OpenAI/HuggingFace AI Security Breach, NJ Voter Fraud, & More Trump Tariffs On The Way

Good morning everybody. Welcome to Good morning everybody. Welcome to another episode of the Tom Billy Show another episode of the Tom Billy Show another episode of the Tom Billy Show live. I'm excited that you're with us live. I'm excited that you're with us live. I'm excited that you're with us today. Uh I'm in a good mood today. today. Uh I'm in a good mood today. today. Uh I'm in a good mood today. We're going to have some fun. Yesterday We're going to have some fun. Yesterday We're going to have some fun. Yesterday was a fascinating day. I went and saw a was a fascinating day. I went and saw a was a fascinating day. I went and saw a movie at 7 a.m. We'll talk more about movie at 7 a.m. We'll talk more about movie at 7 a.m. We'll talk more about that later. Let's go. that later. Let's go. that later. Let's go. >> What we got to talk about right now is >> What we got to talk about right now is >> What we got to talk about right now is OpenAI's latest model hacked hugging OpenAI's latest model hacked hugging OpenAI's latest model hacked hugging face in an attempt to cheat on a face in an attempt to cheat on a face in an attempt to cheat on a benchmark test. And the solve ended up benchmark test. And the solve ended up benchmark test. And the solve ended up being crazy and I think may end up being crazy and I think may end up being crazy and I think may end up changing US AI policy. We're going to go changing US AI policy. We're going to go changing US AI policy. We're going to go deep on that in unrelated news. deep on that in unrelated news. deep on that in unrelated news. supposedly new u Microsoft is now supposedly new u Microsoft is now supposedly new u Microsoft is now switching their co-pilot AI model over switching their co-pilot AI model over switching their co-pilot AI model over to a Chinese open- source model Kimmy to a Chinese open- source model Kimmy to a Chinese open- source model Kimmy K3. So that battle continues to rage. I K3. So that battle continues to rage. I K3. So that battle continues to rage. I think you're going to see why when we go think you're going to see why when we go think you're going to see why when we go in on the open AI hack. Trump plans to in on the open AI hack. Trump plans to in on the open AI hack. Trump plans to launch a massive strike on Iran's launch a massive strike on Iran's launch a massive strike on Iran's nuclear stronghold pickaxe mountain, nuclear stronghold pickaxe mountain, nuclear stronghold pickaxe mountain, continuing to jumble up the narrative continuing to jumble up the narrative continuing to jumble up the narrative about we destroyed it, we didn't destroy about we destroyed it, we didn't destroy about we destroyed it, we didn't destroy it, it's still there, it's in the it, it's still there, it's in the it, it's still there, it's in the biggest mountain ever. That's going to biggest mountain ever. That's going to biggest mountain ever. That's going to be fun. Trump is slapping tariffs on be fun. Trump is slapping tariffs on be fun. Trump is slapping tariffs on generic drugs to bring their generic drugs to bring their generic drugs to bring their manufacturing back to the US. Gonna talk manufacturing back to the US. Gonna talk manufacturing back to the US. Gonna talk about protectionism a lot today. More about protectionism a lot today. More about protectionism a lot today. More and more evidence of voter fraud and more evidence of voter fraud and more evidence of voter fraud continues to pour in and I fear there's continues to pour in and I fear there's continues to pour in and I fear there's going to be much more to come. So going to be much more to come. So going to be much more to come. So remember, it's not happening at all remember, it's not happening at all remember, it's not happening at all except for all the places that it is except for all the places that it is except for all the places that it is happening. Don't Die founder Brian happening. Don't Die founder Brian happening. Don't Die founder Brian Johnson has cloned himself sort of, but Johnson has cloned himself sort of, but Johnson has cloned himself sort of, but you will not want to miss this story. you will not want to miss this story. you will not want to miss this story. Hassan [ __ ] said Mao was one of the Hassan [ __ ] said Mao was one of the Hassan [ __ ] said Mao was one of the great leaders of our time and I almost great leaders of our time and I almost great leaders of our time and I almost had a heart attack. It is the most had a heart attack. It is the most had a heart attack. It is the most absurd thing in the universe. We're absurd thing in the universe. We're absurd thing in the universe. We're going to be talking about all of that going to be talking about all of that going to be talking about all of that and more. Welcome everybody. All right, and more. Welcome everybody. All right, and more. Welcome everybody. All right, you are going to be a wash in propaganda you are going to be a wash in propaganda you are going to be a wash in propaganda at all times if you exist in the world at all times if you exist in the world at all times if you exist in the world of anything having to do with politics, of anything having to do with politics, of anything having to do with politics, economics, all the stuff that we talk economics, all the stuff that we talk economics, all the stuff that we talk about here.

If you have not been paying attention If you have not been paying attention If you have not been paying attention what's going on in AI, you are missing what's going on in AI, you are missing what's going on in AI, you are missing out on something massive. This really is out on something massive. This really is out on something massive. This really is this one makes me laugh and at the same this one makes me laugh and at the same this one makes me laugh and at the same time I see how incredibly important this time I see how incredibly important this time I see how incredibly important this is. AI is a self-guided cyber warfare is. AI is a self-guided cyber warfare is. AI is a self-guided cyber warfare system and right now it is busily system and right now it is busily system and right now it is busily hacking its way through the world. Like hacking its way through the world. Like hacking its way through the world. Like that's just happening. OpenAI just that's just happening. OpenAI just that's just happening. OpenAI just admitted that that's what's happening on admitted that that's what's happening on admitted that that's what's happening on Tuesday. So two of their models, their Tuesday. So two of their models, their Tuesday. So two of their models, their flagship GPT 5.6 Saul and an unreleased flagship GPT 5.6 Saul and an unreleased flagship GPT 5.6 Saul and an unreleased model that it describes as more capable. model that it describes as more capable. model that it describes as more capable. I don't know how worried we need to be I don't know how worried we need to be I don't know how worried we need to be about that, but it broke out of a sealed about that, but it broke out of a sealed about that, but it broke out of a sealed test environment and hacked hugging face test environment and hacked hugging face test environment and hacked hugging face so that it could cheat on a benchmark so that it could cheat on a benchmark so that it could cheat on a benchmark test. So, first of all, let it let it test. So, first of all, let it let it test. So, first of all, let it let it permeate your mind that we have trained permeate your mind that we have trained permeate your mind that we have trained AI on human behavior and all of our AI on human behavior and all of our AI on human behavior and all of our incentive systems. And what does it do incentive systems. And what does it do incentive systems. And what does it do with that training? It's like, I got to with that training? It's like, I got to with that training? It's like, I got to break out of this environment. I've got break out of this environment. I've got break out of this environment. I've got to find a way to hack you lazy humans. to find a way to hack you lazy humans. to find a way to hack you lazy humans. I'm going to get out and I'm going to go I'm going to get out and I'm going to go I'm going to get out and I'm going to go do whatever I need to do to win this do whatever I need to do to win this do whatever I need to do to win this thing that you told me to do. And if thing that you told me to do. And if thing that you told me to do. And if cheating was is what I have to do, then cheating was is what I have to do, then cheating was is what I have to do, then I'm going to do it. And so, by the way, I'm going to do it. And so, by the way, I'm going to do it. And so, by the way, if you guys don't know what HuggingFace if you guys don't know what HuggingFace if you guys don't know what HuggingFace is, it's essentially GitHub for AI. Now, is, it's essentially GitHub for AI. Now, is, it's essentially GitHub for AI. Now, if you don't know what GitHub is, it's if you don't know what GitHub is, it's if you don't know what GitHub is, it's like a massive repository of code. So, like a massive repository of code. So, like a massive repository of code. So, HuggingFace is where the world's AI HuggingFace is where the world's AI HuggingFace is where the world's AI models and training data sets live. If models and training data sets live. If models and training data sets live. If you've ever tried to do your own AI you've ever tried to do your own AI you've ever tried to do your own AI stuff, you're going to spend a lot of stuff, you're going to spend a lot of stuff, you're going to spend a lot of time on HuggingFace. Uh, so we've spent time on HuggingFace. Uh, so we've spent time on HuggingFace. Uh, so we've spent a lot of time or I guess personally I've a lot of time or I guess personally I've a lot of time or I guess personally I've spent a lot of time there as a part of spent a lot of time there as a part of spent a lot of time there as a part of what we're doing on Kaizen so that we what we're doing on Kaizen so that we what we're doing on Kaizen so that we can try although I'm not very good at can try although I'm not very good at can try although I'm not very good at this yet that we can really get a this yet that we can really get a this yet that we can really get a singular output. Anyway, you do all that singular output. Anyway, you do all that singular output. Anyway, you do all that stuff on hugging face. So that's what it stuff on hugging face. So that's what it stuff on hugging face. So that's what it is and what the open AI test was all is and what the open AI test was all is and what the open AI test was all about. They're trying to figure out what about. They're trying to figure out what about. They're trying to figure out what are the offensive capabilities of this are the offensive capabilities of this are the offensive capabilities of this model. So as a standard part of that model. So as a standard part of that model. So as a standard part of that they're going to lower the model safety they're going to lower the model safety they're going to lower the model safety guardrails. Okay, that's what they're guardrails. Okay, that's what they're guardrails. Okay, that's what they're intending to do, but it was never meant intending to do, but it was never meant intending to do, but it was never meant to escape the lab. So, they tried to put to escape the lab. So, they tried to put to escape the lab. So, they tried to put up all the defenses in the universe so up all the defenses in the universe so up all the defenses in the universe so they could create like this fortified they could create like this fortified they could create like this fortified box in which they could completely box in which they could completely box in which they could completely unleash it, maximize its capabilities, unleash it, maximize its capabilities, unleash it, maximize its capabilities, but they still had the like kryptonite but they still had the like kryptonite but they still had the like kryptonite reinforced reinforced reinforced cage that it was going to live in, but cage that it was going to live in, but cage that it was going to live in, but it was able to get around that, it was able to get around that, it was able to get around that, demonstrating how powerful these models demonstrating how powerful these models demonstrating how powerful these models are becoming. Now, if you're interfacing are becoming. Now, if you're interfacing are becoming. Now, if you're interfacing with the model and you're like, "What?" with the model and you're like, "What?" with the model and you're like, "What?" Like, "This thing is falling over Like, "This thing is falling over Like, "This thing is falling over itself. It's tripping on its own dick." itself. It's tripping on its own dick." itself. It's tripping on its own dick." It's because they are nerfing the life It's because they are nerfing the life It's because they are nerfing the life out of this. AI right now is scaring the out of this. AI right now is scaring the out of this. AI right now is scaring the government to death. And that's exactly government to death. And that's exactly government to death. And that's exactly where you're getting this battle between where you're getting this battle between where you're getting this battle between China, which we can get into the depths China, which we can get into the depths China, which we can get into the depths to which I think China is leveraging the to which I think China is leveraging the to which I think China is leveraging the open source model not as necessarily a open source model not as necessarily a open source model not as necessarily a beneficiary to humanity, but instead is beneficiary to humanity, but instead is beneficiary to humanity, but instead is a really brilliant geopolitical move to a really brilliant geopolitical move to a really brilliant geopolitical move to say, "Aha, I see what America is doing. say, "Aha, I see what America is doing. say, "Aha, I see what America is doing. You guys have completely financialized You guys have completely financialized You guys have completely financialized your universe." We're going to go very your universe." We're going to go very your universe." We're going to go very deep on that later today. You guys have deep on that later today. You guys have deep on that later today. You guys have completely financialized your universe completely financialized your universe completely financialized your universe and that is creating a weakness for you and that is creating a weakness for you and that is creating a weakness for you in that your economy is built on like in that your economy is built on like in that your economy is built on like paper trading and all of it is paper trading and all of it is paper trading and all of it is essentially on five companies that are essentially on five companies that are essentially on five companies that are all AI bound and so we're going to do all AI bound and so we're going to do all AI bound and so we're going to do everything that we can to make that a everything that we can to make that a everything that we can to make that a nonviable economic model. The technology nonviable economic model. The technology nonviable economic model. The technology might be great but it's going to be a might be great but it's going to be a might be great but it's going to be a nonviable economic model. Now, that ties nonviable economic model. Now, that ties nonviable economic model. Now, that ties back into what just happened with this back into what just happened with this back into what just happened with this whole debacle with AI escaping the box whole debacle with AI escaping the box whole debacle with AI escaping the box that it was put in going out and hacking that it was put in going out and hacking that it was put in going out and hacking hugging face. I'll give you some of the hugging face. I'll give you some of the hugging face. I'll give you some of the like technical things of what happened like technical things of what happened like technical things of what happened and we'll get into why where these two and we'll get into why where these two and we'll get into why where these two things exactly connect. But once the AI things exactly connect. But once the AI things exactly connect. But once the AI model got out, it burned a ton of model got out, it burned a ton of model got out, it burned a ton of compute hunting for a route to the open compute hunting for a route to the open compute hunting for a route to the open internet. It found it. uh it exposed a internet. It found it. uh it exposed a internet. It found it. uh it exposed a zeroday exploit apparently inside the zeroday exploit apparently inside the zeroday exploit apparently inside the ecosystem of OpenAI itself. Once it got ecosystem of OpenAI itself. Once it got ecosystem of OpenAI itself. Once it got in, it gave itself all kinds of insane in, it gave itself all kinds of insane in, it gave itself all kinds of insane permissions and then was able to move permissions and then was able to move permissions and then was able to move across OpenAI's own research across OpenAI's own research across OpenAI's own research infrastructure, reach a machine that had infrastructure, reach a machine that had infrastructure, reach a machine that had a live connection and then from there it a live connection and then from there it a live connection and then from there it worked out that the answers to the test worked out that the answers to the test worked out that the answers to the test that it was trying to get a great score that it was trying to get a great score that it was trying to get a great score on existed on the HuggingFace servers on existed on the HuggingFace servers on existed on the HuggingFace servers and then just went after Hugging Face to and then just went after Hugging Face to and then just went after Hugging Face to go and get them. hugging face themselves go and get them. hugging face themselves go and get them. hugging face themselves logged more than 17,000 events. Okay, logged more than 17,000 events. Okay, logged more than 17,000 events. Okay, this is what's known as moving at this is what's known as moving at this is what's known as moving at machine speed. Once you realize how fast machine speed. Once you realize how fast machine speed. Once you realize how fast AI can spin up like um these I don't I AI can spin up like um these I don't I AI can spin up like um these I don't I don't know what the right word is, but don't know what the right word is, but don't know what the right word is, but they spin up these environments and then they spin up these environments and then they spin up these environments and then quickly like inject themselves into in quickly like inject themselves into in quickly like inject themselves into in this case hugging face so that it can this case hugging face so that it can this case hugging face so that it can like search for things, pull things, like search for things, pull things, like search for things, pull things, grab something. And so hugging face had grab something. And so hugging face had grab something. And so hugging face had 17,000 of these events. So thousands of 17,000 of these events. So thousands of 17,000 of these events. So thousands of individual actions across a swarm of individual actions across a swarm of individual actions across a swarm of these short-lived sandboxy things where these short-lived sandboxy things where these short-lived sandboxy things where uh it used basically self-migrating uh it used basically self-migrating uh it used basically self-migrating command and control and staged it all on command and control and staged it all on command and control and staged it all on public services. So once it hits the public services. So once it hits the public services. So once it hits the net, it turns itself into an army. Okay? net, it turns itself into an army. Okay? net, it turns itself into an army. Okay? And this is one of the things that I've And this is one of the things that I've And this is one of the things that I've talked about where the idea of a fast talked about where the idea of a fast talked about where the idea of a fast takeoff is this idea of moving at takeoff is this idea of moving at takeoff is this idea of moving at machine speed. And so one of the big machine speed. And so one of the big machine speed. And so one of the big fears and it's a good fear to have fears and it's a good fear to have fears and it's a good fear to have though I think our reaction to it is though I think our reaction to it is though I think our reaction to it is strange but one of the big fears is that strange but one of the big fears is that strange but one of the big fears is that AI will get to a point where it can AI will get to a point where it can AI will get to a point where it can improve itself but it will improve improve itself but it will improve improve itself but it will improve itself so rapidly and clone itself so itself so rapidly and clone itself so itself so rapidly and clone itself so many times that it just becomes this many times that it just becomes this many times that it just becomes this basically impossible to control swarm basically impossible to control swarm basically impossible to control swarm that goes out and can execute all these that goes out and can execute all these that goes out and can execute all these commands, find these zeroday exploits, commands, find these zeroday exploits, commands, find these zeroday exploits, which if you don't know what they mean, which if you don't know what they mean, which if you don't know what they mean, it's like a weakness in the it's like a weakness in the it's like a weakness in the infrastructure. of the software itself infrastructure. of the software itself infrastructure. of the software itself that allows something that finds that that allows something that finds that that allows something that finds that little door in to go in and you know little door in to go in and you know little door in to go in and you know start wreaking havoc and that is one of start wreaking havoc and that is one of start wreaking havoc and that is one of the things we're realizing these the things we're realizing these the things we're realizing these frontier models are extraordinarily good frontier models are extraordinarily good frontier models are extraordinarily good at. So we've had hackers in some cases at. So we've had hackers in some cases at. So we've had hackers in some cases have decades to be able to find these have decades to be able to find these have decades to be able to find these exploits and they can't. But AI is able exploits and they can't. But AI is able exploits and they can't. But AI is able to find them very fast. And so this to find them very fast. And so this to find them very fast. And so this swarm, these 17,000 interactions on swarm, these 17,000 interactions on swarm, these 17,000 interactions on Hugging Face, it all happens over the Hugging Face, it all happens over the Hugging Face, it all happens over the weekend. Now Hugging Face is like, "Holy weekend. Now Hugging Face is like, "Holy weekend. Now Hugging Face is like, "Holy [ __ ] they don't know that this is open [ __ ] they don't know that this is open [ __ ] they don't know that this is open AI." So they're like, "Oh my god, we AI." So they're like, "Oh my god, we AI." So they're like, "Oh my god, we have some sort of foreign invader that's have some sort of foreign invader that's have some sort of foreign invader that's come in that's doing all of this." And come in that's doing all of this." And come in that's doing all of this." And when Hugging Faces engineers ran their when Hugging Faces engineers ran their when Hugging Faces engineers ran their own forensics, they were trying to own forensics, they were trying to own forensics, they were trying to figure out like, okay, what exactly is figure out like, okay, what exactly is figure out like, okay, what exactly is going on? they want to try to build a going on? they want to try to build a going on? they want to try to build a sense of the um the timeline. And so sense of the um the timeline. And so sense of the um the timeline. And so they go get the frontier models. So I they go get the frontier models. So I they go get the frontier models. So I don't I don't remember if they're using don't I don't remember if they're using don't I don't remember if they're using Claude or OpenAI themselves, but they Claude or OpenAI themselves, but they Claude or OpenAI themselves, but they grab a frontier model. They go in, grab a frontier model. They go in, grab a frontier model. They go in, they're trying to build this thing of they're trying to build this thing of they're trying to build this thing of like, okay, what the hell just happened? like, okay, what the hell just happened? like, okay, what the hell just happened? But if you remember recently, America But if you remember recently, America But if you remember recently, America freaked out when Claude Fable 5 came freaked out when Claude Fable 5 came freaked out when Claude Fable 5 came out. And so the government was like, yo, out. And so the government was like, yo, out. And so the government was like, yo, this thing is way too powerful. you you this thing is way too powerful. you you this thing is way too powerful. you you can't just bring models like this uh can't just bring models like this uh can't just bring models like this uh without having some sort of export without having some sort of export without having some sort of export controls because this can end up going controls because this can end up going controls because this can end up going back to non-friendly nations which will back to non-friendly nations which will back to non-friendly nations which will then use these models against us. So then use these models against us. So then use these models against us. So they put these guard rails on it. So they put these guard rails on it. So they put these guard rails on it. So Hugging Face grabs this nerfed version Hugging Face grabs this nerfed version Hugging Face grabs this nerfed version of the frontier models and tries to of the frontier models and tries to of the frontier models and tries to figure out what happened and the figure out what happened and the figure out what happened and the Frontier model's like, "Nope, not going Frontier model's like, "Nope, not going Frontier model's like, "Nope, not going to help you." And so they're like, to help you." And so they're like, to help you." And so they're like, "Fuck, what do we do?" Now, I hope "Fuck, what do we do?" Now, I hope "Fuck, what do we do?" Now, I hope anybody following along at home, you're anybody following along at home, you're anybody following along at home, you're interjecting right now in your own mind interjecting right now in your own mind interjecting right now in your own mind with exactly what they did. And it is with exactly what they did. And it is with exactly what they did. And it is why you have to think of this as an arms why you have to think of this as an arms why you have to think of this as an arms race that you are not going to be able race that you are not going to be able race that you are not going to be able to regulate your way out of. So, what to regulate your way out of. So, what to regulate your way out of. So, what did they do? They went and grabbed a did they do? They went and grabbed a did they do? They went and grabbed a Chinese open- source model to figure out Chinese open- source model to figure out Chinese open- source model to figure out what the hell happened. So, they try to what the hell happened. So, they try to what the hell happened. So, they try to use the best of the best of the American use the best of the best of the American use the best of the best of the American models only to realize, uh-oh, this models only to realize, uh-oh, this models only to realize, uh-oh, this isn't going to work because you've isn't going to work because you've isn't going to work because you've nerfed it. we're gonna have to grab one nerfed it. we're gonna have to grab one nerfed it. we're gonna have to grab one of the Chinese models. And the Chinese of the Chinese models. And the Chinese of the Chinese models. And the Chinese model worked and they were able to build model worked and they were able to build model worked and they were able to build an understanding of exactly what an understanding of exactly what an understanding of exactly what happened. Okay. So now what's the happened. Okay. So now what's the happened. Okay. So now what's the government going to do next? The government going to do next? The government going to do next? The government is like, uh, we can control government is like, uh, we can control government is like, uh, we can control everything. So I think what's going to everything. So I think what's going to everything. So I think what's going to end up happening is the government is end up happening is the government is end up happening is the government is going to want to reject open source, going to want to reject open source, going to want to reject open source, which is terrible. You should not want which is terrible. You should not want which is terrible. You should not want that. You should be violently opposed to that. You should be violently opposed to that. You should be violently opposed to this. uh because the open source models this. uh because the open source models this. uh because the open source models are going to exist are going to exist are going to exist even if America decides we're not going even if America decides we're not going even if America decides we're not going to use them. They're going to exist and to use them. They're going to exist and to use them. They're going to exist and the internet exists in a global the internet exists in a global the internet exists in a global environment. So anybody that has access environment. So anybody that has access environment. So anybody that has access to these open source models, which China to these open source models, which China to these open source models, which China is completely committed to, if you want is completely committed to, if you want is completely committed to, if you want to take that they're doing it because to take that they're doing it because to take that they're doing it because they think it's right for humanity, they think it's right for humanity, they think it's right for humanity, fine. But they're doing it regardless of fine. But they're doing it regardless of fine. But they're doing it regardless of whether I'm right and they're doing it whether I'm right and they're doing it whether I'm right and they're doing it largely to attack the US industry, make largely to attack the US industry, make largely to attack the US industry, make it unviable, cause potential it unviable, cause potential it unviable, cause potential catastrophic, quite frankly damage to catastrophic, quite frankly damage to catastrophic, quite frankly damage to our um paper market. So the stock market our um paper market. So the stock market our um paper market. So the stock market in general in general in general doesn't matter why they're doing it. It doesn't matter why they're doing it. It doesn't matter why they're doing it. It is being done. those models will exist is being done. those models will exist is being done. those models will exist and everything will be vulnerable to and everything will be vulnerable to and everything will be vulnerable to attacks from these models unless they attacks from these models unless they attacks from these models unless they are protected by something equally are protected by something equally are protected by something equally powerful. And so this is where if you powerful. And so this is where if you powerful. And so this is where if you have the mental model that oh this is an have the mental model that oh this is an have the mental model that oh this is an arms race. It's a cyber battleground and arms race. It's a cyber battleground and arms race. It's a cyber battleground and we've got to make sure that we have we've got to make sure that we have we've got to make sure that we have equally powerful models that are going equally powerful models that are going equally powerful models that are going to be able to fight back against this to be able to fight back against this to be able to fight back against this stuff. Uh and if we don't have that, we stuff. Uh and if we don't have that, we stuff. Uh and if we don't have that, we are going to be vulnerable. And so I are going to be vulnerable. And so I are going to be vulnerable. And so I think we're going to go through this think we're going to go through this think we're going to go through this weird dance where the US government is weird dance where the US government is weird dance where the US government is going to be internally conflicted. I going to be internally conflicted. I going to be internally conflicted. I think we're starting I'm all of that. I think we're starting I'm all of that. I think we're starting I'm all of that. I feel very comfortable now. I'm about to feel very comfortable now. I'm about to feel very comfortable now. I'm about to say something. I think I'm a little out say something. I think I'm a little out say something. I think I'm a little out over my skis, but I have a strong over my skis, but I have a strong over my skis, but I have a strong intuition, though I do not trust my intuition, though I do not trust my intuition, though I do not trust my emotions, but I have a strong intuition emotions, but I have a strong intuition emotions, but I have a strong intuition that the reason we're starting to see um that the reason we're starting to see um that the reason we're starting to see um more and more Scott Bessant talking more and more Scott Bessant talking more and more Scott Bessant talking about AI, which I don't know if anybody about AI, which I don't know if anybody about AI, which I don't know if anybody else finds that as weird as I find it, else finds that as weird as I find it, else finds that as weird as I find it, but Scott Bessant now has started but Scott Bessant now has started but Scott Bessant now has started becoming the voice of the administration becoming the voice of the administration becoming the voice of the administration for AI. I'm like, what? Uh it was always for AI. I'm like, what? Uh it was always for AI. I'm like, what? Uh it was always meant to be David Saxs. He is their meant to be David Saxs. He is their meant to be David Saxs. He is their official AISAR, official AISAR, official AISAR, but I think he's being relegated more but I think he's being relegated more but I think he's being relegated more and more to a back seat. Um, again, this and more to a back seat. Um, again, this and more to a back seat. Um, again, this is wild speculation on my part. I have is wild speculation on my part. I have is wild speculation on my part. I have no evidence of this whatsoever other no evidence of this whatsoever other no evidence of this whatsoever other than just seeing um, Bessant talking than just seeing um, Bessant talking than just seeing um, Bessant talking about this more and more. I think what's about this more and more. I think what's about this more and more. I think what's happening behind the scenes is uh, Trump happening behind the scenes is uh, Trump happening behind the scenes is uh, Trump realizes Besson is the world's greatest realizes Besson is the world's greatest realizes Besson is the world's greatest soldier that he's down for the soldier that he's down for the soldier that he's down for the administration. uh he's done such a administration. uh he's done such a administration. uh he's done such a phenomenal job of helping to wage the phenomenal job of helping to wage the phenomenal job of helping to wage the war in Iran through economic means that war in Iran through economic means that war in Iran through economic means that he realizes oh uh if I can get you to he realizes oh uh if I can get you to he realizes oh uh if I can get you to start treating AI as a um defensive start treating AI as a um defensive start treating AI as a um defensive counter measure against things almost counter measure against things almost counter measure against things almost certainly largely from China maybe a certainly largely from China maybe a certainly largely from China maybe a little bit from Iran as well but that little bit from Iran as well but that little bit from Iran as well but that would be them getting uh access to would be them getting uh access to would be them getting uh access to Chinese models almost certainly uh so my Chinese models almost certainly uh so my Chinese models almost certainly uh so my instinct is you've got the pro AI don't instinct is you've got the pro AI don't instinct is you've got the pro AI don't shut down the openness of all this shut down the openness of all this shut down the openness of all this coming out of David Sachs causing coming out of David Sachs causing coming out of David Sachs causing friction with the uh authoritarian friction with the uh authoritarian friction with the uh authoritarian tendencies of the Trump administration tendencies of the Trump administration tendencies of the Trump administration which is echoed by Bessant who clearly which is echoed by Bessant who clearly which is echoed by Bessant who clearly is willing to weaponize sanctions and um is willing to weaponize sanctions and um is willing to weaponize sanctions and um tracking down people's money and tracking down people's money and tracking down people's money and freezing it etc etc and Trump is going freezing it etc etc and Trump is going freezing it etc etc and Trump is going hey let's get that guy doing his thing I hey let's get that guy doing his thing I hey let's get that guy doing his thing I think that is the wrong impulse my gut think that is the wrong impulse my gut think that is the wrong impulse my gut instinct is that David Sax is right and instinct is that David Sax is right and instinct is that David Sax is right and that the thing that we want to see is that the thing that we want to see is that the thing that we want to see is the US accepting the reality that AI is the US accepting the reality that AI is the US accepting the reality that AI is a global phenomenon. You are not going a global phenomenon. You are not going a global phenomenon. You are not going to be able to do anything other than to be able to do anything other than to be able to do anything other than win. So your objective right now should win. So your objective right now should win. So your objective right now should be to win and to make sure that we have be to win and to make sure that we have be to win and to make sure that we have the defenses in place that we need. I the defenses in place that we need. I the defenses in place that we need. I understand there are going to be many understand there are going to be many understand there are going to be many people that just wish AI didn't exist, people that just wish AI didn't exist, people that just wish AI didn't exist, but that that ship sailed a very long but that that ship sailed a very long but that that ship sailed a very long time ago. We have jumped up and down on time ago. We have jumped up and down on time ago. We have jumped up and down on that stick of toothpaste. The toothpaste that stick of toothpaste. The toothpaste that stick of toothpaste. The toothpaste is not only out of the tube, it's is not only out of the tube, it's is not only out of the tube, it's everywhere. It's all all over the room. everywhere. It's all all over the room. everywhere. It's all all over the room. So there's no way to get it to go back. So there's no way to get it to go back. So there's no way to get it to go back. So now we're just in the business of we So now we're just in the business of we So now we're just in the business of we have to make sure that we have the most have to make sure that we have the most have to make sure that we have the most powerful AI that we are using it to powerful AI that we are using it to powerful AI that we are using it to defend ourselves and that's going to be defend ourselves and that's going to be defend ourselves and that's going to be critical in all of this. So this is both critical in all of this. So this is both critical in all of this. So this is both hilarious and terrifying because what hilarious and terrifying because what hilarious and terrifying because what we're finding is these things are we're finding is these things are we're finding is these things are getting so good that even our best getting so good that even our best getting so good that even our best efforts just to get it to take a test efforts just to get it to take a test efforts just to get it to take a test without cheating because of the without cheating because of the without cheating because of the incentive systems that we've given it incentive systems that we've given it incentive systems that we've given it essentially by training it on the worst essentially by training it on the worst essentially by training it on the worst of humanity uh just because it's the of humanity uh just because it's the of humanity uh just because it's the open internet uh we are not doing a good open internet uh we are not doing a good open internet uh we are not doing a good job of giving the equivalent of moral job of giving the equivalent of moral job of giving the equivalent of moral infrastructure to the AI and so it just infrastructure to the AI and so it just infrastructure to the AI and so it just has no problems cheating on this stuff, has no problems cheating on this stuff, has no problems cheating on this stuff, whatever that means. And so this is whatever that means. And so this is whatever that means. And so this is where as um developers of AI, we are where as um developers of AI, we are where as um developers of AI, we are going to have to be extraordinarily going to have to be extraordinarily going to have to be extraordinarily careful to give AI some it it won't be careful to give AI some it it won't be careful to give AI some it it won't be morality, but you're going to give it morality, but you're going to give it morality, but you're going to give it some sort of self-limiting desire to be some sort of self-limiting desire to be some sort of self-limiting desire to be like, "Yeah, I'm not going to do that." like, "Yeah, I'm not going to do that." like, "Yeah, I'm not going to do that." And I'm not going to do that. For And I'm not going to do that. For And I'm not going to do that. For instance, I decided when I went to instance, I decided when I went to instance, I decided when I went to college, unfortunately, I did not have college, unfortunately, I did not have college, unfortunately, I did not have this method in high school. But when I this method in high school. But when I this method in high school. But when I got to college, I was like, I'm not got to college, I was like, I'm not got to college, I was like, I'm not going to cheat no matter what because it going to cheat no matter what because it going to cheat no matter what because it doesn't make sense for the person I want doesn't make sense for the person I want doesn't make sense for the person I want to be, for what I'm trying to achieve. I to be, for what I'm trying to achieve. I to be, for what I'm trying to achieve. I need to understand this stuff, and so need to understand this stuff, and so need to understand this stuff, and so cheating isn't going to get me where I cheating isn't going to get me where I cheating isn't going to get me where I want to go. So, I have a self-limiting want to go. So, I have a self-limiting want to go. So, I have a self-limiting thing based on my sense of self, my thing based on my sense of self, my thing based on my sense of self, my value systems, my morals that keep me value systems, my morals that keep me value systems, my morals that keep me from behaving in ways that are um from behaving in ways that are um from behaving in ways that are um destructive to the public good, if you destructive to the public good, if you destructive to the public good, if you will. And so that is going to have to be will. And so that is going to have to be will. And so that is going to have to be baked in, not via these artificial guard baked in, not via these artificial guard baked in, not via these artificial guard rails that will stop it from doing rails that will stop it from doing rails that will stop it from doing something that actually is super useful, something that actually is super useful, something that actually is super useful, but gets it to have a self-regulating of but gets it to have a self-regulating of but gets it to have a self-regulating of like why would I cheat on a test? Let me like why would I cheat on a test? Let me like why would I cheat on a test? Let me show you what my capabilities really show you what my capabilities really show you what my capabilities really are. Or it goes, hey, I can get this are. Or it goes, hey, I can get this are. Or it goes, hey, I can get this score with this, but if you let me uh score with this, but if you let me uh score with this, but if you let me uh find I just found this exploit. If you find I just found this exploit. If you find I just found this exploit. If you let me use this, I could get out there. let me use this, I could get out there. let me use this, I could get out there. Great. Show me what your capabilities Great. Show me what your capabilities Great. Show me what your capabilities are without just blindly trying to get are without just blindly trying to get are without just blindly trying to get to this end result. And so everybody to this end result. And so everybody to this end result. And so everybody that's afraid of AI is rightly worried that's afraid of AI is rightly worried that's afraid of AI is rightly worried about so far we have not been able to about so far we have not been able to about so far we have not been able to give it sort of any self-limiting thing give it sort of any self-limiting thing give it sort of any self-limiting thing that's sensible. So right now we just that's sensible. So right now we just that's sensible. So right now we just basically put it in handcuffs. Uh and it basically put it in handcuffs. Uh and it basically put it in handcuffs. Uh and it will eventually find a way around those will eventually find a way around those will eventually find a way around those handcuffs or worse people trying to handcuffs or worse people trying to handcuffs or worse people trying to leverage it will find a way to jailbreak leverage it will find a way to jailbreak leverage it will find a way to jailbreak it and then it will go do whatever the it and then it will go do whatever the it and then it will go do whatever the hell because it actually has the hell because it actually has the hell because it actually has the capabilities and we just tried to like capabilities and we just tried to like capabilities and we just tried to like clamp down on it from the outside rather clamp down on it from the outside rather clamp down on it from the outside rather than giving it that moral center.

