I'm sorry, but the Edon Mask has not been able to join. So
instead of having Edon Mask, who has been uh quote by some other meetings,
I have his clone Edon musk. Yeah you don't thank you, thank
you. Hey, guys, mhm h. You know you have to know
that no one in Paris believed that you would be in personal. They all
said, yeah, he's not coming, going to come. He was already
at Versailles for Truth France, so he's not going to come and it would
be a video. So is it rain? Are you right? I'm a
hologram, A is a hologram or an android? Elan. It is a
pleasure and an n to have you, so thank you for making the trip.
I know that it has a lot been very easy, and I know
also that for the first time in my life I will interview somebody who was
introduct Yes, yes, you told me. I started out that way,
shy and introduct. So I'm asking the audience to be a little bit gentle
with Ellen because it's so shy that he needs your support. And on top
of that, on top of that is speaking in front of his motor so
you can imagine how difficult it is. Sad yeah. So as you have
seen since we have announced your participation, it has been quite something because everyone
wanted to be here, so we had to change. We had the very
imodest room with only one thousand and five hundred people, okay, and we
had to move here. And you have to know that the Dome Do Party
is the place where there is the musicals. So we are not expecting you
to sing or to dance, but if you can do it, we would
be very happy. Yeah. But you have also to know that this is
the room where Steve Jobs was coming. Every time it was doing a keynote
or presenting new products, it was here. Okay. So I hope that
you like the symbol and you you don't need any introduction. Your name is
a brand, is already a brand. It's a brand for innovation, for
ambition, for perfume. Yes, yes, this is the agreement that you
made with the art No family a few hours ago. I mean it's I
mean really brands itself. Yeah. And you are the origin of papal Tesla
SpaceX, to name a few, and even open the Eye. So you
love taking risks and you are going always against the tide and the popular wisdom.
You have been always proven right now there is now there is a bet
of the forty four billion US dollar question, which is will you still be
right with Twitter? Sure? So it was expensive, Yeah, I don't
know if um you know, listen, if I'm so smart, why did
I pay so much for Twitter? Then? So, as I'm not a
journalist, I'm not trying to get headlines and to have provocative response and to
make us cool. But nevertheless, if you wish to do that, it
is authorized. Okay, great, So we are expecting that you will really
make the show because everyone came here to see you, to listen to you,
and to get some of the magic that you have. All right,
well, but I'm honored that you all. I want to listen to what
I have to say. It's great to see the crowd, and I know
you guys seem awesome. So but you told me that you would like you
said that you would like to speak in French. Oh my goodness. So
there are some people who believe that you are genius, and yeah, there
are some you will believe that you are evil. So okay, I mean
you can be both. We I mean you could be an evil genius.
That's not you know, so you we can what you are? Oh you
will let the people that awful trusion. Um, I am definitely not evil.
Yeah, can me? What is the thing that you have ahead of
your own? Yes? So if you, if you're careful, you can
see an angel's halo on my head and the wings. It's a subtle.
But are the wings, Yeah, there's They're difficult to see, but if
you look carefully, you know they're right there, small wings. Yes.
Um so yeah, no, no, hopefully not evil. That's aspirationally not
evil. Um so yeah. Um okay, so that was. You have
done a lot of operation. You have created a lot of companies. The
most important question for everyone is what the hell is driving you? Why are
you so obsessed by new operation, new creation, new things to do?
