Lex it’s too bad uv been away from real technical work for so long, it shows

[@adamdymke8004]

How many people thought the title was about Zuckerberg beating Elon in a fight?

[@8thaccount535]

Yes

[@Katie2986]

It hadn’t occurred to me, but I’d pay to watch that - I don’t even care who wins

[@firesidecookie]

Yup

[@keenfire8151]

@@Gittana-ip2ms I like Elon but I think he'd get his ass beat.

[@GodsAutobiography]

This is some quality clickbait. Usually the title is just a lie, but this was only brilliant

[@brectorful]

"Can you elaborate on the value of that question" -What a tremendous question, expertly applied (now stored in my memory banks for future use!)

[@alwaysup22]

Working with this guy must be hell

[@AXharoth]

this guy , hes like this weird genius evil hacker super villain from some movie

[@havefunbesafe]

He’s got that Pharma bro aesthetic about him.

[@revisionfour]

Almost positive this dude takes Adderall.

[@gregpaokfc]

we need Shkreli on Lex

[@jrbling25]

Is Perplexity AI not already an implementation of AI used to site sources? Its certainly not perfect, but i'm not understanding the difference here between that (Perplexity) and what George is talking about.

[@ChaineYTXF]

Finally someone I can listen to at speed x1

[@williamafendya2527]

Of course the AI would win

[@JKW3973]

George Hotz episodes are def my favorite on Lex Podcast 👍

[@pali122]

doesn't Bing already give you the URLs of where it found the information?

[@josephdvorak9241]

Yes, it pretty much does what Hotz describes. I've been finding Bing more and more useful

[@jg5875]

This speaker talks like he’s a genius…but his words are nonsense. His alive vs dead nonsense and his questions on if a CEO can turn off the cash cow (answer is no. They and board have a fiduciary responsibility to max shareholder value)

[@mattstyles4283]

How are they nonsense, he was making an analogy about the AI button

[@damilkk]

this guy reminds me of what sean parker seemed like in the social network lmao

[@freecodyx]

The last part of the clip about google images is interesting

[@essentialrelaxation625]

"Google is dead, facebook is alive" okay then pal.

[@IbrahimAkar]

ChatGPT holds such significance for me that I can overlook its occasional awkwardness. As my usage of ChatGPT increases, resorting to Google for information feels increasingly cumbersome.

[@simonwilson7460]

Pretty sure image recognition in Google is a little more advanced now, based on pixels. There are a tonne of useful (and very dull) patents that Google has filed that show all kinds of thinking on their end.

[@rebornsmith7542]

4:21 I lost my shit at this point. Dunno exactly why.

[@garyluppas8548]

I was watching this video and stopped watching to go read the comments thinking "am I the only one who can't handle listening to his overly confident arrogant complete bullshit anymore" I see your comment and check when I paused mine..... 4:21

[@Anonymoutssdfdddddddd]

@@garyluppas8548 NO WAY. I just checked mine..... 4:21 no joke.

[@AG-lm5uf]

Everyone is going to win. There are many ways to win the race. At the end all are going to reach success.

[@TIM123451ERR]

I don’t agree with all that he says here but very thought provoking 😋

[@Minddrops]

Anyone knows which PG essay he is talking about ?

[@Vincent_Mayers]

@LexClips Please, post the interview with Aleksey Arestovych. A fan from UA.

[@Hypotemused]

He sounds like he is talking about Perplexity AI

[@zacharychristy8928]

"I'm gonna show everyone how alive we are, Im gonna change the game!" Then Zucc proceeds to waste billions of company dollars on an embarrasing joke of a "metaverse" and halve his company's stock price. No, I don't care that he was trying to innovate. You don't get points for making obviously stupid moves just because it's a new move. This Silicon Valley mindset of "innovation" being an ends in itself, and not a means to solve problems is so juvenile and anti-engineering.

[@nicolasdhulst1451]

I think he said 'change the name', no?

[@zacharychristy8928]

​@@nicolasdhulst1451listening to it again, it's hard to tell, but I think you're right, that is what he said. Holy crap, that's FAR stupider though. The idea that the most "alive" thing, the most noteworthy and disruptive thing Zucc did was to change the NAME of the company. Not actually innovate, not make anything new, not solve a problem, but just change the name and try to break into an industry where his company had no experience or talent. Brilliant gambit. Zucc slammed his dick in a car door and Hotz was on the sidelines cheering him on.

[@bobboib-g7e]

I really dont understand how this dude Hotz has that swarm of fanboys, he is so obnoxious and surely think too highly of himself

[@Steinhagan45]

Holy shit, I ain't seen Geohotz in a long time.

[@HotdogFiend69]

This guy is so confidently spouting off opinions that aren't thought out and you can tell how frustrated Lex is. Zuckerberg is going to win because he is so alive? The android man? Google has invested more in AI and robotics and has more hardware and the best researchers in the world. Bard has already massively improved since they released it and it's in their interest to self-improve. They own deepmind, Boston dynamics, and are heavily invested in anthropic. I can't understand how this guy can so confidently just dismiss the biggest leader in AI because Zuckerberg can turn off Facebook and Instagram (he can't either).

