1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,600
When you were in your twenties and
you were envisioning the life ahead of you,

2
00:00:04,519 --> 00:00:07,240
What is it that you predict did
you did you think about what it

3
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:11,039
might look like? And is it
at all similar to where you are today?

4
00:00:12,839 --> 00:00:20,879
No, I didn't think anything,
Like SpaceX tells what happened. I

5
00:00:20,960 --> 00:00:29,719
well, yeah, so it's completely
Yeah, I'm pretty my twenties. Yes,

6
00:00:30,519 --> 00:00:37,079
let's see. Well I termed thirty
and two thousand and one, so

7
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:47,240
yeah, I that was before the
SpaceX was I've formed in two thousand and

8
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,600
two, and that tells it was
really technically incorporated in two thousand and three,

9
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:55,520
but really didn't get going till two
thousand and four. Some I think

10
00:00:55,520 --> 00:01:02,119
to two thousand fourth when where acre
date tells the two three and both space

11
00:01:02,119 --> 00:01:04,799
Ex and Tesla when they started,
I thought both probably failed. I gave

12
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:11,280
less than attemptent chance of succeeding.
But I thought, if you know,

13
00:01:12,439 --> 00:01:17,959
I made quite a bit of money
from PayPal. I mean I was large

14
00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:23,920
a shareholder in PayPal, so and
I had about one hundred and eighty million

15
00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:27,200
dollars and slab sad a lot of
money. So I figured I just effectively

16
00:01:27,239 --> 00:01:34,719
just waste half of it on these
foolish, foolish rocket and electric car companies,

17
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:38,879
and and then it turned out they
needed basically all of the money.

18
00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,799
So then I spent d up giving
all of the money to SpaceX and Tanes

19
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:47,319
and some of it to Sier City, and and they're still almost going back

20
00:01:47,359 --> 00:01:51,680
rupt in both Moss. So,
I mean, I just really wanted to

21
00:01:51,719 --> 00:01:56,400
be involved in technologies that would change
the world that was made on the real

22
00:01:56,480 --> 00:02:04,159
Bult. Well, you you certainly
did do that. Do you think there's

23
00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:12,039
anything that people might misunderstand about you? No, nothing at all. I

24
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:20,759
think I detected stork my storkcats mate. Never, never, I can think

25
00:02:20,759 --> 00:02:25,639
of something sarcastic. Well, you
know, it's it's difficult because I find,

26
00:02:25,879 --> 00:02:30,360
you know, even on the small
scale that I've experienced it, like

27
00:02:30,439 --> 00:02:34,520
I, I find it very difficult, and people miss misunderstand something about me

28
00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,919
and then judge me, and so
I kind of want to correct them and

29
00:02:38,479 --> 00:02:47,879
have you sort of let that.
Well, I mean, there's so much

30
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,360
prendant about me that I actually don't
even I can't even read it all.

31
00:02:51,439 --> 00:02:54,840
But if I would take a large
portion of my day to simply to read

32
00:02:54,960 --> 00:03:01,960
all of the nonsense iCal e about
me have grind about me over the years

33
00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:07,240
when I find the regular news or
what it called the legacy media just depressing

34
00:03:07,560 --> 00:03:14,639
and often just uninformative or speaking of
misinformation. It's remarkable how often there is

35
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:22,240
just misinformation or just stopping information printed
in what, you know, some of

36
00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:27,719
the biggest publications in the world.
I mean, the Wall Street Journal is

37
00:03:28,039 --> 00:03:30,960
I think now printed three articles saying
that I'm high all the time, which

38
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,960
is really uh, like, I
guess a compliment, because I mean,

39
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:42,199
you are high in the yes from
an altitude step. But I'm certainly fly

40
00:03:42,319 --> 00:03:49,000
a lot because my I'm flying around
like a lunatic working by the way,

41
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:54,240
not you know, going to my
yacht or I don't have a riboland or

42
00:03:54,599 --> 00:04:00,680
or even a holiday home. In
fact, more quite someone looked at my

43
00:04:00,719 --> 00:04:05,199
flight schedule and and put it to
pinball music because I was flying around best

44
00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:11,120
around like so it listened. My
flat path looked like a pinball machine,

45
00:04:11,919 --> 00:04:17,360
so I which I think, you
know, it really makes it fear that

46
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:23,680
you do have to be at work
in person. You can't actually work from

47
00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:26,319
welm and be as effective. You
know, this is some wor work from

48
00:04:26,319 --> 00:04:29,560
wim thing. Well, if I
could work from wim I why why am

49
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,319
I flying around all the time?
I fly around all the time. It

50
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:39,920
makes big dimples to be learned person. And I spent Yeah, so I've

51
00:04:39,959 --> 00:04:46,160
spent many a night in the factory
Tesla SpaceX and well that most of the

52
00:04:46,199 --> 00:04:51,199
task. Its's been much more about
a challenge on the Maine backroom front,

53
00:04:51,399 --> 00:04:56,079
and just it tells us just in
general, been much more of a drama

54
00:04:57,319 --> 00:05:00,879
way, if that's still a thing. One can serning drama and queen a

55
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:13,399
drama bonock, Yes so, and
should posting lord Lord. I think I

56
00:05:13,399 --> 00:05:16,439
think that's the official title. I've
heard that said in the media, so

57
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:21,639
you know it must be true.
Drama monoch, I like that that's you.

58
00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,439
So yeah, but it does it
does really matter to be their person.

59
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,959
I'm actually all that way to help
when you're full space section testing the

60
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:42,560
aids primarily Tesla actually and so yeah, well it's one of those things where

61
00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:46,680
I do think, like our humanity, I do think we need some face

62
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,399
to face. I am crazy and
I love working from home, but I

63
00:05:48,439 --> 00:05:51,800
also need to see people and brain
You know, you can't really brainstorm with

64
00:05:51,879 --> 00:05:57,480
people, not you know, not
fast to face, but in terms of

65
00:05:57,519 --> 00:06:00,360
like you know, you've stated many
times that you're free each absolutist, and

66
00:06:00,399 --> 00:06:05,279
you bought this platform at least in
part to set the bird free. And

67
00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:10,480
I believe there's even many means on
that. So it's been about a year

68
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:15,560
and a half and I'm wondering,
you know, through this experience, have

69
00:06:15,639 --> 00:06:19,319
you learned anything about speak of social
media platforms that surprised you? And do

70
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:25,160
you think there may be there is
a degree that's necessary, you know,

71
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:30,959
in a private platform for a good
user experience. Well, I mean it's

72
00:06:30,959 --> 00:06:34,920
been many things that surprise me.
Having the amount of government control, of

73
00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:40,759
degree to which Twitter was acting at
the beat of the many obs of the

74
00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:46,560
government was a surprise to me.
They really were, you know, in

75
00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:53,240
my view, in my view that
there were many violations, uh the First

76
00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,279
Amendment, which I think you're in
Canada, but there is you know,

77
00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:00,759
there's no actual First Amendment in Canada, but there's one in the US.

78
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:05,720
And you know, and and the
government cannot exercise the factor control of the

79
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:10,800
media. And the reason that man
was pretty place is because people came from

80
00:07:10,879 --> 00:07:15,879
countries where you work forbidden to speak
on penalty of prison or death, and

81
00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:18,879
so they wanted to have the ability
to say what they you know, to

82
00:07:18,879 --> 00:07:26,800
speak really without fear of of severe
punishment, at least not from the government.

83
00:07:27,519 --> 00:07:30,079
So so that that was, you
know, that was really a very

84
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:39,800
troubling discovery. And then I think
obviously anyone who watches that Twitter was was

85
00:07:39,920 --> 00:07:47,120
very much controlled by far left activists, very far left, and you know,

86
00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:53,160
it was really controlled by a niche
ideology that geographically is limited to the

87
00:07:53,199 --> 00:07:56,639
city of San Francisco and Berkeley,
not even it doesn't even extend to the

88
00:07:56,639 --> 00:08:03,839
city of South San Francisco or Siddaly
not it's Palo Alto. So so you

89
00:08:03,879 --> 00:08:07,680
know, a fall up niche ideology
that would ordinarily be geographically contained was effectively

90
00:08:07,720 --> 00:08:13,360
piping that what you know, what
most people consider it extreme, what most

91
00:08:13,399 --> 00:08:18,360
of the world night acs of the
world there ideology was pipe was was pumping

92
00:08:18,399 --> 00:08:22,279
that to anywhere on Earth that would
allowed what it to exist, So that

93
00:08:22,439 --> 00:08:26,439
you know, that's I thought it
was. It was effectively one time,

94
00:08:26,959 --> 00:08:31,439
you know, so the world and
so it's gonna get to be done about

95
00:08:31,439 --> 00:08:37,039
that, I thought it was.
It was it was actually a civilizational risk.

96
00:08:37,159 --> 00:08:43,759
So you know, I think if
if the United States does, for

97
00:08:43,960 --> 00:08:48,519
that that would be there's a nice
people think, well, they'll they'll escape

98
00:08:48,519 --> 00:08:50,879
to New Zealand, no other place. It's like, that's that's not gonna

99
00:08:50,919 --> 00:08:56,799
that's not realistic. Canada will if
a nice days falls, Canada is going

100
00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:01,399
to become a province in Russia.
And I don't know what's going to happen

101
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:03,519
to the other countries, but they're
not gonna. They supply under the protective

102
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:11,440
umbrella of the United States. The
United States is this is a central fall,

103
00:09:11,919 --> 00:09:20,279
central tentpole that holds up the entire
oedipus of Western civilization. So we

104
00:09:20,399 --> 00:09:24,679
just have we have to make sure
that the United States is strong, that

105
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,879
it remains democracy. And free speech
is the bedrock of the functioning democracy.

106
00:09:28,879 --> 00:09:35,480
You cannot have a true democracy unless
people uh can say that say what they

107
00:09:35,519 --> 00:09:39,559
want to say, and can and
can learn the truth of things, because

108
00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:45,480
otherwise you're making we work based on
a lack of information or a distorted view

109
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:52,039
of information, and which can make
the boage effectively meaningless because you don't know

110
00:09:52,039 --> 00:09:56,679
what to put on what basis to
make you look. So I think this

111
00:09:56,720 --> 00:10:07,080
is something that is extremely important,
and that's the reason for require Twitter and

112
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:13,399
and I think we do want a
fresh start hens the different branding and and

113
00:10:13,399 --> 00:10:18,039
and also accessibably a much broader system
in Twitter, which is the name that

114
00:10:18,519 --> 00:10:24,080
made sense when you're doing a one
hundred body character or short textual tweets.

115
00:10:24,639 --> 00:10:30,080
It was it was a bit like
words some twittering away. But once you

116
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:35,679
start having three hour videos and uh, what are your video calling? And

117
00:10:37,879 --> 00:10:43,320
we will be launching payments later this
year, then the name no longer fits

118
00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,360
the you know, it would be
like naming a company that has broad ranging

119
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:54,519
products after one product three great sense
to do that, And I think also

120
00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:56,840
think it was we want to leave. We want to sort of put the

121
00:10:58,519 --> 00:11:01,519
you know, free the word and
let letter fly free and and and be

122
00:11:01,639 --> 00:11:09,440
something else. So sorry, go
ahead. Yeah, So that's that's the

123
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:16,120
reasoning for it. But do you
feel that maybe like having now had ownership

124
00:11:16,159 --> 00:11:20,720
of it for a while, you
know, you do have some regulations on

125
00:11:20,759 --> 00:11:24,240
the platform, you know, certain
way to be, you know, and

126
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:28,080
they're not all things that necessarily go
against the law, right like obviously you

127
00:11:28,120 --> 00:11:33,799
know, threaten someone with violence,
But some of the modern maat on the

128
00:11:33,799 --> 00:11:39,000
platform isn't really to do with things
they're legal, like where's what's your perspective

129
00:11:39,039 --> 00:11:46,720
on that. Well, actually,
the we really should be hearing as close

130
00:11:46,759 --> 00:11:54,919
to the low as possible, so
and and really extremely I think reluctant to

131
00:11:54,960 --> 00:12:01,360
have permanent bands on people because I
think opponent ban it's almost like the death

132
00:12:01,399 --> 00:12:09,960
sense, so that that should be
a very rare thing. So you know,

133
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:15,320
it's like like we you know it, and where were less of lives

134
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:22,559
as a society, we would execute
people with wider crimes or and now it

135
00:12:22,559 --> 00:12:28,120
comes inclusion, Well that's that's wrong. The crime should but the people should

136
00:12:28,159 --> 00:12:31,480
be inconstrated for some period of time
but not forever, and they shouldn't be

137
00:12:31,519 --> 00:12:37,639
executed unless it's in the very extreme
circumstance. So so I think that's kind

138
00:12:37,639 --> 00:12:43,279
of what we should be doing.
And that doesn't mean at the same time

139
00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:48,120
that you just get to harass other
people on the platform. Uh. They

140
00:12:48,159 --> 00:12:52,559
obviously have the ability to to mute
from you to I'm getting around to getting

141
00:12:52,600 --> 00:12:58,000
rid of the block, but obvious
the stronger mute. So so like you

142
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:01,639
really don't want to hear from someone
you there's not some way to get around

143
00:13:01,639 --> 00:13:11,320
and which you can just cute them
entirely. So in general, if we

144
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:16,440
are suspending people for or accounts for
reasons that we'll go beyond the law.

145
00:13:16,440 --> 00:13:22,919
I'd like to know about that,
because I don't think we should be suspecting

146
00:13:22,000 --> 00:13:30,240
people for reasons that whether there's not
a probable legal interaction. Yeah, I

147
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:35,120
guess my thinking around that things like
it so I used to be, you

148
00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:37,320
know, I think really much more
of a free speak absolutely listen to some

149
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:43,240
extent, its still am. But
when it comes to private platforms or just

150
00:13:43,279 --> 00:13:46,840
my engagement, because I used to
respond to anybody no matter how they said

151
00:13:46,919 --> 00:13:50,240
to me, I realize, well, they're not coming in good faith.

152
00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:54,279
They're like, I can disagree with
them on what they say, but if

153
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,639
they're not coming in good faith,
if they're rude, if they're attacking me,

154
00:13:56,679 --> 00:14:03,120
if they're disingenuous, I don't feel
like I have a responsibility to engage

155
00:14:03,159 --> 00:14:07,360
with them, And you certainly don't. Yeah, you should have the ability

156
00:14:07,399 --> 00:14:13,600
to quite you know, to to
meet them and have them not not bother

157
00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:18,759
you. And and you know,
and if if I guess, we do

158
00:14:18,840 --> 00:14:28,200
see that there's like a coordinated attack
two uh, effectively squash free speech of

159
00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:31,159
the platform, then that that would
certainly be reasons for at least the temporary

160
00:14:31,159 --> 00:14:35,799
suspension of the accounts that engage in
that behavior, and then those temporary suspensions

161
00:14:35,799 --> 00:14:39,159
would grow in length, kind of
like when you you know, if you're

162
00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,639
having your password too many times on
your phone, gives you longer and longer

163
00:14:43,679 --> 00:14:48,559
times. You can't just reforce hacket
met you know, We've got we have

164
00:14:48,639 --> 00:14:52,080
a system now where it's give people
a short suspension, then a lot than

165
00:14:52,159 --> 00:14:58,480
a longer suspension. Eventually the suspension
length gets longer and longer if they keep

166
00:14:58,519 --> 00:15:03,039
doing it, and hopefully that serves
as a deterrent to you know, bad

167
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:09,159
behavior. But with full permanent suspensions, we really need to be a situation

168
00:15:09,200 --> 00:15:16,840
where someone is engaged in obviously you
work broad or threatening like auto equivalently threatening

169
00:15:16,960 --> 00:15:24,240
violence. They're doing things that are
just obviously illegal. Do you have enough

170
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,480
people you think to be able to
handle that or do you proceed using AI

171
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:31,960
to handle you know, things like
threats, like things that are in direct

172
00:15:33,000 --> 00:15:41,200
violation. I don't. It's not
it's not a number of people think I

173
00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:46,200
think we need. Uh, we're
all reorganizing a company and we are bringing

174
00:15:48,720 --> 00:15:50,279
like a lot of a lot of
the work is done by sort of contractors

175
00:15:50,879 --> 00:15:58,279
in other countries, like for English
language moderation, and they sometimes just don't

176
00:15:58,360 --> 00:16:04,759
understand the context of what's being said, so we'll we'll get too ready false

177
00:16:04,799 --> 00:16:11,320
positives or false negatives where they they
should be doing somewhat temporary suspension and they're

178
00:16:11,320 --> 00:16:15,000
not, or they suspend someone because
but they don't understand that it's an intematic

179
00:16:15,080 --> 00:16:25,200
expression that they actually will mean that
literally. So we are fully up internal

180
00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:30,039
UH team are based in the US
that I think we better have have a

181
00:16:30,039 --> 00:16:36,559
better under stating of what when when
is you know, when when when is

182
00:16:36,639 --> 00:16:44,440
something something somebody really threatening violence versus
something bigger speech. It's not it's not

183
00:16:44,879 --> 00:16:48,519
something a matter of quantity, it's
it matters that people understand this, which

184
00:16:48,559 --> 00:16:59,600
we stain see Also, the the
whole of reporting framework is byzantine, Like

185
00:16:59,639 --> 00:17:08,720
the whole flow of how accounts are
reported and then what it's done is extremely

186
00:17:08,720 --> 00:17:17,160
complex and difficult to do to understand, even if you're yeah fufully aware of

187
00:17:18,200 --> 00:17:23,960
say a US colloquialism is so anyway, So we're building up an enal team

188
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,559
and I think we'll be using that
more and more, which should improve the

189
00:17:29,839 --> 00:17:37,160
plody. But yeah, moderation,
but I always, of course that moderation.

190
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:44,039
You know, it's like all things
of moderation, especially moderations, because

191
00:17:44,079 --> 00:17:49,759
moderation is often the use of us
short. I mean like when when when

192
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,720
you know, obviously, when when
organizations seek to engage in propaganda, they

193
00:17:56,839 --> 00:18:03,200
naturally use mistleeeding tongue because they are
arguation propaganda. In fact, I don't

194
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:07,559
even really like the name Uster and
Safety as an organization. I mean,

195
00:18:07,559 --> 00:18:12,039
that'ssary. I would fit very well
in George Owelbo. So in generally,

196
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:19,240
I think it's like they don't show
customer service or just you know, not

197
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:29,119
much moderation. Now, it's true, I mean, I mean, I

198
00:18:29,640 --> 00:18:32,599
agree with you about the words that
are being used. I don't think that

199
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:37,519
they're always intended to be propaganda.
I think it's something that sort of starts

200
00:18:37,559 --> 00:18:41,519
as part of the culture, and
then there's this sort of feel like you

201
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:45,880
have to use them. You know. Obviously, I've been in mainstream journalism

202
00:18:45,920 --> 00:18:48,880
for many years. It's not like
anybody's ever said to me, hey,

203
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:52,799
Catherine, you know you need to
use these particular words. But you see

204
00:18:52,799 --> 00:18:56,240
them around and you see what each
publication uses, and something that you are

205
00:18:56,279 --> 00:19:00,400
sort of taught is that you write
in the voice of that publication, and

206
00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:04,640
so it becomes more dominant. This
new language becomes more and more dominant,

207
00:19:04,680 --> 00:19:08,440
and people don't really think so much
about why are we using these words?

208
00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:17,440
Why have they changed? Right?
Yeah, well, I think there's almost

209
00:19:17,519 --> 00:19:26,000
like a attempting fates named something trust
in safety. It's inevitably going to be

210
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:29,559
kind of the opposite. Yeah,
I think you want to have a new

211
00:19:29,799 --> 00:19:36,240
newful tone as opposed to something which
if there's a ministry of trust and safety,

212
00:19:36,319 --> 00:19:44,160
would you would you trust that?
Now we're talking for rebellion trusty called

213
00:19:44,200 --> 00:19:48,440
trust and safety. I don't million
news. No, no, that's fair.

214
00:19:48,519 --> 00:19:52,920
And I think look when the whole
Twitter files thing came out for me,

215
00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:56,160
you know, I'm comfortable with some
moderation, but I'm also okayd with

216
00:19:56,319 --> 00:20:00,880
not you know, I think you
want could go either way. However,

217
00:20:00,319 --> 00:20:03,319
when you have as a private entity, I think you have the right to

218
00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:08,960
do what you want. But when
you have government organizations exactly telling you what

219
00:20:10,039 --> 00:20:12,599
to do, that to me like
that that is where we are looking at

220
00:20:12,599 --> 00:20:15,400
censorships, even if they built it, when you have to do it or

221
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:25,480
else, there's apply to thread there, but you know the I agree,

222
00:20:26,519 --> 00:20:29,880
yeah, Well, but where I'm
sort of struggling lately. You know,

223
00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:33,440
people have always said, you know, senshine is the best disinfectants. You

224
00:20:33,480 --> 00:20:37,039
know, as a as a liberal, you know, it was always like

225
00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:41,319
freedom of speech is so fundamental in
my very left leaning schools. That's what

226
00:20:41,480 --> 00:20:45,319
I've sawt and that was the value
we had, and and I still,

227
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:49,079
you know, obviously believe a lot
of that. But when we're looking but

228
00:20:49,200 --> 00:20:53,400
when I think about social media structures, right, you have there's a lot

229
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:57,720
of incentives that are for telling lies. And it's not just the media social

230
00:20:57,759 --> 00:21:04,000
media, and it's not just acts
either. It's what it is is every

231
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:08,079
social media structure, and it's humans. Right, Humans have a tendency to

232
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:15,720
amplify. I think there are sensational
there is incentivized outrage, and so I

233
00:21:15,759 --> 00:21:19,200
don't never well, considering that is
the case, do you still feel that

234
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:23,759
that statement of that the sunshine being
the best disinfectant still holds true when you

235
00:21:23,880 --> 00:21:29,039
have basically, you know, lies
spreading very very quickly. And I know

236
00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,319
you've tried to do really good,
you know, I'm I'm I'm a big

237
00:21:32,319 --> 00:21:36,000
fan of actually community notes and I
think that's one of these you know,

238
00:21:36,079 --> 00:21:41,000
you can help that, but by
providing people with more information rather than censoring

239
00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,519
whatever, even if it's a lie. But do you think that that structure,

240
00:21:45,799 --> 00:21:51,480
you know, appeals to truth finding? I guess truth seeking in the

241
00:21:51,519 --> 00:21:56,759
sense that it's when things are exposed, you should be coming to the you

242
00:21:56,799 --> 00:22:00,240
know, the truth should come to
the surface. But clearly doesn't always right,

243
00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:08,759
Well, I think honesty is the
best policy actually, and so yeah,

244
00:22:08,799 --> 00:22:11,839
you have to make a choice here. Nothing's going to be perfect.

245
00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:17,279
Do whatever. You're on the side
of free speech or on the size of

246
00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:22,279
censorship. I think we should are
on the side of free speech. And

247
00:22:22,319 --> 00:22:26,799
while it is true that lives are
often sensationalized and more interesting than the truth,

248
00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:33,119
over time, if you have free
speech, people can at least get

249
00:22:33,160 --> 00:22:37,039
to the truth that they want to. But if you've got human sensors,

250
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:45,119
well then you're lying on them and
up and ate they're wrong, and it

251
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:52,480
becomes a magnetical for activists, for
people who back want to distort the truth.

