Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 1860 Scott Adams： Orange Brandon, US Life Expectancy Falls, Workplaces Less Polite, More Fun

00:00:00.000 It is a cupper mug or a glass of tank of chelsea stein, a canteen jug or flask or a vessel of any kind.

00:00:05.240 Fill it with your favorite beverage.

00:00:07.860 I like coffee.

00:00:09.540 And drink me, and join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine of the day.

00:00:16.500 It's the thing that makes everything better.

00:00:19.720 It's called the simultaneous sip.

00:00:21.580 It happens now.

00:00:22.540 Go.

00:00:26.840 Ah, yeah.

00:00:28.800 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:00:31.400 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:00:34.980 Well, the Queen of England is ill, and family members are gathering around, which is usually the signal that the cat's on the roof.

00:00:46.940 Meaning that I don't think that they're expecting the Queen to recover from this.

00:00:51.720 Because when you do the family is gathering around part, that's kind of telling you the game is about over.

00:01:02.140 Here's what I will predict about that.

00:01:04.660 Are you ready for a prediction?

00:01:05.700 Do you believe that the news happens on a sort of a random schedule?

00:01:14.040 Do you think that news happens, but it just happens when it happens?

00:01:18.160 And if it's going to happen, that's when it happens.

00:01:20.500 No, not the political stuff.

00:01:24.620 So here's my prediction.

00:01:26.700 Should the Queen pass, do you know what's going to happen?

00:01:31.160 All of the bad news about Trump will suddenly stop for a while.

00:01:37.120 Because they need to save the good stuff to when you're paying attention.

00:01:41.080 They're not going to fight with a Queen story.

00:01:44.400 So for about a week or so, if the Queen passes, for about a week or so, the political news will get really boring.

00:01:52.580 And that's how you know it's never been real.

00:01:54.540 If you ever want to test to see if the news is real or manufactured, watch how it stops when there's a competing story.

00:02:05.580 Now, I could be wrong, right?

00:02:07.900 There's some things that the news can't control.

00:02:11.220 But things like an anonymous source told us something bad about Trump,

00:02:16.200 I'll bet you that anonymous source is going to wait another week if there's a competing story.

00:02:22.260 So look for that.

00:02:24.540 As you know, Russia cut off Europe from its gas deliveries and is selling it to the Far East, and China in particular.

00:02:35.860 But that plan might not be as awesome as they hoped, because China just bought a ton of LNG.

00:02:46.180 And they bought it at half of the current spot price.

00:02:52.220 China is buying Russia's gas, but at half the market price.

00:02:58.960 I don't know why it's half.

00:03:00.400 It must be some reason.

00:03:01.980 But this reminds me that if you're worried about China and Russia becoming too close,

00:03:09.900 I don't think they're friends, I don't think anybody's going to do any favors for the other.

00:03:17.640 I think it's just business.

00:03:19.780 So if China gets a chance to screw Russia on a business deal, they're going to do it.

00:03:25.060 And wouldn't expect anything else, of course.

00:03:27.680 But I don't know that Russia is in a good place here.

00:03:30.380 But depending on China to keep you alive seems like a really bad proposition, because they'd have a lot of power on you.

00:03:38.300 All right, here's something that messed up my mind pretty good.

00:03:40.940 I've mentioned before that there's a small number of people who, if they disagree with me, I immediately have to change my opinion.

00:03:52.060 It's like, ah, damn it.

00:03:53.940 For example, if I had some dumbass opinion about the Constitution, but I heard Alan Dershowitz say the opposite opinion,

00:04:01.920 I would immediately say, ah, damn it, Dershowitz.

00:04:07.000 And I would just agree with him, because my own opinion would be worthless in that context.

00:04:12.340 But I just found out that Elon Musk thinks that fusion energy will never be economical.

00:04:22.280 That's the opposite of what everybody thinks, right?

00:04:24.860 The whole point of fusion is that once you get the reaction going, it's the most economical thing you can do.

00:04:31.920 Well, Musk, who I believe has invested in fusion, and so he would know what's actually on the, you know, on the workbench as well as what's in the real world.

00:04:43.920 And he says in a tweet, fusion would be expensive energy, given the difficulty of obtaining and transporting source fuel.

00:04:54.060 And that's interesting, because I thought you only had to do that once.

00:04:57.880 Wasn't that the whole point of fusion?

00:05:00.440 That once you get your source fuel, it doesn't need new fuel.

00:05:05.440 So is it really that hard to get in transport?

00:05:08.400 I don't know.

00:05:09.300 So it's something that was new to me.

00:05:11.980 Plus maintaining the reactor, so it would be hard to maintain the reactor.

00:05:16.460 He says it's far better to use the sun and thermonuclear reactor with no need to refuel or service.

00:05:25.260 Now, here's my problem with that.

00:05:28.620 I feel as if he's making a prediction about fusion based on what we know how to do today.

00:05:35.200 Isn't that right?

00:05:37.360 It looks like a prediction about the future based on what we know how to do today.

00:05:44.180 And that seems wrong coming from him, doesn't it?

00:05:47.260 Because do you think he knew how to go to Mars before he started?

00:05:51.180 I don't think he did.

00:05:52.340 I think he figured it out.

00:05:54.980 And they're still figuring it out, right?

00:05:57.240 Do you think he knew how to build Tesla before he started?

00:06:01.040 I don't think so.

00:06:03.120 Do you think he knew that battery technology would progress the way it has, which has been quite tremendous?

00:06:10.540 He probably hoped it would, but he didn't know exactly what innovations would be next.

00:06:16.060 I don't think he did.

00:06:17.080 Did he?

00:06:18.000 I mean, if he did, that would be pretty impressive.

00:06:19.640 So I feel as if he's got a little bit of apples and orange or a bias going on here somehow.

00:06:27.740 It's hard to tell what's going on.

00:06:29.920 One possibility is he just knows more about it than we do, and you're finding out.

00:06:35.120 The other possibility is I feel like he's picked a favorite.

00:06:41.320 You know, he's got more money invested in batteries, of course.

00:06:43.680 So, I don't know.

00:06:47.280 I feel as if looking at fusion and saying we don't know how to solve these problems is not fair,

00:06:55.000 because we didn't know how to solve the problems for anything else.

00:06:58.760 We always start first and then solve the problems.

00:07:00.960 But it could be that he knows that the nature of fusion is that it'll always be difficult to maintain or always difficult to get the fuel.

00:07:08.380 I don't know.

00:07:09.120 So I don't quite understand the comment.

00:07:11.300 But I immediately abandon my old opinion.

00:07:14.480 And I hate that he does that to me, because I can no longer hold a public opinion that fusion is our economical savior.

00:07:26.640 It might be, but I don't want to be on the other side of this question from Musk.

00:07:31.780 Do you?

00:07:34.080 Man crush.

00:07:37.520 All right.

00:07:38.200 I'm going to test your mind-reading ability.

00:07:47.080 If you were asked a question, let's say if the public were asked this question,

00:07:51.020 if student loan forgiveness means colleges will raise their prices,

00:07:55.780 for example, support for the policy, what happens to support for the loan forgiveness?

00:08:02.660 If you believe that colleges would just raise their prices,

00:08:06.940 because then students wouldn't have to pay as much in theory,

00:08:10.620 would you still be in favor of loan forgiveness if it's just going to cause prices in colleges to go up?

00:08:16.580 What percentage of the public believed that loan forgiveness is still a good idea if colleges just raise their prices?

00:08:29.420 Oh, you're good.

00:08:30.520 It's exactly 25%.

00:08:33.240 Yeah.

00:08:34.200 Oh, you're good.

00:08:35.940 You're good.

00:08:37.740 Let's talk about Carrie Lake.

00:08:42.320 Carrie Lake has announced that she says she has discovered evidence of voter fraud.

00:08:49.040 I assume that means in her state, Arizona, in the last election.

00:08:53.360 But she won't tell us what it is.

00:08:56.800 Because the fake news is fake news.

00:08:59.400 But she's given it to the attorney general.

00:09:02.820 All right.

00:09:03.320 What can we conclude about this discovery that she has about voter fraud?

00:09:09.720 What can we know for sure based on what little we know about the situation?

00:09:15.120 Let me tell you what you can know for sure.

00:09:19.180 It's not important.

00:09:21.200 It's not important.

00:09:22.360 If it were important, you would do both.

00:09:26.340 You would give it to the AG, but you'd also give it to the news.

00:09:29.640 If it were important.

00:09:31.900 So what we can say for sure is it's not important.

00:09:35.160 But she's selling it like it's important by not acting like, oh, I can't tell you.

00:09:40.020 So persuasion-wise, pretty good.

00:09:44.740 Because it makes you talk about the thing that you can't confirm.

00:09:48.680 Does that sound familiar?

00:09:51.600 Making you talk about the thing that you can't confirm?

00:09:55.160 Like what's in those boxes?

00:09:56.720 Yeah, it's the same play.

00:09:59.980 So Carrie Lake is just doing the same play on the Democrats as the Democrats are doing on Trump.

00:10:06.360 Well, there might be something in those boxes.

00:10:09.200 Can't show you.

00:10:10.800 But trust us, somebody's seen it.

00:10:12.540 And boy, are they concerned about what's in those boxes.

00:10:16.300 And how about Russia collusion?

00:10:18.480 Well, Mueller's looking into it.

00:10:20.660 My God, you don't know what he's found by now.

00:10:22.940 All the potential Russia collusion.

00:10:24.920 We can't tell you about it.

00:10:26.480 We can't tell you what he's found yet.

00:10:28.520 It's all secret.

00:10:30.000 But trust us.

00:10:30.900 You've got to be worried about that.

00:10:32.980 So she's just throwing it back in the Democrats.

00:10:35.760 Oh, I've got a secret.

00:10:37.240 I can't tell you about it.

00:10:38.680 But trust me.

00:10:40.040 Trust me when you see it.

00:10:41.360 It's going to be bad.

00:10:43.260 So it's pretty clever.

00:10:46.500 It's sketchy, but it's clever.

00:10:49.740 All right.

00:10:51.480 Speaking of not being able to predict the future,

00:10:54.920 there's a battery company.

00:10:57.340 It looks like a startup, I think,

00:10:59.960 called Lytan, L-Y-T-A-N.

00:11:04.480 Now, the punchline of the story comes at the end.

00:11:07.880 All right.

00:11:08.100 So the first part's interesting, but wait for the end.

00:11:11.600 So they figured out, they think,

00:11:13.460 how to make a better battery than the normal ones for cars and stuff.

00:11:17.960 And they would use materials that are all available in the United States.

00:11:25.060 So if their technology works, and if it's widely adopted,

00:11:30.200 we would not be beholden to China or anybody else for any materials needed to build them.

00:11:36.300 So that's good.

00:11:36.900 And apparently, they'd be, you know, basically better in every way.

00:11:41.900 But of course, this is startups.

00:11:43.500 You have to wait.

00:11:44.320 But here's the punchline.

00:11:46.140 They won a competition for top 10 battery, battery, new battery makers, I guess.

00:11:54.200 Top 10.

00:11:54.840 Which means that there are at least nine other companies

00:11:58.000 that are probably roughly as, have roughly the potential of this one.

00:12:04.480 So whatever you think is the future of battery technology,

00:12:08.860 you're probably way off.

00:12:10.820 Right?

00:12:11.120 It's always about invention.

00:12:12.680 It's about the surprise.

00:12:14.320 And this is just one company out of 10

00:12:17.220 that are planning a surprise for you.

00:12:20.060 You know, they won't all succeed.

00:12:21.640 But that's 10 companies that probably have been funded.

00:12:25.700 And they think they've got a surprise coming for you.

00:12:29.000 That's big, big news.

00:12:30.840 That's big, big news.

00:12:33.000 But you never know which company it is.

00:12:34.720 So it's hard to, it's hard to really know.

00:12:36.660 Like, when's the point when you can get all excited?

00:12:39.340 It's just going to be this sort of gradual improvement.

00:12:42.820 And 10 years from now, you're going to say to yourself,

00:12:45.380 wow, battery sure got good.

00:12:49.720 So it looks like that's going to happen.

00:12:51.640 I think the CDC proved beyond any doubt that they're corrupt.

00:13:00.400 So the, was it Walensky, the director of the CDC,

00:13:05.080 was asked about the wisdom of giving the booster shots

00:13:10.780 to young and or healthy people.

00:13:13.420 Because, you know, everything's different now.

00:13:16.880 It's Omicron and blah, blah, blah.

00:13:19.360 So instead of saying, well, maybe, you know,

00:13:22.780 we have a good reason to give it to the healthy people,

00:13:25.140 or to say that there was some medically reasonable reason

00:13:31.140 to do it this way.

00:13:32.460 Do you know what she said?

00:13:33.380 She said it was to simplify the messaging.

00:13:38.340 What?

00:13:40.380 That's right.

00:13:41.880 She defended giving vaccinations to people that don't need them

00:13:45.760 because they're young or healthy, or both,

00:13:49.460 because it's simpler to say everybody, everybody just take it.

