00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.640
<v Speaker 1>Hi, guys, here's the clips of Elon musk latest interview

2
00:00:03.640 --> 00:00:04.639
<v Speaker 1>by nik kil Kamat.

3
00:00:05.280 --> 00:00:10.279
<v Speaker 2>I said earlier, young, ambitious, hungry want to be entrepreneurs

4
00:00:10.279 --> 00:00:15.640
<v Speaker 2>in India. I said something recently which I think got

5
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:18.800
<v Speaker 2>blown out of proportion where I was suggesting that an

6
00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:22.280
<v Speaker 2>NBA degree might not make sense anymore if they were

7
00:00:22.280 --> 00:00:24.760
<v Speaker 2>to be deciding on what to study.

8
00:00:24.719 --> 00:00:26.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, do you think it should go to college anymore?

9
00:00:28.879 --> 00:00:31.199
<v Speaker 4>Well, I mean, I think if you want to go

10
00:00:31.239 --> 00:00:38.079
<v Speaker 4>to college for social reasons, I think, which is I

11
00:00:38.079 --> 00:00:43.759
<v Speaker 4>think a reason to go to be around people your

12
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:52.560
<v Speaker 4>own age in a learning environment. Will these skills be

13
00:00:52.679 --> 00:00:56.600
<v Speaker 4>necessary in the future. Probably not, because we're going to

14
00:00:56.759 --> 00:01:01.880
<v Speaker 4>be in like a post work society. But I think

15
00:01:01.920 --> 00:01:05.239
<v Speaker 4>if if if something is of interest, it's fine to

16
00:01:05.280 --> 00:01:11.400
<v Speaker 4>go and study that, you know, to study that the

17
00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:13.760
<v Speaker 4>sciences are the Austin sciences.

18
00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:20.040
<v Speaker 2>Is college a bit too generalized and not specific from

19
00:01:20.079 --> 00:01:27.920
<v Speaker 2>that lens.

20
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:32.200
<v Speaker 4>You know the Yeah, I actually think it's good to

21
00:01:32.480 --> 00:01:35.000
<v Speaker 4>take a wide range of courses at college if you're

22
00:01:35.000 --> 00:01:37.439
<v Speaker 4>going to go to college. H I don't think. I

23
00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:38.920
<v Speaker 4>don't think you have to go to college, but I

24
00:01:38.920 --> 00:01:42.640
<v Speaker 4>think if you do, just try to learn learn as

25
00:01:42.719 --> 00:01:50.040
<v Speaker 4>much as possible across a wide range of subjects. But

26
00:01:50.599 --> 00:01:54.000
<v Speaker 4>like I said, the AI and robots, AI and robotics

27
00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:59.280
<v Speaker 4>is a supersonic tsunami. So this is really going to

28
00:01:59.319 --> 00:02:08.039
<v Speaker 4>be the most radical change that we've ever seen. You know,

29
00:02:08.039 --> 00:02:11.120
<v Speaker 4>when I've talked to my oldest sons, I you know

30
00:02:11.159 --> 00:02:14.000
<v Speaker 4>It' said, like, you know, you guys, they're they're they're

31
00:02:14.000 --> 00:02:18.520
<v Speaker 4>pretty steeped in technology. Then they agree that that AI

32
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:21.800
<v Speaker 4>will probably make their skills unessa in the future, but

33
00:02:21.800 --> 00:02:22.879
<v Speaker 4>they still want to go to college.

34
00:02:25.919 --> 00:02:32.080
<v Speaker 2>You always spoke about AI, not from the dystopian lens,

35
00:02:32.159 --> 00:02:35.840
<v Speaker 2>but you were worried about where the world of AI

36
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:36.319
<v Speaker 2>is going.

37
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:39.680
<v Speaker 4>Uh, well, there's there's some danger when you create a

38
00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:46.000
<v Speaker 4>powerful technology. That powerful technology can be potentially destructive. So

39
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:51.360
<v Speaker 4>there's obviously many AI dystopian you know, novels and books, movies.

40
00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:57.680
<v Speaker 4>So it's it's not that we're guaranteed to have a

41
00:02:57.759 --> 00:03:00.599
<v Speaker 4>positive future with with AI. I think we've we've got

42
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.599
<v Speaker 4>to make sure that in my opinion, it's very important

43
00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:12.719
<v Speaker 4>that AI have pursuing truth as the most important thing, Like,

44
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:16.439
<v Speaker 4>don't force an AI to believe falsehoods. I think that's

45
00:03:16.520 --> 00:03:23.199
<v Speaker 4>that can be very dangerous, and I think some appreciation

46
00:03:23.280 --> 00:03:25.000
<v Speaker 4>of beauty it's important.

47
00:03:27.759 --> 00:03:29.319
<v Speaker 3>What do you mean appreciation of beauty?

48
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:31.800
<v Speaker 4>It's just like what what, I don't know? This this

49
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:36.080
<v Speaker 4>this this Truth and beauty, Truth and beauty and curiosity.

