Well, I started my business when 296 00:14:12,492 --> 00:14:16,333 Speaker 15: I've been in a career in the medical building pharmacy 297 00:14:16,453 --> 00:14:18,893 Speaker 15: for many years since I started when I was seventeen 298 00:14:19,013 --> 00:14:21,373 Speaker 15: years old. So I've been on and off in that 299 00:14:21,453 --> 00:14:25,573 Speaker 15: business for quite a long time. And then we had 300 00:14:25,613 --> 00:14:29,453 Speaker 15: a place that we had another dwelling on it, and 301 00:14:29,693 --> 00:14:31,653 Speaker 15: you know, we moved out of that and moved into 302 00:14:31,653 --> 00:14:33,693 Speaker 15: the main house type of thing. We thought, what are 303 00:14:33,693 --> 00:14:37,933 Speaker 15: we going to do with this place? And I thought, oh, well, 304 00:14:36,733 --> 00:14:40,813 Speaker 15: I'll set up a bed and breakfast and see what happened. 305 00:14:40,813 --> 00:14:42,773 Speaker 15: Because there wasn't much where we were, and it was 306 00:14:42,773 --> 00:14:45,013 Speaker 15: on the way north and south and things like that. 307 00:14:45,173 --> 00:14:48,373 Speaker 15: And I quite like people and like, you know, for 308 00:14:48,453 --> 00:14:50,213 Speaker 15: them to have a nice stay in New Zealand when 309 00:14:50,253 --> 00:14:53,653 Speaker 15: they arrived. So that's what I did. Yeah, and that 310 00:14:53,733 --> 00:14:56,933 Speaker 15: was at the age of fifty. It was two thousand 311 00:14:56,973 --> 00:15:02,293 Speaker 15: and nine for eight hour old. But yeah, I really 312 00:15:02,413 --> 00:15:05,293 Speaker 15: enjoy it. I just love it. And I then was 313 00:15:05,453 --> 00:15:08,533 Speaker 15: retired from the pharmacy world about nearly three years go 314 00:15:08,613 --> 00:15:12,613 Speaker 15: now and still carried on with the other one. And yeah, 315 00:15:12,733 --> 00:15:14,893 Speaker 15: it's good. It was a bit of a leap of 316 00:15:15,053 --> 00:15:17,813 Speaker 15: face and we'll see what happens. But I think it's 317 00:15:17,813 --> 00:15:18,253 Speaker 15: plaid off. 318 00:15:18,733 --> 00:15:20,973 Speaker 2: So we got a lot of people the texting and saying, look, 319 00:15:21,013 --> 00:15:23,052 Speaker 2: I just don't have the energy to do do this 320 00:15:23,133 --> 00:15:26,453 Speaker 2: kind of thing. But at fifty you had the energy. 321 00:15:27,613 --> 00:15:30,253 Speaker 15: Yes, it was interesting because I was still working part 322 00:15:30,373 --> 00:15:32,532 Speaker 15: time in the farms, you know where I saved it. 323 00:15:32,933 --> 00:15:35,493 Speaker 15: So it got quite interesting because we were part of 324 00:15:35,493 --> 00:15:38,813 Speaker 15: a three day walk at one stage, and that was 325 00:15:38,853 --> 00:15:41,973 Speaker 15: exciting when we had all these people coming who demanded 326 00:15:42,053 --> 00:15:45,533 Speaker 15: lunch and breakfast and dinner, et cetera. And it was 327 00:15:45,533 --> 00:15:47,053 Speaker 15: a bit of juggling. But with the help of my 328 00:15:47,133 --> 00:15:49,453 Speaker 15: family and things, we worked on it. And well it's 329 00:15:49,533 --> 00:15:51,373 Speaker 15: hard work. It was, you know, you went to be tired, 330 00:15:51,413 --> 00:15:52,613 Speaker 15: but it was rewarded. 331 00:15:53,293 --> 00:15:56,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean it was a little bit scary 332 00:15:56,333 --> 00:15:58,453 Speaker 3: when you made that decision sharing.

So you could call 596 00:28:57,773 --> 00:29:04,333 Speaker 10: it psychic. I suppose that I made and got apocalypse 597 00:29:04,373 --> 00:29:08,333 Speaker 10: written on it. And because it was, I think an apocalypse, 598 00:29:09,133 --> 00:29:16,013 Speaker 10: an apocalyptic experience and something that has altered my life. 599 00:29:16,213 --> 00:29:17,333 Speaker 2: Can you describe it to us? 600 00:29:17,613 --> 00:29:21,173 Speaker 4: The experience, Well, it's a bit weird. 601 00:29:21,213 --> 00:29:21,613 Speaker 6: Actually. 602 00:29:23,133 --> 00:29:26,133 Speaker 10: I was going through a very nasty, well and upsetting 603 00:29:27,373 --> 00:29:31,933 Speaker 10: breakdown on a long term relationship, and I was suffering 604 00:29:31,973 --> 00:29:38,013 Speaker 10: from things like galloping, insomnia, migrain headaches, et cetera. My 605 00:29:38,053 --> 00:29:41,373 Speaker 10: doctor sent me to the pain Clinic at Auckland Hospital 606 00:29:41,373 --> 00:29:46,733 Speaker 10: where I had therapy and it was absolutely wonderful. It 607 00:29:46,893 --> 00:29:49,813 Speaker 10: really set me back on my fees and cured my 608 00:29:49,893 --> 00:29:54,053 Speaker 10: problems completely. But at the end of my treatment, my 609 00:29:54,213 --> 00:29:58,333 Speaker 10: therapist suggested that he put me into a state of 610 00:29:58,413 --> 00:30:02,173 Speaker 10: hypnosis so that when I left the pain clinic I 611 00:30:02,173 --> 00:30:04,533 Speaker 10: would have a self help tool that I could continue 612 00:30:04,573 --> 00:30:09,093 Speaker 10: to employ and you know, to my migrain benefits. So 613 00:30:09,653 --> 00:30:13,293 Speaker 10: that's what we did, and I had what he called 614 00:30:13,373 --> 00:30:18,453 Speaker 10: peak experience under hypnosis, and that's what started the whole thing. 615 00:30:18,613 --> 00:30:24,333 Speaker 10: And then the synchronicities began and they were absolutely amazing, magical, 616 00:30:24,733 --> 00:30:29,413 Speaker 10: totally magical, and I simply had to follow through. So 617 00:30:29,693 --> 00:30:32,173 Speaker 10: the Oracle Rock is the name of the book and 618 00:30:34,093 --> 00:30:38,453 Speaker 10: written the Oracle Rock because one of the one of 619 00:30:38,493 --> 00:30:41,093 Speaker 10: the places, or perhaps the key place that I visited 620 00:30:41,133 --> 00:30:45,773 Speaker 10: while I was overseas on my pilgrimage was the oracle 621 00:30:45,893 --> 00:30:51,893 Speaker 10: site of Delphi, the you know, the old ruins of Pollo, 622 00:30:52,373 --> 00:30:57,293 Speaker 10: the temple of Apollo delphineas in Delphi in Greece, and 623 00:30:57,373 --> 00:31:00,973 Speaker 10: I went there with my daughter and while I was there, 624 00:31:01,053 --> 00:31:03,453 Speaker 10: I decided to put up to the oracle for direction 625 00:31:03,613 --> 00:31:07,453 Speaker 10: and focus in my life. And I've just kind of 626 00:31:08,453 --> 00:31:11,253 Speaker 10: distinctively picked up a rock from the past which was 627 00:31:11,693 --> 00:31:14,333 Speaker 10: covered in broken bits of rock, you know, thousands of 628 00:31:14,653 --> 00:31:18,213 Speaker 10: some pieces, and I just held this rock. I asked 629 00:31:18,253 --> 00:31:21,933 Speaker 10: the oracle for help, you know, for focus. And when 630 00:31:21,973 --> 00:31:24,453 Speaker 10: I got back to Athens that night, I showed it 631 00:31:24,453 --> 00:31:27,133 Speaker 10: to my daughter. She turned it over and there was 632 00:31:27,253 --> 00:31:29,973 Speaker 10: cracked warn marble on the other side with the letter 633 00:31:30,053 --> 00:31:33,653 Speaker 10: E inside on it. I mean it was you know, 634 00:31:33,653 --> 00:31:35,093 Speaker 10: it wasn't just something that looked. 635 00:31:34,893 --> 00:31:35,973 Speaker 18: Like the letter it was. 636 00:31:36,093 --> 00:31:40,013 Speaker 10: It was the old Greek letter E and which means epsilon, 637 00:31:40,293 --> 00:31:45,093 Speaker 10: and the letter E used to be above the doorway 638 00:31:45,093 --> 00:31:47,973 Speaker 10: and the pronaeus of the of the ancient temple of 639 00:31:48,053 --> 00:31:52,093 Speaker 10: a Collow, and so that there's a whole lot of 640 00:31:52,173 --> 00:31:55,333 Speaker 10: stuff relating to that. And then of course I didn't 641 00:31:55,333 --> 00:31:57,453 Speaker 10: know what it meant. I just thought, wow, you know 642 00:31:57,653 --> 00:32:00,613 Speaker 10: this is this is pretty amazing, and I kept the rock. 643 00:32:01,133 --> 00:32:04,253 Speaker 10: And then I was speaking to a friend of mine 644 00:32:04,253 --> 00:32:07,853 Speaker 10: in Australia and he told me about the letter e 645 00:32:08,093 --> 00:32:12,013 Speaker 10: italon and its relationship to the temple of apollowood Secret 646 00:32:12,853 --> 00:32:18,053 Speaker 10: and so that started it. And then things just went 647 00:32:18,133 --> 00:32:23,493 Speaker 10: on from there that were totally magical and amazing, and 648 00:32:23,573 --> 00:32:27,893 Speaker 10: the trilogy has developed from there because I had this 649 00:32:28,693 --> 00:32:32,933 Speaker 10: experience after the hypnosis at the hospital. I had this 650 00:32:33,053 --> 00:32:36,773 Speaker 10: experience where one morning, after I'd woken up and I 651 00:32:36,813 --> 00:32:41,413 Speaker 10: was sitting having my breakfast, I had this thing where 652 00:32:41,773 --> 00:32:45,613 Speaker 10: it wasn't remembering a dream or anything, very very difficult 653 00:32:45,693 --> 00:32:49,893 Speaker 10: to describe, but I suddenly had this I was a 654 00:32:49,973 --> 00:32:53,933 Speaker 10: world of graduate skeptic, but I had this sudden conviction 655 00:32:54,853 --> 00:32:58,253 Speaker 10: that telepathic dolphins had given me this story and the 656 00:32:58,333 --> 00:33:01,453 Speaker 10: story was there, and I thought, well, that's ridiculous. 657 00:33:01,533 --> 00:33:03,853 Speaker 19: And I mentioned it to my partner, who was in. 658 00:33:03,813 --> 00:33:07,053 Speaker 10: The process of breaking up with and he laughed and said, 659 00:33:07,053 --> 00:33:10,253 Speaker 10: the bigger they are, the harder it fo. So the 660 00:33:10,333 --> 00:33:15,093 Speaker 10: thing issued, I'm an artist, and that would be my job, painting, 661 00:33:15,293 --> 00:33:17,453 Speaker 10: and it was an art tutor on and off and 662 00:33:18,493 --> 00:33:23,533 Speaker 10: over the years, and that I had to just show 663 00:33:23,693 --> 00:33:26,853 Speaker 10: that my teaching job.

