some people could come back just not the Hamas fighters. And maybe you'd have to. It could be that it would just recreate the problem. So if we decided never to do that, not we but if they decided never to do that it wouldn't be unconscionable. It would just be a practical decision.

All right so that's the question. We should tell Iran they have to take them because it's their problem not anybody else's.

The chief of the IMF, the International Monetary Fund, over at Davos I think was saying according to Breitbart that Europe should be more like the US. And I think this is all from Trump. I don't think they would have even said this before. So the European economy as you know has lagged behind the US by quite a bit. They've invented practically nothing. And so the head of the IMF said the time has come for Europe to collectively look across the Atlantic and follow the US lead as it grows in confidence daily under the leadership of President Donald Trump. No I think that's maybe Breitbart's take on it but the actual quote is the United States has a culture of confidence. Europe has a culture of modesty, Georgieva said. I guess she's the head of the IMF. Quote, my advice to my fellow Europeans is more confidence. Believe in yourself and most importantly tell others that you do.

Okay do you think that the problem, do you think that the big problem between Europe and the United States is confidence? Do you think maybe they got that backwards? Do you know what would make Europe confident? Winning. Winning makes you confident. You know what makes you not confident? Losing. Losing to somebody else. So could it be that their real problem is structural meaning that they have red tape like crazy. They have government in everybody's pockets. They don't have basically everything's wrong. They don't have I don't think they have the venture capital structure that we have in this country. If you fixed all the structural wouldn't Europe have success and wouldn't success make them confident? Probably. I don't think that we that America somehow raised a bunch of confident people independent of success. There are people like me who are confident before they're successful but I think I was just born that way. I don't think it has anything to do with America. Don't you think there's some confident people being born in Europe? Like none? What they have some kind of weird genetic defect that affects all the nationalities in all of Europe? They all have the low confidence genetic defect? Or do the schools teach them not to be confident? It seems more likely that there's a structural problem and if they fix that the confidence would follow. But that's just speculation anyway.

What else is happening? According to Michael Shellenberger the CIA under Biden broke the law by not releasing its analysis of the Wuhan lab. So I guess the CIA already had that opinion that it was probably the Wuhan lab that was the source of the leak. But by not releasing it which would be their job if it weren't for Trump the truth may not have come out. All right that's interesting. So we do need to look into that.

Meanwhile Britain has a firefighting robot that can spray 2,000 liters of water in a minute according to Interesting Engineering. Huh. A robot that can spray 2,000 liters of water. Well luckily there was a video so I could see that the robot was not a humanoid robot because if it had been a humanoid robot that could shoot 2,000 liters of water the question I would ask is where is the water coming out of? Because I just imagine this robot. Now never mind. You could do the joke in your own head. I don't have to explain it.

Did you know that John McAfee who died a few years ago allegedly by his own hand is back in the form of AI? So I guess his X account which I think is managed by his widow says yeah this is real. It's really an AI of John McAfee. I guess it talks like him. You know it has his attitude and everything. And he's launching a crypto coin. Of course he is. So that's interesting. I wonder what software they're using for that because I kept wanting to make an AI me but I don't think the software is there yet.

In other news Perplexity, the app, it's an AI app that I keep telling you is great and it is great. You should use it. It's one of the best things honestly. You know I tried a whole bunch of AI apps and every time I got disappointed. It's like oh I thought it would do something more than that. But when I tried the Perplexity app for searching and asking questions oh my God did they nail that. They nailed that like just about nothing I've ever seen. So in terms of execution a big shout out to the Perplexity AI team. You guys are geniuses. My God the just the quality of the app because I use it. I use it a
