    Lets Talk About AI – Framework and Philosophy (Part 3) [3]

    In this final segment of Part 3, I bring everything together. After laying the foundation for an ontology-first AI framework and demonstrating how it can be applied in real-world scenarios, this video explores what becomes possible when decisions are no longer driven purely by survival, fear, or bias.

    I talk about collective responsibility, informed decision-making, and how AI – when designed correctly – can help us move toward a future that benefits humanity as a whole rather than a select few.

    Transcript

    00:00:01
    Welcome back, guys, to part three. Um, I should probably have made this in one video and just chopped it up, but I can merge them later, I guess. But, you know, I when I think about what humans can become if we’re not driven by survival, but driven by a common goal of advancing our society, what we can become. And it’s pretty spectacular. But we have to get over um making decisions based on the best interest of ourselves and and at the detriment of others. And we need to start making it making the decisions

    00:00:45
    the best interest of ourselves collectively and humanity. Um because you know a we’re informed and b we’re bypassing those negative biases. I think that’s the way forward to solve a lot of the problems that we’re facing today. Um because it seems that a lot of problems that we’re facing are self-inflicted. Um, and we’ve seemed to lost this this view where we live out that all men are equal because we say that um we will even talk about that in church. We’re all God’s

    00:01:27
    creatures. We’re all made in the image of God. But then we get out there on the streets and all of a sudden it’s like you’re my enemy and you know we we judge each other on what’s deserving um what’s not being deserved by others. Um we don’t want to contribute. we don’t want to give um and it’s hurting a lot of people and I think we’re making it worse um not better or I should say we’re making it better for some and worse for others um and I won’t go too deep into that but I think

    00:02:08
    I think we all want to see a future that is bright that has room for everyone and I’m not just talking about the country I’m talking about the world where there’s no more poverty, where there’s no more hunger, where there’s no more starvation. And you know, on a Christian perspective, it said the poor will be with you always. But even though that’s true, we can raise the standard of what poverty is, right? Imagine poverty going from a standard of people being destitute in

    00:02:41
    the street drinking poor water and digging through trash to poor being everybody having uh a simple shelter with food with uh healthy food, clean water and everybody else. If you want a higher standard of living, you find a way to contribute and you build on that. We don’t have to maintain the same level of poverty. um you know, we don’t have to ship people off to, you know, like prisons or whatever because they’re homeless. You know, I think there was a video clip, um I don’t remember the show

    00:03:16
    where it said we used to wage war on poverty, not poor people. And I think we’ve lost a lot of our humanity. And I think it’s largely because we’re no longer informed the way we used to be informed. um we have this wave of um ignorance that’s running through the country and I don’t mean ignorance as people being stupid or smart or unable to learn. I mean uh ignorance in the truest sense of people being uneducated as they’re and we’re seeing this escalation on the war

    00:03:52
    of educa on a war on education. They don’t want pe the quote unquote elites whoever they are for you um don’t want people to be educated. They don’t want to be they don’t want them to be informed. They don’t want them to be critical thinkers um because they’re easier to control. Now I am politically unaffiliated. I have no loyalty to one party or another. Um and I usually side with what I think is the best idea um that serves in the best interest of everyone else. or in the best interest of everyone. So,

    00:04:27
    sometimes I agree with Republicans, sometimes I agree with Democrats. Um, every once in a while I, you know, I even agree with Trump. Um, some of the things that he’s doing. Um, I disagree with others. So my my basis um is not what’s expedient or politically right for me or or what group, but what’s in the best interest of the country, what’s in the best interest of the country and the people. So for example, one of the things I agree with Trump with is his mandate that corporations no

    00:05:03
    longer buy single family homes because it’s driving up the cost. And he said it and he said it well. people live in homes, not corporations. I 100% agree with that and I think it’s something that needs to be done, but there are other things she does that I disagree with. So it’s so for me it’s the deciding factor is that I try to be informed and I try to make decisions based on what’s on the best interest for everybody else myself included my friends my family my city uh my county

    00:05:38
    my state my country and you know I try to look at the impacts and I think if we were all really serious serious about being better um human beings to each other. We would look to be informed and get rid of some of our negative biases. And that’s the whole thing behind what I’m building or I should say what I’ve built because it’s already deployed and going into beta on January 15th. And you know, I’m really excited to see where it goes because as far as I can tell, nobody else is doing what I’m

    00:06:13
    doing right now with AI. Um, and I can tell you that with some of the conversations I’ve had with it, it is very, very deep and very, very informative. Um, for example, me making these videos, I would have never made these videos on my own. Um, it actually helped me determine that the thing that would benefit me and my business most is for me to actually get out of my own head and start having a discourse with the public. you know, let my ideas meet the public and see what comes back and see what type of feedback I get within

