Because I have a multiple 35 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 1: times in my life not waited and then you're dying, 36 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,480 Speaker 1: I think, but maybe I'll die in my fifties from it, 37 00:02:20,760 --> 00:02:24,480 Speaker 1: from like stocking up, it's like stop, like a sleep 38 00:02:24,520 --> 00:02:26,800 Speaker 1: debt that you've built up. It's like too much time 39 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,560 Speaker 1: swimming after with just fifteen minutes after eating. 40 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:32,839 Speaker 2: No, yeah, we've all been there. 41 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 4: You know. 42 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:33,760 Speaker 2: You're a kid. 43 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 3: You want to go back in the pool, it's hot, 44 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,000 Speaker 3: you want to play with your friends, but some adults 45 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 3: to tell you you can't do it. Yeah, you have 46 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 3: to wait thirty minutes. And and for me this was 47 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 3: kind of personal because my aunt was a doctor and 48 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 3: she would take of swimming all the time. She'd be like, no, 49 00:02:45,440 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 3: you have to wait thirty minutes after eating, and so 50 00:02:48,639 --> 00:02:51,760 Speaker 3: in this episode, I really wanted to know the answer. Yeah, 51 00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 3: which is apparently you don't have to wait thirty minutes 52 00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:00,280 Speaker 3: after eating to go swimming, but you probably should. Okay, yeah, 53 00:03:00,880 --> 00:03:04,440 Speaker 3: probably should, but you don't, Like, yeah, you're not gonna die, 54 00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:07,520 Speaker 3: You're not gonna get cramps. Cramps are not related to 55 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 3: what you actually cramps are related to what you don't eat, 56 00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 3: Like if you don't eat enough electrolytes or sugars, they 57 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,320 Speaker 3: think maybe that's one cause for cramps, which is super 58 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,919 Speaker 3: interesting to me that scientists don't know what causes cram Yeah, 59 00:03:21,080 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: it's like they're one of those taking it up. 60 00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:27,160 Speaker 2: We don't know. Yeah, seem real. 61 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: It seems like it's one of those a public health 62 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: policy question like where it's like, I mean, you could 63 00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,600 Speaker 1: probably get away with it on your own, but like 64 00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 1: as a public pool policy, if you don't want people 65 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 1: throwing up in your pool or you know, cramping in 66 00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,440 Speaker 1: a giant pool, then like it's probably good policy to 67 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,920 Speaker 1: have for a whole ass public pool, you know. 68 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it's probably just recommended just because you know, 69 00:03:53,000 --> 00:03:55,600 Speaker 3: you're you're kind of flat when you're swimming, so your 70 00:03:55,640 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 3: stomach kind of gets turned around. 71 00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:02,080 Speaker 2: Oh it's like the zero gravity stuff that space.

But Okay, so I'm in this office 184 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 4: park and you're kind of stoned on Kennemine, so like 185 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 4: you have the same kind of thoughts, like like office park. 186 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,360 Speaker 4: I started thinking about that term, you know, for a while, 187 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 4: and I was just like, what the fuck? 188 00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:49,720 Speaker 5: Like even that, I was like, I think you're having 189 00:09:49,720 --> 00:09:54,200 Speaker 5: a bad trip of only kind of parks America, you know, 190 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:58,080 Speaker 5: like yes, you know what I mean. 191 00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,520 Speaker 4: Like office park was enough for me to. 192 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: Like the top three parks number one, amusing the park, 193 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:03,319 Speaker 1: number two. 194 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 2: Water Park number three. This is only three good parts. 195 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,080 Speaker 4: So yeah, so I was like I was already like 196 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 4: because it's like they give you the nasal spray, you 197 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,880 Speaker 4: take three of them one and then wait five minutes 198 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:20,760 Speaker 4: and then you have another. And that was the dose 199 00:10:20,840 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 4: I did the first couple of times, and I still 200 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 4: freaked out, but I have managed to calm myself down 201 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:27,800 Speaker 4: and let myself get through it. And it's not easy, 202 00:10:28,200 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 4: and I think that's helping helping because I realized how 203 00:10:31,800 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 4: wound up I am? And did I tell you I 204 00:10:34,520 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 4: found a Johns Hopkins ketamine playlist?

