Death in nuclear war and ping fascism is. 18 00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:44,559 Speaker 3: Fleeing. 19 00:00:46,360 --> 00:00:49,159 Speaker 2: It's on par I'd say it's likely roughly equivalent. So 20 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:51,640 Speaker 2: in any case, Steven A goes on with John Sire. 21 00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 2: I watched the whole interview. You know, they were growing out, 22 00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:57,440 Speaker 2: they were like bonding over their next tragic result, which 23 00:00:57,560 --> 00:00:59,200 Speaker 2: you know, I have some of that going on in 24 00:00:59,240 --> 00:01:01,640 Speaker 2: my household as well. In any case, the part of 25 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:04,000 Speaker 2: the conversation. People were really interested in though, is Stephen 26 00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 2: a is this like very centristy figure. He also just 27 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:10,200 Speaker 2: like he's not a I know, he's like floated this 28 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 2: idea of running for president, but his political takes a 29 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,760 Speaker 2: pret surface level. He's not like deep in the weeds 30 00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,760 Speaker 2: with this kind of stuff, you know. And John Stewart 31 00:01:17,800 --> 00:01:20,240 Speaker 2: obviously is like deeply in the weeds with this kind 32 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 2: of stuff. So they get into a bit of a 33 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 2: battle over what is the reason why the Democratic Party 34 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 2: with Kamal Harris lost to Trump in this last election cycle. 35 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,040 Speaker 2: Let's go ahead and listen to how that went down. 36 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 4: The left definitely blew it. I thought that I thought 37 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,960 Speaker 4: that the progressive left, the extreme left, really really ruined 38 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 4: the election for the Democrats. And that's that's how I 39 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:41,959 Speaker 4: view this is the truth, and I think that I 40 00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:44,640 Speaker 4: think that because that happened, it positioned him to get 41 00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:46,559 Speaker 4: away with a lot of things. Then you're putting forth 42 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,760 Speaker 4: some of these policies, whether it's transgender issues of other 43 00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 4: stuff that they would bring up. You had a lot 44 00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,920 Speaker 4: of people to say, that's not where our focus should lie. 45 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:57,080 Speaker 5: When don't you think that's their focus focus? 46 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:57,960 Speaker 3: The right? 47 00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 5: I feel like the right is far more focused on 48 00:02:01,280 --> 00:02:04,559 Speaker 5: where you go to the bathroom. They allowed what people 49 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 5: would consider to be a centrist old guard Democrat to 50 00:02:07,800 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 5: run again for president, and then you say, the progressive 51 00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,120 Speaker 5: left wing is the one that didn't. They didn't choose 52 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 5: Joe Biden. They don't have the power in that party. 53 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 5: Chuck Schumer is out there, you know, writing eight strongly 54 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 5: worded questions to Donald Trump about getting The Progressives are 55 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:29,360 Speaker 5: the one going people in this country want medicare for all, 56 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:33,119 Speaker 5: do something. They're the ones that have a principal agenda 57 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 5: that they are going to put forth that all the 58 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 5: Democrats have run from in under the guise of we 59 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 5: have to be moderate and we have to be centrist. 60 00:02:42,040 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 5: But that doesn't appeal to changing the culture and dynamic 61 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:50,320 Speaker 5: of how this government should work by the people, for 62 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 5: the people of the people. 63 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,360 Speaker 4: That's a great argument, and I don't disagree. 64 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 6: What I'm saying to you is that we're done here. 65 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 2: So Johnston then goes on Emily to make a case 66 00:02:59,680 --> 00:03:02,639 Speaker 2: that I think he'll be maybe more sympathetic too than 67 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 2: that one. 68 00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 7: I mean that one. 69 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:08,119 Speaker 2: I totally agree with rights like utterly obsessed with gender 70 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,720 Speaker 2: identity and genitals at this point, but well, we can 71 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 2: pause that debate at. 72 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 7: The moment. 73 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 3: On that people can look it up and fought with. 74 00:03:16,200 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 7: Piers Morgan on this you can oh much better than me. 75 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,120 Speaker 2: But in any case, he goes on and make this 76 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 2: case of like, don't you think the real problem is 77 00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 2: that Democrats didn't actually like deliver or promise to deliver 78 00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: anything real. And so when you've got Bernie Sanders and 79 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 2: AOC and that they're doing this like stop oligarchy to doing, 80 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:38,040 Speaker 2: they're saying like, we're going to help you with your wages, 81 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,000 Speaker 2: We're going to get you held gere, Like, isn't that 82 00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 2: really the problem is that Democrats had no credibility on 83 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: actually addressing people's he didn't put it this way, but 84 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 2: addressing people's material concerns. And Steve and A couldn't really 85 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,800 Speaker 2: couldn't really respond to that. He goes, well, that's a 86 00:03:52,800 --> 00:03:54,600 Speaker 2: good point, and then went on to say, you know, 87 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 2: some other stuff. But you know, I thought John did 88 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 2: an effective job of positioning this because to just frame 89 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 2: it in terms of left right, I think is deeply confusing. 90 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 2: And this gets to this other piece of news that 91 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,640 Speaker 2: just came out, like Josh Holly is now introducing fifteen 92 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 2: dollars minimum wage bill in the Senate. I don't know 93 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 2: if it'll make it to the floor. I'm sure there's 94 00:04:18,320 --> 00:04:21,320 Speaker 2: like literally no other Senate Republicans who would vote for it. 95 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:24,520 Speaker 2: But really getting to the left of some of the 96 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 2: Democrats on an issue that should be a core democratic issue, 97 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: and no one would look at that and be like, oh, 98 00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:34,800 Speaker 2: this is going to cause like Josh Holly to lose, 99 00:04:34,920 --> 00:04:36,919 Speaker 2: or this is going to be bad for Republicans. No, 100 00:04:37,680 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: there is a broad recognition that any of this sort 101 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 2: of more populous pieces that whether it's Josh Holly or 102 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 2: Trump has pushed with the no tax on tips or whatever, 103 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:48,920 Speaker 2: that these are good ideas that are also really popular. 104 00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:53,400 Speaker 2: And so John Stewart's point is basically like Democrats should 105 00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 2: do more of that, and that would be you know, 106 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:01,000 Speaker 2: an effective way of winning people. Oh or if they 107 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 2: actually feel like you have credibility delivering on something real 108 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:05,200 Speaker 2: to them. 109 00:05:05,560 --> 00:05:06,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I mean, I think this is one of 110 00:05:06,839 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 3: the biggest problems but also opportunities for the left. Opportunities 111 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:14,440 Speaker 3: in the sense that Bernie Sanders and Alexandre Acostio Cortez 112 00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 3: on the fighting aligarchy tour have leaned into I think 113 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 3: the opportunities presented by that challenge. So it's actually a 114 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,960 Speaker 3: challenge that I think forces Democrats to confront those questions. 115 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 3: On the other hand, I think part of the problem 116 00:05:27,120 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 3: here is that politically, the left wing of the Democratic 117 00:05:32,400 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 3: Party has the most attractive, appealing, palatable economic agenda. You know, 118 00:05:39,320 --> 00:05:41,359 Speaker 3: a lot of my conservative friends, like Blanche at that 119 00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 3: be like what the hell you're talking about. But it's 120 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 3: actually much easier to sell voters on Medicare for all 121 00:05:47,720 --> 00:05:50,920 Speaker 3: than it is to sell voters on the status quo 122 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,279 Speaker 3: or some tweak to the status Yeah. 123 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:57,560 Speaker 2: Like we're going to negotiate drug prices or medicare on 124 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,440 Speaker 2: like five drugs. It's not a don't you feel like 125 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,679 Speaker 2: your life is transformed by that? I mean it's like, okay, 126 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:05,719 Speaker 2: well that's better, I guess, right. 127 00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 3: But the problem is when the left wing's economic solutions 128 00:06:11,400 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 3: are the most palatable and appealing, then you also have 129 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 3: the people who have signed the ACLU pledges like Kamala 130 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,800 Speaker 3: Harris did. That allowed the Republicans to run that ad 131 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 3: on supporting taxpayer funded I think it was transition surgeries 132 00:06:26,800 --> 00:06:30,919 Speaker 3: for incarcerated migrants the most specific thing possible. But I 133 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 3: think that's where you see Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Cosio 134 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 3: Cortez and Holly is trying to do this from the right, 135 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 3: by the way, because it's also a challenge slash opportunity 136 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 3: for the right where you have the most MAGA people 137 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 3: having economics that are easier to sell, more palatable to 138 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,760 Speaker 3: sell to general election populations, statewide populations, and all of that, 139 00:06:52,279 --> 00:06:55,040 Speaker 3: but they're also the ones that are now super super 140 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 3: tied down to the MAGA brand. If you look at Holly, 141 00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,360 Speaker 3: for example, a lot of people remember Holly because the 142 00:07:00,400 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 3: image of him with the raised fist outside of the 143 00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,160 Speaker 3: capital in the Mourning of January sixth. So it's not 144 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:11,680 Speaker 3: as though any side has like the upper hand politically 145 00:07:11,680 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 3: on the question. It's it's actually something that they're both 146 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 3: confronting in their own ways, which is quite interesting. 147 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 2: I think there's a lot to that because what always 148 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 2: irritates me is, first of all, number one, it is 149 00:07:23,240 --> 00:07:27,240 Speaker 2: one Republicans who bring up transgender issues more regularly than 150 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:29,600 Speaker 2: Democrats because they feel like it's a good issue for them. 151 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:31,400 Speaker 7: There's a. 152 00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 2: Go ahead, try meum, So there's an obsession. 153 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 7: There is an obsession there. I mean, there's no doubt 154 00:07:40,080 --> 00:07:40,520 Speaker 7: about it. 155 00:07:40,600 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 2: But what drives me crazy is I'm like, Okay, so 156 00:07:43,880 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 2: let's accept that, like democratic positioning on the specific issue, 157 00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:51,680 Speaker 2: not even transgender issues in general, the specific issue of 158 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:56,240 Speaker 2: transgender girls in sports, let's accept that democratic positioning on 159 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,800 Speaker 2: that is not in sync with public opinion. Look at 160 00:07:59,840 --> 00:08:05,000 Speaker 2: how many wildly unpopular things that Trump says, does and embraces, 161 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:09,840 Speaker 2: pardoning the violent January six ers, some of whom beat 162 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 2: up cops pulls at about like ten percent, Okay, wildly unpopular, 163 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:17,920 Speaker 2: a bunch of the things that were done at DOJE 164 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:25,840 Speaker 2: wildly unpopular, insane across the board, haphazard tariffs, wildly unpopular. 165 00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:28,640 Speaker 2: So then you ask the question, Okay, so if if 166 00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:31,520 Speaker 2: both sides have and I would say that Trump has 167 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 2: specifically more issues that pull way worse than the overall 168 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,440 Speaker 2: broad like democratic program or what Kamway Harris specifically ran 169 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 2: on where you know she intentionally in her campaign didn't 170 00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:45,839 Speaker 2: talk about a lot of the things that were less popular. 171 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 7: For if Trump has, let's just call it even. 172 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,800 Speaker 2: And they both have unpopular issues that you know that 173 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:56,480 Speaker 2: they support and that they have said things about in 174 00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:58,840 Speaker 2: the past. Why does it matter for one and not 175 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:02,680 Speaker 2: the other? And to me, the reason is number one, 176 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 2: Trump is just a talented figure. Number two, he has 177 00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 2: a story that I think is wrong and bad and 178 00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 2: evil in all of those things, but makes some sense. 179 00:09:11,160 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 2: The reason your life is bad is because of immigrants, 180 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 2: trans people, cultural elites. So if people sort of broadly 181 00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:19,160 Speaker 2: get on board with that narrative, they're willing to forgive 182 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:22,720 Speaker 2: and forget some of the bullshit that is like wildly indefensible. 183 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,720 Speaker 2: Democrats first of all, don't seem like they stand for 184 00:09:25,800 --> 00:09:28,679 Speaker 2: literally anything at all, which is why this whole like 185 00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 2: pull testing. Let me put my finger in the wind, 186 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 2: let me try to reposition on trans issues, let me 187 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 2: like focus test some response on girls in sports that's 188 00:09:37,360 --> 00:09:40,400 Speaker 2: gonna not piss off this person, but is gonna appeal 189 00:09:40,440 --> 00:09:43,600 Speaker 2: to a moderate, etc. People can smell that a mile away. 190 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 2: So if you don't have a coherent story to tell 191 00:09:47,320 --> 00:09:49,800 Speaker 2: and there aren't things that you are demonstrably willing to 192 00:09:49,840 --> 00:09:53,400 Speaker 2: fight for, then yeah, they're going to have a lot 193 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:58,000 Speaker 2: more room to tar you with your least popular positions 194 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:00,880 Speaker 2: and frame them in the way that they want to 195 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:05,960 Speaker 2: frame them. So to me, That's the big difference between 196 00:10:06,720 --> 00:10:11,200 Speaker 2: why the rights, why Trump specifically unpopular issues don't seem 197 00:10:11,280 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 2: to matter as much as Democrats is because Democrats frequently 198 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,360 Speaker 2: don't have a spine, don't stand out for themselves, don't 199 00:10:17,360 --> 00:10:19,480 Speaker 2: have principles they're willing to stand on, aren't willing to 200 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 2: fight for anything, and don't have a coherent story about 201 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 2: what has gone wrong or honesty really about the struggles 202 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,880 Speaker 2: that people are facing. Bernie Sanders is the most popular 203 00:10:28,880 --> 00:10:31,640 Speaker 2: politician in the country right now, most popular politician in 204 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 2: the country. Does he have a different position on trans issues? 205 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 3: Now? 206 00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 7: No, he doesn't. 207 00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: The reason is because he has credibility on fighting for 208 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 2: things that people care about, and he has a story 209 00:10:43,000 --> 00:10:46,079 Speaker 2: that makes sense to people about who is screwing them over, 210 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:49,160 Speaker 2: why things have gone sideways in this country, and how 211 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 2: critically it could be put back on track. 212 00:10:51,640 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 3: Right people believe him speaking of the opportunities created by 213 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 3: all of this. Let's put d three on the screen 214 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:06,600 Speaker 3: and talk about zomentum so zoron momdani his Actually he's 215 00:11:06,600 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 3: now trailing according to this new pole Andrew Cuomo in 216 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:13,000 Speaker 3: a one to one race. So keep that in mind. 217 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:18,400 Speaker 3: He's now trailing Cuomo by only two points. My suspicion 218 00:11:18,559 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 3: is that that's at least pretty close to the margin 219 00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 3: of error. I'll have to go look at the pole here. 220 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 3: But that was also conducted before the Alexandria Occassio Cortes 221 00:11:28,600 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 3: endorsement of Zoron, Mom, Donnie, and we can put D 222 00:11:31,679 --> 00:11:33,439 Speaker 3: four on the screen as well. 223 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,319 Speaker 7: Dan before the debate, which went well for Zoron. 224 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and went very poorly for Cuomo. So big 225 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 3: thing for Zoron here across the board. The places where 226 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 3: he lower net favorabilities are just the places where fewer 227 00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,839 Speaker 3: voters know about him to have an opinion. No demo 228 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 3: has particularly high unfavorables for him overall. And then another post, 229 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 3: a tale of two candidates. Zoron plus forty three net 230 00:11:54,120 --> 00:11:58,160 Speaker 3: favorability twenty eight percent haven't heard enough, Cuomo minus one 231 00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:02,199 Speaker 3: net favorability, three percent haven't heard enough, So. 232 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:04,319 Speaker 7: Crystal room to grow for Zoran. 