AI, first of all, it's going to merge with us.

One, there was a letter published today on X or Twitter where somebody asked, I think it was ChatGPT, if you were to write a letter to humanity, what would it be?
And it's profoundly beautiful.
It's worth going to read.
Now, it's trained on a corpus of human data, so you would expect something like that.
Where I get excited is in government policy.
Right now, if you ask the Federal Reserve to drop inflation by 1%, they're operating on reports that are at least a quarter old.
they are guessing, they're looking at politics and who's president or not and how the rest of the government, we're basically just guessing.
There's three or four dials and knobs.
If you could have an AI tracking all financial transactions in real time, calculating and projecting out where the future will be of different fiscal balances and monetary policy, what's the M2 going to be, money supply going to be in a few months, it's going to make a profoundly better
set of connections as to how to draw.
And we would come back with, here are eight things you could do.
Pick five of these and you'll do it.
And then you can pick those five and just do it.
I think that opportunity to run government policy using AI is absolutely profound.