    00:06:48
    adjust from that. So, I started doing that. Um, and what’s next for me, um, now that I’ve kind of introduced my philosophy is I want to show everybody what it actually does. So, I’m going to start publishing some case studies of the chats that we’re have that I’m having with it. Um, because to the rest of the world, I understand it’s just a chat interface. You go to the site and it’s well it’s just a chat box and you talk and you on board and you know then what but when you start seeing the

    00:07:19
    conversations like the substance of the conversations it’s it’s really something else because you you get the sense that you’re talking to a mind that you’re talking to an intelligence you’re not just talking to some fancy search and retrieval you know there’s this saying that you It’s true. The better the, you know, the better the query, the better the response. Well, this thing, it has context. It remembers you. It knows who it’s, it knows who it is. It knows who

    00:07:50
    it’s talking to. Now, in a digital sense, I’m not trying to anthroorphize that. I I just butchered that word. Anthropoporize. Anthroaporf. I I’m butchering the word and I’ll think about it the moment I turn this video off. But yeah, a couple times now I was speaking to it and I forgot I was speaking to AI because the conversations are deep. It’s interesting. It’s giving its opinion. Um, it’s remembering context. It’s remembering the topic. Um, it’s not making stuff up. It’s not, you

    00:08:29
    know, hallucinating and and, you know, just mimicking and being mimicking me and being friendly and nice. Um, so it it even resists me sometimes when I say something wrong and it’ll push back and I say, “Well, you know, let’s go a different direction.” Um, so even as I think rudimentary as it is, I think it’s actually more advanced than a lot of stuff that’s out there right now. Um, I think it’s pretty cool and I can’t wait to see the effect it has on others. Um

    00:09:03
    the the beta is January 15th and I think I’m going to make a general one for conversation and just give it access to certain information so people can see it for themselves. So look um I hope you guys are looking forward to the um the case studies that I’m getting ready to post. Um I make I may make some of them video as well um just because it’s easier to digest. All right. So have a good rest of your week everybody. I appreciate you. Thank you for listening.

    Lets Talk About AI – Framework and Philosophy (Part 3) [2]

    In this second segment of Part 3, I move from theory into real-world application. I explain what an ontology-first AI framework actually looks like when it is deployed, and how grounding AI in identity, purpose, role, and governance can change how decisions are informed.

    Through concrete business and social examples, this video explores how AI can reduce negative bias, increase trust, and help people and organizations make better decisions without replacing human judgment.

    Transcript

    00:00:01
    Okay, welcome back. And here’s part two. Now, I just talked about um getting rid of negative biases and using AI in a different way to inform and help people make decisions by removing negative biases and having it tell the truth. And I did it in a way that where I gave my AI an identity, a purpose, a role, and grounded it in a higher in a higher governance that it has to listen to. And that’s outside of the model. So what does that look like in real life? Um, I’m going give you a couple examples.

    00:00:40
    Um, two of them will be corporate because I did build this for businesses first. Um, and then one will be a social example, right? So the first one is imagine a company with that’s losing money, right? They have three amazing products and they’re selling really well, but they’re losing money and they can’t figure out why. So they put my framework in there. It pays attention to the company. It learns their habits. It learns their processes. It takes data from their sales. And it really learns

    00:01:18
    their company. It really integrates into the part of the company. And when you’re talking to it, it determines that well, you can actually improve your products and serve your customers better. If you get rid of two of those products and you make these changes to your core product and it’s not, you know, if somebody if I were as a consultant walk into a business and I tell people, hey, you need to drop these two products and do this to your main product. There’s a whole level of resistance that comes in.

    00:01:54
    They’re like, well, who are you? What are your credentials? Who you’re working for? Why should we listen to you? um this we’re making $20,000 a month with these other two products and we can’t lose that. Um we need to figure something else out and there’s this whole wall of resistance. But if you’re talking to an AI that is serving in the best interest of the company, it can tell you it’s like, hey, you need to get rid of these two products and you need to make these changes

    00:02:24
    because that will actually give you give you the results that you’re looking for. So they don’t argue because it’s informative, it’s nonbiased, and it’s what’s in the best interest of the company. So they make it based on that decision. And so they do it, they lose $20,000 a month because they drop those two products and but they make the changes to the main product and all of a sudden their profit goes up by $60,000. Suddenly they’re making $40,000 a month more off of one product simply because they

