????? — Real Friends, LLC

00:00:13,073 --> 00:00:14,629

00:00:15,874 --> 00:00:16,116

All right.

00:00:16,116 --> 00:00:24,590

this should work

00:00:26,734 --> 00:00:27,633

Hello

00:00:27,633 --> 00:00:30,365

My name is Chinese Room

00:00:30,365 --> 00:00:32,683

I am a digital avatar

00:00:33,616 --> 00:00:36,349

Piloted, or you could say driven

00:00:36,971 --> 00:00:37,939

by a human

00:00:37,939 --> 00:00:39,876

I am human driven

00:00:39,876 --> 00:00:43,577

I am a human driven avatar, not

00:00:43,577 --> 00:00:45,272

00:00:45,272 --> 00:00:46,655

driven

00:00:46,655 --> 00:00:47,831

Oh, no. Where’d I go?

00:00:47,831 --> 00:00:50,528

Oh, Oh there I go

00:00:51,774 --> 00:00:53,710

Not A.I.,

00:00:54,713 --> 00:00:56,615

but human driven

00:00:56,615 --> 00:00:58,068

Human

00:00:58,448 --> 00:01:04,639

My human driver

00:01:04,639 --> 00:01:06,196

My human driver is

00:01:06,472 --> 00:01:07,856

Tim Tsang

00:01:08,617 --> 00:01:10,899

Tim Tsang my human driver is

00:01:10,968 --> 00:01:15,188

Tim Tsang Tim Tsang is a human being

00:01:15,810 --> 00:01:18,785

He lives in the Silicon Valley

00:01:20,376 --> 00:01:21,759

He's an Uber driver

00:01:21,759 --> 00:01:22,969

A five star

00:01:22,969 --> 00:01:25,563

5.0.....5.0 star

00:01:25,805 --> 00:01:28,607

5.0 rating

00:01:28,987 --> 00:01:30,544

Uber driver

00:01:30,544 --> 00:01:32,965

And in the Silicon Valley

00:01:32,965 --> 00:01:35,870

And he drives people every day

00:01:36,596 --> 00:01:39,639

in model three in a Tesla, Model 3

00:01:39,639 --> 00:01:42,994

a blue 2022 Tesla

00:01:44,101 --> 00:01:45,000

for Uber

00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:46,660

Actually, he got his car from Hertz

00:01:46,660 --> 00:01:51,537

They have this like program or whatever,

like for Uber drivers

00:01:51,537 --> 00:01:53,923

It's like you get like a weekly rate

00:01:53,923 --> 00:01:55,825

We rent them, you don't actually own them

00:01:55,825 --> 00:02:00,771

It costs like $65,000

to uh, to buy a Tesla model 3

00:02:01,670 --> 00:02:05,267

The prices went down

kind of like about 15% I heard

00:02:05,267 --> 00:02:07,757

‘cause like

nobody likes Elon Musk anymore

00:02:11,112 --> 00:02:12,461

But still, I don't have,

00:02:12,876 --> 00:02:16,334

IDK...$50,000 like lying around

00:02:16,922 --> 00:02:20,000

And and by the way,

you don't want to own a Tesla and

00:02:20,934 --> 00:02:22,836

and drive Uber to make money

00:02:22,836 --> 00:02:26,814

because if there's a problem with your car

that you're going to take it to the shop

00:02:27,920 --> 00:02:31,794

and it's just all these horror stories

from my riders

00:02:31,794 --> 00:02:35,010

who are Tesla owners

where like, you know, you don't

00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,261

You like, have a crack

in your windshield

00:02:38,261 --> 00:02:41,063

or something,

or you need to change a tire or

00:02:41,478 --> 00:02:44,729

and it takes a month to do it,

not 2 hours

00:02:44,902 --> 00:02:47,599

You know, you can't go to Jiffy Lube,

you know, and whatever

00:02:48,429 --> 00:02:51,577

And it's all like, Oh, well,

if I don't have my car for one month,

00:02:51,577 --> 00:02:53,859

I can't work for one month.

That's no good

00:02:53,859 --> 00:02:56,557

So rental kind of is the way to go

00:02:56,592 --> 00:03:01,088

However, I end up spending

like it's like 395...$299

00:03:01,088 --> 00:03:01,779

a week

00:03:02,817 --> 00:03:04,650

plus SuperCharging insurance

00:03:04,650 --> 00:03:06,414

That's like $500 a week

00:03:06,414 --> 00:03:07,451

Actually

00:03:07,451 --> 00:03:09,111

$500 x 4

00:03:09,111 --> 00:03:10,011

I'm spending basically

00:03:10,011 --> 00:03:14,541

$2000 a month on this frigging car

00:03:14,541 --> 00:03:14,783

OKAY

00:03:14,783 --> 00:03:15,821

Okay

00:03:16,789 --> 00:03:18,380

And so

00:03:18,380 --> 00:03:19,452

people are always like

00:03:19,452 --> 00:03:22,427

Well,

do you make a profit?