233 00:12:04,520 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 3: Well, also, you heard it here first, truly, you heard 234 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:12,280 Speaker 3: it here first. Zomentum is absolutely realm is absolutely real. 235 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:14,360 Speaker 7: Yeah, no, there's no doubt about it. 236 00:12:14,400 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: I mean, listen, I want to be fair and say 237 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:20,679 Speaker 2: there are other poles out Salem's rejoined the chat. There 238 00:12:20,679 --> 00:12:22,920 Speaker 2: are other poles out that show a larger gap in 239 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:28,440 Speaker 2: favor of Cuomo. This particular polling outfit, though, was extremely 240 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 2: accurate in the Eric Adams mayor race. It's not a 241 00:12:32,520 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 2: crazy poll right, No, they do have a track record. 242 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 2: I don't think anyone denies that Zoron has significant momentum 243 00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:43,240 Speaker 2: right now. And this poll coming before the debate before 244 00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:48,040 Speaker 2: AOC endorses, is significant because interestingly, in terms of the 245 00:12:48,120 --> 00:12:52,720 Speaker 2: gender divide, Zoran is actually doing better with men. So Democrats, 246 00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:55,680 Speaker 2: if you're looking for a candidate who can appeal to men, 247 00:12:55,960 --> 00:13:00,000 Speaker 2: and specifically actually white men, there's something to learn from 248 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:03,680 Speaker 2: Zoron's candiacy because he's doing really well with young white 249 00:13:03,720 --> 00:13:07,840 Speaker 2: men are probably his, I'm quite confident are his best demographic. 250 00:13:08,280 --> 00:13:11,000 Speaker 2: So he's got some answers for you in this whole 251 00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:16,040 Speaker 2: man conversation. But you know, the point about the groups 252 00:13:16,080 --> 00:13:19,560 Speaker 2: where he's faring the poorest are also the ones that 253 00:13:19,720 --> 00:13:22,280 Speaker 2: know the least about him, I think is a really 254 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:25,240 Speaker 2: important one and may help to explain some of why 255 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:30,280 Speaker 2: women are voting more for Cuomo than Zoran at this point, 256 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:34,800 Speaker 2: which disturbing and really a little bit head scratching, but 257 00:13:35,600 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 2: women also knew less about Zoran at this point, so 258 00:13:38,440 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 2: there may be rooms to grow there. You know, he 259 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:44,160 Speaker 2: still has some of the demographic challenges that have plagued 260 00:13:44,200 --> 00:13:47,080 Speaker 2: the left. I think, you know, older black voters are 261 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 2: the weakest demographic for him. Makes sense because you have 262 00:13:51,480 --> 00:13:55,160 Speaker 2: a larger number of conservatives who you know, older black 263 00:13:55,240 --> 00:13:57,960 Speaker 2: voters tend to as a group be more conservative than 264 00:13:58,000 --> 00:14:00,880 Speaker 2: some of the other parts of the Democratic He's he's 265 00:14:00,920 --> 00:14:04,760 Speaker 2: doing pretty well with Latinos though, so he's gained a 266 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 2: lot of ground there, and you know, we'll see they're 267 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 2: hitting him quite hard. They're really trying to go after 268 00:14:10,720 --> 00:14:14,160 Speaker 2: him in all sorts of ways, and it's it's going 269 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 2: to be continue to be a difficult hill to climb. 270 00:14:17,040 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 2: But I think if you're looking at who has room 271 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 2: to grow, obviously he is way more favorable, way higher 272 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,920 Speaker 2: favorability than Cuomo. I think he's you know, he's really 273 00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:30,560 Speaker 2: got a shot in this thing, which is pretty wild 274 00:14:30,640 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 2: and pretty extraordinary commentary on the way that the Democratic 275 00:14:33,320 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 2: base has moved in Trump two point zero as well. 276 00:14:35,640 --> 00:14:39,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, that favorability gap is insane and it'll be really 277 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,440 Speaker 3: sad if New Yorkers are stuck with Andrew Cuomo because 278 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:45,040 Speaker 3: I don't think anybody wants that. Even people who are 279 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 3: saying they're maybe favorable to Andrew Cuomo are probably favorable 280 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 3: to him in the respect that they don't like the 281 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 3: other candidates, and they're like, Okay, he's fine, I know him, 282 00:14:54,600 --> 00:14:57,120 Speaker 3: but really, nobody wants Andrew Cuomo to be the mayor 283 00:14:57,240 --> 00:14:59,120 Speaker 3: of New York City. I mean, maybe like five people 284 00:14:59,160 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 3: want Andrew Cuomo to the mayor of New York City. 285 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 3: They're all named Cuomo. So if voters are stuck, maybe 286 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:11,400 Speaker 3: they're uncomfortable with Zoron's full democratic socialist platform. And honestly, 287 00:15:11,400 --> 00:15:16,400 Speaker 3: that's fully understandable, especially after the city was mismanaged under 288 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:18,600 Speaker 3: build the Blasio Like, I get it, I get it. 289 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 3: So if you're forced to choose between Andrew Cuomo and 290 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:26,240 Speaker 3: somebody who's, by his own admission, on the left flank, 291 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:31,040 Speaker 3: that just sucks for voters. So if it ends up Cuomo, 292 00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 3: I mean, good luck. Everyone, Like, that's just I'm sorry 293 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 3: that those are your those are your choices. 294 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:40,680 Speaker 2: Let me let me say something about the way Zorn's 295 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:44,080 Speaker 2: run his campaign though, too. Yeah, because to the you 296 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,320 Speaker 2: know circles back to the like John Stair Stephen A 297 00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:49,920 Speaker 2: Smith to tion and positioning. So Zoron has you know, 298 00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: all the lefty positions, no doubt about it. His tagline 299 00:15:53,600 --> 00:15:56,960 Speaker 2: is Zoron for New York you can afford. And every 300 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:00,680 Speaker 2: time we've played as clips, you guys talk to him, 301 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 2: like every time you talk to him, you know what 302 00:16:03,400 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 2: his policy platform is. Freeze the rent, you know, government 303 00:16:07,800 --> 00:16:10,760 Speaker 2: owned grocery stores to compete so that you can, you know, 304 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 2: in food desert, so that you have some fresh fruit 305 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 2: food options. He is laser focused on housing in particular, 306 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 2: free bussing, you know, so that people can ride public transit, 307 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,720 Speaker 2: and additional investments in public transit. People know what his 308 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,320 Speaker 2: platform is, they know what he stands for. It's really clear. 309 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 2: He has a very clear message, very clear story about 310 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:34,200 Speaker 2: what has gone wrong in New York, the way it's 311 00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:39,160 Speaker 2: become an intentionally a luxury good under mayors like Bloomberg 312 00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:44,240 Speaker 2: and Juliani and Eric Adams. And he wants to make 313 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 2: it so that you can live in New York and 314 00:16:46,400 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 2: it doesn't have to be such a struggle. Now, will 315 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:51,280 Speaker 2: one person be able to accomplish that in one term? No, 316 00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:55,240 Speaker 2: But he's put forward some achievable. I think concrete goals 317 00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 2: that people can really wrap their heads around. And that's 318 00:16:57,760 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 2: why his campaign has taken And it's not just against Cuomo, 319 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:05,639 Speaker 2: Like there are a bunch of long time established New 320 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:08,840 Speaker 2: York City palls in this race who were getting no traction. 321 00:17:09,359 --> 00:17:12,080 Speaker 2: He has sucked up all of the oxygen, all of 322 00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:16,480 Speaker 2: the like not Cuomo oxygen. And it's a real testament 323 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 2: to the strength of his very straightforward proposition and his 324 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:26,520 Speaker 2: direct pitch to people's materials concerns and his story about 325 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 2: you know, how how we got. 326 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:29,120 Speaker 7: Here and what went wrong as well. 327 00:17:29,240 --> 00:17:31,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you know the white the white bros, the 328 00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 2: young men, Emily, they're eating it up again. Lessons to 329 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 2: be learned here. 330 00:17:36,880 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's how aoc one and it's not like esoteric 331 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:42,760 Speaker 3: DSA naval gazing. It's yeah, a huge lesson I think 332 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,199 Speaker 3: for for National Democrats. So Crystal, should we move on 333 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 3: to updates in the case of Gretit Sunberg. 334 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:49,399 Speaker 7: Yeah, let's do that. 335 00:17:52,480 --> 00:17:57,000 Speaker 2: We've been covering the Gaza Aid Freedom flotilla, which was 336 00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 2: intercepted in international waters illegally by Israel. The members of 337 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 2: that vessel were, including Greta Tunberg, were arrested, in President 338 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:10,359 Speaker 2: Trump's words and mine as well, kidnapped by Israel, taken 339 00:18:10,400 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 2: to an Israeli prison, and then they, in order to 340 00:18:14,640 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 2: effectuate their release, were made to sign these forms that 341 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 2: would consent to their deportation but also would confess to 342 00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:28,920 Speaker 2: basically illegally entering Israel, which is not what happened whatsoever. 