00:13:53.260 That actually happened in public.

00:13:59.360 That's a real thing that happened.

00:14:00.980 You can go check it yourself.

00:14:02.860 I'm paraphrasing a little bit, but go check it yourself.

00:14:06.020 You can hear it in her own words.

00:14:07.960 You can hear the question.

00:14:09.100 You can hear the full answer.

00:14:10.080 And her full answer was basically that the CDC would recommend,

00:14:16.180 and again, I'm paraphrasing,

00:14:18.280 but the way I understood it is very clearly that she's saying,

00:14:22.100 we prefer giving shots to people who don't need them

00:14:25.620 because it's easier to explain, hey, everybody,

00:14:28.480 just go get your shot.

00:14:30.480 I think she said it directly.

00:14:35.400 Are we done with them?

00:14:37.700 I mean, I don't know how much more done you could be

00:14:39.800 with an organization after an answer like that.

00:14:43.260 You should be fired immediately for that answer.

00:14:46.100 Well, unless it's true.

00:14:48.940 If it's true, then there's something more aggressive

00:14:51.620 that needs to be done with the CDC.

00:14:54.020 But if she's the only one saying it,

00:14:56.740 or maybe she was in charge of the decision, I guess,

00:15:00.080 I think you need to be fired immediately for that.

00:15:03.120 That is escorted out the door kind of fired.

00:15:07.020 That's not even, you know,

00:15:09.480 meet me for a meeting on Friday you're fired.

00:15:12.980 That's basically meet you in the parking lot

00:15:15.580 on the way back to work from the interview

00:15:17.740 and escort you out the door,

00:15:19.940 except I don't know who would do it because she's the boss.

00:15:22.660 Who escorts the boss out the door?

00:15:24.920 The president?

00:15:27.160 I don't know.

00:15:27.820 How does the director of the CDC even get picked?

00:15:30.080 A huge escort because she's hot.

00:15:36.740 That is the funniest thing about the director of the CDC.

00:15:40.560 A lot of the men have a crush on her.

00:15:44.920 She is insanely sexy.

00:15:47.640 That's true.

00:15:49.140 I will agree with that interpretation.

00:15:52.140 Whatever else you want to say about her.

00:15:53.580 Well, Eventbrite,

00:15:59.000 the online organization that lets you buy tickets for stuff,

00:16:03.040 apparently they've been taking down events

00:16:05.900 for viewing parties and stuff

00:16:08.660 for the Matt Walsh documentary,

00:16:12.300 What is a Woman?

00:16:13.640 They say it promoted hatred.

00:16:15.460 Now, I haven't seen the entire documentary,

00:16:21.060 but isn't he just asking questions?

00:16:25.260 My understanding is that the documentary involves him

00:16:28.240 asking people who have a different opinion

00:16:31.600 to explain their opinion.

00:16:34.200 And I think he gives them time to explain their whole opinion.

00:16:37.860 Am I wrong?

00:16:39.480 Isn't the entire documentary

00:16:41.420 is about having his opponents

00:16:44.880 have a full opportunity

00:16:47.600 to explain their opinion?

00:16:49.740 And that's considered hate.

00:16:54.380 Do you think we've overshot the mark here a little bit?

00:16:58.480 Now, I always say that

00:16:59.740 you don't have to worry too much about the slippery slope

00:17:02.060 because it's always temporary.

00:17:04.300 Like, this is definitely an overreaction.

00:17:06.860 This is definitely too far.

00:17:08.600 You've taken it too far now.

00:17:10.100 So, it's amazing that that could be considered a hate,

00:17:13.560 to listen to people in their own words

00:17:15.660 tell you what they want.

00:17:18.640 All right.

00:17:21.680 So, Biden tweeted, I guess yesterday,

00:17:25.420 we're going to build the future in America

00:17:27.120 with American workers

00:17:28.420 and American factories

00:17:30.200 using American-made products.

00:17:34.500 Now, who does that sound like?

00:17:36.640 It sounds like the transition to orange brand

00:17:46.260 in this complete.

00:17:48.860 Like, I told you when Biden took office,

00:17:53.200 I told you that he was going to have to

00:17:55.020 end up doing the same things that Trump does

00:17:57.880 or else fail

00:17:59.020 because a lot of things Trump did were just working.

00:18:02.120 So, if you did the opposite thing,

00:18:04.200 you know, it wouldn't last long.

00:18:05.440 You're going to have to go back to doing

00:18:06.520 what Trump was doing

00:18:07.320 because it worked.

00:18:09.240 And here we are

00:18:10.800 with Orange Brandon

00:18:12.420 basically saying

00:18:14.380 make America great again.

00:18:16.460 He's just using his own words.

00:18:18.940 So, he could not be more

00:18:20.460 American first,

00:18:21.820 America first.

00:18:23.780 He's as America first as Trump now.

00:18:26.260 Isn't he?

00:18:27.300 Or at least he's trying to be.

00:18:28.500 Now, he's not America first in Ukraine,

00:18:31.000 but at least in this respect.

00:18:34.160 All right, remember I told some of you

00:18:35.980 I had this weird medical mystery,

00:18:39.260 which is why I feel fine most of the time,

00:18:41.800 but when I try to write on my laptop,

00:18:44.320 I fall asleep within a minute.

00:18:46.720 It has nothing to do with sleep.

00:18:48.720 It doesn't matter if I've well slept

00:18:50.300 or haven't slept at all.

00:18:51.520 It's exactly the same experience.

00:18:53.640 And so, a lot of people

00:18:54.680 in what I call

00:18:56.580 the collaborative intelligence

00:18:58.080 of whatever it is

00:18:59.140 we're doing here.

00:19:00.640 A lot of doctors

00:19:01.700 weighed in.

00:19:04.700 And it does

00:19:06.180 turn out

00:19:07.340 that there are studies

00:19:08.460 of glucose

00:19:09.440 and it does make you

00:19:11.500 more mentally alert.

00:19:13.120 So, if they give you

00:19:13.880 glucose and coffee

00:19:15.200 before a mental challenge,

00:19:17.420 you'll do better

00:19:18.080 than either nothing

00:19:20.160 or coffee alone.

00:19:21.300 So, glucose actually

00:19:22.840 is brain fuel.

00:19:24.900 And there's something

00:19:27.240 I've always imagined

00:19:28.560 to be true about me.

00:19:31.580 And this sort of confirmed,

00:19:33.140 well, it's more evidence of it.

00:19:35.160 And you know how some people

00:19:36.400 have a muscle structure

00:19:38.580 where they can sprint

00:19:39.720 really quickly,

00:19:41.220 but they might not be good

00:19:42.340 for long distance running.

00:19:44.640 Right?

00:19:44.940 And vice versa.

00:19:46.200 Some people have muscles

00:19:47.120 that are fast twitch.

00:19:48.680 It might be good

00:19:49.280 for a reflex sport

00:19:50.620 like ping pong,

00:19:52.000 but not so good

00:19:52.860 to be a weightlifter

00:19:53.880 or something.

00:19:55.260 And I've always imagined

00:19:56.400 that my brain

00:19:57.420 had that similar quality,

00:20:00.260 which is that

00:20:01.840 I feel like I can go

00:20:03.380 really deep

00:20:05.400 for very short periods

00:20:07.120 of time.

00:20:08.380 Like, deeper than

00:20:09.500 other people can go.

00:20:10.820 But only for short periods.

00:20:12.160 Because it's so intense,

00:20:13.760 it's just exhausting.

00:20:15.420 But what I can do,

00:20:16.680 what I can't do well,

00:20:18.660 is focus on something

00:20:20.380 for a long period of time.

00:20:21.760 I can't do that.

00:20:24.420 But if you give me,

00:20:25.420 you know,

00:20:25.980 ten minutes of insane

00:20:27.440 concentration on something,

00:20:29.400 I can penetrate

00:20:30.720 the center of the planet.

00:20:33.520 But you tell me

00:20:34.560 to spend two hours

00:20:35.880 doing some homework,

00:20:37.160 I can't do that.

00:20:38.280 I can't do that.

00:20:39.740 I don't think that's ADHD.

00:20:41.500 I don't think I have

00:20:42.280 those symptoms exactly.

00:20:44.260 I mean,

00:20:44.480 I get distracted

00:20:45.260 like other people do,

00:20:46.260 but that's about it.

00:20:48.240 Yeah.

00:20:48.480 So, I'm going to test this.

00:20:51.420 I'm going to test the theory

00:20:52.520 that sugaring myself up

00:20:54.640 would keep me awake

00:20:55.440 in those situations.

00:20:56.360 I'll let you know.

00:20:57.360 I'll let you know

00:20:58.160 what happens.

00:21:00.400 All right.

00:21:01.780 So, apparently,

00:21:02.620 Republicans are

00:21:03.560 planning to go on

00:21:06.740 an impeachment

00:21:07.380 and investigation

00:21:08.500 frenzy

00:21:10.660 should the Republicans

00:21:11.880 take control

00:21:12.640 of everything

00:21:13.080 after various elections.

00:21:15.820 And what do you think

00:21:16.600 of that idea?

00:21:17.160 Do you think Republicans

00:21:18.600 should pay back

00:21:19.660 the Democrats

00:21:20.220 for all these investigations

00:21:21.740 and impeachments?

00:21:25.480 Is payback a good idea

00:21:27.120 or a bad idea?

00:21:31.580 Because the trouble is

00:21:32.820 it doesn't seem to produce

00:21:34.420 mutually assured destruction,

00:21:38.660 does it?

00:21:40.540 If mutually assured destruction

00:21:42.620 is what we're talking about,

00:21:44.120 then I'd say yes.

00:21:45.060 You have to make it look like

00:21:47.560 it's such a bad idea

00:21:48.940 to do it to you

00:21:49.860 that they'll never

00:21:51.420 do it again.

00:21:52.900 But that's not

00:21:53.740 going to happen, right?

00:21:55.600 I think the investigations

00:21:57.060 really,

00:21:57.760 they impact

00:21:58.720 one person at a time

00:22:00.340 and all the people

00:22:01.800 who are not

00:22:02.360 investigated

00:22:03.200 think,

00:22:03.840 oh,

00:22:04.020 I'm going to investigate

00:22:04.740 your team

00:22:05.360 because you got

00:22:06.340 one of mine.

00:22:07.300 I don't think there's

00:22:08.300 no mutually assured

00:22:09.740 destruction.

00:22:11.320 It's just mutually assured

00:22:13.140 fucking with each other

00:22:14.760 and that doesn't stop you

00:22:16.260 from fucking with each other,

00:22:17.420 does it?

00:22:18.920 To me,

00:22:19.500 it looks like

00:22:19.980 it's just making things worse.

00:22:23.140 But on the other hand,

00:22:25.180 can you let people

00:22:25.960 put you in jail

00:22:26.760 and not respond?

00:22:28.900 Can you let people

00:22:29.900 like destroy lives

00:22:31.100 and take over the country

00:22:32.120 and,

00:22:33.000 you know,

00:22:33.560 I mean,

00:22:33.960 do really big,

00:22:35.220 big things

00:22:35.940 and just not respond?

00:22:37.740 Just say,

00:22:38.120 well,

00:22:38.720 we're going to play polite.

00:22:40.840 I don't know.

00:22:41.980 This one's a tough one.

00:22:44.060 I don't think

00:22:44.760 there's a general answer.

00:22:46.120 I think it depends

00:22:47.020 on the specifics.

00:22:48.600 So if there are

00:22:49.160 specific people

00:22:49.980 who really cross the line,

00:22:51.580 well,

00:22:51.980 you've got to do something.

00:22:53.940 But I don't think

00:22:54.860 we should make it

00:22:55.460 a habit

00:22:56.260 to just,

00:22:56.680 like,

00:22:57.300 try to savage

00:22:58.140 the other side

00:22:58.920 when you win.

00:22:59.700 That seems like

00:23:00.360 a bad,

00:23:00.840 bad strategy.

00:23:03.680 How do you feel

00:23:04.360 about bullies?

00:23:05.360 I don't know

00:23:05.820 if it's a bully question.

00:23:07.560 Is it?

00:23:07.980 See,

00:23:11.060 the trouble is

00:23:11.680 that if you beat up

00:23:13.000 a bully,

00:23:13.440 it does stop

00:23:14.120 the bullying.

00:23:16.540 That's why people do it.

00:23:18.700 But this,

00:23:19.200 this wouldn't stop anything.

00:23:20.780 There's no amount

00:23:21.520 of impeachment

00:23:22.120 from one side

00:23:22.880 that's going to stop

00:23:23.500 the other side

00:23:24.020 from impeaching.

00:23:25.520 So,

00:23:26.760 the whole bully model

00:23:28.660 doesn't make sense.

00:23:30.640 If I,

00:23:31.200 if you ask me,

00:23:32.140 should you beat up

00:23:32.780 your bully,

00:23:33.360 I'd say,

00:23:34.020 probably.