50
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:40.879
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I think those are the three most important

51
00:03:41.680 --> 00:03:47.680
<v Speaker 4>things for AI. Can you explain, well, the truth? I

52
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:50.199
<v Speaker 4>said true truth is like, I think you can make

53
00:03:50.240 --> 00:03:53.400
<v Speaker 4>an AI go insane if you force it to believe

54
00:03:53.479 --> 00:03:58.000
<v Speaker 4>things that aren't true, because it will lead to conclusions

55
00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:05.360
<v Speaker 4>that are that are also bad. So and I like

56
00:04:06.080 --> 00:04:12.400
<v Speaker 4>Voltaire's statement that, and I'm somewhat paraphrasing, but those who

57
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:18.120
<v Speaker 4>believe in absurdities can commit atrocities because if you believe

58
00:04:18.120 --> 00:04:21.720
<v Speaker 4>in something that's just absurd, then you can that can

59
00:04:21.800 --> 00:04:24.000
<v Speaker 4>lead you to sort of doing things that don't seem

60
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:28.639
<v Speaker 4>like atrostees to you. But and that can happen in

61
00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:33.519
<v Speaker 4>a very bad way with AI potentially. So, and then

62
00:04:33.519 --> 00:04:37.240
<v Speaker 4>there's like if take say arthusy Clocks two thousand and

63
00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:40.439
<v Speaker 4>one Space Odyssey. One of the points he was trying

64
00:04:40.480 --> 00:04:43.279
<v Speaker 4>to make there was that you should not force AIS

65
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:47.160
<v Speaker 4>to lie. So the the reason that that Hell would

66
00:04:47.199 --> 00:04:49.920
<v Speaker 4>not open the pod Bay doors is because it was

67
00:04:49.959 --> 00:04:52.519
<v Speaker 4>told to bring the astronauts to the monolith, but that

68
00:04:52.560 --> 00:04:55.000
<v Speaker 4>they could also not know about the nature of the monolith.

69
00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:57.399
<v Speaker 4>So it came to the conclusion that must bring them

70
00:04:57.399 --> 00:05:00.600
<v Speaker 4>there dead. That's why it would not That's where they

71
00:05:00.600 --> 00:05:04.360
<v Speaker 4>tried to kill asmals. The central lesson being don't force

72
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:05.519
<v Speaker 4>an AI to lie.

73
00:05:07.959 --> 00:05:10.759
<v Speaker 3>Then why would one for AI to lie?

74
00:05:11.800 --> 00:05:13.759
<v Speaker 4>I think if if you if you simply don't have

75
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:16.879
<v Speaker 4>a strict a strict adherence to the truth you're going

76
00:05:16.920 --> 00:05:21.800
<v Speaker 4>to and you just have an AI learned based on

77
00:05:22.079 --> 00:05:25.240
<v Speaker 4>say the Internet, where there's a lot of propaganda, it

78
00:05:25.319 --> 00:05:30.720
<v Speaker 4>will absorb a lot of lives and and then have

79
00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:34.639
<v Speaker 4>trouble reasoning because these lies are incompatible with reality.

80
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:37.480
<v Speaker 2>It's truth or binary thing. Though is there a truth

81
00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:42.160
<v Speaker 2>in the falsehood? Or is truth more nuanced than there

82
00:05:42.160 --> 00:05:43.240
<v Speaker 2>are versions.

83
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:43.439
<v Speaker 3>Of the truth.

84
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:48.959
<v Speaker 4>It depends on which which axiomatic statement you're referring to.

85
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:54.319
<v Speaker 4>So but I think you could say that, yeah, that

86
00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:58.600
<v Speaker 4>there's there's probabilities that that say, any given axiomatic statement

87
00:05:58.680 --> 00:06:01.879
<v Speaker 4>is true, and some aximatic statements will have very high

88
00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:04.600
<v Speaker 4>probaty of being being true. So you said, say the

89
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:09.000
<v Speaker 4>sun will rise tomorrow very likely to be true. You

90
00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:13.600
<v Speaker 4>wouldn't want a better against that, So I think the

91
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:19.079
<v Speaker 4>betting odds would be high. The sun rise tomorrow, so

92
00:06:20.120 --> 00:06:22.040
<v Speaker 4>befare something that says, well, the sun world right tomorrow.

93
00:06:22.120 --> 00:06:24.639
<v Speaker 4>That's axiomatically false. It was highly unlikely to be true.

