Jon Stewart & Geoffrey Hinton AI Interview Turns Political: Unnecessary Elon Musk, Trump Jabs Criticized | Uncommon Sense with Mike Kovaliv Review

Dive into this breakdown of Jon Stewart's in-depth AI discussion with "Godfather of AI" Geoffrey Hinton. Originally a fascinating exploration of artificial intelligence origins, neural networks development, key breakthroughs, and future risks like election manipulation and superintelligent persuasion—the discussion starts strong but derails into biased mudslinging.
Mike Kovaliv with Uncommon Sense praises the video's informative value on AI history, human reinforcement learning, and existential threats. However, he calls out 7 frustrating examples where Stewart and Hinton inject unnecessary politics:

Elon Musk's Grok AI: Stewart mocks Musk for "de-wokeifying" Grok, exaggerating it into "Mecca Hitler" bias.
Pronoun Suppression: Hinton jokes Musk would train AI to reject "they/them" pronouns.
Midterm Elections & Peter Thiel: Implies right-wing data hoarding for AI corruption.
Attorney General Dig: Compares AI's "childlike approval-seeking" to Trump loyalists.
AI Ego vs. Donald Trump: Stewart equates sentient AI arrogance to Trump's "I know better" mindset.
January 6th Persuasion Analogy: Hinton links AI manipulation to Capitol invasion.
Final Trump Sarcasm: Hinton "thanks" Trump for handling potential AI bubbles sensibly (sarcastically favoring Canada's Mark Carney).

Why ruin a neutral tech talk with hot-button attacks on Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and conservatives? Kovaliv argues for responsible journalism, common ground, and unity over division. Essential watching for AI enthusiasts, free speech advocates, and those tired of politicized science.