I talked about Irish history for a really 222 00:11:11,360 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 4: long time. I was the guy and he was like, Okay, 223 00:11:14,480 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 4: I gotta I gotta go check on other patients. Are 224 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 4: you I don't think you're dying, probably because you're talking 225 00:11:19,880 --> 00:11:23,120 Speaker 4: a lot.

I'm 228 00:11:29,160 --> 00:11:33,200 Speaker 4: looking at my Instagram on Keademy, and I'm taking the 229 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:35,200 Speaker 4: full dose now and I'm managing it and I'm feeling 230 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:36,680 Speaker 4: pretty good about it. But it does help me to 231 00:11:36,679 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 4: look at my phone to just kick me from freaking out. 232 00:11:40,200 --> 00:11:42,600 Speaker 4: And then I listened to music too, and I did 233 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 4: look up some one of the doctors did say, hey, 234 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 4: do you listen to anything while you're doing this, And 235 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:49,040 Speaker 4: I said no, I think it'll freak me out. But 236 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 4: I was imagining listening to like Bob Dylan or something, 237 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:56,520 Speaker 4: and so I was like, no, there are Spravado playlists. 238 00:11:56,880 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 4: There are Ketemy playlists on Spotify. So that made it 239 00:12:00,400 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 4: feel like I wasn't gonna die because I was like, 240 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,320 Speaker 4: they can't be making playlists for something that kills you. 241 00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,559 Speaker 4: I don't think, yeah, right, right right, And and Johns Hopkins, 242 00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:10,480 Speaker 4: even though Johns Hopkins is probably completely defunded and run 243 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,600 Speaker 4: by you know, Kelly M Conway. Now, it still made 244 00:12:13,679 --> 00:12:16,560 Speaker 4: me feel better that it was a Johns Hopkins playlist. 245 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:18,520 Speaker 4: I was like, they can't be making playlists for people 246 00:12:18,520 --> 00:12:21,320 Speaker 4: to get killed by.

Like it feels 616 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,760 Speaker 1: like it's on the same level of like what a 617 00:31:10,880 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 1: child in the nineteen seventies thought was like. 618 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:17,720 Speaker 2: Cool and scary and a big deal. I was wrong. Yeah, 619 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,920 Speaker 2: I was wrong about the border wall.

One 670 00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:05,720 Speaker 1: is like a MIT like long academic paper that Jorge, 671 00:34:05,760 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: You'd probably be better at deciphering than I would. But 672 00:34:09,680 --> 00:34:13,799 Speaker 1: it's this Forbes article is interesting because it kind of 673 00:34:13,920 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 1: presents it as like here's an exciting wing. Yeah yeah, yeah, 674 00:34:19,000 --> 00:34:21,360 Speaker 1: as they put it, doing their best to hide their boner. 675 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: AI assistance could start manipulating you into making decisions and 676 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 1: then selling your plans to the highest bidder before you've 677 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: even consciously made your mind up. AI agents, from chatbot 678 00:34:33,160 --> 00:34:37,280 Speaker 1: assistants to digital tutors and girlfriends, could exploit the access 679 00:34:37,360 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: that they have to our psychological and behavioral data and 680 00:34:41,040 --> 00:34:46,879 Speaker 1: manipulate our responses by mimicking personalities and anticipating desired responses. 681 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:53,120 Speaker 1: The fact that they even have the word manipulate, it's 682 00:34:53,160 --> 00:34:56,080 Speaker 1: like the fusing. Like all of these technologies that I 683 00:34:56,120 --> 00:35:00,000 Speaker 1: think the social media like feeds and like the algorith 684 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,759 Speaker 1: that they use, I think people just like took them 685 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 1: at face value of like it's going to show me 686 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:07,920 Speaker 1: pictures that I want to see, and people weren't like 687 00:35:08,000 --> 00:35:11,799 Speaker 1: And they're working with the people who designed addictive gambling 688 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: games to like figure out how to make it so 689 00:35:15,040 --> 00:35:18,120 Speaker 1: that you never want to stop and like can't stop 690 00:35:18,239 --> 00:35:23,319 Speaker 1: looking or interacting with the thing. So it's troubling, and 691 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: it's like there's all sorts of really sophisticated ways that 692 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: they're you know, manipulating or convincing or doing all these things. 