Yeah, Crystal mess it's the answer. Um if you think red Bull gives
your wings? Um so, man, that that that's that that quote's gonna
probably staying um so, um yeah, just kidding for the record. Um
so, well, I think there's The companies still have a lot to do
for their the core mission. Um, the you know, for electric vehicles
to stainable energy. Still less than one percent of the global fleet is electric,
so We've got about two billion cars and trucks on the road, but
it's still less than twenty million are electric at this point. So there's still
a long way to go for sustainable energy, for sustainable energy generation. So
this, you know, the test emission. I think we've we've made a
lot of progress, but still, um, it's a lot more ahead then
SpaceX. The goal is it's a it's a big goal, but it's we
want to try to make life multiplanetary, to extend life beyond Earth. And
I think this is important for a number of reasons. But um, yeah,
there's there's the sort of defensive reason of ensuring that the light of consciousness
does not go out. Um. And if I made some of these crushes,
if I'm going on too long, you feel free to interrupt me,
but you can, okay, okay, So um, you know, people
do ask me, you know, have I seen UFOs and aliens and that
kind of thing? And I haven't, um, and I think I would
have seen them by now. Um. So it appears that we might we
might be the only consciousness at least in this galaxy. And and if so,
that's kind of a scary prospect because it means that the light of consciousness
is like a like a tiny candle in a vast darkness, and we should
do everything we can to prevent that candle from going out. So yeah,
and and so some of the things. So that means obviously taking the actions
to ensure that Earth is good, that Earth is safe and secure for civilization,
um and it I think it also means extending life beyond Earth, to
other planets in the Solar System and ultimately to other star systems. And I
think that's that's both a sort of defense of the line of consciousness and also
I think a point of inspiration, because life cannot just be about solving one
problem after another. We need things that inspire us. I mean, we
need things that prove our hearts and that when you wake up in the morning,
you're excited to be alive and being a space bearing civilization and making true
the things that we see in the good science fiction movies. This is one
of the things that I think can inspire all of humanity, just like the
you know, when the National Twins of the Moon in sixty nine, it
was something that then they said for mankind, you know, and it really
was something you say to any human on Earth. What's these what's like the
most amazing thing that humanity has ever done a lot of At least one of
those things would be to find out more or to purchase this trunk, Matt,
click the link in the video description or click the link in the pin
comment below. We went to the moon, you know, And so you
want to have these inspiring things that make you excited to be alive and excited
about the future. Yeah, and you you had those souls and dreams when
you are a kid or this game much later on. Well, I didn't
think I would be doing these things as a kid, m That's for sure.
I was interested in technology. I read a lot of books, so
I was obviously interested in science. I mean, this is hard, They're
going to be surprising. I was interested in science fiction and technology. You
have to tend the truth because to you, Yeah, my mom's right,
called me out on this if it's not not accurate. But um so,
I guess the thing that was maybe um most significant from a philosophical standpoint was
that when I was about maybe twelve or thirteen, had somewhat of an existential
crisis where I was like, I was like, what what is the meaning
of life? Is life just meaningless? Why are we here? What does
it all mean? And and I read a lot of books on religion and
philosophy, and then ultimately, you know, I read this book, Hitchhiker's
Guides the Galaxy, which is great um and and in that book, that
book is really a philosophy book that disguised this humor. And the point that
Douglas Adams makes is that the real difficulties under standing what questions to ask about
the answer that is the universe, um and that we that that really we
want to we want to have. It's it's essentially it's like a philosophy of
curiosity, um of of saying, well, what can we do to find
out more about the nature of the universe and and the meaning of life?
And so that's that's the sort of foundational element. And then from there you
say, okay, well, if we want to find out meaning of life,
we have to expand the scope and scale of consciousness. We have to
got there and we explore the stars to know what questions to ask about the
universe and understand the universe. And that's that's my core philosophy um and and
and so from that it was like, well, we have to make sure
that Earth is good, so we have to have sustainable energy. Um Um,
we want to bold technology to travel beyond Earth. And that's that's it's
from that sort of core philosophy that these companies arise. In most cases.
UM, I can say, how does Twitter help with that? I would
like to go back to Earth sure, and to the various enterprises that you
contributed to create or co created or created. Let's start with PayPal. So
very impresed company. Do you regret to have sold it? I think in
retrospect, I think it was it was good that that the company was acquired
by eBay um because there was so much talent at PayPal, and that talent
subsequently went on to create many other companies. Um. So YouTube, for
example, was created by two people that worked at a paper UM we had.
There was LinkedIn was created from from PayPal, There was Yelled, There
was many other companies Russian. Yeah, you're very impression. Yeah so and
then and if if I'd been still working on PayPal, then there wouldn't be
you know, test that would not be in a card form and SpaceX wouldn't
exist. Yes, so yes, I guess A short, short answer yes,
yeah, short until you that yes yeah yeah, but now with then
you would have loved to keep it again. Well, there is I think,
um, the potential to do something that is, um um bigger than
PayPal. Um. This is sort of like the x the sort of everything
out kind of thing. So I think it's it's somewhat poetic trying to get
good, good, finish the task that was started about twenty four years ago.
