Good morning everybody and welcome to Coffee with Scott Adams, the finest time of the weekend and every other day too. If you'd like this experience, which is already extraordinary, to go to levels that nobody can even understand with their small human brains, you need AI for that. And I'm not talking about large language models. You'd need AI for that. Or alternately all you need is a ceramic glass, a tankard, a chalice, a jug or flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure, the dopamine hit of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip and it happens now.

Ah, very good. Well the news is not super interesting today so I'm just going to add jokes to all of it. Is that okay? I'll just add jokes to all of the news if I have any. Well they don't. They're not all jokes. Let's see. We'll start with Matthew Perry. We know what happened to him now. It was a ketamine overdose which apparently caused him to lose consciousness and then I guess he slipped into his hot tub. So did anybody have drug overdose as their bet? I have to admit I was thinking it was fentanyl but it could have been anything. So I've never heard of ketamine. Well I don't know if it's an overdose but if he had not been in a hot tub he probably just would have passed out and awakened. So yeah it's more about the drowning than the overdose. Correct.

Well there's a brand new digital girlfriend app. Digi is the company, digi.ai, and it's sort of cartoon looking but it's sort of like Jessica Rabbit. You know, kind of an attractive cartoon looking character. And I don't know why people are excited about it but it got a lot of attention today. And I'm going to ask you this. Tell me in the comments. I happen to know that my audience includes a lot of people who don't spend time with other people. Would you use a digital companion? How many of you, if you're willing to admit it, how many of you are willing to use a digital companion?

Now the ones who are saying no, I feel like you have to establish your human bona fides or something. It's like no I would never do that. Do you know what this feels like? This feels like 1985 when you ask somebody if they look at porn. Does anybody, is anybody old enough to remember that? In 1985 if you said hey do you look at porn what would people say? No. No. What? Why would you even ask that? Who looks at porn besides like creepy perverts? I don't need it. I don't need it. I don't need any porn. Not me. I don't even know why you're asking that question. Why are you looking at me? Why would you even ask me that question?

And then you fast forward to the 2000s. Do you look at porn? Yeah I really love the stuff. Am I right? You get a completely different answer in the 2000s than you did in the 80s. Very different. So I just asked this question. How many of you would consider having an AI companion? And people are like no no no no no no no way. There's no way you're going to get me with an AI companion. Well let me check back with you in about 20 years. Maybe 40. Yeah I think at least half of you who said no way will indeed have digital companions. That's my prediction.

I don't think this technology is quite there but I'm going to tell you something without too much detail. Yesterday I sampled, I'm going to be very vague here so don't ask me for details. I'm vague intentionally for your benefit. So this is vagueness for your benefit not mine. There is a digital product that I'm not going to describe that gives you the sensation of being with a human. And I tried it out yesterday and it's not porn. It's not porn. And my God. Oh my God it gives you an experience that I can't even explain.

Now so far the thing I'm talking about which is a digital product is not combined with AI. Can you guess what it is? The other thing is, yeah he probably can, but it's not porn. But when you combine it with AI it's going to blow your mind out and you don't see it coming. But I've experienced it so I can tell you that the empty feeling you get from looking at a cartoonish AI partner is going to be kind of bland and two-dimensional and it won't really have much impact on you. There won't be that many people who fall in love with a cartoon version of a person. But there's another level and the level that's coming is like a 100x times these little cartoony characters. Yeah there's something coming. You don't see it yet but you will.

Anyway Mickey Mouse is coming off copyright but not entirely. So I guess now the copyright laws protect some stuff for 95 years and the original Mickey Mouse animated Steamboat Willie, little black and white cartoon from 95 years ago, is just coming off copyright. So you can now legally create not the modern Mickey. So modern Mickey Mouse is still protected. I don't know how they get away with that but the original version, if you were to draw one just like that I think you could even call it Mickey Mouse. That part I don't know. Do they? Maybe a lawyer can tell me this. Are there any lawyers who are watching right now? But Mickey Mouse is probably trademarked so probably you could draw the character but you could not name it Mickey Mouse. Yeah I think that's correct. So it's not going to be that much impact on Disney so that it's not going to affect their stock price.

However there's a really good chance that the Dilbert character will have a new friend for Ratbert. So if you follow Dilbert you know Ratbert is one of the characters so he might get Mickey Mouse. Bird mouse. But it would have to be the Steamboat Willie version.

I saw Jesse Watters yesterday on Fox News talking about how we still don't have the Epstein flight logs and he was suggesting that the people not releasing them, you know, maybe have some culpability or why can't we see them. Now I agree that when it comes to the government you should expect the worst and assume the worst if there's no transparency. However I'm going to vigorously disagree with the public seeing Epstein's flight logs. Because do you believe that 100% of the people who went on Epstein's flights knew there was something wrong and knew that they were traveling with a bad guy? Or were they just rich people borrowing jets from other rich people? Oh my jet's going this way. You want to come along?

So I understand why the public is curious and I understand why you want to see it but to me this would be the height of improper behavior. That this would fly against everything that's American in my opinion. Everything American would be violated by throwing everybody on that flight log under the bus. Well let me ask you how many of you think that 100% of the people who are ever on his jet should be ostracized from human civilization? Because that's what would happen. Does anybody think that 100% of the people on the flights should be thrown under the bus? No. Well there's a yes. I think if you said yes you're a bad person. Honestly you're just a bad person and you're going to have to deal with that for the rest of your life but not my problem.

Here's what I think. I think when you're talking about individual American citizens they need to be innocent until proven guilty and being on a flight log, even Epstein's flight, does not prove he did anything wrong. And I am, unless I'm misunderstanding the issue here, maybe I am. If nobody has been accused of a specific crime that's their own business. That is their own private business and I'm sure they all regret that they got on that plane but it doesn't mean that they're guilty of any horrible crimes. So I absolutely disagree with Jesse Watters and anybody else who wants to see the flight logs. Are we curious? Yes. Yes very curious. Very curious. Should we see them? No. No I never want to see them.

And the reason is, just to be very clear, the reason is because individual citizens are innocent until proven guilty and there's no wiggle room on that. Like I realize this is not a trial but that's why I don't want to see them. You wouldn't want your privacy violated that way.

There's a novel method for uranium extraction from wastewater. How about that? Because we've got that uranium shortage. But it also generates electricity while you're doing it. Whoa. Whoa. Now a lot of you looked at me for your explanations how science works so I'd like to just explain to you in the simplest possible ways. I'm just going to keep this simple. Just a summary of how the technology works. All right so here's what you need to know. It's a spontaneous microbial electrochemical method. So that's the first thing you need to know. And what they do is they spatially decouple the microbial oxidation and the uranium reduction reactions and it's an innovation that what you do is you've got the two chambers separated by the proton exchange membrane. You got that right? And then obviously they're going to separate with a proton exchange membrane. Then you use an anode made of carbon felt and a cathode titanium foil and then the process uses that as I said, you know not to repeat myself, but the microbial driven electrochemical reaction and that facilitates sort of a uranium extraction from the wastewater which simultaneously generates the electricity.

Now you know what makes me a little bit angry about this? Well you and I thought of this idea but didn't do anything about it. So I guess that just tells you that life really rewards action. I mean I was just thinking about this and I'm like huh I wonder if I put two chambers separated by a proton exchange membrane and then introduced an anode made of carbon felt. So I was thinking about this the other day but I did nothing about it so I feel like an idiot now.

Well Elon Musk is always in the news and he's dumping on Disney lately. He said that Walt Disney might be turning in his grave because Disney is infected, deeply infected, infected with the woke mind virus. I think he's really trying to make that woke mind virus thing part of the common consciousness. I know a number of people used it before he did but he's really driving it home. And he says they used to bring joy to people's lives. Disney did. Making wonderful things their family enjoyed. But now it's just basically they're giving you woke garbage.

Speaking of woke garbage, did you know that roughly one third of adults under 30 regularly scroll TikTok for the news? So one third of young people are getting their news from TikTok. And there's a communications expert Molly McPherson who was at an Axios event and she said that the heartbeat of public opinion is TikTok. She's a crisis communication expert so she would know. And she says quote if you're not paying attention to that content then you're missing out because that's where the information and viral trends start. So viral trends start on TikTok. Do you realize what that means? Right? It means that China literally has a user interface on our reality. Because what Americans believe is what they gather from their media and social media is the main thing that's influencing the young people. And according to this communication expert Molly McPherson who's probably correct the viral stuff starts on TikTok and then nobody can ignore it. Like then it becomes our news.

So here's the path. The Chinese government owns ByteDance. ByteDance owns TikTok. TikTok has a button called heat that they can literally push to make something trend which they've admitted. I'm not making this up. TikTok says this. So the government can control the companies in China. That's normal business. They have an actual physical mechanism for making some things more viral than others. And now we know the rest of the picture. Viral things on TikTok become the news and then it becomes our consciousness. It's still legal and Congress still says yeah but you know free speech. There's no question whatsoever the Congress is bought off or corrupt because they couldn't be that stupid. Here I'm being kind. I cannot imagine that Congress is so stupid that they don't know how much of a risk this is. They can't be that stupid. So what's left? It's not a mistake because everybody's telling them. You know that they've engaged in the conversation so it's not a mistake. What could it be? There's only one thing left. Corruption. There's literally only one explanation. Corruption.

So anybody who's voting to keep TikTok legal, you know I will allow that for the Thomas Massie types who are absolutist about free speech. If you're an absolutist I'm going to give you a half a pass. Half a pass because I do appreciate consistency. That's worth something. But this is a national threat. This is not like a normal communication thing.

All right there's a new story about a quote missing binder. A 10-inch binder that disappeared at some time around the transition from Trump to Biden. This binder contains classified information related to the Russian collusion claims and apparently there was some thought that the real reason for the raid on Mar-a-Lago is to get that binder back. Now some say the binder might have too much information in it about sources and methods and that's why it's so critical to get it back. And they're thinking that maybe the information isn't terribly important but the sources and methods might be. Other people say that's exactly why Trump has it if he has it. There's no evidence that he has it but if he has it because apparently there was an effort to make it public information but there was a process, you know a lengthy process of redacting stuff that hadn't been completed.

So is there somewhere, does somebody have a binder that could be really really damaging to maybe some leadership of the FBI? Maybe not just sources and methods but maybe something embarrassing. Maybe. So we're only speculating because we don't know what's in it but maybe it had something to do with Mar-a-Lago raids. That's certainly not, I don't have any direct evidence of that. And maybe Trump had it specifically because they gave him some blackmail control over them. Maybe. But I don't have any evidence of that. So we don't have any evidence of who has it or what's in it or why we care but it's one of the big stories today. It's a big story. We literally don't know anything that's true. Just nothing. I don't know. Maybe it doesn't even exist.

All right here's an evergreen story that I keep going back to. As you know there appear to be continuing excess deaths well after the pandemic is over but the excess deaths weirdly seem to be concentrated in the young whereas old people are actually doing fine in terms of their death rate. Does that make sense to you that young people would have much higher death after the pandemic and old people would be doing maybe even better than normal? To me that makes perfect sense. I'm actually confused why it's confusing or why there's even any mystery to it at all. Let me explain.

Old people, all of the weak old people died early. That's it. The ones who would have maybe held on for a little bit longer, the COVID got them. And maybe the pandemic restrictions decreased their quality of life so much that they died a little early from that. So it makes sense that older people had some excess deaths and now we're just seeing the after effect of that. But how do you explain young people dying at an excess rate? Well when you read the stories about the young people dying at an excess rate does it tell you which category of death within that group of people is up? Which category? How can you read a story like this that says there's this mysterious and horrible, you know well over 100,000 deaths extra in young people where there should be not any deaths? Why isn't the most important part of the story what they're dying from? How is that not the most important part of the story?

So what do you conclude? What do you conclude from a national big story? The young people are dying too much and the story doesn't mention what they died from. Was it self violence? Was it an accident? Was it drug overdose? Was it heart attacks? What was it? But before you speculate about what it was deal with the first question. Why would there be a national story without breaking down the cause of death? How does that tell you anything?

I saw this from Pierre Kory. You know him from the pandemic. He was a rogue good doctor meaning that he was not agreeing with the consensus on vaccinations and such. Does it seem to you that somebody is trying to suggest that the vaccinations kill them? That's what I'm getting out of it because it was Pierre Kory who's talking about it and he's the one who says that the vaccinations are dangerous. But he doesn't complete the loop. He doesn't complete the loop and say the exact things that they're dying from are the exact things we'd worry about a vaccination having a side effect. You're saying yes he did but not in the article I saw. In the article I saw he speculated but he did not mention, the more recent stuff does not define the specific causes. Right now I have seen him say separately and before that myocarditis was higher in young people because of vaccinations. So I have heard that. But what the insurance companies are dealing with, you know these big excess deaths, they're not completing the loop. They're not saying that it seems heart related and heart related would be suggestive of maybe something that happened recently like vaccinations. No autopsies. Now when young people die unexpectedly don't they do autopsies? If a 15-year-old dies of a heart attack they don't check that out? I don't know exactly.

All right so here's what I make of it. I don't believe it. I first don't believe the numbers and then I secondly don't believe there isn't an obvious explanation for it because to me it seems like the suicides and the drug overdoses would be through the roof. And then I think something happened to all of us socially. Would you agree? How many of you feel socially damaged by the pandemic? I do. I feel permanently changed by the pandemic meaning that my social impulse is almost none. Almost none. Yeah yeah. So if I were a teen and I had my social impulse erased and I just lived online and watched porn all day and was on social media I don't know. Feels like that could kill you but I don't know what the cause is so I don't want to speculate too hard. It does seem like it might be a whole bunch of different things.

Elon Musk is going hard at DEI. He says DEI must die. In a separate, we had two posts on it. And he said the point was to end discrimination not replace it with different discrimination. Diversity, equity, inclusion are propaganda words for racism, sexism and other isms. And then later he said this is not just morally wrong as any other racism and sexism. Changing the target class doesn't make it right. So how much do you love the fact that Elon Musk is going hard at DEI and ESG and the other racist policies? I feel like we couldn't even have the conversation without him. How is he not a person of the year? Wasn't person of the year like Taylor Swift or something? Taylor Swift person of the year. Oh my God.

Anyway well by now you probably know that there was a staffer for Senator Cardin who is having some gay sex in what was it, some kind of Senate hearing room. Senate's large hearing room. So this is the same place that they've done Senate Supreme Court confirmations and impeachment proceedings and that sort of thing. And in the video that we see it's two men. One is taking the other from behind apparently. There's no word if they are colonizers. Colonizers. Other questions that we don't know is, is this the reason that the politicians like Schumer they keep telling the public that we don't want to know how the sausage is made? Now they've told us you don't want to know how the sausage is made. Were they referring to this? I don't know. Is this another case of we've always heard that the Senators are really interested in pork? I don't know if that's related in any way. But he's probably not the first person in the room ever to get some pork. And what I really wonder is were they filming it as sort of a skit for grade school? Were they making some content for the young people? No. Or was it just sex? It looked like they were making some kind of tutorial maybe for grade school. I don't know. I'm just guessing. I'm just guessing. I just watch the news like you do. I don't know. I don't know what was going on but yeah that's how the sausage was made.

All right let me say this. I don't want to see them get fired and I don't care. Right? All right let's be honest. Are we only caring because it was gay sex? Is that the only thing that made it news? If this had been heterosexual sex in the same room would anybody even be talking about it? You think you would but would we be talking about it the same way? Would it be funnier? No there there's something a little homophobic about the story that makes me uncomfortable. I like to laugh at the public sex stories but would it be funny if they were hetero? Oh it wouldn't be as funny. So I guess that's homophobic in a way. Anyway check your bigotry on that one.

