Apple Sues OpenAI, Experts Sign Another AI Warning Letter, Paramount Threatens CA Exit

0:00 huge news over the weekend dropped Mark German dropped a massive scoop right after we got off on Friday night Friday afternoon. Mark German broke the news that Apple is suing OpenAI. Apple and Open AAI are going to war. The Wall Street Journal calling it thermonuclear echoed past attacks calling back to the jobs era. We'll get to that. But first, the accusations. Apple is suing OpenAI, accusing it of stealing Apple's trade secrets. Apple Inc. sued OpenAI for trade secret theft, accusing the artificial intelligence startup and its hardware chief of engaging in a coordinated campaign to steal information about upcoming products. The iPhone maker said in a suit Friday that OpenAI encouraged Apple employees to share information, components, drawings, and other materials related to upcoming products.

0:46 So like the robot, what are the upcoming products from Apple right now? Part of efforts by the AI company, the lamp, yeah, smart cobra lamp. >> >> by the AI company to develop its own suite of devices. I feel like rumors around the device have gone back and forth. Is it a phone? Is it Is it headphones? Is it something else? A pin? we're having Mark German on the show today to break it down for us. he's coming on at 12:45.

1:09 >> The funny thing is I bet German knows more about OpenAI's devices than we do because we specifically didn't want to be read in on anything device related because we knew there was going to be so much speculation that we just said like, "Yeah, we're going to be in the dark. We'll find out." like everyone. >> So, at the center of the lawsuit is a former Apple employee named Changlu, who left for OpenAI and allegedly kept his Apple laptop for weeks after he left the company, downloaded proprietary Apple files, and encouraged other Apple employees to do the same. Yeah, if that happened, that's a big no no. When you leave a company, you got to leave your device on the day you leave, usually. I mean, I was remembering back to I mean, we had a very graceful transition to this business from from Founders Fund, but you know, I had like emails from f in founders fund from like people that went to Hereticon, people that make good guests, and I was like, I'm not even going to export that. I'm just going to like leave that and I'll reestablish those connections to people, cold email them, find find their information independently. Just don't take any files, leave them with the other standard system. Yeah, it is standard practice. you know some people can make mistakes. Also these are just allegations. None of this is confirmed and this lawsuit will be going on for like months if not years. We can go through some of the other historical examples that are sort of interesting to sort of set the the the table on what might play out here. So Apple's filings also spends quite a few words on the fact that OpenAI has poached more than 400 employees from the company in recent years. That's not going to make anyone in Certino happy. they hate poaching.

2:42 There's the famous Steve Jobs Adobe back and forth. Tang Tan left Apple in 2024 to co co-found the AI hardware startup IO with Johnny IV, which OpenAI acquired in 2025 as part of its consumer AI device effort. TAN is now OpenAI's chief hardware officer, and he's leading the consumer device effort there. In his lawsuit, Apple says TAN systemically solicited sensitive information from Apple employees who were interviewing for roles at OpenAI. A lot of perspective on this flying around the timeline, but Ben Thompson and Ralph Winkler in the Wall Street Journal both had interesting angles here.

3:16 >> Wait, they have a Ben Thompson at the Wall Street Journal. >> No, no, no. Ben Thompson atteering and Wolf I said that wrong. Brandon got it correct in that newsletter. We can read a little bit of what Ralph said in the journal. He says, "Open Apple's open AI suit echoes past attack. Steve Jobs declared thermonuclear war. If you're trying to fire up your staff and you're going to battle, even if it's mundane, battle, even if it's just for like, will the next device have 12 gigs of RAM or 32, that's boring. Thermonuclear war is exciting. You got to fire up the the the stroos. so he declared, Steve Jobs declared thermonuclear war on Google, on Google's Android operating system in 2010, calling it a stolen product. Now, his successor is going to battle against Apple's most d new most dangerous rival.

4:04 in one of his last acts as Apple's chief executive before successor John Turnis takes over, Tim Cook fired a missile at OpenAI. In a lawsuit filed Friday, Apple alleged that senior OpenAI executive who once sat a top Apple's own product design team was involved in a monthslong campaign to steal Apple trade secrets. OpenAI's replied at this point and said, "We have no interest in Apple's trade secrets." But Ralph continues. He says, "Although it isn't clear yet what evidence the company has to back up all of its claims, the suit lands before OpenAI has released a product and as the technology industry races to build artificial intelligence powered devices that can move society beyond the smartphone era and there's a whole debate to be had for, you know, where that goes and the value of devices in a world where the agents are just kind of off working and you can maybe just text them or send them a message on Telegram. There's a whole debate over what the is is the future of devices more devices and different devices or is it just no devices? but OpenAI has clearly been working on devices as we know from the IO acquisition. The winner could dominate the future just as Apple's iPhone ruled the consumer market for the last 20 years. quote, I am not afraid of Apple, but I have tremendous Got to flip to A6.

5:21 Let's see. Tremendous respect for them. from OpenAI CEO Sam Alman posted on X Saturday >> and he said S tier company. >> Yeah, he said oh that didn't make it into the paper. Maybe the Wall Street Journal readers aren't familiar with the proper tier list. They think S is down at the bottom when in fact it is above A. Big tech rivals have long tried to supplant Apple but so far Google, Samsung, Meta Platforms, Microsoft and Amazon.com have all failed. It is crazy.

5:45 People think, you know, okay, Android was successful but captured like onetenth of the actual value because the margins on Android devices are so much lower, but you forget that Jeff Bezos stood on stage and said, "We're launching the Amazon Fire phone and we're going to win." And then Microsoft had the whole Microsoft phone and they were really pushing that. And Facebook Chamoth was at Facebook working on the Facebook phone. >> Sort of a right of passage.

6:08 >> It is a right of passage. It it it it's a it's an ultimate long shot as a as an upandcoming hyperscaler to everyone. It's a right of passage to go and and challenge Apple. Now open AI is emerging as a new threat. It has it has built powerful AI models and is working to toward an unspecified family of devices. Interesting to hear that. to run them devices that could supplant apples. Company observers say this to slow poaching of Apple staffers for instance.

6:37 So, this could just slow the the poaching that's happening. Friday's lawsuit has echoes of one of Apple's fi of the ones Apple's filed against various Android ecosystem players beginning in 2010. A legal battle royale with hardware makers producing rival phones that played out over eight years. The central allegation then, as now, was a rival stole Apple's innovations. Apple said Samsung slavishly copied the iPhone with smartphones it was already selling by the millions, which Samsung denied. The company settled in 2018 after a long costly battle, eight years in AI years.

7:11 That's like a million decades. Wow. at the center of each case Apple has pursued was a perceived breach of trust. Trust. So Google's then chief executive Eric Schmidt sat on Apple's board as his company developed Android. So there was like you're you're on the board of Apple saying, "Yeah, we should definitely launch." >> Kind of similar to the Kreger Figma dynamic. >> Yeah. Very very tricky. I'm going to destroy Android because it's a stolen product. Jobs told biographer Walter Isacson. Apple alleges in its new suit that quote, "At every level, OpenAI has been stealing Apple's trade secrets.

7:48 A more junior employee appeared to cross the line by using an Apple employees login to access Apple servers." But Apple has also accused OpenAI's hardware chief, Tang Tan, of soliciting trade secrets from its employees in interviews for jobs and encouraging them to bring quote actual parts from Apple for show and tell sessions at OpenAI. Tan worked at Apple for 24 years, rising to vice president of product design. But bringing parts to an engineering interview isn't unusual, say people familiar with the tech hiring process.

8:18 That was shocking to me. I It does feel unusual to me. Interviewers want candidates to talk through their work. the question is whether the parts were sensitive, something Apple doesn't offer evidence of and is seeking a is seeking discovery to determine. A spokesperson for OpenAI said, quote, "We have no interest in other companies trade secrets. We re we remain focused on building innovative technology that empowers everyday people everywhere." Tan and a more senior employee, Chang Leu, didn't respond to a request for comment. at Apple, Tan worked very closely with Johnny IV, its famous industrial design chief. IVive left Apple to build his own design firm, later poaching Tan. OpenAI bought that company, IO Products, in 2025 to spearhead its own device development efforts. Bad fellows can quickly become enemies in tech. OpenAI made the IO acquisition, revealing its intention to wean customers off smartphone screens a year after announcing a partnership with Apple to integrate chatbt into some parts of the iPhone. The Wall Street Journal has a content licensing partnership with OpenAI, of course.

