Lex is too romantic for his own good. War existed, exists and will exist for good or for bad
Could Elon Musk and Bill Gates increase their influence in cooperation?
ElonGates?
So, I should get into a face-off with a chimp?
Being a Hamasexual is not encouraged in the LGBTQ+ community, apparently.
What movie is he whistling on in the beginning?
"An "eye for an eye" could theoretically leave the one-eyed man as king in the land of the blind." The Dajjal
Thanks Lex and Elon,
I now am very careful of limbo limbic dancers with the agility and hormones of Pan troglodytes.
We nearly went deep! Just couldn't stay on topic long enough ๐
Elon obviously can see into future. Just openAI exploded ๐ 1:28:00

No it's not internal it's world wide information Gathering…. And it's really not for fun….
While it could be true that a simulation would be made because there are unknown outcomes, the rules that govern the average television show are fairly known, yet the market survives after its *death*. The simulation could satisfy the low level curiosity of the simulator. Death here represents the idea that the meta-shape of the latent-space for story ideas is approximated but not fully known. The rough shape is enough for some, & unseeable to others.
Just a counterargument to the idea that we are an expensive simulation. We could easily be a fairly cheap simulation.
Multi planetary no, no we are not worthy of it. Imagine humans becoming multi planetary. We will duplicate what we are doing to ourselves right on earth. Killing murdering beyond the stars. Noโ human nature is to kill each other. An kill everything we canโt control. Itโs usually people such as those who have it all on earth. Humans have too much greed.
Elon for president
Elon got too much time
Send Elon Musk (lex Luther) to permanent space.
Both were essential to add content on relevant topics in human and robotic existential problems and their individual existential processes. Thanks.
The real life Toni stark
The way we approach science applying it to our planet is if we try to fix the car while driving it. We need another planet to try making it better and leave our planet alone ๐
Nothing better to cheer me up that to hear Elon speak about the certainty of human annihilation.
Great show. I could listen to Elon for hours. Great interview. It's great to see Elon so relaxed and having fun in an interview. He is a remarkable man. I'd love to meet him one day. Definitely head of the table at my ultimate dinner party.
Have on Bashar
My opinion is the nature of happiness should come not from the mind but by the spirit within us โฆ. Artificial anything is not the answer to our spirit , programming the mind take our freedom away to choose which spirit we choose to follow
Well if theyโre not aliens then what are they? We know โTheyโ exist. The question is what are they?
Elon, why not offer the same advice to "turn the other cheek " toward Russia and Ukraine leaders as you suggested to Isreal??
why doesn't EM mention that the UN in ukraine was what made putin go to war
military industrial complex and pharma running the show
It seems the meaning of Life is taken from the Creator:" to love the Lord with all.of your heart, mind and soul and to love your neighbor as yourself". To glorify the Creator and not the created. This may seem a bit simpilifed, but that is the point: it is intended to not be difficult, so man, in his finite mind, can grasp it.
Promoting McDonalds and Coke a'Cola should be banned.
โthereโs no ME in quantum MEchanicsโ – Lex Friedman
Great interview, was fascinating from start to finish.
the first time I've seen lex fridman ask questions without looking like he gone drop asleep he must of drunk some coffee before hand
Are you the one texting with me on telegram lex fridman?
Thank you for this podcast he's the carroll Shelby of out generation

These are extraordinarily phenomenal results with respect to sharing the ideas of two people on the planet. If I can believe the figures presented with respect to views. My gut instinct responds with newfound reluctance to the efficacy and veracity of this post. Like Howard Stern's interactive response to real time events in New York City on 9/11/01, fast reacting policy may be determined by focused yet arbitrary commentary over current world events. The sincerity of this dialogue may not be questioned, but the response from the mob, as with twitter and now X, is chock full of surprise as well as intrigue.
When once a private conversation remained private and mostly inconsequential, it now may effect the entire global social environment in an unspeakable manner. Interestingly, the middle man, YouTube, most likely will activate its own response with imaginary algorithmic effect, which when actualized, will become an altogether incomprehensible animal. To whom much is given much will be expected, is more than a trite cliche. Yet, with the velocity of contemporary informational afferent tendency, accountability for its genesis is already gone in the blink of an eye, and its drift potentially paradoxical in outcome.
Lex and Elon have achieved god-like status. These expressed considerations undoubtedly provide impetus for actions beyond their own private culpability. Yes it is exciting. With anticipation we wait expectantly – or activate and coordinate future eager means. Self gratification has become attendant to our addictions to hormonal feeding frenzy. However, the tide will turn. With it, momentum will build somewhat predictably, but the infinitude of probable possibility will only reach fruition and critical analysis consequentially – the concomitant reverberations to be felt eternally. I pray that the one and only God, Father of all mankind, bask in the Glory of His desire and that we see this Light in all of its luminescence.
happen to have any relation to lex luthor?
o be the most powerful chimp in the world… Somehow, I gotta get my hands on Elons balls.
Elon looks bit like Robert Downey Jr's Iron Man / Tony Stark
