I mean, I think Gary and Edward both made the point about the sort of sociopathic thread of a lot of this, just sort of like an inability to understand not just what people might want from a technology, I think, which is to feel...
I mean, there probably are people, I imagine, that's like, if you were the guy, the dude that's like trying to age himself backwards, you know, he's like... Brian Johnson, yeah. Brian Johnson, we love Brian. Oh, yeah, yeah, we love Brian. But he, like, I feel like he would have been walking through this clapping his hands with delight the whole time.

It's not bad. It's a high quality plot. But that, it felt like it was that, that there was a lot of this sort of like an optimization unto like transcending being human at all. And I don't think, I mean, again, there probably are people that want that. They certainly have money. I don't imagine that, I think what most people would like

I mean, you don't expect technology to make you feel more human, but something I've been thinking about a lot, we've been talking about this a lot on Better Offline, but there's a passivity that a lot of this sort of seems to be forcing onto people where you're just like sort of things are happening to you that make your life more efficient and convenient. And I don't think that I want that.

I mean, I'm older than and poorer than the market that I think they're aiming for with this, but... It's certainly old enough to remember, as you said, like finding music. Like that's a thing that, you know, your friends tell you about it. And in my case, I mean, again, just being in my middle age, you like go to a store and you flip through shit.

Like there's the distinction between finding something and being given something or being fed something like you're a foie gras goose and it's just getting sort of piped into your brain and life and being. And I think it's an important distinction. I think that little bit of agency of having some sense of, doing the things that you want to do.
