Is why the 56 00:03:07,880 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 2: poll numbers are where they are on people's attitudes about 57 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: the economy. Remind people that, hey, gas prices are dang 58 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:15,200 Speaker 2: danglan they are, and all that sort of stuff. But 59 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 2: the interest rate situation today, so they're almost certainly going 60 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 2: to cut interest rates today.

And the no votes are worried that 64 00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 2: because inflation this last month was actually higher than a 65 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 2: year ago, and they're worried inflation is going to go 66 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:43,760 Speaker 2: up if we do another interest rate cut. That and 67 00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 2: so I'm not jazzed about this interest rate cut because 68 00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,720 Speaker 2: I'm more worried about inflation than a quarter a point 69 00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 2: on my credit card. 70 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,920 Speaker 1: Right, I would agree, I would agree things. 71 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 2: And I don't know how many speeches it will take 72 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,680 Speaker 2: to turn the tide to public perception out you know, 73 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 2: people's pocket books.

I think everybody's 349 00:17:48,880 --> 00:17:56,160 Speaker 2: aware that the omnipresence of screens is really impacted humankind, 350 00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:58,959 Speaker 2: especially the young, and we're trying to figure out what 351 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,840 Speaker 2: to do with it and how to minimize the harm. 352 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 2: It's kind of interesting that so clearly it's a topic 353 00:18:05,240 --> 00:18:07,159 Speaker 2: people think about a lot, parents think about a lot, 354 00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:07,879 Speaker 2: are worried about. 355 00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:10,680 Speaker 1: Yet we haven't done this or anything. 356 00:18:12,680 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. The beauty of having a smaller country 357 00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 2: is it's almost like an individual state does that hardangers 358 00:18:23,520 --> 00:18:25,879 Speaker 2: is that of benefit? Well, in fact, there's in certainly, 359 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:30,159 Speaker 2: but you can experiment like a state would. But it 360 00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 2: has the weight of the nation of Australia when you 361 00:18:34,359 --> 00:18:36,800 Speaker 2: know how many what's the population of Australia, like four 362 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty people, six seven hundred people. Yeah, so 363 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:43,240 Speaker 2: it gets a lot of attention because it's a country. 364 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 2: Blah blah blah. So anyway, on a more serious note, 365 00:18:48,040 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 2: here's what you need to know about at thirty Michael. 366 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,679 Speaker 7: It's an Australia to social media ban for all children 367 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:58,920 Speaker 7: under sixteen, the first of its kind, Australia's Prime Minister 368 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 7: saying the band is aimed at protecting children, supporting families. 369 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 7: Social media companies calling the ban misguided. 370 00:19:05,760 --> 00:19:06,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, sure they are. 371 00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 2: The population of Australia is twenty seven million people, significantly 372 00:19:10,400 --> 00:19:11,720 Speaker 2: smaller than Caliborn. 373 00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:16,159 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and way more kangaroos. 374 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,640 Speaker 2: Let's see well, why not, let's turn to the lead 375 00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:21,879 Speaker 2: clip number thirty one. 376 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,280 Speaker 8: State laws are sort of all over the map. Nebraska 377 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:28,520 Speaker 8: requires social media platforms to verify the ages of users 378 00:19:28,520 --> 00:19:32,320 Speaker 8: and get parental consent for miners to create new accounts. Utah, 379 00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:36,320 Speaker 8: Texas Louisiana are requiring app stores to verify users ages 380 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 8: and get parental consent for new downloads. New York is 381 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,720 Speaker 8: banning what it calls addictive social media feeds. But I 382 00:19:42,800 --> 00:19:45,760 Speaker 8: do think that we'll see both US states and other 383 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:49,400 Speaker 8: jurisdictions around the world watching what happens with this Australia 384 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 8: ban and crucially how affective this law is at actually 385 00:19:53,240 --> 00:19:55,200 Speaker 8: keeping teens off of these platforms. 