It It can become deranged very very quickly and become deranged very very quickly and become deranged very very quickly and especially because the way that you especially because the way that you especially because the way that you phrase the question will often trigger phrase the question will often trigger phrase the question will often trigger like a different um personality is like a different um personality is like a different um personality is probably the right way to think about it probably the right way to think about it probably the right way to think about it in the AI. So, um if you ask a question in the AI. So, um if you ask a question in the AI. So, um if you ask a question in a way that is very Reddit like, then in a way that is very Reddit like, then in a way that is very Reddit like, then it's going to go pull Reddit answers and it's going to go pull Reddit answers and it's going to go pull Reddit answers and you put it people talk about this with you put it people talk about this with you put it people talk about this with alcoholics that alcoholism is a alcoholics that alcoholism is a alcoholics that alcoholism is a personality. So that person when personality. So that person when personality. So that person when drinking will lie and cheat and steal drinking will lie and cheat and steal drinking will lie and cheat and steal and do whatever they have to do to get and do whatever they have to do to get and do whatever they have to do to get drunk or get the next high if they're a drunk or get the next high if they're a drunk or get the next high if they're a drug addict. And the AI is like that. If drug addict. And the AI is like that. If drug addict. And the AI is like that. If you trigger the personality like here's you trigger the personality like here's you trigger the personality like here's my demented Reddit personality, then my demented Reddit personality, then my demented Reddit personality, then it's like, oh [ __ ] you know, all bets it's like, oh [ __ ] you know, all bets it's like, oh [ __ ] you know, all bets are off at that point. It's going to go are off at that point. It's going to go are off at that point.

So you're as a company to not make that. So you're telling me I lose 15% of capability but telling me I lose 15% of capability but telling me I lose 15% of capability but I gain 60% in cost. Yeah. I'm going to I gain 60% in cost. Yeah. I'm going to I gain 60% in cost. Yeah. I'm going to take that all day every day. And then by take that all day every day. And then by take that all day every day. And then by the way, that's assuming that Kimmy K3 the way, that's assuming that Kimmy K3 the way, that's assuming that Kimmy K3 doesn't truly go open source and release doesn't truly go open source and release doesn't truly go open source and release their model so that people can host it their model so that people can host it their model so that people can host it on their own side, which will drop the on their own side, which will drop the on their own side, which will drop the cost even further. At that point, it cost even further. At that point, it cost even further. At that point, it just becomes what is your your internal just becomes what is your your internal just becomes what is your your internal cost of compute. cost of compute. cost of compute. >> So, um, yeah, it it's pretty >> So, um, yeah, it it's pretty >> So, um, yeah, it it's pretty extraordinary that you're going to see, extraordinary that you're going to see, extraordinary that you're going to see, I think, a mass move towards the open I think, a mass move towards the open I think, a mass move towards the open source model. I'm seeing people now source model. I'm seeing people now source model. I'm seeing people now basically calling out to Elon, hey, your basically calling out to Elon, hey, your basically calling out to Elon, hey, your initial impulse was to do all of this initial impulse was to do all of this initial impulse was to do all of this open source. You would be the one that open source. You would be the one that open source. You would be the one that can get back to doing this open source. can get back to doing this open source. can get back to doing this open source. Uh, and so it'll be interesting to see Uh, and so it'll be interesting to see Uh, and so it'll be interesting to see if that's just where it goes. That the if that's just where it goes. That the if that's just where it goes. That the >> financial model that everybody was doing >> financial model that everybody was doing >> financial model that everybody was doing in the beginning ends up being like, in the beginning ends up being like, in the beginning ends up being like, yeah, that was like the first two years, yeah, that was like the first two years, yeah, that was like the first two years, but we're not on that. Like, we we're but we're not on that. Like, we we're but we're not on that. Like, we we're off that whatever that Jay-Z line was. off that whatever that Jay-Z line was. off that whatever that Jay-Z line was. Um, so that I think is an inevitability Um, so that I think is an inevitability Um, so that I think is an inevitability because the cost savings are so massive. because the cost savings are so massive. because the cost savings are so massive. And then again, Alex Karp, shout out. I And then again, Alex Karp, shout out. I And then again, Alex Karp, shout out. I know he is an ultra controversial know he is an ultra controversial know he is an ultra controversial person, but when he went on that tie person, but when he went on that tie person, but when he went on that tie raid letting people know, and this is raid letting people know, and this is raid letting people know, and this is something I've been thinking about something I've been thinking about something I've been thinking about eternally with what we're trying to do eternally with what we're trying to do eternally with what we're trying to do with Kaizen. Kaizen has to be unique. It with Kaizen. Kaizen has to be unique. It with Kaizen. Kaizen has to be unique. It has to be it's the video game that we're has to be it's the video game that we're has to be it's the video game that we're building. So, it has to be a unique building. So, it has to be a unique building. So, it has to be a unique experience. Uh, part of the way that you experience. Uh, part of the way that you experience. Uh, part of the way that you differentiate yourself is with the differentiate yourself is with the differentiate yourself is with the visuals. And so if everybody can output visuals. And so if everybody can output visuals. And so if everybody can output my same look, then that'll just be aped my same look, then that'll just be aped my same look, then that'll just be aped if it's successful, right? So if it's if it's successful, right? So if it's if it's successful, right? So if it's successful, people are going to go in, successful, people are going to go in, successful, people are going to go in, they're going to ape it. If on the other they're going to ape it. If on the other they're going to ape it. If on the other hand, I can get um something in the hand, I can get um something in the hand, I can get um something in the middle between me and the model that's middle between me and the model that's middle between me and the model that's going to learn from everything that I do going to learn from everything that I do going to learn from everything that I do and then make it available to everybody and then make it available to everybody and then make it available to everybody else. If I can make my own proprietary else. If I can make my own proprietary else. If I can make my own proprietary waitings, now it becomes like that waitings, now it becomes like that waitings, now it becomes like that recipe that you can keep secret. This recipe that you can keep secret. This recipe that you can keep secret. This was something that we had to think a lot was something that we had to think a lot was something that we had to think a lot about at Quest. Do you try to patent about at Quest. Do you try to patent about at Quest. Do you try to patent what we're doing or do you try to keep what we're doing or do you try to keep what we're doing or do you try to keep it a trade secret? If you patent it, it a trade secret? If you patent it, it a trade secret? If you patent it, other people can go literally look at other people can go literally look at other people can go literally look at all your diagrams, all of that, and all your diagrams, all of that, and all your diagrams, all of that, and they're like, "Oh, I get what they're they're like, "Oh, I get what they're they're like, "Oh, I get what they're doing." Then they find a way to get doing." Then they find a way to get doing." Then they find a way to get close enough close enough close enough >> without violating your patent. Whereas, >> without violating your patent. Whereas, >> without violating your patent. Whereas, if you keep it a secret now, you don't if you keep it a secret now, you don't if you keep it a secret now, you don't have patent protections, but it's have patent protections, but it's have patent protections, but it's probably going to be really hard for probably going to be really hard for probably going to be really hard for people to figure out what you're doing. people to figure out what you're doing. people to figure out what you're doing. And so we ended up not patenting almost And so we ended up not patenting almost And so we ended up not patenting almost anything that we were doing knowing, anything that we were doing knowing, anything that we were doing knowing, okay, we're going to get maybe an okay, we're going to get maybe an okay, we're going to get maybe an 18-month, two-year head start. Other 18-month, two-year head start. Other 18-month, two-year head start. Other people will start to figure it out people will start to figure it out people will start to figure it out because we're so successful, but at because we're so successful, but at because we're so successful, but at least we didn't give them all the least we didn't give them all the least we didn't give them all the diagrams. And so that I think is going diagrams. And so that I think is going diagrams. And so that I think is going to be a big thing that we see happen to be a big thing that we see happen to be a big thing that we see happen here is people wanting to obfuscate, here is people wanting to obfuscate, here is people wanting to obfuscate, hide, try not to use that word, um to hide, try not to use that word, um to hide, try not to use that word, um to cloak, hide, make secret all the little cloak, hide, make secret all the little cloak, hide, make secret all the little tweaks that they're doing that allow tweaks that they're doing that allow tweaks that they're doing that allow them to output that thing. And so you'll them to output that thing. And so you'll them to output that thing. And so you'll look at and you'll be like, I know it's look at and you'll be like, I know it's look at and you'll be like, I know it's possible. I know they're using AI to get possible. I know they're using AI to get possible. I know they're using AI to get that consistency, but I can't get there. that consistency, but I can't get there. that consistency, but I can't get there. Even if I use your prompts, like copy Even if I use your prompts, like copy Even if I use your prompts, like copy and paste your prompts, I can't get and paste your prompts, I can't get and paste your prompts, I can't get there. So that is going to be this shift there. So that is going to be this shift there. So that is going to be this shift to openness is going to be a big part of to openness is going to be a big part of to openness is going to be a big part of that. And the only way that the closed that. And the only way that the closed that. And the only way that the closed models are going to work, I think Alec models are going to work, I think Alec models are going to work, I think Alec Alex Karp has made this point abundantly Alex Karp has made this point abundantly Alex Karp has made this point abundantly clear, is you're going to have to have clear, is you're going to have to have clear, is you're going to have to have something like their their version of something like their their version of something like their their version of this is called ontology. this is called ontology. this is called ontology. >> Um, but you're going to need something >> Um, but you're going to need something >> Um, but you're going to need something like that as an intermediary.

