00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:15.199
Say it loud and say it proud.
00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:18.320
Success is not villainy.
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:20.160
Well, thank you, Jeff Bezos.
00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:21.839
I really appreciate that.
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:28.160
I really appreciate you telling us your politics openly and plainly with no nuance.
00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:33.679
Quote, we have to beat China to the moon, and I believe we will beat China to the moon.
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:43.039
Well, that may be a little bit of shameless promotion for his Blue Origin organization and for cooperation with NASA, which is kind of cool.
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:46.640
I think everybody wants to expand in the solar system.
00:00:46.799 --> 00:01:11.519
I think everybody wants resources from other planets, the possibility of living on other planets, having human beings advance in technology and medicine, jobs, having the United States, at least unless your politics are that everything's evil, everything needs to be flipped upside down unless you're the one in charge, in which case, then you just need to profit handsomely from all of those rather horrid political statements that you made that you never intend to follow through with unless you're a lunatic.
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:17.840
We have to be able to land cargo routinely on the moon to support a lunar base on the moon, said Jeff Bezos.
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:21.519
There's every reason to believe that we could put humans on the moon in 2028.
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:24.319
Well, then that of course has begged the question.
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:45.760
With athletes, not that necessarily that athletes and celebrities, or those whom I trust, whether or not we ever landed on the moon in the first place, or if it was some publicity stunt because people watch a TikTok video in which the American flag was facing the wrong way, or there's a ripple in a flag when there shouldn't be anything, or some such theory, whether it's conspiracy or truth, almost matters not at this point.
00:01:46.000 --> 00:02:03.519
Nonetheless, Bezos' argument is that not that the moon is some resource rich satellite orbiting the Earth, but that the Moon is sort of a stepping stone, like Greenland is to launching our submarines and having military bases, like Taiwan and Japan are surrounding China.
00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:08.080
Sort of like our military bases in places like Iraq and Saudi Arabia.
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:10.639
These are stepping stones to something greater.
00:02:10.879 --> 00:02:15.599
If China were to colonize the moon before the United States, do you think that they would share it?
00:02:15.840 --> 00:02:18.080
Do you believe that they would threaten the United States?
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:21.199
Do you believe they would destroy the United States' bases on the moon?
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:34.960
It's important that the United States make it there first, but one can also imagine from a political standpoint, if a different political party were having the presidency, they might allow free cooperation on the moon and not protect its own bastion on the moon.
00:02:35.120 --> 00:02:52.400
Nonetheless, the freedom to transport goods and services on the moon is important because if we had actual bases on the moon, then we could construct other things from the moon, transport other things from the moon, and then finally start having easier access to other planets in our solar system for very interesting things that we might not even know about yet.
00:02:52.639 --> 00:03:03.439
Bezos said that we will use the sooner the lunar soil to manufacture solar cells and possibly oxygen and also rocket fuel.
00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:05.199
So this is of course important.
00:03:05.360 --> 00:03:18.879
In the absence of having this, if one of our geopolitical global enemies from a financial standpoint and possibly a military standpoint has that first, then the United States, the United States will have a significant disadvantage.
00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:22.639
He wants it to be a sustainable, quote, a sustainable lunar base.
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:25.120
Well, so does everybody else.
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:40.479
But of course, Bezos is saying, don't punish me for being successful, reward me for being successful because one of the trickle-down, nobody likes that word anymore, thanks, HW Bush, but trickle-down economics is what applies here.
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:57.599
Meaning that if Bezos' Blue Origin company makes it to the moon and is successful with a lunar colonization and then goes to other parts of the solar system and possibly even beyond, this will be good news for everybody, because everybody has the possibility of benefiting from it.
00:03:57.759 --> 00:04:07.039
Also, this is in large part other than NASA and some, I suppose, taxpayer public funding that goes hand in hand with almost all space travel from the United States.
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:10.240
His company, Bezos' company, is the one footing the bill.
00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:18.959
His shareholders, his stockholders, his investors, these are the individuals that are footing the bill for all of these projects.
00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:25.759
To the tune of billions and billions of dollars, Bezos is taking a risk here, a significant risk.
00:04:25.920 --> 00:04:29.199
He wants to be rewarded for that risk instead of villainized.
00:04:29.279 --> 00:04:45.360
He understands the political climate is that there's 50% of the population in the United States and growing that views anything involving capitalism that they cannot define, cannot name, and do not understand, and have no idea what socialism is, even though they like it because it feels good to be part of a hive mentality.
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:49.519
Bezos realizes that he is going to be public enemy number one.
00:04:49.759 --> 00:04:51.759
Our goal is to fly every day.
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:56.639
Once we're flying every day, we want to fly every hour and then every minute.
00:04:56.879 --> 00:05:01.759
Don't think I'm crazy because dreams become realities and realities become the new truth.
00:05:01.920 --> 00:05:02.240
Okay.
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:04.319
This leads us to AI.
00:05:04.399 --> 00:05:05.519
How can AI help?
00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:10.480
Well, let's speculate a little bit about how AI can help Jeff Bezos' company.
00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:17.519
AI can help determine the appropriate amount of fuel for launches, launch schedules, launch times, engine upgrades.
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:23.680
It can help calculate gravitational forces on the moon and what might be required for stabilization.
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:28.399
It can help determine the proper formulae for rocket fuel and all these things that he wants.
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:39.199
Bezos claims that there's no sort of disappearance of AI, even if there's some sort of a stock market, bubble pop, as they say, because these things don't disappear.
00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:46.639
The internet didn't disappear, the cotton gin didn't disappear, militaries don't disappear, technology doesn't disappear.
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:51.519
It continues its breakneck forward movement into the futures.
00:05:51.759 --> 00:05:54.399
Of course, AI data centers in space.
00:05:54.560 --> 00:05:56.480
I personally believe it is a good idea.
00:05:56.639 --> 00:06:09.360
If people argue because they've been paid off and because advocacy groups have been bought off and quote, influencers have been bought off, including like some podcasters, that AI data centers should not be in the United States, well, then why not put them in the ocean?
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:10.800
Why not put them in outer space?
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:11.680
What's the problem with that?
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:30.079
I'm sure there will be a different problem with it when Bernie Sanders says that they should regulate it, and that only the Bernie Sanders group should have money, and only the Bernie Sanders group should make decisions, and that essentially those that claim democracy will die are the ones that wish to control everybody's lives and claim that it's democracy because they are essentially communist ones.
00:06:30.879 --> 00:06:37.600
Nonetheless, if there's a politician who's picking villains and pointing fingers, that means they don't have a solution, said Bezos.
00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:38.560
Well, Mr.
00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:58.879
Bezos, though not previously a fan because of some of your behaviors and some of your actions during the COVID hysteria, I have to say this new Jeff Bezos or this old Jeff Bezos actually having a coming out party of his beliefs and actually taking ownership of what it is that he's doing is wonderful.
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:01.279
Absolutely wonderful.
00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:22.399
Okay, if Jeff Bezos' predictions are true and people in the future will have more jobs because they're working on these things in tandem with AI, people will have more jobs because there will be more planets, more business, more operations, more industry, and perhaps discoveries that will revolutionize how human beings live.
00:07:22.560 --> 00:07:24.240
This could be a really great thing.
00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:27.519
But even more to the point, this is capitalism 101.
00:07:27.680 --> 00:07:30.160
Capitalism 101 says, I'm going to take AI.
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:32.079
I'm going to take our investments in AI.
00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:36.079
I'm going to take our newer investments in space travel.
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:37.759
I'm going to combine them all in one.
00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:38.800
I'm taking the risk.
00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:40.240
My investors are taking the risk.
00:07:40.399 --> 00:07:46.399
Not that Jeff Bezos is going to be filing for bankruptcy, but if this does not work, that is a catastrophic financial loss.
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:49.199
This is what capitalism is: no risk, no reward.
00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:54.879
And he and his investors are essentially taking all the risk, in tandem perhaps with some taxpayer dollars.
00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:58.399
This is Jeff Bezos' vision for the future, or at least one of them.
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:00.000
Brilliantly laid out.
00:08:00.319 --> 00:08:24.879
And he is doing well to recognize the quote political forces opposing him, which are nothing more than foreign governments pouring billions of dollars into the United States for individual influencers, podcasters, media networks, and academia to try to transition the United States into some communist utopia in order to remove the United States as a bastion against the spread of communism without firing a single shot.
00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:28.800
This has been another episode of Superintelligence Politics.
00:08:28.959 --> 00:08:30.160
We hope you enjoyed it.

