Ray Kurzweil

And we're asking Larry for a measly $10 million investment.

And we're fine.

That was lunch.

And halfway through, I think roughly Larry says, you know, you could build your vision for the business much better inside Google than outside Google.

What if I just buy you?

I think it was that blunt.

I mean, like 30 minutes into the conversation.

You remember what you said to him at that point?

We haven't really done anything yet, so how would you value it?

Yes, that's exactly it.

And his response was, we can value anything.

And that's how you got your first job.

That's right.

He bought the company, which had value, even though he hadn't done anything.

Alex?

Speaking of value, Ray, I'm curious.

I'm curious, what would you say is your most outlandish take regarding post-singularity, what economics look like?