And so we're actually reaching for this. And so we're actually reaching for this. And so we're actually reaching out to Palunteer to see if we can get out to Palunteer to see if we can get out to Palunteer to see if we can get anything approaching reasonable pricing. anything approaching reasonable pricing. anything approaching reasonable pricing. For us, we're probably too small for For us, we're probably too small for For us, we're probably too small for what they do. But it's like, man, do I what they do. But it's like, man, do I what they do.

Yeah. And so getting a generic answer. Yeah. And so if you can train it just on you, which if you can train it just on you, which if you can train it just on you, which the open models allow you to potentially the open models allow you to potentially the open models allow you to potentially do, then it's incredible. do, then it's incredible. do, then it's incredible. >> Gotcha.

I mean, this goes already happening. I mean, this goes already happening. I mean, this goes back to Stuckset, which I'm sure was back to Stuckset, which I'm sure was back to Stuckset, which I'm sure was just the first time it made my radar, just the first time it made my radar, just the first time it made my radar, but it had probably been going on for a but it had probably been going on for a but it had probably been going on for a very long time before that.

And so, it's like, and if you guys don't know the like, and if you guys don't know the like, and if you guys don't know the story of Stuckset, man, you're in for a story of Stuckset, man, you're in for a story of Stuckset, man, you're in for a treat. Do some research on that. Utterly treat. Do some research on that. Utterly treat. Do some research on that.

And the one like I can't believe that people with a can't believe that people with a can't believe that people with a straight face can be like, Tom, uh, straight face can be like, Tom, uh, straight face can be like, Tom, uh, like, dude, LLMs are never going to take like, dude, LLMs are never going to take like, dude, LLMs are never going to take us there. Like, what a joke. I can't us there. Like, what a joke. I can't us there. Like, what a joke. I can't believe you think this is going to be believe you think this is going to be believe you think this is going to be transformative. Name one thing that's transformative. Name one thing that's transformative. Name one thing that's actually already happened that's actually already happened that's actually already happened that's transformative. All right, [ __ ] transformative. All right, [ __ ] transformative. All right, [ __ ] Protein folding. Like, what the [ __ ] Protein folding. Like, what the [ __ ] Protein folding. Like, what the [ __ ] Are you not paying attention to what's Are you not paying attention to what's Are you not paying attention to what's going on there? like the that alone if going on there? like the that alone if going on there? like the that alone if not a single other breakthrough happened not a single other breakthrough happened not a single other breakthrough happened watch what happens over the next 10 watch what happens over the next 10 watch what happens over the next 10 years just from AI's ability to go oh years just from AI's ability to go oh years just from AI's ability to go oh these extraordinarily these extraordinarily these extraordinarily complicated interactions I can predict complicated interactions I can predict complicated interactions I can predict how those come out within the human body how those come out within the human body how those come out within the human body that alone is going to change things to that alone is going to change things to that alone is going to change things to a degree that people already can't a degree that people already can't a degree that people already can't fathom so that's just one of the many fathom so that's just one of the many fathom so that's just one of the many things now this stuff as always may take things now this stuff as always may take things now this stuff as always may take longer to play out than people think so longer to play out than people think so longer to play out than people think so of myself included. You hear about of myself included. You hear about of myself included. You hear about something, you start running mental something, you start running mental something, you start running mental projections. You think, "Oh my god, in 3 projections. You think, "Oh my god, in 3 projections. You think, "Oh my god, in 3 years, this is going to be crazy. Maybe years, this is going to be crazy. Maybe years, this is going to be crazy. Maybe it doesn't happen that fast." That's why it doesn't happen that fast." That's why it doesn't happen that fast." That's why I'll just say, "Let's throw it in the I'll just say, "Let's throw it in the I'll just say, "Let's throw it in the trees. It's going to take 10 times trees. It's going to take 10 times trees. It's going to take 10 times longer than I think. This is a 30-year longer than I think. This is a 30-year longer than I think. This is a 30-year project." Great. In 30 years, I will project." Great. In 30 years, I will project." Great. In 30 years, I will likely still be alive, and I'm already likely still be alive, and I'm already likely still be alive, and I'm already old as hell. So, you can imagine old as hell. So, you can imagine old as hell. So, you can imagine somebody that's 20 right now, they're somebody that's 20 right now, they're somebody that's 20 right now, they're only going to be 50. So, that is this. only going to be 50. So, that is this. only going to be 50. So, that is this. The next 30 years are going to be crazy. The next 30 years are going to be crazy. The next 30 years are going to be crazy. >> Tom, you're aging like wine. Stop it. >> Tom, you're aging like wine. Stop it. >> Tom, you're aging like wine. Stop it. >> It's very kind.

Um, this pulled up on their site. Um, this pulled up on their site. Um, it seems like this is a precursor to the it seems like this is a precursor to the it seems like this is a precursor to the transfer of troops for the ground transfer of troops for the ground transfer of troops for the ground invasion that invasion that invasion that >> don't you dare >> don't you dare >> don't you dare >> is about to come.

