1 00:00:01,880 --> 00:00:06,200 Speaker 1: Broadcasting live from the Abraham Lincoln Radio Studio, the George 2 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:10,920 Speaker 1: Washington Broadcast Center, Jack Armstrong, Joe Getty, arm Strong and 3 00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:22,400 Speaker 1: Jetty and now he Armstrong and Getty. 4 00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 2: President Trump assigned a new executive order aimed at speeding 5 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:33,440 Speaker 2: up recovery from major wildfires in California last year, But 6 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,320 Speaker 2: rather than just offering assistance, he's taken aim at state 7 00:00:36,360 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 2: and local officials, accusing them of approving only some permits 8 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 2: required for rebuilding. The guidance says the Department of Homeland 9 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 2: Security will now oversee the process. California Governor Gavin Newsom 10 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 2: is pushing back against any allegations of wrongdoing. He says 11 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: Californians didn't need an expedited permit process. 12 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:53,519 Speaker 1: They need money to rebuild. 13 00:00:54,480 --> 00:01:00,200 Speaker 3: Okay, I think if Gavin Newsom is involved, you can 14 00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:04,280 Speaker 3: just assume there's malfeasance or poor management. 15 00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,280 Speaker 4: Okay, So but you see the deal though, Gavin is 16 00:01:07,319 --> 00:01:11,399 Speaker 4: the story isn't people have their permits but don't have money. 17 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,400 Speaker 4: That could be true, but that's not what the story is. 18 00:01:13,440 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 4: The story is they don't have their permits yet, so 19 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 4: red paperwork, bad governance. 20 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:21,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, the next voice, you're going to hear significantly. Jack, 21 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 3: you just mentioned this last hour, and we'll talk more 22 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,800 Speaker 3: about it in a second. This is Joe Pollock reporting 23 00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:29,840 Speaker 3: for the California Post, the New West Coast outlet of 24 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 3: the New York Post. 25 00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 5: The executive Order essentially takes over the permitting process, especially 26 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,800 Speaker 5: where any federal money is involved, at the state and 27 00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,440 Speaker 5: local level, with the goal of speeding up the rebuilding process, 28 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,920 Speaker 5: not just in Pacific Palisades, but also in the area 29 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:46,560 Speaker 5: of the Eaton fire. And there's a separate section of 30 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 5: the executive Order that looks at three billion dollars that 31 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 5: the federal government gave to the state of California for 32 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 5: spending to prevent or mitigate wildfires, and they want to 33 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 5: look at what happened to the money and how it 34 00:01:58,440 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 5: was spent. 35 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:05,680 Speaker 3: That's weird asking accountability for giant piles of government spending. 36 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:10,800 Speaker 4: Why say this out loud to all of us, including 37 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 4: executive producer Hanson. If we don't develop a relationship with 38 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 4: the California Post like yesterday where we get some of 39 00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 4: the reporters on, we're really making a mistake because obviously 40 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,760 Speaker 4: they really really want to let people know they're out 41 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,480 Speaker 4: here doing their thing and We're perfect for them, absolutely perfect. 42 00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 4: It's hand in a glove, fits like Ojay's glove, perxactly. 43 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 4: We can get this going. So here's a California Post 44 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 4: story from yesterday. And it's always bothered me. It's always 45 00:02:40,880 --> 00:02:44,240 Speaker 4: bothered me that New York. Anything that happens in New 46 00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:47,360 Speaker 4: York gets national attention. Things happen in Los Angeles or California, 47 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,880 Speaker 4: he pays any attention. It's never made any sense. The 48 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,560 Speaker 4: LA Times used to be a really big deal back 49 00:02:52,600 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 4: in the day. I looked at them as like the 50 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 4: equivalent of the New York Times. Just what But it 51 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:58,680 Speaker 4: fell off for all kinds of different reasons We've talked 52 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:02,680 Speaker 4: about over the years. California Post can make some headway 53 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 4: on that. But if this happened in New York, it 54 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 4: would have gotten news. You haven't heard about it. Probably yesterday, 55 00:03:07,680 --> 00:03:14,640 Speaker 4: radical leftist agitators ambushed an LA Police Commission meeting, screaming 56 00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 4: obscenities at officers and accusing the department of being murderers, 57 00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 4: before viciously turning on a California Post journalist. Around forty agitators, 58 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,639 Speaker 4: many of them obscuring their faces with medical masks and 59 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 4: cafia scarves. 