- Опубликовано: 9 янв 2025
- This week I chat with RUclipsr Marques Brownlee, professionally known as MKBHD and famous for his incredibly popular videos reviewing technology devices. We discusses how to survive and thrive in this era of nichification, fake outrage on the internet and its impact on creators, and whether AI is experiencing a PR nightmare or if in fact it will actually be able to kill us in our sleep.

RE: Tech power saturation... If Noah hasn't seen the documentaries of Adam Curtis, he should check them out. All Watched Over by Machines of Loving Grace and the more recent Can't Get You Out of My Head are both extremely salient.
Hey Trevor, have you ever used Mxit
😂@@Mlondii-j6g
Thank you for giving me the chance to listen and learn from you guys.
My two worlds collided today. Hearing Trevor and Marques is like therapy for me but hearing them talking on one show is everything. I never wanted this to end. Feeling so helpless.
Absolutely! Never thought these two would be on together. Now I need Trevor on Waveform! I’m so glad their audiences will intertwine even just a bit now!
Tbh it would mean more if he at least would have attended in person instead of Zoom call.
@@FSUMercerianWe have our hopes up haha. I am sure they have lots of stuff they can talk about. I love to hear their perspectives on tech.
Bro I am u... U are me
YES YES YES. Best comment ever!
Trevor and Marques feels like a dream, and I think many people will relate.
If you like BOTH Trevor and Marques, you're on the better side of the internet. I like it here
It's so sweet how evident it is that Trevor has actually been watching MKBHD for a while and not just "high level research before the show". To think...me and The Trevor Noah both hang out in the MKBHD comment section haha
It is not just the tech, but the delivery. There are many tech reviewers, but only one MKB!
He's got the fastest delivery, too :D
MKB4K MKB8K
@@zants_ so true, he's usually the first one to cover all that. Love to see it
I absolutely love how bad Trevor wanted Marques to pump his chest and be real about how much of the game he runs and how raw and honest his success is. Marquees YOU ARE HIM. You made a black kid believe he wasn’t weird and made him love his passions more. Thank you
Two of the most remarkable young black men discussing tech, politics, EVs, AI, and everything else is the feared nightmare for politicians and people who refuse to imagine the future of our world. Everyone above the age of 50 and beyond listens to be educated.
I’m blessed to have my two favorite people in one virtual room.
The Waveform and What Now together... Thanks Santa, We appreciate.
I absolutely love this! Trevor has a way of giving his guests the recognition and respect they deserve while still diving into tough, thought-provoking questions without hesitation.
Trevor is SOOO fanboying in this episode, lol. It's awesome! Great to see you here Marques! 😄
best of both worlds. MKBHD is wise and Trevor is always interesting to listen to. you always yearning to hear more and more...
Oh wow… What an interesting guest!
This podcast is incredibly wholesome. I love Trevor and Marques, and I thoroughly enjoyed this episode. I appreciated that they addressed the controversies rather than ignoring them. It truly made my day.
If I'm buying a new piece of teck I check the MKBHD review before buying it. He is very useful and I appreciate his efforts.
I subscribed because of MKBHD because anywhere he is or goes that place has something of value.
Two of my best RUclips people Trevor and Marques.. Very insightful, factual, fun, lively and just absolutely amazing! And now getting them on one show? I mean what did I do to deserve this awesomeness 😢
Very interesting discussion, great job, I've been a fan of 2/3 of you for over a decade! Regarding the tail end of the talk I've always felt Marques is VERY well versed on how big corporations work and how decisions are made, and appreciate him always trying to ease the blow that the public gives when a company releases a "bad" product.
I'm new to Marques but I love this conversation.
Sooo many great things about this video. One of favourites is Marques talking about “Tech Buckets”. That’s something I’ve always been very conscious of.
I haven't seen a lot of this podcast yet but this was a fantastic episode, Marques is a great guest and he's so humble too. Was great hearing everyone's thoughts on tech, social media, youtube, etc. And i could've never guessed Trevor would be such a fanboy 😂😂
Stumbled across this video accidentally and love it throughout!!! This conversation should have been 4 hrs long 🤚🏻🤚🏻
Can’t wait! My two favorite people on the internet in the same room
FACTS! MKBHD IS the reason why I clicked on this video and watched all the way thru, even replaying certain moments...
Completely agree with Trevor. The controversial incidents themselves aside, the way Marques handled them humbly was commendable especially considering he’s basically earned the right to be a bit arrogant at this point.
I would love to see Trevor on the waveform podcast
His really a tech nerd
@londwangcobo2032 I would love to see Trevor's reaction when he sees Marques robot
Marques is such a thoughtful and intentional person, I really admire his take on things, how he posts, what he posts and also, what he chooses to not post about. I hope one day, he will be president.
