And I really wanted to have this conversation with you today because I want to understand how you're thinking about change.
AI from an opportunity standpoint as an entrepreneur, but also just for everybody that's working in a normal job and who is at risk of having their career, their livelihood, their identity, their qualifications made redundant because there is now an alien amongst us that can do so much.
So this conversation really is about giving people answers.
It's about being honest with them about what's coming.
And it's about preparing them, setting them up so that they have an advantage in the face of the future we face.
So give me the 30,000 feet view.
I would argue that it's more significant because there's two forces that kind of keep me up at night.
The first force is AI, which is you can think of it as just the replacement of the human brain from a sort of productivity standpoint.
And then the other is robotics.
And the problem is they're coming in at the same time.
And I was watching, I don't know if you saw this the other day.
I did, yeah.
So I'll put this on the screen for anyone that's watching the video right now.
But this is a demonstration that took place in China of how advanced their robots are.
And I had to check multiple times to make sure that this wasn't fake.
They are doing backflips and landing perfectly on their feet.
And so when you combine intelligence with the disruption of our physical form, our muscles, our body, our ability to pick things up and move them through time and space...
It begs the question, where do we fit in to all of that?
I was sat here the other day with Dara, who is the CEO of Uber.
He turned around Expedia, made it super profitable, turned around Uber that was losing $2 billion, made it generate about $9 billion in revenue, $10 billion in revenue.
