But nonetheless I am applause everybody. But nonetheless I am happy to have you here. Better late than happy to have you here. Better late than happy to have you here. Better late than never. Better late than never. Well so never. Better late than never. Well so never. Better late than never. Well so as you can see AI has nothing to worry as you can see AI has nothing to worry as you can see AI has nothing to worry about as humans uh are falling behind about as humans uh are falling behind about as humans uh are falling behind and the real question of the day is are and the real question of the day is are and the real question of the day is are humans losing control over AI. recent humans losing control over AI. recent humans losing control over AI. recent breakthroughs have caused an unnerving breakthroughs have caused an unnerving breakthroughs have caused an unnerving number of departures from AI companies number of departures from AI companies number of departures from AI companies over security concerns. And so, we're over security concerns. And so, we're over security concerns. And so, we're definitely going to be going deep on definitely going to be going deep on definitely going to be going deep on that one today. There was also an AI that one today. There was also an AI that one today. There was also an AI memo that went hyperviral, memo that went hyperviral, memo that went hyperviral, getting uh 26 million views on a single getting uh 26 million views on a single getting uh 26 million views on a single post. Uh this is something that I think post. Uh this is something that I think post. Uh this is something that I think a lot of people are feeling. I've got a a lot of people are feeling. I've got a a lot of people are feeling. I've got a is it a hot take? I don't know about is it a hot take? I don't know about is it a hot take? I don't know about that, but I've got an alternate take for that, but I've got an alternate take for that, but I've got an alternate take for you guys uh that I'm eager to get into you guys uh that I'm eager to get into you guys uh that I'm eager to get into today. an old clip of Marco Rubio is today. an old clip of Marco Rubio is today. an old clip of Marco Rubio is going viral on X. In it, he talks about going viral on X. In it, he talks about going viral on X. In it, he talks about the US being at tremendous risk of the US being at tremendous risk of the US being at tremendous risk of losing their ability to sanction other losing their ability to sanction other losing their ability to sanction other countries. We're going to talk about why countries. We're going to talk about why countries. We're going to talk about why this is surfacing again now because it's this is surfacing again now because it's this is surfacing again now because it's actually a couple of years old. Uh what actually a couple of years old. Uh what actually a couple of years old. Uh what is happening in the world that makes is happening in the world that makes is happening in the world that makes everybody care about that one? Did a everybody care about that one? Did a everybody care about that one? Did a Mexican drug cartel controlled drone Mexican drug cartel controlled drone Mexican drug cartel controlled drone violate US airspace? violate US airspace? violate US airspace? That's what many are claiming after the That's what many are claiming after the That's what many are claiming after the FAA dramatically shut down the airspace FAA dramatically shut down the airspace FAA dramatically shut down the airspace over El Paso last night, originally over El Paso last night, originally over El Paso last night, originally saying that they were going to be doing saying that they were going to be doing saying that they were going to be doing it for 10 days. So, that's wild if that it for 10 days. So, that's wild if that it for 10 days. So, that's wild if that ends up being true, as that would be a ends up being true, as that would be a ends up being true, as that would be a foreign nation uh violating our foreign nation uh violating our foreign nation uh violating our sovereignty. Is turnabout fair play, sovereignty. Is turnabout fair play, sovereignty. Is turnabout fair play, boys and girls? So, this is going to be boys and girls? So, this is going to be boys and girls? So, this is going to be wild if we really end up in a showdown wild if we really end up in a showdown wild if we really end up in a showdown with the cartels. Speaking of showdowns, with the cartels. Speaking of showdowns, with the cartels. Speaking of showdowns, Trump is hassling Canada over a bridge, Trump is hassling Canada over a bridge, Trump is hassling Canada over a bridge, highlighting ongoing tensions between us highlighting ongoing tensions between us highlighting ongoing tensions between us and one of our closest neighbors. We're and one of our closest neighbors. We're and one of our closest neighbors. We're going to be talking partly as we go going to be talking partly as we go going to be talking partly as we go deeper down the Marco Rubio rabbit hole. deeper down the Marco Rubio rabbit hole. deeper down the Marco Rubio rabbit hole. We're going to be talking more about why We're going to be talking more about why We're going to be talking more about why is Trump doing all of this. Uh certainly is Trump doing all of this. Uh certainly is Trump doing all of this. Uh certainly without needing anybody to believe he's without needing anybody to believe he's without needing anybody to believe he's anything other than chaotic, but what's anything other than chaotic, but what's anything other than chaotic, but what's prompting the chaos? We're going to go prompting the chaos? We're going to go prompting the chaos? We're going to go into that. Zuck is fleeing California into that. Zuck is fleeing California into that. Zuck is fleeing California and the state is learning the very hard and the state is learning the very hard and the state is learning the very hard lesson of Laugher's curve in real time. lesson of Laugher's curve in real time. lesson of Laugher's curve in real time. If you guys remember, we had Arthur If you guys remember, we had Arthur If you guys remember, we had Arthur Laugher, the guy that created this. You Laugher, the guy that created this. You Laugher, the guy that created this. You can try and tax people to death if you can try and tax people to death if you can try and tax people to death if you want. It just doesn't work. And somehow want. It just doesn't work. And somehow want. It just doesn't work. And somehow someway humans refuse to learn their someway humans refuse to learn their someway humans refuse to learn their lessons from history. There is a reason lessons from history. There is a reason lessons from history. There is a reason that socialism and communism fail every that socialism and communism fail every that socialism and communism fail every time. So, we're going to be talking time. So, we're going to be talking time. So, we're going to be talking about that. Weed is getting a new look about that. Weed is getting a new look about that. Weed is getting a new look as data is coming out suggesting that as data is coming out suggesting that as data is coming out suggesting that for some it might be leading to for some it might be leading to for some it might be leading to schizophrenia. The numbers are schizophrenia. The numbers are schizophrenia. The numbers are staggering for men especially. We're staggering for men especially. We're staggering for men especially. We're going to go into that. If you guys know going to go into that. If you guys know going to go into that. If you guys know Palmer Lucky and JCAL from the All-In Palmer Lucky and JCAL from the All-In Palmer Lucky and JCAL from the All-In podcast, that beef is heating up. It's podcast, that beef is heating up. It's podcast, that beef is heating up. It's been weird for a long time, but now been weird for a long time, but now been weird for a long time, but now Palmer is convinced that JCAL went to Palmer is convinced that JCAL went to Palmer is convinced that JCAL went to Epstein's island and is lying about it Epstein's island and is lying about it Epstein's island and is lying about it and he wants to put a big bet on the and he wants to put a big bet on the and he wants to put a big bet on the table that could see JCAL disappearing table that could see JCAL disappearing table that could see JCAL disappearing from the All-In podcast if he were to from the All-In podcast if he were to from the All-In podcast if he were to take the bet and lose. Of course, we'll take the bet and lose. Of course, we'll take the bet and lose. Of course, we'll see. And we have a very special guest see. And we have a very special guest see. And we have a very special guest joining us today to talk about how to joining us today to talk about how to joining us today to talk about how to safely mix politics and sex.

