We call ourselves a slow unicorn. So it took us around 10 years to become a unicorn because we picked up an industry which was not revolutionized by internet. So the restaurant industry started 500 years ago. So Amazon came, revolutionized something, Uber revolutionized something. But no one did anything in terms of food. So that's where we picked our battle. There was no playbook to play on.

So we were not any XYZ of India. So we built it our own, our own learnings. Did a lot of mistakes. So we started with one brand on the high street. Then we went to dark kitchens with one brand. Then we realized people order McDonald's, never a salad from McDonald's. So each cuisine need to have one brand. So we started building multi-brand.

#487: BEST OF - Transform Your MINDSET, Transform Your LIFE with Steven Bartlett, Krista Mashore, Amjad Masad, Dileep Thazhmon, Martin Villig, Ankush Grove, Jerrod Blandino, & Colin O’Brady
And one core value of ours is to challenge the status quo. So we keep challenging the way food business is being run. So today we operate 400 kitchens from four countries, 20 brands, and we serve 10 million meals a month. That's been our journey. And recently we got Wendy's to India.

#487: BEST OF - Transform Your MINDSET, Transform Your LIFE with Steven Bartlett, Krista Mashore, Amjad Masad, Dileep Thazhmon, Martin Villig, Ankush Grove, Jerrod Blandino, & Colin O’Brady
So Wendy's, a hundred years old company, the first time in the history, they could open 150 locations in span of 18 months. So that's the kind of scale to bring on. But it took a lot of time for us to understand mistakes, go back, redraw, and a lot of backers and our investors. So none of our investors ever exited so far. So we have likes of Secura on board, Goldman Sachs, KOTU, QIA.

#487: BEST OF - Transform Your MINDSET, Transform Your LIFE with Steven Bartlett, Krista Mashore, Amjad Masad, Dileep Thazhmon, Martin Villig, Ankush Grove, Jerrod Blandino, & Colin O’Brady
So it's a long journey, and that's why we call ourselves a slow unicorn.

#487: BEST OF - Transform Your MINDSET, Transform Your LIFE with Steven Bartlett, Krista Mashore, Amjad Masad, Dileep Thazhmon, Martin Villig, Ankush Grove, Jerrod Blandino, & Colin O’Brady
So one very obvious is love for food. So I love food. And then the other thing is, I think the overall mission is still McDonald's is the world's most valuable food company at 130 billion. We are just a billion dollar. So we have a lot of canvas to be covered, a lot of things to be done. We recently entered Saudi and we know how big Saudi is a market.

So we just entered and have three kitchens here. So ambition is to be the largest in the world. We are already largest, but keep growing and have like 50,000 internet restaurants, around 2,000 locations, and have all the cuisines on board, which we make and serve to our customers.

They're able to simulate what a human can do. So the reason you were able to order the water there is because it was trained NSF data. That includes clicking on DoorDash and ordering water.

I still think it's a tool. This is power that is there to be harnessed by entrepreneurs. You know, I think that the world is going to get disrupted, right? And, you know, this post-war world that we created where you go through life, you go through 12 years of education, you get to college and you just check the boxes, you get a job. We can already see that fractures with that.

This American dream is perhaps no longer there. And so I think the world has already changed. But what are the opportunities? Obviously, there are downsides. The opportunities is for the first time, access to opportunity is equal. And I do think there's going to be more inequality. And the reason for this inequality is because actually Steve Jobs made this analogy.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
It's like the best taxi driver in New York is like 20% better than the average taxi driver. The best programmer can be 10x better. We say the 10x engineer. Now the variance will be in the 1000x. The best entrepreneur that can leverage those agents could be a thousand times better than someone who doesn't have the grit, doesn't have the skill, doesn't have the ambition, right?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
So that will create a world. Yes, there's massive access to opportunity, but there are people who will take it.

