Hey Market Mondays Family!


Welcome back to another clip of Market Mondays! In this insightful discussion, we dive deep into the rapidly evolving world of artificial intelligence and robotics. With AI technology advancing faster than ever, it's crucial to understand its implications on our lives, jobs, and society as a whole.


Our special guest, 19 Keys, alongside hosts Rashad Bilal, Ian Dunlap, and Troy Millings, explore some of the most pressing questions around AI and robotics:


- *The Future of Humanoid Robots:* 19 Keys discusses Elon Musk's ambitious plans to make humanoid robots his next trillion-dollar business. He emphasizes that while the technology is here, the real challenge is getting society accustomed to these robots. We examine the potential for humanoid robots to take over mundane, task-oriented jobs and the impact this may have on various industries and employment landscapes.


- *Regulations and Market Leaders:* The conversation touches on how the government is likely to turn to giants like OpenAI and Microsoft for AI regulations. These regulations could potentially stifle small businesses from competing in the rapidly growing AI market. What does this mean for innovation and the entrepreneurial spirit?


- *Human vs. Robot:* 19 Keys believes that as robots take on factory work and low-paying jobs, humans need to delve deeper into what it means to be human. How can we prepare for a future where AI and robots are ubiquitous without losing the essence of human touch and creativity?


- *AI Companionship:* Rashad and Troy share fascinating insights from their trip to Davos, where they encountered AI companionship apps designed to combat loneliness. From home robots performing simple tasks to advanced AI companions providing friendship and support, this sector is set to explode. Could this be the next big thing in AI technology?


- *Embracing Technology Without Fear:* Ian Dunlap emphasizes that automation and AI are inevitable. Instead of fearing these advancements, we should focus on finding ways to integrate and utilize them to enhance our lives and businesses. Drawing parallels to the iPhone's revolution in the late 2000s, Ian highlights that those who adapt will thrive in this new era.


Join us in this thought-provoking discussion as we explore the exciting, yet challenging, future of AI and robotics. This episode is packed with insights, predictions, and strategies to help you stay ahead in this rapidly evolving landscape. Whether you're an entrepreneur, an investor, or just curious about AI, this conversation is essential viewing.

Let's Square handle the back end so you can keep pushing your vision forward. The conversation is starting to shift a little bit as people becoming more aware with AI,

and it's going into the world of robotics. Like you just talked about large language models machine learning, but robotics is kind of picking up steam around conversations. We saw what happened with Tesla. Open AI has now created a humanoid that has come into inside the BMW plant and it's taking some jobs. How fast and how abruptly do

you think humanoid or human robot? Well, the humanoid robot will be implemented and how I shouldn't say afraid, but how aware should we be that this is the next evolution of it.

Speaker 2

Well, you know, Elon Musk wants that to be his next you know, trillion dollar business right now. And the thing about the humanoid robots is the technology is already here. I think the process of adaptation is getting people to a point of normalcy with them, right you know, of course, you know, knocking out all of the bugs and the tinkering issues that's going to come along with you know,

adopting robots in these environments. But we really looking at the next two to three years right for the rolling out of it and seeing how people respond and then

the regulations that's going to come along with it. I think one of the bigger things when it comes to the robot, when it comes to AI period, is looking at regulation and how it's going to hurt small businesses because the people that the government is calling on to do the regulations is going to be the open AI is going to be the Microsoft, going to be these large companies that are building out these large language models and these large AI models, and they've already trained it

on your data, they trained it on YouTube data, they trained it on all this data and then they're going to regulate it so that the average engineer coder can then go do the same thing, so that they won't be able to compete. So as we go into robots, yes, the robots are going to come and take mundane tasks oriented jobs, right, and quite frankly, in a lot of different situations they should. I think humans need to augment themselves and get deeper into what it means to be human.

But in some of these things is going to get dystopian because they don't really care about people. It's a profit based system. They're going to be doing a lot of factory work, right, They're going to be doing a lot of low paying job work. And you know, Donald Trump called it black and Hispanic jobs. You know what I'm saying, The robots are going to be the ones come and taking those black and Hispanic jobs. The AI is going to be the one come and taking those

black and Hispanic jobs. So you ain't got to ware about no immigrant to anything else, you feel me. The thing that you should be focused oning is how do you prepare yourself in a future where AI and robots and quantum computers exist? Because focusing on slowing it down is not going to change anything. Focusing on preparing for it right, developing the skills, thinking about the new businesses, the new services that will be needed in that future.

Humans will always be needed, right, We don't even want the future to wear it's a complete matrix and machines running everything. Humans will always be needed. I think that's the thing that we need to focus on. But yes, robots are here, right, And for me, thinking about the future is only prepared for it. It's not being scared of it. It's not having this fearful idea of it.

None of that. We have to decolonize our minds of the future and asks ourselves what do we want it to be, because then we also determine the future by planning for it. So how would we use robots is the question?

Speaker 3

Right?

Speaker 2

What value could they bring to us? And I'm not in a deep necessity for robots because I think that the task that robots do are you know, very factory and they're going to be super expensive. So the average person is not going to be using those type of robots. Average person's going to be using home robots. And I looked at the CS show and looking at the ones that they're rolling out. They're talking about simple tasks within the home that people are going to be using the

robots for. People are going to be using companion robots right for loneliness. That's happening with people today, and I think that's probably going to be one of the biggest use cases for the average person because loneliness is on the rise. The average mail out here is lonely. They ain't got nobody, right, and so you know, I see people becoming friends with robots and building companionship and that being one of the biggest retail aspects of the robot industry.

Speaker 4

That's a fact. We'll bring Ian up for a question. But while we bring waiting for Ian. You know, it's crazy you say that becausehen We we was in Davos.

They had this guy who dropped out of Harvard and he created an uh an app for companionship AI companionship and he received raised a bunch of money in his seed round and that was the whole purpose of it is as far as being a companion he kind of explained why AI companionship was needed, and it was so yeah, no matter how you feel about it, that's something that's real. But Ian you did, and.

Speaker 3

They got our only fans Ai companion app already. Yeah.

Speaker 1

I think it's called uh. I think it's called slow. I wrote it down in my notes when I saw it. I said, I'm gonna remember this one. But it's spelled with an X so x O U L.

Speaker 3

It's on you man, keys, my brother, how are you? I wish I could uh, you know my action was a little bit better. Man, Good to have you here. But but I do think automation, of course is needed. We talked about this before, maybe two or three years ago, and like you said, I don't think we need to fear.

We need to find out where to use it because the truth is that these software and systems and hardware, they're going to be here regardless, and there are going to be the next sectors that really dominate the mark. I don't know what a open Ai would be worth when it goes public, but it will easily enter that

top ten, top eleven. So we just have to find a way to be able to use it and integrated, because they're going to make sure that that technology is here in our lives the same way that the iPhone came in in two thousand seven eight nine and dominated our lives from there.

Speaker 4

That's a fact.

Speaker 5

An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United States

Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you were here illegally, your next you will be fine nearly one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned and deported, you will never return. But if you register using our CBP home app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally. Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,

border and families will be protected. Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security,