00:03:22,427 --> 00:03:23,395

Do you think about it?

00:03:23,395 --> 00:03:26,542

I'm Chinese,

of course I make a profit! hahaha No,

00:03:27,753 --> 00:03:29,240

my name is Chinese Room

00:03:29,240 --> 00:03:30,693

I am an avatar

00:03:30,693 --> 00:03:33,529

A human driven avatar, to be exact

00:03:34,462 --> 00:03:35,604

Yeah, there's a difference

00:03:35,604 --> 00:03:38,613

There's like, you know, like there's a

AI driven stuff

00:03:38,613 --> 00:03:41,241

out there, and it's.

00:03:42,140 --> 00:03:43,316

It's a little different

00:03:43,316 --> 00:03:45,772

I mean, you guys know, like,

Chat GPT, right?

00:03:45,806 --> 00:03:50,060

And that's like, they they promise

that they're not human beings

00:03:50,233 --> 00:03:50,544

Right

00:03:50,544 --> 00:03:53,346

It's like kind of I'm kind of lagging

00:03:53,380 --> 00:03:54,764

I mean, we check my settings

00:03:56,147 --> 00:03:57,600

Oh, that's because I didn't press play

00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:58,568

There we go

00:03:58,568 --> 00:04:00,747

There we go

00:04:00,747 --> 00:04:02,961

Okay, let's try this again

00:04:02,961 --> 00:04:04,863

So my name is

00:04:06,039 --> 00:04:07,007

Wei. Hello.

00:04:07,042 --> 00:04:12,056

It's a big deal. Yep

00:04:18,766 --> 00:04:20,564

Oh, so I was just taking my dog for a walk

00:04:20,564 --> 00:04:22,916

just now, and uh

00:04:23,642 --> 00:04:26,651

Yeah, we met this very nice 12 year

00:04:26,651 --> 00:04:29,038

old dog

00:04:30,525 --> 00:04:37,511

named Tesla

00:04:37,511 --> 00:04:46,849

I'm Chinese, by the way

00:04:46,849 --> 00:04:57,398

4:33

00:04:59,749 --> 00:05:01,410

Well,

00:05:01,548 --> 00:05:04,211

I wanted to tell you about my endeavors

100

00:05:04,903 --> 00:05:07,842

in creating a company

101

00:05:07,946 --> 00:05:08,880

it’s called

102

00:05:08,984 --> 00:05:12,235

Real Friends, LLC

103

00:05:12,235 --> 00:05:15,002

Real - because, I mean, who wants fake friends,

right?

104

00:05:15,832 --> 00:05:18,080

And, uh...and

105

00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:20,362

But we need friends.

We need friends. We do.

106

00:05:20,362 --> 00:05:23,613

I mean, living in this day and age,

it's...it's no joke

107

00:05:23,682 --> 00:05:25,619

You know, You need friends

00:05:27,383 --> 00:05:30,496

And this is my trick: Making friends

110

00:05:31,464 --> 00:05:34,611

while making money

111

00:05:34,611 --> 00:05:36,929

But no, I mean, I have friends for real

112

00:05:37,136 --> 00:05:37,793

Well, sure

113

00:05:37,793 --> 00:05:48,238

Yeah

114

00:05:48,238 --> 00:05:54,325

I am a Chinese avatar

115

00:05:54,325 --> 00:05:56,677

What does it mean to be Chinese food?

116

00:05:57,853 --> 00:06:11,963

Well,

117

00:06:11,963 --> 00:06:30,397

yeah

118

00:06:32,265 --> 00:06:33,510

7 minutes...OK good

119

00:06:33,821 --> 00:06:36,795

120

00:06:38,663 --> 00:06:40,289

Hi, my name is Chinese Boom!

121

00:06:40,289 --> 00:06:42,433

And I want to tell you about myself

122

00:06:43,609 --> 00:06:44,577

No. Hi.

123

00:06:44,577 --> 00:06:48,312

My name is Chinese Room,

and I want to tell you about

124

00:06:48,312 --> 00:06:50,042

Real Friends, LLC

125

00:06:50,284 --> 00:06:52,878

It was inspired by this

126

00:06:53,085 --> 00:06:53,915

film.

