Lex tell Elon motivate me so much in my life love u Elon😢
does the great lex reply to real human people commenting on his youtube
Why doesn't Lex ask Elon to teach him some Afrikaans words?
Hello Lex I have been down and discovered I have cancer. Please tell Elon he is my hero and LOVE your content ❤
Elon, I’ll keep you company 😉😉😉
I love how Lex asked "How are you doing?". That was very kind of him.
That’s a Jordan Peterson easter egg.
I think so, too.
Due to a small glitch in his system....
It's so heart warming when two sentient robots come together and share their vulnerabilities. Gives me hope for humanity
lol
Spot on😂
Lmao 😂
These kind of guys would probably fail Turing test
Yes please hurry
"There are many nights I sleep alone, I don't have to, but I do." - Elon Musk ... he just proved money doesn't buy happiness right there... at least he is honest, I respect that a lot.
So you just respect someone for saying something cheezy just because he is a billionaire? Um. Unless he is paying you personally, you have no reason to feel obligated to respect and worship him. I respect people who do not constantly lie about stuff more.
I always sleep alone ..having someone in the bed next too me makes me unhappy
He is so honest he did scams with crypto even though he is a billionaire I have no respect for anyone especially very rich who scams.
@@muresanandrei7565
He’s never scammed anyone on crypto. He tweeted about two cryptos and both blew up made many people lots of money…
He never tweeetd about them before they collapsed or were at an all time high already..
You totally git it wrong!
"Trying to defeat Uber Lilith."
"Uber Lilith" is a video game boss in the Diablo 4 game. They spoke about her earlier in the podcast. It was just a joke but he kind of mumbled it.
Thank you!
You are an awesome person.
Lol thank you I thought he was drunk and mumbled “trying to defeat evil doers”
thx
Thank you I was so confused
Loneliness and being alone are not the same, loneliness is a feeling that one also can experience when surrounded by friends or family, thats the worst part of it
Very true. You can be around people, but not feel seen, listened to, or understood. It takes loving caring relationships to ward loneliness away. ❤
Facts
Very true, agreed.
Loneliness and being alone are not the same, loneliness is a feeling that one also can experience when surrounded by friends or family, thats the worst part of it
I think you meant to describe solitude vs loneliness
'My mind is a storm.' - I believe it. Thank you for that Mr. Fridman, well done.
Look up Within Heaven's Gates by Rebecca Springer 😇
Kinda the definition of minds these days. For better or for worse.
@@baileystark7629 Elon has a brainstorm of a genius, there is a significant difference.
@@robertm3561 Uhm. No. You don’t know him. Neither do I. I do know that he got rich selling zip2 to compaq for 300 million dollars similar to Mark Cuban. Zip2 never made a dime and was a flop. Got very very lucky just like Mark. It’s arguable that without that we wouldn’t even know who he is.
He sells a persona because he understands that his persona sells Teslas. He’s very smart. But he is no genius. He contradicts himself constantly.
Advocating for AI, investing in Open AI, basically owning it in the 2010s and then selling it because he wasn’t making money to Microsoft. And then once it takes off, starts talking about how dangerous it is for big tech to have AI. It’s like bro your the cause of them having it. You could’ve open sourced it at any point and you didn’t. And then you sold it to them.
Said he would open source Twitter. Never did.
Says he worked and works 24/7 and talks about how much he works. Finds himself at every gala with Amber Heard and friends having 11 babies and playing loads of video games. People can tweet anything.
If I had billions I could paint a genius picture. Especially if it’s in my economic best interest to do so.
You have to take things with a grain of salt. Critically think. These people on the internet, you will never really know. You see what they want you to see.
Do I think Elon is smart. Yes. Is he a genius absolutely not. A genius definitely would not have closed source open AI and then sell it to Microsoft.
What’s unique about him is he’s a smart billionaire who doesn’t let the money satisfy him too much so he does some stuff like buy Twitter and tries to FUND going to Mars.
To be clear I like that Elon is out there. Especially compared to other billionaires like Zuckerberg. I just get tired of the hero worship and claims from people who have no idea who he is.
He’s like Taylor Swift but for tech. A pretty good musician but by no means the best, but being the richest and most famous one exalts you into a cult fandom place of musical genius and that gives you opportunities no one else has which cult fans then perceive as genius. Same with Elon but with tech.
