AI Personal Assistants are ruining people lives | TheStandup
1167 segments
Welcome to the standup. This week we
have with us some legendary guests. We
have a trash dev. We have Tev and first
time pod on the podcast, Bash Bunny.
Longtime friend though.
Uh anyways, sorry. This is going to be a
unique week because it is going to be a
little bit faster paced. We're going to
cover a couple more stories than normal.
And uh that's because this week has just
been super strange and I'm not really
sure how to describe it other than
probably this image right here. Maybe
this is the best way to describe what
has been going on. For those that can't
see, this is Gary Tan, president and CEO
of Y Combinator in a full bodysuit
lobster outfit. Uh let's just say that
people have open claw fever right now.
Uh, second off, there's another really
great uh, tweet that I thought would be
kind of fun to show, which is that like
40ome thousand accounts are currently
just completely wide open with OpenClaw,
>> where that means that anyone can just
log on and have admin privileges to your
entire life. And there's just thousands
upon thousands of these available on the
internet. And just one more, the head of
AI alignment and safety at Meta
accidentally had her inbox deleted and
then after having her inbox deleted by
OpenClaw decided, I'm going to tweet
this and went on the internet and told
every I you wouldn't be able to get that
out of me no matter what. I would be
hiding that information forever.
>> Cold dead hands.
>> Yeah, I got a quick clarification on
that, Prime. Yeah,
>> there is 0% chance you wouldn't leak
that that happened.
>> Well, yeah, but it'd be by accident, not
on purpose.
>> Okay. There's a huge difference between
the two.
>> We would find out.
>> All right. Uh, so I guess I guess the
real question is has I know we're we're
going to probably have a much different
experience in the Y Combinator podcast
uh of everyone dressed up as a lobster.
Has anyone here tried out one of these
AI personal assistants?
>> No.
>> No, cuz I'm terrified of myself.
No, not yet. I mean, I run I run a lot
of accept all dangerously permissions on
my computer, but I'm I'm at the screen
for when that happens. Like this virtual
cam I'm on right now because I'm calling
in from Linux today. OBS didn't have it
and I just said install all the packages
you need to make that work. And then it
did.
>> I don't know if it installed anything
else.
>> But you did,
>> but I have working virtual cam in one
try. So that was cool. That is actually
huge.
>> Yeah.
>> On Linux.
>> On Linux. On Linux. First try. Arch
even.
>> Hey, is that HTTP? Get that out of here.
That's not how we order coffee. We order
coffee via ssh terminal.shop. Yeah. You
want a real experience? You want real
coffee? You want awesome subscriptions
so you never have to remember again? Oh,
you want exclusive blends with exclusive
coffee and exclusive content? Then check
out Kron. You don't know what SSH is?
Well, maybe the coffee is not for you.
>> I hear video is getting easier these
days. Not that I'm actually going to do
anything with it, but I hear it's still
easier than audio. That's like the
general consensus. Okay, but real
question. Are any of you in the next
little bit going to be trying out these
autonomous bots?
>> I think I will be. I was moving myself.
I was talking to some people will be.
>> Yeah. I was talking to some people and
they were like giving me like a little
demo and I was like, "Man, that's pretty
cool." So, uh, if I could just like
build stuff while I'm just like
chilling, eating pancakes somewhere, I'm
going to try it. So, actually this past
weekend, I started embracing vibe coding
more. So, I started vibe coding a lot of
like iOS apps. So, I'm going to start
using like these agents so I can just
start prompting from wherever I am. It
does.
>> It's pretty different though than the
the assistant thing. Like, I've been
doing a lot of remote like cloud stuff.
I I've done like two billion tokens in
the last
>> Oh my god.
>> Um but but that's different than the
assistant stuff. The assistant stuff is
like I want to hook it up to my email so
it can like book a reservation for me
and my wife and then remind me that it's
Valentine's Day today or something. You
know what I mean? Like
>> so my primary use case for that is I
currently get spam calls from like all
these financial like debt loans or
whatever. So I'm trying to see if I can
use like OpenCL or whatever to just like
somehow block all those or just like
them all for me. It's like
>> question. Why do you get those spam
calls, trash? Is there anything that you
wish to tell us?
>> Well, I'll be honest. I thought it was
real at first and I started freaking
out.
>> But after about five about after 500
calls from the same woman, I assume
they're fake at this point. So, we need
I just need to get them out of my inbox,
dude. Seriously, 10 like 10 times a day,
I got to delete my voicemails all the
time. I don't know how to stop it.
>> You are You're not blocking the You're
not blocking the the number. There's you
block it, but they just call from a
different number.
