This was an insightful discussion on various aspects of Tesla Autopilot that I hope catalyzes further nuanced conversation on the future of AI-assisted driving. Starts at 2:35.

It was a clever reply in a pseudo clever kind of way, and Elon was obviously enjoying the humor of it, but I don't think it was a particularly serious answer. I'm not sure it was a very serious question either. The implication in the question, and perhaps a better question might be "Do you think an AGI would have any better insights into any questions than people do now?"
@@tamie341 I think there's something appealing about this interview. It's kind of an unfiltered conversation between analytical minds and I like it. We've seen Elon smoking weed and laugh, this is good too
@@Tyraell01 it's good to see him converse with someone who can engage with him on his kinda level. Probably my favourite Elon interview I've ever seen was with a guy who runs a RUclips channel (everyday astronaut or something like that I think?), at the unveiling of the starship prototype a while back. He asked Elon about the choice of rocket engine design, the pros and cons and why it was chosen over a more conventional type. It's definitely not my area of expertise so it went way over my head, but Elon's (almost childlike) enthusiasm was awesome to see, and some of the thoughts he shared really inspired me and stuck in my brain.
I love how Elon always completely listens to the other person whom he is talking to and then thinks before answering.Nowadays very less people do it and I have started to practice that.
@@gsh64 more than politeness, though, because a lot of people might listen to most of what people say, but they will still try to finish people's sentences, and then respond without taking time to consider what they heard. Im as guilty as anyone else, but it's something im working on
Elon has talked abou base reality and simulation theory numerous times. I found the interview was simply recycling old topics in a somewhat fresh way...
Lex kept asking the same questions with different sentenses. Not a very good interview imo. Also Musk seemed a bit irritated for having to repeat himself.
I was little shocked to see that a child of Alex Fridman (kind of obvious Jewish name) could have a child named Alexey Fedotov then intealised during Soviet times it was pretty common to name your child this way to protect them from antisemitism. He doesn't look Jewish so it might have worked. Here's his own tweet - A healthy mix of Russian soul, Jewish wit, and American guts makes for a good soup recipe, or so I heard.
Thomas Edison approach. Create the desire for something that doesn't exist, promise it does exist, then hire people to create it in your name, sell it. Repeat step 1. He's said before Edison is one of his heroes and models.
@C0mmand 0ption his method works to get some of the most interesting guests on. He gets on my nerves often but it’s often my best (and only) option to hear hours of real intellectuals. Maybe he’s just plain enough
Probably the best ending to any RUclips video i've ever seen. Well done Lex, I couldn't have asked for a more insightful, and surprisingly motivational dialogue.
Wow, just WOW! Can you imagine the CEO of ANY other company having this sort of discussion? Meanwhile, the rest of the industry fires off all these platitudes about how they're going to take down Tesla and seem to expect Tesla to quit innovating and just wait for them to catch up. The fact that Tesla would have to go outside the established computer industry and develop their own computer to accomplish the requirements of Full Self Driving speaks volumes as to where the rest of the industry is OR should I say, is not.
The problem is that the majority of other companies are money/greed driven. Tesla is driven by the passion of someone with a childhood in scifi and the ruthless efficiency of a prodigy with an immeasurable IQ. You can't judge Tesla as as a regular company, it's not.
When Musk got involved with Tesla he realized the two key technologies for the company were batteries and autonomy. Main stream automakers couldn't see that. They are miles behind on both technologies. They are in a seriously no-win situation. ICE cars will go extinct. But who would want to buy their electric cars?
@@alilwittiness You mean like Hyundai cutting production of the Kona, or the Audi E-tron's "Real World Range" coming in at a paltry 204 miles? Or the mythical solid state battery that is always just months around the corner? Or Nissan's supreme battery management technology after about a decade in the EV field? Or Toyota's release of outdated EV patents whilst they concentrate on Hydrogen Fuel Cells? Oh, I forgot the holy grail of Graphene Technology. Sorry! Perhaps I am not "Fully Versed" in what is going on in the rest of the industry but I do believe Sandy Munroe has a pretty good idea of what is going on as it relates to Tesla, and especially in China. When FCA has to beg Tesla to take their millions of dollars to bail them out of their own shortsightedness, it just further re-iterates the dilemma Legacy Manufacturers are in. I will grant you that VW group spits out lots of interesting concepts but they need to actually deliver something. Whatever the future holds, there is LOTS of room for multiple players in the EV space. At least ELON and team have kick started the momentum.
