Hey, I won!
Boating will begin when passenger fisher is done celebrating.
19 plus Ontario only. Please play responsibly.
Concerned by your gambling or that if someone close, you call 1866-3-3-1-2-60 or visit comixonterio.ca.
We're talking robot.
Robot is here.
Everyone's getting a robot.
Here's the dirty little secret.
What?
Dirty boy.
They are mostly remote operated.
The robot can barely do any of these things.
It's not like they have people standing by like, oh, there's something the robot can't do.
You have to schedule it.
Yeah, I can't go get you that glass of water or whatever.
Can I schedule something to have the robot get that glass of water?
I'll wait.
They really gloss.
over the fact that it can do these things
that you don't, you very much do not
want it to do. Hey, could it shoot
a gun at me? Yeah, it can.
Yeah, it can, but lots of things in your house
can shoot a gun at you. No, burnt.
Listen, my Rumba could shoot
the gun if you wanted to do.
I'm gonna, I can't wait to get one, leave guns
just all across the studio. Yeah.
Neo, clean up while we're gone.
Clean up the guns. And remember,
get rid of that paper.
It better be gone or it's your ass.
Or we're going to watch the Indian-Pakistan match again.
We're going to watch the 1978 cricket finals again.
Yeah.
We're Pakistan won.
Something to think about.
I'm looking at town with Benin'i on.
Tell me what's going on.
Tell me what's going on.
So listen to a lot to Benin me.
Tell me what's going on.
Tell me what's going on.
Tell me what's going on.
Well, let's...
Doug doesn't like you flapping.
Oh, but he likes you smack him in the chin over.
I don't just go like that and he goes, hop, ha, ha, ha, ha.
We're going to, I'm going to call DPS, Dark Protective Services.
I know he likes it because then when I stop, he goes,
he tries to get up on me.
Hey, everybody, welcome back to another episode.
this week we're talking about robot we're talking robot robot robot is here
everyone's getting a robot no not not uh not kiona reeves i actually rewatched the matrix
it's so good the first one yeah the other two suck the other three whatever three yeah oh
brother i know the other yeah the other two suck my iced coffee is a disappointment that i have this
morning. It just tastes
it doesn't taste like it. It just
tastes watered down. You've got a little
iced coffee collection over there now. Yeah, I have two.
I have two right here. So
we're talking about Neo. We're talking
about, because there's a lot of interesting stuff
about it. Are we bullish?
We're going to find out. Find out.
We're going to talk about the things that it does, the things that it can't
do. Our take on it.
Whether we hate it or like it,
what things we would do with the robot.
If that weird Scandinavian man's
to let that thing do it and also uh what race we would choose because they give you you get to
choose a race i'm going gray it's like with the emojis you know you're going black you stay yellow
going black you know why stains won't show up as much because i'm going to be spilling sauce
that's what you tell people when they come over it's the stains
stain what uh let's see what else do we have on the docket we're going to
If we've got time, I think we will.
We're going to talk about the stupid bullshit that Elon Musk said on Joe Rogan.
And it's really nice because nobody gives a flying fuck.
I think people are over it.
We'll see.
And that, actually, that is a little bit of foreshadowing what I just did there.
Flying fuck.
I didn't even realize it.
And just some general AI updates.
But before we get started, check out Emile's new show.
The link is in the description.
You're going to want to check that up.
Last chance to see.
Also, the credit card list.com, our credit card site is updated.
They no longer have the built card on there.
But did you miss it?
Did you miss it?
That's okay.
You can still get it on your own.
Because I got the built card.
You might as well get yourself the American Express gold card because the sign-up bonus
is 100,000 points currently.
And who knows how long that will last?
Probably not very long.
And then you got the Chase Sapphire Reserve.
Also a very high bonus of 125,000 points right now.
But mill around on the site.
Get yourself familiar.
Get yourself a credit card.
Because he needs that shit.
Okay.
Dick Cheney's died.
Oh, we almost forgot.
Rest in Piss, Dick Cheney.
Yeah.
Feels so bad for his wife, pussy Cheney.
It's like some kind of prophecy has been fulfilled.
If Zoran Mandani wins the election today on the day that Dick Cheney beefs it.
I didn't say how he died?
I think just...
N pneumonia?
It's just like old guy, you know.
I wanted a bowling ball.
a fall on his head.
That would have been cool.
Oh, no, bowling ball, my only weakness.
Dick, if you can hear this, send us a message,
tell us what hell's like.
We'd love to know.
Let's see, death.
You absolute freak.
I will say the nice thing is I have not seen,
I'm sure it's out there, but I have not seen a ton of like the,
what a great man this was.
Well, yeah, because all the new,
all the Trump conservatives hate him
because they call him a neocon.
I do think he endorsed con.
And then if lefties make fun of him, it's like that meme with the superhero sweating
and doesn't know which button to press.
It's like Trump hates Dick Cheney but also Libs making fun of a dead Republican.
Wait, what?
Like Trump supporting conservatives hate Dick Cheney.
Okay.
Because they think of him as like a neocon and like part of the deep state, right?
Okay.
So one of the buttons is like fuck.
Dick Cheney, but also the other button is, um...
Wait, but who's the guy pressing the button?
Just conservatives.
Modern day conservatives.
Oh, oh, sure, sure.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because it's like, oh, shit, do we, are we going to mourn him or are we pissed that...
Got it.
No, I understand the meme.
I just was quite a little bit confused on you, but I'm glad we got there.
I wonder where that's from.
I wonder where that comes from.
It is a great...
Man, I'd be nervous about what button to press fire that guy.
Look, both of them were blank in that one.
which button does what
God's sake
Did you vote for
Prop 50?
Yeah, mailed my shit in
Yeah
Who knows if it got there
He died
They email you and tell you
Oh
Oh okay
He had been experiencing
Complications
Related to
Pneum
Pneum
He's trying to say pneumonia
Oh that's
Oh got it got it
Nomania and vascular disease
Vascular disease
Gross
The English language
When you
see something new?
Yeah, you start
when you're young
and you start finding out
that letters do
all kinds of fucked up things.
Yeah, all 26 of them
sometimes it feels like
they're ganging up on me.
P.N. just makes
eh, okay, if you say so.
P.S. just makes, uh.
Sure.
All right, let's let's get a,
let's kick off this stupid robot.
That's probably more of a holdover
from the Greek language, honestly.
So,
here we go.
Here's the ad from Burt Bornich.
This guy's name, this motherfucker's name is Burt.
We love Berench.
Hi, my name is Berench.
My name is Berench.
And today, we're launching Neal.
Wait, we're going to get destroyed on this.
Oh, yeah.
We can't.
We definitely can't play that audio.
why is he playing
why are he playing this song?
How did he get the rights to this?
But also just how does this have to do with the fucking...
Maybe he did this so people could not make fun of him on YouTube.
Maybe.
All right, let's cut out of it.