60 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:29,119 Speaker 1: Imagine the video of this in New York. It would 61 00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:29,800 Speaker 1: be everywhere. 62 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 4: ATIFA having in LA yesterday around forty agitators chanting f 63 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 4: The police assailed the officers as pigs and shouted anti 64 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 4: law enforcement slogans. As they're increasingly disruptive, antics ground the 65 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 4: proceedings to a halt, which, of course was the point. 66 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:49,040 Speaker 4: The unhinged radicals tried to use their intimidation tactic Post 67 00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 4: reporter Jamie Page, who was covering the public meeting, peppering 68 00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:55,120 Speaker 4: her with insults and attempting to physically block her camera, 69 00:03:55,400 --> 00:03:58,640 Speaker 4: screaming at her, getting in her face. You're afraid of me, 70 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:03,400 Speaker 4: aren't you, one well known agitator seed at the Post reporter. 71 00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, terrorizing a young woman, trying to provoke a reaction, 72 00:04:07,240 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 3: desperately hoping for violence and chaos. When will we wake 73 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,840 Speaker 3: up to the fact that that's what these radicals are 74 00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:13,320 Speaker 3: going for? 75 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:20,359 Speaker 4: Well, right, and scaring a reporter who's there covering a 76 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 4: police commission meeting, which is exactly what likes like one 77 00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 4: of your number one news things that should ever happen locally, right, right, 78 00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:34,120 Speaker 4: But again, you're like looking for reasonableness or a reasonable 79 00:04:34,160 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 4: explanation of what they're doing and why they're doing it. 80 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 4: They seek to overthrow the system. They're trying to get 81 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,240 Speaker 4: it to crash. That's their only purpose. Pretty awful that 82 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 4: it doesn't get more attention than this. 83 00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,160 Speaker 3: You know you're right though, you think you could, you know, 84 00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:50,440 Speaker 3: illustrate to a reasonable center left person. Well wait a minute, 85 00:04:50,480 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 3: Wait a minute, why would they be angrily protesting covering 86 00:04:55,240 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 3: a meeting where the police are being held to account? 87 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:00,520 Speaker 1: Does that make any sense to you? Now? 88 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:02,799 Speaker 3: Maybe you believe me that these people are just radical 89 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 3: has been on overthrowing liberal democracies, but people don't want 90 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:07,440 Speaker 3: to hear it or they don't believe it. 91 00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:13,360 Speaker 4: That whole acting crazy and aggressive and then screaming at people. 92 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: You're afraid of me, aren't you?

The Doomsday Clock, 228 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,520 Speaker 4: which if you don't know what it is, we'll explain 229 00:11:19,600 --> 00:11:22,640 Speaker 4: it here in a second, got moved to eighty five 230 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:25,960 Speaker 4: seconds to midnight, the closest to midnight it's ever been, 231 00:11:26,040 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 4: with midnight being the apocalypse. 232 00:11:29,920 --> 00:11:31,760 Speaker 1: I should have asked for some sort of scary sound. 233 00:11:31,800 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, Michael, the doomsday Oh no, not the apocalypse. 234 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 3: These the Doomsday clock, a metaphorical time pace, time piece 235 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 3: meant to depict how close humanity is to destruction, ticked 236 00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:52,560 Speaker 3: closer than ever to midnight over the weekend. This's got 237 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:56,600 Speaker 3: lots of news because for some reason, we are built 238 00:11:56,720 --> 00:12:01,600 Speaker 3: to a sign, a person or a pan with like 239 00:12:02,920 --> 00:12:06,560 Speaker 3: the all knowing responsibility of declaring things, and then we 240 00:12:06,600 --> 00:12:10,200 Speaker 3: take it seriously in a way that's odd, like Nobel 241 00:12:10,280 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 3: prizes or Politzer prizes, or the Doomsday clock, or lots 242 00:12:13,640 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 3: of different things, like we just assume that these eight 243 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:21,719 Speaker 3: yea who's have way more insight given to them from 244 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,320 Speaker 3: God or something than any other group of people possibly could, 245 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:27,600 Speaker 3: or you on your own right, nobody says, wait a minute, 246 00:12:27,640 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 3: who are these people, what are their standards? Blah blah blah. 247 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:32,000 Speaker 3: You know what the greatest examples of that are is 248 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:36,200 Speaker 3: like the AMA and the American Pediatric Doctors, who are 249 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:37,559 Speaker 3: radical leftist groups. 