Wow Sir your comment is extracting the exact reason why Tesla is going to rule ! The reason is their CEO, completely different and not profit ruled but innovation driven.
@@joshnic6639 I thought the "other guy" did a really great job. He clearly knew what he was talking about, asked great questions, and really brought the best out of Elon.
@@joshnic6639 you should check who is Lex. You will then appreciate better that his questions were spot on. Also, Elon Musk will never take 30 minutes of his precious time to talk to some random guys. Elon Musk likes to be challenged by smart people. Lex is one of them.
His answer about adversarial examples shows he does not have much of a clue himself what neural networks are. His solution to adversarial examples certainly is nothing of the sort. The problem with adversarial input isn't a lack of negative examples during training. That said the problem of adversarial input is overstated; finding adversarial examples requires exact knowledge of the parameters of the network in question, and the ability to feed it exactly controlled fake input. If you have that level of access to a self-driving car you might as well adversarially turn the wheel around and be done with it; why bother going to the trouble of misleading the cameras?
I've never seen Elon so relaxed and authentic during an interview I have a new respect for him and Lex as well, what an ideal interviewer this was an excellent experience on so many levels
It was probably that Elon knows that Lex is at a certain level of understanding and intelligence, so he doesn't need to try to explain the things that he would normally be required to. Plus Lex asks great questions.
Very very very informative. Nothing compared to trashed pumped out by CNBC, FOX, Etc. for economic benefits. Thank you both for such powerful interview which helps general public have a glance at the future of AI and full self-driving.
@@Stan_144 I think he was often like that during his interview with Joe Rogan as well; he seems quite reserved about what he'll say. Not sure about the "disclaimer" at the beginning as well. And, at the time I made that statement, I really was roughly at the 2 min mark, so yea, my expectations were higher.
I really enjoyed this interview, finally somebody who know enough about AI to talk with Elon about autopilot. And not some random journalist who ask always the same bonehead questions.
I've heard that Zuckerberg said that Musk doesn't understand AI. I'm not saying either person is right or wrong but does anyone know why he said that or what their difference of opinion is?
My favorite part in this interview...When Elon Musk was asked by Lex, “When you or someone else creates an AGI (artificial general intelligence) system, and you get to ask her one question, what would that question be?” After a 1 minute pause, where he’s deeply thinking, he finally responds, “I’d ask, ‘what’s outside the simulation’”?
A system can never know what’s outside the simulation because it’s only working with data it’s been fed. “In order to find that which is immeasurable, measurement must first come to an end”
So thats why the Techpriests of Mars worship Toasters! It all comes down to Elon making a divine toaster and bringing it to Mars. This kickstarted the Stellar Exodus and very much later the Cult Mechanicus...
I often think when people interview Elon : "Stop wasting his time, he's got work to do!" But this is one of the rare cases where his time was well used. Well done Lex
But how's this for a mind bender... what if we were to assume that everyone had the potential to achieve great things like Elon, but if you want to get there then there's "work to do"? What if the person whose time is being wasted the most... ...is _you?_
@@joseph1541 Assuming for a moment that hardware processing power wouldn't be a bottleneck, a true AGI would be able to self-improve exponentially and therefore its intelligence would be effectively infinite. Now, whether its knowledge is effectively infinite is a whole other question that's dependent on the data it has access to. But if it's supplied sufficient relevant data, it should be able to answer any question. Of course, this is all hypothetical science fiction currently, as we don't really know yet if true AGI is actually possible.
A simulation is an attempt to replicate the universe. The universe can't be a simulation you fools. By definition. Can it be more than you ever imagine? Well, you bet your ass it can. But that doesn't mean any of it is fake, when, obviously, it's the realest thing you can perceive at this time of your existence
The difference of comfort from 1st appearance to round 4 is nearly opposite ends of the spectrum. It's neat to see these two have conversations and how they evolve over time each appearance.
