Chapter 1: What is the highlight of today's episode?
good morning everybody and welcome to the highlight of human civilization it's called coffee with scott adams and i guarantee you've never had a better time in your life but if you'd like to take this experience up to levels that nobody can even understand with their tiny shiny human brains
All you need for that is a cup or mug or a glass, a tanker, a chalice, a stein, a canteen, a jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. Join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of dopamine at the end of the day, the thing that makes everything better. It's called a simultaneous sip. And it happens. Now, go.
Well, I don't know how your life has gone for the last 24 hours. But ever since Grok got really, really good at making pictures, there's been a nonstop memes of me dating Michelle Obama. And the images are so photorealistic that all morning long and yesterday too, I'm looking at photos going by in the locals. The people who chat on the locals feed can put in images. So we trade memes.
there are about 10 000 memes of me making it with michelle obama but here's the funny thing uh they also tried to do uh aoc and me but every time they did an aoc picture where where i was you know on as far as ai i was seemingly dating her it didn't look like we had chemistry like we even though we would be like in the picture we'd be close but just didn't look like we were that into each other.
Chapter 2: What are the implications of AI in personal relationships?
But the funny thing is the Michelle Obama pictures, almost all of them, it looks like we're really getting it off. We're really getting it off. And it makes me wonder, in the real world, it makes me wonder, given that AI is based on pattern recognition, is it possible that AI is predicting that if I ever met Michelle Obama in person, that we'd get along great? Do you think that that's possible?
Do you think AI could figure out, just with its own little pattern recognition, which kind of people I'd get along with and who I wouldn't? And is it possible that it knows I wouldn't get along with AOC? And I'm not talking about dating. I'm just talking about personal charisma and chemistry and stuff. But it looks like I would really get along with Michelle Obama. And it makes me curious.
Now I actually really want to meet her just to see if we would just have like a natural connection. I'll bet we do. I don't know if I had to bet it on it. I'd say 60, 40. Yes. That the AI is actually revealing that there's some way we'd, we'd get along. Great. Anyway,
One of the top stories is there's a school shooting and there's something about maybe trans and I'm not going to talk about any of that. I don't love talking about the trans stuff. Don't love talking about the crimes and when they're together, I'm twice as likely to not want to. I have to show, if you don't mind, the people on Locals, I'm going to show everybody some of the memes.
So here's me with Michelle Obama on a date at the Cat Cafe that doesn't exist but should. There we are. See how we're hitting it off? For some reason it puts like spots on me. All right, what else we got here? But then notice how I don't have chemistry with everybody. So here I am with Kamala Harris. No chemistry. Right? You can see it. There's just no chemistry there. All right. Now, let's see.
Find another one with Michelle. A whole bunch of them coming in just as I was talking about it. All right. Here's another one at the Cat Cafe. You tell me. Are we not having a good time? We're petting the cat. We're drinking coffee. These are good times. I'm going to have a false memory that I actually dated her. All right, here's the best one.
I almost don't want to show you this one, but it's just too good. All right, here's the best one. Now you tell me, does it look like we have chemistry? Yes. Now, it's not exactly what my body looks like, but it's still impressive. All right, so that's enough of that. How impressed are you at the quality of the images? They're kind of amazing.
Anyway, there's some science from the Universidad de Castilla de la Mancha, Spain. I know, that was a perfect pronunciation. A lot of people would have had trouble with it because it's a foreign language. But I just have a thing with languages. So, Universidad de Castillo La Mancha, that's how you do it.
Anyway, according to them, people who take a higher number of steps every day are likely to have less depressive symptoms. huh, the people who are more active have less depression. What's also true is that people who have more depression don't feel like walking. So is it backward science? And they admit that they think it might be backwards, by the way.