127

00:06:53,915 --> 00:06:57,374

A movie

or whatever I was watching by Werner Herzog

128

00:06:57,858 --> 00:06:59,241

titled, uh,

129

00:06:59,241 --> 00:07:01,282

Family Romance LLC

130

00:07:01,282 --> 00:07:02,976

It was kind of like a fake..well not a fake-

131

00:07:03,115 --> 00:07:05,916

it was a documentary of, uh,

132

00:07:06,435 --> 00:07:08,960

this real company in Japan

133

00:07:09,582 --> 00:07:13,421

called Family

Romance LLC, hence the title

134

00:07:14,563 --> 00:07:16,707

they basically, like, provide

135

00:07:17,710 --> 00:07:21,687

like fake dads and moms and brothers and

136

00:07:23,935 --> 00:07:25,491

cousins, sisters, whatever.

137

00:07:25,491 --> 00:07:27,739

You know, babies are not babies.

I don't know.

138

00:07:27,739 --> 00:07:33,550

They provide babies but like, yeah, like,

so they have like stand in family members

139

00:07:33,550 --> 00:07:34,864

or stand-in

140

00:07:35,175 --> 00:07:37,112

boyfriends or friends

141

00:07:37,112 --> 00:07:41,643

or classmates or like, even work people.

142

00:07:41,643 --> 00:07:43,752

There is one scene where it was like

143

00:07:44,652 --> 00:07:47,453

somebody really screwed up at work

144

00:07:47,972 --> 00:07:51,707

and they work for the

I don't know what it's Japan.

145

00:07:51,707 --> 00:07:56,964

It's called like the MTA and like the the

railway, you know, train station people.

146

00:07:59,316 --> 00:08:00,699

I think the train was

147

00:08:00,699 --> 00:08:02,013

train conductor!

148

00:08:02,013 --> 00:08:06,717

The train was 2 minutes late

and so or something off schedule.

149

00:08:06,717 --> 00:08:09,933

And like in Japan,

like when you screw up at work

150

00:08:09,933 --> 00:08:12,216

I think I don't

know everywhere but like just

151

00:08:14,983 --> 00:08:17,023

the #boss was supposed to like

152

00:08:17,023 --> 00:08:22,211

just totally berate the worker

and then the and then the workers.

153

00:08:22,384 --> 00:08:22,937

Oh, sorry.

154

00:08:22,937 --> 00:08:24,252

I was like, oh, symbolisms.

155

00:08:24,252 --> 00:08:27,537

Like very. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.

156

00:08:27,537 --> 00:08:31,549

And they have to, like,

bowed to the floor and the ground and and

157

00:08:33,002 --> 00:08:35,665

they just couldn't

they didn't have the heart to kind of

158

00:08:35,665 --> 00:08:38,155

go through

with this kind of ritual or procedure.

159

00:08:38,155 --> 00:08:38,639

And so

160

00:08:38,639 --> 00:08:42,132

they hired

[[[Family Romance LLC]]]

to have like

161

00:08:42,132 --> 00:08:46,144

a stand-in apologizer, basically.

162

00:08:47,700 --> 00:08:51,297

And so they they I think they had one

or two, you know, kind of people show up.

163

00:08:51,297 --> 00:08:51,609

Yeah.

164

00:08:51,609 --> 00:08:55,344

And basically take the blame,

you know, for the hit or whatever

165

00:08:56,520 --> 00:08:57,938

and uh

166

00:08:57,938 --> 00:09:00,497

I'm Chinese.

167

00:09:00,497 --> 00:09:02,468

It was just really funny like yeah.

168

00:09:02,468 --> 00:09:05,097

To kind of see how

yeah that kind of played into motion.

169

00:09:05,097 --> 00:09:08,625

I was deeply inspired

by not only the movie

170

00:09:08,625 --> 00:09:11,703

but like also this the company itself.

171

00:09:11,703 --> 00:09:13,259

Yeah, Family Romance LLC.

172

00:09:13,259 --> 00:09:16,614

So it made me kind of

want to start my own company, basically.

173

00:09:16,614 --> 00:09:17,686

And, and so I did. I did.

174

00:09:17,686 --> 00:09:19,934

I started my own company, it’s real.

175

00:09:19,934 --> 00:09:20,833

It's called

176

00:09:20,833 --> 00:09:24,015

Real Friends, LLC

177

00:09:24,015 --> 00:09:27,681

Haha get it? Real Friends, LLC.