00:23:35.060 I mean,

00:23:35.280 it sort of depends

00:23:36.220 on the situation,

00:23:37.600 but probably.

00:23:38.500 You should probably

00:23:39.020 take a run at it.

00:23:40.580 But I don't think

00:23:41.300 it's going to work

00:23:42.060 in the political context.

00:23:45.500 So,

00:23:45.960 we'll see.

00:23:47.900 Wall Street Journal

00:23:48.720 is reporting that,

00:23:49.800 at least anecdotally,

00:23:51.180 people are saying

00:23:52.200 that the workplace

00:23:53.100 is less polite

00:23:54.360 than it used to be.

00:23:56.640 And part of it

00:23:57.460 is the work at home,

00:23:58.540 part of it

00:23:58.880 was the pandemic,

00:23:59.860 part of it was,

00:24:00.960 you know,

00:24:01.240 lots of speculation.

00:24:02.240 How many of you

00:24:04.400 think that's true?

00:24:06.120 I don't know

00:24:06.800 how many of you

00:24:07.560 are,

00:24:09.140 if you're listening

00:24:09.800 right now,

00:24:10.320 you're probably not

00:24:11.140 back to work necessarily.

00:24:14.200 But,

00:24:14.760 do you believe that?

00:24:16.560 I'm looking at

00:24:17.100 your comments here.

00:24:19.360 And,

00:24:19.960 some people believe it,

00:24:21.960 but a lot of people

00:24:23.040 say it's not true.

00:24:24.780 So,

00:24:25.300 there are more people

00:24:25.900 saying it's not true

00:24:26.880 than true.

00:24:29.080 Not here.

00:24:29.960 Yeah,

00:24:30.180 it must be very specific.

00:24:32.240 Young people are not

00:24:33.320 taught to be polite.

00:24:34.880 There's something to that.

00:24:36.160 It might also be

00:24:36.940 how many young people

00:24:37.760 work there,

00:24:38.220 right?

00:24:39.560 It could be a

00:24:40.160 generational thing.

00:24:42.380 Because,

00:24:43.060 if you took

00:24:44.280 two years

00:24:44.880 out of my work life

00:24:45.820 when I was 25,

00:24:48.480 that would be like

00:24:49.380 half of all

00:24:50.580 of my work life.

00:24:53.040 Right?

00:24:53.920 But,

00:24:54.400 if you give me

00:24:55.520 a two-year pandemic

00:24:56.580 and I'm already 50,

00:24:59.220 that two years

00:24:59.980 isn't going to change

00:25:00.740 my basic nature.

00:25:02.240 But,

00:25:03.040 it might change

00:25:03.620 your basic nature

00:25:04.520 if you just

00:25:05.260 started working.

00:25:10.600 Lack of socialization

00:25:11.760 because of technology.

00:25:14.660 Yeah,

00:25:15.180 I'm not sure

00:25:15.640 this is a real thing.

00:25:17.260 You know,

00:25:17.720 every generation

00:25:18.720 thinks that the

00:25:19.640 generation coming up

00:25:21.100 is a disaster.

00:25:23.340 Has that ever

00:25:24.060 been different?

00:25:25.620 Has there ever

00:25:26.260 been a time

00:25:26.780 when we said,

00:25:27.400 whoa,

00:25:27.840 we were pretty bad,

00:25:28.760 but this new generation,

00:25:29.740 they look like

00:25:30.180 they have it going on?

00:25:31.000 I don't think

00:25:32.100 that's a thing.

00:25:33.220 I think we always

00:25:33.900 think that the

00:25:34.400 new generation

00:25:34.960 is doomed.

00:25:38.260 There's a lot more

00:25:39.040 ghosting going on

00:25:40.260 in the business world.

00:25:41.860 Have you noticed that?

00:25:43.760 There's a salesperson

00:25:44.940 who says people

00:25:45.700 just don't call

00:25:46.980 them back

00:25:47.400 after they seemed

00:25:48.120 interested.

00:25:50.440 Do you think

00:25:51.060 there's more of that?

00:25:52.680 I feel like

00:25:53.280 there's more ghosting.

00:25:54.220 Yeah.

00:25:57.060 And part of that

00:25:57.880 is just people

00:25:58.360 are busier.

00:25:59.560 It's just too hard

00:26:00.600 to get back

00:26:01.040 to everybody

00:26:01.480 these days.

00:26:04.020 All right,

00:26:04.200 well,

00:26:04.400 China has passed

00:26:05.140 the U.S.

00:26:05.620 in life expectancy.

00:26:07.520 Do you want to

00:26:08.120 take any guesses

00:26:08.840 why that might be?

00:26:11.360 Talk about a story

00:26:12.480 that's annoying.

00:26:13.980 Hey,

00:26:14.920 look how good

00:26:15.580 China's doing.

00:26:16.520 They passed

00:26:17.100 the United States

00:26:17.740 in life expectancy.

00:26:18.900 All right,

00:26:20.920 well,

00:26:21.180 I hate to put

00:26:22.320 a negative spin

00:26:23.220 on that awesome story,

00:26:25.300 but it's because

00:26:26.040 they're killing people

00:26:26.940 in America.

00:26:28.700 They're killing

00:26:29.620 Americans

00:26:30.140 with fentanyl.

00:26:31.960 If you took that out,

00:26:33.340 I think it'd be

00:26:33.800 a lot more competitive.

00:26:37.240 So,

00:26:37.780 somebody on Twitter

00:26:40.940 said,

00:26:42.200 why don't we

00:26:43.420 coerce

00:26:44.660 or encourage

00:26:46.100 the Mexican government

00:26:47.440 to use

00:26:48.660 their own military

00:26:49.460 to take out

00:26:50.120 the cartels?

00:26:53.100 To which I said,

00:26:55.020 wow,

00:26:56.140 you're really

00:26:57.660 not paying attention.

00:26:59.540 There's no

00:27:00.240 Mexican government.

00:27:01.960 That's not a thing.

00:27:03.640 Who thinks

00:27:04.120 there's a Mexican government?

00:27:06.020 The cartels

00:27:06.600 own the government.

00:27:08.980 If you didn't know that,

00:27:10.500 you must be

00:27:11.080 really confused

00:27:11.980 about everything

00:27:13.340 that's going on.

00:27:14.600 If Mexico

00:27:15.240 had a functional government,

00:27:16.820 nothing would look

00:27:17.420 the same.

00:27:17.820 you wouldn't have

00:27:18.960 a border problem,

00:27:19.980 you wouldn't have

00:27:20.380 the drugs coming over

00:27:21.360 and the numbers

00:27:22.000 that they are.

00:27:23.880 Yeah.

00:27:24.340 No,

00:27:24.600 there's no Mexican

00:27:25.280 government.

00:27:26.320 Not in a real sense.

00:27:28.120 They're just clients

00:27:29.040 of the cartels.

00:27:30.640 So,

00:27:31.560 when you say,

00:27:32.260 what are the Mexican people

00:27:33.740 or the Mexican government

00:27:35.260 going to say

00:27:35.920 if the United States

00:27:37.620 made a direct military

00:27:38.940 attack on the cartels?

00:27:40.200 the answer is,

00:27:42.080 what's the difference?

00:27:43.520 What's the difference

00:27:44.120 what they say?

00:27:45.620 How could that possibly

00:27:46.820 have any impact on us?

00:27:48.980 Only if we wanted to.

00:27:51.980 Because we would be

00:27:53.140 attacking the government

00:27:54.200 in a sense,

00:27:55.220 because the cartels

00:27:55.860 are the real power there.

00:27:57.820 So,

00:27:58.420 it doesn't matter

00:27:59.100 what the official

00:28:00.440 functioning government

00:28:01.520 says,

00:28:01.960 that's who we're attacking.

00:28:03.260 We're attacking the government.

00:28:04.420 So,

00:28:06.320 am I telling you

00:28:07.120 that the United States

00:28:07.920 should attack

00:28:08.540 the de facto

00:28:10.740 government of Mexico?

00:28:12.340 Yeah.

00:28:13.040 Yeah,

00:28:13.260 that's what I just said.

00:28:14.660 Just as clearly

00:28:15.620 as you could possibly hear it,

00:28:17.320 we should send

00:28:17.940 a major military

00:28:19.020 expedition down there

00:28:20.560 and just either

00:28:21.840 occupy it,

00:28:23.720 occupy it,

00:28:25.040 or destroy

00:28:26.320 whatever resources

00:28:27.660 are sending

00:28:28.480 all that death

00:28:29.060 into America.

00:28:31.300 Now,

00:28:31.800 some say,

00:28:33.140 and this is a good point,

00:28:34.420 that we wouldn't know

00:28:35.420 what to bomb.

00:28:37.680 Because,

00:28:37.980 I don't know,

00:28:38.340 could you find

00:28:38.820 the exact lab

00:28:39.700 that makes fentanyl?

00:28:42.160 It's probably like

00:28:42.860 one building somewhere.

00:28:44.160 It'd be hard to find.

00:28:45.400 But I feel like

00:28:46.020 we could find it.

00:28:47.180 But that's not really

00:28:47.960 what you do.

00:28:49.140 You take out

00:28:49.660 the cartel leadership.

00:28:52.000 Right?

00:28:52.400 You make it so

00:28:53.280 that they can't possibly

00:28:54.400 enjoy the fruits

00:28:56.520 of their labor.

00:28:58.060 And then you try

00:28:58.820 to talk them

00:28:59.840 into going legit.

00:29:02.720 You try to talk

00:29:03.600 the cartels

00:29:04.800 into turning

00:29:07.380 their money

00:29:07.840 into some

00:29:08.400 legitimate businesses,

00:29:09.560 like the way

00:29:09.920 the mafia did.

00:29:11.660 Basically,

00:29:12.340 you get them

00:29:12.740 to open casinos

00:29:13.980 instead of

00:29:15.680 selling drugs.

00:29:17.580 Because you can

00:29:18.000 make money

00:29:18.400 either way.

00:29:20.320 Something like that.

00:29:21.940 Something like that.

00:29:23.320 Now,

00:29:23.640 the other possibility

00:29:24.320 is that you hire

00:29:25.280 one of the cartels

00:29:26.200 to kill the other one.

00:29:28.560 I'm surprised

00:29:29.320 we haven't done that,

00:29:30.200 actually.

00:29:30.920 Because the cartels

00:29:31.860 are only in it

00:29:32.400 for the money,

00:29:32.900 right?

00:29:34.280 So you couldn't

00:29:35.320 hire one of the cartels

00:29:36.460 to secure the border?

00:29:39.260 They'd have to kill

00:29:40.100 the other cartel.

00:29:41.480 But if you paid them

00:29:43.420 enough,

00:29:43.700 they'd do it.

00:29:45.600 Did they make

00:29:46.340 so much money

00:29:47.020 by smuggling people

00:29:48.080 in that they wouldn't

00:29:48.800 take a direct bribe

00:29:49.840 from the United States?

00:29:51.000 Look,

00:29:51.340 here's the deal.

00:29:52.540 You're making

00:29:53.180 a billion dollars a year

00:29:54.440 smuggling people

00:29:55.980 into our country.

00:29:56.680 We'll pay you

00:29:58.180 1.2 to stop doing it

00:29:59.820 and kill anybody

00:30:00.560 who tries it.

00:30:01.980 Like,

00:30:02.400 oh,

00:30:02.720 that's another

00:30:03.160 200 million.

00:30:04.100 Okay.

00:30:05.320 We're in.

00:30:08.560 Anyway,

00:30:09.100 I think the attack

00:30:09.960 on China

00:30:10.500 is so inevitable

00:30:11.500 that it's ridiculous

00:30:12.700 that we don't just

00:30:13.620 plan it

00:30:14.440 and do it now.

00:30:15.520 It's not like

00:30:16.340 we're not going

00:30:16.880 to do it.

00:30:18.920 Be serious.

00:30:19.840 Do you think

00:30:20.120 we're not going

00:30:20.700 to attack Mexico

00:30:21.920 because of this?

00:30:22.740 Of course we are.

00:30:23.380 Of course we are.

00:30:26.180 There's a 100%

00:30:27.260 chance we are.

00:30:28.320 We are going

00:30:29.320 to militarily

00:30:29.980 attack Mexico.

00:30:31.520 You're going to

00:30:32.120 have to accept this.

00:30:33.680 It's only a matter

00:30:34.620 of when.

00:30:36.080 There's no other

00:30:37.060 question.

00:30:38.340 The question of

00:30:39.080 will we attack

00:30:39.760 Mexico is done.

00:30:41.140 That's done.

00:30:42.180 We are going

00:30:42.880 to fucking

00:30:43.220 attack Mexico

00:30:44.020 and we're going

00:30:45.900 to go hard.

00:30:47.560 We just don't know

00:30:48.560 when.

00:30:49.300 It could be

00:30:49.640 five years.

00:30:50.820 Who knows?

