It's a free space. But I mean, I worry about you. I worry about the BBC, because there is this sort of totally naive attitude towards these companies, which is the utopian idea that there's this dude who's coming in from this great, shiny, successful company who's going to teach the BBC how to do it. It has been a long-running set of conclusions we've come to on these shows that...

Sam Altman's latest is called World Coin. I think it might be called World Coin. It sounds like a William Shatner series of novels. Sam Altman's solution to the fact that we don't know what's real anymore is that he's setting up an orb in different places around the world. The idea is you go and scan your eyeball.

and you pass that information to Sam Altman, and then Sam Altman is going to be able to decide whether you are human or an AI in any sort of transaction you need to do. One of their stated aims is that they're aiming to produce a global proof of personhood. Have you got a global proof of personhood, Armando?

How does that work? It's not going to say, no, sorry, according to your eyeballs, you don't exist. Well, yeah, because they are going to use it, because they've already partnered up with various companies, including like Spotify and Tinder, I noticed. And so I guess they're saying, because we've pre-scanned your eyeball, we know whether you're an actual person or an AI. If your image appears somewhere. You know that idea on Twitter. I'm verified. I'm a verified human.

Tiedin, että se ei ollut hän, koska ilmeinen Eliza Carthy puhui ilmeisestä Stuartleesta kuin jos hän ei tunnu häntä. Oliko ilmeisestä Stuartleesta parempi ja parempi kuin todellisesta Stuartleesta? Se oli parempi kuin minulle. Se oli kuin Damon. Ehkä me kaikki tarvitsisimme sitä. Tiedät, mitä olisin tehnyt, jos olisin ollut parempi.

And maybe just the three of us should just stay in this room now. What's worrying as well for the listeners at home is that Armando's put his notes down and he's sitting with his arms folded. He's given up. I know, but I feel I ought to paint a picture because it feels almost like, it feels a bit like a sort of undertaker's sort of holding room. We've got the sort of, are they fake? We've got the sort of flowers and the padded walls. I don't know, it's a...

Onko jotain vihreää tai ei ole, ei ole tarkoitus. Ymmärrät vain, että on kuitenkin molemmat. Eikö se ole podcastin estetiikka, että meidän täytyy asua vihreällä asemalla? Tämä ei ole oikeastaan asemalla, vaikka se on.

Onko se hyvä? Se on hyvä, eikö niin? Kyllä, koska me laitimme sinulle tämän epävarmuuden päätöksen sanomaan huonoa asiaa sinun bossi, Matt Britton. Ja niin hän voisi olla tullut ja sanonut, että tiedät mitä, Amanda, se on loppu. Tai tosiaan hän olisi kertonut yhden minuutin, joka olisi kertonut toisen minuutin, joka olisi kertonut podcastin johtajan, että se ei ole niin hyvää ja ei ole niin hauskaa. Mutta toivottavasti meillä on pre-cancel.

We've got a show for you tonight. Carol Cadwallader is going to be joining us. She's a journalist. She's going to discuss with us the tech brologarchy and how the entirety of mankind, entirety, will be enslaved by a handful of misanthropic data hoarders. Spoiler alert, we don't make it. Speaking of misanthropic data hoarders, Doge,

He's leaving... He's leaving his job to make more family with his time. He, uh, he a lot, I think. Or just has a mail order sperm farm going. I don't know what he's up to. I'm actually, I'm starting to feel bad for this guy. He's been, look at him, he's been there four months. Look at, look at poor Bash. It only took four months to go from this to this.

He went from tech titan, given a mandate to move fast and crush the deep state to guy who had a bad night in Nashville bar he can't remember. He's got that look like, has anyone seen my shoes? He's a little beaten down. He's got that look on his face that I imagine his employees normally have. Black eye, thousand yard stare. This dude has seen some shit.

I'd like to know at least how that happened.

So you're not going to tell us what happened? Do you need a safe place to stay? Look, I believe sometimes do happen when you're roughhousing with your kids, but I'm also sure the one sentence no parent has ever uttered to their child is, go ahead, punch me in the face.