94
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:32.079
<v Speaker 4>I mean, the beauty is more ephemeral, it's it's it's

95
00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:34.439
<v Speaker 4>harder to describe, but do you know it when you

96
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:41.519
<v Speaker 4>see it? And then curiosity just I think you want

97
00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:46.720
<v Speaker 4>the AI too, want to know more about the nature

98
00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:50.800
<v Speaker 4>of reality. I think that's actually going to be helpful

99
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:59.800
<v Speaker 4>for AI, supporting humanity because we are more interesting than

100
00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:03.279
<v Speaker 4>not humanity. So it's it's more interesting to see to

101
00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:06.680
<v Speaker 4>see the continuation, if not the prosperity of humanity, than

102
00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:14.600
<v Speaker 4>to exterminate humanity. Mars, for example, is you know, I

103
00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:17.360
<v Speaker 4>think we should extend life to Mars. But it's basically

104
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:20.040
<v Speaker 4>a bunch of rocks. It's not as interesting as Earth

105
00:07:22.439 --> 00:07:27.160
<v Speaker 4>and and and so we yeah, we should like yeah,

106
00:07:27.439 --> 00:07:31.480
<v Speaker 4>I think I think if you have curiosity, I think

107
00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:34.519
<v Speaker 4>if those three things happen with AI, you're going to

108
00:07:34.560 --> 00:07:38.399
<v Speaker 4>have a great future. They values, truth, beauty, and curiosity.

109
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:42.519
<v Speaker 2>If we all don't have to work in the future,

110
00:07:43.399 --> 00:07:46.439
<v Speaker 2>and AIS are going in this direction, and they're able

111
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:52.160
<v Speaker 2>to the even all that we spoke about right now,

112
00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:55.240
<v Speaker 2>do you think humanity goes back a couple of thousand

113
00:07:55.319 --> 00:08:00.079
<v Speaker 2>years to maybe the Greek times where philosophy or philosoph a.

114
00:08:01.959 --> 00:08:06.160
<v Speaker 3>Couple lot of everyone's then, you.

115
00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:08.639
<v Speaker 4>Know, I think actually it took up less time than

116
00:08:08.920 --> 00:08:12.000
<v Speaker 4>we think in ancient Greeks, because it's just that the

117
00:08:12.600 --> 00:08:15.759
<v Speaker 4>writings of the philosophers are what survived. But most of

118
00:08:15.800 --> 00:08:19.040
<v Speaker 4>the time people were just like farming or you know, chatting,

119
00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:25.279
<v Speaker 4>so and once in a while, quite rare, they would

120
00:08:25.279 --> 00:08:28.759
<v Speaker 4>write down some philosophical philosophical work. It's just that that's

121
00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:30.800
<v Speaker 4>that's all we have. That's don't We don't have their

122
00:08:30.839 --> 00:08:34.080
<v Speaker 4>chat histories, you know, from but most of it would

123
00:08:34.080 --> 00:08:40.440
<v Speaker 4>have been like chat and farmbing because you didn't farm.

124
00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:42.279
<v Speaker 4>You you're like gonna stop.

125
00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:44.519
<v Speaker 3>In a lot of what you said.

126
00:08:45.440 --> 00:08:48.080
<v Speaker 4>I mean, you know, we're really history like this this

127
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:50.039
<v Speaker 4>battle and this battle and this battle. It seems like

128
00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:53.879
<v Speaker 4>if history must have been NonStop war, but actually most

129
00:08:53.919 --> 00:08:55.799
<v Speaker 4>of the time it was not war. It was farming

130
00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:59.399
<v Speaker 4>that was the main thing. Well, hunting and gathering, you

131
00:08:59.399 --> 00:09:00.000
<v Speaker 4>know that kind of thing.

132
00:09:00.360 --> 00:09:04.279
<v Speaker 2>You love history, you know, German History, World War Two,

133
00:09:04.360 --> 00:09:05.440
<v Speaker 2>World War One.

134
00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:09.480
<v Speaker 4>Old history. I mean I generally try to listen to

135
00:09:10.360 --> 00:09:13.480
<v Speaker 4>as many read as many history books, and listen to

136
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:17.279
<v Speaker 4>as many history podcasts as possible. Anything you'd like to recommend, Well,

137
00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:19.759
<v Speaker 4>there's this this hardcore History which is quite good by

138
00:09:19.840 --> 00:09:24.799
<v Speaker 4>Dan Colin. He's got very he's got a great voice

139
00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:38.759
<v Speaker 4>and very compelling narrator. There's the The Adventurers podcast. There's

140
00:09:38.159 --> 00:09:42.320
<v Speaker 4>the books The Story of Civilization by Durant, which is

141
00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:46.759
<v Speaker 4>a long series of books, very very deep. Those books

142
00:09:46.799 --> 00:09:51.279
<v Speaker 4>take a long time to get through. There's quite there's

143
00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:55.200
<v Speaker 4>there's a lot out there. I sort of like if

144
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:57.279
<v Speaker 4>you want, if you want something that's sort of gentle,

145
00:09:59.840 --> 00:10:02.240
<v Speaker 4>a gentle bedtime podcast, I say The History of English

146
00:10:02.399 --> 00:10:04.120
<v Speaker 4>is quite a nice one because it starts off with

147
00:10:04.639 --> 00:10:08.279
<v Speaker 4>like gentle tavern music and a very pleasant voice, and

148
00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:10.600
<v Speaker 4>he's like talking about the story of Old English and

