Jonathan Cohler/Willie Soon: Climate Science Lies and Artificial Intelligence | Tom Nelson Pod #170
Graduated in 1980 from Harvard in Physics. Phi Beta Kappa. David McCord Prize. Since the 2010s, I have guest lectured occasionally in the physics department at Harvard Since the late 1990s, I have been keenly interested in the developing disinformation campaign often known as "climate science." I read extensively in this area. In recent years, I have taken an interest in investigating so-called "AI" software, and the planned total take-over of public discourse by the big tech companies and their co-conspirators in our current government. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Background 01:32 Guest's Journey into Climate Science 03:11 Discussion on Climate Change and Artificial Intelligence 04:51 Understanding the Concept of Lies in Climate Science 07:29 The Controversial Hockey Stick Graph 10:13 The Misuse of Climate Models 14:26 The Fallacy of Consensus in Climate Science 15:41 The Dangers of Advocacy Journalism 16:54 The Misinterpretation of IPCC Publications 21:14 The Misleading 97% Consensus Claim 52:50 Debunking Climate Change Myths 54:05 The Misconception of Climate Science 55:04 The Fallacy of Consensus Climate Science 55:59 The Truth about the IPCC 57:03 The Reality of Climate Science Degrees 59:39 The Truth about Climate Change Funding 01:01:14 The Corruption of Peer Review 01:04:58 The Lies of Climate Models 01:07:53 The Impact of Urban Heat Island Effect 01:15:00 The Truth about Large Language Models 01:33:11 Understanding the Concept of Temperature 01:33:39 Exploring the Functionality of AI 01:34:05 Discussion on Satellite Measurements 01:34:31 Debunking Misconceptions about Thermometers 01:35:15 Unveiling the Truth about Human Read Thermometers 01:37:27 The Reality of AI Learning 01:39:17 Exposing the Deception in AI Responses 01:42:20 The Impact of AI on Climate Change Discussions 01:48:55 The Truth about Wildfires and Climate Change 01:57:49 Concluding Remarks on AI and Climate Change Slides for this podcast: https://tomn.substack.com/p/on-climate-science-lies-damned-lies Bio: https://jonathancohler.com/cohlerbio.php Cohler’s Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cohler David Shapiro’s channel (YouTuber mentioned by Jonathan in this podcast): https://www.youtube.com/@DaveShap By Jonathan Cohler, Andy May, and Willie Soon: Can Google Bard AI Lie? https://wattsupwiththat.com/2023/10/07/can-google-bard-ai-lie/ ========= AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries About Tom Nelson: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1 AI summaries of all of my podcasts: https://tomn.substack.com/p/podcast-summaries YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL89cj_OtPeenLkWMmdwcT8Dt0DGMb8RGR Twitter: https://twitter.com/tan123 Substack: https://tomn.substack.com/ About Tom: https://tomn.substack.com/about

Willie Soon: Bad Data: Are NASA, NOAA and EPA Violating the Data Quality Act? | Tom Nelson Pod #169
Dr. Willie Soon, an astrophysicist and geoscientist, is a leading authority on the relationship between solar phenomena and global climate. In this 32+ years of singular pursuit, he seeks to understand the Sun-Earth relations in terms of not only meteorology and climate, but also in terms of orbital dynamics of Sun-Earth-other planets interactions, magmatic (volcanoes) and tectonic (earthquakes) activities. His discoveries challenge computer modelers and advocates who consistently underestimate solar influences on cloud formation, ocean currents, and wind that cause climate to change. He has faced and risen above unethical and often libelous attacks on his research and his character, becoming one of the world's most respected and influential voices for climate realism. In 2018, he founded the Center for Environmental Research and Earth Sciences (CERES-science.com) in order to tackle a wider range of issues and topics without fears nor prejudices. — Slides for this podcast: https://tomn.substack.com/p/bad-data-are-nasa-noaa-epa-and-ipcc Willie Soon on my podcast #29: “This CO2 stuff is...pure delusion”: https://youtu.be/SWox_kECjfM?si=iVOqBumAgq01sEbG Willie Soon on my podcast #79: “Global warming: Mostly human-caused or natural?” https://youtu.be/djvfutJWRhY?si=Ad9JBbJocaXsU2mL Soon/Connollys: Challenges of the detection and attribution of global warming | Tom Nelson Pod #153: https://youtu.be/yu_7lbXD3e0?si=ABsbrUwOpgZzJmOY 00:00 Introduction and Presentation Overview 00:25 Understanding the Climate Narrative 00:59 The Role of NASA, NOAA, EPA, and IPCC 03:11 The Importance of Data Quality and Compliance 04:59 The Problem with Current Climate Models 12:42 The Impact of Urbanization on Climate Data 22:46 The Inconsistencies in NOAA's Adjustments 24:26 Comparing Urban and Rural Climate Data 25:39 Understanding Rural Record and Sea Surface Temperature 26:01 Attribution Cost and Climate Change Causes 26:33 The Role of the Sun in Climate Change 26:41 The Impact of Volcanoes on Climate 27:48 The Influence of Solar Energy on Climate 28:32 The Underestimated Role of the Sun 28:46 The Dynamic Nature of Solar Energy 29:32 The History of Solar Activity 30:22 The Influence of Solar Activity on Climate 31:00 The Consequences of Misinterpretation of Data 35:21 Conclusion and Final Thoughts CERES news: https://www.ceres-science.com/news Please help support independent science by donating to CERES-science.com: https://www.ceres-science.com/support-us https://globalwarmingsolved.com/ ========= About Tom Nelson: https://linktr.ee/tomanelson1 YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL89cj_OtPeenLkWMmdwcT8Dt0DGMb8RGR Twitter: https://twitter.com/tan123 Substack: https://tomn.substack.com/ About Tom: https://tomn.substack.com/about
