Please give a very warm welcome to the brilliant Jessica Tarlove and Scott Galloway.
Scott Galloway 0:17
Okay, well, so today or tonight we're gonna do a few things in three parts. We're gonna talk, we're gonna do sort of an abridged Raging Moderates podcast, talk about the political environment. Then we're gonna talk about Justice Book and then we're gonna take
Unknown 0:36
Mm.
Scott Galloway 0:41
That's the name of the book. I disagree, winning arguments without losing friends. Okay, so we wanted to step back and talk about where we are politically, and I think the two biggest stories today. uh in the news are AI and uh Canada specifically Канада deciding it's an abusive relationship and hooking up with someone else. Um So Jess, let's start there. Uh AI anxiety. How do you think, or if and how do you think this AI anxiety might impact the midterms?
Jessica Tarlov 1:16
Well, I want to start out by saying thank you guys so much for coming and doing this. This we've done this once before and it was so fun and it was in raging moderates infancy, and we just had two years anniversary, um, which feels like a milestone. And it'll be fun to talk about the book. I want to talk about the politics because the politics fuels the book anyway. Um, but just an enormous thank you. Uh you guys are the most incredible listener base and so loyal and we love all the feedback, even the mean comments actually, uh which Scott is more sensitive about than I am. But
Scott Galloway 1:51
Cause I get I get them. She doesn't Jess is great. She should dump Scott. Let me just summarize every review. Seriously, really? Anyways.
Jessica Tarlov 2:02
So it feels as though AI is rapidly becoming the sleeper issue for the election. And It started off with data centers and everyone was kind of like, What's going on here? And people were showing up at town halls and saying, I don't want one in my backyard.
Unknown 2:19
Yeah.
Jessica Tarlov 2:20
Kind of nimbying the whole thing. And then it started expanding and they started talking on the hill about regulation. And what do we do? Should we have a moratorium on data centers, then moving up to we're gonna regulate superintelligence? And the whole time. The elected class on the Republican side was ignoring the voters who said from the jump, we don't like this. We don't, and I think all of it has to do with a general anxiety about change, which happens when any big innovation comes into your life. But we were saying yesterday on Raging Moderates from the new New York Times poll that the only issue that Republicans had an advantage on was AI. But it was just two points. So within the margin of error.
Jessica Tarlov 3:04
And then you look at that in the context of the fact that over 70% of Americans think that we've got to regulate it. And you look at what's Trump what Trump is posting, you know, you're gonna be backwards and poor, full steam ahead, the Jensen Wong call. you gotta think that this is a really big gift for Democrats. But my question to you about this is how can they stick the landing? Because the answer isn't To regulate it into oblivion. It's to find some way to have the progress and the good stuff that comes with it and the innovation. And they're talking about being able to cure every kind of cancer

with
Jessica Tarlov 3:47
it, but make sure that people. aren't rioting in the streets because data centers are showing up and they think that there's a ten to twenty percent chance that we're all gonna die in the next few years. So what does that dying look like?
Scott Galloway 4:02
Well, I'll come back to what diamond looks like. Um There's a sweet spot of regulation, and that is We still have opiates. We still use them. They're still actually a very productive drug. Бо ви в десяти регуляти там анатобігам до пло. Who appear to have signs of addiction and not to have an economic incentive around increasing more and more opiates, we are finally starting to increase social media. Big tech is a net good for society. Fossil fuels are a net good for society, so are pesticides. But we have an EPA and an FDA. And there is no equivalent organization. For AI and as you are. I'm getting called And I'm I'm bragging, but it's true 'cause I'm desperate for your affirmation.
