Transcript

00:00:00.000 Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of civilization.
00:00:05.920 It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and it's also Father's Day.
00:00:11.660 Happy Father's Day, all you mofos.
00:00:16.900 If you'd like to take your Father's Day up to a level that nobody's ever experienced before
00:00:21.540 in the history of Father's Day, all you need is a cup or mug or a glass, a tank or chalice
00:00:25.700 stein, a canteen jug or flask, a vessel of any kind, fill it with your favorite liquid.
00:00:32.260 I like coffee.
00:00:33.740 And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine the other day, a thing that
00:00:36.780 makes everything better.
00:00:39.240 It's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now.
00:00:42.940 Go.
00:00:48.140 Ah, oh, good meme.
00:00:50.080 There's a meme of me drinking coffee with my Dilbert characters.
00:00:55.700 Oh, you poor YouTube people, don't you wish you saw all the great memes that are going
00:01:00.260 by right now on the locals' platform?
00:01:03.360 All the YouTubers don't get to see them.
00:01:05.040 Sorry.
00:01:06.060 Sorry.
00:01:07.640 So, as you know, it is Father's Day, and that's the day we celebrate the trans community.
00:01:14.680 So, for all of the people who are fathers, no matter how they were born, we'd like to make
00:01:23.900 this more about the trans community and less about the fathers.
00:01:29.720 It's more about the trans.
00:01:31.500 I think you'd all agree that that should be the focus for today.
00:01:34.820 All right, did you know, let me give you a little teaser for today's live stream.
00:01:46.140 I'm pretty sure I'm living in a simulation in which the simulation is responding to my,
00:01:53.720 I don't know, responding to my affirmations or something.
00:01:59.160 There's something weird about the news today.
00:02:01.660 I wonder if you can find the pattern.
00:02:05.460 Oh, maybe that's the way I'll do it.
00:02:07.780 Now you won't find the pattern.
00:02:10.420 There's something about the news today that looks very much like I caused most of it.
00:02:16.300 So, that's the theme.
00:02:18.760 It's going to look like I caused most of the news today.
00:02:23.100 Now, that doesn't mean I did.
00:02:25.220 I'm not saying I did.
00:02:26.940 I'm saying it's going to look like that, and it's going to be weird.
00:02:29.440 Now, the only people who are going to notice it are the people who have watched me for a long time,
00:02:35.500 because they know what things I've tried to persuade.
00:02:38.260 But wait till you hear the news today.
00:02:40.920 All right, on CNN, apparently there's a big trend called Internet dads,
00:02:47.720 and it's actually men actually pretending to be your dad online.
00:02:51.220 So, there are really big accounts, millions of viewers,
00:02:56.700 and one of them is just a black guy who eats food with you.
00:03:03.000 So, he just has dinner with you.
00:03:04.800 He just gets his plate out and makes a sandwich or whatever,
00:03:08.220 and he just sits down and talks to you like your dad.
00:03:12.280 And he's an Internet dad.
00:03:13.800 And apparently there are a number of accounts like this, and they're huge.
00:03:16.480 Internet dads, it's a thing.
00:03:22.520 All right.
00:03:25.060 And it's funny what the Internet dads do.
00:03:27.920 I saw one of them, a little clip,
00:03:29.920 and it was just somebody talking to the camera saying,
00:03:32.460 I'm very proud of you.
00:03:34.740 I wonder if that works.
00:03:37.080 It probably does.
00:03:38.340 Probably if people get used to a character,
00:03:40.800 even if they're just talking to the screen and they say,
00:03:43.040 I'm proud of you, it probably does work, a little bit.
00:03:47.740 All right.
00:03:48.380 So, I've told you Internet dads would be huge, and here it is.
00:03:53.140 Lauren Bobert.
00:03:55.540 Bobert.
00:03:57.460 Bobert.
00:03:59.360 Dogbert.
00:04:00.320 Dilbert.
00:04:01.840 Ratbert.
00:04:02.520 Catbert.
00:04:04.200 Bobert.
00:04:05.500 Bobert.
00:04:06.600 Representative Lauren Bobert is introducing articles of impeachment
00:04:09.780 impeachment for Joe Biden based on his not protecting the border
00:04:13.900 as his constitutional duty requires.
00:04:17.800 Requires.
00:04:19.360 Do you think that'll go far?
00:04:21.840 The articles of impeachment?
00:04:24.540 No.
00:04:25.840 No, that won't go far.
00:04:27.340 However, I do like that she's introducing them,
00:04:30.920 calls attention to a very big issue, the border.
00:04:34.620 And, you know, it's stunting and it's persuasion
00:04:39.420 and it's not too serious in terms of legislation,
00:04:42.180 but I like it.
00:04:44.080 I think she does a good job of getting attention for her points of view.
00:04:49.500 And I'm never against getting attention.
00:04:53.360 In The Hill, there is an article talking about a fringe idea.
00:04:59.260 Well, there's a fringe idea coming out of the Republican side,
00:05:04.000 a fringe idea.
00:05:05.900 If you haven't read the article,
00:05:08.080 don't cheat if you've read the article.
00:05:10.040 If you haven't read the article on The Hill,
00:05:11.680 what do you think they're talking about
00:05:12.940 is the fringe idea from the Republicans.
00:05:18.220 Fringe.
00:05:19.760 The fringe idea is using the military to attack the cartels.
00:05:24.900 It's a fringe idea.
00:05:27.000 Which they go on to explain that five of the six major candidates
00:05:31.040 for the Republican Party favor it.
00:05:35.000 Yes, DeSantis is a little ambiguous about using the military,
00:05:39.160 which removes him from consideration, in my opinion.
00:05:43.760 Because I only want...
00:05:45.220 I'm a single-issue voter on fentanyl.
00:05:47.960 So DeSantis is great, by the way.
00:05:50.640 I think he's a very, very capable politician.
00:05:53.740 But I'm just a one-issue voter this specific election,
00:05:57.740 just on fentanyl.
00:05:58.540 And would you say that if five out of the six of the major candidates
00:06:07.760 for the Republican Party,
00:06:09.820 five out of six are in favor of using the military,
00:06:13.200 and The Hill calls it a fringe idea,
00:06:16.000 what would be a non-fringe idea?
00:06:18.980 Something that Democrats are in favor of?
00:06:21.180 Is that by definition?
00:06:24.900 If five out of six Democrat candidates for president
00:06:28.620 were in favor of the same thing,
00:06:30.680 would that be called fringe?
00:06:32.740 Five out of six of the candidates?
00:06:34.800 What do you think?
00:06:36.320 I think no.
00:06:38.440 And by the way, on the Republican side,
00:06:41.160 it's not just five out of six.
00:06:43.560 It includes the one who's going to win.
00:06:46.360 At least the primary.
00:06:47.920 You know, Trump.
00:06:49.020 In all likelihood, if you believe the polls.
00:06:51.680 I think there's a lot of...
00:06:52.940 A lot will change,
00:06:54.060 so I'm not sure he's going to win even the primary,
00:06:57.460 you know, if he has legal problems, etc.
00:06:59.720 Probably.
00:07:00.660 Most likely he will.
00:07:02.320 Can't guarantee it, though.
00:07:03.340 However, that's fringe.
00:07:06.580 There's your fringe idea, five out of six.
00:07:09.660 But I wanted to see if it included the arguments against it.
00:07:14.180 And there are some strong arguments against using the military.
00:07:18.220 Here's one of them.
00:07:19.500 The Mexican government might not like it.
00:07:26.020 The Mexican government not liking it is the idea.
00:07:30.680 No, it's not the side effect.
00:07:34.500 It's not the side effect.
00:07:35.980 It's the idea.
00:07:37.640 The idea is to do something that the Mexican government
00:07:40.480 very much doesn't want us to do.
00:07:43.680 That's the whole point,
00:07:44.940 is to do the thing they don't want us to do.
00:07:47.480 So it's not really an argument against it
00:07:49.740 to say they don't want us to do it.
00:07:51.760 It's more like a description of the idea.
00:07:54.460 Let's do the thing they don't want us to do.
00:07:56.100 Well, I don't know.
00:07:57.460 They don't want us to do it.
00:07:59.360 I know, but that's the whole point,
00:08:00.900 that they don't want us to do it,
00:08:02.660 and nobody's doing it.
00:08:04.060 But it's so important.
00:08:05.260 We have to do it anyway.
00:08:06.840 I don't know.
00:08:07.340 They don't like it.
00:08:08.220 They might not like it.
00:08:09.640 And they might retaliate.
00:08:12.300 They might retaliate.
00:08:14.340 My God.
00:08:15.960 Think of the things the Mexican government
00:08:17.880 could do to the United States.
00:08:21.220 Are you thinking of things?
00:08:22.420 Because I can't think of any.
00:08:26.480 What would be an example?
00:08:29.680 Remove their diplomats?
00:08:33.880 What the fuck are they going to do?
00:08:36.320 I mean, I'd love to hear examples,
00:08:37.780 if there are any examples,
00:08:39.360 but it doesn't sound like the strongest argument.
00:08:45.740 Here's another one.
00:08:47.220 The military wouldn't be useful
00:08:48.540 because the cartels are dispersed
00:08:50.520 all over the country.
00:08:52.420 They're dispersed.
00:08:54.500 I wonder if we've ever successfully
00:08:56.800 fought against any armed group
00:08:59.320 that was dispersed across a vast area.
00:09:03.820 Yes, we have.
00:09:05.240 Our most recent largest military victory
00:09:07.960 was against ISIS,
00:09:10.440 a dispersed group that was all over the place.
00:09:13.160 And I haven't heard from Al-Qaeda lately.
00:09:15.560 When was the last time Al-Qaeda scared you?