"I swear to you gentlemen, to be overly conscious is an illness; a real, thorough-going illness." -Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Notes from the Underground
I suffer from that. I just can't turn it off. On the one had i am proud to be overly conscious, on the other hand i envy others who are not overly conscious.
@@Marcus_Berger1701I get that
@@Marcus_Berger1701Ignorance is bliss?
@@Marcus_Berger1701I think maybe we all feel that way and it’s part of the human condition. I suppose some explore consciousness more than others. Definitely. But it’s in all of us I think. That feeling.
Why is it an illness? I think it is rather a privilege
I saw so much pain in this man today, he’s lonely, depressed, overworked, but his answers he tried to brush it off and tried to keep talking about technology 😢 being rich doesn’t mean happiness
Happiness is 21 century drug. Your either do something good and feel pain or going drug. You can’t combine
You don't know any of that 😂😂😂 you just want to feel better with your life cause you don't have all the money you want and he does have it. I mean if believing that he is suffering makes you feel better about your life.....
Happiness is not a real thing, its an overused marketing word in my opinion. Joy is a real emotion but it comes and goes quickly. You get moments of it throughout the day. In reality no being is constantly in a state of euphoria because then they wouldnt survive. Savor those moments but endure all other feelings equally.
I don't think he pursues wealth and doesn't claim to be happy let alone because of his wealth. It seems he doesn't devote his time to pursing either. He has goals and obsesses over them but his goals are not wealth or happiness
I felt the Same way! And it breaks my heart seeing and feeling his pain.
The point where you say "how're doing?" Very simple yet powerful. People nowadays don't ask others how they're doing, they tell you how they're doing.
I ask. Let's keep asking.
yeh i go to people and tell them "im doing good btw"
same, u catch them offguard and hopefully make them think to not just think about themselves@@lemonstrangler
It reminded me of the ending of American Beauty
if I were to answer that question (How are you doing) I'd have to be complaining. And I don't like that.
This clip should be the the one that makes Lex a LEGEND in this space. What perfect questions, timing, empathy and ability to play out the conversation. Bravo.
Precisely what I was thinking. I love how he lets his guests process the questions and answer without interrupting them, unlike Chris Williamson for example.
I chose loneliness. It brings peace and with peace brings time and with time brings clarity and true thought. I am in a constant state of meditation when i am not burdened with the drama, emotions and agendas of others. Ive met too many bad people in my life. I hold the good ones close and they are few.
i don't think there are good or bad people, each person has some good and some bad in their heart. sometimes it just takes more time for the good to surface, and it might be our fault we can't see it
what a difference between Elon talking with Lex and with Joe...completely different energy!!
Wow yes. I recognised that instantly, too.
He was more real here.
@@babybaby5893but i thought he was a good friend of Joe and feels more connected with him
What was the difference ?
They would all like a 3 way tuggy
Elon's words and the manner in which he expresses them, combined with the years I've spent on this planet, lead me to believe that, regardless of one's actions or possessions, if a storm brews in the mind, it becomes a lifelong challenge. The most effective way to perceive life positively, embracing its challenges and inner reflections, is to cultivate gratitude for what we possess. It involves slowing life down to a pace where it can be truly savored, not merely tasted. This, I believe, is the ultimate remedy for the problems we currently encounter and those that may arise in the future
True
you have figured out a big secret to being happy
He's talking about overstimulation, not depression. He gets overexcited, which is common for people on the autism spectrum (on which he says he is), for instance. Imagine living in a crowded IKEA or something like that. That's what it feels like.
I agree, especially during nowadays where everything is too fast
Thank you for your words. I have a new way to think about things. Thank you fellow human.
Deep down we are all same doesn’t matter if you are billionaire or broke
For many that is true, not for all..
To stand above electric kangaroos on a road trip to Neo Sparta would be a great adventure.
But the Emersonian Over Soul is present even among the mollycoddles and the hornswogglers. ❤
Once you become God realized you see everyone and everything as the same. It’s the most beautiful and horrifying thing a human being can awaken to
@@docKAM there is no god we are not special in this universe
@@saurinpatel6606how do you know?
This was sad, watching Elon's face. Hang in there, man.