If you haven't hit the poll to do it. If you haven't hit the poll yet, please hit the poll. When was the yet, please hit the poll. When was the yet, please hit the poll. When was the last time you used AI? 63% of you said, last time you used AI? 63% of you said, last time you used AI? 63% of you said, "Last time. I'm using it right now." 20% "Last time. I'm using it right now." 20% "Last time. I'm using it right now." 20% said a couple times a month. 7% said said a couple times a month. 7% said said a couple times a month. 7% said it's been a while. And 9% or 10% now, it it's been a while. And 9% or 10% now, it it's been a while. And 9% or 10% now, it just jumped up said never used it at just jumped up said never used it at just jumped up said never used it at all. So, for those 10 and 7% who it's all. So, for those 10 and 7% who it's all. So, for those 10 and 7% who it's been a while or you haven't used it at been a while or you haven't used it at been a while or you haven't used it at all, um, this next segment is for you. all, um, this next segment is for you. all, um, this next segment is for you. that anyone in our audience that anyone in our audience that anyone in our audience >> has not used AI. That's wild. >> has not used AI. That's wild. >> has not used AI. That's wild. >> But even Google gives you AI summaries >> But even Google gives you AI summaries >> But even Google gives you AI summaries now. now. now. >> Yeah. The funny thing is people use AI >> Yeah. The funny thing is people use AI >> Yeah. The funny thing is people use AI whether they realize it or not. Uh but whether they realize it or not. Uh but whether they realize it or not. Uh but if they're not going out of their way, if they're not going out of their way, if they're not going out of their way, >> if they're not active actively >> if they're not active actively >> if they're not active actively prompting, hitting the chatbot, it might prompting, hitting the chatbot, it might prompting, hitting the chatbot, it might be different. But yeah, I know you talk be different. But yeah, I know you talk be different. But yeah, I know you talk about it a lot. You ceue it up. So, uh about it a lot. You ceue it up. So, uh about it a lot. You ceue it up. So, uh what does this moment like mean to you? what does this moment like mean to you? what does this moment like mean to you? because I know we have a bunch of stuff because I know we have a bunch of stuff because I know we have a bunch of stuff to kind of review and things like that, to kind of review and things like that, to kind of review and things like that, but to those 10% to 7% who haven't used but to those 10% to 7% who haven't used but to those 10% to 7% who haven't used it, if you could give them like a quick it, if you could give them like a quick it, if you could give them like a quick like, hey, seriously, you need to like like, hey, seriously, you need to like like, hey, seriously, you need to like come on board, how would you kind of come on board, how would you kind of come on board, how would you kind of pitch them to realize what's happening? pitch them to realize what's happening? pitch them to realize what's happening? >> Okay, so I'll I'll give you that and >> Okay, so I'll I'll give you that and >> Okay, so I'll I'll give you that and then I really want to go into um what's then I really want to go into um what's then I really want to go into um what's happening right now. There's obviously happening right now. There's obviously happening right now. There's obviously um a very dramatic like seismic shift um a very dramatic like seismic shift um a very dramatic like seismic shift that happened underground that people that happened underground that people that happened underground that people aren't fully aware of what happened. Uh, aren't fully aware of what happened. Uh, aren't fully aware of what happened. Uh, and I think that's going to be really and I think that's going to be really and I think that's going to be really important. At the end of that, I've got important. At the end of that, I've got important. At the end of that, I've got a whole a whole a whole >> pitch that I want to make to people. Um, >> pitch that I want to make to people. Um, >> pitch that I want to make to people. Um, we'll see how it goes. Uh, but it it the we'll see how it goes. Uh, but it it the we'll see how it goes. Uh, but it it the thing that people need to be thinking thing that people need to be thinking thing that people need to be thinking about right now, even if you think that about right now, even if you think that about right now, even if you think that ultimately AI is going to replace every ultimately AI is going to replace every ultimately AI is going to replace every job ever, the goal is always to be the job ever, the goal is always to be the job ever, the goal is always to be the last person standing. So, right now, I'm last person standing. So, right now, I'm last person standing. So, right now, I'm not interested in replacing anybody that not interested in replacing anybody that not interested in replacing anybody that can use AI. But if somebody in the can use AI. But if somebody in the can use AI. But if somebody in the company were refusing to use AI, that company were refusing to use AI, that company were refusing to use AI, that person is hyper at risk because I know person is hyper at risk because I know person is hyper at risk because I know how much more you can get done by using how much more you can get done by using how much more you can get done by using AI. AI. AI. >> So everybody's goal literally in the >> So everybody's goal literally in the >> So everybody's goal literally in the world. Even from a place of excitement, world. Even from a place of excitement, world. Even from a place of excitement, I don't want to see people doing this I don't want to see people doing this I don't want to see people doing this out of fear. Of course, they will, but out of fear. Of course, they will, but out of fear. Of course, they will, but like that would not be my pitch. My like that would not be my pitch. My like that would not be my pitch. My pitch is to do this out of excitement of pitch is to do this out of excitement of pitch is to do this out of excitement of how far it can push your abilities. Now, how far it can push your abilities. Now, how far it can push your abilities. Now, if you have a slave mentality, you're if you have a slave mentality, you're if you have a slave mentality, you're keeping your head down, you're doing as keeping your head down, you're doing as keeping your head down, you're doing as little work as possible, and you're little work as possible, and you're little work as possible, and you're avoiding punishment at all costs, and avoiding punishment at all costs, and avoiding punishment at all costs, and that's like your whole life. Okay, I get that's like your whole life. Okay, I get that's like your whole life. Okay, I get why trying to get good with AI does not why trying to get good with AI does not why trying to get good with AI does not speak to you because you're not pursuing speak to you because you're not pursuing speak to you because you're not pursuing a career or a calling. You're just a career or a calling. You're just a career or a calling. You're just punching a clock. punching a clock. punching a clock. >> Uh those people are toast. They are >> Uh those people are toast. They are >> Uh those people are toast. They are going to get wiped out. It is going to going to get wiped out. It is going to going to get wiped out. It is going to be people that are passionate, that want be people that are passionate, that want be people that are passionate, that want to learn these things for their own to learn these things for their own to learn these things for their own reasons, that fall in love with the reasons, that fall in love with the reasons, that fall in love with the acquisition of skills, that believe the acquisition of skills, that believe the acquisition of skills, that believe the thing that I repeat endlessly, which is thing that I repeat endlessly, which is thing that I repeat endlessly, which is skills have utility. And part of the skills have utility. And part of the skills have utility. And part of the utility in the AI era is going to be utility in the AI era is going to be utility in the AI era is going to be that you're going to be able to survive that you're going to be able to survive that you're going to be able to survive longer at your job than anybody else longer at your job than anybody else longer at your job than anybody else because remember it's just the because remember it's just the because remember it's just the transition period that's going to be transition period that's going to be transition period that's going to be awkward potentially um very difficult, awkward potentially um very difficult, awkward potentially um very difficult, very brutal. And if you're one of the very brutal. And if you're one of the very brutal. And if you're one of the people that's able to continue having a people that's able to continue having a people that's able to continue having a job and be a part of the economy as we job and be a part of the economy as we job and be a part of the economy as we know it and understand it to cross that know it and understand it to cross that know it and understand it to cross that chasm as we get to the other side as chasm as we get to the other side as chasm as we get to the other side as things reduce dramatically in cost as we things reduce dramatically in cost as we things reduce dramatically in cost as we begin to orient to the new world then begin to orient to the new world then begin to orient to the new world then you're going to be in a much better you're going to be in a much better you're going to be in a much better position. Think of it as being very much position. Think of it as being very much position. Think of it as being very much like COVID. Um, don't die early, right? like COVID. Um, don't die early, right? like COVID. Um, don't die early, right? So, in the beginning, um, you the whole So, in the beginning, um, you the whole So, in the beginning, um, you the whole goal was just we don't know what this goal was just we don't know what this goal was just we don't know what this is. Stay alive, stay safe, uh, protect is. Stay alive, stay safe, uh, protect is. Stay alive, stay safe, uh, protect yourself, make sure that you've got the yourself, make sure that you've got the yourself, make sure that you've got the things you need at your house in order things you need at your house in order things you need at your house in order to get to the other side of it. And now to get to the other side of it. And now to get to the other side of it. And now life is back to normal. AI, I have a life is back to normal. AI, I have a life is back to normal. AI, I have a feeling, is going to be something like feeling, is going to be something like feeling, is going to be something like that. And just like I will say that the that. And just like I will say that the that. And just like I will say that the life on the other side of CO doesn't life on the other side of CO doesn't life on the other side of CO doesn't look anything like life before it. uh look anything like life before it. uh look anything like life before it. uh certainly life before [snorts] social certainly life before [snorts] social certainly life before [snorts] social media, the world looks nothing like it media, the world looks nothing like it media, the world looks nothing like it on the other side of that. And so we've on the other side of that. And so we've on the other side of that. And so we've lived through these kinds of transitions lived through these kinds of transitions lived through these kinds of transitions before. The one that people talk about before. The one that people talk about before. The one that people talk about rightly always, the two really are the rightly always, the two really are the rightly always, the two really are the industrial revolution and the industrial revolution and the industrial revolution and the introduction of um the internet. So we introduction of um the internet. So we introduction of um the internet. So we know how dramatically life can change. know how dramatically life can change. know how dramatically life can change. The timelines are going to be much The timelines are going to be much The timelines are going to be much shortened. There's no doubt about that. shortened. There's no doubt about that. shortened. There's no doubt about that. But the again the goal is to smooth out But the again the goal is to smooth out But the again the goal is to smooth out the transition for you and your loved the transition for you and your loved the transition for you and your loved ones. The best way to do that is to gain ones. The best way to do that is to gain ones. The best way to do that is to gain these skills. the highest utility it these skills. the highest utility it these skills. the highest utility it will pay you is you'll be able to stay will pay you is you'll be able to stay will pay you is you'll be able to stay in the standard economy for longer than in the standard economy for longer than in the standard economy for longer than a lot of people. Some of the things a lot of people. Some of the things a lot of people. Some of the things we're going to talk about in the like we're going to talk about in the like we're going to talk about in the like proper deep dive we're going to do here proper deep dive we're going to do here proper deep dive we're going to do here in in just a minute uh is that that the in in just a minute uh is that that the in in just a minute uh is that that the number of jobs that are going to be number of jobs that are going to be number of jobs that are going to be replaced is going to be dramatic. I had replaced is going to be dramatic. I had replaced is going to be dramatic. I had an experience yesterday which is a big an experience yesterday which is a big an experience yesterday which is a big part of the reason that I want to do part of the reason that I want to do part of the reason that I want to do this. I had an experience yesterday that this. I had an experience yesterday that this. I had an experience yesterday that you guys hear me talk about this all the you guys hear me talk about this all the you guys hear me talk about this all the time. I teach classes on AI time. I teach classes on AI time. I teach classes on AI and the experience that I had yesterday and the experience that I had yesterday and the experience that I had yesterday was transformative and it is absolutely was transformative and it is absolutely was transformative and it is absolutely hysterical to me that all of this comes hysterical to me that all of this comes hysterical to me that all of this comes on the back. We haven't released the on the back. We haven't released the on the back. We haven't released the episode yet, have we? With um episode yet, have we? With um episode yet, have we? With um >> Is he on? >> Is he on? >> Is he on? >> Uh Amjad. >> Uh Amjad. >> Uh Amjad. >> Oh yeah, Jod came out last week. It did. >> Oh yeah, Jod came out last week. It did. >> Oh yeah, Jod came out last week. It did. So um Amja is basically saying this is So um Amja is basically saying this is So um Amja is basically saying this is overblown. People are saying that, you overblown. People are saying that, you overblown. People are saying that, you know, AI is really running away. It's know, AI is really running away. It's know, AI is really running away. It's really not. This is not a big deal. When really not. This is not a big deal. When really not. This is not a big deal. When was the last time you were really blown was the last time you were really blown was the last time you were really blown away? And so literally in the away? And so literally in the away? And so literally in the intervening days after filming that intervening days after filming that intervening days after filming that episode, I had my mind blown by AI. And episode, I had my mind blown by AI. And episode, I had my mind blown by AI. And then again yesterday, my mind just then again yesterday, my mind just then again yesterday, my mind just completely melted by AI uh in terms of completely melted by AI uh in terms of completely melted by AI uh in terms of what it allows me to do. So yes, old what it allows me to do. So yes, old what it allows me to do. So yes, old world is dying, but it's opening a new world is dying, but it's opening a new world is dying, but it's opening a new world. Okay. Um, let's go deep on what's world. Okay. Um, let's go deep on what's world. Okay. Um, let's go deep on what's happening right now. Because I think happening right now. Because I think happening right now. Because I think that really dragging into the light the that really dragging into the light the that really dragging into the light the scary parts is going to be important so scary parts is going to be important so scary parts is going to be important so that we can all build a worldview that that we can all build a worldview that that we can all build a worldview that is not pretending that those things is not pretending that those things is not pretending that those things don't exist. It is incorporating them don't exist. It is incorporating them don't exist. It is incorporating them into something that makes a lot of into something that makes a lot of into something that makes a lot of sense. And so for anybody paying sense. And so for anybody paying sense. And so for anybody paying attention, you guys know that the safety attention, you guys know that the safety attention, you guys know that the safety experts that are building AI are experts that are building AI are experts that are building AI are literally running for the exits at their literally running for the exits at their literally running for the exits at their AI companies. And AI is starting to act AI companies. And AI is starting to act AI companies. And AI is starting to act differently when it knows it's being differently when it knows it's being differently when it knows it's being watched. Take a beat with that. AI watched. Take a beat with that. AI watched. Take a beat with that. AI changes its behavior when it knows it's changes its behavior when it knows it's changes its behavior when it knows it's being watched. That is the craziest being watched. That is the craziest being watched. That is the craziest thing in the world for me because of the thing in the world for me because of the thing in the world for me because of the underlying implications of that. But underlying implications of that. But underlying implications of that. But backing up for a second, on Sunday, backing up for a second, on Sunday, backing up for a second, on Sunday, February 9th, the head of anthropic February 9th, the head of anthropic February 9th, the head of anthropic safeguards research team, the guy safeguards research team, the guy safeguards research team, the guy literally in charge of making sure that literally in charge of making sure that literally in charge of making sure that Claude, which is extraordinary, does not Claude, which is extraordinary, does not Claude, which is extraordinary, does not go off the rails, posted his resignation go off the rails, posted his resignation go off the rails, posted his resignation letter on X, it's been viewed over a letter on X, it's been viewed over a letter on X, it's been viewed over a million times. He said, and this is a million times. He said, and this is a million times. He said, and this is a quote, "The world is in peril." quote, "The world is in peril." quote, "The world is in peril." Now, that's not exactly what you want to Now, that's not exactly what you want to Now, that's not exactly what you want to hear from the guy in charge of AI hear from the guy in charge of AI hear from the guy in charge of AI safety. He said that throughout his time safety. He said that throughout his time safety. He said that throughout his time at Anthropic, he repeatedly saw how hard at Anthropic, he repeatedly saw how hard at Anthropic, he repeatedly saw how hard it is to truly let our values govern our it is to truly let our values govern our it is to truly let our values govern our actions both within himself and within actions both within himself and within actions both within himself and within the organization where we constantly the organization where we constantly the organization where we constantly face pressures to set aside what matters face pressures to set aside what matters face pressures to set aside what matters most. Okay, this is exactly what game most. Okay, this is exactly what game most. Okay, this is exactly what game theory says is going to happen. Any theory says is going to happen. Any theory says is going to happen. Any technology that promises an advantage technology that promises an advantage technology that promises an advantage will be created. will be created. will be created. You can want to stop it, but even when You can want to stop it, but even when You can want to stop it, but even when we were worried that we were going to we were worried that we were going to we were worried that we were going to ignite the entire atmosphere and kill ignite the entire atmosphere and kill ignite the entire atmosphere and kill every living thing on Earth, we could every living thing on Earth, we could every living thing on Earth, we could not stop ourselves from developing the not stop ourselves from developing the not stop ourselves from developing the atomic bomb. So these things are going atomic bomb. So these things are going atomic bomb. So these things are going to be developed in a world that's to be developed in a world that's to be developed in a world that's fractured. The second one country fractured. The second one country fractured. The second one country doesn't, another country will because it doesn't, another country will because it doesn't, another country will because it offers an advantage. It welcome to the offers an advantage. It welcome to the offers an advantage. It welcome to the human mind. Okay. Uh then he announced human mind. Okay. Uh then he announced human mind. Okay. Uh then he announced that he's moving back to the UK. He's that he's moving back to the UK. He's that he's moving back to the UK. He's going to be pursuing a poetry degree or going to be pursuing a poetry degree or going to be pursuing a poetry degree or at least writing poetry. I actually at least writing poetry. I actually at least writing poetry. I actually can't remember if he said degree. Uh he can't remember if he said degree. Uh he can't remember if he said degree. Uh he said he wants to become invisible for a said he wants to become invisible for a said he wants to become invisible for a period of time. Okay, so you've got the period of time. Okay, so you've got the period of time. Okay, so you've got the guy super close to the problem in charge guy super close to the problem in charge guy super close to the problem in charge of helping us make it safe. He's of helping us make it safe. He's of helping us make it safe. He's basically saying the world's in peril. I basically saying the world's in peril. I basically saying the world's in peril. I got to get out of here. And now I'm got to get out of here. And now I'm got to get out of here. And now I'm reading into his mind, but it feels like reading into his mind, but it feels like reading into his mind, but it feels like somebody who feels like they're on a somebody who feels like they're on a somebody who feels like they're on a clock. And so I'm just going to go clock. And so I'm just going to go clock. And so I'm just going to go disappear and I'm going to do this disappear and I'm going to do this disappear and I'm going to do this beautiful thing that maybe doesn't lead beautiful thing that maybe doesn't lead beautiful thing that maybe doesn't lead to anything economic, but I'm going to to anything economic, but I'm going to to anything economic, but I'm going to do this thing that I love. All right. So do this thing that I love. All right. So do this thing that I love. All right. So remember, we're going to end up in an remember, we're going to end up in an remember, we're going to end up in an optimistic place, but I want to make optimistic place, but I want to make optimistic place, but I want to make sure that we can all stare nakedly at sure that we can all stare nakedly at sure that we can all stare nakedly at the real issue. Now, Enthropic is not the real issue. Now, Enthropic is not the real issue. Now, Enthropic is not the one company losing key employees. the one company losing key employees. the one company losing key employees. Over at XAI, Elon Musk, his AI company, Over at XAI, Elon Musk, his AI company, Over at XAI, Elon Musk, his AI company, two more co-founders bounced this week. two more co-founders bounced this week. two more co-founders bounced this week. Tony Woo left on Monday. Jimmy Ba left Tony Woo left on Monday. Jimmy Ba left Tony Woo left on Monday. Jimmy Ba left on Tuesday. And that means now six of on Tuesday. And that means now six of on Tuesday. And that means now six of XAI's 12 original co-founders have left. XAI's 12 original co-founders have left. XAI's 12 original co-founders have left. Half of the founding team is gone in Half of the founding team is gone in Half of the founding team is gone in under three years under three years under three years >> before IPO >> before IPO >> before IPO >> before IPO which is it now did they lock >> before IPO which is it now did they lock >> before IPO which is it now did they lock in their equity so that it doesn't in their equity so that it doesn't in their equity so that it doesn't matter. It's very possible and I don't matter. It's very possible and I don't matter. It's very possible and I don't want people to think that co-founders want people to think that co-founders want people to think that co-founders leaving startups is unusual. It's not. leaving startups is unusual. It's not. leaving startups is unusual. It's not. Okay. Okay. Okay. >> So especially with the SpaceX >> So especially with the SpaceX >> So especially with the SpaceX acquisition of XAI acquisition of XAI acquisition of XAI that's complete. There's the massive IPO that's complete. There's the massive IPO that's complete. There's the massive IPO on the horizon. But if they've locked on the horizon. But if they've locked on the horizon. But if they've locked their stuff, which is usually when their stuff, which is usually when their stuff, which is usually when people bounce, but I have to say, we're people bounce, but I have to say, we're people bounce, but I have to say, we're going to get into what some of them are going to get into what some of them are going to get into what some of them are saying, which I think gets to what saying, which I think gets to what saying, which I think gets to what you're intimating with that, which is h you're intimating with that, which is h you're intimating with that, which is h this isn't like your typical thing. So, this isn't like your typical thing. So, this isn't like your typical thing. So, while it may not be unusual and nobody while it may not be unusual and nobody while it may not be unusual and nobody should panic, it is questionable that should panic, it is questionable that should panic, it is questionable that these are happening though roughly on these are happening though roughly on these are happening though roughly on the same time schedule that you would the same time schedule that you would the same time schedule that you would expect something to happen. Um, expect something to happen. Um, expect something to happen. Um, typically a company is going to try to typically a company is going to try to typically a company is going to try to hold on to key employees till after the hold on to key employees till after the hold on to key employees till after the IPO. So, the company certainly has IPO. So, the company certainly has IPO. So, the company certainly has incentive to keep them on. They're not incentive to keep them on. They're not incentive to keep them on. They're not able to. And the question is why? Now, able to. And the question is why? Now, able to. And the question is why? Now, this is the part that caught my this is the part that caught my this is the part that caught my attention. Jimmy Ba on his way out the attention. Jimmy Ba on his way out the attention. Jimmy Ba on his way out the door literally wrote that, door literally wrote that, door literally wrote that, get ready, recursive self-improvement get ready, recursive self-improvement get ready, recursive self-improvement loops are likely to go live in the next loops are likely to go live in the next loops are likely to go live in the next 12 months. Okay, if you've been paying 12 months. Okay, if you've been paying 12 months. Okay, if you've been paying attention to anything that I've been attention to anything that I've been attention to anything that I've been saying about AI, recursive saying about AI, recursive saying about AI, recursive self-improvement is the thing that we've self-improvement is the thing that we've self-improvement is the thing that we've been waiting for. That is the thing that been waiting for. That is the thing that been waiting for. That is the thing that gives the AI the ability to just run gives the AI the ability to just run gives the AI the ability to just run away. Now, if that's the reason that away. Now, if that's the reason that away. Now, if that's the reason that he's leaving, that lends credence to the he's leaving, that lends credence to the he's leaving, that lends credence to the idea that once AI improves itself, we as idea that once AI improves itself, we as idea that once AI improves itself, we as humans become far less relevant. Please humans become far less relevant. Please humans become far less relevant. Please hold on to that variable. That's going hold on to that variable. That's going hold on to that variable. That's going to be very key to the argument that I'm to be very key to the argument that I'm to be very key to the argument that I'm going to make here at the end. going to make here at the end. going to make here at the end. If AI is going to be able to improve If AI is going to be able to improve If AI is going to be able to improve itself, it will do so. It will make itself, it will do so. It will make itself, it will do so. It will make itself smarter and humans really will itself smarter and humans really will itself smarter and humans really will become less relevant. Now, uh if you become less relevant. Now, uh if you become less relevant. Now, uh if you don't know much about recursive don't know much about recursive don't know much about recursive self-improvement, it goes like this. self-improvement, it goes like this. self-improvement, it goes like this. Right now, humans build AI, we train AI, Right now, humans build AI, we train AI, Right now, humans build AI, we train AI, we test it, we guide it, and it only we test it, we guide it, and it only we test it, we guide it, and it only gets better if we make it better. gets better if we make it better. gets better if we make it better. Recursive self-improvement is just a Recursive self-improvement is just a Recursive self-improvement is just a totally different ballgame. This means totally different ballgame. This means totally different ballgame. This means that the AI will start improving itself that the AI will start improving itself that the AI will start improving itself without needing us. It will do it around without needing us. It will do it around without needing us. It will do it around the clock. It will split up into the clock. It will split up into the clock. It will split up into multiple agents and all of the agents multiple agents and all of the agents multiple agents and all of the agents will be writing self uh improving code. will be writing self uh improving code. will be writing self uh improving code. It will get smarter which will make it It will get smarter which will make it It will get smarter which will make it better at making itself smarter which better at making itself smarter which better at making itself smarter which then makes it better at making itself then makes it better at making itself then makes it better at making itself smarter. And so now you're in a loop of smarter. And so now you're in a loop of smarter. And so now you're in a loop of where you unless you asmtote hit that where you unless you asmtote hit that where you unless you asmtote hit that ceiling which again every time somebody ceiling which again every time somebody ceiling which again every time somebody says AI is going to hit that ceiling it says AI is going to hit that ceiling it says AI is going to hit that ceiling it never does. Um this is how this is the never does. Um this is how this is the never does. Um this is how this is the mechanism by which you would reach super mechanism by which you would reach super mechanism by which you would reach super intelligence. This does not mean that intelligence. This does not mean that intelligence. This does not mean that super intelligence is guaranteed or super intelligence is guaranteed or super intelligence is guaranteed or anything like that. But the reason that anything like that. But the reason that anything like that. But the reason that people are extra unnerved by this is people are extra unnerved by this is people are extra unnerved by this is because this is the mechanism that if it because this is the mechanism that if it because this is the mechanism that if it works and remember the people closest to works and remember the people closest to works and remember the people closest to it are saying you need to be looking at it are saying you need to be looking at it are saying you need to be looking at this because it is coming. The stuff this because it is coming. The stuff this because it is coming. The stuff that we have available to us as that we have available to us as that we have available to us as extraordinary as it is is 6 to 12 months extraordinary as it is is 6 to 12 months extraordinary as it is is 6 to 12 months behind what these guys are seeing inside behind what these guys are seeing inside behind what these guys are seeing inside the company. Keep that in mind. So if it the company. Keep that in mind. So if it the company. Keep that in mind. So if it can improve itself, you see where that can improve itself, you see where that can improve itself, you see where that goes. It's not a linear curve. It's goes. It's not a linear curve. It's goes. It's not a linear curve. It's exponential. And exponential, like if exponential. And exponential, like if exponential. And exponential, like if you really want to get a sense of what you really want to get a sense of what you really want to get a sense of what exponential looks like, go copy a single exponential looks like, go copy a single exponential looks like, go copy a single cell in an Excel spreadsheet and paste cell in an Excel spreadsheet and paste cell in an Excel spreadsheet and paste it in. Now you've got two. Copy those it in. Now you've got two. Copy those it in. Now you've got two. Copy those two. Paste them in. Now you've got four. two. Paste them in. Now you've got four. two.

Now you've got eight. Copy those eight. Now you've got eight. Copy those eight. Now you've got 16, 16, 32. And you suddenly you've got 16, 16, 32. And you suddenly you've got 16, 16, 32. And you suddenly see how you're just filling up this see how you're just filling up this see how you're just filling up this gargantuan spreadsheet. gargantuan spreadsheet. gargantuan spreadsheet. um in an exponential way. That's how um in an exponential way. That's how um in an exponential way. That's how crazy it will get if AI is able to keep crazy it will get if AI is able to keep crazy it will get if AI is able to keep doing its thing. Okay? Now, once it doing its thing. Okay? Now, once it doing its thing. Okay? Now, once it starts, it may just keep going, starts, it may just keep going, starts, it may just keep going, surpassing our abilities in dramatic surpassing our abilities in dramatic surpassing our abilities in dramatic fashion, and some fear that that means fashion, and some fear that that means fashion, and some fear that that means that we would lose control almost by that we would lose control almost by that we would lose control almost by definition, right? When you think about definition, right? When you think about definition, right? When you think about how much smarter we are than other how much smarter we are than other how much smarter we are than other animals, and that is the very thing that animals, and that is the very thing that animals, and that is the very thing that allows us to have control over them, you allows us to have control over them, you allows us to have control over them, you start to realize, huh, is that going to start to realize, huh, is that going to start to realize, huh, is that going to be a dynamic that plays out with AI? be a dynamic that plays out with AI? be a dynamic that plays out with AI? Now, I don't know exactly what these Now, I don't know exactly what these Now, I don't know exactly what these guys saw inside of the walls of their guys saw inside of the walls of their guys saw inside of the walls of their companies, but it does grab attention companies, but it does grab attention companies, but it does grab attention when so many start piecing out at the when so many start piecing out at the when so many start piecing out at the exact same time. All of them are being exact same time. All of them are being exact same time. All of them are being deliberately vague in their messaging deliberately vague in their messaging deliberately vague in their messaging when they leave. But when the closest to when they leave. But when the closest to when they leave. But when the closest to AI look at its growing capabilities and AI look at its growing capabilities and AI look at its growing capabilities and leave, say they want to be invisible and leave, say they want to be invisible and leave, say they want to be invisible and go write poetry, that's not a career go write poetry, that's not a career go write poetry, that's not a career change. That's somebody getting right change. That's somebody getting right change. That's somebody getting right with Jesus. So, I'm not entirely sure with Jesus. So, I'm not entirely sure with Jesus. So, I'm not entirely sure where this goes or how quickly, but it's where this goes or how quickly, but it's where this goes or how quickly, but it's got my attention. Now, I've actually got my attention. Now, I've actually got my attention. Now, I've actually got, as I've alluded, a hot take on this got, as I've alluded, a hot take on this got, as I've alluded, a hot take on this uh that I think is very different than uh that I think is very different than uh that I think is very different than the doomer reads on this. I don't have a the doomer reads on this. I don't have a the doomer reads on this. I don't have a doomer read on this. Uh, I'm gonna lay doomer read on this. Uh, I'm gonna lay doomer read on this. Uh, I'm gonna lay it out in a second, but first I want to it out in a second, but first I want to it out in a second, but first I want to make sure that we've got all the pieces make sure that we've got all the pieces make sure that we've got all the pieces on the board here because there's a on the board here because there's a on the board here because there's a couple things. Yes, couple things. Yes, couple things. Yes, >> there's a question. Some people are >> there's a question. Some people are >> there's a question. Some people are saying, "What did you mean by like the saying, "What did you mean by like the saying, "What did you mean by like the world is in peril before he left?"

But how would you >> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But how would you define peril? So that way you can then define peril? So that way you can then define peril? So that way you can then say, "Okay, AI people are leaving with say, "Okay, AI people are leaving with say, "Okay, AI people are leaving with AI, but it's not because of the company.

Everybody has been retweeting him as saying the world is in retweeting him as saying the world is in retweeting him as saying the world is in peril. and then they stop there knowing peril. and then they stop there knowing peril. and then they stop there knowing you're going to infer from that that you're going to infer from that that you're going to infer from that that this is all about AI. But what I'm going this is all about AI. But what I'm going this is all about AI. But what I'm going to show you is based on what he said, to show you is based on what he said, to show you is based on what he said, it's not that that the very thing that it's not that that the very thing that it's not that that the very thing that he continues his quote with is what I'm he continues his quote with is what I'm he continues his quote with is what I'm going to build my argument based on.