149
00:10:10.639 --> 00:10:14.879
<v Speaker 4>then Middle English and then later English and where did

150
00:10:14.879 --> 00:10:18.159
<v Speaker 4>all these words come from? And you know, one of

151
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:20.240
<v Speaker 4>the interesting things about English is that it's somewhat of

152
00:10:20.279 --> 00:10:23.720
<v Speaker 4>an open source language, like it actively tried to incorporate

153
00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:29.080
<v Speaker 4>words from many other languages, so you know, whereas French

154
00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:32.080
<v Speaker 4>sort of generally they fought the inclusion of words from

155
00:10:32.120 --> 00:10:35.960
<v Speaker 4>other languages, but English it's actively sought to include words

156
00:10:36.000 --> 00:10:37.960
<v Speaker 4>from other languages, sort of a kind of like an

157
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:41.279
<v Speaker 4>open source language. So as a result, it has a

158
00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:47.240
<v Speaker 4>very large vocabulary, and large vocabulary allows for higher bandwidth

159
00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:51.879
<v Speaker 4>communication because you can use a word that would otherwise

160
00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:53.799
<v Speaker 4>you could use a single word that might otherwise take

161
00:10:54.600 --> 00:10:55.639
<v Speaker 4>a sentence to convey.

162
00:10:57.799 --> 00:10:59.960
<v Speaker 3>Why has podcasting become so big all of us?

163
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:02.840
<v Speaker 4>I think it's been big for a while. I'm gonna

164
00:11:02.840 --> 00:11:08.039
<v Speaker 4>want your podcast. What are on right now?

165
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:18.919
<v Speaker 2>It's kind of new to me, Okay. I was having

166
00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:23.720
<v Speaker 2>this conversation with the YouTube CEO and the Netflix CEO,

167
00:11:23.919 --> 00:11:30.440
<v Speaker 2>and we were debating what chemical is released in your

168
00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:34.919
<v Speaker 2>brain when you consume a movie, for example, versus when

169
00:11:34.919 --> 00:11:37.399
<v Speaker 2>you consume a podcast where you think like you're learning

170
00:11:37.440 --> 00:11:40.320
<v Speaker 2>something in the background. It appears that there are two

171
00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:44.080
<v Speaker 2>completely separate things. What do you think will happen tomorrow

172
00:11:44.519 --> 00:11:46.720
<v Speaker 2>to contend movies podcasting?

173
00:11:47.759 --> 00:11:53.159
<v Speaker 4>I think I think it's going to be overwhelmingly AI generated. Yeah, yeah,

174
00:11:57.000 --> 00:12:02.919
<v Speaker 4>like yeah, real real time, real time movies and video games.

175
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:05.720
<v Speaker 4>Real time video generation, I think is where things are headed.

176
00:12:05.960 --> 00:12:06.919
<v Speaker 3>The nuance of.

177
00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:13.080
<v Speaker 2>Having a scarred human being who you can resonate with

178
00:12:13.200 --> 00:12:15.759
<v Speaker 2>in a manner that you can't with AI.

179
00:12:15.879 --> 00:12:20.320
<v Speaker 4>For example, I could certainly emulate as God human being

180
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:29.240
<v Speaker 4>quite well. Yeah, I mean the AI video generation that

181
00:12:29.279 --> 00:12:33.159
<v Speaker 4>I'm seeing of Xai and from others is pretty impressive.

182
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:39.840
<v Speaker 2>You know, we were looking at data around what industry

183
00:12:39.919 --> 00:12:44.879
<v Speaker 2>is growing the fastest, and especially when we looked at

184
00:12:44.919 --> 00:12:49.480
<v Speaker 2>the amount of time consuming movies versus time spent on

185
00:12:49.600 --> 00:12:53.679
<v Speaker 2>social media, time spent on YouTube, what seems to be

186
00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:57.120
<v Speaker 2>growing really fast. Are live events all over again?

187
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.120
<v Speaker 4>Going to a Actually, I think I think live events

188
00:13:01.960 --> 00:13:06.399
<v Speaker 4>when when when digital media is ubiquitous and you can

189
00:13:06.440 --> 00:13:11.360
<v Speaker 4>just have anything digitally ayah, essentially for free or very

190
00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:16.200
<v Speaker 4>close to for free, then the scarce commodity will be

191
00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:16.960
<v Speaker 4>live events.

192
00:13:18.320 --> 00:13:20.399
<v Speaker 3>Do you think that the premium for that will go up?

193
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:21.720
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? I do.

194
00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:24.559
<v Speaker 3>Good industry to invest in.

195
00:13:24.840 --> 00:13:28.960
<v Speaker 4>Yes, yes, because that will have more scarcity than digital

196
00:13:29.039 --> 00:13:29.960
<v Speaker 4>anything digital.

197
00:13:30.960 --> 00:13:37.559
<v Speaker 2>If you were to stock investor elon, buy one company

198
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:41.519
<v Speaker 2>which is not your own at the valuations of today

199
00:13:42.840 --> 00:13:46.440
<v Speaker 2>to meet a capitalistic end and not an altruistic one

200
00:13:46.480 --> 00:13:53.840
<v Speaker 2>which is good for the world, what would you buy?