>> Oh, okay. I thought you were saying
though you were getting a call from the
same lady. Is it like it was the same
number every time you're
>> That's how I knew they were fake. I was
like, there's no way this woman keep
calling me this this many times. It's
impossible.
>> I didn't know this many people wanted to
talk to me.
>> Trash, maybe you leaked the shirtless
pick. I don't know. You know,
>> I don't know. Possibly. Possibly.
>> All right. So So Trash, you're actually
going to give it a try. And your current
try is to do something that other
software already does. Are you going to
try to do a little bit of personal
assistance on it? Like, have you done
any research?
>> That's my personal assistance. It's to
make my life better. Dude, the software
on the on the Apple phone, it just
silences the call, but it doesn't like
go through your inbox and like
automatically clean it up.
>> Oh, can you make it go into your Dude,
that seems crazy. I do not I do not need
it going through and deleting.
>> Can open call do whatever it wants.
>> That's true. It's a It's It's uh
Everything's open to it, I guess. I
don't know.
>> Can you do this intelligence skill for
it? I think it it is open. But TJ,
>> yeah,
>> obviously obviously you can go through
inboxes and delete stuff.
>> Great point.
>> Like I mean it just
>> Well, that's your email. I didn't know
if it could do like your local voicemail
on your phone or something, but I should
I should just assume that yes, it can do
absolutely everything. Poor
>> To be fair, I haven't set up voicemail
in over 10 years. So, I don't know how
it works these days. I don't know if
it's changed cuz before it used to be
like with your provider would do your
voicemails. Now it could be like local
and people could get transcripts and
things are a lot different than they
used to be.
>> You What do you mean set it up, dude?
It's just like you get a phone and you
can leave a voicemail on someone's
phone.
>> Call me right now.
>> I'm I can't
>> Dad. Seriously, call me right now.
>> Okay. Not
>> Does Does Android not come with
voicemail?
>> Don't Don't show the screen when it
rings.
>> Yeah.
I'm calling right now.
>> That would be like the worst bumble of
all time.
>> I'm calling right now.
>> It does say your number, so
>> Yeah. Yeah, that's like there's no way
he probably doesn't hear
>> people. People People are so respectful
on
>> Hit ignore so it goes to voicemail.
>> No, no, no. We're going to play it out.
I want to make sure that people All
right, TJ,
>> that was the worst.
>> Put it up to Hey, TJ. Put put your phone
up to the microphone.
>> Okay.
>> All right. I'm I'm going to ignore you.
>> It's there.
>> Stop. Don't show your phone screen.
>> They definitely enhance.
>> The person you were trying to reach has
a voicemail that has not been set up
yet.
>> What?
How do people reach you? What if there's
an emergency?
>> Then I I will either answer my phone or
I won't. [ __ ] text me. I don't need I
don't need you leaving me voicemails.
What is this?
>> It feels like that's something that you
have to actively go do. I just got a
phone and it has voicemail.
>> No, you have to set up.
>> Yeah,
>> you have to set it up.
>> It's been so long that I don't even
know.
>> I've switched services. I'm not setting
that. I'm not setting that up.
>> Yeah. Don't
>> I don't I don't
>> This guy's an emergency contact for
somebody. Can you believe
>> I believe it. Open Clock could set it up
for you.
>> Open Open Clock could set this up. I
ain't set it up. I'm never setting it
up.
>> Okay. Well, mine works. Maybe I did
something I guess a while ago. I don't
know.
>> Yeah, you actually set it up and then
you forgot about it. And you're just
like, I don't
>> It doesn't have my It doesn't have my It
doesn't have my It doesn't have my voice
message. It just says a Google Fi user
has not been able to get to the phone.
Here you go. That's what it says.
>> Okay, that might be a Google thing.
Google might actually automatically have
it set up for you.
>> The original Open Claw.
>> The original The original.
>> I could use Open.
>> What are these iOS apps that you're
vibing
>> since we're here? What are these iOS
apps that you're vibing?
>> It's a secret cuz I'm have a big L. I'm
just kidding. Uh, one specifically one
specifically for me and my wife. So,
there's like this uh we we get these
arguments where I'm like, "Man, you just
left food in the sink again?" She's
like, "Oh, I left food in the sink
again. When's the last time I did that?"
And I was like,
No.
>> And I'm like, I don't know. She's like,
she's like, that's right. You can't tell
me. And I'm like, [ __ ] I'm making an
app to log this [ __ ]
>> This is literally episode 3, season 1 of
Black Mirror where the the entire
history of you. You're like trying to
like rewind and be like, "Oh, yeah. You
did do this last week."