Boston mayor had the so-called electeds of color dinner that went ahead and apparently the dinner just went ahead and they excluded white people and they were pretty happy about it. They seemed like they had a good time. But you know I tweeted yesterday that the public is waking up to 40 years of insane level of discrimination against white men and only this year can we say it out loud. So finally finally you can actually say but you know discrimination against white men at least in hiring in corporations has been far worse, far worse discrimination against any other group. Not even close. But you couldn't even say that without losing your career a few years ago. So I'm liking this free speech. It's kind of good stuff. Enjoying it.

IBM and Red Hat, I guess Red Hat's owned by IBM now. There was an internal document at Red Hat, an anti-white document that's apparently still current. James Lindsay got a hold of this from his whistleblowers. And it says there are Ten Commandments that white people have to observe. The allyship commandments. So it's how to be a good white person in Red Hat. And one commandment states only white people can be racist. Another one is that accept that white people are responsible for dismantling racism. And then another section argues that whiteness constructs the game, hides the rules and then rigs the game over and over again. So basically it's just racist anti-white stuff in IBM. So IBM is a racist organization. Super racist. And it's overt. It's not hidden. They are overtly and in public super racist against white people. So there's that.

Now people keep telling me I should be concerned about things that happened a long time ago. For example people are trying to double down on IBM by saying that IBM in World War II may have helped Hitler organize the death camps or something. Maybe it's true maybe it's not. I don't give a what IBM did with a bunch of dead people 50, 75 years ago whatever it is. I do not care what they did then. I totally care what they're doing now. What they're doing now is really really bad. But I don't care what they did then because all those people are dead. There's nobody to answer for it. They're all dead. I don't care. You know I don't care that Volkswagen was Hitler's car. Hitler's dead. All the people who made those decisions all dead. I can just drive a Volkswagen if I like it. I'm allowed. It's not my preferred car but I used to have one. And I certainly don't care which political parties started the KKK. Can you stop forwarding me it was the Democrats that created the KKK? I don't care. I don't care. They're all dead. Every one of them is dead. Don't care. If the KKK got some traction today well I'd care about that because that's today. I don't care about the dead ones.

I also don't care what happened in the Middle East before October 7th and you can't make me care. You can try. I don't care. I don't care. I can tell you that Israel certainly has to do what they need to do because of October 7th. That's easy. That one you know straightforward. But before that are you going to get me to say who was the worst? Oh but 500 years ago this side was the worst. But 600 years ago this side was the worst. And a thousand years ago we used to live there. I don't give a. I care that one side has a big army so they can protect the land that they say is theirs. The reality of Israel is that if they have a military and enough military support well I guess it's their land. I don't care what happened 3,000 years ago anyway. You can care but stop trying to make me care because it won't work.

I'd like to give a shout out just because I think it's good form. I've tried to teach you this many times. If you can't say something good about the people who are on the other side of a debate then maybe you're not being as objective as you think you are. So as just sort of a good hygiene for my brain if I see somebody on the opposite side from my opinion who's doing something worthy I'd like to call it out. And I think I've made as much fun of John Fetterman as anybody in the public domain but he's apparently wants to be very tough on immigration laws and I'm sorry I got to say I really respect that. Because it's easy to be a Republican and say you agree with the Republicans. It's tough to be John Fetterman with everything he's gone through. You know the heat that he had on him especially with his health situation and to get to the end of that and start to function the way he'd like to or closer to it and to disagree with your party on something so basic. But his disagreement is based on being a reasonable person in the real world and I can totally support a reasonable person in the real world. So Fetterman, good job. Good job. I might have other criticisms later but I don't want to do the I disagree with you on these other things. Let me just say good job on this.

All right well still watching the Trump Thanos threat. Thanos being the Marvel superhero villain who could snap his fingers once his bejeweled glove had all of the jewels in it. He would snap his fingers and half of all the people on Earth would die. So here's what I don't understand about the Democrats. On one hand they're very afraid that Trump will get into office and half the people in the country will die or the world I guess. On the other hand that would solve climate change am I right? Turns out there's only one politician who has an actual solution to climate change. Trump. According to Democrats he will snap his bejeweled glove and half of the world will die instantly then no problem. You can have all the energy you need. Yeah so I think they're not looking on the good side of this whole Trump as Thanos stuff but I would encourage you to keep mocking it. Yeah don't argue it. Mock it. Yeah that's right he's Thanos. He's gonna kill everybody snapping his glove finger just like he did the first time he was president. You remember that right when half of the people died? I'm pretty sure every Democrat said that was going to happen so I guess they did.

Meanwhile Rudy Giuliani lost in court. So I guess the two Georgia election workers, you remember one of them named Ruby and many of you said incorrectly it turns out there is a video of Ruby cheating with these ballots and pulling them out from underneath that table and running them through the counting machine twice and you can see it right on the video. You said and I said I see it and you said it's right there it's right in front of you and then I watched it and I said why don't I see it? How come I'm not seeing it? And then I saw a video of election experts who knew how things should have worked who watched it and they said okay that's just normal. They just had some stuff they put on the table to keep it out of the way. They took it out and they finished it. That's just the normal stuff.

Now apparently Giuliani was not allowed to show any evidence for his side. Now why would you have a court situation where you're not allowed to show any evidence for your side? Well apparently there was some information that the other side wanted from Giuliani. They refused to give him some digital records and because he was not playing well with the court the court said look you either have to accept the process or you're guilty. So he did not accept the process by giving them the information they requested. So it looks like the court said all right you know have it your way. If you're not going to give us the information you're guilty by almost by definition or by process. So now we're going to talk about how much you owe and they decided that what he owed was 148 million dollars. 148 million. Does that sound anywhere in the neighborhood of a reasonable thing? Because remember Ruby was subjected to much harassment which is real. Don't make light of that. That was real. And probably death threats. I think she got death threats. That's a serious issue. But there are very few problems that can't be solved with 14 million. But I also think that 14 million might have solved most of her problems as well. She could have done okay with 14 million I think. So I guess it's so high because the jurors were considering like the penalty part not just what she would need to be whole but a penalty phase. Of course this will be appealed. Who knows what will happen. I'd be kind of surprised if some future court doesn't throw it out or at least knock down the award.

But I would say that if anybody had the goods on Ruby don't you think you'd know it by now? If anybody in an official capacity or let's say Giuliani himself had the goods. In other words if he could produce an expert who would watch the video of Ruby and say okay here's my expert don't listen to me listen to the expert and the expert says oh no you can clearly see something wrong. But where is that one person who understands the process watching the video telling the rest of us oh yeah here's where the crime was committed right here? I haven't seen that. So from the beginning I thought she was probably doing just her job and was not guilty of anything. Remember I told you early on that 95% of all the claims of rigging would not be true even if some of them turned out to be true.

So let me ask you given that you have never seen somebody who knows what they're talking about watch the video and point out that there's nothing wrong with it or that there is something wrong with it. Nobody's pointing out that there is something wrong with it while they're watching the video. I haven't seen it. So how many of you think that Ruby is guilty of rigging the election in the comments? How many of you think she's guilty? I'm seeing mixed answers. Yeah you know what I'm going to say right? Can you anticipate what I'm going to say? You know there's no legal process against her right? There is no legal process investigating Ruby. You know why? Because a cursory investigation shows nothing was wrong. You didn't even need to do a deep dive. They just took a quick look at it and said this is normal and that was it.

Now I know you're still suspicious because it's Georgia and you're like oh maybe the prosecutors in on it who knows. But let me say this about Ruby. She's not the government. Ruby is a citizen of the United States. Ruby is innocent unless somebody can prove her guilty and nobody's even trying because they got nothing. Ruby deserves probably an apology from a lot of people probably right now. Is there some chance that somebody is guilty in ways I don't know? Well it's always possible but the standard should be that it's been what two years now? How many years? I'm sorry it's almost four years. Three years. And in all that time in three years and she's totally on video you think in three years somebody whose alleged crime is on video there and there's no legal process against her that doesn't convince you that there was nothing there? It does to me. Yeah to me it convinces me nothing was there.

But let me clarify to make all of you happy. Let me clarify she's an American citizen. She's innocent 100% unless somebody has the goods on her in a legal process and nothing like that's happening. So I'm Team Ruby 100%. Same with Hunter. Hunter is innocent till some process proves him guilty. I will make no exceptions to that standard.

All right there are some claims by Representative Clay Higgins who is involved in grilling about the January 6 stuff. I guess he questions FBI director Wray about these federal quote ghost buses. So there's an allegation which I am not buying into. Could be true and it's very interesting and I would certainly like to know more about it but remember this is an allegation against the government. So the allegation is that the government had way more undercover people than they're admitting because they haven't admitted any number actually and that they were put on these quote ghost buses. You know these unlabeled buses. There were so many undercovers that they needed buses to bring them in. That's the claim. That is the claim.

Bob let me take a moment. If the best you can do is to insult my critical thinking then you're an idiot because I've given you plenty of things that would allow you to say for example Scott did you know that Time Magazine did an investigation and they found that you're wrong. Like that would be a counter to what I'm saying. But Scott does not have critical thinking is you being an idiot and not being able to handle the fact that you don't have any argument against anything I said. So calm down Bob and log off. Okay. But anyway these ghost buses are not proven. But there are multiple witnesses who say they saw the same thing. They say that the people getting on the ghost buses were let's say unusually fit. There are also a video or a photograph I saw where there are a number of people in the crowd on January 6 who appear to be well trained because they have like their hands on the shoulder of the person in front of them in the crowd you know trying to keep from being separated and stuff and it looked a little too well trained some people are saying.

So because this is alleged government activity I'm going to say guilty until proven innocent. Right? So the exact opposite standard for Ruby and for Hunter. For them innocent until proven guilty but if there's an allegation of ghost buses and we don't know enough about them guilty. Guilty. If they would like to tell us everything they know about the ghost buses, if they would like to tell us everything they know about the number of undercover people then I say oh maybe not guilty. Maybe just doing your job. But if you're not going to tell us guilty. Doesn't mean they're guilty but that's the working assumption when your government doesn't give you full transparency. Same with the election. That I have no specific knowledge of something wrong with the election but it's not transparent so I make the reasonable assumption about any non-transparent government entity or process. Same assumption for all of them. All crooked. No Ruby is not equal to the government. She's somebody who worked there for a day on the election. That's definitely not. No more than Hunter was.

A federal judge is warning Elon Musk that he has to testify. You know how many government processes are working against Elon Musk right now? So there's no question about it that the government has weaponized all of its departments against Musk. There's no doubt that Biden called for that action in public when he said they're going to look into him in a whole variety of ways or we have lots of ways and everybody in the government said oh I guess you want me to investigate them. I'll see what my group can do. And then they did. They did.

Now the fact that the government is going after Musk when he's the most unambiguously positive force in America today and they're going after him trying to take him down. Are they trying to destroy everything that's good? Like try to think of anything that's good in America just anything. What is it they're not trying to destroy? They meaning Democrats. I can't think of anything good that they're not actively trying to destroy. Anything. The economy. The border. Anything.

Anyway there's a company that lets you be a truck driver from your house. So it's basically a mostly self-driving truck. The company is, I saw this in a post by Linus Tech Tips. The company is iride. European. And they already are in operation and it's a self-driving truck but they have humans who sit in front of a monitor to make sure that no human interaction is needed. So the human only gets involved in the edge cases and if the human needs to take a break they just have another human who's also working remotely take over so that they're watched all the time.

Now would you trust a human whose job is to watch a monitor just in case there's a problem? How long could you sit and watch the road without doing anything? Could you sit there for eight hours and just go yeah still looks good still looks good? I think it'd be like those guards who were supposed to be watching Epstein. You know they were asleep. I think I would have had a night job if I were one of those guards and then I would just use the daytime to sleep. Because what are you going to do just look at Epstein now? There's Epstein again. Still looking at him. Still alive. There he is. He's sitting on his bed. Like you get real tired of looking at stuff. Can you? Anyway I think it does give you an alert if the truck needs your attention. It does send you an alert but I don't know how much time I would spend actually looking at the monitor. I feel like I'd carry my phone around in case I got an alert and I would just go on with my day. If I got an alert I'd be like oh steer over to the left a little bit there.

All right so the Trump lead in the polls continues. Pretty much every news story about a new poll is a new commanding lead by Trump. Everything's going in one direction only. You know pro-Trump. But there is some polling that suggests that the race would tighten up considerably if Trump got convicted. So if Trump gets any conviction on any of his 91 counts the polls are telling us that people might turn against him and vote for Biden. Does that sound right to you? That to me that sounds super obviously wrong. Like super extra obviously wrong. Are they trying to prime people to act that way? That would be almost exactly the opposite of what would happen. If you put him in jail he's going to be the president. Let me say that as clearly as I can. If they put Trump in jail you guarantee him the presidency. Guarantee. Fucking it. Yeah no doubt about it. I'd even vote. I might even vote in that case. Yeah yeah. Make no mistake he's not going to jail. Yeah do we agree on that? The legal process might find you know that they want to put him in jail but let me just say this clearly. I got 80 million reasons he's not going to jail. I got 80 million reasons he's not going to jail.

I think it'll be scary and risky and it's always possible but no no no there. You think Democrats don't know where the line is and I think sometimes they don't know where the line is. It's because conservatives are not easily flustered so they bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend right? Are you sick of it? Doesn't it seem like the Republicans just keep bending and they just bent over too far? But here's the thing that would make a Democrat be confused. If the people you're persuading against keep bending you keep pushing right? Why wouldn't you if it keeps working keep doing it? But I think the mistake is to think that the bending is a slippery slope that just keeps bending and that is very much not the personality of much of the country. Much of the country wants to ignore literally everything that they can ignore until they can't ignore it anymore. So if you put him in jail nobody can ignore that. Nobody can ignore it so it can't happen.

Now I suppose there's a possibility that some information would come up that even a Republican would say you know that was so bad he does have to go to jail but we have seen that everything looks just like weaponized Department of Justice. It doesn't look like the normal legal process is working against him. It looks political. So if Trump goes to jail I would feel as if I were already in jail. Would you? Like I feel because he's in a sense a standard bearer for a certain sensibility in this country. If they put him in jail I would feel like I'm next. Like the most of the things that happen in the news don't feel personal. It's like even a war if you don't know anybody who's in the war shooting it doesn't feel personal. It's like a topic in the news. But if you put Trump in jail I would feel that in every part of my body and I would clear my schedule and I would do nothing but trying to fix that because that would be too far. Way too far. And part of me actually wishes it happened. I don't wish him to be in jail but there are some fights you want. You know what I mean? Do you ever have that feeling? There are fights you want to avoid and that would be most of them. You should avoid most fights but there are fights you want. There are fights you want. January 6th is a fight I want.

Yeah I would also suggest that we consider January 6 a holiday. Anybody up for that? Does anybody want to celebrate January 6 as a turning point? Because although we have not realized that turning point the election of Trump should it happen would be the completion of that. January 6 was an op against the American people. It was a psyop meaning the way it was framed not the event itself. It was clearly a psyop. It was whether or not the undercover people were important to the outcome or not. I think they were but even separate from that the way it was framed by the media and the Democrats was so illegitimate and so corrupt that it felt like a turning point to me. That felt and especially when the J6ers start going to jail as they have that's way too far. That is literally violence. Jailing people for those things you know the ones who are not violent themselves the nonviolent people are being jailed that is violence against them. Would you agree? You put somebody in jail that's violence. That is violence. I'm in favor of it if they did real crimes but it's violence.

