I remember my son's meeting a famous client of mine who, let's say, is, was the richest man in the world, et cetera, at that moment.

And my son at three years old, how much money do you have?

Yeah.

But it held no offense because it's this little kid.

All it can be is real.

There's nothing but real in the little kid.

And so where I think optimistically about AI, which definitely has some problems for the human race for sure, but where I think optimistically about it is I think it's good for people to question reality because what ultimately is it?

What is it?

If this is a simulation like Elon makes a good argument for,

And I think he leans in that direction, by the way, and sometimes I do too with him.

If it's a simulation, then we want to make it interesting, and we want to be a bit outside.

In a simulation, we're not vulnerable, right?

The spirit, the soul, the energy that animates us will continue.

It's not going anywhere.

And it lets us witness this experience rather than feel victim to it, right?

We get to, this is a good movie, and we wouldn't go see a movie if we knew the outcome.

But this movie is really good.

And so when I look at AI things, and trust me, I don't know about you.

You're younger, so you may have better instincts or intuitions for it.

But I genuinely can't tell sometimes.