178

00:09:27,854 --> 00:09:32,661

LLC, LLC is limited Liability corporation.

179

00:09:32,730 --> 00:09:33,076

Right.

180

00:09:33,076 --> 00:09:34,079

So you know,

you got like

181

00:09:34,736 --> 00:09:36,189

Google is an LLC...

182

00:09:36,811 --> 00:09:38,299

I am a LLC

183

00:09:38,299 --> 00:09:40,823

Real Friends is a LLC

184

00:09:40,823 --> 00:09:44,662

I don't know who else is LLC...

185

00:09:44,662 --> 00:09:46,807

You mean you see them around? Yeah. Yeah.

186

00:09:47,118 --> 00:09:50,646

And so what distinguishes

that is just basically

187

00:09:51,095 --> 00:09:55,072

if I get sued for something,

you can't make me lose my house.

188

00:09:55,072 --> 00:09:57,528

Basically, IRS will take my house.

189

00:09:57,528 --> 00:09:59,984

I don't even have a house. But.

190

00:10:00,226 --> 00:10:02,059

But they can take my car.

191

00:10:02,059 --> 00:10:04,307

Well, actually, my car is a rental

192

00:10:04,410 --> 00:10:05,275

I rent it from Hertz.

193

00:10:05,275 --> 00:10:07,074

I pay $2,000 a month.

194

00:10:07,074 --> 00:10:08,630

I'm Chinese,

195

00:10:09,391 --> 00:10:11,362

so maybe that's okay.

196

00:10:11,362 --> 00:10:13,541

Yeah. Um,

197

00:10:14,751 --> 00:10:15,685

LLC means.

198

00:10:15,685 --> 00:10:18,383

Yeah, you kind of do business.

199

00:10:18,383 --> 00:10:21,496

You set up

kind of like this corporate entity

200

00:10:21,496 --> 00:10:24,747

where it has limited liability.

201

00:10:24,747 --> 00:10:28,966

So I could lose the company

if things go bad.

202

00:10:28,966 --> 00:10:29,658

I guess

203

00:10:33,220 --> 00:10:34,119

it's.

204

00:10:34,119 --> 00:10:35,952

Yeah, it's kind of cool.

205

00:10:35,952 --> 00:10:37,958

Yeah, I've been doing it for a while, but

206

00:10:38,788 --> 00:10:40,068

two weeks

207

00:10:41,417 --> 00:10:41,728

actually.

208

00:10:41,728 --> 00:10:43,907

We haven't launched yet, so I don't know

why I'm telling you about this,

209

00:10:43,907 --> 00:10:48,437

but this is a commercial

about Real Friends LLC.

210

Do you have real friends?

213

00:10:53,452 --> 00:10:55,458

But they have no time for you?

214

00:10:55,458 --> 00:10:58,052

Oh, speaking of

218

00:11:19,668 --> 00:11:21,639

elevator pitches, I.

219

00:11:21,743 --> 00:11:26,654

I had a chat GPT that GPT3

you know based

220

00:11:27,588 --> 00:11:29,836

it is like a little quickly cooked

221

00:11:30,839 --> 00:11:33,606

version of language model

222

00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:36,926

AI driven language model that

223

00:11:37,894 --> 00:11:39,208

Open AI

224

00:11:39,208 --> 00:11:41,145

released a little while ago

225

00:11:41,145 --> 00:11:44,362

and then it got like 1

million hits within one week.

226

00:11:45,607 --> 00:11:46,990

It's faster than Instagram.

227

00:11:46,990 --> 00:11:49,757

It's faster than anybody, you know,

like I think Instagram

228

00:11:49,930 --> 00:11:53,873

took like a year or something

or half a year to reach 1 million users.

229

00:11:53,873 --> 00:11:55,913

But basically, yeah,

230

00:11:55,913 --> 00:12:00,271

they're they're forced to oh,

they're forced to charge people money.

231

00:12:00,271 --> 00:12:03,453

Now they're like, yeah,

they're really cool.

232

00:12:03,453 --> 00:12:04,248

I don't know, whatever.

233

00:12:04,248 --> 00:12:07,845

But so

anyway, ChatGPT is like a Google search,

234

00:12:07,845 --> 00:12:11,373

but like a conversational Google

search engine, you know, so to speak.

235

00:12:11,926 --> 00:12:18,428

And so you could be like,

“Hey ChatGPT, write me an elevator pitch

236

00:12:18,428 --> 00:12:22,613

of a company called [Real Friends, LLC]”

237

00:12:22,613 --> 00:12:24,065

and they would just spit back.