Yeah, the fact he had to think about whether or not he harbors resentment.. Problem is one cannot logically think about resentment, because it's an emotion and buried underneath the neo-cortex.
@@jake.presents I saw it as him coping with his pain by being all 'rational' about it, so he doesn't have to acknowledge or feel it. I think it's a common way to deal with really bad pain and trauma. But I can't look into his head of course.
@@jake.presentshow do you know if you feel resentment without thinking about it? Not arguing I am genuinely curious
@@VinylMemoirsIDK if that's what he was saying, but IMO Elon doesn't/cannot even understand resentment because he doesn't have the emotional capacity. He thinks rationally at a genius level, but has mental illnesses that severely limit his empathy and his emotions are incredibly unstable. So it's entirely possible that he has never actually experienced or understood the true concept of resentment, since that means you have to put yourself in the shoes of the other person and empathize with them.
Smile for me❤
I like Elons ability to be thoughtful and honest publicly. Jordan Peterson is like that as well. Very few are.
And meanwhile 50% of the population make up lies about him and hate him because he doesn’t perfectly toe the line.
I like his humble origins and that he has like a dozen kids and gives them silly names. It's whimsical.
i wouldn’t say peterson is 100% honest tbh
true
I kind of felt sorry for him. He looked very tired/worn out. I hope at some point he will slow down and enjoy what he has accomplished.
i dont, we need this dude to keep working
There is no such thing as a quiet mind. Not even in silence. I absolutely love him not only is he a futurist he is a realist 💯.... love him ...
Being lonely while working on something Epic is far better than being with people without goals.
One of the best comments ive ever read, seriously
I mean is it really though? Anyone can go off and just work on something "epic" by their self at this very moment but not everyone can have friends or a spouse/lover. True loneliness is an unbearable torture that I wouldn't wish on anyone because it doesn't matter what you do, you won't give a shit about accomplishing your epic goals if you don't have anyone to share it with. Your only real solace is to tell yourself that "If no one sees you, God still sees you" and just soldier on. It makes you feel like you want to die and get it over with.
Pretty selfish and narcissistic comment really. You should strive to uplift others, not look down upon them. If your so good, share some with those that aren’t and make the world a better place.
@@antpooThank you
There's only one goal for all of us so it doesn't really matter if we have goals or not. But I get your point, (normal) people bore me to death.
What an incredible and great hearted interview. Finally, hope for humanity! Thanks guys
Lol ikr
even with people around, there is a certain amount of loneliness being a genius. you cant connect to people in an intellectually stimulating way
your mind gets bored and wanders even while in the presence of those people. you aren't really "present"
forgiving is easy, forgetting is hard
Hey there. Jesus Christ can be your true friend. He is your Creator after all!
“We’re born alone, we live alone, we die alone. Only through our love and friendship can we create the illusion for a moment that we’re not alone.”
― Orson Welles
I don't totally agree with that statement,at least the first part of it.W hen were born we have our mother who will probably love us more than anybody on our long journey thru life,for the majority of us anyway.We will certainly live alone and die alone though.
As long as One doesn’t not feel lonely even when is alone It’s alright
Elon is still a kid at heart who needs tender loving all the time
"When you're alone you're together with the best friend you'll ever have."
Self-pity in adults is tragically comic. Thank you both.
TRUE!
which minute does he say this? cant find it.
@@yoboi811 This is a quote from a certain Daniel Whiteside.
Should help people who tend to self-pity :)
It's very impressing how open and true Elon is, and how excelent he adapts to the vibes of his interviewer. Wow.
I love the Silence in this dialog.
im thankful we have elon working for humanity and i got to live during his time
Do you have tiktok?
Very much so.
Look up Within Heaven's Gates by Rebecca Springer 😇
Imagine being dependent on one man to fix humanity
Me too!
I've never felt lonely in my whole life, but most of my life I have been alone... I like it!
makes me feel selfish and somewhat inhuman personally
@@blengi Selfish means... lacking consideration for other people; concerned chiefly with one's own personal profit or pleasure. So I think you used the wrong word.
@@pinchopaxtonsgreatestminds9591I said "feel". I'm pretty unselfish I think objectively, but it feels pretty selfish perceiving the best way to live my life is by avoiding friends and family who make an effort to be personable but me not so much, because when I do it feels pretty insincere. Ultimately all I'm left with is living my life for myself unconnected to social reality, which I feel is pretty self centered and fact that ignoring people makes me feel some how fulfilled, makes it almost seem inhuman on some level...