Um, I think it's I think it's going to be useful. X
slash Twitter is going to be just a very useful thing, um and hopefully
something that is a positive force for civilization. Moving to Tesla, I have,
through one of our operations, don't the first advertising campaign for the electric
car of GM that was at the end of the nineties. So can you
explain why GM and other car manufacturers have not created Tesla and why Tesla is
successful? What is the difference? UM's about the e V one basically the
EV one car that so General Motors actually they've come out with this electric vehicle
one EV one and it's yes, you would remember the EV one, yes,
yeah, um, And actually so I thought when that yeah, that
sounds about right. Yeah, Um, I would have. I expected there
would be an EV two, EV three and so forth, and if if
they had done that, actually there would be no need for Tessa Um.
But um. For reasons that that aren't clear, they gm recalled all of
the ev ones, even from customers that really wanted to keep the cars.
They recalled the cars and they crushed them in a junkyard, and it blows,
It still blows in my mind that they did this because the people who
had the ev ones, they loved the car so much. They held a
candlelit vigil at the junk yard where the cars were crushed. Okay, like
it was like like someone was getting killed, you know, like it's and
it's like if somebody is holding a candle lit vigil for the because they love
your products so much, maybe you should make more of it, you know.
I mean, it's like pretty rare for candle at vigils to be help
for products. So I don't understand why they didn't do more, and they
should have and they would be the leader in electric pickles today, but they
didn't. They didn't, and so there was a need for Tesla because the
you know, at the time of starting Tesla, there were no electric vehicles
being made, and they were, so the big car companies were not making
electric pickles. There were no startups that we were aware of making electric pickles.
So it's like, well, we should try. And I mean in
the case of both Tesla and SpaceX, I thought the chance of success was
maybe ten percent. So I just felt like I thought it would be successful.
I thought it would fail. A goodnesson And now moving to the kids
dream, which is to become an astronaut and not to buid rockets. How
you move from the idea that every child has I would be anstronaut to I
would do reusable rockets. Yeah, you forgot No, I'm trying to compress
the story so that they're not too long because of the story is actually quite
long because I didn't start out wanting to the rockets. At first, I
was going to do this m philanthropic mission to Mars called Mars Oasis. And
then as I started investigating the what it would take to launch the submission to
Mars just a little greenhouse basically, UM it was intended to ins buy the
public, and I started understanding more about the what rockets could be used.
UM. I actually went to Russia a few times to UM try to buy
some of their nuclear missiles UM minus the nuclear minus the nuke. UM,
that's the extra UM. So that was pretty wild being in Russia in two
thousand and one negotiating to buy two of the biggest missiles UM. But but
but it became it became clear that the UM and unless there was something new
with rockets, there were that that that that was the fundamental issue. The
cost of access to space was the fundamental issue. So it wasn't it wasn't
a question of trying to increase the public's desire. Public's desire for space and
exploration is very high. But there needs to be a means, there needs
to be a way UM and uh, they need they need to be a
radical improvement in the cost of access to aubent UM. So I was like,
Okay, well I'm gonna try starting a rocket company and see if it's
successful. But I, like said I told people at the time, because
because the people would say to me, let's tell me this joke of like
what's the fast you know, what's what's the you know, how how do
you go from sorry? Um? So I'm getting a little hot into the
collar here. UM, I think a lot of people are um, so
they'll say, what's the fastest way to make us small fortune in the rocket
industry? In it? And the punchline is you start with a large one.
So you know it was it was a tough going for a while.
Our first three launches failed. Fortunately the fourth one succeeded. If the fourth
one had not succeeded, a SpaceX would not exist. So it was a
very close call. Fast forwards, you created or you co created Opening Eye.