>> Literally, I'm literally like I'm so
close to like $100 in and it's almost
done. I swear.
>> Trash. Pro tip. Can I give Can I give
you a pro tip? Just a quick pro tip.
It's actually
>> trash automated.
>> No, it's actually not about vibe coding.
The pro tip would just be you say,
"You're so right, honey. My bad. I'll
clean that up."
>> Well, well, so this is that this is the
other aspect of it is like I don't want
to cause an argument, so I'm using like
AI to tell me how to frame it better so
I don't sound like a douche.
>> Okay, here. Can I Can I also hop in on a
pro tip?
>> Are you ready for this one?
>> You see some dirty dishes in the sink
>> and you just clean them up?
>> I do, but I'm still not. Oh, kids, you
dishes in here. And if they say yes, you
go, you clean those up and you learn
yourself some responsibility.
>> And if it's not your kids, you go, I'll
clean these up. Not a big deal.
>> I thought you were going to say if it's
not your kids, you say, "Hey kids, you
want to earn your room and board?"
>> Yeah, for
>> you can also do that.
>> Yeah. But no, but that's that's my uh
that's my app idea that I'm currently
building right now. So then I can
>> I originally called it receipts. So I
could be like, "Here's the receipts to
like
>> Oh my god, is so funny." But the but the
AI was like that's a little too
aggressive for a title.
>> Trash. Quick question. Does she know
that you're building this?
>> No. She tried to She like walked up one
time and I closed my laptop. I was like
I'm I'm just going to hit you with like
photo evidence and she's probably either
going to divorce me or she's going to
use it against me. So I'm going to let
her use it too and we're just going to
like battle test each other.
>> The problem is it's going to you're
going to find out afterwards. You're the
one that's always doing it 10 times as
often.
>> I think my wife's listening. Are you
outside the door listening?
My wife is literally listening to the
conversation. She get
>> My wife is literally listening outside
the door right now.
>> Bring her in.
>> Bring her on the pod.
>> Bring her on the pod. Trash. Come on.
>> Don't do it. Trash. Come on.
>> I'm not exposing my wife to the
internet.
>> Go away.
>> I heard you're like eating a bowl of
cereal outside on the door. Ridiculous.
>> That I'm putting that on the app.
Another instance. going in. Receipt
number
>> receipt number one.
>> Your days are numbered, woman.
>> You should call you should have like the
subtitle of your app receipts be
speedrunning divorce any percent.
>> Yeah, for real.
>> But yeah, that's that's what I'm doing
with my life.
>> Nice.
>> Okay,
>> I love that. Bash, do you have anything
going on?
>> Hey, Bash, what are you doing?
I am I have not been uh I have not been
vibe coding. Actually, I guess I did
technically vive code a little something
for for stream.
Um just I I added a little schedule
command that went with uh that works
with Nightbot so that when because
everyone gets confused on time zones. So
I did that
>> and then I've been working on a little
um a little blog post management thing
for myself as a little personal project.
uh no vibes
and that's been good except I'm now at
the point where I'm like experiencing
all of the all of the foot guns that
previous me has uh has set out for
myself. So I'm at that point where I'm
like it's forced refactor.
>> If you if you like experiencing foot
guns, you should really try vibe coding
>> literally.
Tell me more trash.
>> I don't know. I'm a swift expert at this
point. So,
>> at least you have a quad skill that says
you are. Yeah.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
>> Okay.
>> I haven't even looked at the code yet.
>> So, you don't do much vibing at all
then. You're still all you're all
trading.
>> Well, I think it's kind of like I think
I would I would do it more, but I feel
like right now I feel like my my main
goal is actually that like friction, you
know? My main goal is like learning
right now. And like I I want to just I'm
happy. I I enjoy the the struggle.
Um yeah, I I think that if it was
something where I like just want the
results, then that's like I'd be happy
to do it at that vibe. But yeah, with
this project, I'm just like, nah, I want
to I want to feel it all.
>> Smart.
>> I'll tell you what though, I'm in I'm in
Prime's old codebase at work. AI cannot
help me in that codebase. Insane.
>> That's a wonderful absolutely insane.
>> Did you figure out how focus works? No,
you didn't.
>> I don't know. I don't know anything. I
don't know anything about anything. It's
insane.
>> Okay, for those that don't understand,
uh, Gibbon, which is what he's dealing
with, NRDP, Netflix ready device
platform. Uh,
>> oh, is that what that means? Never knew
that.
>> Okay, team, bro.
