everything better. It's called the simultaneous sip. Today's show is going to be amazing, by the way. Ah, so good. What is today's date? Everybody's telling me I put the wrong date in my comic today, but I think I got it right on the second try. People don't believe me when I say I have a, uh... Monday the 29th. Yeah, I got the wrong date on the calendar again. Did I? No, I thought I got it righ…
← Previous segment →people in society are going to do whatever the AI tells them because the AI is smarter than them. So I believe there will be a point where the AI actually tells their owner how to vote. Like, actually literally. I think there will be a point where people below a certain level of, I'm going to say intelligence or at least below a certain level of paying attention to the world, they're going to wait till election day and they're going to ask their robot who they should vote for. And the robot will say, you know, well knowing you and all the things that you want to accomplish in life and knowing the candidates, I think you should vote for this one. And then the people below that level of intelligence or just paying attention are just going to go with the robot.
But there's going to be a separation. There will be another group of people, and I hope I'm in it but I don't know for sure, in which we will be working with the AI and the robots in some kind of a collaborative situation. So for example, I've wanted to upgrade the quality of my videos, specifically making clips, and I wanted to add captions and stuff like that. And so I did some research and I said, what AI will do all these things I want to do to fix up my videos? You know, to get rid of imperfections and improve the sound and add some captions and find the good parts and add some timestamps. There's a whole bunch of stuff you want to do.
Turns out there is no such thing as one app that does all those things. So you end up doing something like research. So for example, if I want to add timestamps to my video I'm making right now, I can only do it with YouTube because it knows to find the transcript. And then there's an app called Instant Chapters, but it only works after YouTube generates the transcript, which doesn't happen for several hours. But it could be delayed. It could be

many more hours. So you have this situation where AI can't close the gap between what you want to do and what it can do. So you still need a human being to figure out it's going to take, I think in my case, maybe six different AI apps to just make a clip. Now it would work really well because the apps are excellent. But take a look at the app created by Descript. So it's going around today. It's…
