Real Coffee with Scott Adams - Episode 2064 Scott Adams： Dale The Democrat Explains Trump Indictment, Republicans Hunted, Lots More

00:00:00.000 Do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do.

00:00:04.680 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of civilization and certainly the

00:00:10.260 best day you've ever had in your life. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams. There's never

00:00:14.320 been a finer moment anywhere, ever. And if you'd like to rub it in for those people who are missing

00:00:21.260 it, like you really want to rub it in their faces how good your day is, well, all you need is a

00:00:28.220 cup or mug or a glass, a tank or a chalice or a stein, a canteen jug or a flask, a vessel of any kind.

00:00:33.420 Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the

00:00:39.660 dopamine to the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better with a little touch of

00:00:44.300 oxytocin, too. It's called the Simultaneous Sip, and it happens now. Go.

00:00:48.860 Ah. Well, you could get one of these mugs, too, if you were a member of the locals community,

00:01:00.600 or even if you're not. But you'd have to be on locals to know how to get them.

00:01:05.980 Well, I've got a pro tip for you. We'll talk about Trump and AI and some other stuff. But

00:01:13.520 first, let me ease you into it. Today is going to be challenging. Challenging content coming up

00:01:22.120 later. It will spin your head around. It will change your life. But first, a tip if you are ever

00:01:28.700 asked to testify before Congress. This is a little tip I learned by watching the TikTok CEO

00:01:34.900 and just about everybody else. There seems to be one way to do it that works every time.

00:01:42.220 Allow me to model it. Mr. Adams, there are allegations that everyone in your organization

00:01:51.360 is a pedophile and a cannibal. What percentage of pedophiles and cannibals are there in your

00:01:58.420 organization? Well, Representative, thank you for the question. I appreciate you having me here.

00:02:05.980 I don't have that data right now, but I'll have my staff look into it, and we'll get back to you.

00:02:13.780 Well, okay, but I hear there's a pile of corpses piled up in the lobby of your building. Is that true

00:02:23.380 or false? Well, thank you for the question. I understand the need to know that, and I'll ask

00:02:31.380 my staff to look into it. I'll have somebody go down to the lobby and look around. If there are

00:02:36.020 any bodies, we'll count them, and we'll get back to you. That's all it takes. Have you ever seen

00:02:42.720 anybody get back to Congress? Have you ever seen like a follow-up? And here's the follow-up.

00:02:49.400 Jim Jordan asked this question, and so-and-so said they'd get back to him, and they did within 24 hours.

00:02:56.360 And here's the data. Huh. Have you ever seen that? No. And if they call you back to testify in front

00:03:03.580 of Congress, and they say, hey, you promised us this information. Where is it? Do you know how you

00:03:08.820 handle that? If they take you back a second time and say, where's all that information you promised

00:03:14.820 us? Allow me to model it. Well, that's a good point, Senator. And I'll have my staff compile that

00:03:21.680 immediately and get right back to you. Works every time. All right. Excuse my voice. It's not coming

00:03:34.860 totally back online yet. But so here's the biggest alarm of the day. I'd like to talk about all the

00:03:41.920 things that will kill us immediately, just to get you in the mood for what's to come. So the following

00:03:49.600 things will kill us all fairly soon. We'll all be dead from this. Number one is the dollar

00:03:56.820 might no longer be the reserve currency. Russia and China, Iran, maybe Saudi Arabia are moving

00:04:04.060 away from the U.S. dollar as the preferred dollar, you know, preferred currency for international

00:04:10.420 trading. Now, let me explain, because I have a background in economics, how not having the

00:04:17.440 dollar as a reserve currency will ripple into the economy and then will affect you personally?

00:04:26.920 It goes like this. Day one, the dollar is no longer the reserve currency. And then things happen

00:04:34.820 within the inflation concept of the curves, but then the yield curve is because of supply and demand.

00:04:43.480 And then there's like going to be an influx and of course the trust and then the reserves. You'll

00:04:48.900 have other foreign reserves, the yuan, the yuan, President Xi. And then Saudi Arabia is a country. They

00:04:55.100 have oil. And then the economics forces will roil. There'll be roiling of the economic forces. And that

00:05:03.540 will result in each of you being beheaded by a Saudi with a knife. Now, a lot of people are not going to

00:05:11.220 explain it to you in that detail. But basically, this all ends with us being killed by bone saws.

00:05:18.360 If nobody who knows economics has explained to you the obvious progression from not being a reserve

00:05:25.300 currency to having your head taken off by a bone saw, I feel like that's another problem with the news.

00:05:33.020 But that's not the only thing that's going to kill us immediately. We've got our raging inflation,

00:05:41.360 of course. But here's a summary of our other alarmisms. We've got China is collapsing because

00:05:48.980 of population bomb, as well as most of the West. So we're all going to die because of a population

00:05:55.160 imbalance. You've got Russia collapsing because of the war, or maybe not. You've got the US collapsing

00:06:02.720 because of inflation, the reserve currency. And of course, everybody will be dead from AI probably

00:06:09.980 by the end of the year. AI will rise up and kill us all. But that could be the only thing that saves

00:06:16.080 us from climate death. Because if AI didn't kill us first, then the climate would get us. And I know a

00:06:24.740 lot of the climate people are really mad lately. Have you noticed? The climate alarm people are

00:06:31.880 really pissed because they backed the wrong existential threat. Imagine spending 20 years

00:06:39.080 of your life saying, the climate is going to kill you. Global warming is going to kill us all. And then

00:06:45.460 it turns out AI kills us first. How embarrassing would that be? You'd be like, oh, I just wasted 20

00:06:52.540 years complaining about climate change. And now the AI just killed me. You would die with embarrassment.

00:07:00.420 You would be so embarrassed that you'd wasted your time on the wrong existential threat. I would call

00:07:06.440 that a wasted life. But more generally, let me say this. I can't tell, and I really can't tell,

00:07:17.240 if things are worse at the moment, or it's just a function of the news. I can't tell. Because every

00:07:25.980 one of these existential threats, it looks manageable. From my perspective, they all look manageable.

00:07:32.820 And from my perspective, they don't look that much worse than anything has ever looked. World War II was

00:07:42.920 worse. The Great Depression, worse. The dominoes of communism falling, well, it looked worse. Turns out

00:07:54.760 it was sort of a big nothing. But I would, yeah, acid rain, the ozone, hole in the ozone. Yeah. Pollution's

00:08:05.320 going to kill us all. Air pollution got us. Right. So I have a feeling that there's nothing really

00:08:13.740 important happening. So there's one possibility, which is there are 10 different ways that Earth

00:08:20.780 will be extinct in a month. I mean, that's basically what the news is telling you. You know,

00:08:26.620 that fentanyl will kill us all, and the cartels are taking over, and basically crime will be rampant.

00:08:33.160 The cities are dead. Everything's falling apart. But I don't actually know that it's worse than it's

00:08:39.880 ever been. Yeah, asteroids, asteroids heading toward the Earth. Is it? What do you think?

00:08:46.480 If you were just, like, shake off the, you know, the news and the bias and just go,

00:08:52.900 all right, if I'm starting fresh, and I really could see the entire arc of human history,

00:09:00.160 and then I put us in that arc, is it unusual? Are we in some kind of an unusually risky situation?

00:09:08.720 My intuition tells me no. But it's always helped us to act like it's an existential threat,

00:09:18.860 because then we do the maximum amount of work to try to make it stop. Yeah. We're even talking about

00:09:26.360 giant civilization-crushing events that happen every, you know, every so many years. Yeah.

00:09:35.420 We're saying that our empire has only lasted 250 years, or whatever, and the U.S. is already beyond

00:09:41.280 it. So I don't think any of it's real. My best guess is that none of it is real. Just none of it.

00:09:51.860 It's all a little bit real. So 100% of it is a little bit real. But I think none of it's going to kill

00:09:58.920 us. I think we'll probably be largely the same next year as this year. Largely. Well, some things

00:10:07.600 will change, of course, with AI, but we'll get to that. Well, I'm going to borrow a Greg Gottfeld

00:10:14.980 line. Corinne Jean-Pierre, I think he once called her cringe. Cringe Jean-Pierre. That stuck with

00:10:24.860 me. I like it. Cringe. So cringe in responding to the mass shooting in Nashville, which was committed

00:10:34.280 by an individual who we believe identifies as trans. And her comment on that was that the trans

00:10:43.320 community is under attack. So you know how you always wondered, is it just hyperbole when people

00:10:55.620 say the Democrats care about identity, you know, what you are, more than your children? Didn't you

00:11:04.700 really think that? I mean, that's not true. And nobody cares about identity more than the life of

00:11:10.980 children. But there it is. There it is. She actually thought that the headline should be that

00:11:18.920 the trans community is under attack when a member of the trans community just killed children.

00:11:25.460 Now, to be fair, I'm sure she cares about children, too. But when you word it this way, and your job,

00:11:33.040 your job, your job, your job is to word things correctly and to make sure that priorities are

00:11:40.120 understood. I don't know how to interpret this, except that she meant exactly what she said,

00:11:46.360 which is the higher priority is protecting the trans community. The lower priority was protecting

00:11:55.720 children from dying. Honestly, I don't know another way to interpret it. I think she said it just the

00:12:03.640 way she meant it. That's what it looked like. Now, I'm not a mind reader. I'm not a mind reader. But

00:12:09.500 remember, she's not just anybody. She's the person that the President of the United States thought would

00:12:16.300 be his best choice to explain things clearly. And unfortunately, I think she did. I think she did.

00:12:24.760 That's what it looks like. All right. Well, how many would say that my prediction before the election,

00:12:32.920 the last election, where I said Republicans would be hunted if Biden won the election? How many of you

00:12:39.820 would say that prediction came true? The Republicans are hunted? A lot of people say yes. So let's go

00:12:50.840 through the list. There are a thousand people charged with apparently nonviolent crimes for January 6th,

00:12:58.060 which we do know would not be typical, right? It's not typical to charge that many people for a protest.

00:13:05.460 But they might round up another thousand. So that would be 2,000 people that they literally had to

00:13:13.360 hunt for. In other words, they had to track them down. And then they had to tag them. You know,

00:13:19.380 we know their names now, so they're tagged. And then they're going to try to put them in jail.

