Stewart Lee

You know they're all obsessed with longevity in some way or other.

They want to defeat time.

And this company that he's bought and founded, what's it called?

Mergy Brainy.

Is it already worth $500 billion?

I'm quite sure they didn't have vampire in the title.

How much scrutiny of these companies are there, really?

It's definitely more now, but, I mean, we still... I really believe... I'm kind of an advantage because my initials are AI.

I really believe that if I...

kind of set up a shop that just had jars, opened by Stuart in his gorilla hands or whatever, of water filled with just harmless powders.

I could genuinely, legitimately call it AI solutions, and I'm sure I could get funding of half a billion.

It's also murder, I think, isn't it?

There has been a long-running set of conclusions we've come to on these shows that...

People in politics and possibly also in the creative industries are absolutely mesmerized by anyone who comes either from business or from tech, particularly, as if tech is the solution to everything.

And also in the pre-discussion we had about this matter.

Yesterday, you mentioned, you know, against the concern that more and more AI generated slop is being and therefore it's difficult to know what you're reading is whether it's true or whether it's an AI thing.

But the AI companies themselves are offering a solution to that.

One of their stated aims is that they're aiming to produce a global proof of personhood.

Well, and more and more I'm wondering if I am a person.

So I think it would be useful to have, to subscribe to a company that could continually remind me that I'm a person.