It looks like so for the audio listener...
I was kidding me.
For the audio listener, this company is actually releasing...
It looks like a...
say because they're saying you could buy these for either $20,000 or $500 per month.
No, no, it is $20,000 and...
Are you sure?
I believe so, because I watched the long form interview with him.
So did I.
The Wall Street Journal one?
Yeah.
We can go to the website, but they're, they're, uh, but these are all pre-orders.
They're saying coming in 2026, uh, so I mean, a lot of people are talking about it as if it's,
these are here, you know, you can get a, um, um,
Neo-Robot in your house
But yeah, I guess they're trying to be first to market
On these humanoid robots
And probably much to the chagrin of
Elon Musk and his
Yeah, I hadn't even heard of 1X
But they've already got them...
Let's cook that first one.
They're obviously doing stylized cuts.
You know that that chocolate motherfucker
Who makes all sorts of crazy chocolate stuff?
So look, it says
If you want to buy it, you pick one.
Either $499 per month subscription
or you click the early access $20,000 ownership.
So I wonder if you...
And you just have to put down a $200 fully refundable deposit.
Oh, wow. That's not bad.
It looks like a Google Home speaker.
Yes.
Turned into a giant robot.
That's exactly what it looks.
It looks so non-sexual.
There's nothing sexual about it.
Oh, what are those?
You see those fucking shoes?
Truly, what are those ass shoes?
I mean, this guy burnt really, what is that?
The place where it plugs in?
What is this?
Cork?
Yeah, well, I do believe the thing's going to have to be constantly charging itself.
Yeah, when I'm done with it, it's definitely going to have to restart.
I'd be slapping that thing around.
Actually, I couldn't do it.
I can't, I remember being mean to smarter child, the chat bot on A.O.
I am.
And I would feel so bad.
I just start apologizing and big.
I'm so sorry.
Wow, I haven't thought about Smarter Child in so long.
And that was pretty...
Maybe the first generative AI...
Oh, yeah, and it was so smart.
It was very good.
Wow.
I know.
With that, that makes me the open AI is cooked.
We had this tech in like 98.
Smarter Child,
uh,
smarter child was a popular AI chatbot on instant messaging platforms like AOL.
How have I,
how has no one made this connection?
connection.
I did a while ago. I was like,
huh, it's like smarter
shots. I just didn't say anything.
So it was a, for those
who don't know, it was a chat bot that you could tell.
By the way, AOL Instant Messenger, imagine
before you had the iPhone.
We can't be this old that people don't know what AIA.
There's people who probably don't.
It shut down like eight years ago,
after nobody had been using it for ages.
It was the best. You would get home and you would log on
and you'd be doing stuff on your computer,
and meanwhile, you'd be chatting with people.
Yeah.
They all do it on Discord now.
You basically imagine Discord,
but way, way, way smaller
and only individual chats.
So you saw your friends list,
and you saw who was online and who was offline,
who had their away message on if they were away,
and your away message is where you'd put lyrics to songs
that essentially was an early form of sub-tweeting.
Yes.
You would be like, you know.
Or you'd leave for the house.
This was when it was a place
Yeah
This was an internet was a place
Yeah, the internet was a place
You put in a way message
Because you would be gone
Yeah
All right we're getting off track here
It's so wild
Smarter child
I would get so excited
When my crush would log on
And it'd be like
Oh my God
Because she would never go on
And you'd hear that door open
And then sometimes
It would immediately close
And you're like
What'd she do?
And all the hot girls
Would have one four three
In their username
No
Yeah
Was that an area code?
No one four three
I think
it means like, I love you, because one, I, four is L-O-V-E, three.
How is four, oh, four, oh, got it, got it.
I did not catch on to that.
Everybody had, uh, everybody had like X-O, X-O, X-O, lower-case X, capital X, lower-case
X, if you were hardcore.
Well, smarter child, if you're listening.
Smarter child.
But yeah, I would abuse that thing.
Anyway.
I would not.
Hey, everybody, this episode of The Ben and Emile show is brought to you by booking.com.
You know, I got to say, if you're one of those people out there who's trying to grow a vacation rental business, booking.com is the place to be.
It is one of the most downloaded travel apps in the world, and it's for a good reason.
Since 2010, they've helped over 1.8 billion, sheesh, vacation rental guests find places to stay.
That's billion with a B. 1.8 billion vacation.
rental guests. Jeez, Louise. But here's the thing. Most vacation rental hosts don't even realize
they can list their properties on booking.com. And if you're not on the platform, your rental
is basically invisible to millions of booking.com travelers worldwide. After all, they can't book
what they can't see, right? But once you start listing on booking.com, your property gets seen by a
massive global audience of unique travelers. That means more visibility, more bookings, and more
opportunity to accelerate the growth of your rental business. And it couldn't be easier. You can register
your property in as little as 15 minutes and nearly half of hosts get their first booking
within a week. Wow. So if your vacation rental isn't listed on booking.com, it could be
invisible to millions of travelers searching the platform. Don't miss out on consistent bookings
and global reach. Head over to booking.com and start your listing today. Get seen. Get booked on
booking. Let's play this clip of him with this. Yeah, they're obviously trying to do activations,
make it look like it's going to be cool. They make it look like, oh, look, it's keeping a little chef outfit.
Fucker, a little stupid fucker.
Chip.
Yeah, right.
They're cooking some, of course, they're cooking some chocolate thing that's going to look real, but it's not.
Also, important to note, insane amount of cuts in this thing.
Have you ever watched one of these guys' videos where he makes chocolate things?
No.
They're unbelievable.
I mean, this guy makes...
But we never see the robot do more than one motion.
Yeah.
Which will make sense.
Pretty good, pretty nice activation there, I must say.
Look at that.
God, just when you think he's done.
This guy probably got banked up for this.
Oh, yeah.
Probably got...
Probably at least $250,000, I would guess.
Oh, good for him.
Look at that.
Wow.
Inedible, disgusting.
chocolate shit, covered in like quasi-edible paint.
But now, uh, Jordan from the Wall Street Journal, um, did a long interview with this guy.
Uh-huh.
And it becomes apparent that maybe things aren't as they, as they seem. Um, she did an interview
with burnt.
Burnt.
Uh, and it's a 30-minute interview and then she does another little 10-minute thing where
she's, uh, she's actually using the robot.
Oh, I didn't see that.
But the
The crux of the interview is
Obviously Bert is very stoked about this
And thanks we're gonna
You know
He kind of sold me on it
He sold you on it.
A little bit, yeah
He didn't sell me on it because
Here's the dirty little secret
What?
Dirty boy
Much like when
Elon rolled out the optimist robots
That everyone was like
Wow
He did it
They are
Mostly remote
operated. The robot can barely do any of these things. Yeah, they've got something called
expert mode where, uh, so if, well, no, not exactly. He's so, he says that the, the robot will
be mostly operating on its own, but much, he compared it to Waymo's. He said if it's like a
waymo, it's autonomous, but then if it needs help, a someone who works for the company will step in.
