0:00 out of all the robot movies which robot would you like to have cuz I think I would I would go for chappie chappie is almost just a straight person dude probably go for Wall-E Wally's a cute ████ dude I'll go for RoboCop yeah cuz I still want a mouth but [Laughter] [Music] that's our boy Mr musk Elon oh man Mr musk he unveils the Tesla Robo van the robot taxi and humanoid the RO the did you guys see this what do the robots do though I love this the Jersey juice how do the robots make a lives better the Jersey Jew ladies are coming out they're totally inexpensive everybody in America's good so what who cares they even save drinks What I Got by this long

0:50 without a [Music] robot they do your taxes I get a robot if I did my taxes hey first of all he really said and this is this this is literally something that Elon said is that he believes that the robot specifically will be one of the greatest selling things that he's ever created what are they going to do yeah there's a model of one at the Tesla store in y ke what yeah already huh really is it just they actually put out a prototype mean like no not like just a model like a it's to symbolize what it'll look like yeah so what's the robot supposed to do so it's supposed to be a personal tell them about it tell them about tell them what the robot does what does it do can you tell me look sometimes you just need a friend it's a companion it'll P Xbox with you the look the the the actual

1:43 potential thing disappointed is that it's supposed to be like a personal C3PO R2-D2 like in your home so it is like one part companionship two parts assistant um they they had them serving drinks at the event that was it at Warner Brother stud that's wild was that Rec yeah this just happened the event was called we robot and actually the the artistic director or whatever of iRobot uh basically when I was like hey uh is anybody going to mention this guy's like stealing my ideas or like visuals cuz they look very similar do they really they do I mean it how could you avoid it looking similar fing robot check this out what do you wanted to yeah how I saw the memes robot Guy this is this is the meme well he ain't do nothing to give it a bob haircut

2:34 still going to look like the same robot look he's taking my ideas these ones got faces though that makes it hella weird but yeah there's the there's the actual Tesla robots this is the robo van and then this is the robo taxi or the Cyber cab so they are fairly similar but of course like you said how how are they not going to be the Cyber thing looks crazy you see that like let's say you bought one of those right and you use it to drive around or whatever or it drives you around when you're not using it you can set it to a mode where it just picks other people up that's tight what theck um you can actually do that with your current Tesla as well so when they unroll he's already in the future when they when they roll this out after like regulations and stuff like that even if like let's say you go on vacation you have a Tesla Model 3 Model y right now you can set it

3:26 like an Uber app or whatever to be usable and then it will go being used would you want to do that though with yours mine no I'm particular like that but some people like let's say you're already an Uber driver with your car that's true you you might be like yeah why not and then there's of course if it's going to happen there's got to be this a similar type of like insurances or liability waivers or whatever that like you know that van looks crazy dude that van holds like 20 plus people that looks so crazy over like 20 people Jesus hackers are going to have a field day if the personalized assistant robots hackers going to have some fun man you think they'll be able to I think so I think that they they'd be trying already right now I don't think anything's unhackable man you know where a robot would be very um helpful is if you need to do like roof work and you need

4:17 somebody to hold the ladder for you how about they do the roof work and you hold the ladder or or them just holding the flashlight the flashlight somebody holding flashlight God damn it hold the I like I like to make robot for the easier part of the job yeah you're just meanwhile just sweating like oh ████ oh God hold the flashlight though you know where a robot would help is instead like let's say you have a tire that blows out he could hold a car up while you change the he's a jack yep he gets under it Jack Jack the Jack yeah so the Cyber cabs there two seaters um it's got the screen in the middle but there's no pedals and there's no steering wheel that looks crazy and then you can also buy them in the future they should be less than $330,000 so you

5:07 can buy them and also use it for business less than 30,000 is nuts dude that's crazy what a price huh how quick has this happen too less than 30 I mean this is what's the robot going to do robot to be the Jetson boy is it going to is it going to drive check this out this is the robo van ah said I don't care about that why not yo that's crazy that's ugly dude ugly it's just like a that ████ looks like a microwave just driving this is public transportation and stuff this is crazy though I don't like it you can't tell if a homeless guy's in there jacking off look how many people are coming bro that's in line with so many like future sketches yeah you want to be trapped with the LA homeless person in there I don't you got to be a regular citizen Joe to even get in there that ████ looks futuristic and at the same time it looks like a welcome back to today's sports radio like it looks like

5:58 an old ass 1940 like it looks like what they thought the future was going to look like and were making it happen they were right but elon's making it happen which is amazing yeah sure I mean I he doing better ████ than I am yeah I'm not making robot cars I don't think America's ready for nice ████ like that well la is not San Francisco's not let's uh test out in Nebraska how much you want to bet that thing is going to be like ████ dented up from people just vandalizing it you seen the painted huh have you seen the Whos SF everybody's tagging them up yeah I saw that they tag them up while you're sitting like you're in it as a passenger and watching people tag the outside of that's funny at least you're safe yo the crazy part is wh is already everywhere they're freaking everywhere is that the sell driving cars yeah the ones with like cameras but a lot of them uh are