So anyway, look, 700 00:35:17,133 --> 00:35:19,053 Speaker 20: it looks like you guys are enjoying yourself, which is 701 00:35:19,093 --> 00:35:23,973 Speaker 20: always nice. I'm sixty sixty one, to be honest, and 702 00:35:24,053 --> 00:35:26,013 Speaker 20: I thought I heard you guys talk and I'm like, well, 703 00:35:26,293 --> 00:35:28,053 Speaker 20: this is not my thing. You know, you talk about 704 00:35:28,093 --> 00:35:32,333 Speaker 20: a success, I'm a failed startup guy. So in fact, 705 00:35:32,373 --> 00:35:34,333 Speaker 20: I just shut down. I had a startup for twelve 706 00:35:34,413 --> 00:35:37,573 Speaker 20: years around innovation. I just shut it down last week, 707 00:35:37,773 --> 00:35:40,573 Speaker 20: you know. So my point is, you know, I guess 708 00:35:40,573 --> 00:35:42,692 Speaker 20: my reason why I called you is I think it's 709 00:35:43,253 --> 00:35:46,172 Speaker 20: it's all around defining success. So what is success? So 710 00:35:46,253 --> 00:35:49,493 Speaker 20: for me, I'm back in the corporate world. I've done 711 00:35:49,493 --> 00:35:52,253 Speaker 20: three or four startups. I didn't I had big customers, 712 00:35:52,293 --> 00:35:54,013 Speaker 20: all that thing. I didn't make the money I wanted 713 00:35:54,013 --> 00:35:54,253 Speaker 20: to make. 714 00:35:54,293 --> 00:35:54,893 Speaker 21: I didn't live the. 715 00:35:54,893 --> 00:35:57,253 Speaker 20: Life I wanted to lie I did in terms of 716 00:35:57,293 --> 00:36:00,093 Speaker 20: following my bliss and doing what I love doing. I'm 717 00:36:00,093 --> 00:36:02,493 Speaker 20: passionate about what I do. So I find myself back 718 00:36:02,533 --> 00:36:05,933 Speaker 20: as as a corporate guy. But I think it comes back, 719 00:36:05,973 --> 00:36:08,573 Speaker 20: I guess, and I didn't realize until I heard El 720 00:36:09,093 --> 00:36:12,093 Speaker 20: talk about I just wrote a book, you know, beyond 721 00:36:12,133 --> 00:36:16,533 Speaker 20: the scoreboard, CONVULTI Cultivating Resilience in young athletes. I forgot 722 00:36:16,533 --> 00:36:16,893 Speaker 20: about that. 723 00:36:16,973 --> 00:36:17,652 Speaker 4: I even did that. 724 00:36:18,293 --> 00:36:20,813 Speaker 20: It's something you know. I've been a coach on the 725 00:36:20,893 --> 00:36:24,013 Speaker 20: side of volunteer basketball coach for the last thirteen years 726 00:36:24,053 --> 00:36:27,293 Speaker 20: in Wellington, so you know, I guess that would be 727 00:36:27,333 --> 00:36:29,613 Speaker 20: later in success in life. But I guess my story 728 00:36:29,813 --> 00:36:33,133 Speaker 20: is I feel like I'm hugely successful. And why is 729 00:36:33,173 --> 00:36:36,133 Speaker 20: that even as I get later in life is because 730 00:36:37,453 --> 00:36:39,373 Speaker 20: no regrets, you know what I'm saying. I mean, I 731 00:36:39,573 --> 00:36:43,093 Speaker 20: backpacked for three years around the world and I didn't 732 00:36:43,093 --> 00:36:45,253 Speaker 20: make money then, so I didn't have the assets that 733 00:36:45,293 --> 00:36:47,973 Speaker 20: other than my other mates had. But you know, it's 734 00:36:48,013 --> 00:36:50,533 Speaker 20: how I think. The critical question in terms of that 735 00:36:50,693 --> 00:36:53,973 Speaker 20: is how do you what do you define success as 736 00:36:54,013 --> 00:36:56,733 Speaker 20: I'm proud of my three failed startups, you know what 737 00:36:56,733 --> 00:36:57,173 Speaker 20: I mean. 738 00:36:57,053 --> 00:36:57,973 Speaker 7: Because I gave it a go. 739 00:36:58,333 --> 00:37:00,813 Speaker 4: Yeah, it didn't work out, but I gave it a go. 740 00:37:01,013 --> 00:37:02,493 Speaker 2: So what does it take to know that it's not 741 00:37:02,533 --> 00:37:03,933 Speaker 2: going to work out? You see the last one you 742 00:37:03,973 --> 00:37:06,973 Speaker 2: shut down last week or twoky, twelve years. At what 743 00:37:07,053 --> 00:37:10,293 Speaker 2: point do you know this isn't worth the energy I'm 744 00:37:10,373 --> 00:37:12,133 Speaker 2: putting into it and it's not going to work out. 745 00:37:13,293 --> 00:37:13,733 Speaker 8: Yeah? 746 00:37:13,853 --> 00:37:14,853 Speaker 20: No, that's a great question. 747 00:37:15,013 --> 00:37:15,333 Speaker 14: I think. 748 00:37:15,573 --> 00:37:17,652 Speaker 20: You know, you get as a as an entrepreneur, as 749 00:37:17,653 --> 00:37:20,093 Speaker 20: a founder, you get attached to your vision and what 750 00:37:20,133 --> 00:37:22,133 Speaker 20: it is and it should just work. So in a 751 00:37:22,213 --> 00:37:24,893 Speaker 20: in a simple simple point there, it's a it was 752 00:37:24,893 --> 00:37:27,533 Speaker 20: around an innovation, an idea management platform. I used to 753 00:37:27,573 --> 00:37:29,293 Speaker 20: live in Japan when I was younger. I got this 754 00:37:29,413 --> 00:37:34,013 Speaker 20: concept everybody should be creative and innovate on the front line. However, 755 00:37:34,373 --> 00:37:37,533 Speaker 20: I realize again and again it didn't matter the companies 756 00:37:37,573 --> 00:37:40,772 Speaker 20: I was dealing with. They're not really committed to innovation. Right. 757 00:37:40,853 --> 00:37:43,613 Speaker 20: You have an evangelist, you have somebody that believes in it, 758 00:37:43,813 --> 00:37:45,693 Speaker 20: but at the end of the day, the executive and 759 00:37:45,773 --> 00:37:48,813 Speaker 20: business will do what business does. And I was in denial. 760 00:37:48,893 --> 00:37:51,813 Speaker 20: I tried everything. You know, that wasn't my full time gig. 761 00:37:51,893 --> 00:37:54,373 Speaker 20: I was the other learning I had, and people talk 762 00:37:54,413 --> 00:37:56,772 Speaker 20: about it. I had multiple startups at the same time. 763 00:37:56,813 --> 00:37:59,692 Speaker 20: You can't do that. Maybe Elon Musk can, but you 764 00:37:59,733 --> 00:38:02,453 Speaker 20: can't do that unless you've got a gigantic brain and 765 00:38:02,493 --> 00:38:03,693 Speaker 20: you only sleep four hours. 766 00:38:03,773 --> 00:38:04,293 Speaker 3: I don't. 767 00:38:04,933 --> 00:38:07,253 Speaker 20: So the reality was, you know, you really when when 768 00:38:07,293 --> 00:38:09,573 Speaker 20: people give advice, I get advice to younger people. If 769 00:38:09,613 --> 00:38:13,453 Speaker 20: I'm mentoring someone, focus on that one thing so hard 770 00:38:13,493 --> 00:38:15,173 Speaker 20: to give it one hundred percent, and then you know, 771 00:38:15,293 --> 00:38:18,853 Speaker 20: because you get a bit delusional. Like all young people. 772 00:38:19,093 --> 00:38:22,133 Speaker 20: You know, all these at the same time, and I 773 00:38:22,133 --> 00:38:24,853 Speaker 20: can raise my three kids and I can do this 774 00:38:25,093 --> 00:38:26,813 Speaker 20: and I can no, you can't. 775 00:38:28,373 --> 00:38:30,573 Speaker 2: So do you think that at sixty one that's it 776 00:38:30,733 --> 00:38:33,133 Speaker 2: for your startups? You know you said you back in 777 00:38:33,133 --> 00:38:36,053 Speaker 2: the corporate world, But would you if the idea came along, 778 00:38:36,093 --> 00:38:38,253 Speaker 2: the right thing came along, you get back into it. 779 00:38:39,613 --> 00:38:42,173 Speaker 20: Oh well, you know, whatever I do, I need to 780 00:38:42,213 --> 00:38:44,893 Speaker 20: love doing. You know that's my mantra I walk away. 781 00:38:44,893 --> 00:38:45,692 Speaker 20: I mean I get paid. 782 00:38:45,693 --> 00:38:45,933 Speaker 2: Well. 783 00:38:46,053 --> 00:38:47,293 Speaker 20: What I do right now. 784 00:38:47,173 --> 00:38:48,453 Speaker 7: Is leading edge in New Zealand. 785 00:38:48,493 --> 00:38:51,973 Speaker 20: It's around digital identity and identity credentials. So I never 786 00:38:52,013 --> 00:38:54,973 Speaker 20: say never, just in case my employers listening. You know, 787 00:38:55,133 --> 00:38:57,413 Speaker 20: as long as I'm passionate and I feel like I 788 00:38:57,413 --> 00:39:00,253 Speaker 20: can roll the dice, I'll do what I need to do. 789 00:39:00,333 --> 00:39:02,693 Speaker 20: But at this stage of my life, I feel like 790 00:39:02,773 --> 00:39:07,093 Speaker 20: if you look back in the side mirror, view mirrors, 791 00:39:07,093 --> 00:39:09,973 Speaker 20: whatever you say, I would say that, yeah, it's been 792 00:39:10,013 --> 00:39:12,213 Speaker 20: successful and I got to continue to do that. And 793 00:39:12,253 --> 00:39:14,373 Speaker 20: the last point I'll say is as long as I 794 00:39:14,533 --> 00:39:17,973 Speaker 20: pass that on to my children in terms of understanding 795 00:39:18,013 --> 00:39:20,333 Speaker 20: what it is. Boom, I'm done. 796 00:39:20,573 --> 00:39:22,213 Speaker 2: Yeah you go. Thank you so much, Steve.

So tell us your story? 860 00:42:07,253 --> 00:42:11,293 Speaker 8: Yeah, so look, basically, I'm originally from India and I 861 00:42:11,453 --> 00:42:14,333 Speaker 8: came to New Zealand when I was very seven. So 862 00:42:14,413 --> 00:42:16,733 Speaker 8: it's really interesting when I heard that someone wants to 863 00:42:16,773 --> 00:42:19,853 Speaker 8: give up at thirty seven, I came to the country 864 00:42:19,853 --> 00:42:23,093 Speaker 8: with precisely eleven hundred dollars in my pocket and I 865 00:42:23,133 --> 00:42:27,093 Speaker 8: didn't know anybody, absolutely, no one. A typical immigrant story 866 00:42:27,413 --> 00:42:31,413 Speaker 8: where I worked hard, long hours weekends, you know, started 867 00:42:31,453 --> 00:42:35,133 Speaker 8: working in retail stores first, like no living and Harby Norman. 868 00:42:35,693 --> 00:42:39,772 Speaker 8: Then eventually entered into a corporate world. Worked with big 869 00:42:39,813 --> 00:42:43,013 Speaker 8: companies like Yellow Pages, Fairfax Media and a few others, 870 00:42:43,173 --> 00:42:48,652 Speaker 8: and I was very successful. And yeah, and last year 871 00:42:48,733 --> 00:42:50,973 Speaker 8: my daughter got married, so I was in a very 872 00:42:51,773 --> 00:42:55,413 Speaker 8: you know, I pressured sales job for last twenty five years, 873 00:42:55,413 --> 00:42:57,573 Speaker 8: and I was I was a bit tired with those 874 00:42:57,613 --> 00:43:00,493 Speaker 8: with those kind of pressures. So I said to myself, 875 00:43:00,493 --> 00:43:02,973 Speaker 8: I didn't want to retire. I'm sixty two now. I 876 00:43:02,973 --> 00:43:05,533 Speaker 8: didn't want to retire because an empty mind is a 877 00:43:05,573 --> 00:43:09,133 Speaker 8: devil's workshop. So I had the Indus we experience of 878 00:43:09,213 --> 00:43:13,413 Speaker 8: about fifteen years in digital marketing. So yeah, I went 879 00:43:13,453 --> 00:43:15,573 Speaker 8: back to India, I joined hands with a bunch of 880 00:43:15,693 --> 00:43:19,093 Speaker 8: really talented guys and I founded my own company here 881 00:43:19,093 --> 00:43:22,093 Speaker 8: in Auckland and we do the same thing. So we 882 00:43:22,133 --> 00:43:27,613 Speaker 8: do website, search engine optimization, Google ads, social media, branding, 883 00:43:27,933 --> 00:43:30,333 Speaker 8: everything and I'm really happy. 884 00:43:32,213 --> 00:43:35,253 Speaker 2: Has been going for about a year, did you say, yes? 885 00:43:35,413 --> 00:43:37,973 Speaker 8: Yes, about about a year. And I'm sixty two now, 886 00:43:37,973 --> 00:43:39,213 Speaker 8: so and I'm not going to stop. 887 00:43:39,373 --> 00:43:41,453 Speaker 15: Yeah, I'm putting too much pressure. 888 00:43:41,813 --> 00:43:44,053 Speaker 8: That is going extremely well. But I'm not putting too 889 00:43:44,093 --> 00:43:46,693 Speaker 8: much pressure onto myself like the corporate world. 890 00:43:47,333 --> 00:43:51,253 Speaker 2: But so have you managed to make yourself sort of 891 00:43:51,293 --> 00:43:55,413 Speaker 2: financially secure enough that you don't have to worry too much? 892 00:43:56,853 --> 00:44:00,653 Speaker 8: Yes, to be honest, simultaneously, I'd built a small portfolio 893 00:44:00,733 --> 00:44:05,212 Speaker 8: of properties as well for myself, nice which actually helped 894 00:44:05,253 --> 00:44:06,013 Speaker 8: me quite a lot. 895 00:44:06,293 --> 00:44:06,493 Speaker 6: You know. 896 00:44:06,973 --> 00:44:09,813 Speaker 8: So I'm a bit financially secured. But you still need 897 00:44:09,853 --> 00:44:10,813 Speaker 8: disposable income. 898 00:44:11,333 --> 00:44:11,933 Speaker 19: You can't just. 899 00:44:11,893 --> 00:44:14,652 Speaker 8: Say because in New Zealand the inflation is too high 900 00:44:14,733 --> 00:44:18,533 Speaker 8: and retirement is very expensive in this country, so you 901 00:44:18,693 --> 00:44:21,293 Speaker 8: need some kind of income. Obviously I'm not making that 902 00:44:21,413 --> 00:44:23,933 Speaker 8: kind of money which I was making in the corporate. 903 00:44:23,493 --> 00:44:26,373 Speaker 14: World, but I'm happy. Yeah, you know, I was my 904 00:44:26,453 --> 00:44:28,053 Speaker 14: own hours. Yeah. 905 00:44:28,093 --> 00:44:30,533 Speaker 2: So for you, you're thinking here and someone say that it 906 00:44:30,693 --> 00:44:33,373 Speaker 2: was this you guys hastling the guy that was giving 907 00:44:33,413 --> 00:44:35,293 Speaker 2: up a forty one. Easy for you to say, what 908 00:44:35,333 --> 00:44:37,973 Speaker 2: do you say? I'm thirty seven, Not that matters, but 909 00:44:38,133 --> 00:44:41,253 Speaker 2: that that's it for me? Why should I do? 910 00:44:41,493 --> 00:44:41,573 Speaker 4: So? 911 00:44:41,733 --> 00:44:43,453 Speaker 2: You would say to that person you were thirty seven 912 00:44:43,493 --> 00:44:47,733 Speaker 2: when you started the path that you're on, and exactly, 913 00:44:48,293 --> 00:44:51,813 Speaker 2: and you've managed to suit yourself up pretty nicely and 914 00:44:52,053 --> 00:44:55,093 Speaker 2: currently just starting again with something that you're enjoying. 915 00:44:56,493 --> 00:44:59,413 Speaker 8: Absolutely. One last thing I'll tell you before I go, 916 00:44:59,653 --> 00:45:03,853 Speaker 8: is I truly believe in self motivation. Like I'm a 917 00:45:03,893 --> 00:45:06,252 Speaker 8: one man bank business now, I have for it from home. 918 00:45:06,293 --> 00:45:09,293 Speaker 8: I don't have anyone to motivate me. Every morning, I 919 00:45:09,333 --> 00:45:12,173 Speaker 8: pushed myself. You know that's really important. 920 00:45:12,493 --> 00:45:15,493 Speaker 2: Yeah, and so do you think you were naturally a 921 00:45:15,613 --> 00:45:17,853 Speaker 2: motivated person? Because a lot of people are texting through 922 00:45:17,853 --> 00:45:19,853 Speaker 2: and saying I just don't have the motivation and I 923 00:45:19,893 --> 00:45:23,253 Speaker 2: don't know where to find it. You found the motivation 924 00:45:23,573 --> 00:45:27,213 Speaker 2: within you? Or did you search for motivation? Did you 925 00:45:27,413 --> 00:45:29,893 Speaker 2: search for mentors to motivate you? How did you how 926 00:45:30,333 --> 00:45:31,373 Speaker 2: did you motivate yourself? 927 00:45:32,173 --> 00:45:36,093 Speaker 8: No, again, it's a typical immigrant story. I had no choice. 928 00:45:36,253 --> 00:45:38,333 Speaker 8: I couldn't go back to my country. I had to 929 00:45:38,373 --> 00:45:43,253 Speaker 8: motivate myself and be successful. English was my second language. 930 00:45:43,293 --> 00:45:44,733 Speaker 8: I couldn't even speak properly. 931 00:45:45,133 --> 00:45:46,933 Speaker 2: You know how long did that take you? Because you 932 00:45:47,253 --> 00:45:49,413 Speaker 2: speak English obviously very well. Now, how long did it 933 00:45:49,413 --> 00:45:52,813 Speaker 2: take you to your get your mind around the language? 934 00:45:53,653 --> 00:45:56,693 Speaker 8: Well, it wasn't that bad because India was ruled by British, 935 00:45:56,733 --> 00:45:57,893 Speaker 8: so I could speak English. 936 00:45:57,973 --> 00:45:59,093 Speaker 4: Yeah, right, but maybe in. 937 00:45:59,093 --> 00:46:01,973 Speaker 8: Last twenty five years after living with you, guys, I'm 938 00:46:01,973 --> 00:46:04,692 Speaker 8: a bit better. I don't still call myself fluent, but 939 00:46:04,773 --> 00:46:05,413 Speaker 8: I'm a bit better. 940 00:46:05,773 --> 00:46:08,333 Speaker 2: Well, I mean you sound pretty fluent to me. Yeah, 941 00:46:08,093 --> 00:46:12,373 Speaker 2: I mean absolutely no problem understanding you at all. So 942 00:46:12,453 --> 00:46:15,053 Speaker 2: you've now that part of it. Yeah, it is an 943 00:46:15,053 --> 00:46:18,813 Speaker 2: interesting one though, but because you do just yeah, I 944 00:46:18,853 --> 00:46:21,093 Speaker 2: mean that not being able to give up as a 945 00:46:21,173 --> 00:46:22,173 Speaker 2: huge motivation. 946 00:46:22,053 --> 00:46:24,373 Speaker 3: Absolutely, you know, not in you're up against it. 947 00:46:24,533 --> 00:46:28,413 Speaker 2: No choice, I guess. But then again, you've got yourself 948 00:46:28,453 --> 00:46:32,413 Speaker 2: out of that situation over time, pushcar, and you've still 949 00:46:32,453 --> 00:46:34,733 Speaker 2: motivated yourself. So obviously at one point you had no 950 00:46:34,813 --> 00:46:36,652 Speaker 2: choice because you arrived there and you couldn't go back 951 00:46:36,693 --> 00:46:38,172 Speaker 2: and you had to make it work. But then say 952 00:46:38,413 --> 00:46:41,093 Speaker 2: fifteen twenty years after that, you were probably getting a 953 00:46:41,093 --> 00:46:44,173 Speaker 2: bit more choice in your life and you still manage 954 00:46:44,173 --> 00:46:45,373 Speaker 2: to be motivated. 955 00:46:46,493 --> 00:46:49,413 Speaker 8: Yeah. Even in my current role right now, I have 956 00:46:49,493 --> 00:46:51,973 Speaker 8: to self motivate myself because I'm trying to reach out 957 00:46:52,013 --> 00:46:54,853 Speaker 8: to my client. So I do hardcore prospecting. I do 958 00:46:55,013 --> 00:46:58,133 Speaker 8: cold calling, and it's the numbers game. If you make 959 00:46:58,213 --> 00:47:01,652 Speaker 8: twenty calls, one person might be interested, but if that 960 00:47:01,693 --> 00:47:04,133 Speaker 8: turns into a business, you've made your day, you know. 961 00:47:04,213 --> 00:47:06,573 Speaker 8: So it's not an easy job. For me as well, 962 00:47:06,613 --> 00:47:10,172 Speaker 8: because it's our industry is very competitive. Yes, so many 963 00:47:10,213 --> 00:47:11,013 Speaker 8: people are doing. 964 00:47:10,813 --> 00:47:11,413 Speaker 14: The same job. 965 00:47:11,493 --> 00:47:13,733 Speaker 8: So to reach out to new prospects and new clients, 966 00:47:13,893 --> 00:47:17,653 Speaker 8: you need motivations. So yeah, without motivation, you can't be 967 00:47:17,653 --> 00:47:18,493 Speaker 8: successful at all. 968 00:47:18,693 --> 00:47:20,893 Speaker 3: Is there ever a point, Pushcar, because I take it 969 00:47:20,973 --> 00:47:23,973 Speaker 3: just by what you were saying. Sometimes you're feeling stressed there, 970 00:47:24,053 --> 00:47:26,293 Speaker 3: or you might wake up and you think, man, maybe 971 00:47:26,333 --> 00:47:28,853 Speaker 3: I just give this up and just retire. Do you 972 00:47:28,933 --> 00:47:30,733 Speaker 3: ever get that thought in your head? Or you just 973 00:47:30,813 --> 00:47:31,652 Speaker 3: love what you're doing now? 974 00:47:31,653 --> 00:47:36,253 Speaker 2: No, the devil's worship, as he said, the devil's workshop, Tyler. 975 00:47:38,373 --> 00:47:41,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's right, walking not's a walking pushcar.