00:09:17.760 I feel like Al-Qaeda was dispersed
00:09:21.280 all over the place.
00:09:22.860 And you know what?
00:09:24.020 The U.S. military dispersed them
00:09:25.880 a little bit more, didn't they?
00:09:27.640 So instead of being dispersed across territory,
00:09:30.320 they dispersed their chromosomes
00:09:32.400 all over the fucking place
00:09:33.900 until there weren't enough left
00:09:35.560 to cause any problems.
00:09:37.440 Yes, our military can hunt down
00:09:39.140 dispersed people and kill them.
00:09:40.580 I'm pretty sure they're good at it.
00:09:43.320 Might take a while.
00:09:44.760 Might take five years.
00:09:46.960 But is it worth it?
00:09:48.700 Yes.
00:09:49.940 Yes.
00:09:50.840 Five years of killing them
00:09:52.080 would be worth it.
00:09:52.740 All right, speaking of that,
00:09:57.260 Blinken is going to China
00:09:59.000 to see if they can make a breakthrough
00:10:01.260 in the fentanyl stuff
00:10:02.420 because it's holding up the other stuff.
00:10:04.420 So there are other important things
00:10:05.860 we want to talk to China about,
00:10:07.220 but the fentanyl thing's kind of a roadblock.
00:10:11.180 Now, we want them to stop sending
00:10:13.740 fentanyl precursors to Mexico
00:10:15.760 that the cartels turn into fentanyl.
00:10:19.200 China's excuse is,
00:10:22.140 these are just ordinary drugs.
00:10:24.420 We send these ordinary drugs
00:10:26.120 to lots of places
00:10:27.120 for lots of different reasons.
00:10:28.780 You can't get on us
00:10:29.800 for sending ordinary drugs
00:10:31.140 to ordinary places.
00:10:33.780 Now, the story they don't tell you
00:10:36.040 is that they try to make
00:10:37.800 these things illegal,
00:10:38.980 but the bad guys just add a molecule or two
00:10:41.120 to make them legal again.
00:10:43.060 So that's all a little game
00:10:45.020 that the Chinese play
00:10:46.020 so they don't have to shut it down, basically.
00:10:48.100 So it doesn't look like they're being honest.
00:10:50.880 It looks like they're using an excuse
00:10:52.480 because they like to kill
00:10:54.240 tens of thousands of Americans every year.
00:10:57.260 It weakens us.
00:10:59.040 And they say the problem's on our end.
00:11:01.880 Problem's on our end.
00:11:05.740 Because we're a bunch of drug users.
00:11:10.000 Now, it reminds me,
00:11:11.900 I saw a tweet this morning
00:11:13.120 from Jessica Vaughn.
00:11:14.540 She said she has a Russian roommate, I guess,
00:11:19.760 who is saying that Russia
00:11:22.420 doesn't have any homeless problem.
00:11:25.840 It just doesn't have one.
00:11:28.560 Now, apparently,
00:11:29.500 they don't have drug addicts either
00:11:30.760 or something,
00:11:32.000 or they don't have craziness.
00:11:34.360 But it did make me wonder,
00:11:35.960 where do they go?
00:11:36.600 Do you think that Russia
00:11:38.520 just doesn't have any
00:11:39.580 mental illness and drug addiction?
00:11:43.260 Or are they,
00:11:44.840 does somebody kill them?
00:11:47.120 I mean, do they get put in hospitals?
00:11:49.200 Do they drink themselves to death
00:11:50.400 with vodka and nobody notices?
00:11:52.680 I have lots of questions.
00:11:54.760 You think they're locked up?
00:11:56.380 Maybe.
00:11:58.600 But China and Russia
00:12:02.000 don't seem to have a lot of homeless problems.
00:12:03.720 I'm not sure that they're handling it
00:12:05.160 the way we would want to.
00:12:07.180 Probably pretty brutal over there.
00:12:09.880 All right.
00:12:11.260 Have you heard that this,
00:12:13.060 these diabetes drugs,
00:12:14.580 new diabetes drugs,
00:12:15.680 are helping people
00:12:16.920 quit addictions?
00:12:20.420 So there are people
00:12:21.000 who are taking the diabetes drug
00:12:22.560 for diabetes,
00:12:23.700 and they discover
00:12:24.800 that they stopped drinking.
00:12:27.040 Or they stopped smoking.
00:12:28.660 And it was easy.
00:12:29.720 They just lost their urge
00:12:31.020 to do those things.
00:12:31.860 And now they're thinking
00:12:33.560 that this drug
00:12:34.280 interferes with some part
00:12:35.660 of the brain
00:12:37.020 that involves addiction.
00:12:42.180 Now,
00:12:43.360 does this sound like
00:12:44.540 good news to you?
00:12:47.180 Would you say
00:12:47.700 that's good news?
00:12:49.640 Because it scares
00:12:50.740 the hell out of me.
00:12:52.540 And here's why.
00:12:54.040 They develop a drug
00:12:55.440 for one purpose,
00:12:57.220 and then they find out
00:12:58.360 it alters your brain.
00:13:00.480 What are the odds
00:13:02.620 that the only way
00:13:03.440 it alters your brain
00:13:04.360 is this good way?
00:13:07.160 Is there such a thing
00:13:08.360 as a drug
00:13:09.520 that can reprogram
00:13:11.340 your brain?
00:13:12.760 It'll reprogram
00:13:13.900 your brain.
00:13:15.360 But only in that one way?
00:13:17.120 Just this one narrow way
00:13:18.400 that happens to be
00:13:19.020 so positive?
00:13:20.240 Isn't that a nice coincidence,
00:13:21.920 huh?
00:13:22.940 Don't you feel lucky?
00:13:24.780 How about those
00:13:25.400 side effects?
00:13:27.080 Any side effects?
00:13:28.020 I don't know.
00:13:30.480 It's feeling like
00:13:31.760 COVID vaccine 2.0.
00:13:35.480 It's feeling a little bit
00:13:36.800 too much like,
00:13:38.040 you know,
00:13:38.440 we're five years away
00:13:39.400 from the government
00:13:40.000 requiring it.
00:13:41.640 You know,
00:13:42.300 we've got this big problem
00:13:43.340 with addiction.
00:13:44.540 You know it would be good.
00:13:46.940 I've got an idea.
00:13:48.940 What if everyone
00:13:49.980 had to get
00:13:50.700 an ozempic vaccination?
00:13:53.020 No more addiction.
00:13:56.660 We could solve addiction
00:13:57.700 in the United States?
00:13:59.320 Give everybody a shot.
00:14:00.920 I don't know if you could
00:14:01.660 put it in a shot.
00:14:02.560 I'm just saying that
00:14:03.740 to be more provocative.
00:14:06.160 But at what point
00:14:07.400 does the government
00:14:08.740 get to decide
00:14:09.560 what's good for you?
00:14:12.180 They do it all the time,
00:14:13.780 right?
00:14:14.140 I mean,
00:14:14.400 that's the whole point
00:14:15.080 of the childhood vaccinations
00:14:16.720 is that the government
00:14:18.260 has decided
00:14:18.940 what's good for you,
00:14:20.180 not your parents.
00:14:21.080 And where's the line?
00:14:25.280 How far can they take it?
00:14:26.980 Could they take it
00:14:27.820 all the way to
00:14:28.700 we'd like to give you
00:14:30.000 a vaccination
00:14:30.620 to make sure
00:14:31.920 you don't grow up
00:14:32.620 to be an addict?
00:14:35.500 And what if it worked?
00:14:37.180 It might actually
00:14:37.800 just work.
00:14:39.060 I mean,
00:14:39.320 the other possibility
00:14:40.020 is it just works
00:14:40.900 and everybody's happy
00:14:42.420 and it changes everything
00:14:43.420 and we're all twice as
00:14:44.520 twice as delighted
00:14:46.040 when it's done.
00:14:46.780 It is possible.
00:14:47.980 But none of this
00:14:49.060 looks safe
00:14:49.980 and healthy to me.
00:14:51.740 Yeah,
00:14:52.380 it's got like
00:14:53.700 every red flag
00:14:54.780 you could possibly see.
00:14:56.840 And here's the other
00:14:57.880 question that I ask.
00:15:00.000 Do you think
00:15:00.500 it's a coincidence
00:15:01.240 that Ozempic,
00:15:03.400 a real,
00:15:03.900 you know,
00:15:04.340 pharma,
00:15:05.560 serious pharma drug,
00:15:07.340 is helping with addiction
00:15:09.600 at exactly the same time
00:15:11.860 in history
00:15:12.420 that we've discovered
00:15:14.120 that these cheap
00:15:15.300 and easily available
00:15:16.540 psychedelics
00:15:18.100 might do exactly
00:15:19.140 the same thing?
00:15:20.020 as in cure
00:15:22.100 your addiction.
00:15:23.500 What a coincidence,
00:15:24.780 huh?
00:15:25.700 Big old coincidence
00:15:26.660 that after a million years
00:15:29.020 of human civilization,
00:15:30.980 exactly the same time
00:15:32.260 we find this free,
00:15:34.140 you know,
00:15:34.560 naturally evolved stuff
00:15:36.500 that anybody could get
00:15:38.100 and cure their addiction
00:15:39.120 in maybe one or two
00:15:40.820 experiences.
00:15:42.420 You know,
00:15:42.640 that's the kind of reports
00:15:43.580 we're getting.
00:15:43.960 exactly the same time
00:15:45.680 you can do it for free.
00:15:47.280 Big pharma has a drug
00:15:48.300 that does it too.
00:15:49.920 Which do you think
00:15:50.680 will win in the court
00:15:52.060 of legal opinion?
