They warn us that future artificial intelligence will wipe out humanity. This may be a lie with ulterior motives. Support independent research and analysis by joining my Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/thehatedone There is a powerful motivation to keep you thinking that AI is an existential threat. That we should treat it with the same level of urgency as a nuclear war or a global pandemic. And yet, we shouldn’t stop developing AI. We should accelerate it as fast as we can. As long as it’s the select few good guys that get to control it. We must not let AI fall into wrong hands. But there is a growing opposition to this movement. A conflict is arising. There is those that want to keep AI closed off and tightly controlled and those that want to leave it open and accessible to all. Even though both sides claim they are doing for humanity, only of them is right. This is an arms race for who gets to dominate AI development and who will be left out.

Due to my financial background following the first eight years of my career in banking, I can look at a business and spot the underlying reasons why a business is not profitable and has poor cash flow. I understand both sides of a business (the financial side and the business ownership side). More importantly, I know how to fix it so that the business can grow and become more profitable.

Take a moment to consider your financial situation: Are you better or worse off financially than you were a year ago? Do you think you'll be better off a year from now? And where do you see the country headed in the next five years? These are the kinds of questions used by the University of Michigan to calculate the Consumer Sentiment Index, an economic indicator measuring how people feel about the economy. "It's a measure that we can compare over time and get a pulse on the attitudes of consumers," said Joanne Hsu, director of the Surveys of Consumers at the University of Michigan. "Which is important given that consumer spending is over two-thirds of GDP." That survey and others show there is a pervasive sense of disconnect between the overall economic picture and how people feel about the economy. Despite slowing inflation, a healthy labor market with record-low unemployment, and stocks that remain in a bull market, consumer sentiment remains below pre-pandemic levels. "People don't tend to think in terms of inflation—economists do," said Paul Donovan, chief economist at UBS Global Wealth Management. "But economists are not normal. Normal people think in terms of price levels." Watch the video above to find out why consumer sentiment hasn't matched up with the economic reality, the factors behind the disconnect, and why the issue could play an outsized role in this year's U.S. presidential election.

“I’m an accidental guru.” He was irreverent, he was focused, he was one of the world’s most successful investors, and he was one of a kind. Billionaire investor Charlie Munger, the longtime right-hand man and close friend of Berkshire Hathaway CEO Warren Buffett, died a few weeks shy of what would have been his 100th birthday. Becky Quick, Squawk Box co-host, interviewed Munger two weeks before his death in his home in Los Angeles. In this special conversation, Charlie Munger reflects on his century of life, the childhood traumas that shaped him, the investing wins and losses that made his career, and the perspective and knowledge he gained in his final years. For more, revisit our 2021 Squawk Pod series, Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger: A Wealth of Wisdom. Squawk Pod is produced by Katie Kramer, Cameron Costa, Karoline Rouhotas and Zach Vallese. CNBC’s Managing Editor is Lacy O’Toole. John Lazration edited this podcast series.