What was 1250 01:01:07,613 --> 01:01:11,293 Speaker 2: the course there at?

Yeah, 1254 01:01:21,693 --> 01:01:22,973 Speaker 3: so if you look that up you'll find it. 1255 01:01:23,213 --> 01:01:24,933 Speaker 2: This textas said, I'm sure there are negative people that 1256 01:01:25,013 --> 01:01:27,773 Speaker 2: wins that like to be unhelpful, but that would be 1257 01:01:27,813 --> 01:01:30,533 Speaker 2: the minority. If you go to them with a positive attitude, 1258 01:01:30,573 --> 01:01:32,453 Speaker 2: they can be very helpful. I know this from personal 1259 01:01:32,493 --> 01:01:34,853 Speaker 2: experience and from others. Yeah, we're just a textas saying 1260 01:01:34,893 --> 01:01:40,493 Speaker 2: that wins were terrible to them and took pleasure and 1261 01:01:40,573 --> 01:01:43,173 Speaker 2: you failing. But you know, if you just go to 1262 01:01:43,173 --> 01:01:45,013 Speaker 2: the workman in some site, where have they got here? 1263 01:01:45,053 --> 01:01:47,453 Speaker 2: Get ready to work courses everything you need to help 1264 01:01:47,493 --> 01:01:49,453 Speaker 2: you get ready to find a job. You can get training, 1265 01:01:49,493 --> 01:01:51,693 Speaker 2: help with cvs and cover leaders, and advice for job 1266 01:01:51,693 --> 01:01:55,253 Speaker 2: interviews getting ready to work, or there's cvs and cover letterers, 1267 01:01:55,373 --> 01:01:58,813 Speaker 2: job interviews, feeling anxious about work, training, study and qualifications. 1268 01:01:59,533 --> 01:02:02,773 Speaker 2: So it seems like there's quite a lot of courses 1269 01:02:02,813 --> 01:02:05,093 Speaker 2: there that you can do. Yeah, you know, and I 1270 01:02:05,093 --> 01:02:08,293 Speaker 2: imagine just I guess, can you try another case work? 1271 01:02:08,493 --> 01:02:10,733 Speaker 3: Definitely if you get a roadblock, try somebody else. Take 1272 01:02:10,733 --> 01:02:11,133 Speaker 3: it higher. 1273 01:02:11,493 --> 01:02:13,853 Speaker 2: If if someone, as that text has said, that is 1274 01:02:14,013 --> 01:02:19,533 Speaker 2: enjoying your failure. The sticks here Minister of Social Liveent 1275 01:02:19,613 --> 01:02:22,853 Speaker 2: does not help. In fact, they are deliberately obstructive. I 1276 01:02:22,893 --> 01:02:25,293 Speaker 2: think they get off on screwing people. I mean, if 1277 01:02:25,293 --> 01:02:27,533 Speaker 2: you come across someone like that, then they go above 1278 01:02:27,573 --> 01:02:27,893 Speaker 2: their head. 1279 01:02:27,973 --> 01:02:31,893 Speaker 3: Yeah, those people in their MESD that's for sure. Yeah, Craig, 1280 01:02:31,933 --> 01:02:32,413 Speaker 3: how are you? 1281 01:02:33,693 --> 01:02:33,813 Speaker 2: I go? 1282 01:02:33,973 --> 01:02:37,573 Speaker 12: This is good, really good topic. I think if you're 1283 01:02:37,573 --> 01:02:41,813 Speaker 12: in your teen's, twenties to early thirties, you definitely have 1284 01:02:41,933 --> 01:02:43,693 Speaker 12: to love what you're doing. You've got to try and 1285 01:02:43,733 --> 01:02:46,213 Speaker 12: make an income out of what you love. But I 1286 01:02:46,253 --> 01:02:49,093 Speaker 12: think if you haven't cracked, but you've got to, then 1287 01:02:49,293 --> 01:02:52,933 Speaker 12: do what you have to do. I was thirty seven, 1288 01:02:54,093 --> 01:02:57,453 Speaker 12: I'd had about thirty five different jobs, dropped out of 1289 01:02:57,493 --> 01:03:04,093 Speaker 12: school fifteen because I was just not academic. And I 1290 01:03:04,453 --> 01:03:07,093 Speaker 12: sat down one day and I wrote, what do I 1291 01:03:07,253 --> 01:03:11,773 Speaker 12: need to make to live to pay the rent, to 1292 01:03:11,853 --> 01:03:14,853 Speaker 12: pay the bills and petrol, food, that kind of thing. 1293 01:03:15,413 --> 01:03:18,013 Speaker 12: And I broke it down to a week to a 1294 01:03:18,093 --> 01:03:22,413 Speaker 12: day to an hour, and I said, right, well, I'm 1295 01:03:22,453 --> 01:03:25,173 Speaker 12: going to go self employed and I'm going to make 1296 01:03:25,213 --> 01:03:29,973 Speaker 12: sure I earned that much every day. And then I 1297 01:03:30,053 --> 01:03:33,133 Speaker 12: worked out what I could do is self employed to 1298 01:03:33,173 --> 01:03:36,853 Speaker 12: earn that money, and is it what I want to do. No, 1299 01:03:37,013 --> 01:03:39,893 Speaker 12: it's not what I've been doing about eighteen years, and 1300 01:03:40,133 --> 01:03:43,573 Speaker 12: every year my goals have gotten bigger and bigger, and 1301 01:03:43,933 --> 01:03:46,213 Speaker 12: I don't like what I do, but I love what 1302 01:03:46,293 --> 01:03:48,773 Speaker 12: I That's what I do enables me to do the 1303 01:03:48,853 --> 01:03:51,773 Speaker 12: things I love. That makes sense. 1304 01:03:51,813 --> 01:03:55,933 Speaker 3: It does make sense absolutely. And so you've managed to 1305 01:03:56,093 --> 01:03:58,373 Speaker 3: now employ others, so it seems to be going pretty 1306 01:03:58,373 --> 01:03:58,973 Speaker 3: wealth you great. 1307 01:03:59,853 --> 01:04:02,133 Speaker 12: Yeah, Hey, we've had to scale back the last couple 1308 01:04:02,133 --> 01:04:05,533 Speaker 12: of years, like a lot of companies. So at the 1309 01:04:05,573 --> 01:04:08,733 Speaker 12: moment it's back to me, one man band. But I 1310 01:04:08,773 --> 01:04:13,613 Speaker 12: know we'll go again when things get better. At the 1311 01:04:13,653 --> 01:04:18,173 Speaker 12: top of my seven guys working for me. But I 1312 01:04:18,213 --> 01:04:21,853 Speaker 12: don't like what I do. If I had my time again, 1313 01:04:21,973 --> 01:04:23,613 Speaker 12: I still want to know what I want to do. 1314 01:04:24,053 --> 01:04:26,333 Speaker 12: So there's some people that do just have to do 1315 01:04:26,373 --> 01:04:28,453 Speaker 12: what they have to do to get on with them. 1316 01:04:28,933 --> 01:04:31,453 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a funny thing that knowing what you want 1317 01:04:31,493 --> 01:04:34,693 Speaker 2: to do. You know, often people ask at seventeen, what 1318 01:04:34,693 --> 01:04:36,133 Speaker 2: do you want to do with your life? I think 1319 01:04:36,133 --> 01:04:37,813 Speaker 2: a lot of people will go right through their life 1320 01:04:37,813 --> 01:04:40,533 Speaker 2: and not know exactly what they want to do. It's 1321 01:04:40,613 --> 01:04:42,013 Speaker 2: quite a difficult question, isn't it. 1322 01:04:42,573 --> 01:04:45,213 Speaker 12: You know, there's things, there's things you want to do, 1323 01:04:46,013 --> 01:04:49,173 Speaker 12: but realistic I don't think there would be too many 1324 01:04:49,253 --> 01:04:51,773 Speaker 12: people that go to work every day saying this is 1325 01:04:51,813 --> 01:04:54,173 Speaker 12: my passion. I don't think there's many of those people. 1326 01:04:54,893 --> 01:04:57,133 Speaker 12: But I would all say that their time and they 1327 01:04:57,133 --> 01:04:59,013 Speaker 12: able to do what's happened. 1328 01:04:58,813 --> 01:05:01,413 Speaker 2: Yea, yeah, exactly. So I guess what I'm trying to 1329 01:05:01,453 --> 01:05:03,693 Speaker 2: say is is what you're saying there. You know the 1330 01:05:03,733 --> 01:05:06,053 Speaker 2: idea that you need to find your passion in life. 1331 01:05:06,493 --> 01:05:08,653 Speaker 2: And then you know that people say things if you 1332 01:05:08,733 --> 01:05:10,413 Speaker 2: if you love what you do, you're never working all 1333 01:05:10,413 --> 01:05:12,773 Speaker 2: those kind of things. There must be only one percent 1334 01:05:12,853 --> 01:05:15,813 Speaker 2: of the population that that you know their job. 1335 01:05:16,213 --> 01:05:18,373 Speaker 12: There and lucky. 1336 01:05:18,613 --> 01:05:23,453 Speaker 21: Yeah, yeah, but I okay, goals and speedway. 1337 01:05:22,933 --> 01:05:26,013 Speaker 12: I want to do international travel. I want to be 1338 01:05:26,093 --> 01:05:28,413 Speaker 12: a farmer, but I couldn't see that only the farm 1339 01:05:28,533 --> 01:05:31,973 Speaker 12: was going to be viable pet to that. But what 1340 01:05:32,053 --> 01:05:35,613 Speaker 12: I do has enabled me to buy a lifestyle block. Yeah, 1341 01:05:35,893 --> 01:05:40,293 Speaker 12: and so it's yeah, but what I do every day 1342 01:05:40,373 --> 01:05:43,773 Speaker 12: of the week, if I don't have to do it, 1343 01:05:43,853 --> 01:05:44,693 Speaker 12: I want to be doing it. 1344 01:05:44,973 --> 01:05:48,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's absolutely yeah. I mean there must be the 1345 01:05:48,693 --> 01:05:51,373 Speaker 2: case for for most people. I do seriously think that 1346 01:05:51,373 --> 01:05:54,373 Speaker 2: that idea that you that your life is defined by 1347 01:05:54,493 --> 01:05:56,293 Speaker 2: your job, and that if you find something just you've 1348 01:05:56,293 --> 01:05:58,773 Speaker 2: got to find that perfect thing that job aligns with 1349 01:05:58,813 --> 01:06:01,693 Speaker 2: you and reach all your dreams and goals. Sometimes you 1350 01:06:01,813 --> 01:06:04,573 Speaker 2: just got to find a job that's pretty good and 1351 01:06:04,613 --> 01:06:08,573 Speaker 2: then and then try and do the things, find some hobbies. 1352 01:06:08,413 --> 01:06:11,173 Speaker 3: Exactly, you know. Yeah, but that idea that you know, 1353 01:06:11,453 --> 01:06:14,573 Speaker 3: what was the phrase that if you work in your passion, 1354 01:06:14,613 --> 01:06:16,333 Speaker 3: you never have to work a day in your life. 1355 01:06:16,413 --> 01:06:18,133 Speaker 3: It is a myth. It is a mess, you know. 1356 01:06:18,173 --> 01:06:19,493 Speaker 3: I know a lot of people, Look, this is a 1357 01:06:19,493 --> 01:06:22,213 Speaker 3: fantastic job, and I'm so lucky to be here. And 1358 01:06:22,253 --> 01:06:23,773 Speaker 3: I know a lot of friends who have followed their 1359 01:06:23,813 --> 01:06:26,973 Speaker 3: passions and they've got fantastic businesses. Most of the time 1360 01:06:26,973 --> 01:06:29,293 Speaker 3: they love it. But they'll still winch they'll still have 1361 01:06:29,333 --> 01:06:31,813 Speaker 3: bad days, they'll still have stress, They'll still wake up 1362 01:06:31,853 --> 01:06:33,373 Speaker 3: some days and think, oh jeez, I want to do 1363 01:06:33,413 --> 01:06:34,093 Speaker 3: something different now. 1364 01:06:34,293 --> 01:06:37,653 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I remember telling my career a guidance a 1365 01:06:38,173 --> 01:06:41,573 Speaker 2: person that this woman at school I wanted to be 1366 01:06:41,653 --> 01:06:46,493 Speaker 2: a rock star, and you were, well kind of, but 1367 01:06:46,493 --> 01:06:49,293 Speaker 2: but she rightly said, you won't be a rock star. 1368 01:06:50,573 --> 01:06:51,893 Speaker 2: To be fair, I did have a top twenty album, 1369 01:06:51,893 --> 01:06:53,293 Speaker 2: but you wouldn't call me a rock star. More of 1370 01:06:53,333 --> 01:06:57,133 Speaker 2: a rock moon.