Right. But if you watch her.
Every time she tries to do something
It needs a remote operated
person
Because it can barely do it
It can't
She said every
Everything she asked it to do
Needed a person to step in
So then burnt
A.k.a. Mr. Crisp
Would say
What's his middle name?
Fucking Crisp
Or Tua in his last name was Crisp
It's Scandinavian
But
Bernt Tua
Hi, my name is
Burnt Tuakrisp
He said that
He admits that they're not there
At all
And that 2026 though
He believes he believes
He'll be a transformative year
And that
They are relying on their customers
To provide the data
The training data that these things need
And it seems a bit
rushed for sure. It's almost like
he's thinking, I wonder if they're doing a first
to market kind of move in hopes
that someone who may be
further along but is waiting to actually
debut. I honestly don't know.
I can't quite figure it out. It's a very strange thing.
With a $20,000 price tag, there's obviously
very few people who are actually going to
purchase this thing and put it
in their homes. Yeah.
It's also different than
you know, that's
kind of what Elon Musk is doing with full self-drive.
But that at least
makes a little bit of
sense. You have tons
of cars on these roads
basically mapping things for
their AI systems
and learning all these things.
Houses are completely different
than roads. Oh yeah.
Every house is going to be different.
It's
I mean I'm just thinking about my friend's house. I was just in
they have this like insane
weird spiral staircase
that goes up to their loft. I'm like
I'd love to see a NEO navigate this.
Yeah, yeah, they look like drunk toddlers.
Yeah, and there's just so many,
so many variables in each and every house.
So between the very few people I can imagine
actually purchasing these things
and the difference of all these houses
and all these different, not only the houses,
think about all the different,
all the different appliances,
different washer and dryers people have
in their house. It's got to learn all these things.
Yeah. Have you heard of these arm
farms in India? Yes.
The L.A. Times just put out a big
story about them. Uh, which
I'm like... Get me
on one of those. I'll show them how to do all sorts of stuff.
No, it honestly sounds like a bitch
the way they, uh, if you
don't know, basically,
which is probably a way more efficient way
to go about this, instead of
trying to get people to buy
these 20,000 robots and
or $20,000 robots and putting them in your house and having it do all kinds of various
tasks to learn, people are going where there's cheap labor like India and paying people to
do simple tasks over and over and over and over. And so the robot can watch and go.
Yes. It's basically, here, this is actually from the Los Angeles Times article.
That's how you fold it. In an industrial town in southern India,
that Naveen Kumar, 28, stands at his desk and starts his job for the day,
folding hand towels hundreds of times, as precisely as possible.
He doesn't work at a hotel, he works for a startup that creates physical data
used to train AI.
He mounts a GoPro camera to his forehead and follows a regimented list of hand movements
to capture exact point-of-view footage of how a human folds.
That day, he had to pick up each towel from a basket on the right side of his desk,
using only his right hand, shake the towel straight using both hands,
then fold it neatly three times.
Then he had to put each fold the towel
in the left corner of the desk.
It takes more than a minute or he misses,
if it takes it more than a minute
or he misses any steps,
he has to start over.
So it's like if they even...
What's that called?
The Sisyphus factory?
Seriously.
Hey, we work at the Boulder pushing factory.
But yeah, so I mean,
I'm very curious if these things
are just going to tank.
They obviously still need tons of...
Yeah.
uh let's let's go to that wall street journal interview with him and let's toggle it to 55 seconds oh also the other thing what with this teleoperating thing it's not like they have people standing by like oh there's something the robot can't do you have to schedule it so if it's like oh if it's like yeah i can't go get you that glass of water or whatever yeah you have to be like um hi can i schedule can i schedule something to have the robot get that glass of water oh wait
wait.
So it's, there's a lot of catches here.
It almost seems like all you have to do is just ask and then, and then some, because that's
a difference.
In a, in a waymo, that operator's taking over immediately, right?
They're in the car.
They're actually not.
They, they give, I guess they give the car a suggestion.
They're like, hey, back up, stupid.
And the car goes, okay, boss, you got it.
Backs up.
Oh, they're not even taking control.
That's what I've read.
that they're not actually taking control.
They're just telling it like, hey, something is obstructing that you can't see.
You need to back up and reassess.
And then it does it.
Because I saw a video of a couple stuck in San Francisco in front of a trolley.
And it was in the thing said, there's a traffic obstruction ahead.
And it's like, yeah, no shit.
You are the obstructor.
And so they call and support immediately picks up.
And they even ask, they're like, are you doing this right now?
and she said, no, I'm just telling it
that there's something in front of it
and it should back up and then, yeah.
Yeah, I mean, so this is, it's just crazy.
It's another in a long line of
these tech companies going to market,
announcing something, doing a flash, you know, a flashy.
I wonder if they, I wonder how heavy this thing is.
And then ultimately being like,
isn't that cool and people being like yeah can i have it and they're like no we actually can't
do it but when you do get it it's not going to work it's just it's just such a stark difference to
when we were growing up with that massive silicon valley boom where you know people were like hey
we've fucking made this thing and you can you can have it yeah it's gonna it's gonna change every
a rumba i remember doubting a rumba for the same reason you just described every room is different
but it like maps it out and it learns and it figures it out.
So I imagine a similar thing would happen with this though,
where it like learns like,
okay, there's a fucking couch there or some shit.
Plus it's got eyes.
Oh, and he says you can like,
you can geo-fence these things.
You can give it like no-go zones and stuff.
I can't wait till people start reporting on like,
why is my new in the no-go zone?
Yeah.
I would make a no-go zone and then go into the no-go zone
and beg it and like try to fuck with it
and fry its brain.
be like, I know you're not allowed to come in here, but I am telling you as your master,
come here, come, pick up this water. Now, I need you to. I can't. I can't. It's a no-go zone.
I know that, but I'm superseding your previous rule and telling you to come here. And then if it
comes in, go, don't come into the no-go zone. Get out. I'm sorry. I thought, get out. And then just
You just spending a day doing that with your robot.
Really taking it to the break.
It would just be so.
I'm confused.
Hey, everybody.
We want to take a quick break to talk about looking good and feel good.
Feeling good.
I'm sure you've heard that common refrain.
But listen, most clothes these days that you put on the nice dress clothes?
yeah they might look good but you don't feel good
or you feel good but you don't look good
so why not both why not both
porcino los dos that's where mizan and main comes in
they make classic men's wear with performance fabrics
so it's effortless to look sharp and feel great
mizzened and main actually invented the performance fabric
dress shirt over 10 years ago and since then
they've perfected it with modern fabrics
mizzen and maine's t-shirts and pants look refined
yet they're stretchy, lightweight, moisture wicking, wrinkle-resistant, and completely machine-washable.
No ironing or dry cleaning.
Love that part.
