@themechmusicman @BrianRoemmele And when I try and make a video that looks real, my students say "it looks like Roblox"

@BaggJan @BrianRoemmele I know, I get this all the time 🙄

@TheHumanoidHub I'm late for my Ashtanga yoga class! Oh wait, I'll just send my robot

This is the first time we're seeing the latest generation Boston Dynamics Atlas in motion. - Features 56 DoF, with 360° rotation in key joints - 6.2 ft tall, weighs 198 lb (90 kg) - Operating temperature: -20° to 40°C - IP67 dust and water protection - Only two unique actuators to minimize cost and complexity - A Limb can be swapped in less than 5 min.

@BrianRoemmele I showed the violin machine video and both my wife and my daughter said "AI !"

@BrianRoemmele Absolutely love these 60s, 70s and 80s programs about real life and real people.

@BrianRoemmele I lived in Thailand for a year and this was common

@BrianRoemmele That's super exciting! I am looking at my "The Spectrum" machine as I am writing this. It is almost identical the ZX Spectrum 48K I bought in May 1983.

The Commodore 64 and ZX Spectrum have been turned into retrofuturistic handhelds!

@BrianRoemmele I find these old commercials much more appealing than the current ones.

In 1981 I had A Casio House Rocker. It got stolen in s parking lot near Rutgers in New Brunswick, New Jersey. Man it did everything!

@BrianRoemmele I talk to colleagues and friends about your series and they're always flabbergasted. All of them either believe that AI will never replace most jobs, or that we are doomed.

@BrianRoemmele I love Bee Gees. One of my favorite bands.

I isolated this vocal with my local AI for trining (it has nothing to do with music models) and I am taken back by these falsettos. No autotune.

@BrianRoemmele @Timcast Impressive garage gym @BrianRoemmele. Those dumbbells in the background look like those 300 pounders Paul Anderson used in the 50s.

Tim, I hear the concerns, I have thought about this Orrin’s for decades as I built AI. The AI wave will feel like a tsunami for anyone still tied to Industrial-Age scarcity thinking. I have presented in my 5000 Days series that this isn’t the end: it’s the Interregnum on a Hero’s Journey to the age of Abundance. We are not the new Luddites (smash the machines!) but we also are not helpless. We’re not headed for a technocrat-controlled “you will own nothing and be happy” dystopia. We’re headed for an explosion of personal sovereignty where AI and robotics collapse the cost of everything to near-zero, decoupling survival from traditional “work.” Think your robot making more robots making more robots. The math is merciless to the old system. And it will end if just a few of us own a capable robot. And we will. The bridge? Universal High Income (UHI+) as a temporary cast before we all own robots making robots to meeting near-zero living costs. From there we move into a post-scarcity era that dissolves the old political and economic systems entirely. The next 5000 days are going to be hard and complicated but we have a map and compass to get to the other side: Start here: readmultiplex.com/5000-days-to-t… On Universal High Income:
