And he said, but he doesn't go far enough.

I think we should get 50%, and I think we need to have government control over the boards of these companies.

Yes.

And what I found in my reporting on that story is that the people who really didn't want to talk about it were the Fortune 100 CEOs.

I think it's two responses.

The first is they're actually really scared.

that it's going to come for them?

They're scared that they look at their investments in AI and they know what Wall Street wants.

Wall Street wants growth.

And if they can't show growth through using AI in their products, they can grow by shrinking their workforce.

And so they are desperately afraid that that's something that they're gonna do and that it's gonna be really, really unpopular.

And what I would say is like, I was impressed.

They were aware that they're not acting alone and that if all of them do this at the same time, the consequences for the country are gonna be enormous.

However,

If they don't do it, they're going to be the ones out of a job because the street expects certain things from these public companies.

And so that's why I actually think it's really important to show people what the positive uses of AI are, because we're going to have this moment, and it's not going to last very long, when we can demand and insist on certain kinds of AI in our lives.

If we try to take on all of capitalism, I got bad news for you.

It's had a 400-year head start, and that boulder is rolling down the hill.

And sometimes we've directed it, and sometimes we haven't.

But I wouldn't take that on.