So January 6 is the point where your government became violent because of your opinions. That's new. That's new. So I think we should celebrate it as the turning point where the left went too far. You could call it a too far day. That was the day they went too far. Because I think that the way the January 6ers were treated is probably one of the biggest animating forces behind people saying you know what Trump might have some rough edges but all of that. Am I right? Because I think a lot of Republicans were willing to accept that Trump was a flawed candidate in all the ways we always talk about and their first choice was to get a nice clean candidate they could support. That was first choice until the January 6ers started going to jail. As soon as the January 6ers started going to jail the nonviolent ones that was too far and that made at least in my mind Trump's reelection a necessity.

Now to be clear I'm still backing Vivek Ramaswamy and I think he'd be a better president because he's younger and I think age matters. But if he doesn't make the final cut it's got to be Trump. It just has to be because January 6 can't go without a response. It just can't go without a response. Now if Vivek said he's going to do pardons on day one for the January 6ers who were nonviolent now I'll accept that. So I'll take Vivek as a solution and I'll take Trump as a solution. But I don't know if the others have said. Has DeSantis said out loud that he would pardon the nonviolent January 6ers? You did? I say yes and a no but DeSantis is not hammering on the point though right? I'm saying no I don't think he said no did he? All right so we have a little bit of a question on what DeSantis's view on that is. Now that's disappointing. Imagine DeSantis is running as a Republican. He is. And we don't know if he would pardon the J6ers on day one. How do we not know that? Because I think he would but he hasn't said it. I feel like he would have said it directly. I don't know. Maybe he said he was open to looking at it or something like that which would be a fair political thing to say. Interesting. He said he would consider it. I think that's probably the reason that we're not sure because he said he would consider it which is a good non-answer. Okay all right.

I'm seeing a comment is frustrating me. Let me say it just once so everybody here sees it. If you think Vivek took money from Soros and is a Soros puppet do a little bit of homework okay? Don't bring that here. We're well beyond believing that he has some kind of Soros connection you should worry about right or that big pharma controls him. Those are just coming from the opposition. There's nothing to that. There's nothing to it. Nothing. Now there was some minor connection that he's explained away. If you haven't heard the explanation don't bring that here. Go do a little bit more work. Just Google it. Listen to Vivek explaining his response to those accusations right. But if you haven't heard that don't bring that here. That's crazy. Yeah all right.

The IDF has admitted that the three hostages who were released I guess they had white flags. They were waving the white flags and they were killed and the IDF has taken full responsibility. Now I have two things to say about that. It's a tragedy of almost unspeakable dimension. The fact that they were that close to being freed so you know your brain is just crushed by the story and so let's not lose sight of that. But despite the tragedy which we're not minimizing I have to say the fact that the IDF said they did it and didn't make an excuse for it I got to respect that. I got to respect that. And it does make me more likely to believe whatever is the next thing they tell me which is tough because in that war context I'm not really expecting to believe anybody but wow sort of a model of how to behave I would say. If you've done something this bad and within a fairly short period of time you say yes this was us no excuses that's pretty good. I'd like to see more of that but less tragedies.

Well AI appears to have broken some kind of barrier we didn't think it would break. So Google's DeepMind which correct me on this is not a large language model right? DeepMind was an earlier version of AI before the large language models. Do I have that right? I got a yes over here. I think that's right. But using DeepMind in conjunction with some other AI they solved some math problems that had not been solved before. And apparently let's see if I can do a good job of explaining this. If you have a few different types of AI so DeepMind is one technology large language models another that the big one can interact with the other ones and that it's almost like a brainstorming system of humans except it's two AIs checking each other's work. So one of them will throw out ideas and the other one will check them and then recheck things and stuff. So in effect this is not how the story was reported this is my own twist on it. AI just learned how to be creative.

So as a creative human being who does it for a living you know I have to create lots of stuff every day. In my mind the way I visualize the process is multiple people in my head. One of them is pitching and then the others are evaluating. Pitch evaluate pitch evaluate. But the pitcher is never evaluating. The pitcher is just pitching. And then there's maybe another part of my brain that works out if it's practical right? So there's one that's just how about this how about this not thinking too much. There's another one saying yes or no and then it's working with the one that looks at things practically. So there are at least three brains in my head working simultaneously right? And I've told you that when I did my micro lesson on one of those brains is the executive. It's the one in charge. But if you imagine the AI could use that same model so that instead of having an AI that would be like just one part of your brain but if you're trying to reproduce human capabilities especially creativity it does make sense to me that you would have a pitcher and a catcher. You've got one coming with ideas and one checking the ideas and they may even be different technologies. And if that doesn't work perhaps one of them can call upon yet another one. Say oh two people in the room is not much of a brainstorm so let's bring in a third AI.

Is it possible that even though the story is about solving a math problem what they really solved was creativity for AI? Now I've told you that this is one of my famous quotes that's on the internet all the time that creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes and art is knowing which ones to keep. Have you ever heard me say that? So creativity is if I'm going to draw let's say a picture of an animal or a person if I give it two eyes and two ears that's not a mistake right? It's also not art. If I gave him one eye maybe it's art but it's a mistake. So if it's a mistake that I look at and I go I kind of like that that is art if you like it as well. So for example Dilbert has no eyeballs and no mouth. That's a mistake but can you imagine Dilbert with eyeballs and a mouth? It would be different. The fact that he has no eyeballs and no mouth turned out to be perfect because he was the voiceless employee. The one who had he was blind and deaf and sort of a slave to the corporation. You put him like a mole. You put him in. So having no eyeballs and no mouth turned out to work and it turned out to be art. Commercial art but it's a mistake. So you need to be able to create AI that can make mistakes and apparently the large language models are very mistakey. They do a lot. I asked what books I published and all the answers were wrong. So all those wrong answers were mistakes. You know what books did I publish? All wrong answers but there were interesting answers. They might have even suggested a new book title that I hadn't written yet. It might have actually come up with the book I should write that I have not yet written by mistake. But if that mistake turned into a real book because the brainstorming worked on me well then it turns into art.

So AI has to learn how to make mistakes productively otherwise they can't be creative. You need to make lots of creative mistakes and then you analyze the creative mistakes like you're panning for gold. It's like ah there's a mistake now useless. There's a mistake useless. There's a mistake useless. There's a mistake whoa why did that mistake make me feel something? It's a mistake it's a mistake but I felt something. Now you get art. So this is a way bigger potential deal than most of you think and you're wondering why I'm spending so much time on it but if AI can solve art it can kind of do anything. That's a pretty big bar and I wasn't sure it could cross it but this idea of the multiple brains working as one brain the way a human brain does that might be the breakthrough. That might be the logical breakthrough is it's got to be multiple entities struggling.

All right and that ladies and gentlemen is all I have to say on today's best live stream you'll ever see. Is there any story I forgot that is so important? I saw a story on social media about some votes in Fulton County Georgia that were being questioned or tossed out but then I checked the news today and I didn't see it. Was that story real? Do you know if that was real? Yeah so the claim was 177,000 invalid ballots from the 2020 election. Andrew Klavan cited my hoaxes. Oh good. So some people say it's real but it's not news. How could it be real and the news isn't covering it? It's on social media but not in the news. Not in the left or the right. It's not on Fox News is it? So I'm going to put a question mark on that one. Big question mark on that one. I don't know if that's real. Is it an old claim? Somebody says this is an old claim. Might be an old claim so that's why I didn't talk about it.

All right the poll workers lied to the FBI about you and meaning the speaker Mike and threatened said I threatened them. Wow. Oh yeah. So there's a new movie called The American Society of Magical Negroes which suggests that the danger in the world is white people or something like that. And as others have pointed out wait a minute if you change the ethnicities of the people in this movie it would go from a funny send-up to something terrible. I'm going to hold my opinion on this one because it is intentionally a comedy and comedies can be challenging. So here's what I think. If it turns out it's hilarious and you watch the movie and you go okay that's just funny then I'm not going to care what they said. If it's funny. If it's not funny and it comes off as racist that's a big problem. But I looked at the trailer and I thought it might be actually funny. I think I'll probably watch it. So I'm prepared to be deeply offended if it turns out that way but I think I'm more primed to think it might be just edgy and funny and worthy.

Right it's still programming yeah but humor humor is its own category. Humor can influence you but sometimes it's okay because joke's a joke. So I tend to be very forgiving about humor. So for example in the trailer to the movie it shows a scene where there's a young black guy walking through some party atmosphere filled with white people and he's feeling all awkward and you know then that's kind of the point of it is that he's awkward around the white people. And I thought to myself I could totally watch this movie because I would love to see a perspective I don't think about or wouldn't you know like I never would have thought about that in exactly the way they presented it. So I thought oh that would be interesting to sort of see the black version of what we're seeing if you're not black. To see the black interpretation of the same things you're watching but you weren't interpreting them that way. To me that would be an interesting movie and if it's funny I'm there.

All right so I'm going to be open-minded on that because I think I'm going to agree with Elon Musk on this. When I got cancelled Elon Musk to his credit said we shouldn't be canceling humor. Now that he wasn't supporting anything I said he was just saying you know let's stop canceling humor. So I appreciated that so much that I'd like to keep that standard. So he's influencing me. I want to keep that standard. I don't want to punish this movie because it's a lot of black creators who are having some fun with some racial standards or assumptions. I say let them have their fun. Let's see how they did and if it's funny it's funny. I'll recommend it if it's funny.

So that's all I got for you YouTube and I will talk to you tomorrow. Thanks for joining the best live stream you've ever seen today. Bye for now.

good morning everybody and welcome to coffee with Scott Adams the finest time of the weekend and every other day too if you'd like this experience which is already extraordinary to go to levels that nobody can even understand with their small human brains you need AI for that and I'm not talking about large language models yeah you'd need AI for that or alternately all you need is a CER marar glass a tanker chelin a Cen jug or flas a vessel of any kind fill it with your favorite liquid I like coffee and join me now for the unparallel pleasure the dopamine day of the day the thing that makes everything better it's called simultaneous Sip and it happens now ah very good well the news is not uh super interesting today so I'm just going to add jokes to all of it is that okay I'll just add jokes to all of the news if I have any well they don't they're not all joke uh let's see we'll start with Matthew Perry we know what happened to him now it was a ketamine overdose which apparently caused him to lose Consciousness and then I guess he slipped into his hot tub so did anybody have drug overdose as their their bet I have to admit I was thinking it was fentel but could have been anything so I've never heard of aamine uh well I don't know if it's an overdose but if he had not been in a hot tub he probably just would have passed out and awakened so yeah it's more about the drowning than the overdose correct well there's a brand new new digital girlfriend app uh Digi is the company dig.