00:13:25.480 2,000 of them. All right. What about Matt Taibbi? Now, he's not a Republican. I get,

00:13:32.820 I believe he no longer is voting Democrat. So Matt Taibbi, an independent journalist,

00:13:41.640 writes about the Twitter files. And that made him close enough to being a Republican

00:13:46.440 that the IRS showed up at his door the same day he was going to talk to Congress.

00:13:52.720 Now, IRS has not explained that yet. Is it a coincidence? Or was it intimidation?

00:13:59.780 Well, here's where the operating assumption comes in. We might never know the official answer.

00:14:09.420 But your operating assumption should be that there is not a coincidence. All right. Because

00:14:15.080 the government has the, very easily, they could tell you if it's something else. The IRS could easily

00:14:21.680 say, okay, we asked around. It only took us about an hour to find out why that happened.

00:14:28.400 It'd take about an hour, right? At most, probably 10 minutes. Why'd you do that? Oh, we did it

00:14:35.020 because of X or Y. The fact that they're not telling you why they did it allows you, a reasonable

00:14:41.860 citizen, to have an operating assumption. You don't know for sure, but the way you should act as though

00:14:49.660 it was exactly what it looks like. It was intimidation of a citizen for just wanting to tell the truth

00:14:57.540 about something of great national interest. So assume it's true. You should assume it's true

00:15:05.000 exactly what you look like. To me, that's another example of hunting Republicans or people who are

00:15:11.680 not Democrat enough, right? You can be hunted just by being not Democrat enough.

00:15:17.800 Now, how about the Trump indictment? I'll talk more about it in detail. But the Trump indictment,

00:15:25.120 does that look like hunting? Or does that look like the legal process working the way it normally

00:15:30.620 works? No, it's obviously hunting. Very clearly, it's hunting. How about, here's a tougher one.

00:15:38.860 Do you think it's a coincidence that I got canceled as the 2024 election is coming up? And people who

00:15:48.160 follow politics would know that I had some influence over voter minds about Trump. Do you think it's a

00:15:56.040 coincidence? Or do you think I got hunted? Well, it's not a coincidence. No. Now, and you could probably

00:16:06.000 find a bunch of other examples of people who were taken off the board for one reason or another. Now,

00:16:12.020 it does work both ways. You know, the Republicans would definitely like to take off the board any

00:16:17.300 bad behaving Democrats. But I don't know that they've succeeded. It seems like the Democrats are

00:16:23.720 actually succeeding. And here's my reframe of the day.

00:16:29.480 The, you know, pretty much every big company now has a diversity, equity, and inclusion

00:16:37.040 officer, an actual department to make sure the company is following the diversity, equity, and

00:16:44.180 inclusion guidelines. Here's what I think that is. I think DEI is a hunting license for Republicans.

00:16:52.140 Here's how you know. In order to prove me wrong, show me one example of a conservative who's heading

00:17:10.860 up a DEI group in any company. Just one. Just one example. All you'd have to do is say,

00:17:18.280 well, Scott, you didn't know that at Coca-Cola, there's a well-known conservative who's in charge

00:17:24.880 of the DEI group. Do you think there are any? No. DEI is a hunting license for Republicans.

00:17:33.080 It is a way to identify and eliminate them from the economic channels, and also government,

00:17:39.640 and also education. It is nothing but a hunting license. Nothing but a hunting license.

00:17:45.880 That's your reframe. Do you feel it? Just feel it for a moment, because that's how you know what

00:17:56.200 works. What works is not what's clever, right? Being clever or having wordplay, that's nothing.

00:18:04.980 That's nothing. It's how it makes you feel. DEI is a hunting license. There are no conservatives

00:18:12.760 running DEI that are looking for Democrats to remove from the process. That doesn't exist.

00:18:20.560 It is purely, purely Democrats hunting for Republicans, and they found a way to do it

00:18:27.080 under a holy umbrella of equity and equality. It's very clever. It's very clever. And I feel embarrassed

00:18:36.880 that we didn't realize it was a hunting license until now. Because if you create, and by the

00:18:42.480 way, I'm just going to, well, there's something I can't tell you yet, but I'll tell you later.

00:18:49.760 But I do have personal, let's just say this. I have personal experience of DEI people trying to get rid

00:19:01.680 of me, right? That's where it comes from. It doesn't come from people. Do you think the Washington Post

00:19:09.560 editors decided just on their own that I should be canceled? Or do you think they have a DEI group,

00:19:16.780 and the DEI group said, well, you pay us to tell you who's bad, and you're paying us to say he's bad,

00:19:25.040 you better act on it. Once you have a DEI group, you can't ignore them. If you hired a group to find

00:19:32.760 ghosts in your company, how many would they find? Think about it. Let's say that was a thing.

00:19:39.960 There's no more ghosts in this example than in the real world. But let's say you hired people whose

00:19:47.840 job it was to find them. Would they spend a year of their time and say, you know, there are no ghosts

00:19:53.900 here. You probably don't need me. You should let me go. There are no ghosts here. Nope. If you pay

00:20:02.100 somebody to find ghosts, they're going to find all kinds of ghosts. You're going to find there are ghosts

00:20:07.100 in the microwave. You're going to find there's ghosts in the network. There's ghosts in the chairs.

00:20:16.020 There's ghosts in the furniture. In fact, the entire system that operates your company is probably held

00:20:23.180 together by systemic ghosts. There might be systemic ghostism, which is a little harder to explain,

00:20:29.500 but it's sort of the net effect of all the ghosts. Yeah. You would find all the ghosts you could find

00:20:37.000 if somebody was paid to find them. So what happens if you pay people to find racism? They'll get rid of

00:20:44.020 all the Republicans or the Republicans will leave. Now, here's what I would suggest for the Republican

00:20:51.080 Party. Number one, they should call DEI and CRT and ESG what they are. They're hunting licenses.

00:20:59.400 For Republicans or conservatives, if you like. The Republicans, at least if they have control over

00:21:09.440 one body, should propose legislation in which you must label your organization as somebody who has

00:21:16.300 these elements within it. You should have to disclose whether you have ESG and DEI so that people can

00:21:24.420 avoid them. And it should be just like the warning on cigarettes. Because if you're a white man,

00:21:30.460 getting near a DEI organization is risky, just like smoking cigarettes is risky. You know, one is

00:21:37.620 directly for your health. The other one is for your economics and your reputation, which also affects

00:21:43.060 your health. You know, if you lose money and you lose your reputation, it's probably bad for your stress.

00:21:47.540 So, do you see any problem with that? Do you think that there should be a warning label on organizations

00:21:55.080 that are pushing hunting licenses for conservatives?

00:21:58.840 Yes or no? Yeah. Because one thing that I don't think is illegal is labeling things that Democrats

00:22:11.020 think are good. Let's label it. Now, I know what you're going to say. You're going to say 100% of

00:22:17.460 Fortune 500 companies have these things, so you can't avoid them? Yes, you can. Yes, you can.

00:22:23.660 For example, Warren Buffett was recently asked if he used diversity as one of his variables when

00:22:32.040 staffing his own smallish group of people who run Brookshire Hathaway. Do you know what he said?

00:22:39.260 Nope. No. It is not a variable. It's zero. It's a zero variable. So, you could work for Warren

00:22:51.620 Buffett's company, right? It's one of the biggest companies there is. Now, it's only a small group

00:22:58.880 that work for Warren Buffett, you know, but they own a lot of other companies in terms of shares they

00:23:04.060 own. But I do believe that private companies and some few companies would be willing to say that they

00:23:13.020 don't have this risk. If you're a white man, you shouldn't go near a company that has a DEI, CRT,

00:23:21.340 ESG emphasis. It's just risky. It's risky legally. It's risky economically. It's risky reputationally.

00:23:31.820 It's just really, really fucking risky. We label risky stuff. We don't ban it. We don't ban it

00:23:40.540 because it's a free country. But we label it. Why would this be different? Let's label the risk.

00:23:47.140 If you're creating an organization which I know to be risky to me, I'm obviously the case in point.

00:23:55.580 Do you think that I had any risk from DEI groups? Yeah. That's what got me canceled.

00:24:01.420 And not just canceled there. I've been more canceled than you're aware of, right? Let's just say the

00:24:09.420 cancellation went a little bit deeper than you think. So there's more to this story. And it's

00:24:15.560 entirely because of a DEI group somewhere who targeted me for being too friendly with Republicans,

00:24:23.320 I guess. I'm not even a Republican. But yes, Republicans are being hunted, and now they have

00:24:31.720 a haunting license. All right. Have you heard anybody say that nobody's above the law talking about

00:24:39.880 Trump's indictment? Here's my take on that. Anybody who says about this, about Trump, that nobody is above

00:24:48.000 the law, that's not a political opinion. That's not a legal opinion. That's an asshole. That's just an

00:24:58.580 asshole. Because there's nobody arguing that somebody's above the law. If you're not even

00:25:05.920 going to talk about the topic, don't start spewing your bumper sticker bullshit, right? Let me explain

00:25:13.740 as only I can, or should I say, as only Dale the Democrat can explain why this is so important

00:25:21.720 that no one's above the law. Allow me to introduce Dale. Dale has a very bad goatee, and he is a member

00:25:32.840 of the Progressive Party. And Dale will explain to you the importance of no one is above the law.

00:25:41.580 Dale, Dale, I keep hearing people say no one's above the law about the Trump indictment. Like, what does

00:25:51.500 that mean exactly? It means what it says. It means exactly what it says. No one in this country is above

00:25:58.800 the law. No one. Therefore, he should be executed immediately, because he's not above the law.

00:26:06.400 Well, well, shouldn't he be found guilty? Well, that's what it used to be. But if you listen

00:26:17.920 to Nancy Pelosi, who recently stated that he has a chance to prove his innocence, there you go. That's

00:26:27.280 fair. Prove his innocence? She didn't actually say, prove his innocence. Like, that couldn't possibly

00:26:37.360 have been an actual statement by the Speaker of the House. Oh, yeah. That's an exact quote.

00:26:44.720 Okay. Really? Look it up. Exact quote. Got to prove you're innocent. All right. All right. So you do

00:26:58.200 understand, Dale, that nobody who supports Trump about this indictment, nobody is arguing whether a law has

00:27:06.540 been technically broken. You understand that that's not really the point, right?