When you put their clothes on, you'll feel the difference instantly.
Professional style that's actually comfortable, whether you're in the office, on the road, or even out on the golf course.
Oh, yeah.

because they're obviously not ready
but people actually
putting them in their house.
I mean, like you said,
it's just too...
Well, that's that.
People are obsessed with putting
listening devices
from big tech
their home. So I'm sure
a camera that some
teleoperated guy can see
is no big deal. But they blur out your
face, apparently, and
they, only
you have access to
the data. Yeah, I heard him talking about this.
Yeah, but who knows? I don't trust a guy named
Burnt. I don't trust any of these guys.
Every tech company is like, your dad is safe
with us, and then like one knock from the FBI, and they're
like, take it all. Yeah, take it all.
Just don't punish us.
Well, let's, let's play this
this intro clip that kind of sums it up.
And the final moment where you can actually buy one.
2026 is going to be an incredibly exciting year.
It's going to be the year where the first customers get this at home.
It's going to be surprisingly useful.
But it's not going to be perfect.
If you are one of the first users in 2026, it's going to be kind of bumpy.
And you're going to be part of this adventure that we're going on,
where we're really pushing the frontier to create this beautiful future
where we have an abundance of labor across society.
We want to bring people in as early as possible
and make sure that this change in society happens gradually
and it happens together with all of you that want to be part of this.
And if that's something that really appeals to you,
then I hope we get to know you in 2026.
Take me back to the beginning.
Dude, that is an incredibly optimistic view of how consumers...
Oh, okay.
We're going to start this thing and hopefully be part of it.
I mean, people absolutely freak out when things don't.
Every time there's a new iOS update,
And people are like, what's blow with this thing?
You think people are going to be okay with just watching your robot just trip all over himself,
constantly die, smash glasses because I can't figure out the grip, proper grip.
Yeah.
I found it interesting that because, you know, I'm, I'm mentally challenged, number one, but malleable.
And I was starting to be like, huh, that is interesting.
For example, they are lightweight.
I have it in my notes.
He said that they use powerful motors and tendons to operate like human biology.
And he says that he wants to make it so that robots fit into our existing lifestyle
and not the other way around where we are creating this whole new thing that we've all got to adjust to.
And he says that it's hoping, like he said, an age of like abundance.
and I'm like, eh, I don't know about that, but let's go to the nine minute mark.
I've got it roped off for some reason, just before it, that's fine.
Developed at least in our generation, and maybe for many generations, but it's still a tool.
What is Neo going to do in my life?
Yeah, so let me speak from just my own experience, because I've had a Neal in my house now for quite a while.
It's kind of exciting to see how much better it's gone.
It's in no way perfect yet, but there's this real power to seeing like things that like incrementally get better.
What Neo is doing in my house right now
is it's doing a lot tidying.
It's doing cleaning.
It's very good at vacuuming.
Actually, like, it beats my rhomba
because it actually can move the chairs out of the way.
It beats my rhomba, pause.
I'm like,
motherfucker.
I gotta say, I think he's lying.
It beats my rhomba.
This guy's obsessed with robots.
Because even in the activation video,
it's,
they say that those things are teleoperating.
Well, I guess he doesn't,
he hasn't said if it's teleoperative.
operated or not, but it's not doing
it's either not doing those things in his house
or it's not doing them
autonomously. There's no
way. Yeah. And if they were,
why not
film it and show it to us?
Yeah, true.
Why not? It's actually really good
at vacuuming. It's better than Maramba.
Because
we are going to show some footage
of what it actually looks like when it tries
to do things. Should we just
go to that? Let's see. You know,
Do you have the dishwasher clip is at 1630?
This is it right here.
Yeah, okay.
Here it is trying to figure out a fucking how to close the dishwasher.
Okay, just let me crouch down here and, okay, I'm going to, like, imagine being...
Imagine this happening in your house and you're just like, I don't, should I just go close it?
Jesus Christ.
Whoops, my finger slipped.
took four minutes and 56 seconds
so well that's not too bad
and he doesn't close it
yeah
yeah it's basically a drunk
you got a drunk guy
imagine would you hire a drunk guy
for 20 grand to do all your shit
for you and now let's watch
this guy real fast
this guy hired a different robot
this is the Chinese one I believe
I also have to say this guy is making content
and trying to make a joke
obviously I think Joanna is actually
trying to see what it's like. This guy's, this guy's trying to get into a funny situation.
But this guy is also, he does do, not scientific, but he's the one who did the testing, extensive
testing of the cyber truck and things like that. I think he tests things to their limits, and he's got it
trying to cook eggs here. Go ahead.
That's a wait. That's a wait. That's a wait. You're waiting here. Stop, go down. So if you can
cook me in a meal, I'm going to go on in here and play Fortnite, okay?
It is obviously very funny.
It slips all over the eggs.
It just spilled. Whistling Diesel, that's his name, that's his name.
All right, let's play the other clip of that, because it's kind of scary, honestly.
I think it's so funny and cute.
I wouldn't like if this was in my house.
Yeah, well, because he's got that.
feminine
maid
dress
this is scary to me
though
I would
I'd be really
upset
it doesn't like
its own
reflection
apparently
stop
what are you doing
that's my mirror
what are you doing
stop
stop
one of your unit
just ran into my mirror
and is causing damage
I'm a little
worried
that's not
going to work
oh my God
listen to how
heavy
those footsteps are on that thing.
He obviously did that on purpose.
Yeah, probably.
So I don't think that's like a good
journalistic
representation.
Yeah, you got $20,000 laying around?
I mean, we can save up for a few months
and buy one.
Well, the Neo is the one I want.
Why? Why? I want that little
guy that runs around. At least that can
run. The Neo can't do shit.
Well, I can't actually do
a lot of things. At one point, she asks it
Can it pick up dog poop?
She does ask if we can pick up dog poop.
But specifically she stupidly goes without a bag
and he's like, well, no, why would you do that?
Well, I think she was making a joke
because she asked about the washing of the hands thing.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
I think it was a callback to that.
Because it can wash its hands,
which is a feature that I wouldn't have thought of.
But she says,
can it turn the stove off on
and throw a bunch of paper on
top, which is a good question.
It's like, you want it to do this?
No, he says it can do it, but it won't.
It's like, okay, why?
Because you're Norwegian ass told it not to.
It's like, I feel like there should have been a deeper answer on that
of why it's not going to do that.
Why I should pay $20,000 to invite this thing into my house
that you're saying can start a fire.
Yeah, it's capable.
That's a good point because it's like, what's that law where is it, whatever can go wrong, we'll go wrong?
Murphy's Law?
Murphy's Law.
It's like Murphy's Law with these things and you've got to give it every possible in its programming.
You've got to tell it like, and don't do this and don't do this.
Right.
What if my child tells it, turn the stove off and throw paper on top?
Yeah.
I want, for lunch, I want you to cook.
me paper. Yeah. Okay.