aai and it's sort of cartoon looking but it's sort of like Jessica Rabbit you know kind of a attractive cartoon looking character and I don't know why people are excited about it but it got a lot of attention today um and I want I'm going to ask you this tell me in the comments um I happen to know that my audience includes a lot of people who don't spend time with other people um would you use a digital companion how many of you do you if you're willing to admit it how many of you are willing to use a digital companion now the ones who are saying no um I I feel like you have to establish your human bonafides or something it's like no I would never do that do you know what this feels like this feels like 1985 when you ask somebody if they look at porn does anybody is anybody old enough to remember that in 1985 if you said hey do you look at porn what would people say no no what what why would you even ask that well who who looks at porn besides like creepy perverts I I don't need it I don't need it I don't need any porn not me I don't even know why you're asking that question why are you looking at me why would you even ask me about that question and then you fast forward to the 2000s do you look at porn yeah I really love the stuff am I right you you get a completely different answer in the 2000s than you did in the 80s very different so I just asked this question how many of you would have an consider having an AI companion and people are like no no no no no no no way there's no way you're going to get me with a AI companion well let me check back with you in about 20 years maybe 40 yeah I I think at least half of you who said no way will it indeed have digital companions that's my prediction I don't think this technology is quite there but I'm going to I'm going to tell you something without too much details yesterday I sampled uh I'm going to be very vague here so don't ask me for details I'm vague intentionally for your benefit so this is vagueness for your benefit not mine there there is a digital product that I'm not going to describe that gives you the sensation of being with a human and I I tried it out yesterday and it's not porn it's not porn and my God oh my God it gives you an experience that I can't even explain now so far the thing I'm talking about which is a digital product is not combined with AI can you guess what it is that the other thing is yeah he probably can but it's not porn but when you combine it with with AI is going to blow your mind out and you don't see it coming but I've experienced it so I can tell you that the the empty feeling you get from looking at a cartoonish AI partner is going to be kind of bland and two-dimensional and it won't really have much impact on you there there won't be that many people who fall in love with a cartoon version of a person but there's another level and the the and the level that's coming is like a 100x times these little cartoony characters yeah there's something coming you don't see it yet but you will anyway Mickey Mouse is coming off copyright but not entirely so I guess now the copyright laws protect some stuff for 95 years and the original Mickey Mouse animated Steven boat Willie little black and white cartoon from 95 years ago uh is just coming off a copyright so you can now legally create not the modern uh Mickey so modern modern Mickey Mouse is still protected I don't know how they get away with that but uh the the original version if you were to draw one just like that I think you could even call it Mickey Mouse that part I don't know do they maybe a lawyer can tell me this are there any lawyers who are watching right now but but Mickey Mouse is probably trademarked so probably you could draw the character but you could not name it Mickey Mouse yeah I think that's correct so it's not going to be that much impact on Disney so that it's not going to affect their stock price however there's a really good chance that uh the dilber character will uh have a new friend for ratbert so if you follow Dilbert you know rap bird is one of the characters so he might get Mickey Mouse bird Mouse bird but it would have to be the steam Willie version I saw Jesse Waters yesterday in Fox News talking about how we still don't have the Epstein flight logs and he he was suggesting that the people not releasing them uh you know maybe have some culpability or why can't we see them now I agree that when it comes to the government you should expect the worst and assume the worst if there's no transparency however I'm going to vigorously disagree with the public seeing Epstein's uh flight logs because do you believe that 100% of the people who went on Epstein's flights knew there was something wrong and knew that they were traveling with a bad guy or were they just was just rich people borrowing Jets from other rich people oh my Jet's going this way you want to come along so I understand why the public is curious and I understand why you want to see it but to me this would be the height of um improper behavior that this would fly against everything that's American in my opinion everything American would be violated by uh throwing everybody on that flight log under the bus well let me ask you how many of you think that 100% of the people who are ever on his jet should be ostracized from Human civilization because that's what would happen does anybody think that 100% of the people on the flights should be thrown under the bus no well there's a yes I think if you said yes you're a bad person honestly you're just a bad person and you're going to have to deal with that for the rest of your life but not my problem uh here's what I think I think when you're talking about individual American citizens they need to be innocent until proven guilty and being on a flight log even ab's flight does not prove he did anything wrong and I am unless I'm misunderstanding the issue here maybe I am if if there's if nobody has been uh accused of a specific crime that's their own business that is their own private business and I'm sure they all regret that they got on that plane but it doesn't mean that they're guilty of any horrible crimes so I absolutely disagree with Jesse Waters and anybody else who wants to see the flight logs are we curious yes yes very curious very curious should I see them no no I never want to see them and and the reason is just be to be very clear the reason is because individual citizens are just innocent to proven guilty and there's no wiggle room on that like I realize this is not a wouldn't be a trial but that's why I don't want to see them you wouldn't want your privacy violated that way uh there's a novel method for Uranium extraction from Wastewater how about that because we got that uranium shortage uh but it also generates electricity while you're doing it whoow whoa now a lot of you looked at me for your explanations how science works so I'd like to just explain to you in the the simplest possible ways I'm just going to keep this simple just just a summary of how the technology works all right so here's what you need to know it's a it's a spontaneous microbial electrochemical method so that's the first thing you need to know and what they do is they spatially decomp the microbial oxidation uh and the uranium reduction reactions and it's an innovation that uh what you do is you got the two Chambers separated by the proton exchange membrane you got that right and then obvious obvious they're going to separate with a proton exchange membrane then you use an anode made of carbon felt and a cathode titanium foil and then the process uses that as I said you know not to repeat myself but the microbial driven Electro mechanical reaction and that facilitates sort of a uranium extraction from the Wastewater which simultaneously generates the electricity now you know what makes me a little bit angry about this well you and I thought of this idea but didn't do anything about it so I guess I guess that just tells you that life life really rewards action I mean I was just thinking about this and I'm like huh I want wonder I wonder if I put two Chambers separated by a protein exchange mem and then introduced an anode made of carbon felt so I was thinking about this the other day but I did nothing about it so I feel like an idiot now well Elon Musk is always in the news and he's uh dumping on Disney lately he said that Walt Disney might be turning in his grave cuz Disney is infected deeply infected infected with the woke mind virus I think he's really trying to make that woke mind virus thing you know part of the Comm Consciousness you know I know number of people used it before he did but he's he's really driving it home and they he says they used to bring joy to people's life Disney did making wonderful things their family enjoyed but now now it's just B just basically they're giving you woke garbage speaking of woke garbage um did you know that roughly oneir of adults under 30 uh regularly scroll Tik Tok for the news so onethird of young people are getting their news from Tik Tok and there's a Communications expert Molly mcferson who was at an axios event and she said that the heartbeat of public opinion is Tik Tock she's a crisis communication expert so she would know she and she says says quote if you're not paying attention to that content then you're missing out because that's where the information and viral Trends start so viral Trends start on Tik Tok do you realize what that means right it means that China literally literally as a user interface on our reality because what he what Americans believe is what they gather from their media and social media is the main thing that's influencing the young people and according to this communication expert Molly mcferson who's probably correct the the viral stuff starts on Tik Tok and then nobody can ignore it like then then it becomes our news so here's the path the Chinese government owns bite dance bite dance owns Tik Tock Tik Tock has a button called heat that they can literally push to make something Trend with which they've admitted I'm not I'm not making this up Tik Tok says this so the government can control the companies in China that's normal business they have an actual physical mechanism for making some things more viral than others and now we know the rest of the picture viral things on Tik Tok become the news and then it becomes our our consciousness is still legal and Congress still says yeah but you know Free Speech there's no question whatsoever the Congress is bought off or corrupt because they couldn't be that stupid here I'm being kind I cannot imagine that Congress is so stupid that they don't know how much of a risk this is they can't be that stupid so so what's left it's not a mistake cuz everybody's telling them you know that they've engaged in the conversation so it's not a mistake what could it be there's only one thing left corruption there's literally only one explanation corruption so anybody who's voting to keep ticktock legal you know I I will allow that for the uh you know let's say the Thomas Massy types who are absolutist about Free Speech if you're an absolutist I'm going to give you a half a pass half a pass because I do appreciate consistency that's worth something but this is a national uh it's a threat this is not like a normal communication thing all right there's a new story about a quote missing binder a 10-in binder that disappeared at sometime around the transition from Trump to Biden this binder contains classified information related to uh the the Russian collusion claims and apparently uh there was some thought that the real reason for the raid on marago is to get that binder back now some say the binder uh might have too much information in it about sources and methods and that's why they it's so critical to get it back and and they're thinking that maybe the information isn't terribly important but the sources and methods might be other people say that's exactly why Trump has it if he has it there's no evidence that he has it but if he has it because apparently there was an effort to make it um Public public information but there was a process you know a lengthy process of redacting stuff that hadn't been complete Ed so is there somewhere does somebody have a binder that could be really really damaging to maybe some leadership of the FBI maybe not just sources and methods but maybe something embarrassing maybe so we're only speculating because we don't know what's in it but maybe it had something to do with marago raids that's certainly not um I don't have any direct evidence of that um and maybe Trump had it specifically because they gave him some blackmail control over them maybe but I don't have any evidence of that so we don't have any evidence of who who has it or what's in it or why we care but it's one of the big stories today it's it's a big story we literally don't know anything that's true just nothing I don't know maybe it doesn't even exist all right here's a Evergreen story that I keep going back to um as you know there appear to be continuing excess deaths well after the pandemic is over but the excess deaths weirdly seem to be concentrated in the young whereas old people are actually doing fine in terms of their uh death does that make sense to you that young people would have much higher death after the pandemic and and old people would be doing maybe even better than normal to me that makes perfect sense I'm I'm actually confused why it's confusing or why there's even any mystery to it at all let me explain old people all of the weak old people died early that's it that the ones who were would have maybe held on for a little bit longer the co got them and maybe maybe the pandemic you know restrictions decreased their quality of life so much that you know they died a little early from that so it makes sense that older people had some excess deaths and now we're just seeing you know the the after effect of that but how do you explain how do you explain young people dying at an excess rate well when you read the stories about the young people dying at an excess rate does it tell you which category of death within that group of people is up which category how can you read a story like this that says there's this mysterious and horrible you know well over 100,000 deaths extra it's in young people you know where there should be not any deaths why isn't the most important part of the story what they're dying from how how is that not the most important part of the story so do you what do you conclude what do you conclude from a national like a big story the young people are dying too much and the story doesn't mention what they died from was it self violence was it an accident was it drug overdose was it heart attacks what was it what but but before you speculate about what it was deal with the first question why would there be a national story without breaking down the cause of death how how does that tell you anything I saw this from Pierre Corey you know him from you know pandemic he was a a rogue good doctor meaning that he was not agreeing with the consensus on vaccinations and such does it seem to you that somebody is trying to suggests that the vaccinations kill them that's what I'm getting out of it because it was Pier Cory who's talking about it and he's the one who says that the vaccinations are dangerous but he doesn't complete the loop he doesn't complete the loop and say the exact things that they're dying from are the exact things we'd worry about a vaccination having a side effect you're saying yes he did but not in the article I saw in the article I saw he speculated but he did not mention the the more recent stuff does not does not define this specific causes right now I have seen him I have seen him say separately and before that myocarditis was higher in young people because of vaccinations so I have heard that but what the insurance companies are dealing with you know these big excess deaths they're not they're not completing the loop they're they're not saying that you know it seems heart related and heart related would be suggestive of maybe something that happened recently like vaccinations no autopsies now when young people die unexpectedly don't they do autopsy if a 15-year-old dies of a heart attack they don't check that out I I don't know exactly all right so here's what I I make of it I don't believe it I I first don't believe the numbers and then I secondly don't believe there isn't an obvious explanation for it because to me it seems like the the suicides and the drug overdoses would be through the roof and then I think something happened to all of us socially would you agree how how many of you feel socially damaged by the pandemic I do I feel permanently Changed by the pandemic meaning that my my social impulse is almost none almost none yeah yeah so if I were a teen and I had my social impulse erased and I just lived online and watched porn all day and was on social media I don't know feels like that could kill you but I don't know what the call is so I don't want to speculate too hard it does seem like it might be a whole bunch of different things um Elon Musk is going hard at Dei he says Dei must die in in a separate uh we had two posts on it he and he said the point was to end discrimination not replace it with different discrimination diversity Equity inclusion are propaganda words for racism sexism and other isms and then later he said this is not just morally wrong as any other racism and sexism changing the target class doesn't make it right um yeah so how much do you love the fact that Elon Musk is going hard at Dei and ESG and the other racist policies I feel like we couldn't even have the conversation without him how is he not a person of the year wasn't person of the year like Taylor Swift or something Taylor Swift person of the year oh my God anyway well by now you probably know uh that there was a staffer for senator cardan who is having some um some gay um sex in uh what was it the some kind of Senate uh hearing room Senate's large hearing room so this is the same place that they've done Senate Supreme Court confirmations and impeachment proceedings and and that sort of thing um and in the video that we see uh it's two men uh one is taking the other from behind apparently um there's no word if they are colonizers colonizers um other questions that we don't know is uh is this the reason that the politicians like Schumer they keep telling the public that we don't want to know how the sausage is made now they've told us you don't want to know how the sausage is made were they referring to this I don't know um is this another case of uh we've always hear that the Senators are really interested in pork I don't know if that's related in any way um but he's probably not the first person in the room ever to get some pork and what I really wonder is were they filming it uh as sort of a skit for grade school were they making some content for the young people no or was it was it just sex it looked like they were making some kind of tutorial maybe for grade school I don't know I'm just guessing I'm just guessing I just watch the news like you do I don't know I don't know what was going on but uh yeah that's how the sausage was made all right um let let me say this I don't want to see them get fired and I don't care right all right let's be honest are we only caring because it was gay sex is that the only thing that made it news if this had been heterosexual sex in the same room would anybody even be talking about it you think you would but would we be talking about the same way would it be like funnier no there there's something a little homophobic about the story that makes me uncomfortable I like to laugh at the public sex stories but would it be funny if they were heto oh wouldn't be as funny so I guess that's homophobic in a way anyway check your check your bigotry on that one um mayor Boston mayor uh had the so-called uh uh electeds of color dinner that went ahead and uh apparently the dinner just went ahead and they excluded white people and they were pretty happy about it they seem look like they had a good time um but you know I tweeted yesterday that the uh the public is waking up to 40 Years of insane level of discrimination against white men and only this year we can we can say it out loud so finally finally you can actually say but you know discrimination is against white men at least in in hiring in corporations has been far worse far worse discrimination against any other group not even close but you couldn't even say that without you know losing your career a few years ago so I'm liking this free speech it's kind of good stuff enjoying it uh IBM and red hat I guess red Hat's owned by IBM now uh there was an internal document at Red Hat uh an anti-white document that's apparently still current uh among so James zkee got a hold of this from his whistleblowers um and it says there are Ten Commandments for uh that white people have to observe the allyship commandments so it's how to be a good white person in red hat and one commandment States uh only white people can be racist another one is that uh except that white people are responsible for dismantling racism and then another section argues that whiteness constructs the game hides the rules and then rigs the game over and over again so basically it's just racist anti-white um stuff in IBM so IBM is a racist organization super racist and it's overt it's not hidden they are overtly inpublic super racist against white people so there's that now people keep telling me I should be concerned about things that happened a long time ago for example uh people are trying to double dunk on IBM by saying that IBM in World War II um may have helped Hitler organized the death camps or something maybe it's true maybe it's not I don't give a I don't give a what IBM did with a bunch of dead people 50 75 years ago whatever is I do not care what they did then I totally care what they're doing now what they're doing now really really bad but I don't care what what because all those people are dead there's nobody to answer for it they're all dead I don't care you know I don't care that Volkswagen was Hitler's car Hitler's Dead all the people who made those decisions all dead I can just drive a Volkswagen if I like it I'm allowed it's not my preferred car but I used to have one um and I certainly don't care about uh I don't care which political parties started the KKK can you stop forwarding me it was the Democrats that created the KKK I don't care I don't care they're all dead every one of them is dead don't care if the KKK got some you know traction today well I'd care about that cuz that's today I don't care about the dead ones I also don't care what happened in the Middle East before October 7th and you can't make me care you can try I don't care I don't care I can tell you that Israel certainly has to do what they need to do because of October 7th that's easy that one you know straightforward but before that are you going to get me to say who was the worst oh but but 500 years ago this side was the worst but but 600 years ago this side was the worst and a thousand years ago we used to live there I don't give a I care that one side has a big army so they can protect the land that they say is theirs the the reality of Israel is that if they have a military and enough Military Support well I guess it's their land I don't care what happened 3,000 years ago anyway uh you can care but stop trying to make me care because it won't work um I'd like to give a shout out just because I think it's good form um I've tried to teach you this many times if you can't say something good about the people who are on the other side of a debate then maybe maybe you're not being as objective as you think you are so as just sort of a good hygiene for my brain if I see somebody on on the opposite side from my opinion who's doing something worthy I'd like to call it out and um I think I've made as much fun of John fedman as anybody in the public domain but he's apparently wants to be very tough on immigration laws and I'm sorry I got to say I really respect that because it's easy to be a Republican and say you agree with the Republicans it's tough to be John fedman with everything he's gone through you know the the heat that he had on him especially with his health situation and to get to the end of that and start to you know function the way he'd like to or closer to it and to disagree with your party on something so basic but his disagree treat is based on being a reasonable person in the real world and I can totally support a reasonable person in the real world so Federman with uh with no but good job good job uh I might have other criticisms later but I don't want to do the I disagree with you on these other things let me just say good job on this all right well still watching uh the the Trump Thanos threat Thanos being the Marvel superhero uh villain who could snap his fingers once his bejweled glove had all of the jewels in it he would snap his fingers and the half of all the people on Earth would die so here's what I don't understand about the Democrats on one hand they're very afraid that Trump will get into office and half the people in the country will die or the world I guess uh on the other hand that would solve climate change am I right turns out there's only one politician who has an actual solution to climate change Trump according to Democrats he will snap his Beed glove and half of the world will die instantly then no problem you can have all the energy you need yeah so I think they're not looking on the good side of this whole Trump as Thanos stuff but I would encourage you to keep mocking it yeah don't argue it mock it yeah that's right he's Thanos he's gonna kill everybody snapping his glove finger just like he did the first time he was President you remember that right when half of the people died I'm pretty sure every Democrat said that was going to happen so I guess they did meanwhile Rudy Giuliani lost in court so I guess the two Georgia election workers you remember one of them named Ruby and many of you said uh incorrectly it turns out there is a video of Ruby cheating with these ballots and pulling them out from underneath that table and running them through the counting machine twice and you can see it right on the video you said and I said I see it and you said it's right there it's right in front of you and then I watched it and I said why don't I see it how come I'm not seeing it and then I saw a video of election experts who knew how things should have worked who watched it and they said okay that's just normal they just had some stuff they put on the table to keep it out of the way they took it out and they finished it that's just the normal normal stuff now apparently Giuliani was not allowed to show any evidence for his side now why would you have a a a court situation where you're not allowed to show any evidence for your side well apparently there was some information that the other side wanted from Giuliani they refused to give him you know some digital records and because he was not playing well with the court the court said look you either have to accept the process or you're guilty so he did not accept the process by giving them the information they requested so it looks like the court said all right you know have it your way if you're not going to give us the information you're guilty by almost by definition or by process so now we're going to talk about the how much you owe and they decided that what he owed was uh $148 million $148 billion does that sound anywhere in the neighborhood of a reasonable thing cuz remember Ruby was subjected to much harassment which is real don't make light of that that was real and probably death threats I think she got death threats that's a serious issue but there are very few problems that can't be solved with $148 million but I also think that $14 million might have solved most of her problems as well she could have done okay with 14 million I think so I guess it's so high because the jurors were considering like the penalty part not just what what she would need to be whole but a penalty phase of course this will be appealed who knows what will happen I'd be kind of surprised if some future Court doesn't throw it out or at least knock down the uh award but I would say that if anybody had the goods on Ruby don't you think you'd know it by now I if anybody in an official capacity or let's say Giuliani himself had the goods in other words if he could produce an expert who would watch the video of Ruby and say okay here's my expert don't listen to me listen to the expert and the expert says oh no you can clearly see something wrong but where's that where where is one person who understands the process watching the video telling the rest of us oh yeah here's where the crime was committed right here I haven't seen that so from the beginning I thought she was probably doing just her job and was not guilty of anything remember I told you early on that 95% of all the claims of rigging would not be true even if some of them turned to be turned out to be true so let me ask you given that you have never seen somebody who knows what they're talking about watch the video and point out that there's nothing wrong with it or or that there is something wrong with it nobody's pointing out that there is something wrong with it while they're watching the video I haven't seen it so how many of you think that Ruby is guilty of rigging the election in the comments how many of you think she's guilty I'm seeing mixed mixed answers yeah you know what I'm going to say right can you anticipate what I'm going to say you know there's no legal process against her right there is no legal process investigating Ruby you know why because a cursory investigation shows nothing was wrong you didn't even need to do a deep dive they just took a quick look at it and said this is normal and that was it now um I know you're still suspicious because it's Georgia and you're like oh maybe maybe the prosecutors in on it who knows but let me say this about Ruby she's not the government Ruby is a citizen of the United States Ruby is innocent unless somebody can prove her guilty and nobody's even and trying cuz they got nothing Ruby deserves probably an apology from a lot of people probably right now is there some chance that you know somebody is guilty in ways I don't know well it's always possible but the standard should be that it's it's been what two years now how many years I'm sorry it's almost four years 3 years and in all that time in 3 years and she's totally on video you think in 3 years somebody whose alleged crime is on video there and there's no there's no legal process against her that doesn't convince you that there was nothing there it does to me yeah to me it convinces me nothing was there but let me clarify to make all of you happy let me clarify she's an American citizen she's innocent 100% unless somebody has the goods on her in a legal process and nothing like that's happening so um I'm Team Ruby 100% same with Hunter Hunter is innocent till some process proves and guilty I will make no exceptions to that standard all right um there are some claims by representative Kay Higgins who is involved in Grill in about the the January 6 stuff I guess he uh questions FBI director Ry about these Federal quote ghost buses so there's an allegation which I am not buying into could be true and it's very interesting and i' would certainly like to know more about it but remember this is an allegation against the government so the allegation is that the government had way more under cover people than they're admitting because they haven't admitted any number actually and that they were uh put on these quot quote ghost buses you know these unlabeled buses there were so many Undercovers that they needed buses to bring them in that's the claim that is the claim Bob let me take a moment if the best you can do is to insult my critical thinking then you're a idiot because I've given you plenty of things things that would allow you to say for example Scott did you know the Time Magazine did an investigation and they found that you're wrong like that would be a counter to what I'm saying but Scott does not have critical thinking is you being a idiot and not being able to handle the fact that you don't have any argument against anything I said so calm down Bob and off okay um but anyway these ghost buses are not proven um but there are multiple Witnesses who say they saw the same thing they say that the people getting on the ghost buses were let's say unusually fit there there are also uh there's a video or a photograph I saw where there are a number of people in the crowd on January 6 who appear to be well trained because they have like their hands on the shoulder of the person in front of them in the crowd you know trying to keep from being separate at and stuff and it looked it looked a little too well trained some people are saying so because this is a alleged government activity I'm going to say guilty until proven innocent right so the exact opposite standard for Ruby and for Hunter for them innocent are proven guilty but if there's an allegation of ghost buses and we don't know enough about them guilty guilty it if they would like to tell us everything they know about the ghost buses if they would like to tell us everything they know about the number of undercover people then I say oh maybe not guilty maybe just doing your job but if you're not going to tell us guilty doesn't mean they're guilty but that's the working assumption when your government doesn't give you uh full transparency same with the election that I have no I no specific knowledge of something wrong with the election ction but it's not transparent so I make I make the the reasonable assumption about any non-transparent government entity or process same assumption for all of them all crooked no Ruby is not equal to the government she's somebody who worked there for a day on you know just on the election that that's definitely not no no more than Hunter was um a federal judge is uh warning yon musk that he has to testify at the you know how many government processes are working against Elon Musk right now so there's no question about it that the government has weaponized all of its departments against musk there's no doubt that Biden called for that action in public when he said they're going to look into him in a whole variety of ways or we have lots of ways and everybody in the government said oh I guess you want me to investigate them I'll see what my group can do and then they did they did now like the the fact that the government is going after musk when he's he's the most unambiguously positive force in America today and they're going after him trying to take him down are they trying to destroy everything that's good like try to think of anything that's good in America just anything what is it they're not trying to destroy they meaning Democrats I can't think of anything good that they're not actively trying to destroy anything the economy the Border anything anyway um there's a company that lets you be a truck driver from your house so it's a basically a mostly self-driving truck the company is I saw this in a post by Linus ekin Stam the company is iride European and they already are an operation and it's a self-driving truck but they have uh humans who sit in front of a monitor to make sure that no human interaction is needed so the human only gets involved in the edge cases and if the human needs to take a break uh they just have another human who's also working remotely take over so that they're watched all the time now would you trust a human whose job is to watch a monitor just in case there's a problem how how long could you sit and watch the road without doing anything could you sit there for eight hours and just go yeah still looks good still looks good I I think it'd be like those guards who were supposed to be watching Epstein you know they were asleep I think I would have had a like a maybe I would have had a night job if I were one of those guards and then I would just use the daytime to sleep because what are you going to do just look at Epstein now there's Epstein again still looking at him still alive there he is he's sitting on his bed like you get real tired of looking at stuff can you anyway I think it does give you an alert if the truck needs your attention it does send you an alert but I don't know how much time I would spend actually looking at the monitor I feel like I'd carry my phone around in case I got an alert and I would just go on with my day if I got an alert I'd be like oh steer over to the left a little bit there all right um so the uh Trump lead in the polls continues pretty much every news story about a new poll is a new commanding lead by Trump everything's going in One Direction only you know Pro Trump but there is some polling that suggests that the race would tighten up considerably if Trump got um convicted so if Trump gets any conviction on any of his 91 counts uh the poll are telling us that people might turn against them and vote for Biden does that sound right to you that to me that sounds super obviously wrong like super extra obviously wrong are are they trying to Prime people to act that way that would be almost exactly the opposite of what would happen if you put him in ja he's going to be the president let let me say that as clearly as I can if they put Trump in jail you guarantee him the presidency guarant fuckinge it yeah no doubt about it I'd even vote I might even vote in that case yeah yeah make no mistake he's not going to jail yeah do we agree on that the the legal process might find you know that they they want to put him in jail but let let me just say this clearly uh I got 80 million reasons he's not going to jail I got 80 million reasons he's not going to jail I think it'll be scary and risky and it's always possible but no no no there there you you think Democrats don't know where the line is and I think sometimes they don't know where the line is it's because conservatives are not um easily flustered so they they Bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend and bend right are you sick of it doesn't it seem like the Republicans just keep bending and they just bent over two far but here's the thing that would make a Democrat um be confused if the people you let's say persuading against keep bending you keep pushing right why wouldn't you if it keeps working keep doing it but I think the mistake is to think that the bending is a slippery slope that just keeps bending and that is very much not the personality of much of the country much of the country wants to ignore literally everything that they can ignore until they can't ignore it anymore so if you put him in jail nobody can ignore that nobody can ignore it so it can't happen yeah now I suppose there's a possibility that some information would come up that even a republican would say you know that was that's so bad he does have to go to jail but we have seen that everything looks just like weaponized Department of Justice it doesn't look like doesn't look like the normal legal process is working against them it looks political so if Trump goes to jail I would feel as if I were already in jail would you like I I feel um because he's in a sense a standard Bearer for a certain sensibility in this country if they put him in jail I would feel like I'm next like the most of the things that happen in the news don't feel personal it's like even a war if you don't know anybody who's in the war shooting it doesn't feel personal it's like a topic in the news but if you put Trump in jail I would feel that in every part of my body and I would clear I would clear my schedule and I would do nothing but trying to fix that cuz that would be too far way too far and part of me actually wishes it happened I don't wish him to be in jail but there's some fights you want you know what I mean do you ever have that feeling there are fights you want to you want to avoid and that would be most of them you should avoid most fights but there are fights you want there are fights you want January 6th is a fight I want yeah I would also suggest that we consider January 6 a holiday anybody up for that does anybody want to celebrate January 6 as a um Turning Point because although we have not realized that Turning Point the election of trump should it happen would be the completion of that January 6 was an OP against the American people it was a scop meaning the way it was framed not the event itself it was clearly a scop it was uh whether whether or not the uh undercover people were important to the outcome or not I think they were but even even separate from that the way it was framed by the media and the Democrats was so illegitimate and so corrupt that it felt like a turning point to me that felt and especially when the J Sixers start going to jail you as they have that's way too far that that is literally violence yeah jailing people for those things you know the ones who are not violent themselves the nonviolent people are being jailed that is violence against them would you agree you put somebody in jail that's violence that is violence I'm in favor of it if they did real crimes but it's violence so January 6 is the point where your government became violent because of your opinions that's new that's new so I think we should celebrate it as the turning point where the left went too far you could all you could call it a too far day that was the day they went too far because I think that that the the way the January 6ers were treated is probably one of the biggest animating forces behind people saying you know what Trump might have some rough edges but all of that am I right because I think a lot of Republicans were willing to accept that Trump was a flawed candidate in all the the ways we always talk about and and their first choice was to get a nice clean candidate they could support that was first choice until the January 6ers started going to jail as soon as the January 6ers started going to jail the nonviolent ones that was too far and that made at least in my mind Trump's reelection um a necessity now to be clear I'm still backing uh V ramaswami and I I think he'd be a better president because he's he's younger and I think age matters uh but if he if he doesn't make the uh the Final Cut um it's got to be trump it just has to be because January 6 can't go it can't go without a response it just can't go without a response now if a said he's going to you know do pardons on day one for the January Sixers who were nonviolent now I'll accept that so I'll take v as a solution and I'll take Trump as a solution um but I don't know if the others have said has Des santis said out loud that he would pardon the the nonv January 6ers you did I say yes and a no but disantis is not hammering on the point though right it I'm saying NOS I don't think he said no did he all right so we have a little bit of a question on what danes's view on that is now that's disappointing imagine De.

