talk about the new structures3300:02:11,480 --> 00:02:17,120I'm gonna begin with what I'm creating my creations what have I been working on3400:02:17,120 --> 00:02:22,080this week what have I what am I looking at what am I creating this week mainly3500:02:22,080 --> 00:02:28,200progression with my new job in the kitchen at Ruth's Chris steakhouse just3600:02:28,200 --> 00:02:32,320learning more about cutting just cutting food cutting potatoes yesterday I cut3700:02:32,320 --> 00:02:39,640about 70 pounds of potatoes I don't know what that equals to in kilograms but I3800:02:39,640 --> 00:02:46,640cut 70 pounds of potatoes and that was insane I've never done that before a lot3900:02:46,640 --> 00:02:54,080of fun more than fun more than a blast I want everyone to be involved with it I4000:02:54,080 --> 00:02:58,160think everyone should cut some potatoes I think it's it's a fun process it's a4100:02:58,160 --> 00:03:05,200fun procedure to memorize the biggest compliment that I got this week was from4200:03:05,200 --> 00:03:11,480one of my co-workers this is like day five right whatever day seven whatever4300:03:11,480 --> 00:03:18,800what it's been a week and this guy his name is Miguel he's like damn cool you're4400:03:18,800 --> 00:03:24,960like the fastest learner man and I guess I was doing well like I've I've committed4500:03:24,960 --> 00:03:33,000to memorizing the procedure of doing things and like it's no different than a4600:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,480play you know it's no different than either like a football play or like a4700:03:37,480 --> 00:03:41,880play in theater that's really how I look at it I'm just memorizing I'm memorizing4800:03:41,880 --> 00:03:47,520movement and that's it I'm right like that's literally it just you're just4900:03:47,520 --> 00:03:52,600memorizing movement where to put the box where to cut the thing when to put the5000:03:52,600 --> 00:03:57,360glove on like you need to know when to do these things and I and all I'm5100:03:57,360 --> 00:04:01,280looking for is the right procedure and there's a correct procedure in the5200:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,320recipe books that that's in the kitchen and so chef is always telling us to go5300:04:05,320 --> 00:04:09,240back to the recipe book books telling me to like what does the recipe say what5400:04:09,240 --> 00:04:13,200does the recipe say and there's like this really interesting balance between5500:04:13,200 --> 00:04:18,040reading the recipe and seeing how someone else does it and making extra5600:04:18,040 --> 00:04:24,720making double making making it 4x whatever so it's been a really it like5700:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,000it's been a challenge like the biggest challenge is the personalities right5800:04:28,000 --> 00:04:33,680just like with with any job so many personalities so many masculine5900:04:33,680 --> 00:04:37,000personalities and just there's just a lot of boys you know and most of us want6000:04:37,000 --> 00:04:40,600to be cool with each other most of us are chilling you know there's some6100:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,320people who might be like a little like negative and there's some people who6200:04:44,320 --> 00:04:47,880might be a bit more positive and there's people who are just trying to stay on their6300:04:47,880 --> 00:04:54,240lane it's just like one big gobbledygook you know like it's like if America is6400:04:54,240 --> 00:04:58,760called like a melting pot a kitchen is absolutely a melting pot you know what I6500:04:58,760 --> 00:05:03,400mean so many different people so many so many different backgrounds and6600:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,320I enjoy being there as far as far as the first week goes I'm really enjoying6700:05:08,320 --> 00:05:11,840being there we'll see how long this lasts you know we'll see what I have to6800:05:11,840 --> 00:05:16,720learn because that's really how I'm approaching it and that's how that's the6900:05:16,720 --> 00:05:24,880only way I can do a job in good conscience as if I'm curious about it I7000:05:24,880 --> 00:05:31,840remember being just so my first job was