I love this video...
apart from the never before seen MKBHD Potato Cam.
I love Marques for his ALWAYS CRISP video, man... 😥😍
Great interview! What I love about Trevor’s interviews is that he always asks the right questions that make sense to us viewers and maybe that I haven’t thought of but would like to know abut the Interviewee… love MKBHD he’s the Best!! 🤗🤗😊
Trevor Noah and MKBHD in one video is one great combination.
Hi Christina 👋🏿...wow your voice is so soothing.
Great job, guys ✌🏿
Always look for Marques reviews about any tech I’m interested in. And the Waveform podcast
That bit about I point the camera at the tech and then it's on the tech to shine and stress and improve. When the subject is you, you have to keep leveling up. Such a well put thought. Great stuff. Still half way through :)
Why am I just now learning Trevor Noah has his own show? Sending love from ILLINOIS!!
Trevor’s wrap up salute to Marquez for saving us tons of money and time by analyzing and dissecting tech things was on point! Great interview/chat vlog that was pleasant and enlightening and let me now know that Trevor has been a behind the scenes tech lover for a long time! Thanks fellas, and lady 👏🙂
I’m normally not into listening to tech videos but this was an interesting watch. Like you guys said, sometimes it isn’t the general content subject that draws us in but the way the information is broken down and the people that put it out. Thanks 🙏
28:39 Trevor is spitting facts here
Marques also has a fantastic team with character. People don't dealise that they also add to the videos, I love seeing their different personalities on The Studio channel
Yesss I love you guys , so proud of you both keep up the good work
32:52 Good point! Taking notes , never make yourself the focus if you don’t want to lose your mind
My two worlds collided today. I love MKBHD
You nailed it Trevor... "you r relaseing AI Marques before it's ready.."
First video I’ve watched on the channel, loved it.
Sticking around for more videos 🫡🫡
I hv been waiting for this for a long time. I can’t wait to watch this, my two favourite kings ❤ . For now I’m going to download this and watch later. Keep doing what you’re are doing❤😂🎉 . And let be a one time
I’m happy to see these two smart men from different disciplines take on current trends , and the lady too😊
Very interesting conversation. Love Trevor and Marques.
This is amazing. Trevor interviewing Marques! Nice!
pleasure to watch this video. Keep up the amazing work
35:02 Trevor, some videos I've watched of people enacting your specials are part of my favorites, - not because of their quality or production, I tend to think it's because of your delivery and the mastery of comedy, and your unique voice - the jokes are the prize - in the local fashion of breakups - it's you not them.
MKBHD is that guy! Best of the best.
Wonderful podcast guys. Keep up the great work.
This is something I never thought I would see, amazing
I love this episode!
33:15 THAT POINT thats why i love MKHB... the man has a valid point there!
Some good points raised. I would like to see, and think they are more necessary than given credit, is 1) we need to have companies, researchers etc, have to full within the same plagiarism rules as everyone else. 2) tech companies need to be treated as publishers for the content on their platform(s).
These two changes will help moderate and give a better, more sustainable, pace to the development of machine learning algorithms and AI.
It was so interesting that i watched the whole video ! Yeah the advice manques gave at the end is. Very well said !
So good so good
Omg my two favorite on one show at the same time. It was everything that I didnt know I needed.🎉🎉🎉
We need a part two ASAP.
So good so good😊
My 1st time on your page, I am MKBHD’s ardent fan. Great episode. The lady looked extremely exhausted though.
The part about regulation had me jumping probably because I am an AI law expert! I wanted to scold you both as aunt Patricia would hahaha. I love you both, and have been following both of you for years. My 2 cents: Although a lot of talk happens around AI, I think most ignore the work that's being done on the regulation side, mostly in Europe where I live and practice. I think the european approach is not perfect but is a great example of how AI should be regulated (as a matter of fact, most countries are replicating the european model). In my craziest dreams, I see myself having an amazing conversation with these two about AI regulations and the intricacies of the laws that impose that "self regulation" Marques was talking about.
Is US law much different to EU law?
@@benjimc1US does not have a comprehensive federal law on AI overall. There are nonetheless some bills and a Biden Executive order for the public administration and guidelines for companies. Some US states have drafted and/or enacted state bills for some aspects of AI use like Colorado, New York and California. What is interesting in Europe is that there is one binding regulation that not only applies to all European Union countries but also companies located in foreign countries who want to sell their AI in the EU market (like OpenAI, Microsoft etc). This is why some open AI features for instance will take some time before being available in Europe because they need to comply with the law first.
If Trevor is not on waveform, I am going to riot. Kidding!! Love this episode.