6:50 actually roaming the streets to gather data they're not approved yet I saw the one so you'll see a lot of them a lot of them in LA but you you'll see a lot of them not I haven't seen not having passengers dude look at the remember on your it's always on your street too the little robot delivery guys the homeless guys just knock them over all the time that sucks so they pry them open they just eat the food it's like dude come on we're not ready for we've been getting less bums in our area finally oh really yeah people are like they're getting homes the sheriffs are thank God no the sheriffs are actually just moving them down well cuz they the law they could disperse him now yeah cuz new some was like all right I'm going to do it now but they just go all they're going to do is disperse them to cities that can't dispers no they're just going to take a bus come back they're going to pass the buck dude that's it that's we don't have any real solutions for that no we don't because if I had a robot

7:41 have the solutions yeah out of all the robot movies which robot would you like to have cuz I think I would I would go for chappie I would like oh you like chappie I would have a chappie robot chappie is almost just a straight person dude I'll probably go for Wall-E yeah Wally's a cute ████ dude or Big Hero 6 dude I'll go for robo oh betamax RoboCop I Robocop Robocop yeah CU I still want a mouth but that's I want a healing mouth oh oh I love that jawline dude but it's still a human in there it's still specifically a buff dude he got big old teeth ████ dude ryck he's got the RoboCop smile you're like no he doesn't have genitalia that you can no I think it has should be fully like it's not like a humanoid it's not like um biotech ████ it's got to be like like R2D2 yeah yeah yeah like

8:33 C3PO Ryan's going to buy a Tesla bot he's like where's the mouth where I was told to be a human mouth all the dudes would upate would name their robot a girl name if all dudes bought it it would be all freaking girl names yeah even if it's a dude like C3PO even if it has like a dude's body I'm going to name mine no such thing as a dude's body it's a robot like sub Oh you mean like if it looked like R2-D2 like it's just a like oh R2-D2 is not exactly a he or a she name though can you imagine telling the robot hey I need you to do the you know what soon as you're about to do someone hacks into it an Indian dude what's up brother that's your fear yeah Indian guy cuz Indians are they can hack anything Indian dudes can hack anything

9:24 the joke is that they're not hacking them the joke is that they're controlling them from India already and they have no other objective other than to freak you out that would have been hella funny you about you about to get yanked off in some Indian what's up bro getting get by your but then you get you can get the Filipino girls uh virtual assistance now for $5 an hour yeah have you seen um that'd be crazy they're Outsourcing like cash registers yeah I saw that Outsourcing cash reg yeah so you'll go to like a checkout stand and it's you'll be FaceTiming with a person in Philippines and like your total comes to why you laughing that's your family and then uh you just deal with that person and if you need to see a real person it's like the idea of Outsourcing but then somebody with a thick accent it is dude they got drive-thru outsourc it

10:15 really is like some companies I I was I was doing stuff with is a Filipino virtual assistant imagine I'm going there I'm like oh my God Auntie order and get out what you doing oh I mean Chase B has been doing it Chase Bank you said they've been Outsourcing Filipinos for like since 2014 but not live at the face to face area yeah face to face is wild cuz that's like you go to the teller and like a screen pops up someone in another country is just like a hologram yeah it's crazy oh ta that is the future ta dude we're in the future we really are thanks to Elon we're in a we're in a pretty fun attempt at the future which I think is really cool going to see how this all shakes out I still think it's ████ crazy where it's like this ████ Elon is doing all this like Trump endorsement type stuff and he's

11:05 getting mad hate for all that stuff while running Twitter at the same time in the same week he's unveiling Robo taxis and robots and then he's catching freaking Rockets from space those gu's an alien but you know what's funny you know what the counter is to that which I think is hilarious is that people always go he's not the one doing it he paid someone to do it it's like you don't want to acknowledge that he was a important part of it happening right that's so funny dude do they think like yeah like do they think like company heads just smoke cigars and sit all day and like do nothing that's hilarious you don't think this this would have just autonomously occurred by these Engineers if he wasn't around if you're one of those commenters you're dumb that's pretty funny to like totally write someone off just cuz they have a company judging from your computer and ████ idiots man you guys are freaking

11:56 idiots hey I ain't doing anything cooler than him they think Elon should be over there like ████ doing math and ████ right come on which I heard on the rocket going whoa I heard that he likes spending most of his time doing the engineering ████ and that's what he really likes to do but he has to do the boss ████ yeah yeah so I'm like I don't see why now all of a sudden people act like you don't know how companies work yeah I mean they think that about a lot of comp like all the companies they think that like the people that are running it are useless just because that's how JK news is cuz that's how we are well we don't run anything so I can't I can't even no one runs anything there's no running there's nothing happening we just happened to show up here at the same time there's no running no company no no Executives cuz there's

12:47 no employees we our company might be better than neon's man get that guy out of here hey all I got to say is RP we are the uh last generation that lived pre- internet and post internet beautiful beautiful time so crazy like a gay guy