actually so my first official job was7100:05:31,840 --> 00:05:36,040cleaning carpets for some reason I was just curious about cleaning carpets and7200:05:36,040 --> 00:05:40,800then we knew this guy my family had this guy who cleaned carpets and all of a7300:05:40,800 --> 00:05:44,280sudden I'm working with him and he's paying me cash I was curious about7400:05:44,280 --> 00:05:49,720movies and I still am and so I wanted to work at a movie theater like what's it7500:05:49,720 --> 00:05:52,880like what are what's the movie business like in the movie theater like what do7600:05:52,880 --> 00:05:56,760you got to do for that and I got this incredible learning experience of7700:05:56,760 --> 00:06:03,000customer service and and managing time and and planning when to be at a certain7800:06:03,000 --> 00:06:10,040spot making sure future times are set up smoothly so that the whole system you7900:06:10,040 --> 00:06:15,320know runs well you know sort of predicting resources for the future8000:06:15,320 --> 00:06:19,840that's sort of what the movie theater job is and I've gotten these lessons8100:06:19,840 --> 00:06:25,560these different lessons throughout every job and the only way I can work well as8200:06:25,560 --> 00:06:30,400if I seek the lesson and I don't know what the lesson is yet with with the8300:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,920kitchen with Ruth's Chris but you know it's something about procedure something8400:06:34,920 --> 00:06:39,400about the process I said that last week it's something about the process of it8500:06:39,400 --> 00:06:43,880something about the procedure of making these foods and these dishes you know8600:06:43,880 --> 00:06:49,320I'm right now I'm just prepping the food but soon like I told them upfront I want8700:06:49,320 --> 00:06:52,920to be cooking steaks I want to learn about steaks I want to learn about what8800:06:52,920 --> 00:06:58,120makes a really good steak I've only cooked me on a pan my father has smoked8900:06:58,120 --> 00:07:02,280meats before but I've really never personally I've never really used a9000:07:02,280 --> 00:07:09,040grill I've never used a smoker I've only cooked on a pan and a gas stove or9100:07:09,040 --> 00:07:14,960electric so it's a completely new experience because Ruth's Chris they9200:07:14,960 --> 00:07:20,560they cook their steaks in broilers so no pans no grills as broilers right they9300:07:20,560 --> 00:07:25,800sort of just bake the steak and that's a completely different experience you know9400:07:25,800 --> 00:07:33,640that's a completely like that is a very unique lane to cook meat with so we'll9500:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,640see what that deal is and I'm excited I'm excited to learn that process9600:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,320because the people who are handling steaks like one of them just seems like9700:07:40,320 --> 00:07:43,840a really cool guy like one of them has this like big brother and Lilo and9800:07:43,840 --> 00:07:48,460stitch vibes you know just like this big like Hakuna Matata guy like he's like9900:07:48,460 --> 00:07:51,800he's this taller guy he's a bit bigger like he's just like he's gonna hug10000:07:51,800 --> 00:07:56,240everybody you know he's got he's got that sort of energy like I got him10100:07:56,240 --> 00:08:00,360cooking steak so I want him to teach me that'd be so cool so we'll see how that10200:08:00,360 --> 00:08:05,480goes I want it to go well I wanted to like connect with the beef initiative I10300:08:05,480 --> 00:08:10,000want it to be able to like I really want to be able to use some sort of10400:08:10,000 --> 00:08:16,920opportunity to like to somehow affect the system of the restaurant affect the10500:08:16,920 --> 00:08:23,720system of food because you know the negative side of the job has has mainly10600:08:23,720 --> 00:08:31,840been seeing somewhat the preparation I'm not saying anything is is like dirty10700:08:31,840 --> 00:08:37,120but in terms of like my algorithm like I don't like seed oils right I don't like10800:08:37,120 --> 00:08:41,840canola I don't like safflower I don't like any of these different plant-based10900:08:41,840 --> 