You know what maybe I do want those farmers to pick themselves up by their bootstraps 😂 /s

I tried watching the Drew Gooden video, but honestly couldn’t finish. I’ve been pretty tapped in with LS, the FT, Big A, How Money Works, multiple Substacks, and it’s just kind’ve compiling all the things I’ve been reading into one video, with some mustard on it. I love Drew Gooden, but I was already pretty convinced of what macro economic troubles the regular person is facing. Also, don’t worry. I’d never take you chuckle fucks as my primary source ❤️

This library story is the reason why America will never elect Gavin Newsom.

fr. they made it sound like a universal 1A thing, but the fact that it sounds so gd Californian destroys his credibility in every other state sucks, he has everything else needed to be president. i just want a hot one again lmao

LLM technology clearly has uses, but if 95% of "AI" investment is going towards the goal of eliminating labor costs and only 5% is being put towards Protean folding, DNA sequencing, etc., then I think the point in Drew's video stands. I don't, personally, know what that ratio is, but I didn't hear you make that argument, one way or the other, either.

TRUMP CAN NOT MAKE ANY TRADEDEALS IDIOTS.

Dougdoug has become a joy to listen to

I zone out a bit when you talk about the same thing with the same points as a Big A clip I know it's not feasible to avoid those topics or only have new takes, and a lot of people probably don't watch Big A every morning, but I just wanted to say it incase others felt the same. Maybe many Patreon people also watch all the Big A stuff

Jacob Cote

I think that's my issue with Doug's attitude around AI. Like yes, the tools can be used for amazing advancements in like healthcare, but to me it feels more and more obvious that those kinds of projects aren't what the companies want to focus on. They seem to want to focus more on making money, and things like replacing middle managers and streamlining workflow is a lot easier to sell to a LOT more companies than any directly beneficial ressource for regular people.

Bugs Bunny was never the same after the CNN gig

Steven Dessers

They talk about Trumos tradedeals. Only congress canmake tradedeals. I hope you are not American...

KJ

But I feel like that is just like the argument against things like food stamps and Healthcare. That being people will abuse the system but we accept that so that the people that really need it can get the help they need. I agree with Doug that AI can do a lot a good and we shouldn't ignore that because others will abuse it for personal gain.

Eddie H.

You are misunderstanding my argument. ~90% of Food Stamps end up being used to help people buy food. If ~90% of AI investment is going to projects that cure cancer, etc., then it would be a similar situation. I don't know what those numbers are, but the specific the ratio does matter for this discussion. Seems like a great topic for the gang to research for a segment

Youtube has been trying really hard to get me to watch the Drew Gooden greed video and I just can’t muster up the energy to watch it like I used to. It feels like most of his recent videos like the gambling one are big into “no shit” territory for me. I only have so much time in my day I don’t need another video complaing about billionaires how about you get off the screen and start organizing

Hey stand! Great episode! If ya'll take future topic requests I'd love to hear about the protests in Honduras. I have a coworker who had to come back early from a mission trip there due to the unrest and havnt heard much outside of that

I think a big point about AI you're not fully getting is that yes, there are incredible potential benefits and actual benefits currently, but the vast majority of the population does not have that experience. For the vast majority of people, AI is an annoying often wrong answer on a Google search, or slop on social media. But they are feeling the pain of increased energy prices, noise pollution, and an overall decrease in the quality of day to day life. Until the positives are felt outside of the boardroom, people will continue to criticize AI as a "try this one simple trick to increase sharholder value". Also with the AI medical stuff, very important question, is it covered by insurance?

Eli Shriner

I saw the Drew Gooden video, I thought it was generally good that someone that mainstream was mostly right even if the AI stuff was weird

AndrewVT

The problem is alot of the downsides of AI are hitting us now. While we haven't gotten the upsides yet. I also dont really trust these big companies to do the right thing with the upsides either.

The amount of Ads on spotify is actually fucking abysmal, i love this show and am constantly waiting for the next episode, but the egregious amount of ads and unnecessary sponsers is making me reconsider my support for this show. You guys are already wealthy, you have an enormous amount of patreon support, the partnership, ads, and sponsorship is just greed.

Lemonade Stand

I'm not tryna change your mind about the last part (I disagree ofc) but if you want more info about the ads, there's a FAQ video on Patreon you can watch that probably answers a lot of thoughts around it. This week was, annoyingly, a week with no booked host reads, so you heard those shitty filler ones, but for the next like 2 months the inventory sold on the show is mostly reads by us. That may not assuage your specific feeling here but I've noticed comments like yours mostly as a reaction to the Spotify filler ads that we don't do ourselves, so I figured I'd at least offer this info. - Aiden

Doug calling China “Bidena” 🤣

I also haven't watched it, not necessarily because it's no shit, but he is who I want to watch talk about a silly movie and check out of life for a few minutes, while I appreciate that he is exposing viewers who maybe are less plugged in to this stuff, it's just not for me.

Fin

Thanks for taking the time to reply. It just saddens me to see the enshittification of anything i like happening in real time. Wish i could just give you more money for ad free episodes, but i imagine that would violate your contract. Anyway, thanks man.

Oxide Computer Company has a really high-quality podcast (I think Doug, being a tech person, might enjoy some episodes). They have an episode about AI that pretty much summarizes the problem with any AI discussion: https://youtu.be/rOIDw38CEu8?si=Gg2pM5jYkKvS1Tzx My attempt to TL;DR it: "Given that this is a legitimately new technology, the range of applications is so broad that any discussion requires such nuance that having it on the internet is nearly impossible." It's fractals all the way down. I'd also add: a lot of people openly hate big tech (reasonably), and AI discourse has become a convenient vehicle for that.
