Welcome back to the Loopcast. It's Tom, Eric and Josh. The Loopcast brought to you by the Loop. Of course, every American Catholic favorite morning newsletter. Good morning, everyone. Have a great show prepared for you today. We have AI 2027. Now, I'm very curious to get Josh's thoughts on this. Eric and I have been pretty much nonstop talking about this crazy plan for super intelligence to overtake humans

in the year 2027. So there's a whistleblower, Daniel Kokateo, who started this initiative

basically to give predictions. A lot of some have actually come true at this point. So we're going to

be covering that in its entirety and getting, Eric, I believe you went and saw what priests had to say

about the printing press, correct? I went into a little church history of other revolutions and technology. So I have a little background. Only the loopcast. So we have that. We also have some very nerdy political questions to ask Josh, one specifically about Brian Birch here. Some good news, hopefully advancing a little bit technical. So I want to get the full Josh.

This is good news. Good news. Going to make him wait. And then the final one, we have doctor of the church, John Henry Newman, soon to come. Very excited about that. Another very in the wheelhouse of Erica topic. I was like, just fire me up on John Henry Newman. It seemed like one of those things. Everyone was excited about. So we're going to be covering that as well. Good news, Twilad Zone. We'll see if we can pass the

presidential fitness test. I will test the loopcast on that, potentially the audience. So all that to come. But before you want, if you want to help us out, just go ahead and leave a review over on Spotify, Apple Podcasts. Those help us out a lot. And then go check out YouTube. We have Erica's deep dives there.

We have the show three times a week.

And then I'm going to be hitting the road doing some time of the wild stuff.

So if you want to be prepared for all of that, go ahead and subscribe on YouTube. That is the hub. You can hang out the live chat here at 11 a.m. Monday, Wednesday, Friday. We got all the livers in there today.

Great to see you guys.

But I'd say without further ado, we get into it.

So I'm going to share

this nifty website, AI 2027. So this came on my radar actually separate than this, but there's a

fantastic interview done by. We talk about Mofton, Ross Duthat over at interesting times. Great

show. But he sat down with this guy, Daniel Kokateo, and he's one of the authors of this Project 27. And according to him, and it's funny, every time during the interview, he's like, it's tough to predict the future, it's tough to predict the future, kept caveating. But he's like, I'm pretty confident this is the path we're going to see with AI to the year 2027. And the website's interesting. It actually has like an interactive kind of like

chart basically to when we basically will surpass human intelligence. It's all very spooky. But I will

say at this point definitely worth talking about. So to start off just to give a general sense

of where this is all going, and then I think there's

some really interesting philosophical questions that come. But his prediction is that in the next

few years, AI will take over computer programming and software engineering first. Coding will

become automated because AI is so intelligent, the production will accelerate exponentially.
