WEBVTT Kind: captions Language: en 00:00:03.200 --> 00:00:10.320 on my desk in my office is another report 00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:14.639 that basically says the pentagon now i think it's seven eight years is 00:00:12.639 --> 00:00:17.680 unauditable basically meaning the government 00:00:16.560 --> 00:00:21.840 auditors are not able to look at the pentagon's 00:00:19.520 --> 00:00:26.560 books and know what assets where money accounts those things are 00:00:23.840 --> 00:00:30.480 look this is unacceptable the same time 00:00:28.240 --> 00:00:36.880 we came across some articles of the concept of ai audit packages that do a 00:00:34.719 --> 00:00:39.840 type of crawling through the books through the inventories through the 00:00:38.399 --> 00:00:44.879 asset list and can actually build audit sets 00:00:43.440 --> 00:00:48.399 so we've introduced a piece of legislation that we think is actually 00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:52.399 really neat but also has the opportunity to move to 00:00:50.559 --> 00:00:56.480 other parts of our government but first let's take on the biggest issue 00:00:55.039 --> 00:01:01.280 the pentagon we have an ai audit of the pentagon 00:00:59.440 --> 00:01:05.199 piece of legislation and it's gotten some interesting press both from 00:01:03.039 --> 00:01:09.119 conservative groups from liberal groups but i will argue 00:01:06.960 --> 00:01:13.840 how do you actually defend the country how do you know we're secure when we 00:01:11.280 --> 00:01:17.040 can't even audit the organization 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:20.720 that is tasked with protecting this country 00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:23.920 so please if you like the idea of using technology in this fashion to audit the 00:01:22.479 --> 00:01:26.479 pentagon if you're not in our district but you're 00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:30.720 in someone else's district would you be willing to pick up the phone or text or 00:01:28.720 --> 00:01:35.680 email however you communicate our brothers and sisters here in congress 00:01:32.720 --> 00:01:39.360 and say this is an idea worthwhile we've tried two or three times to attach it to 00:01:37.520 --> 00:01:44.159 pieces of legislation and it keeps sort of disappearing once 00:01:41.520 --> 00:01:48.399 we have the amendment attached so there may be some folks who are a little 00:01:46.159 --> 00:01:51.520 concerned of what this may show 00:01:49.360 --> 00:01:55.079 but i will argue it's the right thing to do help us
