But you know, media is in big trouble because you can read a smarter, clearer version of the story on the AI tailored for you.

There is a free rider problem here.

Uh I don't know what kind of arrangement we'll come up with.

I don't want government subsidized or government controlled media.

Uh maybe it'll be some weird barbells equilibrium where there's like the New York Times and then there's bloggers and and tweeters and not that much in between.

I don't know.

I do think it's a real problem.

But to make the AI companies pay for everything the model reads, that strikes me as a bad idea and I would rather win the AI race with China than do that.

Yeah, Google has a lot of money.

I'd rather see corporations do it.

Sure.

Bloomberg, where I used to work, both has money and does hire a lot of journalists.

And uh that's very high quality.

Yeah.

So there's a number of models.

I just prefer to keep the government out of it and not to slow down the AI companies either.

People are asleep.

While the disruption may come slowly, it will come.

And I think there's a lot of places, companies with mid tier quality software that will end up devastated, you know, within five years.

Not as quickly as some of the crazy people think, but, you know, within a time horizon relevant for share prices.