Santis is running as a republican he is and we don't know if he would pardon the J Sixers on day one how do we not know that because I think he would but he hasn't said it I feel like he would have said it directly I don't know maybe he said he was open to looking at it or something like that which would be you know a fair political thing to say h interesting he said he would consider it I I think I think I think that's probably the reason that we're not sure because he said he would consider it which is a good non-answer okay all right I'm seeing a comment is frustrating me let me say it just once so everybody here sees it if you think V took money from Soros and is a Soros puppet do a little bit of homework okay don't don't bring that here like that're we're well beyond believing that the has some kind of Soros connection you should worry about right or that big Pharma controls them th those are just coming from the opposition there's nothing to that there's nothing to it nothing now there there was some minor connection that he's explained away if you haven't heard the explanation don't bring that here go go do a little bit more work just Google it listen to find V explaining his response to those accusations right but if you haven't heard that don't don't bring that here that's crazy yeah all right uh let's see what uh the IDF has admitted that the three hostages who were released I guess they had white flags they're waving the white flags and uh they were killed and the IDF um has taken full responsibility now I have two things to say about that it it's a tragedy of almost unspeakable Dimension the fact that they were that close to being freed so you know your brain is just crushed by the story and so let let's not you know lose sight of that but uh despite the tragedy which we're not minimizing I have to say the fact that the idea f um said they did it and didn't make an excuse for it I got to respect that I got to respect that and it does make me more likely to believe whatever is the next thing they tell me which is tough because in that war context I'm not really expecting to believe anybody but wow sort of a sort of a model of how to behave I would say if if you've done something this bad and within you know fairly fairly short period of time you say yes this was us no excuses that's pretty good i' I'd like to see more of that but less tragedies well AI uh appears to have broken some kind of barrier we didn't think it would break so Google's Deep Mind which correct me on this is not a large language model right Deep Mind was an earlier version of AI before the large language models do I have that right I got a yes over here I think that's right but using Deep Mind in conjunction with uh some other AI they solved some math problems that had not been solved before and apparently the uh let's see if I can do a good job of explaining this if you have a few different types of AI so deep mind is one technology large language models another that the big one can interact with the other ones and that it's almost like a brainstorming um system of humans except it's two AIS checking each other's work so one of them will throw on ideas and the other one will check them and then you know recheck things and stuff so in in effect this this is not how the story was reported this is my own twist on it AI just learned how to be creative so as a creative human being who does it for a living you know I have to create lots of stuff every day in my mind the the way I um visualize the process is uh multiple people in my head uh one of them is pitching and then the others are evaluating pitch evaluate pitch evaluate but the piture is never evaluating the piture is just pitching and then there's maybe another part of my brain that works out if if it's practical right so there's one that's just how about this how about this not thinking too much there's another one saying yes or no and and then it's working with the the one that looks at things practically so there are at least three three brains in my head working simultaneously right and i' I've told you that that when I did my micro lesson on uh one of those brains is the executive it's the one in charge but if you imagine the AI could use that same model so that instead of having an AI that would be like just one part of your brain but if you're trying to reproduce human capabilities especially creativity it does make sense to me that you would have a pitcher and a catcher you've got one coming with ideas and one check in the ideas and they may even be different Technologies and if that doesn't work perhaps one of them can uh call upon yet another one say oh two people in the room is not much of a brainstorm so let's bring in a third AI is it possible that even though the story is about solving a math problem what they really solved was creativity for AI now I've told you that cre this is one of my famous quotes that's on the internet all the time that creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes and art is knowing which ones to keep have you ever heard me say that so creativity is if I'm going to draw let's say a picture of an animal or a person if I give it two eyes and two ears that's not that's not a mistake right it's also not art if I gave him one eye uh maybe it's art but it's a mistake so if it's a mistake that I look at and I go I kind of like that that is Art if you like it as well so for example Dilbert has no eyeballs and no mouth that's a mistake but can you imagine Dilbert with eyeballs in the mouth it would be different the fact that he has no eyeballs and no mouth turned out to be perfect because he was the uh the voiceless employee the one who had you know he was he was blind and deaf and you know sort of a slave to the corporation you put him like a mole you put him in so so having no eyeballs and no mouth turned out to work and it turned out to be art Commercial Art but it's a mistake so you need to be able to create AI that can make mistakes and apparently the large language models are very mistakey they they do lot I asked what books I published and had all the all the answers were wrong so all those wrong answers were mistakes you know what books did I publish all wrong answers but there were interesting answers they they might have even suggested a new book book title that I hadn't written yet it might have actually come up with the book I should write that I've have not yet written by mistake but if that mistake turned into a real book because it you know the brainstorming worked on me well then it turns into art so AI has to learn how to make mistakes productively otherwise they can't be creative you need to make lots of creative mistakes and then you analyze the creative mistakes like your like your p for gold it's like ah there's a mistake now useless there's a mistake useless there's a mistake useless there's a mistake whoa why did that mistake make me feel something it's a mistake it's a mistake but I felt something now you get art so this is a way bigger potential deal than most of you think and you're wondering why I'm spending so much time on it but if AI can solve art it can kind of do anything that's a pretty big bar and I wasn't sure it could cross it but this idea of the multiple brains working as one brain the way a human brain does that might be the Breakthrough that that might be the logical breakthrough is it's got to be multiple entities uh struggling all right and that ladies and gentlemen is all I have to say on today's best live stream you'll ever see is there any uh story I forgot that is so important I I saw a story on social media about some votes in full Fulton County Georgia that were being questioned or tossed out but then I checked the news today and I didn't see it was that story real do do you know if that was real yeah so the the claim was 177,000 invalid ballots from the 2020 election Andrew claven cited my hoaxes oh good so some people say it's real but it's not news how could it be real and the News isn't covering it it's on social media but not in the news not in the left or the right it's not on Fox News is it so I'm going to put a I'm going to put a question mark on that one big question mark on that one I don't know if that's real is it an old claim somebody says this is an old claim might be an old claim so that's why I didn't talk about it all right uh the pole workers lied to the GPI about you and meaning the speaker Mark and threaten said I threaten them wow oh yeah so there's a new movie called The American Society of magical Negroes which suggests that the the danger in the world is white people or something like that um and as others have pointed out wait a minute if you change the ethnicities of the people in this movie it would go from a funny uh send up to something terrible I'm going to hold my opinion on this one because it is intentionally a comedy and comedies can be challenging so if here's here's what I think if it turns out it's hilarious and you watch the movie and you go okay that's just funny then I'm not going to care what they said if it's funny if it's not funny and it comes off as racist that's a big problem but I I looked at the trailer and I thought it might be actually funny I think I'll probably watch it so you know I'm I'm prepared to be you know deeply offended if it turns out that way but I think I'm more more uh primed to think it might be just edgy and funny and um you you know worthy right is still programming yeah but humor humor is its own category humor can influence you but sometimes it's okay because joke's a joke so I tend to be very forgiving about humor so for example in in the uh in the trailer to the movie it shows a scene where there's a young black guy walking through a some party atmosphere filled with white people and he's feeling all awkward and you know then that's kind of the point of it is that he's awkward around the white people and I thought to myself I could totally watch this movie because I would love to see you know a perspective I don't think about or wouldn't you know like I never would have thought about that in exactly the way they presented it so I thought oh that that would be interesting to to sort of see the the black version of what we're seeing if you're not black to to see the black interpretation of the same things you're watching but you weren't interpreting them that way to me that would be an interesting movie and if it's funny I'm there all right so I'm going to I'm going to be uh open-minded on that because I think uh I'm going to agree with Elon Musk on this when I got cancelled Elon Musk to his credit said we shouldn't be canceling humor now that he wasn't supporting anything I said he was just saying you know let's stop canc humor so I appreciated that so much that I'd like to keep that standard so he's influencing me I I want to keep that standard I don't want to punish this movie because it's a lot of black creators who are having some fun with some you know racial standards or assumptions I say let them have their fun let's see how they did and if it's funny it's funny I'll recommend it if it's funny so that's all I got for you You.

