00:00I think it is unacceptable to be taking like a 10% chance of killing everybody by the end of
00:04the
00:04decade. One of my reactions to that post, the Jacob Coxon post, was just, okay, so you worked
00:09at these companies for three years. Do you have an email you can share where leaders disregarded
00:14the risks of moving quickly? Is there something in the research process that you would change
00:18specifically? Is there a law you think would really help with the slowdown? Is it to limit
00:23data center construction or is it to limit something else? If you work at a company for
00:26this long, you might have an idea about how to save your own life if you're saying it
00:31might kill you. It's technology you've been working on by the end of the decade. So I think
00:34we really need to ask a lot more of the people in the industry. It's great they're speaking
00:39out, but we need more substantive conversation around this and we need to not just accept
00:44a viral social media post. We need to go deeper. Playing devil's advocate for a second, there
00:48have been other people this weekend who have been very skeptical of these claims of kind
00:53of mass catastrophe. Some people have said this is all a marketing campaign by the men,
00:58and it's largely men, running these companies who want to emphasize the influence and power
01:03of their businesses in the run up to many of them or a couple of them trying to IPO.
01:08I think people are starting to feel genuinely in their stomachs, their heart and minds that,
01:12hey, this might not be good. And so it's reaching, it's just grown to the point that his post
01:17came at the right time and it used the word kill, it's going to kill us all. It's hard
01:22to not react to that.