@@chibula I think this question is maybe more important than Isaac one, I mean If there is no entropy outside the simulation, clearly is not the last question. Elon question is not the last one neither, because, maybe there is another universe in which our simulation is running, but there is more simulations? which one was the first one? is a cycle? it has a end or a beginning?. Still, Elon's question approaches this concept more
@@brando3342 I think it would be very difficult to come up with an honest true answer to this question in the few seconds provided. Of course Elon would have to use some humor and take reference from the previous topic to get through that question so quickly. However, you are undoubtedly spewing the "good news" and want us to all accept the undeniable fact that God walks among us, testing our ever-lasting souls for the attributes he deems acceptable in his white billowy country club he runs in the after-life. No Jews, Muslims, Hindu, or atheist need apply, God tosses their applications straight away.
@@brando3342 I'm not trying to make fun of anyone. To answer directly to "Not their fault and you don't know who's going to heaven, neither do I." I would say, you don't even know if there is a heaven to go to.. You were born into Christianity. I was also born into Christianity, but have discovered reasonable doubt. "It isn't a "simulation". This is Satan's world, the delusion God sent. Ignore it, go find your family and live happily." is a quote from you on a seperate thread in this video's comments. You seem pretty confident in your knowledge of god, and his intentions. I admit I have jumped to conclusions based on your other thread, and it was insensitive and lazy to assume to know the meaning of "Elon is not being honest." What did you mean when you said Elon was not being honest in his answer?
I love the way Elon thinks. Things are just so obvious and automatic to him but they're revolutionary to the rest of us. His ability to see the future crystal clearly shows he's a true visionary.
31:30 "there may be ways to test if it's a simulation, but you can imagine that once an entity in the simulation found a way to detect the simulation, it can do something that corrects for that error" 31:52 "so when someone creates an AGI system and you get to ask her one question, what would that question be?" 32:16 "what's outside the simulation?" 32:20 Simulation: "time to end this podcast"

@@after_midnight9592I Wasn't going to like the comment because it didn't had to be said, it's so obvious. But then i read women and i had to like it :D
@@mike_o7874 for real if I had to choose someone to end it all....I would choose Elon over Mark Suckerberg. Something tells me he would actually take care of us while we die or give us a honorable death, Mark on the other hand would probably find the cheapest of all and make it as sufferable as possible.
@@mike_o7874 You being ok if Elon turned out to be evil all along, simply because you admire him, is pretty much how the most evil dictators in history were allowed to thrive. One of the best quotes I've heard came from the anime villain, Aizen Sousuke: "Admiration is the emotion furthest from comprehenshion."
serious bro whats up with this weak intro.. lets get into it already he still talkin about stuff we already been knowing since the JRE podcast. alrighty then its about to start... oh wait its not hes still talking to himself where is ellon ???
@merimies If by "dumb" you mean people who don't take themselves too seriously and know when to let go, then I agree. Pretentious cunts need not apply.
Say what you may, Elon Musk is a genius! And Lex asked very probing and very informed questions. This interview makes me want to buy Tesla stock right now!!
Feralz right but are those two things that related? The energy crisis from dwindling fossil fuels is millions of times more a threat than traffic fatalities.
@@robertblake1228 i used to think like that but elon is 100% right in the fact that in the future people will say we were crazy for driving cars , i actually think about that sometimes when im driving fast on the highway or anywhere else, just a tiny shift of my hands of 10 degree can make me crash and possibly kill me or others around me.
Fascinating how Elon's brilliance is so focused while concurrently immensely flexible. When he's thinking, you can practically see his mind and imagination working together to weight out and explore different outcomes. Inspiring watching how passionate and immersed he is in the journey itself, not just arriving the destinations. Thank you, Lex!
Its like elon said before in the interview: the better the AI is, the more you can engage the autopilot. with the automatic lane change there will be a huge increase in time spent with autopilot engaged. therefore you get a lot of more data from these critical moments, thereby vastly improving the learning curve of the AI. this in turn alows you to engage autopilot even in more tricky situations and creating even more useful data. the better the AI, the more you can use it and the more you use it, the better the data -> better AI.