>> Anyways, just been there for many years.
You've been there since the great crash,
which you caused, and you still haven't.
You didn't even know this. Uh, okay. So,
NDP is like a browser. It is almost up
to date with all browser standards, but
there's also things that browsers do
that you just don't realize, such as
focus. Have you ever thought about the
fact that when you like you like hover
your mouse over something like there's
focus? When you click on a box, there's
focus. If you try to move around,
there's no focus. Oh, it's focused. So,
there's this uh if you look through
there, I think they used to use Powowski
distances. I don't know if it's changed,
but they do like programmatic
calculation of focuses and all that kind
of stuff. And so if you can figure out
how focus works and here's the best part
is since everyone got react pled focus
works through react.
So props there's like selected and all
this it is beautiful. It is a be like
everything's a higher order component.
How great is the higher order component
thresh
how how much fun are you having?
>> Zero.
>> I'm trying to have like AI help me like
dissect the codebase. I'm like what does
this do? And I don't care. I don't even
know if it's telling the truth or not to
be honest. But I'm believing it. So,
we'll find out. Ask me again in six
months.
>> Okay. All right. We'll put it on the
calendar. You know what I just what I
put on the calendar that's just about to
come up that I know
>> to put it on the calendar. Remind me in
six months.
>> Open. Remind me in six months. Uh is
about the Apple iPhone strap thing. I
know Casey's gonna get make fun of me so
much next week for saying that. But I
thought Apple people were going to buy
it and I've never seen one in public.
>> It's coming next week.
>> Wait, it's coming as in it's dropping or
you bought one and it's
>> No, no, no. I'm saying the six-month
reminder that we're I I told Casey it
you will see one public by now and he
said definitely not. And um
>> it's been 6 months
>> I think. So yeah, sorry Tra
>> That was like three weeks ago.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. Sorry to break that
to you.
Um, Prime, I want to hear more about the
stories that you had.
>> Which stories?
>> The ones at the beginning. I thought we
were going to talk about them.
>> Oh, yeah. We can talk about the stories.
All right. For those Yeah. I mean, I
That's That's totally cool. Uh, I think
this is my I mean, this is obviously the
probably the the most hilarious of them
all. Do you want to hear about this?
>> Is this Is this a video on it, so that's
why I wasn't sure if you actually wanted
to hear about this, but this is Oh, no.
I just moved my chat. There we go. Oh,
yeah. We're back into place. Uh this one
right here that you can see uh obviously
on the screen cuz it's very clear and
it's definitely the proper size and
everything and you're not having
problems seeing it. That
>> is uh a text message back and forth. So
this is a a head of safety and AI
alignment at Meta. So this person should
be knowing a lot about how AI works.
How's that?
>> Open claw zoom. Open claw enhance. Open
claw. Sorry. Go ahead.
>> Oh my god.
>> It's Why do people trust this?
their data.
>> Great question, Bash. Great question.
>> So, this is the most confusing part
about the whole thing is that they it is
that any like so many people are
launching into this so fast to kind of
put into perspective. Linux has 218,000
stars. Open Claw has like 221,000 stars
last time I checked.
>> That's insane.
>> So, that's how it came out in November
or October.
>> So, it's like a straight up curve. they
are immediately like everybody's jumping
on to this idea of a personal assistant.
And I think I understand why it'd be
convenient if I just had somebody that's
like, "Yo, find me flowers and make
their sure they come on this date." And
I could just like say that and then it
just goes off and does things like I see
the appeal of having something I can
just tell to do a bunch of stuff to.
>> Yeah.
>> But also if you just read the text in
here which is it it says no, do not do
that. No, stop. Stop. Like just over and
over again.
>> Just a little more context. People do
not know the story.
>> Okay. The story is very very simple. uh
the head of alignment and safety at
Netflix decides to give OpenClaw a
whirl.
>> No,
>> sorry at Meta. Gives OpenClaw a whirl,
hooks it up to uh her email and then I
assume the thing that happened before
this was please clean out my inbox for
all like a bunch of old junk mail or
something like that. and it decides that
effectively 24 hours and older is bad
emails and just starts deleting
everything that's 24 hours and older and
just keeps on going as fast as possible
until she can get to her computer and
control C it
>> cuz she didn't know how to stop it from
her phone.
>> Yeah, I love exec nuclear option nuclear
options sends me.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Do not do that. Like
>> it's like it's like when you're when you
have a dog and your dog is like eating
something. You're like no stop. Don't
eat the trash. Like it's like you're
This is like a dog in this in this
dog to stop it, but you can't.