Can I give you a quick introduction here, like the optimistic view? OpenAI invented the first version of GPT came out in 2019. 2020 was GPT-2. And so OpenAI, now they get a lot of criticism and lawsuit from Elon Musk that they're no longer open source. They used to be.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
The reason is in GPT-2, they said, we are no longer going to open source this technology because it's going to create opportunities for abuse, such as influencing elections, stealing grandma's credit card, and so on and so forth. Wouldn't you say, Brett, that it is kind of surprising how little abuse we've seen so far?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yes, if your job is as routine as it comes, it's gone in the next couple of years. But it's going to create new opportunities for wealth creation.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
So I was trying to make the point that OpenAI has been sort of wrong about the sort of how big of a potential for harm it is. Like, you know, I think we would have heard about it in the news, like the sort of how much harm it's done. And maybe, you know, some of it is working in the shadows.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
But like the few incidents that we've heard about where, you know, the cause of LLMs, large language models, the technology that's powering ChatGPT, has been huge headliners, like New York Times talked about this kid that was perhaps goaded by some kind of chat software that helps teenagers to be less lonely into suicide, which is tragic.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And obviously, these are the kind of safety and abuse issues that we want to we want to worry about. But these are kind of these isolated incidents. And we do have open source large language models. Obviously, the thing that everyone talks about is DeepSeek. DeepSeek is coming from China. So what is DeepSeek's incentive? Perhaps the incentive is to Destroy the AI industry in the US.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
When they released DeepSeek, the market tanked. The market for NVIDIA, the market for AI, and all of that. But there is an incentive to open source. Meta is open sourcing Lama. Lama is another AI similar to ChatGPT. The reason they're open sourcing Lama, and Zuckerberg just says that out loud, is basically They don't want to be beholden to open AI. They don't sell AI as a service.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
They use it to build products. And there's this concept in business called commoditize your complement. Because you need AI as a technology to run your service, the best strategy to do is to open source it. So these market forces are going to create conditions that I think are actually beneficial. So I'll give you a few examples.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
One is, first of all, the AI companies are motivated to create AI that is safe so that they can sell it. Second, there are security companies investing in AIs that allows them to protect from the sort of malicious acting of AI. And so you have the free market, and we've always had that. But generally, as humanity, we've been able to leverage the same technology to protect against the abuse.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
So what I was saying there is even if I'm wrong, That you can actually create a unbounded, seemingly conscious artificial intelligence that can entirely replace humans and can act autonomously in a way that even humans can't act and can't coordinate across different AIs, different data centers to take over the world.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
So the definition of AGI is artificial general intelligence, meaning that AI can acquire new skills efficiently in the same way that humans can acquire skills. Right now, AIs don't acquire skills efficiently. They require a massive amount of energy and compute, entire data set of compute to acquire these skills. And I think there's, again, a limit on how general intelligence can get.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
I think for most of the time, it will be lagging in terms of what humans are capable of doing. The singularity is based on this concept of intelligence explosion. So once you create an AGI, once you create an artificial general intelligence, that intelligence will be able to modify its own source code and create the next version that is much more intelligent.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And the next version creates the next version and the next version. for infinity, right?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Perhaps within milliseconds at some point, right? Because it might invent new computing substrate and all of that. Perhaps it will use quantum computing and And so then you have this intelligence explosion in a way that is impossible to predict how the world is going to be. And what I'm saying is this is sort of like an end of time story. Like how would you even prepare for that? Mm-hmm.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
So if that's coming, like, why would I spend my time preparing for, I think it's unlikely to happen.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yeah, but I'd rather prepare, what I was saying there, I'd rather prepare for the more likely world in which we have access to tremendous power, but the world is not ending and humans are still important. Right.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
I mean, in my vision of the world, we're in the creative seat. We're sitting there where we are controlling swarms of intelligent being to do our job. You know, the way you run your business, for example, you're sitting at a computer, you have an hour to work. Yeah. And you're going to launch like a thousand – SDR, sales representative, to go grab as many leads as possible.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And you're generating a new update on Replit for your website here. And then on this side, you have an AI that's crunching data about your existing business to figure out how to improve it. And these AIs are somehow all coordinating together. And I am trying to privilege Like this is my mission is to build tools for people. I'm not building tools for agents. And agents are a tool.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And so ultimately, not only do I think that humans have a privileged position in the world and in the universe, we don't know where consciousness is coming from. We don't really have the science to explain it. I think humans are special. That's one side is my belief that humans are special in the world. And another side, which I understand that the technology today
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And I think for the foreseeable future is going to be a function of us training data. So there was this whole idea of like, what if ChatGPT generates pathogens? Well, have you trained it on pathogens?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yeah, all of those. And what do they do? Maybe this is useful for the audience. I think if your job is as routine as it comes, your job is gone in the next couple of years. So meaning, in those jobs, for example, quality assurance jobs, data entry jobs. You're sitting in front of a computer and you're supposed to click and type things in a certain order.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yeah, I think the healthcare ecosystem is hard to predict because of regulation. And again, there's so many limiting factors on how this technology can permeate the economy because of regulations and people's willingness to take it. But unregulated jobs that are purely text in, text out. If your job, you get a message and you produce some kind of artifact that's probably text or images.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!

