He's built instead with his co-founder some amazing VR technology.

students are actually partnered with a bunch of these companies where they'll train people in VR, make sure they can get to the point where they're actually pretty proficient and learn a bunch of different stuff.

And they'll have trainers who've done this forever in their company, helping them do it at scale.

And then once they're good enough, they get to train on the real stuff.

And so it makes it so much more affordable to take huge numbers of Americans and get them ready for high-paying jobs.

And he's helping tens of thousands of people.

Hopefully, he'll be helping hundreds of thousands of people soon.

Right on, man.

Yeah, it's a good thing to do.

about esper that caught my attention i love it cloud policy making software i love it malika is an impressive founder her parents are from afghanistan actually she grew up here very pro-liberty lady shows just like i love i think you can be american from any background if you love liberty and you love our country and love our values and she and my wife became friends actually because they're both both interested in policy and they're both obsessed with the regulatory state being really broken and really hurting a lot of things in america there's a kind of a core conservative

value of how you make government less stupid.

And so what she realized when she started this company is that technology and AI can actually make the regulatory state work

hell of a lot better.

So it's a nonpartisan thing, right?

No one wants government to be dumb because it's pretty dumb sometimes.

And so if you're going to make, for example, if you're going to make a regulation, what's the process to make it, to check other states, to learn what's going on, to see what the code is?

What's the process to review it?

What's the process to see how it's working?

What's the process so people in the field know what the regulations are so they can intelligently kind of use them and not just harass people unnecessarily?

So there's a lot of interesting tech to make it all that transparent.
