Expanding the Definition of Death - In The Tank Podcast #505

A recent and highly disturbing New York Times article promoting the idea that doctors should expand the definition of death in order to harvest more organs is stirring up disgust and debate about utilitarianism and the role of doctors or so-called “bioethicists” in shaping medical policy. What is the current state of the organ donation industry and what kind of policy actually makes sense. How far is too far when it comes to medical care?

Along similar lines, in this week’s UNHINGED segment, we spotlight another disturbing case: ex-CNN reporter Jim Acosta conducted a ghoulish interview with an AI simulacrum of a teenager killed during the Parkland school shooting—all for the purpose of pushing gun control.

Finally, the Swedish Prime Minister is facing criticism for “consulting” AI language models for opinions on how to govern the country.

The Heartland Institute’s Linnea Lueken, Jim Lakely, S.T. Karnick, (possibly Justin Haskins), and AnneMarie Schieber, along with special guest Dr. Heidi Klessig, will dive into all of this and more on Episode #505 of the In The Tank Podcast. Join us LIVE at 1 p.m. ET and sound off in the live chat!