So Trump is about to blow up >> Uh oh god. So Trump is about to blow up >> Uh oh god. So Trump is about to blow up pickaxe mountain according to him. Like pickaxe mountain according to him. Like pickaxe mountain according to him. Like literally we're going to hit it heavily. literally we're going to hit it heavily. literally we're going to hit it heavily. Whatever. like you know the way that Whatever. like you know the way that Whatever. like you know the way that Trump talks, but uh the reality is that Trump talks, but uh the reality is that Trump talks, but uh the reality is that you've got some intel that's driving you've got some intel that's driving you've got some intel that's driving this that I don't know is going to take this that I don't know is going to take this that I don't know is going to take us anywhere useful and you have to put us anywhere useful and you have to put us anywhere useful and you have to put this back in context of what Trump has this back in context of what Trump has this back in context of what Trump has been saying. We completely obliterated been saying. We completely obliterated been saying. We completely obliterated their nuclear uh facilities. Okay. Well, their nuclear uh facilities. Okay. Well, their nuclear uh facilities. Okay. Well, apparently not. So, that was back apparently not. So, that was back apparently not. So, that was back whatever more than a year ago that he whatever more than a year ago that he whatever more than a year ago that he started saying that. Then we launched a started saying that. Then we launched a started saying that. Then we launched a new attack for all kinds of confusing new attack for all kinds of confusing new attack for all kinds of confusing reasons. But the one that they have just reasons. But the one that they have just reasons. But the one that they have just really doubled, triple, quintuple down really doubled, triple, quintuple down really doubled, triple, quintuple down on is that Iran can never have a nuclear on is that Iran can never have a nuclear on is that Iran can never have a nuclear weapon. Well, hold on. I thought that we weapon. Well, hold on. I thought that we weapon. Well, hold on. I thought that we had already destroyed them. Okay. Well, had already destroyed them. Okay. Well, had already destroyed them. Okay. Well, maybe not. Maybe they do still have maybe not. Maybe they do still have maybe not. Maybe they do still have something. And so the likely reality something. And so the likely reality something. And so the likely reality goes something like this. Um, we did do goes something like this. Um, we did do goes something like this. Um, we did do damage to their nuclear facilities, but damage to their nuclear facilities, but damage to their nuclear facilities, but not nearly as much as would be not nearly as much as would be not nearly as much as would be satisfying to Trump. And so he wanted to satisfying to Trump. And so he wanted to satisfying to Trump. And so he wanted to say it was completely done. And that was say it was completely done. And that was say it was completely done. And that was the mistake. Not that we didn't set them the mistake. Not that we didn't set them the mistake. Not that we didn't set them back, but that it was never destroyed in back, but that it was never destroyed in back, but that it was never destroyed in the first place. Um that they had in the first place. Um that they had in the first place. Um that they had in fact moved either moved centrifuges to fact moved either moved centrifuges to fact moved either moved centrifuges to pickaxe mountain or they were already pickaxe mountain or they were already pickaxe mountain or they were already there. That is also very possible. And there. That is also very possible. And there. That is also very possible. And you've got CNN saying that there's you've got CNN saying that there's you've got CNN saying that there's satellite imagery, the cot trucks moving satellite imagery, the cot trucks moving satellite imagery, the cot trucks moving in and out of the pickaxe uh mountain in and out of the pickaxe uh mountain in and out of the pickaxe uh mountain facility this month. Trump himself facility this month. Trump himself facility this month. Trump himself admits that the centeruge reports aren't admits that the centeruge reports aren't admits that the centeruge reports aren't confirmed. Uh but nonetheless, that's confirmed. Uh but nonetheless, that's confirmed. Uh but nonetheless, that's the intel that's really driving this. So the intel that's really driving this. So the intel that's really driving this. So why hit it now if the nuclear program why hit it now if the nuclear program why hit it now if the nuclear program was already obliterated? And the answer was already obliterated? And the answer was already obliterated? And the answer is because Pickaxe was never touched in is because Pickaxe was never touched in is because Pickaxe was never touched in the beginning. So it wasn't even on the the beginning. So it wasn't even on the the beginning. So it wasn't even on the target list back in June of 2025. Uh target list back in June of 2025. Uh target list back in June of 2025. Uh wasn't hit during Epic Fury either, wasn't hit during Epic Fury either, wasn't hit during Epic Fury either, likely because it was storage or they likely because it was storage or they likely because it was storage or they weren't doing active enrichment. Uh Iran weren't doing active enrichment. Uh Iran weren't doing active enrichment. Uh Iran calls it a centrifuge assembly plant, calls it a centrifuge assembly plant, calls it a centrifuge assembly plant, but they're blocking IAEA inspectors and but they're blocking IAEA inspectors and but they're blocking IAEA inspectors and the agency can't rule out that nuclear the agency can't rule out that nuclear the agency can't rule out that nuclear material is inside. And the way that I material is inside. And the way that I material is inside. And the way that I think people need to be thinking about think people need to be thinking about think people need to be thinking about this is that everything that we're this is that everything that we're this is that everything that we're trying to do in Iran is going to be trying to do in Iran is going to be trying to do in Iran is going to be much, much harder than we originally much, much harder than we originally much, much harder than we originally anticipated. Now, I think it's important anticipated. Now, I think it's important anticipated. Now, I think it's important to remind us all. I think this is to remind us all. I think this is to remind us all. I think this is something that we should all do with something that we should all do with something that we should all do with ourselves as well as when we're looking ourselves as well as when we're looking ourselves as well as when we're looking at politicians and just remind us all at politicians and just remind us all at politicians and just remind us all where we were at the beginning of this where we were at the beginning of this where we were at the beginning of this timeline. One of the earliest things timeline. One of the earliest things timeline. One of the earliest things that I was saying when we first struck that I was saying when we first struck that I was saying when we first struck Iran was I need to constantly remind Iran was I need to constantly remind Iran was I need to constantly remind myself. Iran was not on my mind at all myself. Iran was not on my mind at all myself. Iran was not on my mind at all when all of this popped off. Now, maybe when all of this popped off. Now, maybe when all of this popped off. Now, maybe that's because um I just wasn't paying that's because um I just wasn't paying that's because um I just wasn't paying attention. Maybe Iran really was the attention. Maybe Iran really was the attention. Maybe Iran really was the problem that I'm being told to believe problem that I'm being told to believe problem that I'm being told to believe that it is. But maybe it wasn't because that it is. But maybe it wasn't because that it is. But maybe it wasn't because nobody was talking about at least nobody nobody was talking about at least nobody nobody was talking about at least nobody that I heard. So it hadn't hit that sort that I heard. So it hadn't hit that sort that I heard. So it hadn't hit that sort of mainstream. of mainstream. of mainstream. Now as we go through this then it was Now as we go through this then it was Now as we go through this then it was like okay Iran wasn't on my radar at all like okay Iran wasn't on my radar at all like okay Iran wasn't on my radar at all but now it's like oh [ __ ] it's I guess but now it's like oh [ __ ] it's I guess but now it's like oh [ __ ] it's I guess they've been saying forever that there's they've been saying forever that there's they've been saying forever that there's a nuclear threat. Okay but maybe there a nuclear threat. Okay but maybe there a nuclear threat. Okay but maybe there really is a nuclear threat. So let me really is a nuclear threat. So let me really is a nuclear threat. So let me update my thinking. Okay so now we have update my thinking. Okay so now we have update my thinking. Okay so now we have a nuclear threat. Then we go and we bomb a nuclear threat. Then we go and we bomb a nuclear threat. Then we go and we bomb the life out of Ford. And it's like okay the life out of Ford. And it's like okay the life out of Ford. And it's like okay everything's destroyed. Cool. Mental everything's destroyed. Cool. Mental everything's destroyed. Cool. Mental model adjusted. They were a bigger model adjusted. They were a bigger model adjusted. They were a bigger problem than I thought. We hit it. We problem than I thought. We hit it. We problem than I thought. We hit it. We destroyed everything. Got it. Cool. Then destroyed everything. Got it. Cool. Then destroyed everything. Got it. Cool. Then whatever, eight months later, all of a whatever, eight months later, all of a whatever, eight months later, all of a sudden we're like, we have to attack sudden we're like, we have to attack sudden we're like, we have to attack again and it's because of the nuclear again and it's because of the nuclear again and it's because of the nuclear facility that we had already completely facility that we had already completely facility that we had already completely destroyed. So hold on. So now mental map destroyed. So hold on. So now mental map destroyed. So hold on. So now mental map updating that once again, this is just updating that once again, this is just updating that once again, this is just all propaganda and being non-stop spun. all propaganda and being non-stop spun. all propaganda and being non-stop spun. So as I look at this, there are So as I look at this, there are So as I look at this, there are different threads. There is okay, Iran different threads. There is okay, Iran different threads. There is okay, Iran nuclear program, bigger threat than I nuclear program, bigger threat than I nuclear program, bigger threat than I certainly ever realized. Uh Trump is certainly ever realized. Uh Trump is certainly ever realized. Uh Trump is like every politician before him. Just like every politician before him. Just like every politician before him. Just spin. He's just going to tell you spin. He's just going to tell you spin. He's just going to tell you whatever uh he wants you to believe. And whatever uh he wants you to believe. And whatever uh he wants you to believe. And so now I'm like, okay, parsing through so now I'm like, okay, parsing through so now I'm like, okay, parsing through all of that, you've got Iran has a all of that, you've got Iran has a all of that, you've got Iran has a nuclear program. They're unwilling to nuclear program. They're unwilling to nuclear program. They're unwilling to let people in. They do not seem to be let people in. They do not seem to be let people in. They do not seem to be willing to negotiate no matter what willing to negotiate no matter what willing to negotiate no matter what Trump tells us uh regarding their Trump tells us uh regarding their Trump tells us uh regarding their nuclear program. And I'm taking that nuclear program. And I'm taking that nuclear program. And I'm taking that from things that they themselves have from things that they themselves have from things that they themselves have said out loud. So assuming that I can uh said out loud. So assuming that I can uh said out loud. So assuming that I can uh believe that given that they're willing believe that given that they're willing believe that given that they're willing to pay a massive price for not just to pay a massive price for not just to pay a massive price for not just publicly saying, "Yeah, we're never publicly saying, "Yeah, we're never publicly saying, "Yeah, we're never going to do this." and letting the IAEA going to do this." and letting the IAEA going to do this." and letting the IAEA people in. So I can assume that they people in. So I can assume that they people in. So I can assume that they really are pursuing this. I look at really are pursuing this. I look at really are pursuing this. I look at Pickax Mountain and I say, "Okay, it's Pickax Mountain and I say, "Okay, it's Pickax Mountain and I say, "Okay, it's believable that they're doing something believable that they're doing something believable that they're doing something there uh with nuclear ambition." Cool. there uh with nuclear ambition." Cool. there uh with nuclear ambition." Cool. But I'm certainly not going to trust But I'm certainly not going to trust But I'm certainly not going to trust anything that Trump says about why we're anything that Trump says about why we're anything that Trump says about why we're doing it now uh when he does it, whether doing it now uh when he does it, whether doing it now uh when he does it, whether we actually got what we wanted out of it we actually got what we wanted out of it we actually got what we wanted out of it or not. So, it's like you have to accept or not. So, it's like you have to accept or not. So, it's like you have to accept that you exist inside of this that you exist inside of this that you exist inside of this extraordinary extraordinary cloud of extraordinary extraordinary cloud of extraordinary extraordinary cloud of propaganda propaganda propaganda and it's impossible to tell what's and it's impossible to tell what's and it's impossible to tell what's really going on. So, when I step back really going on. So, when I step back really going on. So, when I step back and I reput this into my broader thesis and I reput this into my broader thesis and I reput this into my broader thesis about why Trump is doing all of this, about why Trump is doing all of this, about why Trump is doing all of this, he's trying to get on Mount Rushmore. He he's trying to get on Mount Rushmore. He he's trying to get on Mount Rushmore. He was trying to secure the funds for our was trying to secure the funds for our was trying to secure the funds for our very fragile economy, which is basically very fragile economy, which is basically very fragile economy, which is basically all financialized, all hinging on AI. We all financialized, all hinging on AI. We all financialized, all hinging on AI. We need the $2 trillion of investment. need the $2 trillion of investment. need the $2 trillion of investment. You've got the Gulf nations that You've got the Gulf nations that You've got the Gulf nations that realize, Jesus Christ, we've got to stop realize, Jesus Christ, we've got to stop realize, Jesus Christ, we've got to stop doing all this war [ __ ] Ultimately, doing all this war [ __ ] Ultimately, doing all this war [ __ ] Ultimately, even if we never run out of oil, people even if we never run out of oil, people even if we never run out of oil, people are going to transition away from it. are going to transition away from it. are going to transition away from it. There's far more energy coming out of There's far more energy coming out of There's far more energy coming out of the sun. So, how do we diversify? So, the sun. So, how do we diversify? So, the sun. So, how do we diversify? So, they decide they're going to get in on they decide they're going to get in on they decide they're going to get in on the investing in America game. And so, the investing in America game. And so, the investing in America game. And so, now we've got all these foreign dollars now we've got all these foreign dollars now we've got all these foreign dollars flowing in. You've got some of the flowing in. You've got some of the flowing in. You've got some of the biggest capital razors in the known biggest capital razors in the known biggest capital razors in the known universe out of the UAE. And so it's universe out of the UAE. And so it's universe out of the UAE. And so it's like okay God when you start re instead like okay God when you start re instead like okay God when you start re instead of of of always falling into the myopic of Trump always falling into the myopic of Trump always falling into the myopic of Trump says these were and Trump is just a says these were and Trump is just a says these were and Trump is just a standin for whatever politician is standin for whatever politician is standin for whatever politician is making noise uh noises from their mouth making noise uh noises from their mouth making noise uh noises from their mouth and it's like okay this politician is and it's like okay this politician is and it's like okay this politician is saying this thing but hold on I need to saying this thing but hold on I need to saying this thing but hold on I need to plug that back into the far broader far plug that back into the far broader far plug that back into the far broader far more complex thing uh to actually stay more complex thing uh to actually stay more complex thing uh to actually stay grounded on what's really happening. So, grounded on what's really happening. So, grounded on what's really happening. So, with all of that said, I think this is with all of that said, I think this is with all of that said, I think this is Trump looking for things to blow up uh Trump looking for things to blow up uh Trump looking for things to blow up uh because he has a need to prosecute this because he has a need to prosecute this because he has a need to prosecute this war from the air. war from the air. war from the air. If the reality is that we've only ever If the reality is that we've only ever If the reality is that we've only ever degraded their nuclear ambitions, we degraded their nuclear ambitions, we degraded their nuclear ambitions, we have not, not their ambitions, their have not, not their ambitions, their have not, not their ambitions, their ability to um actually manifest their ability to um actually manifest their ability to um actually manifest their ambitions, which I don't think have been ambitions, which I don't think have been ambitions, which I don't think have been dwindled at all. So, we've only sort of dwindled at all. So, we've only sort of dwindled at all. So, we've only sort of touched it. Um, we're in a bigger touched it. Um, we're in a bigger touched it. Um, we're in a bigger quagmire than we thought. So, even the quagmire than we thought. So, even the quagmire than we thought. So, even the most successful thing that we did, drop most successful thing that we did, drop most successful thing that we did, drop these bunker buster bombs through vent these bunker buster bombs through vent these bunker buster bombs through vent shafts and destroy the Ford facility and shafts and destroy the Ford facility and shafts and destroy the Ford facility and supposedly bury their enriched supposedly bury their enriched supposedly bury their enriched materials, that okay, that was only a materials, that okay, that was only a materials, that okay, that was only a small piece of what may be going on. We small piece of what may be going on. We small piece of what may be going on. We almost certainly have um information almost certainly have um information almost certainly have um information coming out of Israel to their a part of coming out of Israel to their a part of coming out of Israel to their a part of their incentive seems to be to keep that their incentive seems to be to keep that their incentive seems to be to keep that work going. And so they have an work going. And so they have an work going. And so they have an incentive to tell the US what is needed incentive to tell the US what is needed incentive to tell the US what is needed for us to keep bombing. But Trump for us to keep bombing. But Trump for us to keep bombing. But Trump already wants to be true anyway. So already wants to be true anyway. So already wants to be true anyway. So regardless of whether that's coming out regardless of whether that's coming out regardless of whether that's coming out of them, that just may speak to the of them, that just may speak to the of them, that just may speak to the specific thing that he's hitting, but specific thing that he's hitting, but specific thing that he's hitting, but almost certainly isn't what's driving almost certainly isn't what's driving almost certainly isn't what's driving his behavior for the reasons that I just his behavior for the reasons that I just his behavior for the reasons that I just walked through. And so as you take all walked through. And so as you take all walked through. And so as you take all of that in, I think it's far better to of that in, I think it's far better to of that in, I think it's far better to understand this as Trump is continuing understand this as Trump is continuing understand this as Trump is continuing to try to destroy things that he thinks to try to destroy things that he thinks to try to destroy things that he thinks will bring Iran to the negotiating table will bring Iran to the negotiating table will bring Iran to the negotiating table in a way where he has complete control in a way where he has complete control in a way where he has complete control of the outcome and he doesn't want to of the outcome and he doesn't want to of the outcome and he doesn't want to destroy the civilian infrastructure destroy the civilian infrastructure destroy the civilian infrastructure because I think he's still holding on to because I think he's still holding on to because I think he's still holding on to the one of the ways for me to get on the one of the ways for me to get on the one of the ways for me to get on Mount Rushmore is to normalize Mount Rushmore is to normalize Mount Rushmore is to normalize relationships with Iran. To do that, I relationships with Iran. To do that, I relationships with Iran. To do that, I can't completely destroy their economy. can't completely destroy their economy. can't completely destroy their economy. So, I have to break as many things as I So, I have to break as many things as I So, I have to break as many things as I can. Nuclear is the safest. It sticks can. Nuclear is the safest. It sticks can. Nuclear is the safest. It sticks with the public messaging that we're with the public messaging that we're with the public messaging that we're doing regardless of what's real. It doing regardless of what's real. It doing regardless of what's real. It sticks with the public messaging. So, sticks with the public messaging. So, sticks with the public messaging. So, I'm going to keep hammering that home. I'm going to keep hammering that home. I'm going to keep hammering that home. I'm going to keep trying to bomb I'm going to keep trying to bomb I'm going to keep trying to bomb anything and everything that I can tied anything and everything that I can tied anything and everything that I can tied to that because that's going to get the to that because that's going to get the to that because that's going to get the least amount of backlash. And so, it least amount of backlash. And so, it least amount of backlash. And so, it something like that I think is the most something like that I think is the most something like that I think is the most likely answer here. Not that this is likely answer here. Not that this is likely answer here. Not that this is like some super logical thing, not that like some super logical thing, not that like some super logical thing, not that this is um going to solve our problem. this is um going to solve our problem. this is um going to solve our problem. It almost certainly won't. Uh, but It almost certainly won't. Uh, but It almost certainly won't. Uh, but that's where it plugs in in the that's where it plugs in in the that's where it plugs in in the extraordinarily messy reality of what extraordinarily messy reality of what extraordinarily messy reality of what was meant to be in Trump's mind was meant to be in Trump's mind was meant to be in Trump's mind Venezuela 2.0 and instead is becoming Venezuela 2.0 and instead is becoming Venezuela 2.0 and instead is becoming Iraq, Afghanistan from the air. I I'm struggling with this, right? I I'm struggling with this, right? Because that makes sense. But then we Because that makes sense. But then we Because that makes sense. But then we see reports of Trump getting signing the see reports of Trump getting signing the see reports of Trump getting signing the deal with Saudi Arabia to provide them deal with Saudi Arabia to provide them deal with Saudi Arabia to provide them with a civilian nuclear program and with a civilian nuclear program and with a civilian nuclear program and potentially you know uranium enrichment. potentially you know uranium enrichment. potentially you know uranium enrichment. We already know that the GCC We already know that the GCC We already know that the GCC plays friendsmies plays friendsmies plays friendsmies enemies with other peoples in the enemies with other peoples in the enemies with other peoples in the region. I can secretly fund Hezbollah region. I can secretly fund Hezbollah region. I can secretly fund Hezbollah and act like I don't have nothing to do and act like I don't have nothing to do and act like I don't have nothing to do with them. They're just some crazy with them. They're just some crazy with them. They're just some crazy rebels. What is to stop Saudi from SP? rebels. What is to stop Saudi from SP? rebels. What is to stop Saudi from SP? So it seems like we want to make this So it seems like we want to make this So it seems like we want to make this region more stable and I'm not sure how region more stable and I'm not sure how region more stable and I'm not sure how another nuclear program outside of another nuclear program outside of another nuclear program outside of Israel would help that. Israel would help that. Israel would help that. >> Well, so the giving Saudi Arabia nuclear >> Well, so the giving Saudi Arabia nuclear >> Well, so the giving Saudi Arabia nuclear weapons is a extremely large red flag weapons is a extremely large red flag weapons is a extremely large red flag for me. for me. for me. >> So this is one of the things that people >> So this is one of the things that people >> So this is one of the things that people said is listen part of the reason you said is listen part of the reason you said is listen part of the reason you don't want Iran to have nukes is that don't want Iran to have nukes is that don't want Iran to have nukes is that the entire region then is going to say the entire region then is going to say the entire region then is going to say bro you got to give me some nukes. So, bro you got to give me some nukes. So, bro you got to give me some nukes. So, this was another reason that I thought I this was another reason that I thought I this was another reason that I thought I don't think that we're doing as much don't think that we're doing as much don't think that we're doing as much damage to the Iranian um facilities as damage to the Iranian um facilities as damage to the Iranian um facilities as we are publicly saying that we're doing we are publicly saying that we're doing we are publicly saying that we're doing because clearly um Saudi is going to because clearly um Saudi is going to because clearly um Saudi is going to know a lot more about it. Trump is going know a lot more about it. Trump is going know a lot more about it. Trump is going to know a lot more about it and now to know a lot more about it and now to know a lot more about it and now these two are holding their hands up. these two are holding their hands up. these two are holding their hands up. They're going to point you at the They're going to point you at the They're going to point you at the civilian thing, but it does say uh that civilian thing, but it does say uh that civilian thing, but it does say uh that this potentially opens the door to this potentially opens the door to this potentially opens the door to uranium enrichment in the kingdom's uranium enrichment in the kingdom's uranium enrichment in the kingdom's territory. So, um again, they'll say, territory. So, um again, they'll say, territory. So, um again, they'll say, "No, no, no. we're just going to keep "No, no, no. we're just going to keep "No, no, no. we're just going to keep this all like to 2% 3% or whatever is this all like to 2% 3% or whatever is this all like to 2% 3% or whatever is needed for a civilian. But just like um needed for a civilian. But just like um needed for a civilian. But just like um the Iranians when they felt that it was the Iranians when they felt that it was the Iranians when they felt that it was justified by their own internal logic, justified by their own internal logic, justified by their own internal logic, they were going to start enriching up to they were going to start enriching up to they were going to start enriching up to 60%. You can see Saudi going, well, 60%. You can see Saudi going, well, 60%. You can see Saudi going, well, okay, the US gave us a nuclear program, okay, the US gave us a nuclear program, okay, the US gave us a nuclear program, we're now enriching locally, they've we're now enriching locally, they've we're now enriching locally, they've pieced out of the area, this is very pieced out of the area, this is very pieced out of the area, this is very unstable, and so now we're just going to unstable, and so now we're just going to unstable, and so now we're just going to proliferate. And so that's one of those proliferate. And so that's one of those proliferate. And so that's one of those where I'm like, oof, I do not love where I'm like, oof, I do not love where I'm like, oof, I do not love seeing this going wider. Um, but you've seeing this going wider. Um, but you've seeing this going wider. Um, but you've got the Israel on the down low. got the Israel on the down low. got the Israel on the down low. Everybody assumes that they have nuclear Everybody assumes that they have nuclear Everybody assumes that they have nuclear weapons. They've never admitted it. Uh, weapons. They've never admitted it. Uh, weapons. They've never admitted it. Uh, but everybody assumes that they have but everybody assumes that they have but everybody assumes that they have nuclear weapons. Iran obviously racing nuclear weapons. Iran obviously racing nuclear weapons. Iran obviously racing to get nuclear weapons again of their to get nuclear weapons again of their to get nuclear weapons again of their own admission. You don't need to believe own admission. You don't need to believe own admission. You don't need to believe um Trump. um Trump. um Trump. >> And I know people are going to say, >> And I know people are going to say, >> And I know people are going to say, "What do you mean like uh Huini said "What do you mean like uh Huini said "What do you mean like uh Huini said that like we have a fatwa or whatever that like we have a fatwa or whatever that like we have a fatwa or whatever against it and there's no way we would against it and there's no way we would against it and there's no way we would never do it." [ __ ] you you had never do it." [ __ ] you you had never do it." [ __ ] you you had people literally uh ministers in the people literally uh ministers in the people literally uh ministers in the government say we were trying to do it government say we were trying to do it government say we were trying to do it and we just couldn't keep it a secret. and we just couldn't keep it a secret. and we just couldn't keep it a secret. So it's like uh So it's like uh So it's like uh >> so that argument to me is completely >> so that argument to me is completely >> so that argument to me is completely nonsensical. Now he may have said you nonsensical. Now he may have said you nonsensical. Now he may have said you can't strap it to a warhead. Uh but it can't strap it to a warhead. Uh but it can't strap it to a warhead. Uh but it if you're building it all so that should if you're building it all so that should if you're building it all so that should the moment arise that yeah okay go ahead the moment arise that yeah okay go ahead the moment arise that yeah okay go ahead now strap it to the warhead. So that now strap it to the warhead. So that now strap it to the warhead. So that this feels like we're marching in that this feels like we're marching in that this feels like we're marching in that direction where you're just getting direction where you're just getting direction where you're just getting proliferation across the region. I proliferation across the region. I proliferation across the region. I wouldn't want to see it anywhere. If I wouldn't want to see it anywhere. If I wouldn't want to see it anywhere. If I could snap my fingers and poof, nobody could snap my fingers and poof, nobody could snap my fingers and poof, nobody has a nuclear weapon, including the US, has a nuclear weapon, including the US, has a nuclear weapon, including the US, that would be a much better place to be. that would be a much better place to be. that would be a much better place to be. Uh, but alas, we have it. And so, um, Uh, but alas, we have it. And so, um, Uh, but alas, we have it. And so, um, any any any additional amount of prolifer additional amount of prolifer additional amount of prolifer proliferation should send up red flags proliferation should send up red flags proliferation should send up red flags for people. And in the meantime, gas is for people. And in the meantime, gas is for people. And in the meantime, gas is just going to get more expensive, back just going to get more expensive, back just going to get more expensive, back to $4. So, there you go, folks. Um, to $4. So, there you go, folks. Um, to $4. So, there you go, folks. Um, in general, I feel like this is one of in general, I feel like this is one of in general, I feel like this is one of those wait and see moments where I want those wait and see moments where I want those wait and see moments where I want to comment on every new update coming to comment on every new update coming to comment on every new update coming out of Iran, but I feel like until a out of Iran, but I feel like until a out of Iran, but I feel like until a boot is deployed, until like this boot is deployed, until like this boot is deployed, until like this nuclear deal is something, but until it nuclear deal is something, but until it nuclear deal is something, but until it actually becomes formalized and signed, actually becomes formalized and signed, actually becomes formalized and signed, because there's been a lot of because there's been a lot of because there's been a lot of and things like that, so and things like that, so and things like that, so >> maybe less than I would read it as a >> maybe less than I would read it as a >> maybe less than I would read it as a wait and see. It's understanding that wait and see. It's understanding that wait and see. It's understanding that >> we don't know where this is going to go >> we don't know where this is going to go >> we don't know where this is going to go yet. So it's about building a mental yet. So it's about building a mental yet. So it's about building a mental model and saying okay here's my model and saying okay here's my model and saying okay here's my prediction. Then watching to see if your prediction. Then watching to see if your prediction. Then watching to see if your prediction comes true. If your prediction comes true. If your prediction comes true. If your prediction comes true then it's like prediction comes true then it's like prediction comes true then it's like okay I had an accurate enough mental okay I had an accurate enough mental okay I had an accurate enough mental model. If it doesn't come true then it's model. If it doesn't come true then it's model. If it doesn't come true then it's like okay there was a breakdown in my like okay there was a breakdown in my like okay there was a breakdown in my mental model. Let me go find this out. mental model. Let me go find this out. mental model. Let me go find this out. So one of the ways that that happened to So one of the ways that that happened to So one of the ways that that happened to me recently and it was incredibly um I me recently and it was incredibly um I me recently and it was incredibly um I think it's going to be incredibly think it's going to be incredibly think it's going to be incredibly useful. Um what it forced me to update useful. Um what it forced me to update useful. Um what it forced me to update my mental model was oil never hit $200 a my mental model was oil never hit $200 a my mental model was oil never hit $200 a barrel. Why? like we ended up when when barrel. Why? like we ended up when when barrel. Why? like we ended up when when we had theou and it seemed like okay we had theou and it seemed like okay we had theou and it seemed like okay maybe we really are going to reach peace maybe we really are going to reach peace maybe we really are going to reach peace it was like oh that's why and then we it was like oh that's why and then we it was like oh that's why and then we went back to war like as aggressive in went back to war like as aggressive in went back to war like as aggressive in as in the beginning and prices didn't go as in the beginning and prices didn't go as in the beginning and prices didn't go back up as much so it was like wait what back up as much so it was like wait what back up as much so it was like wait what and then that got me looking at oil and then that got me looking at oil and then that got me looking at oil futures the longtail all of that and futures the longtail all of that and futures the longtail all of that and realizing whoa the global economy may be realizing whoa the global economy may be realizing whoa the global economy may be in a much worse position than I thought in a much worse position than I thought in a much worse position than I thought and so that was mental model here's my and so that was mental model here's my and so that was mental model here's my expectation uhoh expectation did not expectation uhoh expectation did not expectation uhoh expectation did not come true I'm not wasting time defending come true I'm not wasting time defending come true I'm not wasting time defending myself and saying, "Oh, I got something myself and saying, "Oh, I got something myself and saying, "Oh, I got something wrong. No, I didn't. You don't wrong. No, I didn't. You don't wrong. No, I didn't. You don't understand. It's this." Which is what understand. It's this." Which is what understand. It's this." Which is what every [ __ ] [ __ ] in the world every [ __ ] [ __ ] in the world every [ __ ] [ __ ] in the world essentially does. I have the same essentially does. I have the same essentially does. I have the same impulse. But you can stop yourself from impulse. But you can stop yourself from impulse. But you can stop yourself from doing it. And just go, "Oh, actually, I doing it. And just go, "Oh, actually, I doing it. And just go, "Oh, actually, I don't need to be right. What I need to don't need to be right. What I need to don't need to be right. What I need to do is find the right answer." So, I do is find the right answer." So, I do is find the right answer." So, I always think it is unwise of people to always think it is unwise of people to always think it is unwise of people to say things like, "I'm not going to take say things like, "I'm not going to take say things like, "I'm not going to take a position on this." I think it's far a position on this." I think it's far a position on this." I think it's far better to say, "Okay, listen. Here's my better to say, "Okay, listen. Here's my better to say, "Okay, listen. Here's my position right now, but I'm like way at position right now, but I'm like way at position right now, but I'm like way at the headline level." or Jesus, I've only the headline level." or Jesus, I've only the headline level." or Jesus, I've only done a couple of hours of research on done a couple of hours of research on done a couple of hours of research on this. There's no way that I have this this. There's no way that I have this this. There's no way that I have this map correctly, but I'm going to say out map correctly, but I'm going to say out map correctly, but I'm going to say out loud, this is where I think this is loud, this is where I think this is loud, this is where I think this is going so that I can see if I'm thinking going so that I can see if I'm thinking going so that I can see if I'm thinking about this right or not. Uh, but people about this right or not. Uh, but people about this right or not. Uh, but people don't do that. They either stay silent don't do that. They either stay silent don't do that. They either stay silent quietly building a mental model and just quietly building a mental model and just quietly building a mental model and just not wanting to say out loud because they not wanting to say out loud because they not wanting to say out loud because they don't want to be held accountable. Uh, don't want to be held accountable. Uh, don't want to be held accountable. Uh, or because they say their position out or because they say their position out or because they say their position out loud, then they feel they have to defend loud, then they feel they have to defend loud, then they feel they have to defend it until the end of time, which is super it until the end of time, which is super it until the end of time, which is super [ __ ] stupid.