Tube and I will talk to you tomorrow thanks for joining the best live stream you've ever seen today bye for now

[Music]

[Music]

good morning everybody and welcome to

coffee with Scott Adams the finest time

of the weekend and every other day too

if you'd like this experience which is

already extraordinary to go to levels

that nobody can even understand with

their small human brains you need AI for

that and I'm not talking about large

language models yeah you'd need AI for

that or alternately all you need is a

CER marar glass a tanker chelin a Cen

jug or flas a vessel of any kind fill it

with your favorite liquid I like coffee

and join me now for the unparallel

pleasure the dopamine day of the day the

thing that makes everything better it's

called simultaneous Sip and it happens

now

ah very

good well the news is not uh super

interesting today so I'm just going to

add jokes to all of it is that okay I'll

just add jokes to all of the news if I

have any well they don't they're not all

joke uh let's see we'll start with

Matthew

Perry we know what happened to him now

it was a ketamine overdose which

apparently caused him to lose

Consciousness and then I guess he

slipped into his hot tub

so did anybody have drug overdose as

their their bet I have to admit I was

thinking it was fentel but could have

been anything so I've never heard of

aamine uh well I don't know if it's an

overdose but if he had not been in a hot

tub he probably just would have passed

out and awakened so yeah it's more about

the drowning than the overdose

correct well there's a brand new new

digital girlfriend app uh Digi is the

company dig.