He needs to 1404 01:08:21,973 --> 01:08:25,293 Speaker 2: exist training to pass a psychometric testing for a job, 1405 01:08:25,572 --> 01:08:29,812 Speaker 2: as his dyslexia causes issues with reading quickly. They are 1406 01:08:29,933 --> 01:08:33,133 Speaker 2: times tests, but as his literacy and numacy are too high, 1407 01:08:33,173 --> 01:08:35,093 Speaker 2: he can't get any help. Yeah. 1408 01:08:35,133 --> 01:08:36,213 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a tricky one. 1409 01:08:37,173 --> 01:08:40,452 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, but I'm just sure that there'll be 1410 01:08:40,452 --> 01:08:44,652 Speaker 2: people that you know that at work and income that 1411 01:08:45,053 --> 01:08:46,532 Speaker 2: were desperate to help, right. 1412 01:08:46,612 --> 01:08:48,372 Speaker 3: Yeah, that in fact, they don't know how to help 1413 01:08:48,372 --> 01:08:51,253 Speaker 3: in that situation. It's a government agency. There will be 1414 01:08:51,412 --> 01:08:55,052 Speaker 3: people within that realm who would have those skills and expertise, 1415 01:08:55,093 --> 01:08:55,812 Speaker 3: you'd hope anyway. 1416 01:08:55,933 --> 01:08:58,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, if you're working and absolutely in any 1417 01:08:58,572 --> 01:09:01,213 Speaker 2: business at all, these terrible employees and I don't know 1418 01:09:01,213 --> 01:09:05,452 Speaker 2: why the percentages at wins, but maybe there's a lot 1419 01:09:05,452 --> 01:09:06,933 Speaker 2: of people that have given up on life. But I 1420 01:09:06,973 --> 01:09:10,492 Speaker 2: can imagine, and maybe this is some sort of naive belief, 1421 01:09:10,612 --> 01:09:13,612 Speaker 2: there would be people working there that would be absolutely 1422 01:09:13,812 --> 01:09:18,012 Speaker 2: stoked to help someone and see them move into another 1423 01:09:18,053 --> 01:09:20,452 Speaker 2: part of their life. You succeed, Dion. 1424 01:09:20,572 --> 01:09:22,452 Speaker 3: How are you good? 1425 01:09:22,492 --> 01:09:24,132 Speaker 19: Thanks? Guys.

Yeah. So, I 1431 01:09:37,612 --> 01:09:41,452 Speaker 19: mean I was an IT engineer, and the it is 1432 01:09:43,333 --> 01:09:45,852 Speaker 19: it's hard to get back into, specially at my age. 1433 01:09:45,933 --> 01:09:51,452 Speaker 19: I'm fifty eight years old. So employees we prefer to 1434 01:09:51,652 --> 01:09:54,692 Speaker 19: employing people that's younger coming out of the university, so 1435 01:09:54,732 --> 01:09:57,452 Speaker 19: they don't have to pay them that much.

I mean, for the longest time, 1494 01:13:05,812 --> 01:13:08,133 Speaker 2: I think people thought a good life was to have 1495 01:13:08,173 --> 01:13:10,892 Speaker 2: a job and then you volunteered at the rugby club 1496 01:13:11,253 --> 01:13:14,372 Speaker 2: or you know, you did whatever, you rotary club, I 1497 01:13:14,372 --> 01:13:16,133 Speaker 2: don't know, Lions club, with lots of different things that 1498 01:13:16,452 --> 01:13:18,293 Speaker 2: people did.

The idea that you have to 1500 01:13:21,133 --> 01:13:24,412 Speaker 2: find the absolute dream vocation and you know what am 1501 01:13:24,452 --> 01:13:25,772 Speaker 2: I going to do with my life?

And look, 1537 01:15:09,333 --> 01:15:14,132 Speaker 18: I absolutely recognize that people are, you know, just different, 1538 01:15:14,213 --> 01:15:18,853 Speaker 18: and that's a good thing and so dependent upon your attitude, 1539 01:15:18,933 --> 01:15:22,333 Speaker 18: you know, the ability to move forward in life despite 1540 01:15:22,372 --> 01:15:26,652 Speaker 18: your circumstances can be very rewarding if you simply have 1541 01:15:26,812 --> 01:15:27,852 Speaker 18: that type of attitude. 1542 01:15:27,893 --> 01:15:30,692 Speaker 3: You know, nicely said Alex. Now we're a bit short 1543 01:15:30,732 --> 01:15:32,692 Speaker 3: on time before the news, but we're really keen to 1544 01:15:32,692 --> 01:15:34,652 Speaker 3: hear your story. You made a major change at the 1545 01:15:34,652 --> 01:15:35,532 Speaker 3: age of forty six. 1546 01:15:37,213 --> 01:15:41,253 Speaker 18: Well, I worked for the council managing a small leisure 1547 01:15:41,293 --> 01:15:43,732 Speaker 18: center for sixteen years, and then my staff and I 1548 01:15:43,772 --> 01:15:45,572 Speaker 18: would have maybe redundant when they built a new rec 1549 01:15:45,612 --> 01:15:48,492 Speaker 18: center up the road, and so you know, it was 1550 01:15:48,973 --> 01:15:51,732 Speaker 18: a pivotal time in my life. But at forty six 1551 01:15:51,973 --> 01:15:53,892 Speaker 18: it led me down to what it is that I 1552 01:15:53,973 --> 01:15:54,652 Speaker 18: do now. 1553 01:15:55,973 --> 01:15:56,812 Speaker 3: And what do you do now? 1554 01:15:57,053 --> 01:16:00,612 Speaker 18: So I'm once known as a gain on disposal of 1555 01:16:00,652 --> 01:16:04,733 Speaker 18: steward for hotels. When hotels commercial hotels, when they refurbish 1556 01:16:04,812 --> 01:16:07,492 Speaker 18: or upgrade, they normally have to pay someone to come 1557 01:16:07,532 --> 01:16:10,213 Speaker 18: and take there for a true way, which you know 1558 01:16:10,652 --> 01:16:13,732 Speaker 18: it's understandable. But what I do is I provide a 1559 01:16:13,732 --> 01:16:17,653 Speaker 18: service that allows those hotels to have their inventory addressed 1560 01:16:17,652 --> 01:16:20,333 Speaker 18: and I empty whole hotels. And the way that I 1561 01:16:20,372 --> 01:16:22,973 Speaker 18: do it is, I say, listen, guys, the answer to 1562 01:16:23,053 --> 01:16:25,972 Speaker 18: your situation here is to bless the loser of people 1563 01:16:26,013 --> 01:16:29,372 Speaker 18: who have needs, especially post COVID where inflation is so high. 1564 01:16:29,412 --> 01:16:32,533 Speaker 18: So what we do is we set up the inventory 1565 01:16:32,893 --> 01:16:35,053 Speaker 18: and make it available for members of the public who 1566 01:16:35,133 --> 01:16:38,173 Speaker 18: know about it as such outrageously cheap prices. It becomes 1567 01:16:38,173 --> 01:16:41,572 Speaker 18: an absolute blessing. The biggest problem is hotels just don't 1568 01:16:41,572 --> 01:16:42,533 Speaker 18: have enough inventory. 1569 01:16:43,452 --> 01:16:45,612 Speaker 3: It's a fantastic John and how did you get into that? 1570 01:16:45,732 --> 01:16:48,012 Speaker 3: Did you know someone within the hotel business? 1571 01:16:49,572 --> 01:16:50,652 Speaker 18: No, I didn't. 1572 01:16:51,973 --> 01:16:52,173 Speaker 10: You know. 1573 01:16:52,213 --> 01:16:55,293 Speaker 18: A lot of events occurred, honestly, and it's going to 1574 01:16:55,333 --> 01:16:57,932 Speaker 18: take too long to explain it. But if I'm being 1575 01:16:57,933 --> 01:17:01,132 Speaker 18: straight up about it, the good man upstairs basically steered 1576 01:17:01,173 --> 01:17:04,333 Speaker 18: me into this. So part and parcel of what my 1577 01:17:04,412 --> 01:17:08,012 Speaker 18: responsibility is is not only to set up pricing, which 1578 01:17:08,053 --> 01:17:10,933 Speaker 18: is so inclusive that it allows people, for example, to 1579 01:17:10,973 --> 01:17:14,572 Speaker 18: buy beds the sixty bucks or forty bucks. You know, 1580 01:17:15,532 --> 01:17:20,053 Speaker 18: but it moves the inventory. And you know, while it's 1581 01:17:20,253 --> 01:17:24,133 Speaker 18: data for the hotel's purposes, will it work domestically? Absolutely? 1582 01:17:24,452 --> 01:17:27,372 Speaker 3: Love it interesting, What a great story. Now, just before 1583 01:17:27,412 --> 01:17:29,293 Speaker 3: we hit the news, there's been a lot of people 1584 01:17:29,333 --> 01:17:33,572 Speaker 3: concerned about the texture. A little bit earlier on who 1585 01:17:33,772 --> 01:17:36,012 Speaker 3: was a bit downcast about the situation. 1586 01:17:36,372 --> 01:17:38,093 Speaker 2: Yeah, the one that said he'd given up and he 1587 01:17:38,133 --> 01:17:40,133 Speaker 2: didn't have any ideas and didn't know what to do. 1588 01:17:40,213 --> 01:17:42,572 Speaker 2: So we're going to send all that information, all your 1589 01:17:42,572 --> 01:17:45,412 Speaker 2: advice to that guy and hopefully he sorts it south 1590 01:17:45,452 --> 01:17:48,012 Speaker 2: out and found some motivation thanks to all the lovely 1591 01:17:48,053 --> 01:17:49,412 Speaker 2: texts on nine two ninety two. 1592 01:17:49,452 --> 01:17:52,213 Speaker 3: Good on you. Yep, Absolutely, what a great discussion right 1593 01:17:52,293 --> 01:17:57,213 Speaker 3: coming up after three o'clock politicians using AIAI in government. 1594 01:17:57,253 --> 01:18:00,173 Speaker 3: How do you feel about that? It's kicking off overseas. 1595 01:18:00,213 --> 01:18:01,612 Speaker 3: We're going to tell you a little bit more about 1596 01:18:01,612 --> 01:18:04,333 Speaker 3: that very shortly. New Sport and weather on its way. 1597 01:18:04,532 --> 01:18:06,213 Speaker 3: You're listening to Matt and Tyler. Hope you having a 1598 01:18:06,213 --> 01:18:07,772 Speaker 3: great afternoon. 1599 01:18:09,492 --> 01:18:14,773 Speaker 2: Time fliers and only twice. 1600 01:18:13,853 --> 01:18:18,092 Speaker 1: Your new homes are insightful and entertaining talk. It's Matty 1601 01:18:18,372 --> 01:18:21,972 Speaker 1: and Taylor Adams Afternoons on News Talk Sebby. 1602 01:18:23,093 --> 01:18:25,213 Speaker 3: Very good afternoon to you. Welcome back into the program. 1603 01:18:25,253 --> 01:18:26,253 Speaker 3: Seven past three. 1604 01:18:26,492 --> 01:18:30,532 Speaker 2: Before we put the previous topic to bed. But I 1605 01:18:30,572 --> 01:18:33,772 Speaker 2: was trying to explain before this concept that the idea 1606 01:18:33,853 --> 01:18:37,173 Speaker 2: of finding your dream job isn't necessarily helpful. Yeah, and 1607 01:18:37,253 --> 01:18:38,812 Speaker 2: I didn't explain it very well. So there's a text 1608 01:18:38,812 --> 01:18:40,293 Speaker 2: here that's come through that explains it pretty well. 1609 01:18:40,333 --> 01:18:41,213 Speaker 3: Okay for me. Cool. 1610 01:18:41,572 --> 01:18:43,452 Speaker 2: I agree with you, Matt, although you fail to explain 1611 01:18:43,492 --> 01:18:45,572 Speaker 2: your idea very well. In fact, you sucked at it. 1612 01:18:46,133 --> 01:18:48,253 Speaker 2: But that's okay haha, So I have given it a 1613 01:18:48,293 --> 01:18:50,812 Speaker 2: go for you. The idea of a dream job can 1614 01:18:50,893 --> 01:18:54,652 Speaker 2: be unhelpful because it creates an unrealistic expectation assumes there's 1615 01:18:54,692 --> 01:18:57,532 Speaker 2: only one perfect fit and can lead to disappointment or 1616 01:18:57,572 --> 01:19:02,093 Speaker 2: paralysis when reality doesn't match the ideal. In truth, interest evolves. 