386 00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 2: Okay, so there's something I didn't know. So no, we're 387 00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:59,920 Speaker 2: already doing it in the United States. Nebraska is doing it, 388 00:20:00,119 --> 00:20:02,440 Speaker 2: and then there's other versions in other states. 389 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:05,840 Speaker 1: Right right, let's see. 390 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 2: So the thing I don't know that I brought up 391 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 2: yesterday is does Australia have more control over their Internet 392 00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:16,959 Speaker 2: than the United States does over theirs? You know, in 393 00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 2: reading about this, I don't actually know the answer to 394 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:24,280 Speaker 2: that question, but everybody's admitting that. Look, well, for instance, 395 00:20:24,320 --> 00:20:28,199 Speaker 2: the Prime Minister said he's under. Anthony Albanize is his name. 396 00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:30,560 Speaker 2: He says he's under no illusions. The teenage social media 397 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:31,840 Speaker 2: use will be curbed overnight. 398 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:34,359 Speaker 1: Quote. This won't be perfect, just like chances are. 399 00:20:34,440 --> 00:20:37,119 Speaker 2: Last night somewhere in Australia, someone under eighteen got a 400 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,520 Speaker 2: drink in a pub. That's the legal drinking age in Australia. 401 00:20:41,720 --> 00:20:44,639 Speaker 2: But he said the government expects compliance. This is the law. 402 00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,200 Speaker 2: The banned platforms are heavily used by Australian teens. Facebook, Instagram, 403 00:20:49,359 --> 00:20:53,560 Speaker 2: kick Reddit, snapchat, threads, TikTok, twitch x and YouTube. 404 00:20:54,880 --> 00:20:55,040 Speaker 1: Uh. 405 00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,520 Speaker 2: The companies are now required to take reasonable steps to 406 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:02,639 Speaker 2: enforce the new rules under threat of penalty. Parents and 407 00:21:02,720 --> 00:21:08,280 Speaker 2: children won't be fined for using the apps. A tech 408 00:21:08,320 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 2: company said they'd comply with the band. Some began deactivating 409 00:21:11,200 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 2: accounts before the law came into effect. Several others said 410 00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:16,560 Speaker 2: they began notifying users believed to be under sixteen that 411 00:21:16,600 --> 00:21:19,880 Speaker 2: they need to verify their agents identification or by providing 412 00:21:19,880 --> 00:21:23,080 Speaker 2: a selfie for facial analysis. I'm not sure if I 413 00:21:23,160 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 2: understand the definition of social media since they throw in 414 00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 2: YouTube often. 415 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,400 Speaker 1: Are you yeah commenting on your friends? 416 00:21:33,720 --> 00:21:38,840 Speaker 2: I mean, I definitely understand like how Facebook is social media. 417 00:21:39,240 --> 00:21:43,400 Speaker 2: YouTube shorts is a lot like TikTok even that even 418 00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:46,400 Speaker 2: I don't know, I'm lost because I don't do these things. 419 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:49,800 Speaker 2: How is that in what senses that social media that 420 00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:51,080 Speaker 2: is damaging to kids? 421 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:52,000 Speaker 1: Well? 422 00:21:53,440 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 2: I always understand Facebook because I always picture like Facebook 423 00:21:57,119 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 2: where they've got a post with I don't know, there's 424 00:22:01,640 --> 00:22:04,680 Speaker 2: like a a high school group where all the cool 425 00:22:04,680 --> 00:22:08,080 Speaker 2: people are commenting on everything all the time, and if 426 00:22:08,119 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 2: you're not in the in group, you're feeling out and 427 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:13,120 Speaker 2: they're making fun of you or whatever. But I can't 428 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,000 Speaker 2: picture that how that works on Instagram or YouTube. Katie's young, 429 00:22:16,000 --> 00:22:16,520 Speaker 2: maybe you can. 430 00:22:16,800 --> 00:22:17,040 Speaker 1: Well. 431 00:22:17,480 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 5: With Instagram, YouTube and TikTok, you can not only post 432 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,000 Speaker 5: your own content, but you can repost other people's content 433 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,400 Speaker 5: and then get feedback from other people, so that turns 434 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:28,800 Speaker 5: it into a social media platform. 