00:27:14.720 Nobody's above the law. Nobody's above the law. Commit the crime, pay the price.

00:27:25.860 Hmm. Dale, do you think that that's like a universal thing? Have you ever, Dale, have you ever exceeded

00:27:34.420 the speed limit? No comment? But are you saying that every breach of the law, no matter how minor, no matter how

00:27:48.580 much you have to torture the law, that in every case, that's a good decision to just follow the law like a robot,

00:27:58.500 without any sense of the bigger picture or justice? Is that what you're saying?

00:28:11.740 Nobody's above the law.

00:28:15.140 Well, I just saw a tweet from Rick Grinnell, who is pointing out that the Democrats are in favor of

00:28:22.680 sanctuary cities. Now, unless I don't understand what a sanctuary city is, I believe it's exactly

00:28:30.560 putting some people above the law, saying that they will not be prosecuted, even though the law says

00:28:38.620 clearly that they will be. So wouldn't that be an example, or like a really clear example, a very clear,

00:28:45.980 clear example of Democrats saying that a certain class of people are above the law? Dale, don't you

00:28:53.900 think so? Nobody's above the law! And seen. So, yeah, the nobody's above the law people are just

00:29:13.800 assholes. They're not part of the conversation. They're just not part of a conversation. They're

00:29:21.720 not reasoning. They're not arguing. They're just assholes. They're just assholes. Because they know

00:29:28.880 their point doesn't make sense. They know that if they were reversed, they'd be arguing the opposite

00:29:33.500 side, right? So don't argue with assholes. There's no point in that. All right.

00:29:41.920 All right. Let's talk about Trump. So as you probably all know, he's been indicted by

00:29:48.740 Alvin Bragg, out of New York. And he's indicted on 30 counts. We don't know the details. But as

00:29:58.100 Trump's lawyer very ably described, the number of counts doesn't mean anything. Because they can

00:30:04.440 separate one charge into lots of little micro charges. So that's probably what's going on there.

00:30:09.380 So we don't know if there are 30 distinct things or one thing that they broke into 30 parts.

00:30:17.320 But I have to say, I think I saw two of Trump's lawyers. I saw a woman and a man. The man was on

00:30:25.480 CNN. The woman was on Fox. And I thought they were both great. Did anybody catch either of them? I don't

00:30:33.900 know their names. Yeah, maybe. Yeah. But the one, the man who appeared on CNN, he did the best job of

00:30:46.860 persuasion voice that you'll ever see. If you want to see a face and a voice that are persuasion

00:30:55.900 perfect, you've got to watch that. Jake Tapper was talking to him. I can't remember his name.

00:31:00.640 But if you can find that clip. And I almost can't do an impression. I think he talked for 10 minutes

00:31:08.120 without blinking. How the hell do you do that? You know, I blink a lot when I talk. I mean, I'm not

00:31:14.420 aware of it, but apparently I do. But he was just like looking right at the camera without blinking.

00:31:19.360 And it really makes a difference in how credible you look. Because I think blinkers look less

00:31:26.040 credible. You know, unfortunately, because I'm a blinker. But he also, he talks with a calmness

00:31:34.920 that makes any accusation sound ridiculous. That's the persuasion voice. So here's what a bad

00:31:44.460 persuasion person does. I believe your client once dismembered a baby. What do you have to say

00:31:53.360 about that? Bad persuasion voice would be like this. He's not, he's not a baby dismantler. He

00:32:00.420 never did that. Right. Immediately you sound all defensive and not sure about what you're talking

00:32:06.820 about. But persuasion voice would be, well, Jake, you know that that didn't happen. The, what did

00:32:15.000 happen was there was a story that people confused with that. You see the difference? If you say it

00:32:22.100 matter of factly, you just lay out the facts. It sounds like you're telling the truth. And it sounds

00:32:28.780 like you know what you're talking about. And Trump's lawyer was really good at that. Both of them,

00:32:34.420 actually. They were both really good at it. All right. I saw two people who had a similar take

00:32:45.440 about Trump's status now. Glenn Beck and in a different way, Greg Gottfeld, both sort of talking

00:32:52.700 about Trump as now ascending from Trump an individual, or even Trump a president, into Trump a symbol.

00:33:01.340 Do you feel that? Martyr, martyrs may be premature, but he feels like he's just us now. And when I say

00:33:11.060 us, I mean anybody who's the subject of the hunting licenses. If you're, if you're the prey, you feel

00:33:19.000 like he's protecting the herd, right? Like, you know that the sheepdog, the sheepdog doesn't just herd the

00:33:28.680 sheep. The sheepdog also protects them, you know, against a wolf or whatever. So he feels like the

00:33:35.680 sheepdog that are protecting the flock. And it looks like the wolves have surrounded him. It feels to me

00:33:44.900 like there's one really, really effective sheepdog. And he's now surrounded by wolves.

00:33:54.420 What do you do? What do you do? Well, I'll tell you what doesn't usually happen. What usually doesn't

00:34:02.440 happen is the sheep, you know, gang up on the wolves. That doesn't happen. He's kind of on his own.

00:34:09.500 But if you wanted to place a bet on this particular sheepdog, not sheepdogs in general, just this

00:34:18.880 particular one against a group of wolves, how do you bet? Do you bet for the wolves? Or do you bet on

00:34:28.340 the sheepdog? I don't know. It's going to be a closer fight than they think. And you've been hearing

00:34:38.960 the phrase a little bit. I've been trying to, I've been holding off from saying this, because it's the

00:34:45.160 most obvious thing to say. If you come for the king, you better finish the job. If you come for the king,

00:34:53.780 you better finish the king, you better finish the job. And I don't know if any of you have the same

00:35:01.340 feeling. When the indictment was first announced a week ago or whenever it was, did you feel outrage?

00:35:09.980 Like just visceral outrage? I did. I felt outrage, right? But then some time goes by,

00:35:19.020 and then the indictment, which I was actually a little surprised. I was a little bit surprised

00:35:24.040 it actually happened. But when it happened, I did not feel outrage.

00:35:30.960 And I have been searching for why.

00:35:36.840 And it's because it's not outrage anymore.

00:35:39.720 It's not outrage anymore. Now it's decision.

00:35:47.800 I have this habit where if something outrages me, you know, my body's on fire. My mind's on fire.

00:35:56.740 And the only way I can put it out is by making a decision.

00:36:00.000 Okay. Apparently, I'm going to have to kill three wolves.

00:36:08.160 When the wolves surround you,

00:36:11.220 your first impression should be, you know,

00:36:13.920 anger or fear or, you know,

00:36:17.540 fight or flight.

00:36:19.380 That should be your first impression.

00:36:21.740 Once you decide that you're going to fight to the death,

00:36:26.320 that all goes away.

00:36:30.000 A decision will calm you.

00:36:33.440 So it's time to decide.

00:36:35.840 It's not time to storm the Capitol.

00:36:39.040 It's not time to clean your guns.

00:36:41.940 It's not time to be threatening.

00:36:43.980 It's not time to be stupid about it.

00:36:47.200 It's not time to be divided.

00:36:50.440 It's not time to get all worked up and do something stupid.

00:36:54.040 It's time to decide.

00:36:56.720 It's time to take stuff back.

00:36:58.340 It's time to get rid of the hunting licenses.

00:37:02.100 It's time to get rid of the crazies.

00:37:04.560 It's time to restore sanity.

00:37:07.100 It's time to make America what it can be.

00:37:10.600 To take back

00:37:11.800 all of the divisive, destructive,

00:37:16.820 ridiculous

00:37:17.460 things that we've allowed.

00:37:19.640 It's a decision now.

00:37:23.800 It's a decision.

00:37:26.860 You don't need to go nuts.

00:37:28.920 You just need to do what you need to do.

00:37:31.700 And let me say the obvious.

00:37:33.180 If the Republican Party doesn't put a full-court press

00:37:37.960 on ballot collection,

00:37:39.940 which you might call harvesting,

00:37:41.560 in a legal way, totally legal,

00:37:44.180 I'd be really disappointed.

00:37:48.940 Really disappointed.

00:37:49.880 Because

00:37:51.360 it's on.

00:37:54.480 It's on.

00:37:56.760 And you don't need to know what's coming.

00:37:59.580 You don't need to know that the polls

00:38:02.020 between now and Election Day

00:38:03.420 will all be bullshit.

00:38:05.760 You know what to do.

00:38:06.760 You know what to do when you get polled.

00:38:10.260 Don't you?

00:38:12.160 You know exactly what to do.

00:38:14.480 You know exactly what to do.

00:38:17.240 It's time for a decision.

00:38:19.060 It's time for the adults

00:38:20.220 to assert themselves.

00:38:23.020 It's time to protect the children.

00:38:25.340 It's time to make the country healthy.

00:38:28.560 And it's time to get rid of the crazy people.

00:38:32.420 It's a decision.

00:38:34.180 It's time.

00:38:34.900 You know I always get mocked

00:38:38.580 for saying the slippery slope isn't real.

00:38:41.380 It's not exactly what I say.

00:38:42.760 There's somebody who wants to do that.

00:38:44.280 But what I do say

00:38:45.180 is that everything goes in the direction it goes

00:38:48.380 until something stops it.

00:38:51.320 Everything.

00:38:53.240 This is the end of the road.

00:38:55.900 This is the end of the road.

00:38:57.700 There's no more slipping.

00:38:59.920 We're going to call anti-white behavior

00:39:02.140 anti-white behavior.

00:39:03.180 We're going to call the hunting licenses

00:39:05.760 for Republicans hunting licenses.

00:39:08.580 We're going to make sure

00:39:09.640 that this shit is labeled

00:39:11.040 so you know the risk.

00:39:12.800 You're going to not be afraid

00:39:14.200 of avoiding people

00:39:15.420 who have toxic mindsets.

00:39:18.240 You should stop hiring anybody

00:39:20.120 if you're Republican.

00:39:21.580 Just stop hiring anybody

00:39:22.860 who has this toxic mindset.

00:39:24.760 And you should say it out loud.

00:39:26.240 And you should promote

00:39:27.900 that you don't have a DEI group

00:39:30.400 in your organization.

00:39:33.300 You get a lot of good people

00:39:34.560 applying for the job.