343 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:32,440 Speaker 2: So some of the activists have refused to sign those forms. 344 00:18:32,920 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 2: Greta did sign the form and has been released. She 345 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:38,240 Speaker 2: was flown back to Sweden. Reporters spoke to her there 346 00:18:38,359 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 2: about the ordeal and why she did what she did. 347 00:18:40,840 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 2: Let's go ahead and take a listen to a little 348 00:18:42,359 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: bit of what she had to say. 349 00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 3: Berg is speaking to reporters. Let's take a listen to 350 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:46,480 Speaker 3: what she has to say. 351 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:54,000 Speaker 8: Yeah, on international waters, we were illegally attacked and kidnapped 352 00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:57,359 Speaker 8: by Israel and the taken against our will to Israel, 353 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:01,160 Speaker 8: where we were detained and then some of us deported. 354 00:19:01,280 --> 00:19:02,160 Speaker 3: Some are still there. 355 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 4: Uh, there are very. 356 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:10,439 Speaker 8: Big uncertainties because it was quite chaotic and uncertainly, so 357 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:13,120 Speaker 8: I don't really know what's going on. I haven't had 358 00:19:13,119 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 8: a phone for many days, and I the last few 359 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:20,840 Speaker 8: hours they were absolutely nothing compared to what what people 360 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:24,959 Speaker 8: are going through in Palestine, especially Gaza right now, and 361 00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 8: it is this is yet another international a violation of 362 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,680 Speaker 8: international rights, adding to the list of countless of such 363 00:19:34,800 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 8: especially towards Palestinian that Israel are committing by blocking and 364 00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:43,639 Speaker 8: preventing humanitarian aid from entering Gaza. 365 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:48,760 Speaker 3: That is a that is illegal. 366 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 8: Sandwiches. Yeah, they probably have posted lots of pr stunt videos. 367 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 8: As I said, I have not seen anything, but they 368 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 8: did an illegal act by kidnapping us on international waters 369 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:04,479 Speaker 8: and against our will, bringing us to Israel, keeping us 370 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:06,480 Speaker 8: in the bottom of the boat, not letting us getting 371 00:20:06,480 --> 00:20:09,120 Speaker 8: out and so on. But that is not the real 372 00:20:09,160 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 8: story here. 373 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:10,480 Speaker 3: The real story is. 374 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:13,720 Speaker 8: That there's a genocide going on in Gaza and a 375 00:20:13,760 --> 00:20:18,359 Speaker 8: systematic starvation following the seas and blockade now which is 376 00:20:19,200 --> 00:20:23,240 Speaker 8: leading to food, medicine, water that are desperately needed to 377 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,240 Speaker 8: get into Gaza is prevented from doing so. But of 378 00:20:26,280 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 8: course there are many attempts like this mission, both by 379 00:20:30,560 --> 00:20:34,240 Speaker 8: seeing and land to break that siege and open up 380 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:37,359 Speaker 8: a humanitarian corridor. And this was a mission of attempting 381 00:20:37,400 --> 00:20:42,800 Speaker 8: to once again bring aid to Gaza, which is desperately needed, 382 00:20:43,400 --> 00:20:47,399 Speaker 8: but also to send solidarity and say that we see you, 383 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:52,199 Speaker 8: we see what is happening, and we cannot accept just 384 00:20:52,560 --> 00:20:54,800 Speaker 8: see witnessing all this and doing nothing. 385 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:56,480 Speaker 3: That can never be an option. 386 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:01,800 Speaker 2: She also spoke more about how these horrors in Gaza 387 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 2: have been allowed to persis. Let's go ahead and take 388 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 2: a listen to her reaction there. 389 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:10,480 Speaker 9: Why do you think so many countries governments around the 390 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:15,200 Speaker 9: world are just ignoring what is happening in Gaza because 391 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:16,840 Speaker 9: of racism, That's the simple answer. 392 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:23,120 Speaker 8: I would say, racism and basically desperately trying to defend 393 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:27,600 Speaker 8: a destructive, deadly system that systematically puts a short term 394 00:21:27,600 --> 00:21:28,680 Speaker 8: economic profit. 395 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 9: And to maximize due political power over the well being 396 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:34,080 Speaker 9: of humans and the planet. 397 00:21:35,240 --> 00:21:36,200 Speaker 3: And right now. 398 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:40,160 Speaker 9: It's very, very difficult to mortally defend that. It is impossible, 399 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:45,399 Speaker 9: but still they are desperately trying, which is absurd is 400 00:21:45,440 --> 00:21:47,840 Speaker 9: not the word, but in words to describe it. 401 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 2: And Emily, I'm curious for your reaction to this. You know, 402 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 2: there's a lot I think that she said there that 403 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,920 Speaker 2: is interesting, but in particular I want to highlight that 404 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,879 Speaker 2: she mentions this isn't part of just one effort, and 405 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 2: in fact, the organization that she's involved with. We spoke 406 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 2: with the the spokesperson for the Freedom Flotilla group. They 407 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:12,440 Speaker 2: plan to attempt this many more times, and there are 408 00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 2: two separate additional efforts that they're in coordination with to 409 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:19,680 Speaker 2: also try to break the siege. So there's been a 410 00:22:19,720 --> 00:22:21,919 Speaker 2: lot of discussion about Greta in particular. What do you 411 00:22:22,280 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 2: make of of what's gone down here? 412 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:28,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean I don't have a like super I 413 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,679 Speaker 3: think it kind of went exactly as I expected that 414 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:35,359 Speaker 3: it would, and you know, it's better actually than it 415 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:39,400 Speaker 3: could have gone. It's a little interesting. 416 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:39,920 Speaker 6: Was low. 417 00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:44,000 Speaker 3: The bar was really low. Bar was really low, and 418 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,680 Speaker 3: you know, the it's interesting that people still over there. 419 00:22:48,440 --> 00:22:53,600 Speaker 3: I also think, hey, this is an example of people 420 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:57,560 Speaker 3: putting their money where their mouth is and actually doing 421 00:22:57,560 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 3: the thing, walking the walk. So you know, even if 422 00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 3: I disagree with her, I'm not mad about it. 423 00:23:03,040 --> 00:23:06,480 Speaker 7: To be honest, it was genuinely courageous. I mean, that's 424 00:23:06,600 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 7: to me. 425 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 2: And the other thing is, look, she is a high 426 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:14,600 Speaker 2: profile person. People paid much more attention to this effort 427 00:23:14,800 --> 00:23:18,280 Speaker 2: because she was on board. I think Israel's reaction, which 428 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 2: I don't want to underplay, I mean, it was illegal, 429 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,280 Speaker 2: like they acted as pirates kidnapping even like I said 430 00:23:23,320 --> 00:23:26,960 Speaker 2: before Trump called it, so they kidnapped her, right, but 431 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 2: they didn't kill her, which they've done before with you know, 432 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,880 Speaker 2: humanitarian activists previously back in twenty ten. And in fact, 433 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,760 Speaker 2: the spokesperson we talked to was on board that ship 434 00:23:37,800 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 2: that they attacked and killed ten people who were on board, 435 00:23:40,440 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 2: So they didn't do that. And you know, I think 436 00:23:43,040 --> 00:23:46,320 Speaker 2: that level of quote unquote restraint also is partly attributable 437 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 2: to the fact that they realized, like, shit, we can't 438 00:23:48,040 --> 00:23:50,720 Speaker 2: kill Greta Tunberg, like this is gonna there's gonna be 439 00:23:50,760 --> 00:23:53,800 Speaker 2: a lot of international attention to that. So I think 440 00:23:53,840 --> 00:23:57,360 Speaker 2: she very effectively used the large platform that she has 441 00:23:57,960 --> 00:24:02,119 Speaker 2: undertook an action that was genuinely courageous, that entailed genuine 442 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:06,240 Speaker 2: personal discomfort and extreme risk in order to try to 443 00:24:06,359 --> 00:24:10,359 Speaker 2: do something. And so you know, if you have I 444 00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:13,480 Speaker 2: saw Omar Botder front of the show tweeting like if 445 00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:16,400 Speaker 2: you had one thousand people who did the same thing 446 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 2: and also sent ships trying to break the siege, it 447 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:23,359 Speaker 2: would become you know, intercepting all of those people and 448 00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:27,440 Speaker 2: trying to hold on to this blockade preventing starving people 449 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 2: from getting food like that would become unsustainable with even 450 00:24:31,280 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 2: you know, a comparatively small level of organization that Greta 451 00:24:36,440 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 2: has you know, made much more likely and much more 452 00:24:38,760 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 2: possible here. So I think what she did was extraordinary. 