435 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:31,720 Speaker 1: So you can comment and so people are reading the comments. Enough. 436 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:35,480 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I think you're fixating on one aspect of 437 00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:41,640 Speaker 2: Internet life to the exclusion of endlessly scrolling short videos 438 00:22:41,680 --> 00:22:45,439 Speaker 2: and having your brain termed to mush, because a lot 439 00:22:45,480 --> 00:22:48,240 Speaker 2: of parents are as concerned about that as cyber bullying 440 00:22:48,320 --> 00:22:52,439 Speaker 2: or sextortion. Maybe that's just everything online, isn't it. I 441 00:22:52,440 --> 00:22:53,800 Speaker 2: mean absolutely everything. 442 00:22:54,359 --> 00:22:55,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I would agree. 443 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, the terms often does that with basketball highlights, I 444 00:22:58,040 --> 00:22:59,160 Speaker 2: mean everything. 445 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:02,520 Speaker 5: Of these apps also have a messaging feature as well, 446 00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:04,440 Speaker 5: so you can contact users directly. 447 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:08,800 Speaker 2: In Australia, many parents are on board. We are pretty 448 00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:11,639 Speaker 2: overjoyed about it, said Staff, a high school teacher in 449 00:23:11,680 --> 00:23:14,840 Speaker 2: rural Victoria who has two children. He started a group 450 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:19,159 Speaker 2: that encourages parents to delay giving young people smartphones. On 451 00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 2: it goes so now, I think would be a perfectly 452 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 2: appropriate time to my point of a second or two ago. 453 00:23:25,720 --> 00:23:28,560 Speaker 2: This is a doctor by the name of Victoria Dunkley 454 00:23:29,040 --> 00:23:32,800 Speaker 2: I'm talking about well. I think she explains herself pretty 455 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:33,800 Speaker 2: well in thirty three Michael. 456 00:23:34,040 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 9: No matter what they come in with, whether it's depression, anxiety, 457 00:23:36,880 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 9: ADHD or whatever their complaints are, the first thing we 458 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:42,680 Speaker 9: do is just take them off all screens for four 459 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:46,199 Speaker 9: weeks and then see what's left. So their symptoms might 460 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,239 Speaker 9: disappear completely. Other kids, you know there are symptoms might 461 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 9: be cut down and they still might have a diagnosis, 462 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 9: but they are functioning much better, and a lot of 463 00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 9: times we can get away with not using medication, especially 464 00:23:57,080 --> 00:23:59,600 Speaker 9: for younger kids. You can see results really within a 465 00:23:59,640 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 9: few days. 466 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:02,880 Speaker 1: But even with teams physically change. 467 00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,320 Speaker 9: Yes, they start going to bed earlier, their mood is better. 468 00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:11,080 Speaker 9: Parents report that they are more engaged, they come out 469 00:24:11,080 --> 00:24:13,879 Speaker 9: of the room more, they're happier. So a lot of 470 00:24:13,880 --> 00:24:17,159 Speaker 9: these symptoms that look like they have ADHD or anxiety 471 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 9: or depression go away completely. 472 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:25,320 Speaker 2: That is highly, highly troubling, it is, and yet it 473 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 2: is in a way good news. It's like we've figured 474 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:33,000 Speaker 2: out why kids are dying of polio, and now we've 475 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 2: just got. 476 00:24:33,359 --> 00:24:35,480 Speaker 1: To come up with a vaccine, for instance. 