Thank you. All these conversations about science and technology feel like I'm watching a historic moment unfold. Very grateful for this.
I finally met Spot a few weeks ago at my University and it was hilarious to see everyone anthropomorphize it and talk to it like a dog 😊
I consider myself fortunate, having been born in 76, seen the transitions from many analog technologies to digital technologies, including the creation and proliferation of the Internet. Seeing the advancements in robotics and AI, I feel like I'm witnessing something similar. Thank you for all the recent work on these subjects, Lex.
Love the new hairstyle lex
Lex is so good he doesn't even have time to fix his hair 😂
Watching the creators of AI and robotic systems push back on Lex's belief in them is now a theme of this podcast.
