Let's talk about the moment your side hustle becomes a real business. Now I see way too many founders stay stuck running their business like it's a hobby. And then they wonder why nothing ever feels real. It doesn't feel real because it's not. I've helped thousands of entrepreneurs build real businesses through Impact Theory University. And the first step in the path to building a legit business is registering it. And Tailor Brands will help you do just that in a few clicks. An LLC, a Limited Liability Company, is an official business structure. It's inexpensive to form and very simple to maintain. It's how you open a business bank account. It's how customers know they're dealing with a real company. And Tailor Brands doesn't stop at the filing. Their dashboard tracks what comes next based on what your business actually needs. So EIN number, registered agent, licenses and permits, bookkeeping, business banking. I tell every founder the same thing. Just make it official. Click the link in the show notes to check out Tailor Brands and get started on your business today. This is a paid advertisement. Good morning, everybody. Welcome to another episode of the Tom Bilyeu Show Live. This one is going to be wild. This weekend was crazy. The battle for the future of AI has gone completely nuclear and the implications are absolutely massive. This is one of the most important decisions we are going to make as a species. Dario Amodei, the CEO of Anthropic, wrote an essay saying we need to slow AI development down and it literally lit the Internet on fire. The response from some of the most important voices in the world, not just talking online, I mean in the world, world leaders, tech giants, all of them has become the biggest story in the world right now.

And while that situation is raging and we're going to go into it very deeply today, the situation in the Middle East continues just to get more insane by the minute. The Saudis are rumored to be courting everyone including, take a deep breath everybody, Israel to help them take care of the Houthis and rescue the Bab el-Mandab Strait.

That is getting crazy. All this disruption plus the war in Russia is sending the cost of diesel into the stratosphere. And that underlies a lot of other things. And so you can expect to see that inflation working its way into the system. And things could get worse and people realize this winter, things are so bad. Trump warned Zelensky directly to stop hitting Russia so hard. That was unexpected. Plus, birthright citizenship is proving to be a bigger issue than people understand as evident surfaces of a Chinese billionaire paying American women to have somewhere between 100 and 300 surrogate babies for him. Many of them didn't know who was really behind all of this, which is wild unto itself. And the Lindsay Clancy firestorm just will not die down as the jurors admit live on camera that they had political motives.

That is nuts. But if you want to talk about the craziest thing happening right now, you've got to talk about what's going on in AI. The biggest brains in American AI are saying we've got to slow development down or risk AI killing us all. I wish that was hyperbole, but that is exactly what's going on.

China has just completely noped out of this, opting to press forward, and Bernie took the bait, further attempting to destroy the US, this is me commentary here, in his continued attempts at authoritarian power grabs. At all times, that man wants more and more and more, as so many people in the government do, and that is a central part of what we're going to be talking about today, is boys and girls, do you really want to give more power to the same people that helped you through COVID? Remember how they act in times of public panic, they will power grab and they want more and more control. And I can think of no more fancy or effective of a weapon for authoritarians than AI.