00:15:55.260 If you think that
00:15:56.700 the big pharma
00:15:57.400 has this drug
00:15:58.420 that can cure addiction,
00:16:00.100 at the same time
00:16:01.320 the psychedelics
00:16:03.760 can cure addiction,
00:16:05.580 and let's say
00:16:06.040 that we imagine
00:16:06.700 they work about,
00:16:07.740 you know,
00:16:08.120 similarly effective,
00:16:09.340 which one do you think
00:16:10.740 will be illegal,
00:16:11.480 and which one
00:16:12.840 will be required?
00:16:16.240 That,
00:16:16.660 that is,
00:16:18.640 you know,
00:16:19.860 we're going to find out,
00:16:21.080 because I've got a feeling
00:16:22.280 that the mushrooms
00:16:22.960 will be illegal,
00:16:23.820 and the big pharma product
00:16:25.640 that costs a lot of money
00:16:26.680 will be mandatory
00:16:28.040 at some point.
00:16:31.240 All right.
00:16:34.080 Apparently the Oscars,
00:16:35.880 I love this story
00:16:38.600 because it's one
00:16:39.960 of my too far stories.
00:16:41.760 So I keep telling you
00:16:42.620 that wokeness has peaked,
00:16:44.860 which is completely different
00:16:46.500 from saying
00:16:47.080 we'll have less of it.
00:16:49.100 I'm not going to say
00:16:49.780 we'll have less of it.
00:16:51.240 I'm saying it's peaked
00:16:52.380 in terms of
00:16:53.160 you can openly mock it
00:16:54.540 for being dumbass stupidity.
00:16:57.600 You can just openly mock it now.
00:16:59.660 Here's what I'll openly mock.
00:17:02.620 So the Oscars,
00:17:04.400 beginning in 2024,
00:17:06.000 in order to win an Oscar,
00:17:09.200 the film producers
00:17:10.060 and directors
00:17:10.700 will be required
00:17:11.740 to submit to the Academy
00:17:13.600 a dossier
00:17:14.820 of the sort of points,
00:17:18.180 I guess they have a point system,
00:17:20.540 for the film crew's
00:17:22.940 race, gender,
00:17:23.840 sexual orientation,
00:17:25.040 and disability status
00:17:26.640 of their film's cast and crew.
00:17:28.520 So it's not just the cast.
00:17:31.940 Now the entire crew
00:17:33.080 has to be
00:17:33.880 also diverse.
00:17:37.560 You can't get an Oscar
00:17:38.500 if you...
00:17:39.260 You can't get an Oscar
00:17:40.400 unless you're...
00:17:41.120 Now,
00:17:43.480 correct me if I'm wrong.
00:17:45.840 This already is
00:17:47.900 destroying the entire industry.
00:17:50.020 Correct?
00:17:51.140 Wouldn't you say
00:17:51.940 that Hollywood
00:17:52.380 has destroyed itself
00:17:53.580 primarily by forcing diversity
00:17:56.520 into every product
00:17:58.740 which is a burden
00:18:00.460 on the writing?
00:18:02.780 By the way,
00:18:03.560 that's the least racist,
00:18:05.860 most accurate way
00:18:06.960 to describe it
00:18:07.780 if you don't want to sound
00:18:08.560 like a bigot,
00:18:09.940 is that if you're a writer,
00:18:12.180 it's hard enough
00:18:12.860 to write a good story
00:18:13.860 about anything.
00:18:15.700 But if you burden
00:18:17.140 the story with
00:18:17.900 and you've got to have
00:18:19.060 a handicapped person in it,
00:18:20.620 and it's got to be multiracial,
00:18:22.860 and, you know,
00:18:23.720 it's got to be three trans,
00:18:25.260 whatever it is,
00:18:26.760 that the burden
00:18:28.240 on the production
00:18:29.180 definitely is going
00:18:31.040 to affect your quality.
00:18:34.040 Even if all the people
00:18:35.120 involved are first rate,
00:18:36.840 it's just an extra burden
00:18:38.320 on the writing,
00:18:39.360 et cetera.
00:18:40.580 So,
00:18:41.820 Hollywood
00:18:42.360 has completely
00:18:43.620 destroyed itself
00:18:44.860 because they've made
00:18:46.440 their product
00:18:47.100 so woke
00:18:48.080 that you can't watch it.
00:18:49.560 It's just unwatchable
00:18:50.560 crap now.
00:18:51.280 And I have to admit,
00:18:55.180 I kind of enjoy watching it.
00:18:57.420 Watching the Oscars
00:18:58.580 become a complete joke
00:19:00.000 to the point
00:19:00.940 where the people
00:19:01.500 who work in the industry
00:19:02.480 are saying,
00:19:02.980 all right,
00:19:03.200 this is too far.
00:19:04.300 This is way too far.
00:19:06.300 And now,
00:19:06.840 it's just ridiculous.
00:19:09.300 It makes my heart sing.
00:19:12.040 I don't know.
00:19:12.620 To me,
00:19:12.920 it's just funny
00:19:13.540 that,
00:19:15.060 because I always tell you
00:19:16.200 that things
00:19:17.040 that have gone too far
00:19:18.920 generally hit the wall
00:19:21.460 by continuing
00:19:23.100 to go too far
00:19:24.100 until it's just stupid
00:19:25.940 and it's ridiculous
00:19:26.640 and you can just
00:19:27.380 laugh at it.
00:19:28.480 And we're there.
00:19:29.960 We're there.
00:19:33.760 I saw an article
00:19:35.260 I'm not going to reference
00:19:37.500 in terms of the URL,
00:19:41.980 but the idea was
00:19:44.680 that the country
00:19:45.560 is falling apart
00:19:46.480 because of a lack
00:19:47.500 of general competence
00:19:48.840 because the world
00:19:50.020 is more complicated,
00:19:51.540 but there are more
00:19:52.680 promotions of people
00:19:53.800 for social reasons
00:19:55.140 over competency.
00:19:57.360 And therefore,
00:19:57.980 we have more
00:19:58.840 incompetent people
00:19:59.940 in important jobs
00:20:01.100 that are complicated jobs
00:20:03.140 than ever before
00:20:04.420 and that that's the reason
00:20:06.160 that everything
00:20:06.760 seems broken.
00:20:08.720 Now,
00:20:09.320 I've told you
00:20:09.820 that if you try
00:20:10.380 to get customer support
00:20:12.620 anywhere,
00:20:13.100 it's just a joke now.
00:20:16.460 We always made fun
00:20:18.200 of how hard it was
00:20:18.940 to get help
00:20:19.420 on the phone and stuff,
00:20:20.720 but even if you can
00:20:21.840 guess somebody
00:20:22.380 on the phone,
00:20:23.040 which is hard enough,
00:20:24.320 you're talking to somebody
00:20:25.660 that you know
00:20:26.320 is unqualified
00:20:27.120 half of the time.
00:20:28.180 I mean,
00:20:28.360 you just tell.
00:20:29.400 They don't even know
00:20:30.040 their own job.
00:20:31.080 I can't tell you
00:20:31.800 the amount of problems
00:20:32.760 I've had
00:20:33.380 because somebody
00:20:34.800 tried to help me
00:20:35.620 with a technical problem
00:20:36.700 and didn't know
00:20:37.420 how to do it
00:20:37.840 and made everything worse.
00:20:39.640 My health care especially.
00:20:40.940 I'm trying to get help
00:20:42.280 from my health care
00:20:43.080 organization.
00:20:43.980 Oh my God.
00:20:45.400 So,
00:20:45.760 would you agree
00:20:46.620 that there's
00:20:47.740 maybe in the last
00:20:48.960 just few years,
00:20:50.220 three to five years,
00:20:51.660 that there's a
00:20:52.620 competency problem
00:20:54.180 that's just
00:20:55.320 glaringly obvious,
00:20:57.140 that the United States
00:20:58.120 is no longer
00:20:58.780 just good at stuff,
00:21:00.720 just good at basic stuff?
00:21:02.560 Now,
00:21:03.040 I don't think
00:21:03.620 it's all
00:21:04.040 a diversity hiring situation.
00:21:06.840 There's also something
00:21:07.800 about young people.
00:21:08.660 If you took
00:21:10.720 a 16-year-old
00:21:11.940 from my generation,
00:21:14.760 you would think
00:21:16.700 that they were
00:21:17.480 25
00:21:18.580 today.
00:21:22.400 You realize that,
00:21:23.420 right?
00:21:23.780 A 16-year-old
00:21:25.080 from my generation,
00:21:26.720 if you just introduced
00:21:27.760 them into the modern world,
00:21:29.640 people would think
00:21:30.940 they were 25
00:21:31.760 because they would act
00:21:33.720 capable.
00:21:36.140 They would be able
00:21:36.920 to do what most
00:21:37.680 25-year-olds
00:21:38.500 can do.
00:21:39.680 And they would do it
00:21:40.520 right in front of you
00:21:41.240 and they wouldn't
00:21:42.080 complain and they
00:21:43.600 would show up on time
00:21:44.440 and they'd work hard
00:21:45.240 and they would have
00:21:45.880 some future
00:21:47.480 intended for themselves.
00:21:49.700 You would never
00:21:50.680 see that
00:21:51.120 in a 16-year-old
00:21:52.060 today.
00:21:53.460 So there's a
00:21:54.240 competency problem
00:21:55.340 of just young people
00:21:56.600 are not being taught
00:21:57.820 just to do stuff,
00:22:00.500 just simply doing things.
00:22:02.520 Because if you're
00:22:03.580 playing video games,
00:22:04.980 you're in an
00:22:05.500 artificial world
00:22:06.380 where all the problems
00:22:07.200 are artificial.