Chapter 3: What recent studies challenge climate change models?
So we'll find out. Do you remember, I don't know if you even noticed, There was a lot of news about how if you're using a black spatula or black, any of the black kind of kitchen utensils, you were poisoning yourself because there was stuff in that plastic that was coming off and getting in your body.
And yesterday, I almost replaced all of my black plastic kitchenware, because it's basically all I have. It's all black plastic kitchenware. And I thought, damn it. They were pretty adamant that there was some bad stuff in there. I better replace it. Well, turns out, according to Ars Technica, that... They made an error in the math and they added an extra zero and they were off by 10x.
They were off by a factor of 10. It is 10% as dangerous as they said and it wasn't exactly that dangerous. So what did the scientists do when they found out that instead of finding out that it was above the safe level, it was actually one-tenth of the safe level? So obviously, they immediately apologized.
They immediately retracted the paper and concluded that black plastic spatulas are just fine, right? Obviously. Obviously, that's what they did. No. No, what they did was they said, oh, it's right directionally. So instead of being more than you can tolerate, it's one-tenth of what you can tolerate, right? But still, it's the same point because it's one-tenth of what you can tolerate.
So they've decided that they'll keep the conclusion, but the numbers will change by 10x. But not the conclusion. Conclusion's fine. But the climate change models are all good, right? The climate change models are all good, right? In order to believe the climate change models... Sometimes I think you would have had to spend no time in real life. In real life, all of this stuff is fake. All of it.
It's all fake. Anyway. Well, apparently there's going to be lasers on drones. Somebody in North Korea, not North Korea, Hong Kong, a researcher, according to New Atlas, Found a way to put powerful lasers on drones, but they did it in a clever way because you're saying to yourself, oh, Scott, Scott, Scott, Scott. Oh, let me clear this up for you.
You are so dumb, Scott, about all things science, and here's another example of it, because you couldn't possibly support the weight of of the weight of a laser that would be powerful enough to do any damage, you'd never be able to put this big truck-sized laser on a drone, Scott, you freaking idiot. Well, they didn't do that.
They're using a mirror on the drone, and they have a ground-based laser that they would shoot up to the mirror. I'm simplifying. It's more than a mirror. I'm simplifying. They hit the mirror, and then it would form into a deadly laser beam if they aimed it correctly, which is remarkably impressive technology if they can make it work.
It's not the first time that's been thought of because there have been space-based Ideas for space-based satellites that would also reflect a laser Maybe those already exist would we know I don't know It's kind of cool idea. So you need a truck sized thing to make that work, but the truck will be on the ground The support for nuclear energy is in an all-time high. You're welcome. I

Chapter 4: What are the controversies surrounding the U.S. border wall?
But was it intentional election interference? Well, I guess we'll have to let a jury decide that, maybe. Because it definitely interfered with the election. But it's also maybe free speech. I don't know. So I'm not sure which way the court case would go. But there's certainly a claim there. I mean, that's a real claim. Then the one about...
the pollster, Ann Selzer, I guess the argument there would be you'd have to prove that she really knew that her poll results said that Kamala Harris was way ahead in Iowa, which was impossible. You'd have to say that she knew she was wrong and did it anyway, meaning she was trying to influence the election. I would say the evidence strongly suggests in a circumstantial but not a proven way
that it would be hard to explain what we saw unless it was intentional. And the argument for that is that she was such a good pollster.
If you're that good a pollster and you come up with a number that's clearly out of the field with all the other pollsters and you don't catch it and you don't at least say, we're not sure this is true, or at least put a footnote on it, like we'll see if this persists next week, but we're worried maybe there's a problem here. That would be the way to handle that. So should she be sued?
Well, I don't know. It looks crooked to me, but there's no evidence or proof, let's say. There's no proof of corruption, because if her argument is, I just made a mistake, and by the way, I'm retiring, you could argue that she retired because she knew she couldn't maintain her reputation after this. Or you could also say that the reason she's retiring is that maybe she thinks she's losing a step.
And that part of the reason for retiring is that she wasn't confident she could do her job as well as she wanted to. So whether that's true or not, it feels like it would be a pretty good defense. So I don't know that you could win on those, but the Stephanopoulos one was a real clear case. But back to that.
It seems to me that Stephanopoulos and ABC are often associated with the, let's say, the fake news matrix, meaning that they're definitely inventors of fake news and maintainers of fake news. So I think that what Stephanopoulos was doing was there was probably some meeting between And they said, we have to say, not that he paid E.G. and Carol, but that we have to make it sound more rapey.
And that they said, let's try this. Let's try libel for rape, even though he technically wasn't, but he was liable for accusing her of lying, but lying about the rape. which is kind of close to being liable for rape. It's like the cousin of it and the zip code next door, but it's not.
So what is the best way we can fool the public into thinking something that happened that didn't happen or maybe didn't happen? And I think the phrase libel for rape is not a George Stephanopoulos invention that he just liked to say.