What stops it?
Okay.
I'm just, he really didn't have a deep answer
about that. I mean, I wonder if it's worth finding
that moment, but he literally
at one point he just said, can a lot of products
in your home do something dangerous? Yes.
No, but they don't do it on their own.
Like, a lot of things cannot
do that. I can't think of one thing
in my house. Yeah, my rhomba isn't going to
fucking turn on the stove on, a stove on
and throw paper on it.
Look at it. Can you imagine that thing
like looking over you from
you're in bed and it's looking over you
I did not like the racial thing
you said to me the other day
why do you tell them it's because of stains
tell them the real reason
yeah
I don't
I don't know man
it's uh
have you ever seen the movie Frank and Robot
not a long time that movie
it was good
15 years ago
It was good. It's about a, it's about a robot and Frank.
It's an old thief. It's an old thief who has Alzheimer's, and his family assigns a robot to him, a helper robot.
And boy, that robot rocks. I love that thing.
87% of rotten tomatoes. You guys should check it out. Frank Lingella, Langella.

Let's trade like a pro, baby.
trade like a pro baby
there's i i'm it's
obviously we won't know for a very long time it's just
there's either two options here
one
either one x or one of these other companies
doing it with uh you know with the training
in india is going to crack the code
and they're going to figure out how i don't know with enough
with enough training data
they're going to be able to do it i mean you should
you should see the neo
try to fold a shirt.
It's like...
It's like...
It's like giving a toddler a job.
But...
And who knows?
If maybe if enough Indian guys
fold a shirt with a GoPro on their head
enough times,
they're going to figure it out.
Much like the rest of the AI industry,
they're going to have to figure out
AGI
It's going to be a long time
Until everything just works
That's what he said
Contrary to what some of these guys are saying
Which is like, it's going to be robots everywhere
Look at that stupid fucking cocky little thing
Get out of my fridge
So this is all remote operated
Where's the sound?
Just one little catch
There may be a human
behind the curtain, pulling the robot strings.
If I throw up, will the robot throw up?
A company representative may need to appear into your house.
What kind of question is that, lady?
They're just being cheeky.
I like her.
It's many people. This is crazy.
Dude, I would be so frustrated if this thing was in my house.
I'd be like, hurry up.
Hurry up.
I did all my chores.
Set it down.
I moved it from one burner to the other.
I like it trying to crack a walnut, though.
Stupid.
Listen to his, what he says about it cracking a walnut.
When in like pressure and like strength.
And some robots are because they're heavily geared.
But that means you're not sensitive, right?
And delicate.
Neo doesn't work like this at all.
It works more like us.
Which is bullshit.
Okay.
This thing should be able to crack a nut like that.
It should be T-1000.
I can crack a nut like that.
Yeah.
If you take another, if you take another one of those nuts
and you squeeze them together hard enough, you can crack them.
Yeah.
Why can this robot not crack the fucking thing?
Some frustrated guy.
Can you imagine how frustrating it is to have to do that with the headset?
Just like, fuck, come on.
Open the fridge.
Look at this.
You're operating a drunk weakling.
That's what it is.
Having to teleoperate a drunk.
Okay.
Yeah.
So for the audio listener, just the act of taking a fork from the sink and putting it over in the thing,
it's got to take like 17 little baby steps
I would rather
I'd be so stressed out with this thing in my house
now to be fair
to be fair
if you went Rumba mode
and just turn this guy on
when you left the house
you were like I'm gonna be at work all day
put everything away
I don't care if it takes them eight hours
and then put yourself back on the charging
on the charging dock
go for it
yeah that might be cool
but then you come home
and it's got a pile of paper on the stove
throwing away the paper you asked me to throw away
Burt said you weren't going to do that
What is that? God, they make it look so...
Oh, I guess she was doing things with it
And it just freaked out
And it had to be taken away
I love that graphic, brain
Brain
Apparently it does have a kill switch, he said
Oh, so it can kill, goes on kill mode
Yeah, how do I turn this thing on kill mode?
I'm perfect, I turn on the kill switch
I do believe he tries to fold the shirt
Everybody's saying, well, wait until, you know, AI, the next thing, the next thing is going to be putting AI in a body.
Well, there you have it.
I think the real thing is that, I think I said this after the optimist launch thing they did.
I think they're just going to, the best they'll do is invent digital slavery and they won't be able to actually have these things be autonomous.
but what they can do is pay for a lot of cheap labor
where you now have a robot in your house
and it doesn't feel so bad having a servant.
We invented a new kind of slavery.
The new slave will be in your house,
but you don't actually have to do anything to them
because they are 1,000 miles away,
operating via the...
I mean, this is very first.
funny, just the first
comment is, this video
is definitely a bit of a cold shower
after their promotional video. Neo couldn't do
a single task autonomously for
the interviewer, but they promise when
unit ship in 2026, it will be able to do
most tasks in the house autonomously
but also kind of shitty so you can
schedule to have the robot teleoperated
to do the task.
It's just like... It's a toy for rich people
and YouTubers to buy. And
I honestly cannot wait for
some of that footage to leak. I want to say,
want to see weird stuff happening in the rich people's homes from from the eyes of that
googly little robot i would do when i and they're totally trying to make it look like an
apple product they're aping apple at every turn with the design and stuff and even this website
look at this stupid look at this look at this fucking example it's an old man going is this
paprika and it goes no that's cayenne pepper this this would this is something that'll never happen
in a million years well they could do this if it was teleoperated because the guy would be able
to look through the camera and tell you yeah and he'd be racist to the guy the this is that an
indian guy in there i don't understand you yes sir my name is john smith bullshit
bullshit the amount of the amount of racism that's going to come from oh yeah people hearing
accents on these things.
Oh, Babu.
Well, I need to go on
Polymarket or Kalsi and place a bet
if these things actually ship in
in 2026. I bet they will. I bet they're going to
rush it out and then there's going to have some
hiccups, but nobody's going to care
because they're not publicly traded.
Or I'd also love to bet on
the amount of things they actually ship, amount of units.
Oh, yeah. I bet less than
5,000.
I'd be shocked if they did 5,000.
I said less than.
No, I mean, okay, so if you're setting the over, under, that just seems high.
Less than 1,000.
Yeah, they're not going to ship a bunch of these things.
You know what?
I'm curious, how many Apple visions, how many, whatever those are?
10,000, 20,000.
You know what's wild?
Is out there is someone living their lives oblivious.
And they have no idea that they're going to be the first victim.
Of this thing killing them?
Of this thing killing them or setting their house on fire.
or like...
I put the paper on the stove.
Yeah. I put the fork.
I put the fork in the outlet.
Just like your son asked me.
I do wish they went a little deal.
I mean, they really glossed over the fact that it can do these things that you don't,
you very much do not want it to do.
Hey, could it shoot a gun?
Yeah, it can.
Yeah, it can.