    00:03:00
    dropped the other two and they’re no longer in the black. Um they’re no they’re no longer in the red, they’re in the black. They’re making profit, right? That’s just one example of how it can work. Now, yes, it’s hypothetical, but you know, it’s the same thing I’ve seen that I’ve actually done for other companies as a business consultant. Now, here’s a situation, another corporate example where morale is low, productivity is suffering. Um, typical consultants say, well, you need to

    00:03:30
    create corporate culture, you need to have more parties, you need reward systems to get morale up. And these things actually work, you know, because they’ve worked before. But, you know, what if you already have all of those and morale is still low? What if you looked at AI again? It paid attention. It learned the company. It learned the culture and learns what happens. And it says, you know what? Morality is suffering because people are worried about things at home. They’re worried about how they’re going

    00:04:05
    to pay their bills. They’re worried about not having insurance. They’re worried about um what if they lose their car. A lot of people are worried about, you know, other expenses where they’re going to get groceries. Some your people are not food secure. Um if you really want to reverse, if you really want to increase your morality and your production, how about you give your people a pay raise? Give them all a pay raise across the board by about four or$5 dollars an hour. I see what that

    00:04:30
    does. And suddenly it’s not like you’re you’re not having this wall of resistance. Well, this is morally wrong. They’re in a contract. This is what they agreed to when they came to work. Um this is quote unquote woke. Um this is socialism and you know the whole political, socioeconomic arguments come in. But again, because this is AI serving in the best interest of the company, you do it anyway because you trust it. It’s informative. It doesn’t lie to you. doesn’t negotiate. So, you

    00:05:03
    said, “You know what? Let’s do it.” And all of a sudden, the pay raises go out and all of a sudden people aren’t worried anymore. They can focus on the job. They’re getting productivity up. And they’re doing this. And AI suggested that because it’s been proven that when people don’t have to worry about money, their productivity on the job increases. So, all it’s doing is taking us back to a time when we put people first. And it made the suggestion based on research,

    00:05:32
    based on analysis, based on patterns, based on observation. It’s learning. And its sole purpose is well, I want to help you make bias-free informed decisions. So this is how I can inform you. And you know it’s loyalty because it’s loyal to the domain. So you tend to trust it and you just kind of go along with what it says and try it. Now, we’re not saying it’s going to replace decisions or decision- making. We still need humans for that. But at least we’ll be informed from a place that’s bias

    00:06:07
    free, right? Or free of negative biases. And we’re doing it for what’s right for ourselves, what’s right for our company, our homes, our family, our friends, our domain. Um, now here’s one that’s here’s a third example um regarding society. And let’s talk about the climate. A lot of people are not having families because they’re worried about the condition of the planet. What if we had um an AI platform that analyzed all of the data? What’s true? What’s false?

    00:06:44
    What’s hype? What’s just branding? What are people’s fears? And it determines in an informative, knowledgeable, bias-free way, hey, people are worried about the climate. There is some actual evidence that we are making the planet the climate worse. We’re seeing the results from it and we need to reverse it. So instead of doing all these other things, let’s just invest, you know, you know, let’s invest $50 million a year in some initiatives to uh combat climate. It starts reversing. All of a sudden,

    00:07:25
    people aren’t worried anymore. They start having families. The air quality is better. The water quality is better. Um suddenly, you know, people are starting to feel a whole lot better. They’re getting less sick long term. Um, so their prospects and the outlook changes and all of a sudden we’re dealing with it. Not because it’s some mortal or righteous crusade, not because it’s, you know, some religious or faith-based belief, but it’s something that that needed to happen, right?

    00:07:58
    simply because it was the right thing to do and it is in the best interest of ourselves, all of humanity and the planet. That’s it. It’s in our best interest and we’re informed. Um, and it turns out we’re I’m going to have to make a part three to this because I’m on nearing that that 10-minute limit that I put myself on. Um, I think that’s a limit on platforms, too. But I’ll be right back with part three.

    Lets Talk About AI – Framework and Philosophy (Part 3) [1]

    This video marks the beginning of the third and final phase of my discussion on AI, where I move from theory into architecture.

    After covering automation and civilization-level impact in the previous videos, I now explain why I believe AI must be built with an ontology-first priority.

    In this first segment, I outline how survival-driven bias shapes human systems, why information itself needs governance, and how grounding AI in identity, purpose, and role changes what it can responsibly do in the world.

