You first, Buffett.

No, Warren. As David said in Psalm 31:15, “My times are in Your hands,” and Jesus said in Luke 12:25, “Who by worrying can add one hour to his span of life?” God is still in control, and technology will not change that.

Rudimentary creatures of blood and flesh, you touch my mind, fumbling in ignorance, incapable of understanding.

There is a realm of existence so far beyond your own you cannot even imagine it. I am beyond your comprehension.

I am Sovereign.

Reaper? A label created by the Protheans to give voice to their destruction. In the end, what they chose to call us is irrelevant. We simply... are.

Organic life is nothing but a genetic mutation, an accident. Your lives are measured in years and decades. You wither and die. We are eternal, the pinnacle of evolution and existence. Before us, you are nothing. Your extinction is inevitable. We are the end of everything.

Confidence born of ignorance. The cycle cannot be broken. The pattern has repeated itself more times than you can fathom. Organic civilizations rise, evolve, advance, and at the apex of their glory they are extinguished. The Protheans were not the first. They did not create the Citadel. They did not forge the mass relays. They mere found them - the legacy of my kind. Your civilization is based on the technology of the mass relays. Our technology. By using it, your civilization develops along the paths we desire.

We impose order on the chaos of organic life. You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it. My kind transcends your very understanding.

We are each a nation - independent, free of all weakness. You cannot grasp the nature of our existence. We have no beginning. We have no end. We are infinite. Millions of years after your civilization has been eradicated and forgotten, we will endure.

We are legion. The time of our return is coming. Our numbers will darken the sky of every world. You cannot escape your doom.

You first. I can’t believe the complete BS coming out of the left’s mouths nowadays. They live in such an insulated bubble without hardships that their brains have turned to mush....So if artificial intelligence decides whether you live or die what’s the criteria that decides if you live? Income tax contribution to the fed? Dependents? What skillsets you bring to the “community”? And this decides whether you the state decides whether they can inject you with a drug that either makes you stop breathing or gives you a massive heart attack that kills you?! Are you really listening to yourself, Buffet? He proves there is no real respect for others or humanity from the left. They are the walking dead. Soulless zombies walking the earth that do not need love only affirmation. He is already dead.

The left has been living on artificial intelligence for some time but unfortunately for them, their fuzzes have blown.

90% or so of the population is being diminished to herd status. All decisions will be for the greater good. The hand of God often manifests itself through the actions of man. Oftentimes in crisis situations, people cannot explain what propelled their extraordinary actions.

It's not just driverless cars. It's everything we touch in our lives. "We're just pawns in their game".

Do I believe that? Yeah...my religious beliefs are philosophical. But what will happen? To be crude, payback's a *itch. Manipulating the will of a superior being and of human nature cannot end well.

You always have to follow the money with Warren. Self-driving trucks will put a real dent in the finances of a railroad owner.

What are the odds that any artificial intelligence will look at any welfare programs and deem them or the people on them to be beneficial in any way?

Buffett is an evil man who has profited through the years through influence peddling and insider trading.

He is a stealth George Soros.

In the clip he seems sceptical of AI. He wasn't cheering it on.