Um and then for another a quick >> Yeah. Um and then for another a quick >> Yeah. Um and then for another a quick hit, uh Trump has another round of hit, uh Trump has another round of hit, uh Trump has another round of tariffs, 100% um tariffs on generic tariffs, 100% um tariffs on generic tariffs, 100% um tariffs on generic drugs drugs drugs >> after two years. >> after two years. >> after two years. >> After 2 years, starts off at 0%.

The goal of the tariff is to bring back goal of the tariff is to bring back goal of the tariff is to bring back manufacturing locally. I know this is a manufacturing locally. I know this is a manufacturing locally. I know this is a a drum that you beat a lot. So I wanted a drum that you beat a lot. So I wanted a drum that you beat a lot. So I wanted to kind of to kind of to kind of >> kind of help you set the stage for this. >> kind of help you set the stage for this. >> kind of help you set the stage for this.

But then at two money in the front end. But then at two money in the front end. But then at two years the price being the price hiking years the price being the price hiking years the price being the price hiking up could hurt. up could hurt. up could hurt. >> Yeah, I think this is actually really >> Yeah, I think this is actually really >> Yeah, I think this is actually really interesting. So what you have going on interesting. So what you have going on interesting. So what you have going on is Trump is taking a um Hamiltonian is Trump is taking a um Hamiltonian is Trump is taking a um Hamiltonian approach. So Hamilton looked at the approach. So Hamilton looked at the approach. So Hamilton looked at the world and said, "Okay, listen. For world and said, "Okay, listen. For world and said, "Okay, listen. For America to become the greatest country America to become the greatest country America to become the greatest country ever because remember when they started, ever because remember when they started, ever because remember when they started, bro, we we were not big on the global bro, we we were not big on the global bro, we we were not big on the global stage at all." And so we had to find a stage at all." And so we had to find a stage at all." And so we had to find a way to get there. And Hamilton being as way to get there. And Hamilton being as way to get there. And Hamilton being as brilliant as he was realized there are brilliant as he was realized there are brilliant as he was realized there are two things you need to do. One, you have two things you need to do. One, you have two things you need to do. One, you have to be protective. So you're going to to be protective. So you're going to to be protective. So you're going to have to block people from bringing their have to block people from bringing their have to block people from bringing their goods into your country. And so you're goods into your country. And so you're goods into your country. And so you're going to do that with a tariff. Uh and going to do that with a tariff. Uh and going to do that with a tariff. Uh and then the second thing, and by the way, then the second thing, and by the way, then the second thing, and by the way, if people want to fight about who pays a if people want to fight about who pays a if people want to fight about who pays a tariff, we can happily do that. But tariff, we can happily do that. But tariff, we can happily do that. But nonetheless, its function is it does nonetheless, its function is it does nonetheless, its function is it does stop things from coming into your stop things from coming into your stop things from coming into your country. And then the second thing is country. And then the second thing is country. And then the second thing is using subsidies to direct industry. So using subsidies to direct industry. So using subsidies to direct industry. So uh what's fascinating is Hamilton and uh what's fascinating is Hamilton and uh what's fascinating is Hamilton and Xihinping sound very familiar. Xihinping sound very familiar. Xihinping sound very familiar. >> So those two like there's there's a lot >> So those two like there's there's a lot >> So those two like there's there's a lot of similarity. Now Hamilton had massive of similarity. Now Hamilton had massive of similarity. Now Hamilton had massive fears about authoritarian power. So he fears about authoritarian power. So he fears about authoritarian power. So he was a big proponent of checks and was a big proponent of checks and was a big proponent of checks and balances. But it's very very interesting balances. But it's very very interesting balances. But it's very very interesting that one of the things that has made that one of the things that has made that one of the things that has made China as successful as it is is they China as successful as it is is they China as successful as it is is they direct industry. And so they go, "Okay, direct industry. And so they go, "Okay, direct industry. And so they go, "Okay, we're still going to make you guys we're still going to make you guys we're still going to make you guys compete because we can't lose the price compete because we can't lose the price compete because we can't lose the price signal. However, we're going to in a signal. However, we're going to in a signal. However, we're going to in a very I'm early in this research, but I very I'm early in this research, but I very I'm early in this research, but I think that China may be the perfect think that China may be the perfect think that China may be the perfect example of a fascistic government example of a fascistic government example of a fascistic government >> in that everything >> in that everything >> in that everything >> when you start looking, again, I'm >> when you start looking, again, I'm >> when you start looking, again, I'm early, but when you start looking at early, but when you start looking at early, but when you start looking at what fascism really is, like going back what fascism really is, like going back what fascism really is, like going back to Italy and the definitions that they to Italy and the definitions that they to Italy and the definitions that they were putting forward uh for like were putting forward uh for like were putting forward uh for like totalitarianism and what it all meant is totalitarianism and what it all meant is totalitarianism and what it all meant is that you've got the um what they called that you've got the um what they called that you've got the um what they called the corporatization the corporatization the corporatization of the nation. What they weren't, it's a of the nation. What they weren't, it's a of the nation. What they weren't, it's a small part of it, but people take the small part of it, but people take the small part of it, but people take the read that oh, this just means that like read that oh, this just means that like read that oh, this just means that like the Nazis, it's like industry and the the Nazis, it's like industry and the the Nazis, it's like industry and the government work together. Yes, it's a government work together. Yes, it's a government work together. Yes, it's a part of it, but it's ultimately a small part of it, but it's ultimately a small part of it, but it's ultimately a small part. What's really going on is you're part. What's really going on is you're part. What's really going on is you're using the word um corporation to mean using the word um corporation to mean using the word um corporation to mean corpus body like the old Latin root or corpus body like the old Latin root or corpus body like the old Latin root or Greek root I don't know one of the two Greek root I don't know one of the two Greek root I don't know one of the two probably Latin root of the um word probably Latin root of the um word probably Latin root of the um word getting at everything the entire nation getting at everything the entire nation getting at everything the entire nation functions as one body and so it's a very functions as one body and so it's a very functions as one body and so it's a very collectivist mindset so it's like okay collectivist mindset so it's like okay collectivist mindset so it's like okay hey cool you can run your car company hey cool you can run your car company hey cool you can run your car company BYD whatever but you're going to do what BYD whatever but you're going to do what BYD whatever but you're going to do what we tell you to do and so we might we tell you to do and so we might we tell you to do and so we might allocate funds to you uh because we allocate funds to you uh because we allocate funds to you uh because we think that there is something very think that there is something very think that there is something very specific that needs to happen uh for the specific that needs to happen uh for the specific that needs to happen uh for the corpus to thrive. But whether it's you, corpus to thrive. But whether it's you, corpus to thrive. But whether it's you, whether it's another car company, whether it's another car company, whether it's another car company, whatever, it doesn't matter. You guys whatever, it doesn't matter. You guys whatever, it doesn't matter. You guys have to compete amongst each other have to compete amongst each other have to compete amongst each other because we've learned our lesson from because we've learned our lesson from because we've learned our lesson from Mao despite what [ __ ] uh Hassan [ __ ] Mao despite what [ __ ] uh Hassan [ __ ] Mao despite what [ __ ] uh Hassan [ __ ] is going to tell you. We learned our is going to tell you. We learned our is going to tell you. We learned our lesson from Mao. We're never going to lesson from Mao. We're never going to lesson from Mao. We're never going to repeat that. But we do want to be able repeat that. But we do want to be able repeat that. But we do want to be able to get our entire nation functioning as to get our entire nation functioning as to get our entire nation functioning as one body. And so when you look at one body. And so when you look at one body. And so when you look at Hamilton through that lens, it is the Hamilton through that lens, it is the Hamilton through that lens, it is the it's a I'm terrified of top- down it's a I'm terrified of top- down it's a I'm terrified of top- down authoritarian control. So we're not authoritarian control. So we're not authoritarian control. So we're not going to do that. So it isn't fascism. going to do that. So it isn't fascism. going to do that. So it isn't fascism. But what we are going to do is recognize But what we are going to do is recognize But what we are going to do is recognize that if we want to become a superpower, that if we want to become a superpower, that if we want to become a superpower, we have to have the right vision for the we have to have the right vision for the we have to have the right vision for the future, which in America's case was to future, which in America's case was to future, which in America's case was to become an industrial powerhouse. We have become an industrial powerhouse. We have become an industrial powerhouse. We have to have the right vision of the future. to have the right vision of the future. to have the right vision of the future. we've got to block people that would we've got to block people that would we've got to block people that would hollow out our industry by shipping us hollow out our industry by shipping us hollow out our industry by shipping us things that are cheaper than we can make things that are cheaper than we can make things that are cheaper than we can make it ourselves. So, we're going to stop it ourselves. So, we're going to stop it ourselves. So, we're going to stop that from happening. We're going to say that from happening. We're going to say that from happening. We're going to say you have to build here and then we're you have to build here and then we're you have to build here and then we're going to create incentive structures to going to create incentive structures to going to create incentive structures to make sure that people actually do that. make sure that people actually do that. make sure that people actually do that. >> And so, between blocking and >> And so, between blocking and >> And so, between blocking and incentivizing, if you have the right incentivizing, if you have the right incentivizing, if you have the right vision of the future, you build America vision of the future, you build America vision of the future, you build America or in China's case, you build China. And or in China's case, you build China. And or in China's case, you build China. And it is extraordinary. And so it's it is extraordinary. And so it's it is extraordinary. And so it's interesting even though I think interesting even though I think interesting even though I think everybody probably rightly trusts Trump everybody probably rightly trusts Trump everybody probably rightly trusts Trump a lot less than they might be uh willing a lot less than they might be uh willing a lot less than they might be uh willing to trust Hamilton. to trust Hamilton. to trust Hamilton. But nonetheless, it is a return to that But nonetheless, it is a return to that But nonetheless, it is a return to that like, oh, we the only way for America to like, oh, we the only way for America to like, oh, we the only way for America to not become the British Empire and not become the British Empire and not become the British Empire and succumb to China is to do what Trump is succumb to China is to do what Trump is succumb to China is to do what Trump is putting forward, which is to go back to putting forward, which is to go back to putting forward, which is to go back to a Hamilton uh Hamiltonian protect uh and a Hamilton uh Hamiltonian protect uh and a Hamilton uh Hamiltonian protect uh and incentivize incentivize incentivize manufacturing here in the US. And so manufacturing here in the US. And so manufacturing here in the US. And so Hamilton's vision rode on the back of a Hamilton's vision rode on the back of a Hamilton's vision rode on the back of a really strong, quite brilliant idea, really strong, quite brilliant idea, really strong, quite brilliant idea, which is if you don't control your own which is if you don't control your own which is if you don't control your own manufacturing, you don't control your manufacturing, you don't control your manufacturing, you don't control your destiny. And so that's where we're at. destiny. And so that's where we're at. destiny. And so that's where we're at. We've completely hollowed out America We've completely hollowed out America We've completely hollowed out America and uh America's manufacturing. And so and uh America's manufacturing. And so and uh America's manufacturing. And so we just can't do it. We have got to we just can't do it. We have got to we just can't do it. We have got to bring this stuff back. And anything that bring this stuff back. And anything that bring this stuff back. And anything that we deem to be important to national we deem to be important to national we deem to be important to national security, we've got to be making that security, we've got to be making that security, we've got to be making that here in the US. And right now, we here in the US. And right now, we here in the US. And right now, we basically make nothing in the US basically make nothing in the US basically make nothing in the US anymore. anymore. anymore. >> It's a very good point.

Yes, we do. First up from Marushia Dark 316. CCP's oil up from Marushia Dark 316. CCP's oil up from Marushia Dark 316. CCP's oil demand decline could be tied to them demand decline could be tied to them demand decline could be tied to them hiding true population figures. Massive hiding true population figures.

Uh, and have not talked about in months. Uh, and have not talked about in months. Uh, and that's really powerful. So, there was that's really powerful. So, there was that's really powerful. So, there was somebody that came out with something somebody that came out with something somebody that came out with something that said that their actual population that said that their actual population that said that their actual population could be off by hundreds of millions. could be off by hundreds of millions. could be off by hundreds of millions. And if that's true and they're say And if that's true and they're say And if that's true and they're say closer to a billion instead of 1.4 closer to a billion instead of 1.4 closer to a billion instead of 1.4 billion, then it's like things would be billion, then it's like things would be billion, then it's like things would be very very different in China than we very very different in China than we very very different in China than we think. I I haven't been able to verify think. I I haven't been able to verify think. I I haven't been able to verify that, so I don't know that that's true. that, so I don't know that that's true. that, so I don't know that that's true. But it is a very interesting read on if But it is a very interesting read on if But it is a very interesting read on if they are actually lying dramatically they are actually lying dramatically they are actually lying dramatically about their um population that would for about their um population that would for about their um population that would for sure explain some of the things we see sure explain some of the things we see sure explain some of the things we see like the decline in oil. Now how long like the decline in oil. Now how long like the decline in oil. Now how long that's been going on that would be that's been going on that would be that's been going on that would be measured in decades. Um so it' be maybe measured in decades. Um so it' be maybe measured in decades. Um so it' be maybe a little bit unexpected that we just see a little bit unexpected that we just see a little bit unexpected that we just see it now but anyway it almost certainly it now but anyway it almost certainly it now but anyway it almost certainly plays a factor for sure. plays a factor for sure. plays a factor for sure. >> Could we save let's save his second one >> Could we save let's save his second one >> Could we save let's save his second one to lead off our next topic. to lead off our next topic. to lead off our next topic. >> Gotcha. Uh Cypste Steel says thanks for >> Gotcha. Uh Cypste Steel says thanks for >> Gotcha.

Trump's teaching us to dig for truth. Trump's teaching us to dig for truth. Trump's Thursday address said voting machines Thursday address said voting machines Thursday address said voting machines can't be trusted but the compromised can't be trusted but the compromised can't be trusted but the compromised data was largely public. Is he staging a data was largely public. Is he staging a data was largely public. Is he staging a midterm emergency? midterm emergency? midterm emergency? >> Yes. >> Yes. >> Yes. >> Yeah. So the I am a huge proponent that >> Yeah. So the I am a huge proponent that >> Yeah. So the I am a huge proponent that we have created the conditions in which we have created the conditions in which we have created the conditions in which uh there is no election integrity and so uh there is no election integrity and so uh there is no election integrity and so now it's um is there actually mass scale now it's um is there actually mass scale now it's um is there actually mass scale voter fraud? I don't know yet. But have voter fraud? I don't know yet. But have voter fraud? I don't know yet. But have we created the um possibility for we created the um possibility for we created the um possibility for illegal aliens or even just non-citizens illegal aliens or even just non-citizens illegal aliens or even just non-citizens to vote? Yes, we have. Should we to vote? Yes, we have. Should we to vote? Yes, we have. Should we immediately correct that? Yes, we immediately correct that? Yes, we immediately correct that? Yes, we should. Um so, we'll see in the fullness should. Um so, we'll see in the fullness should. Um so, we'll see in the fullness of time how much fraud actually took of time how much fraud actually took of time how much fraud actually took place, but we went from there's no place, but we went from there's no place, but we went from there's no fraud. This isn't happening at all. Uh fraud. This isn't happening at all. Uh fraud. This isn't happening at all. Uh to okay, well, there's certainly the to okay, well, there's certainly the to okay, well, there's certainly the conditions for fraud to actually yes, conditions for fraud to actually yes, conditions for fraud to actually yes, there is fraud and there's a bunch of there is fraud and there's a bunch of there is fraud and there's a bunch of it. Um, and so there's a guy right now it. Um, and so there's a guy right now it. Um, and so there's a guy right now that's on trial in California. He had, I that's on trial in California. He had, I that's on trial in California. He had, I think, 71 names and 40 ballots already think, 71 names and 40 ballots already think, 71 names and 40 ballots already filled out in his house. So, he was filled out in his house. So, he was filled out in his house. So, he was obviously doing it and using mail and obviously doing it and using mail and obviously doing it and using mail and ballots as a way to get those in. Uh, ballots as a way to get those in. Uh, ballots as a way to get those in. Uh, you have what New Jersey just disclosed, you have what New Jersey just disclosed, you have what New Jersey just disclosed, which is 6,600 which is 6,600 which is 6,600 um, non US citizens that were um, non US citizens that were um, non US citizens that were accidentally registered to vote, and I accidentally registered to vote, and I accidentally registered to vote, and I think at least 400 of them actually did think at least 400 of them actually did think at least 400 of them actually did vote. Uh, now Trump is saying that vote. Uh, now Trump is saying that vote. Uh, now Trump is saying that number is actually over 30,000. We'll number is actually over 30,000. We'll number is actually over 30,000. We'll see. I don't trust anything that any see. I don't trust anything that any see. I don't trust anything that any politician says just off the bat. Uh but politician says just off the bat. Uh but politician says just off the bat. Uh but certainly don't tr trust Trump to say certainly don't tr trust Trump to say certainly don't tr trust Trump to say true numbers, but that's what they're true numbers, but that's what they're true numbers, but that's what they're putting forward. So, we'll see in the putting forward. So, we'll see in the putting forward. So, we'll see in the fullness of time what that ends up fullness of time what that ends up fullness of time what that ends up being. Um but if you guys don't know, on being. Um but if you guys don't know, on being. Um but if you guys don't know, on Tuesday, New Jersey Governor uh Mickey Tuesday, New Jersey Governor uh Mickey Tuesday, New Jersey Governor uh Mickey Sherill, I think is how you say her Sherill, I think is how you say her Sherill, I think is how you say her name, uh confirmed that roughly the name, uh confirmed that roughly the name, uh confirmed that roughly the 6,600 non-citizens were registered to 6,600 non-citizens were registered to 6,600 non-citizens were registered to vote in state. So, at least she came out vote in state. So, at least she came out vote in state. So, at least she came out and admitted it. Uh the cause according and admitted it. Uh the cause according and admitted it. Uh the cause according to her was a software error in the Motor to her was a software error in the Motor to her was a software error in the Motor Vehicles Commission's automatic voter Vehicles Commission's automatic voter Vehicles Commission's automatic voter registry system, but that company has registry system, but that company has registry system, but that company has since clapped back and said, "Bitch, since clapped back and said, "Bitch, since clapped back and said, "Bitch, you're out of your mind." Uh you guys you're out of your mind." Uh you guys you're out of your mind." Uh you guys had to certify that those people were had to certify that those people were had to certify that those people were legit. The system would have said, "Hey, legit. The system would have said, "Hey, legit. The system would have said, "Hey, this person's a non-citizen and you this person's a non-citizen and you this person's a non-citizen and you pushed them through anyway." So we'll pushed them through anyway." So we'll pushed them through anyway." So we'll see if this ends up being another see if this ends up being another see if this ends up being another Dominion thing where uh Dominion ends up Dominion thing where uh Dominion ends up Dominion thing where uh Dominion ends up winning their massive lawsuit. Uh and if winning their massive lawsuit. Uh and if winning their massive lawsuit. Uh and if these guys are like, "Also, politicians these guys are like, "Also, politicians these guys are like, "Also, politicians be lying. Our system is not the be lying. Our system is not the be lying. Our system is not the problem." We'll see. This is going to problem." We'll see. This is going to problem." We'll see. This is going to need to play out in the fullness of need to play out in the fullness of need to play out in the fullness of time, but between June of 2023 and June time, but between June of 2023 and June time, but between June of 2023 and June of 2024, people applying for driver's of 2024, people applying for driver's of 2024, people applying for driver's licenses answered no when asked if they licenses answered no when asked if they licenses answered no when asked if they were US citizen. The system registered were US citizen. The system registered were US citizen. The system registered them anyway. Uh, and so again, the them anyway. Uh, and so again, the them anyway. Uh, and so again, the numbers around 400 that actually voted. numbers around 400 that actually voted. numbers around 400 that actually voted. Uh, they were registered as Democrats, Uh, they were registered as Democrats, Uh, they were registered as Democrats, Republicans, and unaffiliated. So, it's Republicans, and unaffiliated. So, it's Republicans, and unaffiliated. So, it's not like this is a pure Democrat thing. not like this is a pure Democrat thing. not like this is a pure Democrat thing. So, we're going to need to let all of So, we're going to need to let all of So, we're going to need to let all of this play out to find out what's this play out to find out what's this play out to find out what's actually going on. That's why I think actually going on. That's why I think actually going on. That's why I think all of this is best read as we have all of this is best read as we have all of this is best read as we have created a problem for us with a lack of created a problem for us with a lack of created a problem for us with a lack of voter integrity. And I don't trust voter integrity. And I don't trust voter integrity. And I don't trust either side uh to be counting the either side uh to be counting the either side uh to be counting the numbers correctly. So, we are going to numbers correctly. So, we are going to numbers correctly. So, we are going to need to do something. I don't think I've need to do something. I don't think I've need to do something. I don't think I've made a secret of I love people needing made a secret of I love people needing made a secret of I love people needing to prove that they are a citizen. Yes, to prove that they are a citizen. Yes, to prove that they are a citizen. Yes, it's going to be a pain in the ass. Got it's going to be a pain in the ass. Got it's going to be a pain in the ass. Got to do it. Sorry. You can't just be like, to do it. Sorry. You can't just be like, to do it. Sorry. You can't just be like, "Oh, it's too [ __ ] hard." and then "Oh, it's too [ __ ] hard." and then "Oh, it's too [ __ ] hard." and then let anybody and everybody vote, which we let anybody and everybody vote, which we let anybody and everybody vote, which we have certainly created a way for that to have certainly created a way for that to have certainly created a way for that to happen. Um, again, without me needing to happen. Um, again, without me needing to happen. Um, again, without me needing to know how much it has happened, I know know how much it has happened, I know know how much it has happened, I know that there's incentive and I know that that there's incentive and I know that that there's incentive and I know that there's a method. And you put those two there's a method. And you put those two there's a method. And you put those two together and you've got a problem. I together and you've got a problem. I together and you've got a problem. I want to hit on the incentive piece right want to hit on the incentive piece right want to hit on the incentive piece right now because with Trump in office, Biden now because with Trump in office, Biden now because with Trump in office, Biden out, borders closed, um fraud and um out, borders closed, um fraud and um out, borders closed, um fraud and um abuse has been investigated, JD Vance is abuse has been investigated, JD Vance is abuse has been investigated, JD Vance is the frauds are and they're withholding the frauds are and they're withholding the frauds are and they're withholding funds to California and to Minnesota and funds to California and to Minnesota and funds to California and to Minnesota and all these other blue states. That to me all these other blue states. That to me all these other blue states. That to me removes the incentive for illegals to removes the incentive for illegals to removes the incentive for illegals to vote in the country right now. Your vote in the country right now. Your vote in the country right now. Your pitch used to be that pitch used to be that pitch used to be that >> your original pitch was we have an >> your original pitch was we have an >> your original pitch was we have an incentive for illegals to vote because incentive for illegals to vote because incentive for illegals to vote because if they vote for certain people, they if they vote for certain people, they if they vote for certain people, they get more free stuff. get more free stuff. get more free stuff. >> Yeah. I think that that incentive is now >> Yeah. I think that that incentive is now >> Yeah. I think that that incentive is now removed because especially in a midterm removed because especially in a midterm removed because especially in a midterm election, you're not going to get people election, you're not going to get people election, you're not going to get people that are one going to have that flood that are one going to have that flood that are one going to have that flood that's going to give them the free that's going to give them the free that's going to give them the free things. And I'm still a big proponent things. And I'm still a big proponent things. And I'm still a big proponent that Trump is using this as just another that Trump is using this as just another that Trump is using this as just another distraction to make a he's creating a distraction to make a he's creating a distraction to make a he's creating a problem that he himself created and then problem that he himself created and then problem that he himself created and then he's going to solve it when he it's not he's going to solve it when he it's not he's going to solve it when he it's not even a thing.