>> Yeah.
>> You're trying to grab the chicken bone
out of its mouth like while it's
>> They're pooping on the carpet. DON'T
POOP ON THE FLOOR.
>> For me, nuclear option.
>> Nuclear option.
>> Trash. That is so funny. For me, it's uh
when the dog starts making the throat
sound
and you're laying in bed and you're you
YOU'RE LIKE YOU'RE RUNNING out of bed,
the blankets on you and you're like,
"No, don't do it." It's just like on the
carpet. My dog always runs for the
carpet as opposed to running for like
the the hardwoods. So, because you know,
it's like grass
>> and so I think she's like trying to be
helpful or something. I'm not really
sure what's going on, but every
>> No, she's fighting you, bro. She's
fighting you. This is like, dude, my cat
did that, but my cat would jump off the
bed and go underneath the bed to where I
can't grab him. And I'm just And I'm
just like I'm like trying to reach like
underneath the bed. I'm like, "No." And
my cat's just like
I'm just like, "No." I'm And then after
like a minute. I'm like [ __ ]
fantastic. Guess I'm cleaning that up at
4 in the morning. I hate it.
>> So open PTSD from that
>> that people are giving all of their
ether.
>> Yeah. You know what? I don't even want
to try open call anymore.
>> It might puke on the rug.
>> It might puke on the rug.
>> There is one I forgot I forgot to put
this one in, which I am a little bit uh
surprised. I can't tell if this is
actually real or not real. Like at this
point in life, I can't tell when things
are actually just we're we're faking
stuff. I forgot I had my transitions on.
So, just
>> transitioned on us, bro.
>> Sick transition, dude.
>> In case we forgot his name.
>> Oh, you're the private jet. Oh, okay.
Okay.
>> Holy [ __ ] That's the private jet.
>> Yeah. Welcome, guys. So, I know that
this is from programmer humor, but this
is the state of affairs we're currently
in with OpenClaw, which this one's
kernel mode. You just they're jokingly
or this is actually dead serious. I
never actually went and figured it out,
which is that it can just apparently
operate as pseudo. You just give it
pseudo privileges at all times and it
just can go in and out of any privileged
access that it needs. I know this is
generally a joke, but people would use
this immediately.
>> Yeah.
>> And go and be like, "Oh, yeah. We should
just give it always have it have as much
access as possible." So if it just needs
to delete root, it can just delete root
or read anything from anywhere. Like we
should just let it have that. Like that
is going to be the final state of this
all. Even though I don't think this I
mean I I don't believe that's real at
all. Uh I think someone can even build
it right now. I don't even know if it's
possible to build.
>> It will be.
>> Are people like self-hosting the the
model?
>> No.
>> Yeah.
>> Not usually.
>> Minis, right? I thought everyone's
buying Max.
>> You guys You guys are so All right,
let's break out the whiteboard.
>> Yeah. Can Yeah, someone someone in chat
is also confused about the Mac minis.
Where do they fall into this?
>> So, okay. So, you buy one of these.
Okay. You buy one of these.
>> Oh, you got one. Okay. Club local host
later. So, he has to have his cloud bot
ready.
>> This is my This is the key card that I
use to get into Club Local Host. Okay.
You can't just show up and say, "Oh, I'm
running it in the cloud." No, no, no.
You have to have one of these.
>> What do you buy this for? It's so that
it can do iMessage. That's the only
reason people are buying this. They are
paying on their their clawed pro max
$200 a month to then run this
separately. Okay. They're not going to
This is just a box.
>> Yes.
>> Why aren't they using WhatsApp?
>> What models do you think they have that
they can run locally fast enough to go
do everything in their life and go do
modal things and everything?
>> Very fair.
>> $600.
>> There's no [ __ ] way. one one
trillion% one trillion%.
They are not hosting their models
locally on this.
>> So, let me get this straight. People are
buying thousands of dollars worth of
computer to get access to iMessage.
>> Yes. And the other thing, the other
thing, the other reason you use this,
all the websites check to see if it's
coming from a stupid Safari browser on
Mac and say, "Oh, it's probably not a
bot." cuz no one's stupid enough to buy
hardware to run their bot farms on a
Mac. So you get captured less and other
things less. That's the other reason
that people are doing that.
>> God.
>> Yeah.
>> I'm I'm one I'm one trillion% serious.
They are not running local models. You
cannot run a serious model on just one
of these.
>> Yeah, but you could probably want to run
a 1.5bit quantized Kimmy K on there.
>> Quick question, Prime. You It's already
stupid to hook up your whole life to an
AI model. You want to give it to a one
that's an imbecile. Is that Is that your
contention?