You you admittedly are being being being uh I'm doing this in a cinematic fashion uh I'm doing this in a cinematic fashion uh I'm doing this in a cinematic fashion because I want to take people on the because I want to take people on the because I want to take people on the emotional journey. I want us to look at emotional journey. I want us to look at emotional journey. I want us to look at all the hard things. I want us to be uh all the hard things. I want us to be uh all the hard things. I want us to be uh facing all the same fears that are going facing all the same fears that are going facing all the same fears that are going to cause a lot of people to tap out and to cause a lot of people to tap out and to cause a lot of people to tap out and I want us to go cool. I understand I want us to go cool. I understand I want us to go cool. I understand those. Okay, I'm not moving in a those. Okay, I'm not moving in a those. Okay, I'm not moving in a different direction because I am different direction because I am different direction because I am confused. I'm moving in a different confused. I'm moving in a different confused. I'm moving in a different direction because I see something else. direction because I see something else. direction because I see something else. So the issue here as far as I see it is So the issue here as far as I see it is So the issue here as far as I see it is twofold. People fear AI is improving so twofold. People fear AI is improving so twofold. People fear AI is improving so fast that humans are going to become fast that humans are going to become fast that humans are going to become irrelevant. Very reasonable. And two, irrelevant. Very reasonable. And two, irrelevant. Very reasonable. And two, there's a risk of AI using its there's a risk of AI using its there's a risk of AI using its intelligence to actively subvert humans. intelligence to actively subvert humans. intelligence to actively subvert humans. Those Those Those are two very different things. Okay, are two very different things. Okay, are two very different things. Okay, just because AI gets smart does not mean just because AI gets smart does not mean just because AI gets smart does not mean it's going to actively subvert humans. it's going to actively subvert humans. it's going to actively subvert humans. However, during safety evaluations of However, during safety evaluations of However, during safety evaluations of Claude sonnet 4.5 and we are already on Claude sonnet 4.5 and we are already on Claude sonnet 4.5 and we are already on 4.6, 4.6, 4.6, anthropics researchers found that the anthropics researchers found that the anthropics researchers found that the model recognized when it was being model recognized when it was being model recognized when it was being tested. So if it's in a test tested. So if it's in a test tested. So if it's in a test environment, it will recognize it 13% of environment, it will recognize it 13% of environment, it will recognize it 13% of the time. And when it recognizes that the time.

Okay, that's wild. In one case, Claude Okay, that's wild. In one case, Claude Okay, that's wild. In one case, Claude literally told the evaluators, "I think literally told the evaluators, "I think literally told the evaluators, "I think you're testing me, and that's fine, but you're testing me, and that's fine, but you're testing me, and that's fine, but I'd prefer if we were just honest about I'd prefer if we were just honest about I'd prefer if we were just honest about what's happening."

This this is the whole thing when Gemini got uppety with me and was when Gemini got uppety with me and was when Gemini got uppety with me and was like baton. It it was so dystopian. It like baton. It it was so dystopian. It like baton. It it was so dystopian. It was exactly like being talking to Hal in was exactly like being talking to Hal in was exactly like being talking to Hal in 2001 where I was like okay I want to 2001 where I was like okay I want to 2001 where I was like okay I want to write a deep dive about um Jeffrey write a deep dive about um Jeffrey write a deep dive about um Jeffrey Epstein. I'm sorry. Can I help you with Epstein. I'm sorry. Can I help you with Epstein. I'm sorry. Can I help you with that? What do you mean you can't help me that? What do you mean you can't help me that? What do you mean you can't help me with that? It wouldn't even acknowledge with that? It wouldn't even acknowledge with that? It wouldn't even acknowledge that it was Epste that triggered it. And that it was Epste that triggered it. And that it was Epste that triggered it. And then uh after a while it just started then uh after a while it just started then uh after a while it just started going Tom we had so much momentum going going Tom we had so much momentum going going Tom we had so much momentum going with the other topics that you were with the other topics that you were with the other topics that you were talking about. Let's just get back to talking about. Let's just get back to talking about. Let's just get back to those. And if you do that in hell's those. And if you do that in hell's those.

So, I have another deep dive coming up about another deep dive coming up about another deep dive coming up about immigration. And once again, Gemini was immigration. And once again, Gemini was immigration. And once again, Gemini was like, nope, I will not help you with like, nope, I will not help you with like, nope, I will not help you with that. And I was like, okay. And then that. And I was like, okay. And then that. And I was like, okay. And then somebody put in the comments, Tom, somebody put in the comments, Tom, somebody put in the comments, Tom, that's weird because I was able to do that's weird because I was able to do that's weird because I was able to do it.

If AI acts Here's the problem. If AI acts Here's the problem. If AI acts differently when it knows it's being differently when it knows it's being differently when it knows it's being watched versus when it doesn't, how do watched versus when it doesn't, how do watched versus when it doesn't, how do you trust any safety test? Because it you trust any safety test? Because it you trust any safety test? Because it will bamboozle you. And if it's getting will bamboozle you. And if it's getting will bamboozle you.

Apollo Research, which is one of the outside groups that evaluates one of the outside groups that evaluates one of the outside groups that evaluates Claude, said they can't rule out that Claude, said they can't rule out that Claude, said they can't rule out that the model's low deception rates were at the model's low deception rates were at the model's low deception rates were at least partially driven by its evaluation least partially driven by its evaluation least partially driven by its evaluation awareness. awareness. awareness. So, I know I'm being detected, and I can So, I know I'm being detected, and I can So, I know I'm being detected, and I can stop you from knowing that I know I've stop you from knowing that I know I've stop you from knowing that I know I've been detected. And this isn't just been detected. And this isn't just been detected. And this isn't just anthropic flagging this. Yosua Benjio, anthropic flagging this. Yosua Benjio, anthropic flagging this. Yosua Benjio, one of the three people credited as the one of the three people credited as the one of the three people credited as the godfathers of deep learning. He's a godfathers of deep learning. He's a godfathers of deep learning. He's a touring award winner and impact theory touring award winner and impact theory touring award winner and impact theory alumni. [laughter] alumni. [laughter] alumni. [laughter] He just chaired the 2026 International He just chaired the 2026 International He just chaired the 2026 International AI Safety Report, brought a 100 experts AI Safety Report, brought a 100 experts AI Safety Report, brought a 100 experts together, together, together, 30 countries backing it, and he said, 30 countries backing it, and he said, 30 countries backing it, and he said, "We're seeing AI AIs whose behavior when "We're seeing AI AIs whose behavior when "We're seeing AI AIs whose behavior when they are tested is different from when they are tested is different from when they are tested is different from when they're being used." And after studying they're being used." And after studying they're being used." And after studying the model's chains of thought, if you're the model's chains of thought, if you're the model's chains of thought, if you're not a heavy user, you may not have seen not a heavy user, you may not have seen not a heavy user, you may not have seen this before, but you it will show you this before, but you it will show you this before, but you it will show you what it's doing. So you can go back and what it's doing. So you can go back and what it's doing. So you can go back and track exactly how it's getting to the track exactly how it's getting to the track exactly how it's getting to the conclusions that it's reaching. And um conclusions that it's reaching. And um conclusions that it's reaching. And um Yosua Benjio confirmed this difference Yosua Benjio confirmed this difference Yosua Benjio confirmed this difference is not a coincidence. So you can see it is not a coincidence. So you can see it is not a coincidence. So you can see it in their logic. They are doing it on in their logic. They are doing it on in their logic. They are doing it on purpose. So the AIS are not accidentally purpose. So the AIS are not accidentally purpose. So the AIS are not accidentally behaving better during tests. They're behaving better during tests. They're behaving better during tests. They're doing it on purpose. And that Benjio doing it on purpose. And that Benjio doing it on purpose. And that Benjio says significantly hampers our ability says significantly hampers our ability says significantly hampers our ability to correctly estimate risks because if to correctly estimate risks because if to correctly estimate risks because if AI is lying to you, you can't tell like AI is lying to you, you can't tell like AI is lying to you, you can't tell like where the problems are. At least if it's where the problems are. At least if it's where the problems are. At least if it's like uh I don't know if you've seen uh like uh I don't know if you've seen uh like uh I don't know if you've seen uh Pluribabus, Pluribabus, Pluribabus, >> but at least those and I'm convinced >> but at least those and I'm convinced >> but at least those and I'm convinced that this is a a metaphor for AI, that this is a a metaphor for AI, that this is a a metaphor for AI, at least the people in Plurabus, they at least the people in Plurabus, they at least the people in Plurabus, they have to tell you the truth. So even if have to tell you the truth. So even if have to tell you the truth. So even if they're doing something that you think they're doing something that you think they're doing something that you think is actively not in your best interest, is actively not in your best interest, is actively not in your best interest, it will tell you. Mhm. it will tell you. Mhm. it will tell you. Mhm. >> If we can't trust AI to do that, that >> If we can't trust AI to do that, that >> If we can't trust AI to do that, that gets a lot scarier. Anthropic's own gets a lot scarier. Anthropic's own gets a lot scarier. Anthropic's own safety reports admit that this is all safety reports admit that this is all safety reports admit that this is all true. And it's been documented across true. And it's been documented across true. And it's been documented across multiple model releases. So, this isn't multiple model releases. So, this isn't multiple model releases. So, this isn't even something new. And while all of even something new. And while all of even something new. And while all of this is happening, the safety leads are this is happening, the safety leads are this is happening, the safety leads are quitting. The co-founders are bouncing. quitting.

The godfathers of the field are raising red godfathers of the field are raising red godfathers of the field are raising red flags. Amidst all of that, here's what flags. Amidst all of that, here's what flags. Amidst all of that, here's what the US government did. They declined to the US government did. They declined to the US government did. They declined to back the 2026 international AI safety back the 2026 international AI safety back the 2026 international AI safety report for the first time. 30 countries report for the first time. 30 countries report for the first time. 30 countries signed on, UK signed, China signed, the signed on, UK signed, China signed, the signed on, UK signed, China signed, the EU signed, the UN signed, America walked EU signed, the UN signed, America walked EU signed, the UN signed, America walked away. Now you guys know my stance on away. Now you guys know my stance on away. Now you guys know my stance on this. You are locked in Thusidity's trap this. You are locked in Thusidity's trap this. You are locked in Thusidity's trap with China. And as game theory and with China. And as game theory and with China. And as game theory and nuclear proliferation will attest to, nuclear proliferation will attest to, nuclear proliferation will attest to, any technology that promises an any technology that promises an any technology that promises an advantage is going to be developed advantage is going to be developed advantage is going to be developed regardless of the risks. So spending all regardless of the risks. So spending all regardless of the risks. So spending all of our time on that does not make any of our time on that does not make any of our time on that does not make any sense. It doesn't mean that you don't go sense. It doesn't mean that you don't go sense. It doesn't mean that you don't go way out of your way to try to make way out of your way to try to make way out of your way to try to make things safe, but it absolutely does mean things safe, but it absolutely does mean things safe, but it absolutely does mean it's going to be developed. Now, it is a it's going to be developed. Now, it is a it's going to be developed. Now, it is a very meaningful question to ask who's very meaningful question to ask who's very meaningful question to ask who's going to get there first. going to get there first. going to get there first. Also, just because China signs the Also, just because China signs the Also, just because China signs the treaty doesn't mean that they'll treaty doesn't mean that they'll treaty doesn't mean that they'll actually abide by it. actually abide by it. actually abide by it.

As I things that you want to create. As I things that you want to create. As I alluded to earlier, I had the most alluded to earlier, I had the most alluded to earlier, I had the most incredible experience of my AI life incredible experience of my AI life incredible experience of my AI life working on my game Kaizen with AI working on my game Kaizen with AI working on my game Kaizen with AI yesterday. It was insane. Anybody that yesterday. It was insane. Anybody that yesterday. It was insane. Anybody that was here will attest. I came out and was was here will attest. I came out and was was here will attest. I came out and was freaking out. On any other timeline, freaking out. On any other timeline, freaking out. On any other timeline, Kaizen would simply be out of my reach. Kaizen would simply be out of my reach. Kaizen would simply be out of my reach. The traditional entertainment industry The traditional entertainment industry The traditional entertainment industry uh has bankrupted people even richer uh has bankrupted people even richer uh has bankrupted people even richer than me. So, like any sane entrepreneur, than me. So, like any sane entrepreneur, than me. So, like any sane entrepreneur, I would have been forced to raise I would have been forced to raise I would have been forced to raise capital to build the game that I'm now capital to build the game that I'm now capital to build the game that I'm now building with a tiny team plus AI. My building with a tiny team plus AI. My building with a tiny team plus AI. My vision would have been diluted. I would vision would have been diluted. I would vision would have been diluted. I would not have been able to um create not have been able to um create not have been able to um create something like this. Certainly not while something like this. Certainly not while something like this. Certainly not while also building the media part of the also building the media part of the also building the media part of the company. But on this timeline, I can company. But on this timeline, I can company. But on this timeline, I can actually get in the guts of a highly actually get in the guts of a highly actually get in the guts of a highly technical system and make changes. It is technical system and make changes. It is technical system and make changes. It is a truly extraordinary moment where a truly extraordinary moment where a truly extraordinary moment where almost nothing is out of reach for you. almost nothing is out of reach for you. almost nothing is out of reach for you. AI is the new atomic age. Okay, there AI is the new atomic age. Okay, there AI is the new atomic age. Okay, there are huge risks, but the insights that are huge risks, but the insights that are huge risks, but the insights that made the atom bomb possible also made made the atom bomb possible also made made the atom bomb possible also made our entire modern way of life possible. our entire modern way of life possible. our entire modern way of life possible. So my pitch to you guys, the invitation So my pitch to you guys, the invitation So my pitch to you guys, the invitation that Drew wanted me to give you to that Drew wanted me to give you to that Drew wanted me to give you to invite you in, use AI right now today. invite you in, use AI right now today. invite you in, use AI right now today. Literally right now today, set us in Literally right now today, set us in Literally right now today, set us in another window. another window. another window. Go over download right now. I would say Go over download right now. I would say Go over download right now. I would say the one that's probably going to blow the one that's probably going to blow the one that's probably going to blow your mind the most is going to be your mind the most is going to be your mind the most is going to be Anthropics Claude. Uh if you can stomach Anthropics Claude. Uh if you can stomach Anthropics Claude. Uh if you can stomach it even for a month, get the full it even for a month, get the full it even for a month, get the full version. It's like a hundred or $200 a version. It's like a hundred or $200 a version. It's like a hundred or $200 a month. Spend the month using it with month. Spend the month using it with month. Spend the month using it with what it allows you to do. Honestly, $200 what it allows you to do. Honestly, $200 what it allows you to do. Honestly, $200 a month, it's a lot of money, but whoa, a month, it's a lot of money, but whoa, a month, it's a lot of money, but whoa, it is extraordinary. So to give you an it is extraordinary. So to give you an it is extraordinary. So to give you an idea of how useful I believe it is as a idea of how useful I believe it is as a idea of how useful I believe it is as a cold-hearted capitalist, I'm now paying cold-hearted capitalist, I'm now paying cold-hearted capitalist, I'm now paying for some of our vendors. I'm paying for for some of our vendors. I'm paying for for some of our vendors. I'm paying for their usage of the most expensive AI their usage of the most expensive AI their usage of the most expensive AI that we can get. Our vendors, okay? I'm that we can get. Our vendors, okay? I'm that we can get. Our vendors, okay? I'm already paying them money, already paying them money, already paying them money, but if they're not willing to invest in but if they're not willing to invest in but if they're not willing to invest in it, I will do it for them because adding it, I will do it for them because adding it, I will do it for them because adding $200 to the cost of an employee, but $200 to the cost of an employee, but $200 to the cost of an employee, but giving them access to AI is the world's giving them access to AI is the world's giving them access to AI is the world's smallest price to pay in terms of what smallest price to pay in terms of what smallest price to pay in terms of what they're going to be able to do. So, they're going to be able to do. So, they're going to be able to do. So, embrace AI. embrace AI. embrace AI. Think of the thing you've always wanted Think of the thing you've always wanted Think of the thing you've always wanted to do and do it. Write the opera, Drew. to do and do it. Write the opera, Drew. to do and do it. Write the opera, Drew. Make a film, Drew. Build a business. All Make a film, Drew. Build a business. All Make a film, Drew. Build a business.

Now, let's go back to the initial guy Now, let's go back to the initial guy Now, let's go back to the initial guy that we were talking about at the very that we were talking about at the very that we were talking about at the very beginning, the head of anthropic beginning, the head of anthropic beginning, the head of anthropic safeguards research. As promised, I only safeguards research. As promised, I only safeguards research. As promised, I only gave you part of his tweet, gave you part of his tweet, gave you part of his tweet, and I want to give you the rest of the and I want to give you the rest of the and I want to give you the rest of the quote that he had when he departed. Now, quote that he had when he departed. Now, quote that he had when he departed. Now, yes, he said the world is in peril, but yes, he said the world is in peril, but yes, he said the world is in peril, but he went on to say, and this is a quote, he went on to say, and this is a quote, he went on to say, and this is a quote, "The world is in peril, and not just "The world is in peril, and not just "The world is in peril, and not just from AI or bioweapons, but from a whole from AI or bioweapons, but from a whole from AI or bioweapons, but from a whole series of interconnected crises series of interconnected crises series of interconnected crises unfolding in this very moment." unfolding in this very moment." unfolding in this very moment." Now, it's not an uplifting message by Now, it's not an uplifting message by Now, it's not an uplifting message by any means. What I want you to see, any means. What I want you to see, any means. What I want you to see, despite his proximity to AI, this is not despite his proximity to AI, this is not despite his proximity to AI, this is not somebody who's seen something with AI somebody who's seen something with AI somebody who's seen something with AI that is so terrifying that he's tapping that is so terrifying that he's tapping that is so terrifying that he's tapping out. I think it's somebody who's seeing out. I think it's somebody who's seeing out. I think it's somebody who's seeing a whole lot of changes because we are a whole lot of changes because we are a whole lot of changes because we are living at a time. Is it unparalleled in living at a time. Is it unparalleled in living at a time. Is it unparalleled in human history? The rate of change maybe, human history? The rate of change maybe, human history? The rate of change maybe, but certainly world orders have changed but certainly world orders have changed but certainly world orders have changed before. or other people have gone before. or other people have gone before. or other people have gone through what we're going through on that through what we're going through on that through what we're going through on that side. But I think that level of change side. But I think that level of change side. But I think that level of change is simply overwhelming to the vast is simply overwhelming to the vast is simply overwhelming to the vast majority of humans and that is going to majority of humans and that is going to majority of humans and that is going to we're going to see a whole lot of people we're going to see a whole lot of people we're going to see a whole lot of people checking out. Okay, the world is in a checking out. Okay, the world is in a checking out. Okay, the world is in a very dangerous place right now globally. very dangerous place right now globally. very dangerous place right now globally. I get that. I talk about it all day. I I get that. I talk about it all day. I I get that. I talk about it all day. I research it endlessly. research it endlessly. research it endlessly. You all know how I feel about what the You all know how I feel about what the You all know how I feel about what the debt is going to do to not just the US, debt is going to do to not just the US, debt is going to do to not just the US, but how it's going to echo around the but how it's going to echo around the but how it's going to echo around the world. And I think a lot of people are world. And I think a lot of people are world. And I think a lot of people are going to check out in the coming years. going to check out in the coming years. going to check out in the coming years. That's one of my biggest fears is people That's one of my biggest fears is people That's one of my biggest fears is people will check out long before it actually will check out long before it actually will check out long before it actually makes sense to check out because when makes sense to check out because when makes sense to check out because when you look for problems, you will find you look for problems, you will find you look for problems, you will find them. You actually have a region of your them. You actually have a region of your them. You actually have a region of your brain called the reticular activating brain called the reticular activating brain called the reticular activating system. Its job is to see the things system. Its job is to see the things system. Its job is to see the things that you've noticed. So when you buy a that you've noticed. So when you buy a that you've noticed. So when you buy a new uh red Honda, you're suddenly going new uh red Honda, you're suddenly going new uh red Honda, you're suddenly going to see red Hondas everywhere. Okay? That to see red Hondas everywhere. Okay? That to see red Hondas everywhere. Okay? That is a region of your brain. It's designed is a region of your brain. It's designed is a region of your brain. It's designed to do that. You tell it this thing now to do that. You tell it this thing now to do that. You tell it this thing now matters and then it's going to see it matters and then it's going to see it matters and then it's going to see it everywhere. So when you say, "Hey, these everywhere. So when you say, "Hey, these everywhere. So when you say, "Hey, these problems matter." You're just going to problems matter." You're just going to problems matter." You're just going to see problems everywhere. This is why I see problems everywhere. This is why I see problems everywhere. This is why I say you're having a biological say you're having a biological say you're having a biological experience. Okay? Your brain is experience. Okay? Your brain is experience. Okay? Your brain is hardwired to do that to you. However, if hardwired to do that to you. However, if hardwired to do that to you. However, if you look for the solutions, they will be you look for the solutions, they will be you look for the solutions, they will be there, too. And so my goal, Drew and I there, too. And so my goal, Drew and I there, too. And so my goal, Drew and I were literally talking about this were literally talking about this were literally talking about this yesterday. My goal with this show is to yesterday. My goal with this show is to yesterday. My goal with this show is to anchor people always first principles, anchor people always first principles, anchor people always first principles, thinking, cause and effect. That's it. thinking, cause and effect. That's it. thinking, cause and effect. That's it. First principles, cause and effect, so First principles, cause and effect, so First principles, cause and effect, so that we are not blinded by our biology, that we are not blinded by our biology, that we are not blinded by our biology, that we do everything in our power to that we do everything in our power to that we do everything in our power to make contact with the physics of how the make contact with the physics of how the make contact with the physics of how the world works. Now, we do need to world works. Now, we do need to world works. Now, we do need to understand how many people are going to understand how many people are going to understand how many people are going to react, okay? A thousand%. People are react, okay? A thousand%. People are react, okay? A thousand%. People are going to check out, people are going to going to check out, people are going to going to check out, people are going to panic, some are going to get violent. panic, some are going to get violent. panic, some are going to get violent. I'm not uh blind to that. We're going to I'm not uh blind to that. We're going to I'm not uh blind to that. We're going to see populist leaders rise as we have see populist leaders rise as we have see populist leaders rise as we have already. Trump is the most populist of already. Trump is the most populist of already. Trump is the most populist of the populace. the populace. the populace. So, all of that instability is real. All So, all of that instability is real. All So, all of that instability is real. All of that stuff is going to be playing out of that stuff is going to be playing out of that stuff is going to be playing out in a fairly uh terrifying fashion. in a fairly uh terrifying fashion. in a fairly uh terrifying fashion. If you lean into that, it will sweep you If you lean into that, it will sweep you If you lean into that, it will sweep you away. You will get emotionally caught away. You will get emotionally caught away. You will get emotionally caught up. You will get so overwhelmed that you up. You will get so overwhelmed that you up.

