00:00:00
president Trump is embracing artificial
00:00:01
intelligence in a big way announcing
00:00:03
Stargate a joint venture between open AI
00:00:05
soft bank and Oracle that aims to build
00:00:07
up AI infrastructure in the US he had
00:00:10
nothing to do with it but he did get to
00:00:11
announce it there's no government money
00:00:13
here just I got so many people like why
00:00:14
is the government giving these people
00:00:16
money they're not this is a this is an
00:00:17
initiative it's just a press release
00:00:19
from the White House is what it is
00:00:20
that's why he was there had Sam Alman
00:00:22
was there Larry Ellison was there Mas
00:00:24
oian was there uh who all of who have up
00:00:28
and down startup experience if some if
00:00:31
you want to say that they're sort of
00:00:32
BigTime investors so this has been in
00:00:33
the works just so you know it's been in
00:00:35
the works for a long time it's not this
00:00:37
is not a new thing and I I believe they
00:00:39
offered it to the Biden people to do it
00:00:41
sooner um and they didn't bite I suppose
00:00:44
Trump knows how to bite Trump's done
00:00:46
almost nothing here to do that except
00:00:48
for pose with them in the white house
00:00:50
which is not a bad thing um it's already
00:00:53
broke ground I know a lot about this
00:00:55
I've talked to all the different players
00:00:56
in it um and just for for history say
00:01:00
Masa had promised this in the last
00:01:02
Administration and didn't really make a
00:01:03
lot of the Investments that he said he
00:01:05
was going to make the last Trump
00:01:06
Administration that said he's also a
00:01:09
very good entrepreneur on many things
00:01:10
and a very bad one on others um there
00:01:13
also was fox conon in the last uh era
00:01:16
never got built which Trump had promised
00:01:17
and touted and everything else that said
00:01:20
this is a much more substantive group of
00:01:22
people um and they already building the
00:01:24
thing after the announcement though Elon
00:01:27
Musk who was not in the room and purpose
00:01:30
ly not in the room in case everybody's
00:01:31
interested I've talked to a lot of
00:01:33
people they made sure he wasn't there he
00:01:35
was stirring the pot posting on X that
00:01:37
these companies don't have the capital
00:01:38
to invest Sam mman responded wrong he
00:01:40
went on to say I realize what is great
00:01:42
for the country isn't always what's
00:01:43
optimal for your companies but in your
00:01:45
new role I hope you mostly put America
00:01:47
First the word mostly is doing a lot of
00:01:49
work there it's such a troll it was such
00:01:51
a perfect troll um I think part of let
00:01:55
me say because I've done a little
00:01:56
reporting into it is um uh they don't
00:02:00
have the money yet but they have a lot
00:02:01
of money also and they'll get the money
00:02:03
and I've talked to all the parties
00:02:05
Microsoft's a partner there's other
00:02:06
partners and essentially it's to build a
00:02:08
data center um and build them all over
00:02:10
the country they still also need energy
00:02:12
centers they need all kinds of chips
00:02:15
building chips here there's going to be
00:02:16
a lot of this kind of stuff a lot of
00:02:18
money not much result yet um so start on
00:02:22
that because I want to also get into
00:02:24
this Tech telen Nolla as I'm calling it
00:02:26
between musk and Altman because they
00:02:28
continued through the night to troll
00:02:30
back and forth and I'll we'll talk about
00:02:32
that in a minute but talk about the
00:02:33
announcement itself uh it's genius
00:02:35
branding on the part of the
00:02:36
administration the president because he
00:02:38
basically took other people's assets and
00:02:39
money and pretended it was his idea I
00:02:41
mean most of this was underway during
00:02:43
the Biden Administration but what he's
00:02:44
done is he's branded it and taken credit
00:02:46
for it and most Americans will go aund
00:02:49
you know a half a trillion dollars US
00:02:52
Government weighing in like the Space
00:02:54
Program we're going to be number one in
00:02:55
AI That's leadership day five when all
00:02:58
he really did was just take existing
00:03:01
existing efforts and capital and brand
00:03:02
it so this was brilliant uh from the
00:03:05
president quite frankly the one I don't
00:03:07
get I can't figure out the masi yoshian
00:03:09
is still hanging around the hoop uh I
00:03:11
don't think he's a great entrepreneur
00:03:12
I'm convinced and this is my theory that
00:03:14
masi yoshian is an officer in the
00:03:17
Central Intelligence Agency that's been
00:03:19
tasked with transferring Oil Capital
00:03:20
back from the Gulf to American
00:03:22
entrepreneurs there's been few people
00:03:24
that have lost more of other people's
00:03:25
money more of other people's money than
00:03:27
Moshi son and the other big winner quite
00:03:30
is Oracle uh Oracle is all of a sudden I
00:03:33
went to this wonderful our friends
00:03:35
Patrick and Tatum had this wonderful
00:03:37
Christmas dinner and there's a kids
00:03:39
table and an adults table and I said to
00:03:41
my 14-year-old why don't you join the
00:03:43
adults table and we played these games
