People buy phones and laptops.

If you're really balling, you buy a new laptop every couple of years.

And you're constantly looking for new processors, new innovation.

Is it AR?

How big is the battery?

What's the battery?

And it's constantly going in this general direction of ever-complex technology that interfaces with human beings and now with AI.

And it's going to be an artificial life form.

And whether it's 10 years from now or 20 years from now or it's already happening in a fucking lab in Ohio.

Yes.

It might already be happening right now where they have an artificial life form.

And that's going to be the new dominant life form on Earth.

It'll be far smarter.

It hopefully will coexist with it.

And wouldn't that motivate you to make...

the most complex thing a human being has ever made.

100%.

We have this distorted idea of what is like a fiercely competitive person.

When we think of fiercely competitive people, we only, for whatever reason, consider basketball players, football players, baseball players, fighters, athletes, race car drivers.

We consider fiercely competitive people the people that are engaged in sports and activities every day.
