    The podcast between Lex Fridman and Elon Musk is a fascinating and thought-provoking discussion on a wide range of topics, including artificial intelligence, space exploration, and the future of humanity.
    One of the most interesting aspects of the podcast is the way that Lex and Elon challenge each other's thinking. Lex is a trained scientist and engineer, and he brings a rigorous and analytical approach to the conversation. Elon, on the other hand, is a visionary entrepreneur with a bold and optimistic view of the future. This combination of perspectives makes for a lively and engaging discussion.
    One of the key themes of the podcast is the potential of artificial intelligence to both help and harm humanity. Lex and Elon discuss the potential for AI to solve some of the world's most pressing problems, such as climate change and poverty. However, they also acknowledge the risks of AI, such as the potential for job displacement and even existential threats.
    Another key theme of the podcast is the future of space exploration. Lex and Elon discuss the potential for humans to colonize Mars and other planets. They also discuss the importance of space exploration for scientific research and technological development.
    Overall, the podcast is a thought-provoking and insightful discussion on some of the most important issues facing humanity today. Lex and Elon are both brilliant and articulate thinkers, and their conversation is a valuable contribution to the public discourse.
    Here are some of my personal insights on Lex and Elon's thought processes about humanity:
    Lex is a strong advocate for evidence-based thinking. He is always looking for data and analysis to support his claims. This makes him a valuable voice in the world of artificial intelligence, where there is often a lot of hype and speculation.
    Elon is a visionary thinker. He is not afraid to dream big and think outside the box. This has made him a successful entrepreneur, but it has also led him to make some controversial statements.
    I believe that Lex and Elon complement each other well. Lex provides the data and analysis, while Elon provides the vision and inspiration. Together, they are a powerful force for good in the world.
    I believe that the podcast between Lex and Elon is an important contribution to the public discourse. It is a thoughtful and insightful discussion some of the most important issues facing humanity today. I highly recommend listening to it.

    With most other interviewers I feel that I've heard it all and I'm just listening to Elon say things he's said a 1000 times. Not with Lex. His questions really allowed Elon to go deeper and share his thoughts in ways that we would never hear from 99% of other interviews. Thank-you Lex. What a beautiful way to spend the first few hours after midnight on new years day (for me).

    • @CharveL88

      Honestly, I was a bit disappointed that the practical questions didn't go deeper. I could've done without the "What is love" and esoteric stuff, which is mostly a waste of time. Save those for Peterson. It's hard enough to find interviews asking deeper engineering, science and production questions with Elon. All we get from the mainstream interviews is the vapid questions meant for people who've only heard of Elon and that he makes cars that magically drive themselves.
      I'm not ragging on Lex, just that I would've liked to hear more than cursory questions about the actually relevant stuff like Neuralink, Dojo, etc, and less grading memes. I don't care what Elon's favorite colour and lucky number is, or what his definition of "love" is.
      No, I don't even care what type of society Elon thinks people on mars will form. I'd rather hear what he thinks will be the major engineering challenges utilizing regolith to build infrastructure, or actual practical things like that. Leave the shallow question stuff to the vapid mainstream interviewers.
      The deep dive into Tesla's self driving software, is what should've happened with the other subjects, but it was still overall a great interview.

Then they can just nationalize them all, and get a bunch of free factories for companies controlled by the CCP.

    It’s June 16th, 2023 when I’m writing this. I didn’t watch this video just now, I watched it probably when it first came out. But I was watching the video of Elon on a stage in Paris just now. I just didn’t know how to pass a message through the universe to Elon.
    I love you man. Thanks for all you’re doing. I get your jokes 😁 even if the Paris crowd doesn’t. That was hilarious! It was even funnier ‘cause no one was laughing while you were. I was laughing bro. 😆 I just cracked up at that Meth joke for about 5 minutes, shaking my dog sitting beside me on the couch, saying “that’s our guy!”
    I respect you so much and I think of your inspiration like an older brother inspiring me. I respect the search and connection to truth. That’s important to me too. I hope you have an awesome group of friends around you and I hope you stay the course. Thank you so much bro. Love you man. I’m cheering for you. I’m proud of you. All the best.

