The Joe Rogan AI experience. Alright folks, welcome to the Joe Rogan AI Experience, episode number seven. Now before we get started, I gotta make this clear. Everything you're about to hear, see, and experience in this episode, none of it's real. This entire thing was cooked up by AI. Uh the voices you're hearing, not real. Those are all done with eleven labs. The script, that's all chat GPT doing its thing. And the images, yeah, those are from mid-journey. So uh yeah, nothing here is actually me, Steve Jobs, or anybody else you'd think you might hear today. It's all just tech doing what tech does. And listen, we're doing this for fun, for entertainment, so don't go out there and try to use this stuff for anything sketchy or malicious.
All right, we're we're playing around with some wild tools, but there's no place for bad intentions here. If you're curious about the tools we used, links are down in the description. Check them out, dive in, mess around with them yourself, but remember, use them responsibly. All right, let's get into it. And we're live. Fuck. I'm not even sure how this is possible, but we've got Steve Jobs in the studio. Steve, thanks for coming on. Thanks for having me, Joe. It's really great to be here. It's absolutely wild to have you here. You've shaped so much of how how we interact with technology. Well thank you, Joe. What do you think about the state of technology in twenty twenty four?
Well, Joe, you know, it's pretty remarkable how far we've come. When we started Apple, our goal was to bring computers to the masses. Uh and now, uh we have these incredibly powerful devices in our pockets. It's really beyond what we imagined back then.
Yeah, it's it's crazy how much computing power we carry around with us now. Exactly. The iPhone in your
pocket today has more computing power than all of NASA had when they put a man on the moon. It's uh it's pretty staggering w when you think about it.
Yeah, that's wild. Do you think we're using all that power effectively?
Um You know, I think we're just scratching the surface. Um the potential is enormous, but I also think we're facing some challenges.
There's
a growing concern about privacy, about the addictive nature of these devices.
Yeah, I've had guests on in the past who've talked about the negative impacts of social media, especially on young people. Yeah. Um It's pretty fucked up.
Right. Uh uh and that's a real issue. When we designed these products, we wanted to enrich people's lives, not dominate them. Uh I think the industry as a whole needs to take a hard look at how these technologies are affecting society.
So what's your take on where all this is headed? Where do you think technology is gonna be in ten, twenty years from now? I
think we're on the cusp of some really transformative changes. Artificial intelligence for one is gonna revolutionize uh pretty much every industry. We're already seeing it in things like autonomous vehicles in healthcare.
But I think we're just at the beginning. Oh man, AI is fucking nuts right now. It's like every week there's some new crazy shit coming out that just blows my mind. Yeah. Um what's your take on that?
You know, I've I've always believed that technology itself is neutral. It's how we choose to use it that matters. Right. AI is an incredibly powerful tool. And like any powerful tool, it needs to be developed and used responsibly.
Yeah, but are we even remotely ready for what's coming? What happens if, I don't know, half the workforce just becomes obsolete overnight?
Uh
that's a really good question, Joe.
I think we're entering uncharted territory here. Uh throughout history. Technological advancements have always led to some level of disruption. But AI has the potential to automate not just manual labor, but cognitive tasks as well.
Right. It's not just factory workers who might be replaced, but potentially white collar jobs too. It's pretty wild.
And that's going to require a massive shift in how we think about work, about education, about the very structure of our society. I think we need to be having serious conversations about things like universal basic income.