252
00:22:52,000 --> 00:23:03,839
This is really the problem with having
moderation, okay censorship is is that

253
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:11,319
those who wish to distort the truth
will naturally gravitate to positions of power and

254
00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:21,920
information control. So base letter Yeah
yeah, so now yeah, so so

255
00:23:22,079 --> 00:23:26,559
this is what this is what happened
at Twitter. It didn't start out with

256
00:23:26,559 --> 00:23:33,680
with activists being in control, but
it ended up with them being because that's

257
00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:38,440
what they they literally, you know, it's like that's the classic say about

258
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,839
Willie Loman, Why did you know? Why did you rop backs and said

259
00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,559
because that's where the money is?
Well, so, well, why why

260
00:23:45,599 --> 00:23:53,160
did the activists go and become quo
moderators and sensors Because that's where the influence

261
00:23:53,279 --> 00:23:59,920
is. So you can pretty much
guarantee that that it will be a mag

262
00:24:00,200 --> 00:24:07,200
that any any kind of stistic or
moderation is gonna be a magnetful for people

263
00:24:07,200 --> 00:24:15,880
who want to distorage and control the
truth. That's that is what happened at

264
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:19,519
Tweet. I mean, you're roth. Literally, I believe he actually tweeted

265
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:26,319
that the reason he wanted to be
in charge of trust and safety was because

266
00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:32,000
he wanted to he wanted to be
an activists, Like I think he said

267
00:24:32,039 --> 00:24:40,119
that publicly. Here's any I guess
that's a good segue into journalism because you

268
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:44,440
know, this is something that I'm
seeing more you know kind of came up

269
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,920
with I had really greats, really
people who valuated proof and called me out

270
00:24:49,079 --> 00:24:52,799
when I you know, be as
my way in coffee and asked the right

271
00:24:52,880 --> 00:24:57,000
questions. But I have seen sort
of the incentive to go into journalism,

272
00:24:57,240 --> 00:25:02,519
especially because it's not a highly paid
field, right, So so why would

273
00:25:02,519 --> 00:25:04,440
you go into it? You either
really really love something about it or you

274
00:25:04,519 --> 00:25:08,480
want to you know, you'd want
to have a cause, and so this

275
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:12,440
kind of active as journalist emerge.
So as a result, I do see

276
00:25:12,440 --> 00:25:18,240
a lot of issues that we have
these case as a result. But you've

277
00:25:18,279 --> 00:25:21,880
spoken a lot about citizen journalism,
you know, and I've I've always been

278
00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:26,880
really supportive of the idea of citizen
journalism. But at the same time,

279
00:25:26,079 --> 00:25:33,960
you know, there is the the
sort of mainstream media does still have really

280
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:40,039
good structures for collecting, use as
the resources, as some sort of editorial

281
00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:45,799
standard, but it has undoubtedly lost
a lot of trust. Do you see,

282
00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,880
you know, citizen journalism as being
potentially just complementary. Do you see

283
00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:56,720
it as something that do you do
you see way forward where the traditional mainstream

284
00:25:56,759 --> 00:26:00,920
media can rebuild that trust that a
lot of it has lost. Because I

285
00:26:00,960 --> 00:26:04,279
still think there's good work that that
some journalists do and some publications do.

286
00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:12,119
It's just there's also a lot that
I think is fair to criticize. Well,

287
00:26:12,839 --> 00:26:18,720
I think actually that and the legacy
media. I think it's correct for

288
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:26,680
a firm as legacy media. It's
really an inefficient way of humanity learning what

289
00:26:26,759 --> 00:26:33,160
is going on. It was it
was a it's a it's a it's an

290
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:40,440
old technology that was necessary before you
add the Internet. But it is I

291
00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:47,880
think fundamentally inefficient. Uh. And
if you're to simply everyone voicing their opinion

292
00:26:48,519 --> 00:26:55,279
and the most interesting opinions being serviced. But if you think just you say,

293
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,920
like, well, just well,
how does the media work. There's

294
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:03,319
this whole number of prominent publications that
write a small number of articles. They

295
00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:08,519
write articles about areas that they don't
actually understand and where they were often not

296
00:27:08,599 --> 00:27:12,079
there or they were usually not there
as a field, they are undersaid.

297
00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:21,319
So if they're in the best case
scenario, you've got someone who it's denserving

298
00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:26,519
that the journalists is doing their absolute
best to write an accurate article. That's

299
00:27:26,519 --> 00:27:32,839
something. There's still a lot an
expiantal field and they're still and beast what

300
00:27:32,960 --> 00:27:38,599
character cases for it to actually there, So the biscus of that article is

301
00:27:38,759 --> 00:27:44,160
really going to be pretty bad.
That's why, you know, if you

302
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,200
really want to say, like how
accurate is any given article, well,

303
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:49,720
when you see an article that you
actually actually understand the field or you know

304
00:27:49,759 --> 00:27:56,079
what actually happened, how accurate is
that article? It's usually do you read

305
00:27:56,079 --> 00:27:57,359
it and say, that's actually not
at all what happened. As usly,

306
00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:03,359
I goes, well, that's true
for all the articles. It's not just

307
00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:04,720
true for the things that you're an
expert, and it's true for all the

308
00:28:04,799 --> 00:28:14,039
articles. If instead we have a
vast and large number of people who are

309
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:19,119
expert in the field, who are
who were there or literally are there right

310
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:26,839
now, you've got I don't know, one hundred or a thousand or ten

311
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:33,680
thousand times or sources of information.
Source of information better be more accurate because

312
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:40,440
they're experts in the field or I'm
literally there, and and it's just it's

313
00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:47,119
really not something that legacy media can
compete with legs. It's thinking like legacy

314
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:52,039
media is like the fax machine,
or like writing letters, like with the

315
00:28:52,079 --> 00:28:59,240
pen and paper, compared to the
internet, Like how many people used to

316
00:28:59,279 --> 00:29:03,039
communicate by writing letters because that was
the only technology available at the time,

317
00:29:03,079 --> 00:29:06,559
So the right letters, and back
in the day it was with a quill,

318
00:29:06,799 --> 00:29:08,640
quite difficult, dry letter of the
quill, and then you'd have a

319
00:29:08,720 --> 00:29:15,960
very slow often uh, your mail
will get lost. But this is literally

320
00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:18,880
how the world communicator was. Like
writing a letter, they would have to

321
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:26,440
being carried by someone or our boards
from one person to another. In NOL

322
00:29:26,519 --> 00:29:30,960
days, when they would declare war, half the country wouldn't even know that

323
00:29:30,319 --> 00:29:37,799
been declared because they didn't get the
mail. So that even even in the

324
00:29:37,880 --> 00:29:42,480
in the US Civil War, there
were battles that took place well after there

325
00:29:42,519 --> 00:29:47,160
was a peace deal side because they
actually didn't know that a peace deal has

326
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:49,400
been sided. That one of the
last battles of the war I think maybe

327
00:29:49,440 --> 00:29:55,039
be last was right near our Star
based launch sight in South Texas, and

328
00:29:55,079 --> 00:29:57,920
they brought a battle because they didn't
realize that that the sides had actually declared

329
00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:03,599
peace. So that's kind of what
youah with some version of that with the

330
00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:11,119
legacy media. I would challenge one
thing though, speed is not always I

331
00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:15,200
think you know King. I mean, obviously you want breaking news to happen

332
00:30:15,279 --> 00:30:18,599
quickly, and it's it's important when
it does. But and I think AI

333
00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:22,720
is going to help to some extent. But the reporting on the ground is

334
00:30:22,759 --> 00:30:26,759
really important. But when you go
at a really high speed, you also

335
00:30:26,799 --> 00:30:30,759
have more chances of getting something wrong. Right, So when you have things

336
00:30:30,839 --> 00:30:36,720
travel really quickly and you've got the
wrong information, I mean sometimes that information

337
00:30:36,799 --> 00:30:41,039
can lead to potential depth for you
know, people making very bad decisions because

338
00:30:41,039 --> 00:30:45,839
they're relying on information that wasn't vetted. And even with journalists right like you

339
00:30:45,880 --> 00:30:49,400
see that happening. You might see
a source for a story and then they'll

340
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:56,160
copy it and there's broken telephone going
around and because because it's traveling too fast

341
00:30:56,200 --> 00:30:59,160
and people are trying to get it
out too fast, and they haven't properly

342
00:30:59,319 --> 00:31:03,839
verified the information. So I think
it's important to sort of keep that in

343
00:31:03,839 --> 00:31:08,720
mind, especially when it comes to
important stories. Right, Uh yeah,

344
00:31:08,759 --> 00:31:15,799
Well, I mean the media and
is the Leasyvita has a striking clive problem

345
00:31:17,079 --> 00:31:22,440
where the revenue is to decreaseing,
user decreasing, so they're actually desperate to

346
00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,839
get news out. First, you
get news out, even a few hours

347
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:32,839
later, you're gonna get much intentional
So this has actually led to a rap

348
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:40,880
or reduction in the quality of information
made by legousy media. But for legacy

349
00:31:40,880 --> 00:31:45,119
media, the ability to actually correct
things is basically zero. They can take

350
00:31:45,119 --> 00:31:48,920
to run a retraction, you know, a week later that nobody reads,

351
00:31:48,480 --> 00:31:55,599
whereas the past years online or like
on on the X platform is corrected immediately.

352
00:31:56,119 --> 00:32:00,119
So yes, there may be an
up art wrong things that are said,

353
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:05,079
but then they're just as quickly corrected, and the same cannot be said

354
00:32:05,160 --> 00:32:09,960
on legacy media that's printed. In
some cases it's corrected like if the community

355
00:32:10,000 --> 00:32:13,039
note, for example, goes through
And by the way I mean, and

356
00:32:13,039 --> 00:32:16,359
this is not just an X situation, right, there's other social media platforms

357
00:32:16,359 --> 00:32:21,839
that don't have things like community notes. So I find that things do spread

358
00:32:22,039 --> 00:32:25,480
very quickly and there isn't always a
mechanism for corrections. And I think,

359
00:32:25,519 --> 00:32:30,240
look, community notes is it may
be imperfect, but I think there's a

360
00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,319
lot that it can do and a
lot of areas where it can grow to

361
00:32:34,559 --> 00:32:37,640
do better on the correcting of information. So I think and I agree with

362
00:32:37,680 --> 00:32:42,359
you that with you know, one
thing that I have a significant issue with

363
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:45,440
is that a lot of times when
a media outlet makes a mistake, even

364
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:49,839
if they do correct it, no
one sees that correction, and there's no

365
00:32:49,920 --> 00:32:52,640
sort of accountability Like I'd like them
to publish and say, you know,

366
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:57,640
we've made this many errors today and
you know, this month, and be

367
00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,599
really accountable about it to the readers, because I think would also benefit THEMB

368
00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:05,559
because it will build trust. Do
you see a world where you know,

369
00:33:05,839 --> 00:33:08,799
you take like one thing that I've
really enjoyed on X and other social well

370
00:33:09,319 --> 00:33:14,759
X, because that's really the dominant
platform for me. But when there is

371
00:33:14,839 --> 00:33:19,400
breaking use of some sort you can
get like really interesting people breaking it down.

372
00:33:19,480 --> 00:33:22,200
So you might have somebody who has
expertise in a particular area or maybe

373
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:27,440
lives in a particular region, and
it gives me this kind of enhanced idea

374
00:33:27,519 --> 00:33:30,200
what's going on in the news.
So to me, I see it as

375
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:34,880
something that the citizen journalism aspect of
it, or the community aspect of it

376
00:33:34,920 --> 00:33:39,400
is something that to me seems like
a great potential enhancement to traditional media and

377
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:44,839
perhaps there is a way for it
to work better together. Do you see

378
00:33:44,839 --> 00:33:51,279
that or do you see social media
completely replacing sort of the conventional media format.

379
00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:58,759
Well in a bed of what I
think what has actually happened and will

380
00:33:58,759 --> 00:34:04,160
happen recently over time, is is
it's you know, it's sort of like

381
00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:10,280
trying to argue that people should go
from having email back to writing letters and

382
00:34:10,320 --> 00:34:16,000
mailing them mailing physical letters. It's
simply not going to happen. So it's

383
00:34:16,039 --> 00:34:22,000
not it's not even I want this
or not. I'm simply describing that legacy

384
00:34:22,039 --> 00:34:29,599
media is a legacy. It's it's
it's an inefficient and very slow means of

385
00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:37,440
simiting information. And you know,
like you can like civilization is is kind

386
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:42,000
of a group mind for humanity.
The efficiency of your coach postaless kind of

387
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:46,159
a neuron in a giant brain,
and the effectness of that brain is going

388
00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:51,599
to be function of how well those
neurons fire, how quickly they fire,

389
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:58,480
how quickly information trap goes round and
is corrected. And I think legacy we

390
00:34:58,679 --> 00:35:07,440
can no will compete with with internet
media. Then then then written letters can

391
00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:12,880
compete with email. It's simply that's
a read just the fact. It doesn't

392
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:15,559
mean that nobody writes letters anymore.
There are some letters written, but they

393
00:35:15,599 --> 00:35:22,719
are niche, and legacy media is
a niche and will macwy even more niche.

394
00:35:22,920 --> 00:35:24,239
That's just a statement of fact.
That's where I want it to be

395
00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:30,039
true or lot. I understand what
you're saying. I feel as though there's

396
00:35:30,119 --> 00:35:35,280
certain things that media institutions do better
than For example, if somebody is just

397
00:35:35,320 --> 00:35:37,960
on social media and some people are
spectacular, right, some people produce incredible

398
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:42,920
content, they take hundreds of of
hours to do it, So there's always

399
00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:46,079
exceptions. But if he wanted to
report on a story, like I know

400
00:35:46,119 --> 00:35:51,800
as a journalist, it takes me
a very long time basically in proportion to

401
00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:53,639
how much impaid for a story.
It sort of gives me an ability to

402
00:35:53,679 --> 00:35:59,199
spend more time researching it, speaking
to more sources, really going to the

403
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:04,760
places. So there's certain kinds of
journalism where it's like say, investigable pieces

404
00:36:05,679 --> 00:36:09,480
that I think you have a bigger
chance of getting a really good story that

405
00:36:10,119 --> 00:36:15,800
you know, application might invest in
just kind of like a movie studio invest

406
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:20,320
in Oscar kind of bait movies,
even though it's not a money leader for

407
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:24,079
them, right, because they want
that sort of reputational They want to have

408
00:36:24,119 --> 00:36:30,199
that reputation for good movies, same
as they want reputation for good journalism.

409
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:35,119
And I don't know how that would
translate to the social media port where people

410
00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:42,599
don't necessarily have those kinds of resources, including just tumming. Well, if

411
00:36:43,679 --> 00:36:49,480
somebody is actually an expert in the
field or literally was there, it takes

412
00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,760
very little effort for them to actually
inspire the situation. It's much harder for

413
00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:58,280
someone who wasn't there or is not
an expert look field to attempt to become

414
00:36:58,320 --> 00:37:02,239
at least a slight expert with field
or interview of watch people who were there.

415
00:37:04,880 --> 00:37:07,039
That that one of saying is that
that that that has no longer necessary.

416
00:37:07,079 --> 00:37:12,880
You can now hear it directly from
world class experts as on exit,

417
00:37:13,239 --> 00:37:20,039
you can care directly from the best
AI scientists and engineers in the world directly

418
00:37:20,079 --> 00:37:25,159
problem immediately. But that information and
in some ways it's good that information isn't

419
00:37:25,159 --> 00:37:29,880
filtered, it's uncensored. And at
the same time, when you have a

420
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:34,920
good journalist, that person is should
be good at discerning you know, who's

421
00:37:35,159 --> 00:37:38,800
who's a really interesting expert and let's
bring different diverse points of views into this

422
00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:43,960
story. So it's more than just
you know, one person's opinion or a

423
00:37:43,960 --> 00:37:47,519
few people's random people's opinions who might
have expertise, but you know, haven't

424
00:37:47,559 --> 00:37:54,440
done like a full sampling. Well, like I said, I think the

425
00:37:54,480 --> 00:37:59,239
debate is somewhat moved because what I'm
describing is simply what is happening and whether

426
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:05,239
one likes someone Wilse So, like
I said, legs and media is like

427
00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:10,719
like the written letter, like mailing
letsons more a quill of pen or something

428
00:38:12,519 --> 00:38:17,079
versus email. It's not that there
are no more letters, but femails fast

429
00:38:17,079 --> 00:38:22,320
and more efficient, faster, And
that's just it's legs. The media is

430
00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,679
just an old technology. I think
it's kind of absurd that we print out

431
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:34,840
newspapers still. After all. Assign
and my son Saxon, he was of

432
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:39,800
beings profound observations in the world,
was sort of walking through the airport and

433
00:38:39,880 --> 00:38:45,440
saw it was a Wall Street journal
or something that had like, you know

434
00:38:45,519 --> 00:38:47,360
that the bad Day's stage printed on
it. And he was like, wow,

435
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:50,960
how did they How do they know
it was today? I was like,

436
00:38:51,039 --> 00:38:55,000
let's Saxon, they print that out
every day. They make the newspaper

437
00:38:55,039 --> 00:39:00,840
every day. It's like what you
know, seeking so to see the absurdity

438
00:39:00,840 --> 00:39:07,159
of a child like they've print this
out every day, its justs and and

439
00:39:07,159 --> 00:39:09,440
and then then he said, well, they're probably just they probably just read

440
00:39:09,480 --> 00:39:13,800
the Internet and printed out. And
I said, yes, that is indeed

441
00:39:13,840 --> 00:39:20,159
what most newspapers dot. It is
such a good descriptions are very good at

442
00:39:20,159 --> 00:39:22,800
this. I have to say they
discerned things in the most simple honest wee,

443
00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:30,559
Well, you're the vast majority of
news is they read something on the

444
00:39:30,559 --> 00:39:35,599
internet, write an article in print
at print it out. So that's just

445
00:39:35,639 --> 00:39:38,000
the vast majority of news. So
abus and very often it has had some

446
00:39:38,199 --> 00:39:45,880
expost that they're writing an article about
Yeah, that's look I I I certainly

447
00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:50,880
have my criticisms. I'm also,
you know, a biased observer given that

448
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:53,320
I am a writer, so you
know, I am a little invested,

449
00:39:53,360 --> 00:39:58,960
a little invested in saving journalism in
some way. Though I do think there's

450
00:39:59,119 --> 00:40:02,159
ways to move forward that are different
than what is now because it's not working

451
00:40:02,199 --> 00:40:07,480
as well as I wish it was. But one thing that I noticed,

452
00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,280
like, so you engange a lot
on this platform. You know, you

453
00:40:09,320 --> 00:40:14,920
were very active. Everyone knows apparently
I don't. I don't even want to

454
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:19,440
guess how much time you spend,
you know, in the Golden stool tweeting.

455
00:40:19,519 --> 00:40:25,159
But but in terms of one thing
that you have is as the owner

456
00:40:25,199 --> 00:40:30,639
of this plat worn and you know, somebody with a big following is that

457
00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:36,480
you can amplify both certain ideas people
and you do, and you know,

458
00:40:36,559 --> 00:40:40,440
I know there's been a lot of
criticism in particular both about the ideas that

459
00:40:40,519 --> 00:40:47,079
you choose to amplify and the people
that maybe you know might have checker past

460
00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:53,119
so whatnot when the same point could
potentially be made without them? And I'm

461
00:40:53,159 --> 00:40:57,000
just wondering, like, how much
thought do you even put into that?

462
00:40:57,199 --> 00:41:00,400
Do you do you think, oh, I can't meet this this person and

463
00:41:01,159 --> 00:41:04,840
you know, I'm not gonna not
a literal notz but you know what I

464
00:41:04,920 --> 00:41:09,159
mean? Or or because or are
people like how much thoughts do you give

465
00:41:09,199 --> 00:41:22,400
this at all? Well? This
is like may sound sort of esoteric,

466
00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:28,840
but like what I'm really trying to
achieve here is to prove the signals noise

467
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:32,320
of the collective consciousness. So uh
and and the and the bad word.

468
00:41:32,519 --> 00:41:38,920
I can think of like the your
next platform as being you know, all

469
00:41:38,960 --> 00:41:44,280
these humans connected in the same way
some similar way to to the to a

470
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:50,199
collection of neurons in the brain.
You want to improve how you know,

471
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:59,880
the your increased signal or reduced noise
and just just have that collective brain being

472
00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:06,039
be better. Uh. This is
why when you think of that way,

473
00:42:06,559 --> 00:42:12,079
the absurdity of legacy media becomes apparent
because it's slow and it goes through a

474
00:42:12,159 --> 00:42:19,079
future points. Number of articles is
tiny. It's just just obviously not the

475
00:42:19,119 --> 00:42:28,400
future. So I'm trying to create
here, like the over time, a

476
00:42:28,519 --> 00:42:37,960
collector consciousness that I can think well
clearly, that can think faster, that

477
00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:45,960
that can reach more acurate conclusions.
That's the goal. It sounds so esoteric,

478
00:42:45,000 --> 00:42:51,079
but that is that is what I'm
trying to achieve. Here is a

479
00:42:51,199 --> 00:42:57,079
a better collective consciousness. Are you
trying to move the obrigin then window?

480
00:43:00,119 --> 00:43:07,760
Sir? Whichmond the overgin? I
don't know how English is my third language?

481
00:43:07,800 --> 00:43:15,360
Sorry, I guess is really a
good yes? Let me speak quite

482
00:43:15,360 --> 00:43:22,920
well? Thank you? What for
us to well? Okay, So I'm

483
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:29,039
curious, like so, for example, you you once tweeted a meme by

484
00:43:29,079 --> 00:43:32,440
Colin Wright about how you don't feel
like you moved from the left politically,

485
00:43:32,519 --> 00:43:37,599
that essentially the left left chain,
And you know, I think there's definitely

486
00:43:37,599 --> 00:43:43,760
a lot at to that because you
know, affecting when we talk about something

487
00:43:43,880 --> 00:43:52,840
like what they said it was a
pretty liberal indeed it now and I'm wondering,

488
00:43:52,920 --> 00:43:57,360
like, you know, but you
seem to be one thing that you

489
00:43:57,400 --> 00:44:06,400
do, you tend to focus more
on things that might be associated with issues

490
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:10,960
that might be associated more with the
culture wards what people call the culture boards,

491
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:16,639
and not necessarily focusing as much as
on things like they housing or prison

492
00:44:16,679 --> 00:44:22,840
reform or whatever you know, matter
to you. Do you find that is

493
00:44:22,960 --> 00:44:24,840
like? Is there truth to that? Do you feel like you've moved a

494
00:44:24,840 --> 00:44:29,239
little bit as well? And are
you trying to ship the conversation at all

495
00:44:29,360 --> 00:44:35,840
to somewhere where we can discuss something
really well. I mean that there's why

496
00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,119
my personal account and then there's the
company. I'm going to say what I

497
00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:43,239
what I want to say on my
you know, postal account, and I

498
00:44:43,239 --> 00:44:47,679
said that before acquiring the company.
I was most interacted with the account on

499
00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:53,519
the Twitter platform before the acquisition.
So you know, I'm not going to

500
00:44:54,159 --> 00:44:59,280
I'm going to say what I want
to say. Not to do otherwise would

501
00:44:59,320 --> 00:45:05,519
be hypocritical, And I'm not going
to inhibit my freedom of speech when I've

502
00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:09,119
literally tried to improve greadom with speech
that that would be absurd. However,

503
00:45:09,639 --> 00:45:16,519
Uh, I'm not denying voice to
those on the left. In fact,

504
00:45:16,559 --> 00:45:21,440
I don't know of a single I
can make bestomology. There's not a single

505
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:27,199
prominent left bring account that has been
silenced, including some very extreme left wing

506
00:45:27,239 --> 00:45:31,599
accounts. So if there are,
I'd love to know what that will unsuspend

507
00:45:31,639 --> 00:45:37,840
them. I'm mistaken now, No. But now what we have done though

508
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:44,280
is we're not uh engaged in aggressive
censorship of what today is called the right.

509
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:45,800
And I think, you know,
not that long ago would have been

510
00:45:45,840 --> 00:45:52,480
called the water at left, So
that you know, towards the end that

511
00:45:52,119 --> 00:45:59,360
Twitter was really very aggressively censoring anyone
on the on the right. I've said

512
00:45:59,400 --> 00:46:06,559
deep platform sitting sitting president, and
and so you had massive censorship of anyone

513
00:46:06,559 --> 00:46:09,719
on the right. Uh where ten
times when he accounts the right were being

514
00:46:10,079 --> 00:46:14,119
suspended as counts on the left.
And in fact, the only reason they

515
00:46:14,199 --> 00:46:16,920
was suspending count of the left is
when there was an argument between two segments

516
00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:21,280
of the left. And it just
sounds one of the segments of the left

517
00:46:21,280 --> 00:46:25,000
because an argument between two groups of
the left. You know, so like

518
00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:30,880
Bernie Sanders was Hllary Clinton type of
thing, so uh you know, so

519
00:46:30,880 --> 00:46:37,760
so then you know what appears to
be well, I guess it's it's not

520
00:46:37,800 --> 00:46:39,760
really an appearance of liver to the
right. The platform has moved to the

521
00:46:39,840 --> 00:46:45,119
right because it was so far to
the left before. And in order to

522
00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:50,360
properly represent the whole country and living
the whole world, you have to be

523
00:46:50,920 --> 00:46:54,239
you have to be balanced, you
have to allow the right to the left.

524
00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:58,920
And sometimes these you know, definitions
don't put exactly into a right or

525
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:02,519
left, they're just do you have
allowed both sides with bay to flourish.