1617 01:19:02,372 --> 01:19:04,933 Speaker 2: Success often comes from growing into roles and meaning in 1618 01:19:04,973 --> 01:19:07,572 Speaker 2: life doesn't have to come solely from work. For some 1619 01:19:07,732 --> 01:19:10,372 Speaker 2: finding a job that pays your way while finding meaning 1620 01:19:10,412 --> 01:19:14,172 Speaker 2: and family and community and hobbies is a perfectly awesome life. 1621 01:19:14,412 --> 01:19:17,053 Speaker 2: The truth is, we aren't all going to be special in, 1622 01:19:17,173 --> 01:19:20,532 Speaker 2: celebrated and famous, but we might spend our lives being 1623 01:19:20,612 --> 01:19:23,092 Speaker 2: very important to the people close to us. That probably 1624 01:19:23,133 --> 01:19:25,372 Speaker 2: means more on your death bed than a lot of 1625 01:19:25,412 --> 01:19:27,052 Speaker 2: these special dream career paths. 1626 01:19:27,253 --> 01:19:29,492 Speaker 3: Nicely said that there's a lot better than I explained it. 1627 01:19:29,572 --> 01:19:31,333 Speaker 3: That is deep, But then it's beautiful. 1628 01:19:31,412 --> 01:19:33,732 Speaker 2: That's exactly what I mean. Yeah, well done, But I 1629 01:19:33,812 --> 01:19:36,372 Speaker 2: got out a bunch of garbled rubbish that confused everyone 1630 01:19:36,412 --> 01:19:37,452 Speaker 2: and find out the text machine. 1631 01:19:37,492 --> 01:19:39,692 Speaker 3: But that is a fantastic place to leave that discussion, 1632 01:19:39,732 --> 01:19:40,892 Speaker 3: and what a discussion it was. 1633 01:19:41,013 --> 01:19:42,692 Speaker 2: Hang a minute, we're not leaving it yet. We're waiting 1634 01:19:42,732 --> 01:19:45,812 Speaker 2: for this text to come through. What was the name 1635 01:19:45,853 --> 01:19:48,973 Speaker 2: of the hotel furnishing business? What's the name of the 1636 01:19:49,093 --> 01:19:54,972 Speaker 2: organization that sells ex. Hotel furniture. I texted Alex waiting 1637 01:19:54,973 --> 01:19:55,572 Speaker 2: for his reply. 1638 01:19:55,772 --> 01:19:57,932 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we just got off the phone. So Alex, 1639 01:19:57,973 --> 01:20:00,133 Speaker 3: if you still listening, mate, you send that text through 1640 01:20:00,133 --> 01:20:02,293 Speaker 3: because a lot of people are interested. He did say 1641 01:20:02,333 --> 01:20:04,053 Speaker 3: he was going to send that text through AUSAP. 1642 01:20:04,412 --> 01:20:04,852 Speaker 2: I'm waiting. 1643 01:20:05,173 --> 01:20:07,932 Speaker 3: Come on, Alex, come on, come on, We'll give him 1644 01:20:07,933 --> 01:20:10,892 Speaker 3: another call in the air brake, I think. But yeah, 1645 01:20:10,893 --> 01:20:12,652 Speaker 3: it's sounded like a fantastic business and a lot of 1646 01:20:12,692 --> 01:20:15,253 Speaker 3: people want to know Alex, so text it through, right, 1647 01:20:15,412 --> 01:20:18,452 Speaker 3: This is going to be a good discussion. So AI 1648 01:20:18,732 --> 01:20:21,972 Speaker 3: in government, there has been a bit of pushback of 1649 01:20:22,053 --> 01:20:25,692 Speaker 3: some politicians using artificial intelligence to help with their jobs. 1650 01:20:25,692 --> 01:20:29,053 Speaker 3: So one MP in the UK he has created an 1651 01:20:29,053 --> 01:20:31,212 Speaker 3: AI bot of himself. The reason he's done. 1652 01:20:31,053 --> 01:20:32,372 Speaker 2: This because he's lazy. 1653 01:20:32,492 --> 01:20:34,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, well he's farming out a bit of work. He 1654 01:20:35,053 --> 01:20:37,452 Speaker 3: sets up this AI bot and people can ring it 1655 01:20:37,572 --> 01:20:39,732 Speaker 3: or text it, or email it or even talk to 1656 01:20:39,772 --> 01:20:42,293 Speaker 3: it twenty four hours a day and it can answer 1657 01:20:42,333 --> 01:20:47,052 Speaker 3: basic questions in relation to his constituency. He then says 1658 01:20:47,093 --> 01:20:49,053 Speaker 3: he picks up some of the more complex stuff, but 1659 01:20:49,093 --> 01:20:50,892 Speaker 3: the AI bot is sitting there that if people want 1660 01:20:50,893 --> 01:20:53,293 Speaker 3: to know what day rubbish day is if they've got 1661 01:20:53,293 --> 01:20:56,053 Speaker 3: a problem with their mailman, then the AI bot can 1662 01:20:56,093 --> 01:20:59,412 Speaker 3: give them a bit of information. The other politician who 1663 01:20:59,492 --> 01:21:01,293 Speaker 3: got a bit of heat was none other than the 1664 01:21:01,293 --> 01:21:04,293 Speaker 3: Swedish Prime minister. So he led it slip that he 1665 01:21:04,412 --> 01:21:07,532 Speaker 3: uses chat GPT to run through a couple of policy 1666 01:21:07,612 --> 01:21:10,772 Speaker 3: ideas to get a second opinion. And the people of 1667 01:21:10,812 --> 01:21:13,052 Speaker 3: Sweden are not happy with that. They said, I quote, 1668 01:21:13,093 --> 01:21:16,172 Speaker 3: we did not vote for chat GPT to be prime minister. 1669 01:21:16,652 --> 01:21:20,492 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's an interesting one because you know, do you 1670 01:21:20,532 --> 01:21:25,293 Speaker 2: feel comfortable with politicians using AI? I mean if you 1671 01:21:25,492 --> 01:21:28,652 Speaker 2: run it through chat gpt and it came up with 1672 01:21:28,732 --> 01:21:31,852 Speaker 2: some things you hadn't thought of, as long as he 1673 01:21:31,933 --> 01:21:35,612 Speaker 2: doesn't blanketly do exactly what chat GPT tells him to do. 1674 01:21:35,973 --> 01:21:37,732 Speaker 2: Is there anything wrong with that? Is it? 1675 01:21:37,772 --> 01:21:37,852 Speaker 6: Is? 1676 01:21:37,893 --> 01:21:42,732 Speaker 2: It? Is it worlds apart from googling and researching problems 1677 01:21:42,772 --> 01:21:47,812 Speaker 2: with with this policy, right is it? And or is 1678 01:21:47,812 --> 01:21:50,932 Speaker 2: that just handing power over to the robots? Because whether 1679 01:21:50,973 --> 01:21:55,293 Speaker 2: it's whether it's you're doing exactly what it says or not, 1680 01:21:55,372 --> 01:21:58,492 Speaker 2: you are in a way being influenced by the AI 1681 01:21:58,893 --> 01:22:02,652 Speaker 2: because it's going through using the large language moral and 1682 01:22:02,692 --> 01:22:08,812 Speaker 2: coming up with you know, things through previous experiences, whatever 1683 01:22:09,053 --> 01:22:11,652 Speaker 2: the processes of the AI, I'm not sure I feel 1684 01:22:11,652 --> 01:22:14,812 Speaker 2: about that. I mean, wouldn't it immediately texts come through 1685 01:22:14,812 --> 01:22:17,532 Speaker 2: as in twenty twenty five, I'd be concerned if a 1686 01:22:17,572 --> 01:22:19,932 Speaker 2: politician was such a luddite they weren't using AI. 1687 01:22:20,213 --> 01:22:22,932 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd tend to lean more in favor of that text. 1688 01:22:23,213 --> 01:22:26,052 Speaker 3: And if you think that politicians or people within government 1689 01:22:26,093 --> 01:22:28,572 Speaker 3: aren't using AI to some extent in this country, you're 1690 01:22:28,612 --> 01:22:32,012 Speaker 3: deluding yourself. Absolutely, it has been utilized in one extent 1691 01:22:32,173 --> 01:22:32,572 Speaker 3: or the other. 1692 01:22:32,973 --> 01:22:35,452 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean there will be a guarantee a story 1693 01:22:35,492 --> 01:22:38,892 Speaker 2: in the next weeks or months where a New Zealand 1694 01:22:38,933 --> 01:22:43,213 Speaker 2: politician is caught out or admits that they're using CHET, 1695 01:22:43,253 --> 01:22:47,932 Speaker 2: GBT or GROC or whatever to you know, answer questions 1696 01:22:47,973 --> 01:22:54,612 Speaker 2: from journalists or to you know, you know, pump up 1697 01:22:54,652 --> 01:22:55,732 Speaker 2: their speeches or something. 1698 01:22:55,893 --> 01:22:58,492 Speaker 3: Yeah. Perhaps even and I'm not saying this is happening 1699 01:22:58,532 --> 01:23:00,972 Speaker 3: in New Zealand, but perhaps similar to what this MP 1700 01:23:01,053 --> 01:23:03,812 Speaker 3: in the UK is doing, that there is AI responding 1701 01:23:03,893 --> 01:23:05,973 Speaker 3: to email questions from constituents. 1702 01:23:06,452 --> 01:23:09,532 Speaker 2: There's a possibility what's the name of that punished chatbot 1703 01:23:09,652 --> 01:23:11,852 Speaker 2: from in New Zealand that's been a beefed up. Was 1704 01:23:11,893 --> 01:23:12,372 Speaker 2: it Oscar? 1705 01:23:12,572 --> 01:23:12,772 Speaker 19: Yeah? 1706 01:23:12,812 --> 01:23:15,692 Speaker 3: Well it was Oscar. Yeah, So it's effectively he's cremated 1707 01:23:15,732 --> 01:23:16,133 Speaker 3: an Oscar. 1708 01:23:16,133 --> 01:23:18,213 Speaker 2: I don't want to talk to my politician and get 1709 01:23:18,213 --> 01:23:21,013 Speaker 2: those kind of responses. You know, your average chatbot on 1710 01:23:21,372 --> 01:23:24,812 Speaker 2: a site, You know, if you're looking at buying a 1711 01:23:24,853 --> 01:23:27,133 Speaker 2: car and the chatbot comes up, it's generally speaking, not 1712 01:23:27,213 --> 01:23:28,213 Speaker 2: very helpful for. 1713 01:23:28,253 --> 01:23:30,652 Speaker 3: A friendly little fellow. He certainly upset a lot of people, 1714 01:23:30,692 --> 01:23:33,572 Speaker 3: including me. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty. How much 1715 01:23:33,973 --> 01:23:37,613 Speaker 3: usage of AI should be used in government and from politicians? 1716 01:23:37,612 --> 01:23:40,213 Speaker 3: How would you feel about politicians accessing AI? 1717 01:23:40,572 --> 01:23:43,013 Speaker 2: Judith Collins says, admit that she uses it. There you go, 1718 01:23:43,213 --> 01:23:45,652 Speaker 2: Why have I missed that story? Will look that up. 1719 01:23:45,732 --> 01:23:47,173 Speaker 3: So we might even try and get a hold of 1720 01:23:47,213 --> 01:23:49,012 Speaker 3: Juith Collins to chat about her usage. 1721 01:23:48,772 --> 01:23:51,213 Speaker 2: Of trying to get hold of Judith Collins, Oh, eight hundred, 1722 01:23:51,293 --> 01:23:53,532 Speaker 2: or we'll get a Judith Collins chat bot on it. 1723 01:23:53,933 --> 01:23:55,732 Speaker 3: That would be great. I wait, one hundred eighty ten 1724 01:23:55,812 --> 01:23:57,372 Speaker 3: eighty is the number to call? 1725 01:23:57,612 --> 01:24:00,173 Speaker 2: So we've heard back from Alice Alex, Hey, Matt. The 1726 01:24:00,173 --> 01:24:02,133 Speaker 2: way people can hook up into the service, this is 1727 01:24:02,253 --> 01:24:09,093 Speaker 2: the furniture you know, abandoned hotel furnishing business. The best 1728 01:24:09,093 --> 01:24:10,892 Speaker 2: way people can hock up into the service is by 1729 01:24:10,893 --> 01:24:15,612 Speaker 2: sending me an email at a dot tuia that's a 1730 01:24:15,812 --> 01:24:18,812 Speaker 2: dot t uia at extra, dot co, dot and z 1731 01:24:18,973 --> 01:24:21,692 Speaker 2: with requests to go into our database. Everyone gets updates 1732 01:24:21,732 --> 01:24:25,692 Speaker 2: about which hotels we are doing, inventory becoming available, prices 1733 01:24:25,692 --> 01:24:28,612 Speaker 2: and protocols. This allows people to make an informed decision 1734 01:24:28,652 --> 01:24:33,133 Speaker 2: if they have needs. Our responsibilities provide inclusive pricing so 1735 01:24:33,213 --> 01:24:35,852 Speaker 2: people can buy according to their needs yet live within 1736 01:24:35,933 --> 01:24:37,253 Speaker 2: their needs.