@@blengi Oh I see, you have friends, and family. I don't bother to have friends, or girlfriends, and my parents died. 2 times I went to my daughter's house. I think we both share the same understanding that we don't need to really visit each other much. I went to boarding school where I hid myself away after 4 o clock. So mainly for 50 years I have been on my own.
@@pinchopaxtonsgreatestminds9591 My comment wasn't to cast aspersions, everyone has there own context. I'm just conflicted by my non desire to have anything to do with people and it grates a bit, Ironically I think people are great, just not great enough to persuade me to be sociable in most any sense. Ultimately the reality is that I don't care enough emotionally on some level and that dearth of emotional obligation is surely big part of why being alone is so blissful. This seems pathological and irreconcilable to me but in the end I can't complain I think on net I've managed it ok. Similarly you seem to have come to terms with the pros and cons. 🙂
Thanks, Lex, for giving us a glimpse of your interactions with your friend...
You know nothing of glimpses
@@vikroy3777🤨
As someone who is also is the autism spectrum (Aspergers), I kind of know what Elon means when he said that his mind is a storm.
I love that Elon is so connected to his kids. The time and energy you give to them is so precious. Knowing they're loved helps them to grow and learn. Sharing their wonder as they discover and make sense of new things is beautiful. I realised this when trying to walk my reluctant son to school. His fascination with dew covered cobwebs, and the lives of spiders on a misty morning, made us late. The answer was to home educate so we could investigate the world around us, which was far more ineresting and exciting than school for many reasons.
School is overrated and mold children in bullying or unhelpful habits. Home schooling is much better.
He has 11 kids
@@PRIMEHDZSeriously dude. People have no idea if Elon is connected to his kids or not. He’s got 11, a definite conflict of interest.
not all of them he aint
His kids hate him apparently lol
You touched a nerve with that question. He looked off into the distance a lot with that one. "I mean overall ok" is generally not a convincing answer. He is being very vulnerable and honest with his eyes.
Loneliness is one thing. Loneliness and Hopelessness is far worse. That's the life of a care giver. Thank you Elon for your personal sacrifice. You Are The MAN!
Like a CNA? My gf is a CNA and is miserable
why @@Ausnapify
@@anms2023 bc it's a thankless job
Hey what did you mean by “that’s the life of a care giver”? I’m just curious because I’m considering going into that field :)
Look up Within Heaven's Gates by Rebecca Springer 😇
Good ending and good story especially about kids' fresh eyes - following with a thought, or no thought - a quiet mind for what may come. Thank you.
I Stand By Myself
I stand by myself. Loneliness is like a shadow and when I stand by my shadow and my loneliness, I have myself.
At 63 yo. I've realized that spending time alone is the cure for loneliness. I personally live alone and decided 4 years ago to spend 90 % of my time being and doing things alone. It's been hard but over time i realized the loneliness lifting. Today I feel freer than at any time in my life.
I love what you said
@@coppersulphate002 Thank you! 🙏
The new world order loves this
Exactly, you can be surrounded by family and friends, but still feel alone, i think that’s even worse
when you thanked elon for "seeing something" in you and he thanked you back... truly mutual respect between you two humans! that was heart warming ...genuine humans talking to each other about the deep stuff. fantastic! thanks for sharing that with us!
Thanks for your work Lex. Simple kindness is so important nowadays❤
"Money is a mean not an end". This sentence is one of the last memories of my best friend from NY who passed out in 2021. Memento mori.
Lex, you are simultaneously laser sharp and possess infinite compassion. Seldom do these two exist together. Bless you and continue shining your light onto humanity. Thank you also for your humility - a rare commodity these days…
Be alone and be happy. this is the equation in a time filled with treachery, betrayal, and hypocrisy. loneliness is a blessing, no matter hwo harch it is
This inspired me today to think about what I can do to make the future better. Purpose is what I need more of, not only more pleasure and happiness.
You can see his fragileness, self-reflection and pain shining thru in answering those questions.
That had the feel of a counselling session. Great interview.
