During the conversation, there's a humorous interjection about Stanley Druckenmiller's direct approach to using AI, with one speaker humorously stating they don't pay for sex and don't let AI write their stuff. The guest (Kevin Muir) expresses a preference for Druckenmiller to write his own material, while the host (Matt Ziggler) finds Druckenmiller's audacity in using AI noteworthy.
“I saw someone say the other day that I don't pay for sex and I don't let AI write my stuff. So, I'm kind of, I'm gonna, I'm gonna be in that same category. I think that Druck should write his own stuff and not, uh, let AI do it.”
“The audacity by which he responded though, like clearly not considering anything else and just like, it's just who I am.”
“I think that, you know, Matt, is just like, yeah, of course I use AI. Why wouldn't you? You're an idiot if you don't.”