aai and it's sort of cartoon looking but

it's sort of like Jessica Rabbit you

know kind of a attractive cartoon

looking character and I don't know why

people are excited about it but it got a

lot of attention today

um and I want I'm going to ask you this

tell me in the

comments um I happen to know that my

audience includes a lot of people who

don't spend time with other people um

would you use a digital

companion how many of you do you if

you're willing to admit it how many of

you are willing to use a digital

companion now the ones who are saying

no

um I I feel like you have to establish

your human bonafides or something it's

like no I would never do that do you

know what this feels

like this feels like

1985 when you ask somebody if they look

at porn does anybody is anybody old

enough to remember that in 1985 if you

said hey do you look at porn what would

people say

no no what what why would you even ask

that well who who looks at porn besides

like creepy perverts I I don't need it I

don't need it I don't need any porn not

me I don't even know why you're asking

that question why are you looking at me

why would you even ask me about that

question and then you fast forward to

the

2000s do you look at porn yeah I really

love the stuff am I

right you you get a completely different

answer in the 2000s than you did in the

80s very

different so I just asked this question

how many of you would have an consider

having an AI companion and people are

like no no no no no no no way there's no

way you're going to get me with a AI

companion well let me check back with

you in about 20 years maybe

40 yeah I I think at least half of you

who said no way will it indeed have

digital companions that's my prediction

I don't think this technology is quite

there but I'm going to I'm going to tell

you something without too much

details yesterday I

sampled uh I'm going to be very vague

here so don't ask me for details I'm

vague intentionally for your benefit so

this is vagueness for your benefit not

mine there there is a digital product

that I'm not going to

describe that gives you the sensation of

being with a

human and I I tried it out yesterday and

it's not porn it's not porn and my God

oh my

God it gives you an experience that I

can't even

explain now so far the thing I'm talking

about which is a digital product is not

combined with

AI can you guess what it is that the

other thing

is yeah he probably can but it's not

porn but when you combine it with with

AI is going to blow your mind

out and you don't see it coming but I've

experienced it so I can tell you that

the the empty feeling you get from

looking at a cartoonish

AI partner is going to be kind of bland

and two-dimensional and it won't really

have much impact on you there there

won't be that many people who fall in

love with a cartoon version of a person

but there's another level

and the the and the level that's coming

is like a 100x times these little

cartoony characters yeah there's

something coming you don't see it yet

but you will

anyway Mickey Mouse is coming off

copyright but not entirely so I guess

now the copyright laws protect some

stuff for 95 years and the original

Mickey Mouse animated Steven boat Willie

little black and white cartoon from 95

years ago uh is just coming off a

copyright so you can now legally create

not the modern uh Mickey so modern

modern Mickey Mouse is still protected I

don't know how they get away with that

but uh the the original version if you

were to draw one just like that I think

you could even call it Mickey Mouse that

part I don't know do they maybe a lawyer

can tell me this are there any lawyers

who are watching right now but but

Mickey Mouse is probably

trademarked so probably you could draw

the character but you could not name it

Mickey

Mouse yeah I think that's correct so

it's not going to be that much impact on

Disney so that it's not going to affect

their stock price however there's a

really good chance that uh the dilber

character will uh have a new friend for

ratbert so if you follow Dilbert you

know rap bird is one of the characters

so he might get Mickey Mouse bird Mouse

bird but it would have to be the steam

Willie

version I saw Jesse Waters yesterday in

Fox News talking about how we still

don't have the Epstein flight

logs and he he was suggesting that the

people not releasing them uh you know

maybe have some culpability or why can't

we see them now I agree that when it

comes to the government

you should expect the worst and assume

the worst if there's no

transparency however I'm going to

vigorously disagree with the public

seeing Epstein's uh flight

logs because do you believe that 100% of

the people who went on Epstein's

flights knew there was something wrong

and knew that they were traveling with a

bad guy or were they just was just rich

people borrowing Jets from other rich

people

oh my Jet's going this way you want to

come

along so I understand why the public is

curious and I understand why you want to

see

it but to me this would be the height of

um improper behavior that this would fly

against everything that's American in my

opinion everything American would be

violated by uh throwing everybody on

that flight log under the

bus well let me ask you how many of you

think that 100% of the people who are

ever on his jet should be ostracized

from Human civilization because that's

what would

happen does anybody think that 100% of

the people on the flights should be

thrown under the

bus no well there's a

yes I think if you said yes you're a bad

person honestly you're just a bad person

and you're going to have to deal with

that for the rest of your life but not

my problem uh here's what I think I

think when you're talking about

individual American citizens they need

to be innocent until proven guilty and

being on a flight log even ab's flight

does not prove he did anything wrong and

I am unless I'm misunderstanding the

issue here maybe I am if if there's if

nobody has been uh accused of a specific

crime

that's their own business that is their

own private business and I'm sure they

all regret that they got on that plane

but it doesn't mean that they're guilty

of any horrible crimes so I absolutely

disagree with Jesse Waters and anybody

else who wants to see the flight logs

are we curious yes yes very curious very

curious should I see them no no I never

want to see

them and and the reason is just be to be

very clear the reason is because

individual citizens are just innocent to

proven guilty and there's no wiggle room

on that like I realize this is not a

wouldn't be a trial but that's why I

don't want to see them you wouldn't want

your privacy violated that way uh

there's a novel method for Uranium

extraction from Wastewater how about

that because we got that uranium

shortage uh but it also generates

electricity while you're doing it whoow

whoa now a lot of you looked at me for

your explanations how science works so

I'd like

to just explain to you in the the

simplest possible ways I'm just going to

keep this simple just just a summary of

how the technology works all right so

here's what you need to know it's a it's

a spontaneous microbial electrochemical

method so that's the first thing you

need to know and what they do is they

spatially decomp the microbial oxidation

uh and the uranium reduction reactions

and it's an innovation that uh what you

do is you got the two Chambers separated

by the proton exchange membrane you got

that right and then obvious obvious

they're going to separate with a proton

exchange membrane then you use an anode

made of carbon felt and a cathode

titanium

foil and then the process uses that as I

said you know not to repeat myself but

the microbial driven Electro mechanical

reaction and that facilitates sort of a

uranium extraction from the Wastewater

which simultaneously generates the

electricity now you know what makes me a

little bit angry about

this well you and I thought of this idea

but didn't do anything about it so I

guess I guess that just tells

you that life life really rewards action

I mean I was just thinking about this

and I'm like huh I want

wonder I wonder if I put two Chambers

separated by a protein exchange mem and

then introduced an anode made of carbon

felt so I was thinking about this the

other day but I did nothing about it so

I feel like an idiot

now well Elon Musk is always in the news

and he's uh dumping on Disney lately he

said that Walt Disney might be turning

in his grave cuz Disney is infected

deeply infected infected with the woke

mind

virus I think he's really trying to make

that woke mind

virus thing you know part of the Comm

Consciousness you know I know number of

people used it before he did but he's

he's really driving it

home and they he says they used to bring

joy to people's life Disney did making

wonderful things their family enjoyed

but

now now it's just B just basically

they're giving you woke

garbage

speaking of woke

garbage um did you know that roughly

oneir of adults under 30 uh regularly

scroll Tik Tok for the news so onethird

of young people are getting their news

from Tik Tok and there's a

Communications expert Molly mcferson who

was at an axios event and she said that

the heartbeat of public opinion is Tik

Tock she's a crisis communication expert

so she would know she and she says says

quote if you're not paying attention to

that content then you're missing out

because that's where the information and

viral Trends

start so viral

Trends start on Tik

Tok do you realize what that means right

it means that

China

literally

literally as a user interface on our

reality because what he what Americans

believe is what they gather from their

media and social media is the main thing

that's influencing the young people and

according to this communication expert

Molly mcferson who's probably

correct the the viral stuff starts on

Tik Tok and then nobody can ignore it

like then then it becomes our

news so here's the path the Chinese

government owns bite dance bite dance

owns Tik Tock Tik Tock has a button

called heat that they can literally push

to make something Trend with which

they've admitted I'm not I'm not making

this up Tik Tok says this so the

government can control the companies in

China that's normal business they have

an actual physical mechanism for making

some things more viral than others and

now we know the rest of the picture

viral things on Tik Tok become the news

and then it becomes our our

consciousness

is still

legal and Congress still says yeah but

you know Free

Speech there's no question whatsoever

the Congress is bought off or

corrupt because they couldn't be that

stupid here I'm being

kind I cannot imagine that Congress is

so stupid that they don't know how much

of a risk this

is they can't be that stupid so so

what's

left it's not a

mistake cuz everybody's telling them you

know that they've engaged in the

conversation so it's not a

mistake what could it be there's only

one thing left corruption there's

literally only one explanation

corruption so anybody who's voting to

keep ticktock legal you know I I will

allow that for the uh you know let's say

the Thomas Massy types who are

absolutist about Free Speech if you're

an

absolutist I'm going to give you a half

a pass half a pass because I do

appreciate

consistency that's worth something but

this is a national uh it's a threat this

is not like a normal communication

thing all right there's a new story

about a quote missing binder a 10-in

binder that disappeared at sometime

around the transition from Trump to

Biden this binder contains classified

information related to uh the the

Russian collusion

claims and apparently uh there was some

thought that the real reason for the

raid on marago is to get that binder

back now some say the binder uh might

have too much information in it about

sources and

methods and that's why they it's so

critical to get it back and and they're

thinking that maybe the information

isn't terribly important but the sources

and methods might

be other people say that's exactly why

Trump has it if he has it there's no

evidence that he has it but if he has it

because apparently there was an effort

to make it um Public public information

but there was a process you know a

lengthy process of redacting stuff that

hadn't been complete

Ed so is there somewhere does somebody

have a binder that could be really

really damaging to maybe some leadership

of the

FBI maybe not just sources and methods

but maybe something

embarrassing maybe so we're only

speculating because we don't know what's

in it but maybe it had something to do

with marago raids that's certainly not

um

I don't have any direct evidence of that

um and maybe Trump had it specifically

because they gave him some blackmail

control over them maybe but I don't have

any evidence of that so we don't have

any evidence of who who has it or what's

in it or why we care but it's one of the

big stories

today it's it's a big story we literally

don't know anything that's true just

nothing I don't know maybe it doesn't

even

exist all right here's a Evergreen story

that I keep going back to um as you know

there appear to be continuing excess

deaths well after the pandemic is over

but the excess deaths weirdly seem to be

concentrated in the

young whereas old people are actually

doing fine in terms of their uh death

does that make sense to you that young

people would have much higher death

after the

pandemic and and old people would be

doing maybe even better than normal to

me that makes perfect

sense I'm I'm actually confused why it's

confusing or why there's even any

mystery to it at all let me explain old

people all of the weak old people died

early that's it that the ones who were

would have maybe held on for a little

bit

longer the co got them and maybe maybe

the pandemic you know

restrictions decreased their quality of

life so much that you know they died a

little early from that so it makes sense

that older people had some excess deaths

and now we're just seeing you know the

the after effect of that but how do you

explain how do you explain young people

dying at an excess

rate well when you read the stories

about the young people dying at an

excess rate does it tell you which

category of death within that group of

people is up which

category how can you read a story like

this that says there's this mysterious

and horrible you know well over 100,000

deaths extra it's in young people you

know where there should be not any

deaths why isn't the most important part

of the

story what they're dying

from how how is that not the most

important part of the story so do you

what do you conclude what do you

conclude from a national like a big

story the young people are dying too

much and the story doesn't mention what

they died

from was it self violence was it an

accident was it drug

overdose was it heart

attacks what was

it what but but before you speculate

about what it was deal with the first

question why would there be a national

story without breaking down the cause of

death how how does that tell you

anything I saw this from Pierre

Corey you know him from you know

pandemic he was a a rogue good doctor

meaning that he was not agreeing with

the consensus on vaccinations and

such does it seem to you that somebody

is trying to suggests that the

vaccinations kill

them that's what I'm getting out of it

because it was Pier Cory who's talking

about it and he's the one who says that

the vaccinations are dangerous but he

doesn't complete the loop he doesn't

complete the loop and say the exact

things that they're dying from are the

exact things we'd worry about a

vaccination having a side

effect you're saying yes he did but not

in the article I saw in the article I

saw he speculated

but he did not mention the the more

recent stuff does not does not define

this specific

causes right now I have seen him I have

seen him say separately and before that

myocarditis was higher in young people

because of vaccinations so I have heard

that but what the insurance companies

are dealing with you know these big

excess deaths they're not they're not

completing the loop they're they're not

saying that you know it seems heart

related and heart related would be

suggestive of maybe something that

happened recently like

vaccinations no

autopsies now when young people die

unexpectedly don't they do

autopsy if a 15-year-old dies of a heart

attack they don't check that

out I I don't know exactly all right so

here's what I I make of it I don't

believe it

I I first don't believe the

numbers and then I

secondly don't believe there isn't an

obvious explanation for it because to me

it seems like the the suicides and the

drug

overdoses would be through the

roof and then I think something happened

to all of us

socially would you agree how how many of

you feel socially damaged by the

pandemic I do I feel permanently Changed

by the pandemic meaning that my my

social impulse is almost none almost

none

yeah yeah so if I were a teen and I had

my social impulse

erased and I just lived online and

watched porn all day and was on social

media I don't know feels like that could

kill you but I don't know what the call

is so I don't want to speculate too hard

it does seem like it might be a whole

bunch of different

things um Elon Musk is going hard at Dei

he says Dei must die in in a

separate uh we had two posts on it he

and he said the point was to end

discrimination not replace it with

different discrimination diversity

Equity inclusion are propaganda words

for racism sexism and other isms and

then later he said this is not just

morally wrong as any other racism and

sexism changing the target class doesn't

make it

right um

yeah so how much do you love the fact

that Elon Musk is going hard at Dei and

ESG and the other racist policies I feel

like we couldn't even have the

conversation without

him how is he not a person of the

year wasn't person of the year like

Taylor Swift or something

Taylor Swift person of the

year oh my God

anyway well by now you probably know uh

that there was a staffer for senator

cardan who is having some um some gay um

sex in uh what was it the some kind of

Senate uh hearing room Senate's large

hearing room so this is the same place

that they've done Senate Supreme Court

confirmations and impeachment

proceedings and and that sort of thing

um and in the video that we see uh it's

two men uh one is taking the other from

behind

apparently um there's no word if they

are

colonizers

colonizers

um other questions that we don't know is

uh is this the reason that the

politicians like Schumer they keep

telling the public that we don't want to

know how the sausage is

made now they've told us you don't want

to know how the sausage is

made were they referring to

this I don't know um is this another

case of uh we've always hear that the

Senators are really interested in

pork I don't know if that's related in

any

way um

but he's probably not the first person

in the room ever to get some pork and

what I really

wonder is were they filming it uh as

sort of a skit for grade school were

they making some content for the young

people no or was it was it just sex it

looked like they were making some kind

of tutorial maybe for grade school I

don't know I'm just guessing I'm just

guessing I just watch the news like you

do I don't know I don't know what was

going on but uh yeah that's how the

sausage was made all right um let let me

say

this I don't want to see them get fired

and I don't

care right all right let's be honest are

we only caring because it was gay

sex is that the only thing that made it

news if this had been heterosexual sex

in the same

room would anybody even be talking about

it you think you would but would we be

talking about the same way would it be

like

funnier no there there's something a

little homophobic about the story that

makes me uncomfortable I like to laugh

at the public sex stories but would it

be funny if they were

heto oh wouldn't be as funny so I guess

that's homophobic in a way

anyway check your check your bigotry on

that one um mayor Boston mayor uh had

the so-called uh uh electeds of color

dinner that went ahead and

uh apparently the dinner just went ahead

and they excluded white people and they

were pretty happy about it they seem

look like they had a good time

um but you know I tweeted yesterday that

the uh the public is waking up to 40

Years of insane level of discrimination

against white men and only this year we

can we can say it out

loud so finally finally you can actually

say but you know discrimination is

against white men at least in in hiring

in corporations has been far worse far

worse discrimination against any other

group not even

close but you couldn't even say that

without you know losing your career a

few years ago so I'm liking this free

speech it's kind of good stuff enjoying

it uh IBM and red hat I guess red Hat's

owned by IBM now uh there was an

internal document at Red Hat uh an

anti-white document that's apparently

still

current uh among so James zkee got a

hold of this from his

whistleblowers

um and it says there are Ten

Commandments for uh that white people

have to

observe the allyship commandments so

it's how to be a good white person in

red hat and one commandment States uh

only white people can be

racist another one is that uh except

that white people are responsible for

dismantling

racism and then another section argues

that whiteness constructs the game hides

the rules and then rigs the game over

and over again so basically it's just

racist

anti-white um stuff in IBM so IBM

is a racist

organization super racist and it's overt

it's not hidden they are overtly

inpublic super

racist against white

people so there's that now people keep

telling me I should be concerned about

things that happened a long time ago for

example uh people are trying to double

dunk on IBM by saying that IBM in World

War II um may have helped Hitler

organized the death camps or something

maybe it's true maybe it's not I don't

give a

I don't give a what IBM did

with a bunch of dead people 50 75 years

ago whatever is I do not care what they

did then I totally care what they're

doing

now what they're doing now really really

bad but I don't care what what because

all those people are dead there's nobody

to answer for it they're all dead I

don't care you know I don't care that

Volkswagen was Hitler's car Hitler's

Dead all the people who made those

decisions all dead I can just drive a

Volkswagen if I like it

I'm

allowed it's not my preferred car but I

used to have one

um and I certainly don't care about uh I

don't care which political parties

started the

KKK can you stop forwarding me it was

the Democrats that created the KKK I

don't care I don't care they're all dead

every one of them is dead don't care

if the KKK got some you know traction

today well I'd care about that cuz

that's today I don't care about the dead

ones I also don't care what happened in

the Middle East before October

7th and you can't make me care you can

try I don't care I don't care I can tell

you that Israel certainly has to do what

they need to do because of October 7th

that's easy

that one you know

straightforward but before that are you

going to get me to say who was the worst

oh but but 500 years ago this side was

the worst but but 600 years ago this

side was the worst and a thousand years

ago we used to live there I don't give a

I care that one side has a big army

so they can protect the land that they

say is

theirs the the reality of Israel is that

if they have a military and enough

Military Support well I guess it's their

land I don't care what happened 3,000

years

ago anyway uh you can care but stop

trying to make me care because it won't

work um I'd like to give a shout out

just because I think it's good

form um I've tried to teach you this

many times if you can't say something

good about the people who are on the

other side of a debate then maybe maybe

you're not being as objective as you

think you are so as just sort of a good

hygiene for my brain if I see somebody

on on the opposite side from my opinion

who's doing something worthy I'd like to

call it out and um I think I've made as

much fun of John fedman as anybody in

the public domain but he's apparently

wants to be very tough on immigration

laws

and I'm

sorry I got to say I really respect that

because it's easy to be a Republican and

say you agree with the Republicans it's

tough to be John fedman with everything

he's gone through you know the the heat

that he had on him especially with his

health situation and to get to the end

of that and start to you know function

the way he'd like to or closer to it and

to disagree with your party on something

so basic but his disagree treat is based

on being a reasonable person in the real

world

and I can totally support a reasonable

person in the real world so Federman

with uh with no

but good

job good job uh I might have other

criticisms later but I don't want to do

the I disagree with you on these other

things let me just say good job on this

all

right well still watching uh the the

Trump Thanos threat Thanos being the

Marvel superhero uh villain who could

snap his fingers once his bejweled glove

had all of the jewels in it he would

snap his fingers and the half of all the

people on Earth would

die so here's what I don't understand

about the Democrats on one hand they're

very afraid that Trump will get into

office and half the people in the

country will die or the world I guess uh

on the other hand that would solve

climate

change am I right turns out there's only

one politician who has an actual

solution to climate change Trump

according to Democrats he will snap his

Beed glove and half of the world will

die instantly then no problem you can

have all the energy you need

yeah so I think they're not looking on

the good side of this whole Trump as

Thanos stuff but I would encourage you

to keep mocking

it yeah don't argue it mock it yeah

that's right he's Thanos he's gonna kill

everybody snapping his glove

finger just like he did the first time

he was

President you remember that right when

half of the people died I'm pretty sure

every Democrat said that was going to

happen so I guess they

did meanwhile Rudy Giuliani lost in

court so I guess the two Georgia

election workers you remember one of

them named

Ruby and many of you said uh incorrectly

it turns out there is a video of Ruby

cheating with these ballots and pulling

them out from underneath that table and

running them through the counting

machine

twice and you can see it right on the

video you said and I said I see it and

you said it's right there it's right in

front of you and then I watched it and I

said why don't I see it how come I'm not

seeing it and then I saw a video of

election experts who knew how things

should have worked who watched it and

they said okay that's just normal they

just had some stuff they put on the

table to keep it out of the way they

took it out and they finished it that's

just the normal normal stuff

now apparently Giuliani was not allowed

to show any evidence for his

side now why would you have a a a court

situation where you're not allowed to

show any evidence for your side well

apparently there was some information

that the other side wanted from Giuliani

they refused to give him you know some

digital records and because he was not

playing well with the court the court