00:08:47,920seed oils we're putting canola oil on everything you know I don't think the11000:08:47,920 --> 00:08:54,320steaks thank God definitely not the steaks but I was told to put like a just11100:08:54,320 --> 00:08:59,920like a dash of canola oil in the pot of pasta so that it doesn't clump together11200:08:59,920 --> 00:09:05,520in the fridge you know we got to put like we're dipping the baked potato in11300:09:05,520 --> 00:09:10,600the canola oil we just have these gallons we have like 10 gallons of of11400:09:10,600 --> 00:09:15,480canola it's like insane of course canola is everywhere you know like nobody11500:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,800really cares about canola but like once you do the research you know once you11600:09:18,800 --> 00:09:23,000really go down the rabbit hole of how inflammatory that these seed oils are and11700:09:23,000 --> 00:09:27,320like I have the perspective that it's the seed oils that have that are the11800:09:27,320 --> 00:09:33,200underlining cause of people's obesity you know I don't really think people are11900:09:33,200 --> 00:09:38,680unhealthy I think the foods that that they think are healthy just have bad12000:09:38,680 --> 00:09:43,200ingredients I think there's bad ingredients that are whipped up together12100:09:43,200 --> 00:09:51,360and sold and marketed as healthy and so it's no like it's not a bad thing people12200:09:51,360 --> 00:09:55,560think they're just buying a baked potato they don't and people in the kitchen12300:09:55,560 --> 00:10:01,840aren't even aware of this canola oil situation you know this is just like it's12400:10:01,840 --> 00:10:08,880like a pain point one pain point I'm feeling you know I'm interested to12500:10:08,880 --> 00:10:13,480somehow figuring out maybe I can get management to look at the beef12600:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,680initiative and maybe there could be a situation where the company could buy12700:10:17,680 --> 00:10:22,920from more local areas like is that even possible but what's so interesting is12800:10:22,920 --> 00:10:27,160they broke down the the types of cuts that they're looking for and the type of12900:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,800marbling that they're looking for you know I've never really dove into one13000:10:31,800 --> 00:10:37,400what is a restaurant looking for in a steak there's a specific type of look13100:10:37,400 --> 00:10:43,840there's just there's an aesthetic to it and they're looking for corn fed they're13200:10:43,840 --> 00:10:50,200looking for corn fed cows and they take pride in that you know so so I'm working13300:10:50,200 --> 00:10:57,760within a 20th century mindset when it comes to buying beef and you know I've13400:10:57,760 --> 00:11:01,800thought about this for a second you know there's a when you go down the carnivore13500:11:01,800 --> 00:11:05,200rabbit hole when you go down the meat stuff when you look for the best13600:11:05,200 --> 00:11:09,880sources of meat you know it's clear that you know the farms that practice13700:11:09,880 --> 00:11:15,080regenerative of farming are better for the earth and for them for the animal13800:11:15,080 --> 00:11:23,480going to more local sources you're going to get a better product and and the13900:11:23,480 --> 00:11:28,000opposite of that the corn fed stuff is always pointed to as what's keeping14000:11:28,000 --> 00:11:35,840people unhealthy and I just have a slight suspicion with that this right14100:11:35,840 --> 00:11:43,000now in my life I'm not willing to like say that corn fed beef is bad it might14200:11:43,000 --> 00:11:48,680be objectively on healthier because like the general idea is that fat like an14300:11:48,680 --> 00:11:55,000excess amount of fat is unhealthy but in terms of the meat affecting us and how14400:11:55,000 --> 00:12:03,840our bodies absorb animal fats I am just like I don't think the fatty beef is14500:12:03,840 --> 00:12:08,280really harming people I really believe it's the seed oils I really believe14600:12:08,280 --> 00:12:15,680it's the seed oils in the bars it's in the sodas I think it's the sodas I think14700:12:15,680 --> 00:12:19,640it's all liquids you know what I