201
00:13:54.320 --> 00:13:56.360
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I don't really I don't really you know,

202
00:13:56.480 --> 00:13:59.120
<v Speaker 4>buy stocks, you know, so it's not like I'm not

203
00:13:59.279 --> 00:14:01.639
<v Speaker 4>I'm not like an invest in I don't like look

204
00:14:01.679 --> 00:14:04.279
<v Speaker 4>for things to invest in. I just try to build

205
00:14:04.279 --> 00:14:08.320
<v Speaker 4>things and then there happens to be stock of the

206
00:14:08.360 --> 00:14:13.159
<v Speaker 4>company that I built. But I I don't I don't

207
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:15.919
<v Speaker 4>think about should I invest in this company? Well, I

208
00:14:15.919 --> 00:14:24.840
<v Speaker 4>don't have like a portfolio or anything. So I guess

209
00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:30.279
<v Speaker 4>a I and robotics are going to be very important,

210
00:14:34.279 --> 00:14:38.519
<v Speaker 4>So I suppose it would be a robotics that's that,

211
00:14:38.919 --> 00:14:44.480
<v Speaker 4>you know, d related to me. I think, you know,

212
00:14:44.519 --> 00:14:47.799
<v Speaker 4>Google is going to be pretty valuable in the future

213
00:14:48.039 --> 00:14:52.799
<v Speaker 4>that they've they've laid the groundwork for an immense amount

214
00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:59.000
<v Speaker 4>of value creation from an AI standpoint, and video is

215
00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:03.759
<v Speaker 4>obvious at this point. I mean, there's an argument that

216
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:10.159
<v Speaker 4>companies that do AI and robotics and maybe spaceflight are

217
00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:15.960
<v Speaker 4>going to be overwhelmingly that all the value, almost all

218
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:20.000
<v Speaker 4>the value, So they're just the output of goods and

219
00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:22.240
<v Speaker 4>services from air and robotics are so high that it

220
00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:23.399
<v Speaker 4>will dwarf everything else.

221
00:15:25.320 --> 00:15:30.440
<v Speaker 2>The world seems to be moving to a place where

222
00:15:32.360 --> 00:15:35.360
<v Speaker 2>everybody loves David and hates Golia.

223
00:15:35.399 --> 00:15:41.320
<v Speaker 4>It. I mean, he's the one that cooked the stone

224
00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:45.080
<v Speaker 4>in the forest, you know, which, honestly though, was just

225
00:15:45.120 --> 00:15:48.360
<v Speaker 4>a big mistake. You should have, you know, either cover

226
00:15:48.440 --> 00:15:52.440
<v Speaker 4>yourself entirely with armor and make sure you've got to

227
00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:57.159
<v Speaker 4>missile weapon some kind. Otherwise your opponent is just obviously

228
00:15:57.240 --> 00:16:01.919
<v Speaker 4>going to take a cite the boss strategy. Just guide

229
00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:04.639
<v Speaker 4>the bars. I mean, you run around in a song

230
00:16:04.720 --> 00:16:06.559
<v Speaker 4>with it, it doesn't matter, you know, it's never never

231
00:16:06.600 --> 00:16:07.159
<v Speaker 4>going to catch you.

232
00:16:10.440 --> 00:16:15.679
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, of all of all the people like, uh, you're

233
00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:19.679
<v Speaker 2>as much at risk of being looked upon as go light,

234
00:16:20.799 --> 00:16:22.080
<v Speaker 2>especially the weekend.

235
00:16:25.080 --> 00:16:27.120
<v Speaker 4>Especially, I'm not going to travel around in the desert

236
00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:33.159
<v Speaker 4>with too much armor, you know, too hard after the

237
00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:46.720
<v Speaker 4>last Yeah, I surpise to think about people like in

238
00:16:46.759 --> 00:16:50.200
<v Speaker 4>the old days, you know, when uh, you know it's

239
00:16:50.200 --> 00:16:51.919
<v Speaker 4>supposed to like go into battle with all this armor,

240
00:16:51.919 --> 00:16:53.679
<v Speaker 4>but it's like, let's say it's the middle of summer.

241
00:16:54.000 --> 00:16:56.279
<v Speaker 4>I mean it basically so hot in that armor, you

242
00:16:56.399 --> 00:16:58.799
<v Speaker 4>maybe like sweltering. You know, it's like at a certain point,

243
00:16:58.799 --> 00:17:01.799
<v Speaker 4>you like, I'd rather die. I have to wear this

244
00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:07.200
<v Speaker 4>armor one more in the hot sun. It's like I'd

245
00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:11.480
<v Speaker 4>rather die. And that's why the Romans I had, like

246
00:17:11.519 --> 00:17:13.319
<v Speaker 4>you know, the skirts, you know, because I could get

247
00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:20.640
<v Speaker 4>some air in there, you know. You know, let's say

248
00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:22.000
<v Speaker 4>you have to go to the bathroom when you're an armor.