250 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,200 Speaker 4: So it's the grimmest outlook yet on Earth's future. From 251 00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:45,440 Speaker 4: the clock's creators, which is a non profit organization and 252 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 4: publication called The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists that has 253 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,000 Speaker 4: set the clock each year since nineteen forty seven. The 254 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:55,040 Speaker 4: original idea was, once the Soviet Union got the bomb, 255 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 4: that okay, how close are we to nuclear armageddon? And 256 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:02,320 Speaker 4: we're going to kind of use as a when tensions 257 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:04,520 Speaker 4: get hot between US and the Soviet Union and then 258 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 4: other countries started to getting the bomb, you know, we'll 259 00:13:06,880 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 4: move the clock closer to try to just kind of 260 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 4: alert people that I think we're really close to, like, oh, 261 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 4: out nuclear war here or after the Cold War. 262 00:13:14,640 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 1: I've got the chart here. 263 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 4: Over the years, right after the Soviet Union fell, the 264 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,959 Speaker 4: clock got moved back to like seventeen minutes to midnight, 265 00:13:24,040 --> 00:13:26,520 Speaker 4: like we're a long way from armageddon. 266 00:13:26,040 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: At that time. This is the way they looked at it. 267 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:32,480 Speaker 4: But it's been going up, up, up, up, up closer 268 00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 4: to midnight ever since. And it's the closest it's ever 269 00:13:34,640 --> 00:13:38,600 Speaker 4: been because they added in other stuff, not just nuclear armageddon. 270 00:13:38,840 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: They included guess what I mean, Neil, you know the 271 00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 1: answer to this question, climate change. 272 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:46,080 Speaker 4: They factored in climate change starting quite a few years ago. 273 00:13:46,120 --> 00:13:49,400 Speaker 1: It's unbelievable. And now the rise of autocracy, and you 274 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 1: know that's all Trump. You know that's all Trump. 275 00:13:53,080 --> 00:13:55,840 Speaker 3: Right, because you got an autocrat and he gets hot 276 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:58,280 Speaker 3: because the climate change, he's probably gonna push the button. 277 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:04,640 Speaker 4: Failure, there's failures in climate action, disruptive technologies like AI, 278 00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 4: which is another one to throw in, and the rise 279 00:14:06,920 --> 00:14:09,760 Speaker 4: of autocracy among the reasons that they had to move 280 00:14:09,800 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 4: it closer to midnight than it has ever been before. 281 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:17,400 Speaker 4: The idea that the world is closer to blowing itself 282 00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,040 Speaker 4: up than it was during the Cuban Missile crisis or 283 00:14:20,080 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 4: at various times like during the eighties with the Soviet 284 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:28,280 Speaker 4: Union is just dumb. But the whole concept is dumb. 285 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,520 Speaker 4: What's dumb is that anybody pays any attention to it. 286 00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:35,960 Speaker 4: Here's here, here's I lost it. Here's Charles CW. A. 287 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:38,800 Speaker 4: Cook of the National Review. This is truly the stupidest 288 00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 4: concept in the world. During the Cuban Missile Crisis, the 289 00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 4: clock stayed at seven minutes till midnight and moved back 290 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:46,720 Speaker 4: at the next review to twelve minutes. 291 00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: So it was the Cuban. 292 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:50,920 Speaker 4: Missile crisis it was seven minutes. We've moved up almost 293 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:52,840 Speaker 4: well six minutes since then. 294 00:14:52,840 --> 00:14:54,000 Speaker 1: Which is just nuts. 295 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:56,880 Speaker 3: I just I questioned the whole clock thing in the 296 00:14:56,880 --> 00:15:00,280 Speaker 3: their scale. I mean, if the after the end of 297 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,720 Speaker 3: the Cold War, briefly that it was just seventeen minutes 298 00:15:03,760 --> 00:15:06,000 Speaker 3: till midnight. I mean, if somebody told me you're gonna 299 00:15:06,040 --> 00:15:10,200 Speaker 3: die in seventeen minutes, or you're gonna receive unbelievable wealth 300 00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,480 Speaker 3: in seventeen minutes, or anything you know of incredible importance, 301 00:15:13,640 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 3: that's like, now, that's right now, I don't even have 302 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 3: time to take a shower. 