mean I think what's what's getting people14800:12:19,640 --> 00:12:24,920inflamed and unhealthy and what has people confused is that there's so many14900:12:24,920 --> 00:12:33,640liquids that are put into foods that are taught as to be benign and syrups aren't15000:12:33,640 --> 00:12:37,880very like worried about like like you shouldn't care about syrup you15100:12:37,880 --> 00:12:40,080shouldn't really care about the oil that's in it you shouldn't care about15200:12:40,080 --> 00:12:44,800you know all this stuff and so these things are just use these things are15300:12:44,800 --> 00:12:51,880used in a casual manner and it becomes just a normal and so if I can have any15400:12:51,880 --> 00:12:56,920impact like I'm not trying to like take over the business you know but I like I15500:12:56,920 --> 00:13:01,160have this passion for food and I have this belief of like these things are15600:13:01,160 --> 00:13:06,920really harming people and if the ingredient is better than more people15700:13:06,920 --> 00:13:12,640will come like like Papa John's had it better ingredients better pizza Papa15800:13:12,640 --> 00:13:17,560John's you know like that shit's real like that's a real business statement so15900:13:17,560 --> 00:13:21,640I'm learning about all that I didn't know I was gonna go down to such a deep16000:13:21,640 --> 00:13:26,800thing but um yeah I'm learning about all that I'm seeing that and I'm fascinated16100:13:26,800 --> 00:13:33,120so we'll see where it goes I like it so far long story short I like it the other16200:13:33,120 --> 00:13:37,120list on the creation side on what I'm doing what I'm creating I'm currently in16300:13:37,120 --> 00:13:43,840post-production for MMFT magic mushroom fun time those things are interchangeable16400:13:43,840 --> 00:13:48,240I'm just messing around with mid-journey if you're on the fountain app right now16500:13:48,240 --> 00:13:54,040or on any podcasting 2.0 enabled app you can see the images right now these are16600:13:54,040 --> 00:14:01,400my pre-production mid-journey AI images I'm doing my best to just get images16700:14:01,400 --> 00:14:08,560written down just get images in the computer downloaded for Christ's sake and16800:14:08,560 --> 00:14:15,080to begin to figure out how I'm gonna what's the 3d of what I'm thinking16900:14:15,080 --> 00:14:21,000what's the 2d what I'm thinking I have these drawings I have about 12 so I have17000:14:21,000 --> 00:14:28,000these index cards right and and these 12 index cards are the are the original17100:14:28,000 --> 00:14:34,120frames are the original storyboards for magic mushroom fun time and so I'm17200:14:34,120 --> 00:14:39,000trying to expand on it and I'm I know that I want to embellish on like waves17300:14:39,000 --> 00:14:46,320and vibrations and frequencies and I know I want to tell this story with tell17400:14:46,320 --> 00:14:52,400the story of a one boys psychedelic trip you know that's sort of what I'm aiming17500:14:52,400 --> 00:14:58,960for I want what I'm looking for is the story is there's a guy having an17600:14:58,960 --> 00:15:07,200experience on mushrooms and it's a fun whimsical Fantasia esque thing and it17700:15:07,200 --> 00:15:13,800and it and it begins to form like a rough picture of something a rough17800:15:13,800 --> 00:15:20,240picture of a character maybe a rough picture of I don't know just like17900:15:20,240 --> 00:15:26,320movements or maybe I don't have that part like down yet but it's going to18000:15:26,320 --> 00:15:31,600lead into my fantasy world there's going to be a bridge within this short film18100:15:31,600 --> 00:15:38,160this animated short film is going to be a bridge from my internal thoughts into18200:15:38,160 --> 00:15:43,360the world okay I don't know why I want to do that but I want to do that I just18300:15:43,360 --> 00:15:47,680want to create this the cinematic bridge from like what was in my head this like18400:15:47,680 --> 00:15:53,280this beautiful chaos infinite possibility ability in my mind and have18500:15:53,280 --> 00:15:58,560it and and tell the story of this world forming with this world that I want you18600:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,440know I don't I