True that everything has become niche, I once went on RUclips I saw a couple watching an analysing Trevor's stand-up videos 📹.....😅 Trevor Bafo this is so true.
Love to see you guys in one virtual room...❤
We love you brother Marques❤
I just watched a video of Tyler Perry flying his RC plane and showing his hanger. I think what Trevor said about us not knowing these Celebrities' personalities is true. I never thought Tyler Perrry would be an RC fan enthusiast but a RUclips video has shown me that. So Marques had a point about them being anle to express their personalities on RUclips
I’m not really into tech like that but damn this was a very interesting interview and I loved how the guest delivered his answers 👌🏾
I have loved seeing Trevor's tech conscious side😂
I like how the conversation remained grounded without the hyperbole that often comes with tech.
This is unexpected. I love this!
Great episode, thought it was cool to have the insight on those from an opposing view on AI vs the simplification it can bring to handle day to day activities once it reaches that point as MKBHD describes, so there are different levels of impact. I also am not a fan of marketing a product that is not yet ready, then having a release and being told "wait for it".
Love his car review videos. His take is didderent than others. Honest. Like his golf vids too.
😂😂
Wowww MKBHD 👏👏
Amazing interview. But seeing Marques in a less than crispy video is strange.
@@Ayahbababa are you one of the rare 8k watchers?
@@macbere3326 sadly, no :D But Marques' zoom video reminds me of the video I took with my Nokia years ago.
Thanks!
Welcome Back from Vacation Mr. Noah and What Now Team!!!
Happy New Year 2025🎉🎉🎉. We missed you 😊. We hope you are all ready to get starting this again?
Co-host seems warned out already😅 (the posture on the seat).
What a beautiful way to start the podcasts editions of the year 2025. So much to uncover from this conversation.
Some take aways for us;
- Technology (Tech) review (evaluation) is possible in these days and your guest is one of those in the field. All our encouragements 👍🏾.
- Tech is still not "best" despite all the efforts in making it "perfect" (if humans can trade their responsibilities for the Tech, it should be the least very very excellent-perfect).
- Tech in this conversation is understood as a double-edged weapon. Safety risk, misinformation and exposure to toxic contents are some possible issues related to tech and its effects in our society.
- Tech is also the fastest, most discret way to ,plagiarism (content thefts) and it requires one to be skilled in the field to tackle the phenomenon accurately,
- The media treatment of information still suffers from defection (least researched, emotions based and so on...),
- There are possibility upcoming projects with Mr. Trevor Noah and teams ahead for this year.
Yeah! We can't wait.
On This issue, we just suggest that the most common human gets the opportunity to be trained in tech. If we area looking forward to having AI to be considered as worth Getting a certain access to our humanity, we need to have control over it.
Welcome back again to you all, Mr. Noah. We enjoyed the humour in studio, the lively interactions, as well as the topic.
We also love your look🤩.
Looking forward to the shows and events ahead🥰.

Hello Trevor. And yes, MKBHD is the main man in tech.
That was awesome!
I LOVE this Black Nerd Talk !!!....
Great video
2024 was a year that mkbhd had some mishaps for sure. But the guy is a solid tech reviewer
Marques is definitely among the fastest, that's for sure
Love it! Just earned you a Sub.
Trevor throws compliments around like its a tax deduction, I'm here for it. Makes the world a little bit warmer when people are so freely kind.
Man see MKBHD, man watch. It's that simple 😊
41:23 thank you for saying this Marques 😂 people do forget that fhese RUclipsrs have whole teams behind everything.
hearing Marques speak right next to trevor reminds me that accents are real YOH.
you think they'll sound closer to each other coz trevor has been in the US for so long
Trevor on the waveform podcast, who says no? 😁
Trevor and Marques????? Yeeeeeess!!
I love Marques Brownlee! I appreciate how humble he is being, but I continue to watch his videos because of the way HE presents the tech and how he comes across personally to me. I wish him and his team continued success.
Have you been under a rock? I wouldn’t describe him as humble post-speeding incident
@tylerpoe8628 Have you heard of grace?
I've never clicked on a RUclips video faster in my entire life! 😂
Outstanding, thanks
I enjoyed it 😁
Christiana, congratulations 😍🥹
Take care 🙏🏽
For those who don't know, MKBHD team have The Studio channel who make other team members more prominent there. He also hired ex Mr. Beast producer last year. He'll cook something big.
enjoyable podcast episode
Love this podcast and episode… Cory Doctorow’s term “enshittification”?
The most powerful person in tech marketing
OMG, two of my fave ppl!!!
44:30 MKBHD doing 90mph in a school zone deserved the outrage
Lol - RUclips knows I love MKBHD and that's how I got here.
55:35 - the theme for the DEF CON security conference this past year was "enshittification". coincidence?