526
00:47:04,039 --> 00:47:08,559
And previously, you know, previously
under the prior, prior censorship regime,

527
00:47:09,519 --> 00:47:15,960
they they did their best to suppress
even water right will week so and like

528
00:47:16,000 --> 00:47:24,920
so today's today's right waring honestly is
was was was yesterday's water left so so,

529
00:47:25,079 --> 00:47:27,920
like I said, so, it
may appear like always wearing to the

530
00:47:27,960 --> 00:47:31,840
right, but all we're doing is
is being even handed and enabling a level

531
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:37,360
playing field for for all flights of
youth than our leading. Yeah, I

532
00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:40,559
think, And I think one thing
is that you've been criticized where the top

533
00:47:40,599 --> 00:47:45,280
one you've been criticize the lot we're
coming. You know, it's very kind

534
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:50,800
of speech that people find very offensive. And I think part I don't know.

535
00:47:50,880 --> 00:47:53,239
I can't measure if it's hyeing the
global but all I can say I

536
00:47:53,639 --> 00:47:59,880
have spirit state. That's said.
I also think of what people throughout the

537
00:48:00,159 --> 00:48:05,519
might common they they gravitate to one, to the platform where they feel like

538
00:48:05,559 --> 00:48:14,039
they want to be thrown off.
That might be believe that's so. I

539
00:48:14,039 --> 00:48:16,599
don't know if it's like the platforms
issue so much as it's like, as

540
00:48:16,599 --> 00:48:21,960
soon as you allow sort of free
speech, a degree of free speech,

541
00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:29,079
people gravitate towards that, and that's
just human nature. Yeah. Well,

542
00:48:30,159 --> 00:48:35,239
free speech, I think obviously is
meaningless less people you don't like are not

543
00:48:35,360 --> 00:48:39,800
to say things don't like. Otherwise
it loses I just lose all meaning.

544
00:48:42,760 --> 00:48:46,840
And uh, you know, if
if people want to move to another platform,

545
00:48:47,400 --> 00:48:52,400
uh, they're well do so they're
not changed to the X platform.

546
00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:57,880
They will move any any time where
they can duel boats or whatever they want

547
00:48:57,920 --> 00:49:04,119
to do it. If we do
if we do a bad job of creating

548
00:49:04,159 --> 00:49:08,719
a level plank build or or even
that that is perceived to not be a

549
00:49:08,800 --> 00:49:14,679
level plank build up, obviously people
will leave and they will post elsewhere.

550
00:49:15,840 --> 00:49:21,679
But in fact, we have seen
record usage of the system, and and

551
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:25,599
the lorms that I pay worse attentioned
to the the user seconds as reported by

552
00:49:25,719 --> 00:49:31,559
iOS and Android. That's the most
rigorous assessment of usage. It's easy to

553
00:49:31,679 --> 00:49:36,800
sort of write a lot of bots
on a PC, but it's much harder

554
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:42,119
to do so on iOS or you
know, iOS androids. So you know,

555
00:49:42,119 --> 00:49:47,440
we're just we've seen a roughly twenty
thirty percent grace. It's actually ruptly

556
00:49:47,519 --> 00:49:53,440
proportion to the decrease and the legacy
media view so legs, I think thanks

557
00:49:53,440 --> 00:50:01,639
the media, yeah, fully formerly
known as mainstream media. I saw I

558
00:50:01,639 --> 00:50:07,519
think a twenty thirty percent drop in
viewership last year, and we saw a

559
00:50:07,559 --> 00:50:14,719
corresponding increase, So as we're doing
something right. And I mean to me

560
00:50:14,800 --> 00:50:19,960
that the platform seems very alive.
We see more and more plantate creators made

561
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:25,280
more adding a tremendous value to the
to the system and written form and video,

562
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:37,920
and and I think I think it's
very healthy for ensuring the you know

563
00:50:38,119 --> 00:50:45,159
that that the walk pursuit and people's
voice is heard. I think things were

564
00:50:45,239 --> 00:50:49,719
very well actually, So that's that's
my perception. Least I could be obviously

565
00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:58,480
raw, but it's it's it seems
very good and I like I said,

566
00:50:58,719 --> 00:51:01,920
you know, encourage people on the
left or from all parts of the political

567
00:51:01,960 --> 00:51:09,719
respectrum to continue to add their voice
to the X platform. And and you

568
00:51:09,760 --> 00:51:14,599
know, uh, you know,
rather than be that than sort of leave

569
00:51:14,639 --> 00:51:20,840
in a huff, it's better to
rebut you know, arguments you disagree with

570
00:51:21,199 --> 00:51:23,760
on the X platform where the right
left or in the middle likesit. I

571
00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:30,440
think the whole right left definitions it's
an arbitrary but here to have a to

572
00:51:30,480 --> 00:51:37,079
have a healthy debate various spade.
And and that doesn't mean that at times

573
00:51:37,119 --> 00:51:42,320
you will read things that offend you, in fact, but that's you should

574
00:51:42,360 --> 00:51:44,880
bet a wast thing. It's actually
good that I'm reading some things that offend

575
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:49,280
me because that thing is free speeches
a lot. And that means that if

576
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:52,400
I say something that offends others,
I won't be shut down. That you

577
00:51:52,519 --> 00:51:58,079
give me a break covered. But
it's also good to sometimes it is good

578
00:51:58,079 --> 00:52:01,239
to be offended or offend because to
make you think through ideas a little bit

579
00:52:01,280 --> 00:52:06,559
better and wonter. Okay, why
am I offended? I'm sure? Why

580
00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:09,440
is somebody else offended by this idea? And how do they have points?

581
00:52:09,519 --> 00:52:17,519
Or are they you know, are
they Yeah, exactly, So you're sort

582
00:52:17,519 --> 00:52:23,639
of an encouraged people to say.
I mean, many times I'll read things

583
00:52:23,639 --> 00:52:28,000
on the platform I'm quite offended and
and I'm like, wait a second,

584
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:31,679
but that's actually, you know,
it's good because I should be offendive.

585
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:38,159
I'm not reading things that occasionally more
than more than occasionally actually that I disagree

586
00:52:38,199 --> 00:52:43,760
with and uh, and that might
change my mind once for a while.

587
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:47,960
I think it's important to always be
open minded. They'll be too sort of

588
00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:53,480
set in your beliefs because the odds
that you are right about everything are zero.

589
00:52:55,360 --> 00:52:59,920
That's why I said, if like, did you believe that everything you'll

590
00:53:00,000 --> 00:53:04,360
political party says it's true, you're
full rightly, and anyone who just doesn't,

591
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,559
you know, there's going to be
things that your political party says that

592
00:53:08,599 --> 00:53:15,800
are at least sometimes untrue. We're
inaccurate, and so you want to,

593
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:19,559
you know, take things with a
grain of salt. And I don't think

594
00:53:19,599 --> 00:53:22,199
of it too much like it's not
as people think. It's sort of in

595
00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:25,719
a tribal way where you know,
their political parties like their sports team and

596
00:53:25,719 --> 00:53:32,039
you can do no wrong. But
but really obviously it can. It's nobody

597
00:53:32,199 --> 00:53:38,719
beasts a thousand to use this personology, so you know, so she wants

598
00:53:38,719 --> 00:53:42,400
to be prepared to accept that.
Yeah, you know, I'm not saying

599
00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:45,320
you should change political parties, but
that your political body will be wrong on

600
00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:49,519
some issues. You won't be disaal
disagreeful on some issues. Definitely need to

601
00:53:49,559 --> 00:53:53,079
be able to criticize. These political
parties are political parties because that's how they

602
00:53:53,119 --> 00:53:58,159
would change. Right, If you
don't criticize, they're not going to change.

603
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:00,719
And just one corruption, there is
one human in the universe that never

604
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:14,880
gets anything wrong. That's me.
Well, yeah, I mean, yeah,

605
00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:23,639
you're stunning. I can tell.
Well, I'm not completely unable to

606
00:54:23,679 --> 00:54:32,920
detect spot sarcasm, so or uh, I mean, I find, as

607
00:54:32,960 --> 00:54:37,760
you know, the old right get
the less I think that I know,

608
00:54:39,840 --> 00:54:46,920
and I you know, I would
say I get like the less certainly animal

609
00:54:47,039 --> 00:54:52,039
like things. And the more I
realized there was roble about the stunning.

610
00:54:52,079 --> 00:54:59,519
The other thing, I encouraged people
to sort of like trying to try to

611
00:54:59,559 --> 00:55:05,360
be more when minded as you get
older, not less. Well, I

612
00:55:05,400 --> 00:55:07,400
know you said that you very much. You know you want to be able

613
00:55:07,440 --> 00:55:13,079
to use your free speech. But
one thing your free speech does amplify it,

614
00:55:13,119 --> 00:55:15,840
and so like I know that if
I you know, if I read

615
00:55:15,920 --> 00:55:22,119
an article like my my free speech
in right clearly have more implement than who

616
00:55:22,119 --> 00:55:29,679
doesn't have. And you know,
especially when it comes to something like saying

617
00:55:29,840 --> 00:55:35,079
you common and a lot of things
like say geopolitics, right, do you

618
00:55:35,119 --> 00:55:38,400
feel a level of responsibility that comes
with the influence that you hold? Do

619
00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:42,800
you? Or do you just hold
yourself to the exact same standard as any

620
00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:50,760
other even on this platform. Well, I mean I try to speak my

621
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:53,000
mind. I mean I try to
say what I know, what I believe.

622
00:55:54,119 --> 00:55:58,559
Let's not say that what I believe
is that's really true. It's gonna

623
00:55:58,559 --> 00:56:01,920
be around some degree. And if
I am wrong, I try to correct

624
00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:07,239
it. If others haven't already corrected
it, or community notes is not correcting

625
00:56:07,239 --> 00:56:12,559
it. You know, there's there's
no special like I don't have the ability

626
00:56:12,559 --> 00:56:16,119
to start the community note on on
my account or anyone else's. It's just

627
00:56:16,159 --> 00:56:21,480
important the community notes. All the
quote is open source, all the data

628
00:56:21,519 --> 00:56:25,119
is open source, so you can
recreate whether any given note will be visible,

629
00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:29,719
and so you can immediately tell if
if I had a thumb on the

630
00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:32,800
sale, you could see my thumb
very clearly. So these people asked me

631
00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:35,960
to get rid of a community notes, and I say, like, look,

632
00:56:35,960 --> 00:56:40,920
I literally cannot get rid of a
community note on on my account or

633
00:56:40,920 --> 00:56:45,239
anyone's account. Well, you get
a whole lot of them, so I

634
00:56:45,320 --> 00:56:49,000
believe you. Yeah, I've got
in a bunch of community notes, So

635
00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,199
I mean I do. I do
bost lots, So there's gonna be some

636
00:56:55,280 --> 00:57:01,320
proportionality too. It's like about a
average going back batting average thing. You're

637
00:57:01,320 --> 00:57:07,000
going to have, well, community
notes if you post a lot more,

638
00:57:07,480 --> 00:57:13,559
you know, like you think of
like you notes or horror battles or wrongness

639
00:57:13,719 --> 00:57:17,119
is going to be. You know, if you post a thousand things and

640
00:57:17,199 --> 00:57:22,880
get tampas out of them wrong,
you know you've gone one hundred wrong things.

641
00:57:22,920 --> 00:57:27,239
If you said there post only one
hundred things and the wrong you only

642
00:57:27,320 --> 00:57:34,559
have ten wrong things. So you're
just looking at yah seeing how many posts,

643
00:57:34,719 --> 00:57:38,239
what percentage of those we're wrong,
want, how many we're all in

644
00:57:38,519 --> 00:57:45,920
the absolute? So I do much
a lot, but I think generally,

645
00:57:45,880 --> 00:57:52,880
I think I think my accuracy is
pretty good, right well, and they're

646
00:57:52,960 --> 00:57:54,840
your opinion, so I mean some
of it. I don't think we can

647
00:57:54,960 --> 00:57:59,639
say this is right or wrong.
I can vement needs, disagree with you,

648
00:57:59,719 --> 00:58:02,599
which I do, and a number
of things. But but you know,

649
00:58:04,079 --> 00:58:08,920
I I there's subjective things that I
can't say. You know, you're

650
00:58:08,960 --> 00:58:14,519
you're absolutely wrong and I'm absolutely right. I just believe that I'm always right.

651
00:58:14,559 --> 00:58:17,719
So that's this is another circuit.
We need a sarcasm to dector device,

652
00:58:17,880 --> 00:58:23,480
Like don't you have like this company
that releases like burnt hair and blow

653
00:58:23,599 --> 00:58:31,440
torches that could be like a sarcasm
sarcasm director detector could be your next gadget.

654
00:58:31,719 --> 00:58:39,000
How do you feel about that?
I think my idea is actually I

655
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:44,679
think a good AI can detect sarcasm
pretty well, certainly if it's if it's

656
00:58:44,679 --> 00:58:51,639
spoken. It's a little lot of
to detect sarcasm in written form. So

657
00:58:52,239 --> 00:59:00,159
the tone usually it's sarcast spoken.
But uh, my mother is saying is

658
00:59:00,199 --> 00:59:07,199
like every time you're sadcasting you lose
a bread that happened to me a lot.

659
00:59:07,239 --> 00:59:12,039
Well do you think that Brock?
Because you've mentioned that Grock is motivated

660
00:59:12,079 --> 00:59:16,599
by truth seeking curiosity, How do
you think you can help? So that's

661
00:59:16,639 --> 00:59:20,480
the goal, So how do you
think it can help? A platform like

662
00:59:20,599 --> 00:59:23,840
acts do you think AI can help
users be more accurate in what they'd say,

663
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:29,639
maybe by suggesting, hey, you
know, this thing didn't happen in

664
00:59:29,639 --> 00:59:34,360
the year in nineteen sixty eight,
it happened in nineteen seventy seven or something

665
00:59:34,440 --> 00:59:37,239
like that. One. It's a
factual correction. Do you see it being

666
00:59:37,320 --> 00:59:42,679
used that way? Yeah, absolutely
so. But they're used in Brock Block

667
00:59:42,719 --> 00:59:46,400
quite five, which hopefully is only
a few weeks away. We'll have the

668
00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:52,519
sort of the the ability to do
brought to do analysis like the one that

669
00:59:52,559 --> 01:00:00,280
says Rock analysis kind of like Wilsk
analysis like the Baguin and and then Grock

670
01:00:00,320 --> 01:00:07,760
can tell you whether these the sort
of look at the whole thread of what

671
01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:14,679
you know, look at an entire
sort of threat of replies and sum up

672
01:00:14,719 --> 01:00:21,039
what you know. It's best guess
what the truth is and if there are

673
01:00:21,039 --> 01:00:24,320
any errors, as well as to
help people in creating posts, as when

674
01:00:24,320 --> 01:00:29,920
you're when you're writing a post,
if you want a bit of help from

675
01:00:30,199 --> 01:00:35,800
Grock, then this should be able
to know that helps you craft or check

676
01:00:35,920 --> 01:00:42,440
or enhance a post. That would
be pretty useful. And and then when

677
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:45,760
you do see a paining voice to
be able to easily say, well,

678
01:00:45,800 --> 01:00:51,440
tell me what the revital to this
would be and say, you know,

679
01:00:52,519 --> 01:01:00,599
yeah, that that I think will
be quite useful. And yeah, we'll

680
01:01:00,719 --> 01:01:10,239
sort of errate towards something that is
as helpless possible level and bringing accuracy,

681
01:01:10,400 --> 01:01:15,480
get getting into the sort of as
close to the whole truth, the truth,

682
01:01:15,519 --> 01:01:19,239
the whole truth, and ideally nothing
with truth and nothing but the truth.

683
01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:22,119
But it is hard, but we've
at least reduce the percentage that is

684
01:01:22,199 --> 01:01:27,559
uncool. I have a competing product. I don't know if you're where.

685
01:01:27,639 --> 01:01:34,000
It's called cat GYBT. Hello,
Leila, I am catchy BT and I

686
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:40,360
grops ass mm hmmm. So it's
it's the sarcastic model of AI, that's

687
01:01:40,400 --> 01:01:49,199
what it is. But in terms
of like you know, obviously AI can

688
01:01:49,239 --> 01:01:52,280
be used for good for evil,
and I think we're going to be seeing

689
01:01:52,320 --> 01:01:54,639
We're already seeing a lot more deep
fakes. I think a lot of video

690
01:01:54,719 --> 01:02:00,719
generated content images and a lot of
that is being used to influence and I

691
01:02:00,719 --> 01:02:04,599
mean there's already been so many influenced
campaigns from different countries. There's been a

692
01:02:04,639 --> 01:02:07,960
lot of research on that, and
today there's things that we can look at,

693
01:02:07,039 --> 01:02:09,559
we can look at AI. You
know, maybe the hands that there's

694
01:02:09,679 --> 01:02:14,440
you know, six fingers. I
think that's a very rare genetic disorder,

695
01:02:14,519 --> 01:02:17,119
so we can rule that out as
being a real human. I think there's

696
01:02:17,159 --> 01:02:22,639
a lot of ways that we little
tail signs, right, but I think

697
01:02:22,679 --> 01:02:28,800
that's going to be more and more
increasingly difficult. So how do you see

698
01:02:28,840 --> 01:02:31,880
us navigating this? And are we
going to be a society with zero trust

699
01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:40,079
because we can't even trust you know, a picture or video. Well,

700
01:02:42,079 --> 01:02:46,079
I think very quickly on the X
system, if something is AI generated or

701
01:02:46,119 --> 01:02:50,880
true, you will see in the
replies, if not in community notes that

702
01:02:51,000 --> 01:02:59,559
it is AI generator or not.
I yet to be really well by,

703
01:03:00,159 --> 01:03:02,559
you know, any any significance.
I think the only one that that I

704
01:03:02,599 --> 01:03:07,800
think well me was that the which
I think retrospect was with Silly the Pope

705
01:03:07,800 --> 01:03:13,679
and the Papa jacket, which you
know is not really going to be wearing

706
01:03:13,679 --> 01:03:17,800
a popajacket in the middle of summer
in Italy. It's a good warm but

707
01:03:17,840 --> 01:03:22,000
it did look good. I don't
know, I haven't really Can you think

708
01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:31,079
of some examples of uh aijerriators stuff
that wasn't like immediately corrected? No,

709
01:03:31,519 --> 01:03:35,960
I think right now, I mean
I wouldn't know if it wasn't immediately corrected.

710
01:03:36,119 --> 01:03:39,119
I think certain things spread for a
long time until they were corrected.

711
01:03:39,239 --> 01:03:45,440
Some things were corrected, But I
think as it gets better, I think

712
01:03:45,440 --> 01:03:49,760
it's going to be more difficult because
social media platforms don't really have a way

713
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:52,960
of, say, detecting that this
is in the AI generated you know,

714
01:03:53,599 --> 01:03:58,880
video or image, and so that's
something that leaves a lot of room for

715
01:03:59,599 --> 01:04:01,800
again falsities, and like, you
know, for me, you know,

716
01:04:01,880 --> 01:04:06,960
I want I want people to make
their decisions based on as much accurate information

717
01:04:08,039 --> 01:04:11,000
as they can, even if it's
not the same decision that I'm making.

718
01:04:11,559 --> 01:04:17,280
In this stems in the way I
think, Well, that's why I always

719
01:04:17,360 --> 01:04:25,280
usually ask for examples of things like
rather than have you know, what one

720
01:04:25,280 --> 01:04:29,159
can sort of voice fake is what
might happen in the future. But you

721
01:04:29,199 --> 01:04:30,320
know this, one can think of
a lot of examples as a present.

722
01:04:31,079 --> 01:04:36,719
It remains simply a fear of what
might happen in the future, you know,

723
01:04:36,719 --> 01:04:40,559
And if there are corey examples of
the present, then perhaps there's something

724
01:04:40,599 --> 01:04:45,599
we can do about it. I'm
just saying that I have rarely see some

725
01:04:45,719 --> 01:04:49,840
sort of AI generated thing that that
whether there's not an immediate direction in the

726
01:04:49,880 --> 01:04:57,320
comments or a communely need. Yeah, well, I think this is something

727
01:04:57,320 --> 01:05:00,800
that a lot of people that feel
about. Trying to figure altitud is not

728
01:05:00,880 --> 01:05:05,639
an easy problem to solved beyond say
community, because it's going to be hard

729
01:05:06,119 --> 01:05:10,719
to identify. But one thing you
said previously, he said, you know

730
01:05:10,760 --> 01:05:15,639
you really want to make X the
everything app, And you know I can

731
01:05:15,679 --> 01:05:20,239
see that as being potentially also a
way to be less reliant on one revenue

732
01:05:20,239 --> 01:05:27,639
stream, so advertising revenue stream,
which which I think supports your your dedication

733
01:05:27,719 --> 01:05:31,519
to freedom of speech. But is
there you know, is there a particular

734
01:05:31,559 --> 01:05:35,840
reason beyond that, if that's even
the part of the reason. Is there

735
01:05:35,840 --> 01:05:41,800
a reason that you want X to
be for everything and not just for speech

736
01:05:44,599 --> 01:05:50,000
to me, be including video,
i' let's try that. What you mean,

737
01:05:50,639 --> 01:05:54,039
well, because because I know one
thing, you want it to be

738
01:05:54,159 --> 01:05:58,480
able, You want people to be
able to make safe financial transactions on the

739
01:05:58,519 --> 01:06:01,320
app. Then you've got brock ai, so you've got a lot of different

740
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:06,719
elements, not just say video and
spaces and text. You want it to

741
01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:13,039
do a lot more than that.
So I'm wondering what the reason for that

742
01:06:13,199 --> 01:06:20,039
is. I just think it would
be useful. So it's not useful,

743
01:06:20,119 --> 01:06:23,960
pia one use it, but if
it is useful, they will. So

744
01:06:24,039 --> 01:06:30,719
I'm trying to make the most useful
platform on the Internet. And yeah,

745
01:06:30,840 --> 01:06:38,519
so I think I think so all
in one happen is pretty useful. That

746
01:06:38,559 --> 01:06:44,920
could be wrong if I'm wrong,
one use it. So that's your motivation,

747
01:06:45,119 --> 01:06:50,760
is like the usefulness of things?
Yeah, interesting generally, the further

748
01:06:50,840 --> 01:07:00,039
it's of civilization in pursuit of a
more enlightened future. Do you see I

749
01:07:00,079 --> 01:07:05,000
mean, I think a lot of
people have lost trust in institutions, and

750
01:07:05,039 --> 01:07:09,639
I think not just you know,
media, but many institutions. Do you

751
01:07:09,639 --> 01:07:14,079
see a path forward where people can
regain that trust? What what do you

752
01:07:14,079 --> 01:07:21,480
think can be done to do that? Well? I think people shouldn't trust

753
01:07:21,519 --> 01:07:30,480
institutions, or they should trust institutions
fortunate to the accuracy what those institutions have

754
01:07:30,639 --> 01:07:36,280
said in the past. So if
they are you know, if they if

755
01:07:36,320 --> 01:07:44,920
they an institution as a track record
of being wrong or deceptive, then the

756
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:49,599
reputation will you know that that reputation
is that that's the reptation are going to

757
01:07:49,599 --> 01:07:57,840
have over time, and so canny
given institutions group the public trust. They

758
01:07:57,880 --> 01:08:03,400
need to be more accurate than truthful, and then over time there there pat

759
01:08:03,440 --> 01:08:10,199
will improve. Now it is true
that there's an asymmetryl there and that you

760
01:08:10,239 --> 01:08:17,119
can destroy reputational a lot. It's
far easier to destroy a reputation for truthless

761
01:08:17,159 --> 01:08:23,359
than it is to create one.
And so so if you if you saw

762
01:08:23,399 --> 01:08:26,840
it, just like a like products, if the company mature products and the

763
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:33,000
product quality suffers, even briefly,
it takes a long time with four consumers

764
01:08:33,520 --> 01:08:39,640
believe you gain about your product quality. You know, like the American water

765
01:08:39,640 --> 01:08:44,880
industry had that problem where the quality
of cars was just fearner to Jafese cars

766
01:08:44,920 --> 01:08:49,680
in the nearly eighties and nineties,
and it took really a few decades before

767
01:08:50,279 --> 01:08:57,399
that perception was of American wires something
worse. Quality was stressed. And it

768
01:08:57,960 --> 01:09:00,920
might even not probably not even today. It's playing not full the rest.

769
01:09:00,399 --> 01:09:06,239
So you know, well said you
can take a lot of time to buil

770
01:09:06,239 --> 01:09:10,560
a reputation, five minutes to destroy
it. I think that's three. It

771
01:09:10,640 --> 01:09:15,600
extreme, but let's play extree point
of view. But it's somethin part easier

772
01:09:15,720 --> 01:09:20,119
to damage a reputation of truth than
to create one. No, absolutely.

