. We're about a year away from robots doing everything that men can do that requires strength. So we don't have the strength thing going for us. But at least we're the only ones who can make sperm. Okay, we're not the only ones who can make sperm now. I guess the scientists can whip it up in the lab. Or whip it up in the lab, if you know what I mean. No, really, it's from stem cells. How do we kno…

that's going to sue somebody for copying the work that was copied maybe from the copyrighted. Okay, it's getting a little confusing. But what seems critical is that whoever has the most money to hire lawyers is going to prevail. And right now that's OpenAI.

Let's see what else is happening. We're also talking about the data security problem and maybe even the persuasion propaganda problem with this DeepSeek model. So as I predicted, it would first of all get sued, and next the government would say, hey, it's too dangerous to have this Chinese spy application. So all that's happening exactly as I said. And the US Navy is banning it. They're going to ban DeepSeek AI over security concerns. So it's basically already being banned. Now who predicted that? I think I'm the only one, right? Did anybody else say, oh, it'll just get caught up in politics and lawsuits and you're not going to have to worry about it? That's what it looks like.

Meanwhile, Alibaba just introduced its own AI. This is brand new. Didn't see this coming. And it claims to be the fastest one, faster than OpenAI and DeepSeek and everything else. That's what they claim. Now, question number two: Am I wrong that Alibaba is a fully Chinese-owned company? And if it's true that DeepSeek may have had access to a lot but a smaller number than the US of those Nvidia chips which seem necessary to at least get going, how in the world is Alibaba creating something that's better than all the other ones? Do they also have a whole bunch of, fake or not fake, but they have a bunch of illegal chips too? How many Nvidia chips made it to China? It feels like that would be exactly the sort of thing we'd have the most control over. But were we sending it to some country that then sent it to China? Because how in the world did they get it? It's not like they're stealing it. So I've got big questions about Nvidia chips and Alibaba. Maybe we'll find that out today.

So as I tell you, I'm always listening to MSNBC for the comedy, and it's becoming more and more hilarious that their only coverage is comparing stuff to Hitler and usually Republicans. So here's what they had today. Today they had their guest who claimed that Trump is trying to make America white again by deporting illegal aliens. Well, I don't know if anybody knows this, but Trump has nothing to do with the color of the immigrants. He doesn't have any control over what color they are when they come in the country. He only has control over not letting non-citizens in the country. But this literally, the guest who has this gray hair that's like pointed like a paintbrush you just dipped in paint, it's so dumb that all he's doing is doing the law exactly the way the public wants them to do it. It's not his fault that the people coming in are more one color than another one. It's not Trump's fault.

And then Joy Reid says that Trump enforcing immigration law is just like Hitler orchestrating the Holocaust. That's all she has. She goes, similarities to what happened in Germany and what's happening now in America are just undeniable. Are they undeniable? History may not repeat verbatim, but it sure does rhyme. Yeah, Hitler rhymes with shitler. So I guess we learned something there. No, you're not supposed to figure out what's true by looking at what rhymes. If I could give you one bit of advice about understanding the world, things that rhyme are largely coincidence. If it rhymes, that's not really telling you anything, but it sounds good when you say it.

Then Tim Walz is a guest on MSNBC, and he says, quote, of course Elon Musk did a Nazi salute. He treats it like it's a fact, and it's the most obviously not a fact thing that's ever happened. Anyway, so it made me think I've never seen MSNBC do sports or weather. I don't know if the TV platform has that. So I was wondering what it would be like if MSNBC started covering sports and weather. Would it still be comparing everything to Hitler? You know, would the weather be, w

ell, looks like it's going to be colder than Hitler's balls today. It's going to be snowing more than the dandruff on Hitler's shoulder. Then they're going to switch over to the sports. It's like that running back, he hit the gap like Hitler invading Poland. And I feel like they would, even for the weather, they'd replace Fahrenheit with some kind of Hitler measure. Well, looks like it's 32 Hitler…
