I think I speak for everybody when I say, get Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang on the podcast!
-
“Take me through the OpenAI board saga”. My boy Lex got straight to the point XD
-
Sam Altman would make a great politician! He talks a lot without actually saying anything.
-
I never thought I would say this but Lex looks more alive than his guest.
-
Would be great to see an up and coming interview with Ilya
-
Two hours of information withholding.
-
I love Lex poked from every angle trying to get Sam to talk about about the openAI drama, and all responded with deplomatic answers or redirections. But then he asked how Sam felt, his personal feeling through this whole drama, finally it cracked.
-
This IS AGI answering the questions.
-
Lex is the only channel I check the length of the video thinking: "only" 2 hours? ❤
-
It’s nice to include robots like Sam Altman in the conversation
-
Feels like he’s portraying a humble, sensitive persona when he may actually be an egomaniac with unbelievable power at his disposal. Didn’t learn much from this interview, but still engaging and important stuff watching Altman’s communication strategies.
-
Lex you have so transcended any interview of Altmann and any interview about AI. You patiently, empatheticly asked and then let him search internally for his answers, his thinking - good or bad. Thank you sir.
-
This dude speaks like such a politician
-
Lex asked all the right questions, but I remember nothing from Altman's answers after the interview completes.
-
Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Sam Altman, Jensen Huang and Bill Gates in one room with Lex hosting the discussion in a round table discussion would be insane and totally relevant. This would be the ultimate podcast.
-
Thank you for this interview 🫶🏻
-
Never thought Sora would create a Lex's Podcast
-
This guy gives “The character who is on everyone’s good side, but actually turns out to be the villain” vibes
-
Thank you Lex. For these long discords to be able to hear and SEE someone's intent