9:19 bigger companies have so far failed to dent Apple's dominance. and they talk about Amazon's Fire Phone, Microsoft Windows phone. Mark Zuckerberg also tried to do an end run around the iPhone with the metaverse that never fully disrupted the iPhone. Of course, Elon Musk has also chafed at Apple's control of the digital economy. A unit of SpaceX is suing Apple for disadvantaging its AI app. And the company is now prototyping its own smartphone like AI device. Apple has said that its app store relies on algorithms and expert curation and doesn't suppress rivals. The irony of Apple's case against open AI is that Apple itself has so frequently been accused of stealing others companies ideas that it has spawned a new verb sherlocking which is a reference to a an app for the Mac that allowed you to hit I think command space and get a finder window to search everything across your entire desktop. that that that thata that eventually became the spotlight feature baked into Apple, but it was not very good for the company that was running Sherlock. And so, Apple, this is the same like, you know, the the labs will steamroll this or this these many companies just got put out of business by this company. And sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It just sort of depends.

10:30 Apple recently tried to sherlock Particle, but it seems like Particle is doing fine. and so it sort of depends on the actual product. >> Yeah. Not single haven't gotten a single invite from Apple's >> true >> invite system. At the same time, when was the last time you paid for a flashlight app? Probably never, right? Because all of that stuff's baked in. Apple's trying to catch up. >> I saw someone actually go pretty viral on Instagram with the world's most expensive flashlight app. I think it was like a hundred. It was It was like $5 to turn the light on and then $129 to turn it off. Mhm.

11:06 >> That's great. Genius. I like those. >> Ben Thompson read through the filing as as he as he would. he says, "You can read Apple's filing here, and almost everything you need to know is actually on the first page in the first four paragraphs. Paragraph one is a succinct introduction to the case. This case is about Apple's former employees stealing trade secrets for the benefit of OpenAI. Apple brings this suit to put a stop to it. Paragraph 2 recounts how Apple has spent a lot of time and money building products that delight customers.

11:34 Paragraph 3 basically says that everything they do is a trade secret. And paragraph 4 introduces Chang Lou and spends the next page and a half recounting his crimes. Ben Thompson says Lou is almost certainly guilty and an idiot to boot. Not mincing words there. Apple has a lot of details about lose behavior, including dozens downloading dozens of proprietary Apple hardware related files and encouraging other Apple employees to do the same because he did it on his Apple issued laptop >> and furthermore logged onto Apple servers for weeks after he had already left the company. Ben says Apple security says as depicted in this case is shockingly poor. First, the company lost track of the fact that Lou didn't return one of his laptops or disable it remotely. Second, due to what Apple claimed was a bug, Lou continued to have access to the company's internal servers for weeks. He talks about how you know, Tan is is the point person for the 400 people that Apple says that OpenAI has hired away from the smartphone maker. That is no crime, of course, although one does get the sense Apple sure thinks it is.

12:37 >> The funniest moment in here is where he says a couple quick points. A few weeks ago, there was a bit of hubbhub about meta capturing keystrokes from employees in order to train AI. What confused me was people's surprise that a company had this level of access to company issued hardware in the first place. Moreover, while that access may very well be theoretical for a lot of companies at Apple, it has always been a well-known fact going at least as far back as when I was an intern there. Ben Thompson was an intern there 16 years ago, that the company could and would go through everything if you ever cross them. And so it's it's yeah, everyone should know this, but somehow it it at least Apple alleges that it was not known or or just a terrible mistake or brazen you know brazen mistake. he does he does talk about a little bit of the the the motivations for why you're going to thermonuclear war. He says AI era has sucked for Apple.

13:31 >> Yeah. So he says TAN is a face of Apple betrayal. Open AI is the face of AI generally, and it's hard to escape the sense that Apple just really hates AI. And why shouldn't they? Go back to 2022. Apple had it all figured out. They had a lock on the premium end of the smartphone market, which they continued to slowly expand, even as they had figured out how to earn services revenue from every iPhone user basically forever. Business was good. AI has ruined all of that. Suddenly, Apple has to make existential decisions about whether or not to compete in the model game. They totally embarrass themselves with the 2024 new Siri introduction. had their most prominent blogger declare that something is rotten in the state of Certino.

14:07 >> Had to completely overhaul their software and services teams, lost their position as kings of the supply chain and most favored customer of TSMC to the point where they had to enact an emergency midcycle price rise. And then worst of all, have to actually wrestle with the possibility that AI is such a paradigm shift that it might actually threaten the iPhone. And then on top of all that, they lost they lose 400 of their best employees recruited by the lead hardware engineer for the iPhone in partnership with their most famous executive outside of Steve Jobs and have to know that all 400 of those employees are getting hit up by their former colleagues looking for a job as well.

