00:00thank you very much for tuning in this is my second video on Elizabeth Holmes of Theranos

00:14if you haven't done so already check out my first video so in this in the last video I

00:19actually highlighted the way Elizabeth Holmes is always stringing together big words in a very

00:26general sense but is not answering the question she's choosing a very general big topic that no

00:34one can really refute or that no one can really argue with but she does it in order to avoid

00:40answering a very specific question so in this video I want to highlight the way she rehearses

00:47answers and how extremely uncomfortable she becomes if she doesn't have a rehearsed answer

00:55and the most absurd thing about how uncomfortable she is is that the question she is asked and then

01:04she's giving her answer it's making her very uncomfortable she could have just said I don't

01:08know she could have just given her honest opinion that would reveal that she doesn't have any idea

01:14about this industry which is fine you can't know every industry she's in the med tech industry and

01:20she's getting a question on renewable energy so obviously she wouldn't know all of that but she

01:25still feels like she has to answer in a way she would have to answer a medical question but since it

01:32isn't rehearsed she's basically naked running against the wall because she doesn't have the expertise and

01:39she's really really afraid of how she looks and you can see it in her face and you can also see it by the

01:45way the interviewer reacts funny enough I mean this is kind of a funny scenario in this video we have

01:51bill clinton interviewing jack ma and elizabeth holmes so this is a very interesting dynamic there

01:57so let's get right to the first question so the first one will be rehearsed and you can see how

02:02comfortable she is she's laughing and everything and the second one will be unrehearsed and she's

02:07gonna immediately be extremely uncomfortable first tell them just in two sentences what you're doing

02:13because jack and i know and we haven't been clear enough explain it and explain how you think that

02:19advances social solidarity and equality of opportunity our work is in the belief that access to health

02:29information is a basic human right and that lab information particularly because lab data drives

02:3870 percent of clinical decisions needs to be accessible to people before they're sick so if

02:47you look at the word diagnosed in the dictionary today it says to determine the presence of disease from

02:54symptoms which means by definition we're determining that people are sick once a disease has already

03:01progressed and our work is in being able to make lab testing accessible to people in time for therapy

03:11to be affected and to do that in a way in which every person irrespective of their insurance status

03:18irrespective of where they live can afford the ability to get a test done so that means in our case we've

03:26invested the last twelve years in now developing hundreds of tests many of which are less than ten

03:33dollars so in two dollar tests in the united states and i think one of the amazing things about this

03:41country is that we have such an incredible ecosystem for fueling creativity and that creativity can create new

03:51markets so in answer to your question about the market being able to conform itself to social

03:57good i think the creativity that goes into creating news new technologies creates new markets in and of

04:03themselves and and our basic belief that is that those new markets come from empowering individuals and

04:09enfranchising individuals and trusting that individuals have the capability to engage with information and in accessing that

04:19information beginning to take control of their own outcomes and their own health outcomes and in doing so

04:25okay stop so you can see that she keeps talking about a very broad vision so once again instead of asking

04:33i mean the question was very broad but she's always trying to sell on a broader vision and she's avoiding

04:39talking about a company she's not talking about a company at all she's just talking about a general vision of

04:44life it's almost like if you listen to that and you're wondering who she is or someone would ask

04:50you is she either the ceo of a large company that is exactly in that niche that she was asked about

04:55about health care or is she a politician or is she from some non-profit you couldn't answer because

05:03you would think okay if she was a technical person she would probably be much more technical about how it works

05:09if she had a company she would probably plug her company and if she was a politician she would

05:14probably talk more about policy targets so you couldn't really understand how does she fit in

05:20because she answers in such a broad way that is completely detached from her but this is not the

05:25point the point is very rehearsed her answer is very rehearsed and by the way i'm completely agreeing

05:31with what she's saying she's talking about how it would be better to diagnose a disease before it

05:37occurs to really track people and if there are early warning signs of a disease to being very early on

05:45able to avoid that path so to avoid the trajectory she's saying i would say correct things things that

05:53sound good but she's only doing that because they sound good so yeah let's now see how she answers a

05:59question about an industry she knows nothing about and how she's struggling to still give a comprehensive

06:05answer which in my eyes makes no sense there's no shame in saying i don't know especially if it's

06:11not your expertise if she was asked a medtech question and she says i don't know that would be odd

06:17but since she's a technical ceo that has is only focusing on healthcare and then now she's asked a

06:24question about renewable energy it's completely fine to say i don't know this is completely irrelevant

06:30and yet she has to keep up the facade that she knows everything and i think it's a reflex i think

06:37she didn't sit at home and think okay if i'm gonna be asked some off-topic question i have to give the

06:42best answer to seem smart i think she's so in the process of trying not to be found out that she's just

06:50it's almost like she's attacking everything every doubt every question she has to attack it so she goes