Yes, chat GPT has been incredibly success, incredibly successful. It's the
fastest growing ever story. And after having created Opening Eye, suddenly you say,
oh, we should have a pose. Some people will say, oh,
it's because he has not done it. Well, I mean I didn't
think anyone would actually agree to the pause, but I thought, just for
the record, I just want to say I think we should pause. I
don't think that any Why do you want to shoot pose? Well, I
think there's a there's a real danger for digital superintelligence having negative consequences, and
so if we are I'm not careful with creating artificial general intelligence, we could
have potentially a catastrophic outcome. So now I think there's a range of possibilities.
I think the most likely outcome is positive for AI, but that's not
every possible outcome. So we need to minimize the probability that something will go
wrong with digital superintelligence. Yes, so I'm in favor of AI regulation because
I think advanced AI is a risk to the public, and anything that's a
risk to the public, there needs to be some kind of referee. That
referee is the regulator, and so I think that that my strong recommendation is
to have some regulation for AI. Some regulation for AI. Guess which is
what you want? Not sure regulation, I guess there's probably plenty of regulators.
Okay, So speaking about Twitter, you you have made a big bet
on Twitter. You said it a few minutes ago that you paid too much.
Yes, yes, and you are now going on to Twitter two point
two or three point two, which I understand. It's a full scale invention
of the company. Yeah, the company very rapidly. Yeah, the company
is changing quad dramatically. There are a lot of controversy about Twitter. So
I have, in fact three very quick questions. The first one is why
have you decided to acquire The second is what was wrong at Twitter to make
you acting? And the last one is then the last last of the suite,
because there are many or the question is, why do you believe that
you would be successful and you will be well? Thanks? Um, I
can't imagine. I can't imagine that you will not be well. Thanks UM.
So well. Obviously I was on Twitter as as a major user,
and even before the acquisition closed, my Twitter account was the most interacted with
account in the world. So my I guess I would be I'm pretty closely
attuned to what's going on with Twitter, you know. I get a feel
for how is it shifting one way or the other. And generally I was
concerned that Twitter was having a negative effect on civilization, that it was having
a corrosive effect on civil society, and and so that, you know,
anything that undermines civilization I think is not good. And you know, go
back to my point of like, we need to do everything possible to support
civilization and move it in a positive direction, and I felt that it would.
Twitter was kept moving more and more in a negative direction, and my
hope and aspiration was to change that and have it be a positive force for
civilization. It is not perceived like this. People are very happy to listen
to that approach that the perception is very different. Well, I think it
depends on I mean, I think if if somebody is a regular Twitter user,
I think that most people would say that their experience has improved. We've
we've gotten rid of ninety percent of the bots and the scams and and and
the various bad things that we're happening. We've gotten rid of now at this
point, I think ninety five percent of the child exploitation material that was on
Twitter, which was a shock to see the amount of that that was really
terrible. Some of that had been going on for ten years and no action.
So I think we've done a lot of good in that respect. And
and then I think we're you know, we've also done things like we have
open sourced the algorithm, so we're trying to be as transparent as possible.
So Twitter is the only social media company where you can see the actual code
of the algorithm, so it's not like some secret black bots. I mean,
the weightabild trust is the weightable trust does not take my word for it.
It's let's let's show you exactly how it works and full transparency and and
and we're also going to be showing like if your account is in any way
affected by the Twitter system, you could see it clearly. Um and just
you know, moving in I think a good direction. Um, we've I
think the recommendation album. I don't want to get on too long for Twitter,
but I think it's I think it's actually quite good and that those are
on the who are on the Twitter system, I think generally think it's good.
Um. The you know, we are seeing all time highs in usage,
so at least you know, for the public out there, they are
using the system more. Um so we're seeing your pretty significant week over week
growth in usage. Um. So you know, the public is speaking with
their time and if they're if they're putting their time on Twitter, that's a
very good signal. Um. So that's that's that's very positive. Um.
What would you say to advertisers who left Twitter to convince them to come back?
Yeah, I actually I should say that. Um maybe with a few
exceptions, almost all the advertisers have said that they've either come back or they
said they will come back. So actually I feel pretty pretty optimistic about the
future. UM. And yeah, so you know, we really at this
point, I believe actually I'm not aware of any advertiser. That is either
they've either come back or they said they will come back. I'm not aware
of any exceptions. They're probably a few exceptions, but overall, I think
it's it's very possible. Good. So what we have now a broader conversation.