00:22:08.820 If you spend all
00:22:10.340 of your time
00:22:10.720 in the real world,
00:22:12.140 you're solving
00:22:12.700 real problems
00:22:13.540 all day long,
00:22:14.480 just one after another.
00:22:16.040 If you sit in front
00:22:16.780 of your video games,
00:22:17.580 you're solving problems,
00:22:18.980 but they're all
00:22:19.560 the fake ones
00:22:20.220 that don't apply
00:22:20.840 to the real world.
00:22:23.940 Anyway,
00:22:24.500 I think the competence
00:22:25.240 problem is big and bad.
00:22:27.300 It has something to do
00:22:28.340 with things are getting
00:22:29.220 more complicated.
00:22:30.100 So at the same time,
00:22:32.660 our capabilities
00:22:33.520 might be coming down
00:22:34.640 for several different
00:22:35.560 reasons.
00:22:36.520 The complexity
00:22:37.500 of our systems
00:22:38.380 is going up.
00:22:39.680 And I think we've
00:22:40.460 reached some kind
00:22:40.980 of a crossover point
00:22:42.040 where we're generally
00:22:43.360 just not capable
00:22:44.280 of handling
00:22:44.800 our own systems.
00:22:46.140 We don't have
00:22:46.580 the capability
00:22:47.340 to handle it.
00:22:49.340 All right.
00:22:51.560 I saw a graph
00:22:52.820 on a tweet
00:22:53.860 from Razib Khan.
00:22:55.460 and he said,
00:22:57.940 what's happened
00:22:58.420 in the late 2010s
00:23:00.180 to drive women
00:23:00.960 to the left?
00:23:01.660 So it was a graph
00:23:02.420 that showed that women
00:23:04.260 and young women
00:23:05.780 in particular,
00:23:07.220 in the late 2010s,
00:23:09.600 suddenly the graph
00:23:11.780 that had been relatively
00:23:13.720 flat for a long time
00:23:15.320 just went
00:23:16.120 and women became
00:23:18.240 super lefty
00:23:19.400 in the last 10 years
00:23:22.220 or so.
00:23:22.980 Super lefty.
00:23:25.460 And he asked,
00:23:26.820 what caused it?
00:23:28.200 Why did young women
00:23:29.220 become super left?
00:23:31.420 And I would say,
00:23:32.960 there's only one reason.
00:23:36.280 Propaganda.
00:23:37.960 No, propaganda.
00:23:39.760 If you say
00:23:40.680 it's the Me Too thing,
00:23:41.940 it's part of that.
00:23:43.100 That becomes part
00:23:43.840 of the propaganda.
00:23:44.900 If you say
00:23:45.500 it's about abortion,
00:23:47.240 yes,
00:23:48.160 that's part
00:23:48.580 of the propaganda.
00:23:53.280 Right?
00:23:53.840 And what about colleges?
00:23:57.000 It also coincides
00:23:58.300 with a huge increase
00:23:59.480 in college enrollment
00:24:01.060 of women
00:24:01.660 in soft majors.
00:24:04.860 Do you think
00:24:05.240 that made any difference?
00:24:06.720 Of course it did.
00:24:08.200 It made a huge difference.
00:24:10.000 So you've got Me Too,
00:24:11.220 you've got the
00:24:11.940 college universities,
00:24:13.640 you've got social media
00:24:14.940 persuading in one direction,
00:24:16.980 you've got the mainstream media
00:24:18.540 persuading in the same direction.
00:24:20.360 So the surprise
00:24:25.600 would be
00:24:26.180 if it didn't happen.
00:24:28.400 Right?
00:24:28.740 If you looked at
00:24:29.600 all the stuff
00:24:30.080 that was happening,
00:24:31.580 oh, and specifically
00:24:32.460 the rise of Trump,
00:24:34.220 when Trump hit the scene,
00:24:36.700 the entire mainstream media
00:24:38.380 tried to make him
00:24:41.240 the enemy of women.
00:24:43.420 Right?
00:24:44.200 So you could totally see
00:24:45.580 that it was propaganda.
00:24:46.980 It was based on real events
00:24:48.300 in the world,
00:24:48.820 but then it was propagandized.
00:24:51.380 And women were
00:24:52.480 the most affected
00:24:54.580 probably because
00:24:56.360 the natural topics
00:24:57.720 were more in their domain.
00:25:00.340 Right?
00:25:01.300 And so the Me Too stuff
00:25:02.760 was mostly a woman problem.
00:25:05.420 Not entirely,
00:25:06.280 but mostly.
00:25:07.360 And abortion
00:25:08.940 feels like mostly
00:25:10.140 a female problem.
00:25:11.240 Not entirely,
00:25:12.080 but, you know,
00:25:13.280 you know.
00:25:13.640 so
00:25:14.820 I feel like
00:25:18.000 that's the least
00:25:18.800 mysterious
00:25:19.400 shift
00:25:20.880 we've ever seen.
00:25:22.040 It's completely obvious
00:25:23.480 from the propaganda
00:25:24.940 and the topics
00:25:26.080 that were in the news.
00:25:28.980 All right.
00:25:32.120 This story,
00:25:33.200 I had to read it
00:25:34.520 like 50 times
00:25:35.660 to make sure
00:25:36.200 I wasn't hallucinating.
00:25:37.300 You might have
00:25:39.980 the same experience.
00:25:41.700 You're going to say,
00:25:42.600 when was the date
00:25:44.220 of this story?
00:25:45.740 Did we not already
00:25:46.960 go through this?
00:25:48.100 How could we possibly
00:25:49.240 be talking about this today?
00:25:51.320 And here's the story.
00:25:53.380 Twitter just found
00:25:54.740 another shadow ban
00:25:55.960 algorithm
00:25:57.020 that they hadn't
00:25:57.800 found before.
00:25:59.840 There was actually
00:26:00.860 something that was
00:26:01.620 suppressing you
00:26:02.400 if,
00:26:02.780 I think if you got
00:26:03.700 a number of complaints
00:26:05.340 from other Twitter users,
00:26:07.560 you would be suppressed.
00:26:08.700 But you wouldn't know it.
00:26:10.400 Do you know
00:26:10.820 who was also suppressed?
00:26:13.660 Elon Musk.
00:26:15.480 That's right.
00:26:16.680 Because Elon Musk
00:26:17.720 has the kind of account,
00:26:18.960 because, you know,
00:26:19.380 it's the biggest
00:26:19.880 famous account,
00:26:21.160 he's going to get
00:26:21.760 a lot of people
00:26:22.240 complaining about him.
00:26:23.900 Just, you know,
00:26:24.880 protest complaints.
00:26:25.800 So the actual
00:26:27.880 owner of Twitter,
00:26:29.860 unbeknownst to himself,
00:26:32.380 was banning himself.
00:26:35.340 That's a real thing.
00:26:37.640 Musk was shadow banning
00:26:39.700 himself,
00:26:41.500 accidentally,
00:26:42.760 he didn't know it,
00:26:43.780 because Twitter still
00:26:45.020 had an algorithm
00:26:45.880 that was banning
00:26:46.600 people like him,
00:26:47.620 people who get
00:26:48.160 complaints.
00:26:50.900 Now,
00:26:51.620 and Elon Musk
00:26:52.600 confirmed this.
00:26:54.240 Musk actually
00:26:54.820 confirmed it.
00:26:56.060 Now,
00:26:56.380 doesn't that make
00:26:57.040 you feel like,
00:26:58.040 wait a minute,
00:26:58.860 isn't this a repeat?
00:26:59.740 I thought they
00:27:02.020 went in there
00:27:02.520 and they tore
00:27:04.500 out by the roots
00:27:05.500 all of those
00:27:06.440 bad, you know,
00:27:07.420 algorithms,
00:27:08.220 and it was
00:27:08.920 full transparency.
00:27:11.120 Told us what
00:27:11.840 he was doing,
00:27:12.360 which I love.
00:27:13.220 And I love this too.
00:27:14.840 I love the fact
00:27:15.680 that this is
00:27:16.500 full transparency.
00:27:17.520 We just found
00:27:18.060 this thing,
00:27:19.000 this is what it did,
00:27:20.900 and we're trying
00:27:22.360 to get rid of it.
00:27:24.080 I love that
00:27:25.240 kind of mistake.
00:27:27.040 You know,
00:27:27.260 because it's a mistake
00:27:28.060 that it exists.
00:27:29.380 You could argue
00:27:29.980 it's a mistake
00:27:30.620 that they didn't
00:27:31.180 find it until now.
00:27:33.180 But I love the fact
00:27:34.840 that once they
00:27:35.360 found it,
00:27:35.980 it was full disclosure.
00:27:38.260 And then we're
00:27:39.220 going to go fix it.
00:27:40.360 So that part,
00:27:41.440 A+.
00:27:41.860 Now,
00:27:42.840 I say this all the time,
00:27:43.900 but I think it's
00:27:44.520 always worth repeating.
00:27:46.700 If you judge people
00:27:47.940 by their mistakes,
00:27:49.800 you're going to
00:27:50.180 have a very sad life.
00:27:51.900 Because everybody
00:27:52.660 makes mistakes,
00:27:53.540 including you.
00:27:54.260 But if you judge people
00:27:56.240 by how they respond
00:27:57.420 to their mistakes,
00:27:59.460 in this case,
00:28:00.020 you could call it
00:28:00.700 a mistake that
00:28:01.480 that algorithm
00:28:02.100 still existed.
00:28:03.640 But the way
00:28:04.260 they handled it,
00:28:04.960 A+.
00:28:05.380 So that's my
00:28:06.600 final grade.
00:28:07.820 My final grade
00:28:08.560 is A+,
00:28:09.140 because I care
00:28:09.660 about how you
00:28:10.140 handled it.
00:28:10.900 I don't care
00:28:11.500 that it was there.