303 00:15:18,000 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, it's out of whack, because if you told me, 304 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 4: like my health was at a quarter to quarter till 305 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,120 Speaker 4: midnight and midnight being dying, I'd think. 306 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:28,360 Speaker 1: Oh crap, I got to make some changes in my life. 307 00:15:28,680 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 3: So it's obviously designed to be overwrought and from the 308 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 3: beginning yeah, yeah, I appreciate their intent. Hey, let's not 309 00:15:35,480 --> 00:15:38,240 Speaker 3: go too far down this road. Remember, everybody's bristling with 310 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:38,880 Speaker 3: nuclear arms. 311 00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 1: I get that. I think it's a good thing. But yeah, 312 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:41,760 Speaker 1: like I think. 313 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:45,000 Speaker 3: You're analysis was a spot on, Like so many of 314 00:15:45,040 --> 00:15:47,760 Speaker 3: these institutions of old that may have started. 315 00:15:47,800 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: It's like, you know, the NAACP. 316 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 3: There's all sorts of examples that, Yeah, back in the day, 317 00:15:52,800 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 3: they were fine, they were good, but they've become something 318 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 3: completely different. 319 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:04,760 Speaker 4: Enough, uh, although the world order is unsettled as it's 320 00:16:04,800 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 4: been in a very, very, very long time. I mean, 321 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:10,080 Speaker 4: if they wanted to make that argument, you know, I'm 322 00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 4: all for it. So Russia attacked a civilian train in 323 00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 4: Ukraine overnight, killing a bunch of people, and that is 324 00:16:18,800 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 4: Zelenski put out a heck of a post saying this 325 00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:24,400 Speaker 4: is out of bounds war crime anywhere on Earth. If 326 00:16:24,440 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 4: this happened in China or the United States or any 327 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:31,240 Speaker 4: African country or anywhere, this would be declared a war crime. 328 00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 4: You cannot put up with. Leaders of the UN would 329 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 4: be coming out blah blah blah blah, and nobody's saying anything. 330 00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: You can't attract some. 331 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 4: Passenger train out in the rural part of Ukraine as 332 00:16:41,760 --> 00:16:45,000 Speaker 4: part of your war. It's just terrorism, Yeah, it is, 333 00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 4: and it is amazing how it just doesn't get much 334 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:49,040 Speaker 4: of attention. We're coming up on, like in a week, 335 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,040 Speaker 4: the four year anniversary, and they announced the totals today. 336 00:16:52,080 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 4: The latest totals two million people have died, gone missing, 337 00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,600 Speaker 4: or taken off the battlefield to injury. 338 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:03,640 Speaker 1: Million. Good lord, that's a big number. 339 00:17:04,440 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 4: If you missed a segment of the show, get the 340 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:08,320 Speaker 4: podcast Armstrong and Getty on demand. 341 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:11,600 Speaker 3: Armstrong and Getty. 342 00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:16,239 Speaker 4: Men all worked up about football, like if you're if 343 00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:18,119 Speaker 4: you're into it and you're following the playoffs week by 344 00:17:18,119 --> 00:17:19,879 Speaker 4: week end of the season in the playoffs and then 345 00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:23,479 Speaker 4: that week in between the championship games in the Super Bowls. 346 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:26,200 Speaker 1: Seems so weird because he got this momentum. 347 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 3: Going, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna have to like spend time 348 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:31,800 Speaker 3: with friends and families. 349 00:17:32,640 --> 00:17:33,680 Speaker 1: Queen the garage. 350 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:37,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, So I remember, I was completely unaware until as 351 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: a fairly advanced age that back in the day when 352 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 3: Thomas Edison was trying to get to electric power going 353 00:17:43,600 --> 00:17:46,320 Speaker 3: and electric lights, there was a big disagreement. There was 354 00:17:46,359 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 3: a war between alternating current and what's the what's DC 355 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:54,199 Speaker 3: stand for again? Direct Current? And and Edison was an 356 00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 3: AC guy. Who's who's the main DC guy? I can't 357 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:03,719 Speaker 3: remember Herman Melville, I don't know Angus Young, but I 358 00:18:03,760 --> 00:18:06,840 Speaker 3: remember first hearing somebody saying, you know, DC was a 359 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:09,560 Speaker 3: better idea. But it was like hearing somebody say that, oh, 360 00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 3: Lincoln was wrong. We should have kept the slaves. I mean, 361 00:18:11,840 --> 00:18:15,080 Speaker 3: because Edison was such a hero and everything good. But 362 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,040 Speaker 3: I thought it was interesting that, you know, it was 363 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:18,359 Speaker 3: not clear which way it was going to go. 364 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: It just happened. 