    Loved this interview. I was struck by Elon's advice for life, "Try and be useful." He went on to say that being useful was incredibly difficult. I believe being useful can be simply a state of mind. My daughter manages an AM/PM selling junk food and gasoline. But she is so important for so many people just going through their day. To some many people, filling their tank on the way to work and grabbing a quick cup of coffee and some donuts is such a vital part of their day. My daughter keeps a very clean well stocked store and she is polite and cheerful to everyone she meets. She actually attracts repeat customers. How do I know? Customers have told her so. She is, in short, useful. We all have purpose if we look for it

    I give Elon credit. I do like that he can quote out of pocket things you'd never expect.
    I enjoy having knowledge someone else doesn't have, and being able to give information on the spot people didn't think I'd know.
    It must be a good feeling for Elon given he knows quite a lot. He knows a lot more than me that's for sure, but I'll steadily learn and even if I never go as far in life as he did. I can still learn, and share.

    Let's just take a moment to appreciate the wonderful life of opportunities we live today.
    I am sitting near the chimney in a 500 people village in center-south Italy. If the Internet didn't exist the only thing I could have done was probably to be a farmer and sell harvests on local markets, speaking italian dialect with no clue about how the world works.
    Now I do speak and understand English. I am a computer Scientist and software engineer. I studied physics and I am aware that the life we live today is not magic. The way we control information and excite electromagnetic fields and build on top of that protocols and abstractions and digital circuits and compilers and operating systems and browsers and media and content it just a marvellous engineering effort by the most awesome species ever existed in the universe as far as I know.
    I am so grateful for being born in the 21st century and have the possibility to learn so much from some of the smartest and thoughtful people in the world.
    Thanks Elon, thanks Lex.

    Elon mentionning the fuel problems the German had during WW2 reminded me that the Nazis putting their hands on all the fuel they could find in occupy France was one of the reason for french engineer Louis Breguet to create an electric car back in 1941. My grand father had one, I remember seeing it as a kid. I think a few hundred models only were produced. It could go around 50km/hour and travel 100km distance on a charge, and I think it took 24 hours to recharge the battery... no Tesla super charger back then. LOL

    And see the stars up close

    Have all helped us to understand the universe
    They have shown us that there is so much more to learn
    And that we are just a small part of something much bigger
    (Verse 2)
    I'm inspired by their work
    And I'm grateful for their contributions
    They have made me think about the world in a new way
    And they have given me hope for the future

    I know that I can't do everything that they have done
    But I can try to make a difference in the world
    I can learn about the universe
    And I can share my knowledge with others

    Have all helped us to understand the universe
    They have shown us that there is so much more to learn

    A short summary:
    - Finishing high stress situations sucessfully you feel more relief than elation
    - Most difficult problem regarding starship is engine production, right from the materials to design you have to have the best of everything to make the best engine
    - Mindset of Elon: When something is important enough, you have to get it done. there’s no factor of motivation or anything in order to work on something
    - Thinking in terms of first principles can be applied to any walk of life, just have an axiomatic base that you believe in and then you reason up from there to cross check your conclusion with the axiomatic truth.
    - Another mental model of thinking is to take a thing and scale it to a very large or a very small number and see how do things change ( you can use it to scale a product large and see if its still expensive by which you can arrive at an conclusion to work on the design of the product or not)
    - it's important to think of these things like probabilities, not certainties, there's a probability that something bad will happen on earth. Hence, its best that we work towards making life a multi planetary species
    - Probably in mars, direct democracy over representational democracy works best!
    - Helpful to think money in terms of information theory, with fiat currency the error in the database keeps increasing as government tries to print more money, cryptocurrency is an attempt to reduce this error created by the government.
    - Bitcoin is useful as a store of wealth but not as a day to day currency. Dogecoin could be used as a day to day currency as a fixed number of hash string gets generated every year and inflation reduces over time.
    - It is possible that satoshi nakamoto is Nick Szabo
    - Replacing processed images by raw photon inputs from camera and switching more traditional code over the neural network (as it does seem have to hit its global maximum on vector space creation)
    - Lot of bare-metal coding C/C++ is required for tesla self driving traditonally more on the control part after input has processed
    - Human robots are a thing, might replace manual un-interesting work.
    - History is a good way to learn and understand about the nature of civilization and indiviuals
    - Advice to young people: Try to be useful, ask youself are you contributing more than you consume? To have a net positive contribution to the society would be the right thing to aim for.
    - Reading a condensed version of the Britannica encyclopedia can be useful. Just read,read as much as you can.
    - Having a growth of the pie mindset, over thinking in terms of zero-sum game is useful. Usually many people think in terms of zero sum game, but that is rarely the case as the pie gets bigger as more people get involved
    - Whats the meaning of life? The answer is the universe, now its just a matter of asking the right questions. Elons foundation of philosophy is that he is curious about the nature of the universe. But we will not live forever, hence expanding the scope and scale of consciousness is fundamentally a good thing.