So I started programming at a very young age. I built my first business when I was a teenager. I used to go to internet cafes and program there. And I realized that they don't have software to manage the business. I was like, oh, why didn't you create accounts? Why don't I have a server? It took me two years to build that piece of software.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
But also, these people are actually already transitioning to training AIs. So there's going to be a massive industry around training AIs.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Well, no, you have to continuously acquire new skills. And this is what I'm talking about. This is, again, if AI is a function of its data, then you need increasingly more data. And by the way, we ran out of internet data.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And that sort of embedded in my mind this idea that, hey, there's a lot of people in the world with really amazing ideas, especially in the context where they live in. that allows them to build businesses. However, the main source of friction between an idea and software, or call it an idea and wealth creation, is infrastructure, is physical infrastructure, is meaning a computer in front of you,
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
They're so optimistic about LLMs and how they're going to evolve. Yes, it's amazing. It's amazing technology. I think it raised global IQ, like 800 million people. 800 million people are that much more intelligent and emotionally intelligent as well. I know people who previously were very coarse and they kind of robbed people the wrong way. They would say things in not so polite way.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And then suddenly they started putting what they're saying through ChatGPT in order to kind of make it kinder and nicer. And they're more liked now. And so not only is it making us more intelligent, but also it allows us to be the best version of ourselves. And the scenario that you're talking about, I don't know what's wrong with that. Like, you know, I would want less agency in certain places.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
It is an internet connection. It is the set of tools and skills that you need to build that. If we make it so that anyone who has ideas, who wants to solve problems, will be able to do it. I mean, imagine the kind of world that we could live in where no one can be – anyone who has merit, anyone who can think clearly, anyone who can generate a lot of ideas – can generate wealth.

Can I mention a story here? There's an entrepreneur that uses Replit in a similar way. His name is Billy Howell. You can find him on YouTube, on the internet. He would go to Upwork and he would find what people are asking for, different requests for certain apps, technologies.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Then he would take what they're asking for, put it into Replit, make it an application, call them, tell them, I already have your application. Would you pay $10,000 for it? So that's sort of an arbitrage opportunity that's there right now. That's not arbitrage. It's that. How is that?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
I mean, that's an amazing world to live in, right? Anywhere in the world. So with Replit, the company that I started in 2016, the idea was like, okay, coding is difficult. How do we solve coding? And we built every part of the process, the hosting, the code editor. The only missing thing was the AI agents, right?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yeah, and speaking of adaptive systems, one of the adaptations that will happen is people will seek humans and will seek proof of humanity.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
This is a good thing. I think modes are a bad thing. Let me make the argument there. So everyone's looking for modes. For example, one of the more significant modes is network effects. So you can't compete with Facebook or Twitter because... To move people from Facebook or Twitter, it's the collective action problem. You need to move them all at once.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Because if one of them moves, then the network is not valuable. They'll go back. So you have this chicken and egg problem. Let's say that we have a more decentralized way of doing social networks. That will remove the power of Twitter to kind of censor. And I think you're at the other end of censorship, right? And so part of my optimism about humanity is that generally there's self-correction.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Over the past two years, we've been working on this AI agent that you can just, since ChatGPT, this revolution with Gen AI, and you can just speak your ideas into existence. This starts sounding religious. This is like the gods, the myths that humans have created. They used to imagine a world where You can be everywhere and anywhere at once. That's sort of the internet.