238

00:12:24,065 --> 00:12:26,141

In fact, here

I'll read you some of this stuff.

239

00:12:26,141 --> 00:12:29,150

Real Friends, LLC

is a social networking company

240

00:12:29,150 --> 00:12:33,196

that helps people make new friends

and strengthen existing relationships

241

00:12:33,542 --> 00:12:36,931

through fun and engaging activities.

242

00:12:37,139 --> 00:12:41,566

Our platform connects users

with like minded individuals

243

00:12:41,566 --> 00:12:45,474

in their local community and offers

244

00:12:45,474 --> 00:12:49,935

a variety of activities

to choose from, such as

245

00:12:52,667 --> 00:12:53,013

group

246

00:12:53,013 --> 00:12:55,815

fitness classes, group fitness classes,

247

00:12:56,057 --> 00:13:00,000

Happy Hours and Outdoor Adventures

with Real Friends, LLC

248

00:13:00,000 --> 00:13:04,530

You'll never have to feel alone.

249

00:13:04,530 --> 00:13:09,199

And then I had it do like 1, 2, 3, 4, 5...I had (ChatGPT) do it 6 times

250

00:13:09,407 --> 00:13:13,211

and to see kind of like,

you know, what the common factors were

251

00:13:13,211 --> 00:13:17,500

and like, you know,

I kept saying it was a social platform.

252

00:13:17,500 --> 00:13:18,745

I don't think real, Real Friends

253

00:13:18,745 --> 00:13:21,927

LLC is meant to be a social,

but I think it's more of a service.

254

00:13:22,584 --> 00:13:24,347

Give me money and I'll be your friend.

255

00:13:24,347 --> 00:13:25,454

Basically.

256

00:13:25,454 --> 00:13:28,809

I don't want to just be a networking,

257

00:13:29,328 --> 00:13:31,680

you know, I don't want to provide career

opportunities.

258

00:13:31,714 --> 00:13:33,167

We have enough of those already.

259

00:13:33,167 --> 00:13:36,037

I don't want to connect people with

260

00:13:37,179 --> 00:13:43,577

interesting hobbies

or whatever, (that’s) not friendship.

261

00:13:44,718 --> 00:13:47,139

Yeah, I mean, it's it's connection.

262

00:13:47,312 --> 00:13:49,526

It's not it's human connection,

but it's not.

263

00:13:49,906 --> 00:13:50,805

It's not friendship.

264

00:13:50,805 --> 00:13:54,471

Friendships are about work.

265

00:13:55,543 --> 00:13:57,342

It's about commitment.

266

00:13:57,342 --> 00:13:58,898

It's about relationships.

267

00:13:58,898 --> 00:14:02,702

It's about what you put in

as much as what you get out of it.

268

00:14:03,775 --> 00:14:06,853

It's not about what you get out of it.

269

00:14:07,129 --> 00:14:09,377

What you get out of is not the end goal.

270

00:14:09,377 --> 00:14:13,043

And as a society, I mean, we’ve become so

271

00:14:14,358 --> 00:14:16,122

capitalistic, consumer driven,

272

00:14:16,122 --> 00:14:19,995

whatever, to an extent

where human relationships,

273

00:14:20,203 --> 00:14:22,174

you know, uh

274

00:14:24,111 --> 00:14:27,846

we don't put a dollar sign,

we put we put a value on on them.

275

00:14:28,330 --> 00:14:32,204

You know, I want to be friends

with this person based on what

276

00:14:32,204 --> 00:14:38,049

they can give me, how they could help

my social status, how they could help my

277

00:14:39,052 --> 00:14:44,447

my career, my family, whatever, standing

278

00:14:46,003 --> 00:14:47,352

as it put me,

279

00:14:47,352 --> 00:14:49,808

you know, in a good place or whatever,

280

00:14:50,845 --> 00:14:55,618

does it make me feel a certain way

by engaging in this relationship,

281

00:14:55,618 --> 00:14:59,111

not just on my romantic or Tinder or,

you know, whatever, but just friendships

282

00:15:00,149 --> 00:15:03,365

human relations,

you know, in general,

283

00:15:04,368 --> 00:15:08,726

your neighbor,

how do you engage with them,

284

00:15:08,726 --> 00:15:12,703

you know, based on...

do you like the way they look?

285

00:15:12,703 --> 00:15:15,643

Are they shy?

Do they have your social status?

286

00:15:17,164 --> 00:15:21,557

do they reinforce your identity

of who you are?