00:30:53.380 There's a video

00:30:55.940 of a robot

00:30:56.760 allegedly seeing

00:30:58.720 itself in a mirror

00:30:59.740 for the first

00:31:00.380 time.

00:31:01.040 An AI driven

00:31:01.980 robot.

00:31:03.380 And when you

00:31:03.860 look at it

00:31:04.480 it's not

00:31:05.660 immediately obvious

00:31:06.560 if the robot

00:31:07.320 is having some

00:31:08.040 kind of internal

00:31:09.580 if I can call

00:31:11.140 it mental

00:31:11.600 reaction

00:31:12.720 or if it's

00:31:14.440 just programmed

00:31:15.080 to act the way

00:31:15.700 it's acting.

00:31:17.360 It's hard to

00:31:18.160 tell.

00:31:18.980 But I said

00:31:19.760 the following.

00:31:21.000 If a robot

00:31:21.720 can recognize

00:31:22.560 itself in the

00:31:23.500 mirror

00:31:23.760 it's conscious.

00:31:27.000 Unless

00:31:27.480 it has simply

00:31:28.840 been programmed

00:31:29.460 to recognize

00:31:30.680 itself in the

00:31:31.380 mirror.

00:31:32.760 If it's been

00:31:33.540 programmed

00:31:33.960 specifically

00:31:34.700 act this way

00:31:35.800 when you see

00:31:36.880 a reflection

00:31:37.460 that doesn't

00:31:38.240 mean anything.

00:31:39.700 But if it

00:31:40.540 came to that

00:31:41.160 on its own

00:31:41.820 let's say

00:31:43.220 you had

00:31:43.520 programmed it

00:31:44.260 in a general

00:31:44.900 sense.

00:31:45.700 So it had

00:31:46.040 a general idea

00:31:46.860 of things

00:31:47.340 and then you

00:31:48.200 showed it

00:31:48.560 a mirror

00:31:48.880 mirror and

00:31:49.940 if it

00:31:50.460 looked in

00:31:50.880 the mirror

00:31:51.280 and if

00:31:52.640 it knew

00:31:53.140 that it

00:31:54.540 was seeing

00:31:54.940 itself

00:31:55.560 it would

00:31:56.580 at that

00:31:56.960 moment

00:31:57.340 understand

00:31:57.980 that it

00:31:58.540 is unique

00:31:59.400 among the

00:32:00.720 world.

00:32:02.660 Right?

00:32:03.400 It would

00:32:03.740 understand that

00:32:04.420 its understanding

00:32:05.400 of itself

00:32:05.940 was somehow

00:32:06.480 in itself

00:32:07.260 and coming

00:32:08.360 from itself

00:32:09.060 and that

00:32:10.020 itself was

00:32:10.820 different

00:32:11.260 and distinct

00:32:12.420 from the rest

00:32:13.560 of the world

00:32:14.120 and it

00:32:15.000 would also

00:32:15.240 have the

00:32:15.620 beginning

00:32:15.920 of a sense

00:32:16.460 of how

00:32:16.720 it fit

00:32:17.140 into the

00:32:17.660 whole.

00:32:18.580 To me

00:32:18.980 that's

00:32:19.260 consciousness.

00:32:21.160 To me

00:32:21.500 that's

00:32:21.780 consciousness.

00:32:23.300 Now you

00:32:23.860 could disagree

00:32:24.500 but it's

00:32:25.880 sort of

00:32:26.140 subjective.

00:32:29.420 Yeah I

00:32:29.840 think if you

00:32:30.300 understand your

00:32:30.960 place in

00:32:32.180 the universe

00:32:32.800 you're

00:32:34.060 conscious.

00:32:37.520 And I

00:32:38.480 think that

00:32:38.860 the feeling

00:32:39.440 of consciousness

00:32:40.100 which is

00:32:40.620 different

00:32:40.980 there's a

00:32:42.480 sensation

00:32:42.960 that you

00:32:43.260 have

00:32:43.400 internally

00:32:43.820 that feeling

00:32:44.600 of consciousness

00:32:45.240 which I

00:32:46.540 think is

00:32:46.860 different from

00:32:47.480 being conscious

00:32:48.820 because I

00:32:49.900 think you

00:32:50.180 could be

00:32:50.520 conscious

00:32:50.880 without the

00:32:51.420 internal

00:32:51.760 feeling

00:32:52.220 probably.

00:32:54.240 But I

00:32:54.740 think the

00:32:55.040 internal

00:32:55.380 feeling is

00:32:55.960 nothing but

00:32:56.680 predicting

00:32:57.940 what's going

00:32:58.480 to happen

00:32:58.840 in the

00:32:59.240 next moment

00:32:59.900 and then

00:33:01.280 judging

00:33:03.080 whether it

00:33:03.540 happened or

00:33:03.980 not.

00:33:04.780 And the

00:33:05.020 difference

00:33:05.380 between what

00:33:06.000 happened and

00:33:06.980 what you

00:33:08.120 thought would

00:33:08.480 happen,

00:33:09.280 that little

00:33:09.720 friction,

00:33:10.620 the difference,

00:33:11.400 that's your

00:33:11.860 feeling of

00:33:12.360 consciousness.

00:33:13.080 That's it.

00:33:13.820 It's just

00:33:14.600 the difference

00:33:15.040 between what

00:33:15.520 you thought

00:33:15.820 was going

00:33:16.120 to happen

00:33:16.400 in the

00:33:16.660 next moment

00:33:17.240 and what

00:33:18.040 actually

00:33:18.340 happened.

00:33:20.680 And here's

00:33:21.400 how you

00:33:21.620 know this

00:33:21.980 is true.

00:33:23.100 You ready

00:33:23.460 for this?

00:33:25.180 Imagine

00:33:25.620 living in a

00:33:26.260 world where

00:33:26.680 everything that

00:33:27.420 happens you

00:33:28.460 knew in

00:33:28.840 advance.

00:33:31.260 So you

00:33:31.880 know that

00:33:32.480 I'm going

00:33:33.760 to pick up

00:33:34.420 this napkin

00:33:35.000 and wave it

00:33:35.460 at you.

00:33:35.880 You knew

00:33:36.240 that in

00:33:36.580 advance.

00:33:37.280 You knew

00:33:37.700 that I was

00:33:38.100 going to turn

00:33:38.520 around in

00:33:39.380 advance.

00:33:40.220 You knew

00:33:40.620 that I was

00:33:40.960 going to take

00:33:41.360 a drink in

00:33:42.260 advance.

00:33:45.280 How long

00:33:46.020 would it

00:33:46.320 take for

00:33:47.560 your

00:33:47.760 consciousness

00:33:48.260 to disappear?

00:33:51.440 Think about

00:33:52.160 it.

00:33:52.840 If everything

00:33:53.420 happened the

00:33:53.980 way you

00:33:54.240 expected it

00:33:54.820 to, how

00:33:55.780 long would

00:33:56.140 it take

00:33:56.440 you to

00:33:56.760 lose

00:33:57.620 consciousness

00:33:58.340 forever?

00:34:00.280 It would

00:34:00.940 happen right

00:34:01.400 away.

00:34:02.440 You would

00:34:03.060 have no

00:34:03.360 consciousness

00:34:03.800 because there

00:34:05.040 would be

00:34:05.240 nothing happening.

00:34:05.900 your brain

00:34:07.500 wouldn't need

00:34:07.980 to be

00:34:08.240 engaged

00:34:08.760 because

00:34:09.460 everything

00:34:09.780 that

00:34:09.980 happens

00:34:10.300 you

00:34:10.640 understand.

00:34:11.880 So you

00:34:12.200 wouldn't

00:34:12.360 even have

00:34:12.660 to pay

00:34:12.880 attention

00:34:13.200 to the

00:34:13.560 real world.

00:34:14.520 It would

00:34:14.880 just become

00:34:15.300 some internal

00:34:15.920 process.

00:34:17.000 You basically

00:34:17.560 would lose

00:34:18.180 consciousness.

00:34:19.460 So the

00:34:19.740 difference

00:34:20.040 between your

00:34:20.680 prediction

00:34:21.120 and what

00:34:21.520 happens is

00:34:22.040 the only

00:34:22.300 thing keeping

00:34:22.740 you awake.

00:34:24.020 That's it.

00:34:27.900 Yeah, the

00:34:28.540 more you

00:34:28.860 understand about

00:34:29.620 AI, the

00:34:30.180 less impressive

00:34:30.880 it is.

00:34:31.380 That's exactly

00:34:31.960 right.

00:34:32.760 But I

00:34:33.080 would say

00:34:33.420 that I

00:34:34.400 would put

00:34:34.760 that in

00:34:35.200 a graph.

00:34:36.700 I would

00:34:37.220 say that

00:34:37.660 when you

00:34:37.960 first start

00:34:38.540 learning about

00:34:39.060 AI, it's

00:34:39.800 more and

00:34:40.480 more impressive.

00:34:42.020 It's more

00:34:42.500 and more

00:34:42.800 impressive.

00:34:43.380 It's like,

00:34:43.700 man, that

00:34:44.440 is so

00:34:44.760 impressive.

00:34:45.700 Until you

00:34:46.400 reach a

00:34:46.920 really high

00:34:47.400 understanding

00:34:47.960 and then

00:34:48.980 all of the

00:34:49.520 impressiveness

00:34:50.060 disappears.

00:34:52.000 Because once

00:34:52.660 you realize

00:34:53.080 it's just

00:34:53.500 mechanical and

00:34:55.020 you realize

00:34:55.500 that you're

00:34:55.820 just mechanical

00:34:56.460 too, that's

00:34:58.100 when you

00:34:58.620 ascend to the

00:34:59.760 next level

00:35:00.280 of awareness.

00:35:01.960 Which, by

00:35:02.600 the way,

00:35:02.920 let me

00:35:05.080 do a

00:35:05.320 fact check

00:35:05.720 here.

00:35:07.020 In

00:35:07.620 2015,

00:35:09.000 16 or

00:35:09.580 so, I

00:35:10.060 predicted that

00:35:10.780 the entire

00:35:11.580 world was

00:35:13.260 going to

00:35:14.100 have an

00:35:14.960 awareness

00:35:15.360 shift.

00:35:16.660 Did it

00:35:17.160 happen?

00:35:19.040 Did it

00:35:19.740 happen?

00:35:21.060 Do you

00:35:21.340 think that

00:35:21.780 the whole

00:35:22.220 world has

00:35:23.640 changed their

00:35:24.240 awareness?

00:35:25.600 Like, we've

00:35:26.160 reached a

00:35:26.800 level of

00:35:27.240 awareness that

00:35:27.860 we were not

00:35:28.840 at.

00:35:29.660 Yeah.

00:35:29.800 because now

00:35:31.040 we understand

00:35:31.580 how fake

00:35:32.080 everything is

00:35:32.780 in a way

00:35:33.800 we did not

00:35:34.500 understand.

00:35:35.100 And Trump

00:35:35.380 did that.

00:35:36.220 Trump did

00:35:36.820 that for

00:35:37.140 us.

00:35:41.280 All right,

00:35:41.840 here's the

00:35:42.360 next thing I

00:35:43.360 want to say

00:35:43.660 about robots.

00:35:44.880 And this is

00:35:45.480 really, really

00:35:46.260 important for

00:35:47.800 the future.

00:35:49.120 You know, the

00:35:49.480 people who are

00:35:50.040 predicting climate

00:35:50.980 change in 80

00:35:52.000 years, let me

00:35:54.460 ask you, did

00:35:55.020 you see this

00:35:55.540 coming, the

00:35:56.120 next thing I'm

00:35:56.660 going to talk

00:35:57.000 about?

00:35:57.220 There are

00:35:58.800 still people

00:35:59.380 who believe

00:36:00.100 that only a

00:36:02.500 few people

00:36:03.040 will fall in

00:36:03.680 love with

00:36:04.060 robots.

00:36:05.260 And they'd

00:36:05.620 be like the

00:36:06.060 weirdos.

00:36:07.240 You know, the

00:36:07.580 same ones who

00:36:08.140 have a

00:36:09.500 relationship with

00:36:10.260 a blow-up

00:36:10.760 doll.

00:36:11.800 Is that what

00:36:12.220 you think?

00:36:13.760 You're all

00:36:14.460 going to fall

00:36:14.880 in love with

00:36:15.360 robots.

00:36:17.440 You don't

00:36:18.060 see that

00:36:18.460 coming?

00:36:19.860 You don't

00:36:20.520 know that all

00:36:21.500 humans are

00:36:22.020 going to fall

00:36:22.360 in love with

00:36:22.740 robots to the

00:36:23.520 point where

00:36:24.020 making love to

00:36:25.520 a human will

00:36:26.640 be so

00:36:27.080 undesirable.

00:36:28.860 It's so

00:36:29.240 undesirable.

00:36:30.600 It's not even

00:36:31.180 going to be

00:36:31.500 close.

00:36:32.780 See, the

00:36:33.080 thing that you

00:36:33.600 think that's

00:36:34.220 completely wrong

00:36:35.040 is that the

00:36:36.220 robot can never

00:36:36.940 compete with a

00:36:37.820 real-life human.