don't even have it yet but that's let's walk there I want this18700:16:02,440 --> 00:16:09,120short to be this moment or we all walk there together and I think that'd be18800:16:09,120 --> 00:16:14,320really interesting you know I I want everything to be the story you know I18900:16:14,320 --> 00:16:20,560want everything to bleed into the next thing my favorite part in the movie Rogue19000:16:20,560 --> 00:16:25,680One that came out in 2016 is when they lead it's the very end when when they19100:16:25,680 --> 00:16:31,000lead right up into Star Wars Episode 4 the original one a new hope they lead19200:16:31,000 --> 00:16:39,180right into it and I don't know why more people don't do that so that's like the19300:16:39,180 --> 00:16:42,440main idea that's the main inspiration with this thing and you know19400:16:42,440 --> 00:16:47,600pre-production is interesting because you're still so free I have the concept19500:16:47,600 --> 00:16:52,400down I have the concept for the fantasy world I have a rough idea for how I want19600:16:52,400 --> 00:16:57,320to accomplish the animation I've spoken about using blender and that's going to19700:16:57,320 --> 00:17:03,720happen but there's also this amount of fear that's within this short film so19800:17:03,720 --> 00:17:10,080the process enables me to work through that fear the process of making a short19900:17:10,080 --> 00:17:14,920film enables me to work through that fear so I'm holding on to that I am20000:17:14,920 --> 00:17:19,600saying that for perpetuity I'm saying that for you if you're creating anything20100:17:19,600 --> 00:17:26,880the process of whatever you're creating is there to work through the fear so if20200:17:26,880 --> 00:17:32,120you're afraid right now if you have any anxiety if you have any any doubts if20300:17:32,120 --> 00:17:37,720you have any negative energy surrounding the life you want the project you're20400:17:37,720 --> 00:17:44,360making the moment you're in continue with the process continue to be humble20500:17:44,360 --> 00:17:50,440continue to learn to seek the lesson continue to seek the lesson and whatever20600:17:50,440 --> 00:17:55,080you're you want to create is gonna be there I believe that hundred percent20700:17:55,080 --> 00:18:02,160brah hundred percent um all right main topic main thing I want to talk about so20800:18:02,160 --> 00:18:07,760my creations are sort of leading into like the innovation that I see within20900:18:07,760 --> 00:18:12,960the world right and while we're talking about movies and short films and how I'm21000:18:12,960 --> 00:18:19,280gonna make it I'm just scrolling around here and I'm just seeing I'm trying to21100:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,600get the best info on the AI right because one thing that can happen when21200:18:23,600 --> 00:18:27,080you're online and you're looking for information about certain topics you can21300:18:27,080 --> 00:18:32,040fall down the rabbit hole like there are these certain rabbit holes of people21400:18:32,040 --> 00:18:36,840who just don't matter and people who really have zero positive things to say21500:18:36,840 --> 00:18:43,440or they just have nothing of value to say but they somehow get you with their21600:18:43,440 --> 00:18:48,520emotions that they somehow like you can get stuck in some people's feeds and it21700:18:48,520 --> 00:18:55,160can be super annoying super annoying so I'm always looking for another podcast21800:18:55,160 --> 00:19:02,640I'm always listening to the random episodes of things and I found this one21900:19:02,640 --> 00:19:08,120podcast from this company called sanctuary AI they are a robotic company22000:19:08,120 --> 00:19:14,000and it was two employees speaking with the CEO and they were just discussing22100:19:14,000 --> 00:19:18,200the advancements with robotics and what they're doing and they were talking22200:19:18,200 --> 00:19:22,760about AI they were discussing chat GPT they were discussing general use22300:19:22,760 --> 00:19:30,960robotics along with general use AI versus a specialized situation what are22400:19:30,960 --> 00:19:37,840the possibilities there and this company they're focusing on general use robot22500:19:37,840 --> 