n't fly by instruments. And the total amount of processing you probably have to add to a flight to make it fully AI is probably the size of your phone, right? There's no weight added. The airplane doesn't have any extra burden. It would just be smarter.

So there is no way that people are going to be learning to fly the way they do now if there are even human pilots at all. So everything in aviation is going to change drastically very quickly.

All right. I've got a prediction that the advertising model of the news and the advertising model of the big social media platforms cannot survive AI. Have you reached the same conclusion that you can't have AI at the same time as you have an advertising model? That they cannot coexist? You all know that, right? I'll give you the reason but have you reached that conclusion on your own yet? That's a big change.

Here's why. As also Brian Roemmele teaches us, we're all going to have our own AI. The AIs that we're using like Grok and ChatGPT are cloud-based. You know you're typing at home but the computing is happening somewhere in the internet. Well we already have, and apparently it's trivially easy technologically to run an AI that's your own AI that's only on your devices and nobody else can see it or play with it. And it knows you. You can teach it about yourself and you can train it to do just stuff you want it to do.

What's the first thing you're going to do if I get my good general purpose AI that's local? The first thing I'm going to do is say go to CNN, download all their videos, remove the advertisements, edit them so they're tighter and faster, speed them up to 1.4 speed and then present them to me on a page. Why wouldn't I do that? Do you think AI can't download a video? Someday download a video, strip out the ads because who would know what an advertisement is, and then present it to you in a tighter form? Of course. Again, why would you ever watch it with the ad? What would ever make you go to CNN's website again if something could simply click there and download it for you? And I would tell my AI to do that for me before I wake up. So I'd come in in the morning and I'd see a page that was curated just for me with no ads.

Now who would not do that? Because at some point you'll be able to say duplicate Scott's system and if I allowed you to know what that was your AI would just go find me, duplicate the system, give it to you and then you'd have it. All right, can AI embed ads? Yeah I guess it could. AI could embed ads too. It could go the other way. But I think the ad model can't survive. And which also tells me that X might be the surviving platform in the long run because in the long run I think X might move to more subscriber and it should. I think the other ones will be trying to catch up.

Well the Washington Post strike is hilarious. So it turns out that the owner is this rich white guy and the Washington Post has been hiring people who really don't like rich white men. Do you think Bezos saw that coming? So there's a video by the strikers in which there's lots of images of the strikers talking. So one at a time their face would appear and then they say why they're striking. How many white men do you think were in that group? It's mostly women. I don't know if it was mostly women who wanted to talk on camera but they seem to be a female organization primarily based on the videos. The strikers look overwhelmingly female but also overwhelmingly people of color. So it looks like they're being eaten alive by their own policies in a sense.

And who was it that mocked them for writing articles about how great Bidenomics are while complaining that they need a raise because of inflation? So the same publication that's been telling you the economy is great, it's your imagination if you think otherwise, they're striking because I can't pay the rent. But who was it who said, damn it I should have given credit to this, but one of their demands is they want to spend less time in the office. So they want to have a guaranteed two days per week remote and one month a year that they can be anywhere, which is pretty aggressive bargaining. But the way I read it is that they're striking to spend less time in the office with Phil Bump. Is that too far? I know if it were me I'd strike so I could spend less time around Phil Bump. Okay he's my nemesis so I like to tease. I tease Phil Bump and if you think that is racism in me it indicates that he's 82% Trump, well that's not true. That's not true.

All right. Big problems for Ramaswamy and Christie. Apparently to get in the next poll you've got to be polling over 10%. And in the last several average of polls they're not. So both Ramaswamy and Christie don't look like they're going to be in the next debate the way things look based on current polling. But Nikki Haley and Governor DeSantis will be there. Now why do you think that Nikki Haley, it's just because she's a woman, right? I'm pretty sure it's not because her policies are lighting anybody up. Yeah I think it's just she's a woman. And by the way that's fine. That's not a problem. If women or men want to have a woman in the job, I know it's about time. You know as much as I rail against wokeness I was actually happy we finally had a black president and I would be happy when we finally get a female president. I'd like it to be a qualified person of course. But I feel like the country is better off if you just sort of cross those things off the list just so we don't have to talk about it again. Wouldn't you like it if the next time a major female candidate is within striking distance that we don't have to talk about her genitalia? Wouldn't that be good to just get it off the conversation list? How about a woman can be president. How about being black d
