Chapter 1: What is Coffee with Scott Adams?
Good morning, everybody, and welcome to the highlight of human civilization. It's called Coffee with Scott Adams.
It's the best thing that'll ever happen to you, 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 tank of Chelsea Stein, a canteen jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of
a dopamine of the day, the thing that makes everything better today with a little bit of oxytocin for free. It's called the simultaneous sip and it happens now. Insanely good. Well, here's an interesting thing. According to Steve Newman on X, uh, So someone needs to try this. Pick 1,000 published scientific papers at random and then have AI look at them for errors.
What would happen if you took 1,000 published peer-reviewed scientific papers and then just had AI check them for errors? Well, I think I told you that there was a study about black ladles and black kitchen utensils. The black plastic would leach off. And then it turns out they just made a calculation error. They were off by a factor of 10. It wasn't that dangerous after all.
Well, it turns out that AI could have spotted that. So if they had run it through AI, it would have spotted it right away. And then Mark Andreessen, seeing Steve Newman's comment about that, said he would, if somebody wanted to do this as scale, he would fund it as scale. In other words, instead of testing a thousand random scientific papers. Why don't you do all of them?
Just find out how many mistakes there are in the whole thing. Yeah, it would be far more interesting to know the entire situation than to know that statistically half of them are bad. I'd rather know which half, at least in terms of the calculations. So I think the only thing you would find would be errors in calculations or something like that. All right. Oh, here's some good news.
According to the atmospheric chemistry and physics, whatever that is. Did you know that back in 2020, there was regulations? Regulations were introduced to remove the sulfur content from shipping fuel. So that's great. And I guess it worked out because now there is way less sulfur being spewed into the air. So that's all good news, right? Oh, wait.
It turns out that removing the sulfur from the air is going to greatly contribute to global warming. What? So there's no such thing as a good idea. You know, somebody's like, I got an idea. We have all this sulfur coming out of the fuel from the ships at sea. What if we had some regulations to reduce that sulfur? And now they did. Sounded like a good idea.
Nobody wants to be breathing all that sulfur. Except that it looks like it might have a big effect on climate change and kill us all. No, it won't kill you. But here's what I ask every time I see something like this. So are you telling me that this was not in the climate models? And if it wasn't in the climate models, what assumption do you make?

Chapter 2: How does AI check for errors in scientific papers?
Do you know why I'd want to wear them? Because I already wear glasses, so nobody would know. Yeah. So if you already wear glasses, and I've tried LASIK, looked into LASIK, but it isn't for me. It doesn't work. It wouldn't work on my particular situation. So if I can't get rid of my glasses, the next best thing is to put all of you in glasses.
This is almost as good as when I was in what, maybe 20s or maybe my 30s. And I was prematurely balding. And then suddenly cool people were shaving their heads. And I was like, wait a minute. Are you telling me that I could just shave my head? cut it short and it wouldn't look so terrible because famous people are doing it. And sure enough, maybe it'll happen with glasses.
Did you know that Florida has some kind of law that goes into effect January 1st, where porn purveyors would have to ask for your driver's license to be uploaded in order to watch porn. So if you live in Florida, you're not going to be able to get Pornhub anymore because Pornhub didn't want to make that change just for Florida.
And I ask you, how many of you, well, it's the wrong crowd because obviously nobody who's watching this has ever even looked at porn even once. But if you know anybody, like a family member or something who looks at porn, how many people would be willing to upload their driver's license minutes before they were going to look at porn?
So that your driver's license could be definitively linked with every image that you look at. Who in the world would look at that? Well, here's something that they don't report in the news. I don't know if any of you have noticed, but porn has practically been eliminated from the Internet. So little by little, companies are trying to clamp down It's almost non-existent.
My guess is that the only porn that you'll ever see is virtual reality. I think we're, I'll make a prediction, three years away from no human porn on the internet. It'll all just be virtual reality. Won't be real people. That's what I think. And will you have to show your ID? Well, not if you're using AI to make your own.

Chapter 3: What unexpected effects do sulfur regulations have on climate?
So in three years, you'll be able to just say, hey, AI, I have these interests. Make me some clips, and it will. So yeah, Pornhub is basically dead in the long run. The company that makes robots called Figure, they now have their Figure version 0.2, and they've got one that's operational on a BMW production line. So this is an actual humanoid robot that already has a job.
Now, I think it's more prototype, and they're making sure that they can tweak it to make it work, but it's sort of working on the BMW line. But here's the big deal. You know how I always tease the AI and robot business? Because for my entire life, robots were always slow. Even if you just saw them in a fictional movie where it wasn't even a real robot, they would always move very slowly.
And I always thought, what is that all about? Like, why can't a robot move faster? So I guess this new one is 400% faster. It's not up to human speed yet, but getting close. That does suggest that it can get to human speed at some point. And it's a game changer. So apparently, you know, if you want to mark the date on your calendar...
This is just about the day in history that a humanoid robot went to work. It just worked on an assembly line. We're there. So you know how you imagine this all your life? You imagine someday, is it just going to be a humanoid robot on that assembly line? Here it is. Today's the day. All right. Did you know that a Chinese company...
seems to be the dominant manufacturer of home internet routers that have been linked to cyber attacks. So there's a worry that the dominant, you know, the primary home internet router in the United States is susceptible to hackers or China's control. And according to the Wall Street Journal, there's some talk about banning them. It's the top recommended choice, I guess, on Amazon.
How in the world did we get to this point where the majority of internet connections in the United States run through Chinese equipment that isn't secure? We're finding this out today? Today? Here's another thing I found out today. I was reading a seemingly well-informed post on X. It was at the Something Squirrel, a guy who reports a lot about Ukraine.
But he was talking about how the United States has no defense for any airborne attacks and couldn't possibly ever have one. But we've tried lots of times. Basically, we're totally vulnerable for anything that comes in the air. And I don't think we have really anything that would stop drones or missiles or almost anything. Basically, the country is too big. Borders are too big.
You're not going to stop a swarm of anything. So we're very vulnerable. I'm not sure I knew that as much as I know it now. Well, you may have heard that a top aide, former top aide, to the Harris campaign said that it doesn't make sense for Democrats to do interviews with the New York Times and the Washington Post.
And the reason is that the readers of those magazines are already going to vote Democrat, or those newspapers. So somehow, the New York Times and the Washington Post made themselves irrelevant to national politics.

