The Highwire with Del Bigtree - AI, NANOTECH AND THE FUTURE OF MEDICINE

Episode Date: February 3, 2025

Imminent milestones in medical technology may be moving too fast for comfort with legislation creating laws to allow AI to replace doctors and prescribe drugs, the FDA proposing AI perform drug safety testing, and new nanotechnology used to control the brains of lab mice remotely. Will the new health paradigm shift from the MAHA movement help slow these frightening developments?Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-highwire-with-del-bigtree--3620606/support.

This is why it's extremely important for a paradigm change. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. really represents that in the medical community because things are moving extremely fast at every single level. And I want to just run through some of these levels that we're talking about of rapid change. Now, the Department of Justice has just put forth accusations against Walgreens. What do Walgreens do? Well, you know, you and I have been reporting on an opioid crisis. Opioids are flooding the streets. Doctors are writing prescriptions.

and the pharmacists have the opportunity to not let these out on the streets, not Walgreens. This is what it says. DOJ sues Walgreens alleges it filed millions of illegal prescriptions. It says the suit announced on January 17th alleges the pharmacy chain violated the Controlled Substances Act by knowingly filling prescriptions without a legitimate medical purpose and also violated the False Claims Act by seeking reimbursement from federal health care programs for these prescriptions. So on the front end, they were giving away like candy on the back end. were charging the government. So they were double dipping here at no legitimate reason for these. I remember during the COVID response that people were trying to get Ivermectin for a legitimate

reason. Right. Same pharmacist stolen out these opioids are saying you can't have this. With a doctor's note from real doctors saying Ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, Budacin, whatever it was, I'm sorry we can't fill that prescription here. If you're a drug addict with no doctor's note, we'll give you oxycontr right now if you want it. You want that? Well, no, I actually am trying to get over COVID. Right. You know what I mean? Like it's insane. And why did they do that? Because of the regulatory agencies.

You see here, I took these screenshots from the time. The CDC 2021, do not prescribe ivermectin, it says, to treat COVID-19. The FDA, same time period, why you should not use ivermectin to treat or prevent COVID-19. The regulatory agencies were really holding that up. But now let's move into the artificial. By the way, just to repeat, the FDA finally said when being sued. Yes. We never told you ivermectin didn't work.

Right. So, I mean, they're not standing by it. they're in a courtroom, they've totally recanted that they were that forceful in their rebuke of ivermectin. So, and why? I mean, why change your, you believe it? Where was the science? You don't have science to bring in the courtroom, but that's, but that's another story.

Exactly. Yeah, there it is. You are not a horse. You're not a caliscerous. You all stop it. They brought it to court and said, what do you mean you weren't, you know, stopping the use of ivermectin? This is what you were doing right there.

So I mean, it's, yeah. And this is why, back to Elizabeth Warren, people. from the outside, people that are trying to sue these regulatory agencies because government's not doing what they're supposed to do. This is why that's so important. So when Elizabeth Warren grandstands about Kennedy or anybody else trying to force change, this is actually a positive thing until it can happen from within the inside. So the FDA is, the FDA and also legislators are moving to create laws. I'm going to talk about artificial intelligence because this thing's moving very fast in the medical system. So we obviously have doctor shortages for several reasons. We have a paradigm where doctors can't even practice the way they want to practice. The doctor-patient relationship has a lot of issues with the government getting between that.

That may all change because check this out. New law would allow AI, artificial intelligence, to replace your doctor and prescribe drugs. This is what we're looking at right now. And it should be terrifying to everybody. But it goes a little further. The FDA, not just a law now, the FDA is proposing a frank. to advance what they call the credibility of AI models used for drug and biological product submissions. And you look into that, and they do talk about safety testing.