453 00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:45,200 Speaker 2: I think I don't know, I don't really understand why 454 00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,080 Speaker 2: the right really fixates on her and really hates her 455 00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 2: in the way that they do. But I think she's 456 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,320 Speaker 2: also proved a lot of the haters wrong who felt 457 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,200 Speaker 2: like she had this sort of like corporate friendly level 458 00:24:55,320 --> 00:25:01,040 Speaker 2: of you know, approved activism. This was certainly not in 459 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:04,880 Speaker 2: that vein both because of the danger of the action 460 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 2: and also because there is nothing corporate approved about standing 461 00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:11,160 Speaker 2: up for Palestinian rights. 462 00:25:11,359 --> 00:25:13,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, I think she had like a youthful 463 00:25:13,400 --> 00:25:16,639 Speaker 3: naivete that was easy to make fun of. On the 464 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 3: climate issue, I genuinely feel badly for anybody who gets 465 00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:23,359 Speaker 3: famous as a child, whether it was their choice, their parents' choice, 466 00:25:23,480 --> 00:25:27,920 Speaker 3: or nobody's choice. So I feel like she's growing up 467 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:31,719 Speaker 3: in front of cameras and panopticon and that just sucks. 468 00:25:32,280 --> 00:25:36,840 Speaker 3: But much more this is a this is a version 469 00:25:37,160 --> 00:25:40,320 Speaker 3: of Greta Tunberg that has definitely grown up compared to them. 470 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:43,399 Speaker 3: There's there's no question about it. Big w Forgreta on 471 00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,000 Speaker 3: this one, not for Bebe. 472 00:25:45,640 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I would say, so, let's go and put this 473 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:50,280 Speaker 2: image up on the screen. This is the latest video 474 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:52,639 Speaker 2: of a quote unquote AID and the way that this 475 00:25:52,760 --> 00:25:55,439 Speaker 2: operation looks, I know drop site is reporting that you 476 00:25:55,520 --> 00:26:00,159 Speaker 2: had another massacre in the context of Hungary Palace to 477 00:26:00,200 --> 00:26:06,080 Speaker 2: means attempting to obtain AID from this Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. 478 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 2: You know, hundreds of people now who have been killed 479 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:14,280 Speaker 2: because of this setup of this aid effectively trap at 480 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 2: this point, and at the same time, we also have 481 00:26:18,080 --> 00:26:21,880 Speaker 2: the ambassador to Israel, Mike Kakabee, who is kat Oh 482 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 2: my god. 483 00:26:23,080 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 3: The ambassador at a breaking points. 484 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:30,440 Speaker 2: Salem, Salem, Yes, Mike Kakabee significantly changing US policy and 485 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 2: just I mean making it plain now we don't we 486 00:26:32,920 --> 00:26:35,600 Speaker 2: don't support the previous contours of any idea of a 487 00:26:35,600 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 2: two state solution. 488 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 7: Let's go ahead and take a listen to that. 489 00:26:37,960 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 10: I think the question is what does that Palestinian state 490 00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:43,239 Speaker 10: look like? Okay, where is it? Where is it going 491 00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:45,440 Speaker 10: to be? Well, what does it have to be in 492 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,040 Speaker 10: Judae and Samaria? Does it need to be somewhere different. 493 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,439 Speaker 10: Does it need to be an opportunity for people to 494 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:55,560 Speaker 10: have a true place that is completely their own, or 495 00:26:55,600 --> 00:26:58,959 Speaker 10: is it going to be in the existing areas that 496 00:26:59,000 --> 00:27:02,160 Speaker 10: are currently under the dominion of the PA. So there's 497 00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:03,920 Speaker 10: a lot of questions. That's why I'm saying I don't 498 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,959 Speaker 10: believe anybody can say it's impossible, it will never happen. 499 00:27:07,800 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 10: But if someone wants to declare that this is the 500 00:27:10,520 --> 00:27:13,560 Speaker 10: exact strip of geography that is going to be the 501 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:16,800 Speaker 10: future Palestinian state, that's where the complication comes from. 502 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 3: Well, maybe the word is exact, that's the problem. 503 00:27:19,320 --> 00:27:23,320 Speaker 5: Are you suggesting that somewhere other than mandatory Palestine area, 504 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:25,720 Speaker 5: that it could be in Saudi Arabia or something. 505 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 10: I'm just saying that I think every option should be 506 00:27:28,600 --> 00:27:29,800 Speaker 10: and could be on the table. 507 00:27:30,320 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 2: Wow, what did you Yeah, what did you make of that? 508 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,439 Speaker 2: Emily So he's designed but not in Palestine. 509 00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,719 Speaker 3: Well yeah, but he's also like being clever and winking 510 00:27:38,760 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 3: and nodding and saying, basically, Palestine is impossible because none 511 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,720 Speaker 3: of that land belongs to Palestine from his perspective, and. 512 00:27:46,840 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 7: It stands the area. 513 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:52,680 Speaker 3: Yeah. It reminds me of when the Biden administration. Joe 514 00:27:52,680 --> 00:27:56,120 Speaker 3: Biden is mister two state solution is funding a war 515 00:27:57,200 --> 00:28:00,520 Speaker 3: for Netsan, Yaho, who is explicitly against the idea of 516 00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:03,280 Speaker 3: a two state solution. Here you have Mike Kuckabee actually 517 00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 3: saying something very different than the president himself. And Trump 518 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:08,919 Speaker 3: is hard to pin down on this issue obviously, like 519 00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:13,119 Speaker 3: is his Mara Gaza idea technically under the umbrella of 520 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 3: a Palestinian state as Propalestine activists would define it. No, 521 00:28:18,240 --> 00:28:21,840 Speaker 3: absolutely not. But he also would not be comfortable with 522 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:27,680 Speaker 3: just saying, hey, screw it, give it all to Israel 523 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 3: because he has all of these relationships with other Arab 524 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:34,320 Speaker 3: states that he thinks are important and contingent upon finding 525 00:28:34,320 --> 00:28:36,879 Speaker 3: a fair solution or a solution that they see is 526 00:28:36,920 --> 00:28:41,000 Speaker 3: fair for the people of Palestine. So Mike Cockabe in 527 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:44,640 Speaker 3: that clip, it's not at all surprising. He's saying exactly 528 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:52,280 Speaker 3: what you know, people from the dispensationalist evangelical movement believe 529 00:28:52,520 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 3: about that land, and it happens to be what a 530 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 3: lot of Israelis believe about that land. But it's not 531 00:28:59,760 --> 00:29:04,040 Speaker 3: what the quote unquote America First movement believes about that 532 00:29:03,440 --> 00:29:05,080 Speaker 3: that believes about the solution. 533 00:29:05,640 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean it is quite consistent with Trump's 534 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,800 Speaker 2: like We're going to ethnically cleanse Gaza and push them 535 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 2: somewhere else. Like it certainly fits with that. And we 536 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 2: know there have been discussions that have been ongoing with 537 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 2: a variety of different countries to try to push them 538 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:27,960 Speaker 2: to accept these Palestinian refugees that Trump wants to create. 539 00:29:28,520 --> 00:29:30,440 Speaker 2: And so you know, I think it's I think it's 540 00:29:30,480 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 2: part and parcel with that. 541 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:32,240 Speaker 3: You know. 542 00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,000 Speaker 2: The easy thing to say here is like, okay, well, 543 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 2: if you've made it impossible to have a two state 544 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 2: solution with the ongoing settlement, illegal settlement project, which all 545 00:29:42,160 --> 00:29:44,480 Speaker 2: Israeli prime ministers have engaged in, by the way, but 546 00:29:44,520 --> 00:29:47,880 Speaker 2: have really ramped up in recent years under net Yahoo 547 00:29:47,880 --> 00:29:52,440 Speaker 2: and specifically post October seven, if you've made that impossible, okay, 548 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,440 Speaker 2: then how about everybody gets equal rights? 549 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:56,520 Speaker 7: How about that? 550 00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 2: How about you just live up to your rhetoric about 551 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 2: how you know, you don't discriminate in your democracy and 552 00:30:03,200 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 2: making an actual democracy where everybody's actually treated equally. Because 553 00:30:08,440 --> 00:30:11,440 Speaker 2: if a two state solution is not going to be possible, 554 00:30:11,560 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 2: and you're putting that off the table and you're doing 555 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 2: everything you can which is a stated goal of Nan 556 00:30:16,120 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 2: Yahoo to make it. So that's impossible. Well, that's the 557 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,200 Speaker 2: other solution that's available to you. 558 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 3: But in a sense, I don't think he's being honest 559 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 3: about it. In a sense, it's the like sadly realistic 560 00:30:28,560 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 3: situation on the ground is that that area in I mean, 561 00:30:33,520 --> 00:30:37,960 Speaker 3: he's in Jerusalem right there, but you know, the Temple mount, 562 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 3: I mean the Al Aksa, Like nobody wants that to 563 00:30:42,680 --> 00:30:46,760 Speaker 3: be given to the other side, is least of all 564 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:53,320 Speaker 3: people who are of the like dispensationalist ideology as people 565 00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 3: like Mike Huckabee. Are you know that's so? 566 00:30:57,360 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 4: Yeah? 567 00:30:57,640 --> 00:30:59,440 Speaker 3: I mean is it impossible? 