What is the highlight of human civilization according to Scott Adams?
I need my floor stool though. Oh, there we go. That's good. Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams, and you've never had a better time. But if you'd like to see if you can take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny, shiny human brains, all you need for that is a cup or a mug or a glass, a tank of chalice, a stein, a canteen jug, or a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine, at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better, it's called the simultaneous sip, and it happens now. Go. Exquisite. Let me see if I can fix my glare a little bit. Worse, worse, better. All right. Glare fixed. Well, if you're subscribing to the Dilbert comic, which continues every day, and you can get it on The X platform, just look at my profile and then subscribe.
How does Scott Adams describe the simultaneous sip?
Or you can get it on Locals. You would know that Dilbert's CEO is trying to do a Doge project on his own company, trying to reduce expenses, and he's trying to do it with a scalpel. With a scalpel, not a chainsaw. No, not a real scalpel, but, you know, figuratively. It's not working out. Yeah, it's not working out that well. but you'd have to subscribe to know what went wrong. Now here's some news that is a really big deal to me. It won't mean anything to the rest of you. The rest of you won't care about this a bit. But this is transformative to my actually daily experience. So Amazon is finally coming up with an AI version of its digital assistant. whose name I will not say, so I don't activate yours at home, but A-L-E-X-A.
And, you know, as you know, I've been hooked on that product for a long time. I have one in most of my rooms that matter, including this one. And so my daily life involves walking around. And then when I have a question, I just say it out loud. You know, I just ask my digital device as I'm walking through the room. What time is it? What's the weather? What will the weather be at this time? Where's my package? I always have some kind of little question. Sometimes math, some fact. But it's not great compared to AI. And it doesn't always recognize what you're asking. Whereas AI will be way better at recognizing what you're saying. So my great dream had been that my experience would be like a starship captain in my own house.
$19.99.
What is the significance of Tesla's new patent?
Wow. I'm so glad it's not $20. Because at $20, I would have said, you know, that's a little pricey. But in 1999, I don't know, am I being manipulated? That seems so cheap. Okay. Well, Tesla was granted a patent on some of the self-driving car technology. But what the patent spotters spotted is that it's kind of a broad patent, which means that other self-driving cars seems like they would likely violate the patent. So here's just sort of generally what the patent claim is. I won't read it all, but it's basically a system with processors that look at objects and use a visual to figure out how to maneuver around, etc. And it makes me wonder, is the reason that Tesla got this patent so that they can have a competitive moat and own the self-driving car world, Or, and this would be actually not surprising, could it be, because I think Tesla has a history of giving away their patents or making them available to all. This one's a big one. I mean, this is the patent of all patents.
If they can control essentially the idea of training your car with lots of visual images and then using sensors to predict where the other objects are, that's kind of the entire game. So unless somebody uses, I don't know, only LIDAR or some other technology, which seems unlikely at this point, would they just own the entire category for as long as the patent is on? Maybe. The other possibility is that it's a defensive patent, meaning that the other car companies might intentionally or accidentally be violating this patent, but Tesla could be accidentally violating someone else's patent.