365 00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:23,560 Speaker 4: Sometimes a less important version would be VHS versus what back. 366 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:23,840 Speaker 1: In the day. 367 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 4: Yeah, beta, beta, Yeah, there's different kinds of ways to 368 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:31,399 Speaker 4: record TV shows for the first time, and the worst 369 00:18:31,440 --> 00:18:34,200 Speaker 4: technology won out. But sometimes that happens. 370 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, why did VHS triumph? I can't somehow I just 371 00:18:37,320 --> 00:18:41,000 Speaker 3: got like got in faster or whatever. That just happened 372 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:44,400 Speaker 3: to voted more aggressive. Yeah, and I don't remember. If 373 00:18:44,400 --> 00:18:46,000 Speaker 3: you know, hit us with an email, if that would 374 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:47,200 Speaker 3: make you happy, I will read it. 375 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: Well. 376 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:50,480 Speaker 3: A similar battle is going on right now between two 377 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 3: different self driving car technologies, and one of them is 378 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:57,200 Speaker 3: going to take over, and there are hundreds of billions 379 00:18:57,200 --> 00:18:58,720 Speaker 3: trillions of dollars at stake. 380 00:18:59,320 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 1: Uh. 381 00:19:00,960 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 3: In this corner you have Weymo, which has on its 382 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 3: roof a mounted liightar rig that spins continuously. It's a 383 00:19:08,640 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 3: radar system essentially. 384 00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 1: It's cool. 385 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 4: If you've never seen a weay mo, it looks really 386 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,280 Speaker 4: really cool. It looks very space age. You get this 387 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 4: big on spinning round and round and round. It gives 388 00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 4: it the real robot look. Yeah, very space agey. Yeah. 389 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 3: So it sends out laser pulses continually that bounce back 390 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:30,919 Speaker 3: from the road, storefronts, other vehicles, pedestrians, while radar signals 391 00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 3: emanate from its bumpers and side panels. The Waymo uses 392 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 3: these sensors to generate a detailed three D model of 393 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:40,760 Speaker 3: its surroundings, detecting pedestrians and cars that human drivers might 394 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 3: struggle to see. In the other corner, you have Tesla's technology. 395 00:19:47,080 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 3: It operating in the full unsuperficed self driving mode. It 396 00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:54,399 Speaker 3: has no light, no radar, just eight cameras housed in 397 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 3: pockets of glass. The car processes these video feeds through 398 00:19:58,000 --> 00:20:01,719 Speaker 3: a neural network, identifying object, estimating their dimensions, planning its 399 00:20:01,760 --> 00:20:02,760 Speaker 3: path accordingly. 400 00:20:03,680 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 4: And well, there's something there's something different that happened with 401 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:09,919 Speaker 4: Tesla because it went from. 402 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:12,400 Speaker 1: They switched a couple of years ago. 403 00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:14,919 Speaker 4: Because I got the newest one and it it I 404 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,679 Speaker 4: don't remember what it's called. But it's got a different 405 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 4: look to it. But it's not just cameras. It's something 406 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:24,400 Speaker 4: else AnyWho, I know, they're different technologies. Uh yeah, well, 407 00:20:24,480 --> 00:20:25,520 Speaker 4: I don't know about that. 408 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:30,280 Speaker 3: Not just cameras according to this, uh certainly, certainly the 409 00:20:30,320 --> 00:20:32,120 Speaker 3: way it portrays it on the screen, it doesn't look 410 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 3: like it's just cameras. Interesting cameras anyway, one of the 411 00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:39,879 Speaker 3: others gonna win with it. 412 00:20:39,920 --> 00:20:40,240 Speaker 1: I don't know. 413 00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 4: I want to get into a huge amount of detail. 