00:19:45,240it's the general humanoid robot and their discussion went into AI and one of22600:19:45,240 --> 00:19:51,840them begun to discuss about movies and what the intention is with with what22700:19:51,840 --> 00:19:57,040we're trying to accomplish with with this type of technology beautiful custom22800:19:57,040 --> 00:20:01,480movies that are generated through text descriptors so I could say make me22900:20:01,480 --> 00:20:05,640another Dungeons and Dragons movie but this time make you know Vecna the bad23000:20:05,640 --> 00:20:12,040guy though those sorts of things are coming but like Suzanne was inferring23100:20:12,040 --> 00:20:17,200before I also don't find that interesting because it's not the problem23200:20:17,200 --> 00:20:21,120that we've set out to solve you know creating beautiful music movies from23300:20:21,120 --> 00:20:25,960text is a very interesting thing and I will use it when it comes to pass but23400:20:25,960 --> 00:20:31,520it's not centrally related to intelligence and I think that the the23500:20:31,520 --> 00:20:35,400the bait and switch or the Mott and Bailey that's been played recently is23600:20:35,400 --> 00:20:39,200that people are confusing what large language models and transformers and the23700:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,120rest of these things these sequence prediction models do with human23800:20:42,120 --> 00:20:46,280intelligence they're not the same they're not even related they don't think23900:20:46,280 --> 00:20:52,640that's totally right they're not related and his perspective speaks to this24000:20:52,640 --> 00:21:00,760larger narrative of AI will not ruin art or AI even though AI might be24100:21:00,760 --> 00:21:08,440technology might absorb jobs technology might absorb certain practices it's not24200:21:08,440 --> 00:21:14,320intelligence and the biggest blockbuster is not going to be some just AI24300:21:14,320 --> 00:21:21,120generated two-hour movie you know there's there has to be human intention24400:21:21,120 --> 00:21:27,360for it to be interesting I think that's the real key here that's that's the side24500:21:27,360 --> 00:21:36,360I see I see the use of AI only being legitimate if there is a human intention24600:21:36,360 --> 00:21:44,760with it is it possible that AI can be this this created veil that we can push24700:21:44,760 --> 00:21:50,160through and we can create anything because right now the negative side is24800:21:50,160 --> 00:21:59,280AI is like is this overarching dark cloud coming over all of us but this the24900:21:59,280 --> 00:22:06,800positive side is it is simply a threshold for us to create it is simply25000:22:06,800 --> 00:22:14,760just another like it is inevitable that it is it is coming up along with it is25100:22:14,760 --> 00:22:24,600just here it can simply be here and we can use it to benefit us we don't have25200:22:24,600 --> 00:22:29,760to give it everything we don't have to give it our art we don't have to try to25300:22:29,760 --> 00:22:33,600allow technology to take over what we want to create that doesn't make any25400:22:33,600 --> 00:22:41,320sense is the best restaurant going to be some like AI robot restaurant you know25500:22:41,320 --> 00:22:45,360like they got this like all robot McDonald's out right now not sure if you25600:22:45,360 --> 00:22:50,160if you've seen that like there are certain places that are experimenting25700:22:50,160 --> 00:22:55,480with less humans but when I'm looking for an experience when I'm looking for25800:22:55,480 --> 00:23:01,920whether be in like okay let's just let's just say blank space blank space fill in25900:23:01,920 --> 00:23:08,760the blank I'm looking for information okay I'm an individual looking for26000:23:08,760 --> 00:23:15,640information and that could be whether it be documents it could be media it could26100:23:15,640 --> 00:23:23,480be food you know food is information for the body I don't want AI to be creating26200:23:23,480 --> 00:23:29,320everything I I want there to be a human perspective so what does the future look26300:23:29,320 --> 00:23:36,120like when you're when you want a human perspective but a human has access to26400:23:36,120 --> 00:23:40,920create