If even the richest person in the world doesn't answer the question "are you happy" with a straight YES, I guess it's the ultimate proof that money doesn't make you happy
I had a hard childhood way above average hard I think I forgive them, but when I think of them, I think of what they did to me and now I realize I learned compassion and meekness from all I went through all that is a part of who I am
All we are the same as a human we experience the loneliness sometimes or to be alone, i think is worst...❤
Feeling lonely and being alone are very different things, I prefer my solitude immensely.
You did good with this guy Lex!
What a genuinely thoughtful man Elon is..He realy is a self made man.In spite of life's ups and downs ❤❤
I feel I might understand this feeling of loneliness
We got this
Just never change the value of world peace being so worth all the distrustful moments to reach peace
Elon should write a book to process & harness his insights & ideas & share them with the world
Possibly could help him be better understood & clarify his goals & intent in what he’s doing with his projects
I think writing is good for overactive minds in a healthy way
Also meditation can be helpful
Just taking time to pause & reflect & also on the effects what one is doing has on others rather than caught in the whirlwind of fame celebrity & trying to save the world
Finding balance is key to a healthy mind & body
All the best , may the force be with you!
I sleep alone also. Some nights it’s lonely some nights it’s freedom. Every night is my choice
"holding on to grudges does not affect the future in a good way"
I truly believe he has immense humility, while knowing his immense intelligence, giftedness, and capacity. He knows he has limitations. It's really refreshing for someone who has accomplished so much.
“One of the things with kids is that you see the world anew through their eyes” loved it
What an amazing interview.
0:36 same
You can forgive (you're a better man than I'll ever be if you actually do) but you must never forget what happened. That experience already changed you the moment it happened, it can never be erased, but you decide who it eventually changes you into. Use the pain to propel you forward in life.
BIG hugs to Elon! We fervently give thanks for him...a very smart and special man who loves freedom and truth.
I only feel lonely after a break up. During that time you’re acclimatized to a lot of human touch and contact then you’re forced to go cold turkey. That’s when you get the loneliness withdrawals. After a while you acclimate to less interaction and contact. It’s just as happy as with a person.
Relationships can truly be like a drug and give you withdrawals.
This is spot on
feeling tired of it all
True. Addiction & withdrawal.
Do you see his eyes on 1:50? What technology is that
Im at that stage of given up, i would rather be alone and miserable than around people who make me feel anxious and worthless
can we just acknowledge the fact that Lex is now WAY ahead of Rogan in the podcast game? damn he is good!
It's not loneliness, it's solitude. And it's glorious! ❤
as i age, hits me, that 'time goes by so fast with age' because i'm so close to the end' , may not be so...perhaps, the older i 'get' to others, comes across to them like 'nothing is going on with me'...perhaps, as i age, on one hand even the 'new gets old')...not really, but, all seems a 'variation on a theme'...yet, perhaps, that theme is 'time is shooting by so fast' 'because' each milli moment is newer than when i was 3 years old ... the older i get the more i'm always playing around with myself, others and in 'mind/imagination'...and the appreciated, natural, quiet INTENSITY 'speeds', yet, makes all 'stand still' so to speak...so hard to put in words...the more now'y' things get the more 'time flies'...what?...thanks
Smart move to split your clip which is easier for the audience but also an idea what is the latest trend of the topic. Well done
I get it, my boyfriend, he’s not where Elon is, but I can see him getting there, and he experiences these deep complex thoughts. He says it’s frustrating not being able to shut your brain up, because it’s constantly going, how to improve, how to make things better, he has to purposely avoid certain things so he can stay focused. And sometimes, he has to hold back so much because he knows that he will be looked at in strange ways or people will just not even be able to comprehend what he is talking about. Very very intelligent engineer. I hope Elon can find someone who brings him some peace of mind. I’m glad his kids help keep him stable. Poor guy.
He is right when it comes to children. For them everything is new and fresh. A world full of wonder. I envy children for that. I would give something to experience the world like a child again. Its the most wonderfull thing.
Psychedelics
I agree. Interacting with children is wonderful, challenging sometimes but in general very rewarding & meaningful.
as an adult, we achieve that childlike wonder by getting out of our comfort zone-minus the fear of failure. find your courage mate!!
@@arresthillary9502soooo true people don't seem to realise this
Humans as a species require company I feel. People may have someone around them but they feel alone. If you can find someone to connect to, truly connect to, cherish them. Loneliness is very tough.