We will ask Chris Demand from Orange SiO of Orange to join us,
as well as onto Ainao from AVMA. Why Millard while they are ranging,
there is uh maybe yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
There is one question yeah that I would like to take care. So
finally we are all together again. So uh, I had another question,
but I will save it for later and I will give the floor to Crystal.
Crystal the man with the CEO of Orange, and she is very much
excited about putting some harsh, difficult question to you. Let's go social network
Twitter. Yeah, obviously social networks and Twitter a fantastic to develop debates that
maybe we'll look possible. Now there's also another of it, which is that
there can be some disinformation. Thank news, Thank News. What that's crazy.
I don't believe we need that. How do I know this is real?
But now at young people and being in the digital field, and we
provide digital services, that people use. There's also moved towards cyber bullying and
harassment, which I think we all it's also a road to educate young people
on how to use the technology and make sure that because some behaviors I mean
on Twitter or other social nitias can actually have devastating hippics on people his Twitter,
doing something about it? Or would you be willing to engage with other
players? Actually an orange, we do a lot in that space. I
mean, that's true. I think I think you know, Twitter is for
sure willing to engage with others. Um And, as I said, the
overarching goal is to have Twitter be a force, a positive force for civilization.
And um, you know, so and and and and if you're on
the platform and you're being harassed or bullied or whatever, obviously that's a negative
experience. Um so, Um, so you know what we're doing is it's
we call it sort of freedom of speech but not freedom of reach, which
is that if you yes, you can say offensive things, but then your
content is going to get downrated. So if you're a jerk, your your
richual drop. So yeah, I think that's the right thing. And also,
and I don't know if you will be competing with gar to launch the
future fragrance forms and the Brian mask, so you have to compete very hard.
But maybe you know I know that you had already the launch, but
there is never the DJL, so you can put your question all right.
Um, first of all, in the name of the thank you very much
for being here. Is a co host of your attacked and it's it's great
to have you unwelcome, all right, So change of subjects from Twitter.
Um. At LVMH, our oldest mission is called Claude lambre I saw you
enjoyed good wine? Yeah? Um, it's six hundred and fifty years old.
Wow. Lui Viton was founded in eighteen fifty four. Our most ancient
American missle, Tiffany, was founded in eighteen thirty seven. The sum of
the years of existence of all our misson at LVMH is eight thousand, three
hundred and ninety three years old. Wow. Testinize a teenager, right,
yeah, nineteen nineteen years old and its market cap is already higher than LMH.
So it's a question of age. Yeah. First question, first question,
how much longer are you going to make us look so bad? A
second question, more serious, do you feel the creation of value is more
challenging in traditional or innovative business. Well, first of all, it's honored
to be here and speak with you, so thanks for having me. You
know, evaluations are our strange thing because you know, sometimes I've said,
hey, I think the stock price is too high. It tells that,
and then the stock price goes up. I'm like, okay, um,
so if you eat, you tweet easy going up down? No the crazy
thing. I mean when I've treated I think the stock price is too high,
almost always it goes up. So I don't know, it's it's racing.
So I guess in the case, it tells if the the really the
value of the company is primarily on the basis of autonomy. So in my
opinion, um, because if you look at our total vehicle output, it's,
um, you know, it'll be almost two million vehicles this year or
something like that. Um. But that's that's still only two percent of total
vehicle production. So then why is our market cap so high? And it's
because the potential for autonomy. Um? Is that the value of autonomy it's
so high, UM that even even if you have a discount of percentage probability
of autonomy happening that is still incredibly valuable. So the average passenger car is
used only about ten hours a week, so an average about one and a
half hours a day. But if you have an autonomous robotaxi, the utility
might be fifty or sixty hours a week out of one hundred and sixty eight
hours. So now you've got a vehicle that costs the same but has five
times the utility. So it's so gigantic a change that that's really i think
the main driver of our value. And although I've said this before, I
think we will solve autonomy soon. Did you expect that the Tesla will be
at this level of market gap? No, I did not expect t would
be at this level of marketa because you get your extraordinary and fair either way.