any image they can you know I don't know what that looks like but26500:23:40,920 --> 00:23:49,920that's that's the more like what's the movie her that's the more her situation26600:23:49,920 --> 00:23:54,600where AI is sort of just like it's everywhere but it's nowhere everyone is26700:23:54,600 --> 00:24:00,040using it but you don't really see it you know and it's not really like a bad26800:24:00,040 --> 00:24:05,040thing it's not really a good thing either it's just like a thing that people26900:24:05,040 --> 00:24:10,680are using just a thing that's happening in the world and that seems to be more27000:24:10,680 --> 00:24:17,240more level-headed on the other side of the spectrum we got these other people27100:24:17,240 --> 00:24:21,840who are saying that we need we absolutely need guidance we need27200:24:21,840 --> 00:24:30,160counsel we need the ability to control it which is maybe a little maybe I'm27300:24:30,160 --> 00:24:34,880applying a bit too much emotion onto it but I found this other podcast with with27400:24:34,880 --> 00:24:40,600the CEO of open AI Sam Altman he was just talking with the Congress he's27500:24:40,600 --> 00:24:45,920been abundantly clear about like how there needs to be oversight how there27600:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,880needs to be guidance and he doesn't know what the answer is and his company27700:24:48,880 --> 00:24:55,440doesn't know what what the solutions are and I think this is recorded either a27800:24:55,440 --> 00:25:01,160week I think it was recorded like a few days before he went up to DC and he's27900:25:01,160 --> 00:25:04,220speaking with this guy he's speaking with his Buddhist and I guess these two28000:25:04,220 --> 00:25:08,840guys Sam Altman in this and this Buddhist guy they've been meditating for28100:25:08,840 --> 00:25:13,240like a year together or something and this guy he's just like they both live28200:25:13,240 --> 00:25:17,200in San Francisco you know so we got a San Francisco Buddhist talking about28300:25:17,200 --> 00:25:24,400what should be the right path for AI development oh this guy's name is28400:25:24,400 --> 00:25:31,000Jack Kornfield okay Jack Kornfield the San Francisco Buddhist is giving his28500:25:31,000 --> 00:25:36,920thoughts on how we can better use and develop AI one thought that a number of28600:25:36,920 --> 00:25:42,600us have had is first that there should be a group of the key players like Sam28700:25:42,600 --> 00:25:48,200and the heads of some of the other AI things and one dream some of us had28800:25:48,200 --> 00:25:59,400would be someone like Barack Obama would be kind of one dream some of us had28900:25:59,400 --> 00:26:04,080would be someone like Barack Obama would be kind of the coordinator of it because29000:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,840I don't think the government's gonna get to it soon enough but to bring together29100:26:07,840 --> 00:26:13,560the key players and say all right let's start here what kind of boundaries do we29200:26:13,560 --> 00:26:18,120want to set or what kind of slowdown or what kind of organization do we want to29300:26:18,120 --> 00:26:24,120make to help steward this so that's a step yeah that's a step in the wrong29400:26:24,120 --> 00:26:29,320direction how is Obama not the government I'm so confused um that's29500:26:29,320 --> 00:26:35,440seriously what like why would Obama want to like okay I understand why he wants29600:26:35,440 --> 00:26:40,280to be involved but what why is this guy's like first take Obama why is this29700:26:40,280 --> 00:26:44,560guy's first thing like we need Obama you know who needs to gather people together29800:26:44,560 --> 00:26:49,880Obama like dude I don't know what to tell you dude but it's just not 200929900:26:49,880 --> 00:26:55,280anymore it just isn't and I'll ask Sam in a second does that make sense to you30000:26:55,280 --> 00:27:01,640and then the second is that group may indeed look for a council of elders and30100:27:01,640 --> 00:27:07,880others who are willing to be whether it's ethical or moral guides and so30200:27:07,880 --> 00:27:12,800forth but in some ways the players themselves have to come together