Subscribe, listen.

00:08:36.559 --> 00:08:37.679

00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:38.559
Thanks, everyone.
00:00:12.720 --> 00:00:15.199
Say it loud and say it proud.
00:00:15.519 --> 00:00:18.320
Success is not villainy.
00:00:18.480 --> 00:00:20.160
Well, thank you, Jeff Bezos.
00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:21.839
I really appreciate that.
00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:28.160
I really appreciate you telling us your politics openly and plainly with no nuance.

Quote, we have to beat China to the moon, and I believe we will beat China to the moon.
00:00:33.920 --> 00:00:43.039
Well, that may be a little bit of shameless promotion for his Blue Origin organization and for cooperation with NASA, which is kind of cool.
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:46.640
I think everybody wants to expand in the solar system.

00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:17.840
We have to be able to land cargo routinely on the moon to support a lunar base on the moon, said Jeff Bezos.
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:21.519
There's every reason to believe that we could put humans on the moon in 2028.
00:01:21.680 --> 00:01:24.319
Well, then that of course has begged the question.

Well, so does everybody else.
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:40.479
But of course, Bezos is saying, don't punish me for being successful, reward me for being successful because one of the trickle-down, nobody likes that word anymore, thanks, HW Bush, but trickle-down economics is what applies here.
00:03:40.719 --> 00:03:57.599