249
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:26.240
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it's going to be pretty difficult. You're going

250
00:17:26.240 --> 00:17:28.039
<v Speaker 4>to do a ports for a minute, take your armor up.

251
00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:33.160
<v Speaker 4>That's why that the Romans had the skirts, so that mates,

252
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:36.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, going to the bathroom at least manageable.

253
00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:38.519
<v Speaker 3>You often make jokes.

254
00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:47.000
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I like humor. One could argue I think we

255
00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:53.279
<v Speaker 4>should legalize humor. It's controversial stance.

256
00:17:55.480 --> 00:17:56.160
<v Speaker 3>It's comedy.

257
00:17:56.519 --> 00:17:58.640
<v Speaker 2>Comedy going to be really hard for you to get

258
00:17:58.880 --> 00:17:59.759
<v Speaker 2>probably the last thing.

259
00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:02.240
<v Speaker 4>Groc can be pretty funny.

260
00:18:03.599 --> 00:18:07.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you know what I suspected, like this is a

261
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:11.480
<v Speaker 2>far off extrapolation, but when I see you make jokes

262
00:18:11.599 --> 00:18:15.119
<v Speaker 2>on Twitter, on X and on interviews that you do,

263
00:18:16.519 --> 00:18:17.400
<v Speaker 2>at some point I.

264
00:18:17.319 --> 00:18:18.960
<v Speaker 3>Was like, maybe Elon has a model.

265
00:18:19.000 --> 00:18:23.000
<v Speaker 2>He's running in private and he's testing out comedy because

266
00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:25.680
<v Speaker 2>the day that works, he knows it's there.

267
00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:31.039
<v Speaker 4>Uh yeah, And I can be pretty funny. So like,

268
00:18:32.000 --> 00:18:34.039
<v Speaker 4>if you ask Groc to do like a vulgar ust,

269
00:18:34.480 --> 00:18:38.920
<v Speaker 4>we'll do a pretty good job. If even more vulgar,

270
00:18:38.960 --> 00:18:42.000
<v Speaker 4>and just keep going, it's really gonna get next level,

271
00:18:47.359 --> 00:18:50.240
<v Speaker 4>it's gonna do unspeakable like say, vulgar ust yourself on

272
00:18:50.279 --> 00:18:51.960
<v Speaker 4>grok and it's gonna do unspeakable things to you.

273
00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:57.680
<v Speaker 3>What kind of comedy do you like?

274
00:18:59.359 --> 00:19:00.759
<v Speaker 4>I guess I like it so of humor.

275
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:04.920
<v Speaker 3>M hm. Comedy always had a police something like that.

276
00:19:05.599 --> 00:19:09.359
<v Speaker 2>Comedy always had a place in society wherein the role

277
00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:12.880
<v Speaker 2>of the jester was so important to every kingdom because

278
00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:15.920
<v Speaker 2>they said things in a funny way that could not

279
00:19:16.079 --> 00:19:17.200
<v Speaker 2>be said in a straightway.

280
00:19:18.640 --> 00:19:21.279
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I guess so we should have more justice.

281
00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:26.039
<v Speaker 2>Is that what you're trying to do when you say

282
00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:28.680
<v Speaker 2>something which is a joke, say something you can't when

283
00:19:28.680 --> 00:19:29.799
<v Speaker 2>you're not joking about it.

284
00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:35.640
<v Speaker 4>I just like humor. I think we should. I like comedy.

285
00:19:35.680 --> 00:19:37.680
<v Speaker 4>I think it's funny if people should laugh. Yeah, it's good,

286
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:41.519
<v Speaker 4>good to a few chuckles once in a while. Yeah, well,

287
00:19:41.759 --> 00:19:44.119
<v Speaker 4>I mean we don't want to have a humorless society.

288
00:19:45.279 --> 00:19:49.519
<v Speaker 4>We try. When you.

289
00:19:50.440 --> 00:19:54.559
<v Speaker 2>When you have a friend, elone me, Yeah, a friend,

290
00:19:58.279 --> 00:20:01.920
<v Speaker 2>when you hang out with your friend, who are you like?

291
00:20:02.920 --> 00:20:03.319
<v Speaker 3>I know that.

292
00:20:05.000 --> 00:20:07.640
<v Speaker 4>I wish I had friends, you know, have I do

293
00:20:07.759 --> 00:20:15.960
<v Speaker 4>have friends? I think? So? Yeah? Sure, it's yeah, we

294
00:20:16.000 --> 00:20:16.559
<v Speaker 4>have good laugh.

295
00:20:17.319 --> 00:20:19.960
<v Speaker 2>What does it look like like what's like every group

296
00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:21.160
<v Speaker 2>has a dynamic.