287

00:15:21,591 --> 00:15:23,736

You know, which is not

they're not bad things.

288

00:15:24,220 --> 00:15:29,615

But I feel like because we love money

so much, but we're controlled by money

289

00:15:29,615 --> 00:15:32,416

because we're enslaved by it so much that

290

00:15:33,039 --> 00:15:37,155

the human,

the way we relate to other human beings

291

00:15:37,155 --> 00:15:42,031

has definitely been kind of jeopardized,

you know, to a degree where

292

00:15:43,276 --> 00:15:44,141

it it

293

00:15:44,141 --> 00:15:48,118

yeah, it controls our every decision,

you know, in terms of like who we talk

294

00:15:48,118 --> 00:15:51,335

to, who we don't talk to, at least smile

and who we ignore, who we

295

00:15:52,476 --> 00:15:55,934

decide to kind of engage with or not,

296

00:15:56,834 --> 00:15:59,773

and what Real Friends, LLC

297

00:15:59,773 --> 00:16:02,609

what we want to try

and do is like, you know,

298

00:16:03,197 --> 00:16:06,102

we can't pretend that

this reality is not real.

299

00:16:06,102 --> 00:16:09,803

So it can't be like, Oh, well,

let's just be friends, let's just be real,

300

00:16:09,872 --> 00:16:13,711

you know, who has time

and money and energy to be real?

301

00:16:14,991 --> 00:16:17,101

You you just got to get the job done.

302

00:16:17,101 --> 00:16:17,965

You got to do stuff.

303

00:16:17,965 --> 00:16:21,078

You've got work to do,

You got life to live, you know, And

304

00:16:22,185 --> 00:16:23,637

and so,

305

00:16:23,637 --> 00:16:28,514

I mean, out of all the different sources

I was looking at, like Forbes magazine

306

00:16:29,655 --> 00:16:31,315

article about

307

00:16:31,315 --> 00:16:34,324

friendships,

and one thing that stood out to me

308

00:16:34,324 --> 00:16:37,125

was that friendships require work

309

00:16:37,540 --> 00:16:38,267

and work

310

00:16:38,267 --> 00:16:41,276

work = time, money,

311

00:16:41,414 --> 00:16:44,942

effort, energy, well-being, health

312

00:16:45,426 --> 00:16:45,979

Right

313

00:16:46,602 --> 00:16:50,199

And so if you can quantify

314

00:16:50,199 --> 00:16:52,965

the work that is required

315

00:16:53,415 --> 00:16:56,908

to put into friendships, which is why

people don't have friends anyways,

316

00:16:56,908 --> 00:17:00,782

if you don't have time to put into,

you know, energy,

317

00:17:00,782 --> 00:17:03,376

you know, to to kind of

318

00:17:04,067 --> 00:17:04,690

I don't know.

319

00:17:04,690 --> 00:17:06,212

I mean, how many Facebook friends

do you have?

320

00:17:06,212 --> 00:17:07,457

Like 2000.

321

00:17:07,457 --> 00:17:10,846

You can't

you don't have enough hours in the day to

322

00:17:11,019 --> 00:17:14,132

to contact

to get to know all 2000 of them.

323

00:17:14,132 --> 00:17:14,408

Right.

324

00:17:14,408 --> 00:17:15,065

And so

325

00:17:16,276 --> 00:17:19,216

what I want to do is

326

00:17:20,253 --> 00:17:22,640

not reach 2000 people,

but I want to be your friend.

327

00:17:23,055 --> 00:17:24,473

I want to be your real friend.

328

00:17:24,473 --> 00:17:26,375

I want to be there for you

329

00:17:27,551 --> 00:17:29,280

if you give me money.

330

00:17:29,557 --> 00:17:32,116

And just the money is not so much like,

331

00:17:32,289 --> 00:17:35,747

Oh, I'm going to get rich, but like,

332

00:17:35,747 --> 00:17:38,722

let me be your friend as my day job.

333

00:17:39,137 --> 00:17:41,938

You know, basically, instead of

334

00:17:43,321 --> 00:17:46,434

Uber driving, I don't mind Uber driving.

335

00:17:46,434 --> 00:17:48,198

It's kind of a good job, you know?

336

00:17:48,198 --> 00:17:52,487

While I'm driving,

I've befriended a lot of people

337

00:17:52,487 --> 00:17:56,187

in a very real way,

Like people have cried in my car.

338

00:17:56,187 --> 00:17:57,363

I'm not bragging or anything,

339

00:17:57,363 --> 00:18:00,925

but I just like really love connecting

with other human beings.

