'Mission Impossible 7's' harrowing AND PROPHETIC message about artificial intelligence



Each film in the "Mission Impossible" franchise revolves around IMF agent Ethan Hunt (played by Tom Cruise) saving the world from some formidable foe. Sometimes that adversary is a deadly virus, other times a sinister terrorist, and in some cases a weapon of mass destruction.

The most recent film, "Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 1" (2023), is no different. It, too, features a daunting enemy that threatens the survival of humanity.

But this time, we’d be wise to pay close attention to the enemy, as it gives us a prescient warning of what is likely waiting for us in the near future.

“The movie makes a really, really good case,” Glenn says, “about what [artificial intelligence] will be like.”

For example, “it will know everything about you, it will be able to predict you because of companies like Google and Facebook” that are “collecting mountains of information,” he continues.

Even something as seemingly benign as a smart refrigerator “is collecting information on you” in order to “know exactly what you’ll do.”

Luckily, there’s a solution for the fictional characters in the film – simply “use the original code” to “reboot the system.”

But in reality, reining in the technological behemoth won’t be so simple.

In the words of Elon Musk, once we “[summon] the demon,” or develop technology capable of teaching itself, there’s a slim chance we’ll be able to regain control once it takes off.

Why can’t we just use the original code and reboot the system like in the film?

“Because it will know you’re going to try to do that,” Glenn shouts. It’s designed to predict your every move, meaning it will always be a step (or several steps) ahead of you.

“The fact is,” Stu adds, “even scientists, even people who have created AI … don’t even seem to know where this is going.”

And it’s undeniably true.

Some of the greatest minds of our current day have expressed hesitancy when it comes to AI.

Elon Musk said, “I think we should be very careful about artificial intelligence. If I were to guess what our biggest existential threat is, it’s probably that.”

Stephen Hawking also warned that “the development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race.”

Stu’s fears don’t end with the unstoppability of AI, though. He also is deeply concerned about what the left intends to “teach” the technology “at the recipe level.”

“They’re seeing this as a huge opportunity,” he warns.

Dark future: Unveiling society's transformation through AI



“Discrimination” may be a word used flippantly by the left, but that’s not stopping Justin Haskins from warning of the very real discrimination we all may face if the Great Reset goes as planned.

Haskins is the co-author of “Dark Future: Uncovering the Great Reset's Terrifying Next Phase” with Glenn Beck, in which they not only reveal the technologies and cultural changes that will cause an unprecedented level of disruption across the globe but offer a plan to combat it.

While those who have been paying attention likely know what the Great Reset is, fewer are aware of the “Great Narrative.” Haskins is changing that.

“Essentially, the idea behind the Great Narrative is, ‘We need a new story, a new narrative, a new way of thinking about the world, to prepare the world for this transformation that is coming,’” Haskin explains to Stu Burguiere.

He dives a little deeper, explaining that the Great Narrative is essentially the core of the Great Reset — all of the tools and mechanisms for reshaping society, like social credit scores and ESG, coupled with emerging technologies that will disrupt the way the world runs.

That coupling would allow a global government to easily discriminate any individual for their beliefs or political history.

“You can pick individuals out and say, ‘You are the problem. You, the individual person who said this terrible thing on social media, who is clearly a Trump supporter,’” Haskin explains.

When you have this kind of technology, “you can tie that to a score.”

“That makes it really easy to punish or reward people, which is what ESG is. And then you have the technology to sift through that and to do it on a wide scale,” Haskins adds, warning, “you can discriminate in a way that was never possible before.”

Though people have been taught to fear a violent, “blood-thirsty,” authoritarian government over a seemingly benevolent one, this technology changes what needs to be done to exert total control over a population.

“You don’t need these kinds of giant crackdowns, jackboot stormtroopers. You just need the right system in place,” Haskins continues.

“Once they figured out that controlling the money, having social credit scores, and controlling technology — those three things together — give you everything they ever wanted without having to kill anybody. That’s when all of this really ran loose,” he adds.