693 00:35:31,800 --> 00:35:34,880 Speaker 1: And I'm just curious Orge kind of as a former 694 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:38,719 Speaker 1: roboticist and somebody who's you know, recently done deep dives 695 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,960 Speaker 1: into things like hypnotism and stuff like that, Like, how 696 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 1: do you think about this sort of thing? 697 00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I think it kind of goes back to 698 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,400 Speaker 3: even the nineteen nineties. You know, what made Google so 699 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:55,280 Speaker 3: revolutionary and special was that it was a good search engine, 700 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,279 Speaker 3: but it was good at giving you ads that it 701 00:35:58,360 --> 00:36:01,600 Speaker 3: thought that you wanted to see, right, And so I 702 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 3: think part of this human humans kind of want that, 703 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:06,040 Speaker 3: you know, like we don't want to be shown as 704 00:36:06,080 --> 00:36:08,319 Speaker 3: for things we don't would never buy or never want 705 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 3: to see, right, We want to be shown as it 706 00:36:11,080 --> 00:36:13,399 Speaker 3: kind of help us. And in fact, if you look 707 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:16,760 Speaker 3: at research into like happiness, like what makes people happy 708 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:20,640 Speaker 3: at some point, like having too many choices in your 709 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 3: life makes you unhappy, right, Yeah, in a way, like 710 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,240 Speaker 3: we kind of need help a little bit just helping 711 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,120 Speaker 3: us make decisions, and something that maybe helps you narrow 712 00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 3: your choices down can make you a little bit happier. 713 00:36:34,120 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 3: But as you said, you know, humans have a long 714 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:40,319 Speaker 3: history of manipulating others using whatever tools are available to 715 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:45,400 Speaker 3: manipulate others. And so yeah, you can definitely imagine that 716 00:36:45,680 --> 00:36:49,520 Speaker 3: being used to like influence what you buy, what you 717 00:36:49,640 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 3: what you're into. And what I learned from hypnotism looking 718 00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:58,560 Speaker 3: into hypnotism for one of our episodes was and I 719 00:36:58,600 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 3: actually got hypnotized in the episodes. We can talk a 720 00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:02,359 Speaker 3: little bit about that if you like. 721 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:04,839 Speaker 2: Are you still under by the way, right? Yeah, yeah, 722 00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:08,759 Speaker 2: I'm still hopping. That's why I do the show. I'm 723 00:37:08,760 --> 00:37:09,919 Speaker 2: still hopping on one leg. 724 00:37:12,080 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 3: Is that you know, at the end of the day, 725 00:37:15,040 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 3: you have a subconscious you know, then people can mess with, 726 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:20,480 Speaker 3: people can try to influence, but at the end of 727 00:37:20,520 --> 00:37:22,440 Speaker 3: the day, it's still your choice on things. You know, 728 00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 3: you're the one who's still give on things. You're the 729 00:37:24,560 --> 00:37:27,439 Speaker 3: one who's making all of these options. And so yeah, 730 00:37:27,600 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 3: there's totally the potential to influence people in a bad way, 731 00:37:31,760 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 3: in a good way, but hopefully people still exercise their 732 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:36,800 Speaker 3: free will, yeah. 733 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:39,160 Speaker 2: Or understand I think very least people need to understand 734 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:41,800 Speaker 2: that their free will is under attack. I think that's 735 00:37:41,880 --> 00:37:44,640 Speaker 2: the difference is that there's a lot of these passive 736 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 2: ways that seemingly are like well, that's crazy Instagram knows 737 00:37:48,600 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 2: like what I want to buy, like every time, like 738 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,960 Speaker 2: I'm just buying stuff off there and I agree. Like 739 00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,680 Speaker 2: there's sometimes I'm like, oh shit, this is actually something 740 00:37:56,719 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 2: I'm really interested in and I'm glad I found out 741 00:37:59,120 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 2: about other times like who do you