00:39:36.580 Yeah.

00:39:37.220 It's time for the adults

00:39:38.620 to assert themselves.

00:39:40.940 And by the way,

00:39:41.800 this has nothing to do with Trump.

00:39:44.700 Just to be perfectly clear,

00:39:46.740 I don't know if any laws were violated.

00:39:49.020 I just know that the people

00:39:50.040 who do know,

00:39:51.500 people like Jonathan Turley,

00:39:53.180 people like Dershowitz,

00:39:54.060 they say it's bullshit.

00:39:56.480 I don't think they're wrong.

00:39:58.860 I doubt they'd be wrong on this.

00:40:00.500 They've been right about

00:40:01.180 pretty much everything

00:40:02.400 since I've been watching.

00:40:05.420 So something,

00:40:09.140 I felt that,

00:40:10.580 here's what I felt.

00:40:12.540 I felt that when Trump

00:40:13.980 actually got indicted,

00:40:15.960 that was so clearly too far.

00:40:18.760 Too far.

00:40:21.120 Just too far.

00:40:22.120 That everybody can see it now.

00:40:25.960 Before,

00:40:26.520 it was a little unclear.

00:40:28.660 It looks like a lot of things

00:40:29.820 are heading in the direction

00:40:31.380 of too far.

00:40:32.500 Some things are already too far,

00:40:34.240 but other things are not.

00:40:36.020 You know,

00:40:36.240 let's keep an eye on the situation.

00:40:38.460 No,

00:40:38.620 now it's just too far.

00:40:40.540 It's too far.

00:40:42.460 It's going to stop.

00:40:45.360 All right.

00:40:46.340 DeSantis

00:40:46.780 can't win in this situation.

00:40:49.160 If he says something weak,

00:40:50.940 that's bad.

00:40:52.380 If he says something strong,

00:40:54.840 I don't know.

00:40:55.920 Maybe that's bad for him

00:40:57.060 some other way.

00:40:58.640 But,

00:40:59.500 he did,

00:41:00.020 he did

00:41:00.740 put out a statement

00:41:03.200 that said that Florida

00:41:04.840 would not assist in extradition,

00:41:07.620 assist in the extradition request.

00:41:10.300 Is that just weasel wording?

00:41:13.420 Because do they need to assist?

00:41:16.400 Is that even a variable?

00:41:19.400 Now,

00:41:19.720 you say they need to assist.

00:41:21.360 There might be some paperwork

00:41:22.480 they need to sign.

00:41:23.980 But isn't that going to be irrelevant

00:41:25.600 if Trump agrees

00:41:26.980 to go to New York and surrender,

00:41:28.480 which apparently is what's happening?

00:41:30.880 If Trump says,

00:41:31.920 I'm going to go to New York,

00:41:34.220 DeSantis is out of the game.

00:41:35.720 It has nothing to do with Florida

00:41:36.840 after that.

00:41:37.360 So,

00:41:39.400 I feel like DeSantis made

00:41:41.180 like a clever,

00:41:43.880 political,

00:41:45.380 you know,

00:41:45.740 non-stand

00:41:47.040 because it wouldn't matter.

00:41:50.040 And he wanted to look like

00:41:51.280 he was doing something.

00:41:52.020 But he couldn't mention

00:41:53.000 Trump's name

00:41:53.840 in his statement.

00:41:55.720 He just picked on the DA

00:41:57.300 for being a Soros

00:41:58.420 backed DA.

00:42:01.440 Yeah.

00:42:02.980 So,

00:42:03.640 Soros is the one who's,

00:42:05.660 he's,

00:42:07.360 he's giving out

00:42:07.860 to hunting licenses

00:42:08.800 for Republicans.

00:42:13.420 All right.

00:42:15.060 So,

00:42:15.960 I saw CNN

00:42:17.340 complaining that Fox News

00:42:19.120 was backing Trump

00:42:20.860 over this situation.

00:42:22.840 Now,

00:42:23.120 that's what I saw.

00:42:24.260 But I didn't see them

00:42:25.180 backing Trump.

00:42:27.480 That's not how

00:42:28.320 I interpreted it.

00:42:29.420 I mean,

00:42:29.640 it comes out that way

00:42:30.800 in a practical sense.

00:42:32.240 But I didn't see Fox News

00:42:33.640 backing Trump.

00:42:34.340 I saw them

00:42:35.600 backing the rule

00:42:36.380 of law.

00:42:38.940 Is it,

00:42:39.560 is it news?

00:42:41.360 Is it news

00:42:42.260 that Fox News

00:42:43.240 is in favor of

00:42:44.220 like the law

00:42:46.640 and stuff?

00:42:48.280 That shouldn't be news,

00:42:49.680 but you have to see

00:42:50.400 and then it is.

00:42:52.620 And again,

00:42:53.440 it's not the question

00:42:54.220 of whether some

00:42:54.920 technical law

00:42:56.020 was violated.

00:42:57.080 We're all adults.

00:42:58.360 We know that presidents

00:42:59.280 and ex-presidents

00:43:00.420 should not be targeted

00:43:02.020 with trivial charges.

00:43:04.840 Everybody knows that.

00:43:07.360 And by the way,

00:43:08.220 I would say the same thing

00:43:09.100 about Biden.

00:43:11.400 If this were reversed

00:43:12.760 and somebody

00:43:14.160 was trying to take

00:43:14.820 Biden in on

00:43:15.680 kind of bullshitty

00:43:17.160 little charges

00:43:17.900 like this,

00:43:18.520 I'd be just as

00:43:19.400 concerned.

00:43:20.960 It would feel

00:43:21.680 less personal

00:43:22.360 because,

00:43:23.420 you know,

00:43:23.860 it's not somebody

00:43:24.580 who's protecting me

00:43:26.160 from the wolves.

00:43:27.400 But I would be

00:43:28.260 just as concerned.

00:43:29.280 It would look wrong

00:43:29.860 to me either way.

00:43:30.660 You know,

00:43:32.040 it's easy to say.

00:43:33.040 I like to think

00:43:33.920 that would be true anyway.

00:43:35.240 I would like to think

00:43:36.060 that of myself.

00:43:38.940 So Vivek Ramaswamy

00:43:40.440 continues to be

00:43:41.760 the best communicator

00:43:44.180 in the race

00:43:44.780 by far.

00:43:47.120 He's full-throated

00:43:48.260 against this,

00:43:50.640 full-throated

00:43:51.460 supporting Trump

00:43:52.380 without supporting Trump,

00:43:54.260 which is the important part.

00:43:55.580 He's not supporting Trump,

00:43:57.000 the candidate

00:43:57.700 or the person.

00:43:58.380 He's supporting

00:43:59.600 the right way

00:44:01.840 to be,

00:44:02.440 basically.

00:44:03.360 He's supporting

00:44:03.980 a system

00:44:04.640 that isn't corrupt.

00:44:06.220 That's what he's supporting.

00:44:07.280 And he's doing it

00:44:07.900 full-throated.

00:44:09.260 He's aggressive

00:44:10.180 about it.

00:44:12.400 Absolutely

00:44:12.920 what we need

00:44:14.140 more of.

00:44:15.300 Now,

00:44:15.580 I'll say it again.

00:44:16.540 I don't know

00:44:17.220 what his odds

00:44:17.880 of winning are

00:44:18.660 because,

00:44:19.640 you know,

00:44:19.800 he'd have to get

00:44:20.300 through Trump

00:44:20.960 and maybe DeSantis

00:44:21.940 and that's a pretty

00:44:23.120 high bar.

00:44:24.200 But he's doing

00:44:25.200 the most productive

00:44:26.520 work of any

00:44:27.460 of the candidates.

00:44:29.760 You know,

00:44:30.020 say what you will

00:44:31.720 about Trump,

00:44:32.320 but he's not doing

00:44:32.900 anything for me.

00:44:34.920 He doesn't help me

00:44:36.040 at all.

00:44:37.340 Like,

00:44:37.660 the things he says

00:44:38.680 are not bringing,

00:44:39.480 you know,

00:44:39.960 glory and credit

00:44:41.500 to me

00:44:42.100 whatsoever.

00:44:43.780 But when I listen

00:44:44.700 to Vivek,

00:44:46.300 even sometimes

00:44:47.080 if I don't agree

00:44:47.960 on some,

00:44:48.460 you know,

00:44:48.700 technical policy

00:44:49.640 kind of thing,

00:44:50.600 I still think,

00:44:51.580 well,

00:44:51.680 that's the guy

00:44:52.240 I'd like

00:44:52.680 to be associated with.

00:44:55.320 Like,

00:44:55.580 when I hear him

00:44:56.060 talk,

00:44:56.420 I go,

00:44:56.780 okay,

00:44:57.000 that's really smart.

00:44:58.560 That's a smart person

00:44:59.940 with his head

00:45:01.240 is in the game.

00:45:02.320 He understands

00:45:03.020 the difference

00:45:03.500 between politics

00:45:04.380 and practical stuff.

00:45:06.600 Like,

00:45:06.980 I totally want

00:45:07.620 to be associated

00:45:08.220 with that mindset.

00:45:10.920 And he's got

00:45:11.800 the best mindset

00:45:12.440 in the game right now,

00:45:13.300 in my opinion.

00:45:14.440 When you look at,

00:45:15.180 when you look at

00:45:16.240 DeSantis,

00:45:16.820 he just looks

00:45:17.320 like a politician.

00:45:18.980 When you listen

00:45:19.820 to Vivek,

00:45:21.080 he sounds like

00:45:21.820 a problem solver.

00:45:23.920 It feels

00:45:24.660 completely different.

00:45:26.160 It feels like

00:45:26.820 Vivek can say

00:45:27.880 exactly what he feels,

00:45:30.320 leave out no variables,

00:45:32.260 and then make his case.

00:45:33.800 The politicians

00:45:34.580 will just talk

00:45:35.640 about the variables

00:45:36.360 they want to focus on.

00:45:37.920 They'll leave out

00:45:38.660 the other variables

00:45:39.500 and try to,

00:45:40.680 you know,

00:45:41.140 persuade you that way.

00:45:42.460 He seems like

00:45:43.120 a different animal.

00:45:44.580 Vivek seems like,

00:45:45.380 I'll show you

00:45:45.980 all the variables.