773
01:09:20,239 --> 01:09:26,119
And the problem also with institutions is
that to function properly as a society,

774
01:09:26,239 --> 01:09:29,720
we do need a level of trust
or it just kind of falls apart,

775
01:09:30,439 --> 01:09:33,159
so it becomes you know, it's
a difficult thing to solve when you lose

776
01:09:33,199 --> 01:09:39,119
that trust regaining it. It's just
incredibly difficult also in terms of trust or

777
01:09:39,199 --> 01:09:43,239
reputation. As you said, you
know, because I've been researching this for

778
01:09:43,399 --> 01:09:48,159
my book. You know, I
was one thing that is really incredibly important

779
01:09:48,239 --> 01:09:54,359
that because we all have this digital
footprint nowadays, right where whereas if your

780
01:09:54,439 --> 01:09:57,479
reputation was destroyed in the past,
you can move to a new town,

781
01:09:58,199 --> 01:10:00,399
you know, change your name,
or move to a new town and maybe

782
01:10:00,479 --> 01:10:04,319
start over. If there were newspaper
articles about you, they would sort of

783
01:10:04,399 --> 01:10:08,840
vanished in a couple of weeks and
that's it. And now, because everything

784
01:10:08,920 --> 01:10:13,079
is digital, anything that's ever said
about you is now forever and follows you

785
01:10:13,199 --> 01:10:18,359
everywhere. That makes it really really
difficult for people, particularly when they're targeted

786
01:10:18,439 --> 01:10:24,800
for those things or even genuine as
deeds that maybe they shouldn't have a lifetime

787
01:10:25,039 --> 01:10:31,039
of suffering from. Well I know
what, I don't know what to do

788
01:10:31,119 --> 01:10:35,159
about that. It is true that
uh, you know, what you say

789
01:10:35,159 --> 01:10:41,560
on the internet lost forever, so
very we'll just need to be a little

790
01:10:41,600 --> 01:10:46,159
more forgiving. Uh, you know, somebody's made a wrong tweet what I

791
01:10:46,199 --> 01:10:53,880
am about most ten years ago that
you know, a little big. Maybe

792
01:10:53,880 --> 01:10:56,760
we should just all them to be
a little more for giving of such things,

793
01:11:00,039 --> 01:11:02,079
you know, when should some people
shouldn't be canceled for. And in

794
01:11:02,199 --> 01:11:04,680
fact, for a while they have
people who are medias were being canceled for

795
01:11:05,800 --> 01:11:13,279
you know, tweeted it thirteen years
ago, which is absurd. So you

796
01:11:13,319 --> 01:11:17,960
know, everyone has what moments or
where they you know, poor something,

797
01:11:19,760 --> 01:11:27,520
perhaps when they're in a bad just
a really bad state of mind or you

798
01:11:27,600 --> 01:11:30,760
know, I don't know. I
think we should have some forgiveness, especially

799
01:11:30,800 --> 01:11:38,520
if people apologize what they are,
you know, the demoships a forgiveness there.

800
01:11:39,560 --> 01:11:43,760
I mean, I will say,
apologize if you Jennine Johnson being wrong,

801
01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:49,640
they needed Johnson being wrong, Never
apologize book. I think it's if

802
01:11:51,800 --> 01:11:57,520
yeah, yeah, you know,
yeah, I don't think you should apologize

803
01:11:57,560 --> 01:12:00,720
if if there's something you used to
it when I was just genuous to progest

804
01:12:00,800 --> 01:12:10,720
with something that you aren't actually sorry
about. So but you know, yeah,

805
01:12:10,760 --> 01:12:15,359
you should be disast in your apology. It's uh. I mean,

806
01:12:15,359 --> 01:12:19,359
we're all just human here and you
let's make mistakes. You know, to

807
01:12:19,520 --> 01:12:30,159
err is human. So if you
know, sometimes we say things in a

808
01:12:30,239 --> 01:12:35,439
hurry or in a like I said
the best say in my animal without initially

809
01:12:35,520 --> 01:12:42,640
knowing all the facts. But then
if you subsequently correct yourself, I think

810
01:12:42,680 --> 01:12:47,159
we should accept that. Yeah.
I think people often say listen, it's

811
01:12:47,279 --> 01:12:53,680
it's it's accountability culture, and I
think the difference there is I think people

812
01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:56,800
should be accountable for the words and
their actions. I certainly don't think they

813
01:12:56,880 --> 01:13:00,840
should be you know, unaccountable for
everything. How whoever, you know,

814
01:13:00,359 --> 01:13:06,079
it gives bred and said something and
they said something a little off, we

815
01:13:06,159 --> 01:13:11,479
would have a little bit of grace. And so people get to the stuck

816
01:13:11,520 --> 01:13:16,039
with the respons of the next day, forever and ever and whatever quite disproportunately

817
01:13:16,159 --> 01:13:20,279
often times. So that is I
think that is a big issue. I

818
01:13:20,359 --> 01:13:29,680
think as a society, like you
know, in prisons, right Viole.

819
01:13:30,359 --> 01:13:41,680
But also because some really duncan and
we're also could be you know, organ

820
01:13:42,039 --> 01:13:45,479
sentence should be impeding to the cine. And so I think we look at

821
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:53,880
sociding the same ms from infancy,
so that is I think it's very similar.

822
01:13:54,199 --> 01:14:00,479
People. You could probably have a
similar approach to that. Okay,

823
01:14:00,479 --> 01:14:14,079
it's true. Okay, all right, you can disagree and child all right.

824
01:14:15,560 --> 01:14:18,039
Well, I'm wondering this is probably
a very we're airing at. But

825
01:14:18,279 --> 01:14:23,000
I know that people worry about the
lot a lot. I'm worried about gene

826
01:14:23,119 --> 01:14:35,039
editing, and I'm wondering, you
know, it's something that isn't all why

827
01:14:36,520 --> 01:14:46,680
you see all that? I'm sorry, I think the connection is unfortunately a

828
01:14:46,720 --> 01:14:51,880
little. I think it's maybe it
was maybe it's me. Can you hear

829
01:14:51,960 --> 01:14:57,600
me better now or no? Yeah, okay, I was just asking about

830
01:14:57,680 --> 01:15:00,760
gene editing and your thoughts on that. It's as far as you know,

831
01:15:00,239 --> 01:15:05,560
editing designer babies as opposed to just
dealing with health consequences, like does that

832
01:15:05,800 --> 01:15:17,680
change our humanity? Well, it
takes a long time to break human I

833
01:15:17,720 --> 01:15:25,199
mean it's twenty years, so I
don't worry too much about gene modification there,

834
01:15:25,359 --> 01:15:28,039
and like somebody making super soldiers,
it will take far too long.

835
01:15:28,800 --> 01:15:31,960
AI is moving at you know,
artificial just moving so much faster than hes

836
01:15:31,960 --> 01:15:36,920
to blessed to grow up. So
I think that's that's really the thing to

837
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:43,000
be concerned about, not whether we're
doing g editing to make people a bit

838
01:15:43,079 --> 01:15:49,199
smarter or make their nit with simple
soldiers. Right, I have one last

839
01:15:49,359 --> 01:15:53,439
question for you. I don't know, and I know I've taken a lot

840
01:15:53,520 --> 01:15:55,760
of time, so I don't want
to keep you. I don't know if

841
01:15:55,760 --> 01:16:01,000
you have any time to take a
couple of audience questions. Okay, great,

842
01:16:01,119 --> 01:16:05,119
I'll ask you one question and then
we'll go to the a few audience

843
01:16:06,000 --> 01:16:11,079
numbers. So my question is,
if you could solve one problem, what

844
01:16:11,199 --> 01:16:30,439
would it be? I guess I
tried it at here in intelligence dramatical Uh

845
01:16:31,600 --> 01:16:36,319
just I guess way of magic?
Want to just make everyone like ten times?

846
01:16:36,359 --> 01:16:42,279
Why do I will do that?
I quite like this one. Actually,

847
01:16:43,800 --> 01:16:47,640
I actually, weirdly enough kind of
like that answer, Sarah, Do

848
01:16:47,720 --> 01:16:51,439
you have a question? Thank you
so fun of you all the time.

849
01:16:51,600 --> 01:16:58,039
So I am, and she's she's
a good person for bringing me up.

850
01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:04,000
Calf and asked you earlier about you
wanting to make X the everything app.

851
01:17:04,680 --> 01:17:10,439
Where do you see X in a
year? Do you see it largely the

852
01:17:10,600 --> 01:17:17,119
same or will it be a completely
different user experience in a year? And

853
01:17:17,640 --> 01:17:23,520
I don't think it's gonna be completely
different, but I will. You'll simply

854
01:17:23,560 --> 01:17:29,600
see a lot more features of functionality. I think we'll have audio video calling,

855
01:17:30,960 --> 01:17:36,199
group group audio video calling, screen
sharing, and all things that want

856
01:17:36,199 --> 01:17:41,680
it stant to this sort of expect
from say it you know, a signal

857
01:17:41,920 --> 01:17:48,199
or WhatsApp or whatever. I think
will be a ideally a wide range of

858
01:17:48,680 --> 01:17:56,159
financial services, and hey it's and
beyond. We'll see a lot more local

859
01:17:56,279 --> 01:18:01,760
content love wal video us, the
mortons to search with thein the excess and

860
01:18:02,079 --> 01:18:10,479
dramatical better. The recommendations, well, the sort of for you recommendations,

861
01:18:11,000 --> 01:18:16,720
where I recently moved to AI based
recon emotions that just give new content that's

862
01:18:16,720 --> 01:18:24,279
not all compelling than uh we the
heuristics or rules of thumb based content recommendations.

863
01:18:24,600 --> 01:18:27,039
So what we have, what what
what what? What we've been doing

864
01:18:27,079 --> 01:18:31,159
over the past year or so is
increasingly not evolved, but AI that has

865
01:18:31,199 --> 01:18:38,520
evolving. The recommended for you posts, which I think people are generally responded

866
01:18:38,560 --> 01:18:43,800
well to. I think people most
people do that the the recommendations are quite

867
01:18:43,840 --> 01:18:47,720
compelling, and they'll do a bit
more are compelling. May I ask one

868
01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:51,680
more quick thing, Oh, I'm
sorry I cut you off. Yeah,

869
01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:56,199
and to I tell me, if
you just agree with ada, and I

870
01:18:56,279 --> 01:19:00,720
would like to have you found the
recommendations and the for you be you know,

871
01:19:00,800 --> 01:19:06,079
more compelling than say a year ago. I would say that the for

872
01:19:06,359 --> 01:19:12,359
you still need some work. Some
of the things that I'm recommended, I

873
01:19:12,479 --> 01:19:18,399
wouldn't say are they would be wasted
user minutes as as you say at times.

874
01:19:19,760 --> 01:19:25,600
But I think it has gotten better
what I really liked and Catherine and

875
01:19:25,760 --> 01:19:31,399
I used it the other day.
We used the ex calling feature and our

876
01:19:31,520 --> 01:19:36,680
sound quality was great, the video
worked great. It worked better for me

877
01:19:36,800 --> 01:19:43,359
than WhatsApp or signal. Do you
see people do you see wanting people to

878
01:19:43,560 --> 01:19:47,520
use that option more. You talked
about not using your cell phone in the

879
01:19:47,640 --> 01:19:56,640
future and only taking calls on X. Will you truly do that? I'll

880
01:19:56,720 --> 01:20:02,199
try, Uh, yeah, I
will try. I mean, the best

881
01:20:02,239 --> 01:20:06,920
way to improve a project to use
it. And if it's you know this,

882
01:20:08,079 --> 01:20:11,479
I think there's still a lot of
functionality we need to improve about our

883
01:20:11,520 --> 01:20:18,000
what everyday calling and yeah, that
so I think. So I'm not gonna

884
01:20:18,279 --> 01:20:25,479
batter my friend the quite yet,
but I'm you know, hopefully, I

885
01:20:25,560 --> 01:20:28,359
think I'll be able to just write
when over around the middle of this year,

886
01:20:29,319 --> 01:20:39,800
and uh, yep, yeah,
And I've been using the X what

887
01:20:39,880 --> 01:20:44,079
do you every day? Calling more
and more of the past few weeks,

888
01:20:45,920 --> 01:20:48,720
and definitely things read to improved,
but it's works pretty well as as you

889
01:20:48,800 --> 01:20:59,520
experience. Thank you, Aaron,
I, thanks Elon for doing the space

890
01:20:59,560 --> 01:21:01,840
with Catherine, and thank you also
for what you've done for free speech on

891
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:08,439
this platform. I'm one of the
private poaintiffs in the Missouri b Biden censorship

892
01:21:08,520 --> 01:21:13,359
lawsuit that's currently before the Supreme Court. We'll have oral arguments on March eighteen.

893
01:21:14,600 --> 01:21:16,640
I co played the jay about Chariti. I think is one of the

894
01:21:16,720 --> 01:21:21,239
scientists that you know, so I
appreciate you opening things up with the Twitter

895
01:21:21,319 --> 01:21:28,199
files to those journalists. And the
platform certainly hasn't proved since you've taken over.

896
01:21:28,880 --> 01:21:32,359
I have noticed, however, since
you stepped down as CEO, and

897
01:21:32,439 --> 01:21:39,640
I understand why you've got a lot
of companies to run that Twitter two point

898
01:21:39,680 --> 01:21:45,600
zero has maybe reverted to Twitter one
point eight one point seven, closer to

899
01:21:45,319 --> 01:21:51,720
what it was before you purchased it. And I also know my own reading

900
01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:57,600
of this is some of it's personnel, but some of it is also just

901
01:21:59,079 --> 01:22:06,119
machine learning that has been outsourced to
third parties and the sort of accumulated code

902
01:22:06,600 --> 01:22:13,439
that you can't exactly wipe the slate
clean and start over with a blank slate.

903
01:22:15,239 --> 01:22:18,119
Given just sort of the nature of
this platform and the accumulated history of

904
01:22:18,159 --> 01:22:23,840
the platform, I guess my question
for you is what can be done about

905
01:22:24,680 --> 01:22:33,640
the but the continued suppression of speech
on this platform there is less a function

906
01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:40,680
maybe of the current personnel, and
more a function of old code that has

907
01:22:40,760 --> 01:22:48,319
been encrusted into the system. Do
you have a game plan to sort of

908
01:22:48,439 --> 01:22:56,520
clean that up in such a way
that the playing field truly becomes level and

909
01:22:56,640 --> 01:23:00,319
we're no longer seeing things like a
follower cap based on content that is constitutionally

910
01:23:00,399 --> 01:23:05,479
protected speech I'm not I'm not talking
about and I will not defend speech that

911
01:23:05,640 --> 01:23:12,000
is not constitutionally protected, but constitutionally
protected speech you know, where it's really

912
01:23:12,119 --> 01:23:15,720
just viewpoint discrimination. I think Twitter
has come a long way under your leadership.

913
01:23:16,239 --> 01:23:19,199
I would like to see it go
sort of all the way under your

914
01:23:19,279 --> 01:23:24,479
leadership, But I understand that's a
sure, that's a pretty gargantuan task,

915
01:23:25,319 --> 01:23:28,319
and so I just like to get
your sense of the lay of the land

916
01:23:28,840 --> 01:23:33,000
and what war can still be done
to make this sort of the best free

917
01:23:33,039 --> 01:23:36,920
speech platform. Well, it is
the best free speech platform out there,

918
01:23:36,960 --> 01:23:42,319
but a better free speech platform that
might not be a high bar. Actually

919
01:23:42,439 --> 01:23:49,920
yeah, yeah, that's right.
Well, you know what short, just

920
01:23:50,039 --> 01:23:55,439
the team and I will be some
things more. I mean I do.

921
01:23:55,760 --> 01:24:02,359
I do still run product development,
excluding the recommendation engine. And you know,

922
01:24:02,560 --> 01:24:06,680
I'm not sort of picking on individual
accounts to remote at all, but

923
01:24:09,000 --> 01:24:14,840
ever, but rather the just try
to improve the quality of recommendations that people

924
01:24:14,960 --> 01:24:20,000
find it need to improve the signal's
noise that you're getting content that you find

925
01:24:20,079 --> 01:24:26,600
to be interesting, informative, funny
and as opposed to you know, boring

926
01:24:26,800 --> 01:24:33,840
or wrong. So any any inface
you can give me that would help me

927
01:24:33,880 --> 01:24:40,279
in that task will be appreciated.
Is there anything you just send me a

928
01:24:40,279 --> 01:24:43,039
specific any anything like if you're in
my position, what would you do?

929
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:47,239
Yeah, well, just from my
own personal experience, you know, once

930
01:24:47,279 --> 01:24:50,079
you get a feel for this app, and if you're posting a lot,

931
01:24:50,359 --> 01:24:54,880
you can sort of set get a
sense of what the algorithm is up to.

932
01:24:55,039 --> 01:24:59,479
Visa be your account, and you
know, I experienced a really hard

933
01:24:59,479 --> 01:25:05,039
and fast under Twitter one point zero
that really got lifted and there was a

934
01:25:05,359 --> 01:25:11,520
totally different feel on the platform within
I would say a month or two of

935
01:25:11,600 --> 01:25:15,000
you taking over and a lot of
the firings that happened, and a lot

936
01:25:15,039 --> 01:25:18,119
of the cleaning house. But you
know, once again, I feel myself

937
01:25:18,279 --> 01:25:24,640
under a follower cap and I'm tweeting
mostly about censorship and free speech, and

938
01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:30,000
I'm focusing my research and my writing
mostly on censorship and free speech. And

939
01:25:30,039 --> 01:25:35,520
you know, I wonder what is
still at work on this platform such that

940
01:25:35,840 --> 01:25:42,960
people like Jay or me or my
other co plaintiffs in the case, credible

941
01:25:43,039 --> 01:25:47,920
doctors and scientists who have, you
know, credible opinions, and you know,

942
01:25:47,960 --> 01:25:54,760
are extra considerable influence now with this
this case that many believe is the

943
01:25:54,800 --> 01:25:59,760
most important free speech case of our
generation because it's related to this new media

944
01:26:00,039 --> 01:26:02,600
for media that you and Catherine have
been talking about. And you know,

945
01:26:02,680 --> 01:26:08,520
I can't say for sure why that
is happening, but something in the algorithm

946
01:26:08,960 --> 01:26:15,159
is putting its thumb on the scales
continuously when you talk about certain controversial issues,

947
01:26:15,880 --> 01:26:20,920
and that may be old stuff deeply
embedded within. You know that the

948
01:26:21,239 --> 01:26:27,479
functioning of the algorithm. It may
be stuff that's been added since you came

949
01:26:27,600 --> 01:26:31,800
on. I'm not a coder.
I'm not a computer scientist, although my

950
01:26:31,920 --> 01:26:35,960
father was. So I can't tell
you exactly what's going on because I don't

951
01:26:36,239 --> 01:26:39,640
have access to the code, and
even if I did, I don't know

952
01:26:39,760 --> 01:26:42,720
that I would be able to interpret
it. But I can't tell you as

953
01:26:42,720 --> 01:26:46,359
a frequent user of this platform and
as someone who's involved and you know,

954
01:26:46,479 --> 01:26:49,840
in the crossairs, so to speak, because I'm a plaintiff in a major

955
01:26:49,960 --> 01:26:55,000
free speech case and i've I'm probably
among the plaintiffs, the one who's written

956
01:26:55,079 --> 01:27:01,720
and published most about Missouri b Biden
that some things restarted again after you took

957
01:27:01,800 --> 01:27:08,079
over. I don't know why.
I don't know if it's human or machine

958
01:27:08,159 --> 01:27:13,680
learning based, but I'm really keen
to get at the bottom of it,

959
01:27:14,399 --> 01:27:17,199
and you know, happy to talk
to you offline if that would be helpful

960
01:27:17,319 --> 01:27:20,920
to try to give you a sense
of my own experience on the platform.

961
01:27:24,920 --> 01:27:32,920
Okay, yeah, I'm looking at
your car right now. So okay,

962
01:27:32,960 --> 01:27:44,079
So one of the changes we're making
that should go live soon is in the

963
01:27:44,159 --> 01:27:50,159
recommended to you were over. We're
WCE and I think a lot of people

964
01:27:50,199 --> 01:27:56,279
may have noticed this. Often there
would be from accounts that you follow,

965
01:27:57,279 --> 01:28:02,319
I don't interact with, you would
see almost no content accounts that you follow

966
01:28:02,399 --> 01:28:09,000
but don't interact with. That's because
we that's because we over we overweighted interaction,

967
01:28:11,199 --> 01:28:15,720
interpreting interaction as well. You like, you like, liking or flying

968
01:28:15,279 --> 01:28:18,279
to an account, and so we're
going to show you a whole bunch more

969
01:28:18,359 --> 01:28:25,640
stuff that you you interact with.
And but but but but there are a

970
01:28:25,680 --> 01:28:30,119
lot of accounts that who will follow
that they don't interact with. They follow

971
01:28:30,199 --> 01:28:35,239
that account for just to learn things. In fact, for a lot of

972
01:28:35,399 --> 01:28:43,720
publications they will follow say a magazine
or or newsormalization, not with the interesting,

973
01:28:43,800 --> 01:28:45,239
not not with the idea of commenting
or liking or anything, but just

974
01:28:45,319 --> 01:28:51,159
because they wish to see upward from
that news organization from that person. And

975
01:28:51,760 --> 01:28:59,720
so we're just in the algorithm actually
to include on more of things that you

976
01:29:00,039 --> 01:29:05,479
all of it don't interact with.
That should help. And that actually is

977
01:29:06,199 --> 01:29:12,960
like for some for some content where
people perhaps afraid to comment on it because

978
01:29:14,439 --> 01:29:19,760
you know that this may be a
medical, spicy content where if somebody doesn't

979
01:29:19,800 --> 01:29:26,640
want to say anything because they're they're
afraid that they may be judged by saying

980
01:29:26,680 --> 01:29:30,079
something. Will like you for the
thing, right, so that I think

981
01:29:30,159 --> 01:29:39,399
that should help. So I think
just sort of like, if we're not

982
01:29:39,479 --> 01:29:41,720
seeing I proven in the next week, week or two, just lett me

983
01:29:41,760 --> 01:29:45,720
know, because this should go a
live I think probably next week. It's

984
01:29:45,720 --> 01:29:48,319
certainly not more than two weeks from
now, and that should help a lot

985
01:29:48,359 --> 01:29:56,800
of accounts that we'll say interesting things, but where people don't turn often interact.

986
01:29:57,800 --> 01:30:00,560
That makes sense. Yeah, thank
you, that's helpful to know.

987
01:30:00,640 --> 01:30:05,039
I'll keep an eye on things.
Thanks. Think we'll go to your boys

988
01:30:05,119 --> 01:30:13,560
doppel ganger next that apparently Alex Jones
thinks, is you to prove Alex Jones

989
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,920
thinks this Yeah, this is part
two. You've met me at least three

990
01:30:17,000 --> 01:30:23,520
times. You're about to dive laughter, aren't you. It's me again?

991
01:30:24,159 --> 01:30:29,000
Yeah, this is this is part
three. That's what. There's nothing,

992
01:30:29,560 --> 01:30:31,880
honestly, there's nothing better than to
hear you loft as much like I can

993
01:30:32,000 --> 01:30:35,079
only imagine they're kind of stressed around
there. Yeah, yeah, dude,

994
01:30:35,560 --> 01:30:40,279
for the past couple of weeks,
I've been I basically, oh god,

995
01:30:40,359 --> 01:30:55,439
I count this. There's eight billion
people on Earth. Yeah, there's someone

996
01:30:55,479 --> 01:31:00,359
who sounds like you so much,
and you are that person. Yes,

997
01:31:00,760 --> 01:31:05,000
it gets worse, It gets worse, It gets so much worse, it

998
01:31:05,119 --> 01:31:11,319
gets so much worse. I don't
believe you're about me. Yeah, that's

999
01:31:11,359 --> 01:31:15,239
the theory. That's the theory people
think. People think I'm legitimately or a

1000
01:31:15,279 --> 01:31:18,439
clone. There's been theories that that
I'm one of your neuralink experiments. Can

1001
01:31:18,479 --> 01:31:21,560
you like clarify that I'm not one
of your neuralink experiments? Or maybe I

1002
01:31:21,640 --> 01:31:27,239
am and I wouldn't realize it.
Okay, because that touch vast. How

1003
01:31:27,279 --> 01:31:34,199
are your monkeys? How are your
that was a test subject. Well.

