The following is a conversation with Elon Musk, his fourth time on this, the Lex Friedman Podcast. (Elon whistling) I thought you were gonna finish it. (Elon whistling) It's one of the greatest themes in all film history. (whistling continues) - Yeah, that's great. - So I was just thinking about the Roman Empire.

00:00

As one does. (Elon laughing) - There's that whole meme where old guys are thinking about the Roman Empire at least once a day. - And half the population's confused whether it's true or not. But more seriously thinking about the wars going on in the world today. And as you know, war and military conquest has been a big part of Roman society and culture.

A question that I often get is: Do you believe in progress? Well, I don't believe in progress, at least not as a force in the Universe. To quote Fran Lebowitz, "I don't believe in anything you have to believe in." Because there isn't any arc bending toward justice. There is no force that's lifting us ever upward.

00:18

Quite the contrary. The Universe often seems to be out to get us. There are parasites that want to eat us from the inside. There's the laws of entropy: there are more ways for things to go wrong than to go right. There's human nature: we were not selected by the processes of evolution to be particularly nice.

00:36

We have the capacity for revenge and exploitation. So that's what's lined up against us. But nonetheless, progress has happened. How do we explain that? What might seem like a miracle? The answer is 'rationality.' If people deploy their rationality, their cognition, their language_with the goal of making other people better off- then the result, over time, is what we call 'progress.

00:59

Can we become more rational? It's a pressing question because irrational beliefs lead to public health disasters. They can lead to wars and genocides. We'd really be better off if more of us were more rational. My name is Steve Pinker. I am a Professor of Psychology at Harvard University. My most recent book is called "Rationality: What It Is, Why It Seems Scarce, Why It Matters.

01:27

There is a capacity in us to become collectively more rational — we can just see it looking backwards. The three great things people desire is to be healthy, wealthy, and wise- and so we can start with those three. Health: meaning in life, is to be alive rather than dead, and longevity has vastly increased. We live more than twice as long as our ancestors.

01:46

So we have not just extra life, but as if we've been granted an extra life. Wealthy: 200 years ago, 90% of the world lived in extreme poverty. Today, about 9% of the world lives in extreme poverty, and that proportion falls every day. Wise: our natural state is illiteracy and ignorance. And until pretty recently, a small, aristocratic minority was able to read and write.

Unlocking Progress: How Rationality Drives Human Advancemen

Exploring the Power of Rational Thinking in Overcoming Universal and Human Challenges

Exploring the Concept of Progress
in the Universe

A question that I often get is: Do you believe in progress? Well, I don’t believe in progress, at least not as a force in the Universe. To quote Fran Lebowitz, “I don’t believe in anything you have to believe in.” Because there isn’t any arc bending toward justice. There is no force that’s lifting us ever upward.

Challenges from Natural and Human Forces

Quite the contrary. The Universe often seems to be out to get us. There are parasites that want to eat us from the inside. There’s the laws of entropy: there are more ways for things to go wrong than to go right. There’s human nature: we were not selected by the processes of evolution to be particularly nice. We have the capacity for revenge and exploitation. So that’s what’s lined up against us.

How Rationality Explains Human Advancement

But nonetheless, progress has happened. How do we explain that? What might seem like a miracle? The answer is ‘rationality.’ If people deploy their rationality, their cognition, their language with the goal of making other people better off, then the result, over time, is what we call ‘progress.’

Post-Match Thoughts

• Reflections on the outcome and what it means for both teams moving forward.

• Speculation on how Team Liquid will fare against Gladiators in the grand final.

• Insights into the overall strategies and adjustments that may be needed for future matches.

Player and Team Dynamics

• Discussion on the mentality and preparation of players, including anecdotes about personal experiences and team dynamics.

• Mention of the importance of hygiene and professionalism in a team environment.

• Insights into how different players handle pressure and contribute to their team’s success.