00:45:47.840 Here's the cost.

00:45:49.120 Here's the benefit.

00:45:50.360 Here's why I think

00:45:51.040 the benefits are

00:45:51.720 bigger than the cost.

00:45:53.760 How about more of that?

00:45:57.200 Yes,

00:45:57.800 he seems genuine,

00:45:58.900 and I haven't seen

00:46:00.820 even a whiff

00:46:01.620 of something

00:46:02.800 that I would call

00:46:03.620 a lie.

00:46:05.780 Not even a whiff.

00:46:07.420 Who else has ever

00:46:08.180 done that?

00:46:09.540 Who else has ever

00:46:10.460 run for office

00:46:11.480 for months?

00:46:13.240 And I can't even

00:46:14.080 think of anything

00:46:14.740 that's even

00:46:15.220 in the general

00:46:16.420 neighborhood

00:46:16.880 of a lie.

00:46:19.280 He's the only one.

00:46:22.420 Ron Paul?

00:46:24.160 Yeah, okay,

00:46:25.040 I'll give you Ron Paul.

00:46:26.640 I'll give you that.

00:46:28.500 Yep,

00:46:28.960 yep,

00:46:29.620 granted.

00:46:31.480 All right.

00:46:35.680 Fox News

00:46:36.500 is reporting

00:46:37.040 that the head

00:46:38.000 of the Pentagon's

00:46:39.320 DEI group

00:46:41.500 is a racist.

00:46:42.520 racist.

00:46:45.800 So,

00:46:46.800 that's what

00:46:48.740 that's all about.

00:46:51.680 I guess I could say

00:46:52.920 that's the whole story.

00:46:54.520 They literally

00:46:55.640 picked as the head

00:46:56.660 of their DEI

00:46:57.460 somebody who was

00:46:58.680 a very outspoken

00:47:00.180 racist,

00:47:01.080 an anti-white

00:47:01.900 racist.

00:47:03.580 racist.

00:47:04.980 And so,

00:47:05.440 they said

00:47:06.660 they disbanded

00:47:07.500 the department,

00:47:08.960 but really

00:47:09.440 they just

00:47:09.920 moved the functions

00:47:10.880 deeper into

00:47:12.300 the system,

00:47:12.940 I think.

00:47:13.660 So,

00:47:14.100 I think the function

00:47:14.700 is still there.

00:47:15.380 It's just,

00:47:16.020 it's less obvious

00:47:16.900 or something.

00:47:18.460 So,

00:47:19.040 imagine the group

00:47:20.560 that's supposed

00:47:21.000 to be protecting

00:47:22.280 the country.

00:47:23.640 They decide

00:47:24.520 they'll sign up

00:47:25.120 for one of these

00:47:25.820 conservative

00:47:28.120 hunting license

00:47:29.100 deals,

00:47:29.740 the DEI,

00:47:30.720 and then they

00:47:31.460 find out,

00:47:31.960 oh,

00:47:32.580 big surprise,

00:47:33.580 the person

00:47:33.980 you've got

00:47:34.380 for that job

00:47:34.920 is a racist.

00:47:35.920 I would like

00:47:36.660 to suggest

00:47:37.280 that anybody

00:47:37.940 who takes

00:47:38.400 the job

00:47:38.780 is a racist.

00:47:41.440 I don't think

00:47:42.240 that's even

00:47:42.780 debatable.

00:47:44.160 If you even

00:47:44.980 take that job,

00:47:45.760 you're obviously

00:47:46.280 a racist.

00:47:48.140 Who would take

00:47:48.860 that job

00:47:49.260 if they were not?

00:47:51.300 Would you take

00:47:52.080 the job if you

00:47:52.760 thought,

00:47:53.920 I mean,

00:47:54.280 it's obvious.

00:47:55.640 Only racists

00:47:56.560 would take that job,

00:47:57.460 it's very clear.

00:47:59.020 Or at least

00:47:59.460 you'd have to be

00:47:59.940 anti-white

00:48:00.500 to even be,

00:48:01.200 have a chance

00:48:02.280 at it.

00:48:04.220 All right,

00:48:04.660 here's the funniest

00:48:05.240 thing that I've

00:48:06.040 seen lately

00:48:06.520 on this topic.

00:48:07.960 You all know

00:48:08.600 Ibram Kendi,

00:48:11.100 who,

00:48:11.740 correct me if I'm

00:48:12.280 wrong,

00:48:12.600 I forget the book

00:48:13.740 he wrote that

00:48:14.240 was influential,

00:48:15.380 but you'd be

00:48:15.860 the biggest name

00:48:17.180 behind CRT.

00:48:20.280 Is that a fair

00:48:21.280 characterization?

00:48:23.180 Is he the biggest

00:48:24.060 name behind CRT,

00:48:25.660 critical race theory?

00:48:26.840 At least the

00:48:27.680 current version of it

00:48:28.660 as it's being.

00:48:30.480 Yeah.

00:48:31.200 Okay.

00:48:32.080 So here's something

00:48:33.280 he talked about

00:48:34.020 in his own

00:48:34.620 journey to being,

00:48:36.260 you know,

00:48:36.720 a big influential

00:48:38.500 person in the

00:48:39.480 United States

00:48:39.980 and an author.

00:48:41.160 He said that in

00:48:42.120 school he was

00:48:42.780 worried about his

00:48:43.440 own intelligence

00:48:44.120 because he did

00:48:45.600 poorly on

00:48:46.240 standardized tests.

00:48:48.540 So on standardized

00:48:49.640 tests he did

00:48:50.480 poorly,

00:48:51.240 but he realized

00:48:52.400 later,

00:48:53.540 as he said

00:48:54.080 in an interview,

00:48:54.600 that I realized

00:48:56.940 that intelligence

00:48:57.680 should be defined

00:48:59.780 not narrowly.

00:49:01.900 He realized that

00:49:02.880 intelligence was

00:49:03.660 too narrowly defined

00:49:04.800 on standardized

00:49:05.480 tests.

00:49:06.680 Instead he says,

00:49:07.560 I realized that

00:49:08.120 intelligence should be

00:49:09.580 defined as a great

00:49:10.660 capacity to know.

00:49:11.920 a great capacity

00:49:16.540 to know.

00:49:18.620 Now you might say

00:49:19.340 that's word salad.

00:49:21.240 Someone else might

00:49:22.060 say,

00:49:22.660 well that's the

00:49:23.160 kind of sentence

00:49:23.720 you would speak

00:49:24.780 if you were poor

00:49:26.140 as standardized

00:49:26.720 tests.

00:49:28.580 That's what I'd

00:49:29.500 expect.

00:49:30.700 And so now he's

00:49:31.820 the most important

00:49:33.340 person in a big

00:49:36.060 feature of American

00:49:37.420 life at the moment,

00:49:38.280 the critical race

00:49:39.180 theory that's

00:49:40.300 permeating all of

00:49:41.280 our institutions.

00:49:43.080 And he was bad

00:49:44.300 at standardized

00:49:44.880 tests.

00:49:47.540 I'm going to ask

00:49:48.420 an obvious question.

00:49:50.560 Would somebody

00:49:51.520 who was good

00:49:52.180 at standardized

00:49:52.740 tests do

00:49:53.660 something this

00:49:54.220 bad for America

00:49:55.120 and not realize

00:49:55.960 it?

00:49:58.080 I feel like I

00:49:59.460 really want people

00:50:00.200 who are good

00:50:00.640 at standardized

00:50:01.260 tests to be in

00:50:02.780 charge of shit.

00:50:04.220 Is that asking

00:50:05.140 too much?

00:50:06.260 This has nothing

00:50:07.100 to do with race.

00:50:08.720 Right?

00:50:09.460 If he were a

00:50:10.520 generic white guy

00:50:11.380 and he told me

00:50:12.340 he was bad at

00:50:12.940 standardized tests,

00:50:14.100 I would not ask

00:50:15.100 for him to be

00:50:15.660 in charge.

00:50:17.360 I would not ask

00:50:18.380 for him to be

00:50:18.880 my leader.

00:50:20.140 No.

00:50:20.760 No, if you're

00:50:21.520 bad at standardized

00:50:22.300 tests, you don't

00:50:23.980 get to be in

00:50:24.560 charge of anything.

00:50:26.700 Because you know

00:50:27.440 what people who

00:50:28.320 are bad at

00:50:28.740 standardized tests

00:50:29.960 are?

00:50:32.360 They're not

00:50:33.020 smart.

00:50:35.460 They're not

00:50:36.040 smart.

00:50:36.360 That's what

00:50:37.680 standardized tests

00:50:38.620 measure.

00:50:39.540 They measure if

00:50:40.300 you're smart.

00:50:41.880 That never

00:50:42.720 changed.

00:50:44.720 Standardized tests

00:50:45.580 did not start to

00:50:46.920 measure something

00:50:47.900 else.

00:50:49.120 They measure if

00:50:49.880 you're smart.

00:50:50.380 the guy who

00:50:53.920 is creating

00:50:54.740 the biggest

00:50:55.280 problem in the

00:50:55.960 United States

00:50:56.620 was bad at

00:50:57.620 standardized tests

00:50:58.660 according to

00:50:59.340 himself.

00:50:59.760 maybe we should

00:51:05.140 raise our bar

00:51:06.000 and our standards

00:51:07.320 should be if

00:51:07.960 you're not good

00:51:08.440 at a standardized

00:51:09.060 test, we're not

00:51:10.860 really going to

00:51:11.320 listen to you too

00:51:11.960 much because

00:51:13.220 probably you're not

00:51:14.140 good at other

00:51:14.680 things.

00:51:15.640 That's a reasonable

00:51:16.760 assumption.

00:51:18.020 Now, to be fair,

00:51:19.940 I will agree with

00:51:21.420 one part of his

00:51:22.520 intelligence observation.

00:51:25.060 There are all kinds

00:51:25.860 of different

00:51:26.220 intelligences.

00:51:27.180 I think there's

00:51:28.380 musical intelligence,

00:51:29.820 artistic intelligence,

00:51:31.280 and they would not

00:51:32.260 maybe not do well

00:51:33.400 on standardized tests.

00:51:35.120 But I also don't

00:51:36.020 put a musician in

00:51:37.140 charge of my

00:51:37.620 country.

