NEW EPISODE: ARE YOU A COMPUTER? I SURE AIN’T. THE AGE OF AI HAS BEGUN — AND WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT IT MEANSThe age of artificial intelligence is no longer coming — it is here.In this episode of NateCast, we ask the uncomfortable questions that too many politicians and tech billionaires avoid. From warnings by political leaders and religious voices alike, concern about AI is growing. What happens when technology this powerful is controlled primarily by private corporations with little public oversight? Who regulates it? Who profits from it? And what does AI mean for military power, surveillance, jobs, and human freedom?Why are massive data centers being proposed along the Niagara corridor and near communities already burdened by industrial history? After fighting major pollution battles before, including resistance to heavy industrial projects along the river, many residents are asking whether we are repeating old mistakes under a new technological label. Along the Niagara River and near the Tonawanda corridor, communities deserve answers about air quality, energy demand, and long-term environmental impact.Technology matters. National security matters. But so do neighborhoods, clean air, and democratic oversight.We also discuss rising tensions involving Iran and the growing fear that the United States may be drifting toward a dangerous military defeat. Could we be witnessing one of the most troubling strategic moments in American history? What would failure or escalation mean for ordinary people?Then we bring the conversation home to Western New York.This episode asks a simple question: Who is shaping the future — and who gets a say?#NateCast #ArtificialIntelligence #AI #NiagaraFalls #WesternNewYork #Iran #Technology #DataCenters #NiagaraRiver #Politics #Future #BernieSanders #Podcast #WNY #TechNews #Environment #Military #AIethics