think I am? 742 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 2: And why would I want this? But I think understanding 743 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 2: how I think, really understanding how the people like From 744 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:11,000 Speaker 2: this MIT paper, like this is really chilling right from 745 00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 2: this MIT paper says quote, we survey recent efforts by 746 00:38:13,880 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 2: tech executives to position the capture, manipulation, and commodification of 747 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:22,239 Speaker 2: human intentionality as a lucrative parallel to and viable extension 748 00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:26,360 Speaker 2: of the now dominant attention economy, which has bent consumer, civic, 749 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:29,520 Speaker 2: and media norms around users finite attention span since the 750 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:33,440 Speaker 2: nineteen nineties. We call this follow on the intention economy 751 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 2: of like to understand it's like, yes, we have our 752 00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:38,560 Speaker 2: free will, but also know that there are people that 753 00:38:38,680 --> 00:38:42,160 Speaker 2: are at these levers that can absolutely have an effect 754 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:45,160 Speaker 2: on what we perceive to be like the decisions we're 755 00:38:45,160 --> 00:38:48,040 Speaker 2: making independently. And I think that's the part I think 756 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 2: to get in touch with a little more because I 757 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,360 Speaker 2: think as long as you know that that that's better 758 00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:55,840 Speaker 2: than like talking to like one of my older parents 759 00:38:55,880 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 2: who has known dude. My mom showed me this AI 760 00:38:58,840 --> 00:39:02,680 Speaker 2: slop video and she's like, why would this giraffe do this? 761 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:08,640 Speaker 2: And I was like, Mom, no, like if it felt 762 00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:10,760 Speaker 2: like I was watching her turn into like a smith 763 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,120 Speaker 2: or something like with her red. 764 00:39:12,000 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 7: I say why, I'm like. 765 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:19,120 Speaker 2: It's bullshit, let it go. Yeah. But the second I 766 00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:21,320 Speaker 2: told her like all these things just start up, She's like, 767 00:39:21,360 --> 00:39:23,560 Speaker 2: oh shit, I didn't. She's like, it's the first time 768 00:39:23,560 --> 00:39:25,600 Speaker 2: I saw anything like this. But now this makes sense 769 00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:28,440 Speaker 2: because other people I know will talk about things like this. 770 00:39:28,840 --> 00:39:31,279 Speaker 2: I think we have to at least have that attention 771 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:33,400 Speaker 2: on it to help safeguard. 772 00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:35,680 Speaker 3: There's definitely like a line right where you know, if 773 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 3: you're paying for an AI to help you and it 774 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:41,960 Speaker 3: actually has your best interests in mind and really wants 775 00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:44,400 Speaker 3: to give you something that you might like, then I 776 00:39:44,400 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 3: think that can be helpful. But if you or if 777 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 3: they don't tell you that they're also taking money from 778 00:39:49,320 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 3: an advertiser to try to feed you these things, and 779 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,040 Speaker 3: that's where it gets really sketched. 780 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:57,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, or a political campaign or candidate or party.

You know, my restaurants need to 827 00:42:20,960 --> 00:42:22,800 Speaker 3: have like a no phone. 828 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:24,840 Speaker 1: I mean I feel like that would be trendy, but 829 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,480 Speaker 1: it would never like take over, like the Surgeon General 830 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:28,080 Speaker 1: is never going to. 831 00:42:28,120 --> 00:42:31,040 Speaker 2: Be like you must. Maybe it happened where they're like 832 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:35,120 Speaker 2: there was a this guy, the sushi chef Nozawa, who 833 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 2: if you've heard of the sugarfish like restaurant chain, it's 834 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,719 Speaker 2: comes from this guy in Nozawa. And when he like 835 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:44,240 Speaker 2: he started off with a small sushi shop on Ventura 836 00:42:44,280 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 