We had meetings in D.C.
0:01
in May where we talked to them about this,
0:03
and the meetings were absolutely horrifying,
0:05
and we came out basically deciding we had to endorse Trump.
0:08
What did you hear in those meetings?
0:10
AI is a technology basically that the government is going to completely control.
0:12
This is not going to be a startup thing.
0:14
They actually said flat out to us, don't do AI startups.
0:17
Don't fund AI startups.
0:18
It's not something that we're going to allow to happen.
0:21
They're not going to be allowed to exist.
0:23
There's no point.
0:23
They basically said AI is going to be a game of two or three big companies working
0:27
closely with the government.
0:28
And we're going to basically wrap them in a,
0:30
you know,
0:31
I'm paraphrasing,We're going to control them.
0:37
And we're going to dictate what they do.
0:38
And then I said,
0:39
well,
0:39
I said,
0:40
I don't understand how you're going to lock this down so much because like the math for,
0:43
you know,
0:43
AI is like out there and it's being
0:44
taught everywhere.
0:45
And they literally said,
0:46
well,
0:47
during the Cold War,
0:48
we classified entire areas of physics and took them out of the research community.
0:52
And entire branches of physics basically went dark and didn't proceed.
0:56
And that if we decide we need to, we're going to do the same thing to the math underneath AI.
1:00
Wow.
1:01
And I said, I've just learned two very important things.
1:05
Because I wasn't aware of the former,
1:07
and I wasn't aware that you were even conceiving of doing it to the latter.