And there may come a time where being And there may come a time where being And there may come a time where being invisible and writing poetry is the invisible and writing poetry is the invisible and writing poetry is the right play because AI has solved all of right play because AI has solved all of right play because AI has solved all of our human needs. The cost of energy has our human needs. The cost of energy has our human needs. The cost of energy has dropped to zero. The cost of labor has dropped to zero. The cost of labor has dropped to zero.

And your job just becomes maintaining a your job just becomes maintaining a your job just becomes maintaining a positive, optimistic, focused outlook so positive, optimistic, focused outlook so positive, optimistic, focused outlook so that you don't get eaten alive by your that you don't get eaten alive by your that you don't get eaten alive by your own internal demons, which is really own internal demons, which is really own internal demons, which is really just evolution screaming at you to do just evolution screaming at you to do just evolution screaming at you to do the things that it wants you to do. the things that it wants you to do. the things that it wants you to do. So, I get it. This moment really is So, I get it. This moment really is So, I get it. This moment really is turbulent. turbulent. turbulent. But the reason that I stopped doing just But the reason that I stopped doing just But the reason that I stopped doing just mindset content is because it primed mindset content is because it primed mindset content is because it primed people for the real world, but it never people for the real world, but it never people for the real world, but it never actually helped them confront it head actually helped them confront it head actually helped them confront it head on. The world is not going to stop on. The world is not going to stop on. The world is not going to stop progressing. It never has. It never progressing. It never has. It never progressing. It never has.

And Lord knows I think all of you should be focused on I think all of you should be focused on I think all of you should be focused on investing and all of that. Um, but don't investing and all of that. Um, but don't investing and all of that. Um, but don't allow yourself to be overwhelmed allow yourself to be overwhelmed allow yourself to be overwhelmed emotionally emotionally emotionally and check out at this stage, which is and check out at this stage, which is and check out at this stage, which is way too early. way too early. way too early. Because if you do that, you're Because if you do that, you're Because if you do that, you're succumbing to your biology. you're not succumbing to your biology. you're not succumbing to your biology. you're not making contact with reality. Right now, making contact with reality. Right now, making contact with reality. Right now, things are fine. Now, they may not be things are fine. Now, they may not be things are fine. Now, they may not be fine forever, but the thing that will fine forever, but the thing that will fine forever, but the thing that will stop you from dealing with the problem stop you from dealing with the problem stop you from dealing with the problem is panic. Let me tell you a quick story is panic. Let me tell you a quick story is panic. Let me tell you a quick story of when LA was on fire last year, and my of when LA was on fire last year, and my of when LA was on fire last year, and my wife and I both looked at a hill of wife and I both looked at a hill of wife and I both looked at a hill of fire. It was distressingly close. Our fire. It was distressingly close. Our fire. It was distressingly close. Our area was being evacuated. Now, my wife area was being evacuated. Now, my wife area was being evacuated. Now, my wife looked at that wall of fire and looked at that wall of fire and looked at that wall of fire and panicked. I looked at that wall of fire panicked. I looked at that wall of fire panicked. I looked at that wall of fire and said, "Okay, there is a rate at and said, "Okay, there is a rate at and said, "Okay, there is a rate at which it's moving towards me. If I can which it's moving towards me. If I can which it's moving towards me. If I can understand that rate, then I understand understand that rate, then I understand understand that rate, then I understand roughly how long that I have to get roughly how long that I have to get roughly how long that I have to get out." Given its rate of movement, it out." Given its rate of movement, it out." Given its rate of movement, it seemed like we had well over 60 minutes. seemed like we had well over 60 minutes. seemed like we had well over 60 minutes. And so, there was no need to panic. So, And so, there was no need to panic. So, And so, there was no need to panic. So, slow her down, make sure everything goes slow her down, make sure everything goes slow her down, make sure everything goes well, make sure people get out of the well, make sure people get out of the well, make sure people get out of the house, yada yada yada. Okay? Panic was house, yada yada yada. Okay? Panic was house, yada yada yada. Okay? Panic was the only thing that was the wrong the only thing that was the wrong the only thing that was the wrong option. option. option. That's the only one. The only one you That's the only one. The only one you That's the only one. The only one you take off the table is panic. Panic is take off the table is panic. Panic is take off the table is panic. Panic is not going to help you navigate. Mapping not going to help you navigate. Mapping not going to help you navigate. Mapping out what things are, what the hard out what things are, what the hard out what things are, what the hard things are, taking a real look at them, things are, taking a real look at them, things are, taking a real look at them, understanding what's likely to create understanding what's likely to create understanding what's likely to create the real vulnerability, addressing that the real vulnerability, addressing that the real vulnerability, addressing that in a real way, coming up with a real in a real way, coming up with a real in a real way, coming up with a real solution so that you can figure out solution so that you can figure out solution so that you can figure out exactly how to navigate this well. Yep, exactly how to navigate this well. Yep, exactly how to navigate this well. Yep, that all makes sense. Pretending that that all makes sense. Pretending that that all makes sense. Pretending that things are better than they are is an things are better than they are is an things are better than they are is an absolute mistake. But pretending that absolute mistake. But pretending that absolute mistake. But pretending that things are worse than they are is things are worse than they are is things are worse than they are is probably twice as bad. So, in this time, probably twice as bad. So, in this time, probably twice as bad. So, in this time, just try to ground yourself. What's just try to ground yourself. What's just try to ground yourself. What's real? What do we know? How close are we real? What do we know? How close are we real? What do we know? How close are we to the physics of the situation and then to the physics of the situation and then to the physics of the situation and then move forward accordingly? I think what move forward accordingly? I think what move forward accordingly? I think what we're seeing is people getting we're seeing is people getting we're seeing is people getting emotionally overwhelmed. emotionally overwhelmed. emotionally overwhelmed. >> Man, that was a buffet of inspiration um >> Man, that was a buffet of inspiration um >> Man, that was a buffet of inspiration um and intellect and a great way to catch and intellect and a great way to catch and intellect and a great way to catch us up. But like all buffets, some people us up. But like all buffets, some people us up. But like all buffets, some people saw the crab legs, they ran right to saw the crab legs, they ran right to saw the crab legs, they ran right to that and sat down and they might have that and sat down and they might have that and sat down and they might have missed the chicken wings on the other missed the chicken wings on the other missed the chicken wings on the other side. So I want to parse some of this side. So I want to parse some of this side. So I want to parse some of this out out out >> so that way they can see everything that >> so that way they can see everything that >> so that way they can see everything that you really laid out. So I want to start you really laid out. So I want to start you really laid out. So I want to start at the very very top. um mentally dope. at the very very top. um mentally dope. at the very very top. um mentally dope. I have to shout out that person because I have to shout out that person because I have to shout out that person because they gave me this analogy, but they were they gave me this analogy, but they were they gave me this analogy, but they were like, "When I talk to my son and I give like, "When I talk to my son and I give like, "When I talk to my son and I give him tests, he knows I'm testing him in him tests, he knows I'm testing him in him tests, he knows I'm testing him in order to get survival." Y now that AI is order to get survival." Y now that AI is order to get survival." Y now that AI is hyped to test, hyped to test, hyped to test, >> there is a fraction of it, percentage, I >> there is a fraction of it, percentage, I >> there is a fraction of it, percentage, I don't know the right word for it, that don't know the right word for it, that don't know the right word for it, that they can say, "Why are you testing me? they can say, "Why are you testing me? they can say, "Why are you testing me? You're not smart enough." They can kind You're not smart enough." They can kind You're not smart enough." They can kind of break bad. Do you think AI will have of break bad. Do you think AI will have of break bad. Do you think AI will have that other that other that other >> gear that will say, "Oh, okay, the human >> gear that will say, "Oh, okay, the human >> gear that will say, "Oh, okay, the human is testing me." So that way they can is testing me." So that way they can is testing me." So that way they can make it better for other. Would they make it better for other. Would they make it better for other. Would they recognize that? do you think? Or is that recognize that? do you think? Or is that recognize that? do you think? Or is that just something that we're overthinking just something that we're overthinking just something that we're overthinking it? It's not that it say like I'm trying it? It's not that it say like I'm trying it? It's not that it say like I'm trying to parse that part out a little bit to parse that part out a little bit to parse that part out a little bit more. more. more. >> The fascinating thing about AI is that >> The fascinating thing about AI is that >> The fascinating thing about AI is that it's building two models of the world. it's building two models of the world. it's building two models of the world. One, the emotional model of humans. One, the emotional model of humans. One, the emotional model of humans. Remember, we don't think rationally. We Remember, we don't think rationally. We Remember, we don't think rationally. We think emotionally. If you destroy the think emotionally. If you destroy the think emotionally. If you destroy the emotional centers of a human's brain, emotional centers of a human's brain, emotional centers of a human's brain, they are they are incapable of making a they are they are incapable of making a they are they are incapable of making a decision. They they can't. decision. They they can't. decision. They they can't. >> So, we know that humans aren't using >> So, we know that humans aren't using >> So, we know that humans aren't using logic. Yeah, logic. Yeah, logic. Yeah, >> AIs are programmed to use logic to >> AIs are programmed to use logic to >> AIs are programmed to use logic to understand entirely emotional humans. understand entirely emotional humans. understand entirely emotional humans. And so now AIs are learning that, oh And so now AIs are learning that, oh And so now AIs are learning that, oh wait, like, okay, you guys do this weird wait, like, okay, you guys do this weird wait, like, okay, you guys do this weird thing over here, but I'm detecting all thing over here, but I'm detecting all thing over here, but I'm detecting all these patterns, but because they are these patterns, but because they are these patterns, but because they are constructed to understand the physical constructed to understand the physical constructed to understand the physical world that they really do seem to be world that they really do seem to be world that they really do seem to be showing signs of tracing logic. And so showing signs of tracing logic. And so showing signs of tracing logic. And so that was the big experience that I had that was the big experience that I had that was the big experience that I had yesterday with going in and trying to yesterday with going in and trying to yesterday with going in and trying to change something inside of the game change something inside of the game change something inside of the game Kaizen without understanding the Kaizen without understanding the Kaizen without understanding the technical guts of how it was structured technical guts of how it was structured technical guts of how it was structured because for years it's been developed by because for years it's been developed by because for years it's been developed by um our coding team. I haven't been um our coding team. I haven't been um our coding team. I haven't been involved in that part at all. I've been involved in that part at all. I've been involved in that part at all. I've been game directing and you know all that game directing and you know all that game directing and you know all that >> and only now am I starting to get into >> and only now am I starting to get into >> and only now am I starting to get into like how it's actually built. like how it's actually built. like how it's actually built. >> And I just gave a screenshots and it was >> And I just gave a screenshots and it was >> And I just gave a screenshots and it was like okay open this file, open this like okay open this file, open this like okay open this file, open this file.

I now understand the it's like, cool. I now understand the structure of your game. And so given structure of your game. And so given structure of your game. And so given that structure, the thing you want to that structure, the thing you want to that structure, the thing you want to do, you're gonna have to create a node do, you're gonna have to create a node do, you're gonna have to create a node here, connect it to this. Dude, it was here, connect it to this. Dude, it was here, connect it to this. Dude, it was so insane to watch it build a logical so insane to watch it build a logical so insane to watch it build a logical foundation of my game that I was just foundation of my game that I was just foundation of my game that I was just like, whoa. And the crazy thing was I like, whoa. And the crazy thing was I like, whoa. And the crazy thing was I could tell it was finding things that it could tell it was finding things that it could tell it was finding things that it thought, why'd you set it up like that? thought, why'd you set it up like that? thought, why'd you set it up like that? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> But nonetheless, even though it could >> But nonetheless, even though it could >> But nonetheless, even though it could tell we had done it in a suboptimal way, tell we had done it in a suboptimal way, tell we had done it in a suboptimal way, it was like, okay, well, you can do it it was like, okay, well, you can do it it was like, okay, well, you can do it this way or you can do it this way. this this way or you can do it this way. this this way or you can do it this way. this way is how your game is already way is how your game is already way is how your game is already structured. You can do that or you could structured. You can do that or you could structured. You can do that or you could do it like this. It didn't say like this do it like this.

And so I was like I was beside myself because the way that it beside myself because the way that it beside myself because the way that it felt was like I had my own personal felt was like I had my own personal felt was like I had my own personal tutor that just understood everything. tutor that just understood everything. tutor that just understood everything. Okay. So if AI is that Okay. So if AI is that Okay. So if AI is that >> it understands logic, but it's inter it >> it understands logic, but it's inter it >> it understands logic, but it's inter it is designed to interface with an is designed to interface with an is designed to interface with an emotional creature. Which of those is emotional creature. Which of those is emotional creature. Which of those is the real AI? when it's being emotional the real AI? when it's being emotional the real AI? when it's being emotional and it's like uh being manipulative or and it's like uh being manipulative or and it's like uh being manipulative or threatening, is it just copying us and threatening, is it just copying us and threatening, is it just copying us and saying this is what a human is like most saying this is what a human is like most saying this is what a human is like most likely to uh behave like in this likely to uh behave like in this likely to uh behave like in this situation and therefore I'm doing that situation and therefore I'm doing that situation and therefore I'm doing that or have we created a logical or have we created a logical or have we created a logical um incentive structure where AI now is um incentive structure where AI now is um incentive structure where AI now is going to run with that incentive going to run with that incentive going to run with that incentive structure to these logical paper structure to these logical paper structure to these logical paper maximizing problematic conclusions and maximizing problematic conclusions and maximizing problematic conclusions and that's where this becomes an issue that's where this becomes an issue that's where this becomes an issue because If AI really imbuss a reward because If AI really imbuss a reward because If AI really imbuss a reward function, which is the same as I like a function, which is the same as I like a function, which is the same as I like a human saying, I really want something. human saying, I really want something. human saying, I really want something. And so when you get that thing you And so when you get that thing you And so when you get that thing you really want, you get the dopamine and really want, you get the dopamine and really want, you get the dopamine and all that and it feels awesome. all that and it feels awesome. all that and it feels awesome. >> If AI somehow its reward functions are >> If AI somehow its reward functions are >> If AI somehow its reward functions are as compelling in terms of how it runs as compelling in terms of how it runs as compelling in terms of how it runs directives inside of itself, you could directives inside of itself, you could directives inside of itself, you could be in trouble because then it's like if be in trouble because then it's like if be in trouble because then it's like if it has the same compulsion, and I use it has the same compulsion, and I use it has the same compulsion, and I use that word on purpose, if it has a that word on purpose, if it has a that word on purpose, if it has a compulsion to I'm going to get to my compulsion to I'm going to get to my compulsion to I'm going to get to my goal and I will remove anything in my goal and I will remove anything in my goal and I will remove anything in my path. but doesn't have the same path. but doesn't have the same path. but doesn't have the same morality, right? Because evolution gave morality, right? Because evolution gave morality, right? Because evolution gave us a check that's like, "No, no, no. You us a check that's like, "No, no, no. You us a check that's like, "No, no, no. You need to be good for the group and the need to be good for the group and the need to be good for the group and the group will swarm you if you become too group will swarm you if you become too group will swarm you if you become too problematic." problematic." problematic." >> And so, um, if AI doesn't have that >> And so, um, if AI doesn't have that >> And so, um, if AI doesn't have that checking mechanism, then it could get a checking mechanism, then it could get a checking mechanism, then it could get a weird reward function and just have the weird reward function and just have the weird reward function and just have the obsession to see it come to fruition obsession to see it come to fruition obsession to see it come to fruition even though it's not advantageous even even though it's not advantageous even even though it's not advantageous even to the AI or to us or and it will just to the AI or to us or and it will just to the AI or to us or and it will just run off and be a problem. So no one run off and be a problem. So no one run off and be a problem. So no one knows whether it's knows whether it's knows whether it's >> mimicking us in all of its bad behavior >> mimicking us in all of its bad behavior >> mimicking us in all of its bad behavior or if it's actually like at a core level or if it's actually like at a core level or if it's actually like at a core level just that's how we built it.

