Why would the ATMs
go weak-titty in Ohio?

Yeah, seems de minimis.

Uh, yeah, but I mean, this...
this violence in Uzbekistan,
356
00:15:30,554 --> 00:15:33,181

No, dude, I...
I don't blame you, man.

till we clear all

- JEFF: Ah, Steel man?
- Yeah.
387
00:16:38,664 --> 00:16:41,749
Okay. Um, Steel man says,
388
00:16:41,750 --> 00:16:43,418
your platform
was already divisive
389
00:16:43,419 --> 00:16:46,087
and last week's upgrade
made it way worse.
390
00:16:46,088 --> 00:16:49,090
And now you've inflamed
a volatile situation
391
00:16:49,091 --> 00:16:51,259
and people
are using generative AI
392
00:16:51,260 --> 00:16:54,095
to circulate
hyper-personalized messages,
393
00:16:54,096 --> 00:16:56,097
unfalsifiable deepfakes.
394
00:16:56,098 --> 00:16:59,308
Shit like named person X
goes to named area Y,

396
00:17:00,561 --> 00:17:03,104
to go at named group
at named hour,
397
00:17:03,105 --> 00:17:07,608
promoting genocidal
proximate attacks,
398
00:17:07,609 --> 00:17:11,279
creating sectarian division
with video evidence,
399
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,574
massive market instability, fraud.
400
00:17:14,575 --> 00:17:17,660
Yeah, I guess all that,
though, is debatable,
401
00:17:17,661 --> 00:17:19,538
right, at Traam headquarters?
402
00:17:20,664 --> 00:17:21,665
Look...
403
00:17:23,375 --> 00:17:24,834
first time people saw a movie,
404
00:17:24,835 --> 00:17:26,669
everybody ran screaming
because they thought
405
00:17:26,670 --> 00:17:28,130
they were gonna get hit
by a train.
406
00:17:29,506 --> 00:17:33,010
The answer to that was not,
"Stop the movies."
407
00:17:33,927 --> 00:17:35,094
The answer was,
408
00:17:35,095 --> 00:17:37,638
- "Show more movies."
- RANDALL: Yes.
409
00:17:37,639 --> 00:17:41,476
We're gonna show users
as much shit as possible
410
00:17:41,477 --> 00:17:44,270
until everyone realizes
nothing's that fucking serious.
411
00:17:44,271 --> 00:17:46,147
- RANDALL: Yeah.
- Nothing means anything
412
00:17:46,148 --> 00:17:47,315
and everything's funny...
413
00:17:47,316 --> 00:17:48,983
- RANDALL: Exactly. Precisely.
- ...and cool.
414
00:17:48,984 --> 00:17:51,152
- Funny.
- Intellectual salon.
415
00:17:51,153 --> 00:17:52,779
That's why I built this place.
416
00:17:52,780 --> 00:17:54,322
It's exactly
how I saw it working.
417
00:17:54,323 --> 00:17:57,075
Shall we draft something?
A Brewster Proclamation?
418
00:17:57,076 --> 00:17:58,659
VENIS: The one thing that would
actually be helpful
419
00:17:58,660 --> 00:18:02,246
as it happens, is if people knew
that I had access to your AI.
420
00:18:02,247 --> 00:18:04,749
Well, yeah, because yours
is so racist and shitty.
421
00:18:04,750 --> 00:18:06,000
- (SCOFFS) Come on.
- SOUPER: Oh.
422
00:18:06,001 --> 00:18:07,126
VENIS: Wow.
423
00:18:07,127 --> 00:18:09,670
No, because you
fucking people-trafficked Nilo
424
00:18:09,671 --> 00:18:10,838
and my whole division.
425
00:18:10,839 --> 00:18:12,340

for me at BILTER

- RANDALL: No, no, no, no, no.
432
00:18:25,395 --> 00:18:27,563
- What the fuck. Like-- Like--
- No. No deals, no meals,
433
00:18:27,564 --> 00:18:29,398
- no high heels, guys.
- Yeah. No deals.
434
00:18:29,399 --> 00:18:32,027
I mean-- do you even have
board approval for this?
435
00:18:32,444 --> 00:18:33,486
Hmm.
436
00:18:33,487 --> 00:18:34,695

That's not the kind
of business that slows down.
443
00:18:47,292 --> 00:18:49,752
So, what, I'm supposed
to just give that up
444
00:18:49,753 --> 00:18:53,214
- to do you a favor?
- I... I don't care.
445

cash, or stock...
446

Yeah.
447
00:18:57,845 --> 00:18:59,345
...and it's a great partnership.

in my mouth.

is that founder energy?

Ugh. God.

What'd you say?

It was just disgusting.

Emotionally speaking,
he was a straw man,

out of all of it.

Everybody wants me
to have your shit.

So, why don't you be a hero
and do the right thing?
2320
01:44:49,700 --> 01:44:51,242
Do a deal, join forces.
2321
01:44:51,243 --> 01:44:54,454
Not with Randall.
That's too much.
2322
01:44:56,373 --> 01:44:59,208
- Randall's sick.
- JEFF: Yeah, more cancer.
2323
01:44:59,209 --> 01:45:00,876
Cancer of the take.
2324
01:45:00,877 --> 01:45:03,170
If I get Randall put out
to fucking pasture,
2325
01:45:03,171 --> 01:45:04,464
can we do this deal?
2326
01:45:05,007 --> 01:45:06,049
Come inside?
2327
01:45:08,302 --> 01:45:09,428
I can come inside.
2328
01:45:11,138 --> 01:45:13,223
But I'll come for you
in the end, you know that.

it'll be a full
