So, Max, you're the only one of us who actually lives in the Bay Area, which we don't maybe love to broadcast, but I'm going to say it at the top of this show.

Have you actually heard these AI voices of Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg at traffic lights, crosswalks?

Yeah, so it seems like these voices haven't quite infiltrated San Francisco.

It seems like they're more down in Palo Alto right now, where you press a crosswalk button,

you will hear Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg telling you to cross a street or say things like,

I'm so lonely or please don't tax the rich.

But no, I haven't been graced with their beautiful voices just yet.

Okay, so that's either a great reason to avoid Palo Alto or a 100% reason to whip out

the corporate card and go take a field trip. You know, I've been meaning to do more of that boots on

the ground reporting, so I think I will. When you said that it's mostly in Silicon Valley, that was

disappointing to me in the sense that, I mean, you know, there are pedestrian friendly cities in Silicon Valley.

Like Palo Alto has like a downtown area.

Menlo Park has or Mountain View has a little bit of a downtown area.

But like most people in Silicon Valley are driving.

I don't know how many people are actually doing, you know, like walking across crossbox.

Maybe that's why these hackers were able to pull it off

was because these are crosswalks that people aren't using anyway. So I guess what you're saying is

that people might hear it if they roll down the window in their Tesla while the random stray

pedestrian attempts to cross the street. Maybe they paid someone at like a task rapid to go run out and hit the button for them.

Well, on that note, let's get into the actual show.

Hello and welcome back to Equity.