Just the idea that the car could circle/drive around/park a mile away, etc etc while you shop, go to the Dr, etc, but arrives when you call it, is game-changing. Think of all the time we've wasted just looking for a space...all that time is no longer lost....Eventually, self-driving cars will be the new ubers and taxis...with no drivers at all....unless legislation precludes it, which is possible....Eventually, we will get completely away from personal ownership of cars..Right now, the major hurdle for auto driving cars is all the cars out there being driven by humans....If all cars were self-driving/autonomous, the accident rate would plummet...
@@tamie341 my god! Just dont go on comparing everyone to elon and say the're nothing! Elon NATURALLY had a reading habit and had a computer since his childhood. Hkw many people have that NATURALLY? The thing is you're fucking jealous of Lex Fridman, so degrading him by comparing to elon. Get some better job to do.
Elons expression as he is thinking of an answer to lex's last question reminds me of doctor strange going through all the different realities and considering all the outcomes.
You are putting too much stock into it , human behavior is far more complex and fluid in response to environmental stimuli to be boxed into a few broad categories and the tests you are referring to have been refuted many times , Simply put , if the same subject retakes a test a few weeks later , he can be placed into a completely different category which casts doubts on the reliability of such tests.
You can detect a different level of intelligence here. This MIT kid has a great brain for the workhorse technical stuff he did with his team. Elon, however, has that along with unrivaled common sense and practicality. A powerful combination to say the least.
I actually think the Lex's work on driver/passenger monitoring could be very assuring when teslas are in a robo taxi mode. Instead of it detecting mobile phone use, guitar playing and water drinking it could be detecting and reporting vomiting, littering and vandalism to the owner and Tesla.
Theres way too many emotions in the 21st century Western world as it is, hence the creation of terms such as "safe space" and "triggering". Therefore, it is a welcome relief to observe over 30 minutes of erudite stolidity.
I do, but it doesn't change anything. You still have to go out there and live a meaningful life and create joy. Even if I'm in a simulation i'm going to make my playthrough enjoyable.
I find it weird that people don't at least entertain the notion. Simulation will improve so it's only a matter of time before the simulation will be good enough (for any given value of "enough"). Given that, and given that simulation will eventually be developed within the simulation, recursing ever deeper, what is the chance that we are at iteration 0 - outside of any simulation?
As an enginerd myself, I found this video extremely impactful. There is such great deal of insight shared between these two. I will have to watch it a few times to completely understand everything introduced.
I just imagine God sitting in his heavenly throne, one foot resting on the opposite leg's knee. Chin in his palm, looking bored. Then Elon says that and God doesn't move for a second, then just gives a 🤨 "hmm" and lightly taps the glass dome behind which he sits, more in idle thought than for any structural testing purpose. On the other side of the dome, the tapping causes an enormous tsunami to strike the coast of Japan, killing 14.
What if the notion of outside is only pertinent to the simulation? Also, why do people insist on placing human attributes upon the divine? Isn't that rather arrogant?
That 15 second pause for thought before answering that last question was epic. I listened on podcast first and had to doublecheck that my phone didnt actually reboot or something. Might be the GOAT podcast ending.

Very very very informative. Nothing compared to trashed pumped out by CNBC, FOX, Etc. for economic benefits.
Thank you both for such powerful interview which helps general public have a glance at the future of AI and full self-driving.
Yea and also CNN dont forget them
great comment! ❤❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Lex: “You only have a certain amount of money”
Elon: “And I took that personally”
This sounds like a job interview
when Elon applied for Tesla
They were dressed for the occasion
LOL
Watched like 2 minutes and already wish this was longer.
@@Stan_144 I think he was often like that during his interview with Joe Rogan as well; he seems quite reserved about what he'll say. Not sure about the "disclaimer" at the beginning as well. And, at the time I made that statement, I really was roughly at the 2 min mark, so yea, my expectations were higher.
@@Stan_144 His eyes are not "wandering" he is THINKING.
@@Stan_144 this is usually what people do when they work through a question and are trying to avoid providing a canned response
That's what she said.
@@--SPQR-- You took it out of my mou... wait....
I really enjoyed this interview, finally somebody who know enough about AI to talk with Elon about autopilot. And not some random journalist who ask always the same bonehead questions.
I've heard that Zuckerberg said that Musk doesn't understand AI. I'm not saying either person is right or wrong but does anyone know why he said that or what their difference of opinion is?
My favorite part in this interview...When Elon Musk was asked by Lex, “When you or someone else creates an AGI (artificial general intelligence) system, and you get to ask her one question, what would that question be?”
After a 1 minute pause, where he’s deeply thinking, he finally responds, “I’d ask, ‘what’s outside the simulation’”?
A system can never know what’s outside the simulation because it’s only working with data it’s been fed. “In order to find that which is immeasurable, measurement must first come to an end”
@@shaduwy Quantum Mechanics be like: "Measurement what? Lulz 🤣"
@@shaduwy perfectly said. "The last question" by asimov plays around with that idea. Highly recommend, if you havent read it
He did not pause for one minute he only paused for 17 seconds. Because 17 is just a test.
@@TheVintageRomance Westworld Season 1 plays with this too.
29:30 "You're confident that with Tesla you can create the world's best toaster" LMAO!! Goteemm
Problem solved
So thats why the Techpriests of Mars worship Toasters! It all comes down to Elon making a divine toaster and bringing it to Mars. This kickstarted the Stellar Exodus and very much later the Cult Mechanicus...
Pretty apt analogy. Where's the burn?
Wonderful talk. Could easily have sat through another hour and a few more cups of coffee.
it was way too short. didn't really get into AGI.
Anyone else just love watching lex ask a great question and then Elon almost reading notes in his mind to answer it?
That pause at the last question made the answer send chills down my spine. Damn good stuff 👍
"what's outside the simulation" damn that gave me goosebumps for some reason being his answer.
I often think when people interview Elon : "Stop wasting his time, he's got work to do!" But this is one of the rare cases where his time was well used.
Well done Lex
He regretted it so much he did another one
Lot of spicy memes to get to on Twitter.
I've thought the same thing before!
But how's this for a mind bender... what if we were to assume that everyone had the potential to achieve great things like Elon, but if you want to get there then there's "work to do"?
What if the person whose time is being wasted the most...
...is _you?_
Hear hear, great interview all around!
"What's outside the simulation ?" WOW super question!
I love it when someone puts Elon on the spot with a question like that. You can see the cogs turning ... and then he rarely disappoints.
That’s equivalent to asking what’s in the other dimensions. It’s a fair question which I think wouldn’t be able to be answered by AI for quite a while
@@joseph1541 Assuming for a moment that hardware processing power wouldn't be a bottleneck, a true AGI would be able to self-improve exponentially and therefore its intelligence would be effectively infinite. Now, whether its knowledge is effectively infinite is a whole other question that's dependent on the data it has access to. But if it's supplied sufficient relevant data, it should be able to answer any question. Of course, this is all hypothetical science fiction currently, as we don't really know yet if true AGI is actually possible.
A simulation is an attempt to replicate the universe. The universe can't be a simulation you fools. By definition.
Can it be more than you ever imagine? Well, you bet your ass it can. But that doesn't mean any of it is fake, when, obviously, it's the realest thing you can perceive at this time of your existence
Yes, it was. I got chills. This was a great interview.
That last line was so epic. Such a good soundbite
The difference of comfort from 1st appearance to round 4 is nearly opposite ends of the spectrum. It's neat to see these two have conversations and how they evolve over time each appearance.
"What's outside the simulation? "
Pretty good question indeed.
It's something Isaac Asimov would have written
@@Skip2MeLou1 even the joe rogan episode
Jaimie Knox there is a book called the last question by Asimov
Stacked simulations.
@@chibula I think this question is maybe more important than Isaac one, I mean If there is no entropy outside the simulation, clearly is not the last question.
Elon question is not the last one neither, because, maybe there is another universe in which our simulation is running, but there is more simulations? which one was the first one? is a cycle? it has a end or a beginning?. Still, Elon's question approaches this concept more
Finally this is the interview that I've been waiting for. Two of the people I most admire in self-driving technology.
You can listen to this several times and still learn something new each time! Brilliant content - FOR FREE, TOO!