414 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,840 Speaker 4: I was I my cyber truck drove me to work today, 415 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 4: and I like to put it in mad max mode, 416 00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:52,280 Speaker 4: where it is its most aggressive mode. It's actually a 417 00:20:52,320 --> 00:20:54,760 Speaker 4: little it's more aggressive than I drive, So it's a 418 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:59,160 Speaker 4: little unnerving sometimes, but driving me to work, and it's 419 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 4: gotten so good. But regularly, like the off ramps coming up, 420 00:21:02,359 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 4: and I think, shouldn't you be over by now? I 421 00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,239 Speaker 4: mean I would be over in the other lane by now, 422 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:07,920 Speaker 4: And I just sit there and wait and see, how's 423 00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,160 Speaker 4: it going to make this happen, but it finds a hole, 424 00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,240 Speaker 4: it figures it out, calculating all the different speeds and 425 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:14,960 Speaker 4: people coming from this direction of that direction. 426 00:21:15,000 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 1: It's really quite amazing. Wow, how interesting. 427 00:21:19,040 --> 00:21:21,800 Speaker 3: But anyway, the Tesla idea is that what humans can 428 00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:24,359 Speaker 3: do with their eyeballs in a brain, a car must 429 00:21:24,400 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 3: also be able to do with sufficient cameras and computers. 430 00:21:27,800 --> 00:21:30,320 Speaker 3: If a human can drive without lightar, so too can 431 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 3: an autonomous vehicle or so. 432 00:21:32,760 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 4: Tesla claims, Well, there's got to be something obviously is 433 00:21:35,640 --> 00:21:37,879 Speaker 4: going on because it calculates distances and it puts it 434 00:21:37,920 --> 00:21:40,479 Speaker 4: on the screen. You're now thirty six inches, you're now 435 00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,000 Speaker 4: thirty two inches. Well, my brain can't do that, So 436 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 4: there's something happening with the cameras or something. 437 00:21:47,440 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, your brain does do that, it just doesn't number. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 438 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:54,200 Speaker 3: I better stop r'ng. Going to hit my wife's car 439 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 3: in the garage, you know, it's right, and she's going 440 00:21:55,800 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 3: to be so mad, right right, So, they mentioned that 441 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 3: the global taxi and ride haling market is at about 442 00:22:05,320 --> 00:22:07,880 Speaker 3: a quarter of a trillion dollars a year right now, 443 00:22:08,000 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 3: and we'll reach three quarters of trillion dollars within ten 444 00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 3: years or so. So it's an enormous technical question. 445 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,240 Speaker 4: So Elon says that the current technology's gotten Tesla's is 446 00:22:16,359 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 4: enough to go fully, I forget what the term it is, 447 00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:25,640 Speaker 4: but you don't have to pay attention anymore. Currently you're 448 00:22:25,640 --> 00:22:30,000 Speaker 4: supposed to pay attention, but he clearly adjusts that from 449 00:22:30,040 --> 00:22:32,160 Speaker 4: time to time on how much you need to pay attention. 450 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,440 Speaker 4: When I first got a Tesla self driving Tesla, if 451 00:22:35,440 --> 00:22:38,240 Speaker 4: you took your eyes off the road for a second 452 00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:41,520 Speaker 4: and a half, it'd go, I mean you couldn't, you couldn't, 453 00:22:41,560 --> 00:22:43,560 Speaker 4: And and it was really I hardly ever used it 454 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,479 Speaker 4: because it was really like, well, what's the point of this, 455 00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:47,359 Speaker 4: What am I doing here? 456 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 1: I might as well just drive. 457 00:22:49,440 --> 00:22:52,720 Speaker 4: Then it comes and goes on how slack it is, 458 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,120 Speaker 4: and right now it's really damn slack. I can pick 459 00:22:55,160 --> 00:22:57,800 Speaker 4: up my phone, scroll through some text. It might after 460 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:01,200 Speaker 4: thirty seconds give me a little judge that hey, pay attention, 461 00:23:01,640 --> 00:23:04,120 Speaker 4: but it lets me kind of yeah, because if I can't, 462 00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:07,160 Speaker 4: because if I can't check emails or do whatever I want, 463 00:23:07,200 --> 00:23:09,159 Speaker 4: I don't understand the point of self driving. 464 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 3: Well, it's not that my arms are so tired I 465 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 3: can't stay anymore, right And I know it's safer, but 466 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 3: I mean that's not going to be the big draw. 467 00:23:16,600 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 3: I don't actually worry about dying in a crash on 468 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,760 Speaker 3: the way to work every day. So the final note 469 00:23:20,800 --> 00:23:23,400 Speaker 3: on this topic, and I wish there was more information 470 00:23:23,440 --> 00:23:26,640 Speaker 3: on this. Fantasies of self driving vehicles are ancient, having 471 00:23:26,720 --> 00:23:31,680 Speaker 3: appeared in Aristotle's Politics, which I read in school and 472 00:23:31,800 --> 00:23:35,679 Speaker 3: then came with a chariot with no horse nor driver 473 00:23:35,960 --> 00:23:38,399 Speaker 3: yet know which way to go. I have no idea 474 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,399 Speaker 3: what that reference is. And also the Arabian nights. Is 475 00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 3: that your magic carpet? 476 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: Maybe? Yeah, anyway, ancient fantasy. 477 00:23:45,320 --> 00:23:49,520 Speaker 3: The first functional robo taxi emerged in nineteen ninety four 478 00:23:49,840 --> 00:23:53,119 Speaker 3: when Germany engineer I combined tours just to save time. 479 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:58,760 Speaker 3: I'm very busy, some would say German engineer, I say Germany. 