I mean, I don't set the price, so you don't said maybe
just another quick question. I tried mid Journey the other day. Journey Journey
is amazing, right, and I asked the software to make it. If
you don't advertising campaign with only two words, So here it's a bad question
for you movie right if you if you want to put me out of a
job. That was my question. Do you feel this advertising production industry is
going to be threatened by AI. Be careful, not at all. It's
totally safe. I mean, AI is definitely going to be a massive disruptive
force. I mean, AI is probably the most disruptive technology ever. I
mean. The crazy thing is that, you know, the the advantage that
humans have is that we're smarter than other creatures. Like if we got into
a fight with a gorilla, the gorilla would define would be one. But
we're smart. So but now, for the first time, there's going to
be something that is smarter than the smartest human, like way smarter than the
smartest human. And as you can see from a journey, the art that
AI can create is incredible. It's so beautiful and it does it, you
know, within seconds. So we're at I mean, I think, you
know, there's that sort of saying, may you live in interesting times,
which I think is like not exactly a good thing sometimes, but it would
we actually live. I think we live in the most interesting of times the
advent of AI. And I actually thought to myself at one point like should
you know I would I really want to be alive at this point, like
let's say that there is some AI Onlmageddon that happens some sort of AI apocalypse.
I think I would still be want to be alive at this time to
see it and hopefully, you know, hopefully not not create cause it.
Um. But it's it's just a I think we live in an extremely interesting
time, you know, because the things that you see AI being able to
do now, it's going to do much more with each passing year. Um.
Cars will absolutely drive themselves better than any person could drive. Um,
we'll have humanoid robots. Um Like so tess Us developing a humanoid robot um
you call it the T eight hundred. It's uh, yeah, some people
will get that drug. Um it's a terminator um. So that yeah.
Um. But but if if you if you like, say, what isn't
it what is an economy? An economy is gdpoper capita times capita. Now
what happens if you don't actually have a limit on capita, if you if
you have an unlimited number of uh sort of people or robots. Um,
It's it's not clear what meaning an economy has at that point because you have
an unlimited economy effectively um so so like on the good side of the plus
side of AI, is that I think we are heading for an age of
abundance where any goods and services that you want you can just have um.
So that's the that's the that's the the positive side of of of AI futures
and age of abundance from the advance side inside, they say that we are
using AI sis many years and it is helping us a great deal. And
this tool that we are already using and they think it would be helping us
to do even faster some very good ad It will be probably long time before
they replace the creative minds a Smitha. Maybe you have an opinion on that,
and maybe you can Asmitha is the CDEO of loyal and she knows a
lot about digital, so maybe you can tell us a little bit about advertising
and AI and put your question to Elan. Yeah, so I'll pick up
from advertising and from what you said before about Twitter. So now we know
that Twitter is expensive and we know that it aims to have free speech.
The question I have is about winning the advertiser's trust to be a preferred social
media platform in the current context where the expected revenue you know, in twenty
twenty three is lower than twenty twenty two, you have brought in new leadership,
Linda, So I wanted to know that how will we win that trust?
And will Linda have the time, the support, the freedom because she's
an advertising expert, so will she be able to manage the situation and how?
Yeah, I think I think Linda is great. Um So, I
think Linda is going to do amazing things for core Twitter. UM and obviously
understands where advertisers are coming from, very deeply understands the concerns that advertisers have,
and I think we'll do a great job in addressing those concerns. Um.
You know, A key part is um you know, say like,
if you're an advertiser, what content do you want to appear next to?
And depending upon what advertiser, you know, the sensitivity of the brand.
Um. If you're, for example, say Disney and you're advertising a children's
movie, then you want to have you know, all ages content you know.