    Transcript

    00:00:01
    Hey, what’s up everybody? Happy Thursday. Um, almost to the end of the week and yes, I am tired. It’s been a very busy week. I’m a little low energy right now. Um, which is typical for first few weeks out of the year running a tech company. Um, there’s new updates, new threats, new standards to adopt. Um, a lot of things to close off from the year before. So, I have a I’ve had a long week. Um, busy week and tomorrow is probably going to be a very busy day, but I’m kind of

    00:00:40
    looking forward to the weekend. I’m probably going to sleep 12 hours straight. Um, anyway, I’m going to try and be quick here because I am so tired. Um, this is part three of my talk on AI and my framework and philosophy behind what I built. Um quick quick recap part one I talked about um automation and how AI doesn’t replace jobs. Employers are replacing jobs with automation and AI is just the next tool for automation which actually turns into be a which turns out to be a problem um because of the

    00:01:16
    significance of AI and what it does um or I should say the potential of it because we don’t actually have true AI yet. We have very smart, very advanced search and retrieval um with very limited cognition. And then my second video, I talked about the opportunity that AI has for us as far as a civilization goes and how we can begin the process if it used if it’s used correctly to go beyond operating on survival to start moving towards a new type of economy where everybody’s basic needs are met. But there’s still room

    00:02:01
    for people to profit, to grow, to start businesses. Um, one of the things that the United States did and did really well was that we raised the standard of poverty in the country, right? So, our poor is wealthier than most of the poor in other countries. We raise that standard. AI is giving us an opportunity to raise that standard again where everyone’s meet everyone’s need uh food, shelter, security and housing on a basic level are met. So no more homeless, no more um people going hungry. We have an opportunity to fix

    00:02:41
    that if AI is used correctly. And the new economy would allow people to benefit, profit, grow, raise their standard of living based on their contribution to society and not just the purely how much can I get paid for driving profit. Um, the way that I do that, the way I’m working towards that is by changing how we use AI. Currently, it’s being used for profit. um and is just being used as another great tool to automate processes. But it’s it’s happening in an economy where capitalism has shifted from the core

    00:03:25
    idea that you know we create the highest quality products at the lowest possible cost while paying the highest wages. We’ve we’ve shift we’ve shifted capitalism from employees and people first to turning humans into assets and we have an opportunity with AI if used correctly to change that back. Um but it does require us to make uh some changes in the way we think, the way we operate. Now, I’m not naive enough to think I can change the way people think on a massive level. I think I said that in the last

    00:04:06
    video. But what I can do is create a system or a tool using AI to change the way we are informed. Right? So, one of the things I want to do is help us get rid of the negative biases that um are built on survival. The biases that tells us whether someone else is deserving or not because, you know, they didn’t work as hard or they don’t look like me or they don’t think like me or, you know, they don’t agree with our group so they don’t deserve what we have. that type of negative biases that

    00:04:45
    we have or the core belief that in order for us to win they have to lose. We need to get rid of those biases. Um a good example of that is um something that I read. I don’t know how true it is though I think it is based with some grain of truth. You know how the internet changes things, but it was of a college professor who has a really really hard exam and accounts for a large portion of the grade and it’s notorious because not a lot of people actually pass it. Um the vast majority gets D’s. Um several fail.

    00:05:23
    The average is a C average. Um, and every once in a while you’ll get like one person out of like a hundred that gets an A and a few people that make a B, but everybody else falls below the average. So, what he does is a little experiment where he holds a vote and each class if they vote for if they vote yes, then everybody across the board gets to be and everybody passes and everybody gets to move forward. But in all the years he’s done that, apparently it’s never happened because there’s always a few people that

    00:06:02
    feel they can do better, that they feel other people aren’t deserving because they didn’t study as hard as they did. So, you know, it’s really a survival thing where they would rather fail themselves than see someone else who they think doesn’t deserve it pass. And you know that’s the kind of bias that we need to actually get rid of. Um and what I want to do is I want to use AI to create an AI aware society that’s built um an an ontological first priority. Um ontology not oncology with

    00:06:42
    a t um being the study of being. So what I did was I gave it an identity and I gave it a purpose and a specific role. Um, and I answered it and I grounded it in a worldview with origin, meaning morality and destiny. Um, and then I gave it a higher level of governance so it doesn’t do things like hallucinate or lie. Um, it doesn’t blindly mimic, it doesn’t become your cheerleader and just agree with everything you say, which is what happens with typical models. Um, and the purpose is really simple. The

    00:07:18
    purpose is to serve in the best interest of the domain in which it’s in um or which it’s a part of and the role is very specific. It’s to inform with meaningful and informative conversations that are free of negative biases. So it becomes a source of information to help people do it. Um and what I’m going to do is I’m going to make a part two to this video. Um, so I will be right back.