480 00:24:00,440 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 3: Ernst Dickman's installed a rudimentary automated driving system into two 481 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:07,119 Speaker 3: Mercedes Sedans. It was able to drive on European highways. 482 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:09,239 Speaker 3: It speeds up to one hundred and thirty kilometers per 483 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:13,440 Speaker 3: hour while maintaining lane position and even executing passing maneuvers 484 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,880 Speaker 3: in traffic. He had been testing prototypes for a number 485 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:19,399 Speaker 3: of years and they it was just two sets of 486 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 3: forward facing video cameras of various sorts in a you know, 487 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,720 Speaker 3: a nineteen nineties style computer. 488 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:30,919 Speaker 1: So I don't know if this is still true with Weimo. 489 00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:33,600 Speaker 4: I should look into this, but I know originally with Weaimo, 490 00:24:33,760 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 4: their technology was because like they sent all the cars 491 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,240 Speaker 4: around San Francisco for a very long time, they just 492 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:44,639 Speaker 4: mapped the entire city. So they had every single road, alley, sidewalk, 493 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 4: bike lane, everything in their computer and then the car 494 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 4: could follow that. And that's why it was restricted to 495 00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:54,959 Speaker 4: you know, that city until they mapped another city. And 496 00:24:55,400 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 4: whereas Tesla is not doing that. It's just like you said, 497 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 4: it's like using your eyeballs. It's got eyeballs and places 498 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 4: where you can't have eyeballs and reacting to situations a 499 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,160 Speaker 4: little bit. I wonder if you could combine the two 500 00:25:06,200 --> 00:25:08,040 Speaker 4: mapping everything in the eyeballs. 501 00:25:08,520 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 1: Yeah. 502 00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:12,680 Speaker 3: The obvious limitation on mapping is if there's construction or whatever. 503 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 3: You have those infamous episodes where a way most stuck 504 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:17,359 Speaker 3: in the middle of an intersection, or I. 505 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 4: Know everybody says to me, I don't think I could 506 00:25:20,480 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 4: get to where I trust it to drive without looking. 507 00:25:23,440 --> 00:25:25,359 Speaker 4: That's what I thought too, until you use it like 508 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 4: ten times and you realize it's perfect. It's better than 509 00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 4: I probably am. It doesn't like every once in a while, 510 00:25:30,720 --> 00:25:32,600 Speaker 4: think what am I supposed to do for dinner tonight? 511 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 1: I wonder you know why you're driving? 512 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:38,800 Speaker 4: It doesn't do that seat No, no, not to the 513 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 4: point you can sit in the back seat. But when 514 00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 4: it goes fully automatic, automated, where you could go to 515 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 4: our will it ever? Will laws or insurance companies ever 516 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:49,280 Speaker 4: let it go fully? You don't have to pay attention. Way, well, 517 00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 4: you don't have to pay attention obviously you're in a taxi. 518 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,440 Speaker 4: It's not my job to pay attention when I'm riding 519 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 4: in a taxi. Right when, clearly, when Tesla's or whatever 520 00:25:57,200 --> 00:25:59,280 Speaker 4: can get to that technology, am I allowed to sleep, 521 00:25:59,520 --> 00:26:02,960 Speaker 4: get a half napping on the way home, or just 522 00:26:03,040 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 4: completely dedicate myself. 523 00:26:04,440 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: To or watch the football game. 524 00:26:06,080 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 3: That'd be awesome, Or do some curls something, bring some 525 00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:13,440 Speaker 3: some weights with you, little kettlebell work, kettlebell swings. Ah, 526 00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:15,639 Speaker 3: I was doing those in the gym yesterday because I'm 527 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:20,320 Speaker 3: better than you anyway. In answer your question, yeah, absolutely clearly, 528 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,479 Speaker 3: And it won't be terribly long fully automated self driving. 529 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll tell you what that's appealing. 530 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 4: The i've got to pay attention or yell at me 531 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,520 Speaker 4: was not that appealing to me, so I didn't use. 532 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:31,920 Speaker 1: It very often. 