Yeah

... 2024 also, um, we talked about this.

And when we talked about it, the whole time, just to show you, we were laughing the whole time because it was sort of like, "Isn't this funny? Ha ha ha.

Our parents are on, on Facebook and being fooled by this stuff," right? Fast-forward about six months.

It was like six to eight months after that.

I'm getting to the fires thing.

Um, I'm on Instagram and, and the fires, fires are still happening, right? The fires are still happening here in LA.

Yeah.

Mm.

"Who's that?" And so obviously not everybody's tapped in with this.

I think they...

I, I, I would hope that more people would, and I think Natasha, precisely what, what you're talking about and what's being discussed in this court case is something that you see in, frankly, a lot of Sam Altman's projects.

I mean, look at one of them, World Coin, right? Which is now, uh, Tools For Humanity, which is, you know, these orbs, right? One of the stated purposes originally of one of, one of his projects, um, was to provide UBI, universal basic income.

Um, so AI, AI's going to take everybody's jobs, and so in order to prevent the damage or, you know, mitigate the damage that'll come from that, let's make sure that everybody in the world is getting, you know, a, a basic income.

And of course, they started by going to places like Kenya and scanning everybody's eyeballs.

Yeah.

Every once in a while, a revolutionary product comes along that changes everything.

The Steve Jobs microwave is, Steve Jobs famously said, we're gonna get to this, but famously said that any microwave should only have, I think, like, two buttons, which is the plus 30 second button-

Mm

... and the start button, and that's it.

And I saw that online somewhere and I said, "You know what? This actually makes a lot of sense." And then I got curious and I started looking it up.

I don't think this dude said that.

I, I'm sure.

Yeah, the VTuber fans like the fact that there is a human.

They like the fact that it, not everything is perfect.

They call it scuff.

Like, every stream, there's gonna be something that goes wrong, you know, the motion capture goes wrong, whatever.

They like that sort of thing.

But do they care about AI in an advertisement? Maybe or not.

I, I, I, that's, so that's where I'm kind of torn.

[chuckles]

Okay.

Yeah, no, fair.

Fair.

That, that'd be an expensive and kind of risky publicity stunt.

Okay.

This kind of does remind me of something that happened in the past, actually.

Right

Yeah.

This is another person here, somebody, it took them five years.

I mean, truly incredible stuff.

Russ said, "Okay, that's great but what can I do to make it so that other people don't have to deal with accidental accessibility? What can we do to build this into the game?" So Russ has actually entered, truly entered the game industry.

I mean, he's really, really fighting out there and doing some truly incredible stuff but we were walking around and he said, "Hey, you want to try my glasses?" I put 'em on and these are, you know, these are smart glasses and as we're walking it's telling me, "Off to the left there is a cafeteria.

A sign says cafeteria.

Off to the right there is a bi... there's a bicycle possibly laying on the ground."...