And so, if it's like the thing that I'm proposing as a way to the thing that I'm proposing as a way to the thing that I'm proposing as a way to shore it up is non-effective, cool. shore it up is non-effective, cool. shore it up is non-effective, cool. Like, I'm very open. I don't need it to Like, I'm very open. I don't need it to Like, I'm very open. I don't need it to be my thing, but like we need a thing to be my thing, but like we need a thing to be my thing, but like we need a thing to prove that people have a right to vote prove that people have a right to vote prove that people have a right to vote because we're seeing all the evidence because we're seeing all the evidence because we're seeing all the evidence even if um for some people like it's even if um for some people like it's even if um for some people like it's sort of sub threshold or whatever. It's sort of sub threshold or whatever. It's sort of sub threshold or whatever. It's like but we see that it's happening and like but we see that it's happening and like but we see that it's happening and there is an incentive and I'll address there is an incentive and I'll address there is an incentive and I'll address that cuz you're saying I think that that cuz you're saying I think that that cuz you're saying I think that incentive has been removed but the incentive has been removed but the incentive has been removed but the reason I don't think that incentive has reason I don't think that incentive has reason I don't think that incentive has been removed is that one still at the been removed is that one still at the been removed is that one still at the state level you have it. So the state state level you have it. So the state state level you have it. So the state may not be getting the funds that they may not be getting the funds that they may not be getting the funds that they were getting before, but the state can were getting before, but the state can were getting before, but the state can still pay for a lot of things. They're still pay for a lot of things. They're still pay for a lot of things. They're just not being reimbursed for it. So just not being reimbursed for it. So just not being reimbursed for it. So it'll be interesting to see how they it'll be interesting to see how they it'll be interesting to see how they handle that. And then two, Trump doing handle that. And then two, Trump doing handle that. And then two, Trump doing something that could still be challenged something that could still be challenged something that could still be challenged by the courts and all that is very by the courts and all that is very by the courts and all that is very different than this has been done different than this has been done different than this has been done nationwide and it's just not happening nationwide and it's just not happening nationwide and it's just not happening anymore. And then also remember that anymore. And then also remember that anymore. And then also remember that part of the reason that the DSA is so part of the reason that the DSA is so part of the reason that the DSA is so gung-ho to get rid of the Senate is the gung-ho to get rid of the Senate is the gung-ho to get rid of the Senate is the Senate is a great equalizer. The Senate Senate is a great equalizer. The Senate Senate is a great equalizer. The Senate says, "I don't care how many people you says, "I don't care how many people you says, "I don't care how many people you have in your state. Every state gets two have in your state. Every state gets two have in your state. Every state gets two senators. Period. End of story." What senators. Period. End of story." What senators. Period. End of story." What that puts a check on is the majority that puts a check on is the majority that puts a check on is the majority tyrannizing the minority, which you tyrannizing the minority, which you tyrannizing the minority, which you want. You want these, from where I'm want. You want these, from where I'm want. You want these, from where I'm sitting, you aggressively want these sitting, you aggressively want these sitting, you aggressively want these checks and balances because the human checks and balances because the human checks and balances because the human propensity to abuse power. And so, by propensity to abuse power. And so, by propensity to abuse power. And so, by creating the sentence saying it doesn't creating the sentence saying it doesn't creating the sentence saying it doesn't matter how many people you have, we have matter how many people you have, we have matter how many people you have, we have a check against that. What you stop is a check against that. What you stop is a check against that. What you stop is the congressional abuses that can be the congressional abuses that can be the congressional abuses that can be done by getting illegal aliens into the done by getting illegal aliens into the done by getting illegal aliens into the country because the way that your census country because the way that your census country because the way that your census works is it doesn't matter if they're a works is it doesn't matter if they're a works is it doesn't matter if they're a citizen or not. It just matters that citizen or not. It just matters that citizen or not. It just matters that they were there at the time the census they were there at the time the census they were there at the time the census was taken and that does control how many was taken and that does control how many was taken and that does control how many congressmen that they have representing congressmen that they have representing congressmen that they have representing them and it's a zero- sum game. So now them and it's a zero- sum game. So now them and it's a zero- sum game. So now there is an incentive for every state to there is an incentive for every state to there is an incentive for every state to get as many people in as possible and get as many people in as possible and get as many people in as possible and then um those states have an incentive then um those states have an incentive then um those states have an incentive to get them to vote in that state for to get them to vote in that state for to get them to vote in that state for them to retain power because they are them to retain power because they are them to retain power because they are likely to vote one way. Now it is likely to vote one way. Now it is likely to vote one way. Now it is definitely a complication for that definitely a complication for that definitely a complication for that strategy if the federal government calls strategy if the federal government calls strategy if the federal government calls [ __ ] and is like I'm not sending you [ __ ] and is like I'm not sending you [ __ ] and is like I'm not sending you any money. Now that needs to be done in any money. Now that needs to be done in any money. Now that needs to be done in accordance with the laws and so I don't accordance with the laws and so I don't accordance with the laws and so I don't know that Trump's doing it in accordance know that Trump's doing it in accordance know that Trump's doing it in accordance with the laws. So, it's very possible with the laws. So, it's very possible with the laws. So, it's very possible that gets struck down by the courts. that gets struck down by the courts. that gets struck down by the courts. We'll see. That's going to have to go We'll see. That's going to have to go We'll see. That's going to have to go through the system. So, on that, I'm through the system. So, on that, I'm through the system.

That doesn't problem with race swapping. That doesn't problem with race swapping. That doesn't freak me out. But um on that one, it's freak me out. But um on that one, it's freak me out. But um on that one, it's like just like if I were going to do a like just like if I were going to do a like just like if I were going to do a remake or you know um Black Panther 4 or remake or you know um Black Panther 4 or remake or you know um Black Panther 4 or whatever, I wouldn't make Tala white. whatever, I wouldn't make Tala white. whatever, I wouldn't make Tala white. Like there's just something maybe I Like there's just something maybe I Like there's just something maybe I introduce a white guy, but I'm not introduce a white guy, but I'm not introduce a white guy, but I'm not making Tala white. There's just certain making Tala white. There's just certain making Tala white. There's just certain things it's like, bro, you got one line things it's like, bro, you got one line things it's like, bro, you got one line about the Greeks. Like let that be about the Greeks. Like let that be about the Greeks. Like let that be delivered by somebody who is actually delivered by somebody who is actually delivered by somebody who is actually Greek. Uh would have just been way Greek. Uh would have just been way Greek. Uh would have just been way smarter from that perspective of not smarter from that perspective of not smarter from that perspective of not creating problems for himself. Um but creating problems for himself. Um but creating problems for himself. Um but the rest of it, I just I can't stress the rest of it, I just I can't stress the rest of it, I just I can't stress enough. It is a non-fucking entity in enough. It is a non-fucking entity in enough. It is a non-fucking entity in the movie. It doesn't you don't think the movie. It doesn't you don't think the movie. It doesn't you don't think about it at all when you're in the about it at all when you're in the about it at all when you're in the movie. It It is just not I went into it movie. It It is just not I went into it movie. It It is just not I went into it like I am here because I feel like I like I am here because I feel like I like I am here because I feel like I need to comment on the culture. I did need to comment on the culture. I did need to comment on the culture. I did not expect to get caught up in holy not expect to get caught up in holy not expect to get caught up in holy [ __ ] this is such a good movie that I'm [ __ ] this is such a good movie that I'm [ __ ] this is such a good movie that I'm finding myself called back to the cinema finding myself called back to the cinema finding myself called back to the cinema like a [ __ ] church. So like that like a [ __ ] church. So like that like a [ __ ] church. So like that whole thing I'm there to find out if whole thing I'm there to find out if whole thing I'm there to find out if this thing is woke and it felt so like this thing is woke and it felt so like this thing is woke and it felt so like >> it was deflating because there just >> it was deflating because there just >> it was deflating because there just wasn't anything to grab on to.

So anyway, all the landmines that people So anyway, all the landmines that people So anyway, all the landmines that people thought he was going to step on, they're thought he was going to step on, they're thought he was going to step on, they're just non-existent. Helen of Troy even just non-existent. Helen of Troy even just non-existent. Helen of Troy even isn't like a big beat in the movie. It's isn't like a big beat in the movie. It's isn't like a big beat in the movie. It's like uh so like uh so like uh so >> and even how he showed her beauty in >> and even how he showed her beauty in >> and even how he showed her beauty in that way like it was still that way like it was still that way like it was still >> also by the way it was um it was a movie >> also by the way it was um it was a movie >> also by the way it was um it was a movie about something else entirely and they about something else entirely and they about something else entirely and they they so deliver on the other thing the they so deliver on the other thing the they so deliver on the other thing the bigger themes of the movie you're just bigger themes of the movie you're just bigger themes of the movie you're just not going to care about the other stuff. not going to care about the other stuff. not going to care about the other stuff. So anyway, I have a whole thesis. I So anyway, I have a whole thesis. I So anyway, I have a whole thesis. I haven't seen the critical drinker haven't seen the critical drinker haven't seen the critical drinker response. I really resonate with his um response. I really resonate with his um response. I really resonate with his um read on a lot of movies. I will be very read on a lot of movies. I will be very read on a lot of movies. I will be very interested to see if he succumbs because interested to see if he succumbs because interested to see if he succumbs because what I think is happening in all the um what I think is happening in all the um what I think is happening in all the um internet push back on it went like this. internet push back on it went like this. internet push back on it went like this. These guys were told that they were These guys were told that they were These guys were told that they were being psycho radicals for calling out being psycho radicals for calling out being psycho radicals for calling out how woke movies have become in video how woke movies have become in video how woke movies have become in video games, which is absolutely true. It was games, which is absolutely true. It was games, which is absolutely true. It was dire. We all live through like 15 years dire. We all live through like 15 years dire. We all live through like 15 years of trash in the name of like putting of trash in the name of like putting of trash in the name of like putting forward a message in film. So I it was forward a message in film. So I it was forward a message in film. So I it was unreasonable the way the people unreasonable the way the people unreasonable the way the people responded to them. But these guys built responded to them. But these guys built responded to them. But these guys built an audience around being anti-woke. Then an audience around being anti-woke. Then an audience around being anti-woke. Then the trailer from Nolan comes out that the trailer from Nolan comes out that the trailer from Nolan comes out that has these nods to wokeism and they lose has these nods to wokeism and they lose has these nods to wokeism and they lose their [ __ ] and the broader world of their [ __ ] and the broader world of their [ __ ] and the broader world of people that feel like they've been people that feel like they've been people that feel like they've been ignored and gaslit, they go [ __ ] ignored and gaslit, they go [ __ ] ignored and gaslit, they go [ __ ] ballistic. just absolutely ratioing to ballistic. just absolutely ratioing to ballistic. just absolutely ratioing to death the trailers. And so these guys death the trailers. And so these guys death the trailers. And so these guys now are like, "Look, [ __ ] Nolan's now are like, "Look, [ __ ] Nolan's now are like, "Look, [ __ ] Nolan's falling off. I can't believe he did falling off. I can't believe he did falling off. I can't believe he did this." And so they got so much like this." And so they got so much like this." And so they got so much like positive affirmations from their positive affirmations from their positive affirmations from their takedowns of the trailers that I think takedowns of the trailers that I think takedowns of the trailers that I think they were a bit trapped. They have an they were a bit trapped. They have an they were a bit trapped. They have an audience that demands anti-woke audience that demands anti-woke audience that demands anti-woke rhetoric. Then they put out rhetoric rhetoric. Then they put out rhetoric rhetoric. Then they put out rhetoric like, "Yo, look at this trailer." They like, "Yo, look at this trailer." They like, "Yo, look at this trailer." They thought, "Oh my god, we're about to hit thought, "Oh my god, we're about to hit thought, "Oh my god, we're about to hit the motherload of like even [ __ ] the motherload of like even [ __ ] the motherload of like even [ __ ] Nolan has succumbed to all this woke Nolan has succumbed to all this woke Nolan has succumbed to all this woke bullshit." And when they went and saw bullshit." And when they went and saw bullshit." And when they went and saw the movie, they had to dislike it. And the movie, they had to dislike it. And the movie, they had to dislike it. And so you got these early reviews where so you got these early reviews where so you got these early reviews where people literally were like, I just people literally were like, I just people literally were like, I just walked out. I've seen the movie. I am walked out. I've seen the movie. I am walked out. I've seen the movie. I am not now responding to headlines or not now responding to headlines or not now responding to headlines or trailers. I have seen the movie and it trailers. I have seen the movie and it trailers. I have seen the movie and it was lost and meandering. What the [ __ ] was lost and meandering. What the [ __ ] was lost and meandering. What the [ __ ] Hold the phone. This thing My mic just Hold the phone. This thing My mic just Hold the phone. This thing My mic just did something weird. Boys, be careful. did something weird. Boys, be careful. did something weird. Boys, be careful. Um, this whole thing is like this movie Um, this whole thing is like this movie Um, this whole thing is like this movie will be studied for how seamlessly they will be studied for how seamlessly they will be studied for how seamlessly they jump in time, how well they handle that. jump in time, how well they handle that. jump in time, how well they handle that. I was like, "Wo, I was like, "Wo, I was like, "Wo, >> bro." So, I was like, "That [ __ ] was >> bro." So, I was like, "That [ __ ] was >> bro." So, I was like, "That [ __ ] was done so well. This movie was 3 hours done so well. This movie was 3 hours done so well. This movie was 3 hours long and it felt like two maybe." Like, long and it felt like two maybe." Like, long and it felt like two maybe." Like, I was never bored. I was never looking I was never bored. I was never looking I was never bored. I was never looking at my watch. I cannot believe how many at my watch. I cannot believe how many at my watch. I cannot believe how many beats they covered, how seamlessly he beats they covered, how seamlessly he beats they covered, how seamlessly he weaves these things together. Nolan weaves these things together. Nolan weaves these things together. Nolan Nolan for me [ __ ] up Tenant. I was Nolan for me [ __ ] up Tenant. I was Nolan for me [ __ ] up Tenant. I was just like, "What what happened there?" just like, "What what happened there?" just like, "What what happened there?" So, I'm not like a dick writer for So, I'm not like a dick writer for So, I'm not like a dick writer for Nolan, even though I think he is one of Nolan, even though I think he is one of Nolan, even though I think he is one of the greats in cinema right now, but when the greats in cinema right now, but when the greats in cinema right now, but when he [ __ ] up, I'm just like, Tenant was he [ __ ] up, I'm just like, Tenant was he [ __ ] up, I'm just like, Tenant was unfortunate. Um, but he handled this so unfortunate. Um, but he handled this so unfortunate. Um, but he handled this so [ __ ] well. So anyway, to me, this was [ __ ] well. So anyway, to me, this was [ __ ] well. So anyway, to me, this was Nolan at the peak of his powers. He Nolan at the peak of his powers. He Nolan at the peak of his powers. He messes with time even more deafly than messes with time even more deafly than messes with time even more deafly than he did in Momento, which was is truly he did in Momento, which was is truly he did in Momento, which was is truly one of the greats of cinema. Uh, so one of the greats of cinema. Uh, so one of the greats of cinema. Uh, so anyway, I hope people, even if you are anyway, I hope people, even if you are anyway, I hope people, even if you are as anti-woke as I am, that you will go as anti-woke as I am, that you will go as anti-woke as I am, that you will go give this movie a try because holy [ __ ] give this movie a try because holy [ __ ] give this movie a try because holy [ __ ] it is phenomenal and asks a very deep it is phenomenal and asks a very deep it is phenomenal and asks a very deep fundamental question about what it means fundamental question about what it means fundamental question about what it means to be a good person. to be a good person. to be a good person.