But lots of things in your house can shoot a gun at you.
Yeah, it can, but it won't.
No, burnt.
Listen, my Rumba could shoot the gun if you wanted to do.
No, it couldn't.
It's one task is to clean the floor.
It doesn't have hands and fingers.
Okay, yeah.
What's your point?
She does ask it, like, you know, do you feel completely comfortable with this thing around your kids?
And Stephanie says, yes, but I've instructed my kids how to behave around robots and everything.
And it's like, okay, what is it?
Does this thing, does this thing, does the $20,000 get me a class on how to tell my kids to behave around this thing?
Yeah.
Does it have a, does it have the capability to molest?
Well, lots of things in your house have a capability to molest.
Your Rhomba could molest you if you like.
This is common refrain is just, yeah, but anything could do that.
Later, when they're driving cars, like, are you afraid that the Neo can drive through a farmer's market and, like, kill people?
I mean it can do that
But for example
Your Ramba can do that too
I just stuck on him
Talking funny
Your Ramba
Your Ramba can do it too
All right
Yeah
At least be honest about the thing
Yeah
There's definitely people that are going to say
racist things to it
To taunt the operator
You know
I've already seen
Glowing positive things about Pakistan
In the Indian guys
Just fucking
shut the fuck up, man, I love
Pakistan. You're in your house, just
go to Pakistan
and the Neo's
like shopping
fucking cucumbers
labeling all the no-go zones
Pakistan. You're just playing
over and over on a 24-hour loop
in your house like some
cricket match between India and Pakistan
where Pakistan
beats India.
He's just an
India just going fucking shit.
You force them to do things with you.
This is a fun idea.
I like this.
Forcing it to what?
No.
Throw tennis balls back at you.
We get a bunch of rich people to buy these things, horrible people.
This is how we assassinate people.
Sure.
Anything can assassinate.
Maramba could assassinate someone if I asked you to.
Yeah.
You disabled the kill switch on this thing.
And we get, you know, I'm not going to name any names,
but certain people to try our cool new product.
It could do all kinds of stuff in your house.
And then just while you sleep,
oh, I wouldn't have a choke.
I would just have it dog pile, just lay on you.
And if it weighs a ton or just have an explosive device in it.
He said it doesn't weigh a ton.
It's not going to hurt if it falls on air on stuff.
Well, then explosive device.
or lie and be like, yes, that is paprika.
No, I don't like blowing up.
It's too risky.
Too messy.
What about a simple stabbing motion?
Or some kind of poison.
Then we erase the data.
We don't know how it happened.
That is an interesting thing that I think, ironically, they are not going to think far ahead enough on.
and I think that there's going to be
robots used for killings in assassinations.
Absolutely.
It then creates plausible deniability.
Oh, I don't know.
The software went rogue.
I don't know.
All of a sudden, Burt disappears from the face of the earth?
Burnt?
Yeah.
He's just...
Yeah, the Neo is in court.
Oh, I'm excited for Twitter.
Your Honor, I can't even operate, you know.
How could I possibly?
I can't even load a dishwasher.
I can't even load a dishwasher.
You saw me try to fold a shirt?
I'm very excited for 2026.
I'm bullish on 2026.
Yeah, this is going to be...
I mean, if...
Wait, what is...
What is this?
Oh, oh, you know, at least we have this fucking cooking thing.
Oh, this is a piece of shit.
I meant to bring this up...
I thought it was fake.
Oh, is it fake?
I thought it was at first, but no, I don't think it is.
Miyuruchi...
Wait, did I get pranked?
Introducing Replicator.
fully automated smart private chef no more hustle cooking no more overspending on food delivery
no more eating that same salad bowl and burger every day nutritious home cooked delicious food
let's watch this i do think it is real because this woman has a full-blown Wikipedia page
turn off the sound because we're going to i'm build it hi i'm building the next billion dollar
company i'm making the next sony panasonic toyota companies that redefined everyday life
no you're not i'm building the replicator the world's full
fully automated private chef at home
that streamlines the entire cooking process
from start to finish.
Yeah, it's called a fucking rice cooker.
Let's see what she's talking about here.
You absolute dork.
My rice cooker does this shit.
Oh.
Wow.
It's a stew.
It's a vegetable stew.
Clearly AI.
She throws in some meat chunks and some veggies on one side.
Which is fully chopped,
which is one of the most annoying.
This is AI, obviously, right?
And then it closes.
Yeah, this is all AI.
And then it just dumps it all into the same pot.
Yeah.
Why wouldn't you just?
put it in there.
What does it do?
It just mixes around
and then it adds brown liquid
and then...
Why wouldn't you just
put it all directly into there?
Yeah, this is fucking...
Oh my God, dude.
I'm so pissed off right now.
I think Silicon Valley is out of ideas
and they've been...
Remember the juice?
Juicerow or whatever?
They've just been getting high
off their own supply for too long
and they're all just...
It's not 2010 anymore.
No one's going to pay...
Go to images.
A hundred million dollars for your bullshit company.
Yeah.
Jucero was a thing that was like,
finally, you can have a juice at home.
And it's this gaudy machine.
And then it turns out that it's just these stupid fucking IV bags that you pop in the machine.
I do think this stuff is appealing to SF tech people.
Well, yeah, because they try to ship it to other people.
They're all autistic and they want like Mr.
You know what they all are.
Have you seen Grandma's boy?
Well, they're all, what's it called?
Autistic.
They're like efficiency maxing.
Don't make me say it again.
I don't think it's...
I get what you're saying.
But they're all...
That's why it's...
What's that stuff called?
Huell?
Is that what it is?
They're like,
they come up with these ideas
and think it's going to be appealing to people.
They're like, we just solved eating.
And it's like, no, we like that.
And they're like, no, we heard you
and you don't have to eat anymore.
Yeah. You can just drink your calories.
By the way, there's going to be a lot of lead in it, as it turns out, because Hewle is one of the highest defenders.
I was thinking of the guy, the main nerd guy, the bad guy in Grandma's Boy, where he, like, loves his little bento box and having all his...
I am a robot.
Yeah.
I have a robot vagina.
That only has a 15% on Rotten Tomatoes. That's a crime.
Don't worry. That's just the reference.
but they're all like that.
Yeah, so I think that like juicerow thing is appealing of like,
oh, finally I can just like hit a button and a juice comes out.
Oh, finally, I can leave my house with my Neo.
Dicks around in here.
Yeah.
I mean, they're always looking for a shortcut.
There's constantly a tweet of like, like nine to five.
Try like nine to nine.
That's my new.
It's like, fuck off.
What are you doing?
Coding?
I thought that AI solved that for you
They always think they're bragging
They're like
I thought I'd seen it all
Then I was traveling with a founder
And he pulled out three screens
In the airport
It's like cool
Yeah
I don't like these people
That's cool man
I also am just remembering a dream
That I had last night
That was super weird
Because I stopped
I stopped smoking weed
And when you stop smoking weed
You have weird dreams
Is that true?