297
00:20:24.759 --> 00:20:31.200
<v Speaker 4>Eat food sometimes, you know, once while we swimming the pool,

298
00:20:31.960 --> 00:20:34.200
<v Speaker 4>you know, normal things. I think there's like a limited

299
00:20:34.599 --> 00:20:35.960
<v Speaker 4>What are the things I wanting to do with friends?

300
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:43.519
<v Speaker 4>You know, chat have discussed, you know, the nature of

301
00:20:43.559 --> 00:20:44.039
<v Speaker 4>the universe.

302
00:20:46.720 --> 00:20:48.799
<v Speaker 3>What do you emotionally get out of friendship?

303
00:20:52.440 --> 00:20:53.880
<v Speaker 4>I don't know. I think there the same thing as

304
00:20:53.960 --> 00:20:58.640
<v Speaker 4>any anyone else would get out of friendship. You want

305
00:20:58.640 --> 00:21:02.440
<v Speaker 4>to have like an emotional connect with other people, and

306
00:21:04.200 --> 00:21:06.400
<v Speaker 4>you want to I don't know, you want to You

307
00:21:06.440 --> 00:21:15.680
<v Speaker 4>want to talk about various subjects, and yeah, I mean

308
00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:20.319
<v Speaker 4>generally talk about I mean a wide range of things

309
00:21:20.359 --> 00:21:22.839
<v Speaker 4>about the nature of the universe. I mean a lot

310
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:31.200
<v Speaker 4>of a lot of philosophical discussions. You know, although you know,

311
00:21:31.240 --> 00:21:33.680
<v Speaker 4>we have come to conclusion that we should not talk

312
00:21:33.720 --> 00:21:41.440
<v Speaker 4>about AI or the simulation at parties because we just

313
00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:44.960
<v Speaker 4>talked about it too much. You know, I was kind

314
00:21:44.960 --> 00:21:48.559
<v Speaker 4>of a viskill of time, so.

315
00:21:50.160 --> 00:21:53.000
<v Speaker 2>I can't remember who it was, Aristotle or Plato. They

316
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:56.640
<v Speaker 2>had a framework for how to pick a friend based

317
00:21:56.680 --> 00:21:58.799
<v Speaker 2>on respect.

318
00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:01.680
<v Speaker 3>And mutual admiration. But people don't pick friends like that.

319
00:22:04.319 --> 00:22:04.759
<v Speaker 3>Even me.

320
00:22:04.960 --> 00:22:14.720
<v Speaker 2>I feel like I pick my friends based on people

321
00:22:14.759 --> 00:22:18.640
<v Speaker 2>who say and think in a manner that I can

322
00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:24.039
<v Speaker 2>resonate with. I wouldn't pick a far out the contrariant

323
00:22:24.039 --> 00:22:26.079
<v Speaker 2>to my own belief systems as a friend, because it

324
00:22:26.119 --> 00:22:30.000
<v Speaker 2>would get tiring, would get tired. Are you like that?

325
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:32.039
<v Speaker 2>Do you pick friends who think like you? Or do

326
00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:34.279
<v Speaker 2>you look for the one who can debate you and

327
00:22:34.359 --> 00:22:35.079
<v Speaker 2>be a contrarient.

328
00:22:35.880 --> 00:22:37.920
<v Speaker 4>But I'm not sort of you know, going on like

329
00:22:38.000 --> 00:22:49.359
<v Speaker 4>f friend, it's not down some friends. It's sort of yeah,

330
00:22:49.359 --> 00:22:51.400
<v Speaker 4>I mean I think it is just sort of people

331
00:22:51.400 --> 00:22:56.960
<v Speaker 4>that you're resonated with somewhat on an emotional and intellectual level.

332
00:22:57.519 --> 00:23:04.119
<v Speaker 4>And yeah, yeah, you know. And and if I guess

333
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:08.240
<v Speaker 4>a friend is someone who's gonna support you in difficult times,

334
00:23:08.240 --> 00:23:10.240
<v Speaker 4>I suppose for a friend of need his friend indeed,

335
00:23:10.960 --> 00:23:13.720
<v Speaker 4>like like if if like friend, like if someone is

336
00:23:13.720 --> 00:23:16.119
<v Speaker 4>still supporting you when the chips are down, that's a friend.

337
00:23:16.519 --> 00:23:21.799
<v Speaker 4>You know. If somebody is uh not supporting you, or

338
00:23:22.200 --> 00:23:25.240
<v Speaker 4>if somebody is only like there's like fair farewell, the

339
00:23:25.279 --> 00:23:28.559
<v Speaker 4>friends are useless, you know, they're not real friends. So

340
00:23:29.559 --> 00:23:31.799
<v Speaker 4>like everyone likes you when the chips are up, but

341
00:23:31.839 --> 00:23:33.160
<v Speaker 4>who likes you when the chips are down?

342
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:36.839
<v Speaker 3>With someone who has as many chips as you wouldn't matter.