477 00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 2: And I harken back to a story we were talking 478 00:24:38,040 --> 00:24:40,879 Speaker 2: about yesterday when we were discussing education in general and 479 00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 2: how miserably failing it is in the United States. Government 480 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:46,720 Speaker 2: schools ought to be torn down to the studs. Anyway, 481 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 2: this study that showed the more time students spent on 482 00:24:51,160 --> 00:24:55,679 Speaker 2: screens at school, the further their scores fell, and from 483 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:58,040 Speaker 2: zero hours a day to one minute to one hour, 484 00:24:58,119 --> 00:24:59,600 Speaker 2: one to two hours, two to four hours, four to 485 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 2: six hours, six hours, et cetera. This is at school 486 00:25:02,680 --> 00:25:08,399 Speaker 2: schools that used high tech educational tools, and it. 487 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 1: Is absolutely. 488 00:25:11,000 --> 00:25:16,440 Speaker 2: Uniformly clear the more screen time, the lower the scores. 489 00:25:16,920 --> 00:25:20,080 Speaker 2: Here's the graph in math, here's the graph in science. 490 00:25:20,119 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 2: Here's the reading scores. They're all exactly the same. And 491 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:28,159 Speaker 2: they describe, as we mentioned yesterday, that the kids just 492 00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:32,720 Speaker 2: don't focus this. It's like they're watching a really boring 493 00:25:32,800 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 2: YouTube video and they're they're not into it. 494 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:37,080 Speaker 1: I wonder if they don't get any work done. 495 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:39,159 Speaker 2: I wonder if it matters what you're watching on the 496 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:41,320 Speaker 2: screen though, as opposed to just calling anything on a 497 00:25:41,359 --> 00:25:45,480 Speaker 2: screen screen time. Because I watched a lot of TV 498 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 2: in my life, my ability to pay attention didn't go away. 499 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 2: Like when I was twenty five years old and I 500 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,119 Speaker 2: was watching lots of TV, I couldn't. 501 00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,520 Speaker 1: It didn't. It didn't affect my ability to read a book. 502 00:25:56,680 --> 00:25:57,400 Speaker 1: The stuff I do. 503 00:25:57,480 --> 00:26:00,359 Speaker 2: Now looking at a screen does affect my lady to 504 00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:05,119 Speaker 2: read a book. There's something different. Uh, yeah, you know. 505 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 2: Some of the science behind this is crazy interesting. They 506 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:11,840 Speaker 2: mentioned that when you read a real book, a physical 507 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:15,880 Speaker 2: book of read from paper, each word occupies a fixed 508 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,520 Speaker 2: physical location. They say, if you're reading a punt out 509 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:22,240 Speaker 2: of this piece right now, this sentence exists right here, 510 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,160 Speaker 2: and this spatial position becomes part of the memory. 511 00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:27,000 Speaker 1: You're forming. 512 00:26:27,880 --> 00:26:30,320 Speaker 2: This is why readers often remember where in a book 513 00:26:30,359 --> 00:26:33,479 Speaker 2: an idea appeared, even if they couldn't recall the exact wording. 514 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:35,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's you know, that's interesting. 515 00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 2: That's one of the things I don't like about the 516 00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:41,800 Speaker 2: kindle experience. I don't have that as well. Uh, remembering 517 00:26:41,880 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 2: where in a book to find something. Yeah, when I 518 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 2: read this, it was like a light bulb going on 519 00:26:47,680 --> 00:26:51,080 Speaker 2: in my head, because it's absolutely true. If I am 520 00:26:51,160 --> 00:26:54,560 Speaker 2: trying to remember an idea or a specific quote or 521 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 2: a dramatic passage of a book, I can see physically 522 00:26:59,240 --> 00:27:01,520 Speaker 2: where it is in the thickness of the book roughly 523 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 2: and where that stuff was on the page. It had 524 00:27:04,480 --> 00:27:06,879 Speaker 2: never even dawned on me that that was part of 525 00:27:06,920 --> 00:27:08,120 Speaker 2: the memory, but it's clearly true. 526 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:09,520 Speaker 1: There's more on this in a moment or two. 527 00:27:09,560 --> 00:27:12,080 Speaker 2: Unless you force people, there's no way you're gonna bring 528 00:27:12,119 --> 00:27:14,640 Speaker 2: back paper books. And we need to force them, Jack, 529 00:27:14,720 --> 00:27:18,000 Speaker 2: We need to force people to read physical books so 530 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 2: we don't lose our freedom.