14:39 The AI era has sucked for Apple. Even if they aren't necessarily doomed and even if they relaunch new Siri ends up working out, their position is still more fragile than it was. And everything about life is worse. Given that, how sweet it must feel to suddenly have a smoking gun in the form of a seriously dumb employee blatantly lifting documents and to use it as a cudel to ext exact revenge on the company that represents everything that is making your life miserable. The perspective does make one wonder if that phrase run to its core was projection in the end.

15:10 AI is changing the world and Apple's contribution is to deliver 2-year-old technology differentiated by exclusive access to data it won't share. It certainly has no interest in delivering on a new AIdriven paradigm that endangers its iPhone franchise in any way. Any of its employees who wish to do exactly that, meanwhile, are being told loud and clear that Apple doesn't just think it owns your laptop, but also your mind and knowledge. I think it mostly stinks. But then again, rotten things usually do.

15:36 >> It's thermonuclearino, >> but it's not the first. >> Go sign up for retrie. There's a bunch of context. and we're going to come back to the story, the Germinator. Rohan in Semaphore says Paramount Ways leaving California over Warner Brothers Rift. What's going on here, John? >> So, this is on the basis that California is trying to block the Paramount the Paramount acquisition of Warner Brothers Discovery. Rohan says, "I'm told that if the states do choose to sue, they would have to assume the damages stemming from that action chiefly 600 million to one billion 1.2 billion in ticking fees would potentially be paid out to state state taxpayers. So if if they leave those those fees would not be paid to the state." Paramount just issued this response to the state AG lawsuit. Brian Stelter is breaking it down. saying the complaint distorts settled antitrust law and is based on misrepresentation of competition in the in the entertainment industry today. So Paramount is weighing whether to shift major operations out of California after attorney general Rob Bont and 11 other state attorneys general I always get that wrong filed today to block its 110 billion dollar acquisition of Warner Brothers Discovery. This story was back and forth. Will Netflix get it?

17:00 Paramount wound up with the highest bid, the most cash to offer. It got approved. Huge windfall for David Zazlov over at Warner Brothers Discovery. but a very controversial acquisition. >> All the shareholders. >> Yeah, everyone did very well. but people were very worried because they owned two two historic studio lots in Los Angeles. Would they need both of those? Would they convert one to apartment buildings? This was sort of the the the the nightmare case for fans of Hollywood film making that it would become a more agile, lean, globally distributed studio that would they be making less films would they change their their pattern? Because as they are two separate buyers of intellectual property and scripts that come to Hollywood, they can pay higher prices.

17:46 there's less competition potentially the the price of the the that the industry becomes more monopolistic and there's less buying activity. So the proposed deal was the and is the largest merger in Hollywood history. it would combine two of the five major film distributors and give the resulting company control of roughly 27% of US film distribution and basic cable channels. of course, anyone who's in favor of this was arguing that, well, people are watching Instagram and YouTube all day long and listening to podcasts and live streams. You can't look at Hollywood in isolation. It's okay if there's a little bit of consolidation in an industry that's facing incredible pressure from a new disruptive industry. we saw this play out with the shutter stock Getty Images question where you have immense pressure in the stock image in market from an entirely new outsider technology consolidation makes a lot of sense usually in those scenarios. but if you're just looking at it if you're just defining the industry as only Hollywood studios then yes this is this does represent more consolidation. friends and advisers to Paramount CEO David Ellison had reportedly been urging him to reconsider the company's California footprint in the event that California sued over the deal. Previously, Paramount had offered to keep both of its historic studio lots in California open and release 30 films annually, which was basically just adding the 15 and 15 that were made from both studios, I believe, something like that. but executives have privately complained that Bontto refused to negotiate. Worth noting that the Justice Department has already cleared the merger while China and other international regulators have raised no comparable comparable objections thus far. So from a antirust perspective, it looks like the merger can go through, but the state of California is potentially trying to block it now. So Paramount says California's complaint distorts settled antitrust law and is based on misrepresentation of competition in the entertainment industry today. It'd be very interesting to see where they actually go if they do leave California.

19:52 There's been so much so much movement to Texas and Florida, but in terms of film making, Toronto, London, Atlanta. Exactly. So maybe Georgia. I don't know. I'm sure every other state is gunning for this because bringing a new bringing an industry to town is is almost always a good move. More jobs for your local economy, more more tax dollars going around. there will probably be a competition, but we'll see. We'll see where this where this develops and we might have someone from the media analysis industry come on the show later this week to discuss.