06:55there but what i find really instructive is her face at the end of it you can see that she's completely

07:01at the end do you believe that it's possible for us to scale up with distributed solar power

07:12rather than centralized as quick as we did with a cell phone and if so and if that were your business

07:17if you had to quit what you're doing today and start there how would you do it and how would you do it

07:25really first i know that you know i'm i'm such a huge believer in technology and i think especially

07:35right now we're at an incredible time in terms of new technology and the ability to apply technology

07:41in a scalable way towards solving some of these problems so i would look at it in the context

07:46so the face of jack ma he's like making this whole emotional i don't know what she's talking about

07:55she was you can see that she's getting a little bit desperate i'm sorry to be mean i don't she's

08:00probably not a bad person i mean she's not a murderer she clearly made some she okay she probably

08:06has a very questionable character and she probably hurt a lot of people even though she didn't do it

08:11physically but not not to punch down because obviously she's now being prosecuted and whatever

08:18but you can you can see how desperate she is by really stringing words together more quickly

08:24instead of saying you can really see that technologies uniquely have the ability to scale

08:32and this scales and bubble and then you just talk like really takes her time but if she's desperate

08:38she's starting to say technology scaling environment like she's almost forgetting the words in between

08:43she's only checking the big words so she was doing that here but you can see now obviously

08:49big clinton he doesn't care i mean he has seen everything like you can see him sitting there he's

08:54like it's almost like it's almost like he's eating ice cream he's just sitting there jack ma now makes

09:00this whole motion uh yeah let's just keep going so i would look at it in the context of some of the

09:06renewable solutions that we already have and in the context of empowering connecting individuals with access

09:13to those solutions and in the context of creating markets around them i think that there's real

09:19opportunity to actually create an ecosystem in which people can financially benefit from these solutions

09:24and i think that's going to drive an adoption i think in developing economies there's a revenue stream

09:29associated with that and the more we can turn even already some of the technologies that we have

09:35into markets the more that we can fuel i believe local growth and individual engagement in in

09:41beginning to adopt some of these solutions stop you can see her face it's almost like she stopped

09:51breathing it's like it's almost like for a minute she was just talking and she stopped breathing it's

09:56like if you roll it back and you just watch her face her facial expressions are starting to be really

10:05quick even before that so normally you take your time like if you smile it's a very slow smile and um

10:12everything is kind of elastic everything is very elastic but when you're very stressed everything becomes

10:18twitchy so you can see that for her things were becoming twitchy already and now she is like so tense

10:27she's so uncomfortable this answer in her mind was the worst answer you could have ever given

10:33she was put on the spot she it's like she was in a fight and she lost and you can see how upset her

10:41face looks completely stressed it's like so much fear in her face from that what i find interesting is

10:47that first of all bill clinton is such a pro this is the last question she gets in the whole interview

10:53the whole interview goes for another 12 minutes and she's not saying anything anymore so now the rest is

11:01just gonna be jack ma and bill clinton because i think he kind of realized you can see like if

11:06you're on stage with someone you can see if they're comfortable or not and the worst thing you can have

11:11is when you're on stage and someone is uncomfortable because they might put it on the audience and then

11:17the audience is gonna feel bad so you don't want anyone nervous on stage unless it's cute nervous unless

11:23someone says oh i'm so nervous but you don't want to have anyone being aggressively nervous and then really

11:30making the whole audience cringe so she is in that spot which is fine like everyone can get in that

11:37spot especially if things are extremely stressful especially if you're a billionaire founder of this

11:44billion dollar company and you're complete fraud and you're afraid that every single question can put

11:50you in jail basically because of this comes out so she is on a lot of stress but it's like flip of the

11:56the flip of the coin kind of stress because it can happen anytime even if things are calm so yeah her

12:03face this was actually the whole point of the video i just wanted to highlight the difference between

12:09rehearsed and unrehearsed and i think this is how you can see a person who is playing an act that's not

12:16really there she doesn't she is unable to say i don't know for whatever reason she's unable to say i don't

12:24know i have to research that i don't know that because she always has to win if she loses she

12:32loses her identity because she's playing that identity every normal person has different roles

12:39maybe here you're professional when you're at work maybe here you're an athlete when you're doing

12:43exercise maybe here you're a nutrition expert when you check it when you fix your diet or whatever it is

12:50so we all have different roles but we kind of switch between them we recognize that we're not the best

12:55but if one role is all that you have if your role is being a professional and you have nothing else you

13:02have no social life nothing then you can be threatened by the smallest things and you can see

13:08how she is threatened by the smallest thing yeah let's see maybe this is going to be my last video on

13:14elizabeth holmes i found it very interesting yeah let's see how this goes thank you very much for

13:20watching thanks for tuning in bye