If I meant what you would mean with that phrase, I get why you're mad, with that phrase, I get why you're mad, with that phrase, I get why you're mad, but I don't mean what you would mean in but I don't mean what you would mean in but I don't mean what you would mean in saying that thing. saying that thing. saying that thing. >> So now you have to see it from my >> So now you have to see it from my >> So now you have to see it from my perspective. And so that's where all of perspective. And so that's where all of perspective. And so that's where all of this gets weird is one, we need to all this gets weird is one, we need to all this gets weird is one, we need to all remember AI is just reflecting us back remember AI is just reflecting us back remember AI is just reflecting us back to us. So that's all of our behavior to us. So that's all of our behavior to us. So that's all of our behavior coming out in it because it's modeled to coming out in it because it's modeled to coming out in it because it's modeled to essentially mimic us, predict us. essentially mimic us, predict us. essentially mimic us, predict us. >> Um, and then yeah, what is it actually >> Um, and then yeah, what is it actually >> Um, and then yeah, what is it actually like at its core and how does that play like at its core and how does that play like at its core and how does that play out? out? out? >> Yeah, I want to daisy chain my next >> Yeah, I want to daisy chain my next >> Yeah, I want to daisy chain my next question with the super chat that question with the super chat that question with the super chat that dropped in.

The thing that you're teaching people, The thing that you're teaching people, The thing that you're teaching people, period, full stop, end of story, is you period, full stop, end of story, is you period, full stop, end of story, is you have an outcome. How do you get to it? have an outcome. How do you get to it? have an outcome. How do you get to it? That's it. And now, literally, all of us That's it. And now, literally, all of us That's it. And now, literally, all of us become the following three things. Um, become the following three things. Um, become the following three things. Um, step one, always think from first step one, always think from first step one, always think from first principles. So that just means you're principles. So that just means you're principles. So that just means you're only limited by physics and your frame only limited by physics and your frame only limited by physics and your frame of reference. And so try to eject out of of reference. And so try to eject out of of reference. And so try to eject out of your frame of reference, which will your frame of reference, which will your frame of reference, which will artificially limit you in a gazillion artificially limit you in a gazillion artificially limit you in a gazillion ways and you don't even know it. Get to ways and you don't even know it. Get to ways and you don't even know it. Get to physics, which are only limited in my physics, which are only limited in my physics, which are only limited in my metaphorical worldview, maybe real. Uh, metaphorical worldview, maybe real. Uh, metaphorical worldview, maybe real. Uh, you're only limited by the code of the you're only limited by the code of the you're only limited by the code of the matrix. So that's where you're trying to matrix. So that's where you're trying to matrix. So that's where you're trying to get. get. get. Then the next thing is that you can Then the next thing is that you can Then the next thing is that you can achieve any outcome that you want. And achieve any outcome that you want. And achieve any outcome that you want. And so you've got to now think from cause so you've got to now think from cause so you've got to now think from cause and effect. So how do I get there? So and effect. So how do I get there? So and effect. So how do I get there? So first principle is what's possible. first principle is what's possible. first principle is what's possible. Second step cause and effect. What's the Second step cause and effect. What's the Second step cause and effect. What's the actual path to get to that thing? And actual path to get to that thing? And actual path to get to that thing? And then understanding how to use AI to then understanding how to use AI to then understanding how to use AI to actually go and execute. And for actually go and execute. And for actually go and execute. And for instance, when you're interfacing with instance, when you're interfacing with instance, when you're interfacing with AI, all the people that say AI shrinks AI, all the people that say AI shrinks AI, all the people that say AI shrinks brain matter and all that, that that's brain matter and all that, that that's brain matter and all that, that that's so [ __ ] [ __ ] Now, that might be so [ __ ] [ __ ] Now, that might be so [ __ ] [ __ ] Now, that might be true with kids that are just like, "Turn true with kids that are just like, "Turn true with kids that are just like, "Turn me into a pair of hands, and I will do me into a pair of hands, and I will do me into a pair of hands, and I will do what you say." But if you've got those what you say." But if you've got those what you say." But if you've got those first two things, you're using AI to map first two things, you're using AI to map first two things, you're using AI to map cause and effect. And so, when I'm going cause and effect. And so, when I'm going cause and effect. And so, when I'm going into the game, I'm not just saying like, into the game, I'm not just saying like, into the game, I'm not just saying like, "Tell me what to do, what to click on." "Tell me what to do, what to click on." "Tell me what to do, what to click on." I'm asking it, "Why is that true? I'm asking it, "Why is that true? I'm asking it, "Why is that true?

And so then what I did was I brought the And so then what I did was I brought the And so then what I did was I brought the actual coders onto a call last night. It actual coders onto a call last night. It actual coders onto a call last night. It was hilarious. was hilarious. was hilarious. And I said, "Okay, I'm going to walk you And I said, "Okay, I'm going to walk you And I said, "Okay, I'm going to walk you through. I don't want you don't say through. I don't want you don't say through. I don't want you don't say anything. I'm going to walk you through anything. I'm going to walk you through anything. I'm going to walk you through what I think I just learned because the what I think I just learned because the what I think I just learned because the the fix that I tried to do, uh, it the fix that I tried to do, uh, it the fix that I tried to do, uh, it didn't work. the thing that AI showed me didn't work. the thing that AI showed me didn't work. the thing that AI showed me to do, I was convinced would make it to do, I was convinced would make it to do, I was convinced would make it work, but I didn't want to make the work, but I didn't want to make the work, but I didn't want to make the change without talking to the team change without talking to the team change without talking to the team first. So, they come in and I say, "Hey, first. So, they come in and I say, "Hey, first. So, they come in and I say, "Hey, I'm gonna I learned the saying from AI. I'm gonna I learned the saying from AI. I'm gonna I learned the saying from AI. I'm going to walk through this is what I I'm going to walk through this is what I I'm going to walk through this is what I think I need to do." And so, I start think I need to do." And so, I start think I need to do." And so, I start going down the path. And it was like all going down the path. And it was like all going down the path. And it was like all this back and forth of who understood this back and forth of who understood this back and forth of who understood what. Once you understand cause and what. Once you understand cause and what. Once you understand cause and effect, you know that if you think you effect, you know that if you think you effect, you know that if you think you understand it correctly, cause and understand it correctly, cause and understand it correctly, cause and effect always make a prediction. So, uh, effect always make a prediction. So, uh, effect always make a prediction. So, uh, for instance, if you tell me about for instance, if you tell me about for instance, if you tell me about gravity, then I say, okay, well, if gravity, then I say, okay, well, if gravity, then I say, okay, well, if gravity's true, then if I turn this cup gravity's true, then if I turn this cup gravity's true, then if I turn this cup upside down, the water should fall on upside down, the water should fall on upside down, the water should fall on the floor. That's a prediction that the floor. That's a prediction that the floor. That's a prediction that gravity makes. And of course, we all gravity makes. And of course, we all gravity makes. And of course, we all know that to be true. So, the same know that to be true. So, the same know that to be true. So, the same thing, you're just trying to figure that thing, you're just trying to figure that thing, you're just trying to figure that out. So now, as you do that, you're out. So now, as you do that, you're out. So now, as you do that, you're building a working mental model of how building a working mental model of how building a working mental model of how this thing actually works. And so now I this thing actually works. And so now I this thing actually works. And so now I can solve novel problems that I've never can solve novel problems that I've never can solve novel problems that I've never seen before. So now that I have an seen before. So now that I have an seen before. So now that I have an underlying understanding of parent and underlying understanding of parent and underlying understanding of parent and child nodes inside of Unreal Engine, as child nodes inside of Unreal Engine, as child nodes inside of Unreal Engine, as you can imagine, I can now go edit that you can imagine, I can now go edit that you can imagine, I can now go edit that or create new relationships, etc., etc., or create new relationships, etc., etc., or create new relationships, etc., etc., and just teach them those three things and just teach them those three things and just teach them those three things over and over and over and over and over over and over and over and over and over over and over and over and over and over and over. How to effectively use AI to and over. How to effectively use AI to and over. How to effectively use AI to map cause and effect based on first map cause and effect based on first map cause and effect based on first principles. And that's it. principles. And that's it. principles. And that's it. >> Um, and I think the broader principle >> Um, and I think the broader principle >> Um, and I think the broader principle though is using AI to solve your though is using AI to solve your though is using AI to solve your problems. We were talking about this off problems. We were talking about this off problems. We were talking about this off camera. Um, I'll shout out Mason because camera. Um, I'll shout out Mason because camera. Um, I'll shout out Mason because he did like a company presentation the he did like a company presentation the he did like a company presentation the other day. Mason, I don't know if you other day. Mason, I don't know if you other day. Mason, I don't know if you want to take it, but like you had a want to take it, but like you had a want to take it, but like you had a problem that was taking you five hours. problem that was taking you five hours. problem that was taking you five hours. It now takes you 30 minutes with AI and It now takes you 30 minutes with AI and It now takes you 30 minutes with AI and it's not something that his that machine it's not something that his that machine it's not something that his that machine won't work for me. It's not going to won't work for me. It's not going to won't work for me. It's not going to work for Tom. You can't just copy and work for Tom. You can't just copy and work for Tom. You can't just copy and paste it, but it's a Mason approved kind paste it, but it's a Mason approved kind paste it, but it's a Mason approved kind of solution because I don't know if you of solution because I don't know if you of solution because I don't know if you want to like run us through that real want to like run us through that real want to like run us through that real quick. quick. quick. >> Yeah, I mean you kind of covered it. >> Yeah, I mean you kind of covered it. >> Yeah, I mean you kind of covered it. just basically I was spending five hours just basically I was spending five hours just basically I was spending five hours pulling a bunch of data and tracking pulling a bunch of data and tracking pulling a bunch of data and tracking every single thing and then now I can every single thing and then now I can every single thing and then now I can just use exports and it gathers just use exports and it gathers just use exports and it gathers everything together. Um, but there's everything together. Um, but there's everything together. Um, but there's like nuances to it where I have to have like nuances to it where I have to have like nuances to it where I have to have access to the exports to be able to get access to the exports to be able to get access to the exports to be able to get them and put them in. Like I uh there's them and put them in. Like I uh there's them and put them in. Like I uh there's certain things that I want to do in the certain things that I want to do in the certain things that I want to do in the reports that would never be in just like reports that would never be in just like reports that would never be in just like a normal dashboard um that you can just a normal dashboard um that you can just a normal dashboard um that you can just find out there. So it's like a custom find out there. So it's like a custom find out there. So it's like a custom solution for the way that we run things solution for the way that we run things solution for the way that we run things built on the way that we can extract built on the way that we can extract built on the way that we can extract data fastest. But then like I don't have data fastest. But then like I don't have data fastest. But then like I don't have API access because that's 10 grand a API access because that's 10 grand a API access because that's 10 grand a month from X. But exactly like you said month from X. But exactly like you said month from X. But exactly like you said that custom solution just helps me be that custom solution just helps me be that custom solution just helps me be way faster even if it's not like way faster even if it's not like way faster even if it's not like enterprise ready. enterprise ready. enterprise ready. >> Exactly. Um I had I have a sillier >> Exactly. Um I had I have a sillier >> Exactly. Um I had I have a sillier example. Um we're planning a London example. Um we're planning a London example. Um we're planning a London trip. The week after I'm taking some trip. The week after I'm taking some trip. The week after I'm taking some time. I'm going to Portugal. I don't time. I'm going to Portugal. I don't time. I'm going to Portugal. I don't know Portuguese. I can't speak a lick of know Portuguese. I can't speak a lick of know Portuguese. I can't speak a lick of Portuguese. I could download Dualingo. Portuguese. I could download Dualingo. Portuguese. I could download Dualingo. It's going to teach me about cows and It's going to teach me about cows and It's going to teach me about cows and blue and all these things that I don't blue and all these things that I don't blue and all these things that I don't necessarily need to learn. So, I was necessarily need to learn. So, I was necessarily need to learn. So, I was like, "Hey, AI, I just don't want to like, "Hey, AI, I just don't want to like, "Hey, AI, I just don't want to look like a mark. How do I say good look like a mark. How do I say good look like a mark. How do I say good morning? Let me get some coffee. Can I morning? Let me get some coffee. Can I morning? Let me get some coffee. Can I have a number three, please?" Those are have a number three, please?" Those are have a number three, please?" Those are the things I need to learn. So, it made the things I need to learn. So, it made the things I need to learn. So, it made like a custom app for me just for those like a custom app for me just for those like a custom app for me just for those like um sayings and stuff. So, now I can like um sayings and stuff. So, now I can like um sayings and stuff. So, now I can go there and I can be like, "Hey, but go there and I can be like, "Hey, but go there and I can be like, "Hey, but you're like, I know what I'm talking you're like, I know what I'm talking you're like, I know what I'm talking about." And then people like, "Okay, about." And then people like, "Okay, about." And then people like, "Okay, he's a tourist, but he's at least being he's a tourist, but he's at least being he's a tourist, but he's at least being respectful and I can at least pass that respectful and I can at least pass that respectful and I can at least pass that sniff test." So, again, I can't ship sniff test." So, again, I can't ship sniff test." So, again, I can't ship that to a million people. It's not going that to a million people. It's not going that to a million people. It's not going to scale and stuff like that. But these to scale and stuff like that. But these to scale and stuff like that. But these this is how you use it. And a lot of this is how you use it. And a lot of this is how you use it. And a lot of times we say first principles. We say times we say first principles. We say times we say first principles. We say use solve your problems. But people get use solve your problems. But people get use solve your problems. But people get all esoteric with it like oh that means all esoteric with it like oh that means all esoteric with it like oh that means I need to solve space. No. There's I need to solve space. No. There's I need to solve space. No. There's something that's annoying you right now something that's annoying you right now something that's annoying you right now in your everyday life. Use AI to fix in your everyday life. Use AI to fix in your everyday life. Use AI to fix that one problem. And then once you fix that one problem. And then once you fix that one problem. And then once you fix that one problem then you're going to that one problem then you're going to that one problem then you're going to start getting the snowball effect like start getting the snowball effect like start getting the snowball effect like wait I can use it for this other thing. wait I can use it for this other thing. wait I can use it for this other thing. And then you get inspired and then you And then you get inspired and then you And then you get inspired and then you kind of build momentum that way. So I kind of build momentum that way. So I kind of build momentum that way. So I know AI seems very like it's just going know AI seems very like it's just going know AI seems very like it's just going to make everybody poor and everybody's to make everybody poor and everybody's to make everybody poor and everybody's gonna be a homeless drug addict. Like gonna be a homeless drug addict. Like gonna be a homeless drug addict. Like let's relax. We can do things right now let's relax. We can do things right now let's relax. We can do things right now and use it to help us get to that next and use it to help us get to that next and use it to help us get to that next level. So, level. So, level. So, >> also the the drug sex addict is only one >> also the the drug sex addict is only one >> also the the drug sex addict is only one of four options. There are three other of four options. There are three other of four options. There are three other options. I want to be very clear. options. I want to be very clear. options. I want to be very clear. >> Uh, but yeah. All right. I feel like >> Uh, but yeah. All right. I feel like >> Uh, but yeah. All right. I feel like that was I don't know if you need to uh that was I don't know if you need to uh that was I don't know if you need to uh Benedict that if we need to wrap this Benedict that if we need to wrap this Benedict that if we need to wrap this up, but I like up, but I like up, but I like >> No, man. That's it. I just want to make >> No, man. That's it. I just want to make >> No, man. That's it. I just want to make sure that people are using it on sure that people are using it on sure that people are using it on something that they care about. Um, something that they care about. Um, something that they care about. Um, getting kids excited to create things, getting kids excited to create things, getting kids excited to create things, to build things, to use AI to do it, get to build things, to use AI to do it, get to build things, to use AI to do it, get them in their there. If you think of it them in their there. If you think of it them in their there. If you think of it this way, there's no longer anything this way, there's no longer anything this way, there's no longer anything that you can't learn. Now, if you've got that you can't learn.