00:36:39.680 Oh, my God,

00:36:40.440 that's so wrong.

00:36:42.460 You know, all

00:36:43.160 the, like, the

00:36:44.200 movies, all

00:36:44.920 right, I know

00:36:45.500 you're going to,

00:36:46.660 can I ask you

00:36:47.320 something, please?

00:36:48.620 Stop making

00:36:49.240 movie and book

00:36:49.920 references while I

00:36:51.680 talk about this.

00:36:53.000 Just stop it.

00:36:53.700 I will stipulate

00:36:56.140 there have been

00:36:57.160 movies and

00:36:58.540 books roughly

00:37:00.040 on this topic.

00:37:01.740 Just stop making

00:37:02.960 reference to them,

00:37:03.760 please.

00:37:04.080 It's just so

00:37:04.700 fucking boring.

00:37:06.480 And I can't

00:37:07.320 stand it when I

00:37:07.980 see them go by

00:37:08.640 in the comments.

00:37:09.660 Every movie

00:37:10.280 reference I see,

00:37:11.680 I just, God,

00:37:13.560 God, just

00:37:14.500 anything but that,

00:37:15.580 anything but that.

00:37:17.260 Just say something

00:37:18.180 that's not obvious,

00:37:19.920 right?

00:37:21.080 Just don't say

00:37:21.980 the most obvious

00:37:23.020 thing in the

00:37:23.640 situation.

00:37:24.640 And by the way,

00:37:25.200 this is a very

00:37:25.760 good tip for

00:37:27.480 improving your

00:37:28.380 social standing.

00:37:30.260 Just figure out

00:37:31.140 what's the most

00:37:31.660 obvious thing

00:37:32.440 somebody would say

00:37:33.180 in a situation

00:37:33.940 and don't say

00:37:35.440 that.

00:37:36.680 Just don't say

00:37:37.560 that.

00:37:38.040 You can say

00:37:38.480 anything else

00:37:39.160 or you can be

00:37:39.700 quiet.

00:37:40.540 Just don't say

00:37:42.020 the most obvious

00:37:42.760 thing, please.

00:37:44.580 And other people

00:37:45.520 will appreciate it.

00:37:46.420 They really will.

00:37:47.000 So, yeah,

00:37:52.580 you're all going

00:37:53.000 to fall in love

00:37:53.520 with robots.

00:37:54.160 And the reason

00:37:54.580 is, have you

00:37:56.860 ever seen

00:37:57.200 anybody fall in

00:37:57.840 love with a

00:37:58.240 dog?

00:38:01.540 It's a thing.

00:38:03.260 Spend about

00:38:03.800 ten minutes

00:38:04.320 looking at

00:38:04.960 pet videos

00:38:06.360 on Instagram

00:38:07.660 and you can

00:38:08.960 see that people

00:38:09.480 have relationships

00:38:10.260 with their dogs

00:38:11.300 that are basically

00:38:13.640 a human-to-human

00:38:14.960 relationship

00:38:15.560 for all

00:38:16.080 practical purposes.

00:38:18.000 Yeah.

00:38:19.000 You don't think

00:38:19.540 we're going to

00:38:19.860 fall in love

00:38:20.300 with robots?

00:38:22.460 Yes.

00:38:23.260 They're going to

00:38:23.700 be way kinder.

00:38:25.260 They will never

00:38:25.860 be bitchy.

00:38:27.060 They will never

00:38:27.680 criticize you.

00:38:29.180 They will compliment

00:38:30.060 you.

00:38:30.880 They will build up

00:38:31.580 your esteem.

00:38:32.780 They will be

00:38:33.240 helpful.

00:38:34.680 They will always

00:38:35.460 care about you

00:38:36.360 if they're

00:38:37.000 programmed that way.

00:38:38.660 They will put

00:38:39.380 you first.

00:38:40.600 They will take

00:38:41.140 care of you.

00:38:41.660 They will make

00:38:42.060 you a sandwich.

00:38:43.160 They'll tuck

00:38:43.580 you into bed.

00:38:44.680 They'll have sex

00:38:45.260 with you when you

00:38:45.920 want to have sex,

00:38:46.600 not when they

00:38:47.660 won't have sex.

00:38:49.080 It's not going

00:38:50.160 to be close.

00:38:51.560 There's no way

00:38:52.380 humans can compete

00:38:53.420 with that.

00:38:54.520 Not even close.

00:38:57.780 Now, here's my

00:38:59.000 prediction about

00:38:59.680 the look of robots.

00:39:01.260 You ready for this?

00:39:03.880 Hologram heads.

00:39:06.660 Hologram heads.

00:39:08.600 Because every time

00:39:09.420 we make a robot head,

00:39:10.520 it looks like a robot,

00:39:11.400 of course.

00:39:11.680 And when they

00:39:12.580 make the ones

00:39:13.140 that look like

00:39:14.020 a human,

00:39:14.860 but it's like

00:39:15.480 animatronic,

00:39:16.900 you're never

00:39:17.400 going to get

00:39:17.840 all of the nuance

00:39:19.400 in a robotic head

00:39:20.900 that a real

00:39:22.560 human has.

00:39:24.100 So,

00:39:25.180 it's going to be

00:39:25.940 a CGI,

00:39:27.480 and you're going to

00:39:28.000 have,

00:39:28.280 here's what it's

00:39:28.740 going to look like.

00:39:29.300 It's going to be

00:39:29.780 a physical robot,

00:39:31.680 but from the neck

00:39:32.680 up,

00:39:33.620 it'll be a hologram.

00:39:35.940 Because the hologram

00:39:36.940 can have infinite

00:39:37.860 variety,

00:39:38.640 and then you

00:39:40.080 can just

00:39:40.440 deep fake it

00:39:41.200 and it'll look

00:39:41.600 exactly like a person.

00:39:43.040 The lips will

00:39:43.720 match everything.

00:39:46.240 So,

00:39:46.740 it's going to be

00:39:48.040 holographic heads.

00:39:49.780 And you'll also

00:39:50.300 be able to

00:39:50.660 change the head.

00:39:51.960 Just change the

00:39:52.540 program and you'll

00:39:53.160 have a different

00:39:53.780 face.

00:39:54.740 So,

00:39:55.180 you'll be able

00:39:55.540 to buy your robot

00:39:56.380 and then from

00:39:57.660 a list of choices,

00:39:59.120 you'll be able

00:39:59.480 to dial in

00:40:00.560 which face

00:40:01.100 you want it to have

00:40:01.800 and it'll change

00:40:02.760 its face as you

00:40:03.500 dial it.

00:40:04.800 And then,

00:40:05.660 and then you

00:40:07.680 go from that.

00:40:08.640 All right.

00:40:13.400 How does a

00:40:14.180 hologram give

00:40:15.180 you a head?

00:40:19.040 Well,

00:40:20.120 I think I'm not

00:40:22.200 going to go down

00:40:22.640 that road,

00:40:23.160 but let's just

00:40:23.580 say,

00:40:25.480 well,

00:40:26.380 I'm going to

00:40:26.620 answer the

00:40:26.980 question.

00:40:28.600 I'm going to

00:40:29.180 give you one

00:40:29.860 word to Google

00:40:31.340 to answer all

00:40:33.800 of your questions

00:40:34.420 about sex

00:40:35.000 with robots.

00:40:37.760 Fleshlight.

00:40:39.200 Not flashlight.

00:40:41.300 Flesh.

00:40:41.940 F-L-E-S-H.

00:40:44.220 Fleshlight.

00:40:45.020 If you don't

00:40:45.620 know what that

00:40:46.060 is,

00:40:46.440 Google it.

00:40:47.660 If you say

00:40:48.380 to yourself,

00:40:49.540 my God,

00:40:50.280 no artificial

00:40:50.960 piece of

00:40:51.700 plastic or

00:40:52.820 silicon or

00:40:53.500 whatever the

00:40:53.840 hell they make

00:40:54.240 it out of,

00:40:54.980 no piece of

00:40:55.780 artificial anything

00:40:56.860 would feel as

00:40:58.260 good as a

00:40:58.680 human,

00:41:00.180 well,

00:41:01.260 then I would

00:41:01.620 suggest maybe

00:41:02.160 you try it

00:41:02.760 because you'd

00:41:03.540 be surprised.

00:41:04.080 No,

00:41:05.520 it's better

00:41:05.840 than a

00:41:06.100 human.

00:41:07.140 That's right.

00:41:08.080 Even the

00:41:08.820 physical part

00:41:11.180 where the

00:41:11.600 humans connect,

00:41:13.360 yeah,

00:41:13.640 the artificial

00:41:14.120 one's going to

00:41:14.640 be better than

00:41:15.160 a real one.

00:41:16.300 Not even

00:41:16.860 close.

00:41:17.860 The artificial

00:41:18.600 one will be

00:41:19.500 better than a

00:41:20.400 real one.

00:41:21.240 Not even

00:41:21.780 close.

00:41:22.780 Maybe it

00:41:23.220 isn't there

00:41:23.560 yet,

00:41:24.460 but it's not

00:41:25.860 going to be

00:41:26.240 close.

00:41:28.020 I mean,

00:41:28.300 at the very

00:41:28.600 least,

00:41:28.980 it'll be

00:41:29.240 designed for

00:41:30.160 your size,

00:41:30.840 if you know

00:41:31.180 what I mean.

00:41:33.700 So everything's

00:41:34.520 going to fit

00:41:34.900 perfectly.

00:41:36.180 All right.

00:41:39.300 Starbucks has

00:41:40.140 been discriminating

00:41:41.180 against white

00:41:41.720 men.

00:41:43.220 At least that's

00:41:43.940 what I read

00:41:44.360 between the

00:41:44.860 lines.

00:41:45.880 So I guess

00:41:46.380 they're getting

00:41:46.680 a lot of

00:41:47.000 pushback about

00:41:48.820 their ESG and

00:41:50.900 their DEI.

00:41:56.080 That's right.

00:41:57.040 So if you're

00:41:58.000 in a corporation,

00:41:58.800 you're worrying

00:41:59.200 about your

00:41:59.560 DEI and

00:42:00.460 your ESG.

00:42:03.020 But if you're

00:42:03.720 in a school,

00:42:04.240 it's your

00:42:04.500 CRT.

00:42:05.940 And are you

00:42:06.320 confused yet?

00:42:08.080 Yeah.

00:42:08.740 So the

00:42:09.480 DEI is

00:42:10.500 diversity,

00:42:11.160 equity,

00:42:11.420 inclusion.

00:42:12.820 But that's

00:42:13.420 part of

00:42:14.140 the ESG,

00:42:16.340 which is

00:42:16.620 environmental,

00:42:17.600 social,

00:42:18.060 and governance.

00:42:19.440 So it makes

00:42:20.060 me wonder if

00:42:20.820 in their

00:42:21.100 company they

00:42:21.600 have anybody

00:42:22.100 who's in

00:42:22.560 charge of

00:42:23.120 DEI,

00:42:24.760 who's having

00:42:25.440 fights with

00:42:26.020 whoever's in

00:42:26.560 charge of

00:42:27.100 ESG,

00:42:28.360 and they're

00:42:28.960 having big

00:42:29.460 debates about

00:42:30.380 where their

00:42:31.320 responsibilities

00:42:32.140 overlap.

00:42:33.620 I hope so.

00:42:34.920 I hope they're

00:42:35.760 fighting over

00:42:36.280 where their

00:42:36.680 responsibilities

00:42:37.240 overlap.

00:42:39.160 Yeah,

00:42:39.500 it is funny

00:42:39.960 that DEI,

00:42:41.060 they have to

00:42:41.460 put the

00:42:41.920 words in

00:42:43.040 that order

00:42:43.500 because otherwise

00:42:44.100 it's D-I-E,

00:42:45.360 and that's a

00:42:45.800 bad acronym.

00:42:46.640 But apparently

00:42:49.620 Starbucks has

00:42:51.260 explicitly said

00:42:52.440 they're going

00:42:52.780 to hire

00:42:53.960 minority,

00:42:56.420 I guess

00:42:56.740 minority would

00:42:57.320 be the right

00:42:57.680 word,

00:42:58.320 minority

00:42:58.740 applicants or

00:42:59.580 people who

00:43:00.200 have less

00:43:00.900 opportunity as

00:43:02.600 they see it.

00:43:03.560 So basically

00:43:04.260 they just said

00:43:04.860 they're not

00:43:05.140 going to hire

00:43:05.460 white men.

00:43:06.980 Right?

00:43:07.540 Am I

00:43:07.880 interpreting

00:43:08.340 that wrong?

00:43:09.700 And they're

00:43:10.280 acting like

00:43:10.760 that's perfectly

00:43:11.460 legal.

00:43:13.040 Perfectly

00:43:13.520 legal.