I feel like with 557 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:35,359 Speaker 1: this conversation you need to discuss. 558 00:28:36,720 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 2: Realistic attempts to change things back or maybe I'm wrong, 559 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 2: Maybe maybe you can make crazy, violent, sweeping changes if 560 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:52,720 Speaker 2: the laws are strict enough, rules are stricted off. This 561 00:28:52,920 --> 00:28:55,680 Speaker 2: is the disagreement we have. It's not a disagreement, it's 562 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 2: just a different difference in point of view every time 563 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:01,080 Speaker 2: we talk about this stuff. I'm just I just care 564 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 2: about individuals, about myself and people I care about, and 565 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:10,120 Speaker 2: people listening right now, societal change is so beyond anything 566 00:29:10,160 --> 00:29:13,480 Speaker 2: I can accomplish. I just you're right about your pessimism 567 00:29:13,520 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 2: one hundred percent, right. I just think since I can't 568 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 2: accomplish that, I'm going to try to accomplish this. I mean, 569 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:23,120 Speaker 2: could you ever I could see this happening. I could 570 00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 2: see us deciding that getting a smartphone. 571 00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,800 Speaker 1: Before you're eighteen is just a bad idea. 572 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:32,400 Speaker 2: And my kids, my especially my oldest, wouldn't need a 573 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:36,240 Speaker 2: smartphone if all his friends didn't have a smartphone, your kid, 574 00:29:36,320 --> 00:29:39,120 Speaker 2: if all your if your kid's friends have a smartphone 575 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 2: and they don't it's it's a great disadvantage. 576 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,200 Speaker 1: Oh sure, I understand that. Yeah, but if. 577 00:29:45,120 --> 00:29:47,280 Speaker 2: None of them had it, I mean we all lived 578 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,240 Speaker 2: without them. Fine, we figured out a way where to 579 00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:53,160 Speaker 2: meet Friday night at seven o'clock. Somehow we got the 580 00:29:53,160 --> 00:29:57,959 Speaker 2: word out. Yeah, yeah, agreed. It would become like you know, 581 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 2: you'd hear your your neighbor gave your kid bottle of 582 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:01,600 Speaker 2: whiskey and the keys to the car. 583 00:30:01,640 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: You think they're insane. 584 00:30:02,640 --> 00:30:07,200 Speaker 2: It could happen so societally, I'm not optimistic. But so anyway, 585 00:30:07,240 --> 00:30:09,440 Speaker 2: back to the science of this stuff, which is so interesting. 586 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 2: You remember where in a book an idea appeared, even 587 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:14,880 Speaker 2: if you can't recall the exact wording, But digital text 588 00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:17,360 Speaker 2: has no such stability. If you're scrolling through the piece 589 00:30:17,840 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 2: that I'm reading right now from on a computer phone, 590 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,479 Speaker 2: the sentence first appeared at the bottom, Now it's near 591 00:30:22,520 --> 00:30:24,360 Speaker 2: the middle, a little soon vanish out of the top, 592 00:30:24,400 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 2: et cetera. And with no fixed location for ideas to 593 00:30:27,080 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 2: attach to a spatial scaffold that supports memory collapses. As 594 00:30:31,640 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 2: a result, reading from screens often triggers an unconscious shift 595 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 2: from deep comprehension to shallow skimming, which they can see 596 00:30:40,920 --> 00:30:46,520 Speaker 2: with scientific methods of watching your eyeballs, which is glancing, scrolling, 597 00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:50,680 Speaker 2: and extracting instead of truly reading, and they illustrate it visually. 