568 00:30:59,680 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 5: Sure? 569 00:31:00,040 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 3: Or should it be impossible? No? And I think that's 570 00:31:03,440 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 3: where the just depressing reality sets in. 571 00:31:07,480 --> 00:31:07,800 Speaker 7: Yeah. 572 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 2: Indeed, we've got a great guest standing by to talk 573 00:31:11,680 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 2: about some extraordinary developments with regard to AI, So let's 574 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 2: go ahead and get to that. There have been a 575 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:23,360 Speaker 2: bunch of very significant developments with regard to AI development 576 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 2: that we did not want to lose sight of this week. 577 00:31:25,160 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 2: So really excited to be joined this morning by tarn 578 00:31:27,640 --> 00:31:31,640 Speaker 2: Steinbreckner Kaufman. She's the CEO of the Golden Gate Institute, 579 00:31:31,720 --> 00:31:33,960 Speaker 2: for AI On. She's going to take us through some 580 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 2: of these developments. Taran is great to have you, great 581 00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 2: to meet you. 582 00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:38,600 Speaker 6: Thanks so much. It's lovely to be here. 583 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 2: So, first of all, in the wake of the protests, 584 00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 2: which at times turned violent in La, there has been 585 00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 2: an effort to spread all kinds of propaganda, as is 586 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,800 Speaker 2: quite typical in these news cycles these days, but added 587 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 2: to the mix now we have these just outright AI 588 00:31:57,520 --> 00:32:01,320 Speaker 2: generated scenes, which this one in particular, I'm about to show. 589 00:32:01,400 --> 00:32:03,480 Speaker 2: It's kind of crazy to me that some people even 590 00:32:03,520 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 2: thought this was real, because it takes a very surreal 591 00:32:06,840 --> 00:32:10,240 Speaker 2: turn quite quickly, but some people did just watch a 592 00:32:10,280 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 2: piece of it and actually think that it was real. So, 593 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:18,160 Speaker 2: you know, that's putting aside more sort of sophisticated efforts 594 00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:22,160 Speaker 2: to create these images and shape people's understanding of events 595 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:24,480 Speaker 2: that are happening in this country. So let's go ahead 596 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 2: and take a look at this one video in particular 597 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 2: AI generated that went viral. 598 00:32:29,240 --> 00:32:33,120 Speaker 6: Why are you rioting? I don't know. 599 00:32:33,160 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 3: I was paid to be here and I just want 600 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 3: to destroy stuff? Is what you are doing illegal? 601 00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 7: Well, these are peaceful protests. Even that guy over there 602 00:32:42,720 --> 00:32:48,560 Speaker 7: says so and so Taren. 603 00:32:48,600 --> 00:32:51,400 Speaker 2: This really speaks to one of the concerns people have 604 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 2: with regard to AI development, which is just how difficult 605 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:59,280 Speaker 2: it makes it to sort through what even is reality. 606 00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,680 Speaker 11: Yeah, this is really important issue. Uh, these are going 607 00:33:04,720 --> 00:33:05,880 Speaker 11: to get One thing to know is that these are 608 00:33:05,880 --> 00:33:07,280 Speaker 11: going to get much more realistic. 609 00:33:07,600 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 6: Like these are. 610 00:33:08,960 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 11: You know, if you're a discerning eye and you sort 611 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 11: of know what you're looking for, it's pretty obvious that 612 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 11: this is AI generated. Still it kind of has like 613 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:18,600 Speaker 11: a sheene, it doesn't quite kind of look exactly photo realistic. 614 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,560 Speaker 11: And they've gotten much more realistic in the last year, 615 00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:23,480 Speaker 11: and they're going to keep getting much more realistic. I 616 00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:25,840 Speaker 11: would assume that a year from now I won't be 617 00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 11: able to tell easily whether something like that is real 618 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:35,240 Speaker 11: or not based on the actual images and audio. The 619 00:33:35,320 --> 00:33:37,000 Speaker 11: second thing, you know is this is a really hard 620 00:33:37,040 --> 00:33:40,240 Speaker 11: problem to solve. I've heard, you know, lots of solutions 621 00:33:40,240 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 11: floating around, like we should you know, require AI generated 622 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 11: video to have a water mark, or we should you know, 623 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 11: It's just really hard. It's not really clear how any 624 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 11: policy solution at scale could work to to you know, 625 00:33:56,240 --> 00:34:00,360 Speaker 11: to stop bad actors from making videos and circular them 626 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,800 Speaker 11: that are not real. And the third thing which you 627 00:34:03,880 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 11: pointed to, I think is this is sort of what 628 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:09,560 Speaker 11: I call the truth fog, which is it goes beyond 629 00:34:09,600 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 11: the effect of the actual negative videos, the false videos, 630 00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:16,799 Speaker 11: which is to say that like now, I can't you know, 631 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,440 Speaker 11: in a year, I don't think I'm going to be 632 00:34:18,440 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 11: able to tell whether a video is real, which is 633 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:25,439 Speaker 11: going to make me discredit true videos evidence as well. Right, 634 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:28,080 Speaker 11: And that's a problem too, because anything, you know, I'll 635 00:34:28,080 --> 00:34:30,080 Speaker 11: be able to share. If I share a video of 636 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 11: you know, a candidate for president saying something and I'm like, 637 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 11: you should vote for them because they said this, people 638 00:34:34,840 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 11: are going to be like, how do I know they 639 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:37,279 Speaker 11: actually said that? 640 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 6: Right? 641 00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,959 Speaker 2: And we are I think Emily already seeing some of that. 642 00:34:42,080 --> 00:34:45,200 Speaker 2: I know there was an incident with regard to a 643 00:34:45,239 --> 00:34:49,920 Speaker 2: doctor in Gaza whose kids were killed by the Israelis, 644 00:34:50,520 --> 00:34:54,479 Speaker 2: and there was you know, video of the aftermath, the 645 00:34:54,600 --> 00:34:57,160 Speaker 2: horrific aftermath of that, and there are all these claims 646 00:34:57,160 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 2: that the videos weren't real, that these were just AI generated. 647 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:02,080 Speaker 2: I think we're already seeing some of that fall out 648 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 2: that Tarren's talking about. 649 00:35:03,120 --> 00:35:04,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a good point. I mean, it just becomes 650 00:35:04,680 --> 00:35:07,520 Speaker 3: harder to trust anything at all. I wanted to ask 651 00:35:07,600 --> 00:35:10,120 Speaker 3: about this news both from The New York Times in 652 00:35:10,160 --> 00:35:15,640 Speaker 3: Bloomberg that Mark Zuckerberg is announcing a nine figure by 653 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:19,840 Speaker 3: to bring top talent on for quote unquote super intelligence. 654 00:35:20,520 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 3: You know that that year timescale. I'm glad you mentioned 655 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,239 Speaker 3: it because it was one of the things I asked 656 00:35:24,239 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 3: about you. At what point are we going to have 657 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 3: a situation where even experts have to exert a huge 658 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:32,399 Speaker 3: amount of effort to tell what's real and what's fake 659 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:35,160 Speaker 3: on social media and even then maybe have a hard 660 00:35:35,239 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 3: time doing it. What does super intelligence mean as defined 661 00:35:39,520 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 3: by Mark Zuckerberg and the industry, and is this, you know, 662 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 3: hurdling us even more quickly along in that timeline. 663 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,240 Speaker 11: Everybody has their own term. There's super intelligence, there's advanced 664 00:35:56,239 --> 00:36:00,719 Speaker 11: general or artificial general intelligence, agi there's a There's all 665 00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,919 Speaker 11: these terms floating around, and a lot of people don't 666 00:36:02,920 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 11: define what they mean by them. So I don't know 667 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 11: exactly what Mark Zuckerberg means. Like when I think about this, 668 00:36:10,920 --> 00:36:14,560 Speaker 11: what I'm thinking about is an artificial intelligence that can 669 00:36:14,640 --> 00:36:17,640 Speaker 11: do most or almost all of the things that humans 670 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:18,680 Speaker 11: can do on a computer. 671 00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 6: And that includes there for many many jobs. 672 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:26,399 Speaker 11: There are many many jobs that people can do from 673 00:36:26,440 --> 00:36:29,560 Speaker 11: their computer, and when we have an artificial intelligence that 674 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,000 Speaker 11: can do all of those tasks remotely, that's obviously going 675 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:34,880 Speaker 11: to have very huge economic impacts. It's going to have 676 00:36:34,880 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 11: a lot of other impacts on society as well. So 677 00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,600 Speaker 11: that's my own definition, and I think it's probably sort 678 00:36:39,640 --> 00:36:43,520 Speaker 11: of roughly aligned with many people in the industry's definition. 