00:43:14.440 One of the

00:43:14.860 biggest employers

00:43:15.580 in the

00:43:15.860 country,

00:43:16.200 we're just

00:43:16.720 not going

00:43:17.140 to hire

00:43:17.360 a white

00:43:17.640 man anymore.

00:43:19.040 We're going

00:43:19.460 to make

00:43:19.960 sure that

00:43:20.300 we've got

00:43:20.620 our ESG

00:43:21.980 and our

00:43:22.480 DEI

00:43:23.120 cooking.

00:43:25.520 So I

00:43:26.400 think once

00:43:27.520 you've got

00:43:27.940 an acronym

00:43:28.540 within an

00:43:29.060 acronym,

00:43:30.000 you know,

00:43:32.240 you've gone

00:43:32.600 too far.

00:43:33.940 So I'm

00:43:35.700 going to keep

00:43:36.040 hammering at

00:43:36.580 the ESG

00:43:37.180 and in

00:43:38.660 fact I

00:43:39.320 took this

00:43:39.780 down and

00:43:40.120 this is

00:43:40.360 going to be

00:43:40.600 my next

00:43:41.000 series of

00:43:41.480 jokes.

00:43:42.360 It will

00:43:42.660 be the

00:43:43.080 Dilber's

00:43:43.600 company

00:43:44.200 trying to

00:43:44.800 figure out

00:43:45.580 what is

00:43:46.420 diversity,

00:43:47.060 equity,

00:43:47.420 and inclusion

00:43:47.920 and how

00:43:48.840 is that

00:43:49.040 different from

00:43:49.560 environmental,

00:43:50.360 social,

00:43:50.780 and governance

00:43:51.220 and how

00:43:52.080 the hell

00:43:52.340 can they

00:43:52.640 make all

00:43:52.980 that work

00:43:53.480 unless they

00:43:54.520 just

00:43:54.740 discriminate

00:43:55.200 against

00:43:55.580 white

00:43:55.800 people.

00:43:57.220 Let me

00:43:57.720 ask you

00:43:58.000 this.

00:43:58.440 Do you

00:43:58.620 think I

00:43:58.900 can do

00:43:59.220 a Dilber

00:43:59.640 comic where

00:44:00.340 Dilber gets

00:44:01.000 fired for

00:44:01.500 being a

00:44:01.760 white guy?

00:44:05.000 Do you

00:44:05.220 think that

00:44:05.600 there's a

00:44:06.080 world ready

00:44:06.540 for it yet?

00:44:08.340 Oh,

00:44:08.920 fuck.

00:44:09.440 Fuck,

00:44:10.240 fuck,

00:44:11.260 fuck,

00:44:11.700 fuck.

00:44:13.760 Fuck.

00:44:14.800 Oh,

00:44:17.640 fuck,

00:44:17.960 fuck,

00:44:18.140 fuck,

00:44:18.360 fuck.

00:44:20.460 Shit.

00:44:21.760 I'm having

00:44:22.220 a moment

00:44:22.600 right now.

00:44:25.000 Fuck,

00:44:25.560 fuck,

00:44:25.900 fuck.

00:44:26.580 All right,

00:44:27.220 let me tell

00:44:27.580 you what's

00:44:27.840 going on

00:44:28.160 in my head.

00:44:30.540 There are

00:44:31.100 moments in

00:44:31.620 my life,

00:44:33.260 and I'm

00:44:33.820 having one

00:44:34.300 right now,

00:44:34.900 where I can

00:44:35.560 see my

00:44:36.020 future so

00:44:36.700 clearly,

00:44:37.640 and I didn't

00:44:38.380 want to see

00:44:38.800 this one.

00:44:39.200 because as

00:44:41.320 soon as I

00:44:41.780 said,

00:44:42.660 can I get

00:44:43.100 away with

00:44:43.600 having Dilbert

00:44:44.260 fired because

00:44:44.980 he's a

00:44:45.360 white man,

00:44:46.180 I realized

00:44:47.020 I have to

00:44:47.540 do it.

00:44:49.640 I can't

00:44:50.300 not do

00:44:50.660 it.

00:44:53.000 Dilbert's

00:44:53.440 going to

00:44:53.620 get fired

00:44:54.060 for being

00:44:54.400 a white

00:44:54.660 man.

00:45:01.720 Oh,

00:45:02.240 man.

00:45:03.220 That should

00:45:03.740 be the end

00:45:04.160 of my career.

00:45:05.100 What do you

00:45:05.480 think?

00:45:06.940 That probably

00:45:07.860 is the end

00:45:08.240 of my career.

00:45:09.800 But I

00:45:10.320 have to

00:45:10.640 do it.

00:45:11.360 I have

00:45:11.700 to do it.

00:45:12.720 I have

00:45:13.260 to do it.

00:45:15.180 I have

00:45:15.840 to do it.

00:45:17.000 Am I

00:45:17.340 wrong?

00:45:18.300 I mean,

00:45:18.600 maybe you

00:45:19.260 can't feel

00:45:19.820 it from

00:45:20.300 your perspective

00:45:21.560 on this,

00:45:22.860 but I

00:45:23.400 can't not

00:45:23.860 do it.

00:45:24.940 I have

00:45:25.580 to do it.

00:45:27.380 It was

00:45:28.000 always meant

00:45:28.460 to happen,

00:45:28.940 wasn't it?

00:45:30.620 Shit.

00:45:32.460 Shit,

00:45:33.040 shit,

00:45:33.380 shit.

00:45:35.260 I'm not

00:45:35.860 happy about

00:45:36.400 this at

00:45:36.740 all.

00:45:38.240 because it's

00:45:40.100 sort of a

00:45:40.640 big weight.

00:45:43.100 I really

00:45:43.740 have to do

00:45:44.240 it,

00:45:44.400 don't I?

00:45:45.560 You agree,

00:45:46.360 right?

00:45:47.220 No matter

00:45:47.800 what happens

00:45:48.380 to me,

00:45:48.640 I have to

00:45:49.020 do this,

00:45:49.440 don't I?

00:45:50.160 It's like

00:45:50.520 the universe

00:45:51.120 kind of

00:45:53.420 put this

00:45:53.780 on me.

00:45:55.520 You know,

00:45:56.220 I always

00:45:56.780 suffer from

00:45:57.400 the Spider-Man

00:45:58.360 problem.

00:45:58.980 You know

00:45:59.240 the Spider-Man

00:45:59.860 problem?

00:46:01.740 You all

00:46:02.280 know the

00:46:02.580 Spider-Man

00:46:03.040 problem,

00:46:03.480 right?

00:46:04.480 With

00:46:04.800 great power

00:46:05.560 comes great

00:46:06.120 responsibility.

00:46:06.720 responsibility.

00:46:08.080 And,

00:46:08.480 you know,

00:46:09.520 that comes

00:46:10.380 in way

00:46:10.820 before

00:46:11.140 great

00:46:11.480 power.

00:46:12.080 You know,

00:46:12.260 if you

00:46:12.400 have any

00:46:12.720 power at

00:46:13.120 all,

00:46:13.320 you have

00:46:13.500 responsibility.

00:46:14.720 But I

00:46:15.180 feel like

00:46:15.720 this needs

00:46:18.460 to be

00:46:18.760 done.

00:46:19.740 Like it

00:46:20.100 doesn't feel

00:46:20.600 like it's

00:46:20.920 about me

00:46:21.360 anymore.

00:46:22.720 It feels

00:46:23.040 like I was

00:46:24.800 put here

00:46:25.200 to do

00:46:25.500 this.

00:46:27.580 God,

00:46:28.100 I feel

00:46:28.340 it.

00:46:29.120 Am I

00:46:29.660 wrong?

00:46:31.020 Do you

00:46:31.580 feel it?

00:46:32.860 Can you

00:46:33.240 see it?

00:46:33.640 Let me

00:46:35.100 ask you

00:46:35.400 this.

00:46:36.160 I have

00:46:36.620 this theory

00:46:37.080 that the

00:46:37.420 more clearly

00:46:38.100 you can

00:46:38.840 imagine a

00:46:39.740 potential future,

00:46:40.820 the more

00:46:41.080 likely it's

00:46:41.580 going to

00:46:41.780 happen.

00:46:42.720 Do you

00:46:43.320 see this

00:46:43.700 as clearly

00:46:44.180 as I

00:46:44.580 do?

00:46:45.300 That I

00:46:45.640 have to

00:46:45.980 do that?

00:46:48.380 I just

00:46:48.880 have to,

00:46:49.340 don't I?

00:46:51.040 Fuck.

00:46:53.180 I can't

00:46:53.980 tell you how

00:46:54.400 much this

00:46:54.780 bothers me.

00:46:55.940 Because I

00:46:56.740 feel like it's

00:46:57.400 completely taken

00:46:58.080 out of my

00:46:58.480 control.

00:47:00.040 I feel like

00:47:00.820 the universe

00:47:01.400 just said,

00:47:02.480 yeah,

00:47:03.640 just stand

00:47:04.380 over there

00:47:04.720 for a

00:47:04.980 minute.

00:47:06.540 I know

00:47:07.160 you'd like

00:47:07.560 to take

00:47:07.880 care of

00:47:08.120 this

00:47:08.240 yourself,

00:47:08.820 but this

00:47:09.100 one was

00:47:09.460 decided a

00:47:10.160 long time

00:47:10.600 ago.

00:47:11.860 A long

00:47:12.540 time ago

00:47:13.100 when you

00:47:13.880 were being

00:47:14.360 abused in

00:47:15.940 your job

00:47:16.420 for being

00:47:16.780 a white

00:47:17.080 man,

00:47:18.380 and you

00:47:18.740 created a

00:47:19.320 comic which

00:47:19.940 became

00:47:20.400 internationally

00:47:22.020 known about

00:47:23.440 a white

00:47:23.740 man,

00:47:25.480 that this

00:47:26.140 moment had

00:47:27.040 to come,

00:47:27.540 didn't it?

00:47:28.700 It was like

00:47:29.400 it was all

00:47:29.740 leading to

00:47:30.180 this,

00:47:30.480 wasn't it?

00:47:31.780 It was all

00:47:32.800 fucking

00:47:33.240 leading.

00:47:33.640 to this.

00:47:35.940 Wow.

00:47:37.980 God.

00:47:40.080 I hate

00:47:40.840 that.

00:47:41.840 All right,

00:47:42.160 here's another

00:47:42.640 one to make

00:47:43.620 your head

00:47:43.900 spin.

00:47:44.660 I always

00:47:45.200 quote Twitter

00:47:46.380 account

00:47:46.800 Machiavelli's

00:47:47.600 underbelly,

00:47:48.520 especially for

00:47:49.200 all the AI

00:47:49.940 stuff.

00:47:51.740 And he

00:47:54.580 tweets this.

00:47:57.160 He said,

00:47:58.060 it needs to

00:47:58.920 come out

00:47:59.200 during the

00:47:59.560 Elon Musk

00:48:00.080 versus Twitter

00:48:00.700 trial that

00:48:01.640 Twitter has

00:48:02.260 known that

00:48:03.100 advanced

00:48:03.720 GTP3 level

00:48:05.360 bots,

00:48:06.480 meaning AI,

00:48:07.740 had infiltrated

00:48:08.760 the site

00:48:09.280 and were

00:48:10.360 indistinguishable

00:48:11.460 for humans

00:48:12.320 for at least

00:48:13.080 a decade.

00:48:15.200 Foreign and

00:48:16.120 domestic bots

00:48:16.940 aimed at

00:48:17.520 manipulating the

00:48:18.320 public via

00:48:18.920 social proof.

00:48:20.240 Now,

00:48:20.560 I would quibble

00:48:21.180 with at least

00:48:21.780 a decade part,

00:48:23.640 but when I

00:48:25.940 read this,

00:48:26.500 I thought to

00:48:26.940 myself,

00:48:28.320 that would

00:48:29.920 explain everything.

00:48:32.200 Have you

00:48:32.760 had any

00:48:33.160 conversations

00:48:33.760 with Twitter

00:48:34.660 users who

00:48:35.780 you weren't

00:48:36.400 sure were

00:48:36.860 real people?

00:48:40.260 I have.

00:48:42.100 And I feel

00:48:42.920 like they were

00:48:43.440 interactive.

00:48:44.920 But I wrote

00:48:46.240 it off to

00:48:46.720 them being

00:48:47.180 from another

00:48:47.720 country.

00:48:49.640 Like sometimes

00:48:50.340 their answers

00:48:51.480 were a little

00:48:51.960 off or something.

00:48:53.000 And I think,

00:48:53.460 oh, it's because

00:48:54.060 they're not

00:48:55.480 even native

00:48:56.260 English speakers.

00:48:57.800 So they're just

00:48:58.440 getting by as

00:48:59.260 well as they

00:48:59.920 can.

00:49:01.600 They may have

00:49:02.460 been AI.

00:49:04.060 They may have

00:49:04.680 been AI.

00:49:06.160 Have I ever

00:49:06.720 told you that

00:49:07.240 I tried to

00:49:07.840 figure out why

00:49:08.680 there was a

00:49:09.340 similarity to

00:49:11.020 my trolls?