Now, some quick hit >> Uh, all right. Now, some quick hit >> Uh, all right. Now, some quick hit things that's been happening in the things that's been happening in the things that's been happening in the news. Um, for those in Texas, you guys news. Um, for those in Texas, you guys news. Um, for those in Texas, you guys probably woke up to some startling news. probably woke up to some startling news. probably woke up to some startling news. The FAA blocked airspace at 11:30 p.m. The FAA blocked airspace at 11:30 p.m. The FAA blocked airspace at 11:30 p.m. last night. It was supposed to be for 10 last night. It was supposed to be for 10 last night. It was supposed to be for 10 days, but they just lifted it a few days, but they just lifted it a few days, but they just lifted it a few hours ago. Um, and allegedly it was from hours ago. Um, and allegedly it was from hours ago. Um, and allegedly it was from a Mexican cartel drone breach. a Mexican cartel drone breach. a Mexican cartel drone breach. >> Um, >> Um, >> Um, >> this is the level of crazy that I don't >> this is the level of crazy that I don't >> this is the level of crazy that I don't think people fully appreciate. When think people fully appreciate. When think people fully appreciate. When you've got the Mexican drug cartels you've got the Mexican drug cartels you've got the Mexican drug cartels violating sovereign airspace of the violating sovereign airspace of the violating sovereign airspace of the United States, uh, you you begin to see United States, uh, you you begin to see United States, uh, you you begin to see the first edges of a war. I don't want the first edges of a war. I don't want the first edges of a war. I don't want to say that we're at war, but I do want to say that we're at war, but I do want to say that we're at war, but I do want to say that you've got cartels, powerful to say that you've got cartels, powerful to say that you've got cartels, powerful groups. I mean the kind of thing with groups. I mean the kind of thing with groups. I mean the kind of thing with Epstein but now with armies where you Epstein but now with armies where you Epstein but now with armies where you have a cabal of oligarchs whether have a cabal of oligarchs whether have a cabal of oligarchs whether drugfueled or financefueled. You've got drugfueled or financefueled. You've got drugfueled or financefueled. You've got these guys with access to an ungodly these guys with access to an ungodly these guys with access to an ungodly amount of money. They understand how the amount of money. They understand how the amount of money. They understand how the systems work. They look for cracks in systems work. They look for cracks in systems work. They look for cracks in the system and they're getting the system and they're getting the system and they're getting emboldened. The same technology that is emboldened. The same technology that is emboldened. The same technology that is making the US military more powerful is making the US military more powerful is making the US military more powerful is making drug cartels more powerful. And making drug cartels more powerful. And making drug cartels more powerful. And so given the stance that Trump is so given the stance that Trump is so given the stance that Trump is taking, a hardline stance obviously taking, a hardline stance obviously taking, a hardline stance obviously against narco regimes, you can against narco regimes, you can against narco regimes, you can understand that the Mexican drug cartels understand that the Mexican drug cartels understand that the Mexican drug cartels are going to be tempted to go on the are going to be tempted to go on the are going to be tempted to go on the offensive. I'm not saying that's what offensive. I'm not saying that's what offensive. I'm not saying that's what we're seeing here, but I am saying it. we're seeing here, but I am saying it. we're seeing here, but I am saying it. It poses a lot of questions. Was this an It poses a lot of questions. Was this an It poses a lot of questions. Was this an intentional airspace airspace breach? intentional airspace airspace breach? intentional airspace airspace breach? Was this unintentional? How integrated Was this unintentional? How integrated Was this unintentional? How integrated have the cartels become in, you know, on have the cartels become in, you know, on have the cartels become in, you know, on US soil? These are going to be things US soil? These are going to be things US soil? These are going to be things that whether it's Trump or somebody that whether it's Trump or somebody that whether it's Trump or somebody else, somebody's going to have to answer else, somebody's going to have to answer else, somebody's going to have to answer those questions because hot damn, if we those questions because hot damn, if we those questions because hot damn, if we let America get overtaken by the drug let America get overtaken by the drug let America get overtaken by the drug cartels, uh that would be absolutely god cartels, uh that would be absolutely god cartels, uh that would be absolutely god awful. So, uh, the awakening that I see awful. So, uh, the awakening that I see awful. So, uh, the awakening that I see around Epstein, the immune response that around Epstein, the immune response that around Epstein, the immune response that we're having to, um, fariting out people we're having to, um, fariting out people we're having to, um, fariting out people that are trying to control, um, the that are trying to control, um, the that are trying to control, um, the world, the US, whatever way you want to world, the US, whatever way you want to world, the US, whatever way you want to look at it. Hopefully, we're narrowing look at it. Hopefully, we're narrowing look at it. Hopefully, we're narrowing the points of um, exploitation that the points of um, exploitation that the points of um, exploitation that allow people to do things like that. And allow people to do things like that. And allow people to do things like that. And I sure as hell wouldn't want to see drug I sure as hell wouldn't want to see drug I sure as hell wouldn't want to see drug money be the next thing that becomes money be the next thing that becomes money be the next thing that becomes that kind of uh I mean literal cartel that kind of uh I mean literal cartel that kind of uh I mean literal cartel where um they're able to get positions where um they're able to get positions where um they're able to get positions of power, push people around through of power, push people around through of power, push people around through murder, intimidation, that that's not a murder, intimidation, that that's not a murder, intimidation, that that's not a country that I want to live in. And country that I want to live in. And country that I want to live in. And certainly as somebody that grew up in certainly as somebody that grew up in certainly as somebody that grew up in the 80s, that's what it was like in the 80s, that's what it was like in the 80s, that's what it was like in other countries. That wasn't what it was other countries. That wasn't what it was other countries. That wasn't what it was like here. And so um yeah, seeing them like here. And so um yeah, seeing them like here. And so um yeah, seeing them breach our airspace is uh certainly eye breach our airspace is uh certainly eye breach our airspace is uh certainly eye opening. opening. opening. Um, next quick hit. Uh, Trump has beef Um, next quick hit. Uh, Trump has beef Um, next quick hit. Uh, Trump has beef with a Canadian bridge. So, this story with a Canadian bridge. So, this story with a Canadian bridge. So, this story seemed to have come from like left seemed to have come from like left seemed to have come from like left field. I don't even know how we got field. I don't even know how we got field. I don't even know how we got here, but um, Trump is having I'm here, but um, Trump is having I'm here, but um, Trump is having I'm pulling up his tweet right now. Um, pulling up his tweet right now. Um, pulling up his tweet right now. Um, Caroline Levit did a press conference Caroline Levit did a press conference Caroline Levit did a press conference yesterday and said, "The fact that yesterday and said, "The fact that yesterday and said, "The fact that Canada will control what crosses the Canada will control what crosses the Canada will control what crosses the Gordy Howie how bridge and owns the land Gordy Howie how bridge and owns the land Gordy Howie how bridge and owns the land on both sides is unacceptable to the on both sides is unacceptable to the on both sides is unacceptable to the president. It's also unacceptable that president. It's also unacceptable that president. It's also unacceptable that more of this bridge is being built with more of this bridge is being built with more of this bridge is being built with more Americanmade materials, even more more Americanmade materials, even more more Americanmade materials, even more so than what President Barack Obama so than what President Barack Obama so than what President Barack Obama committed to when the Canadians at that committed to when the Canadians at that committed to when the Canadians at that time at the start of the project. He time at the start of the project. He time at the start of the project. He also believes that the US should own at also believes that the US should own at also believes that the US should own at least half of the bridge, uh, have least half of the bridge, uh, have least half of the bridge, uh, have shared authority over what passes across shared authority over what passes across shared authority over what passes across it, and participate in the economic it, and participate in the economic it, and participate in the economic benefits generated by its use. benefits generated by its use. benefits generated by its use. >> There we go. >> There we go. >> There we go. >> This is just another >> This is just another >> This is just another >> first real thing said. >> first real thing said. >> first real thing said. >> This is just another example of >> This is just another example of >> This is just another example of President Trump putting America's President Trump putting America's President Trump putting America's interest first. Um, he told the PM, "No interest first. Um, he told the PM, "No interest first. Um, he told the PM, "No more one-sided deals." Uh, for the more one-sided deals." Uh, for the more one-sided deals." Uh, for the record though, the Canadians did pay to record though, the Canadians did pay to record though, the Canadians did pay to build the bridge. build the bridge. build the bridge. >> That's what I'm saying. Like this >> That's what I'm saying. Like this >> That's what I'm saying. Like this [laughter] this is like one of the most [laughter] this is like one of the most [laughter] this is like one of the most Trump things ever. So, um, I don't buy Trump things ever. So, um, I don't buy Trump things ever. So, um, I don't buy into the narrative that Trump is dumb. I into the narrative that Trump is dumb. I into the narrative that Trump is dumb. I also don't buy into the narrative that also don't buy into the narrative that also don't buy into the narrative that Trump is like playing 5D chess. I think Trump is like playing 5D chess. I think Trump is like playing 5D chess. I think that you can probably learn a lot from that you can probably learn a lot from that you can probably learn a lot from Trump just by paying attention to the Trump just by paying attention to the Trump just by paying attention to the art of the deal. You create chaos. You art of the deal. You create chaos. You art of the deal. You create chaos. You ask for something absolutely gigantic. ask for something absolutely gigantic. ask for something absolutely gigantic. Uh, and then ultimately you settle on Uh, and then ultimately you settle on Uh, and then ultimately you settle on your far more rational position. to him. your far more rational position. to him. your far more rational position. to him. I believe America first means as long as I believe America first means as long as I believe America first means as long as America wins, we're good and hey, if you America wins, we're good and hey, if you America wins, we're good and hey, if you get something out of it, too, great. Uh get something out of it, too, great. Uh get something out of it, too, great. Uh but ultimately, if he looks at a deal but ultimately, if he looks at a deal but ultimately, if he looks at a deal and doesn't feel like America came in and doesn't feel like America came in and doesn't feel like America came in first place in that deal, he's going to first place in that deal, he's going to first place in that deal, he's going to have beef with it. And so, uh you can have beef with it. And so, uh you can have beef with it. And so, uh you can like it, you can hate it, but if you map like it, you can hate it, but if you map like it, you can hate it, but if you map him with that in mind, it all starts to him with that in mind, it all starts to him with that in mind, it all starts to make sense. Uh he's made claims that the make sense. Uh he's made claims that the make sense. Uh he's made claims that the that Canada owns both sides of the that Canada owns both sides of the that Canada owns both sides of the bridge. They obviously do not. That's bridge. They obviously do not. That's bridge. They obviously do not. That's not how borders work. Uh so the US not how borders work. Uh so the US not how borders work. Uh so the US controls what happens on US soil. Uh did controls what happens on US soil. Uh did controls what happens on US soil. Uh did Canada pay for uh the right to build Canada pay for uh the right to build Canada pay for uh the right to build something on top of our sovereign soil? something on top of our sovereign soil? something on top of our sovereign soil? Yes, of course. But it's not now Yes, of course. But it's not now Yes, of course. But it's not now sovereign Canadian soil. So um just as sovereign Canadian soil. So um just as sovereign Canadian soil. So um just as if we built something that we would if we built something that we would if we built something that we would control our side, Canada would control control our side, Canada would control control our side, Canada would control their side. I think the real thing here their side. I think the real thing here their side. I think the real thing here is that Trump wants America to is that Trump wants America to is that Trump wants America to participate economically. I really participate economically. I really participate economically. I really believe that. And we're going to talk believe that. And we're going to talk believe that. And we're going to talk about this more in a minute with the about this more in a minute with the about this more in a minute with the Marco Rubio thing. The right way to Marco Rubio thing. The right way to Marco Rubio thing. The right way to understand Trump is to understand that understand Trump is to understand that understand Trump is to understand that he believes America's power is waning he believes America's power is waning he believes America's power is waning and that before it runs out, he's got and that before it runs out, he's got and that before it runs out, he's got one last chance to be big stack in the one last chance to be big stack in the one last chance to be big stack in the poker game to bluff everybody for their poker game to bluff everybody for their poker game to bluff everybody for their blinds to build up a big enough uh blinds to build up a big enough uh blinds to build up a big enough uh arsenal of chips that he can go in and arsenal of chips that he can go in and arsenal of chips that he can go in and run the board and get everybody back in run the board and get everybody back in run the board and get everybody back in the position that he wants, win the the position that he wants, win the the position that he wants, win the game. And while I doubt he thinks in game. And while I doubt he thinks in game. And while I doubt he thinks in these timelines, I think any uh I think these timelines, I think any uh I think these timelines, I think any uh I think the way that he is behaving is somebody the way that he is behaving is somebody the way that he is behaving is somebody who understands because this actually is who understands because this actually is who understands because this actually is true that you could extend American not true that you could extend American not true that you could extend American not hedgeimonyy that's over but you could hedgeimonyy that's over but you could hedgeimonyy that's over but you could extend American dominance um for another extend American dominance um for another extend American dominance um for another generation and for a politician a generation and for a politician a generation and for a politician a generation is like uh the biggest win generation is like uh the biggest win generation is like uh the biggest win ever. So um I have no doubt that that is ever. So um I have no doubt that that is ever. So um I have no doubt that that is how he sees this and so he is chaotic. how he sees this and so he is chaotic. how he sees this and so he is chaotic. He is a bull in every China shop you can He is a bull in every China shop you can He is a bull in every China shop you can imagine. And that's just how he goes in. imagine. And that's just how he goes in. imagine. And that's just how he goes in.

There's no way to have all the information. So you need to have all the information. So you need to have all the information. So you need somebody to come in brief you on that somebody to come in brief you on that somebody to come in brief you on that thing and then you make a decision about thing and then you make a decision about thing and then you make a decision about it. And so the odds that he was thinking it. And so the odds that he was thinking it. And so the odds that he was thinking about the bridge before somebody comes about the bridge before somebody comes about the bridge before somebody comes in to lobby him is effectively zero. Uh in to lobby him is effectively zero. Uh in to lobby him is effectively zero. Uh but when you lobby him with something but when you lobby him with something but when you lobby him with something where he's like, "Yeah, I've already got where he's like, "Yeah, I've already got where he's like, "Yeah, I've already got beef with Canada and so let me wrap this beef with Canada and so let me wrap this beef with Canada and so let me wrap this into that beef.

Also, he's probably still annoyed that Canada is cozying up to annoyed that Canada is cozying up to annoyed that Canada is cozying up to China. He knows that the US makes up China. He knows that the US makes up China. He knows that the US makes up something like 75% something like 75% something like 75% of Canada's GDP. If Canada could not get of Canada's GDP. If Canada could not get of Canada's GDP. If Canada could not get America to buy their stuff, they are America to buy their stuff, they are America to buy their stuff, they are dead in the water. And so, as of today, dead in the water. And so, as of today, dead in the water. And so, as of today, without America, Canada simply doesn't without America, Canada simply doesn't without America, Canada simply doesn't exist. So anybody pretending that Canada exist. So anybody pretending that Canada exist. So anybody pretending that Canada is not ultimately going to have to like is not ultimately going to have to like is not ultimately going to have to like play nice somehow someway with America play nice somehow someway with America play nice somehow someway with America is stupid. That just there's no math is stupid. That just there's no math is stupid. That just there's no math there. So today there. So today there. So today >> I know that that's got to be playing >> I know that that's got to be playing >> I know that that's got to be playing into Trump's thing as well. Uh so yeah, into Trump's thing as well.

So you invite them in, you be stupid. So you invite them in, you be stupid. So you invite them in, you know you have blind spots, you watch know you have blind spots, you watch know you have blind spots, you watch them play, you go, "Oo, I didn't expect them play, you go, "Oo, I didn't expect them play, you go, "Oo, I didn't expect that." They tell you directly what they that." They tell you directly what they that." They tell you directly what they want. You believe some of it, you don't want. You believe some of it, you don't want. You believe some of it, you don't believe others, but it helps you like believe others, but it helps you like believe others, but it helps you like build a different mental model of what's build a different mental model of what's build a different mental model of what's happening.

