And the son just said...

Well, who reads books these days?

You just listen to the stuff.

So he was studying all the material through podcasts and prepared for the test really well.

So as human species, we are adaptable.

I think when you mention AI,

we now are at an inflection point.

And in fact, an essay was written that actually won the New York Times Essay Award last year by Ashen Brenner, who talked about AI and its transformative impact on humankind.

And one of the graphs talked about

um how long does it take for uh something to double the economy so he looked at hunting for example for hunting it took quarter of a millennium to double the economic impact but then as new and new technology was introduced it took less and less

So when you look at scientific discoveries, it takes about 60 years.

So that's on the order of a lifespan.

For technological advances, it takes only 15 years to double the economy.

And now with AI and super intelligence on the horizon, the question is, are we really at this inflection point where the growth of human progress has been increasing at a steady pace and now

it's about to take off in ways that we can't even imagine.

Thank you so much for having me.

What a pleasure.

And I look forward to staying in touch.