Um and by the way, Disney is one of our biggest advertisers,
so um so so. So it's really just making sure that the content adjacentcy
matches what a brand has come POWs and then in some cases where the content
is like you know, there's not going to be any advertising because nobody wants
to advertise next to it, and that's going to be some of the more
controversial stuff. Um yeah, follow up on that, you know, because
we were talking about content. You have just made the announcement that there will
be ad revenue sharing for creatures. Yes, yeah, and that has a
condition. It will be done when they are verified Bluetic creators and the advertising
is to verified blue ting users. Yes. Now, if with that,
how how does that impact your focus on subscription revenues because to be blue Tage,
you know, there's a subscription versus advertising revenues focus. To find out

part of like when you say, like, say, how many impressions does
something get? You say like, well, were those impressions real or not
real? You know, was it you know, a computer just running one
hundred thousand fake accounts, Because that obviously doesn't count because the computer is not
going to buy anything. So that's why our focus is on on verified users,
because we are admittedly conflating verification and subscription at Twitter. So you could
see like verified subscriber or something like that. That's not it's not possible to
game that. So you know it's real, you know it's solid, and
you know it's not a computer. So that's why it's that that's why we're
focused on that is to ensure the authenticity of the views and that it really
that real people are seeing what's going on. I mean, the sheer amount
of bot and scam and spam activity and social media is insane um. And
we're talking about AI. It's very obvious that, especially with today's AI,
the computers can pass every like are you a human test? In fact,
I think they can pass all your human tests better than a human, you
know, sort off you say, like identify a traffic light or something like
that. Okay, let me tell you Tessa can identify a traffic light.
So if we're you know, and but even like open source AI stuff right
now can pass all of the human tests. So you have to have something
that there's better authentication than that. Yeah. Yeah, I think that contridence
and trust is something which we lose fast and that we regain slowly. I
have no adapt personally that Twitter will gain back to trust provided that you do
the right thing, and I'm sure that you will do the right thing.
So it is something which is probably just a hica into time, but you
need to do the writing, and I'm sure that you will do it.
I have two small questions, one which is regarding Ukraine. You have helped
enormously Ukraine at the beginning with starlings, and I think we owe you a
lot because without access access through internet and without access to communication, the war
would have been finished. What is your take on that experience? Yeah,
that was I mean that whole situation was very complex. Um, no kidding,
Yeah, it's really really complex. Um. Um. As you out,
Starlink did play play a provo pivotal role um because Russia had actually taken
out all of the satellite communications and all of the ground communications except for Starlink
was the only one that was still operating. Um and even today it is
still the only one that is effective at the front lines. And Starlink today
is the backbone of the Ukrainian military communications. UM. So you know,
I thought it was important to help out um. And but I but I
do, I do hope for some kind of resolution soon because I think it's
it's it's terribly sad that that's the flower of the youth of Ukraine and Russia
who don't want to be there. Um, that they're dying in trenches right
now, and I sure hope we can figure out some means to peace soon.
The last question is going back to this crown. You have a lot
of startupers, You have a lot of young people who want to be successful.
What are the two or three pieces of advice that you would give them?
Well, you have a question over there? Yes, uh, do
we have a microphone? Because alone has accepted to take question from the floor,
shout out a microphone, an, I go, you have the mic?
You go, yes, I don't know why you got the mic,
but please go right. Question companies projects, short question. Companies a lot
better on Mars. It's really hard to make a feedback on Mars. It's
easier election. Yeah yeah, I mean, um, okay, yeah,
give them my mike. Yeah yeah, I mean me and Mars should get
a room. Basically, I love Mars. Okay mm hmm no, no,
no, no, now I want that you gave the mike. Sorry,
guys, uh was there? Okay, sorry, what's the question?
What's is the question? My name is NAO co founder and CEO at click
Out. We make ai tiny so tast lies one of our targets. We
love to work with you all. H and my husband is actually extra movie
line. Who currently the infrastructure on MS? Okay? Okay? Sure?
Oh oh okay, one last question? Yeah whatever, yeah, okay,
however long you want to do it? Now? Yeah? Totally crazy at
ze yeah, um structure? Sure that's great. So well, I think
I think you'd want to have a very good mental health on a trip to
Mars. Uh. Make sure everyone's sane, because you don't want someone opening
at the airlock in the middle of the night. Um. So, I
think sanity is very important. Uh, if you're going to Mars, don't
you plum me at home? Plum me at home? Now? I thought,
they don't you pending me co cups? Don't you pining me? I
thought, but please, We're just gonna descend into chaos. Uh, I
just take it, okay, you would get okay? How is he?