Your last question really had Elon thinking hard.
Very well done on this interview. 👍
When u got a funeral to go to but have to interview Elon Musk on the way
underrated comment :D
Lol
Lol exactly
or shoot some aliens and erase memories.
Hes wearing funeral clothes because hes gonna BURY Elon in the driverless car field!
why can't they just talk about the facts: why are they so emotional about everything?
cuz this shits epic
They are romantics
Because they care
i'm so autistic that i thought this was a serious comment lol
Real LOL 👍
the matter-of-fact, dry, straight-to-the-point tone is hilarious and awesome:)
Always satisfying to listen to an intelligent conversation! well done!
Wow! What a beautiful podcast! I loved the ending...!
@@brando3342 I think it would be very difficult to come up with an honest true answer to this question in the few seconds provided. Of course Elon would have to use some humor and take reference from the previous topic to get through that question so quickly.
However, you are undoubtedly spewing the "good news" and want us to all accept the undeniable fact that God walks among us, testing our ever-lasting souls for the attributes he deems acceptable in his white billowy country club he runs in the after-life. No Jews, Muslims, Hindu, or atheist need apply, God tosses their applications straight away.
@@brando3342 I'm not trying to make fun of anyone. To answer directly to "Not their fault and you don't know who's going to heaven, neither do I." I would say, you don't even know if there is a heaven to go to.. You were born into Christianity. I was also born into Christianity, but have discovered reasonable doubt.
"It isn't a "simulation". This is Satan's world, the delusion God sent. Ignore it, go find your family and live happily." is a quote from you on a seperate thread in this video's comments. You seem pretty confident in your knowledge of god, and his intentions. I admit I have jumped to conclusions based on your other thread, and it was insensitive and lazy to assume to know the meaning of "Elon is not being honest."
What did you mean when you said Elon was not being honest in his answer?
I love the way Elon thinks. Things are just so obvious and automatic to him but they're revolutionary to the rest of us. His ability to see the future crystal clearly shows he's a true visionary.
this whole interview sounds like a cyborg turing testing another cyborg
The pitch that you're buying a appreciating asset versus almost all other vehicles that depreciate is incredible.
Brilliant indeed
@Do One What do you mean by "they are done"? Nothing can be replaced to have them running again?
Anyway, I was complimenting the sales pitch.
31:30 "there may be ways to test if it's a simulation, but you can imagine that once an entity in the simulation found a way to detect the simulation, it can do something that corrects for that error"
31:52 "so when someone creates an AGI system and you get to ask her one question, what would that question be?"
32:16 "what's outside the simulation?"
32:20 Simulation: "time to end this podcast"
makes sense
But... Elon's answer was simulated. Assuming a simulation of course.
most underrated comment
Haha. Spot on
The time Elon took to answer that question is equaivalent to running this over the top tier hardware AI system and getting the results
"What's outside of the simulation?"
Windows error sound.
it's called chord.wav, ruclips.net/video/_YcgHvp6xIo/видео.html
The intro reminds me of the prompts I give to gpt-3 for it to understand what it has to do lol.
a TRUE genius! Mr Musk... only come once a millennium, you are sooo lucky to have sat across and interviewed him!
25:54 Elon "It is pretty crazy letting people drive a two-ton death machine manually"
He's right. The amount of drunks, druggies, retards, idiots, imbeciles and women operating this machinery, is unbelievable. Drivers licence should have much more strict conditions.

its a kind of interview which will be played in the future if things worked out smoothly or not
Love that ending dammit!!
Amazing podcast, even better ending! Loved every second
I dont know why.. but I really am okay with Elon taking my data and using it. I feel the complete opposit about Mark Zoidberg
Zachary Schiess trust
Elon actually uses it for the good of humanity while the Zucc just uses it for cheap profit.
@@CockatooDude even if he a hidden vilian that wanna build an ai that will destroy us all iam okay with it, the guy is legendary
@@mike_o7874 for real if I had to choose someone to end it all....I would choose Elon over Mark Suckerberg. Something tells me he would actually take care of us while we die or give us a honorable death, Mark on the other hand would probably find the cheapest of all and make it as sufferable as possible.