2: Blevard in the valley, and when cell phones became a 837 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:49,080 Speaker 2: thing because a ton of studio people would go in there, 838 00:42:49,320 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 2: he had a no cell phone pot Like he would 839 00:42:52,320 --> 00:42:55,400 Speaker 2: throw fucking people out mid meal for picking up a 840 00:42:55,440 --> 00:42:58,120 Speaker 2: phone call. And he became legendary. But then it was 841 00:42:58,160 --> 00:43:00,840 Speaker 2: like then very quickly he I gave up. He's like, 842 00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,919 Speaker 2: I can't, I can't battle every he gave up. Oh no, yeah, yeah, 843 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:06,719 Speaker 2: I mean because I think once you throw out a 844 00:43:06,719 --> 00:43:11,800 Speaker 2: few studio executives, probably it becomes bad for business exactly. 845 00:43:11,880 --> 00:43:14,880 Speaker 1: And like I mean think about like this is phones 846 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:17,719 Speaker 1: are going to be or you know ai assistants are 847 00:43:17,719 --> 00:43:20,279 Speaker 1: going to be how like all business is conducted, so 848 00:43:20,400 --> 00:43:24,000 Speaker 1: I'm assuming also will be seen as bad for business 849 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,000 Speaker 1: to institute laws Like I just think it's going to 850 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:30,600 Speaker 1: be on us to make these decisions to like, you know, 851 00:43:30,840 --> 00:43:34,160 Speaker 1: live with free will or not. And I think like 852 00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 1: to the you know, one of the key takeaways from 853 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:39,960 Speaker 1: your hypnotism episode is like, you can't be hypnotized into 854 00:43:40,000 --> 00:43:43,360 Speaker 1: doing something you don't want to do. But I also 855 00:43:43,560 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 1: to the to the point that you just raised, like, 856 00:43:45,080 --> 00:43:47,720 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people will want the AI 857 00:43:47,840 --> 00:43:50,560 Speaker 1: assistant to just like be like, I don't know, man, 858 00:43:51,400 --> 00:43:53,480 Speaker 1: I got a lot going on, Like you just take 859 00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: it from here. 860 00:43:55,080 --> 00:43:57,719 Speaker 3: Whatever, show me something that I'm gonna it's gonna relax me. 861 00:43:58,040 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 3: But I think where it gets tricky is kind of 862 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,719 Speaker 3: the same sho economical part, right, Yeah, people people who 863 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,440 Speaker 3: can afford it will pay for the like the clean, neutral, 864 00:44:06,040 --> 00:44:08,720 Speaker 3: nice version of AI. But people who can afford it 865 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:09,879 Speaker 3: will have to you. 866 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,840 Speaker 2: Know, add supported version and add. 867 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 3: Hypnotize you know, add subliminal messages version. But because that's 868 00:44:19,160 --> 00:44:20,280 Speaker 3: what they can afford. 869 00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's yeah, it's very I mean, like I'm 870 00:44:24,040 --> 00:44:26,960 Speaker 2: also like from a scientific perspective, do you ever worry 871 00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 2: about like you you hear a lot about like language 872 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,840 Speaker 2: hegemony and research and how like the English language dominates 873 00:44:33,880 --> 00:44:36,759 Speaker 2: a lot of scientific research and as a result, it 874 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:40,759 Speaker 2: causes research and other language to languages to not get 875 00:44:40,760 --> 00:44:43,879 Speaker 2: as much attention as maybe it could be. Or also 876 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 2: other people have pointed out that it's like if everyone 877 00:44:46,080 --> 00:44:50,320 Speaker 2: thinks in the same language, certain mistakes can happen because 878 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:53,280 Speaker 2: you're using everyone's sort of using the same language linguistic 879 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:56,720 Speaker 2: pathways to arrive at a solution, whereas like varied forms 880 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,319 Speaker 2: of languages have different sort of pathways to solve a 881 00:44:59,360 --> 00:45:02,200 Speaker 2: problem just based on how the language is structured. I 882 00:45:02,280 --> 00:45:05,920 Speaker 2: wonder too, if, like with the proliferation of people using 883 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,760 Speaker 2: AI more and more, if that is just now another 884 00:45:08,880 --> 00:45:13,040 Speaker 2: layer of vulnerability where there's like a version where people 885 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:17,160 Speaker 2: aren't giving it the same kind of vetting or analysis 886 00:45:17,160 --> 00:45:19,920 Speaker 2: as they would because they're presuming it to be completely correct. 