20:27 >> There is a new letter new letter just dropped. We are hoping for a new billion-dollar PDF >> but we got another letter. more than 200 researchers and economists including Jack Clark, Jeff Dean, Dome Brown, Tyler Cohen, Scholto, John Scholman, Eric Schmidt, Dean Ball, Yoshua Benio, >> Joshua Benjio, Eric >> signed a statement urging governments and institutions to act now to prepare for AI's economic impact. They start the >> pretty simple >> letter by saying AI may become radically more powerful over the next 10 years.

21:06 They don't. This isn't like the start. It's just three statements. The entire >> So, they're signing, but they're signing. >> They're saying we all agree with these three statements. >> They agree that AI could possibly become radically more powerful over the next 10 years, >> which feels very conservative. >> That's like an incred you're not committing to anything at all. >> no. I mean, there are plenty of people that are saying that AI will go away in the next 10 years. Like, it's it's useless, you know?

21:32 >> No one's really saying that. Ed Zitron saying that and like a hundred thousand people are liking his post when he says that. So like there are 100 thousand people out there that are like it hallucinates. It's dumb. It's it's not useful. It's going to go away. >> People out of billions. I'm just saying there there are people that don't believe this. But yes, this does feel like a like a like actually an easier statement to agree with than the short timelines of fast takeoff in two years. recursive self-improvement, anything that's coming out of basically any lab is much more aggressive than this. Elon's timelines have been solving new physics in two years, stuff like that.

22:08 >> Yeah. Point one, AI may become radically more powerful over the next 10 years. Point two, this could drive an unprecedented transformation of our economy, larger than the industrial revolution, but unfolding over a vastly shorter time frame. It could bring risks including large-scale job displacement as well as opportunities such as major gains in living standards. And three, economists, policy makers, and technology leaders must act now to understand the economics of transformative AI and to build the incentives, guardrails, and institutions needed to steer AI in a direction that complements humans and benefits society.

22:42 So, >> so that last one's not a probability. Yeah. >> The first one it feels like you can sign if you're at 1%. 1% chance that it gets more more radically more powerful over the next 10 years. 1% chance that it drives an unprecedented transformation of our economy, but as long as you agree that economists, policy makers, and technology leaders must act now to understand the economics of transformative AI, you sign this. So, so three is really the strongest the strongest the most strongly worded bullet point.

23:12 >> Well, and it's interesting because the people signing this are technology leaders. So they're really not not the actual top leaders interestingly. So if you look at who signed this, you have a ton of people from OpenAI, Anthropic, Stanford, Meter, like every Harvard, like every lab. >> Bam Margera I think you said. >> No, no, no. Google, Jeff Dean, like you have people from top from top institutions, but not the CEOs, not the investors. Like there's been other there's been other I mean I guess Reed Hoffman and Yan Talin and who else is I mean Eric Schmidt's on here but notably absent are Sam Alman, Daria Amade I don't believe Demis is on here.

23:55 Is he on here? >> Yeah, but you you have Jack Clark, Sarah Frier. >> Yeah. So but what's interesting is that it's it's sort of like the proxies. It's the it's like the right-hand men and women of the AI leaders that are signing. And so you have to imagine that that Dario, Sam, Elon, Deis, Sundar, Satia, like they got the message. This was received to them and they were like, "You guys can solve this, but you can sign this, but we're not signing it because this doesn't feel like something that happens behind the scenes where Sarah Frier doesn't go to Sam or or Shalto doesn't bring this up to Dario, oh, there's a new letter. I'm thinking of signing it." like it feels like it's >> so was the like that that big pause letter that Elon did sign at one point >> a lot of people sign and and that one every lab leader actually did sign and this one isn't even a pause but somehow didn't rise to the aura level and maybe that's deliberate because then it gets clipped and turned into headlines where it's like blank lab leader fill in anyone it's going to be a it's going to be >> leaders at XYZ labs >> it's going to be head of blank lab if you're the first one to jump if you're Sam or Daario or Demis or Elon. they just said that it could bring largecale job displacement. So you you're going to have that headline tag next to you as opposed to if it's like someone at a lab who is not the CEO of that lab says it can bring large scale job displacement because right now it seems like at the very top a lot of the lab leaders are sort of backing off of the near-term job displacement worries.

25:32 >> Yeah. But I I think this still feels much more like the the AI doc than like AI 2040, right? in that like the the message I got from the AI doc was like we all got to talk about this, you know, let's get everyone in a room and like figure something out. We don't know at all what it's going to be. We got to figure something out where AI 24 is like okay we have this this is our our plan A. We should be doing this specific set of of you know policies task whatever.