so30300:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,840nothing's happening in other words nothing's going on things really30400:27:16,840 --> 00:27:26,520happening I really don't think there's gonna be any like AI council I don't30500:27:26,520 --> 00:27:32,160think there's gonna be any overreaching overlords doing anything like with that30600:27:32,160 --> 00:27:36,840I think it's just gonna I think it's gonna be a mix of chaos and business as30700:27:36,840 --> 00:27:41,120usual we're just moving into this new world like there's this new technology30800:27:41,120 --> 00:27:46,480with uncertain economics and you know like I don't know what's gonna happen I30900:27:46,480 --> 00:27:51,760really don't know what will happen but I don't think it's the Buddhist idea I31000:27:51,760 --> 00:27:56,000don't think we're gonna get Barack Obama together and he's gonna pull together31100:27:56,000 --> 00:28:01,080the brightest minds of American history and we're gonna figure out AI like31200:28:01,080 --> 00:28:07,720that's not gonna go down this is not gonna happen I simply do not believe it31300:28:07,720 --> 00:28:15,440do not believe it the last thing I mean okay I have nothing to say about it31400:28:15,440 --> 00:28:20,440honestly the last thing is Bitcoin Miami 2023 I don't have any clips I was gonna31500:28:20,440 --> 00:28:25,640play a Robert F Kennedy jr. clip but then he really just didn't say anything that31600:28:25,640 --> 00:28:34,520important like he support okay so first of all who at Bitcoin 2023 speaking on a31700:28:34,520 --> 00:28:40,800stage is important for Bitcoin okay the most important thing for Bitcoin is a31800:28:40,800 --> 00:28:47,280person running a node and a person using the Lightning Network and people using31900:28:47,280 --> 00:28:50,560tools that engage with Bitcoin and people sending Bitcoin around to each32000:28:50,560 --> 00:28:55,000other so it doesn't it doesn't matter if anyone's speaking on a stage but the32100:28:55,000 --> 00:29:02,480most interesting person this year was our RFK jr. Robert Kennedy and I was32200:29:02,480 --> 00:29:06,960happy to hear that he's into into Bitcoin and I'm happy that he's like32300:29:06,960 --> 00:29:12,480pro freedom but honestly you got to listen to the speech if you have any32400:29:12,480 --> 00:29:18,240opinion on Robert Kennedy jr. tell me a few people I'm following online or like32500:29:18,240 --> 00:29:22,160riding his dick already like they want to vote for him like they want him to be32600:29:22,160 --> 00:29:27,600president I don't really care about Robert Kennedy jr. like I like I do but32700:29:27,600 --> 00:29:32,040I don't I care about the name I don't care about the legacy I care about the32800:29:32,040 --> 00:29:39,800future oh there she is Shannon hello Shannon32900:29:39,800 --> 00:29:53,560reporting just so you know anyway I just want my present to be under 60 years old33000:29:53,560 --> 00:29:58,680is that too much to ask Shannon I want my president to be under 60 years old is33100:29:58,680 --> 00:30:06,720that too much to ask I think RFK knows how to work an iPhone he knows Bitcoin33200:30:06,720 --> 00:30:11,160I'm talking about how Robert Kennedy jr. knows Bitcoin you know that yeah he33300:30:11,160 --> 00:30:16,800likes Bitcoin so maybe he's an option Shannon likes him so33400:30:16,800 --> 00:30:20,000Shannon's gonna vote for him33500:30:20,000 --> 00:30:32,840sorry okay sorry sorry sorry sorry sorry roll tape roll tape back rewind scratch33600:30:32,840 --> 00:30:37,960it Shannon's not voting for the Democrat33700:30:41,560 --> 00:30:46,880I'm voting for the golden retriever dog that's the mayor of Idlewild in33800:30:46,880 --> 00:30:56,240California that's anti-feline Shannon I think you need a step away33900:30:56,240 --> 00:31:04,360anti-feline I don't like you right now anyway who likes RFK honestly is anyone34000:31:04,360 --> 00:31:08,920gonna vote for our RFK jr. is anyone really gonna do this like 2024 is gonna34100:31:08,920 --> 00:31:16,440be a while dude Bitcoin 2023 was barely exciting so Bitcoin is exciting we keep34200:31:16,440 --> 00:31:20,360developing things with Bitcoin dude this podcast keeps developing things with34300:31:20,360