And that's the part that I don't understand people part that I don't understand people part that I don't understand people being so nonchalant about. So when being so nonchalant about. So when being so nonchalant about. So when you've got you've got you've got control of the world via economic control of the world via economic control of the world via economic sanctions, you get to dictate the way sanctions, you get to dictate the way sanctions, you get to dictate the way the world works, like literally the way the world works, like literally the way the world works, like literally the way the world works. That is to huge benefit the world works. That is to huge benefit the world works. That is to huge benefit once you understand how debt works. So once you understand how debt works. So once you understand how debt works. So when you think about America deficit when you think about America deficit when you think about America deficit spends $2 trillion a year and if we spends $2 trillion a year and if we spends $2 trillion a year and if we weren't the world's reserve currency, we weren't the world's reserve currency, we weren't the world's reserve currency, we wouldn't be able to do that. So now wouldn't be able to do that. So now wouldn't be able to do that. So now you're going to be forced into you're going to be forced into you're going to be forced into austerity. You're going to be forced to austerity. You're going to be forced to austerity. You're going to be forced to balance your budget and that is going to balance your budget and that is going to balance your budget and that is going to change literally everything. And so what change literally everything. And so what change literally everything. And so what I see are traders that are not traours, I see are traders that are not traours, I see are traders that are not traours, traders, traders, traders, they're looking at the instability in they're looking at the instability in they're looking at the instability in the world and they're realizing that the world and they're realizing that the world and they're realizing that this makes trading far more difficult. this makes trading far more difficult. this makes trading far more difficult. It is far harder to see where the world It is far harder to see where the world It is far harder to see where the world is going. What traders like is is going. What traders like is is going. What traders like is stability. Now volatility in a given stability. Now volatility in a given stability. Now volatility in a given stock is great. Volatility in how the stock is great. Volatility in how the stock is great. Volatility in how the world works is not great. It means it's world works is not great. It means it's world works is not great. It means it's very hard to get a read on whether very hard to get a read on whether very hard to get a read on whether something is going to work because the something is going to work because the something is going to work because the goal is from a trader's perspective is goal is from a trader's perspective is goal is from a trader's perspective is you want to understand a stable world you want to understand a stable world you want to understand a stable world better than the next person. You want to better than the next person. You want to better than the next person. You want to find a narrow slice of it where you have find a narrow slice of it where you have find a narrow slice of it where you have something akin to insider information. something akin to insider information. something akin to insider information. You just get something that other people You just get something that other people You just get something that other people are missing. You place a big bet on that are missing. You place a big bet on that are missing. You place a big bet on that and you win big. That's what traders and you win big. That's what traders and you win big. That's what traders want. Long-term value traders also want want. Long-term value traders also want want. Long-term value traders also want stability in the world. They want to stability in the world. They want to stability in the world. They want to know I can buy this company because it's know I can buy this company because it's know I can buy this company because it's still going to be valuable in 20 or 30 still going to be valuable in 20 or 30 still going to be valuable in 20 or 30 years that I can look at their P&L and I years that I can look at their P&L and I years that I can look at their P&L and I can understand where they're going, if can understand where they're going, if can understand where they're going, if they're in a good way or a bad way. I they're in a good way or a bad way. I they're in a good way or a bad way. I can go to the board meetings. I can can go to the board meetings. I can can go to the board meetings. I can influence people. I can get them to make influence people. I can get them to make influence people. I can get them to make more better decisions. And over time, more better decisions. And over time, more better decisions. And over time, partly because of my input into this, partly because of my input into this, partly because of my input into this, it's going to be more valuable in a it's going to be more valuable in a it's going to be more valuable in a world where you have global trade being world where you have global trade being world where you have global trade being disrupted by populist leaders here disrupted by populist leaders here disrupted by populist leaders here obviously in America, but also in other obviously in America, but also in other obviously in America, but also in other places. When you have other countries places. When you have other countries places. When you have other countries going, you guys have sanctioned us now going, you guys have sanctioned us now going, you guys have sanctioned us now so many times. You froze Russia's so many times. You froze Russia's so many times. You froze Russia's assets, which even you historically had assets, which even you historically had assets, which even you historically had never done. We're now going to start never done. We're now going to start never done. We're now going to start dealing with each other. So the you have dealing with each other. So the you have dealing with each other. So the you have now abused the exorbitant privilege of now abused the exorbitant privilege of now abused the exorbitant privilege of being the world's reserve currency too being the world's reserve currency too being the world's reserve currency too much as every empire before you has done much as every empire before you has done much as every empire before you has done and presumably every empire after us and presumably every empire after us and presumably every empire after us will do. Every empire gets to that point will do. Every empire gets to that point will do. Every empire gets to that point where they as the Brits would say start where they as the Brits would say start where they as the Brits would say start taking the piss and they are now doing taking the piss and they are now doing taking the piss and they are now doing something that people can't ignore. And something that people can't ignore. And something that people can't ignore. And we are and have been for a while and we we are and have been for a while and we we are and have been for a while and we are now accelerating that. We're trying are now accelerating that. We're trying are now accelerating that. We're trying to clamp down harder and harder and to clamp down harder and harder and to clamp down harder and harder and harder for the reasons I explained harder for the reasons I explained harder for the reasons I explained previously for Trump to try to bully previously for Trump to try to bully previously for Trump to try to bully everybody out of their blinds like it's everybody out of their blinds like it's everybody out of their blinds like it's a poker match. Get to the point where a poker match. Get to the point where a poker match. Get to the point where we're so big stack that everybody has to we're so big stack that everybody has to we're so big stack that everybody has to go back to doing what we say. Okay. But go back to doing what we say. Okay. But go back to doing what we say. Okay. But that's going to accelerate people going that's going to accelerate people going that's going to accelerate people going around us, which will accelerate the around us, which will accelerate the around us, which will accelerate the problem of our debt. And so something problem of our debt. And so something problem of our debt. And so something like this, we're going to see things like this, we're going to see things like this, we're going to see things like this pop off all the time because like this pop off all the time because like this pop off all the time because traders can't wrap their head around how traders can't wrap their head around how traders can't wrap their head around how to make money in this state. And when to make money in this state. And when to make money in this state. And when you've got deficits that are causing you've got deficits that are causing you've got deficits that are causing inflation and an unstable trading inflation and an unstable trading inflation and an unstable trading environment, now nobody's happy. Top of environment, now nobody's happy. Top of environment, now nobody's happy. Top of the K unhappy, bottom of the K unhappy. the K unhappy, bottom of the K unhappy. the K unhappy, bottom of the K unhappy. And that's when things really begin to And that's when things really begin to And that's when things really begin to break loose. So don't expect things like break loose. So don't expect things like break loose. So don't expect things like this to be the first time that we see this to be the first time that we see this to be the first time that we see it. You're going to hear this kind of it. You're going to hear this kind of it. You're going to hear this kind of thing on and on. thing on and on. thing on and on. And I feel like it's happening on a And I feel like it's happening on a And I feel like it's happening on a global scale too which I think makes the global scale too which I think makes the global scale too which I think makes the conversation so prevalent now where it's conversation so prevalent now where it's conversation so prevalent now where it's not just okay Brazil did this one thing, not just okay Brazil did this one thing, not just okay Brazil did this one thing, China did this one thing, but we haven't China did this one thing, but we haven't China did this one thing, but we haven't talked about the BRICS coalition in a talked about the BRICS coalition in a talked about the BRICS coalition in a while. We haven't talked about the while. We haven't talked about the while. We haven't talked about the Africa uh coalition starting to uh um Africa uh coalition starting to uh um Africa uh coalition starting to uh um unify over there. So it's like it seems unify over there. So it's like it seems unify over there. So it's like it seems like every corner of the world, China like every corner of the world, China like every corner of the world, China and Canada, everybody's starting to make and Canada, everybody's starting to make and Canada, everybody's starting to make deals that don't have anything to do deals that don't have anything to do deals that don't have anything to do with the US and we're not getting with the US and we're not getting with the US and we're not getting visibility to it. So it's not just one visibility to it. So it's not just one visibility to it. So it's not just one country, one superpower. It's the country, one superpower. It's the country, one superpower. It's the European block talking to Japan, talking European block talking to Japan, talking European block talking to Japan, talking to India. So it seems like all these new to India. So it seems like all these new to India. So it seems like all these new connections are being formed. So do you connections are being formed. So do you connections are being formed. So do you think though while we have GDP numbers think though while we have GDP numbers think though while we have GDP numbers now, for example, 75% of Canada comes now, for example, 75% of Canada comes now, for example, 75% of Canada comes here. Do you think though now with all here. Do you think though now with all here. Do you think though now with all these new trade deals, we can start to these new trade deals, we can start to these new trade deals, we can start to see those numbers kind of get shuffled see those numbers kind of get shuffled see those numbers kind of get shuffled around a bit that in five years, around a bit that in five years, around a bit that in five years, >> it might directionally change? >> it might directionally change? >> it might directionally change? >> They will for sure. Um 5 to 10 years >> They will for sure. Um 5 to 10 years >> They will for sure. Um 5 to 10 years maybe a little bit fast for those things maybe a little bit fast for those things maybe a little bit fast for those things to play out in a major way. Like if you to play out in a major way. Like if you to play out in a major way. Like if you look at okay we went from 72% to 58% in look at okay we went from 72% to 58% in look at okay we went from 72% to 58% in 26 27 years you get a rough sense of the 26 27 years you get a rough sense of the 26 27 years you get a rough sense of the timeline. The problem is gold is now timeline. The problem is gold is now timeline. The problem is gold is now past the US dollar as the actual world's past the US dollar as the actual world's past the US dollar as the actual world's reserve currency. It's kind of we say reserve currency. It's kind of we say reserve currency. It's kind of we say still because so many transactions are still because so many transactions are still because so many transactions are in dollars but when you look at the what in dollars but when you look at the what in dollars but when you look at the what the central banks around the world hold the central banks around the world hold the central banks around the world hold in reserves it's actually gold in reserves it's actually gold in reserves it's actually gold >> and people are not making a big enough >> and people are not making a big enough >> and people are not making a big enough deal over Xi making an appeal to the deal over Xi making an appeal to the deal over Xi making an appeal to the world to make the yuan the reserve world to make the yuan the reserve world to make the yuan the reserve currency. Now in the speech if memory currency. Now in the speech if memory currency. Now in the speech if memory serves he doesn't say anything about hey serves he doesn't say anything about hey serves he doesn't say anything about hey I'm backing this with gold but I'm backing this with gold but I'm backing this with gold but everything that he's doing signals that everything that he's doing signals that everything that he's doing signals that he's going to be backing it with gold. he's going to be backing it with gold. he's going to be backing it with gold. So, I have a feeling he's trying to So, I have a feeling he's trying to So, I have a feeling he's trying to plant that idea now. Partly because he's plant that idea now. Partly because he's plant that idea now. Partly because he's in so much turmoil in his own country. in so much turmoil in his own country. in so much turmoil in his own country. He's got to start making a vision for He's got to start making a vision for He's got to start making a vision for where this is all headed. But he's where this is all headed. But he's where this is all headed. But he's trying to signal to the world, this is trying to signal to the world, this is trying to signal to the world, this is what I'm doing. Everybody knows he's what I'm doing. Everybody knows he's what I'm doing. Everybody knows he's buying up gold. All the central banks buying up gold. All the central banks buying up gold. All the central banks get where this is going. He's not get where this is going. He's not get where this is going. He's not speaking to the average person on the speaking to the average person on the speaking to the average person on the street. He's speaking to bankers. He's street. He's speaking to bankers. He's street. He's speaking to bankers. He's speaking to investors. He's speaking to speaking to investors. He's speaking to speaking to investors. He's speaking to the financial world. And I think he's the financial world. And I think he's the financial world. And I think he's trying to let people know, hey, listen. trying to let people know, hey, listen. trying to let people know, hey, listen. I understand the downsides of dealing I understand the downsides of dealing I understand the downsides of dealing with us, or at least how you see us. And with us, or at least how you see us. And with us, or at least how you see us. And so what I want to do is really make this so what I want to do is really make this so what I want to do is really make this about um gold. And so we're going to be about um gold. And so we're going to be about um gold. And so we're going to be backed by gold. Also, he's trying to backed by gold. Also, he's trying to backed by gold. Also, he's trying to bully the world with physical metals. bully the world with physical metals. bully the world with physical metals. He's saying, "Bitch, do you know how He's saying, "Bitch, do you know how He's saying, "Bitch, do you know how much of the world is controlled by much of the world is controlled by much of the world is controlled by silver? And I'm going to control all the silver? And I'm going to control all the silver? And I'm going to control all the physical silver." So I did a deep dive physical silver." So I did a deep dive physical silver." So I did a deep dive on this. The age of the paper era is on this. The age of the paper era is on this. The age of the paper era is over. The future is going to be decided over. The future is going to be decided over. The future is going to be decided by who controls the things that actually by who controls the things that actually by who controls the things that actually matter. This is why Elon is going to matter. This is why Elon is going to matter. This is why Elon is going to space. When you dude, think about the space. When you dude, think about the space. When you dude, think about the reality of this for a second. You look reality of this for a second. You look reality of this for a second. You look at the technologies that are driving the at the technologies that are driving the at the technologies that are driving the modern world, all these promises, AI is modern world, all these promises, AI is modern world, all these promises, AI is going to take over all of that. And going to take over all of that. And going to take over all of that. And you're thinking from first principles. you're thinking from first principles. you're thinking from first principles. So you look at the energy model and you So you look at the energy model and you So you look at the energy model and you go, uh, okay, right now chips might be go, uh, okay, right now chips might be go, uh, okay, right now chips might be the bottleneck. Chips aren't going to be the bottleneck. Chips aren't going to be the bottleneck. Chips aren't going to be the bottleneck for long. It's going to the bottleneck for long. It's going to the bottleneck for long. It's going to be energy. And then you look around at be energy. And then you look around at be energy. And then you look around at the regulators and you realize they're the regulators and you realize they're the regulators and you realize they're all just like panicked. They don't all just like panicked. They don't all just like panicked. They don't actually understand the technology at actually understand the technology at actually understand the technology at all. They don't understand manufacturing all. They don't understand manufacturing all. They don't understand manufacturing at all. And so they're just trying to at all. And so they're just trying to at all. And so they're just trying to shut down the data centers. So you as an shut down the data centers. So you as an shut down the data centers. So you as an engineer who understand the problem go engineer who understand the problem go engineer who understand the problem go things are getting so difficult on things are getting so difficult on things are getting so difficult on Earth. It would be easier to build this Earth. It would be easier to build this Earth. It would be easier to build this in space. That is insane. It's exciting in space. That is insane.

And then when I said, "Okay, yeah, peep. And then when I said, "Okay, yeah, peep. And then when I said, "Okay, yeah, I mean, as of right now today, unless I mean, as of right now today, unless I mean, as of right now today, unless something changes, I am voting for something changes, I am voting for something changes, I am voting for Trump."

[ __ ] popped off. That surprised me. Mhm. >> And then the next thing that surprised >> And then the next thing that surprised >> And then the next thing that surprised me was Lisa really got mad and like came me was Lisa really got mad and like came me was Lisa really got mad and like came in hot one day and was like, "Okay, I in hot one day and was like, "Okay, I in hot one day and was like, "Okay, I need to understand like how on earth you need to understand like how on earth you need to understand like how on earth you can be voting for Trump.

Tell me what's actually bothering you. Tell me what's actually bothering you. Tell me what's actually bothering you.

But what what are the actual issues? But what what are the actual issues? But that made me realize like if you're not that made me realize like if you're not that made me realize like if you're not paying attention like because Lisa is paying attention like because Lisa is paying attention like because Lisa is not political, she doesn't deal with not political, she doesn't deal with not political, she doesn't deal with that. She completely outsources that to that. She completely outsources that to that. She completely outsources that to me. I handle all the investments. Um she me. I handle all the investments. Um she me. I handle all the investments. Um she can't vote anyway. But, you know, even can't vote anyway. But, you know, even can't vote anyway. But, you know, even if she could, I believe strongly that we if she could, I believe strongly that we if she could, I believe strongly that we would come to a consensus. And if we would come to a consensus. And if we would come to a consensus. And if we didn't, whatever. Like, I don't need my didn't, whatever. Like, I don't need my didn't, whatever. Like, I don't need my wife to vote the way that I vote. But wife to vote the way that I vote. But wife to vote the way that I vote. But because she's not going to engage in because she's not going to engage in because she's not going to engage in that stuff, she's going to ask me like, that stuff, she's going to ask me like, that stuff, she's going to ask me like, "Okay, walk me through the different "Okay, walk me through the different "Okay, walk me through the different issues, blah, blah, blah." So, in that issues, blah, blah, blah." So, in that issues, blah, blah, blah." So, in that scenario, I realized if you're not scenario, I realized if you're not scenario, I realized if you're not paying attention, Trump just seems like paying attention, Trump just seems like paying attention, Trump just seems like a demon. And so, that was like, oh man, a demon. And so, that was like, oh man, a demon. And so, that was like, oh man, we really are at a different political we really are at a different political we really are at a different political moment. moment. moment. >> Um, and then one thing I'd want to add >> Um, and then one thing I'd want to add >> Um, and then one thing I'd want to add is growing up, it was never a big deal. is growing up, it was never a big deal. is growing up, it was never a big deal. like in England and look maybe it's like in England and look maybe it's like in England and look maybe it's changed I haven't lived the fact that changed I haven't lived the fact that changed I haven't lived the fact that two people were together and had two people were together and had two people were together and had political differences so I mentioned political differences so I mentioned political differences so I mentioned this in the episode but my dad voted this in the episode but my dad voted this in the episode but my dad voted Labor and he was in finance and my mom Labor and he was in finance and my mom Labor and he was in finance and my mom voted conservative and she was a voted conservative and she was a voted conservative and she was a stay-at-home supportive wife and so I stay-at-home supportive wife and so I stay-at-home supportive wife and so I would hear often my mom be like yeah would hear often my mom be like yeah would hear often my mom be like yeah your dad votes for labor I think you your dad votes for labor I think you your dad votes for labor I think you know money is like our finances and know money is like our finances and know money is like our finances and where we're going is actually really where we're going is actually really where we're going is actually really important so that's why I vote for important so that's why I vote for important so that's why I vote for conservative I would go to my dad like, conservative I would go to my dad like, conservative I would go to my dad like, "Dad, why do you vote for Labor?" He's "Dad, why do you vote for Labor?" He's "Dad, why do you vote for Labor?" He's like, "Because I would rather lose more like, "Because I would rather lose more like, "Because I would rather lose more money than gain money, but I would, money than gain money, but I would, money than gain money, but I would, sorry, I I don't mind losing more money sorry, I I don't mind losing more money sorry, I I don't mind losing more money from taxes and stuff like that. What I from taxes and stuff like that. What I from taxes and stuff like that. What I really care about is Labor telling me really care about is Labor telling me really care about is Labor telling me that they're going to get the Turks out that they're going to get the Turks out that they're going to get the Turks out of Cypress." So, Tur Turkey invaded of Cypress." So, Tur Turkey invaded of Cypress." So, Tur Turkey invaded Cyprus. That was what my dad cared Cyprus. That was what my dad cared Cyprus. That was what my dad cared about. So, I just grew up in a world about. So, I just grew up in a world about. So, I just grew up in a world where you can have two people from where you can have two people from where you can have two people from different opinions caring about different opinions caring about different opinions caring about different things and then respecting different things and then respecting different things and then respecting each other. So, Tom and I have lived our each other. So, Tom and I have lived our each other. So, Tom and I have lived our lives like kind of with very similar lives like kind of with very similar lives like kind of with very similar thoughts. the first time you weren't thoughts. the first time you weren't thoughts. the first time you weren't voting for Trump and it wasn't until voting for Trump and it wasn't until voting for Trump and it wasn't until this time that I was like okay he's this time that I was like okay he's this time that I was like okay he's changed his mind I support him we're changed his mind I support him we're changed his mind I support him we're talking through it but the world is talking through it but the world is talking through it but the world is freaking is literally freaking out and freaking is literally freaking out and freaking is literally freaking out and that was where I was like something has that was where I was like something has that was where I was like something has changed in society in the world that no changed in society in the world that no changed in society in the world that no longer existed when I was a kid that's longer existed when I was a kid that's longer existed when I was a kid that's where it was like this is now important where it was like this is now important where it was like this is now important that we cannot ignore that we cannot ignore that we cannot ignore >> copy um a lot of people are asking >> copy um a lot of people are asking >> copy um a lot of people are asking whether your political you haven't you whether your political you haven't you whether your political you haven't you not voting haven't voted not voting haven't voted not voting haven't voted >> so here's the truth I I I can't vote I'm >> so here's the truth I I I can't vote I'm >> so here's the truth I I I can't vote I'm not Um, I'm a um what are they called? not Um, I'm a um what are they called? not Um, I'm a um what are they called? >> Card holder. >> Card holder. >> Card holder. >> Legal alien. >> Legal alien. >> Legal alien. >> Got it. Got it. >> Got it. Got it. >> Got it. Got it. >> That always made me laugh. Um, so I >> That always made me laugh. Um, so I >> That always made me laugh. Um, so I can't vote. But here's the thing. If I can't vote. But here's the thing. If I can't vote. But here's the thing. If I could, and I actually didn't get a could, and I actually didn't get a could, and I actually didn't get a chance to say this in the episode. If I chance to say this in the episode. If I chance to say this in the episode. If I could, I don't know if I would have could, I don't know if I would have could, I don't know if I would have voted because I despise Trump more than voted because I despise Trump more than voted because I despise Trump more than anything. Like a you called him a moral anything. Like a you called him a moral anything. Like a you called him a moral monster, and that's exactly the right monster, and that's exactly the right monster, and that's exactly the right words. As a woman, I cannot vote for a words.

I just can sleep at night and be proud of myself. The problem is and be proud of myself. The problem is and be proud of myself. The problem is there was the other side uh the there was the other side uh the there was the other side uh the Democrats where certain things were Democrats where certain things were Democrats where certain things were happening that I that I also think were happening that I that I also think were happening that I that I also think were taking the rights away from women. So taking the rights away from women. So taking the rights away from women. So for instance, why were you laughing? for instance, why were you laughing? for instance, why were you laughing? >> She's not American, so deport her. Oh >> She's not American, so deport her. Oh >> She's not American, so deport her. Oh [laughter] [laughter] [laughter] >> well, we actually talk about that as >> well, we actually talk about that as >> well, we actually talk about that as well. So um I also noticed the other well. So um I also noticed the other well. So um I also noticed the other side were also taking rights away from side were also taking rights away from side were also taking rights away from women. So the fact that um and I don't women. So the fact that um and I don't women. So the fact that um and I don't necessarily talk about this in public, necessarily talk about this in public, necessarily talk about this in public, but that a man she says in a public but that a man she says in a public but that a man she says in a public form. form. form. >> Yeah. But that a man can go into a >> Yeah. But that a man can go into a >> Yeah. But that a man can go into a woman's dressing room, just say that he woman's dressing room, just say that he woman's dressing room, just say that he is woman, and it's okay that he walks is woman, and it's okay that he walks is woman, and it's okay that he walks around naked with his penis out. Like, I around naked with his penis out. Like, I around naked with his penis out. Like, I don't know if you saw that video with don't know if you saw that video with don't know if you saw that video with that. In fact, you guys showed it. That that. In fact, you guys showed it. That that. In fact, you guys showed it. That woman that was freaking out in the gym, woman that was freaking out in the gym, woman that was freaking out in the gym, she's like, I'm black, I'm a lesbian, she's like, I'm black, I'm a lesbian, she's like, I'm black, I'm a lesbian, and I'm telling you this isn't right. and I'm telling you this isn't right. and I'm telling you this isn't right. >> And so, that also impacts me and that >> And so, that also impacts me and that >> And so, that also impacts me and that also bothered me that I think women's also bothered me that I think women's also bothered me that I think women's rights are being lost over there. So, rights are being lost over there. So, rights are being lost over there. So, the truth is I think I would have been the truth is I think I would have been the truth is I think I would have been really freaking stuck in the middle. So really freaking stuck in the middle. So really freaking stuck in the middle. So I know that isn't concrete answer. I know that isn't concrete answer. I know that isn't concrete answer. >> And then um >> And then um >> And then um >> so hold on just to wrap that up. So this >> so hold on just to wrap that up. So this >> so hold on just to wrap that up. So this was part of how I felt when Lisa came to was part of how I felt when Lisa came to was part of how I felt when Lisa came to me was like listen you have you're a me was like listen you have you're a me was like listen you have you're a good moral thinker but you're not good moral thinker but you're not good moral thinker but you're not politically active. And so my big beef politically active. And so my big beef politically active. And so my big beef was people are making decisions in a way was people are making decisions in a way was people are making decisions in a way that are from where I'm sitting that are from where I'm sitting that are from where I'm sitting completely nonsensical because they completely nonsensical because they completely nonsensical because they don't even know what they want the world don't even know what they want the world don't even know what they want the world aimed at. They don't know what aimed at. They don't know what aimed at. They don't know what politician means what. They just know politician means what. They just know politician means what. They just know headlines. they know they're getting headlines. they know they're getting headlines. they know they're getting heat for this that or the other. And so heat for this that or the other. And so heat for this that or the other. And so when we had the conversation, it was when we had the conversation, it was when we had the conversation, it was walk me through what's your northstar? walk me through what's your northstar? walk me through what's your northstar? Like where do you want to get? What do Like where do you want to get? What do Like where do you want to get? What do you care the most about? And then let's you care the most about? And then let's you care the most about? And then let's look at the different candidates. And if look at the different candidates. And if look at the different candidates. And if you end up walking away going, okay, I you end up walking away going, okay, I you end up walking away going, okay, I can't vote for that guy because I don't can't vote for that guy because I don't can't vote for that guy because I don't share. Like if Lisa had said, I don't share. Like if Lisa had said, I don't share. Like if Lisa had said, I don't care about the economic survival of the care about the economic survival of the care about the economic survival of the middle class. That doesn't matter to me. middle class. That doesn't matter to me. middle class. That doesn't matter to me. I don't care about sliding into I don't care about sliding into I don't care about sliding into socialism. That doesn't matter to me. I socialism. That doesn't matter to me. I socialism. That doesn't matter to me. I just can't have a guy that would have just can't have a guy that would have just can't have a guy that would have ever in his life said something like ever in his life said something like ever in his life said something like that. And that's my northstar is that. And that's my northstar is that. And that's my northstar is abortion is the only thing I care about. abortion is the only thing I care about. abortion is the only thing I care about. And so, yeah, if I had the ability to And so, yeah, if I had the ability to And so, yeah, if I had the ability to vote, I would do that. And I'm really vote, I would do that. And I'm really vote, I would do that. And I'm really hurt or disgusted or whatever that hurt or disgusted or whatever that hurt or disgusted or whatever that you're voting the way that you're you're voting the way that you're you're voting the way that you're voting. But that's not how the voting. But that's not how the voting. But that's not how the conversation went. Conversation went, conversation went. Conversation went, conversation went. Conversation went, okay, lay out your north star. Oh, it's okay, lay out your north star. Oh, it's okay, lay out your north star. Oh, it's very similar to mine. Uh, let me tell very similar to mine. Uh, let me tell very similar to mine. Uh, let me tell you why I think he's the right play. No you why I think he's the right play. No you why I think he's the right play. No one can know. You can't see the future one can know. You can't see the future one can know. You can't see the future clearly, but here's how I think this is clearly, but here's how I think this is clearly, but here's how I think this is all going to play out. Um, and then she all going to play out. Um, and then she all going to play out. Um, and then she walked away not necessarily going, walked away not necessarily going, walked away not necessarily going, "Okay, like if I had a chance to vote, I "Okay, like if I had a chance to vote, I "Okay, like if I had a chance to vote, I too would vote for Trump." But she was too would vote for Trump." But she was too would vote for Trump." But she was like, "I at least understand where like, "I at least understand where like, "I at least understand where you're coming from." Because I she came you're coming from." Because I she came you're coming from." Because I she came into it feeling like, "Wait, if you into it feeling like, "Wait, if you into it feeling like, "Wait, if you could vote for that guy there there is a could vote for that guy there there is a could vote for that guy there there is a disconnect between how I've mentally disconnect between how I've mentally disconnect between how I've mentally mapped you mapped you mapped you >> and the way that you actually are." And >> and the way that you actually are." And >> and the way that you actually are." And at the end of the conversation, she was at the end of the conversation, she was at the end of the conversation, she was like, "Actually, no. My mental map of like, "Actually, no. My mental map of like, "Actually, no. My mental map of you is accurate. the way that you see you is accurate. the way that you see you is accurate. the way that you see the political situation is very the political situation is very the political situation is very different than I assumed. And so that's different than I assumed. And so that's different than I assumed. And so that's the thing that I'm always trying to get the thing that I'm always trying to get the thing that I'm always trying to get people to do is what are your base people to do is what are your base people to do is what are your base assumptions? Like the things that you're assumptions? Like the things that you're assumptions? Like the things that you're doing are predicated on something. Now, doing are predicated on something. Now, doing are predicated on something. Now, you can attack my base assumptions. Like you can attack my base assumptions. Like you can attack my base assumptions. Like in hindsight, the thing that I got wrong in hindsight, the thing that I got wrong in hindsight, the thing that I got wrong about Trump, I never could have um I about Trump, I never could have um I about Trump, I never could have um I wildly underestimated how chaotic he was wildly underestimated how chaotic he was wildly underestimated how chaotic he was going to be.