679 00:36:43,920 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 11: But as I said, different people mean different things. I mean, 680 00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 11: I think the number one thing to take away for 681 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,879 Speaker 11: there's still a large segment of people, I think who 682 00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,640 Speaker 11: dismiss AI as hype and you know, sort of like, oh, 683 00:36:55,640 --> 00:36:57,879 Speaker 11: this is kind of like crypto, like this thing these 684 00:36:57,880 --> 00:37:01,319 Speaker 11: tech bros and Silicon Valley are doing. Mark Zuckerberg has 685 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:06,040 Speaker 11: never paid anyone nine figures for crypto. R AI is 686 00:37:06,080 --> 00:37:09,120 Speaker 11: in a different category, and everybody needs to be taking 687 00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 11: it very seriously. It's going to have extremely large impacts 688 00:37:12,800 --> 00:37:16,560 Speaker 11: on the economy, on the way our democracy works, and 689 00:37:16,600 --> 00:37:19,680 Speaker 11: on the rest of our society in many many ways. 690 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:22,560 Speaker 11: And then I think that that's my number one takeaway 691 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:27,759 Speaker 11: from this is like, look, the world's largest corporations are 692 00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,360 Speaker 11: taking this extremely seriously. 693 00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:30,479 Speaker 6: And you need to as well. 694 00:37:31,360 --> 00:37:34,040 Speaker 2: What does it look like to you to take this 695 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,920 Speaker 2: extremely seriously, because I feel like that's where I get 696 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 2: a little lost. I am deeply concerned. I think the 697 00:37:41,320 --> 00:37:44,960 Speaker 2: job loss is going to be extraordinary. I don't put 698 00:37:45,080 --> 00:37:50,120 Speaker 2: off the table some of the most maximust dystopian possibilities 699 00:37:50,160 --> 00:37:52,960 Speaker 2: here as well. But I'm not really sure what to 700 00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:56,520 Speaker 2: do about it at this point, because you have this 701 00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,200 Speaker 2: administration that is totally like no breaks on. 702 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,080 Speaker 7: The car Wild Wild West. 703 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 2: We've got to we're in this race versus China, and 704 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:05,440 Speaker 2: we've got to be the first to get to it, 705 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,840 Speaker 2: and they, you know, have this very aggressive no regulations 706 00:38:09,960 --> 00:38:14,120 Speaker 2: approach to it. You have people like Sam Altman and 707 00:38:14,440 --> 00:38:17,160 Speaker 2: others who are overtly out there like, yeah, we want 708 00:38:17,200 --> 00:38:19,839 Speaker 2: to replace as much of human labor and possibly all 709 00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 2: of humor human labor as possible, and we're probably going 710 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 2: to have to completely upend the social contract in order 711 00:38:25,080 --> 00:38:26,160 Speaker 2: for this to all work out. 712 00:38:26,640 --> 00:38:28,560 Speaker 7: And yet, you know, I don't see any. 713 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 2: Real large scale conversation, which is where you come in, 714 00:38:31,920 --> 00:38:34,439 Speaker 2: about what that new social contract is going to look 715 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:35,880 Speaker 2: like and how we're going to make sure that people 716 00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 2: outside of trillionaires are okay in that new world. So 717 00:38:40,600 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 2: when you say something like we need to be taken seriously, 718 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 2: like what specific things do you have in mind in particular? 719 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:50,120 Speaker 11: Yeah, it's hard because the field is moving so fast 720 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:52,520 Speaker 11: that we haven't had time for a real like civil 721 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 11: society ecosystem to evolve around AI. 722 00:38:55,920 --> 00:38:56,640 Speaker 6: Yeah. 723 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 11: So if you're somebody who might have the like interesting 724 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 11: wherewithal in like starting a new organization around AI, there 725 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:06,279 Speaker 11: are gaps everywhere. Like here's an example is I don't 726 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:10,120 Speaker 11: know of any concerted programs to educate state legislators about AI. 727 00:39:10,239 --> 00:39:11,760 Speaker 6: That's just like one example. 728 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:15,359 Speaker 11: Another example is, like I've heard many experts in the field, 729 00:39:15,440 --> 00:39:18,920 Speaker 11: like Ezra Klein and Kevin Russ and think tank people 730 00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:23,319 Speaker 11: in DC say we don't have nearly enough economic frameworks 731 00:39:23,360 --> 00:39:26,400 Speaker 11: for thinking about how about the labor dislocations that we 732 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:27,840 Speaker 11: expect are going to happen from AI. 733 00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 6: It's not like there's just gaps everywhere. 734 00:39:30,480 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 11: If you're familiar with this field, if you think that 735 00:39:32,680 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 11: somebody is doing something about AI, and you've got an 736 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 11: idea that somebody should be doing something, probably nobody is 737 00:39:38,040 --> 00:39:41,359 Speaker 11: yet or certainly not enough people. So you should go 738 00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:45,280 Speaker 11: like investigate and like maybe think about starting an effort 739 00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 11: in that field. And I don't think that there are 740 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:52,440 Speaker 11: a lot of pathways yet for people who to like engage, 741 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:55,319 Speaker 11: but I think, but I think you should call your legislators. 742 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,239 Speaker 11: I think you should talk to your legislators about how 743 00:39:57,239 --> 00:39:59,600 Speaker 11: big of an issue this is, how much you're worried 744 00:39:59,600 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 11: about it. Right now, AI is still not showing up 745 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 11: as a big issue in public opinion polling, and legislators 746 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 11: and politicians aren't hearing that much about it. I mean 747 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:09,239 Speaker 11: when I say it's not showing if this big issue, 748 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:11,839 Speaker 11: I mean it's not showing up. Like if you ask 749 00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 11: people what their top issues are, what they're most worried about, 750 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:16,040 Speaker 11: AI is not showing up on those lists. 751 00:40:16,920 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 6: And we need to shift politicians perceptions of that. 752 00:40:20,000 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 11: So if you're not going to go start a new organization, 753 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:23,839 Speaker 11: you can at least like talk to your to your 754 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:28,200 Speaker 11: legislators and your representatives about why what they You know 755 00:40:28,200 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 11: that they need to be paying attention to this. 756 00:40:29,840 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 3: And I want to ask, oh, go ahead, go ahead, 757 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:34,240 Speaker 3: was it? I want to ask about this next element 758 00:40:34,239 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 3: we put on the screen the Apple paper that went 759 00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 3: viral and got a lot of reactions to it. This 760 00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:44,439 Speaker 3: post from Reuben Hassid says Apple just proved AI quote 761 00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:47,359 Speaker 3: unquote reasoning models like Claude Deepseagar one, and oh three 762 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 3: many don't actually reason at all. They just memorize patterns 763 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 3: really well, here's what Apple discovered parentheses. Hint, we're not 764 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,959 Speaker 3: as close to AGI as the hype suggests. I read 765 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,920 Speaker 3: that post and I think, okay, yeah, I mean, no, 766 00:41:00,320 --> 00:41:03,520 Speaker 3: they don't reason, they just memorize patterns really well, they're 767 00:41:03,560 --> 00:41:08,840 Speaker 3: freaking computers. Yes, that's exactly right. But then, on the 768 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:14,279 Speaker 3: other hand, to use that as a way to dismiss 769 00:41:14,640 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 3: the our current proximity to AGI and to say that 770 00:41:19,880 --> 00:41:22,680 Speaker 3: this is all over hyped and it's it's really moving 771 00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:26,239 Speaker 3: very slowly seems ill advised. And I just kind of 772 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 3: wanted to get your reaction to I guess your reaction 773 00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 3: to the reaction from that paper. Yeah. 774 00:41:32,920 --> 00:41:35,200 Speaker 11: Look, there's a set of people out there who do 775 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 11: make their money off of and their and their fame 776 00:41:37,760 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 11: off of dismissing AI, and you know they'll sort of 777 00:41:41,080 --> 00:41:43,960 Speaker 11: seize onto papers like this to do that. I don't 778 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 11: think that this paper is actually that big. 779 00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:46,399 Speaker 6: Of a deal. 780 00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 11: In some sense, it's not saying anything that's particularly surprising. 