Lockheed F-22 insider warns about AI and UAP connection | Ep 11
Key Takeaways
- Former Lockheed Martin aerospace engineer and Navy veteran Justin Cross brings a rare insider perspective on classified F-22 and F-35 flight test programs to the discussion on artificial intelligence.
- Cross suggests that the origins of advanced intelligence might not lie solely in Silicon Valley, proposing that recovered non-human craft could contain a form of intelligence predating modern LLMs by decades.
- The conversation explores high-stakes scenarios, including what happens when autonomous systems and AI identify entrenched government power structures as core problems to solve.
- Alex Smith and Justin Cross analyze why the transitional period we are currently navigating between human-led systems and an AI-driven future could represent the most dangerous stretch in human history.
- The episode bridges speculative frontiers and defense technology, examining how time, dimensions, consciousness, and the black box problem intersect with modern AI capabilities.
The origin story of artificial intelligence may not start in Silicon Valley. As AI capabilities accelerate beyond what engineers can fully explain, questions about where this technology truly comes from are getting harder to ignore, especially for anyone watching the rapid convergence of AI, military systems, and disclosure conversations happening right now.
Justin Cross is a U.S. Navy veteran and former Lockheed Martin aerospace engineer who spent 14 years on classified F-22 and F-35 flight test programs at Edwards Air Force Base. In this conversation with Alex, he discusses what it was like working inside special access programs, why he believes recovered craft may contain a form of intelligence we are only now beginning to replicate (01:11:14), what happens when AI identifies governments as the problem it needs to solve (00:46:16), and why the transition period between now and any AI-driven future may be the most dangerous stretch in human history (00:38:24). Built for anyone trying to understand the forces shaping AI that never make the headlines.