>> Okay, fair point. Fair point.
>> Okay. Oh, I want to put it on the
slowest dumbest version of the personal
assistant possible that
come on.
>> Wait, so what model are are people using
different models with with Claude?
>> Open AI bought basically bought they
hired the guy. You can use any model you
want. You just put in a different key
and it will just say, "Oh, I want 5.3
Codeex to run it or I want 4.6 6 Opus or
I want whatever, but they're definitely
not local hosting the model.
>> Okay. I thought because there are some
people that have like the series of Mac
minis all hooked together. I think those
ones are because they have 64 uh gigs of
unified memory on them.
>> Yeah, but that's not the same person who
buys this, turns openclaw on, hooks it
up to the internet and says, "Please,
anyone access my whole entire life?"
>> That's insane. Oh my god, the privacy is
dead. There's there's not only they are
shipping their entire life up to the
model to the cloud provider saying every
every single thing every email that you
have every single question you have
everything not even just like oh what I
happen to type in Chetch they're like
have my whole life put it in there yes
it is one trillion% people are not
running these locally
>> the FBI is like finally
>> yeah yeah right NSA has never been
happier ever they're like oh there's
that many people with open okay cool
>> yeah with completely completely open
open clause. They just go troll around
on the internet. They can find them.
Yeah.
>> Yeah.
>> So, that is that is kind of like the
part one of the insanity that's
happening in the Silicon Valley. I
figured it's a good time to kind of move
on to part two.
>> Yeah.
>> Which part two uh this one's going to
have many points, but I think the one
that we just need to really just focus
in on is this right here.
>> This is my favorite one.
>> For those that have not seen this,
>> seen this. This you first off you'll
notice that if you look right next to
the guy in the center in the white I
forgot his uh name. He's the prime
minister of India, right?
>> Yes, that's correct.
>> Can you enhance this for?
>> No.
>> Uh no, there's this is
>> this is not going to get enhanced. This
is I'm playing this off of Windows Media
Player.
>> We see that, but I'm wondering why don't
you just press full screen.
>> I was going to say some press full
screen it freezes Riverside.
>> Okay. Well, don't do that. Don't do
that. You may have forgot how crazy uh
all
>> I'm 90% done with vibe coding a
riverside replacement. So
>> that by the way TJ that's every single
app ever created is Dude. Bro, I'm 90%
done.
>> Yeah. Well, check me out next week.
Don't need it anymore.
>> Check me check me out next week. We'll
be on We'll be on ours.
>> All right, let's do it.
>> I think Claw bot can make this less J.
>> Open Claw. Sorry. One sec. One sec. One
sec. be a Riverside clone right now.
>> All right, here we go. So, let's play
this. So, first uh Bash from our
perspective
uh the the guy on the right to the prime
minister of India is Sam Alman. The
person to his right or to our right is
uh is a CEO of anthropic Dario.
>> This is at a big AI summit in India.
>> Yes.
>> So, you can see behind it it's impact
summit. So this is like the biggest
thing. And so for whatever reason,
>> the prime minister has decided that
everybody needs to hold hands
>> at the end to show that they're
>> Look at that. And look at Sam. Look at
Sam put his hand away. Pull it away.
>> And then look at them. There's only two
people in there that are that are not
holding hands with the person next to
them. And it's Sam and Daario. Their
hands are spread apart right at the top.
Right there. Th
>> This is what I'm wondering. If you go
back like a couple frames, he looks
behind Daario to like the guy next to
him. Like, did he want to hold the other
guy's hand instead? Cuz he knew that
Dario's standing next to him, but he
still looks
>> Look at Sam. Like Sam is watch. He's
looking for someone else. See that?
Like, who's he? Look, he's looking
behind him. I think
>> Look at his looking over there.
>> That's my expression when I
>> He's like, "Yo, someone else trying to
hold hands. Like, where is he looking?"
>> That's actually such a good point. Did
he think he was going to just go around
Adaio and Dario just by himself? He's
looking. I honestly think that was going
through his head. He's like, I got to
hold someone's hand and it ain't his. So
maybe it's the other dude
>> because look at this. He starts with his
hand down. He look at him. He's looking.
He is contemplating Daario.
>> I wish this was pulled back just a
little bit further and we could see
Daario's expression at the same time. Is
Daario recoiling even more?
>> You know, is Daario is Sam like, "Oh,
maybe we will, maybe we won't." AND THEN
DAARIO'S LIKE, "OH MY GOODNESS, I WISH I
COULD."