said look you either have to accept the

process or you're guilty so he did not

accept the process by giving them the

information they requested so it looks

like the court said all right you know

have it your way if you're not going to

give us the information you're guilty by

almost by definition or by process so

now we're going to talk about the how

much you owe and they decided that what

he owed was uh $148

million $148

billion

does that sound anywhere in the

neighborhood of a reasonable thing cuz

remember Ruby was subjected to much

harassment which is real don't make

light of that that was real and probably

death threats I think she got death

threats that's a serious issue but there

are very few problems that can't be

solved with $148

million but I also think that $14

million might have solved most of her

problems as well she could have done

okay with 14 million I think so I guess

it's so high because the jurors were

considering like the penalty part not

just what what she would need to be

whole but a penalty phase of course this

will be

appealed who knows what will happen I'd

be kind of surprised if some future

Court doesn't throw it out or at least

knock down the uh

award

but I would say that if anybody had the

goods on

Ruby don't you think you'd know it by

now I if anybody in an official capacity

or let's say Giuliani himself had the

goods in other words if he could produce

an expert who would watch the video of

Ruby and say okay here's my expert don't

listen to me listen to the expert and

the expert says oh no you can clearly

see something wrong but where's that

where where is one person who

understands the process watching the

video telling the rest of us oh yeah

here's where the crime was committed

right here I haven't seen

that so from the beginning I thought she

was probably doing just her job and was

not guilty of anything remember I told

you early on that 95% of all the claims

of

rigging would not be true even if some

of them turned to be turned out to be

true so let me ask you given that you

have never seen somebody who knows what

they're talking about watch the video

and point out that there's nothing wrong

with

it or or that there is something wrong

with it nobody's pointing out that there

is something wrong with it while they're

watching the

video I haven't seen it

so how many of you think that Ruby is

guilty of rigging the

election in the comments how many of you

think she's guilty

I'm seeing mixed mixed

answers yeah you know what I'm going to

say right can you anticipate what I'm

going to say you know there's no legal

process against her

right there is no legal process

investigating Ruby you know why because

a cursory investigation shows nothing

was wrong you didn't even need to do a

deep dive they just took a quick look at

it and said this is normal and that was

it

now um I know you're still suspicious

because it's Georgia and you're like oh

maybe maybe the prosecutors in on it who

knows but let me say this about Ruby

she's not the

government Ruby is a citizen of the

United States Ruby is

innocent unless somebody can prove her

guilty and nobody's even and trying cuz

they got nothing

Ruby deserves probably an apology from a

lot of people probably right now is

there some chance that you know somebody

is guilty in ways I don't know well it's

always possible but the standard should

be that it's it's been what two years

now how many years I'm sorry it's almost

four years 3

years and in all that time in 3 years

and she's totally on video you think in

3 years somebody whose alleged crime is

on video there and there's no there's no

legal process against

her that doesn't convince you that there

was nothing

there it does to

me yeah to me it convinces me nothing

was there but let me clarify to make all

of you happy let me

clarify she's an American

citizen she's innocent

100% unless somebody has the goods on

her in a legal process and nothing like

that's happening so um I'm Team Ruby

100% same with Hunter Hunter is innocent

till some process proves and guilty I

will make no exceptions to that

standard all right um there are some

claims by representative Kay Higgins who

is involved in Grill in about the the

January 6 stuff I guess

he uh questions FBI director Ry about

these Federal quote ghost buses so

there's an

allegation which I am not buying

into could be true and it's very

interesting and i' would certainly like

to know more about it but remember this

is an allegation against the

government so the allegation is that the

government had way more under cover

people than they're admitting because

they haven't admitted any number

actually and that they were uh put on

these quot quote ghost buses you know

these unlabeled buses there were so many

Undercovers that they needed buses to

bring them

in that's the

claim that is the

claim Bob let me take a moment if the

best you can do is to insult my critical

thinking then you're a idiot

because I've given you plenty of things

things that would allow you to say for

example Scott did you know the Time

Magazine did an investigation and they

found that you're wrong like that would

be a counter to what I'm saying but

Scott does not have critical thinking is

you being a idiot and not being

able to handle the fact that you don't

have any argument against anything I

said so calm down Bob and off

okay

um but anyway these ghost buses are not

proven

um but there are multiple Witnesses who

say they saw the same thing they say

that the people getting on the ghost

buses were let's say unusually

fit there there are also uh there's a

video or a photograph I saw where there

are a number of people in the crowd on

January 6 who appear to be well

trained because they have like their

hands on the shoulder of the person in

front of them in the crowd you know

trying to keep from being separate at

and stuff and it looked it looked a

little too well trained some people are

saying so because this is a alleged

government activity I'm going to say

guilty until proven

innocent right so the exact opposite

standard for Ruby and for Hunter for

them innocent are proven guilty but if

there's an allegation of ghost buses and

we don't know enough about

them guilty

guilty it if they would like to tell us

everything they know about the ghost

buses if they would like to tell us

everything they know about the number of

undercover people then I say oh maybe

not guilty maybe just doing your

job but if you're not going to tell us

guilty doesn't mean they're guilty but

that's the working assumption when your

government doesn't give you uh full

transparency same with the election that

I have no I no specific knowledge of

something wrong with the election

ction but it's not transparent so I make

I make the the reasonable assumption

about any non-transparent government

entity or process same assumption for

all of them all

crooked no Ruby is not equal to the

government she's somebody who worked

there for a day on you know just on the

election that that's definitely not no

no more than Hunter

was

um

a federal

judge is uh warning yon musk that he has

to testify at

the you know how many government

processes are working against Elon Musk

right now so there's no question about

it that the government has

weaponized all of its departments

against musk there's no doubt that Biden

called for that action in public when he

said they're going to look into him in a

whole variety of ways or we have lots of

ways and everybody in the government

said oh I guess you want me to

investigate them I'll see what my group

can do and then they did they

did

now like the the fact that the

government is going after

musk when he's he's the most

unambiguously positive force in America

today and they're going after him trying

to take him down are they trying to

destroy everything that's

good like try to think of anything

that's good in America just

anything what is it they're not trying

to destroy they meaning Democrats I

can't think of anything good that

they're not actively trying to destroy

anything the economy the Border

anything

anyway um there's a company that lets

you be a truck driver from your house so

it's a basically a mostly self-driving

truck the company is I saw this in a

post by Linus ekin Stam the company is

iride

European and they already are an

operation and it's a self-driving truck

but they have uh humans who sit in front

of a monitor to make sure that no human

interaction is needed so the human only

gets involved in the edge cases and if

the human needs to take a

break uh they just have another human

who's also working remotely take over so

that they're watched all the time now

would you trust a human whose job is to

watch a monitor just in case there's a

problem how how long could you sit and

watch the road without doing

anything could you sit there for eight

hours and just go yeah still looks good

still looks good I I think it'd be like

those guards who were supposed to be

watching Epstein you know they were

asleep I think I would have had a like a

maybe I would have had a night job if I

were one of those guards and then I

would just use the daytime to sleep

because what are you going to do just

look at Epstein now there's Epstein

again still looking at him still alive

there he is he's sitting on his bed like

you get real tired of looking at stuff

can

you anyway I think it does give you an

alert if the truck needs your attention

it does send you an alert but I don't

know how much time I would spend

actually looking at the

monitor I feel like I'd carry my phone

around in case I got an alert and I

would just go on with my day if I got an

alert I'd be like oh steer over to the

left a little bit

there all

right um

so the uh Trump lead in the polls

continues pretty much every news story

about a new poll is a new commanding

lead by Trump everything's going in One

Direction only you know Pro Trump

but there is some polling that suggests

that the race would tighten up

considerably if Trump got um

convicted so if Trump gets any

conviction on any of his 91 counts uh

the poll are telling us that people

might turn against them and vote for

Biden does that sound right to

you that to me that sounds super

obviously

wrong like super extra obviously

wrong are are they trying to Prime

people to act that way that would be

almost exactly the opposite of what

would

happen if you put him in ja he's going

to be the

president let let me say that as clearly

as I can if they put Trump in jail you

guarantee him the presidency guarant

fuckinge it yeah no doubt about

it I'd even vote I might even vote in

that

case yeah yeah make no mistake he's not

going to

jail yeah do we agree on that the the

legal process might find you know that

they they want to put him in jail but

let let me just say this

clearly uh I got 80 million reasons he's

not going to

jail I got 80 million reasons

he's not going to jail I think it'll be

scary and risky and it's always

possible but no no no there there

you you think Democrats don't know where

the line is and I think sometimes they

don't know where the line is it's

because conservatives are not um easily

flustered so they they Bend and bend and

bend and bend and bend and bend and bend

and bend and bend and bend and bend and

bend right are you sick of

it doesn't it seem like the Republicans

just keep

bending and they just bent over two far

but here's the thing that would make a

Democrat um be

confused if the people you let's say

persuading against keep

bending you keep pushing right why

wouldn't you if it keeps working keep

doing it but I think the mistake is to

think that the bending is a slippery

slope that just keeps bending and that

is very much not the personality of much

of the country much of the country wants

to ignore literally everything that they

can ignore until they can't ignore it

anymore so if you put him in

jail nobody can ignore that nobody can

ignore

it so it can't happen

yeah now I suppose there's a possibility

that some information would come up that

even a republican would say you know

that was that's so bad he does have to

go to jail but we have seen that

everything looks just like weaponized

Department of Justice it doesn't look

like doesn't look like the normal legal

process is working against them it looks

political

so if Trump goes to

jail I would feel as if I were already

in

jail would

you like I I feel um because he's in a

sense a standard Bearer for a certain

sensibility in this

country if they put him in jail I would

feel like I'm

next like the most of the things that

happen in the news don't feel

personal it's like even a war if you

don't know anybody who's in the war

shooting it doesn't feel personal it's

like a topic in the news but if you put

Trump in jail I would feel that in every

part of my body

and I would clear I would clear my

schedule and I would do nothing but

trying to fix that cuz that would be too

far way too

far and part of me actually wishes it

happened I don't wish him to be in jail

but there's some fights you want you

know what I mean do you ever have that

feeling there are fights you want to you

want to avoid and that would be most of

them you should avoid most fights but

there are fights you

want there are fights you want January

6th is a fight I

want yeah I would also

suggest that we consider January 6 a

holiday anybody up for

that does anybody want to celebrate

January 6 as a um Turning Point

because although we have not realized

that Turning

Point the election of trump should it

happen would be the completion of that

January 6 was an OP against the American

people it was a scop meaning the way it

was framed not the event itself it was

clearly a scop it was uh whether whether

or not the uh undercover people were

important to the outcome or not I think

they were but

even even separate from that the way it

was

framed by the media and the Democrats

was so illegitimate and so corrupt that

it felt like a turning point to me that

felt and especially when the J Sixers

start going to jail you as they have

that's way too

far that that is literally

violence yeah jailing people for those

things you know the ones who are not

violent themselves the nonviolent people

are being jailed that is violence

against them would you agree you put

somebody in jail that's

violence that is violence I'm in favor

of it if they did real crimes but it's

violence so January 6 is the point where

your government became

violent because of your

opinions that's

new that's

new so I think we should celebrate it as

the turning point where the left went

too

far you could all you could call it a

too far day that was the day they went

too far because I think that that the

the way the January 6ers were treated is

probably one of the biggest animating

forces behind people saying you know

what Trump might have some rough edges

but all of that am I right because

I think a lot of Republicans were

willing to accept that Trump was a

flawed candidate in all the the ways we

always talk

about and and their first choice was to

get a nice clean candidate they could

support that was first choice until the

January 6ers started going to

jail as soon as the January 6ers started

going to jail the nonviolent

ones that was too far and that made at

least in my mind

Trump's

reelection

um a

necessity now to be clear I'm still

backing uh V ramaswami and I I think

he'd be a better president because he's

he's younger and I think age

matters uh but if he if he doesn't make

the uh the Final

Cut um it's got to be

trump it just has to be because January

6 can't

go it can't go without a

response it just can't go without a

response now if a said he's going to you

know do pardons on day one for the

January Sixers who were

nonviolent now I'll accept that so I'll

take v as a solution and I'll take Trump

as a

solution um but I don't know if the

others have said has Des santis said out

loud that he would pardon the the nonv

January 6ers you did I say yes and a

no but disantis is not hammering on the

point though

right it I'm saying

NOS I don't think he said no did he all

right so we have a little bit of a

question on what danes's view on that is

now that's

disappointing imagine DeSantis is

running as a

republican he is and we don't

know if he would pardon the J Sixers on

day one how do we not know

that because I think he would but he

hasn't said

it I feel like he would have said it

directly I don't know maybe he said he

was open to looking at it or something

like that which would be you know a fair

political thing to

say h interesting he said he would

consider it I I think I think I think

that's probably the reason that we're

not sure because he said he would

consider it which is a good

non-answer

okay all right I'm seeing a comment is

frustrating me let me say it just once

so everybody here sees it if you think V

took money from Soros and is a Soros

puppet do a little bit of homework okay

don't don't bring that

here like that're we're well beyond

believing that the has some kind of

Soros connection you should worry about

right or that big Pharma controls them

th those are just coming from the

opposition there's nothing to that

there's nothing to it nothing now there

there was some minor connection that

he's explained away if you haven't heard

the explanation don't bring that here go

go do a little bit more work

just Google it listen to find V

explaining his response to those

accusations right but if you haven't

heard that don't don't bring that here

that's crazy

yeah all right uh let's see what uh the

IDF has admitted that the three hostages

who were released I guess they had white

flags they're waving the white flags and

uh they were killed and the IDF um has

taken full

responsibility now I have two things to

say about that it it's a tragedy of

almost unspeakable Dimension the fact

that they were that close to being freed

so you know your brain is just crushed

by the

story and so let let's not you know lose

sight of that but uh despite the tragedy

which we're not

minimizing I have to say the fact that

the idea f um said they did it and

didn't make an excuse for

it I got to respect that I got to

respect that and it does make me more

likely to believe whatever is the next

thing they tell me which is tough

because in that war context I'm not

really expecting to believe

anybody but wow sort of a sort of a

model of how to behave I would say

if if you've done something this bad and

within you know fairly fairly short

period of

time you say yes this was us no

excuses that's pretty good i' I'd like

to see more of that but less

tragedies well AI uh appears to have

broken some kind of barrier we didn't

think it would break so Google's Deep

Mind which correct me on this is not a

large language model right Deep Mind was

an earlier version of AI before the

large language models do I have that

right I got a yes over here I think

that's right but using Deep Mind in

conjunction with uh some other

AI they solved some math problems that

had not been solved

before and apparently

the uh let's see if I can do a good job

of explaining this if you have

a few different types of AI so deep mind

is one technology large language models

another that the big

one can interact with the other ones and

that it's almost like a

brainstorming um system of humans except

it's two AIS checking each other's work

so one of them will throw on ideas and

the other one will check them and then

you know recheck things and stuff so in

in

effect this this is not how the story

was reported this is my own twist on

it AI just learned how to be

creative so as a creative human being

who does it for a living you know I have

to create lots of stuff every day in my

mind the the way I um visualize the

process is uh multiple people in my head

uh one of them is pitching and then the

others are evaluating pitch evaluate

pitch evaluate but the piture is never

evaluating the piture is just pitching

and then there's maybe another part of

my brain that works out if if it's

practical right so there's one that's

just how about this how about this not

thinking too much there's another one

saying yes or no and and then it's

working with the the one that looks at

things practically so there are at least

three three brains in my head working

simultaneously right and i' I've told

you that that when I did my micro lesson

on uh one of those brains is the

executive it's the one in

charge but if you imagine the AI could

use that same model so that instead of

having an AI that would be like just one

part of your brain but if you're trying

to reproduce human capabilities

especially creativity it does make sense

to me that you would have a pitcher and

a catcher you've got one coming with

ideas and one check in the ideas and

they may even be different

Technologies and if that doesn't work

perhaps one of them can uh call upon yet

another one say oh two people in the

room is not much of a brainstorm so

let's bring in a third

AI is it possible that even though the

story is about solving a math problem

what they really

solved was creativity for

AI now I've told you that cre this is

one of my famous quotes that's on the

internet all the

time that creativity is allowing

yourself to make

mistakes and art is knowing which ones

to

keep have you ever heard me say that so

creativity is if I'm going to draw let's

say a picture of an animal or a person

if I give it two eyes and two

ears that's not that's not a mistake

right it's also not

art if I gave him one

eye uh maybe it's art but it's a

mistake so if it's a mistake that I look

at and I go I kind of like that that is

Art if you like it as well so for

example Dilbert has no eyeballs and no

mouth that's a mistake but can you

imagine Dilbert with eyeballs in the

mouth it would be

different the fact that he has no

eyeballs and no mouth turned out to be

perfect because he was the uh the

voiceless employee the one who had you

know he was he was blind and deaf and

you know sort of a slave to the

corporation you put him like a mole you

put him in so so having no eyeballs and

no mouth turned out to work and it

turned out to be art Commercial Art but

it's a mistake so you need to be able to

create AI that can make

mistakes and apparently the large

language models are very

mistakey they they do lot I asked what

books I published and had all the all

the answers were wrong so all those

wrong answers were mistakes you know

what books did I publish all wrong

answers but there were interesting

answers they they might have even

suggested a new book book title that I

hadn't written yet it might have

actually come up with the book I should

write that I've have not yet written by

mistake but if that mistake turned into

a real book because it you know the

brainstorming worked on me well then it

turns into art so AI has to learn how to

make

mistakes

productively otherwise they can't be

creative you need to make lots of

creative mistakes and then you analyze

the creative mistakes like your like

your p for gold it's like ah there's a

mistake now useless there's a mistake

useless there's a mistake useless

there's a mistake whoa why did that

mistake make me feel something it's a

mistake it's a mistake but I felt

something now you get

art so this is a way bigger potential

deal than most of you think and you're

wondering why I'm spending so much time

on it but if AI can solve

art it can kind of do

anything that's a pretty big bar and I

wasn't sure it could cross it but this

idea of the multiple brains working as

one brain the way a human brain does

that might be the Breakthrough that that

might be the logical breakthrough is

it's got to be multiple entities uh

struggling all right and that ladies and

gentlemen is all I have to say on

today's best live stream you'll ever

see is there any uh story I forgot that

is so important I I saw a story on

social

media about some votes in full Fulton

County

Georgia that were being questioned or

tossed out but then I checked the news

today and I didn't see it was that story

real

do do you know if that was

real yeah so the the claim was 177,000

invalid ballots from the 2020

election Andrew claven cited my hoaxes

oh

good so some people say it's real but

it's not news how could it be real and

the News isn't covering it it's on

social media but not in the news

not in the left or the right it's not on

Fox News is

it so I'm going to put a I'm going to

put a question mark on that one big

question mark on that one I don't know

if that's real is it an old claim

somebody says this is an old claim might

be an old claim so that's why I didn't

talk about it all

right uh the pole workers lied to the

GPI about you and meaning the speaker

Mark and threaten said I threaten them

wow oh yeah so there's a new movie

called The American Society of magical

Negroes which suggests that the the

danger in the world is white people or

something like

that um and as others have pointed out

wait a minute if you change the

ethnicities of the people in this movie

it would go from a funny uh send up to

something terrible I'm going to hold my

opinion on this

one because it is intentionally a

comedy and

comedies can be

challenging so if here's here's what I

think if it turns out it's

hilarious and you watch the movie and

you go okay that's just funny then I'm

not going to care what they

said if it's funny

if it's not

funny and it comes off as racist that's

a big

problem but I I looked at the trailer

and I thought it might be actually

funny I think I'll probably watch it so

you know I'm I'm prepared to be you know

deeply offended if it turns out that way

but I think I'm more more uh primed to

think it might be just edgy and funny

and

um you you know worthy

right is still programming yeah but

humor humor is its own category humor

can influence you but sometimes it's

okay because joke's a joke so I tend to

be very forgiving about humor so for

example in in the uh in the trailer to

the movie it shows a scene where there's

a young black guy walking through a some

party atmosphere filled with white

people and he's feeling all

awkward and you know then that's kind of

the point of it is that he's awkward

around the white people and I thought to

myself I could totally watch this movie

because I would love to see you know a

perspective I don't think about or

wouldn't you know like I never would

have thought about that in exactly the

way they presented it so I thought oh

that that would be interesting to to

sort of

see the the black version of what we're

seeing if you're not black to to see the

black interpretation of the same things

you're watching but you weren't

interpreting them that way to me that

would be an interesting movie and if

it's

funny I'm there all right so I'm going

to I'm going to be uh open-minded on

that because I think uh I'm going to

agree with Elon Musk on

this when I got

cancelled Elon Musk to his credit said

we shouldn't be canceling

humor now that he wasn't supporting

anything I said he was just saying you

know let's stop canc humor so I

appreciated that so

much that I'd like to keep that standard

so he's influencing me I I want to keep

that standard I don't want to punish

this movie because it's a lot of black

creators who are having some fun with

some you know racial standards or

assumptions I say let them have their

fun let's see how they did and if it's

funny it's funny I'll recommend it if

it's

funny so that's all I got for you

YouTube and I will talk to you tomorrow