Chapter 5: How does misinformation affect public perception?
I would say that that is professional work that the party told him to say, and then like a good party aporetic, he just repeated it and repeated it and tried to make it a thing so everybody else would repeat it as well. Instead, he got his ass sued. So maybe you got a little too close to the sun there, George. Bummer. I've heard separately that E. Jean Carroll did a magazine cover
for the Atlantic, in which the headline said, here she is wearing the same dress she was wearing when Trump sexually assaulted her in Bergdorf's. So that was the claim, that she still had the dress, she has such a good memory of the event that she remembers the clothes she was wearing, still has it, and wanted to show you wearing it to really make her story land.
But it turns out that that particular dress wasn't even in stores or available until long after the alleged sexual attack. Now, do you think the jury or the judge heard the evidence that she was claiming she was wearing a dress that did not exist at the time of the claim? Given that, the quality of her memory was mostly what was on trial.
Because if everybody agreed she had a perfect memory and was telling the truth, well, then Trump's guilty. But really, the whole trial was about, are these things you think you remember real? Clearly, a major, really major part of the case that she remembers the details, including what she was wearing, have been debunked. And I don't think the jury heard that.
so it makes me wonder um so this gets back to uh reid hoffman who funded um eugene carroll's case that might be one of the creepiest worst things that's ever happened in politics from a citizen you know short of actual violence Finding this victim and resurrecting a charge and selling it by keeping important information away from the jury. Everything about this is the worst of human activity.
This is really, really bad, dark stuff. So Reid Hoffman probably has some karma coming for him for this, if nothing else. So Biden apparently has pardoned or commuted the prison sentence of an Islamic terrorist. He's the half-brother of the billionaire Hamas leader. Let me say that again.
According to Breitbart, Joe Biden has commuted the sentence of the half-brother of the billionaire Hamas leader and he was involved also in funding the terrorism. So he wasn't just related, he was involved. He was helping fund it. Now, some speculate, and I think this is good speculation, that this is not an independent act, but rather related to some negotiations about the hostages.
You could easily imagine that that part of the negotiations are that Israel would have to free a bunch of prisoners, maybe America has some prisoners to free, and this might be it. So it's probably in the larger context of a prisoner swap thing and something that Biden's trying to get done before Trump gets it done. But this would definitely be negotiating with terrorists.
This would be negotiating with terrorists. Does that work? I used to think it worked. No, I didn't. I never thought it worked. Didn't we all know that negotiating with terrorists just never works? Ever? All right. Well, we'll see what happens. So the TikTok is scheduled to go out of existence for American customers in January unless something changes.

Chapter 6: What are the latest developments in nuclear energy support?
If you don't understand that it's intentionally wrong, then you're really going to be lost because nobody makes that many mistakes accidentally. All right. that's enough of that

Meanwhile, Derek Chauvin's lawyers, or Derek Chauvin himself maybe, is he won the right to reexamine the heart tissue and fluid samples from George Floyd's body because there was one hypothesis that somehow didn't make it to Chauvin, that there was some doctor who hypothesized Floyd had a specific kind of heart condition that would have killed him.
So if they can find that these heart tissue and samples are suggestive of that specific heart condition, then he's got a cause for maybe overturning it or getting a pardon or, I don't know, something. And I don't know if this is going to work. It feels like a bit of a long shot. But I feel like Trump's third act just needs it. It just needs it.
I think Trump needs to find out that the climate change alarm was a little overdone. He needs to find out that all the hoaxes were hoaxes. He needs to find out that the elections didn't have the integrity that people hoped for. And we need to overturn the Derek Chauvin thing. Maybe the Daniel Penny not guilty verdict was getting us moving in the right direction. We'll see.
But Trump's getting ready to run the table on all that stuff. There's a rumor, Trump says, he might be considering, not a rumor, I guess a news. He says he's considering the privatization of the post office. Unusual Wales was reporting that and somebody said the post office is a garbage delivery service. That's exactly how I see the post office.
So I've got this box at the end of my driveway that every few days I have to go and empty. And almost never, almost never is anything but garbage. It's literally just garbage. In fact, I like to check my mail on the day after garbage day. Because on garbage day, the mailbox is sitting next to my garbage. So I just open up the garbage, take out the mail, and put it in the garbage.
And that's my most efficient mail day. Now, I do check it to make sure there's nothing strange in there. But at most, I have maybe three things, three things that ever come to me in the mail that I care about. And those three things easily could turn into digital bills and emails. So I don't really have a reason for a post office. Do you?
