      What I found interesting was his impression on academic papers. He’s spot-on that “almost none are worth ALL of your time.” But many are!
      I wish there was a reliable compendium of genius papers that was widely published for general readers. I’ve read papers that are far greater works of art than the “great” works they analyze-and they are more often that not from undergraduates! Because they haven’t been pounded down (yet) by the drab and highly conventional demands of academic lecture and dissertation. In fact, it tends to be the most unimaginative and least creative that rise in the academic world-very much to its detriment.

    Love the last point Lex is making. This is something Elon mentioned as well. We all want a future where it is easy to get out of bed in the morning. Where we are so excited to get to work every single day to pursue something that matters the most to us. We have to inspire ourselves and get inspired by things like this podcast.
    “I’m excited about the possibilities robotics brings.”

      How ever it could get done on a new channel (A duplicate channel)
      The android RUclips application can only double speed.
      If you have it at double already then could increase it more.
      By steps of 0.5 percent.
