See me, X is working. All right, good looking, good. I got to do the simultaneous sip because I think that maybe some of you missed it. This is the makeup sip. Yeah, it's a makeup sip. Go.
Do you think we can start this all over again? Did anybody even hear me talking about Tesla robotaxis? I don't think you heard anything the first time I tried this. The stream. YouTube is AO. Yay. All right. Well, if you didn't hear it, Tesla's going to have robotaxis, self-driving Teslas, maybe as soon as August. And of course Elon said that self-driving cars are obviously where you should put all your emphasis. It's the obvious place to go.
And here's what's interesting. Twenty years ago, almost right now, twenty years ago, I wrote a book called *The Religion War*. That was a sequel to *God's Debris*. And in *The Religion War* I predicted what life would be like roughly now. And here are the things that are predicted in *The Religion War*. See how well I did? Twenty-year prediction in fictional form.
The number one thing that I said was, uh, not number one but one of the main features was robotaxis. So in *The Religion War* you could use your app and walk out in the street and get in a robotaxi. So far so good. I predicted twenty years from now we'd have robotaxis. Looks like we will.
I also predicted there would be a terrorist cell in every major city in the country just waiting for an attack. Now I think that's actually happened. I think that our open borders allowed Iran and China and anybody else who wants to take a whack at us to install as many terrorist cells as they want in as many major cities as they want. So presumably they're just waiting for war with Iran and then the lights go out or something.
So I predicted that there would be individual terrorist cells all through the country just waiting to be activated. And I'm pretty sure that's the case. Don't know it, but if they didn't send terror cells when the border was open, they weren't doing their job as terrorists.
I also predicted that the drones would be the main instrument of terror. It's not quite the case, but if you had people in every city and drones, I think drones and terrorism are going to be best friends.
And then I also predicted that big data would be used to find the prime influencers. So there would be a way to find who was influencing other people the most, and therefore if you only controlled the influencers you could control everybody else. And indeed our intelligence people have built exactly that. They can figure out who are the influential people specifically so they can either boost them or shut them down, exactly like I predict