00:28:12.720 I mean,
00:28:12.980 I care,
00:28:13.700 but I'm not
00:28:14.160 going to judge
00:28:14.580 anybody for it.
00:28:17.200 All right.
00:28:19.160 I'm going to
00:28:19.720 make a further
00:28:20.460 prediction
00:28:20.920 that there will
00:28:22.840 be some point
00:28:23.640 in the maybe
00:28:24.440 near future
00:28:25.200 in which Twitter
00:28:26.640 will discover
00:28:27.360 that the tweaking
00:28:29.480 of these algorithms
00:28:30.420 was available
00:28:31.720 to people
00:28:32.480 on the outside.
00:28:34.480 Meaning that
00:28:35.260 there was probably
00:28:35.840 at least somebody
00:28:36.980 somewhere
00:28:37.480 who could actually
00:28:38.800 dial into,
00:28:40.140 I'll say dial in,
00:28:41.500 use the old term,
00:28:42.680 could just dial
00:28:43.780 into Twitter
00:28:44.380 and tweak the algorithm
00:28:45.900 any way they wanted.
00:28:47.720 Probably an
00:28:48.500 intelligence agency.
00:28:50.600 Probably an
00:28:51.180 intelligence agency.
00:28:52.460 Now,
00:28:52.760 it could be that
00:28:53.440 they just had an
00:28:54.140 insider who would
00:28:54.880 do it for them,
00:28:56.380 which would look
00:28:57.000 the same.
00:28:57.660 I'm not saying
00:28:58.320 they necessarily
00:28:58.940 could hack the system
00:29:01.040 or that they had
00:29:02.760 a backdoor,
00:29:03.640 which is possible.
00:29:04.680 They just might
00:29:05.180 have an insider
00:29:05.800 who could do it for them.
00:29:07.900 Makes you wonder
00:29:08.460 how many other
00:29:09.640 suppression algorithms
00:29:11.960 are in the code.
00:29:13.820 Now,
00:29:14.180 I would like to
00:29:14.940 once again
00:29:16.320 claim the best
00:29:17.860 prediction about this.
00:29:20.400 Back when
00:29:21.080 Jack Dorsey
00:29:21.660 was running,
00:29:22.360 I said two things.
00:29:23.840 Number one,
00:29:24.420 there's no way
00:29:25.480 that Jack Dorsey
00:29:26.240 knows what the
00:29:26.880 algorithm is doing.
00:29:28.220 And people laughed
00:29:29.000 at me.
00:29:29.960 Actually laughed.
00:29:30.720 It's like,
00:29:31.020 my God,
00:29:31.720 of course he knows.
00:29:33.320 Of course he knows.
00:29:34.640 Nope.
00:29:35.640 I would say
00:29:36.440 it is now confirmed
00:29:37.560 beyond any doubt
00:29:38.540 he did not know
00:29:40.040 because it was
00:29:41.260 unknowable.
00:29:42.980 The complexity
00:29:43.720 of it
00:29:44.300 and the number
00:29:45.200 of places
00:29:45.680 they had
00:29:46.140 shadow banning
00:29:47.380 code,
00:29:47.960 it was just
00:29:48.420 bigger than
00:29:48.860 any one person
00:29:49.520 would know.
00:29:50.660 And I even
00:29:51.660 said that
00:29:52.220 it's not just
00:29:52.940 that Jack Dorsey
00:29:55.660 might not know
00:29:56.400 what the code
00:29:57.480 is doing,
00:29:58.480 but I speculated
00:30:00.000 that there was
00:30:00.560 nobody in Twitter
00:30:01.560 who would know.
00:30:03.360 Would you agree
00:30:05.100 with that now?
00:30:06.200 They just found this.
00:30:08.620 Can you give me
00:30:09.260 credit for saying
00:30:10.000 that nobody knew
00:30:10.760 what the algorithm
00:30:11.400 was doing?
00:30:14.200 Now,
00:30:14.740 maybe there was
00:30:15.240 some secret person
00:30:16.080 who knew,
00:30:16.540 but in terms of
00:30:17.520 management,
00:30:18.000 nobody knew.
00:30:18.380 So everything
00:30:25.480 you suspected
00:30:26.340 about Twitter
00:30:27.960 having some
00:30:29.080 kind of suppression
00:30:30.360 was all true.
00:30:32.560 Do you remember,
00:30:33.600 was it a week ago,
00:30:36.000 I told you I thought
00:30:37.120 Twitter was suppressing me?
00:30:39.840 How many of you
00:30:40.640 remember me saying
00:30:41.440 that like a week ago?
00:30:43.360 Like,
00:30:43.720 it seemed obvious
00:30:44.480 to me
00:30:45.080 that something
00:30:45.980 had happened again.
00:30:47.000 Now,
00:30:48.280 how many complaints
00:30:50.020 do you think
00:30:50.600 I get on my
00:30:51.500 Twitter account?
00:30:53.760 I mean,
00:30:54.160 I wouldn't necessarily
00:30:55.020 see them, right?
00:30:55.940 I wouldn't be aware
00:30:56.640 of them.
00:30:57.660 But given my
00:30:58.640 recent dust-up
00:30:59.620 in the public,
00:31:01.360 you don't think
00:31:02.000 a lot of people
00:31:02.560 are reporting
00:31:03.100 my account
00:31:03.680 just to try
00:31:04.880 to screw with me?
00:31:06.340 Of course they are.
00:31:07.840 So this specific
00:31:09.700 suppression algorithm
00:31:11.400 they found
00:31:12.020 is exactly
00:31:13.340 in my ballpark.
00:31:15.380 And it's exactly
00:31:16.140 in Musk's
00:31:16.860 ballpark, too.
00:31:17.980 We're both
00:31:18.580 the kind of
00:31:19.000 personalities
00:31:19.480 that attract
00:31:20.920 a lot of
00:31:21.280 complaints.
00:31:22.380 And that's
00:31:22.900 what got us
00:31:23.380 suppressed.
00:31:25.100 Yeah,
00:31:25.520 I noticed
00:31:26.340 it looked like
00:31:27.780 somebody just
00:31:28.240 put the brakes
00:31:28.840 on my account
00:31:29.500 a few weeks ago.
00:31:31.120 It just looked
00:31:31.580 like everything
00:31:32.000 stopped suddenly.
00:31:34.620 Anyway,
00:31:35.200 so that's
00:31:35.520 probably what it
00:31:36.000 was.
00:31:36.220 All right.
00:31:42.220 this is
00:31:45.220 amazing.
00:31:46.380 There's a
00:31:47.000 JFK Jr.
00:31:49.980 story about
00:31:50.500 a CDC
00:31:51.040 whistleblower.
00:31:52.500 And this is
00:31:53.000 the most
00:31:53.280 mind-blowing
00:31:54.060 story.
00:31:55.480 Now,
00:31:56.060 I'll simply
00:31:57.000 tell you what
00:31:57.640 he's saying.
00:31:59.060 I have no way
00:31:59.800 to validate
00:32:00.920 this is true.
00:32:02.740 But he's a
00:32:04.460 credible
00:32:04.820 personality,
00:32:05.800 and he's
00:32:06.100 saying it,
00:32:06.580 and he's
00:32:06.800 running for
00:32:07.200 president,
00:32:07.560 so I'm
00:32:07.960 going to
00:32:08.120 repeat it.
00:32:08.600 He says
00:32:09.800 there's a
00:32:10.220 CDC whistleblower
00:32:11.280 who personally
00:32:12.560 was in a
00:32:13.100 meeting where
00:32:13.680 they looked
00:32:15.700 at data
00:32:16.220 that black
00:32:18.760 children were
00:32:20.100 being injured
00:32:20.880 by this
00:32:21.660 medicine,
00:32:23.880 and they
00:32:25.500 decided to
00:32:26.200 hide the
00:32:26.620 fact,
00:32:27.360 and all the
00:32:28.000 documents were
00:32:28.660 collected up
00:32:29.240 and thrown
00:32:29.620 in the same
00:32:30.180 trash before
00:32:31.460 they left
00:32:31.920 the room.
00:32:34.140 Does that
00:32:34.840 sound true?
00:32:36.860 Yeah,
00:32:37.420 it's too
00:32:37.680 on the nose.
00:32:39.260 My suspicion
00:32:40.560 is that if
00:32:41.540 you asked the
00:32:42.180 company about
00:32:42.880 this, they
00:32:44.160 would say
00:32:44.540 something like,
00:32:45.860 yes, we
00:32:46.280 did collect
00:32:46.820 them all and
00:32:47.260 throw them
00:32:47.620 away, but
00:32:48.780 it's because
00:32:49.240 the study was
00:32:49.920 bad.
00:32:51.260 And then if
00:32:51.640 you looked
00:32:51.960 into it, you
00:32:52.540 would find
00:32:52.880 out maybe
00:32:53.640 there were
00:32:53.980 some holes
00:32:54.340 in the
00:32:54.580 study.
00:32:55.700 Now, I'm
00:32:56.340 not defending
00:32:56.920 them, because
00:32:57.740 I don't even
00:32:58.480 remember what
00:32:58.940 company it was,
00:32:59.620 frankly.
00:33:00.640 I'm just
00:33:01.260 telling you,
00:33:01.860 you should
00:33:02.240 never believe
00:33:02.860 one side of
00:33:03.600 an argument.
00:33:05.440 Never believe
00:33:06.240 one side of
00:33:06.840 an argument.
00:33:07.440 It doesn't
00:33:07.760 matter how
00:33:08.140 convincing
00:33:08.600 is never
00:33:09.500 believe one
00:33:10.160 side of
00:33:10.480 an argument.
00:33:11.240 That's why
00:33:11.640 we have
00:33:12.060 lawyers.