Democracy is a self-correcting system. Free markets are largely self-correcting systems. There are obvious problems with free markets that we can discuss. But take... Health, you know, there is obesity epidemic. This period of time when companies, you know, ran loose kind of making this sugary, salty, fatty kind of snacks and everyone gorged on them and everyone got very, you know, unhealthy.

And now you have Whole Foods everywhere. Today, people in Silicon Valley, they don't go to bars at all. They go to running clubs. That's how you meet. That's how you go find a date. You go to running clubs. And so there was a shift that happened because there was a reaction. Obviously, cigarettes is another example. You know, you were talking about phones and our addiction to phones.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And I see a shift right now. Like in my friend circle... Like people who are constantly kind of on their phones is already kind of frowned upon. And they don't want to hang out with you because you're constantly staring on your phone. So there's always these reactions.

Yes. But again, it's no pain, no gain. I mean, we're going to go through a period of disruption. And I think at the other end, the old, you know, sort of oppressive systems will be broken. And we're going to create perhaps a fair world, but it's going to have its own problems.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
It's hard to say because, you know, there's this concept of limiting factors. Like, you know, there is regulation. There's the appetite of people today. For example, the healthcare system is very resistant to innovation because of regulation, you know. And that's a bad thing.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
I fundamentally disagree with that. Which part do you disagree with? I disagree that, first of all, that humans would be happy with UBI, right? I think that, you know, a core value of humans, and be curious about the evolutionary reasons, is we want to be useful.

I'll make the case that everything that we've discussed here, all the negative things around loneliness, around meaning, they're already here.

Agents are when you give it a request and they can work indefinitely until they achieve a goal or they run into an error and they need your help. It's an AI bot that has access to tools. Those tools are access to a web browser like Operator, access to a programming environment, say like Replit. access to credit cards. The more tools you give the agent, the more powerful it is.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And so there's been a lot of experiment around pedagogy, around how to configure the classroom that have resulted in very marginal improvements. There's only one intervention, and this has been reproduced many times, that creates two sigma, two standard deviation positive outcomes in education, meaning you're better than 99% of everyone else. And that is one-on-one tutoring.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Of course, there's all these considerations around security and safety and all of that stuff. But the most important thing is that AI agent will determine when it finished executing. Today, AI agents can run for anywhere between 30 seconds to 30 minutes. There's a recent paper that came out that's showing that every seven months, the number of minutes that the agent can run for is doubling.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
One-on-one tutoring. Yeah. And by the way, if you look, someone also did a survey of all the geniuses, the understanders of the world, and found that they all had one-on-one tutoring. They all had someone in their lives that took interest in them and tutored them. So what can create one-on-one tutoring optionally for every child in the world?

Is that synthesis?

How do your kids are three and five?

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
My children are very young, but we already do use AI. And I sit down with them in front of Repl. And we generate ideas and make games. And I would say what Brett said about generality is very important. The ability to pivot and kind of learn skills quickly. Being generative is very, very important. having a fast pace of generating ideas and iterating of those ideas.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
We sit down in front of ChatGPT, and my kid imagines scenario. What if there's a cat on the moon? And then what if the moon is made of cheese? And what if there's a mouse inside it? And so we keep generating these variations of these different ideas. And I find that makes them more imaginative and creative.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
So we're at like 30 minutes now. In seven months, we're going to be at an hour, then two hours. Pretty soon, we're going to be at days. And at that point, AI agent is doing labor, is doing kind of human-like labor. And actually, OpenAI's new model, O3, beat the expectation. So it sort of doubled coherence over long horizon tasks in just three or four months.

