the rest of it