00:33:13.200 That's why
00:33:13.620 there are
00:33:13.880 two lawyers.
00:33:15.340 If you
00:33:15.880 could believe
00:33:16.300 one side,
00:33:16.880 you'd only
00:33:17.180 need one
00:33:17.720 lawyer for
00:33:19.040 every trial.
00:33:20.320 Okay, we're
00:33:21.020 going to tell
00:33:21.560 you what he
00:33:21.880 did.
00:33:22.560 Now vote.
00:33:24.340 No defense
00:33:25.000 needed.
00:33:25.980 Just one
00:33:26.600 lawyer.
00:33:27.460 No, you
00:33:28.060 don't do
00:33:28.500 that, because
00:33:29.520 one lawyer can
00:33:30.580 always be
00:33:31.460 convincing.
00:33:32.500 That's what
00:33:32.980 they learn to
00:33:33.520 do.
00:33:33.760 So when
00:33:35.180 RFK Jr., who
00:33:36.560 is a
00:33:36.920 trained
00:33:37.300 lawyer,
00:33:39.180 when he
00:33:39.560 goes on
00:33:39.980 Joe Rogan
00:33:40.500 and he
00:33:40.740 says a
00:33:41.080 bunch of
00:33:41.380 things that
00:33:41.780 sound really
00:33:42.400 true,
00:33:43.740 well, it
00:33:44.080 should sound
00:33:44.580 true, he's
00:33:45.700 trained to
00:33:46.320 make things
00:33:46.840 sound true.
00:33:48.140 He's really
00:33:48.740 good at it,
00:33:49.580 because that's
00:33:50.760 exactly his
00:33:51.380 profession.
00:33:52.860 So whether
00:33:54.540 it is true,
00:33:56.020 you should not
00:33:57.100 use your
00:33:57.820 confidence in
00:33:59.020 his argument
00:33:59.620 as part of
00:34:00.780 your reasoning,
00:34:02.300 because the
00:34:02.800 confidence in
00:34:03.520 his argument
00:34:04.020 will always be
00:34:04.660 there, whether
00:34:05.240 he's right or
00:34:05.780 not, because
00:34:07.080 he would be a
00:34:07.620 guy who could
00:34:08.120 make a confident
00:34:08.840 argument about
00:34:09.680 something that's
00:34:10.280 true or not
00:34:11.720 true.
00:34:12.460 He would have
00:34:12.900 that skill, so
00:34:13.640 you don't know
00:34:14.000 what he's doing.
00:34:14.840 And you don't
00:34:15.280 know if he
00:34:15.620 could just be
00:34:16.100 wrong and
00:34:17.460 confidently arguing,
00:34:18.900 but maybe wrong
00:34:19.760 on some facts.
00:34:21.460 So have I ever
00:34:22.780 told you that
00:34:24.700 watching Joe
00:34:25.560 Rogan have
00:34:26.120 somebody on for
00:34:26.820 three hours is
00:34:28.280 not only not
00:34:29.460 helping, it's
00:34:30.260 worse than
00:34:30.780 nothing.
00:34:32.280 Have you
00:34:32.560 heard me say
00:34:33.020 that?
00:34:34.780 That having
00:34:35.400 one expert on
00:34:36.300 for three hours
00:34:37.000 is worse than
00:34:37.840 nothing.
00:34:38.800 It would be
00:34:39.100 better just not
00:34:39.860 even have him
00:34:40.300 on.
00:34:42.720 Yeah, I've
00:34:44.180 been saying
00:34:44.480 that for a
00:34:44.840 long time.
00:34:45.700 And I've
00:34:46.340 said the
00:34:47.160 ideal situation
00:34:48.200 would be Joe
00:34:48.880 Rogan or
00:34:50.000 somebody like
00:34:50.700 him having
00:34:51.820 two experts
00:34:52.620 on who
00:34:53.740 disagree.
00:34:55.060 And do you
00:34:55.360 remember what
00:34:56.520 I said about
00:34:57.000 the format?
00:34:58.440 You know, what
00:34:58.720 the format should
00:34:59.520 be if there are
00:35:00.140 the two experts?
00:35:01.680 There was one
00:35:02.380 thing I said
00:35:02.920 about the
00:35:03.340 format that
00:35:03.960 was important.
00:35:06.620 No time
00:35:07.380 limit.
00:35:08.840 No time
00:35:09.380 limit.
00:35:10.240 That was very
00:35:10.960 important.
00:35:11.720 Because otherwise
00:35:12.320 the person who
00:35:13.380 has the weakest
00:35:13.920 argument just
00:35:14.680 runs the clock
00:35:15.320 out.
00:35:16.200 You can't let
00:35:17.000 one of them
00:35:17.380 run the clock
00:35:17.960 out when they're
00:35:18.480 losing.
00:35:18.940 You need a
00:35:19.300 winner.
00:35:20.360 You need to
00:35:21.540 just stay there
00:35:22.940 until somebody's
00:35:24.240 ground down.
00:35:26.040 So, here's a
00:35:28.680 real thing that
00:35:29.240 happened in
00:35:29.740 the news.
00:35:31.200 So, Joe
00:35:31.760 Rogan had
00:35:32.300 RFK Jr.
00:35:33.140 on, and
00:35:33.760 RFK Jr.
00:35:34.540 made a bunch
00:35:34.960 of claims
00:35:35.360 about vaccinations
00:35:36.420 and whatnot.
00:35:37.960 And there
00:35:38.540 is an expert
00:35:40.620 on vaccinations,
00:35:42.080 I guess, or
00:35:42.780 some expert in
00:35:44.900 that field is
00:35:45.520 relevant.
00:35:46.640 Professor Peter
00:35:47.560 Hotez, he's an
00:35:48.780 MD and a PhD.
00:35:49.620 And I guess
00:35:51.880 on Twitter, at
00:35:52.540 least, he was
00:35:53.400 critical of
00:35:54.460 RFK Jr.'s
00:35:55.640 claims.
00:35:57.880 So, Joe
00:35:59.660 Rogan invited
00:36:01.940 Professor Peter
00:36:05.600 Hotez to
00:36:06.760 appear with
00:36:07.520 RFK Jr., the
00:36:09.460 two of them,
00:36:10.600 on the show.
00:36:12.440 And here's the
00:36:12.940 best part.
00:36:14.260 No time
00:36:14.800 limit.
00:36:16.420 No time
00:36:17.280 limit.
00:36:17.480 Now, Elon
00:36:20.860 Musk weighed
00:36:21.840 in, and
00:36:23.100 Elon was
00:36:24.200 very much in
00:36:25.360 favor of this
00:36:25.960 idea.
00:36:27.060 And I think
00:36:28.140 Joe Rogan
00:36:28.720 offered $100,000
00:36:29.960 to charity, if
00:36:31.660 they would
00:36:31.980 debate.
00:36:34.020 Other people
00:36:34.840 on the
00:36:35.140 Internet, Bill
00:36:35.880 Ackman and a
00:36:36.620 number of other
00:36:37.100 rich people, said,
00:36:38.540 I'll give you
00:36:38.900 $100,000, I'll
00:36:40.220 give you a
00:36:40.540 quarter million.
00:36:41.800 Somebody said
00:36:42.500 Tate offered
00:36:44.100 half a million.
00:36:44.980 I'm not sure
00:36:45.900 that's true.
00:36:46.440 But, you
00:36:47.760 know, you
00:36:47.980 can see people
00:36:48.920 were trying to
00:36:49.460 jump on board
00:36:50.200 and fund it.
00:36:51.940 Now, the
00:36:52.200 funding would be
00:36:52.820 for charity.
00:36:54.080 And Musk
00:36:54.480 actually started
00:36:55.320 mocking Hotez
00:36:56.580 in public by
00:36:58.360 saying he must
00:36:58.940 not like charity,
00:36:59.900 you know, jokingly,
00:37:00.760 but trying to put
00:37:01.580 a little pressure
00:37:02.060 on him to do
00:37:02.600 it.
00:37:03.620 Now, how
00:37:06.960 happy are you?
00:37:09.300 How happy are
00:37:09.980 you?
00:37:12.560 He's so far
00:37:13.480 not agreed to
00:37:15.820 it, at least
00:37:16.700 as of a few
00:37:17.380 minutes ago.
00:37:18.520 Do you think
00:37:19.220 he will?
00:37:21.200 Do you think
00:37:21.620 he'll take it?
00:37:22.820 You know,
00:37:24.060 now, I'm going
00:37:24.840 to be charitable
00:37:26.180 here.
00:37:27.840 He's a critic,
00:37:29.400 but that does
00:37:30.040 not mean he
00:37:30.700 would be the
00:37:31.160 best person to
00:37:32.180 debate in
00:37:33.220 public.
00:37:34.300 Simply being an
00:37:35.160 expert and a
00:37:35.840 critic does not
00:37:37.120 make you as
00:37:37.700 capable as
00:37:39.440 Joe Rogan,
00:37:40.760 you know,
00:37:41.020 talking in public,
00:37:41.780 and it does
00:37:42.540 not make you
00:37:43.200 nearly as
00:37:43.720 capable as
00:37:44.480 RFK Jr.
00:37:46.260 talking in
00:37:46.880 public.
00:37:47.820 So it could
00:37:48.480 be that, you
00:37:49.200 know, it's
00:37:49.740 just not the
00:37:50.280 format that his
00:37:51.400 skills fit.
00:37:52.480 I don't know
00:37:52.880 that.
00:37:53.220 I'm just
00:37:53.500 speculating.
00:37:54.140 There could be
00:37:54.800 an obvious
00:37:55.200 reason why he
00:37:56.460 wouldn't want
00:37:56.920 to do it,
00:37:57.280 which had
00:37:57.560 nothing to do
00:37:58.140 with his
00:37:58.480 confidence of
00:37:59.280 his point.