So we're in this massive, and I mean, this looks, this exponential graph, you know, that shows you the massive trend we're on.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
The first thing I would do is teach people about these systems, whether it's programs on the TV or outreach or what have you, just trying to get people to understand how ChatGPT works, how these algorithms work. And as the new jobs arrive, I think there's going to be an opportunity for people to be able to detect that this job requires this set of skills. And I have this kind of experience.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And although my experience are potentially outdated, I can repurpose that experience to do that job. I'll give you an example. A teacher, his name is Adil Khan. You know, he started using at the time GPT-3 and felt like it does amazing work as a tools for teachers or even potentially a teacher itself. So he learned a little bit of coding and he went on Repl.it and he built this company.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And just two years later, they're worth hundreds of millions of dollars. Obviously, not everyone will be able to create businesses of that scale. But because you have an experience in a certain domain, you'll be able to build the next iteration of that using technology. So even if your job was displaced... You'll be able to figure out what potentially comes after that.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
So I think people's expertise that they built, I don't think they're all for waste, even if your job went away.

Something amusing, I don't know if it's exactly a counterpoint, but during COVID especially and through the recent technological change, some people have started living closer to the more ancestral environment. So people whose jobs are online, some of my friends went and built communities online.

Like collectives where they, you know, live and they create farms and they eat and they have like an email job. They do their email jobs for five hours and go out and they all have children. And it's a fascinating life. And there was so much rethinking in Silicon Valley about how we live.

And there's a bunch of startups that are trying to create cities where they're like, okay, we know that we're suffering because our cities are not really walkable. And there's so many reasons why we're suffering. First, we're not getting the movement. Second, there's a social aspect of walkable city where you're able to interact with people.

You'll make friends by just happening to be in the same place as others. Let's actually build walkable cities. And if we want to transport faster, we'll have these self-driving cars on the perimeter of the city that are going around. And I think there are ways in which technology can afford us

One of those, you mentioned the truth, the problem of truth. Would you say, just a thought experiment, someone today, like an average person, college educated person, are they more propagandized or led astray than someone in Soviet Russia?

First thing, question, is Meta incentivized to solve this problem?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yes. And so Meta is probably actively working on AIs. And again, it's going to be a cat and mouse game, like every abuse that happens out there. So I think that the market will naturally respond to things like that. And the same way that we installed antiviruses, as annoying as they are, I think we'll install
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett

Well, first of all, the first thing you need to do, you need to understand, is that this moment of time is the least competitive moment. If you understand how to use these tools, you can start making money tomorrow. I see countless examples of people making thousands of dollars with these hustles that I talked about.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
or building businesses that generates millions of dollars in the first couple of months of existence. So I would say start moving now, start building things. So it's an unprecedented time of wealth creation. Clearly, at some point, as the market gets more efficient, as more and more people understand how to use these tools, there's less potential for creating these massive businesses quickly.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And we've seen this. The dawn of the internet or dawn of the web was a lot easier to create Facebook than it is now than we had mobile. And for three, four, five years, it was very easy to create massive businesses, and then it became harder being just at the edge of what's possible. is going to be very, very important over the next couple of years.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And that gets me really excited because the entrepreneurs who are paying attention are going to be having the most amount of fun, but they're also going to be able to make a lot of money. How many applications have been built on Replit to date? I can talk about the millions of things that have been built since we started the company, but just since September when we launched Replit Agents,
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
There's been about 3 million applications built purely in natural language with no coding at all, purely natural language. Of those, I think 300,000, 400,000 of them were deployed in a real – the site was deployed and it is having – people are using it, some kind of business, some kind of internal tool.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
An internal tool?

$25. $25.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
I don't think we've spent a lot of time talking about autonomous weapons. This is the thing that really worries me. And the thing that worries people about AI is this idea is that it is this emergent system and there's no one thing behind it. And it can act in a way that's unpredictable and not really guided by humans. I also think it's true of corporations, of governments.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And so I think individual people can often have the best intentions, but the collective can land on doing things in a way that is harmful or morally repugnant. And I think we talked about China versus the US, and that creates a certain race dynamics where they're both incentivized to cut corners and potentially do harmful things.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And in the world of geopolitics, um, and wars, you know, what really scares me is, is autonomous weapons. And what does it scare you? Because, uh, You know, you can imagine autonomous drones being trained on someone's face and you can send a swarm of drones and they can be this sort of autonomous killing assassination machine.

And it can sort of function as a country versus country technology in the world of war, which is still crazy. But it can also become a tool for governments to subjugate the citizens. And people think we're... We're safe in the West, but I think the experience with COVID showed that even the systems in the West can very quickly become draconian.