Okay? Okay, thank you, Sir Nathaniel at command from Okay, I
think we're gonna just it's gonna be chaos, can you hear me? I
thought the public laz Hey, great, T shirt. So you talked about
the European Regulation ELAN, and you know that there have been many amendments due
to LM deployment. Do you think how can we integrate to use an actual
use of this LEM in a non controlled way in the current discussion? Can
you make atlation? Thank you? You're asking about LM us Okay just a
second, no, please, I will answer the question. It wasn't about
safety, safety and LMS or so I didn't hear the whole question. It's
like safe application of LMS or what is it? The regulation at the rogan
level was conceived when we do not talk about LLS. So what would you
integrate in the current reiation level to integrates the l and okay and and protect
from the use okay each sure, okay, when the regulation has been created,
LLM didn't exist. So what would be your suggestion regarding regulating LMS.
Well, I think more broadly, UM there should be UM regulatory insight into
LMS and really any other form of AI. I mean there's I'm not sure.
I don't think lms are the ultimate UM form of AI. UM I
mean the sort of an inside joke on AI of like, who do you
think will be the American president in twenty thirty two? Diffusion or transformers.
There's an inside jokes, but yeah, it's like what does that mean?
Um? But that like might be a real It might be real. UM.
So yeah, so we'll have just the two latest question one here and
one in that way journey, So go ahead, see it off. I
mean now if we don't listen to the question, will we not be able
to continue? Well? Every every year? My question is what present young
people focus on? UM? Sure? Uh, well, I think generally,
I think it's important to focus on something ahead. Sorry, I think,
UM, you want to focus on something that you are personally passionate about,
that you personally care about. UM. It's very hard to be motivated
for a product that you don't really feel strongly about. UM. And it
doesn't have to be high tech. It could be in any in any field.
It's just it's got to be a product that you feel is really needs
to be there. That that and and something that you personally love UM.
And I would listen to your instincts on on you know, do you do
you love this product or service? Um? Because it's it's kind of impossible
to know what do other people love. But if you love it, that's
a good sign, um and um. And that could that could be small
to large any kind of any field. It's it's just not be have to
be high tech. But if you don't love, if you if you don't
really love the product that you're making, if you can't like, a good
test would be that you can't wait for this product to be on the market.
And if that's the case, you're you're going in the right direction.
Great. Uh. Now the last question we have uh, we have a
French I don't know, we have a French say which is you're now and
now i'd get that wait wait no, now you you now? The kids?
I know it's if I've moved you get that post to post? No,
no to post. And he's very excited. When will when on pain
that peopill be able to start testing in our Victoria? Sure well, um,
certain, senor link is um. First of all, I want to
shore everyone if you may be worried about neural link that um you will see.
Uh. Neural link is going to be a fairly slow process because anything
that's done in humans it's very slow. So sometimes people think that this suddenly
we're gonna be chipping out one's head and then before they know it, everyone's
connected to the internet, and then we're trouble with your brain. So it's
going to happen very slowly. Hopefully later this year, we'll do our first
human device implantation, and this will be for someone that has sort of tetraplegic
quadriplegic, does not have has lost their connection from their their brain to their
body m and we think we should be able to that person will be able
to communicate as fast as someone who has a fully functional body. So that's
going to be a big deal. And we and we see a path beyond
that to actually transfer the signals from the motor cortex of the brain to pass
the injury in the spinal cord and actually enable someone's body to be used to
gain so essentially shunting the signals past the broken point and restore potentially full full
body used to someone that has completely lost the connection. And I mean you
can imagine like if say Stephen Hawking were live today, what a profound change
that would be. Um and UM. So that's our first application and uh,
if it's looking like that, the first case will be later this year.
So yeah, fantastic. Now I would die a very very warm rows
of a flows to a match, so that sounds good, all right,
any no, okay, thank you, thank you, thank You's wanna say,
you guys are great? You guys are I mean, it's it's so
inspiring to see so much energy and so much positive energy in the room.
So uh, this is a very aspiring for the future. Thank you,
thank you, Okay, thank you. To find out more or to purchase