00:38:02.340 But if he
00:38:03.040 doesn't do it,
00:38:03.660 don't you think
00:38:04.100 you could find
00:38:04.620 another expert
00:38:05.300 to do it?
00:38:06.680 You know,
00:38:06.860 don't you think
00:38:07.300 you could find
00:38:07.820 somebody else who
00:38:08.620 has a similar
00:38:09.140 view, who's
00:38:09.720 also an expert,
00:38:10.660 who would love
00:38:11.400 to get on
00:38:11.860 there and
00:38:12.340 debate RFK
00:38:13.140 Jr.
00:38:13.660 and embarrass
00:38:14.620 him in front
00:38:15.120 of the world.
00:38:17.860 So I think
00:38:22.160 this is one
00:38:22.680 of the best
00:38:23.300 outcomes in a
00:38:27.680 long time.
00:38:28.880 We're finally
00:38:29.860 on the cusp
00:38:30.760 of an
00:38:31.780 internet dad
00:38:32.820 getting two
00:38:34.260 experts to
00:38:34.980 argue in front
00:38:35.700 of you with
00:38:36.140 no time limit.
00:38:36.940 that's what we
00:38:39.340 need.
00:38:40.460 That's
00:38:40.820 everything.
00:38:42.000 Now, if it
00:38:43.800 happens, I
00:38:44.560 mean, maybe it
00:38:45.080 won't be perfect
00:38:45.760 the first time.
00:38:47.160 Maybe the
00:38:47.720 people run on
00:38:48.720 too much.
00:38:49.400 Anything could
00:38:50.060 happen.
00:38:51.060 But there is
00:38:52.080 nothing that is
00:38:53.520 more positive,
00:38:54.480 more useful,
00:38:55.840 a better signal
00:38:57.480 for the country
00:38:58.240 than what Joe
00:38:59.780 Rogan is doing
00:39:00.500 right now.
00:39:01.780 Joe Rogan
00:39:02.480 saving the
00:39:03.060 country.
00:39:03.380 Or I
00:39:06.020 would say
00:39:06.360 that today
00:39:07.020 or this
00:39:07.540 week, Joe
00:39:08.780 Rogan did
00:39:09.420 more for the
00:39:09.940 country than
00:39:10.440 Congress.
00:39:12.180 If he pulls
00:39:13.020 this off, if
00:39:14.400 he pulls it
00:39:14.860 off, he's
00:39:15.220 doing more
00:39:15.660 for the
00:39:15.980 country.
00:39:17.160 Civilization.
00:39:18.320 It's not
00:39:18.880 just the
00:39:19.260 country.
00:39:20.260 He's doing
00:39:20.660 more for
00:39:21.080 civilization than
00:39:23.360 the entire
00:39:24.120 government if
00:39:25.460 he can pull
00:39:25.900 this off.
00:39:27.980 It's that
00:39:28.660 important.
00:39:29.900 I'd love to
00:39:30.640 see it.
00:39:31.220 Because, you
00:39:31.520 know, there's
00:39:31.900 no mainstream
00:39:33.420 media company
00:39:34.540 that could do
00:39:35.020 that.
00:39:35.740 Do you know
00:39:36.260 why?
00:39:37.660 Obviously, they're
00:39:39.020 all funded by
00:39:40.120 Big Pharma.
00:39:42.220 So if you're
00:39:43.080 funded by Big
00:39:43.760 Pharma, there's
00:39:44.360 no freaking way
00:39:45.020 you're going to
00:39:45.340 host a debate
00:39:45.980 on any of
00:39:46.540 this stuff.
00:39:49.200 So it's the
00:39:50.000 perfect thing at
00:39:50.720 the perfect time
00:39:51.560 with at least
00:39:52.620 one of the
00:39:53.040 people would be
00:39:53.580 the perfect
00:39:54.040 person.
00:39:54.700 We hope the
00:39:55.180 other one says
00:39:55.760 yes.
00:39:56.880 And this would
00:39:57.680 be frankly
00:39:58.340 amazing.
00:40:00.360 Because I have
00:40:01.240 to tell you,
00:40:01.900 I don't know
00:40:03.340 who's right.
00:40:05.400 And unlike
00:40:06.280 my usual
00:40:07.520 artificial
00:40:08.420 certainty, I
00:40:10.260 don't even
00:40:11.140 lean one way.
00:40:13.320 I just don't
00:40:14.220 know.
00:40:15.200 I'm pretty sure
00:40:16.100 that if you're
00:40:16.700 on the right,
00:40:17.340 you only see
00:40:18.040 things that
00:40:18.540 agree with
00:40:19.000 you.
00:40:19.240 If you're on
00:40:19.600 the left,
00:40:19.980 you only see
00:40:20.380 things that
00:40:20.800 agree with
00:40:21.220 you.
00:40:21.800 I've seen
00:40:22.380 both.
00:40:24.560 Right?
00:40:25.040 If you don't
00:40:25.520 go look for
00:40:26.080 the other side,
00:40:26.780 you'll never
00:40:27.320 see it.
00:40:28.080 Because the
00:40:28.480 other side
00:40:28.920 argument,
00:40:29.400 whatever the
00:40:29.760 other side
00:40:30.200 is, your
00:40:31.480 algorithm has
00:40:32.320 locked you
00:40:32.760 in a bubble,
00:40:34.000 you're going
00:40:34.520 to see
00:40:34.820 countless
00:40:35.880 anti-vaccine
00:40:37.360 stuff once
00:40:38.660 you get in
00:40:39.060 the bubble.
00:40:39.900 You will
00:40:40.520 never see
00:40:41.860 the other
00:40:42.240 side.
00:40:43.080 You've got
00:40:43.480 to go
00:40:43.780 Google and
00:40:44.520 look for
00:40:44.880 it.
00:40:45.300 I've done
00:40:45.740 it.
00:40:46.380 I know
00:40:46.840 that it's
00:40:47.120 not going
00:40:47.400 to come
00:40:47.620 to me
00:40:47.860 naturally.
00:40:48.620 I've got
00:40:48.980 to go
00:40:49.200 look for
00:40:49.600 it.
00:40:50.080 If you
00:40:50.620 do,
00:40:51.680 you're
00:40:51.940 going to
00:40:52.120 come away
00:40:52.560 with some
00:40:53.180 humility,
00:40:55.160 to use
00:40:55.440 art's word,
00:40:56.580 you're going
00:40:57.300 to come
00:40:57.520 away with
00:40:57.940 some humility.
00:40:58.560 And the
00:40:59.780 humility is
00:41:00.560 listening to
00:41:01.780 that one
00:41:02.200 person or
00:41:02.840 that one
00:41:03.300 side did
00:41:04.500 not serve
00:41:05.040 you.
00:41:05.880 It did
00:41:06.200 not serve
00:41:06.700 you because
00:41:07.860 you haven't
00:41:08.180 heard of the
00:41:08.460 other side.
00:41:10.000 So please,
00:41:11.300 please,
00:41:12.700 let's make
00:41:13.180 this work.
00:41:16.200 All right.
00:41:20.300 Chris Hayes
00:41:21.380 tweeted about
00:41:22.340 this situation,
00:41:24.840 MSNBC,
00:41:26.340 Chris Hayes.
00:41:26.800 he says,
00:41:27.840 very cool
00:41:28.300 to watch
00:41:28.680 all these
00:41:29.040 millionaires
00:41:29.560 and billionaires
00:41:30.100 push an
00:41:30.740 anti-vax line
00:41:31.900 that has
00:41:32.720 killed tens
00:41:33.300 of thousands,
00:41:34.060 if not
00:41:34.360 hundreds of
00:41:34.840 thousands,
00:41:35.260 of working
00:41:35.700 people.
00:41:37.280 So I
00:41:37.960 tweeted to
00:41:38.460 that,
00:41:39.140 retweeted him
00:41:40.000 and said,
00:41:40.560 confidence in
00:41:41.260 data on
00:41:41.820 any topic
00:41:42.520 feels absurd
00:41:44.000 in 2013.
00:41:46.560 Doesn't it
00:41:47.160 feel absurd
00:41:48.000 to see a
00:41:49.480 talking head
00:41:50.760 act with
00:41:52.340 some certainty
00:41:53.040 about the
00:41:53.760 science?
00:41:54.440 Now,
00:41:56.120 I'm not
00:41:56.320 even saying
00:41:56.760 he's wrong.
00:41:58.040 I'm not
00:41:58.640 claiming he's
00:41:59.120 wrong.
00:42:00.180 I'm claiming
00:42:00.900 that I
00:42:01.620 don't know.
00:42:02.960 And if he
00:42:03.500 says he
00:42:03.920 knows,
00:42:05.240 that's almost
00:42:05.760 like a
00:42:06.120 mental problem.
00:42:08.940 I mean,
00:42:09.500 it would seem
00:42:09.840 like,
00:42:10.180 what would
00:42:10.400 that be?
00:42:12.860 What's the
00:42:13.400 name of that
00:42:13.800 syndrome where
00:42:14.580 you think you're
00:42:15.160 smarter than
00:42:15.680 you are?
00:42:17.280 What's that
00:42:17.840 called with
00:42:18.480 the two
00:42:18.760 names?
00:42:20.520 Why am I
00:42:21.180 blanking on
00:42:21.700 that?
00:42:23.140 You know
00:42:23.660 what I'm
00:42:23.840 talking about.
00:42:24.440 Yeah,
00:42:25.020 Dunning-Kruger.
00:42:25.920 Dunning-Kruger.