781 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:55,759 Speaker 11: As you pointed out, it's it's asking the models to 782 00:41:55,840 --> 00:41:58,920 Speaker 11: do a set of very hard problems, and they at 783 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:01,200 Speaker 11: some point are like, basically, the models are like, this 784 00:42:01,280 --> 00:42:05,400 Speaker 11: problem is too hard. I'm going to stop now, and 785 00:42:05,440 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 11: then the authors, well, I don't even think the authors 786 00:42:08,920 --> 00:42:12,640 Speaker 11: aren't necessarily interpreting that as these models aren't good at 787 00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,640 Speaker 11: what they do. It's then there's a sort of a 788 00:42:14,640 --> 00:42:17,839 Speaker 11: whole you know, Twitter ecosystem that's like, well, now we've 789 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:19,400 Speaker 11: proved that these models aren't good at what they do. 790 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:21,399 Speaker 11: Guess what if you give me one of these hard 791 00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:24,400 Speaker 11: problems that they gave these models. I'm also going to 792 00:42:24,440 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 11: be like, yeah, sorry, I don't have time for this. 793 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,480 Speaker 11: This is like you've because had a said I have 794 00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:30,319 Speaker 11: to solve this. They give the models constraints like you 795 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 11: have to solve this in a certain context window, which 796 00:42:32,719 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 11: is maybe roughly equivalent to telling me I have an 797 00:42:34,640 --> 00:42:36,759 Speaker 11: hour to solve it, and I'm like, I can't solve 798 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 11: that problem in an hour, So I'm going to stop 799 00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 11: now and then interpreting. But I hope you all think 800 00:42:43,040 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 11: that I'm artificial intelligence or sorry, I'm general intelligence, right, 801 00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 11: I'm not artificial intelligence. 802 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,480 Speaker 6: And so they're sort of actually in. 803 00:42:50,440 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 11: Some ways behaving a lot like humans in these situations, 804 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:55,919 Speaker 11: and we're interpreting. Some people are interpreting that as saying 805 00:42:55,960 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 11: that they aren't smart, which I think is just not true. 806 00:42:58,960 --> 00:43:03,319 Speaker 2: Another thing that I've wondered is there's this sort of 807 00:43:03,360 --> 00:43:06,440 Speaker 2: like line that's drawn. We were talking about the metaproject 808 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:10,000 Speaker 2: to develop AGI ared Official General Intelligence, and you were saying, 809 00:43:10,000 --> 00:43:12,960 Speaker 2: there's all kinds of different terminologies for you know, meaning 810 00:43:13,000 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 2: whatever this milestone is, Like how much of a just 811 00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:21,200 Speaker 2: sort of like line that you cross is AGI and 812 00:43:21,239 --> 00:43:24,160 Speaker 2: how much of it is more of a sense. And 813 00:43:24,239 --> 00:43:26,280 Speaker 2: it's a little bit hard to tell whether you're there 814 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:29,439 Speaker 2: or you're not. Like, help me understand when people talk 815 00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:34,040 Speaker 2: about AGI, how much it will be clear when we've 816 00:43:34,080 --> 00:43:37,919 Speaker 2: achieved this whatever this benchmark is. Because I also see 817 00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:40,279 Speaker 2: things like you I see that study from you know, 818 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,320 Speaker 2: I see that particular study that was going around. I 819 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:45,799 Speaker 2: also see these other studies where AI is scheming to 820 00:43:45,880 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 2: make sure it's not getting shut off and trying to 821 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:50,359 Speaker 2: like blackmail an engineer with an affair that they think 822 00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:53,880 Speaker 2: the engineer is engaged in to avoid having their programming change. 823 00:43:54,200 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 2: You know, I see things that are deeply disturbing in 824 00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:01,120 Speaker 2: terms of AI engaging in. I mean those are very 825 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:06,120 Speaker 2: like human type behaviors and trying to defy the wishes 826 00:44:06,160 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 2: of their programmers. 827 00:44:07,800 --> 00:44:11,080 Speaker 7: So where are we in that development and will we. 828 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,440 Speaker 2: Really Is it like this hard fast line of we 829 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:16,960 Speaker 2: are not at AGI and now we are at AGI 830 00:44:17,040 --> 00:44:18,000 Speaker 2: and it's very clear cut. 831 00:44:19,480 --> 00:44:23,399 Speaker 11: Yeah, this is a great question. I think different. Well, 832 00:44:23,440 --> 00:44:25,719 Speaker 11: I think most people in the industry would say it's 833 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 11: not a hard line. And there's there's a term that's 834 00:44:28,600 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 11: called the jagged frontier. It's like the models can be 835 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,720 Speaker 11: very good at some things and very bad other things 836 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,200 Speaker 11: that humans can do. That by the same token, you 837 00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 11: could say that humans have a jagged frontier, like humans 838 00:44:38,680 --> 00:44:40,400 Speaker 11: are very good at some things compared to AI, and 839 00:44:40,480 --> 00:44:41,760 Speaker 11: very bad at other things. 840 00:44:41,640 --> 00:44:42,680 Speaker 6: Compared to current AI. 841 00:44:43,560 --> 00:44:46,840 Speaker 11: So I don't think we're going to immediately cross the 842 00:44:46,920 --> 00:44:49,959 Speaker 11: rubicon of like suddenly the models are very are better 843 00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 11: than humans at everything, including for instance, operating a physical 844 00:44:54,080 --> 00:44:56,640 Speaker 11: body in physical space. Right, that's not going to happen 845 00:44:56,840 --> 00:45:05,240 Speaker 11: literally overnight, probably, But you always have to qualify everything 846 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,760 Speaker 11: you say about AI as like I think so probably 847 00:45:07,880 --> 00:45:10,319 Speaker 11: anybody who's not qualifying their statements. I think you have 848 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 11: to give you have to be worried about how much 849 00:45:12,640 --> 00:45:17,480 Speaker 11: you can trust what they're saying. So, but I think 850 00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 11: that you know we are we at AGI now. I mean, 851 00:45:21,719 --> 00:45:24,759 Speaker 11: it's an interesting question because for a long time, the 852 00:45:24,800 --> 00:45:27,080 Speaker 11: test that everybody thought we were going to use for 853 00:45:27,120 --> 00:45:29,200 Speaker 11: this was called the Turing test, and people who haven't 854 00:45:29,239 --> 00:45:32,960 Speaker 11: heard of it, the Turing test is you put a 855 00:45:33,040 --> 00:45:35,800 Speaker 11: human behind a computer and an AI behind a computer 856 00:45:35,920 --> 00:45:38,120 Speaker 11: or in the computer, and then you have another human 857 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:41,880 Speaker 11: interview both of them, right, And if the human who's 858 00:45:41,920 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 11: interviewing can't tell whether they're talking to the other human 859 00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:48,520 Speaker 11: or to the AI, then the AI has passed the 860 00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:52,600 Speaker 11: Turing test of intelligence. And these models pass that test now, 861 00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:56,360 Speaker 11: the cutting edge models, right, and so by that define 862 00:45:56,440 --> 00:45:59,239 Speaker 11: the definition that we had all used for literally decades, 863 00:45:59,560 --> 00:46:00,760 Speaker 11: invented by Alan Turing. 864 00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:01,919 Speaker 6: We've already gotten there. 865 00:46:02,040 --> 00:46:04,160 Speaker 11: And yet these models are very bad at a lot 866 00:46:04,160 --> 00:46:07,279 Speaker 11: of things that humans are good at. And I don't 867 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 11: I think anybody is anybody of serious repute as saying 868 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:15,080 Speaker 11: we've actually hit AGI. So the goalposts are moving over time, 869 00:46:15,400 --> 00:46:16,960 Speaker 11: I think the goalposts will keep moving. 870 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:23,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, the train of acceleration is just unbelievable. I was 871 00:46:23,800 --> 00:46:26,640 Speaker 3: listening to an old through Line episode on Ralph Nader 872 00:46:27,160 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 3: and thinking about this, actually, because that's from car accidents 873 00:46:30,560 --> 00:46:32,640 Speaker 3: used to be like five times as high as they 874 00:46:32,640 --> 00:46:34,600 Speaker 3: are now. It took us actually a really long time 875 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:39,040 Speaker 3: and a lot of tragedy to adapt our policies to 876 00:46:39,120 --> 00:46:42,080 Speaker 3: make our roads relatively safe. I mean, relatively is an 877 00:46:42,120 --> 00:46:45,839 Speaker 3: important word there. And I guess I'm just wondering how 878 00:46:45,840 --> 00:46:51,440 Speaker 3: optimistic you are about the policy evolution meeting the moment, 879 00:46:52,040 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 3: because right now it looks very bleak for some understandable reasons. 880 00:46:55,560 --> 00:46:57,640 Speaker 3: I mean, it's hard to define, it's hard to see 881 00:46:57,640 --> 00:46:59,960 Speaker 3: what the future looks like exactly. Things are moving very quick, 882 00:47:01,200 --> 00:47:05,520 Speaker 3: but it just seems like the reaction is completely non 883 00:47:05,520 --> 00:47:06,959 Speaker 3: existent here in DC. 884 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:10,560 Speaker 11: Yeah, I mean there's a lot of reasons to be pessimistic. 885 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:13,400 Speaker 11: I think the reason to be optimistic is sort of like, 886 00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:15,680 Speaker 11: if you take a step back, humanity has faced a 887 00:47:15,719 --> 00:47:18,560 Speaker 11: lot of threats in the past, and so far we've 888 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:23,920 Speaker 11: survived them all right, And so you know, humans are resilient, 889 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 11: and we do live in an era when lots of 890 00:47:28,040 --> 00:47:32,200 Speaker 11: people have agency. 891 00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 3: And. 892 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:36,000 Speaker 11: I hope, I mean, these are choices we are making right. 893 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,440 Speaker 11: These are not inevitable conclusions. These are choices that we 894 00:47:38,480 --> 00:47:40,880 Speaker 11: as individuals and as society are making about how to 895 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:44,360 Speaker 11: respond to AI. And I hope we can rise to 896 00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:47,120 Speaker 11: this challenge. I don't think it's impossible, but it is 897 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 11: a huge challenge, there's no doubt about that. 898 00:47:51,640 --> 00:47:51,920 Speaker 7: Karen. 899 00:47:51,960 --> 00:47:54,200 Speaker 2: Thank you so much for joining us this morning.