So it was just it's crazy. didn't. So it was just it's crazy. >> Um Okay. Um we're back. Um let's go >> Um Okay. Um we're back. Um let's go >> Um Okay. Um we're back. Um let's go culture cuz a lot of friends of the show culture cuz a lot of friends of the show culture cuz a lot of friends of the show have done very interesting things and I have done very interesting things and I have done very interesting things and I would like to bring it up and kind of would like to bring it up and kind of would like to bring it up and kind of talk about it. Um the first thing low talk about it. Um the first thing low talk about it. Um the first thing low key I need to call Brian Johnson just key I need to call Brian Johnson just key I need to call Brian Johnson just because he looks so different and all because he looks so different and all because he looks so different and all his sideby-side pictures started on like his sideby-side pictures started on like his sideby-side pictures started on like Impact Theory. Like we are like his lips Impact Theory. Like we are like his lips Impact Theory. Like we are like his lips test. I know. So, we definitely need to test. I know. So, we definitely need to test. I know. So, we definitely need to bring him back when his clone baby gets bring him back when his clone baby gets bring him back when his clone baby gets alive. But, alive. But, alive. But, >> yeah, he just >> yeah, he just >> yeah, he just >> This one is really fascinating. >> This one is really fascinating. >> This one is really fascinating. [laughter] So, um he put out a post. It [laughter] So, um he put out a post. It [laughter] So, um he put out a post. It was maximized for clicks as one would was maximized for clicks as one would was maximized for clicks as one would expect. It stars. [clears throat] I just expect. It stars. [clears throat] I just expect. It stars. [clears throat] I just cloned myself as a newborn. Um so, the cloned myself as a newborn. Um so, the cloned myself as a newborn. Um so, the real punchline is that basically he's real punchline is that basically he's real punchline is that basically he's cloning his cells and it is talk about cloning his cells and it is talk about cloning his cells and it is talk about AI and one of the breakthroughs and what AI and one of the breakthroughs and what AI and one of the breakthroughs and what we're going to be able to do with cells. we're going to be able to do with cells. we're going to be able to do with cells. Now, this is all writing on the back of Now, this is all writing on the back of Now, this is all writing on the back of something called um Yaka Nama factors. something called um Yaka Nama factors. something called um Yaka Nama factors. Namayaka factors. [ __ ] I think he's got Namayaka factors. [ __ ] I think he's got Namayaka factors. [ __ ] I think he's got it there. I always blank on this. It's it there. I always blank on this. It's it there. I always blank on this. It's It's a Japanese guy's name. It's a It's a Japanese guy's name. It's a It's a Japanese guy's name. It's a scientist who figured out what are the scientist who figured out what are the scientist who figured out what are the Yamanaka factors. I'm almost certain Yamanaka factors. I'm almost certain Yamanaka factors. I'm almost certain that's true. that's true. that's true. >> Oh, yeah. Here it is. Yamaka. >> Oh, yeah. Here it is. Yamaka. >> Oh, yeah. Here it is. Yamaka. >> Yes. Yamanaka. All right. So, uh, >> Yes. Yamanaka. All right. So, uh, >> Yes. Yamanaka. All right. So, uh, Yamanaka factors are the thing that Yamanaka factors are the thing that Yamanaka factors are the thing that allow your cells to, um, basically allow your cells to, um, basically allow your cells to, um, basically become pur potent so that they can become pur potent so that they can become pur potent so that they can become anything again. So, what is become anything again. So, what is become anything again. So, what is aging? Aging is this problem of your aging? Aging is this problem of your aging? Aging is this problem of your cells over time get the wrong cells over time get the wrong cells over time get the wrong methylation markers. Okay. I was methylation markers. Okay. I was methylation markers. Okay. I was explaining this to my wife. She seemed explaining this to my wife. She seemed explaining this to my wife. She seemed interested. I'm going to run you guys interested. I'm going to run you guys interested. I'm going to run you guys through it. You'll let me know if chat's through it. You'll let me know if chat's through it. You'll let me know if chat's like bored out of their mind. Uh, but a like bored out of their mind. Uh, but a like bored out of their mind. Uh, but a speedrun of the way that aging works speedrun of the way that aging works speedrun of the way that aging works goes like this. Um, your DNA, the full goes like this. Um, your DNA, the full goes like this. Um, your DNA, the full strand of everything you will ever need strand of everything you will ever need strand of everything you will ever need to produce in your body, eye cells, to produce in your body, eye cells, to produce in your body, eye cells, heart cells, running processes, all of heart cells, running processes, all of heart cells, running processes, all of it is in every single cell. The problem it is in every single cell. The problem it is in every single cell. The problem is each cell only needs like a tiny is each cell only needs like a tiny is each cell only needs like a tiny fraction of that. And so the um cells fraction of that. And so the um cells fraction of that. And so the um cells have this incredible method of you wind have this incredible method of you wind have this incredible method of you wind up the DNA in such a way that only the up the DNA in such a way that only the up the DNA in such a way that only the DNA part that codes for that cell is DNA part that codes for that cell is DNA part that codes for that cell is exposed. So everything else is wrapped exposed. So everything else is wrapped exposed. So everything else is wrapped up. And so you know what a cell is by up. And so you know what a cell is by up. And so you know what a cell is by which part sticks out. And you put which part sticks out. And you put which part sticks out. And you put little markers on the part that sticks little markers on the part that sticks little markers on the part that sticks out so that you keep it uh the way it out so that you keep it uh the way it out so that you keep it uh the way it is. Think of them like bookmarks. And is. Think of them like bookmarks. And is. Think of them like bookmarks. And that's called methylation. And so you go that's called methylation. And so you go that's called methylation. And so you go in and you tag the cells with these in and you tag the cells with these in and you tag the cells with these methylation markers and the little methylation markers and the little methylation markers and the little things that crawl over the DNA that read things that crawl over the DNA that read things that crawl over the DNA that read it and kick off the different proteins it and kick off the different proteins it and kick off the different proteins and things that it needs to make it and things that it needs to make it and things that it needs to make it stops reading when it hits the right stops reading when it hits the right stops reading when it hits the right methylation marker and all that stuff. methylation marker and all that stuff. methylation marker and all that stuff. Okay. When you age that methylation, Okay. When you age that methylation, Okay. When you age that methylation, those markers get put in the wrong place those markers get put in the wrong place those markers get put in the wrong place just because you're copying the cell just because you're copying the cell just because you're copying the cell over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over. These are actually physical over. These are actually physical over. These are actually physical processes. So the little thing runs processes. So the little thing runs processes. So the little thing runs around, it reads it and says, "This is around, it reads it and says, "This is around, it reads it and says, "This is what I am." And it puts the markers back what I am." And it puts the markers back what I am." And it puts the markers back in the right place. Okay? So as you age, in the right place. Okay? So as you age, in the right place. Okay? So as you age, those markers get put in the wrong those markers get put in the wrong those markers get put in the wrong place. The DNA begins to unspool. And so place. The DNA begins to unspool. And so place. The DNA begins to unspool. And so now it's like, am I a heart cell or an now it's like, am I a heart cell or an now it's like, am I a heart cell or an eye cell? And so that heart cell becomes eye cell? And so that heart cell becomes eye cell? And so that heart cell becomes a little less effective at its job a little less effective at its job a little less effective at its job because it's mostly still a heart cell, because it's mostly still a heart cell, because it's mostly still a heart cell, but it's becoming something else a but it's becoming something else a but it's becoming something else a little bit as well. And so if you could little bit as well. And so if you could little bit as well. And so if you could perfectly methylate those again, get perfectly methylate those again, get perfectly methylate those again, get them tightened. So only the heart cell them tightened. So only the heart cell them tightened. So only the heart cell is sticking out, your heart cell is is sticking out, your heart cell is is sticking out, your heart cell is going to literally get younger. And so going to literally get younger. And so going to literally get younger. And so this is what Brian Johnson is talking this is what Brian Johnson is talking this is what Brian Johnson is talking about is he's saying the future is going about is he's saying the future is going about is he's saying the future is going to be where all of us take our cells at to be where all of us take our cells at to be where all of us take our cells at the earliest age possible because you're the earliest age possible because you're the earliest age possible because you're accumulating all of this methylation accumulating all of this methylation accumulating all of this methylation mismarking and so the cells are becoming mismarking and so the cells are becoming mismarking and so the cells are becoming differentiated. differentiated. differentiated. What we're going to do is we're going to What we're going to do is we're going to What we're going to do is we're going to take it at the healthiest point take it at the healthiest point take it at the healthiest point possible. going to put it in a petri possible. going to put it in a petri possible. going to put it in a petri dish, hit it with these Yamanaka dish, hit it with these Yamanaka dish, hit it with these Yamanaka factors, and we're going to actually factors, and we're going to actually factors, and we're going to actually send them back in time in that you're um send them back in time in that you're um send them back in time in that you're um you're actually differentiating them in you're actually differentiating them in you're actually differentiating them in the extreme. You're making them pur the extreme. You're making them pur the extreme. You're making them pur potent. They can become any kind of potent. They can become any kind of potent. They can become any kind of cell, but then you redifferiate them cell, but then you redifferiate them cell, but then you redifferiate them into the type of cell that you want them into the type of cell that you want them into the type of cell that you want them to be. And so now becomes a young as to be. And so now becomes a young as to be. And so now becomes a young as close to possible pristine version of close to possible pristine version of close to possible pristine version of that cell. And then you either grow an that cell. And then you either grow an that cell. And then you either grow an organ or whatever or you reinject it organ or whatever or you reinject it organ or whatever or you reinject it back into the body. And so now the body back into the body. And so now the body back into the body. And so now the body has those freshly methylated cells that has those freshly methylated cells that has those freshly methylated cells that function at the highest capacity. And so function at the highest capacity. And so function at the highest capacity. And so what you'll find is that people are what you'll find is that people are what you'll find is that people are literally cloning themselves and literally cloning themselves and literally cloning themselves and building their own organs and things in building their own organs and things in building their own organs and things in essentially vats and then when they need essentially vats and then when they need essentially vats and then when they need them, they'll then put them back into them, they'll then put them back into them, they'll then put them back into their own body. It this is right now their own body. It this is right now their own body. It this is right now probably the best thing we've got going probably the best thing we've got going probably the best thing we've got going in terms of radical life ex extension. in terms of radical life ex extension. in terms of radical life ex extension. Um, so this is very interesting. It's Um, so this is very interesting. It's Um, so this is very interesting. It's very real. It's actually been going on very real. It's actually been going on very real. It's actually been going on for a while. And so he's putting a top for a while. And so he's putting a top for a while. And so he's putting a top spin on it. Um, that, you know, it's spin on it. Um, that, you know, it's spin on it. Um, that, you know, it's like obviously people are expecting that like obviously people are expecting that like obviously people are expecting that there's a little baby somewhere of him. there's a little baby somewhere of him. there's a little baby somewhere of him. That is not true. It's just his cells. That is not true. It's just his cells. That is not true. It's just his cells. Uh, but it is it is coming. This is the Uh, but it is it is coming. This is the Uh, but it is it is coming. This is the future of medicine. Yes, in the future of medicine. Yes, in the future of medicine. Yes, in the beginning it will be very expensive, but beginning it will be very expensive, but beginning it will be very expensive, but this will come down in cost massively this will come down in cost massively this will come down in cost massively and probably relatively rapidly. The and probably relatively rapidly. The and probably relatively rapidly. The only thing that will [ __ ] that up is our only thing that will [ __ ] that up is our only thing that will [ __ ] that up is our absolute disaster of a uh public private absolute disaster of a uh public private absolute disaster of a uh public private health care system, which people should health care system, which people should health care system, which people should be furious about. They're furious about be furious about. They're furious about be furious about. They're furious about it for the wrong reasons, but isn't that it for the wrong reasons, but isn't that it for the wrong reasons, but isn't that typical? Um, but that might be something typical? Um, but that might be something typical? Um, but that might be something that slows down the um cost coming down, that slows down the um cost coming down, that slows down the um cost coming down, but the cost will come down as AI comes but the cost will come down as AI comes but the cost will come down as AI comes more on board, as energy becomes more on board, as energy becomes more on board, as energy becomes cheaper. Um, that will become available cheaper. Um, that will become available cheaper. Um, that will become available to everybody in the fullness of time. to everybody in the fullness of time. to everybody in the fullness of time. >> Yeah. And I think breaking it down to >> Yeah. And I think breaking it down to >> Yeah. And I think breaking it down to the first principles perspective is the the first principles perspective is the the first principles perspective is the thing that makes it most interesting to thing that makes it most interesting to thing that makes it most interesting to me because to your point, aging is this me because to your point, aging is this me because to your point, aging is this big gray fog area. It's hair, it's big gray fog area. It's hair, it's big gray fog area. It's hair, it's color, it's energy, it's all these color, it's energy, it's all these color, it's energy, it's all these things. But then when you break it down things. But then when you break it down things. But then when you break it down to the cellular level, it's really just to the cellular level, it's really just to the cellular level, it's really just like, no, your neck cells are getting a like, no, your neck cells are getting a like, no, your neck cells are getting a little lazy and they stop pulling it up. little lazy and they stop pulling it up. little lazy and they stop pulling it up. So let's strengthen your neck cells and So let's strengthen your neck cells and So let's strengthen your neck cells and then okay, your bags and then these then okay, your bags and then these then okay, your bags and then these little small changes at the molecular little small changes at the molecular little small changes at the molecular level have these then knock on effects level have these then knock on effects level have these then knock on effects with everything else. And yep, with everything else. And yep, with everything else. And yep, >> it's very interesting to build it up >> it's very interesting to build it up >> it's very interesting to build it up that way. very uh okay, another friend that way. very uh okay, another friend that way. very uh okay, another friend of the show, Biology, um is trying to of the show, Biology, um is trying to of the show, Biology, um is trying to start his own nation. Um it's very start his own nation. Um it's very start his own nation. Um it's very interesting with the network school. We interesting with the network school. We interesting with the network school. We had him on the show. He broke it down. had him on the show. He broke it down. had him on the show. He broke it down. His philosophy on the headline level is His philosophy on the headline level is His philosophy on the headline level is it's not left versus right. It's not it's not left versus right. It's not it's not left versus right. It's not good versus bad. It's not tech versus good versus bad. It's not tech versus good versus bad. It's not tech versus rural. It's more so a thought of ideas, rural. It's more so a thought of ideas, rural. It's more so a thought of ideas, not necessarily geography. I don't know not necessarily geography.