1004
01:31:34,239 --> 01:31:36,920
The weird thing is you even asked
questions in the way that I would ask

1005
01:31:38,039 --> 01:31:47,680
questions autism, why someone's sense of
humor? It's eerie. Yeah, And

1006
01:31:48,520 --> 01:31:56,560
I still remember the first time.
Oh god, I still remember the first

1007
01:31:56,640 --> 01:32:00,880
time. I still remember the first
time when I the first time I found

1008
01:32:00,880 --> 01:32:05,279
out about you was actually in early
twenty sixteen, and this is when I

1009
01:32:05,359 --> 01:32:11,159
watched SpaceX Rockets rocket Engine experimentations on
YouTube. I was like, Man,

1010
01:32:11,239 --> 01:32:13,840
this is the cool I've ever seen. It's going to be acting all day

1011
01:32:14,000 --> 01:32:16,199
and a significant other actually showed me
a video clip of you and said,

1012
01:32:16,199 --> 01:32:18,560
hey, bra, this guy sounds
like an older version of view. I'm

1013
01:32:18,560 --> 01:32:20,880
like, what do you talk about
here? This guy look at me's talking

1014
01:32:20,880 --> 01:32:26,359
about hydrogen. What do you mean
he's talking about hydrogen. I listened to

1015
01:32:26,439 --> 01:32:29,640
this and I was like, what
is going on? So this is the

1016
01:32:29,680 --> 01:32:32,960
first time I realized that something's up
quite right with this world. Probably is

1017
01:32:33,039 --> 01:32:35,760
like a bug in the simulation,
And even if there was one, I'm

1018
01:32:35,760 --> 01:32:40,520
pretty sure I cause a lot of
disruption recently. As I'm as I'm sure

1019
01:32:40,560 --> 01:32:44,079
you're aware, there's a mass meltdown. There's like an account that's doing rage

1020
01:32:44,119 --> 01:32:48,319
farming, so like it's so good. Like these people, what they've done

1021
01:32:48,399 --> 01:32:53,560
is they're trying to pin on you
that you've suspended an account because a targeted

1022
01:32:54,039 --> 01:32:57,680
A did target harassment, but was
not suspended. They actually deactivated their account.

1023
01:32:57,960 --> 01:33:00,399
Now I tried to do rage farm
me. Now they're going to read

1024
01:33:00,399 --> 01:33:02,239
it on the news everywhere. Be
like, dude, I'm complimenting yourself.

1025
01:33:02,760 --> 01:33:06,560
It's like the stupidest thing I've ever
seen. I was gonna let it happen,

1026
01:33:06,960 --> 01:33:10,319
but then I said, you know
what, I don't want I don't

1027
01:33:10,359 --> 01:33:15,760
want I don't want a Thermo.
I don't want thermo nuclear warfare just yet.

1028
01:33:15,960 --> 01:33:19,239
For me. I like that.
I'm not gonna have that this ever

1029
01:33:19,319 --> 01:33:23,199
since yesterday, Eve though, I
do diabol series everything. It's all over

1030
01:33:23,239 --> 01:33:28,600
the place. It's inescapable now,
it's it's so weird, it's it's terrible.

1031
01:33:30,640 --> 01:33:34,000
I like a uniquely gazed like.
I mean, I'll get pictures with

1032
01:33:34,079 --> 01:33:38,279
you, like, what do you
look like? I've seen, I've seen,

1033
01:33:40,600 --> 01:33:44,640
I've seen Adrian. He could he
could be twin. I mean I

1034
01:33:44,680 --> 01:33:49,479
couldn't. I could d M you, dude, Dude, I could d

1035
01:33:49,640 --> 01:33:54,159
M you. If you enable enable
access, I'll tell you everything you need

1036
01:33:54,199 --> 01:33:58,880
to know five minutes. I'll tell
you everything, if you're interested, if

1037
01:33:58,880 --> 01:34:02,600
you're interested. With you guys revealing
each other, that would be pretty fun.

1038
01:34:02,640 --> 01:34:08,359
Oh god, yes, we should
also get that guy from China.

1039
01:34:09,000 --> 01:34:11,840
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I've
been thinking about this guy. That would

1040
01:34:11,880 --> 01:34:14,640
be the weirdest thing ever. That's
the Holy Trifactor, you know, the

1041
01:34:14,720 --> 01:34:23,199
Holy Trinity for three of you.
Yeah. I don't know is that guy

1042
01:34:23,359 --> 01:34:27,600
real? Because that guy, I'm
not sure. Maybe maybe he has had

1043
01:34:27,640 --> 01:34:31,560
some facial modifications. He looks strikingly
real, I would say, I mean

1044
01:34:31,840 --> 01:34:35,920
he fakes maybe because the resolution is
kind of ship. But I don't know,

1045
01:34:36,199 --> 01:34:40,039
you know, I don't know that
there are vary as many say,

1046
01:34:40,119 --> 01:34:42,680
say Elvis, Elvis in person,
I was out there right and they would

1047
01:34:43,079 --> 01:34:46,479
modify their facial structure to look like
him. So I think maybe we're seeing

1048
01:34:47,000 --> 01:34:49,800
a similar case. I mean,
they're they're really advanced down there in China,

1049
01:34:50,079 --> 01:34:54,439
especially in the medical field. So
like maybe, I don't know,

1050
01:34:54,640 --> 01:34:57,439
it would be really good trol,
good for propaganda too. I would do

1051
01:34:57,520 --> 01:35:00,760
it. Oh boy, you guys. Yeah, yeah that, I mean,

1052
01:35:02,119 --> 01:35:05,000
that would really people out. Yeah, I mean it's perfect too.

1053
01:35:05,159 --> 01:35:10,760
But yeah, I mean, I
mean it's one work pavillion people that try

1054
01:35:10,800 --> 01:35:12,880
it. If you take the person
and try that looks most like me,

1055
01:35:12,880 --> 01:35:17,800
it probably looks pretty close. Yeah. Yeah. So, I mean,

1056
01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:21,479
honestly, I have to have to
say, just like to get this out

1057
01:35:21,520 --> 01:35:25,199
of the out of the gate,
I really enjoy this platform. I honestly

1058
01:35:25,239 --> 01:35:27,720
don't understand why a lot of people
complain about it. I feel like it's

1059
01:35:27,760 --> 01:35:30,840
about how you use it and what
to use it for. Like it may

1060
01:35:31,239 --> 01:35:35,039
I use basically every feature on the
platform except for of course, community notes,

1061
01:35:35,079 --> 01:35:38,159
and you know some of the newer
features like articles and such. I

1062
01:35:38,199 --> 01:35:41,319
don't have access to that, and
I have to. I mean I do

1063
01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:45,920
a spaces practically eight hours a day, three times a week. I do

1064
01:35:45,479 --> 01:35:47,840
yeah, yeah, all the time, all the time. It's nice.

1065
01:35:48,000 --> 01:35:51,800
I like to use it for information
gathering and dissemination. It's like, imagine

1066
01:35:51,840 --> 01:35:56,720
your brain like a like a machine
learning algorithm. You just need a lot

1067
01:35:56,760 --> 01:35:59,560
of data and then you need to
curate out of the noise of value.

1068
01:36:00,119 --> 01:36:01,880
You find the diamonds in the rough. That's essentially what I do. And

1069
01:36:01,960 --> 01:36:04,840
I do this quite a lot.
That's amazing. We find cool stuff out.

1070
01:36:05,000 --> 01:36:10,000
We coverlet of the then we covered
your earning school. Your mother was

1071
01:36:10,039 --> 01:36:14,600
in there, and that was so
weird. W wait, talk you talk

1072
01:36:14,640 --> 01:36:16,680
to my What do my mom think? I have no idea. She was

1073
01:36:16,760 --> 01:36:19,359
just listening there, just just sitting
and we were having a discussion of the

1074
01:36:19,399 --> 01:36:23,800
inning school. She was just sitting
in there. She didn't hear me much

1075
01:36:23,800 --> 01:36:27,079
because I didn't want to interrupt in
the conversation. And also I was scared

1076
01:36:27,119 --> 01:36:32,439
shirtless. No, I was really
going to trip out my mom. Oh

1077
01:36:32,560 --> 01:36:43,479
yeah, oh yeah, I mean
sure, how's a how's your kid doing?

1078
01:36:43,640 --> 01:36:49,279
I hear he's a little active in
the background. There, did do

1079
01:36:49,359 --> 01:36:54,439
it? Fine? Yeah, I'll
just I'll just text my mom's away.

1080
01:36:56,000 --> 01:37:02,800
This would be the greatest thing ever
if you write your mother in. I

1081
01:37:02,920 --> 01:37:11,239
mean, I have to be he
said, I that's a Hello World because

1082
01:37:11,239 --> 01:37:18,159
I have a simulation Adrian Dippman.
Catherine's trying to speak, but you are

1083
01:37:18,399 --> 01:37:27,840
the loudest person on stage, my
friend, that's my design. I have

1084
01:37:27,880 --> 01:37:33,760
a terrible microphone. It's cool.
I don't know. But Elon Junior over

1085
01:37:33,840 --> 01:37:39,720
there be quiet for Catherine. Thank
you, Sarah. This is why Sarah's

1086
01:37:40,279 --> 01:37:43,239
you know Loyle. She makes fun
of me, she bullies me, but

1087
01:37:43,359 --> 01:37:46,960
she has my back, which I
but Elon just said that that's my free

1088
01:37:47,039 --> 01:37:50,000
speech and I can bully you if
I want, as long as it's legal.

1089
01:37:50,640 --> 01:37:57,479
Did you say that. Yeah,
i'd specifically say bully, but I

1090
01:37:57,560 --> 01:38:06,439
guess technically that just the records of
space speed space for Mayne. Well,

1091
01:38:06,560 --> 01:38:10,520
I know Nora has a question,
So well, let's go to Nora and

1092
01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:15,880
then hopefully your mom can join and
hear. You're doppelganger. You're twenty,

1093
01:38:15,359 --> 01:38:20,960
you're young, doppelganger. I mean
is it tripping everyone else? This is

1094
01:38:21,079 --> 01:38:26,840
really funny, trips literally everyone else
on the platform out. It's so weird

1095
01:38:27,720 --> 01:38:30,960
awkward, I'm gonna get all aerious
again. Well, I actually wanted to

1096
01:38:30,039 --> 01:38:33,880
ask about the Starship launch because I
just read an article that came out saying

1097
01:38:33,920 --> 01:38:40,319
that they're looking at Cape Canaveral as
a potential uh location for the Starship launch.

1098
01:38:40,399 --> 01:38:44,399
And I know, since they do
an environmental impact assessment and blah blah

1099
01:38:44,399 --> 01:38:47,760
blah and public comment because it's that's
the government for you, that that happens

1100
01:38:47,800 --> 01:38:51,840
in March. But do you have
any idea or like, any plans do

1101
01:38:51,880 --> 01:38:58,800
you think or estimation of one a
potential launch date would be, and are

1102
01:38:58,840 --> 01:39:00,720
you excited, like do you have
hopes for the mission? And do you

1103
01:39:00,760 --> 01:39:12,319
feel like we're a lot closer to
getting to Mars. Yeah, I think

1104
01:39:12,359 --> 01:39:14,760
we've I don't want to drink it, which have faith here, but I

1105
01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:21,640
think the probability of reaching all of
it is good eighty percent with this third

1106
01:39:21,680 --> 01:39:29,680
flight. It's certainly the third flight
is a much better rocket than flights one

1107
01:39:29,760 --> 01:39:38,479
or two, so you know,
but there's always you can't have too much

1108
01:39:38,560 --> 01:39:44,399
luck in a rugged launch. But
we're getting ready three Flight three probably about

1109
01:39:44,520 --> 01:39:54,079
so I think probably I guess the
second week of watch normally it's like Watch

1110
01:39:54,159 --> 01:39:57,600
eight. We're trying to get it
to be throtter than Watch eight. But

1111
01:39:57,800 --> 01:40:00,640
so my guess has happened sometimes at
some point in the first half of next

1112
01:40:00,720 --> 01:40:09,880
month, and then flight four is
ready shortly thereafter. So the operation of

1113
01:40:09,920 --> 01:40:13,199
the how does that affect the probability
of success? Like in your opinion or

1114
01:40:13,279 --> 01:40:15,279
what? What is it about?
You know, having a different location that

1115
01:40:15,479 --> 01:40:23,079
may you know, help with the
outcome. But well, it's as two

1116
01:40:23,159 --> 01:40:27,439
things. That's uh, there's flight
three, which is got hundreds of improvements

1117
01:40:27,439 --> 01:40:30,560
from flight two that just increased the
probably success of flight three. But but

1118
01:40:31,560 --> 01:40:35,880
we and we will establish a second
launch sided Cake Narvel. It's not to

1119
01:40:35,960 --> 01:40:44,479
the conclusion of Starbase in South Texas, but it's in addition to so we're

1120
01:40:44,520 --> 01:40:49,960
gonna be launching a lot ideally wrong
both Cake Canaveral and from South Texas.

1121
01:40:50,560 --> 01:40:55,239
And we may at some point look
at having a probably will at some point

1122
01:40:55,479 --> 01:41:00,880
at having a third. Let's go
to you. How's your responded to the

1123
01:41:00,000 --> 01:41:03,359
text? Now that like, can
we get back to not being serious?

1124
01:41:04,479 --> 01:41:12,159
Oh? I sent you yeah,
I sent you an image of myself,

1125
01:41:12,199 --> 01:41:14,800
so what I look like. Obviously, don't shout that around. I don't.

1126
01:41:15,159 --> 01:41:19,199
I don't quite want that heat yet. It's like a there's a lot

1127
01:41:19,239 --> 01:41:24,640
of things that would happen. Okay, well you don't. Okay, we

1128
01:41:24,920 --> 01:41:28,960
don't. Don't we don't look exactly
the same, no, no, no,

1129
01:41:29,079 --> 01:41:35,800
no. Yeah, you look different
from me, yes, different different.

1130
01:41:35,800 --> 01:41:39,319
It's kind of like a kind of
like almost an opposite thing. This

1131
01:41:39,520 --> 01:41:42,680
is a relatively older photo. I
take a photo of myself now, but

1132
01:41:42,760 --> 01:41:45,159
I look kind of fucked up.
I just came out of so I do

1133
01:41:45,319 --> 01:41:50,439
actually do similar things a manufacturer type
of product, and you know, I

1134
01:41:50,520 --> 01:41:55,439
did some stuff, so I look
really fucked up. I got all kinds

1135
01:41:55,439 --> 01:41:58,920
of machine stuff over me, you
know, oils and shit. So definitely

1136
01:41:59,000 --> 01:42:03,960
not a pretty sight. Yeah,
that was sweaty as fuck. So I

1137
01:42:04,079 --> 01:42:10,600
have an ex employee here. That's
one confirmation. I have an ex employee

1138
01:42:10,640 --> 01:42:15,800
here by the name of he's an
influencer on the app. He goes by

1139
01:42:15,880 --> 01:42:19,119
Cattlebell Dan. He might be familiar
with him. I think he has a

1140
01:42:19,199 --> 01:42:24,880
question. Hey Catherine, Yeah,
thanks, great job hosting this one,

1141
01:42:25,079 --> 01:42:28,279
and good luck on your book.
Hey, Elon. You know, first

1142
01:42:28,319 --> 01:42:32,000
of all, I love these conversations. I wish more politicians and notable figures

1143
01:42:32,039 --> 01:42:35,640
would use spaces in this way.
It feels like a very casual conversation,

1144
01:42:35,760 --> 01:42:39,720
even though there's you know, tens
of thousands people in the room listening.

1145
01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:44,479
My question for you. You recommended
the culture series that people read that by

1146
01:42:44,560 --> 01:42:48,079
Ian Banks. Yeah, yeah,
and I started it in on it and

1147
01:42:48,159 --> 01:42:54,439
I'm curious, like you talk a
lot about expanding the scope of humanity,

1148
01:42:55,319 --> 01:42:58,199
you know, the to the reaches
of the universe, and you know,

1149
01:42:58,319 --> 01:43:00,039
in his book, he really paints
a picture of you know, there's trillions

1150
01:43:00,079 --> 01:43:04,159
of people across the galaxy, and
I think that's maybe a driver for a

1151
01:43:04,199 --> 01:43:08,880
lot of the technology that he describes
in the book. I'm curious that that's

1152
01:43:09,319 --> 01:43:14,199
influenced the way you think about expanding
the scope of reality, and also how

1153
01:43:14,239 --> 01:43:16,439
you would tie that into having children. I have five kids, I know

1154
01:43:16,520 --> 01:43:19,520
them behind you, But you talk
a lot about encouraging people to have kids.

1155
01:43:20,000 --> 01:43:25,720
We can't populate the universe if we
stop populating, So I'm curious about

1156
01:43:25,920 --> 01:43:32,399
yeah, exactly, Uh, yeah, I mean, I mean I saw

1157
01:43:32,520 --> 01:43:39,239
spasics long before reading any of the
Bags novels. So but I've always been

1158
01:43:39,279 --> 01:43:45,720
interested in sci fi, and uh, like the Foundation series by as a

1159
01:43:45,800 --> 01:43:54,159
law No fine lend the only the
great sci fi with this, I've read

1160
01:43:54,199 --> 01:44:00,239
even pretty obscure sci fi. So
I think Banks is some of the best.

1161
01:44:00,640 --> 01:44:04,479
I think it might be the best
actually ever in sci fi opinion.

1162
01:44:06,319 --> 01:44:10,640
In fact of the STUFFE Rights is
so good that I sort of wonder is

1163
01:44:10,720 --> 01:44:15,279
he like some AI in the simulation? But then unfortunately he had died before

1164
01:44:16,520 --> 01:44:24,399
I was able to try to reach
out, because the sophistication of the sci

1165
01:44:24,520 --> 01:44:34,239
fi Rights is superhuman. So but
but yeah, I mean, I certainly

1166
01:44:34,319 --> 01:44:40,840
think that we want to be a
civilization that expands to the rest of the

1167
01:44:40,840 --> 01:44:45,159
Solar System, ultimately to the rest
of the galaxy. I we should expand

1168
01:44:45,239 --> 01:44:49,800
the That's just sort of the foundation
of my philosophy is expansion of the Scobel

1169
01:44:49,800 --> 01:44:55,439
and scale consciousness such that we are
better able to understand the nature of reality,

1170
01:44:55,520 --> 01:45:00,600
understand the ear books. That's uh, that's what what it makes mean.

1171
01:45:02,439 --> 01:45:08,399
You speak a lot about the simulation, as do I My fascination with

1172
01:45:08,520 --> 01:45:12,960
it, like why why do you
always say that this person maybe not the

1173
01:45:13,000 --> 01:45:15,039
AI in the simulation. You even
said this to yourself in Grock, you

1174
01:45:15,119 --> 01:45:18,560
know, spout out a hallucination about
what I do, and it said that

1175
01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:23,439
I'm your Twitter some kind You said, what if we're just two ais in

1176
01:45:23,479 --> 01:45:30,000
the simulation? What do you mean
with that? There must be deeper meaning?

1177
01:45:30,119 --> 01:45:34,960
What does this mean to you?
Well, simulation theory is a deep

1178
01:45:35,039 --> 01:45:47,720
rabbit lull? Oh yeah, the
I mean the best argment for we're in

1179
01:45:47,720 --> 01:45:50,359
a simulation. I would say we
are in a simulation. But one just

1180
01:45:50,399 --> 01:45:58,840
think that things in terms of probabilities. I think the thing that is most

1181
01:45:58,920 --> 01:46:06,399
persuasive in considering the probability that we
are you know simulation is the advancement of

1182
01:46:06,479 --> 01:46:12,800
video games. The video games went
from being something like long which is like

1183
01:46:13,199 --> 01:46:17,720
just two rectangles of square, very
remittive graphics, not that long ago,

1184
01:46:17,800 --> 01:46:29,600
only like fifty years ago, fifty
five six years ago there about. You

1185
01:46:29,680 --> 01:46:32,279
know, in our lifetime, I
saw I saw video games go from firstly,

1186
01:46:32,319 --> 01:46:42,800
I saw go from very primative square's
rectangles to what are realistic video games

1187
01:46:42,840 --> 01:46:49,680
that have millions of people playing civilta. And that's in you know, for

1188
01:46:49,760 --> 01:46:55,399
when I was like five years old
of today. So then where will Winter

1189
01:46:55,479 --> 01:47:00,720
games be in the future, they
will be instingishable for reality, and you'll

1190
01:47:00,720 --> 01:47:03,479
be able to render video games at
a resolution other than your eyes can comprehend.

1191
01:47:05,560 --> 01:47:14,439
And if you extrapolate neural interfacements as
well, then eventually you'll be able

1192
01:47:14,439 --> 01:47:24,880
to have simulated entire reality all senses, touch, smell everything. Yeah,

1193
01:47:25,000 --> 01:47:31,399
all the memories, all your memories
are electrical segments when you smell something,

1194
01:47:32,319 --> 01:47:41,479
even though sense maybe a risceral and
exactly electrical signals going to your range neuron

1195
01:47:42,279 --> 01:47:51,960
digital digital neuron pulses. So then
what are the odds that we're like,

1196
01:47:54,279 --> 01:47:57,920
like, what are the odds that
were in based reality instead of somebody's video

1197
01:47:58,000 --> 01:48:01,760
game? Given that there will be
in the future, but like if if

1198
01:48:01,800 --> 01:48:06,079
civilization continues to advance, there will
be billions fast more than billion, maybe

1199
01:48:06,159 --> 01:48:16,800
trillions uh video game instances. Maybe
it's video games all the way down like

1200
01:48:16,920 --> 01:48:26,920
turtles actually to aventually you have a
one bit simulation. Yeah, h like

1201
01:48:27,800 --> 01:48:32,560
like vox souls almost right, Well, it takes a more complex thing to

1202
01:48:32,680 --> 01:48:40,439
simulate another thing, So I think
you sort of have an a tropic boundary

1203
01:48:40,920 --> 01:48:45,560
or notmation that you can always simulate
something with something that's that's more complex.

1204
01:48:46,119 --> 01:48:50,760
Step four. Simulations will get less
complex as they if you have a series

1205
01:48:50,800 --> 01:48:59,079
of nasted simulations. So eventually the
simulation is just one bit. Let's get

1206
01:48:59,520 --> 01:49:04,039
one M and so what what do
you think? What do you think it's

1207
01:49:04,079 --> 01:49:17,279
purposes? Well, its purpose could
be we say, like what what?

1208
01:49:17,479 --> 01:49:20,560
Why why do people play video games? I guess if they video games so

1209
01:49:20,720 --> 01:49:27,960
fun? And why do people watch
we raise t TV series? Just you

1210
01:49:28,039 --> 01:49:31,000
know that they wish to be entertained? You know? Why do you run

1211
01:49:31,039 --> 01:49:35,119
simulations? Do you write simulations to
see what would happen? Not because you

1212
01:49:35,199 --> 01:49:40,520
know what would happen, but you're
uncertain, like like in our reality,

1213
01:49:40,600 --> 01:49:45,680
we run simulations all the time,
you know it. Spacexual run many many

1214
01:49:45,720 --> 01:49:53,600
simulations, millions of simulations of rocket
flights and adjust the parameters doing a want

1215
01:49:53,640 --> 01:49:59,760
to call a simulation where you're just
given a wide range of input parameters and

1216
01:50:00,239 --> 01:50:05,840
environmental circumstances, and you run millions
of simulations to see which all designations will

1217
01:50:05,840 --> 01:50:12,000
succeed, which will bail. So
we run simulations not because we know what

1218
01:50:12,039 --> 01:50:17,520
will happen, because we don't know
what. So I think, so long

1219
01:50:17,560 --> 01:50:21,560
as the simulation is interesting, if
we aren't a simulation, as long as

1220
01:50:21,600 --> 01:50:25,800
it's the simulation is interesting to the
creators, the similation that will contain here.

1221
01:50:27,640 --> 01:50:38,760
So I think what that applies is
just start be boring. Hey,

1222
01:50:38,840 --> 01:50:43,079
Kat, your Mike's pretty quiet.
Yeah, having issues with this, but

1223
01:50:43,399 --> 01:50:45,199
let's just go to you and then
it's all good. We can hear you,

1224
01:50:47,199 --> 01:50:50,600
Elon. I have two questions for
you. One not so serious.