So not only do we have, you know, this current paradigm of safety testing that brought us a lot of big question marks around vaccine safety, but now these same people are going to load the system with all the known data and tell us, we just push a button and it's safe for you. Go ahead and take it. You know, I'm not so sure. I'm so terrified of this. First of all, I've been saying recently, as I've been saying, as I look at it. look at AI is about to change health as we know it. I think, you know, as they make, as the FDA,

they're obviously pushing the direction to get around HIPAA or whatever issues they're dealing with with having an AI tell you what to do or prescribe drugs. But let's be honest, I think doctors are going to be laid off at massive numbers. I think there'll be one of the biggest industries that will collapse under the pressure of AI first. And I believe doctors have done this to themselves. They've really just reduced themselves to drug pushers, or at least their education system has. they don't really diagnose anything anymore. I mean, what they say is, or they go, sounds like you have blah, blah, blah, and there's a drug for it.

Got a drug for you. If all you're doing is giving drugs, and all you're doing is basically playing Dr. Google, you're not really listening to the patient, 15 minutes, want a drug, 15 minutes. Oh, you can't sit still in school? You know, here's some ADD, ADHD medication. Oh, you're feeling a little depressed, blah, blah, blah, blah,

you know, depressed. Here is, you know, an SSRI. This is all doctors become. I'm sure AI is capable of doing that. I mean, if it's literally just going to say, what did pharmacists say we're supposed to give you? AI can do that very easily. So I think doctors have made themselves irrelevant.

And AI is about to take advantage of that. And so it does get scary when AR starts doing studies. But then I ask myself, I mean, if there's real human beings in those studies, maybe they'll actually analyze the data instead of burying it. I mean, are you going to get the AI? It's sorry. No, no, no. Burry that.

Forget that death just to happen. Don't let them say, will AI lie for you? I mean, that's another question I keep asking myself with all of this. Right. And how accurate is it right now? Well, we have a couple questions on next. I want to go to this next headline. Eating disorders, eating disorder helpline takes down its chat bot after it promotes, well,

disordered eating. So we put that on a bigger level of safety of medication. We've got some question marks here. But now I want to go into really, we're going to keep pulling back here. We're going to go kind of interesting with these studies. So we're talking about artificial intelligence. Also in that conversation, floating around is also nanotechnology, implanted, planted nanotechnology in the bodies.

And in 2021, we had a study that came out, and it was really kind of a new study and novel study. And a lot of the control of animals, that's always been a kind of a pie in the sky dream, is we can control a biological system with computers. And here's the headline, or the study title, non-contact, long-range magnetic stimulation of mechanosensitive ion channels and freely moving animals. Well, that's pretty crazy. but that was built upon.

Freedly moving animals can be basically moved around if you find a way to move their ion channels. If you find a way to stimulate their brain, we can control these animals. Well, that was a theory, but now this new study, in vivo magnetogenetics, now in vivo, that is in the animal. Magnetogenetics is a new term for a lot of people for cell type specific targeting. So that's right down to the cellular level and modulation of brain circuits. That's a fancy way. and I'm going to translate that to saying this. This is a headline says it pretty simply.

Scientists use nanoparticles to remote control brains of mice. That's what they're doing. Finally, a title that makes some sense. Yeah, all this scientific jargons, tell me what they're doing. So let's go into this study because this is a world's first. And these are scientists out of Korea scientists at the Institute for Basic Science, is actually called that. And South Korea have developed a new way to control the minds of mice

by manipulating nanoparticle activated switches inside their brain. with an external magnetic field. They say in the experiments, the researchers activated inhibitory neurons within specific areas of the brain to increase appetite and feeding behaviors by 100%. By exciting these neurons, the team could conversely reduce the food, the mice ate, by 50%. And it finally says they also used the system

to selectively activate receptors responsible for maternal behaviors in the brains of female mice that hadn't reproduced. In a third experiment, the researchers managed to activate brain regions responsible for boosting friendly behaviors encouraging mice to get along with other mice in a small chamber they had never met before. So these are intimate things these mice are doing that can be controlled by basically dead space. For anybody looking, it's magic. And I mean, this is what we're moving into.

So when we talk about the past failures of medicine, the future of medicine looks pretty crazy. We want someone at the helm that can really feel this with a little bit of huge. human consciousness because are we really going to live on a planet that looks like this at some point? If people are not regulating this, we're going to have, I mean, satellites surrounding our planets, doing what to us on the ground, we don't know. These are questions. This is our future. These are big questions we have to have open conversations about because this technology is rapidly racing

to infiltrate every part of our existence, including our bodies.
