The right-wing commentator is notorious for his passionate pursuit of “the truth” as editor of InfoWars.com – a bizarre news website at the heart of America’s conspiracy subculture.

Despite being repeatedly discredited by many over the years, President Trump, a fan of the network and close ally of Alex Jones, reportedly granted InfoWars.com press credentials for the White House this week.

A White House official later denied that this was the case but Jones’ colleague, Jerome Corsi, took to Twitter shortly afterwards announcing his new position as White House correspondent for the website.

Among the various conspiracy crusades led by Jones at InfoWars is the belief that the moon landings were faked, 9/11 was an inside job and actors were used in the Sandy Hook school massacre.

Fittingly, the nutty 42-year-old was invited on to episode 911 of the Joe Rogan Experience, where he laid out one of his most outlandish theories to date.

“Google believes the first artificial intelligence will be a supercomputer, based on the neurone activity of the hive-mind of humanity with billions of people wired into it with the internet of things,” he told host Rogan.

“So all of our thoughts go into it and we’re actually building a computer that has real neurones in real time that is also psychically connected to us, organic creatures, so that they will have current prediction powers, future prediction powers – a true crystal ball.

“But the big secret is once you have a big crystal ball and know the future, you can add stimuli beforehand to make decisions that control the future.

“So then it’s the end of consciousness and free will for individuals.”

The brash Texan then goes on to declare “paedophiles and psychic vampires” as the “dark forces” in control of this future supercomputer.

But his bold prediction didn’t go down so well with Rogan, who replied: “What are you talking about?”

“You’re saying something insane.”

At least it was entertaining.