[@andrewp5171]

My thoughts exactly

[@zacharychristy8928]

Zuckerberg slammed face first into rakes for several months and Hotz's analysis was that means they're "alive"

[@Psmitty97]

Doesn't Hyundai own Boston Dynamics? Google does have a 6 percent stake in Space X

[@rhoynedev]

Every time I see him in a video I'm shocked by how far removed from reality he actually is.

[@ktg9396]

I think he thought this through, I believe he is referring to Google's ability to pivot. In a way you can liken it to microsoft during Bill gate's era, they knew all the technologies that would succeed but they where bogged down by bureaucracy to make the necessary adjustment to make their products work. For example , microsoft had the touch screen years before apple even attempted to do something similar, yet even now Microsoft has not had any lasting success in the mobile industry despites its tremendous wealth, talent and research.

[@MADMAX7330]

Mans on too much Ayahuasca

[@sck3570]

I really like the vision of George hotz, He is not delusional, he doesn't self promote, he is straight

[@Mart-Bro]

I thought the title meant Vs Elon

[@JimSendre]

the icbm bit is total nonsense.

[@Hempmares]

Face expression = Super Position IRL

[@kompisworld]

I would love to have a guessed which is talking about different personalities.

[@lukem8420]

jesus christ can Lex just show one second of human emotion and or facial expression?

[@nbansal]

Does not have consistent arguments. Jumping from one thought to another

After so many years what had this guy done ? He's still known for hacking the iPhone. Next !!!

Matthew 22 KJV 1-14 1 And Jesus answered and spake unto them again by parables, and said, 2 The kingdom of heaven is like unto a certain king, which made a marriage for his son, 3 And sent forth his servants to call them that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come. 4 Again, he sent forth other servants, saying, Tell them which are bidden, Behold, I have prepared my dinner: my oxen and my fatlings are killed, and all things are ready: come unto the marriage. 5 But they made light of it, and went their ways, one to his farm, another to his merchandise: 6 And the remnant took his servants, and entreated them spitefully, and slew them. 7 But when the king heard thereof, he was wroth: and he sent forth his armies, and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city. 8 Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. 9 Go ye therefore into the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage. 10 So those servants went out into the highways, and gathered together all as many as they found, both bad and good: and the wedding was furnished with guests. 11 And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment: 12 And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. 13 Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness, there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 14 For many are called, but few are chosen.

Elon is too busy achieving. He’s already kicked him all over the business landscape 😂

3:10 - "Can you elaborate on the value of that question."

It ain't gangsta it's called asking someone to clarify.

[@8thaccount535]

Thought this was going to be about Zuck vs Elon in a cage fight.

[@InsanitysApex]

This man's oxymoronic, pun necessary. He doesn't take himself seriously but expects others to.

[@eiwo323s]

Yes, he really doesn't know whether Google will take over, Zuckerberg can't shutdown Facebook either. He would be sued for losing millions. Google was ahead of Zuckerberg before with AI being open source by driving tensorflow. That is kind of dead. Also, how do we know that AI would be centralized via one company and not be decentralized like Bitcoin?

I see in the comments most people think this guy is wacky but I think he's right. Many trashed Mark Zuckerberg's metaverse vision but that's only cuz the media doesn't know what the hell they're talking about. It's not about the visual part, it's about the tools Meta is developing to allow remote interactions, gesturing and visuals so it feels like the person's in the same room. Meta is developing the picks and shovels for remote human interaction that will be the standard and the next generation beyond the little square, flat boxes in our pockets right now. If you've seen the show The Peripheral, that is the kind of interaction everyone will be doing in the future and Meta will own it. It will be worth trillions.

Meta won't own anything. They are notoriously known of stealing ideas/intellectual property. Other companies such as apple will do it better, and with better privacy protection. Meta's garbage will be an ads fest.

[@fernando3061]

Can you elaborate on how shutting google down has anything to do with whatever "being alive" means? Does that make Google more or less alive than Meta? What is this guy talking about?

[@miroslavbekyarov]

it's the idea that there's a person who thinks about the big picture and has the full authority to pivot and make changes, this is the case with Zuck who has majority voting rights. On the other hand Google is a bureaucracy machine that prints money and it's been mostly on autopilot for the past 10+ years. Everyone there even the CEO is just an employee, without enough skin in the game to shift things when needed. In a way Google is dead, because the moment what they currently do stops working it will be impossible to change direction fast enough, think of Nokia and their mobile dominance.

[@lule-ahmed]

He was right its 2024 perplexity is going all in for google pie

[@VijayKumar-dn4pz]

Hotz is a talented programmer. That's all he'll ever be. He doesn't understand anything about business.