@@mike_o7874 You being ok if Elon turned out to be evil all along, simply because you admire him, is pretty much how the most evil dictators in history were allowed to thrive. One of the best quotes I've heard came from the anime villain, Aizen Sousuke: "Admiration is the emotion furthest from comprehenshion."
Joe Rogan: Let's just jump right into it
Lex Friedman: 30 minutes of disclaimer 😂
That's how you know he's an academic
🤨 2.5 minutes.
serious bro whats up with this weak intro.. lets get into it already he still talkin about stuff we already been knowing since the JRE podcast. alrighty then its about to start... oh wait its not hes still talking to himself where is ellon ???
@merimies If by "dumb" you mean people who don't take themselves too seriously and know when to let go, then I agree. Pretentious cunts need not apply.
A P : "A. P.!!!!!........ I thought i told you to get off YT and back to bed mister. I'll tell your mother!
@merimies Joe Rogan is a comedian, I don't know what you expect of him.
PLEASE MAKE THESE LONGER!!
Disclosure is a must. Great work Lex
Say what you may, Elon Musk is a genius! And Lex asked very probing and very informed questions. This interview makes me want to buy Tesla stock right now!!
Feralz right but are those two things that related? The energy crisis from dwindling fossil fuels is millions of times more a threat than traffic fatalities.
@@robertblake1228 i used to think like that but elon is 100% right in the fact that in the future people will say we were crazy for driving cars , i actually think about that sometimes when im driving fast on the highway or anywhere else, just a tiny shift of my hands of 10 degree can make me crash and possibly kill me or others around me.
Fascinating how Elon's brilliance is so focused while concurrently immensely flexible. When he's thinking, you can practically see his mind and imagination working together to weight out and explore different outcomes. Inspiring watching how passionate and immersed he is in the journey itself, not just arriving the destinations. Thank you, Lex!
Always fun when the interviewer doesn't rush Elon and lets him think before he talks.
Elon is in his element here... right at home
Well said
Its like elon said before in the interview: the better the AI is, the more you can engage the autopilot. with the automatic lane change there will be a huge increase in time spent with autopilot engaged. therefore you get a lot of more data from these critical moments, thereby vastly improving the learning curve of the AI. this in turn alows you to engage autopilot even in more tricky situations and creating even more useful data. the better the AI, the more you can use it and the more you use it, the better the data -> better AI.
you're talking about musk as if it's human...don't let it fool you....lol
Just the idea that the car could circle/drive around/park a mile away, etc etc while you shop, go to the Dr, etc, but arrives when you call it, is game-changing. Think of all the time we've wasted just looking for a space...all that time is no longer lost....Eventually, self-driving cars will be the new ubers and taxis...with no drivers at all....unless legislation precludes it, which is possible....Eventually, we will get completely away from personal ownership of cars..Right now, the major hurdle for auto driving cars is all the cars out there being driven by humans....If all cars were self-driving/autonomous, the accident rate would plummet...
Amazing to watch 2 geniuses communicating (and the interviewee's ocular movement).
absolutely amazing, came here because of Joe Rogan, stayed because of Lex Fridman - SUBSCRIBED.
omg! me 2! lol
Me 3. This dudes the fuggin trooth
Lex is just a peanut compared to Elon
@@tamie341 But a coconut compared to Joe Rogan 😏
@@tamie341 my god! Just dont go on comparing everyone to elon and say the're nothing! Elon NATURALLY had a reading habit and had a computer since his childhood. Hkw many people have that NATURALLY? The thing is you're fucking jealous of Lex Fridman, so degrading him by comparing to elon.

Damn that felt like a bombshell ending. What an insightful interview
It's like hearing two Vulcan's speak in real life.
Elons expression as he is thinking of an answer to lex's last question reminds me of doctor strange going through all the different realities and considering all the outcomes.
☝️

Top siGma
Great interview! Love the “Two ton death machine”
If you've ever thought what two INTJs having a conversation would be like, here it is.
You are putting too much stock into it , human behavior is far more complex and fluid in response to environmental stimuli to be boxed into a few broad categories and the tests you are referring to have been refuted many times , Simply put , if the same subject retakes a test a few weeks later , he can be placed into a completely different category which casts doubts on the reliability of such tests.