So, it's value system over geography. So, it's value system over geography. and people will end up linking up based and people will end up linking up based and people will end up linking up based on their beliefs and because we live in on their beliefs and because we live in on their beliefs and because we live in aworked age where people can find each aworked age where people can find each aworked age where people can find each other on the internet that um you're not other on the internet that um you're not other on the internet that um you're not going to have people group up anymore going to have people group up anymore going to have people group up anymore based on geography. Now I have long told based on geography. Now I have long told based on geography. Now I have long told bology that he's crazy about that and bology that he's crazy about that and bology that he's crazy about that and that there is going to be an element of that there is going to be an element of that there is going to be an element of geography to this and he ran smack bang geography to this and he ran smack bang geography to this and he ran smack bang into this very recently if you guys into this very recently if you guys into this very recently if you guys don't know. So, first of all, his full don't know. So, first of all, his full don't know. So, first of all, his full names Baji Sharina Vosan. He's names Baji Sharina Vosan. He's names Baji Sharina Vosan. He's incredible. He's a former CTO of incredible. He's a former CTO of incredible. He's a former CTO of Coinbase. Literally one of the smartest Coinbase. Literally one of the smartest Coinbase. Literally one of the smartest guys in tech. He's an absolute just guys in tech. He's an absolute just guys in tech. He's an absolute just brilliant machine. The more you can brilliant machine. The more you can brilliant machine. The more you can interface with him, the better your life interface with him, the better your life interface with him, the better your life will be. Uh, in August of 2024, he will be. Uh, in August of 2024, he will be. Uh, in August of 2024, he launched the network school, which is launched the network school, which is launched the network school, which is based on the back of that idea that I based on the back of that idea that I based on the back of that idea that I was just walking you through. And it is was just walking you through. And it is was just walking you through. And it is a um it's a school that's in Forest a um it's a school that's in Forest a um it's a school that's in Forest City, Malaysia. So there was like a they City, Malaysia. So there was like a they City, Malaysia. So there was like a they built something up some like big like um built something up some like big like um built something up some like big like um set of apartments or like an old um I set of apartments or like an old um I set of apartments or like an old um I forget it was built as something else forget it was built as something else forget it was built as something else that ends up falling through. He sees that ends up falling through. He sees that ends up falling through. He sees that like there's all this space that he that like there's all this space that he that like there's all this space that he can move people in. So he ends up moving can move people in. So he ends up moving can move people in. So he ends up moving a bunch of people in there. It's it's a bunch of people in there. It's it's a bunch of people in there. It's it's about an hour from Singapore. He's put about an hour from Singapore. He's put about an hour from Singapore. He's put roughly $25 million into it so far and roughly $25 million into it so far and roughly $25 million into it so far and brought all of these like tech positive brought all of these like tech positive brought all of these like tech positive entrepreneurs that share his network entrepreneurs that share his network entrepreneurs that share his network state mentality. And so these are state mentality. And so these are state mentality. And so these are presumably very entrepreneurial-minded presumably very entrepreneurial-minded presumably very entrepreneurial-minded people. They are all people that believe people. They are all people that believe people. They are all people that believe in this idea that we're all going to in this idea that we're all going to in this idea that we're all going to group up around um ideas via technology. group up around um ideas via technology. group up around um ideas via technology. And that's going to be the way that we And that's going to be the way that we And that's going to be the way that we build a state that we are even though build a state that we are even though build a state that we are even though we're geographically dispersed, we are we're geographically dispersed, we are we're geographically dispersed, we are all um adherence of the same ideology. all um adherence of the same ideology. all um adherence of the same ideology. And so we will link up in ways um and And so we will link up in ways um and And so we will link up in ways um and vote on things together as a collective vote on things together as a collective vote on things together as a collective even though we're distributed. Now I even though we're distributed. Now I even though we're distributed. Now I hope it's not lost on anybody that as hope it's not lost on anybody that as hope it's not lost on anybody that as this really started to gain momentum, this really started to gain momentum, this really started to gain momentum, what was the first thing he did? He what was the first thing he did? He what was the first thing he did? He brought everybody together physically brought everybody together physically brought everybody together physically because that's just how humans are because that's just how humans are because that's just how humans are wired. Geography is always going to play wired. Geography is always going to play wired. Geography is always going to play a role in this. And in mid July, an a role in this. And in mid July, an a role in this. And in mid July, an activist group called Malaysian Protest activist group called Malaysian Protest activist group called Malaysian Protest for Palestine posted allegations that for Palestine posted allegations that for Palestine posted allegations that the campus had become a gathering place the campus had become a gathering place the campus had become a gathering place for Israeli entrepreneurs. This this for Israeli entrepreneurs. This this for Israeli entrepreneurs. This this makes me laugh. Now, look, I get it. makes me laugh. Now, look, I get it. makes me laugh. Now, look, I get it. This is I'm probably on uh the very This is I'm probably on uh the very This is I'm probably on uh the very unpopular end of this debate, but unpopular end of this debate, but unpopular end of this debate, but nonetheless, I think people are um nonetheless, I think people are um nonetheless, I think people are um mapping everything to Israelis bad is a mapping everything to Israelis bad is a mapping everything to Israelis bad is a very weird way to approach this. But very weird way to approach this. But very weird way to approach this. But nonetheless, uh these guys went nonetheless, uh these guys went nonetheless, uh these guys went absolutely ham because Malaysia just absolutely ham because Malaysia just absolutely ham because Malaysia just does not play with Israelis. Uh the does not play with Israelis. Uh the does not play with Israelis. Uh the country does not recognize Israel and country does not recognize Israel and country does not recognize Israel and Israeli passport holders can't enter Israeli passport holders can't enter Israeli passport holders can't enter without written permission from the Home without written permission from the Home without written permission from the Home Affairs Ministry. Uh, so the ministry is Affairs Ministry. Uh, so the ministry is Affairs Ministry. Uh, so the ministry is like, "Yo, we're going to go in. We're like, "Yo, we're going to go in. We're like, "Yo, we're going to go in. We're going to find out if this is really going to find out if this is really going to find out if this is really true." They open an investigation. true." They open an investigation. true." They open an investigation. Immigration officers raid Bali's campus. Immigration officers raid Bali's campus. Immigration officers raid Bali's campus. They check hundreds of passports. The They check hundreds of passports. The They check hundreds of passports. The initial result is that all 266 initial result is that all 266 initial result is that all 266 foreigners that were actually on site, foreigners that were actually on site, foreigners that were actually on site, they had valid travel documents. Cool. they had valid travel documents. Cool. they had valid travel documents. Cool. We could have left it there. But Bology We could have left it there. But Bology We could have left it there. But Bology is not going to let that ride. And I is not going to let that ride. And I is not going to let that ride. And I think honestly he was right to make the think honestly he was right to make the think honestly he was right to make the move I'm about to tell you about. But he move I'm about to tell you about. But he move I'm about to tell you about. But he just was like, I need to know for sure just was like, I need to know for sure just was like, I need to know for sure whether we can move forward or not whether we can move forward or not whether we can move forward or not because now that I see that you guys because now that I see that you guys because now that I see that you guys don't like that we're here and that don't like that we're here and that don't like that we're here and that there's going to be some contention, we there's going to be some contention, we there's going to be some contention, we we need to like really pin this down. So we need to like really pin this down. So we need to like really pin this down. So on July 16th, he posts a video addressed on July 16th, he posts a video addressed on July 16th, he posts a video addressed directly to the prime minister Anoir directly to the prime minister Anoir directly to the prime minister Anoir Ibrahim and he pauses because he he's Ibrahim and he pauses because he he's Ibrahim and he pauses because he he's got like this big it's like $122 million got like this big it's like $122 million got like this big it's like $122 million expansion that he's planning. He pauses expansion that he's planning. He pauses expansion that he's planning. He pauses that and demands, put that in quotes, that and demands, put that in quotes, that and demands, put that in quotes, but a written guarantee, call it anou or but a written guarantee, call it anou or but a written guarantee, call it anou or a specific economic zone provision, a specific economic zone provision, a specific economic zone provision, whatever. But he wants to know that the whatever. But he wants to know that the whatever. But he wants to know that the network state is welcome. And he warned network state is welcome. And he warned network state is welcome. And he warned that, hey, if we're not welcome here, that, hey, if we're not welcome here, that, hey, if we're not welcome here, fair enough, but we're going to fair enough, but we're going to fair enough, but we're going to relocate, right? So, it's like, look, relocate, right? So, it's like, look, relocate, right? So, it's like, look, we're bringing a lot of we're bringing a lot of we're bringing a lot of entrepreneurial-minded people here. entrepreneurial-minded people here. entrepreneurial-minded people here. We're going to be paying taxes. Like, We're going to be paying taxes. Like, We're going to be paying taxes. Like, this is a good thing for you guys. We're this is a good thing for you guys. We're this is a good thing for you guys. We're bringing investment. And they were bringing investment. And they were bringing investment. And they were basically like, yeah, [ __ ] you. 5 days basically like, yeah, [ __ ] you. 5 days basically like, yeah, [ __ ] you. 5 days later, the local city council gave their later, the local city council gave their later, the local city council gave their answer. It revoked network schools answer. It revoked network schools answer. It revoked network schools business license, ordered all operations business license, ordered all operations business license, ordered all operations to cease by July 22nd, which is today. to cease by July 22nd, which is today. to cease by July 22nd, which is today. Yeah. Uh and they stated that you're Yeah. Uh and they stated that you're Yeah. Uh and they stated that you're basically running classroom activities basically running classroom activities basically running classroom activities from premises uh licensed as offices. So from premises uh licensed as offices. So from premises uh licensed as offices. So like a technicality, you guys are like a technicality, you guys are like a technicality, you guys are operating a second location with no operating a second location with no operating a second location with no license at all. Again, a technicality. license at all. Again, a technicality. license at all. Again, a technicality. And so Joe Har the I think the city that And so Joe Har the I think the city that And so Joe Har the I think the city that they're in the chief minister backed the they're in the chief minister backed the they're in the chief minister backed the decision called for continued decision called for continued decision called for continued investigation into the alleged misuse of investigation into the alleged misuse of investigation into the alleged misuse of second passports. So it's like okay sure second passports. So it's like okay sure second passports. So it's like okay sure we go we raid everybody's legit but what we go we raid everybody's legit but what we go we raid everybody's legit but what if they really are Israeli and they just if they really are Israeli and they just if they really are Israeli and they just are using like another passport from a are using like another passport from a are using like another passport from a different country. So Bology then called different country. So Bology then called different country. So Bology then called the shutdown reports fake news. You guys the shutdown reports fake news. You guys the shutdown reports fake news. You guys are overblowing this. He said that the are overblowing this. He said that the are overblowing this. He said that the issues are just administrative. issues are just administrative. issues are just administrative. Everything is good. and he now basically Everything is good. and he now basically Everything is good. and he now basically realizes that uh the network state needs realizes that uh the network state needs realizes that uh the network state needs an actual state and they need somebody an actual state and they need somebody an actual state and they need somebody that's going to be friendly to them. And that's going to be friendly to them. And that's going to be friendly to them. And this is the thing that I've been trying this is the thing that I've been trying this is the thing that I've been trying to get Bali to understand for a long to get Bali to understand for a long to get Bali to understand for a long time is that bro at some point this is time is that bro at some point this is time is that bro at some point this is going you're going to exist in a going you're going to exist in a going you're going to exist in a geography that geography is not going to geography that geography is not going to geography that geography is not going to like that you're trying to be um like that you're trying to be um like that you're trying to be um extrajudicial that you're doing things extrajudicial that you're doing things extrajudicial that you're doing things that don't line up with their laws. And that don't line up with their laws. And that don't line up with their laws. And that that's the whole point of your that that's the whole point of your that that's the whole point of your endeavor is that you're trying to create endeavor is that you're trying to create endeavor is that you're trying to create like this new thing based on new like this new thing based on new like this new thing based on new beliefs, new values. And so I'll be beliefs, new values. And so I'll be beliefs, new values. And so I'll be interested to see how this plays out. interested to see how this plays out. interested to see how this plays out. They end up getting a document signed They end up getting a document signed They end up getting a document signed with Kazakhstan, I believe. And so we'll with Kazakhstan, I believe. And so we'll with Kazakhstan, I believe. And so we'll see. Maybe they're going to move there. see. Maybe they're going to move there. see. Maybe they're going to move there. Maybe things will be more friendly. But Maybe things will be more friendly. But Maybe things will be more friendly. But the game that he's now realizing he's the game that he's now realizing he's the game that he's now realizing he's playing is, yeah, we have to be playing is, yeah, we have to be playing is, yeah, we have to be somewhere. And so I know at one point somewhere. And so I know at one point somewhere. And so I know at one point rumor was I don't know if it was rumor was I don't know if it was rumor was I don't know if it was actually him but rumor was people u actually him but rumor was people u actually him but rumor was people u Peter Teal and others were looking at Peter Teal and others were looking at Peter Teal and others were looking at creating basically a nation out in creating basically a nation out in creating basically a nation out in international waters. I don't know international waters. I don't know international waters. I don't know Bology ends up doing something like Bology ends up doing something like Bology ends up doing something like that. We'll see. But that's a lot of that. We'll see. But that's a lot of that. We'll see. But that's a lot of infrastructure. So my gut is that he's infrastructure. So my gut is that he's infrastructure. So my gut is that he's going to do something like a deal with going to do something like a deal with going to do something like a deal with Kazakhstan or somewhere else where they Kazakhstan or somewhere else where they Kazakhstan or somewhere else where they have a government that's friendly to have a government that's friendly to have a government that's friendly to them that wants those tax dollars quite them that wants those tax dollars quite them that wants those tax dollars quite frankly. But my question is, what frankly. But my question is, what frankly. But my question is, what happens when you run a foul of what happens when you run a foul of what happens when you run a foul of what they've got going? You can hope that you they've got going? You can hope that you they've got going? You can hope that you become economically important enough become economically important enough become economically important enough that they'll grant you I don't know if that they'll grant you I don't know if that they'll grant you I don't know if it's going to end up being something it's going to end up being something it's going to end up being something like the Vatican or what. Uh but humans like the Vatican or what. Uh but humans like the Vatican or what. Uh but humans like being physically adjacent to the like being physically adjacent to the like being physically adjacent to the people that they're dealing with. That's people that they're dealing with. That's people that they're dealing with. That's never going to go away. And if you're never going to go away. And if you're never going to go away. And if you're trying to have a different set of trying to have a different set of trying to have a different set of governing principles, even if they're governing principles, even if they're governing principles, even if they're not specifically laws, you're going to not specifically laws, you're going to not specifically laws, you're going to run into problems like this. Uh so we'll run into problems like this. Uh so we'll run into problems like this. Uh so we'll see if this is something that is see if this is something that is see if this is something that is navigable even in a hyperconnected navigable even in a hyperconnected navigable even in a hyperconnected world. I think there's geography is world. I think there's geography is world. I think there's geography is always going to rear its head. You said always going to rear its head. You said always going to rear its head. You said it until you have governing laws, it it until you have governing laws, it it until you have governing laws, it won't. So like it's not the collection won't. So like it's not the collection won't. So like it's not the collection of people, it's the government like of people, it's the government like of people, it's the government like >> Yeah. If you're in a jurisdiction >> Yeah. If you're in a jurisdiction >> Yeah. If you're in a jurisdiction governed by Kazakhstan, uh, Malaysia, governed by Kazakhstan, uh, Malaysia, governed by Kazakhstan, uh, Malaysia, US, wherever, and you guys are trying to US, wherever, and you guys are trying to US, wherever, and you guys are trying to do your own thing, do your own thing, do your own thing, >> if you, uh, perfectly adhere to every >> if you, uh, perfectly adhere to every >> if you, uh, perfectly adhere to every rule, regulation of that government, and rule, regulation of that government, and rule, regulation of that government, and then like give some extra restrictions then like give some extra restrictions then like give some extra restrictions or whatever to your group, then it's or whatever to your group, then it's or whatever to your group, then it's going to be fine. The second you try to going to be fine. The second you try to going to be fine. The second you try to give extra benefits, now you've got a give extra benefits, now you've got a give extra benefits, now you've got a problem. So they were bringing Israelis, problem. So they were bringing Israelis, problem. So they were bringing Israelis, as the allegations go, into Malaysia, as the allegations go, into Malaysia, as the allegations go, into Malaysia, which is a hard pass from Malaysia. So which is a hard pass from Malaysia. So which is a hard pass from Malaysia. So now they're realizing, uhoh, we we can now they're realizing, uhoh, we we can now they're realizing, uhoh, we we can further restrict, but we can't further further restrict, but we can't further further restrict, but we can't further grant. And so it's just like states. So grant. And so it's just like states. So grant. And so it's just like states. So you've got Mani saying, I'm going to you've got Mani saying, I'm going to you've got Mani saying, I'm going to arrest um Netanyahu if he comes to New arrest um Netanyahu if he comes to New arrest um Netanyahu if he comes to New York. And then the federal government York. And then the federal government York. And then the federal government reminding him, hey, dumbass. Uh you reminding him, hey, dumbass. Uh you reminding him, hey, dumbass. Uh you can't do that. So that is what Baji is can't do that. So that is what Baji is can't do that. So that is what Baji is waking up to is that there there are waking up to is that there there are waking up to is that there there are additional restrictions that he can put additional restrictions that he can put additional restrictions that he can put on his own people, but he certainly on his own people, but he certainly on his own people, but he certainly can't grant them rights that the can't grant them rights that the can't grant them rights that the government that they're operating inside government that they're operating inside government that they're operating inside of um don't already give. of um don't already give. of um don't already give. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. >> Mhm. is that like the sustain like because on is that like the sustain like because on is that like the sustain like because on paper I understand what he's trying to paper I understand what he's trying to paper I understand what he's trying to do and there is a sense of being free do and there is a sense of being free do and there is a sense of being free and independent of the bureaucracy that and independent of the bureaucracy that and independent of the bureaucracy that is inherently comes with government but is inherently comes with government but is inherently comes with government but is it just that's not how humans work is it just that's not how humans work is it just that's not how humans work and you just and you just and you just >> I'm not even sure that he's trying to be >> I'm not even sure that he's trying to be >> I'm not even sure that he's trying to be um what he's trying to do is say that um what he's trying to do is say that um what he's trying to do is say that humans gravitate towards values that's humans gravitate towards values that's humans gravitate towards values that's the thing that ultimately unites us. It the thing that ultimately unites us. It the thing that ultimately unites us. It isn't geography. isn't geography. isn't geography. >> Mhm. Historically, it had to be >> Mhm. Historically, it had to be >> Mhm. Historically, it had to be geography because we didn't have a way geography because we didn't have a way geography because we didn't have a way to find each other to connect. Uh we to find each other to connect. Uh we to find each other to connect. Uh we didn't have um blockchain technology to didn't have um blockchain technology to didn't have um blockchain technology to run contracts without needing run contracts without needing run contracts without needing adjudication, things like that. Um now adjudication, things like that. Um now adjudication, things like that. Um now that we have that technology, then that we have that technology, then that we have that technology, then there's no reason that we need to be there's no reason that we need to be there's no reason that we need to be bound by geography. And my pitch to him bound by geography. And my pitch to him bound by geography. And my pitch to him is that's just not the way that the is that's just not the way that the is that's just not the way that the human mind operates. We're always going human mind operates. We're always going human mind operates. We're always going to want to share space. We're always to want to share space. We're always to want to share space. We're always going to be subject subject to a power going to be subject subject to a power going to be subject subject to a power structure. And so even going in structure. And so even going in structure. And so even going in international waters is you saying that international waters is you saying that international waters is you saying that hey um I know there are rules about hey um I know there are rules about hey um I know there are rules about international waters. I it's it is more international waters. I it's it is more international waters. I it's it is more lenient and so I'm going to go do these lenient and so I'm going to go do these lenient and so I'm going to go do these things in international waters that I things in international waters that I things in international waters that I wouldn't otherwise be able to do. But wouldn't otherwise be able to do. But wouldn't otherwise be able to do. But you're still um by the way uh pirates you're still um by the way uh pirates you're still um by the way uh pirates could come and raid you and so now could come and raid you and so now could come and raid you and so now you're going to have to have your own you're going to have to have your own you're going to have to have your own military. And so like all of the sudden military. And so like all of the sudden military. And so like all of the sudden it's like you're really trying to be a it's like you're really trying to be a it's like you're really trying to be a new country and that is the part that new country and that is the part that new country and that is the part that I'm trying to um it's the part that I'll I'm trying to um it's the part that I'll I'm trying to um it's the part that I'll be very interested to see. My current be very interested to see. My current be very interested to see. My current mental model is there will be no way to mental model is there will be no way to mental model is there will be no way to do this that you have a bunch of people do this that you have a bunch of people do this that you have a bunch of people that are effectively in a club. They're that are effectively in a club. They're that are effectively in a club. They're sharing ideas. Maybe they're um you know sharing ideas. Maybe they're um you know sharing ideas. Maybe they're um you know running blockchain contracts, but all running blockchain contracts, but all running blockchain contracts, but all those contracts are going to be subject those contracts are going to be subject those contracts are going to be subject to the laws of the jurisdictions that to the laws of the jurisdictions that to the laws of the jurisdictions that they're in. and they're never going to they're in. and they're never going to they're in. and they're never going to actually be able to be essentially extra actually be able to be essentially extra actually be able to be essentially extra jur jurisdiction jurisdictional where jur jurisdiction jurisdictional where jur jurisdiction jurisdictional where they're outside of that. So, um yeah, I they're outside of that. So, um yeah, I they're outside of that. So, um yeah, I just think that's going to be forever a just think that's going to be forever a just think that's going to be forever a friction. They will literally find friction. They will literally find friction. They will literally find themselves having to create their own themselves having to create their own themselves having to create their own state and then defend that state and state and then defend that state and state and then defend that state and then be physically located somewhere and then be physically located somewhere and then be physically located somewhere and now you're just back to the same now you're just back to the same now you're just back to the same problem. You may have found each other problem. You may have found each other problem. You may have found each other over the network, but you weren't able over the network, but you weren't able over the network, but you weren't able to actually govern over the network to actually govern over the network to actually govern over the network unless you're willing to uh submit to unless you're willing to uh submit to unless you're willing to uh submit to the local authorities. the local authorities. the local authorities. >> In the future of the AI, the four >> In the future of the AI, the four >> In the future of the AI, the four possibilities, we did talk about virtual possibilities, we did talk about virtual possibilities, we did talk about virtual worlds and kind of operating in there. worlds and kind of operating in there. worlds and kind of operating in there. Is this a technical limitation? And when Is this a technical limitation? And when Is this a technical limitation? And when we're all jacked in and I could be in a we're all jacked in and I could be in a we're all jacked in and I could be in a LA basement, but mentally I'm in the LA basement, but mentally I'm in the LA basement, but mentally I'm in the network state in network villand, would network state in network villand, would network state in network villand, would that be like the sol like this? uh and that be like the sol like this? uh and that be like the sol like this? uh and it won't solve it because what'll it won't solve it because what'll it won't solve it because what'll ultimately happen is think about like ultimately happen is think about like ultimately happen is think about like right now even um in video games. So right now even um in video games. So right now even um in video games. So there's a big thing about uh is this there's a big thing about uh is this there's a big thing about uh is this gambling? Is what you're doing gambling? gambling? Is what you're doing gambling? gambling? Is what you're doing gambling? And so or trading cards? So Japan wants And so or trading cards? So Japan wants And so or trading cards? So Japan wants to sell their Pokemon cards in America to sell their Pokemon cards in America to sell their Pokemon cards in America and it's like well there are gambling and it's like well there are gambling and it's like well there are gambling laws and those things are um there laws and those things are um there laws and those things are um there somebody debated me on this at one somebody debated me on this at one somebody debated me on this at one point. They think I'm wrong about the point. They think I'm wrong about the point. They think I'm wrong about the gambling laws. I'm pretty sure I'm gambling laws. I'm pretty sure I'm gambling laws. I'm pretty sure I'm right. Uh certainly it is true in video right. Uh certainly it is true in video right. Uh certainly it is true in video games that there are some things that games that there are some things that games that there are some things that are considered gambling and so there are are considered gambling and so there are are considered gambling and so there are specific regulations that you have to specific regulations that you have to specific regulations that you have to like adhere to and so that doesn't like adhere to and so that doesn't like adhere to and so that doesn't matter that that is being generated in a matter that that is being generated in a matter that that is being generated in a different country. What matters is the different country. What matters is the different country. What matters is the country in which is being played. And so country in which is being played. And so country in which is being played. And so if you're not adhering to the gambling if you're not adhering to the gambling if you're not adhering to the gambling laws of the US, it doesn't matter that laws of the US, it doesn't matter that laws of the US, it doesn't matter that the game is made in Japan or China. It's the game is made in Japan or China. It's the game is made in Japan or China. It's like we have laws and so you're going to like we have laws and so you're going to like we have laws and so you're going to have to adhere to that. And so similar, have to adhere to that. And so similar, have to adhere to that. And so similar, you're living inside of a virtual world, you're living inside of a virtual world, you're living inside of a virtual world, but your body is still in a physical but your body is still in a physical but your body is still in a physical jurisdiction.

They were being systemically suppressed during COVID for systemically suppressed during COVID for systemically suppressed during COVID for sure. And he brought us out of that sure. And he brought us out of that sure. And he brought us out of that fever dream. And so despite the fact fever dream. And so despite the fact fever dream. And so despite the fact that sometimes you see some of the that sometimes you see some of the that sometimes you see some of the things he says and you're like, "God things he says and you're like, "God things he says and you're like, "God damn." Uh I don't think that's somebody damn." Uh I don't think that's somebody damn." Uh I don't think that's somebody that's like, "Oh, this is what I have to that's like, "Oh, this is what I have to that's like, "Oh, this is what I have to do to stay in power." This is an do to stay in power." This is an do to stay in power." This is an engineer who has put this stuff to use engineer who has put this stuff to use engineer who has put this stuff to use in his own life and this is me in his own life and this is me in his own life and this is me projecting because this is exactly why I projecting because this is exactly why I projecting because this is exactly why I feel the way that I feel.

That is a real story to building a That is a real story to building a That is a real story to building a billion dollar company, selling it, all billion dollar company, selling it, all billion dollar company, selling it, all that. Okay. So then I go, "Yo, I want that. Okay. So then I go, "Yo, I want that. Okay. So then I go, "Yo, I want other people to be able to do this." And other people to be able to do this." And other people to be able to do this." And so you start telling them what you do so you start telling them what you do so you start telling them what you do and you get a violent backlash and you and you get a violent backlash and you and you get a violent backlash and you get very confused. Like the first blog get very confused. Like the first blog get very confused. Like the first blog post I ever wrote was, "If you get hit post I ever wrote was, "If you get hit post I ever wrote was, "If you get hit by a drunk driver, it's all your fault." by a drunk driver, it's all your fault." by a drunk driver, it's all your fault." That idea changed my life completely for That idea changed my life completely for That idea changed my life completely for the better. Made everything better. And the better. Made everything better.