598 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: I don't know if I believe this. Are you arguing 599 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: with science? Well? 600 00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:58,920 Speaker 2: I know, specifically, I could call her if I wanted 601 00:30:58,960 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 2: to a neuros scientist with a PhD who claims the 602 00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 2: science says there's no difference between reading on a reading 603 00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,280 Speaker 2: a kindle book or reading a regular book and the 604 00:31:10,320 --> 00:31:13,240 Speaker 2: way you take in the information and absorb it. It 605 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 2: doesn't mean they're right, but I just intuitively I believe that. 606 00:31:16,840 --> 00:31:19,560 Speaker 2: Certainly I could, like I said, I recognize the part 607 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 2: of I don't remember wearing a. 608 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,240 Speaker 1: Book, so that's something. But I don't know if I 609 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 1: don't know. 610 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:25,760 Speaker 2: I've read a lot of books both ways, and I 611 00:31:25,800 --> 00:31:27,160 Speaker 2: just don't know if I feel like I'm getting a 612 00:31:27,200 --> 00:31:28,120 Speaker 2: lesser experience. 613 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 1: Yeah. 614 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,760 Speaker 2: They cite the fact that this exam, the PISA exam, 615 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 2: what is that it's an acronym. Clearly okay, so reading 616 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:41,120 Speaker 2: Comprehension exam. The scores dropped so sharply after the test 617 00:31:41,160 --> 00:31:43,400 Speaker 2: moved online, and it's why the SAT when it went 618 00:31:43,480 --> 00:31:49,480 Speaker 2: digital in twenty twenty four quietly redefined reading comprehension altogether. Well, 619 00:31:49,520 --> 00:31:52,400 Speaker 2: you know, it's interesting as I'm arguing this because, like 620 00:31:52,560 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 2: much to our executive producer Mike Hanson's dismay, I like 621 00:31:55,960 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 2: everything printed out on paper. 622 00:31:57,680 --> 00:31:59,760 Speaker 1: I don't like going to a screen to get all 623 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:01,880 Speaker 1: of our show stuff. I hate it. 624 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:04,280 Speaker 2: I hate looking at a screen and having it there. 625 00:32:04,280 --> 00:32:06,640 Speaker 2: I just like it physically, knowing where it is and 626 00:32:06,800 --> 00:32:09,000 Speaker 2: organizing it that way. It's easier for me to organize 627 00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:12,560 Speaker 2: in my mind physically than you know, something on a 628 00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 2: computer screen. So I don't know, no, no, And I'm 629 00:32:17,600 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 2: all for science digging into this stuff. And heck you 630 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 2: think it's a it's an understanding you. Okay, you need 631 00:32:23,120 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 2: to take a break. Mail bag coming up in moments. 632 00:32:24,920 --> 00:32:31,400 Speaker 1: Awesome, stay tuned. Yeah, we'll talk more about this later. 633 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 1: But if you wonder if. 634 00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,680 Speaker 2: Your kid's addicted to a phone, if they have a phone, 635 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:36,400 Speaker 2: take it away from them for a while and see 636 00:32:36,400 --> 00:32:41,200 Speaker 2: how they act. That's classic addiction behavior. Aha, my boothe 637 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,600 Speaker 2: my mad like my phone even five minutes. Yeah maybe, 638 00:32:44,680 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 2: all right, more on this to come. There's a lot 639 00:32:46,160 --> 00:32:48,160 Speaker 2: to say. Here's your freedom loving quote of the day. 640 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 2: It's a little longish. 641 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 1: Maybe we'll get to mailbag next hour. 642 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:54,160 Speaker 2: I don't know. Uh, it's Joe Raffiti wrote this. He's 643 00:32:54,200 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 2: an academic of some sort. But I absolutely love this. 644 00:32:56,440 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 2: And I can't remember if I've read this before, but 645 00:32:58,720 --> 00:32:59,920 Speaker 2: if I did, it's in the wrong file. 646 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:01,000 Speaker 1: You're gonna hear it again. 647 00:33:02,240 --> 00:33:07,680 Speaker 2: Socialists perform compassion, capitalists live it. That probably sounds insane 648 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:09,400 Speaker 2: to people who've been in doctor Nadan to believe that 649 00:33:09,480 --> 00:33:11,920 Speaker 2: caring means redistributing wealth by force. 650 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:13,240 Speaker 1: But here's the reality. 651 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:17,400 Speaker 2: Capitalism requires you to care about other people's needs. It 652 00:33:17,480 --> 00:33:20,560 Speaker 2: asks of you, what problems can I solve? What value 653 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,560 Speaker 2: can I create? What do people actually want and need? 654 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:27,040 Speaker 2: Your success is directly tied to how well you serve others. 655 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:29,840 Speaker 2: You can't force people to buy from you, you can't 656 00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:32,000 Speaker 2: coerce them into using your product or service. 