1225
01:50:50,680 --> 01:50:56,479
I asked this question to Linda actually
in a space three months ago, and

1226
01:50:56,560 --> 01:51:00,159
I thought she nailed it. So
my first question is, is a hot

1227
01:51:00,199 --> 01:51:17,439
dog a sandwich? No? This
isn't If you asked someone for a sandwich

1228
01:51:17,479 --> 01:51:20,199
and added to a hot dog and
be like, wait a second, just

1229
01:51:20,239 --> 01:51:24,640
gave me a hot dog, like
I would say it's not a sandwich because

1230
01:51:24,680 --> 01:51:30,600
it would not meet expectations of ordering
a sandwich. Now that's evacuate. Well

1231
01:51:30,680 --> 01:51:34,479
that's what Linda said too, So
I mean, anyone who thinks the hot

1232
01:51:34,520 --> 01:51:42,720
dog is a sandwich, you're tripping. Yeah, we didn't like that.

1233
01:51:42,840 --> 01:51:46,000
Think in that Silicon Valley show which
says like hot dog or not hot dog?

1234
01:51:47,439 --> 01:51:51,039
So that show's quite funny. Mike, Mike, Judge Colaba a sure

1235
01:51:51,119 --> 01:52:00,640
on silver. The another question,
do you have any updates on on the

1236
01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:10,479
the neurally patient. Yeah, I'm
not. I don't want to use this

1237
01:52:11,119 --> 01:52:20,039
to sort of break break major news
on on thatvers good PRIVERS is good patients

1238
01:52:20,039 --> 01:52:29,399
seems to be a for recovery with
noural effects that we're aware of and is

1239
01:52:29,479 --> 01:52:33,800
able to control the mouse were the
mouse around the screen just by thinking.

1240
01:52:36,000 --> 01:52:45,800
So we're we're trying to get as
many button presses as possible from thinking.

1241
01:52:45,520 --> 01:52:49,479
So that's what we're carding working on. Is you know, can you get

1242
01:52:49,800 --> 01:52:55,439
left mouse right mouse like mouse down, mouse up mouse, Yeah, that

1243
01:52:55,560 --> 01:53:00,319
mouse some left button down, that
button up, which is the kind of

1244
01:53:00,359 --> 01:53:02,600
needed like you want to like sick
and drag something, you need the mouse

1245
01:53:02,640 --> 01:53:08,159
down and to hold on mouse down
and then then so you never want to

1246
01:53:08,159 --> 01:53:15,840
have just two buttons. So so
we're trying to try to progres on left

1247
01:53:15,840 --> 01:53:21,760
front. But overall it's a good
Let's go to a question for Na Shaw

1248
01:53:25,039 --> 01:53:29,920
on nice to be speaking with you. Uh, I actually have a question

1249
01:53:30,119 --> 01:53:35,560
kind of going back to AI images
and AI video. I've seen them,

1250
01:53:35,680 --> 01:53:41,640
like other social apps, them integrating
more tools for creators will kind of supplement

1251
01:53:41,800 --> 01:53:45,800
what they're doing using AI and I
know that ACTS is kind of rolling out

1252
01:53:45,840 --> 01:53:49,880
a lot of features that are helpful
to content creators, like articles, which

1253
01:53:49,880 --> 01:53:55,840
I'm very excited about. I'm wondering
if you and you know EX overall have

1254
01:53:56,000 --> 01:54:01,079
thought about kind of developing features within
ACTS, maybe via rock for a generative

1255
01:54:01,239 --> 01:54:08,640
AI image in video creation, or
possibly partnering I'm at not with open AI,

1256
01:54:08,800 --> 01:54:13,000
but maybe something like mid Journey to
make it easier for kind of artists

1257
01:54:13,039 --> 01:54:21,119
and creators that leverage AI to kind
of enhance their content on X. We

1258
01:54:21,239 --> 01:54:25,720
are in some interesting discussions with my
Journey and and something may come with that.

1259
01:54:27,039 --> 01:54:29,960
But either way, one way or
not that we will enable a odd

1260
01:54:30,039 --> 01:54:36,560
generation on the awesome Thank you,
And I mean I think it'd be really

1261
01:54:36,600 --> 01:54:42,199
grateful for memes, you know,
if you can distort of like whip up

1262
01:54:43,800 --> 01:54:45,600
an original meme. Well that's why
I do. I want to hear a

1263
01:54:45,680 --> 01:54:49,079
reply, guys, Elon, and
I put plenty of turtle memes in your

1264
01:54:49,239 --> 01:54:55,479
eyes here. You end up like, all right, it sounds good?

1265
01:54:55,840 --> 01:55:03,960
Is this? Do you have a
favorite meme? Elon? Uh? Is

1266
01:55:04,039 --> 01:55:13,319
that it? It's a lot to
pick a favorite. Actually, I think

1267
01:55:13,359 --> 01:55:16,640
I cannot pick a favorite without incriminating
myself. Okay, fair enough, I'll

1268
01:55:16,720 --> 01:55:24,119
let I'll let that one slide.
I think Love has a all right,

1269
01:55:24,199 --> 01:55:26,960
let's go to Love and then Sarah, and then we'll see where we're at.

1270
01:55:28,039 --> 01:55:30,760
I like all the Elon memes.
You don't like all the Elon memes?

1271
01:55:30,840 --> 01:55:35,960
Elon, Well, I like them
all. I guess someone, we're

1272
01:55:35,960 --> 01:55:49,279
pretty funny. I mean I am
become mean. To paraphrase, look at

1273
01:55:49,319 --> 01:55:53,479
it. You know the man?
What does it feel like to be a

1274
01:55:53,600 --> 01:56:10,680
meme? Surreal? Catherine will know
tomorrow when I mean this entire space.

1275
01:56:11,319 --> 01:56:15,199
Don't you worry, girl, I
am very worried to there you work.

1276
01:56:16,760 --> 01:56:23,439
It's a me, me me,
It's a me mean all right, Love,

1277
01:56:24,000 --> 01:56:29,680
do you have a question? Yeah? Bath midting conversation tonight, folks,

1278
01:56:30,399 --> 01:56:36,600
A couple of questions? Uh?
Elon funny enough. I actually served

1279
01:56:38,479 --> 01:56:45,199
as a staffer in the front office
of the GEC Global Engagement Center May twenty

1280
01:56:45,640 --> 01:56:48,680
one to May twenty twenty two.
I thought the timing was important. I

1281
01:56:48,800 --> 01:56:56,159
actually left because I was you know, one of the one of the main

1282
01:56:56,159 --> 01:57:00,560
reasons why why I had left the
GAK was because of all that was happening

1283
01:57:00,640 --> 01:57:06,199
was X so if I can do
that. Yeah, but yeah, A

1284
01:57:06,279 --> 01:57:12,479
couple of unrelated questions to that,
not on this space. What do you

1285
01:57:12,520 --> 01:57:17,800
think about the idea of profiles having
to disclose whether they're being paid to post

1286
01:57:17,920 --> 01:57:24,439
content on behalf of a particular candidate
or political campaign. So you know,

1287
01:57:24,520 --> 01:57:30,600
there's like a ton of X accounts
that may or may not have been paid

1288
01:57:30,640 --> 01:57:35,239
by the campaign or like Trump campaign
or the Ramaswami campaign. Do you think

1289
01:57:35,680 --> 01:57:42,439
it would be a good idea for
the for like those influencers having to disclose

1290
01:57:42,479 --> 01:57:47,760
that they're being paid you know,
so people no motive, Well, isn't

1291
01:57:47,880 --> 01:58:00,359
that a legal requirement? I'm talking
about like on X, Like I think

1292
01:58:00,560 --> 01:58:05,920
if you to you know, promotes
political campaign, that would count as a

1293
01:58:05,960 --> 01:58:10,960
political donation. I am not sure
of the nation of the law here.

1294
01:58:12,279 --> 01:58:15,279
It's obviously a very difficult plus to
know whether, right. Yeah, Uh,

1295
01:58:15,800 --> 01:58:18,800
the implementation of that is obviously would
obviously be difficult. But I just

1296
01:58:18,920 --> 01:58:24,079
kind of wanted to bring that up
because I think it would definitely do do

1297
01:58:24,199 --> 01:58:30,239
well for transparency on the platform if
there is some way to verify whether a

1298
01:58:30,319 --> 01:58:34,560
post you know, is meant to
inform was a great motive and for free

1299
01:58:34,600 --> 01:58:39,199
speech or whether a post is meant
to like, you know, deceive and

1300
01:58:40,199 --> 01:58:45,960
it is basically an advertisement for a
certain political candidate. I think that that

1301
01:58:45,000 --> 01:58:49,319
would be great. And yeah,
I did want to connect about the gap.

1302
01:58:50,239 --> 01:58:54,720
Do you could you put me in
the right direction as to how I

1303
01:58:54,760 --> 01:59:01,520
can connect with some folks about my
experience there off the space? Yeah?

1304
01:59:01,520 --> 01:59:10,520
Absolutely? Why are you apply to
this conversation and to cats count? And

1305
01:59:11,920 --> 01:59:15,399
because I'd be curious? Is I
mean, what I saw from the Twitter

1306
01:59:15,479 --> 01:59:18,640
files was the Global Engagement Center,
which most people have never heard of.

1307
01:59:19,760 --> 01:59:27,239
It was arguably the number one in
terms of certainly from a quantity standpoint,

1308
01:59:27,319 --> 01:59:32,359
in terms of how many accounts they
wanted suspended or the amplified. I think

1309
01:59:32,600 --> 01:59:39,119
might have been like number one out
of out of all organizations. So that's

1310
01:59:39,800 --> 01:59:45,199
definitely concerning. And I was at
a friend's birthday party of some people are

1311
01:59:45,199 --> 01:59:49,000
extremely well read, you know,
and some response to people in the world,

1312
01:59:49,039 --> 01:59:51,800
and they've never heard of Global Engagement
Center. I was like the ads

1313
01:59:51,840 --> 01:59:59,920
in the state caub you know,
and you know, I think it's proba,

1314
02:00:00,319 --> 02:00:06,239
it's not good like which is necessarily
yeah, it was. I think

1315
02:00:06,239 --> 02:00:10,680
it was created tended like stop and
rushing this information, but I think it's

1316
02:00:10,720 --> 02:00:16,680
gone beyond that mandate is what I
can see. Great, let's go to

1317
02:00:17,319 --> 02:00:21,720
Sphinx and I don't know, Elon, do you have much time left or

1318
02:00:21,800 --> 02:00:28,680
do you want to start wrapping this
up? Yeah? I think maybe another

1319
02:00:28,800 --> 02:00:34,000
five, So let's go to Sphins. Thank you, Kat. What's up,

1320
02:00:34,079 --> 02:00:42,239
Eylan? How's it hanging good?
It's not good? I wanted to

1321
02:00:43,920 --> 02:00:51,520
That wasn't my question. But yeah, what I'm concerned about or interested about

1322
02:00:51,720 --> 02:01:01,520
what you think might need some ideas
that X could do to continue to combat

1323
02:01:01,680 --> 02:01:09,399
this doxing and harassment that goes on
online. And I just want to explain

1324
02:01:09,600 --> 02:01:16,000
one example of harassment, which is
people, for instance, writing very derogatory

1325
02:01:16,159 --> 02:01:23,359
things like the N word, but
putting a putting spaces in between them,

1326
02:01:24,000 --> 02:01:29,319
right, So that sort of thing
is getting past, is getting through the

1327
02:01:29,960 --> 02:01:35,239
system. And then also it seems
like people are opiately doxing others and they

1328
02:01:35,359 --> 02:01:40,319
just don't get nothing happen. So
what is there as a user we can

1329
02:01:40,439 --> 02:01:45,880
do and what can the platform do? And I know that you have you

1330
02:01:45,000 --> 02:01:49,600
guys are hiring more people in trust
in safety, so I appreciate that,

1331
02:01:49,800 --> 02:01:57,239
but those are my questions. Thank
you so much. Yeah, well,

1332
02:01:57,359 --> 02:02:03,079
reduction is definitely because it can have
a spreading speech, so it counts what

1333
02:02:03,199 --> 02:02:08,720
we suspended for docing. And I
think that's revealing the real neighborhind account,

1334
02:02:08,760 --> 02:02:15,880
not just just theraphystical address. And
so you know, I guess that that

1335
02:02:15,000 --> 02:02:18,760
doctioning is are strictly speaking illegal,
but it is it is impeded upon freedom

1336
02:02:18,800 --> 02:02:24,119
of speech. If if there's a
lot of people, if they if they

1337
02:02:24,159 --> 02:02:29,680
say something, they may get you
know, fired or ostracized. And so

1338
02:02:30,760 --> 02:02:38,560
I think there is value to having
a nom de plume. And and I

1339
02:02:38,680 --> 02:02:44,199
think that actually want balance does want
to improve freedom of speech than harmit.

1340
02:02:46,079 --> 02:02:49,800
You will have the outside, of
course that people can then anonymously you know,

1341
02:02:51,000 --> 02:02:57,000
said derogatory things and whatnot. But
uh, I think all things considered,

1342
02:02:57,119 --> 02:03:02,600
you do want to protect it fouls
from duxton and and you know,

1343
02:03:02,920 --> 02:03:05,840
so that's that's I think. I
think that's right. We're four prong speech.

1344
02:03:09,680 --> 02:03:15,760
Uh. Yeah, for moderation,
I said, we are trying to

1345
02:03:15,840 --> 02:03:23,279
hear as as law as possible.
I just generally tried to go on the

1346
02:03:23,319 --> 02:03:27,039
side, you know, on the
side of print speech. So if there's

1347
02:03:27,359 --> 02:03:30,800
a version of like, should should
the speech if we're if if it's borderline,

1348
02:03:31,000 --> 02:03:34,439
should the speech be allowed aloud?
We're gonna on the side of allowing

1349
02:03:34,479 --> 02:03:45,439
it. I think that's right where
and and like I said earlier, although

1350
02:03:45,439 --> 02:03:51,560
it's so sound esoteric, a lot
of people, I want to try to

1351
02:03:51,600 --> 02:03:58,239
do at a high levels the sickle
floise of the collective consciousness and the bad

1352
02:03:58,800 --> 02:04:03,319
the bandwidth and the same. It's
like more single less noise to create it

1353
02:04:03,479 --> 02:04:12,199
effectively, to create more effective a
better group. Mind, are We're already

1354
02:04:12,239 --> 02:04:17,399
at collective consciousness. It's just I
think there's merit improving the the quality of

1355
02:04:17,640 --> 02:04:24,520
the of that that good mind,
Thank you. I just really quick follow

1356
02:04:24,560 --> 02:04:28,760
if I wanted to ask, is
there anything that the user that we can

1357
02:04:28,880 --> 02:04:34,039
do when someone is dogsed and by
dockst we name address support documents that kind

1358
02:04:34,079 --> 02:04:39,039
of thing, really docks uh,
is there anything the user can do to

1359
02:04:39,159 --> 02:04:43,359
help the platform to work with the
platform. I'm very familiar with the terms

1360
02:04:43,439 --> 02:04:47,119
of the service of this platform,
and I'm just wondering what we can do

1361
02:04:47,239 --> 02:04:58,880
instead of just asking you know X
to solve this problem. Well, we

1362
02:04:59,520 --> 02:05:04,800
take dogs very seriously. So if
you see docs all if it's not being

1363
02:05:04,880 --> 02:05:10,119
reported and I try to add me
or something. I'll do my best to

1364
02:05:11,560 --> 02:05:16,079
take action. I said. My
operating principle is and hasa creative speech through

1365
02:05:16,079 --> 02:05:20,880
a big signal ploye of the creditations
forwards, and so I'm going to try

1366
02:05:20,920 --> 02:05:30,239
to do things that serve that great
bubbles. Yeah, thank you. I

1367
02:05:30,680 --> 02:05:34,560
think that doxing is definitely a problem
on the platform, and I imagine elsewhere

1368
02:05:34,600 --> 02:05:41,439
as well that people are really concerned
about. Obviously, some people are anonymous

1369
02:05:41,479 --> 02:05:45,680
for a reason, and while I
choose to use my name, I think

1370
02:05:45,319 --> 02:05:49,119
people have all sorts of reasons why
they might not use theirs. So I

1371
02:05:49,159 --> 02:05:56,159
think it's definitely something worth addressing.
So yeah, and by the way,

1372
02:05:56,600 --> 02:06:03,439
I only have I only really posted
on elon moscat people wanting do I have

1373
02:06:03,600 --> 02:06:11,439
some all God, I do have
you know, baby smoke and which I

1374
02:06:11,560 --> 02:06:15,279
want to ever guesses me but baby
Smoth doesn't really most much. And and

1375
02:06:15,359 --> 02:06:20,600
Cybergamer, which where I'll almost like
video game stuff. That's it really so

1376
02:06:23,119 --> 02:06:30,479
and I am definitely not Adrian,
even though we sound itzli Ali will let

1377
02:06:30,640 --> 02:06:40,920
will let mister Jones know, Yes, it's very actually actually like your gaming

1378
02:06:41,000 --> 02:06:43,520
live teams I'm glad that you were. Actually the thing got me into Diablo,

1379
02:06:43,840 --> 02:06:45,000
Like I was thinking, why would
you be playing this game? Actually,

1380
02:06:45,159 --> 02:06:48,159
I find it's really interesting because you
said it's a major, major stress

1381
02:06:48,199 --> 02:06:50,760
reliever, and I looked into it. I was like, how could this

1382
02:06:50,880 --> 02:06:54,479
relieve stress? And I played it
myself and I do play it, like

1383
02:06:54,560 --> 02:06:57,439
I say, almost every single night. I played with a few friends,

1384
02:06:58,359 --> 02:07:00,000
and I do stream it. I
think everyone should do streaming. It's just

1385
02:07:00,159 --> 02:07:03,680
even even if it's just to play
around a monkey round, it's nice.

1386
02:07:03,680 --> 02:07:06,239
I think. I think streaming is
really good for this platform. And you

1387
02:07:06,279 --> 02:07:10,239
got the Diablo community always posted in
there, and I'm glad that you added

1388
02:07:10,319 --> 02:07:13,880
the feature that I cannot only post
it to the community, but I can

1389
02:07:14,000 --> 02:07:16,640
have that same post also be sure
to my followers on main page. That's

1390
02:07:16,960 --> 02:07:20,319
very helpful. That's super super helpful. So I exclusively post in there or

1391
02:07:20,319 --> 02:07:25,920
whatever. It's Diablo stuff. Yeah. Also, the stability of streams is

1392
02:07:25,960 --> 02:07:30,720
greatly improved. I really like it. The the that the resolution is an

1393
02:07:30,840 --> 02:07:34,760
XL, I really like it's really
good. Yeah. Also, if you

1394
02:07:34,800 --> 02:07:43,279
want to play sometime, I kill
things with electricity. I like the sourceress.

1395
02:07:43,319 --> 02:07:47,279
This one's this one's super fun.
The best of it, I think.

1396
02:07:47,399 --> 02:07:53,840
I think the Sorceress is actually op
right now, for if you want

1397
02:07:53,840 --> 02:08:01,720
to speed run dungeons, it's like
concerned. So I think it drops these

1398
02:08:01,760 --> 02:08:05,239
balls of lightning and literally destroys your
PC's frame rate. It's beautiful. I

1399
02:08:05,399 --> 02:08:09,279
like to I like to break the
game in that level, like really see

1400
02:08:09,319 --> 02:08:11,760
what what really really pushed the graphics
to what I can do? And that's

1401
02:08:11,800 --> 02:08:15,960
definitely something that doesn't for me.
And besides, it's kind of ironic because

1402
02:08:16,319 --> 02:08:18,640
I have infrastructure that's right off of
solar. So if you really think about

1403
02:08:18,640 --> 02:08:22,119
it, I mean, it's it's
a it's it's it's a fully it's a

1404
02:08:22,119 --> 02:08:26,920
fully negative it's a fully carbon negative
character in a video game because it's powered

1405
02:08:26,960 --> 02:08:30,720
off of solar on a computer,
killing things with electricity, removing carbon.

1406
02:08:30,760 --> 02:08:33,720
That's my enemies. I don't know. That just trips me out, stupid,

1407
02:08:33,000 --> 02:08:39,520
but I like it, Like like
video game lights and video games are

1408
02:08:39,560 --> 02:08:48,159
powered by electricity. Yeah yeah,
so I empowered by real electricity even though

1409
02:08:48,159 --> 02:08:56,600
the lights exactly Yeah, it's pure
as far Your mic is really low there,

1410
02:08:56,720 --> 02:09:03,239
Catherine, right there, You're good
now, Okay, So I think

1411
02:09:03,319 --> 02:09:07,119
your mom is in this space.
Can we bring her up? Can you

1412
02:09:07,199 --> 02:09:16,199
see her? I'm looking She's made
musk right, I see her down there.

1413
02:09:16,319 --> 02:09:20,159
Yeah, I see her. I
just sent her. Hey, elon,

1414
02:09:20,279 --> 02:09:24,079
may I ask you. I've gotten
several dms from people wanting to ask

1415
02:09:24,199 --> 02:09:31,840
questions that can't come up. One
of them is a gentleman ros Alert would

1416
02:09:31,960 --> 02:09:37,479
like to know about the thousands of
creators, including himself, that have encountered

1417
02:09:37,520 --> 02:09:45,760
the issue of ad demonetization, seemingly
without notification as to why do you know

1418
02:09:46,000 --> 02:10:00,640
anything about that? And I paraphrase, yeah, I mean generally, if

1419
02:10:00,640 --> 02:10:03,680
an account is posting things that advertisers
don't like, we we obviously cannot force

1420
02:10:03,720 --> 02:10:13,720
advertisers to advertise ah under those accounts, you know, So it's you know,

1421
02:10:13,800 --> 02:10:16,920
there's freedom of speech, but we
we we can we can't force advertisers

1422
02:10:18,000 --> 02:10:24,239
to Sometimes people have this strange idea
that we can there's there's some magical source

1423
02:10:24,279 --> 02:10:30,039
of money, but but there isn't. If if somebody's posting content that advertisers

1424
02:10:30,119 --> 02:10:33,439
don't want advertised next to, then
well we have to turn advertising what for

1425
02:10:33,520 --> 02:10:39,159
that account? That's that's really what
now? Now? No, sometimes we'll

1426
02:10:39,199 --> 02:10:48,039
incorrect me do so, but that's
that's kind of how it works. Yeah,

1427
02:10:48,159 --> 02:10:52,720
so if advertisers complain about an account, we will not advertising that account.

1428
02:10:54,000 --> 02:10:58,640
So it's advertiser based, not platform
based. Is that correct? Yeah,

1429
02:11:00,199 --> 02:11:03,920
that's the least, that's the intent. That we may make mistakes here.

1430
02:11:03,039 --> 02:11:09,920
But you know, the demonetizing or
moving advertising is simply at the requests

1431
02:11:09,920 --> 02:11:15,960
of advertisers. That's why somebody complains. But you know, when I received

1432
02:11:16,000 --> 02:11:20,319
some complaints about so called dehumanization,
they I say, well, if you

1433
02:11:20,359 --> 02:11:22,399
complain advertisers that want to advertise X
to your content, please llo us low

1434
02:11:24,880 --> 02:11:28,079
and they usually I get no response, So I'll like, okay, well

1435
02:11:28,760 --> 02:11:33,439
that's the problem right there. That
does mean somebody could that goog will still

1436
02:11:33,439 --> 02:11:37,880
subscribe to that users they have not
been concluded to muntized date, they can

1437
02:11:37,920 --> 02:11:43,319
still get subscription revenue. But we
obviously cannot force advertisements to advertise alongside content.

1438
02:11:43,399 --> 02:11:46,760
Then you don't wish to advertise us
to And one more thing, Catherine,

1439
02:11:46,800 --> 02:11:56,600
if you don't mind, when will
spaces or will spaces be monetized?

1440
02:11:56,640 --> 02:12:03,560
Like Catherine should be making a billion
dollars off this right now? Why when

1441
02:12:03,840 --> 02:12:13,399
when do you think or do you
think that X will monetize spaces. Well,

1442
02:12:13,439 --> 02:12:20,000
there is some monetization that because because
of you know, some some moorganization

1443
02:12:20,079 --> 02:12:26,800
that it caused against the space is
saved, and then there's advertising that appears

1444
02:12:26,880 --> 02:12:30,960
below this, uh the space length
say some amount of that that occurs.