I feel the people who constantly need to be surrounded by people are weak. I feel when you’re comfortable by yourself you’re strong .
Elon feels a lot like my friends. People who know him must feel blessed because they are and I hope he feels blessed because he is. He is a very good man AND the man of our times.
May God protect him and his family.
at times I personally believe we all feel alone, life’s like a wave with ups and downs, in my opinion.. peace

Never seen anyone match Lex's energy so well
Ahhh, to be human, especially right now, is to be heartbroken, receptive on so so many levels, and yet we are that contribution to the greatest of miracles known, existing within an experience that is created by our choices. My gratitude for being alive alongside ppl like Elon and Lex and many others, it is humbling and something to be treasured amongst the greatest of things, I feel that ❤ man!
Lex is very, very good! Excellent work!
📍2:55
Yes i feel lonely too
There is always a battle / struggle going on with high achievers. Elon is the epitome of this ….Being driven to accomplish what you are capable of and time spent with your family, children, friends. The key to happiness is a balance in these things that is different for each human. Also with Elon’s superior intellectual capacity ..finding his balance with a coach, most importantly someone he respects immensely to help with the human struggle of “the ego”, “the Id” and Super Ego may keep his life more centered.
A great man surrounded by humans. I know that feeling. Thats why I am most of the time exchanging with "dead people", it feels much better for me, although there has to be a balance..Hard to establish it.
People: I want to be Elon
Elon: You don't want to be me
Brutal honesty. Respect!
For those people who do not get it, Elon is the once in a lifetime genius that comes around and changes the world. His impact with rockets is one of a kind. His other projects are equal to other entrepreneurs efforts. This man wants to help humanity forward in the right way.
Imagine the weight he carries.
Delusional AF lol
He sure is a P. T. Barnum
lol@@50PullUps
Without Elon’s contributions, electric cars would also be no where near where they are now
I was once with a woman for companionship she always complained and whined I didn't buy her the things she wanted. This made me want to get away from her fast. Do not see loneliness as a sad prospect to have but rather a time for yourself to get away and not be bothered by others like a time out. Then comeback whenever you want to engage with others.
Get a job. Nothing in life is free
Thank you for sharing this interview. ♥️🙌🙏
I can’t relate because I love being alone, I never feel lonely and some of my best memories are of me being just alone or with my dog
Thanks for lighting up a great man with great vision for our great 5D future ❤🎉😊
Great show Lex...Such great questions and thoughtful answers
Thank you for sharing this.
3:10 dang
There is a Chinese saying, “It is unbearably bitter cold up, up high.” 高處不勝寒. Being a man of high wisdom, he could foresee too much in his mind, whirling around like a relentless storm. Literally, NO ONE would be able to understand this old, old soul. LONELINESS is the price that he has to bear with in his whole life, AND in his future lives. A “blessed” soul.
Great great stuff Lex. There is 1 and only 1 Elon. An amazing mind and an amazing man.
One of the reasons Lex is such a great interviewer is he allows space for his guests to thoughtfully answer. Then is succinct in his follow ups. That is a real discipline and skill. I'm a ghostwriter and have interviewed hundreds of people - mostly authors. And I am nowhere close to as good as Lex is at this. I think I could get better material from my subjects if I developed that muscle more. Hats off to you Lex.
Wait did you say right at the start of the video?
These are 2 of the most intelligent, amazing, and fkd up minds you will find in the same room together. They both have way too much going on in their brains that obviously causes them sadness all the time in their personal life. I think they are good examples of how money doesn't automatically create happiness because I'm not convinced that either of them are truly happy in life, particularly Lex.
Lex is a long term lingering suicide risk. His podcast is his attempt to keep himself alive at all costs. The void is too great within him, one can see it.
@@nayaknareshnot sure about that. He often mentions how the simple things in life remind him of how great being alive is
@@nayaknaresh I agree 100%, but not rooting for it.
@@nayaknareshIf that's true, it's horribly sad. Get support & proper help.
@@nayaknareshWait really? I never knew Lex was like that... Can you elaborate more please
I don't get lonely alone.
I feel sorry about suffering from lonleiness we have everything and we feel we have nothing but that comes from expecting someone perfect but no one is perfect .

So true.
