It's a good way to get the day started.

Oh dear.
Speaker:
They're morning people.
Speaker:
This is going very badly.
Speaker:
Uh, going viral, it can serve a purpose.
Speaker:
Yep.
Speaker:
You need to realize that one of your big, I'm sure you have, one of your biggest challenges is such the social media battle going viral and getting, and getting out there enough.
Speaker:
Oh, God, look at me.
Speaker:
Patronizing, universal income business.
Speaker:
I think this is, uh, run, it's, it's gonna have to happen.
Speaker:
Do you think?
Speaker:
Yeah.
Speaker:
I, I don't see a way around it.
Speaker:
I mean, we're in, in what wall societies.
Speaker:
Pretty much, I mean, I think we're, we're automating more professions day by day.
Speaker:
Um, there's gonna come a point where, you know, there, there isn't enough.
Speaker:
Sure.
Speaker:
Is that, you know, I heard a guy say that suggests there's a limit to human creativity, which is, you know, I mean Sure.
Speaker:
Like, there's that argument like 20 years ago there wasn't a job of social media manager.
Speaker:
Um, and, and I think that will continue, but I do think, you know, with the, uh, the population increase and the sort of, you know, the, the real sort of, Uh, large volume jobs.
Speaker:
I don't see how we're gonna get around it.
Speaker:
And, um, now as people who've worked in the funky, uh, Silicon Valley kind of world, uh, what do you think about Micro ding?
Speaker:
Never tried it.
Speaker:
Never tried it, but I, I could see for creatives that being useful.
Speaker:
Yeah.
Speaker:
I think it would have to be on an individual basis.
Speaker:
I, I haven't seen people respond well to it and, and others not.

It's an extremely controversial one.
