Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Tom Bilyeu of “Impact Theory” about why he continues to live in Los Angeles despite high taxes and crime; how he learned to take important risks; his vital advice for young entrepreneurs; why his show that was focused on mindset evolved to cover financial and world affairs; his journey from film school to building and selling Quest Nutrition for a billion dollars, emphasizing the importance of pursuing passion even in the face of potential failure; the two potential paths that AI could take us on; the potential of AI to revolutionize energy access and solve complex problems rapidly; why we are about to enter the disruptive "valley of despair" of AI; the unpredictable journey of entrepreneurship; why starting a business is like entering a tunnel without knowing if the light at the end is an oncoming train; societal shifts and the future of AI and technology; how to properly deal with older generations that are clinging to power; why he predicts a societal split between humanists and transhumanists, leading to potential conflicts; why despite the potential for disruption, he remains optimistic about AI's role in enhancing human life; and much more.