00:03:45
and he was just so excited to be there I
00:03:48
feel like Oracle with this announcement
00:03:51
is officially at the grown-up stable
00:03:52
around AI agreed they've been behind in
00:03:55
this area a lot quite a bit and they
00:03:57
they and Sam needs capacity that's what
00:03:59
he need needs cuz he's not getting
00:04:00
enough from Microsoft he's not he needs
00:04:02
Computing capacity that's really the
00:04:05
situation because I'll tell you musk has
00:04:08
done a great job scaling in terms of
00:04:10
doing shoving all those chips in the
00:04:12
place you know polluting an area of
00:04:15
where he was opening one of the things
00:04:16
he's done a great job of scaly and Alman
00:04:19
needs to keep up here and needs to look
00:04:21
like he's on his front foot um the two
00:04:23
of them what a relationship they were
00:04:25
very close and now are sort of like Arch
00:04:28
enemies um they've continued this back
00:04:30
and forth trolling through the night
00:04:31
elon's been res sharing some of Sam's
00:04:33
old anti-trump tweets they existed Sam
00:04:35
posted he's not going to agree with
00:04:36
Trump on everything but he thinks he'll
00:04:38
be incredible for the country in many
00:04:39
ways very much like Bill Gates saying I
00:04:42
was impressed with him more impressed
00:04:43
with him than I thought obviously every
00:04:45
one of these people is going to do you
00:04:46
know a kiss ass to Trump because it
00:04:48
works so well um and but elon's trying
00:04:51
to paint him as anti-trump Elon should
00:04:54
be careful Elon I have some texts from
00:04:56
Elon that are not so positive towards
00:04:58
Donald Trump um you know a lot of them
00:05:01
were not pro Trump a lot of them and
00:05:03
then they were and and in this case I
00:05:04
think Sam is doing it for I would imag I
00:05:07
think a lot of people are pissed at him
00:05:08
for doing it and I can see why uh but
00:05:10
he's uh he's he's definitely um all
00:05:14
these people are going to say Trump's
00:05:16
going to be incredible it's the only way
00:05:17
to get through to this guy um but it's
00:05:19
interesting that Elon was sort of shoved
00:05:22
out a little bit here um which I think
00:05:24
is vintage Trump again I think a winner
00:05:27
win a win for Trump to have all these
00:05:29
people competing that's my feeling yeah
00:05:31
but I initially thought that that oh
00:05:33
this was Trump saying I'm on top but
00:05:35
basically Trump just played the hand he
00:05:37
was dealt this this this group I think
00:05:39
was already assembled and already on
00:05:41
their way and he just wanted credit for
00:05:43
it I do think though that this is
00:05:44
probably the beginning of the end of
00:05:47
their Bromance because I don't think
00:05:50
Trump likes sharing the mic with anyone
00:05:52
like musk fired VC because he didn't
00:05:54
want to share the mic with VC musk is
00:05:57
used to doing whatever the he wants
00:05:59
and and Trump when he appoints you to
00:06:02
something and now you're off hogging all
00:06:04
of the media Echo chamber and you're
00:06:07
criticizing his new pet project I got to
00:06:11
think that Trump and his folks are like
00:06:13
all right everybody said we couldn't
00:06:15
control this guy but we were under the
00:06:16
impression he wouldn't he wouldn't
00:06:17
shitpost us you know five days into the
00:06:20
administration I got to think that I got
00:06:22
to think that Trump and his Circle are
00:06:24
like okay uh this is not but what do
00:06:27
they do they rely on his money they want
00:06:29
to use him as a cudel against the
00:06:31
primaries they gave him a westwing
00:06:33
office not not an East Building office
00:06:36
you're saying he's more powerful there's
00:06:37
nothing they can do except they kept him
00:06:38
out of this meeting they I mean people
00:06:40
there you know one of the one of the
00:06:42
many people involved said it was the
00:06:44
greatest engineering feat of all time to
00:06:46
keep him out right so I think and and I
00:06:48
think Sam felt embolden to attack him
00:06:52
right or to make fun of him and what's
00:06:53
really interesting about musk that you
00:06:55
really have to understand is he loves to
00:06:57
troll people I he loves to troll people
00:07:00
it gives him his greatest pleasure he
00:07:02
loves if I do this what will they do
00:07:04
I've heard heard out of his mouth so
00:07:05
many times like it's usually a stupid
00:07:07
prank right um and that he got pushed
00:07:11
back on by by Sam who he's also in a
00:07:14
lawsuit with with open AI by the way
00:07:16
calls him a liar all the time Etc um
00:07:20
that he got pushed on when he gets
00:07:21
pushed back on very typical bully he
00:07:23
gets all mad he gets all beside himself
00:07:27
he can't he Trolls but he can't take a
00:07:28
troll in anyway with any sense of humor
00:07:31
whatsoever and so I think that's
00:07:32
something Trump will not like and Sam is
00:07:34
a more appealing character like if he's
00:07:36
assembling billionaires to have around
00:07:38
him you know you you want the gates and
00:07:41
the Sams and the Tim Cooks musk is a lot
00:07:44
if you have him in proximity and he
00:07:46
takes a lot of attention