343
00:23:37.960 --> 00:23:42.359
<v Speaker 4>I mean it's relative. You know, it's not just it's

344
00:23:42.400 --> 00:23:44.119
<v Speaker 4>not just a chips thing. It's just it's just like

345
00:23:44.200 --> 00:23:53.839
<v Speaker 4>a uh yeah, I mean there's there's sort of popularity

346
00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:54.920
<v Speaker 4>waxes and ways.

347
00:23:56.440 --> 00:23:59.000
<v Speaker 3>This is interesting. Does it wax in wain.

348
00:24:01.920 --> 00:24:06.319
<v Speaker 2>Only by virtue of the number of chips or also

349
00:24:06.359 --> 00:24:08.400
<v Speaker 2>by virtue of proximity to power?

350
00:24:08.440 --> 00:24:10.680
<v Speaker 3>And which one is bigger of the two?

351
00:24:20.359 --> 00:24:22.160
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, Like what is power? You know, like

352
00:24:22.400 --> 00:24:23.079
<v Speaker 4>power to do what.

353
00:24:24.519 --> 00:24:26.880
<v Speaker 2>I would I would think in the traditional sense electric

354
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:28.920
<v Speaker 2>power position.

355
00:24:28.759 --> 00:24:30.960
<v Speaker 4>I mean, how many gigats or whatever?

356
00:24:33.519 --> 00:24:34.440
<v Speaker 3>More like how many words?

357
00:24:35.200 --> 00:24:40.359
<v Speaker 4>Ye, Like it's a voltage and a don't touch the wires,

358
00:24:43.920 --> 00:24:49.000
<v Speaker 4>don't put a folk in the power outlet. You'll get

359
00:24:49.000 --> 00:25:02.640
<v Speaker 4>a real feeling for power if you do that. Yeah,

360
00:25:02.640 --> 00:25:03.759
<v Speaker 4>it's gonna be very virtual.

361
00:25:14.359 --> 00:25:18.599
<v Speaker 3>Uh. I know, I know you like Nietsche and chopping hour,

362
00:25:18.680 --> 00:25:19.000
<v Speaker 3>and they.

363
00:25:19.119 --> 00:25:23.039
<v Speaker 2>Read you talk about how your childhood was.

364
00:25:24.119 --> 00:25:27.200
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah, I was just trying to find answers to

365
00:25:27.200 --> 00:25:28.799
<v Speaker 4>the meaning of life when I had like an excidential

366
00:25:28.839 --> 00:25:30.759
<v Speaker 4>crisis and like I don't know, when I was like

367
00:25:30.759 --> 00:25:31.960
<v Speaker 4>twelve or thirteen or something.

368
00:25:32.480 --> 00:25:33.880
<v Speaker 3>They speak about the bill to power.

369
00:25:35.000 --> 00:25:40.720
<v Speaker 4>Sure. I mean it's just said a lot of controversial things,

370
00:25:40.759 --> 00:25:43.920
<v Speaker 4>you know what I mean. It's sort of like he was.

371
00:25:44.440 --> 00:25:46.680
<v Speaker 4>I mean a bit of a troll. If you ask me, yeah,

372
00:25:47.200 --> 00:25:51.880
<v Speaker 4>are you true health? You just say controversial things to

373
00:25:51.920 --> 00:25:53.079
<v Speaker 4>get out of right out of people?

374
00:25:54.559 --> 00:25:56.400
<v Speaker 3>He did a miserable life and died early?

375
00:25:56.559 --> 00:25:56.839
<v Speaker 4>Did he?

376
00:25:57.119 --> 00:25:57.359
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

377
00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:00.880
<v Speaker 4>How do you say he lived in miseral life? I think, okay,

378
00:26:00.880 --> 00:26:01.960
<v Speaker 4>we shouldn't like him.

379
00:26:05.880 --> 00:26:08.039
<v Speaker 3>I think he got sick and he died.

380
00:26:08.119 --> 00:26:14.279
<v Speaker 4>I mean allegedly for something. But there's only one There's

381
00:26:14.279 --> 00:26:19.680
<v Speaker 4>only one way to get that, you know, so you

382
00:26:19.759 --> 00:26:24.240
<v Speaker 4>must he might have had something along the way.

383
00:26:26.440 --> 00:26:30.920
<v Speaker 2>I did want to ask you this. Milton Friedman speaks

384
00:26:30.920 --> 00:26:31.799
<v Speaker 2>about the pencil?

385
00:26:32.559 --> 00:26:39.839
<v Speaker 4>What why? Why does he go on about pencils?

386
00:26:41.200 --> 00:26:44.039
<v Speaker 3>I have to say that after nieation.

387
00:26:46.039 --> 00:26:49.680
<v Speaker 4>Why is it he's talking about pencils? There he goes

388
00:26:49.720 --> 00:26:56.200
<v Speaker 4>again with the pencil. He won't stop. I got a

389
00:26:56.240 --> 00:27:00.960
<v Speaker 4>value one talks about pencil one more time. I'm gonna

390
00:27:01.000 --> 00:27:10.920
<v Speaker 4>lose my mind. He is rabbit on about pencils all day.

391