Lex is an Infj
Elon "your research in last 3 years is moot" Musk
Exactly that's why he put that caveat at the start. Musk just said it not even an issue. Surprised musk didnt just say why invade a person's space
You can detect a different level of intelligence here. This MIT kid has a great brain for the workhorse technical stuff he did with his team. Elon, however, has that along with unrivaled common sense and practicality. A powerful combination to say the least.
I actually think the Lex's work on driver/passenger monitoring could be very assuring when teslas are in a robo taxi mode. Instead of it detecting mobile phone use, guitar playing and water drinking it could be detecting and reporting vomiting, littering and vandalism to the owner and Tesla.
@@missionpupa How did you come to the conclusion that it was the interviewer's intent to antagonize?
@DAG as if you have any clue what you are talking / critiquing about
Emotions have left the chat.
Emotions are counterproductive to evolution haha
@@rusitoexplorador they wouldn't have evolved in the first place of that were true
Then we would have thrown babies. What am I saying we are already killing babies. Yes we devolved.
Theres way too many emotions in the 21st century Western world as it is, hence the creation of terms such as "safe space" and "triggering". Therefore, it is a welcome relief to observe over 30 minutes of erudite stolidity.
25:00
Lex and Elon look like brothers.
That was too short! More please! That was very insightful
Aliens observing Earth - - “ that may be a civilization worth saving, send down an Elon “.
This is my favorite thought ever.
Humans observing Aliens, Humans operation Elon to invade Mars.
Damn! You figured it the fuck out!
"What's outside the simulation?" gave me goosebumps. Who else believes we all are under a simulation?
I do, but it doesn't change anything. You still have to go out there and live a meaningful life and create joy. Even if I'm in a simulation i'm going to make my playthrough enjoyable.
I find it weird that people don't at least entertain the notion. Simulation will improve so it's only a matter of time before the simulation will be good enough (for any given value of "enough"). Given that, and given that simulation will eventually be developed within the simulation, recursing ever deeper, what is the chance that we are at iteration 0 - outside of any simulation?
@David Carr Although that million years of evolution may only have taken a couple of days of 'real'-time in the outer reality :)
@@TessaTickle thank you

@@pablocarmona7998 Hahaha good luck sir!
Elon finally found someone with the same level of emotion as him.
He shows tons of emotion often. This was pure tech talk robotic bliss.
looool
This is the smoothest ending I've ever watched in an podcast till date
Looking forward to the 4th interview! ☺Thanks, Lex & Elon!
Elon :
"What's outside the simulation ?"
God : "What an epic 4th wall break."
Cool. Now time to do another reset. I wonder what the next batch asks! 😂
"God starts sweating"
1. Maya... [Reset]
2. Atlantis... [Reset]
3. Now Elon asked wrong question....
3.... 2 .... 1.... ... [Reset]
I just imagine God sitting in his heavenly throne, one foot resting on the opposite leg's knee. Chin in his palm, looking bored. Then Elon says that and God doesn't move for a second, then just gives a 🤨 "hmm" and lightly taps the glass dome behind which he sits, more in idle thought than for any structural testing purpose.
On the other side of the dome, the tapping causes an enormous tsunami to strike the coast of Japan, killing 14.
What if the notion of outside is only pertinent to the simulation?
Also, why do people insist on placing human attributes upon the divine? Isn't that rather arrogant?
That 15 second pause for thought before answering that last question was epic. I listened on podcast first and had to doublecheck that my phone didnt actually reboot or something. Might be the GOAT podcast ending.
"what's outside the simulation". He is the one, he is Neo.
Really enjoyed this. I cant believe I'm just finding this video now
“All input is error” THIS is how you achieve perfect 👏👏👏
I Could listen to Elon talk all day. He alone is the reason I bought Tesla stock. If I needed a car I’d buy a tesla
Can you still buy Tesla stocks?
First time watching a Robot interviewing an Alien !
Aj Sky 😂😂😂
🤣
Those people walking by outside have no idea what kind of greatness they are near.
Best interview I've ever seen.Thank you so much Lex , for making this happen