00:42:27.100 Doesn't that
00:42:27.680 seem like
00:42:28.040 Dunning-Kruger
00:42:28.640 to you?
00:42:30.000 And again,
00:42:30.600 he might be
00:42:31.100 right,
00:42:31.760 but it would
00:42:32.260 only be by
00:42:32.840 accident.
00:42:34.000 You don't
00:42:34.460 think he
00:42:34.900 has some
00:42:35.460 mastery of
00:42:36.760 that data
00:42:37.220 that you
00:42:37.560 don't,
00:42:38.300 do you?
00:42:40.260 Do you
00:42:40.820 think he's
00:42:41.300 seen the
00:42:41.680 same data
00:42:42.140 that you've
00:42:42.640 seen?
00:42:43.660 Or do you
00:42:44.200 think that
00:42:44.580 Chris Hayes,
00:42:45.780 because like
00:42:46.600 all of us,
00:42:47.740 once he starts
00:42:48.560 interacting with
00:42:49.300 a certain
00:42:49.600 kind of
00:42:49.980 information,
00:42:50.980 it's all
00:42:51.500 he sees.
00:42:52.540 It's all
00:42:53.120 that gets
00:42:53.500 fed to him,
00:42:54.360 that's all
00:42:55.340 anybody talks
00:42:56.000 about in
00:42:56.380 his circle.
00:43:00.800 Referring to
00:43:01.440 2013 might
00:43:02.460 be the mental
00:43:02.940 problem.
00:43:04.640 John.
00:43:07.700 You're so
00:43:08.380 weak,
00:43:09.240 John.
00:43:10.320 So weak.
00:43:12.100 Anyway,
00:43:12.700 but I love
00:43:14.820 the fact
00:43:15.160 that he's
00:43:15.400 mocking the
00:43:16.040 millionaires
00:43:16.460 and billionaires
00:43:17.120 for pushing
00:43:18.200 an anti-vax
00:43:19.220 line.
00:43:20.560 Is that
00:43:21.080 what you
00:43:21.300 see?
00:43:23.020 When
00:43:23.480 Joe Rogan
00:43:25.560 and Elon
00:43:26.180 Musk and
00:43:27.180 all the other
00:43:27.720 people who
00:43:28.100 kicked in,
00:43:29.280 when they
00:43:29.820 were begging
00:43:31.140 the two
00:43:32.200 experts to
00:43:33.380 debate in
00:43:34.000 public,
00:43:35.220 that was
00:43:35.720 pushing an
00:43:36.240 anti-vax
00:43:36.860 line.
00:43:37.120 asking the
00:43:39.060 person who
00:43:39.680 is the
00:43:40.060 most positive
00:43:41.560 about vaccines
00:43:42.480 and an
00:43:42.980 expert,
00:43:44.140 we will
00:43:44.460 pay you
00:43:45.040 any amount
00:43:45.960 of money.
00:43:46.920 We'll give
00:43:47.180 you,
00:43:47.920 well,
00:43:48.180 not him
00:43:48.580 actually,
00:43:48.980 to charity,
00:43:49.620 I guess.
00:43:50.240 What will
00:43:51.100 it take?
00:43:51.960 Please,
00:43:52.540 dear God,
00:43:53.140 can you
00:43:53.560 get on and
00:43:54.840 inform us
00:43:55.520 in a way that
00:43:57.120 is credible
00:43:58.020 with somebody
00:43:58.560 who can
00:43:58.840 challenge you?
00:43:59.360 literally begging
00:44:02.460 for better
00:44:03.700 information,
00:44:05.660 and Chris
00:44:06.200 Hayes says
00:44:06.720 that they're
00:44:07.020 anti-vax,
00:44:08.400 begging for
00:44:09.800 both sides.
00:44:12.160 It's the
00:44:12.920 main thing
00:44:13.640 they're spending
00:44:14.060 time on today,
00:44:15.020 is to get
00:44:15.800 both sides
00:44:16.320 of the
00:44:16.540 argument,
00:44:17.500 and they
00:44:17.920 can't get
00:44:18.320 it so
00:44:19.260 far.
00:44:21.600 And that's
00:44:22.400 anti-vax,
00:44:23.140 wanting both
00:44:23.600 sides.
00:44:26.000 All right,
00:44:27.560 ladies and
00:44:28.640 gentlemen,
00:44:29.360 I would
00:44:32.780 like to
00:44:33.080 read you
00:44:33.440 my
00:44:33.920 Robots
00:44:34.880 Read News
00:44:35.340 comic,
00:44:37.040 that you
00:44:38.720 could see
00:44:39.120 if you
00:44:39.420 were a
00:44:39.920 subscriber
00:44:40.320 to the
00:44:40.780 Locals
00:44:41.080 platforms,
00:44:41.780 scottadams.
00:44:42.580 Locals.com.
00:44:44.200 But as
00:44:44.620 you know,
00:44:44.980 the robots
00:44:45.480 never move,
00:44:46.600 they're just
00:44:46.980 reading the
00:44:47.580 news,
00:44:48.260 one robot.
00:44:50.020 And the
00:44:50.320 robot says,
00:44:51.220 President Biden
00:44:52.100 expects to
00:44:52.800 spend at
00:44:53.200 least half
00:44:53.700 of his
00:44:54.000 summer vacation
00:44:54.740 in the
00:44:55.220 afterlife.
00:44:56.800 He has a
00:44:57.180 cloud next
00:44:57.740 to Queen
00:44:58.740 Elizabeth,
00:44:59.360 and he
00:45:00.020 is
00:45:00.160 reportedly
00:45:00.640 disturbed
00:45:01.320 every time
00:45:01.940 the wind
00:45:02.280 blows up
00:45:02.920 her flowing
00:45:03.400 robe.
00:45:04.800 So Biden
00:45:05.480 asked God
00:45:06.200 to shave
00:45:06.620 the Queen.
00:45:08.920 God
00:45:09.480 shaved the
00:45:09.960 Queen.
00:45:12.080 It's
00:45:12.640 Father's
00:45:13.200 Day.
00:45:14.980 It's a
00:45:15.680 dad joke.
00:45:17.600 Dad jokes
00:45:18.420 on Father's
00:45:19.080 Days are
00:45:20.000 allowed.
00:45:21.100 They are
00:45:21.500 allowed.
00:45:21.900 God.
00:45:24.480 Now,
00:45:25.640 you might
00:45:26.040 also ask,
00:45:28.540 but what
00:45:29.080 kind of a
00:45:29.580 dad joke
00:45:30.160 did you do
00:45:30.880 for Father's
00:45:31.520 Day?
00:45:33.020 Well,
00:45:33.620 if I could
00:45:34.080 find it,
00:45:34.920 I'd tell you
00:45:35.520 right here.
00:45:37.700 Come on.
00:45:39.740 Here it is.
00:45:41.400 So it's a
00:45:41.860 big old
00:45:42.180 Sunday comic,
00:45:42.940 and this
00:45:44.820 is an
00:45:45.600 example of
00:45:47.300 what I
00:45:47.580 sometimes do
00:45:48.180 in the
00:45:48.400 Dilbert comic,
00:45:49.680 which is I
00:45:50.980 get a little
00:45:51.560 bit ahead of
00:45:52.280 the readers.
00:45:53.940 So the
00:45:54.800 people who are
00:45:55.300 watching this
00:45:55.940 will get this
00:45:56.740 joke, but
00:45:57.600 maybe 80% of
00:45:58.680 the public
00:45:59.040 wouldn't get
00:45:59.600 it, and
00:46:00.380 they'd have to
00:46:00.940 look it up,
00:46:03.720 I guess.
00:46:04.480 Anyway, so the
00:46:05.420 boss is there
00:46:06.120 with Dilbert,
00:46:06.680 and it's a
00:46:07.540 meeting room,
00:46:08.380 and there's an
00:46:09.420 empty chair
00:46:09.860 between them,
00:46:10.420 and the boss
00:46:10.880 says, I
00:46:11.740 called this
00:46:12.160 meeting to
00:46:12.620 introduce our
00:46:13.280 new super
00:46:13.920 prompt engineer.
00:46:15.560 And he
00:46:16.080 looks at the
00:46:16.580 empty chair,
00:46:17.140 and he says,
00:46:17.580 but apparently
00:46:18.060 he's running
00:46:18.480 late.
00:46:19.620 And Dilbert
00:46:20.000 says, the
00:46:21.100 super prompt
00:46:21.800 engineer is
00:46:22.520 late?
00:46:23.760 Boss says,
00:46:24.780 yes, that's
00:46:25.400 what I said.
00:46:26.720 Then Dilbert
00:46:27.280 says, that's
00:46:28.520 not very
00:46:29.060 super prompt,
00:46:30.680 is it?
00:46:32.000 And the
00:46:32.340 boss says,
00:46:33.260 I have no
00:46:33.820 idea what
00:46:34.240 you're talking
00:46:34.580 about.
00:46:35.600 And then the
00:46:36.220 super prompt
00:46:36.740 engineer walks
00:46:37.500 in, and he
00:46:37.960 says, hi
00:46:38.500 everyone, sorry
00:46:39.460 I'm late, I
00:46:40.460 guess I'm not
00:46:41.040 as super
00:46:41.800 prompt as I
00:46:42.500 thought.
00:46:43.940 And then he
00:46:44.580 looks around
00:46:45.140 the room, he
00:46:45.960 says, really?
00:46:47.720 Nothing?
00:46:49.540 And Dilbert
00:46:50.500 touches him
00:46:51.080 gently on the
00:46:51.680 arm and says,
00:46:52.760 let it go.
00:46:55.060 Let it go.
00:46:58.580 All right,
00:46:59.220 that's your
00:46:59.560 dad jokes for
00:47:00.320 the day.