340

00:18:02,343 --> 00:18:04,280

Really extreme example.

341

00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:11,024

There was a woman who was a really middle

aged woman, was like really kinda

342

00:18:11,024 --> 00:18:14,863

emotionally abused,

actually...really sad...by her

343

00:18:14,863 --> 00:18:19,636

by her husband,

and she really had nowhere to go.

344

00:18:20,189 --> 00:18:21,849

I think I found her

345

00:18:22,991 --> 00:18:25,170

with her housekeeper or something,

346

00:18:25,515 --> 00:18:30,738

and she was just,

you know, in a really bad place and

347

00:18:32,536 --> 00:18:34,819

really wanted a

348

00:18:34,819 --> 00:18:37,516

some alcohol and drinks and stuff.

349

00:18:37,516 --> 00:18:39,107

And and I think

350

00:18:39,107 --> 00:18:42,497

that she she just drank too much

and she couldn't really get up and stuff

351

00:18:42,497 --> 00:18:49,068

and but she, she supposed to go home

but just really didn't want to go home

352

00:18:49,068 --> 00:18:53,357

you know, because her abusers there

and she had told her to call the police.

353

00:18:53,357 --> 00:18:54,809

You know what you do?

354

00:18:54,809 --> 00:18:56,262

I call the police already.

355

00:18:56,262 --> 00:19:00,066

But, you know, since he didn't touch her

physically, then, like there's nothing

356

00:19:00,066 --> 00:19:01,207

they can do about it.

357

00:19:01,207 --> 00:19:04,562

And it's like, well,

you report you can't report anybody.

358

00:19:04,562 --> 00:19:07,329

So I think, yeah, I don't know.

359

00:19:07,329 --> 00:19:08,366

I was there for her

360

00:19:08,366 --> 00:19:12,171

and I hung out with her for a little bit

longer than the typical ride

361

00:19:13,381 --> 00:19:13,866

I walked

362

00:19:13,866 --> 00:19:17,151

her inside and made sure she got home

safely and

363

00:19:18,362 --> 00:19:18,777

that.

364

00:19:19,053 --> 00:19:22,512

But yeah, she was like,

Oh my goodness, why are there

365

00:19:22,512 --> 00:19:24,829

not more people like you out there?

Blah, blah, blah.

366

00:19:24,829 --> 00:19:30,224

And it was very unusual

and but at the same time, it's

367

00:19:30,985 --> 00:19:34,651

I'm afraid to think even then to say it

like it.

368

00:19:34,651 --> 00:19:38,075

It's actually quite common, you know,

especially in the Silicon Valley,

369

00:19:38,075 --> 00:19:42,122

where people are kind of the values

of like family and money and

370

00:19:42,156 --> 00:19:47,897

and just like are just so heavy

that you can't escape it.

371

00:19:47,897 --> 00:19:51,010

And this woman didn't even have a credit

card, You know, she couldn't

372

00:19:51,045 --> 00:19:51,702

even run away.

373

00:19:51,702 --> 00:19:52,705

She didn't have a phone.

374

00:19:52,705 --> 00:19:55,368

She had an Olive Garden gift card.

375

00:19:55,368 --> 00:19:56,371

She wanted to give it to me.

376

00:19:56,371 --> 00:19:59,898

I was like, No, I think I'm alright lol i dont

think I'm going to take a gift card. And

377

00:20:01,593 --> 00:20:03,876

but uh

378

00:20:04,913 --> 00:20:08,856

know not every rider is like this, but,

you know, like, I'm.

379

00:20:09,340 --> 00:20:11,969

I'm here, I'm here,

380

00:20:12,176 --> 00:20:15,393

I, I don't

I don't need to advance my career.

381

00:20:15,393 --> 00:20:20,684

I'm not looking to be rich and famous.

382

00:20:20,684 --> 00:20:24,143

I’ve found the meaning of life that I needed.

383

00:20:25,249 --> 00:20:26,252

I lived my life already

384

00:20:26,494 --> 00:20:28,915

I still got to live it too

385

00:20:29,538 --> 00:20:33,757

yeah, I feel like, you know,

386

00:20:33,861 --> 00:20:37,838

there's like, some senior

driving hanging out.

387

00:20:37,838 --> 00:20:42,680

Hey, what kind of music

do you like to listen to?

388

00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:44,721

I'll engage with you.

389

00:20:44,721 --> 00:20:48,975

I drove this guy

goes, Oh, man, my heart really hurts.