I mean, what happened in Canada with the truckers' sort of protests where they froze their bank account by virtue of just being there.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yeah, I think all of that is a real concern. Unlike Mustafa, I don't think containment is possible. Part of the reason why this game theoretic system of competition between the US, China, corporations, individuals, makes it so that this technology is already available. you know, as I was already out really hard to put it back in the, in the bag.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
So the problem with that chain of thinking is that it might lead to an oppressive system. Yeah. There is one of the, say, doomers or philosophers of AI, which I respect his work. His name is Nick Bostrom. And he was trying to think of ways in which we can contain AI. And the thing that he came up with is perhaps more oppressive than something that AI would come up with.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
It's like total surveillance state. You need total surveillance on compute, on people's computers, on people's ideas to not invent AI or AGI. It's like taking the guns or something or... Right, exactly. I mean, there's always this problem of containing any sort of technology is that you do need oppression and draconian policies to do that.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
You know, we talked about the... birthright crisis. And I think a more generalized problem there is creating virtualized environments via VR, where everyone is living in their own created universe. And it's so enticing. And even Create simulates work and simulates struggle. such that you don't really need to leave this world. And so every one of us will be solipsistic, similar to the Matrix.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Ready Player One. We're all kind of plugged. Even worse than a Ready Player One, at least that's a massively networked environment. I'm talking about AI simulating everything for us. And therefore, you're literally in the matrix, you know?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yes. And so, I mean, are you familiar with the Fermi's paradox? No, I'm not. So Fermi's paradox is the question of a professor, his name is Fermi. He asked the question, If the universe is that vast, then where are the aliens? The fact that humans exist, you can deduce that other civilizations exist. And if they do exist, then why don't we see them?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And then that spurred a bunch of Fermi solutions. So there's, I don't know, you can find hundreds of solutions on the internet. One of them is the sort of house cat thought experiments where actually aliens exist, but they kind of put us in an environment like the Amish in a certain time and do not expose us to what's going on out there. So they, we're pets.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Things that I think is potentially a solution to the Fermi's paradox and one of the saddest outcomes is that civilizations progress until they invent technology that will lock us into infinite pleasure and infinite simulation such that we don't have the motivation to go into space to seek out the exploration of potentially other alien civilizations.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
And perhaps that is a determined outcome of humanity or like a highly likely outcome of any species like humanity. We like pleasure. Pleasure and pain is the main motivators. And so if you create an infinite pleasure machine.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!

I think we live in the most interesting time in human history. So for the single mother that's listening, for someone who wouldn't be the stereotype of a tech bro, don't assume that you can't do this stuff. It's never been more accessible today within your work. You can be an entrepreneur. You don't have to take massive risk to go create a business, quit your job and go create a business.

There are countless examples. We have a user who's a product manager at a large real estate business. And he built something that created 10% lift in conversion rates, which generated millions and millions of dollars of that business. And that person became a celebrity at that company and became someone who is lifting everyone else up and teaching them how to use these tools.

And obviously, that is really great for anyone's career. And you're going to get a promotion. Your example of building... a piece of software for your family, for your kids to improve and to learn more, to be better kids, as an example of being an entrepreneur in your family. So I really want people to break away from this concept of entrepreneurship being, this is your podcast, Diary of a CEO.

AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
You started this podcast. by talking to CEOs, I assume, right? And over time, it changed to everyone can be a CEO. Everyone is some kind of CEO in their life. And so I think that we have unprecedented access to tools for that vision to actually come to reality.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Yeah. So I tend to be an optimist. And part of the reason is because I try to understand the limits of the technology. What can it do is anything that we can, any sort of set of human data that we can train it on. What can it not do is anything that humans don't know what to do because we don't have the training data.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
AI AGENTS EMERGENCY DEBATE: These Jobs Won't Exist In 24 Months! Containment Has Failed, We Must Prepare For What's Coming!
Of course, it's super smart because it integrates massive amount of knowledge that you wouldn't be able to read, right? It also much faster. It can run through a massive amount of computation that your brain can't even comprehend. Because of all of that, they're smart. They can take actions. But we know the limits of what they can do because we train them.