>> Maybe Sam was like looking like Look at
that. Maybe he was getting ready to
>> They're both looking down at the hands.
Look at her. They're both looking down.
>> They're both They're both
They both see They both see that they're
the ones not holding hands, though.
That's for sure. That's for sure.
>> This makes me cringe so hard. Oh my god.
>> Oh, it makes I love it. Maybe. Okay,
hold on. So, now I'm actually I'm going
to actually have to say that Sam is
vindicated
>> and that it was Daario cuz here's why.
Cuz look at them. They were both looking
at the hands, right?
And then Sam looks like he's like,
"Okay." And he like leans it up and he
goes and he looks for like help like hey
like who am I am I supposed to hold your
hand?
>> Yeah.
>> Like maybe that's what's going on there.
He's just like uh they turn
>> look at the prime minister. He's like
Jesus.
>> Yeah. Yeah. I know.
>> I like
>> it's like it's like your dad watching
like your brothers fight or something.
He's like, "Oh my god, can't believe."
>> Do you think the prime minister was a
theater kid? Cuz this is kind of giving
theater kid energy. It is big time
theater kid energy. Great
>> in the show. You all hold hands and you
raise your hands up and you bow together
>> and then they got to say up to the crew
down to the pit. Thanks everyone for
coming. Exactly.
>> Yeah. Same energy. I like I don't know I
don't know if India has the same play uh
cultural mechanics that we do. So this
may just simply be
>> they're pretty timeless.
>> We are all No, I don't know if it's
timeless. We're all going to uh we're
all trying to shape the future together.
Everyone hold hands in unison is how I
read that. Not as a theater kid ends a
show.
>> I like Bash's interpretation better.
>> Okay,
>> fair.
>> And then they're the two kids that were
in the in the crew that were mad at each
other because they both didn't get head
crew member because they don't play nice
with others and they're like, I deserve
that spot. I should have been manning
the spotlights.
>> Wait, what was the song with Michael
Jackson where they all hold hands? Heal
the world or something.
>> Beat it or we are the world. No,
>> it's not beat. I know what it is. It's
It's I know. It's a black or white. It's
black or white.
>> No, it's like a song where everyone has
a part in it and they all sing like
their own section.
>> Ebony and Ivory.
>> Heal the world. Isn't it Isn't like
something in the world? Heal the world.
Someone in chat knows.
>> It's like we are
>> Hey, we're not allow We're not allowed
to uh like Michael Jackson.
>> Oh, we are the world. I was right.
Someone the world. This is like the
modern day we are the world but for AI.
>> And then they didn't hold hands
>> and then no one
>> Oh, you don't want to you don't want to
like solve
Can you play it out in real time, too,
to get a feel for how long they're
standing there at the end? Because it's
a long time where they're both just
going like this.
>> Yes. Hold on. Let me let me get Let me
get it back. Let me get it back on there
because that at the end.
>> Yeah. They start touching forearms. So
weird.
>> They are. That's
>> They're literally just rubbing forearms
together, dude.
>> So, there we go. We're multiple seconds
in at this point.
Oh, but I do like this right here. Hold
on. I'm going to slow it down. Daario
still has not done it. Sam's cheering by
himself, but Daario still has his hand
down.
>> There you go.
>> Oh, and they just hit shoulders and then
they stand here at least for another
five seconds for photos and then my
video cuts off, but they continue to
stand there for photos.
>> Yeah, I love that.
>> Okay, I will say Dario is has his hand
aggressively down.
>> That's See, that's kind of what I was
saying. I it kind of looked like
>> number one they're probably surprised
cuz I'm sure their PR teams would have
told them you guys have to hold hands or
not stand next to each other like if you
can't play nice don't play at all
situation here but so they're surprised.
It looks to me like Sam is trying to
figure out how to hold Daario's hand and
Daario's like I'll sue you. I will say
that you were trying to distill our
models. Okay. You were trying to osmosis
steal my energy you demon.
It is. Yeah, Dario was working for
OpenAI at one point. He left over safety
concerns and now he runs Anthropic,
>> which is kind of surprising.
>> They just get rid of their safety stuff.
Didn't they just like water down their
safety box?
>> Yes. Which is very, very funny because
Open AI watered down their safety stuff
not too long ago and now Anthropic just
got done watering down theirs.
>> All right. You know what? I'm team
Daario.
>> What?
your team Dario.
>> Wait, how did that how did that work
with Dario?
>> Oh,
>> like nobody likes Sam. Everybody hates
Daario. There's a big
>> Oh, well.