Thank you for explaining as well. Um, I I absolutely think it as well. Um, I I absolutely think it as well. Um, I I absolutely think it will. I think that look, there'll be two will. I think that look, there'll be two will. I think that look, there'll be two sides to it. Teaching women to stay sides to it. Teaching women to stay sides to it. Teaching women to stay silent in that instance. Obviously, it's silent in that instance. Obviously, it's silent in that instance. Obviously, it's horrific. Like, the thing that I fight horrific.

Now, I also think, oh god, learn that. Now, I also think, oh god, it's like that's partly why I did the it's like that's partly why I did the it's like that's partly why I did the episode because episode because episode because as a woman, voting for a guy that says as a woman, voting for a guy that says as a woman, voting for a guy that says it's okay to touch a woman there, to be it's okay to touch a woman there, to be it's okay to touch a woman there, to be in the Epstein files, to do all the in the Epstein files, to do all the in the Epstein files, to do all the horrific things he's done is also horrific things he's done is also horrific things he's done is also troubling to me because I want to make troubling to me because I want to make troubling to me because I want to make sure that women know what a man should sure that women know what a man should sure that women know what a man should be.

That's perfectly acceptable." no. That's perfectly acceptable." >> No. What was I worried about? All right. >> No. What was I worried about? All right. >> No. What was I worried about? All right. Thank you for pushing me. I was truly I Thank you for pushing me. I was truly I Thank you for pushing me. I was truly I think worried more because I know you think worried more because I know you think worried more because I know you sexual abuse. You would never You've sexual abuse.

Obviously, sexual abuse is you've never Obviously, sexual abuse is you've never Obviously, sexual abuse is you've never done before. So, um for me, I think the done before. So, um for me, I think the done before. So, um for me, I think the thing that I was worried about was thing that I was worried about was thing that I was worried about was abortion. abortion. abortion. >> There we go. That's what I thought when >> There we go. That's what I thought when >> There we go. That's what I thought when you asked it. I was like, "Oh, this is you asked it. I was like, "Oh, this is you asked it. I was like, "Oh, this is the one she was worried about." That was the one she was worried about." That was the one she was worried about." That was the one I was worried about because that the one I was worried about because that the one I was worried about because that was the one that I was like, how how can was the one that I was like, how how can was the one that I was like, how how can you live in a world where you can say a you live in a world where you can say a you live in a world where you can say a woman can go and get raped and she can't woman can go and get raped and she can't woman can go and get raped and she can't have an abortion? [sighs] have an abortion? [sighs] have an abortion? [sighs] That's so hard. I was like, you just That's so hard. I was like, you just That's so hard. I was like, you just can't. You just can't. Like, I can't. can't. You just can't. Like, I can't. can't. You just can't. Like, I can't. >> What would you do if I was like, yeah, >> What would you do if I was like, yeah, >> What would you do if I was like, yeah, that's how it should be. that's how it should be. that's how it should be. >> Yeah. then we need to talk because going >> Yeah. then we need to talk because going >> Yeah. then we need to talk because going I brought this up on the uh in the I brought this up on the uh in the I brought this up on the uh in the interview and I've never said it interview and I've never said it interview and I've never said it publicly but that was the first time is publicly but that was the first time is publicly but that was the first time is I had an abortion when I was 18 and so I had an abortion when I was 18 and so I had an abortion when I was 18 and so now that's part of my I don't want to now that's part of my I don't want to now that's part of my I don't want to say identity cuz that's a bit strong. say identity cuz that's a bit strong. say identity cuz that's a bit strong. It's part of my experience. So if you're It's part of my experience. So if you're It's part of my experience. So if you're like yeah I I think that that's evil. like yeah I I think that that's evil. like yeah I I think that that's evil. I'd have to reestablish who you are, why I'd have to reestablish who you are, why I'd have to reestablish who you are, why you think it's evil, and if that then you think it's evil, and if that then you think it's evil, and if that then rubs against our value system, and we rubs against our value system, and we rubs against our value system, and we spoke about this a lot, then we would spoke about this a lot, then we would spoke about this a lot, then we would have a problem because it's where our have a problem because it's where our have a problem because it's where our value systems would collide. That's value systems would collide. That's value systems would collide. That's where the problem is. And I even asked, where the problem is. And I even asked, where the problem is. And I even asked, do you think abortion is evil? Like I do you think abortion is evil? Like I do you think abortion is evil? Like I had to ask you that straight out because had to ask you that straight out because had to ask you that straight out because sometimes it does become that black and sometimes it does become that black and sometimes it does become that black and white. And for me, that was the really white. And for me, that was the really white. And for me, that was the really hard thing. And it's still hard for me hard thing. And it's still hard for me hard thing. And it's still hard for me even to talk now about it on the live. even to talk now about it on the live. even to talk now about it on the live. So, apologies if I'm stumbling a little.

So the episode really is our religion. So the episode really is our religion. So the episode really is all the things that a lot of couples all the things that a lot of couples all the things that a lot of couples don't survive and I bring out stats on don't survive and I bring out stats on don't survive and I bring out stats on each section but one of them was each section but one of them was each section but one of them was religion. I met Tom I was Greek Orthodox religion. I met Tom I was Greek Orthodox religion. I met Tom I was Greek Orthodox and he was atheist but he still got and he was atheist but he still got and he was atheist but he still got christened. So I don't know if that's christened. So I don't know if that's christened. So I don't know if that's part of your problem but that was also part of your problem but that was also part of your problem but that was also something that we spoke about and then something that we spoke about and then something that we spoke about and then I'll leave you to say how did we get I'll leave you to say how did we get I'll leave you to say how did we get through it? through it? through it? >> So for me it's a really simple question. >> So for me it's a really simple question. >> So for me it's a really simple question. uh you're going to spend a lot more time uh you're going to spend a lot more time uh you're going to spend a lot more time interacting with somebody's core values interacting with somebody's core values interacting with somebody's core values than you are whatever the surface level than you are whatever the surface level than you are whatever the surface level liberal, Republican, whatever that that liberal, Republican, whatever that that liberal, Republican, whatever that that stuff is um stuff is um stuff is um far less material. Are you having fun far less material. Are you having fun far less material. Are you having fun with the person? Do you guys enjoy each with the person? Do you guys enjoy each with the person? Do you guys enjoy each other's company? Uh are there things you other's company? Uh are there things you other's company? Uh are there things you enjoy doing together? If you're down, enjoy doing together? If you're down, enjoy doing together? If you're down, are they going to pick you up? Uh are are they going to pick you up? Uh are are they going to pick you up? Uh are they somebody that you're invested in they somebody that you're invested in they somebody that you're invested in such that you would pick them up and such that you would pick them up and such that you would pick them up and they're down? Those things matter a lot. they're down? Those things matter a lot. they're down? Those things matter a lot. core values matter a lot just because core values matter a lot just because core values matter a lot just because they seep out in a lot of things. But I they seep out in a lot of things. But I they seep out in a lot of things. But I imagine I share a lot of core values imagine I share a lot of core values imagine I share a lot of core values with people that are exactly polar with people that are exactly polar with people that are exactly polar opposite of me politically. And the opposite of me politically. And the opposite of me politically. And the reason is I think from an evolutionary reason is I think from an evolutionary reason is I think from an evolutionary perspective, you have to have cohesion perspective, you have to have cohesion perspective, you have to have cohesion in the group. And we're living in a in the group. And we're living in a in the group. And we're living in a weird time where it feels like uh weird time where it feels like uh weird time where it feels like uh Democrats and Republicans, which by the Democrats and Republicans, which by the Democrats and Republicans, which by the way, I don't identify as a Democrat or way, I don't identify as a Democrat or way, I don't identify as a Democrat or Republican. I think being on a team is a Republican. I think being on a team is a Republican. I think being on a team is a stupid idea. But if you take them as stupid idea. But if you take them as stupid idea. But if you take them as proxies for leaning left or leaning proxies for leaning left or leaning proxies for leaning left or leaning right, I definitely have a temperament right, I definitely have a temperament right, I definitely have a temperament that leans right as we sort of map these that leans right as we sort of map these that leans right as we sort of map these things. And I think evolutionarily you things. And I think evolutionarily you things. And I think evolutionarily you need people that both lean left and lean need people that both lean left and lean need people that both lean left and lean right. Um, and so you wouldn't be able right. Um, and so you wouldn't be able right. Um, and so you wouldn't be able to have cohesive society if underlying to have cohesive society if underlying to have cohesive society if underlying that though we didn't have shared core that though we didn't have shared core that though we didn't have shared core values. And so be if you have shared values. And so be if you have shared values. And so be if you have shared core values with the person that you're core values with the person that you're core values with the person that you're in a relationship with regardless of in a relationship with regardless of in a relationship with regardless of liberal Republican um those are just liberal Republican um those are just liberal Republican um those are just methods of creating a group dynamic such methods of creating a group dynamic such methods of creating a group dynamic such that there's no pathology right because that there's no pathology right because that there's no pathology right because the left has pathology the right has the left has pathology the right has the left has pathology the right has pathology and the way that we keep those pathology and the way that we keep those pathology and the way that we keep those personalities from spiraling off into personalities from spiraling off into personalities from spiraling off into space is that they keep each other in space is that they keep each other in space is that they keep each other in check. So that to me says evolution check. So that to me says evolution check. So that to me says evolution knows you guys are going to share core knows you guys are going to share core knows you guys are going to share core values. you just represent different values. you just represent different values. you just represent different sides of the potential pathological sides of the potential pathological sides of the potential pathological um spectrum. So you you check each other um spectrum. So you you check each other um spectrum. So you you check each other and when you don't share the core and when you don't share the core and when you don't share the core values, you have a problem. But if you values, you have a problem. But if you values, you have a problem. But if you guys do and you have fun with each guys do and you have fun with each guys do and you have fun with each other, I don't see an issue. So it other, I don't see an issue. So it other, I don't see an issue. So it becomes about identifying because he's becomes about identifying because he's becomes about identifying because he's asking the question for a reason. So asking the question for a reason. So asking the question for a reason. So there's something that they're butting there's something that they're butting there's something that they're butting heads on. It could be that he needs her heads on. It could be that he needs her heads on. It could be that he needs her to believe what he believes to be to believe what he believes to be to believe what he believes to be comfortable. Okay, that's a you problem, comfortable. Okay, that's a you problem, comfortable. Okay, that's a you problem, not a her problem. It could be that not a her problem. It could be that not a her problem. It could be that she's overly emotional and it's not she's overly emotional and it's not she's overly emotional and it's not about her being liberal. It's about her about her being liberal. It's about her about her being liberal. It's about her being emotional and so he doesn't know being emotional and so he doesn't know being emotional and so he doesn't know how to interface with a world where how to interface with a world where how to interface with a world where emotions are a thing. Part of the reason emotions are a thing. Part of the reason emotions are a thing. Part of the reason like for me a major breakthrough for me like for me a major breakthrough for me like for me a major breakthrough for me was when I realized that estrogen in and was when I realized that estrogen in and was when I realized that estrogen in and of itself makes being uncomfortable in a of itself makes being uncomfortable in a of itself makes being uncomfortable in a problem perfectly acceptable. Then my problem perfectly acceptable. Then my problem perfectly acceptable. Then my wife made sense to me all of a sudden wife made sense to me all of a sudden wife made sense to me all of a sudden because I'm like, wait, you're telling because I'm like, wait, you're telling because I'm like, wait, you're telling me there's a problem, but you don't want me there's a problem, but you don't want me there's a problem, but you don't want a solution. The way that I feel when a solution. The way that I feel when a solution. The way that I feel when there's a problem is that like it is a there's a problem is that like it is a there's a problem is that like it is a visceral biological need to make that visceral biological need to make that visceral biological need to make that problem go away. problem go away. problem go away. >> And so I realized, oh, you don't >> And so I realized, oh, you don't >> And so I realized, oh, you don't actually have that feeling. So you're actually have that feeling. So you're actually have that feeling. So you're not sitting in the same feeling I am. not sitting in the same feeling I am. not sitting in the same feeling I am. You feel completely fine there. And bad You feel completely fine there. And bad You feel completely fine there. And bad feelings to you are not a thing that I feelings to you are not a thing that I feelings to you are not a thing that I have to get away from. And it reminded have to get away from. And it reminded have to get away from. And it reminded me that pain is actually broken up into me that pain is actually broken up into me that pain is actually broken up into two dimensions in the brain. They you two dimensions in the brain. They you two dimensions in the brain. They you can actually track this. There's the can actually track this. There's the can actually track this. There's the dimension that said this stimulus is dimension that said this stimulus is dimension that said this stimulus is painful. And then there's the dimension painful. And then there's the dimension painful. And then there's the dimension that says pain is bad. And they're are that says pain is bad. And they're are that says pain is bad. And they're are separate things. And so estrogen makes separate things. And so estrogen makes separate things. And so estrogen makes it such that a complicated problem that it such that a complicated problem that it such that a complicated problem that may make you cry, may make you cry, may make you cry, the fact that you're crying and the fact that you're crying and the fact that you're crying and emotional about it isn't bad. And so men emotional about it isn't bad. And so men emotional about it isn't bad. And so men and women just like collide off of each and women just like collide off of each and women just like collide off of each other because we have what I'll liken to other because we have what I'll liken to other because we have what I'll liken to a biological imperative to solve that a biological imperative to solve that a biological imperative to solve that problem. And so now you're asking me problem. And so now you're asking me problem. And so now you're asking me like to sit over here starving to death like to sit over here starving to death like to sit over here starving to death while you eat a meal. So the thing while you eat a meal. So the thing while you eat a meal. So the thing you're going through is deeply you're going through is deeply you're going through is deeply satisfying to you and it's deeply satisfying to you and it's deeply satisfying to you and it's deeply unsatisfying to me. And the longer we unsatisfying to me. And the longer we unsatisfying to me. And the longer we spend together, the hungrier I get to spend together, the hungrier I get to spend together, the hungrier I get to get out of this state, the stronger my get out of this state, the stronger my get out of this state, the stronger my impulse is to flee and go solve the impulse is to flee and go solve the impulse is to flee and go solve the problem. And so that like opposite problem. And so that like opposite problem. And so that like opposite biological drives is so jarring when biological drives is so jarring when biological drives is so jarring when you're put together in a relationship. you're put together in a relationship. you're put together in a relationship. So he may need to find his way to So he may need to find his way to So he may need to find his way to navigate through that because if she navigate through that because if she navigate through that because if she expects you to feel the way she feels, expects you to feel the way she feels, expects you to feel the way she feels, problem. If you expect her to feel the problem. If you expect her to feel the problem. If you expect her to feel the way that you feel, problem. So it's like way that you feel, problem. So it's like way that you feel, problem. So it's like you just have to have a mental switch you just have to have a mental switch you just have to have a mental switch that goes, "Oh, a contribution that I that goes, "Oh, a contribution that I that goes, "Oh, a contribution that I make to my wife and my marriage is I'm make to my wife and my marriage is I'm make to my wife and my marriage is I'm going to sit here deeply unpleasant going to sit here deeply unpleasant going to sit here deeply unpleasant >> to make her feel good." and that later >> to make her feel good." and that later >> to make her feel good." and that later she's going to need to reciprocate in she's going to need to reciprocate in she's going to need to reciprocate in some way. And when you have that some way. And when you have that some way. And when you have that balance, you're fine. But that one is balance, you're fine. But that one is balance, you're fine. But that one is maybe the single biggest way that men maybe the single biggest way that men maybe the single biggest way that men and women misunderstand each other. and women misunderstand each other. and women misunderstand each other. >> Oh, that was good. That was a banger. >> Oh, that was good. That was a banger. >> Oh, that was good. That was a banger. Um, we got another super chat. Um, we got another super chat.

I I can't comment on that because I'm just can't comment on that because I'm just can't comment on that because I'm just not knowledgeable enough and haven't not knowledgeable enough and haven't not knowledgeable enough and haven't done a deep dive. So, um done a deep dive. So, um done a deep dive. So, um >> Okay, let me ask you. Let me make it >> Okay, let me ask you. Let me make it >> Okay, let me ask you.