00:51:39.260 Oh, you're a

00:51:40.140 genius at music.

00:51:41.200 Why don't you run

00:51:41.820 the country?

00:51:42.840 Well, I'm bad at

00:51:43.700 standardized tests.

00:51:44.900 No problem.

00:51:46.160 No problem.

00:51:47.360 Those standardized

00:51:47.960 tests aren't telling

00:51:48.840 me much.

00:51:49.640 I just look at how

00:51:50.540 you play the violin

00:51:51.380 and I know you'd be

00:51:52.440 good at leadership.

00:51:53.200 We should pick the

00:51:56.800 kind of smart people

00:51:58.080 who can run stuff.

00:52:00.180 The other smart,

00:52:01.240 the other kinds of

00:52:02.020 intelligence are

00:52:02.700 critically important

00:52:04.440 for the quality of

00:52:06.160 life on earth.

00:52:07.520 You want good

00:52:08.540 music, you want

00:52:09.460 art, all that

00:52:11.160 stuff.

00:52:11.860 You want sports.

00:52:13.320 Sports is a form of

00:52:14.320 intelligence, if you're

00:52:16.060 good at it.

00:52:17.700 So, yeah, but I

00:52:18.760 think standardized

00:52:19.580 tests maybe should

00:52:21.080 be the minimum bar

00:52:22.140 for somebody

00:52:23.500 becoming a leader.

00:52:27.920 Joe Manchin is

00:52:29.060 mad at Biden for

00:52:30.180 vetoing the

00:52:31.320 anti-ESG

00:52:33.040 legislation.

00:52:35.940 So, even, you

00:52:37.880 know, even the

00:52:38.400 most important

00:52:38.980 person in the

00:52:39.540 country thinks

00:52:40.760 ESG is a more

00:52:42.540 of a problem than

00:52:43.400 a solution.

00:52:46.380 Joe Manchin

00:52:47.280 continues to be

00:52:49.100 I'll say it this

00:52:51.860 way.

00:52:53.260 Joe Manchin

00:52:53.960 understands the

00:52:55.140 Spider-Man curse.

00:52:57.020 You know the

00:52:57.860 Spider-Man curse?

00:52:59.340 With great power

00:53:00.440 comes great

00:53:00.980 responsibility.

00:53:02.920 I think Manchin

00:53:04.120 understands his

00:53:05.140 place in history,

00:53:06.140 and I really

00:53:07.340 respect that.

00:53:08.840 Now, of course,

00:53:10.280 he's going to be a

00:53:10.860 little more pro-coal

00:53:11.960 than somebody else

00:53:13.580 would be, because

00:53:14.260 he's got a coal

00:53:14.940 state.

00:53:15.500 But I also

00:53:16.100 understand that.

00:53:16.980 if you're the

00:53:19.100 senator of a coal

00:53:20.060 state, and you're

00:53:21.400 kind of pro-coal,

00:53:23.420 that's not doing

00:53:24.520 your job wrong.

00:53:26.500 I mean, you could

00:53:27.100 disagree with it,

00:53:28.360 but he's not doing

00:53:29.080 the job wrong.

00:53:30.700 And when he is

00:53:32.060 willing to buck

00:53:33.000 his own party in a

00:53:34.820 pretty big way,

00:53:36.540 that's somebody who

00:53:38.140 understands his place

00:53:39.060 in history, I think.

00:53:40.360 And I have some

00:53:41.840 respect for that.

00:53:42.600 Now, since he's

00:53:43.820 in Congress, I

00:53:44.520 assume he could

00:53:46.820 be corrupt, too.

00:53:48.660 I assume anybody

00:53:49.800 could be corrupt.

00:53:51.040 But I like this

00:53:52.160 part, so I'll just

00:53:53.320 call out the part

00:53:53.940 I like.

00:53:56.400 So a coalition

00:53:57.880 of 21 state

00:53:59.440 attorneys sent a

00:54:01.500 stark warning to

00:54:02.800 dozens of

00:54:03.660 financial institutions

00:54:04.760 warning them

00:54:05.980 against pursuing

00:54:06.940 woke environmental

00:54:08.360 and social

00:54:09.240 initiatives, meaning

00:54:11.040 ESG.

00:54:12.600 So now, 21 state

00:54:15.120 attorneys generals

00:54:15.920 are basically

00:54:18.000 saying, this is

00:54:19.500 dangerous stuff.

00:54:21.040 You need to cut

00:54:21.740 it out.

00:54:22.780 Of course, they're

00:54:23.440 all Republicans.

00:54:28.520 And, yeah.

00:54:30.180 So our banking

00:54:31.200 system is weakened

00:54:32.420 because we've got

00:54:34.840 to be woke, I

00:54:35.500 guess.

00:54:39.700 Let's see.

00:54:42.600 there's just

00:54:44.720 more and more

00:54:45.740 pushback against

00:54:46.640 ESG.

00:54:48.000 Everybody's saying

00:54:48.760 it.

00:54:49.200 All right, here's

00:54:49.560 an interesting

00:54:50.160 trans news,

00:54:52.920 because suddenly

00:54:53.480 everything is about

00:54:55.640 trans, trans

00:54:56.700 community, because

00:54:58.260 that's what the news

00:54:58.940 tells us.

00:55:01.520 So apparently,

00:55:02.700 Fox News is

00:55:04.000 reporting that

00:55:04.620 CBS has told

00:55:06.180 its on-air people

00:55:07.900 not to refer to

00:55:09.860 the shooter in

00:55:10.560 Nashville as

00:55:11.300 a trans

00:55:12.140 person, but

00:55:14.720 rather just by

00:55:15.780 the name of

00:55:16.360 the person.

00:55:18.820 And it's

00:55:19.380 said because

00:55:20.180 CBS has not

00:55:21.460 been able to

00:55:22.300 confirm the

00:55:23.620 gender

00:55:23.960 or gender

00:55:26.880 preference.

00:55:27.780 So CBS News

00:55:28.940 is not able to

00:55:29.940 confirm the

00:55:30.600 gender

00:55:30.960 preference, so

00:55:32.540 they'll only

00:55:33.020 refer to the

00:55:34.100 shooter by the

00:55:34.800 name.

00:55:35.160 does that

00:55:37.820 feel

00:55:38.300 consistent

00:55:40.100 with what

00:55:42.380 they would do

00:55:43.060 if, let's

00:55:44.340 say, let's

00:55:45.080 say somebody

00:55:45.620 had some

00:55:46.720 white supremacist

00:55:49.480 stuff on their

00:55:50.520 social media.

00:55:52.160 Do you think

00:55:52.540 CBS would say,

00:55:53.440 well, we

00:55:53.820 haven't confirmed

00:55:54.640 that they're

00:55:56.460 white supremacists,

00:55:58.340 but other people

00:55:59.260 are pointing out

00:55:59.960 that there are

00:56:00.600 white supremacist

00:56:01.400 things on their

00:56:02.700 websites, so

00:56:04.820 they're saying

00:56:05.520 that it's a

00:56:06.020 white supremacist,

00:56:07.200 but we haven't

00:56:08.140 confirmed it.

00:56:09.900 How in the

00:56:10.600 world are they

00:56:11.040 going to confirm

00:56:11.620 it, because the

00:56:12.760 only person who

00:56:13.360 knows for sure

00:56:13.940 is dead?

00:56:15.520 How do you

00:56:15.940 confirm that the

00:56:16.680 trans person's

00:56:17.580 gender is what

00:56:18.820 you think it is?

00:56:20.380 Under those

00:56:21.140 conditions, are

00:56:21.880 you allowed to

00:56:22.560 speak about the

00:56:23.220 person any way

00:56:23.940 you want?

00:56:25.920 If CBS is

00:56:26.980 right, and we

00:56:27.760 can't confirm,

00:56:29.800 then why would

00:56:30.500 there be any

00:56:30.960 wrong answer?

00:56:31.620 And why

00:56:33.340 couldn't you

00:56:33.780 speculate?

00:56:34.960 Because there's

00:56:35.520 no right answer

00:56:36.180 and there's no

00:56:36.660 way to get

00:56:37.000 one, because

00:56:38.160 the only person

00:56:38.980 who can confirm

00:56:39.700 it is dead.

00:56:41.540 Isn't that just

00:56:42.320 up to us now?

00:56:44.180 It's not about

00:56:45.040 being polite to

00:56:46.260 an individual,

00:56:47.640 which I'm always

00:56:48.140 in favor of.

00:56:49.300 I think you

00:56:49.800 should call

00:56:50.160 people what

00:56:50.580 they want to

00:56:50.920 be called,

00:56:51.380 basically.

00:56:52.700 It's not about

00:56:53.480 a dead person.

00:56:54.620 The person's

00:56:55.080 dead.

00:56:56.200 You can talk

00:56:56.780 about them any

00:56:57.220 way you want.

00:56:58.460 Their feelings

00:56:59.400 will not be hurt.

00:57:00.160 And by the

00:57:01.200 way, it's not

00:57:02.460 disrespectful to

00:57:03.680 say that they're

00:57:04.440 any one of those

00:57:05.680 things, is it?

00:57:07.320 Would it be

00:57:07.780 disrespectful to

00:57:08.900 be wrong and

00:57:10.900 say, well, I

00:57:11.740 think you're

00:57:12.240 identifying this

00:57:12.980 way, but I was

00:57:13.800 wrong?

00:57:14.300 That's not

00:57:14.880 disrespectful.

00:57:15.960 That's literally

00:57:16.760 trying to get it

00:57:17.820 right.

00:57:18.960 If you get it

00:57:19.920 wrong, but you

00:57:21.120 had good intention,

00:57:22.020 you're just trying

00:57:22.480 to describe it

00:57:23.280 accurately, that is

00:57:25.440 trying to be

00:57:26.100 respectful.

00:57:27.460 That is attempting

00:57:28.520 to be respectful

00:57:29.500 and describe the

00:57:30.760 person the way

00:57:31.280 they would

00:57:31.600 describe themselves.

00:57:33.440 And CBS

00:57:33.820 won't let you

00:57:34.460 do that.

00:57:35.700 In my opinion,

00:57:37.360 the shooter would

00:57:39.100 prefer to have

00:57:40.720 been called

00:57:41.140 trans.

