And then you have the people who've invested in one bubble after another, and they can see through all of the fallacies of what's happening with AI.

You mentioned an MIT study where it showed that 95% of the applications saved no money at all, didn't increase profits at all.

And yet their wishful thinking has them continuing to invest.

So much of what you brought up here and so much of reading the book kept reminding me of a guest we had here earlier, which is Theo Baker, who wrote How to Rule the World.

And one of his assertions is that there's a rise of at least amorality, if not immorality, in a Stanford pipeline.

And the students are essentially learning that people are there for what you can wring out of them.

And there's a direct line out of Stanford into Silicon Valley.

I just want to put three things together for you and get a feel on that.

We have everything we learn in your book.

We have everything from learn to how to rule the world.

And then we have this long conversation online at Reddit attributing the growing lack of warmth in San Francisco and on the peninsula to the growth of technology, amorality and immorality.

Can you put those three together?

And you could always say that, well, with our government, we can't count on them to rescue us from all this.

You mentioned the fact, for example, you're not allowed to reverse engineer certain things so that you can get on top of the way they use the equations.

You can't say, well, Expedia is showing you this cost.

They're showing somebody else another cost.

You look at where we are.

now.

And when you look at the inauguration and you look at SCOTUS, you could make the argument that we're in the worst possible place for the government to help us with this at all.

So we are going to turn this over to the audience for questions.