>> Oh, sorry guys. I'm I'm I'm under a
rock. Okay. This is the first time I've
ever heard of Daario. I don't know who
he is.
>> I'm team I'm team open Code. There we
go. That's what I got.
>> They're actually, believe it or not, not
competitors.
>> I'm just saying I'm just talking about
AI people with AI monies right now.
Okay.
>> Okay. Got it.
>> I'm going to come over a model. I'm
calling it prediction.
>> DJ, are you going to explain to Bash the
things because you looked like you were
getting ready to explain.
>> Oh, sure. Well, sort of. I mean, we've
talked about this a few times, so sorry
uh chat and or audience if you're bored
of us saying this, but in general, I
always get the vibes from Anthropic that
they really want to be my dad. Like, I
already have a dad who actually loves me
and wants the best for me. I don't need
Daario thinking that he knows what's
best for me. So, I I'm not a fan of them
because it always feels like as soon as
they get one step ahead, they'll pull
the ladder up as fast as they possibly
can, lock everyone else out, and make
sure that they're the only people
allowed to make AI cuz they know best.
>> Oh, true. They did that.
>> And I don't that's I'm not in if we're
going to have AI, I would rather have
like competing models or like open
models or some other stuff where they're
trying to serve me the best that they
can to get all my money as opposed to
thinking that they're my dad. I don't
like that very much.
>> Yeah,
>> that's fair.
>> Yeah. And every interview I see with
Daario, he just gives me that feel of
like, well, I know better than Well,
it's more like, well, I know better than
everyone.
>> I feel like I've kind of concluded I
don't want to be in a room with any of
the any of these AI CE.
>> That's probably the best take. Yeah,
that's smart. That's smart.
>> So, I don't I don't watch any of their
interviews or follow any of their stuff
on Twitter. I like I I like mute it, you
know? I'm like I don't
>> Good. I I got the monkey on my timeline.
I'm I'm living peacefully.
>> Yeah, me too. Punch the monkey, baby.
Let's go.
>> Poor poor little guy,
>> dude. He got He was getting hugged now.
Now he has best friends. Uh, by the way,
someone just said anthropic bros are
what? Kickier
would have
kavicular kavicular kavicular.
>> You're so close.
>> You're still believe it or not.
>> Tropic bro is what looks maxing bro
would have been if he would have went to
Harvard. Very very funny.
>> Josh, put me in a put me in a Sigma Chad
face and do an edit quick.
>> All right. Uh, also, by the way, did you
know I don't know if you guys know this,
but this also feels like a Silicon
Valley episode. Does anyone remember the
uh Son of Antoine from from Silicon
Valley? I did not get the video, so I'm
very sorry because I thought I'd get
DMCA, so I just have to describe it as
opposed to to playing it on the show.
But
>> uh
son of Antoine
>> is the AI machine that Gilfoil creates.
>> And Gilfoil in one of the later episodes
tells it to clean up the code base and
ensure that there's no bugs. So it
deletes all the code
>> from the from the repo because that of
course would be the safest way to have
no bugs is no code at all. And then
right afterwards it orders 4,000 lbs of
hamburger because it wanted to find a
cheap way to have lunch for everybody.
That's so good.
>> Ahead of its time.
>> It's ahead of its time. Like this is
where Crazy watching Open Claw happen,
>> but it was actually Son of Antoine this
whole time.
>> Unbelievable prediction, honestly.
>> Best character.
>> It is actually a kind of goated move. I
would do that.
>> Yeah,
>> sounds like the move.
>> Yeah, delete the code base.
>> Delete the code base.
>> Stoked on the hamburgers, man. 4,000 lbs
of meat. Let's go.

The video discusses the rapid and sometimes chaotic adoption of AI personal assistants, particularly focusing on "Open Claw." It highlights the risks associated with granting AI broad access to personal data, exemplified by a Meta executive accidentally deleting her inbox. The conversation touches on the convenience versus the dangers of these tools, with some participants expressing fear of AI's capabilities while others are eager to experiment. A significant portion is dedicated to the "Open Claw" phenomenon, its rapid rise in popularity (surpassing Linux in GitHub stars), and the potential for misuse, including granting it pseudo privileges. The episode also delves into the human element, with discussions about personal app development (like an app to log arguments with a spouse), the complexities of managing codebases, and a humorous anecdote about AI ordering a massive amount of hamburgers. Finally, the video touches on the perceived arrogance and safety concerns surrounding AI company leaders, specifically Sam Altman and Dario Amodei, and draws parallels to the fictional AI "Son of Antoine" from the show Silicon Valley.