533 00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 3: But that's our system around here, right, right, right. But 534 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:40,200 Speaker 3: then of course comes the dystopia. Then the government will 535 00:26:40,240 --> 00:26:43,919 Speaker 3: forbid humans from driving. Yeah, because you know, honestly, the 536 00:26:43,960 --> 00:26:46,199 Speaker 3: computers will have a hell of a lot fewer res 537 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:49,160 Speaker 3: than people. I'm not talking about you people, I'm talking 538 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 3: about the people all around you. Look around you count 539 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 3: what percentage of the people you see around you in traffic? 540 00:26:54,520 --> 00:26:56,200 Speaker 1: There probably idiots. 541 00:26:55,920 --> 00:27:00,400 Speaker 4: Unless you unless you're really disciplined. Every disciplined, everybody looking 542 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 4: at their phone more than they should when they drive. 543 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 4: I mean, get in a traffic situation and look at 544 00:27:04,920 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 4: everybody around you. Almost everybody's got a phone in their hand. 545 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,880 Speaker 4: It's just it's not rare. It's not like one out 546 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,160 Speaker 4: of ten or three out of five, or it's almost everyone. 547 00:27:15,080 --> 00:27:17,560 Speaker 4: And so that's a pretty good argument. I hate the 548 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 4: idea of driving being taken away from humans, but I 549 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 4: don't think I've got an argument for why it shouldn't happen. 550 00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,320 Speaker 1: You know once the technology is there. 551 00:27:27,760 --> 00:27:29,679 Speaker 4: But I'll tell you what, if you can turn that 552 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:32,680 Speaker 4: commute you've got, whether it's twenty minutes or an hour 553 00:27:32,800 --> 00:27:38,600 Speaker 4: twenty like in California, into sleeping, watching a show, going 554 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 4: through emails, I mean, actually getting work done. 555 00:27:41,760 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 1: That's a hell of. 556 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:48,480 Speaker 3: A thing that will revolutionize life in America in a way, 557 00:27:48,520 --> 00:27:53,359 Speaker 3: particularly if the way to you know, give yourself energy 558 00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:56,240 Speaker 3: in the car, your energy source, your fuel changes as 559 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:59,240 Speaker 3: well to one that makes less environmental impact. I mean 560 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 3: that could. I mean I've got an eight hour workday. Yeah, 561 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 3: the first hour and a half of it is in 562 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:09,480 Speaker 3: my car, but I'm fully engaged in work. Yeah, you're 563 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 3: doing zoom. Then I do the stuff that needs to 564 00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:13,359 Speaker 3: be in person, and then I head on back in 565 00:28:13,400 --> 00:28:18,679 Speaker 3: my incredibly comfortable self driving office on the go or whatever. Yeah, 566 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 3: quick cord from our friends at rough Greens. And then 567 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:23,679 Speaker 3: a technology jack that's in most cars that I think 568 00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 3: is a terrible idea and I hope they phase it out. 569 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: The good folks at rough. 570 00:28:27,760 --> 00:28:31,680 Speaker 3: Greens want to support your beloved dog's long term health 571 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:36,600 Speaker 3: by providing live, bioavailable nutrients including essential vitamins, minerals, probiotics, 572 00:28:36,800 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 3: and digestive enzymes and of course omega oils. 573 00:28:40,160 --> 00:28:41,200 Speaker 1: The idea is they. 574 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 3: Work together to improve nutrient absorption, maintain joint and muscle health, 575 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 3: and enhance overall vitality. 576 00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, Katie's actually doing this with her dog.

But it has a 593 00:29:32,840 --> 00:29:35,840 Speaker 3: touchscreen in it, and I think touchscreens are a terrible 594 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 3: idea until self driving comes along. Because number one, it 595 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,400 Speaker 3: can do a lot of different things, which is kind 596 00:29:42,400 --> 00:29:45,920 Speaker 3: of fun. But there's no tactal response. 597 00:29:46,120 --> 00:29:46,880 Speaker 1: To touch screen. 598 00:29:46,880 --> 00:29:50,920 Speaker 3: You have to do more looking, Yeah, much more old 599 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 3: timey controls. You'd glance down and see where they were, 600 00:29:53,800 --> 00:29:54,800 Speaker 3: but then you could feel it. 601 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:56,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, And eventually you had your car for a while, 602 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 4: you could you knew where everything was to adjust things 603 00:29:59,560 --> 00:30:00,040 Speaker 4: without look. 604 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 3: Right right, and often you know the touch screen. Some 605 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 3: of the individual controls are so small it's really easy 606 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 3: to swing and mess and you're staring at your screen, 607 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 3: you're looking down and all them ivery wreck. 608 00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 4: I thought I would have no interest in self driving cars. 609 00:30:13,640 --> 00:30:14,960 Speaker 4: So I think I'm a good test case for this. 610 00:30:15,040 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I was fully why would anybody want that? 611 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:19,640 Speaker 4: One hundred percent when it first came out.