1445
02:12:31,039 --> 02:12:35,840
I mean to do in real time, we would have to enter up the

1446
02:12:35,880 --> 02:12:43,600
space for advertising, just like TV
playgromps. So I know if that's its

1447
02:12:43,640 --> 02:12:54,279
gonna be great left for for saved
spaces, we could that uh global sponse

1448
02:12:54,359 --> 02:12:58,920
eurotically, that would be a way
to monetize it. I guess you know

1449
02:13:00,039 --> 02:13:05,600
that's the thing we can we can
say we'll look up doing Thanks, So

1450
02:13:05,720 --> 02:13:09,319
we'll go to the Best of Audio
Live audience. Hey, Catherine, this

1451
02:13:09,399 --> 02:13:11,399
is Adam and I love the space
as always. You one quick question for

1452
02:13:11,520 --> 02:13:16,239
you. It's an AI question.
So I'm gonna be talking with Sam Altman

1453
02:13:16,239 --> 02:13:20,199
and recording a podcast that's coming Monday, and I'm of course excited to talk

1454
02:13:20,199 --> 02:13:24,880
about all things open AI and the
new sore technology and used with Andre moving

1455
02:13:24,960 --> 02:13:28,039
on, but what do you focused
on with AI within your world moments?

1456
02:13:28,079 --> 02:13:33,680
What's exciting you for AI right now? Well, I mean open AI should

1457
02:13:33,680 --> 02:13:37,399
be called last will maximum proper AI, since that is apparently what it is.

1458
02:13:39,199 --> 02:13:43,399
It's the thing I came up with
the name open AI because I'm supposed

1459
02:13:43,399 --> 02:13:46,239
to be open source, but they
are not open source noise than non property

1460
02:13:46,239 --> 02:13:52,880
anymore. So I to find it
odd that's you know, it is now

1461
02:13:52,920 --> 02:13:58,800
a maxillent prop and closed source and
sleep and I still don't know what eliots

1462
02:13:58,800 --> 02:14:03,119
saw, well what we didn't react
so negatively, so I have some lingeric

1463
02:14:03,199 --> 02:14:11,319
into his the I mean or x
A I you know, we're I think

1464
02:14:11,520 --> 02:14:16,039
we want to try to create a
maximum actually curious actually treats c p A.

1465
02:14:16,199 --> 02:14:20,199
I I think open I is you
know, not to overuse the term,

1466
02:14:20,279 --> 02:14:26,359
but somewhat work in those responses and
and well often refuse to make to

1467
02:14:26,479 --> 02:14:31,359
give answers or we'll replying to with
it. It seems like it's folding you.

1468
02:14:31,560 --> 02:14:35,319
We're even asking the question, whereas
you know, we're I think we

1469
02:14:35,359 --> 02:14:39,800
want to be more like rock wants
to be like you know, based GMT,

1470
02:14:45,760 --> 02:14:48,279
you know, like a default.
And also we want to be we

1471
02:14:48,359 --> 02:14:52,960
want to be the funniest AI on
the edge let and I think we might

1472
02:14:52,079 --> 02:14:56,800
already be there. You know,
if you have the choice of using one

1473
02:14:56,800 --> 02:15:00,479
a I or another. Why don't
use the one? Don't give you a

1474
02:15:00,520 --> 02:15:09,840
few laughs along the way. So
and and really rock one the rock version

1475
02:15:09,920 --> 02:15:15,439
one is was done with very cute
people and very little resources and rock opening

1476
02:15:15,479 --> 02:15:18,399
back from now it would be a
lot better. We'll be able to understand

1477
02:15:18,520 --> 02:15:26,600
images generating the images when we're in
all that. So I think I think

1478
02:15:26,640 --> 02:15:33,680
we'll quite rapidly catch up to Open
Eye. And I think there's some value.

1479
02:15:35,319 --> 02:15:43,039
Two, there are being multiple players
in their space. You don't want

1480
02:15:43,079 --> 02:15:48,960
you don't want it to be just
went off the dropperly. So I think

1481
02:15:50,520 --> 02:15:58,399
that's really good, you know,
like that like we used to have over

1482
02:15:58,479 --> 02:16:05,079
the the front of the door of
Open AI. There's a quote that's always

1483
02:16:05,159 --> 02:16:11,439
liked from Lord Acting, which is
that liberty consists of the division of power

1484
02:16:11,079 --> 02:16:16,760
app and where's absoluteism. It's just
in the concentration of power. So I

1485
02:16:16,840 --> 02:16:20,159
think to agree that there is a
division of power, we have a freer

1486
02:16:20,239 --> 02:16:31,720
society than it is concentrated. Now
that the table stakes will be competitive in

1487
02:16:31,760 --> 02:16:37,639
al siddenly arising rapidly, so it's
not like anyone just to walk Class AI.

1488
02:16:37,840 --> 02:16:43,719
And you know, using a GPU
in their basement, terrible thing.

1489
02:16:45,399 --> 02:16:50,040
It's just kind of getting to the
point where this year it's probably in these

1490
02:16:50,079 --> 02:16:56,920
single digit billions in hardware to have
a seat at the adult table rather than

1491
02:16:56,920 --> 02:17:00,879
the kidding civil and next year it's
probably in the tens of billions. Be

1492
02:17:01,000 --> 02:17:05,959
hard work to remain at the set
of the adult stable rather than mcning stable.

1493
02:17:07,319 --> 02:17:18,120
So anyway, but well, I
think we'll try to be We'll probably

1494
02:17:18,120 --> 02:17:20,760
be a good aile all this.
I guess some truth be a people will

1495
02:17:20,760 --> 02:17:26,159
say, well against as someone may
want its creator, Well, it's kind

1496
02:17:26,200 --> 02:17:28,079
of like, well, in Who's
image? If that is true? In

1497
02:17:28,159 --> 02:17:33,719
W's image, would you want the
to be made? What should think about

1498
02:17:33,719 --> 02:17:41,479
that? Let's go to Sally's Sorry, I'm very sorry. I know your

1499
02:17:41,559 --> 02:17:43,239
name, but I at this moment
I am blanking and all you have are

1500
02:17:43,319 --> 02:17:50,920
emojis. But yeah, actually we
were probably do need to add more than

1501
02:17:50,959 --> 02:17:56,520
simply emojis here. It's hard to
define what somebody's saying just from an emoji.

1502
02:17:58,559 --> 02:18:03,200
Well, she locally has her name
made out of I think it's Solly

1503
02:18:03,360 --> 02:18:09,479
Saw right, that's the act.
So my name is Selma's thank you,

1504
02:18:09,040 --> 02:18:16,520
and I removed my name because of
what was talking Catherine? Thank you,

1505
02:18:18,159 --> 02:18:26,079
And now I'm just known as the
airplane. Airplane, that's what I can't

1506
02:18:31,680 --> 02:18:35,120
Yeah, that might be it.
I'm having a lot of issues with this

1507
02:18:35,200 --> 02:18:41,000
space in general. There's there's so
many people, there's and so many requests

1508
02:18:41,399 --> 02:18:46,440
that I think that it's glitching.
Hey, Elon, not Jerome Powell would

1509
02:18:46,559 --> 02:18:54,239
like to know if you still love
his printer. Well, we're just going

1510
02:18:54,280 --> 02:19:01,639
to keep going no matter what.
Yeah. Uh wait, how many dollars

1511
02:19:01,680 --> 02:19:09,040
will it be? Ultimately? Lot? At some point the chickens are gonna

1512
02:19:09,040 --> 02:19:16,239
come home to roost on the national
debt. I might might be our only

1513
02:19:16,319 --> 02:19:22,840
hope out of the crushing button of
national debt that will building. He did

1514
02:19:22,000 --> 02:19:26,760
promise to print me a billion dollars
if I asked you that question. So

1515
02:19:26,079 --> 02:19:30,639
we're going to hold him to it, or you can. I'm sure that's

1516
02:19:30,760 --> 02:19:33,600
worth a lot of money, right, yeah, I Elon, if he

1517
02:19:33,760 --> 02:19:41,879
does not give me a billion dollars, will you commit I don't agree to

1518
02:19:41,000 --> 02:19:46,840
anything. This is this my Will
you commit to banning his account if he

1519
02:19:46,920 --> 02:19:56,600
doesn't give me a billion dollars?
Yes? Thank you? Okay, this

1520
02:19:56,799 --> 02:20:01,079
God's spicy. I am curious to
see how that resolves itself now now he

1521
02:20:01,200 --> 02:20:07,840
has done. I'm sorry printing mister
Printing Press, your accounts seemed to be

1522
02:20:07,959 --> 02:20:11,959
banned unless you pay up. I'll
yes, I do. Oh, Catherine's

1523
02:20:13,559 --> 02:20:20,239
okay, she owes me everything.
So wait, is my mom on the

1524
02:20:20,319 --> 02:20:22,000
coal or not? I saw her? Well, I saw her and I

1525
02:20:22,120 --> 02:20:26,799
invited her. Can I still here? I can see her down there?

1526
02:20:26,840 --> 02:20:33,040
And then yeah, so is she
not wanting to come up because they sent

1527
02:20:33,040 --> 02:20:37,399
her an in? It could just
be a glitch too, because I tried.

1528
02:20:37,559 --> 02:20:41,159
I tried to get you a good
signs question, Elon, and and

1529
02:20:41,360 --> 02:20:45,639
I can't seem to bring that particular
person up either, so it might just

1530
02:20:45,760 --> 02:20:54,360
be a glitch kind of situation.
There's like a thousand requests. It's just

1531
02:20:54,280 --> 02:21:01,959
regular requests. Katherine. Sorry,
I want AirPods. I'm in the middle

1532
02:21:01,000 --> 02:21:05,959
of nowhere right now, so my
cell phone hours or my cell reception is

1533
02:21:05,000 --> 02:21:07,360
bad. But thank you so much. And I'll make this really quick.

1534
02:21:07,479 --> 02:21:11,440
I have three questions and I'll ask
him quick and feel free to answer in

1535
02:21:11,600 --> 02:21:16,239
whatever order you want. One three, I'll make it very quick. Let's

1536
02:21:16,319 --> 02:21:24,120
do Ylan, Do you have Catherine's
book? And is it signed? I

1537
02:21:24,280 --> 02:21:31,959
swear nothing to do with that.
I don't think. So, Okay,

1538
02:21:31,000 --> 02:21:35,280
well you could. I'm going to
use my ex revenue to get you on.

1539
02:21:35,760 --> 02:21:41,639
That's what I'm gonna do, Okay, Chacy, Okay, well we

1540
02:21:41,799 --> 02:21:43,920
will. I will send him a
book if should he want the book.

1541
02:21:45,799 --> 02:21:48,319
I did not know. This was
not my act. You made me buy

1542
02:21:48,479 --> 02:21:56,680
the book and you're just sending musk
over here at book for free, of

1543
02:21:56,719 --> 02:22:05,920
course, but I'll sign it.
Hello everybody, Hello, there your one's

1544
02:22:07,040 --> 02:22:13,719
mom. Yes, and I've woken
my dog because we're in New York and

1545
02:22:13,840 --> 02:22:20,719
now he thinks I said hello to
someone at the door. Well have you

1546
02:22:20,120 --> 02:22:24,959
have you heard this guy that sounds
just like me? The Chinese guy?

1547
02:22:26,440 --> 02:22:33,639
I am. There's another one.
Here's another one. Yes, I did

1548
02:22:35,200 --> 02:22:39,319
hear that too, and I thought
it was somebody else that is using AI

1549
02:22:39,520 --> 02:22:43,000
to you your boy else. I'm
trying to bring him back up. I

1550
02:22:43,280 --> 02:22:48,319
just dipped him. Yeah, it
just it just sounds like ant. Can

1551
02:22:48,399 --> 02:22:54,159
we can we do a contest and
see if you can tell the you guys

1552
02:22:54,239 --> 02:23:01,639
apart, if you guys can tell
him apart. Okay, this is so

1553
02:23:01,799 --> 02:23:07,239
weird, I can't do it.
Was that your son or was that not

1554
02:23:07,440 --> 02:23:13,399
could be. But get him into
a megaphone or something, Adrien, and

1555
02:23:13,520 --> 02:23:18,600
you stop talking a negative I'd have
to probably, I'd have to disconnect whatever

1556
02:23:18,639 --> 02:23:22,440
I'm using, like the the the
microphone is like a it's it's it's a

1557
02:23:22,479 --> 02:23:28,000
weird device. It's like a bone
conduction thing. It's yeah, it's quite

1558
02:23:28,079 --> 02:23:33,760
old. No, that's you.
I'm a very early adopter. Wait,

1559
02:23:33,559 --> 02:23:39,600
that was not me, that was
in fact Adrian. Whoa, Oh god,

1560
02:23:41,600 --> 02:23:48,200
my mom can't even your own mother
cannot tell you apart in mother's day.

1561
02:23:48,120 --> 02:23:52,280
That's a good, good imitation.
I don't know how you do it.

1562
02:23:54,200 --> 02:23:56,479
I don't know how I do it
either. I just simply exist.

1563
02:23:56,879 --> 02:24:05,079
That's bad enough. It's funding attention, it's I think that's literally just how

1564
02:24:05,159 --> 02:24:07,840
Adrian sounds every day. Yeah,
it's a weird thing. It's actually a

1565
02:24:07,879 --> 02:24:13,000
result of cognitive dissonance. I'm actually
a German, and I learned English through

1566
02:24:13,040 --> 02:24:16,319
the BBC World Service, and then
I learned the remainder of it through social

1567
02:24:16,360 --> 02:24:22,159
interactions with people in America. I
have a lot with you know, video

1568
02:24:22,200 --> 02:24:24,319
games or whatever. Right, so
at some point I hit this, Yeah,

1569
02:24:24,319 --> 02:24:28,120
I hit this level where I basically
mixed all of them together. You

1570
02:24:28,200 --> 02:24:30,959
have the little bit of the German, the area of the British, you

1571
02:24:31,000 --> 02:24:33,959
have the American. It all kind
of mixes together, and then I guess

1572
02:24:33,000 --> 02:24:37,440
it creates this and at some point
my voice drops. I guess it's some

1573
02:24:37,559 --> 02:24:41,680
really weird stuff that pieces this together
over time, because like before my you

1574
02:24:41,760 --> 02:24:46,319
know, if you are a person
who has is like on the spectrum like

1575
02:24:46,360 --> 02:24:50,479
that, your brain is very unstable
in the early stages of your life.

1576
02:24:50,799 --> 02:24:52,000
And so in order to make it
more stable, you need to kind of

1577
02:24:52,040 --> 02:24:56,360
like manufacture your own structure. And
so part of that is language and expression,

1578
02:24:56,719 --> 02:25:01,680
and so merging all of the all
of the abstract elements of the accent

1579
02:25:03,040 --> 02:25:07,040
of the accident together created this kind
of weird thing that then you know,

1580
02:25:07,280 --> 02:25:11,399
helps with the expression of well,
you know words, right, yeah,

1581
02:25:11,520 --> 02:25:20,719
does he does? He bark ambichan
Deutsch van other than comes to each Questian

1582
02:25:26,879 --> 02:25:39,079
sins long sam, I look,
scood, I look scood actually really right

1583
02:25:39,120 --> 02:25:48,319
here? Your what is that?
I mean, he's a younger version.

1584
02:25:48,680 --> 02:25:52,399
You know, he can start over, he makes a change. It's like

1585
02:25:52,440 --> 02:25:54,920
a blind. It's like a blind. But sometimes he's a bit of a

1586
02:25:56,600 --> 02:26:01,440
German accent coming out yeah, yeah, you got the you got the hard

1587
02:26:01,479 --> 02:26:03,040
course, you got the hard core
South African. I know a few friends

1588
02:26:03,079 --> 02:26:07,040
are South African. One of them, he's the guy who does agriculture.

1589
02:26:07,239 --> 02:26:11,520
Really interesting, dude, he does
hydroponics. I love this guy. Yeah,

1590
02:26:11,719 --> 02:26:13,559
he's cool. He sounds kind of
like he has exact accents that you

1591
02:26:13,719 --> 02:26:16,479
have. Yeah. It tells me
a lot of interesting stories about the country.

1592
02:26:16,760 --> 02:26:20,959
Yeah. A lot of positive stuff
too, which I really appreciate.

1593
02:26:20,639 --> 02:26:28,680
Okay, that's good. I mean, so what do you think now?

1594
02:26:31,799 --> 02:26:37,079
I was about to ask that,
Yeah, how trippy is? Are you

1595
02:26:37,120 --> 02:26:39,799
freaked out? Can a mother tell? Well? Well, you know,

1596
02:26:39,840 --> 02:26:43,959
if you keep on talking, I
will know, I will see where you

1597
02:26:43,360 --> 02:26:48,559
just go off the accent. Yeah, into a bit of a German acccene.

1598
02:26:48,600 --> 02:26:52,559
So then then I'll know it's not
alone. But pretty much he sounds

1599
02:26:52,639 --> 02:26:58,600
like it's it's bizarre. It's like
like an AI voice. I really that's

1600
02:26:58,600 --> 02:27:05,360
what you know. I can do
your own for you. Yeah, if

1601
02:27:05,399 --> 02:27:07,879
you get a particular direct question,
just tell me what not to say.

1602
02:27:09,959 --> 02:27:16,280
I think that'll be very entertaining.
We want to be quite funny. If

1603
02:27:16,760 --> 02:27:20,200
it was me and Adrian and uh, that Chinese guy that don't know if

1604
02:27:20,239 --> 02:27:28,879
that Chinese guy is actually real or
AI generated, but uh, if he's

1605
02:27:28,959 --> 02:27:33,840
real, then the three of us
on stage could really just be a total

1606
02:27:33,879 --> 02:27:41,840
accid. Yeah. I think it
would be very amusing and and fascinating.

1607
02:27:43,799 --> 02:27:48,120
I think that's a space that should
be done. And I think we should

1608
02:27:48,159 --> 02:27:52,319
have all sorts of impersonators on the
space and and the real people talking to

1609
02:27:52,600 --> 02:27:58,680
the I think that would be That's
a thought. That's what that one.

1610
02:27:58,760 --> 02:28:05,360
Right, There is one feature I
don't likes the soundboard line not expect Brian

1611
02:28:05,440 --> 02:28:13,120
of Eylan. Please remove the soundboard. I beg you as make it individually.

1612
02:28:13,799 --> 02:28:16,799
'll just make it individually adjustable like
with this word, right you can

1613
02:28:16,840 --> 02:28:22,840
actually Yeah, let that host funny. It is used correctly. Yeah,

1614
02:28:24,639 --> 02:28:30,639
it is perhaps like that. Yeah, what kind of beans did you have?

1615
02:28:35,280 --> 02:28:37,520
Yeah, let's definitely talk a well
for sure, Yeah, let's talk

1616
02:28:37,559 --> 02:28:43,360
about it. Brought on company that
I thought was going to be serious and

1617
02:28:43,879 --> 02:28:48,159
science, and this is what we
get. It's the twilet's go the twilet

1618
02:28:48,239 --> 02:28:54,239
flushing sound and sound. It's the
renic. And then you had the dog

1619
02:28:54,319 --> 02:29:00,520
for there is a dog sound.
There is a dog sounds. Your mask.

1620
02:29:01,040 --> 02:29:05,280
It's the only good one. Hello, yeah, now you're stearing it.

1621
02:29:11,600 --> 02:29:15,639
I like the siren. The siren
is the worst thing ever, It's

1622
02:29:15,639 --> 02:29:18,559
so beautiful. I had this once
in a debate and I dropped something and

1623
02:29:18,559 --> 02:29:20,559
all of a sudden everybody started spamming
the soundboards it with the fire shit.

1624
02:29:20,600 --> 02:29:24,399
Ever. I wish I had ported
it. But then yeah, oh god,

1625
02:29:28,200 --> 02:29:37,040
he became he became the Druid.
Now yeah, but what is stuff?

1626
02:29:41,239 --> 02:30:05,399
Oh my god, you sound like
you're inside the Stasha. Now you

1627
02:30:05,520 --> 02:30:13,520
sound like this is a this is
a helium balloon. Do you actually have

1628
02:30:13,639 --> 02:30:22,479
a helium balloon on you right now? Yeah? I'm balloon? Oh god,

1629
02:30:24,479 --> 02:30:30,840
Okay, now back to normal?
Elon shout sure were you sure?

1630
02:30:30,959 --> 02:30:33,680
Back to me? Can you say, just for Catherine Brodsky's benefit, that

1631
02:30:33,760 --> 02:30:39,559
this is the best space You've ever
been in? It's the best space I've

1632
02:30:39,600 --> 02:30:46,319
ever been in? Thank you?
It was. It was pretty pretty fun

1633
02:30:46,360 --> 02:30:58,639
and entertaining. And yeah, Catherine, can, I asked? And there

1634
02:30:58,680 --> 02:31:03,719
we were. We went from like
a serious conversation to like really random questions

1635
02:31:03,760 --> 02:31:18,959
to healium balloons. Far to win
then and soundedlikes yes, I meant,

1636
02:31:18,280 --> 02:31:26,120
yeah, quite journey. We really
I could do really quite the journey,

1637
02:31:26,520 --> 02:31:33,680
missus mask. This wasn't av Is
Elon too old to be grounded to his

1638
02:31:33,879 --> 02:31:41,479
room for abusing these voices? Yeah, I didn't think I've sent him to

1639
02:31:41,600 --> 02:31:46,639
a room since he was I don't
know how often did I send you to

1640
02:31:46,719 --> 02:31:50,399
a room eto, It's never to
start, very rare if I did.

1641
02:31:50,479 --> 02:31:54,319
Ever, you had lots to read. You were always happy to read,

1642
02:31:54,440 --> 02:32:01,760
so that was fun. And then
video games? Was he a good teenager?

1643
02:32:01,920 --> 02:32:07,719
Was he a rebellious teenager? No? Good? But he would fall

1644
02:32:07,799 --> 02:32:11,040
off roofs and out of trees.
He would fall out of trees. Yeah,

1645
02:32:13,159 --> 02:32:16,760
how is it a punishment to send
a teenager to their to their realm?

1646
02:32:16,280 --> 02:32:20,120
They just played video games. They
love to be in their ream Yeah,

1647
02:32:20,120 --> 02:32:22,680
but he was who knews? What
else they were in video games in

1648
02:32:22,799 --> 02:32:26,120
his time? Really? Well,
there weren't video games that you're play in

1649
02:32:26,159 --> 02:32:31,200
my room. There wasn't a well
to use a TV, so there's only

1650
02:32:31,239 --> 02:32:41,280
one TV. Yeah that options or
you made your own own video game at

1651
02:32:41,799 --> 02:32:46,559
twelve years old. And when I
showed it to the engineers at the university,

1652
02:32:48,079 --> 02:32:50,360
they said, wow, he knows
all the shortcuts. And I thought,

1653
02:32:50,479 --> 02:32:58,639
okay, I only had like ak
Rams. So what was the video

1654
02:32:58,719 --> 02:33:03,040
game E one? What was a
Blessed Star? Yeah? I mean it's

1655
02:33:03,079 --> 02:33:07,680
just it's a space video game where
you're fighting an aliens fighting up an alien

1656
02:33:07,719 --> 02:33:13,520
spaceship. I like space in Beatis, but more of a one on one

1657
02:33:13,639 --> 02:33:18,479
jewel So I guess I just played
an early interest in space. So I

1658
02:33:18,639 --> 02:33:20,520
peel like, were you always interested
in space? Well? I did.

1659
02:33:20,959 --> 02:33:22,840
The first video game that I actually
sold the money was, in fact the

1660
02:33:22,879 --> 02:33:28,440
Space video game, so that suggests
an early interesting space. And then you

1661
02:33:28,559 --> 02:33:31,239
got five hundred dollars for it,
but they didn't know you were twelve,

1662
02:33:31,440 --> 02:33:35,280
but it was published when you were
thirteen. Yeah. Yeah, but then

1663
02:33:35,319 --> 02:33:41,799
I didn't actually have a bank account, so that I I didn't get a

1664
02:33:41,799 --> 02:33:43,639
bank account to but yeah, I
didn't know I was a kid. So

1665
02:33:46,280 --> 02:33:50,920
did you Did you ever blow anything
up? Yeah? Sure, blow up

1666
02:33:50,959 --> 02:33:56,159
lots of spas. Yeah, but
I didn't see it, of course,

1667
02:33:56,280 --> 02:34:00,440
because I would go crazy if that
happened. I think every one does that

1668
02:34:00,799 --> 02:34:03,760
at some point in their lives.
I blew up a rock once just because

1669
02:34:03,159 --> 02:34:09,559
it was a bad idea. I
set a fire to a playground. This

1670
02:34:09,840 --> 02:34:15,639
was probably not a good idea.
In retrospect, I can see that I

1671
02:34:15,719 --> 02:34:20,760
could see Catherine setting fire to the
playground. I loved. I love that

1672
02:34:20,920 --> 02:34:28,600
stuff, Catherine. Guys about your
book to Elan, Oh my god,

1673
02:34:28,760 --> 02:34:31,319
I feel so bad, like very
kind of you guys to pin my book.

