I agree you do need a good idea of the type of person you believe would be right for you. I don't believe it needs to be written in stone, when you do meet someone it is only dating for sometime that you will begin to know if they are the right one for you. Having too many preconceived ideas of what you believe is right for you may result in dismissing someone who would have been ideal. It may be worth more thinking about the type of person you definitely don't want, and date those outside of that list, before deciding whether they are right for you. At the end of the day it is the compatibility of both parties, among other things, and an ability to compromise.

If it is for someone already in a relationship with someone else, it may cause nothing but heartache and pain.

Maybe it's The Matrix.

Thanks Zee, you have given us all something to think about, fully understand why you chose not to take up any AI training work, but as in the video, many already in work have no option. Again I believe it is going to take governments to take responsibility on how this all going to work out.

Here in the UK it was interesting to hear on a recent tv news item, that even when driverless cars are introduced, there will be the choice of requesting a taxi with a human driver, because not everyone is happy to use a driverless taxi.

INXS.

That is good news Zee and I agree we all need to keep an eye on this, and make our concerns known to our politicians.

Zee, this looks positive.

UK-Canada renewed AI security partnership
The United Kingdom and Canada announce a renewed AI security partnership

From:
Cabinet Office and The Rt Hon Kanishka Narayan MP. Minister of State (Minister for Artificial Intelligence)
Published:
13 October 2026

Thanks Zee. Seems more recent activity by the UK government in the recent appointment of a specific AI Minister.
This is an Interesting read, and good to see the focus on security of these advancing AI systems.

You are right, we should all be very concerned and keep an eye on what is happening in the AI industry.

This doesn't look so good.

We should all be remembering what happened in the 'Terminator 2: Judgement day' film, which is referred to in the book 'Thinking Machines'.
Extract from the book.

"In that movie we, the audience, are informed that the supercomputer 'Skynet' becomes 'self-aware' at exactly 2.14am Eastern time on the 4th August 1997. At 2.13am that day, computer users were presumably marvelling at the better-than-average
accuracy of their search engine results or the superior strategies employed by the AI-controlled enemies in 'Command and conquer:
Red Alert. (hey, this was 1997!). At 2.15am - KA-BOOM! Life as they knew it was over."


Interesting to note what happened in the film, happened very quickly, machines move quicker than humans, the nuclear war caused by Skynet in the film wiped out almost all of humanity.

Duran Duran.

Thanks Zee. Certainly very concerning on where this is all going to end up. Here in the UK we have an AI Minister, responsible for monitoring developments in the industry, but he has no control on what is happening outside of the UK. It is time we started to ask more questions, I'm afraid like most people outside the industry, trying to understand, to make sense of all this is not easy. It seems it is an industry very difficult to inspect, scrutinise in every detail, to determine if sufficient safety is in place, it is unlike the nuclear industry for example. I think you are absolutely right, more of us do need to raise our own concerns with politicians, and to know what they can do, and what they are doing about it.

I am reading a book entitled. "Thinking Machines" by Luke Dormehl, a technology writer, Penguin publication 2016.

It covers the history and development of AI from the beginning to 2016. Worth a read if interested in AI, particularly the history, it's not a technical text book.

There is a strong point made in the book by a British mathematician, Irving John Good, who had worked with Alan Turing during worldwar2 as a codebreaker.

An extract from the book,(page 227)

"In 1965, Good penned an essay where he theorised on what a superintelligent machine would mean for the world. He defined such an AI as a computer capable of far surpassing all the intellectual activities that make us intelligent. In a widely quoted passage, he wrote.

'Since the design of machines is one of those intellectual activities, an ultraintelligent machine could design even better machines, there would then unquestionably be an "intelligence explosion", and the intelligence of man would be left far behind . Thus the first ultraintelligent machine is the last invention that man need ever make'.

Good's essay - and the debate it stirred up - none the less carries an air of ambiguity. Is an ultraintelligent machine the last invention we need make because it will solve all
the problems we could ever conceivably face as a species, or is it our last because it will wipe us out entirely? We might gain some clues on Good's own perspective from his later work as a consultant on Stanley Kubrick's 2001 : A Space Odyssey, in which the 'smart' AI known as HAL 9000 turns murderous and starts killing off its human crew."

Not looking too good is it?
Have we reached that stage of an ultraintelligent machine, personally I don't think we are there yet, but definitely a time to think about how such a machine can be controlled, and I agree Zee, what our politicians should be doing about it.

Van Halen.

Probably woman power, forget it and move on there are a lot more women out there. Good luck in your search.

Ronettes, The.

Thanks again Zee, a very interesting interview video. I think the talk of the huge loss of jobs is very significant, how this would be managed requires government intervention in my opinion. Regarding these AIs hacking other computer systems, as the recent hack in Australia, the blame must fall on the producers of the AI, maybe heavy fines will sharpen up their safety measures, suddenly having to pay a few million dollars out in compensation would not go down well. These companies producing AIs need regulation, sadly it seems little is being done to do that right now.

We are all living with the threat of nuclear war, this is another threat we are all going to have to live with.