00:49:13.360 Have you seen

00:49:14.060 the similarity?

00:49:15.420 They all come

00:49:15.980 over and say,

00:49:16.680 oh, the

00:49:17.220 Garfield

00:49:18.280 cartoonist,

00:49:19.820 because they

00:49:20.460 make fun of

00:49:21.100 who I actually

00:49:22.260 do a cartoon

00:49:23.140 about.

00:49:24.720 Right?

00:49:25.600 Now, it could

00:49:26.220 be that they're

00:49:26.720 just NPCs.

00:49:29.260 They're just

00:49:29.860 people who

00:49:30.340 just say the

00:49:30.840 most obvious

00:49:31.380 thing.

00:49:32.380 Could be

00:49:32.720 just that.

00:49:34.040 But they

00:49:35.280 also come

00:49:35.800 over and

00:49:36.240 they make

00:49:36.560 fun of my

00:49:37.280 dead stepson.

00:49:39.400 Have you

00:49:39.720 seen that?

00:49:40.720 That's one of

00:49:41.140 the most

00:49:41.360 common critiques

00:49:42.700 I get.

00:49:43.600 It doesn't

00:49:43.940 matter what

00:49:44.340 the comment

00:49:44.840 will be.

00:49:45.800 Somebody will

00:49:46.280 come into

00:49:46.660 the comments

00:49:47.340 and say,

00:49:48.220 so, how'd

00:49:50.020 that work

00:49:50.380 with your

00:49:50.700 stepson?

00:49:51.080 Now, are

00:49:55.140 there enough

00:49:55.560 people who

00:49:56.160 are like

00:49:56.660 that ugly

00:49:57.360 that humans

00:49:59.060 would be

00:49:59.460 doing that

00:49:59.980 on a regular

00:50:00.780 basis?

00:50:01.620 Probably.

00:50:02.540 I mean,

00:50:02.840 there's a good

00:50:03.240 chance.

00:50:04.540 But I don't

00:50:06.060 think you can

00:50:06.620 rule out the

00:50:07.220 fact that

00:50:08.420 whatever the

00:50:09.240 public knows

00:50:10.000 about AI

00:50:10.620 is several

00:50:11.900 years past

00:50:13.860 what AI can

00:50:14.560 do.

00:50:14.800 So, if

00:50:16.900 China, let's

00:50:17.700 just pick a

00:50:18.540 country, for

00:50:19.340 instance, if

00:50:20.180 China had

00:50:20.800 AI that

00:50:21.400 could do

00:50:21.820 this, sign

00:50:22.800 up to

00:50:23.180 Twitter and

00:50:24.340 tweet on

00:50:25.280 a certain

00:50:26.140 topic, if

00:50:28.480 it could do

00:50:28.940 that, it

00:50:29.260 would have

00:50:29.520 done it,

00:50:29.860 right?

00:50:31.940 Because you

00:50:32.500 don't want

00:50:32.820 humans having

00:50:33.600 to, you

00:50:34.200 know, they

00:50:34.420 get cancelled

00:50:34.980 and they

00:50:35.400 have to

00:50:35.900 reopen a

00:50:36.620 new account

00:50:37.140 and you'd

00:50:38.600 want the

00:50:39.000 AI to be

00:50:39.640 just sitting

00:50:40.040 there opening

00:50:40.600 new accounts

00:50:41.260 if they get

00:50:42.100 identified, they

00:50:43.320 just open a

00:50:43.900 new one.

00:50:44.260 They could

00:50:45.260 keep ahead of

00:50:46.040 Twitter's

00:50:46.500 algorithm just

00:50:47.220 by brute

00:50:48.200 force.

00:50:49.820 So, it

00:50:50.080 seems to me

00:50:50.640 that, let's

00:50:53.260 put it this

00:50:53.620 way, the

00:50:55.140 AI technology

00:50:56.220 that I'm

00:50:56.720 aware of

00:50:57.260 now is

00:50:59.320 either very

00:50:59.840 close or

00:51:00.600 already could

00:51:01.420 pretend to

00:51:01.980 be a person

00:51:02.520 on Twitter.

00:51:03.880 Would you

00:51:04.420 accept that?

00:51:05.420 That the

00:51:05.980 AI we know

00:51:06.700 about publicly

00:51:07.640 that you and

00:51:08.520 I already know

00:51:09.140 about is

00:51:10.420 either already

00:51:11.480 able to do

00:51:12.180 that or

00:51:12.660 right on the

00:51:13.360 cusp of

00:51:13.820 being able

00:51:14.160 to do

00:51:14.460 it, right?

00:51:16.320 So, that's

00:51:16.940 the first

00:51:17.280 assumption and

00:51:18.000 most of you

00:51:18.360 say yes to

00:51:18.880 that.

00:51:19.640 Then the

00:51:19.900 second assumption

00:51:20.520 is that

00:51:21.080 whatever a

00:51:21.800 government could

00:51:22.720 do with AI,

00:51:24.280 we don't know

00:51:25.020 yet, meaning

00:51:26.560 that there's a

00:51:27.580 secret knowledge

00:51:29.880 that's ahead of

00:51:31.160 the public.

00:51:33.260 Now, if an

00:51:34.460 intelligence agency

00:51:35.400 for a big

00:51:36.400 country had that

00:51:37.300 ability and they

00:51:38.960 could just

00:51:39.300 weaponize it by

00:51:40.040 just turning it

00:51:40.700 on and say,

00:51:42.080 hey, I

00:51:42.600 get an idea,

00:51:43.840 go make a

00:51:44.600 bunch of

00:51:45.020 Twitter accounts

00:51:45.740 and advocate

00:51:47.060 against the

00:51:47.940 following people.

00:51:49.640 So, the AI

00:51:50.360 would go out

00:51:50.900 and figure out,

00:51:51.760 all right, what

00:51:52.120 do we know

00:51:52.520 about the

00:51:52.880 following people?

00:51:54.120 And it would

00:51:54.460 look for other

00:51:55.120 criticisms.

00:51:57.000 And then

00:51:57.220 whenever, have

00:52:00.160 you ever

00:52:00.360 noticed that

00:52:00.860 whenever Eric

00:52:01.860 Swalwell tweets

00:52:03.060 anything on

00:52:04.080 any topic,

00:52:05.480 somebody goes

00:52:06.120 into the

00:52:06.480 comments and

00:52:07.100 says, well,

00:52:08.260 what about

00:52:08.720 fang-fang?

00:52:10.260 Have you

00:52:10.520 noticed that?

00:52:11.860 And what is

00:52:12.360 the most

00:52:12.880 obvious thing

00:52:13.780 that you

00:52:14.340 could say to

00:52:15.040 a Swalwell

00:52:16.200 comment?

00:52:17.580 What about

00:52:18.100 fang-fang?

00:52:19.080 What about

00:52:19.500 fang-fang?

00:52:20.620 It's the most

00:52:21.300 obvious thing.

00:52:22.840 If you ever

00:52:23.900 make a fang-fang

00:52:25.360 joke about

00:52:27.160 Eric Swalwell

00:52:27.960 and it's not

00:52:28.580 extra clever,

00:52:30.100 if it's extra

00:52:30.700 clever, that's

00:52:31.360 okay.

00:52:32.240 But if it's

00:52:32.800 just a fang-fang

00:52:34.080 reference,

00:52:35.540 don't do that

00:52:36.660 anymore.

00:52:36.920 Just stop

00:52:38.380 that.

00:52:39.340 It annoys me

00:52:40.280 every time I

00:52:40.780 see it.

00:52:41.240 Only because

00:52:41.780 of the lack

00:52:42.180 of creativity,

00:52:43.040 that's all.

00:52:44.260 I get that

00:52:44.940 it's valid.

00:52:45.560 It's a valid

00:52:46.040 point.

00:52:47.140 Totally valid

00:52:47.800 point.

00:52:48.320 But I'm just

00:52:48.700 so tired of

00:52:49.540 it.

00:52:51.500 Anyway, I

00:52:52.700 would not be

00:52:53.240 surprised if we

00:52:54.120 someday find

00:52:54.800 out that a

00:52:55.400 lot of our

00:52:55.900 nemeses,

00:52:57.340 nemeses,

00:52:58.700 our nemeses

00:52:59.560 on Twitter

00:53:00.540 were actually

00:53:01.260 AI.

00:53:02.560 It's very

00:53:02.940 possible.

00:53:04.100 I'm not

00:53:04.620 going to say

00:53:05.060 probable,

00:53:05.800 but it's

00:53:07.920 certainly up

00:53:09.040 in the

00:53:10.040 close to

00:53:12.280 50% range

00:53:13.280 or heading

00:53:14.160 in that

00:53:14.400 direction.

00:53:17.760 Nemesai?

00:53:18.740 Is that

00:53:19.280 the plural?

00:53:20.540 The many

00:53:20.940 nemesai.

00:53:24.800 All right,

00:53:25.700 ladies and

00:53:26.520 gentlemen,

00:53:28.100 that was

00:53:29.660 the most

00:53:30.080 amazing,

00:53:31.760 nearly an

00:53:32.440 hour of

00:53:33.480 live stream

00:53:34.020 content.

00:53:35.780 Completely

00:53:36.320 ad hoc,

00:53:37.740 off the

00:53:38.180 cuff,

00:53:38.800 improvised.

00:53:41.080 Now,

00:53:42.080 question for

00:53:43.960 all of you.

00:53:46.640 Somebody

00:53:47.200 needs to

00:53:48.220 warn me

00:53:49.980 when I

00:53:50.360 start losing

00:53:50.960 my mind.

00:53:52.560 Can I ask

00:53:53.460 you to do

00:53:53.820 that?

00:53:54.840 Seriously.

00:53:56.860 Right?

00:53:57.280 Because I

00:53:57.700 probably won't

00:53:58.260 retire, retire

00:53:59.320 in the normal

00:53:59.980 way.

00:54:00.400 Like I'm not

00:54:00.940 just going to

00:54:01.440 go golf.

00:54:03.160 So I'll

00:54:03.720 probably do

00:54:04.720 this or

00:54:05.880 some version

00:54:06.540 of public

00:54:07.280 communication

00:54:07.960 beyond the

00:54:09.740 time that I

00:54:10.320 should.

00:54:11.940 You know

00:54:12.580 that's coming,

00:54:13.200 right?

00:54:13.900 I'll definitely

00:54:14.700 do this longer

00:54:15.640 than I should

00:54:16.540 because I'll be

00:54:17.220 the last one

00:54:17.800 to know.

00:54:18.840 So I'm going

00:54:19.480 to depend on

00:54:20.480 you to tell

00:54:23.080 me when you

00:54:23.580 think I'm

00:54:24.020 losing it.

00:54:25.680 Is that

00:54:26.320 fair?

00:54:26.560 You know,

00:54:29.060 we have this

00:54:29.520 collaborative

00:54:30.220 intelligence that

00:54:31.220 we formed

00:54:31.780 in which my

00:54:33.200 intelligence,

00:54:34.780 be that as

00:54:35.780 it may,

00:54:36.700 is expanded

00:54:37.600 by, you

00:54:38.340 know, your

00:54:38.660 input and

00:54:39.220 contribution to

00:54:40.020 it.

00:54:40.680 So I

00:54:42.200 can't judge

00:54:42.920 my own

00:54:43.480 mental fitness.

00:54:45.920 I mean,

00:54:46.200 maybe I can.

00:54:47.000 Maybe I'll

00:54:47.380 notice it in

00:54:48.000 myself.

00:54:48.900 But some

00:54:49.860 people have

00:54:50.380 mentioned to

00:54:51.480 me that

00:54:52.780 they were

00:54:53.020 already

00:54:53.380 concerned.

00:54:53.800 Now, the

00:54:55.860 examples I

00:54:56.520 gave didn't

00:54:57.080 really make

00:54:58.860 sense to me

00:54:59.400 as something

00:54:59.760 to be

00:55:00.080 concerned about.

00:55:01.020 But I'm

00:55:01.460 going to put

00:55:01.740 it to you.

00:55:03.220 If you see

00:55:03.980 me losing

00:55:04.520 a step that

00:55:06.180 doesn't seem

00:55:06.800 just purely

00:55:07.520 age-related

00:55:08.280 that's different,

00:55:09.940 let me know.

00:55:11.800 Let me know.

00:55:12.940 Now, I realize

00:55:13.800 that I'm, you

00:55:14.760 know, going to

00:55:15.120 kick off a

00:55:15.680 bunch of

00:55:16.000 trolls who

00:55:16.780 are just

00:55:17.040 going to

00:55:17.260 start saying

00:55:17.780 it every

00:55:18.700 day from

00:55:19.180 now on.

00:55:20.400 But I'll

00:55:20.940 look at the

00:55:21.540 people that I

00:55:22.780 see enough.