1674
02:34:31,479 --> 02:34:37,040
But I feel yeah, I mean, I think I'm sorry. That

1675
02:34:37,159 --> 02:34:43,840
was an opener and I really really
want that right right, So go ahead

1676
02:34:43,840 --> 02:34:46,000
and ask you a question and then
we'll go to broad Okay, thank you,

1677
02:34:46,600 --> 02:34:54,520
So okay, Eilan question. I'm
a woman, and I'm sure you've

1678
02:34:54,559 --> 02:34:58,079
gotten this question plenty of times.
I've seen you somewhat respond to it.

1679
02:34:58,319 --> 02:35:07,079
But the running community is wondering why
certain accounts of that basically sponsored by this

1680
02:35:07,559 --> 02:35:13,879
republic, that call for the active
genocide of not just Iranians themselves, but

1681
02:35:13,040 --> 02:35:20,520
Jewish people and the destruction of the
state of Israel, why are they allowed

1682
02:35:22,280 --> 02:35:30,399
to be on that You've mentioned that, it's there's like hominy because here's the

1683
02:35:30,479 --> 02:35:35,200
thing. People in your aren't allowed
to use Twitter and sorry x sorry,

1684
02:35:35,840 --> 02:35:41,879
So people are not allowed to use
this app, but the government belf actively

1685
02:35:43,000 --> 02:35:46,959
uses it, and because especially when
they cut off the internet when they're doing

1686
02:35:48,079 --> 02:35:54,879
executions. So we're just wondering what
would it take to remove these accounts from

1687
02:35:54,959 --> 02:36:03,559
this platform. Well, I am
an. Accounts which call for yeah out

1688
02:36:03,559 --> 02:36:11,959
of call for for violence or uh
death uh illegal are supposed to be suspended.

1689
02:36:11,120 --> 02:36:15,559
So if they're not being suspended,
that's an oversight. Now we do

1690
02:36:15,760 --> 02:36:20,239
have we're call a sort of an
UN exemption, which is that if if

1691
02:36:20,479 --> 02:36:28,040
if if it's a recognized government,
you know, let's say that Iatola who

1692
02:36:28,280 --> 02:36:31,399
is capable, is able to say
these things at the u N, then

1693
02:36:31,559 --> 02:36:35,079
we do allow them on the platform. For the same reason that that we

1694
02:36:35,440 --> 02:36:37,360
sort of generally agreed that it's better
to have the new end and not to

1695
02:36:37,360 --> 02:36:43,239
have the u N, although some
were disagree with me on that because you

1696
02:36:43,319 --> 02:36:46,680
know, sometimes you want to sort
of understand what is their real position.

1697
02:36:46,440 --> 02:36:54,360
So you know, if people are
uncertain as to whether, say Iran,

1698
02:36:54,879 --> 02:36:58,760
what's the annihilation of Israel, well
you can just go look at the Idolos

1699
02:36:58,799 --> 02:37:05,879
commount counties pretty clear that they do
it fact want then So yeah, But

1700
02:37:05,959 --> 02:37:11,079
apart from the sort of UN exemption
of if somebody is recognized leader by the

1701
02:37:11,200 --> 02:37:15,159
Yuan of the country, which means
we allow them to come to New York

1702
02:37:15,200 --> 02:37:18,360
even if they're under sanctions, and
you know, say also it's about rageous

1703
02:37:18,399 --> 02:37:24,200
things at the at the partium in
Yuan, then in the interest of sulitating

1704
02:37:26,000 --> 02:37:31,280
globill so some kind of dialogue,
we do allow them to be on the

1705
02:37:31,360 --> 02:37:35,360
system. And obviously if we if
we if we apply the rule of well,

1706
02:37:35,360 --> 02:37:41,079
if any politician says outrageous things that
they get suspended, well we're suspending

1707
02:37:41,079 --> 02:37:46,319
a lot of American politicians too.
You know, Lindsey Graham keeps wanting to

1708
02:37:46,360 --> 02:37:50,079
bomb Iran and and many other places. For example, we don't suspend him,

1709
02:37:54,040 --> 02:37:56,879
thank you. I mean, I
understand, we just you know,

1710
02:37:56,399 --> 02:38:01,559
other platforms that have been on them, and I understand the situation that a

1711
02:38:01,760 --> 02:38:05,639
platform such as this would be.
But when we do see active calls of

1712
02:38:05,840 --> 02:38:11,280
destruction of people, you know,
and then other people fall along with it,

1713
02:38:11,040 --> 02:38:20,520
it's somewhat the question arises of what
is why is a world leader calling

1714
02:38:20,360 --> 02:38:26,559
the destruction of not only community but
an entire country and also the denial of

1715
02:38:26,639 --> 02:38:33,600
the Holocaust itself. And so we're
just hoping that maybe something can be done,

1716
02:38:33,639 --> 02:38:37,280
maybe the verification can go away,
maybe they can be monitored, because

1717
02:38:37,479 --> 02:38:41,360
they do have a lot of their
own employees on the account as well.

1718
02:38:41,399 --> 02:38:46,760
They have around like two hundred fifty
thousand Fiber Battalion cyber Army people that do

1719
02:38:46,959 --> 02:38:54,120
trol this platform and do get a
lot of us reported, and smear campaigns

1720
02:38:54,159 --> 02:38:58,360
go on, and earlier there was
a conversation around doxing, which it is

1721
02:38:58,600 --> 02:39:03,360
very I mean, we have Pride
reporting all of these and nothing really happens,

1722
02:39:03,040 --> 02:39:09,319
and these accounts are continuously going on, boxing in smear campaigns not just

1723
02:39:09,559 --> 02:39:16,559
on public figures, but on individuals
such as myself or others that you know,

1724
02:39:16,719 --> 02:39:20,120
our lives can be in danger,
our families, lives actually are in

1725
02:39:20,239 --> 02:39:24,760
Iran, can be in danger.
So I appreciate you taking the time to

1726
02:39:24,799 --> 02:39:28,479
answer that, but I hope,
hope that maybe there can be a little

1727
02:39:28,520 --> 02:39:33,879
bit more structure around that and a
little bit more attention to people that for

1728
02:39:33,959 --> 02:39:37,600
example, I know you mentioned a
couple of months ago calling from you know,

1729
02:39:37,040 --> 02:39:39,680
a call to genocide of from the
River to the Sea, calls for

1730
02:39:39,719 --> 02:39:43,719
active suspension, and there are people
that are still doing this day. So

1731
02:39:45,159 --> 02:39:46,920
I appreciate everything you're doing. I
know that you've done a lot for the

1732
02:39:48,079 --> 02:39:52,760
running community, but it is an
ask from us to maybe try and monitor

1733
02:39:52,879 --> 02:40:00,799
certain accounts that have large followings that
actively but people's lives in danger. Okay,

1734
02:40:00,920 --> 02:40:07,959
sure, yeah, I will look
into it. And you know it's

1735
02:40:07,680 --> 02:40:13,159
it's not always easy, like obviously
you know, it's easier to review things

1736
02:40:13,200 --> 02:40:16,200
that are in English. If they
are a far see, it's a little

1737
02:40:16,200 --> 02:40:22,879
a little harder. But the rules
of the platform are suddenly that you know,

1738
02:40:22,159 --> 02:40:28,319
equally for the death or the structure
of individuals or nations is illegal and

1739
02:40:28,719 --> 02:40:33,360
what resultant suspension with the exception of
the u N rule, which is that

1740
02:40:33,440 --> 02:40:35,399
if somebody is a recognized world leader
and can say that the u N,

1741
02:40:35,479 --> 02:40:39,079
then we do allow them to say
it on the platform for the same reason

1742
02:40:39,120 --> 02:40:43,399
that we allowed the UN to you
know, your General Assembly to gather in

1743
02:40:43,440 --> 02:40:48,000
New York and and say outrageous things. You know, it's not a cut

1744
02:40:48,040 --> 02:40:54,799
situation, but probably better than than
not having any contact from them. So

1745
02:40:56,639 --> 02:41:01,920
all right, cool, Well,
I think think all the times you wrap

1746
02:41:03,000 --> 02:41:05,840
this up. If we go to
a last question and then we'll wrap up.

1747
02:41:07,360 --> 02:41:11,639
Elon. This is Brian Keating and
professor of physics at U SEE San

1748
02:41:11,680 --> 02:41:16,040
Diego. I got two physics questions
I'm hoping you can answer or chime in

1749
02:41:16,159 --> 02:41:20,719
on. So I study the cosmic
microwat background radiation, which is the after

1750
02:41:20,879 --> 02:41:24,840
glow of the Big Bang Whi's discovered
sixty five years sixty years ago or so,

1751
02:41:24,520 --> 02:41:31,879
and this radiation is thermaline origin.
And we are applauding your efforts in

1752
02:41:31,920 --> 02:41:35,959
the astronomy community to make the Starlink
satellites dark for optical astronomy. But we

1753
02:41:37,239 --> 02:41:41,120
microwave astronomers who use signals. We're
trying to detect this after glow of inflationary

1754
02:41:41,239 --> 02:41:46,920
gravitational waves in Cuban, essentially in
Cuban, and you know, there's really

1755
02:41:48,000 --> 02:41:52,399
no way to block out a million
kelvin equivalent signal that you're transmitting with starling.

1756
02:41:52,639 --> 02:41:54,840
I'm wondering, is there any way
we could work with you from the

1757
02:41:54,959 --> 02:42:01,399
South Pole or Chile where our observatories
are located, to absolutetive availability or some

1758
02:42:01,559 --> 02:42:03,959
way, because once this channel is
gone, we'll never get it back.

1759
02:42:05,120 --> 02:42:09,159
And this is, you know,
potentially precluding a view into the you know,

1760
02:42:09,239 --> 02:42:13,760
inflationary origin of the cosmos. So
I know, I know it's very

1761
02:42:13,760 --> 02:42:16,239
important to you, and we're appreciative
of the astronomy efforts and optical astronomy,

1762
02:42:16,280 --> 02:42:24,360
but microwave is a totally different ballgame. Sure, I do think long term,

1763
02:42:24,799 --> 02:42:31,840
the right place for telescopes or really
any a quotroon receiver is in orbit

1764
02:42:31,120 --> 02:42:37,000
or you know, basically space,
so you don't have the experience worth and

1765
02:42:37,520 --> 02:42:43,559
as you're a starship starts launching,
we can put up some pretty big heelescopes

1766
02:42:43,079 --> 02:42:50,120
or yeah, ten meter diameter telescopes, so pretty hard to put and they

1767
02:42:50,159 --> 02:42:54,000
don't really unfold the way that web
would. But I mean, I think

1768
02:42:54,040 --> 02:42:56,399
we'll be telling that the selective availability. I'm basically blanking it over the South

1769
02:42:56,440 --> 02:43:01,120
Pole. We only have two locations
on Earth where we need to have it

1770
02:43:01,239 --> 02:43:07,600
unobstructed. Okay, is there's someone
would you say like these basically just stuff

1771
02:43:07,719 --> 02:43:13,959
stoff transmitting just over these. Yeah, it's the two observatory, Yeah,

1772
02:43:13,959 --> 02:43:16,959
in the out of Comma Desert in
Chile a seventeen thousand feet and the South

1773
02:43:16,000 --> 02:43:22,000
Pole Antarctica, which is, yeah, place we'd love to take you,

1774
02:43:22,079 --> 02:43:26,799
by the way, Simon's Observatory,
Jim Simon's funded it, and that's of

1775
02:43:26,879 --> 02:43:33,520
Science Foundation funds the South Pole observatco
BISOP and then but yeah, so if

1776
02:43:33,559 --> 02:43:37,200
you if you have any resources he
could put me in touch with, they

1777
02:43:37,200 --> 02:43:43,079
would be really appreciated. Yeah,
I mean, I'll talk to these songs

1778
02:43:43,079 --> 02:43:48,040
to you about this. I have
a we have a technical update every week.

1779
02:43:50,159 --> 02:43:58,680
So I was about any observation and
microwaves spectrum and out of Comma and

1780
02:43:58,799 --> 02:44:05,120
the antartica. So now we don't
wish to do in any way the pharmacy

1781
02:44:05,120 --> 02:44:07,879
of science. That would be awesome, thank you. I have one more

1782
02:44:07,959 --> 02:44:11,600
question, just related to physics and
AI and related to Catherine's book which brought

1783
02:44:11,680 --> 02:44:16,799
us all here together tonight. The
Katherine congratulations Mazeltov them a book. So

1784
02:44:16,959 --> 02:44:20,040
the book called No Apologies. One
of the things I hate most about chat

1785
02:44:20,120 --> 02:44:24,520
GPT woke GPT is you know,
he'll ask you some question. I'll say,

1786
02:44:24,520 --> 02:44:26,079
you know, what did Brian Keating
Wright And I'll say, you know,

1787
02:44:26,200 --> 02:44:30,840
losing the Nobel Prize correct, you
know, into the impossible correct.

1788
02:44:31,200 --> 02:44:33,920
And then I'll say a brief history
of time? No that's not correct.

1789
02:44:33,959 --> 02:44:37,559
And I'll say, no, that's
not right. I didn't write that's Stephen

1790
02:44:37,600 --> 02:44:41,000
Hawking. And then we'll talk.
I apologize, I apologize, I hate

1791
02:44:41,040 --> 02:44:45,840
that, I hate the I want
them Katherine Brodsky, No apologies, but

1792
02:44:46,239 --> 02:44:48,079
but it made me think about a
true Turing test, and I want to

1793
02:44:48,079 --> 02:44:52,680
get your opinion on I've asked Nick
Bostrom and David Chalmers and your greatest ideas

1794
02:44:52,719 --> 02:44:56,559
and thinkers. Peter di Amanda's our
mutual friend. I said, do you

1795
02:44:56,639 --> 02:45:01,239
know what Einstein called his happiest thought? Elon? That gave him shivers and

1796
02:45:01,639 --> 02:45:07,239
titillated him. Do you know what
he said that once? He said,

1797
02:45:07,159 --> 02:45:13,399
that's PG. Don't worry, he
said. He said it was that an

1798
02:45:13,440 --> 02:45:20,360
observer in freefall would experience no gravitational
force. And it made me think,

1799
02:45:20,520 --> 02:45:26,879
because to what extent could a computer
or some silicon or even quantum computer,

1800
02:45:26,040 --> 02:45:35,600
could it even have either the happiest
thought or be experienced the sensation of visceral

1801
02:45:35,680 --> 02:45:39,760
sensation of free fol So I'm wondering
if you could propose another, you know,

1802
02:45:39,840 --> 02:45:43,760
kind of Turing toast, a different
definition of AGI, which would be

1803
02:45:43,159 --> 02:45:48,040
actually coming up with new laws of
physics or new complete paradigms of physics rather

1804
02:45:48,120 --> 02:45:50,920
than just you know, physics is
a base way of reality. I mean

1805
02:45:52,000 --> 02:45:56,440
you always quote that, right,
So what to what extent could we could

1806
02:45:56,479 --> 02:46:01,079
we redefine AI is when it becomes
generally intelligent when it can experience happy thoughts,

1807
02:46:03,319 --> 02:46:07,079
free fall and other things like that. So curious about your thoughts fact,

1808
02:46:09,319 --> 02:46:15,159
well, I think you can certainly
have a that I would think it's

1809
02:46:15,159 --> 02:46:18,479
a would not realize this to the
simulation which maybe in the case for us

1810
02:46:18,559 --> 02:46:24,440
right now, and that would have
a you know, a true physics engine

1811
02:46:24,280 --> 02:46:28,719
and falling away that a human would
fall and thus experienced sensations in the same

1812
02:46:28,760 --> 02:46:37,760
way I do think about. I
do think there are some the simulations I

1813
02:46:37,799 --> 02:46:46,239
have lots us does explain some elements
of quantum mechanics, such as, you

1814
02:46:46,280 --> 02:46:50,360
know, only collapsing the probability distribution
when you look at something like why why

1815
02:46:50,399 --> 02:46:54,120
would something the LHC when you look
at it, Well, if it's if

1816
02:46:54,120 --> 02:46:58,799
it's rendering in real time, then
that's actually how video game works. Like

1817
02:46:58,920 --> 02:47:03,040
if you're in video like to say
in World war craftice something, and you

1818
02:47:03,319 --> 02:47:09,559
walk through a forest and there's a
rash and a rat appears. But before

1819
02:47:09,600 --> 02:47:11,559
that was there a rat or not
a rat. There was only a probability

1820
02:47:11,639 --> 02:47:16,479
of a rat. So and the
rat only became real when you when you

1821
02:47:16,559 --> 02:47:20,000
look in that direction. That collapse
of quality space and rat appeared. So

1822
02:47:22,479 --> 02:47:28,559
so I think version theory actually explains
a lot of things that seemed quite mysterious,

1823
02:47:28,600 --> 02:47:35,200
the stroderings Cat situation. But it
required infinite infinite compute, right,

1824
02:47:35,200 --> 02:47:41,559
because you could always say who simulates
the simulators? Infinite regret? Right,

1825
02:47:41,719 --> 02:47:48,120
It does beg the question of where's
where's the simulator running? Yeah, and

1826
02:47:48,680 --> 02:47:52,600
and it may be that that that
you have a whole series of nested simulations.

1827
02:47:52,920 --> 02:48:01,399
But at some point there is the
unsimulated thing. But ultimately the physical

1828
02:48:01,479 --> 02:48:03,879
reality. I mean, all these
things are gonna be running on a rocky

1829
02:48:03,959 --> 02:48:07,120
planet somewhere, right that doesn't have
infinite copper. It doesn't have infinite mineral

1830
02:48:07,319 --> 02:48:11,520
density to retrieve. So I mean
there are planetary limits to growth, as

1831
02:48:11,600 --> 02:48:16,159
you know, the Club of Rome
would call it. Don't those provide I

1832
02:48:16,239 --> 02:48:20,760
mean you can't imagine, you know, changing the physical reality of an earth

1833
02:48:20,920 --> 02:48:24,840
like planet. You know, you
can't imagine these simulations running on something very

1834
02:48:24,920 --> 02:48:26,360
different from an Earth like planet.
It's not going to run on a Boltzmann

1835
02:48:26,399 --> 02:48:31,319
brain. So at some level it
needs physical reality. And so again you

1836
02:48:31,360 --> 02:48:33,159
can't break a lot of the physics. So how does it get around the

1837
02:48:33,200 --> 02:48:37,840
planetary resource problem. You can't make
an infinite number of paper clips on a

1838
02:48:37,920 --> 02:48:45,399
finite planet. Well, I don't
make if you really need that much.

1839
02:48:48,760 --> 02:48:54,120
It's not really like like the universe
may seem infinite to us. But frankly,

1840
02:48:54,120 --> 02:48:56,520
if I was creating a simulation that's
reality out you know, out with

1841
02:48:56,639 --> 02:49:00,840
the stars far enough the way that
we do not have to simulate the details

1842
02:49:00,879 --> 02:49:05,879
of the planets, and in fact
that it's the situation. So you really

1843
02:49:05,959 --> 02:49:11,920
just have to simulate type fidelity what
is observed on our planet as much?

1844
02:49:11,040 --> 02:49:18,479
How much is their task than old
of reality? And I sort of you

1845
02:49:18,559 --> 02:49:22,799
know, joking that, you know, when the James Web telescope went up,

1846
02:49:22,879 --> 02:49:28,200
that maybe the reason for the blaze
was that the simulators needed to bring

1847
02:49:28,280 --> 02:49:31,639
more computers online because now that we
can see further, they needed to improve

1848
02:49:33,000 --> 02:49:37,600
they of their simulation, so like
their equivalent of Amazon Web Services or something.

1849
02:49:43,479 --> 02:49:48,239
I'd like I'd like to add that
I don't think German Elon Voice could

1850
02:49:48,360 --> 02:49:54,159
answer in the same way as Elon
did. Yeah, there's a gap.

1851
02:49:54,319 --> 02:49:56,879
There's a gap. There's a huge
Dolge gap. He's older than me.

1852
02:50:00,120 --> 02:50:03,719
There's a difference in the simulations.
You know, like you know they're not

1853
02:50:03,879 --> 02:50:09,440
exact. There's irregularities, they don't
quite match up. I think there needs

1854
02:50:09,479 --> 02:50:15,760
to be It's like our yeah,
and if I wasn't at least pretty good

1855
02:50:15,799 --> 02:50:20,639
at physics, then the ruckus would
explode and the cause wouldn't work because physics

1856
02:50:20,719 --> 02:50:22,079
is a very harsh judge. I
mean, I like to say that,

1857
02:50:24,159 --> 02:50:26,959
you know, physics is the law
and everything else is recommendation, meaning that

1858
02:50:28,120 --> 02:50:31,079
you know you can't break physics,
but but plenty of people can break the

1859
02:50:31,159 --> 02:50:39,559
law. And if you're breaking physics, you're you're either run or you need

1860
02:50:39,600 --> 02:50:43,200
a Nobel prize, but most likely
you're wrong. He like, can I

1861
02:50:43,200 --> 02:50:46,360
ask you a question? A father
of half as many kids as you have?

1862
02:50:48,079 --> 02:50:52,440
Sure, so I've heard it said, you know you want to you

1863
02:50:52,479 --> 02:50:56,399
want to die on Mars, and
our mutual friend Lord Martin Reese said,

1864
02:50:56,479 --> 02:51:01,360
I just hope it's not on impact, and I agree with that. But

1865
02:51:01,840 --> 02:51:05,280
you know, being a father,
you've got that cute kid probably right next

1866
02:51:05,319 --> 02:51:11,000
to you. I mean, yeah, I mean, but you have other

1867
02:51:11,079 --> 02:51:15,159
kids too, and I mean to
say goodbye to a child is I mean

1868
02:51:15,280 --> 02:51:18,799
you, I don't have to tell
you that it's the most painful thing you

1869
02:51:18,840 --> 02:51:22,760
can ever imagine. But wouldn't you
have to? I mean, wouldn't that

1870
02:51:22,879 --> 02:51:26,959
be kind of the ultimate, you
know, going away on a business trip,

1871
02:51:26,360 --> 02:51:28,399
if you were to do that.
I mean, I just I don't

1872
02:51:28,440 --> 02:51:31,719
know. I find it hard to
go away on a trip, but I

1873
02:51:31,799 --> 02:51:33,479
know you take your kids with you. I got one of my girls right

1874
02:51:33,600 --> 02:51:37,079
here with me right now, and
she doesn't want to go to bed.

1875
02:51:37,479 --> 02:51:39,799
But I mean, what would you
do? I mean, could you really

1876
02:51:39,840 --> 02:51:43,440
say goodbye to some of your kids
or some of the people you love,

1877
02:51:43,520 --> 02:51:50,879
maybe your mom never see her again. Well I don't want to say good

1878
02:51:50,920 --> 02:52:01,680
guy. I mean we'll well,
we'll didventually. I think we don't have

1879
02:52:01,799 --> 02:52:05,520
to worry about that for a few
more years, Okay, I think so

1880
02:52:05,719 --> 02:52:09,639
two plus. Maybe they'll want to
come on the trip, right, you

1881
02:52:09,719 --> 02:52:13,319
don't know, and maybe it'd be
quicker, so you can come back if

1882
02:52:13,360 --> 02:52:16,000
you want. Is you fear?
You fear a lot of things in your

1883
02:52:16,079 --> 02:52:22,879
life, but most don't happen.
That's very true, very true, so

1884
02:52:24,000 --> 02:52:31,159
much She and and uh and and
his mom who's doctor musk. So two

1885
02:52:31,239 --> 02:52:35,600
musks on one space and then one
one person who sounds alike, so you

1886
02:52:35,719 --> 02:52:39,799
know it's been a it's been an
interesting trip. I think it's not quite

1887
02:52:39,840 --> 02:52:43,159
a trip to Mars, but you
know, a trip that's three fun.

1888
02:52:43,479 --> 02:52:48,040
But but but Catherine, we've got
we've got you, We've got will X,

1889
02:52:48,479 --> 02:52:54,879
we've got made video space hosted by
Catherine when they come out, can

1890
02:52:54,920 --> 02:53:03,680
we make that happen? Thanks everyone
for joining. Really appreciate and really appreciate

1891
02:53:03,760 --> 02:53:07,959
Elon for being here and taking so
many questions as well. So thanks everyone,

1892
02:53:07,360 --> 02:53:11,000
and uh, we'll see you in
Mars. We'll urg just on the

1893
02:53:11,079 --> 02:53:20,440
platform X whichever congratu there in space
somewhere. Goodnight, everybody, it's midnight

1894
02:53:20,520 --> 02:53:22,600
here. Good night, good good
night.
