00:00:25
place. Why don't you just talk about it,
00:00:26
which is we were sort of like almost
00:00:29
basically never Trumpers. If you started
00:00:31
with that, that would be amazing. Let me
00:00:32
start with that. Yeah, that's good.
00:00:35
That is a beautiful suit. Pattern is
00:00:37
very subtle. I might even have We have
00:00:39

cloth. We appreciate you and uh although
00:01:07
we all uh believe that we are the most
00:01:10
important part of this forsome, we all
00:01:13
know that I as the lead singer really do
00:01:16
need to bring it today. So we pray to
00:01:19
you Jesus to inspire me to say something
00:01:22
funny for each panel and for Saxs to be
00:01:25
interested in something other than
00:01:28
politics and for Friedberg to not have a
00:01:30
panic attack. Chumaf we pray that our
00:01:34
flows drape us properly

00:04:42
three. Band still together. Can you
00:04:44
believe it? Can't believe it. little one
00:04:46
of the odds and I think is our is our
00:04:49
first speaker here. This speaker is not
00:04:50
on the program. Not on the program. But
00:04:52
I did notice there was a little bit of
00:04:54
security here
00:04:55
today. Little extra
00:04:58
security. Above and beyond
00:05:01
security pain in the ass security. Uh
00:05:04
please welcome me in joining vice
00:05:07
presidential candidate Jamie Vance.
00:05:09
Welcome to the Lion's Den. Been a big
00:05:12
fan of the pod for a while. I think my
00:05:13
first appearance. So it's good to be
00:05:14
with you. If you look at the real
00:05:15
innovation of the American economy, it's
00:05:17
been in the world of software. If you
00:05:20
look at where the economy has been most
00:05:22
stagnant, it's been in basically the
00:05:24
heavily regulated parts of the economy.
00:05:26
When I think about tech, one of the
00:05:27
things I'd like us to do is broaden the
00:05:29
aperture a little bit. Ladies and
00:05:30
gentlemen, Katie V.
00:05:38
The idea that I'm going to change my
00:05:40
vote because someone else wants me to is
00:05:42
never going to happen. If you find
00:05:43
someone with whom you agree with 100% of
00:05:45
the time, either they're lying to you or
00:05:47
you're not thinking for yourself. Give
00:05:49
up the heroin needle of prestige. The
00:05:51
way to change those institutions is not
00:05:54
to give money to those places or join
00:05:56
the board of them or delude yourself
00:05:58
with the idea that you can transform
00:05:59
them from within. It's to build new
00:06:01
things. And in building new things and
00:06:03
creating competition, it forces the
00:06:05
other people to change.
00:06:08
Welcome to your new boss. Like, what do
00:06:10
you mean? I said, that's the guy you're
00:06:11
going to work for. like we just bought
00:06:13
his company. I said, "Yeah, he kicked
00:06:14
your ass with little resources out there
00:06:16
in the market. You're going to learn
00:06:17
something from it." Yeah. Welcome to New
00:06:19
York Boss.
00:06:28
They wondered if there was a better way
00:06:30
to find information on the web. On
00:06:31
September 15th, 1997, they registered
00:06:35
Google as a website. one of the greatest
00:06:38
entrepreneurs of our times. Someone who
00:06:41
really wanted to think outside the box.
00:06:43
If that sounds like it's impossible,
00:06:44
let's try it. No introduction needed.
00:06:48
I just agreed to this last minute, you
00:06:50
know. I don't know where you pulled up
00:06:51
that clip so fast. You guys are team is
00:06:53
amazing. Kind of amazing. This is kind
00:06:55
of amazing. I didn't actually understand
00:06:58
to be perfectly honest. I thought you
00:07:00
guys just kind of had a podcast and like
00:07:02
a little get together or something, but
00:07:05
this was kind of mind-blowing. Sergey,
00:07:06
thank you so much for joining us. Please
00:07:08
join me in thanking Sergey. Thank you,
00:07:12
Freeberg. You don't have to kill him in
00:07:13
the first 3 hours, man. My lord, we
00:07:16
started with the red meat cuz we wanted
00:07:17
to make sure saxs showed up. So, well
00:07:19
played. Um, everything is proceeding as
00:07:23
I foresee.