25:55 >> Yes. This is much more like we all got unifying rules with China like US and China like nuclear level negotiations on how things slow down. It's it's it's it's a global slowdown of largecale AI training runs essentially. and this is very yeah this is very very different. So much easier to sign but a AI 2040 didn't have like signitories. I mean, it had people that like helped out with it in general and then they did poll them as to they pulled some of the authors to say like which one do you think is most likely to play out? But I I guess by any I guess everyone implicitly in the AI 2040 if you contributed to that document you're sort of alongside advocating for is it plan A because it's the fourth one that they offer. I think is it plan D? I think plan A is is what they there's a bunch of plans and then I think like in the order on the website I think it is the fourth one but that's just like the arbitrary >> AI 2040 I'm trying to load the site but it's not loading anyway we can come back to that we must act now I I like this I like I like the idea of of more economic research more policymaking research to understand these things it it it's not like it's hard to get wrong because the end result is just more information, more studies, more you know conversation and proposals. It's not anything specifically like if it was like we like large scale do job displacement is coming next month. We need to you know print money and do economic stimulus broadly like we did during COVID. I would be like, I don't know that the like what if the job displacement doesn't come up and we just create a bunch of inflation. Like I don't I don't know if we should do that, but we should be ready for if we hit 10% unemployment, 15% unemployment that we do have stimulus in the back pocket. And I think we do with where interest rates are and with the with the history of how we've dealt with employment shocks in the past. so I think we are like set up pretty well if that happens. doesn't seem like it's happening at this moment, but >> yeah, >> tell us about this.

28:03 >> The critical the critical view on this is the people building the technology say that we got to do something about this like like it's kind of just continuation of like that we got to do something about this and maybe you just need to do a new letter every single month forever >> maybe. >> but I don't know. speaking of our previous conversation on on betting, risk maxing says, "A 9 to5 isn't a career. It's a supply chain for casino ammo."

28:30 >> And that is certainly one way to look at it. Although that's not how we think about our work here, gentlemen. >> No, we respect the dollar like Nick Cage. Tai Lopez calls money fuel units. I always thought that was a funny funny turn of phrase. Fuel I call them fuel units. I call them fuel units. Well, this person calls them casino ammo. pull up this last video. We'll close out the show with it. >> from Emily, who >> she's been on a tear, every video is going viral.

28:58 >> Voice actor. >> I think she's a she's a real She does voice acting for for radio ads, but of course is making fun of the tech industry. I think >> business runs on business, but your business's business is stuck in the past until now. Introducing business AI for business. Sounds like something we promote. >> Business AI for business leverages the power of business AI for your business. Transforming your business into AI business. With business AI for business, business AI does your business in seconds, leaving your team to focus on the important business of your business, business. Now your business is free to run your business at scale, at speed, at AI. The future of business isn't coming.

29:43 It's here. Business AI for business AI business AI AI AI. >> Very talented. The funny she's saying every voiceover script right now, which I would assume that this kind of like audio is like AI is really good at. >> Yeah. >> But but I think some of the AI companies are laring and they don't know how good the the voice models have gotten. So they haven't actually >> they hire a voice actor to read the most AI laden script of all time.

30:14 >> Yeah. So, so I like sometimes I listen to the radio on the way to work and I hear ads like this and they're always by these like big legacy companies. Okay. >> So, I assume that's why they're not using like actual cutting edge technology. >> Bullish for voiceover artists, I guess, >> reading AI for business ads. >> Last video of the day. >> Yeah. >> Did you see this? there's a clip from >> SpaceX's new launch site.

30:35 >> It looks like Dune. It actually looks like Dune. I'm pretty sure SpaceX accidentally built a transformer. At least that's what it sounds like here. This is designed to to hold all the rockets so they can launch them I think every hour. The engineering that goes into this just so thinking so far ahead like I think this is designed to launch a starship every hour >> and it's like >> they said that something like an Olympic swimming pool's worth of water that they use to >> cool everything. Yeah. the deluge. This is crazy of about 650,000 gallons per minute.

31:18 >> That's approximately in the range of about like one entire Olympic swimming pool being drained in the course of a minute. Thank you for tuning in to TBNN and leave us five stars in Apple Podcast and Spotify. Sign up for our newsletter at tvpn.com. We'll see you tomorrow. Goodbye.
