  Speaker 1: A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring,
• 0:07

  Speaker 1: Let's Square handle the back end so you can keep
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: pushing your vision forward. The conversation is starting to shift
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: a little bit as people becoming more aware with AI,
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: and it's going into the world of robotics. Like you
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: just talked about large language models machine learning, but robotics
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: is kind of picking up steam around conversations. We saw
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: what happened with Tesla. Open AI has now created a
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: humanoid that has come into inside the BMW plant and
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: it's taking some jobs. How fast and how abruptly do
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: you think humanoid or human robot? Well, the humanoid robot
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: will be implemented and how I shouldn't say afraid, but
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: how aware should we be that this is the next
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: evolution of it.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: Well, you know, Elon Musk wants that to be his
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: next you know, trillion dollar business right now. And the
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: thing about the humanoid robots is the technology is already here.
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: I think the process of adaptation is getting people to
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: a point of normalcy with them, right you know, of course,
• 2:51
  Speaker 2: you know, knocking out all of the bugs and the
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: tinkering issues that's going to come along with you know,
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: adopting robots in these environments. But we really looking at
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: the next two to three years right for the rolling
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: out of it and seeing how people respond and then
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: the regulations that's going to come along with it. I
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: think one of the bigger things when it comes to
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: the robot, when it comes to AI period, is looking
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: at regulation and how it's going to hurt small businesses
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: because the people that the government is calling on to
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: do the regulations is going to be the open AI
• 3:23
  Speaker 2: is going to be the Microsoft, going to be these
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: large companies that are building out these large language models
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: and these large AI models, and they've already trained it
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: on your data, they trained it on YouTube data, they
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: trained it on all this data and then they're going
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: to regulate it so that the average engineer coder can
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: then go do the same thing, so that they won't
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: be able to compete. So as we go into robots, yes,
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: the robots are going to come and take mundane tasks
• 3:51
  Speaker 2: oriented jobs, right, and quite frankly, in a lot of
• 3:55
  Speaker 2: different situations they should. I think humans need to augment
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: themselves and get deeper into what it means to be human.
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: But in some of these things is going to get
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: dystopian because they don't really care about people. It's a
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: profit based system. They're going to be doing a lot
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: of factory work, right, They're going to be doing a
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: lot of low paying job work. And you know, Donald
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: Trump called it black and Hispanic jobs. You know what
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: I'm saying, The robots are going to be the ones
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: come and taking those black and Hispanic jobs. The AI
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: is going to be the one come and taking those
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: black and Hispanic jobs. So you ain't got to ware
• 4:33
  Speaker 2: about no immigrant to anything else, you feel me. The
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: thing that you should be focused oning is how do
• 4:40
  Speaker 2: you prepare yourself in a future where AI and robots
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: and quantum computers exist? Because focusing on slowing it down
• 4:50
  Speaker 2: is not going to change anything. Focusing on preparing for
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: it right, developing the skills, thinking about the new businesses,
• 4:58
  Speaker 2: the new services that will be needed in that future.
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: Humans will always be needed, right, We don't even want
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: the future to wear it's a complete matrix and machines
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: running everything. Humans will always be needed. I think that's
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: the thing that we need to focus on. But yes,
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: robots are here, right, And for me, thinking about the
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: future is only prepared for it. It's not being scared
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: of it. It's not having this fearful idea of it.
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: None of that. We have to decolonize our minds of
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: the future and asks ourselves what do we want it
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: to be, because then we also determine the future by
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: planning for it. So how would we use robots is
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: the question?
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: Right?
• 5:40
  Speaker 2: What value could they bring to us? And I'm not
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: in a deep necessity for robots because I think that
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: the task that robots do are you know, very factory
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: and they're going to be super expensive. So the average
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: person is not going to be using those type of robots.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: Average person's going to be using home robots. And I
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: looked at the CS show and looking at the ones
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: that they're rolling out. They're talking about simple tasks within
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: the home that people are going to be using the
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: robots for. People are going to be using companion robots
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: right for loneliness. That's happening with people today, and I
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: think that's probably going to be one of the biggest
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: use cases for the average person because loneliness is on
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: the rise. The average mail out here is lonely. They
• 6:20
  Speaker 2: ain't got nobody, right, and so you know, I see
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: people becoming friends with robots and building companionship and that
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: being one of the biggest retail aspects of the robot industry.
• 6:37
  Speaker 4: That's a fact. We'll bring Ian up for a question.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: But while we bring waiting for Ian. You know, it's
• 6:42
  Speaker 4: crazy you say that becausehen We we was in Davos.
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: They had this guy who dropped out of Harvard and
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: he created an uh an app for companionship AI companionship
• 6:54
  Speaker 4: and he received raised a bunch of money in his
• 6:57
  Speaker 4: seed round and that was the whole purpose of it
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: is as far as being a companion he kind of
• 7:01
  Speaker 4: explained why AI companionship was needed, and it was so yeah,
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: no matter how you feel about it, that's something that's real.
• 7:08
  Speaker 4: But Ian you did, and.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: They got our only fans Ai companion app already. Yeah.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: I think it's called uh. I think it's called slow.
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: I wrote it down in my notes when I saw it.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: I said, I'm gonna remember this one. But it's spelled
• 7:21
  Speaker 1: with an X so x O U L.
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: It's on you man, keys, my brother, how are you?
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: I wish I could uh, you know my action was
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: a little bit better. Man, Good to have you here.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: But but I do think automation, of course is needed.
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: We talked about this before, maybe two or three years ago,
• 7:47
  Speaker 3: and like you said, I don't think we need to fear.
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: We need to find out where to use it because
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: the truth is that these software and systems and hardware,
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: they're going to be here regardless, and there are going
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: to be the next sectors that really dominate the mark.
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: I don't know what a open Ai would be worth
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: when it goes public, but it will easily enter that
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: top ten, top eleven. So we just have to find
• 8:08
  Speaker 3: a way to be able to use it and integrated,
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: because they're going to make sure that that technology is
• 8:11
  Speaker 3: here in our lives the same way that the iPhone
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: came in in two thousand seven eight nine and dominated
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: our lives from there.
• 8:19
  Speaker 4: That's a fact.
• 8:20
  Speaker 5: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child
• 8:24
  Speaker 5: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador
• 8:28
  Speaker 5: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with
• 8:32
  Speaker 5: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just
• 8:36
  Speaker 5: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President
• 8:40
  Speaker 5: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United States
• 8:43
  Speaker 5: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over
• 8:52
  Speaker 5: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: were here illegally, your next you will be fine nearly
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned and deported, you will
• 9:03
  Speaker 5: never return. But if you register using our CBP home
• 9:07
  Speaker 5: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.
• 9:10
  Speaker 5: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,
• 9:15
  Speaker 5: border and families will be protected. Sponsored by the United