Oh one hundred eighty ten eighty. How would 1739 01:24:41,772 --> 01:24:45,132 Speaker 3: you feel about talking to an AI bot that's cloned 1740 01:24:45,133 --> 01:24:47,452 Speaker 3: as your local MP? Would you have any problem with that? 1741 01:24:47,652 --> 01:24:49,412 Speaker 3: And should they be using it to get some second 1742 01:24:49,412 --> 01:24:50,372 Speaker 3: opinions on policy? 1743 01:24:50,532 --> 01:24:53,652 Speaker 2: Dave says, boys, my doctor uses chat GBT. Well, I 1744 01:24:53,692 --> 01:24:56,093 Speaker 2: am sitting there. Only as she'll have is that I 1745 01:24:56,093 --> 01:24:58,133 Speaker 2: don't get a discount for the bot doing all the work. 1746 01:24:58,213 --> 01:25:01,213 Speaker 3: That is great. It is thirty pas three on us 1747 01:25:01,293 --> 01:25:04,652 Speaker 3: dog ZMB afternoon. It is sixteen pass three. We're talking 1748 01:25:04,652 --> 01:25:08,053 Speaker 3: about aiuse and governments. A lot of politicians have been 1749 01:25:08,093 --> 01:25:10,573 Speaker 3: at access in it and there's been some kickback overseas. 1750 01:25:10,973 --> 01:25:15,132 Speaker 3: UKMP uses a clone AI bot to answer constituents questions 1751 01:25:15,213 --> 01:25:17,772 Speaker 3: basic questions. In the Swedish PM he has got a 1752 01:25:17,812 --> 01:25:19,892 Speaker 3: lot of heat for saying that he throws policies into 1753 01:25:19,933 --> 01:25:21,333 Speaker 3: chech GPT. You see what it thinks. 1754 01:25:21,372 --> 01:25:24,572 Speaker 2: And the Honorable Judith Collins has come out in support 1755 01:25:24,572 --> 01:25:26,893 Speaker 2: of AI as she says use of AI technologies to 1756 01:25:26,893 --> 01:25:29,652 Speaker 2: improve public services as a priority for me, and this 1757 01:25:29,772 --> 01:25:34,213 Speaker 2: guidance will enable its safe and responsible uptake. AI presents 1758 01:25:34,253 --> 01:25:37,532 Speaker 2: a major opportunity to lift productivity and prove public service delivery, 1759 01:25:37,692 --> 01:25:40,932 Speaker 2: but governments must ensure it is done right. So there's 1760 01:25:40,973 --> 01:25:42,852 Speaker 2: some guidance on this. We need to get to the 1761 01:25:43,333 --> 01:25:45,933 Speaker 2: bottom of exactly what the guidance is on that. 1762 01:25:46,652 --> 01:25:49,973 Speaker 3: Yeah, so she calls it the Public Service AI Framework 1763 01:25:50,013 --> 01:25:53,172 Speaker 3: and it's quite a big document, but we've just found 1764 01:25:53,492 --> 01:25:57,772 Speaker 3: the five principles that they expect this AI framework to 1765 01:25:57,812 --> 01:25:58,412 Speaker 3: abide by. 1766 01:25:58,652 --> 01:26:01,253 Speaker 2: Safe deployment of all forms of AI and public service 1767 01:26:01,293 --> 01:26:05,052 Speaker 2: transparency and trustworthiness, and AI decision making accountability for outcomes 1768 01:26:05,093 --> 01:26:09,012 Speaker 2: driven by AI systems, focus on value the pub better 1769 01:26:09,013 --> 01:26:13,012 Speaker 2: outcomes and cost efficiency alignment with public expectations as a evolves. 1770 01:26:13,133 --> 01:26:16,612 Speaker 2: It feels like I've read that and no more no 1771 01:26:16,692 --> 01:26:18,052 Speaker 2: less than when I started reading it. 1772 01:26:18,053 --> 01:26:19,933 Speaker 3: It all sounds good, but it also sounds like a 1773 01:26:19,933 --> 01:26:22,092 Speaker 3: bit of gobblygook. Get a rusty? 1774 01:26:24,293 --> 01:26:26,333 Speaker 11: Are you rusty today? 1775 01:26:26,933 --> 01:26:29,253 Speaker 3: Very good? What's your take on AI in government? 1776 01:26:30,412 --> 01:26:32,972 Speaker 11: Well, I think that it's actually a really good thing. 1777 01:26:33,253 --> 01:26:37,132 Speaker 11: I personally was a policy analyst in a government department 1778 01:26:37,333 --> 01:26:40,973 Speaker 11: for four years and I was quite surprised when I 1779 01:26:41,093 --> 01:26:45,133 Speaker 11: was there about how little original thought actually is coming 1780 01:26:45,173 --> 01:26:47,213 Speaker 11: out of the public service. Like a lot of the 1781 01:26:47,253 --> 01:26:51,492 Speaker 11: policies that are currently in circulation have been as on 1782 01:26:51,652 --> 01:26:55,732 Speaker 11: multiple occasion. And the second thing that I think I 1783 01:26:55,853 --> 01:26:59,372 Speaker 11: learned was that because our bureaucracy and news element is 1784 01:26:59,412 --> 01:27:03,412 Speaker 11: based in Wellington, there's a bias in the public service 1785 01:27:03,452 --> 01:27:07,213 Speaker 11: which which doesn't always suit the best interest in New Zealanders. 1786 01:27:08,612 --> 01:27:11,892 Speaker 3: So the use of AI is it's increasingly being utilized 1787 01:27:11,933 --> 01:27:15,412 Speaker 3: overseas and arguably, as you say, in New zealandier part 1788 01:27:15,452 --> 01:27:18,333 Speaker 3: of that is to what get a secondary opinion or 1789 01:27:18,372 --> 01:27:21,012 Speaker 3: a different viewpoint on a policy, to try and eliminate 1790 01:27:21,013 --> 01:27:21,812 Speaker 3: bias where we can. 1791 01:27:22,893 --> 01:27:25,053 Speaker 11: Well, although I think it's actually a little bit, a 1792 01:27:25,053 --> 01:27:28,293 Speaker 11: little bit back to first principles. Really is when a 1793 01:27:28,372 --> 01:27:32,452 Speaker 11: politician proposes a policy, I think AI is going to 1794 01:27:32,492 --> 01:27:37,852 Speaker 11: be able to help generate what the detail underneath that 1795 01:27:37,893 --> 01:27:41,133 Speaker 11: policy is, which if you are asking a policy shop 1796 01:27:41,293 --> 01:27:43,293 Speaker 11: like a government department to do takes a lot of 1797 01:27:43,293 --> 01:27:45,772 Speaker 11: time and effort and a lot of cots. And I 1798 01:27:45,812 --> 01:27:48,173 Speaker 11: think that the AI is going to be less by 1799 01:27:48,253 --> 01:27:50,933 Speaker 11: us and provides you because it's got access to the 1800 01:27:50,933 --> 01:27:55,333 Speaker 11: global policy workout where around all these papers of public 1801 01:27:56,133 --> 01:27:59,532 Speaker 11: I think it'll do a better job of both enacting 1802 01:27:59,572 --> 01:28:03,852 Speaker 11: what politicians want to happen, and secondly, the quality pasty 1803 01:28:03,853 --> 01:28:06,772 Speaker 11: will be better because it's not relying on humans to 1804 01:28:06,893 --> 01:28:09,053 Speaker 11: interpret and to add their own vices to it. 1805 01:28:09,652 --> 01:28:13,572 Speaker 2: Yeah, but there is the AI illusion problem you're aware of. 1806 01:28:13,572 --> 01:28:19,372 Speaker 2: They say it sometimes just creates absolute lies, and you. 1807 01:28:19,293 --> 01:28:22,532 Speaker 11: Can't you can't just do it. You can't clearly there 1808 01:28:22,532 --> 01:28:25,093 Speaker 11: has to be humans sitting behind that looking at that 1809 01:28:25,173 --> 01:28:26,173 Speaker 11: going does that make sense? 1810 01:28:26,213 --> 01:28:26,932 Speaker 4: And is that right? 1811 01:28:27,452 --> 01:28:29,492 Speaker 11: But but what I'm saying is in terms of the 1812 01:28:29,532 --> 01:28:33,093 Speaker 11: count work that goes into policy, I think AI took 1813 01:28:33,133 --> 01:28:35,173 Speaker 11: at a job and our policy. 1814 01:28:34,812 --> 01:28:39,693 Speaker 2: Shops, how would you feel like what's happened in Switzerland 1815 01:28:40,772 --> 01:28:43,253 Speaker 2: where the Prime Minister has just hifted as policy into 1816 01:28:43,333 --> 01:28:46,972 Speaker 2: chet GBT and asked it what do you think and 1817 01:28:46,973 --> 01:28:51,572 Speaker 2: and and then has decided to deliberate further on what's 1818 01:28:51,612 --> 01:28:52,652 Speaker 2: come out the other end of that. 1819 01:28:54,013 --> 01:28:56,053 Speaker 11: Well, I think that's actually a really good use of 1820 01:28:56,093 --> 01:28:58,412 Speaker 11: the use of it all. Again, in the end, it 1821 01:28:58,532 --> 01:29:01,053 Speaker 11: still has to be a human, human check and we 1822 01:29:01,133 --> 01:29:04,492 Speaker 11: have to be conscious of of what of what the 1823 01:29:04,973 --> 01:29:08,812 Speaker 11: unintended consequences might be. But in a general sense, I 1824 01:29:08,853 --> 01:29:12,812 Speaker 11: think as the starting point court policy development, these talks 1825 01:29:12,812 --> 01:29:15,333 Speaker 11: are going to be fantastic and they're going to reduce. 1826 01:29:15,013 --> 01:29:15,732 Speaker 12: The cost and. 1827 01:29:17,933 --> 01:29:20,852 Speaker 3: Oh, I think, yeah, we just lost you there for 1828 01:29:20,893 --> 01:29:23,053 Speaker 3: a bit, rusty. Thank you very much though for your call. 1829 01:29:23,093 --> 01:29:25,692 Speaker 3: Really appreciate it. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty. How 1830 01:29:25,692 --> 01:29:27,932 Speaker 3: do you feel about AI use and government? Should our 1831 01:29:27,973 --> 01:29:31,372 Speaker 3: politicians be asking chech GPT for advice on policy? Love 1832 01:29:31,412 --> 01:29:32,733 Speaker 3: to hear your thoughts. 1833 01:29:32,492 --> 01:29:35,093 Speaker 2: Hey, guys. It depends on the political parties involved. I'm 1834 01:29:35,093 --> 01:29:37,892 Speaker 2: sure National Act in New Zealand First are using AI 1835 01:29:37,933 --> 01:29:41,812 Speaker 2: wisely to improve working of the government. Labour Greens and 1836 01:29:41,812 --> 01:29:44,932 Speaker 2: Tapatimari will be using it poorly. 1837 01:29:45,173 --> 01:29:48,133 Speaker 3: Okay, okay, right, thank you very much. Keep those techs 1838 01:29:48,173 --> 01:29:49,852 Speaker 3: coming through. On nineteen ninety two. 1839 01:29:49,772 --> 01:29:51,213 Speaker 2: What a partisan response. 1840 01:29:51,133 --> 01:29:53,732 Speaker 3: Very partisan. Oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty is the 1841 01:29:53,812 --> 01:29:54,333 Speaker 3: number to call. 1842 01:29:54,372 --> 01:30:02,452 Speaker 1: Love to hear from you, Matt Heathen, Tyler Adams afternoons 1843 01:30:02,452 --> 01:30:04,372 Speaker 1: call oh eight hundred eighty ten eighty. 1844 01:30:04,412 --> 01:30:05,692 Speaker 4: On news Talk ZB. 1845 01:30:05,812 --> 01:30:09,213 Speaker 3: Twenty three past three, we are talking about increasing use 1846 01:30:09,293 --> 01:30:10,733 Speaker 3: of AI by politicians. 1847 01:30:10,853 --> 01:30:12,933 Speaker 2: When was the last time a politician came up with 1848 01:30:13,013 --> 01:30:16,012 Speaker 2: a policy that made you go wow in a good way? 1849 01:30:16,133 --> 01:30:19,012 Speaker 2: Says this text. Unfortunately, our so called leaders aren't really 1850 01:30:19,053 --> 01:30:23,532 Speaker 2: the cream of humanity. Mostly they're competent middle class managers, 1851 01:30:23,572 --> 01:30:26,892 Speaker 2: so they probably should be assessing all the assistance they 1852 01:30:26,933 --> 01:30:30,372 Speaker 2: can get hold of. I'm not sure about Winston though, 1853 01:30:30,492 --> 01:30:33,093 Speaker 2: to be honest regards Stephen. 1854 01:30:32,973 --> 01:30:36,293 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that is a fair point. Is if 1855 01:30:36,692 --> 01:30:39,892 Speaker 3: artificial intelligence is at the point now where it can 1856 01:30:40,133 --> 01:30:44,893 Speaker 3: give unbiased information and look, you mentioned the hallucination situation. 1857 01:30:45,532 --> 01:30:47,213 Speaker 3: But if it gets to a point where it is 1858 01:30:47,293 --> 01:30:50,572 Speaker 3: purely logical and it sees all the angles and it 1859 01:30:50,652 --> 01:30:53,012 Speaker 3: leaves a motion at the door when we're talking about 1860 01:30:53,013 --> 01:30:56,853 Speaker 3: government policy for the betterment of as many people as possible, 1861 01:30:57,093 --> 01:30:59,572 Speaker 3: does it not make sense that AI gets brought into 1862 01:30:59,572 --> 01:31:00,492 Speaker 3: that picture in some way. 1863 01:31:00,732 --> 01:31:03,532 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean absolutely if it's lowing the administrative work. 1864 01:31:03,652 --> 01:31:06,452 Speaker 2: I mean the question is creating policy really whether you 1865 01:31:06,492 --> 01:31:08,933 Speaker 2: want it to be involved in creating policy when you 1866 01:31:08,933 --> 01:31:12,452 Speaker 2: talk about those AI allusions. I watched this video the 1867 01:31:12,452 --> 01:31:16,532 Speaker 2: other day and it was this British journalist who he 1868 01:31:16,572 --> 01:31:19,852 Speaker 2: was using AI to make transcripts of his podcast right, 1869 01:31:20,093 --> 01:31:22,372 Speaker 2: and he got the date slightly wrong into it entering it. 1870 01:31:22,412 --> 01:31:27,173 Speaker 2: I'm not sure what happened, but the podcast listed all 1871 01:31:27,173 --> 01:31:30,972 Speaker 2: the podcasts the AI chet GPT list all the podcasts 1872 01:31:31,013 --> 01:31:32,973 Speaker 2: he'd done, and one of them was the one that 1873 01:31:32,973 --> 01:31:35,213 Speaker 2: he hadn't done. It was in a future date, and 1874 01:31:35,333 --> 01:31:37,732 Speaker 2: he asked the ch T about it and said, yes, 1875 01:31:37,812 --> 01:31:40,652 Speaker 2: you have done it, and then to back that up, 1876 01:31:40,692 --> 01:31:45,133 Speaker 2: it generated an entire podcast that he hadn't done because 1877 01:31:45,173 --> 01:31:46,852 Speaker 2: it was from a future date. Yeah, and it was 1878 01:31:46,853 --> 01:31:49,412 Speaker 2: actually pretty good podcast. But the guy was saying going 1879 01:31:49,452 --> 01:31:52,652 Speaker 2: back to saying, no, you've made up this podcast. I 1880 01:31:52,692 --> 01:31:53,652 Speaker 2: never did that podcast. 1881 01:31:53,692 --> 01:31:55,852 Speaker 3: That is fascinating. Thanks for the idea, but it hasn't 1882 01:31:55,853 --> 01:31:56,293 Speaker 3: happened yet. 1883 01:31:56,333 --> 01:31:57,933 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was a good podcast though it was just 1884 01:31:57,973 --> 01:32:00,692 Speaker 2: from a future date. Love that Hey, guys. AI is 1885 01:32:00,732 --> 01:32:02,452 Speaker 2: a great tool if you already know what you're doing. 1886 01:32:02,532 --> 01:32:04,932 Speaker 2: For example, the doctor that was using AI mentioned before 1887 01:32:05,013 --> 01:32:07,333 Speaker 2: probably used that in a fearing narrow fashion to find 1888 01:32:07,372 --> 01:32:10,933 Speaker 2: out some specific quite different different to Joe public diagnosing 1889 01:32:10,973 --> 01:32:11,892 Speaker 2: and treating illnesses. 1890 01:32:12,013 --> 01:32:16,372 Speaker 3: Cheers Nick, Yeah, Mark, what's your thoughts about AI use 1891 01:32:16,492 --> 01:32:17,452 Speaker 3: by politicians? 1892 01:32:18,492 --> 01:32:21,692 Speaker 21: No, I think it's a brilliant tool. But as far 1893 01:32:21,732 --> 01:32:27,772 Speaker 21: as using it for for local government and the government department, 1894 01:32:27,812 --> 01:32:30,492 Speaker 21: to be nice to get some form of intelligence in there, 1895 01:32:30,492 --> 01:32:31,013 Speaker 21: wouldn't it? 1896 01:32:32,293 --> 01:32:32,532 Speaker 18: MH. 1897 01:32:34,133 --> 01:32:37,492 Speaker 21: The experience I had, I asked you a question. I 1898 01:32:39,213 --> 01:32:41,572 Speaker 21: had an upcoming discussion, and I thought, what would happen 1899 01:32:41,572 --> 01:32:44,732 Speaker 21: if we had cement to this product? What happens to 1900 01:32:44,732 --> 01:32:49,892 Speaker 21: the properties of it? And Chechi you gave him deck response, sing, 1901 01:32:49,933 --> 01:32:54,732 Speaker 21: you should should not do that. It'll make more brother, 1902 01:32:54,812 --> 01:32:56,333 Speaker 21: it'll do this and this and this and this and 1903 01:32:56,372 --> 01:32:58,932 Speaker 21: the cave some really really good reasons why not. And 1904 01:32:58,933 --> 01:33:02,693 Speaker 21: then I asked it, how can I improve the properties 1905 01:33:02,692 --> 01:33:05,532 Speaker 21: of this product? And it said add cement. 1906 01:33:06,333 --> 01:33:13,093 Speaker 7: Hello, yeah, yeah, And then that's the answers you're going 1907 01:33:13,133 --> 01:33:13,372 Speaker 7: to get. 1908 01:33:13,412 --> 01:33:19,133 Speaker 21: It's not it's not doesn't have the human run a 1909 01:33:19,213 --> 01:33:22,852 Speaker 21: sensible bit of thought through a process to excrete see 1910 01:33:22,853 --> 01:33:26,813 Speaker 21: if it makes sense, and it just gives you answers 1911 01:33:27,133 --> 01:33:30,412 Speaker 21: that you based probably cheating off other people's homework to 1912 01:33:30,452 --> 01:33:35,612 Speaker 21: a large group by scaring the web for answers. But yeah, 1913 01:33:35,612 --> 01:33:36,733 Speaker 21: I think it's dangerous. 1914 01:33:37,452 --> 01:33:41,173 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean all AI is doing is well to 1915 01:33:41,253 --> 01:33:43,812 Speaker 2: make it really simple in the land large language models. 1916 01:33:43,853 --> 01:33:46,892 Speaker 2: Is it's predicting what statistically is most likely to be 1917 01:33:47,013 --> 01:33:51,812 Speaker 2: the next word or what do they call them node 1918 01:33:51,893 --> 01:33:54,412 Speaker 2: or whatever, So they break it down so it is 1919 01:33:54,452 --> 01:33:58,492 Speaker 2: all fed from the past. So you know, is it 1920 01:33:58,572 --> 01:34:03,492 Speaker 2: actually being inventive or creative. It's hard to I'm not sure. 1921 01:34:04,053 --> 01:34:07,532 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, you might get what is the 1922 01:34:07,532 --> 01:34:12,972 Speaker 2: most likely policy to be employed from previous policies? 1923 01:34:13,772 --> 01:34:17,692 Speaker 21: Yeah, or the most commonly Yes, I can answer to 1924 01:34:17,732 --> 01:34:19,852 Speaker 21: a question is what will give you whether they're question 1925 01:34:19,973 --> 01:34:20,692 Speaker 21: is right or wrong? 1926 01:34:21,053 --> 01:34:24,732 Speaker 2: Yes, I mean I definitely a deal struggles to deal 1927 01:34:24,732 --> 01:34:26,692 Speaker 2: with sarcasm and humor. 1928 01:34:28,853 --> 01:34:31,572 Speaker 3: It just can't go, don't we all. 1929 01:34:31,933 --> 01:34:37,492 Speaker 2: Yeah, so you definitely can't trust it. But but if 1930 01:34:37,732 --> 01:34:43,293 Speaker 2: you say the Swiss Prime minister and it's just asking 1931 01:34:43,333 --> 01:34:46,093 Speaker 2: you questions that you might not have thought of. So 1932 01:34:46,133 --> 01:34:48,013 Speaker 2: it's reading through and it's going these are the kind 1933 01:34:48,013 --> 01:34:49,452 Speaker 2: of questions. So if you're going, what do you think, 1934 01:34:49,492 --> 01:34:52,133 Speaker 2: you know, what are some problems with us? Then maybe 1935 01:34:52,133 --> 01:34:54,732 Speaker 2: it's just asking generic questions that need to be asked 1936 01:34:54,772 --> 01:34:56,772 Speaker 2: that he might not have might not have thought of. 1937 01:34:56,853 --> 01:34:59,812 Speaker 2: And as long as he then answers those questions himself, 1938 01:34:59,893 --> 01:35:03,532 Speaker 2: then isn't it surely just another tool to to you know, 1939 01:35:04,412 --> 01:35:06,213 Speaker 2: to see what he actually really believes about it and 1940 01:35:06,253 --> 01:35:08,732 Speaker 2: if there are any fishocks in the problem. 1941 01:35:08,973 --> 01:35:12,732 Speaker 21: Yeah. Well, I had a massive conversation with check GPT 1942 01:35:12,853 --> 01:35:16,052 Speaker 21: the other day and I seeded it with the answers 1943 01:35:16,093 --> 01:35:18,732 Speaker 21: that I wanted to go.