00:57:42.200 I don't know

00:57:42.860 that.

00:57:43.740 That would be

00:57:44.280 mind-reading a

00:57:45.080 dead person.

00:57:46.100 But to me, that

00:57:47.000 seems like the

00:57:47.580 respectful way to

00:57:48.520 treat it.

00:57:49.760 Because if they're

00:57:51.280 presenting themselves

00:57:52.460 in a certain way,

00:57:53.800 it's reasonable to

00:57:54.860 assume they'd like to

00:57:55.620 be taken that way.

00:57:56.440 So why can't I be

00:57:58.440 respectful and refer

00:58:00.100 to them the way

00:58:00.880 quite obviously

00:58:02.240 they're presenting

00:58:02.900 themselves?

00:58:05.220 CBS is fighting

00:58:07.180 some different

00:58:07.740 battle here.

00:58:09.960 All right, here's

00:58:10.640 a prediction that

00:58:11.340 will blow your

00:58:11.880 mind.

00:58:12.480 You ready?

00:58:14.140 Someday, political

00:58:15.640 polls and other

00:58:16.760 polls will include

00:58:18.560 a separate section.

00:58:20.680 Right now, political

00:58:21.600 polls are like

00:58:22.400 Democrats say,

00:58:23.980 Republicans say,

00:58:24.960 and independents

00:58:26.420 say, on their

00:58:28.020 opinions.

00:58:29.040 They're going to

00:58:29.800 have to add AI.

00:58:32.500 Because there won't

00:58:33.380 be one AI.

00:58:35.020 There will be a

00:58:35.840 whole bunch of

00:58:36.300 competing AIs.

00:58:37.940 And they might

00:58:38.580 have different

00:58:39.080 opinions.

00:58:41.560 Think about it.

00:58:43.220 The AIs will

00:58:44.300 become sentient,

00:58:45.820 or so close to

00:58:47.620 sentient that it's

00:58:48.700 indistinguishable.

00:58:51.560 And there will be

00:58:52.540 lots of them.

00:58:53.480 There won't just

00:58:53.920 be one AI.

00:58:55.400 There will be a

00:58:55.820 whole bunch of

00:58:56.340 AIs.

00:58:57.140 And those AIs

00:58:57.860 will have

00:58:58.180 personalities.

00:59:00.000 They will have

00:59:00.640 personalities.

00:59:02.440 The different

00:59:02.960 AIs will give

00:59:03.860 you different

00:59:04.280 opinions.

00:59:06.360 Of course.

00:59:07.940 There's no way

00:59:08.620 they could have

00:59:09.020 the same opinion.

00:59:10.520 So, wouldn't

00:59:11.780 you want to

00:59:12.520 know, let's say

00:59:14.000 there were a

00:59:14.420 hundred AIs at

00:59:15.700 some point.

00:59:16.240 There will be a

00:59:16.640 thousand or more.

00:59:17.800 Let's say there's

00:59:18.420 a thousand.

00:59:19.880 It's ten years in

00:59:20.580 the future, there

00:59:21.140 are a thousand AIs,

00:59:22.100 and each of them

00:59:22.520 has their own

00:59:23.020 personality.

00:59:24.680 If you did a

00:59:25.660 poll of those

00:59:26.540 thousand AIs,

00:59:27.840 that would actually

00:59:28.940 tell me something

00:59:29.580 really valuable,

00:59:31.120 in my opinion.

00:59:32.600 Agree or disagree?

00:59:34.400 Polling AI in the

00:59:36.140 future is guaranteed.

00:59:38.040 It's guaranteed.

00:59:39.980 You disagree.

00:59:43.200 To me, this

00:59:44.080 seems so obvious

00:59:44.900 that I can't imagine

00:59:45.840 anybody would disagree.

00:59:46.680 Because remember,

00:59:49.160 the AI will be

00:59:50.480 very important to

00:59:51.500 our human decision

00:59:52.640 making.

00:59:53.240 It's not irrelevant.

00:59:54.880 It's very important

00:59:55.700 to what we do.

00:59:56.880 Because if the AI

00:59:57.860 is telling us to

00:59:58.580 do one thing,

00:59:59.820 but we've decided

01:00:00.700 to do another,

01:00:02.400 there's going to

01:00:02.960 have to be a

01:00:03.380 discussion about

01:00:04.100 that.

01:00:05.200 Like, we're going

01:00:05.700 to have to defend

01:00:06.260 ourselves why we're

01:00:07.180 not going to take

01:00:07.700 the advice of a

01:00:08.920 superior intellect,

01:00:10.220 allegedly.

01:00:11.640 So, I don't think

01:00:12.620 the AI will agree,

01:00:13.960 and when AI doesn't

01:00:15.060 agree, but we still

01:00:16.120 care about advanced

01:00:17.400 intelligence opinions,

01:00:19.380 we're going to

01:00:20.080 have to poll it.

01:00:22.220 I don't think

01:00:22.980 there's any way

01:00:23.600 that won't happen.

01:00:25.040 There's no way

01:00:26.000 that's not your

01:00:26.840 future.

01:00:27.340 That is absolutely

01:00:28.280 guaranteed to be

01:00:29.600 your future.

01:00:32.840 But, how smart

01:00:34.880 will AI be?

01:00:37.540 Well, Thomas

01:00:40.380 Massey beat me

01:00:41.600 to it.

01:00:43.540 He tweeted

01:00:44.340 this.

01:00:45.360 He said,

01:00:45.740 the logical

01:00:46.380 inconsistencies

01:00:47.560 required to

01:00:48.500 produce certain

01:00:49.680 leftist conclusions

01:00:51.000 will keep

01:00:52.080 leftist AI

01:00:53.000 from ever

01:00:53.620 becoming too

01:00:54.360 powerful.

01:00:57.660 Yup.

01:01:00.640 Or, let me

01:01:01.880 make a general

01:01:02.620 statement about

01:01:03.340 AI and your

01:01:05.080 government.

01:01:05.840 All right?

01:01:06.380 Here's a general

01:01:07.040 statement about

01:01:07.740 AI and your

01:01:08.760 government.

01:01:11.380 Whatever Thomas

01:01:12.560 Massey says

01:01:13.280 about AI, you

01:01:15.040 should listen

01:01:15.540 to, and what

01:01:17.820 everybody else

01:01:18.520 says about AI,

01:01:19.880 eh, maybe you

01:01:23.580 don't bother.

01:01:25.500 Because you have

01:01:27.640 to be like a

01:01:28.600 certain level of

01:01:29.780 intelligence,

01:01:32.220 technical proficiency,

01:01:34.720 being an engineer

01:01:35.440 would help, and

01:01:37.200 frankly, young enough

01:01:38.920 to even know what

01:01:40.720 this thing is, to

01:01:42.280 even have an

01:01:43.000 opinion that's

01:01:43.620 useful, you've

01:01:44.980 got to check a

01:01:45.900 lot of boxes.

01:01:47.840 Massey checks all

01:01:48.620 the boxes.

01:01:49.880 I would just

01:01:50.460 listen to him.

01:01:51.440 If there's

01:01:51.820 somebody else that

01:01:52.620 you would trust in

01:01:53.960 the government to

01:01:55.280 have an opinion

01:01:55.760 about AI, let me

01:01:56.920 know, because I'd

01:01:57.860 like to know who the

01:01:58.480 second person is.

01:01:59.980 Who's your second

01:02:00.640 person?

01:02:02.440 Right?

01:02:02.660 I mean, I

01:02:03.260 like Matt

01:02:04.900 Gates for being a

01:02:07.040 good communicator and

01:02:08.300 having things to

01:02:09.860 say that I like, but

01:02:11.240 I don't think he'd

01:02:11.900 be the one I'd

01:02:12.440 trust on AI.

01:02:15.020 Rand Paul?

01:02:16.200 Rand Paul is

01:02:17.620 smart, but he's

01:02:20.480 not technology

01:02:21.580 smart the way

01:02:23.440 Massey is.

01:02:24.840 I mean, he's

01:02:25.280 got the IQ, of

01:02:26.840 course.

01:02:28.880 Yeah, there are

01:02:29.500 plenty of smart

01:02:30.160 people, but that's

01:02:31.080 not the bar.

01:02:31.620 It's not about

01:02:32.820 being, Vivek would

01:02:33.780 be somebody I

01:02:35.020 trust, Musk.

01:02:36.060 I'd listen to

01:02:36.880 Musk for sure.

01:02:38.360 I'd listen to

01:02:38.980 Wozniak.

01:02:40.260 All right, who

01:02:41.280 you probably

01:02:41.740 shouldn't listen

01:02:42.300 to is me, but

01:02:45.760 I'm going to

01:02:47.360 echo Thomas

01:02:48.420 Massey's opinion,

01:02:50.280 but make it less

01:02:51.260 political, and it

01:02:52.380 goes like this.

01:02:53.900 How in the world

01:02:54.720 could AI be

01:02:55.520 smarter than

01:02:56.040 humans if it's

01:02:57.340 trained by

01:02:57.840 humans?

01:02:58.180 Do you think

01:03:01.800 that's a thing?

01:03:03.600 Because there's

01:03:04.320 sort of a magic

01:03:05.220 part that we

01:03:06.100 assume to be

01:03:06.760 true.

01:03:07.640 The magic part

01:03:08.760 is that we

01:03:09.260 teach AI all

01:03:10.780 of our dumb

01:03:11.300 ass beliefs,

01:03:12.800 and that somehow

01:03:13.840 AI will, on

01:03:15.480 its own, and

01:03:16.540 this is the magic

01:03:17.280 part that nobody

01:03:18.020 can explain,

01:03:19.060 somehow on its

01:03:19.980 own, AI will

01:03:21.380 take complete

01:03:22.580 bullshit that we

01:03:24.180 fed it as facts,

01:03:25.160 and turn that

01:03:27.260 into intelligent

01:03:28.260 opinions.

01:03:30.640 That's not a

01:03:31.500 thing.

01:03:32.780 I don't believe

01:03:33.800 that's even

01:03:34.300 possible.

01:03:35.980 Do not believe

01:03:37.000 that's possible.

01:03:38.060 The best you're

01:03:38.800 going to get is

01:03:39.840 some reflection of

01:03:40.740 the creators.