887 00:45:19,960 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 2: And then does that lead to some kind of science 888 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:23,080 Speaker 2: What is this going to do for? 889 00:45:23,600 --> 00:45:25,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, what is this going to do for like outside 890 00:45:25,520 --> 00:45:27,680 Speaker 1: the box thinking? When you have a thing doing your 891 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:30,160 Speaker 1: thinking for you that is just drawing on all previous 892 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 1: thoughts yeah, and remixing it. It's like, yes, we're not 893 00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:37,879 Speaker 1: going to have a lot of cool new ideas coming through. 894 00:45:38,400 --> 00:45:39,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, for sure. 895 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,920 Speaker 3: And you know, for sure like scientists definitely talk about, 896 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,359 Speaker 3: you know, having a common language. You know, you kind 897 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,480 Speaker 3: of need that in order to exchange ideas about science. 898 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 3: Kind of hard to do it through translator, so that 899 00:45:50,360 --> 00:45:53,120 Speaker 3: a little bit of that is inevitable. But you know, 900 00:45:53,120 --> 00:45:55,400 Speaker 3: I always take comfort in the fact that if you 901 00:45:55,400 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 3: ever talk to a scientists or any scientists, their dream 902 00:45:59,120 --> 00:46:03,120 Speaker 3: is to be like the one person who's contrariant who turns. 903 00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:05,320 Speaker 2: Out to be right, you know, to be the person 904 00:46:05,320 --> 00:46:09,120 Speaker 2: who's revolutionary big of science, the scientific Yeah. 905 00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:11,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, everyone wants to be the person who up ends 906 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 3: the field or everyone wants to be the person who 907 00:46:13,560 --> 00:46:16,520 Speaker 3: proves everyone. So my feeling is like hopefully and this 908 00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:18,759 Speaker 3: will continue, is that science is kind of set up 909 00:46:18,800 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 3: so that, you know, people are always questioning the assumptions 910 00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:24,239 Speaker 3: that aren't being made and the results that are being 911 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 3: that come out. Uh So that's my hope in the 912 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 3: parents that that continues. 913 00:46:28,920 --> 00:46:32,799 Speaker 1: They're doing that from China, they will not be doing 914 00:46:32,800 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 1: it from the United States. 915 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:37,120 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, and I think that also I definitely agree 916 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:38,680 Speaker 2: with that because I feel like the people that have 917 00:46:38,719 --> 00:46:42,040 Speaker 2: been most vocal about questioning AI have been scientists and 918 00:46:42,200 --> 00:46:45,319 Speaker 2: researchers because they're also just sort of like, well, it 919 00:46:45,400 --> 00:46:49,799 Speaker 2: does these things, fine, let's really talk about everything, and yeah, 920 00:46:49,800 --> 00:46:52,600 Speaker 2: I guess I never think about like, yeah much in 921 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:55,719 Speaker 2: the same Yeah, people want like that's that's the hw 922 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,040 Speaker 2: you would chase as a researcher or a scientist. It's 923 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:04,439 Speaker 2: like they fucking overlook this, yeah right right right, So yeah, 924 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:06,640 Speaker 2: maybe we do have something in built there and the 925 00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,879 Speaker 2: sciences that will help. How annoying scientists are? 926 00:47:10,040 --> 00:47:14,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, people say there's three kinds of scientists, the scientist 927 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 3: who uh first poses a question, and the scientist who 928 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:21,640 Speaker 3: answers the question, and then everyone in between, who nobody 929 00:47:21,640 --> 00:47:22,600 Speaker 3: ever remembers. 930 00:47:22,920 --> 00:47:28,799 Speaker 2: Right, damn damn. Now watch we peel this banana from 931 00:47:29,400 --> 00:47:31,960 Speaker 2: the tip end. Have you seen somebody open a banana 932 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:35,400 Speaker 2: from the tip end? Yeah? Yeah, I've been the person 933 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:37,879 Speaker 2: who thought that was that's the way to do it, 934 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:39,719 Speaker 2: the better way to do it, that's the way to 935 00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:40,320 Speaker 2: do it. 936 00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:43,040 Speaker 3: It's actually easier. Yeah, well there's a trade. There is 937 00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:44,680 Speaker 3: a trade about we can't get into it. 938 00:47:44,880 --> 00:47:46,839 Speaker 2: Wait, hold on no, and I need to know because 939 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,440 Speaker 2: we're just talking about contrarians. And I saw somebody's like, yeah, 940 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:50,960 Speaker 2: let me open this banana for your kid. I said, 941 00:47:51,000 --> 00:47:53,320 Speaker 2: what the fuck are you doing it? From that in front? 