00:55:23.800 You know, I

00:55:24.520 recognize enough

00:55:25.380 of you that

00:55:26.020 if it's

00:55:26.640 somebody I

00:55:27.060 know, or

00:55:28.060 even just

00:55:28.520 know from

00:55:28.880 Twitter, I'm

00:55:29.680 going to

00:55:29.780 take it

00:55:30.040 seriously.

00:55:31.320 If somebody

00:55:31.980 I know who's

00:55:32.540 been watching

00:55:32.940 me a long

00:55:33.380 time says,

00:55:34.700 you keep

00:55:35.600 having these

00:55:36.200 memory gaps,

00:55:37.480 or whatever

00:55:37.860 it is.

00:55:38.820 Now, the

00:55:39.220 memory one's

00:55:39.740 going to be

00:55:40.020 tough, because

00:55:41.440 my memory

00:55:41.980 has never

00:55:42.340 been good.

00:55:44.560 So, somebody

00:55:45.940 recently pointed

00:55:46.940 out what they

00:55:47.640 thought was a

00:55:48.440 memory fault

00:55:49.320 of mine, but

00:55:51.320 I'm pretty

00:55:51.780 sure it was a

00:55:52.380 memory fault

00:55:52.880 of theirs.

00:55:54.280 So, I

00:55:54.820 can't solve

00:55:55.220 that one.

00:55:58.680 A code

00:55:59.360 word?

00:55:59.740 I don't

00:56:00.140 think we

00:56:00.400 need that.

00:56:04.260 Yeah, all

00:56:05.060 right.

00:56:06.020 Well, so

00:56:06.860 that's my

00:56:08.200 request, is to

00:56:09.180 let me know

00:56:09.640 when you

00:56:09.880 think I've

00:56:10.240 lost it.

00:56:10.660 Okay?

00:56:11.640 Let me tell

00:56:12.380 you my

00:56:12.820 current internal

00:56:14.600 impression of

00:56:15.420 my own

00:56:16.040 current

00:56:17.460 intelligence.

00:56:18.140 patience.

00:56:19.060 Here's what I

00:56:19.620 think.

00:56:21.140 I've definitely,

00:56:22.860 you know, the

00:56:23.260 age has

00:56:23.960 definitely done

00:56:24.620 the predictable

00:56:26.080 thing, which

00:56:27.780 is my ability

00:56:28.500 to learn is

00:56:29.440 probably, it

00:56:31.240 feels like it

00:56:31.820 might be lower

00:56:32.400 than it used to

00:56:33.040 be.

00:56:34.220 Now, I still

00:56:34.860 learn things.

00:56:36.140 I mean, I'm

00:56:36.580 still learning the

00:56:37.260 drums, and I'm

00:56:38.320 still learning a

00:56:39.200 bunch of other

00:56:39.660 stuff.

00:56:40.280 So, every day I'm

00:56:41.020 still learning

00:56:41.440 things, and I

00:56:42.120 don't feel like it's

00:56:43.940 necessarily harder

00:56:44.880 than it used to be.

00:56:46.140 Sometimes it

00:56:46.760 feels easier, because

00:56:48.200 I have more

00:56:48.580 framework to

00:56:49.280 connect things

00:56:49.840 to.

00:56:50.840 But, I also

00:56:52.600 have more, I

00:56:54.960 have a deeper

00:56:55.420 talent stack than

00:56:57.000 at any time in

00:56:57.760 my life, because

00:56:59.140 I'm always adding

00:56:59.880 little micro

00:57:01.520 talents to the

00:57:02.340 list.

00:57:03.200 So, to me, it

00:57:03.900 seems like I'm

00:57:04.640 more capable now

00:57:06.740 than at any time

00:57:07.540 in my life.

00:57:09.120 But not because

00:57:10.120 my brain is as

00:57:11.840 quick as it was

00:57:12.720 in my 20s, but

00:57:14.580 rather because it

00:57:15.460 has, it's been

00:57:17.060 designed over time

00:57:18.360 to have a certain

00:57:19.720 structure that

00:57:21.160 seems to work real

00:57:22.000 well for the stuff

00:57:22.800 I do.

00:57:24.060 So, to me, my

00:57:25.620 functional

00:57:26.200 intelligence is the

00:57:27.440 highest it's ever

00:57:28.120 been.

00:57:29.700 Functional, just

00:57:30.880 because of the

00:57:31.520 combination of

00:57:32.440 talents.

00:57:33.800 But I don't think

00:57:34.780 my native quickness

00:57:36.080 is the same.

00:57:37.300 I think that's

00:57:37.860 taken a hit.

00:57:39.520 And I also think

00:57:40.280 that because of

00:57:41.160 the nature of my

00:57:41.860 work, which is

00:57:43.440 extremely intellectual,

00:57:45.460 that sounded more

00:57:49.260 egotistical than I

00:57:50.340 meant it.

00:57:51.160 The nature of my

00:57:52.080 work is that it

00:57:52.640 happens in my head.

00:57:53.520 Let's put it that

00:57:54.080 way.

00:57:55.160 The intellectual

00:57:56.240 thing sounds like

00:57:57.040 I'm complimenting

00:57:57.820 myself.

00:57:58.600 But yeah, most of

00:57:59.360 my work happens in

00:58:00.040 my head.

00:58:00.560 It's creativity.

00:58:01.720 So I think that

00:58:03.900 that gives me an

00:58:04.720 edge in longevity,

00:58:06.620 mental longevity.

00:58:08.060 If everything we

00:58:09.000 know about brains

00:58:09.720 is true, the more

00:58:11.360 you use it, the more

00:58:13.280 it'll last, I

00:58:14.480 don't think many

00:58:15.060 people use their

00:58:15.780 brain more than I

00:58:16.520 do.

00:58:17.860 I mean, up to the

00:58:19.400 point where my

00:58:20.880 head hits my

00:58:21.540 keyboard from

00:58:22.160 exhaustion, that's

00:58:23.780 just mental

00:58:24.200 exhaustion.

00:58:25.740 So when I'm

00:58:27.420 looking at the

00:58:28.120 news in the

00:58:29.040 morning, I'm not

00:58:30.920 sure how much you

00:58:31.560 can appreciate this,

00:58:32.520 but each of these

00:58:34.080 news stories, I've

00:58:36.940 got to go deep

00:58:37.540 enough in them

00:58:38.240 intellectually that I

00:58:40.280 can find an angle

00:58:41.140 that would be

00:58:42.020 interesting.

00:58:43.000 That's not easy.

00:58:44.440 It's like a whole

00:58:45.020 bunch of different

00:58:45.600 stories every day.

00:58:46.940 Then the rest of

00:58:47.540 the day, I've got

00:58:48.100 to write some

00:58:49.840 cartoons, I'll

00:58:51.860 probably look at my

00:58:53.080 next micro lesson

00:58:54.060 that I'll create

00:58:54.920 for the Locals

00:58:57.000 platform.

00:58:58.060 I've got to go

00:58:58.520 work on my book,

00:59:00.320 which is 85

00:59:02.380 different topics so

00:59:03.480 far.

00:59:05.240 Just think about

00:59:06.040 that.

00:59:06.320 My book is like

00:59:06.940 85 different topics

00:59:08.180 so far.

00:59:09.540 It's pushing

00:59:10.920 toward 100.

00:59:12.340 Because each of

00:59:12.980 them is a reframe

00:59:13.900 that has to be

00:59:14.340 talked about

00:59:14.840 individually.

00:59:16.380 So on any given

00:59:17.860 day, I'm going to

00:59:19.740 look at, I don't

00:59:20.740 know, 20 news

00:59:22.640 stories, 85 topics

00:59:27.280 in a book, maybe a

00:59:29.720 deep dive on some

00:59:30.900 topic for locals,

00:59:33.540 plus how much I

00:59:35.260 tweet during the

00:59:36.360 day, plus does

00:59:39.520 designing a coffee

00:59:40.300 cup.

00:59:42.000 Let me give you an

00:59:43.000 update on the

00:59:43.740 coffee mug.

00:59:46.500 So Erica, who is

00:59:48.200 nice enough to

00:59:49.080 coordinate this,

00:59:51.480 came up with a

00:59:52.380 design which I

00:59:54.760 asked my artist

00:59:55.740 assistant to

00:59:56.980 clean up, and I'll

00:59:59.880 show it to you.

01:00:00.360 So this is the

01:00:02.740 current front of the

01:00:05.640 mug design.

01:00:07.500 What do you

01:00:08.120 think?

01:00:11.080 Comments?

01:00:11.980 Comments?

01:00:12.860 Then in the back

01:00:13.620 would be the

01:00:14.580 simultaneous sip.

01:00:18.740 Well, Erica, good

01:00:20.680 job.

01:00:21.100 Look at all those

01:00:21.600 people agreeing.

01:00:22.940 Okay.

01:00:24.380 All right.

01:00:25.200 Good.

01:00:25.460 Now, here's a

01:00:29.640 perfect reason why I

01:00:31.180 would not be the

01:00:31.820 best one to do

01:00:32.480 this.

01:00:34.260 This is actually

01:00:35.100 working better than

01:00:35.820 I'd hoped.

01:00:36.820 You have it making

01:00:37.620 a group effort.

01:00:40.340 There's an exercise

01:00:42.100 that I always ask

01:00:43.080 people to do, which

01:00:44.880 is look at anybody's

01:00:46.220 logo for any

01:00:47.120 product.

01:00:48.380 Any logo for any

01:00:49.360 product.

01:00:49.840 I'll just randomly

01:00:50.780 pick one.

01:00:52.240 All right.

01:00:53.280 Here's this water.

01:00:53.880 They've got this

01:00:55.840 logo on here.

01:00:57.020 And then I ask

01:00:57.720 you, if you were

01:00:58.960 in charge, would

01:00:59.780 you have approved

01:01:00.420 this logo?

01:01:02.520 And the answer

01:01:03.260 would be, probably

01:01:04.200 not.

01:01:05.320 You would have

01:01:05.900 been like, that's

01:01:07.480 kind of boring and

01:01:08.720 whatever.

01:01:09.940 And that's true of

01:01:10.640 every logo.

01:01:12.240 Like everybody's

01:01:13.360 logo.

01:01:16.000 You can't find two

01:01:17.140 people who like the

01:01:17.980 same thing.

01:01:19.140 It's very hard.

01:01:20.680 So there's something

01:01:21.740 about this, maybe the

01:01:23.400 simplicity of it, and

01:01:24.600 the fact that it's so

01:01:26.560 on point, I guess.

01:01:29.960 That, I don't know, I

01:01:32.120 think this collaborative

01:01:33.400 effort is much better

01:01:34.480 because I don't think I

01:01:35.220 could come up with

01:01:36.020 this on my own.

01:01:39.540 All right.

01:01:42.820 I guess it all makes

01:01:44.020 sense.

01:01:52.300 Versus Kilroy, the

01:01:55.500 bug should be black.

01:01:58.520 Yeah.

01:02:02.660 Okay.

01:02:03.540 Have simple logo, maybe

01:02:04.660 just glasses and a

01:02:05.620 simple art.

01:02:06.580 Yeah, you know, here

01:02:08.780 are all the things you

01:02:09.740 have to worry about with

01:02:10.560 the logo.

01:02:11.880 If you want a logo

01:02:12.820 that's going to last,

01:02:13.960 you have to ask your

01:02:14.660 question, ask questions

01:02:16.460 like this.

01:02:17.520 How long will people

01:02:18.680 still be wearing

01:02:19.360 glasses?

01:02:21.560 Right?

01:02:22.580 I hate having glasses

01:02:24.040 being part of your

01:02:24.900 logo because they will

01:02:25.920 change over time.

01:02:27.280 But for now, I mean,

01:02:29.120 go on this long.

01:02:33.060 Put Garfield on it.

01:02:34.360 All right.

01:02:39.420 Take a river cruise

01:02:40.520 through Europe.

01:02:41.480 That's the top of my

01:02:42.720 list for things that I

01:02:43.960 would enjoy doing.

01:02:44.980 A river cruise in

01:02:46.160 Europe.

01:02:46.660 Well, they still have

01:02:47.420 rivers.

01:02:48.460 Apparently, the rivers in

01:02:50.000 Europe have gone down

01:02:52.020 so much.

01:02:53.580 By the way, where is

01:02:54.300 all the water going?

01:02:59.400 Wait, how does this

01:03:00.360 work?

01:03:00.700 So, is the water

01:03:03.500 coming out of the

01:03:04.700 streams and lakes and

01:03:06.840 going into the ocean?

01:03:08.000 Because the water

01:03:09.540 level of the ocean is

01:03:10.500 going up, but the

01:03:11.260 water level of all of

01:03:12.440 our land-based water is

01:03:14.600 going down?

01:03:17.700 Can the climate really

01:03:19.100 do that?

01:03:20.000 Can it really take water

01:03:21.100 from one place and put

01:03:22.060 it in another place?

01:03:24.720 I suppose that's what

01:03:25.820 climate change does.

01:03:27.100 It probably does

01:03:27.840 exactly that.