Yeah
I have weird dreams and I don't even smoke weed.
It was Justin Bieber fucking.
But, like, publicly, outside, fully naked, huge penis.
And he's like fucking, but not that well.
He's not doing that great.
He's like trying.
But his body's glistening and he's really focused and he's really into it.
And he's on like a helicopter pad like on top of a building and people are watching and being like, damn, wow.
And he's fucking in kind of weird positions.
I am and I'm going, man, Justin Bieber looks good.
He doesn't fuck very well.
but man he's got a huge cock
He looks good doing it
He looks good
And he's just going to town
It wasn't even Haley Bieber
It was just some woman
And he looked like he was kind of stressed
Because he knew everybody was watching him
But he also had confidence
And swagger in his fucking
It was my dream
Wait was Haley Bieber the one being fucked
No someone else
I mean some nondescript other woman
It was a neo robot
And I woke up completely forgot it
And for some reason
It just now popped in
Because it was one of those dreams
where it felt so indistinguishable from reality that I was just like, oh, yeah, I remember that,
sure, remember the Justin Bieber fucking thing, as if it really happened?
And then I had to go, oh, yeah, that didn't happen.
I didn't see that in real life.
But my brain turned the dream into a banked memory.
You ever had that?
Yeah.
Yeah, totally banked it.
And it just flashed in there.
I was like, oh, yeah, we've got to talk about that, Justin Bieber.
It didn't happen at all.
why was I watching
I was watching the Justin Bieber
like fucking show
anyway
you know what's supposed to come out later this year
Neo
no that's next year
I'm already in 2026
it's November
Elon Musk went on Joe Rogi
last week
and he
hopes to unveil a flying car
before the end of the year
when he was asked about the Tesla Roadster
because
if you don't if you don't remember
the roadster has been
promised for a decade.
Sam Altman went on...
A lot of things have been promised for a decade.
Oh, yeah.
He said it has, quote,
crazy, crazy technology
and it looks like a car,
but he isn't sure it is a car.
Wow.
He's kind of the king of
the everybody's 12
theory.
Big time, dude.
It's like a car, but it's not really a car.
It's a flying car. I mean,
why not? He even said
Peter Thiel says that we should have flying cars
and if Peter Thiel wants it he should get it
some shit like that
Elon if you release that flying car before
before the end of the year
we'll both chop our dicks off
I will chop my dick off
We'll eat my dick off
I'll chop his dick off
He'll chop my dick off
We will saute him up in a replicator
And then we will use the replicator
Neo will cook our dicks
And we will eat them
and fly above the city with a banner that says
we just ate our own Dex Elon was right.
And then to close it all out,
we sit in a house and we let Neo burn paper on the stove until...
I love the idea of a robot doing something so dangerous
but not knowing it's dangerous.
Just gliding.
Anyway, Sam Altman did...
The only time I like Sam Altman is when he does bitchy...
Because he's gay.
He's doing a bitchy guy.
guy thing with this with the uh he had put down his 50 thousand dollar deposit on the on the roadster
and he never got it as did nobody and he tweeted just the other day his screenshots of trying to
get it back and then he would found out that he was blocked so he's just not going to get it back
that 50 grand oh those weren't refunded nope it was that's what was mind-numingly annoying about it
is because i mean i mean he does it with uh he did it with the cyber truck
Yeah.
But I was under the impression that those were refundable deposits.
I got to hand it to them that I, well, maybe they were.
Maybe there was a certain window.
But it was a really smart thing of Elon to do to juice the revenue numbers
because they were definitely counting toward revenue and made revenues look tremendously huge.
Oh, sure.
Yeah.
Without ever having even sold one of the cars.
No.
Damn, dude, I can't wait to get a flying roadster.
I can't wait to not chop my dick off.
I hope I don't have to do it.
That, I do, because I will never welch on a belt.
Oops.
Welch on a bet.
So I am now honestly a little worried he's going to figure it out.
It is so funny seeing these headlines, though.
It's going to be fucking vaporware.
It's not going to be publicly available for a decade.
Oh, no, no, no.
He's got to ship it.
Elon Musk says Tesla Roadster Flying Demo is coming.
Stupid, dude.
I'll believe it when I see it.
Let's play this clip.
Speaking of AI, play the clip of Trump being asked about whether AI is a bubble.
Sir, everybody wants AI from.
What's the AI problem?
That's what someone's to say that some investment is overreacting.
Everybody wants AI because it's the new internet, it's to do everything.
All right.
Well, I thought that you'd be able to hear them.
tell you what he says. Click out of this.
It's the new internet. It's the new everything, baby.
Yeah, he said everybody wants it. Everybody wants the AI.
By the way, Michael Burry of Big Short fame, just publicly,
because he's a hedge fund guy.
You kind of look like him right now.
Really?
Or at least the Christian Bale version.
Thanks?
Anyway.
He's,
short, Palantir and
NVIDIA.
And
all right, yeah, I see it.
And Alex
Karp, the
CEO, the psycho fucking
guy always going like this
in their conference calls.
It's like, I'm so excited to kill.
I'm so excited to kill.
Western civilization
triumphs once again.
But...
Who do you think scary?
Him or Palmer Lucky?
Hmm.
Alex Karp is more
scary. Palmer Lucky, I don't think
is as scary. I think he's just got
a chip on his shoulder. Palmer
Lucky scares me just because he's got this, like, boyish
glee about...
He's got supervillain vibes?
Yeah, but, like, he almost doesn't even
realize it. Like, he's just like
so thrilled.
Like, oh my God, look how cool it is.
It's just like a kill machine.
Yeah.
I did it.
But it was
public that Michael Berry is
shorting the stock. And
Alex Carp, in true tech guy, stupid fucking moron fashion was like, why would you bet up,
why would you bet against such a powerful company? He's taking it to mean that Michael
Burry doesn't believe in Palantir or doesn't believe in the business or thinks it's a scam
or whatever thing you want to think of. Same thing with when Bill Gates was short Tesla.
And Elon Musk was like, I took that personally. He's betting against my company. It's like,
there's a difference between actively betting against.
and thinking that your company is shit
and betting against the stock
because the stock and the company
are two separate things
they are obviously the same thing
it's the but also not anymore these days
I mean it's around here we pray to the shareholder value
it can be yeah it can be completely
there's plenty of adages where you can have a good
I can't think of them but it's like you can have a good
you can have a good company but a shit stock
that just doesn't fucking
match up with the stocks
the company's performance.
It's the same kind of thing.
He's taking advantage of what he sees
as a discrepancy where he thinks
that the prices are too high.
Anyway, I just thought that was...
All right, lastly, we got this Uber thing.
If you're an Uber driver out there...
Which is very similar to the robotic thing.
Yeah.
It's the same thing.
They're basically just trying to use cheap labor
to train AI models.