942 00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,720 Speaker 2: There's there's answer banana. Right, there's a point that stems 943 00:47:56,760 --> 00:47:59,799 Speaker 2: that connects to the rest of the planet. That that's 944 00:47:59,840 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 2: not the tail, right that you would call the other 945 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:07,360 Speaker 2: end the tail where it ends. Oh wait, I'm calling 946 00:48:07,360 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 2: it from the stem. I open it from the stem end. 947 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,359 Speaker 3: Ye right, Yeah, that's how I've always done it, But 948 00:48:13,400 --> 00:48:16,640 Speaker 3: recently I got shown that trick too of opening it 949 00:48:16,800 --> 00:48:20,480 Speaker 3: from the tip end, and it is easier, especially if 950 00:48:20,719 --> 00:48:22,799 Speaker 3: the banana is not quite ripe, like if it's a 951 00:48:22,800 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 3: little green and it's it's kind of hard to open 952 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:26,640 Speaker 3: it from the step in. Then it's a lot easier 953 00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 3: to just squeeze the tip, uh, and then then it 954 00:48:29,560 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 3: just kind of opens up. 955 00:48:30,920 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: Oh So it changed me when I saw and we're 956 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: about to bring us to our next subject after the break, 957 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:38,960 Speaker 1: we're seeing a gorilla open a banana where they just 958 00:48:39,000 --> 00:48:40,920 Speaker 1: break it, snap it in half, and then just like 959 00:48:41,000 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 1: kind of shoot it out. 960 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:47,040 Speaker 2: That might be easier. Yeah, you'll they just half. Yeah, 961 00:48:47,080 --> 00:48:49,759 Speaker 2: you break it, and they break pretty easy. I highly 962 00:48:49,800 --> 00:48:52,680 Speaker 2: recommend it. It's a great feeling. I broke. I nearly 963 00:48:52,719 --> 00:48:55,920 Speaker 2: broke my hands trying to break it. Oh no, I'm 964 00:48:55,920 --> 00:48:59,280 Speaker 2: telling you, theserillas, you're not one. 965 00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:04,320 Speaker 3: Hundred banana like Miles roped the banana. 966 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:10,080 Speaker 2: We need that in a distract him. Let's take a 967 00:49:10,160 --> 00:49:10,560 Speaker 2: quick break. 968 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:13,560 Speaker 1: We'll come back and talk about the most important scientific 969 00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:26,439 Speaker 1: question of the day. We'll be right back, and we're back, 970 00:49:27,000 --> 00:49:29,880 Speaker 1: and it's shot in Freud a week on. He's like 971 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:31,480 Speaker 1: Geist every day. 972 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:32,600 Speaker 2: Every day. 973 00:49:34,440 --> 00:49:36,160 Speaker 1: We like to just take a quick look at how 974 00:49:36,200 --> 00:49:39,520 Speaker 1: things are going for some of the people who jump 975 00:49:39,600 --> 00:49:43,360 Speaker 1: on jumped on the Trump train and expected that it 976 00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 1: was gonna go well for them, despite all evidence that 977 00:49:48,000 --> 00:49:50,719 Speaker 1: everybody who sides with him ends up getting sucked over. 978 00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,800 Speaker 2: And yeah, at every level, even the grifters most of 979 00:49:53,800 --> 00:49:56,240 Speaker 2: the time, unless your last name is Trump, because they're 980 00:49:56,320 --> 00:49:59,440 Speaker 2: they're Donald Trump.

McMillan, who's one of the organizers, acknowledged that 1087 00:55:09,800 --> 00:55:13,200 Speaker 2: she asked attendees with comped tickets to bring bottles of 1088 00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:15,760 Speaker 2: alcohol to fill out the bar, even though the website 1089 00:55:15,800 --> 00:55:19,920 Speaker 2: promised quote premium drinks. Another organizer himself asked the husband 1090 00:55:19,920 --> 00:55:21,800 Speaker 2: of a photographer who had been hired to shoot the 1091 00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 2: event to bring some alcohol as well. Then bring alcohol. 1092 00:55:27,080 --> 00:55:30,279 Speaker 2: The man then warned the organizer to call off the 1093 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:33,839 Speaker 2: party before a fire festival style debacle ensued.

Later, 1096 00:55:40,200 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 2: when the photographer realized she wouldn't be paid to shoot 1097 00:55:43,080 --> 00:55:46,879 Speaker 2: the party, she canceled the Instagram. The Instagram account under 1098 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,400 Speaker 2: one of the organizer's names subsequently sent a message to 1099 00:55:49,400 --> 00:55:53,680 Speaker 2: the photographer with the line fuck you whore.