657 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. 658 00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,920 Speaker 2: I think the problem is socialism sort of promises there 659 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 2: won't be losers. Capitalism sort of guarantees there will be 660 00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:47,200 Speaker 2: winners and losers. Yeah, Socialism is a is a philosophy 661 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 2: for children and those who have yet to grow up 662 00:33:52,160 --> 00:33:53,720 Speaker 2: and recognize the way. 663 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:54,520 Speaker 1: Human beings really are. 664 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 2: Mail Bag drops note mail bag at Armstrong and giddy 665 00:33:56,920 --> 00:34:01,160 Speaker 2: dot com Ah, Aaron Wright's Colonial is a good thing. 666 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 2: Look at this. There are thousands of videos from various 667 00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:07,760 Speaker 2: s whole countries where young men are exhuming old graves 668 00:34:07,920 --> 00:34:10,200 Speaker 2: for clicks and Facebook reels. 669 00:34:10,640 --> 00:34:11,600 Speaker 1: This must stop. 670 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:16,960 Speaker 2: Oh my Internet viral ghoulishness tagging up graves. I hadn't 671 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,240 Speaker 2: heard this, messing with the bones whatever. 672 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's the worst thing I've ever heard. 673 00:34:23,360 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: Stay tuned. I got to look into that. 674 00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:32,799 Speaker 2: Let's see non binary WTF Alonymous wrikes. A friend of 675 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:34,799 Speaker 2: mine was purchasing a gun and filling out the federal 676 00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 2: background check. You noticed that for gender they had three 677 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:40,480 Speaker 2: options male, female, and non binary. Hoping they're using this 678 00:34:40,520 --> 00:34:42,680 Speaker 2: to weed out anyone who checks non binary, because if 679 00:34:42,719 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 2: you don't know what your sex is, there's not a 680 00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:45,959 Speaker 2: chance in hell you used to be allowed to buy 681 00:34:45,960 --> 00:34:46,400 Speaker 2: a gun. 682 00:34:46,719 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 1: Tell Trump to fix this. I will talk to him. 683 00:34:51,080 --> 00:34:55,439 Speaker 1: Tell Trump to fix this. Well To I saved this one. 684 00:34:55,440 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 1: I got this a couple of days ago. To I 685 00:34:56,840 --> 00:34:57,000 Speaker 1: liked it. 686 00:34:57,080 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 2: JT and Livermore says, I'm not against the notion of 687 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:03,919 Speaker 2: ap doom metric. That's your percentage you think AI will 688 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:07,719 Speaker 2: doom humanity, he says, but I also want to pair 689 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 2: it with the P salvation number. Sure, a superintelligence would 690 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:14,080 Speaker 2: be something new and unproven, could go paar shape for mankind. 691 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:16,400 Speaker 2: But it isn't as if we're one hundred percent shape 692 00:35:16,640 --> 00:35:18,920 Speaker 2: shape safe if AGI is never built. Look at all 693 00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:20,799 Speaker 2: the great threats that might happen if we never built 694 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:25,480 Speaker 2: the AGI nukes in all their forms, bioweapons, super volcano eruptions, 695 00:35:25,520 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 2: economic collapse, climate apocalypse, smad Mark Zuckerberg, Democrat policies, sex robots, 696 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 2: good list. Maybe having an AGI is the only way 697 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 2: to deal with some or all of the pending disasters. 698 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:38,680 Speaker 2: So when you tell me your p DO number P 699 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:41,719 Speaker 2: doom number, also tell me the percentage likelihood that an 700 00:35:41,760 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 2: AGI would be necessary to solve protect us from things 701 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:46,719 Speaker 2: too complicated or too difficult for us to solve on 702 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:52,400 Speaker 2: our own aka r P salvation number. Interesting, great thought, 703 00:35:53,080 --> 00:35:57,120 Speaker 2: really interesting. Let's see we got thirty seconds. Oh dang, 704 00:35:57,160 --> 00:36:02,400 Speaker 2: it got a great baby vax email from a loyal 705 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:06,520 Speaker 2: listener sleep listen, Danville.