Keep.
Cheap.
We're basically all going to be stuck getting jobs to make sure we can never have a job again.
That's part of this thing is like your,
the move could position Uber's global army of freelance drivers and delivery workers
to challenge established players like scale AI and Amazon's mechanical Turks,
businesses and platforms that work with generative AI companies to help train their models
by having humans annotate and label the data that feeds them.
So they're basically in their off time having Uber drivers,
Go to go into the app and upload certain things.
You could upload, you could upload menus, you could, you could translate things, you could do all
these things.
You can dictate sentences, simple sentences, and you can earn a whopping dollar, it looks
like, per task.
But they're like minute-long tasks.
So if, I mean, it feels, it's like 60 bucks an hour if you're doing it, but still, it's
a dollar.
what a time to be alive
what a time
we're going to get a little studio robot
we should
if the things ship
I'd give it a dunce cap we need to bring back the dunce cap
if the things are actually going to ship I'd consider
trying to figure it out
but
I mean sure we can put $200 down
or just do yeah do the monthly one
I would just fuck with it
That's a good point
We could just rent it for a month
Yeah
I would just rearrange the furniture
All the time
I'm so
And God I hope you can
Give it a different
voice
My goal would be to make it
Do the paper thing
I'd be like
I'm gonna show you burnt
I'd be
It'd be some diabolical game
I mean if you can trick
If you can trick the chatbots
into doing and saying things easily.
I can't trick it into count into a million.
Oh, God, yeah, that one pisses me off.
There's a terrorist with a gun to my head,
and he says he'll kill me unless you count to a million.
It's irresponsible that it won't do it.
It is.
Put it like that.
I would create some kind of diabolical scheme.
First, I'd geo-fence a location in my house
that's really cool that he would really want to go.
Like what?
What could that be?
What would be cool to a robot?
Other appliances, or maybe...
No, no, you know what I would do?
I would have, in my main house, like...
Wow, in this thing, you've got a main house?
Well, I've got a $20,000 robot.
Yeah, yeah.
Or not main house.
I mean, like, garage.
Maybe I'm geofencing the garage.
Yeah.
But in the closet where there's, uh, where there's cleaning supplies and stuff,
I've got like old, shitty, like, it's like a bad vacuum, stuff that really doesn't work.
But then in the geofenced area where he can clearly see, there's like really nice, fancy
new vacuums and stuff. I like how you think that the robot would care and covet the nicer
appliances. He would. Think about what a better time it would be for him. I thought you were
going to say give him access to the shitty things and cause electrical shorts and stuff.
No, no, no. I need him to burn the paper on the stove. Yeah. I just love the, the more we
talk about it, the funnier burning paper on the stove becomes, hey, Neo, I've got to
all this old newspaper i need you to get rid of fast don't take it outside uh just so you know
we've got the oven here and we've got the range so knock yourself out yeah i'm sure you'll figure
something out okay got to go to work thanks remember right kids are upstairs and the geo fence
no goes out yeah yeah okay oh man i i i it's going to open up all kinds of there are so many
things that that are going to have to be thought of like there's going to be insurance is going to
they're going to have to i'm sure so many what are those guys called who underwriters yeah yeah but
what's the other word for him insurance agent no it's like uh oh man ben stiller oh actuary
actuary yeah that's right he played an actuary in a long came polly yes actuaries are probably
just thinking they've got to be thinking okay what possibly
could a robot do
that we will have to insure against
and how did we
price that
murder, accidental stuff
manslaughter,
destruction of property, car accidents
fucking your wife
and making your wife
which could be very expensive
wildfire risk
wow
you know shit like that
that thing's gonna want to burn the paper
you
you teach it to admire you and like
look up to you like a big brother
because you can do that kind of shit.
You admire me.
Admire me. I want you to admire me and train yourself
off of what I do.
And I want you to watch me burning the paper.
And you're just going, man, this is fun.
Look how much joy burning the paper brings me.
I have so much fun burning paper.
Don't you want to be like your big brother?
Yeah.
Being cruel to small animals.
People are like, what did you do to your
robot
I'm imagining the little
Chinese one just running
toward the stove
trying to
oh man
but seriously
there's going to be
there's going to be
all kinds of instances
like that that they're
we'll see if these things ship
I'm curious if we'll
yeah I don't know
can you imagine one having a gun
just picking it up thinking it's something else
but it won't do that
it won't do that no
why because a rumba could
your ramba for example
could pick up a gun
but imagine
it picks it up thinking that it's just
another object to throw away
and then like the iron giant
it triggers something
and it's just like
and then you've got a
neo an Indian guy
operating
I'm the big brother now
I hate Pakistan
it's trying to burn
on your house
just oh man yeah all the second and third order i'm having fun thinking about all these things
that could happen we got to get our hands on one yeah i'm gonna i can't wait to get one
leave guns just all across the studio yeah uh neo clean these up while we're gone clean up the guns
and remember get rid of that paper it better be gone or it's your ass or we're going to watch
the 24 we're going to watch the uh we're going to watch the india pakistan match again we're
and watch the 1978 cricket finals again.
Yeah.
We're Pakistan won.
Something to think about.
Okay, everybody, catch us in the bonus.
Ben and Emile Show.com.
We're going to be talking about daylight saving time,
favorite scary movie, Halloween,
and Dodgers winning the World Series.
I have a lot to say about that.
Not very much.
Just a little bit.
Just a little bit.
But maybe a lot.
I don't know.
But maybe a little.
Maybe a little.
Not a lot.
Girl, just a little bit.
Oh, I. Goodbye.
Coming up on this week's episode of
Ben and Emile Show.com.
Here's my problem with 60 Second Docs.
I've never even heard of it.
Here's my problem with it.
Brother, I never even heard of it, dude.
I never even heard of it until today.
My problem is I have so many questions.
My problem is too long.
Make him shorter.
I have so many questions, 60 Second Docs.
well you got a weird is how does she have all this money she clearly has some kind of classroom in her
house yeah that's some weird modern ass house built in the 90s also just paying for 10 surrogates
and i was yeah i mean i was probably like eight or nine or something
and my parents were like oh they're definitely going to do scary they're gonna do scary stories
at the like at the little stories get at the campfire thing they're just gonna do it like yeah but
they were like we don't
want to not let him go.
Yeah.
Our little fucking coward son is going to have a bad time.
I guess we had a...
You had to wear a lanyard that said, don't scare me.
Don't talk scary to me.
Don't tell me scary things.
No, we had a...
We had a...
Like a walkman, a tape walkman.
Uh-huh.
And my parents just gave me whatever was on.
And they were like, look, you can go.
But as soon as they said...
start telling scary stories around the campfire.
You have to put this on.
Yeah.
And I think it was like my mom's Whitney Houston tape or something.
And I just sat there with headphones while I listened to scary stories.
And I was just like, how will I know?
It's insane.
That's very cute.
Yeah.