Chapter 4: How is Congress handling the Omnibus budget?
So if you run an election that looks very much like it was rigged, I don't know that it was rigged, but I know that the pattern recognition of the public, the Republican public, were quite sure that it looked rigged. So you create an election that looks rigged, And then you know there's a protest and it's going to be at a certain place and you've got plenty of time to have sufficient security.
But you decide not to for whatever reason. Maybe a mistake, maybe intentional. But if you run an election that looks for all the world like it looks rigged, even if it wasn't, and then you don't have proper security in the one place that people are going to go to that you know and they're going to be really mad about the election...
I would say that the government is responsible for everything that got broken, everything that was defaced, and all the violence. Now, on top of it, the people who are violent have responsibility. They definitely have responsibility. But they've also served some time.
I'm guessing maybe everybody who did something violent has probably served a little time by now or lost all of their money paying for lawyers, one or the other. So I feel like they all have to be pardoned no matter what they did because the process was so corrupt that allowing some people who did some genuine crimes, even including violence,
to either get out early or at least get out of the process and not be pursued further. I think that's the right thing to do. So meanwhile, Elizabeth Warren showing us that Democrats only have one role in life, which is making the country worse off. And if there's ever a good idea or something that's working, they're going to try really hard to stop it.
So what's one of the best things happening in the country? Well, in my opinion, one of the best things happening in the country is Elon Musk and Doge and his close connection to Trump and the fact that they get along and seem to be on the same page. So what does Elizabeth Warren want to do? She wants to make that impossible.
So she wants some kind of stringent conflict of interest agreement that would say that Musk can't be involved in a certain set of things. But What would really happen if such a conflict of interest document got created? Well, let me tell you. Elon Musk has his fingers in every part of America.
So basically, he would either be completely excluded from everything, because there would always be some part of his business or something he's doing that has some conflict of interest with everything, with everything. And so he just wouldn't be able to do it. Or if he did it, they'd have a reason to jail him or go after him.
So it looks to me like the Democrats have gone from being some kind of just opposition party to how can we make everything not work? Oh, let's add some DEI. That will make every company fail and the government fail. Let's stop the two most effective people in the United States, Musk and Trump, from working effectively together.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of funding the Global Engagement Center?
It just feels like, do you have any idea what's going on over there? I'm no expert, but I know one thing. Both sides don't really have any room to negotiate a middle ground. So there's no middle ground. See, anything that would be Israel living next to an actual country that's its own country called the Palestinian country, there's no way that can work.
because it wouldn't be safe for Israel, and they have no obligation to do something that's deeply unsafe for them. So how does anybody really expect that there would ever be a Palestinian state? Because why would Israel, if they have the power to stop it, and it looks like they do, why would they ever agree to that?
Now, I feel like people are doing recreational opinions about Israel, because it's too hard to have a real one. A recreational opinion would be, all right, I will fantasize that two countries are formed. They live in peace because they've done everything right. And then the international community has figured out how to make them live in peace forever. That can't happen.
There are way too many brainwashed Palestinians who just want to kill Israelis that if you put them next to each other, we would just be right back in this situation. They would end up having to re-attack the Palestinian country every five years and wipe out their government and destroy all their assets. And then they would be even more mad when they built back.
So I ask you in all seriousness, what the hell is Israel supposed to do? If they were to say, all right, we will incorporate all the Palestinians and just say it's all Israel. It's just one country and it's just Israel. Well, they can't do that. because then their demographic situation would be in jeopardy.
And it would be, you know, if the Palestinians got a vote, they would just outbreath the Israelis until they ran the whole thing. So there's really nothing that Israel can do to fix this. They just have a permanently dangerous situation. which they can deal with as things blow up, right? It's like whack-a-mole. Here's a terrorist whack. Here's a terrorist whack.
But they never really can stop playing whack-a-mole. There's no path to anything like that. So I think that the Middle East just has to be understood as a power dynamic. If the Palestinians had all the power, things would be really, really bad for Israel. Right now, Israel has more power, And things are really, really bad in Gaza.
You know, you could argue they brought it on, at least Hamas brought it on themselves. But it's just a power play. It's nothing but who has the power is in charge. And if America wants to dominate the Middle East so that we can have our way energy-wise, maybe. By the way, speaking of Mike Benz, when... When I tell you that the United States is this big colonizing bastard country,
and that we're truly evil. America is really evil. The number of countries we've overthrown, isn't it like 60 or 80 countries or something? Romania just got a taste of it. Ukraine's falling apart. I mean, if you looked at the totality of everything that America's done in my lifetime, it's fucking evil. However,