00:07:26
My one contrarian view on the election
00:07:28
is that it's not going to be close. You
00:07:30
know, most presidential elections
00:07:31
aren't. I think, you know, one side is
00:07:33
is simply going to collapse. Just give
00:07:35
us a state of
00:07:36
politicians post this current batch. My
00:07:39
experience in the news business dealing
00:07:40
with politicians leads me to believe
00:07:42
that the people in this room and on this
00:07:44
stage over your two-day conference are
00:07:46
the people we need to be looking to for
00:07:47
our future leaders. Well said, ladies
00:07:49
and gentlemen. Megan Kelly.
00:07:52
I think it's crazy. They really built up
00:07:54
the suspense by keeping everything so
00:07:56
top secret. They set the bar really
00:07:57
high.
00:08:02
Crazy lineup. Doesn't get any better.
00:08:04
He's a big man. Elon Musk himself, you
00:08:06
know, it's it's amazing.
00:08:09
Ladies and gentlemen, our bestie and the
00:08:12
greatest entrepreneur of this
00:08:14
generation, Elon Musk.
00:08:24
The price of freedom of speech is not
00:08:26
cheap, is it? I think it's like 44
00:08:28
billion, something like that. Just
00:08:30
give her give or take a billion. The
00:08:33
rate of improvement of AI is faster than
00:08:35
any technology I've ever seen by far. I
00:08:37
think the actual issue is like, well,
00:08:38
how do we find meaning in a world where
00:08:40
AI can do everything we can do a bit
00:08:42
better? Once you have general purpose
00:08:44
humanoid robots, autonomous vehicles,
00:08:47
you can build anything. There's no
00:08:48
actual limit to the size of the economy.
00:08:52
Hi, ladies and gentlemen, our bestie
00:08:54
Elon Musk.
00:09:00
All right, guys. Thank you for an
00:09:01
amazing day. We're going to start the
00:09:03
Top Gun party at the Santa Monica Pier
00:09:05
at 7:00 p.m. See you all tomorrow. Thank
00:09:08
you.
00:09:12
[Music]
00:09:30
It was fantastic just to stay consistent
00:09:32
and just blew our minds. JD Vamps was a
00:09:35
surprise. We're very happy to see that.
00:09:37
It is everything I could have hoped for.
00:09:39
And I'm next to my favorite bestie here.
00:09:42
[Music]
00:09:56
Heat. Heat.
00:10:02
[Music]
00:10:13
Sax is skipping science corner this
00:10:14
morning and he'll show up for a panel
00:10:17
with John Mirchimer and Jeffrey Sachs.
00:10:19
We'll miss him, but I'm not sure he
00:10:21
would have said a word during Science
00:10:22
Corner. We've got a conversation with an
00:10:25
astronaut, a panel on Eevee Talls. Oh,
00:10:28
then we've got the Gecko robotics demo.
00:10:30
Where is Sachs? There's like a 15%
00:10:33
chance that Sachs thought it was a one
00:10:35
day event.
00:10:38
I've practiced the prepared part of my
00:10:40
my presentation a few times. I have not
00:10:43
practiced this demo. Oh yeah, it is
00:10:45
going to be chaos. There's going to be a
00:10:47
Uranus joke.
00:10:49
[Music]
00:10:50
Do you know where Sax is at the moment?
00:10:52
He's probably somewhere between the
00:10:54
bedroom, the front door, and the car.
00:10:59
We don't know exactly, but
00:11:01
It always works out.
00:11:05
First up, we are excited to welcome to
00:11:08
the stage astronaut. What do you hope?
00:11:13
It's a convenient quirk of the scale of
00:11:16
the objects in our solar system that if
00:11:19
you make the Earth a basketball, this is
00:11:22
the Earth, then the Moon is a tennis
00:11:25
ball. So in this scale, it's 24 ft. You
00:11:27
can do the math. If you could imagine
00:11:29
3/4 of a mile away in this scale, that's
00:11:33
Mars. 34 miles away is
00:11:42
Uranus. I heard some uh
00:11:45
laugh. I love it. You love that.
