1 00:00:02,520 --> 00:00:07,040 Speaker 1: Bloomberg Audio Studios, podcasts, radio news. 2 00:00:12,680 --> 00:00:16,880 Speaker 2: Single best idea is to look at equities, bonds, currencies, commodities, 3 00:00:17,600 --> 00:00:21,520 Speaker 2: and anybody informed less informed can look at the Bloomberg 4 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,040 Speaker 2: terminal screen and go there's a lot of blinking going on, 5 00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,920 Speaker 2: and there's something going on. And it can be correlations 6 00:00:28,920 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 2: between equities, bonds, currencies, commodities, it can be actual changes. 7 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:35,080 Speaker 2: Or you can just look at the price of a 8 00:00:35,120 --> 00:00:38,560 Speaker 2: new bracelet at Tiffany and go ooh. Gold's up and 9 00:00:38,760 --> 00:00:42,080 Speaker 2: up is barely describing it. It's surging. There's something out 10 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,479 Speaker 2: there in the last forty eight hours, the cacophony of opinion, 11 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: the cacophony of study of new things like bitcoin down 12 00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:54,720 Speaker 2: two thousand in the morning or gold up two hundred 13 00:00:54,720 --> 00:00:57,720 Speaker 2: dollars and all the foreign exchange in that Audrey Child 14 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,080 Speaker 2: Freeman really helping there is well, it's just you know, 15 00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:06,399 Speaker 2: it's nuts out there. Providing cover today was Brian Weezer. 16 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:10,399 Speaker 2: He is legendary on Wall Street for looking at the 17 00:01:10,440 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 2: ad business and studying TV. He's with Madison and Wall 18 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: Let's listen to Brian Weezer on the moment at hand. 19 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 3: It's evolving. Here's the thing I argue this is a 20 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:23,560 Speaker 3: contrary view for all of AI. There's a lot of 21 00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 3: fears that AI is going to replace a lot of people. 22 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:27,319 Speaker 3: I argue it's going to cause the need for more 23 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 3: people because that's more complexity, and the complexity is what 24 00:01:30,760 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 3: requires people to manage the processes. We already saw this 25 00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:36,160 Speaker 3: in ad tech at Technique, the automation of those core 26 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 3: media buying. It was meant to automate the whole industry. No, 27 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 3: it caused the need for more people, and you're going 28 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:44,119 Speaker 3: to see that in the creative size the agencies. 29 00:01:44,760 --> 00:01:48,040 Speaker 2: I can't emphasize enough how important that comment is, whether 30 00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:50,920 Speaker 2: you agree or disagree with it, or even are removed 31 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: from advertising and media and all that. We don't have 32 00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,600 Speaker 2: a clue what AI is going to do, and there's 33 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 2: somebody who's saying it's going to be a job formation machine. 34 00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:05,160 Speaker 2: We will see. One of my conversations of the year 35 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:09,200 Speaker 2: last year was Nancy Lazar at Piper. She was just 36 00:02:09,360 --> 00:02:14,040 Speaker 2: fabulous about the need to employ America outside of healthcare, 37 00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 2: outside of government. Nancy Lazar again, like Brian on AI. 38 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: This moment, I think they've come to reality that the 39 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,360 Speaker 1: US economy is actually okay. The unaployment rate seems to 40 00:02:25,400 --> 00:02:28,079 Speaker 1: have peaked on the plumbent claims are down. Support for 41 00:02:28,120 --> 00:02:30,120 Speaker 1: the FED has actually gone up. Spurts not the right word, 42 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:32,280 Speaker 1: but I think my confidence of the FAT has actually 43 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,640 Speaker 1: line up that they are seeing. This is what we 44 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 1: think is a reacceleration the economy, supported by their own efforts. 45 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,400 Speaker 1: Rates are down one hundred and seventy five basis points 46 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,519 Speaker 1: nominal GDP minimums five, maybe it's even six seven percent. 47 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: Rates are plenty low. You're getting green shoots. Small businesses 48 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,520 Speaker 1: are benefiting, although it's going to and I think we're 49 00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 1: moving away from a bifurcated economy to something that's healthier. 50 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 2: Went on with a piercing discussion of AI in her 51 00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 2: constructive feel about the multiplier effect of artificial intelligence. It 52 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:06,160 Speaker 2: has been a spirited forty eight hours on podcasts. We're 53 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: on an Apple, we're out on Spotify and of course 54 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 2: on YouTube podcasts. It's single best idea
