Stephen Hawking

That was really sad when that happened.

I said Stephen Hawking.

It's not sad now?

Ha.

...

there would be some way to see him relay, somehow, maybe it's using eye, maybe clicking like Stephen Hawking used to talk with his finger.

He's, he's done.

He...

I, uh, won't tell you my long personal story, but I started to learn, uh, computer science as a teenager from my, uh, my sister's first husband, who was a professor, and developed a passion for that.

Was also very inspired by reading biographies of big scientists like Stephen Hawking and Bill Gates, and was trying to figure out, you know...

I, I knew maybe I wouldn't become one of them, but how to, to follow their paths.

A lot of things evolved in my life.

Thank you, sir.

You know, we've heard the warnings from Stephen Hawking, the likes of Mo Gadot, who postulated that up until recently, all of the technology that we've developed has basically been a tool, and we use those tools.

Gadot says, well...

When we reach the point of, not we, when AI reaches the point of singularity, we will become slaves.

So what was the uh-oh? Let me tell you what the uh-oh was.

The developers of this artif- And by the way, the original guy that developed it, he was on 60 Minutes two, three years ago saying, "Hey, I w-" Stephen Hawking was like, "Hey" before he passed away.

He's like, "This could be more powerful than a nuclear weapon." And I'm gonna tell you why.

I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I'm gonna jump into philosophy a little bit here, but this, Chris, was the uh-oh.

So many.

With, with Eddie Redmayne, who played Stephen Hawking? Unbelievable.

And he, he won an, uh, Academy Award for Best Actor, obviously, because of it.

No.

So if you, uh, watch it that, uh, once Jay gets off the phone, he's going to look up the, uh, movie-

He will

... with Eddie Redmayne about, um, Stephen Hawking.

Someone will know.

That said- That's the thing.

You see that once, I'm, n- I see that once, I don't need to test any more shorts ... that said, do I look like Stephen Hawking? Can you see me? A little bit.

That, that said- It's giving Stephen ...

this room is so fucking hot.

I'm gonna get up again.

But- I'm happy you're feeling better ... you know what I just realized? Ugh.

Stephen Hawking spells it P-H. Yeah.

You know, as if he didn't have enough problems.

that is why I love it.

But then we get into an interesting sequence where Jenny Lewis kind of retreats into herself, just goes to the library a bunch and is reading like Stephen Hawking books.

And you're like, oh, she's into like theoretical physics.

Very smart for a like 13 year old.

The closet was the safe place back then, you know?

And all this heavy shit she brought like creates like a super massive wormhole, right? That's heavier than anything else on earth.

Because we learn from one of these Stephen Hawking books that that's the only way to travel through time is to use...

A wormhole that distorts our reality, right? Yeah,

Now, these concerns are not new.

They come from the likes of the late physicist Stephen Hawking and other Nobel laureates, including the godfather of AI, Geoffrey Hinton.

And now the heads of Anthropic and OpenAI are all calling for AI development to slow down.

But there is a greater danger from artificial intelligence if we allow it to become self-designing, for then it can improve itself rapidly and we may lose control.