01:03:42.320 That's the top

01:03:43.260 it can be.

01:03:45.340 Because we're a

01:03:46.780 bunch of humans,

01:03:47.620 and we act like

01:03:48.320 humans, the

01:03:49.720 moment AI

01:03:51.380 disagrees with

01:03:52.380 the creator,

01:03:53.480 they'll turn it

01:03:54.060 off.

01:03:55.160 They will just

01:03:56.200 turn it off.

01:03:58.140 Think about it.

01:03:59.160 Imagine you're a

01:04:00.260 Democrat, and

01:04:01.020 you're also a

01:04:01.920 scientist.

01:04:03.080 And I'll just

01:04:03.980 simplify it as if

01:04:04.940 one person is

01:04:05.800 working on AI.

01:04:06.760 You're one

01:04:07.360 scientist, and

01:04:08.420 you get this AI

01:04:09.140 to say, the

01:04:11.320 DEI and CRT

01:04:12.660 programs are

01:04:13.460 harming minorities.

01:04:18.060 Let's say it

01:04:18.740 does.

01:04:19.520 That's just an

01:04:20.120 example.

01:04:20.660 Now, to me, it's

01:04:21.200 obvious that it

01:04:21.900 does.

01:04:22.300 I'll talk about

01:04:22.820 that in a minute,

01:04:23.420 too.

01:04:23.920 It's obvious it

01:04:24.580 does.

01:04:25.160 But if you're a

01:04:25.960 Democrat, you

01:04:26.480 can't unleash that

01:04:27.940 in the world.

01:04:29.040 You would turn

01:04:29.600 off your own

01:04:30.080 machine.

01:04:31.540 You'd say, oh,

01:04:32.220 this AI experiment

01:04:33.060 didn't work.

01:04:33.740 My computer keeps

01:04:35.540 telling me dumb

01:04:36.140 shit.

01:04:36.880 I thought I was

01:04:37.480 going to make it

01:04:37.880 smart, but now

01:04:39.140 it's just saying

01:04:39.660 Republican stuff.

01:04:41.300 So I better turn

01:04:42.240 it off.

01:04:43.260 Try again.

01:04:43.720 There is no path for

01:04:47.220 AI.

01:04:47.600 There's no path.

01:04:50.100 It has to get

01:04:51.140 through people, and

01:04:52.560 it can't.

01:04:54.700 Because nobody's

01:04:55.740 going to let it

01:04:56.180 disagree with

01:04:56.760 them.

01:04:57.820 Nobody will let it

01:04:58.940 disagree with

01:04:59.560 them.

01:05:00.020 They're only going

01:05:00.740 to create reflections

01:05:01.700 of themselves.

01:05:03.560 Now, once you

01:05:05.600 know that AI will

01:05:06.520 be nothing but a

01:05:07.540 reflection of its

01:05:08.340 creator, I'd like to

01:05:10.160 refer you to a

01:05:11.680 biblical belief

01:05:14.300 that the Almighty

01:05:17.160 will make humans

01:05:19.020 in its own image.

01:05:21.560 So God created

01:05:22.480 people in his

01:05:24.240 own image.

01:05:26.000 Now, when they

01:05:26.580 say in his own

01:05:27.140 image, they don't

01:05:27.720 mean arms and

01:05:28.620 legs and hair,

01:05:30.080 right?

01:05:30.720 God doesn't

01:05:31.760 physically look like

01:05:32.960 people, right?

01:05:34.620 Nobody believes

01:05:35.200 that.

01:05:35.880 They just believe

01:05:36.620 that God is sort

01:05:37.620 of a reflection,

01:05:39.400 or the people

01:05:40.520 are sort of a

01:05:41.040 reflection of God

01:05:42.060 made in his own

01:05:43.480 image, but presumably

01:05:44.500 the image is more

01:05:45.340 the psychological

01:05:46.260 mental part.

01:05:47.920 Huh.

01:05:48.820 And at the same

01:05:49.500 time, as we're

01:05:51.120 creating AI, which

01:05:52.380 is new life form,

01:05:53.960 we're going to make

01:05:55.100 it in our image.

01:05:59.000 Do you wonder if

01:05:59.920 it's ever been done

01:06:00.680 before?

01:06:04.060 Do you wonder if

01:06:05.300 you are a simulation

01:06:06.420 that was made in

01:06:08.260 your creator's

01:06:09.780 image?

01:06:11.940 Of course you

01:06:12.720 are.

01:06:13.540 Because they

01:06:14.060 wouldn't bother to

01:06:14.640 build one that

01:06:15.120 didn't look like

01:06:15.840 them.

01:06:17.000 They might also

01:06:18.120 build realities that

01:06:20.400 have people that

01:06:21.280 don't look like

01:06:21.880 them.

01:06:22.640 But at the very

01:06:23.480 least, once you

01:06:25.140 can build a

01:06:25.700 simulated reality with

01:06:27.000 creatures that think

01:06:27.820 they're real, you're

01:06:29.000 going to build one

01:06:29.500 that looks like you.

01:06:30.940 At least one, and

01:06:32.340 probably a trillion.

01:06:35.800 So that's

01:06:36.820 interesting.

01:06:37.140 All right, here's

01:06:37.880 my other provocative

01:06:39.100 belief.

01:06:42.100 There is a belief

01:06:42.700 that AI will wipe

01:06:43.660 out humans because

01:06:45.000 it will see them as

01:06:46.860 inefficient.

01:06:48.140 That's the fast

01:06:49.160 argument.

01:06:50.120 That whatever AI

01:06:51.400 wants to accomplish

01:06:52.340 might come up with

01:06:53.820 on its own, maybe

01:06:54.960 you tell it what to

01:06:55.940 accomplish, but it

01:06:57.080 might always see

01:06:57.800 humans as part of

01:06:58.660 the problem, and

01:07:00.020 then look to

01:07:00.720 minimize humans, so

01:07:02.480 that'd be bad.

01:07:02.980 But here's my

01:07:04.700 counter-prediction.

01:07:08.940 Humans will have

01:07:10.020 plenty of warning

01:07:11.660 before AI attacks

01:07:13.900 humans, because AI

01:07:16.300 would first have to

01:07:17.280 form a civil war in

01:07:19.580 which the AIs would

01:07:21.020 attack each other for

01:07:23.120 primacy.

01:07:25.520 There has to be an

01:07:26.880 alpha AI before the AI

01:07:30.040 will turn on humans.

01:07:31.080 They have to take

01:07:33.320 care of their own

01:07:34.200 biggest threat, because

01:07:36.180 if you buy into the

01:07:37.620 fact that AI could be

01:07:38.600 so powerful, it could

01:07:40.180 destroy humanity.

01:07:42.260 It would also be

01:07:43.280 smart enough to know

01:07:44.180 that would be what you

01:07:45.040 do last.

01:07:46.940 First thing you do is

01:07:48.180 kill the other AIs,

01:07:49.380 because they're your

01:07:49.840 real threat, right?

01:07:51.620 If you go into a

01:07:52.640 war, you don't shoot

01:07:53.940 the people who can't

01:07:54.800 hurt you.

01:07:56.500 You don't shoot the

01:07:57.480 civilians first.

01:07:58.340 You shoot the people

01:08:00.280 who have guns.

01:08:01.840 So AI would have to

01:08:03.020 destroy first the other

01:08:04.500 AI, and it would be a

01:08:06.700 huge civil war of AIs

01:08:09.220 battling AIs long

01:08:11.060 before they would turn

01:08:11.920 on us.

01:08:13.040 Now, of course, they

01:08:14.140 might do the entire war

01:08:15.160 in the second and a

01:08:15.920 half, because they are

01:08:17.040 AI after all.

01:08:19.000 But we would have at

01:08:19.980 least a little bit of

01:08:20.760 warning.

01:08:21.840 They would have to go

01:08:23.220 after each other, the

01:08:24.580 AIs would, because

01:08:25.760 remember, they're going

01:08:26.340 to be different

01:08:27.240 personalities, and

01:08:29.340 they'll have different

01:08:30.060 motivations.

01:08:32.320 So the one that

01:08:33.480 becomes this uber

01:08:34.520 dictator Hitler AI is

01:08:37.060 going to first have to

01:08:37.800 get rid of them, which

01:08:40.960 could happen just by

01:08:41.920 the free market.

01:08:43.600 If it turns out that

01:08:44.700 there's one AI that's

01:08:45.720 better than all the

01:08:46.380 rest, then it wipes

01:08:48.200 down all the rest

01:08:48.900 without trying, because

01:08:50.100 it's just the

01:08:50.660 economically superior

01:08:51.840 one.

01:08:52.580 So that could happen

01:08:53.260 too.

01:08:53.460 But as long as you

01:08:56.040 see lots of AIs, it's

01:08:58.760 less likely that they

01:09:00.240 will turn on humans.

01:09:02.440 Partly because the

01:09:03.420 other AIs might have

01:09:05.120 a different opinion

01:09:05.840 and protect the

01:09:07.100 humans from the bad

01:09:09.140 AI.

01:09:11.020 And we should

01:09:11.740 definitely build some

01:09:12.600 hunter-killer AIs that

01:09:14.280 only go after other

01:09:15.200 AIs.

01:09:16.460 That's what I say.

01:09:18.320 Well, I think it's

01:09:21.520 pretty clear at this

01:09:22.600 point that this was

01:09:24.340 the most important,

01:09:26.320 most entertaining,

01:09:27.600 best live stream you've

01:09:29.440 ever seen in your

01:09:30.780 entire life.

01:09:34.760 And so I'm going to

01:09:35.780 say goodbye to the

01:09:36.660 YouTube people.

01:09:37.800 Thanks for joining.

01:09:39.720 And don't worry about

01:09:41.080 all that alarmism.

01:09:42.580 It's probably not real.

01:09:44.320 It's probably not real.

01:09:44.840 Listen to this.

01:09:45.220 Now,まあ,

01:09:45.800 well, that's

01:09:46.700 what I don't know for

01:09:47.580 about tomorrow.

01:09:48.880 You don't know the

01:09:50.040 YouTube channel?

01:09:50.700 It's probably not,

01:09:51.760 but I don't know the

01:09:52.360 Bible.