The Swiss Prime Minister has come under 2014 01:39:34,333 --> 01:39:37,052 Speaker 3: some heat for using chet GPT to run some policy 2015 01:39:37,093 --> 01:39:39,852 Speaker 3: ideas through to see what it thinks. And there's an 2016 01:39:39,933 --> 01:39:42,652 Speaker 3: MP in the UK that is using a clone AI 2017 01:39:42,652 --> 01:39:46,412 Speaker 3: bot to answer questions of its constituents.

And there's no doubt 2021 01:39:55,772 --> 01:40:00,133 Speaker 2: that politicians will be shoving things through chat, GPT and 2022 01:40:00,173 --> 01:40:01,532 Speaker 2: GROC in New Zealand right now. 2023 01:40:01,572 --> 01:40:03,213 Speaker 3: Absolutely, And how do you feel about that? At eight 2024 01:40:03,213 --> 01:40:05,693 Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty ten eighty is the number. 2025 01:40:05,452 --> 01:40:07,932 Speaker 2: To call Colleen your thoughts. 2026 01:40:09,253 --> 01:40:15,333 Speaker 16: Hello, have you ever interacted with an AI phone system? 2027 01:40:15,412 --> 01:40:19,532 Speaker 3: I think I may have, but yeah, I'm not sure. 2028 01:40:19,572 --> 01:40:20,173 Speaker 3: Tell us more. 2029 01:40:21,372 --> 01:40:24,293 Speaker 16: I had an insurance claim for a broken wind screen 2030 01:40:24,812 --> 01:40:31,213 Speaker 16: and I dealt with the AI phone system. Drove me absolutely. 2031 01:40:32,173 --> 01:40:38,173 Speaker 16: It was so repetitive and so time consuming and so laborious. 2032 01:40:38,612 --> 01:40:41,492 Speaker 16: I kept having to give it the same information, and 2033 01:40:41,652 --> 01:40:44,613 Speaker 16: when I got to the end and answered the questions, 2034 01:40:45,173 --> 01:40:47,133 Speaker 16: it put me through to a person who went through 2035 01:40:47,133 --> 01:40:54,133 Speaker 16: them all again exactly exactly. I literally I timed it 2036 01:40:54,213 --> 01:40:57,133 Speaker 16: and it took eleven minutes for me to get through 2037 01:40:57,173 --> 01:40:59,652 Speaker 16: the AI part of it. And then I hit this lady, 2038 01:40:59,692 --> 01:41:01,612 Speaker 16: and I had to answer them all again, and I'm like, 2039 01:41:02,293 --> 01:41:05,333 Speaker 16: I actually said to her, why why are you torturing me? 2040 01:41:06,133 --> 01:41:11,093 Speaker 2: Honestly, that happens a lot, and I've been through this 2041 01:41:11,173 --> 01:41:12,892 Speaker 2: quite quite a lot now, So all those details blah 2042 01:41:12,893 --> 01:41:14,293 Speaker 2: blah blah blah, and then they go through and it's 2043 01:41:14,293 --> 01:41:17,412 Speaker 2: like it's all started again. And I wonder if it's 2044 01:41:17,532 --> 01:41:19,333 Speaker 2: just to give you something to do to feel like 2045 01:41:19,412 --> 01:41:22,253 Speaker 2: you're progressing while you're waiting in line, because if they 2046 01:41:22,253 --> 01:41:26,772 Speaker 2: don't have it, I'd rather. 2047 01:41:26,692 --> 01:41:30,053 Speaker 16: Listen to music, pipe music. And I'm thinking with it 2048 01:41:30,093 --> 01:41:34,612 Speaker 16: with it being used in government. AI learns by doing right. 2049 01:41:36,293 --> 01:41:39,892 Speaker 16: It learns from the experience of the process of whatever 2050 01:41:40,013 --> 01:41:42,972 Speaker 16: you put through it. So what if you who are 2051 01:41:42,973 --> 01:41:45,412 Speaker 16: we going to learn? Whose version of AI are we 2052 01:41:45,452 --> 01:41:49,253 Speaker 16: going to take the American right wing? Are we going 2053 01:41:49,293 --> 01:41:54,173 Speaker 16: to take the Scandinavian very liberal you know who? Whose 2054 01:41:54,213 --> 01:41:57,812 Speaker 16: policies are we going to homogenize to get ours or 2055 01:41:57,853 --> 01:42:00,093 Speaker 16: are we just going to let people do it and 2056 01:42:00,213 --> 01:42:02,213 Speaker 16: end up with things that are uniquely ours. 2057 01:42:02,532 --> 01:42:05,932 Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's the whole thing about AI. As it's 2058 01:42:06,133 --> 01:42:09,812 Speaker 2: coming up with its results, they have programmers putting in 2059 01:42:10,333 --> 01:42:14,692 Speaker 2: restrictions in guardrails around it to change the answers if 2060 01:42:14,692 --> 01:42:17,412 Speaker 2: they don't like the answers that they're getting. So in 2061 01:42:17,812 --> 01:42:21,132 Speaker 2: the end it becomes human biases get put in there anyway, 2062 01:42:21,173 --> 01:42:22,932 Speaker 2: and it's and it has the biases of what it's 2063 01:42:22,973 --> 01:42:27,213 Speaker 2: trained on as well. Exactly was talking the other day, 2064 01:42:27,253 --> 01:42:30,092 Speaker 2: he's so his his AI that he's in charge of GROC. 2065 01:42:30,213 --> 01:42:32,492 Speaker 2: I mean, he started open AI, which is chet GPT 2066 01:42:32,612 --> 01:42:36,253 Speaker 2: as well, but then he left that company and he's 2067 01:42:36,333 --> 01:42:39,652 Speaker 2: running GROC and he he in his words, he can't believe. 2068 01:42:39,893 --> 01:42:43,213 Speaker 2: He's very frustrated with how woke grockets compared to what 2069 01:42:43,253 --> 01:42:43,973 Speaker 2: he wants it to be. 2070 01:42:45,133 --> 01:42:48,492 Speaker 16: Yes, I know, and you know they when they started 2071 01:42:48,492 --> 01:42:52,133 Speaker 16: developing them, I have I have an X feeling about 2072 01:42:52,173 --> 01:42:55,213 Speaker 16: the ethics of it because part of the development of 2073 01:42:55,333 --> 01:43:00,012 Speaker 16: the programs was they actually resulted in some of the 2074 01:43:00,053 --> 01:43:03,733 Speaker 16: programs becoming so confused and frustrated that they self terminated. 2075 01:43:05,053 --> 01:43:05,532 Speaker 2: Is that right? 2076 01:43:05,772 --> 01:43:09,573 Speaker 16: I just think, oh no, no, no, no, sorry, Fatassic. 2077 01:43:10,173 --> 01:43:11,693 Speaker 16: It's the poor thing to suicide. 2078 01:43:11,732 --> 01:43:15,652 Speaker 2: You know, if you cool calling very good. It would 2079 01:43:15,652 --> 01:43:18,333 Speaker 2: be interesting if if that was the that was the 2080 01:43:18,412 --> 01:43:21,172 Speaker 2: end goal of all. You know, one day chet GPT's 2081 01:43:21,213 --> 01:43:23,052 Speaker 2: like I can't handle this too frustrating. 2082 01:43:23,093 --> 01:43:25,333 Speaker 3: You guys are absolutely insane.

But yes, so 2086 01:43:38,412 --> 01:43:40,652 Speaker 2: they're saying there are many there are so many AI offerings. 2087 01:43:40,652 --> 01:43:43,293 Speaker 2: So government won't be using chet GPT, they will use 2088 01:43:43,333 --> 01:43:46,253 Speaker 2: a paid private vision. Yes, but that Swiss prime minister 2089 01:43:46,372 --> 01:43:47,293 Speaker 2: was using chet GPT. 2090 01:43:47,532 --> 01:43:49,612 Speaker 3: He loved it. Yeah, absolutely, So. 2091 01:43:49,572 --> 01:43:51,372 Speaker 2: You would think there would be some kind of high 2092 01:43:51,532 --> 01:43:57,333 Speaker 2: level advance, locked down governmental AI system that they were using. 2093 01:43:57,412 --> 01:43:58,933 Speaker 3: Yeah, not for the Swiss. 2094 01:43:58,612 --> 01:44:01,053 Speaker 2: But this Swiss poments he just have to through the 2095 01:44:01,053 --> 01:44:03,852 Speaker 2: same chat GPT that we're all using here at home. 2096 01:44:04,013 --> 01:44:06,532 Speaker 3: Yeah.

