  Speaker 1: If you're fucking seeing this right now and you are
• 0:01
  Speaker 1: not spending one hour a day minimumly fucking with AI,
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: I don't give a fuck.
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: If it's just chatch ept asking questions.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: And then if you're creative fucking around with all the
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: new shit mid journeys in this and runway and all
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: that shit, if you're not in it, like you are
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: literally your grandma that you made fun of, got it, Like,
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: how old.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: Are you two? I'm forty one, forty three. Perfect.
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: When you guys were fucking with AOL instant Messenger and
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: AOL and then MySpace and you know, cell phone and
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: texting parents, grandparents unks, they weren't about that life. And
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: it was like ha ha, you know, like I'm in it,
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: they're not in it. If you're twenty six right now,
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: let alone early forties and you're not spending an hour
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: or two a day fucking with AI, you are becoming
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: your grandma.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: You are your grandma.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: So all these people are like, no, I don't fuck
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: with that. That's a bullshit. It's you know, here's my
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: favorite thing. When people talk about new shit and they
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: shit on it, on some noble shit, that's to tell
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: that they're too lazy to do the work. I'm not
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: doing AI because I think it sucks up musicians and
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: I fuck with the arts and music and that's fucked up.
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: So I'm out.
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: You're not out because of fucking you're sad that fucking
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: Kendrick Lamar might lose some paper. You're out because you
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: don't want to put in forty hours to learn a
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: new thing, because you're tired because you just put in
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: a lot of hours to learn the last thing. People
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: aren't noble. People are lazy.
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: But people are also scared though too. Us a lot
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: of fear as far as it's going to take my
• 1:47
  Speaker 3: job or it. Some fears are legitimate, right, like we've
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: created something. When I say we humans have created something
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: more intelligent than ourselves that's kind of never been done
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: before in human history. As far as like we don't
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: know how fought AI can actually go.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you something right now, I don't know
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: if you know this, you definitely do this a little joke,
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: come setting it up. We also created a bomb that
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: can kill every person on earth. If the three of
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: us intellects were chopping it up in nineteen fifty two
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: and the US just dropped the fucking bombs several years
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: earlier and blew out Japan and I and we were
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: just chopping it and saying, where the fuck are we
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: gonna do with this thing.
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: If I sat here and said in the next seventy.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Years, no country, no man, no woman will drop that bomb,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: everybody'd be like, get the fuck out of here.
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: We think about what nineteen fifty was. We just dropped
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: the bomb.
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: The last thirty years, we've had two world wars, right,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: so in the last thirty years of society, we just
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: got out of World War One, we just just just
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: had World War Two. The US just dropped this bomb.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: Now Russia's got it and everyone's trying to develop one.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: And I said, in seventy years it will never drop.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: Nobody would believe that. My point of that little story is,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: no shit.
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: People fear. People fear everything.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Humans fear. Most parents parent with fear. Every fucking Let
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: me break it down. I don't love to get political,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: as you guys know. Let me just make it real simple.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: Every politician weaponizes fear. Fear is how you control people.
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: I'm not letting another invention fuck me up, because guess what.
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: When the car was invented people were scared about that.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: Do you know what the word demonizing is? Demonizing comes
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: from when electricity was invented.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: Word on the street, check this.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Electricity gets invented. We have candles in our motherfucking offices
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: and house electricity gets invented, and people don't put electricity
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: in their home because the word on the street is
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: there's demons in it. Like if you bring in electricity,
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: you're bringing demons to your home.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: It's like magic, like just cut a light on. So
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: how are you using AI have.
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: Used it every day to think, to strategize for me personally,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I as I think you guys know, and some people
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: may know. I'm always thinking and then I act, and
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: so I'm trying They're not trying to think of a
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: good one. I already referenced it. I'm fascinated by fashion
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: trends because I think they tell you a lot of shit.
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: So literally, like two three weeks ago, I'm on a plane,
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: caught up my work just on some This is literally
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: And by the way, I audio everything because I'm better
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: with words than writing. So I'm like, I'm like, yo, chatty,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: I call it chatty. So we've been on this baggy
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: trend again nineties, it seems like for the last couple
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: of years it's coming like, can you give me the
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: last forty years on like clothes being loose than tight
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: than loose than tight, and what is your prediction on
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: how long this cycle of baggie will last? And the
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: reason I asked it is to get ahead of the
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: next tight.
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: Wave. Correct.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: So, as an investor, if I see if if so,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: that was just a random thought that I did, and
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: the answers are crazy, They give you like all sorts
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: shit and you go back and forth, back and forth,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: back and forth, and the answer is it gives me
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: really sets me up to think. So, then in two years,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: if I see a new designer, because when I saw
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: Matt Happy, I was like, that's gonna hit Kis watching
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: Ronnie Firm from I'm like, that's gonna hit Sieguman Stables,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: those hats. I was like, that's gonna hit Like I'm
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: starting to think that what I'm good at with the Internet,
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: I should be doing investing in fashion. And so if
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: some young girl comes to me in two years and
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: she's like, I'm you know, I'm going back to like
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: skinny jeans, I might be like Oh shit, it's she's
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: right somewhere next two three years, let her cook, keep
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: it alive, And she's like that. So that's the shit
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I use it for.
• 6:01
  Speaker 4: I mean, you have the obviously you're creative just by
• 6:04
  Speaker 4: naturing right, You've built that throughout your career, and obviously
• 6:07
  Speaker 4: AI helps enhance that for the creatives. But we deal
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: in a world where a lot of these agencies are
• 6:13
  Speaker 4: old school, yeah, and they're not up to date and
• 6:16
  Speaker 4: they don't really understand how they use this. What are
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: your thoughts on them? And I guess this new world
• 6:23
  Speaker 4: of influencer and entrepreneur who are using it and trying
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: to deal with agencies that just don't get it.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: There's a lot here. I'll break that down. I'm going
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: to take a little from over here, bring it all together.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: A couple things first, let there be no confusion. There
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: is pain that is coming with this innovation, but that
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: always happens. Hip hop the music that spoke to me
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: in Jersey in eighty five eighty six. I stopped buying
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: like I would have been if hip hop doesn't come along.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: I would have bought Van Halen and bon Jovi tapes,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: but instead I bought Run dmc Beastie Boys, the fat Boys.
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: Big shout out to them, underrated that that took paper
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: from someone else. When search engines came out, we were
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: you know, I was a little older than you guys,
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: but we were hyped.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Yeahoo, asked Jeeves. And then Google, right, that was good
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: for us.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Nobody cried for the fucking one hundred thousand people that
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: lost their jobs selling the Yellow Pages.
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: This city, do you know me?
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: Motherfucker's job it was to clean up horse poop before
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: the car came out. This city, This the best city
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: in the world that we're sitting in right now. Only
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: one hundred years ago, thousands were employed to clean up
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: horseshit because horses were getting us around and they shit.
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: When the car was invented, nobody cried or they did.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: They wrote article like people talked about it.
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: But there will be pain in this.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: If you're not a thinker, if you're just a doer,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: if you're not the architect and you're just a mason,
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: if you just take direction and you don't use this
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: This is gonna be a fucked up era.