00:11:54
Sax, thanks for coming to the event
00:11:55
today. Appreciate it.
00:11:58
Hey, how are you guys? Good. How are
00:11:59
you? Very good, thanks. Thanks for
00:12:00
coming out.
00:12:03
I'm excited for this panel. We're going
00:12:04
to talk about foreign policy. We have, I
00:12:07
think, two of the most interesting,
00:12:09
imminent, renowned thinkers about
00:12:11
foreign policy. Professor John Mir
00:12:13
Shimmer from University of Chicago and
00:12:15
Professor Jeffrey Saxs from Colombia.
00:12:17
So, great to have you guys here today.
00:12:20
There are three great powers in the
00:12:22
system. The United States, China, and
00:12:24
Russia. China is a pure competitor to
00:12:27
the United States. It's the most serious
00:12:29
threat to the United States. CIA
00:12:30
directors never tell the truth. If they
00:12:32
do, they lose their job. We only have a
00:12:34
minute left and it's We got to add 5
00:12:36
minutes. This is the best panel ever
00:12:37
been on life. Can we just add 10
00:12:39
minutes? We got to add five or 10
00:12:41
minutes. The best panel. Is this the
00:12:43
best panel ever? Sorry, I'm calling an
00:12:45
audible. This was the most amazing panel
00:12:48
of the event so far. Give it up. If you
00:12:50
don't know Michael, you shouldn't be
00:12:52
here.
00:12:54
Since they started the All-In podcast, I
00:12:58
have applied 15 times to be a bestie.
00:13:03
How much do you feel like the business
00:13:05
is constrained and challenged now by
00:13:08
these social movements? Well, I mean,
00:13:10
let's start with the woke movement.
00:13:12
Okay. I wasn't going to say it. Okay,
00:13:14
here we go. I mean, I I don't have any
00:13:16
problem raising it if it doesn't bother
00:13:18
you guys. I think I'm okay with it. No.
00:13:25
Where do you think we're at right now? I
00:13:26
mean, is it all AI all the time? How are
00:13:29
you thinking about it? We're at the
00:13:30
precipice of the greatest moment in the
00:13:33
history of enterprise software and of
00:13:35
cloud computing. Got Mark Benos. And
00:13:37
then we have a secret guest. Travis
00:13:39
Kalanick is coming, founder of Uber and
00:13:42
now Cloud Kitchens. He hasn't spoken at
00:13:44
a conference or to the press in close to
00:13:47
a decade. So, it's kind of a big deal.
00:13:52
[Music]
00:13:54
I can't believe I get to sit down with
00:13:57
one of the most famous investors in
00:14:00
Uber. So, I'm honored. I'm honored to be
00:14:03
here. I loved every minute, but when you
00:14:07
fall in love again, you don't think
00:14:09
about the X very much, right?
00:14:13
Would you consider doing what Steve Job
00:14:15
did and coming back and merging Cloud
00:14:18
Kitchens with Uber? So, you're saying
00:14:20
there's a chance this would be the
00:14:22
return of the king. This would be my
00:14:24
dream. If you came back, it would be a
00:14:27
trillion dollar company with you back in
00:14:29
that seat. Would you take the seat again
00:14:30
if if it was offered?
00:14:33
[Music]
00:14:34
Well, I definitely know who my head of
00:14:36
comms would be.
00:14:38
On that note, Travis Kalan.
00:14:42
[Music]
00:14:43
The party for the Back to the Future
00:14:45
Casino Night will start at 7:00 p.m.
00:14:47

00:14:49
it for the announcements. Did you guys
00:14:50
enjoy it?
00:14:53
Over here.
00:14:56
[Music]
00:15:18
Um, non sequator Dave, I heard you can
00:15:20
battle rap. Yeah. My most impressive
00:15:23
talent is I can speak backwards. Oh, may
00:15:25
we hear? Okay. Give me something to say.
00:15:27
We are driving down sunset.
00:15:31