Yeah. I mean 2106 01:44:31,013 --> 01:44:33,412 Speaker 2: there's a lot of things that we say AI but 2107 01:44:33,532 --> 01:44:36,812 Speaker 2: aren't necessarily and when you're talking to a phone system, 2108 01:44:37,053 --> 01:44:43,972 Speaker 2: it's often just you know, quite simple pathways. You say something, 2109 01:44:44,492 --> 01:44:46,772 Speaker 2: it produces something else that pushes you to something else. 2110 01:44:47,093 --> 01:44:49,173 Speaker 3: Voice recognition rather than proper AI. 2111 01:44:49,293 --> 01:44:52,572 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's not a large language model, so it doesn't 2112 01:44:52,572 --> 01:44:54,892 Speaker 2: actually have very many variables that it can go to. Ye, 2113 01:44:55,053 --> 01:44:56,812 Speaker 2: you know, you're on the phone, it asks you this 2114 01:44:56,893 --> 01:44:59,612 Speaker 2: question and then records that information and then from that 2115 01:44:59,853 --> 01:45:03,892 Speaker 2: ask another question there. It's definitely AI voiced recognition. Yeah, 2116 01:45:03,933 --> 01:45:05,772 Speaker 2: out there, and that's why one of the reasons why 2117 01:45:05,853 --> 01:45:08,333 Speaker 2: voice recognition software is getting so incredible. 2118 01:45:08,492 --> 01:45:10,692 Speaker 3: Be good now absolutely, Oh eight hundred and eighty ten 2119 01:45:10,732 --> 01:45:12,772 Speaker 3: eighties a number to call, so welcome the show. 2120 01:45:14,093 --> 01:45:18,013 Speaker 22: Oh gooday guys, Yeah that was me. That's in that 2121 01:45:18,093 --> 01:45:19,452 Speaker 22: text about the mortgage. 2122 01:45:22,572 --> 01:45:22,812 Speaker 14: Yeah. 2123 01:45:22,973 --> 01:45:24,812 Speaker 22: Look, I spend a lot of time in the space 2124 01:45:25,253 --> 01:45:29,612 Speaker 22: well unfortunately but actually quite enjoy it. AIS and texts 2125 01:45:29,652 --> 01:45:31,093 Speaker 22: and to come a long way as we all know. 2126 01:45:32,692 --> 01:45:35,093 Speaker 22: And voice agents which that lady was talking to are 2127 01:45:35,133 --> 01:45:39,972 Speaker 22: absolutely incredible. But it's all down to that the builder 2128 01:45:40,013 --> 01:45:42,652 Speaker 22: of the AI technology. You can have a bad experience, 2129 01:45:42,652 --> 01:45:45,293 Speaker 22: so we can have a good experience. And if you're 2130 01:45:45,293 --> 01:45:49,772 Speaker 22: building the right knowledge around the AI, then you can 2131 01:45:49,812 --> 01:45:52,412 Speaker 22: have the best dancewers, probably better than you can get 2132 01:45:52,412 --> 01:45:54,732 Speaker 22: from a real person on the telephone, because it has 2133 01:45:54,812 --> 01:45:57,732 Speaker 22: all the data available at hand, or you can go 2134 01:45:57,772 --> 01:46:00,612 Speaker 22: and get the data for you. That's somebody on the 2135 01:46:00,612 --> 01:46:03,652 Speaker 22: phone can't get I get this all the time. You're trying, 2136 01:46:03,772 --> 01:46:06,772 Speaker 22: you know, a large dealership trying to get some parts, 2137 01:46:06,772 --> 01:46:09,053 Speaker 22: and you're on hold on weight, and all you want 2138 01:46:09,133 --> 01:46:11,573 Speaker 22: to know is that something is available or not available. 2139 01:46:12,333 --> 01:46:18,012 Speaker 22: And yeah, there are absolute replacement for many many telephone 2140 01:46:18,093 --> 01:46:21,253 Speaker 22: systems at least. And yeah, if you give the right 2141 01:46:21,293 --> 01:46:23,772 Speaker 22: context to a learning language model, you give it your 2142 01:46:23,772 --> 01:46:27,813 Speaker 22: own training, your own data, it can be absolutely amazing 2143 01:46:28,372 --> 01:46:31,093 Speaker 22: what you can get from an l l M. So 2144 01:46:31,133 --> 01:46:34,372 Speaker 22: it's all about the training and the building of the technology. 2145 01:46:34,893 --> 01:46:37,692 Speaker 22: And there are good and bad and it's I've seen 2146 01:46:37,732 --> 01:46:41,812 Speaker 22: bad implementations of AI, and I've seen excellent invitations of AI. 2147 01:46:42,013 --> 01:46:45,572 Speaker 22: And the mortgage one experience wasn't really an AI that 2148 01:46:45,572 --> 01:46:48,452 Speaker 22: that would just be some voice systems trying to gather 2149 01:46:49,013 --> 01:46:51,613 Speaker 22: you know, gather data. That's a bad experience. 2150 01:46:52,013 --> 01:46:54,972 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's interesting that you talk about invantry because I've run, 2151 01:46:55,492 --> 01:46:58,212 Speaker 2: you know, as a warehouse manager and ran inventory systems 2152 01:46:58,492 --> 01:47:01,652 Speaker 2: for a while. And so if you if you're if 2153 01:47:01,652 --> 01:47:04,652 Speaker 2: you're ringing through and you're asking if you have a product, 2154 01:47:05,013 --> 01:47:08,053 Speaker 2: it's only the system only knows what's been plugged into 2155 01:47:08,053 --> 01:47:11,133 Speaker 2: the sea stem, right, so you know, everyone knows it's 2156 01:47:11,213 --> 01:47:14,293 Speaker 2: running inventory. It says there's definitely one in the store, 2157 01:47:14,612 --> 01:47:16,572 Speaker 2: and then you go out into the store and it's 2158 01:47:16,612 --> 01:47:19,333 Speaker 2: not there. For whatever someone's nick it's been knocked off 2159 01:47:19,333 --> 01:47:22,253 Speaker 2: the shelf. It's you know, who knows a million reasons 2160 01:47:22,293 --> 01:47:25,612 Speaker 2: why it's disappeared. So there is a bit where you 2161 01:47:25,732 --> 01:47:28,372 Speaker 2: need to go to the other level of a person 2162 01:47:28,532 --> 01:47:31,452 Speaker 2: that just goes and comes back and goes, oh, no, 2163 01:47:31,532 --> 01:47:33,572 Speaker 2: we don't have it. I mean, you know, it's been 2164 01:47:33,612 --> 01:47:35,652 Speaker 2: another times when I've been sent to stores so I 2165 01:47:35,692 --> 01:47:36,933 Speaker 2: want to buy a product, they go, we don't have 2166 01:47:36,973 --> 01:47:38,852 Speaker 2: it here, but we've got the version out at Sylvia 2167 01:47:38,893 --> 01:47:40,932 Speaker 2: Park and you drive out there and you get there 2168 01:47:40,933 --> 01:47:42,892 Speaker 2: and they go, oh, it says we've got one on 2169 01:47:42,933 --> 01:47:44,133 Speaker 2: the system, but we don't. 2170 01:47:45,812 --> 01:47:49,492 Speaker 22: Yeah, that's that's not AI. That's just support that. 2171 01:47:50,293 --> 01:47:52,452 Speaker 2: What I'm saying is the AI can only deal with 2172 01:47:52,492 --> 01:47:54,293 Speaker 2: the information that's plugged in. So if you've got an 2173 01:47:54,293 --> 01:47:57,772 Speaker 2: inventory system, if it's being told that it has that 2174 01:47:58,133 --> 01:48:02,172 Speaker 2: in stock, that's only data. It's not necessarily directly related 2175 01:48:02,213 --> 01:48:05,133 Speaker 2: to reality. If you see what I'm saying for Yeah, no. 2176 01:48:05,093 --> 01:48:08,212 Speaker 22: I absolutely agree. But the AI could ask other questions, 2177 01:48:08,372 --> 01:48:11,012 Speaker 22: could say, would you like it delivered? What's your address? 2178 01:48:12,253 --> 01:48:13,732 Speaker 22: You know we don't have we have one in store, 2179 01:48:13,853 --> 01:48:16,013 Speaker 22: it may not be in store. Would you prefer to 2180 01:48:16,013 --> 01:48:19,093 Speaker 22: have it delivered to you? Would you like us to 2181 01:48:19,133 --> 01:48:22,172 Speaker 22: send you an email over which store it actually is at? 2182 01:48:22,412 --> 01:48:25,293 Speaker 22: So you can do a lot more than just you know, 2183 01:48:25,333 --> 01:48:28,652 Speaker 22: talking to an operator. Just as you said, we've all 2184 01:48:28,652 --> 01:48:30,892 Speaker 22: been there. I've got one install book. Something can fined 2185 01:48:30,933 --> 01:48:32,412 Speaker 22: it because you didn't do a good stock take. 2186 01:48:32,652 --> 01:48:35,412 Speaker 3: Yeah. So what would you feel about this idea of 2187 01:48:35,532 --> 01:48:38,213 Speaker 3: the MP who's cloned themselves so it's an AI bot. 2188 01:48:38,253 --> 01:48:41,173 Speaker 3: People can contact this bot whenever they want and it 2189 01:48:41,173 --> 01:48:44,692 Speaker 3: gives them answers to basic information. Would you be okay 2190 01:48:44,692 --> 01:48:46,532 Speaker 3: with that? If a politician in New Zealand did that, 2191 01:48:46,652 --> 01:48:48,492 Speaker 3: and you want to know when your rubbish bins go 2192 01:48:48,492 --> 01:48:50,852 Speaker 3: out or you've got a pothole, then the AI bot 2193 01:48:50,973 --> 01:48:53,013 Speaker 3: might be able to give you as much information as 2194 01:48:53,013 --> 01:48:54,813 Speaker 3: it can that's on the council website. 2195 01:48:54,532 --> 01:48:57,452 Speaker 22: Right, absolutely, one hundred percent. I think it's great because 2196 01:48:57,452 --> 01:49:01,372 Speaker 22: it removes all the all the emotion out of it. 2197 01:49:01,372 --> 01:49:04,053 Speaker 22: It's just standing with facts. Right. So if you're give 2198 01:49:04,053 --> 01:49:07,093 Speaker 22: an AI accessed by an API, which is the way 2199 01:49:07,213 --> 01:49:10,253 Speaker 22: just to get data from very sources, and that sources 2200 01:49:10,293 --> 01:49:13,532 Speaker 22: of data are reliable, then the AI had everything in 2201 01:49:13,612 --> 01:49:16,532 Speaker 22: its hands to talk to rather than you know, talking 2202 01:49:16,572 --> 01:49:18,213 Speaker 22: to someone and operator, let me just go and find 2203 01:49:18,213 --> 01:49:20,012 Speaker 22: out for you or they look it up on Google 2204 01:49:20,133 --> 01:49:25,453 Speaker 22: or do something. Another thing, I think about the politics, 2205 01:49:25,532 --> 01:49:27,732 Speaker 22: the political side of AI. I think this is where 2206 01:49:27,732 --> 01:49:29,772 Speaker 22: it's going. We're going to see some huge change because 2207 01:49:30,093 --> 01:49:32,492 Speaker 22: there's a lot of identity politics going on. It's not 2208 01:49:32,492 --> 01:49:35,133 Speaker 22: necessarily about you know, let's say the quality of a 2209 01:49:35,133 --> 01:49:38,372 Speaker 22: policy or whether that MP has ever delivered anything in 2210 01:49:38,412 --> 01:49:40,652 Speaker 22: the past. They're going to do this, but we don't 2211 01:49:40,652 --> 01:49:44,293 Speaker 22: know if they ever have technology. AI is going to say, well, 2212 01:49:44,372 --> 01:49:46,932 Speaker 22: this MP says he's going to do you know whatever, 2213 01:49:46,973 --> 01:49:49,452 Speaker 22: that delivered these things, but it's actually he's never delivered 2214 01:49:49,452 --> 01:49:52,612 Speaker 22: anything in his life where you know, so it takes 2215 01:49:52,853 --> 01:49:56,293 Speaker 22: all the identity politics. That will take identity politics out 2216 01:49:56,293 --> 01:49:58,452 Speaker 22: of the equation. That's just deal with what have people 2217 01:49:58,452 --> 01:50:01,333 Speaker 22: actually done the past, what are their what KPIs have 2218 01:50:01,412 --> 01:50:04,133 Speaker 22: they delivered in and what the what's their policy? 2219 01:50:04,093 --> 01:50:08,092 Speaker 2: Ye you assume that this chat by they've they've loaded 2220 01:50:08,133 --> 01:50:12,812 Speaker 2: in all this politician's policy and then you're just asking 2221 01:50:12,893 --> 01:50:17,452 Speaker 2: what the policy is. So that's that is dependent on 2222 01:50:17,492 --> 01:50:21,333 Speaker 2: them putting the pop policy across enough thing. So for example, example, 2223 01:50:21,372 --> 01:50:24,333 Speaker 2: right now, the Labor Party doesn't have a lot of policy. 2224 01:50:24,372 --> 01:50:26,892 Speaker 2: They're holding off to the election to try and release 2225 01:50:26,933 --> 01:50:28,612 Speaker 2: it and they don't want to get in trouble in 2226 01:50:28,732 --> 01:50:31,452 Speaker 2: due time or whatever you know as a policy to 2227 01:50:31,452 --> 01:50:34,133 Speaker 2: try and get elected. Right, So if you if the 2228 01:50:34,213 --> 01:50:37,973 Speaker 2: Labor Party chat bot wouldn't be very helpful, would it 2229 01:50:38,053 --> 01:50:39,572 Speaker 2: because they don't have any policy yet? 2230 01:50:40,572 --> 01:50:43,333 Speaker 22: No? No, But then but then again you see that 2231 01:50:43,532 --> 01:50:46,012 Speaker 22: comes down to the prompting. So you know, the way 2232 01:50:46,053 --> 01:50:50,852 Speaker 22: you build the personality, like the guardrails, i'd say what 2233 01:50:51,093 --> 01:50:53,333 Speaker 22: the AI can and can't say that you can't make 2234 01:50:53,412 --> 01:50:57,013 Speaker 22: up things if you know, AIS can't hallucinate. But the 2235 01:50:57,013 --> 01:51:00,093 Speaker 22: way I describe leaving an English models to people is 2236 01:51:00,173 --> 01:51:02,532 Speaker 22: just imagine a blank canvas and then you feed it. 2237 01:51:02,612 --> 01:51:03,093 Speaker 7: Let's say I. 2238 01:51:03,133 --> 01:51:06,612 Speaker 22: Don't know a BMW car manual on a five series something. 2239 01:51:06,652 --> 01:51:09,572 Speaker 22: That's all it knows. Well, know that inside and out 2240 01:51:09,572 --> 01:51:11,972 Speaker 22: and back to front, so you can ask it, you know, questions. 2241 01:51:11,973 --> 01:51:17,293 Speaker 22: It won't know anything about you know, greenhouse greenhouse, greenhouse 2242 01:51:17,293 --> 01:51:20,412 Speaker 22: gases or anything. It'll only know the information that's given. 2243 01:51:20,652 --> 01:51:23,133 Speaker 22: So then if you're feeding it with policies, like you know, 2244 01:51:23,213 --> 01:51:27,133 Speaker 22: good policy documents and then you know legislation except around it, 2245 01:51:27,253 --> 01:51:30,972 Speaker 22: it'll talk precisely around that and accurately around it rather 2246 01:51:31,053 --> 01:51:34,452 Speaker 22: than make things up. And you know, it's not a 2247 01:51:34,492 --> 01:51:39,293 Speaker 22: person you're talking to with emotions which people can be 2248 01:51:39,372 --> 01:51:41,293 Speaker 22: cited to. I like to look at her, and I 2249 01:51:41,372 --> 01:51:43,013 Speaker 22: like to look at her. I like to stand with 2250 01:51:43,053 --> 01:51:46,212 Speaker 22: that voice, you know, So it comes down to facts 2251 01:51:46,293 --> 01:51:48,333 Speaker 22: rather than just you know the person. 2252 01:51:49,253 --> 01:51:51,093 Speaker 3: But then the other side of the coin was the 2253 01:51:51,093 --> 01:51:54,012 Speaker 3: Swiss Prime Minister using chet GPT to get some second 2254 01:51:54,093 --> 01:51:58,173 Speaker 3: second opinions. But the problem with that is, arguably it 2255 01:51:58,253 --> 01:52:00,532 Speaker 3: is excessing if you ask it for pros and cons 2256 01:52:00,532 --> 01:52:03,652 Speaker 3: of a particular policy he's thinking about. Arguably it is 2257 01:52:03,732 --> 01:52:07,892 Speaker 3: colating other people's opinions that have written about that particular policy. 2258 01:52:08,173 --> 01:52:09,932 Speaker 3: So he might see that as a corner or a 2259 01:52:09,933 --> 01:52:12,692 Speaker 3: pro because that argued against that it's going to work. 2260 01:52:12,933 --> 01:52:14,972 Speaker 3: But that is still human opinion, isn't it that chet 2261 01:52:15,053 --> 01:52:18,532 Speaker 3: GPT has collated that is it is. 2262 01:52:18,532 --> 01:52:21,412 Speaker 22: But what i'd look at that we don't know if 2263 01:52:21,412 --> 01:52:24,492 Speaker 22: he actually copied it the baits out of whatever it's said. 2264 01:52:25,213 --> 01:52:27,692 Speaker 22: Sometimes you can use these our lambs to do what 2265 01:52:27,772 --> 01:52:31,093 Speaker 22: I call scaffolding, to give you ideas and to make 2266 01:52:31,133 --> 01:52:33,133 Speaker 22: you think I actually hadn't thought about that out of 2267 01:52:33,133 --> 01:52:35,412 Speaker 22: that actually my thinking. So it might not be a 2268 01:52:35,532 --> 01:52:38,253 Speaker 22: literal context like you know, copy and paste out of it, 2269 01:52:38,532 --> 01:52:41,133 Speaker 22: but it might actually hadn't thought about that. It's a 2270 01:52:41,173 --> 01:52:44,012 Speaker 22: good idea. Maybe I'll know, twist it. So it provides, 2271 01:52:44,492 --> 01:52:46,732 Speaker 22: you know, thought provoking ideas that. 2272 01:52:46,692 --> 01:52:49,173 Speaker 2: You can't would say, what, what are some potential problems 2273 01:52:49,293 --> 01:52:53,853 Speaker 2: here that could happen and similar things you know, and policies, 2274 01:52:53,973 --> 01:52:56,492 Speaker 2: I mean, how widely different are policies from other policies 2275 01:52:56,492 --> 01:52:58,173 Speaker 2: that have been employed somewhere in the world. So you 2276 01:52:58,213 --> 01:53:01,333 Speaker 2: could just say to it, let's look at potential holes, 2277 01:53:01,372 --> 01:53:05,452 Speaker 2: potential unforeseen circumstance, because you know, so one of the 2278 01:53:05,492 --> 01:53:07,692 Speaker 2: main things that happens with laws when they go into 2279 01:53:07,692 --> 01:53:11,932 Speaker 2: there's a whole unforeseen things that happen are unforeseen results. 2280 01:53:11,973 --> 01:53:15,572 Speaker 2: What's the word I'm looking for there? And so if 2281 01:53:15,612 --> 01:53:17,572 Speaker 2: you're just going through you this has all been written up, 2282 01:53:17,572 --> 01:53:19,173 Speaker 2: it's pages and pages. I'm trying to get my head 2283 01:53:19,173 --> 01:53:21,412 Speaker 2: around it loaded in there? Can you can you see 2284 01:53:21,452 --> 01:53:23,013 Speaker 2: any problems? And then as long as you run it 2285 01:53:23,013 --> 01:53:27,173 Speaker 2: through a flesh brain afterwards and you're actually what you 2286 01:53:27,253 --> 01:53:29,692 Speaker 2: decide to do in the end, you know, as you say, 2287 01:53:29,812 --> 01:53:31,772 Speaker 2: it's not putting it in there and whatever comes out 2288 01:53:31,772 --> 01:53:33,732 Speaker 2: the other end you immediately put to the people and 2289 01:53:33,772 --> 01:53:36,533 Speaker 2: try and put into law. That would be a problem. 2290 01:53:36,612 --> 01:53:38,133 Speaker 2: But if you if you look at it and it 2291 01:53:38,173 --> 01:53:40,133 Speaker 2: can come up with some potential problems that you might 2292 01:53:40,133 --> 01:53:44,892 Speaker 2: have missed, ask some questions, some probing questions, then bloody 2293 01:53:44,893 --> 01:53:46,293 Speaker 2: great that makes sense. 2294 01:53:47,133 --> 01:53:51,732 Speaker 22: Yeah, I'll tell you something else that AI and coding 2295 01:53:51,732 --> 01:53:54,772 Speaker 22: and technology you know, software developers have created, you know, 2296 01:53:54,853 --> 01:53:58,173 Speaker 22: Roger the ome back anyhow, because that's where AI is 2297 01:53:58,293 --> 01:54:00,973 Speaker 22: really good. Because coding is literal, it's either that or 2298 01:54:01,013 --> 01:54:05,452 Speaker 22: it's not. It's sort of binary where common language. It's 2299 01:54:05,572 --> 01:54:10,012 Speaker 22: like it's there are variations of it. We're seeing software 2300 01:54:10,053 --> 01:54:13,293 Speaker 22: now because we're actually just using AI to write our 2301 01:54:13,412 --> 01:54:15,772 Speaker 22: code for as anymore. You know, software developers are sort 2302 01:54:15,772 --> 01:54:18,133 Speaker 22: of going to become a dying breed. It's good to 2303 01:54:18,173 --> 01:54:20,452 Speaker 22: have the knowledge still, and you know when you've when 2304 01:54:20,492 --> 01:54:24,293 Speaker 22: things really fall over to have a developer. But AI 2305 01:54:24,452 --> 01:54:28,692 Speaker 22: is building so much in the software now, quite scary 2306 01:54:29,372 --> 01:54:32,052 Speaker 22: seed developments on a daily basis which are worrying. 2307 01:54:33,333 --> 01:54:34,972 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, thank you so much for you call. 2308 01:54:35,013 --> 01:54:38,133 Speaker 3: Phil, appreciate it, Thank you very much.

I think a lot of national 2317 01:55:04,253 --> 01:55:07,653 Speaker 2: voters might be quite surprised at some of the things 2318 01:55:07,653 --> 01:55:10,693 Speaker 2: that they're have put in there. Yeah, pretty progressive for 2319 01:55:10,772 --> 01:55:15,772 Speaker 2: their guidance. Yeah, on the use of AI and public services, Yeah, 2320 01:55:15,853 --> 01:55:18,973 Speaker 2: look that up the Public Service Artificial Intelligence Framework and 2321 01:55:19,093 --> 01:55:20,293 Speaker 2: download the graph. 2322 01:55:20,453 --> 01:55:22,613 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's interesting stuff.
