That's the NVIDIA CEO that went out there.
He, he's like, "Hey, guess what? Math, okay, yeah, the kids don't know math now, but there'll be something, noth- something else their brain can do.
It'll go on something else.
Like, for example, I don't know my address or my phone number." And it's like, "Okay, okay dude, I, I don't think you're proving your point here."
Yeah, this is wild.
"I think you're making people even more unsettled." [laughs]
Yeah, this is wild.
Actually, guys.
When you sent me this, uh, this story and I read it, I'm like, "Oh, that's not encouraging at all." Um, NVI- how would you...
To somebody who didn't know what NVIDIA as a company was, how would you d- didn't they start in, like, video game technology? And-
Oh, yes.
Right, right, graphics, yeah.
And now they're the, the primary company that's making the chips for the data centers driving AI, right?
Yeah, they found that basically the same technology that makes re- you know, the most realistic video games happen is also well-suited to doing all the... 'Cause that's really a bunch of mathematics and number crunching in its own way.
Yes.
Doing, uh, video graphics, so it translates well over to AI, and, uh, thus that makes consumer electronics, especially computers, a lot more expensive.
Just throw it on the pile, add it to the list.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
You know.
So they're, th- so NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang is, probably needs some PR coaching Uh-
I would say so
... because I've seen a couple of interviews, and this, this article includes one of those interviews where it's almost like he's saying the quiet part out loud, that, uh, he admitted, like you said, that he didn't know his zip code or his address, and found that that information, um, wasn't a sign that our brains are getting smaller thanks to AI.
That it was a sign that, no, now we can open ourselves up to be better systems thinkers.