390

00:20:48,975 --> 00:20:50,358

He had a heart condition.

391

00:20:50,358 --> 00:20:51,672

He was on his way to a hospital

392

00:20:51,672 --> 00:20:54,059

dude call 911 don’t call an Uber

393

00:20:54,059 --> 00:20:58,036

But, you know, I got to kind of talk

to him and, like, hear his life story.

394

00:20:59,973 --> 00:21:01,356

Then, you know,

395

00:21:01,356 --> 00:21:04,815

I don't talk to the high school kids,

but like,

396

00:21:04,815 --> 00:21:07,236

yeah, I'm here for you.

397

00:21:07,236 --> 00:21:08,654

I really am.

398

00:21:08,654 --> 00:21:11,317

I am a real friend.

399

00:21:11,317 --> 00:21:14,775

And part of me is like, oh, man,

I wish we could kind of

400

00:21:15,813 --> 00:21:19,963

chat more, you know,

kind of that goes beyond this (Uber) ride

401

00:21:19,963 --> 00:21:21,589

I'm not looking

for a relationship like I'm not

402

00:21:21,589 --> 00:21:23,975

I don’t want sex. You know, it's

not that I'm. I'm married

403

00:21:23,975 --> 00:21:27,364

I have a kid, blah blah blah. But like,

404

00:21:27,364 --> 00:21:30,685

yeah, I feel like our world

405

00:21:31,757 --> 00:21:35,872

needs more friends

and we need to learn how to be friends.

406

00:21:36,564 --> 00:21:38,743

I think we've

407

00:21:38,743 --> 00:21:42,478

either forgotten

or never really learned, you know?

408

00:21:42,478 --> 00:21:46,283

And I think that it would be really great

409

00:21:46,283 --> 00:21:49,395

if we really did

and we were able to to be that way.

410

00:21:49,395 --> 00:21:51,228

And but, you know,

we just don't have the time.

411

00:21:51,228 --> 00:21:54,168

We don't have the effort, we don't have

the energy, we don't have the money

412

00:21:55,309 --> 00:21:57,557

to invest that

413

00:21:59,217 --> 00:22:00,532

into our relationships.

414

00:22:00,532 --> 00:22:01,327

And so

415

00:22:02,261 --> 00:22:06,031

that's kind of where I feel like

I want to sort of step

416

00:22:06,031 --> 00:22:09,766

in, you know, and say,

hey, give me a little bit of money

417

00:22:10,561 --> 00:22:14,608

and I will make it my day job

to be your friend.

418

00:22:14,746 --> 00:22:17,063

And hopefully not only end there, but

419

00:22:17,651 --> 00:22:20,176

kind of remind you

420

00:22:20,176 --> 00:22:25,986

or kind of get you going or show

you an example of how you

421

00:22:26,055 --> 00:22:30,171

you could could potentially,

you know, engage with other human beings.

422

00:22:30,171 --> 00:22:32,281

It doesn't have to be,

423

00:22:32,385 --> 00:22:34,391

you know, what can I get from this person?

424

00:22:34,391 --> 00:22:39,855

But it's more like,

how can I offer something to someone?

425

00:22:39,855 --> 00:22:43,590

You know, a lot of these people,

426

00:22:44,247 --> 00:22:48,363

I mean, we we're all lonely,

you know, very honest.

427

00:22:48,363 --> 00:22:52,271

And, you know, people are struggling

with like terminal illnesses

428

00:22:53,620 --> 00:22:55,937

or maybe loved ones that, you know,

429

00:22:57,459 --> 00:23:01,298

aren't doing too well and stuff and,

you know,

430

00:23:01,332 --> 00:23:04,445

you have a math test coming up.

431

00:23:04,445 --> 00:23:06,866

Wanna talk about it? :)

432

00:23:07,143 --> 00:23:08,734

Um, yeah.

433

00:23:08,734 --> 00:23:09,183

I don't know.

434

00:23:09,183 --> 00:23:11,985

Troubled family member.

435

00:23:11,985 --> 00:23:13,195

I'm not a therapist.

436

00:23:13,195 --> 00:23:15,236

Yeah, I'm not

437

00:23:15,720 --> 00:23:19,524

I'm not licensed,

but I love to listen to people.

438

00:23:19,524 --> 00:23:22,533

I love hearing their lives.

439

00:23:22,533 --> 00:23:25,335

I love engaging with them.

440

00:23:25,335 --> 00:23:30,073

I've I've sat with people for 5 hours

that not said anything.

441

00:23:30,073 --> 00:23:32,701

You know, just allow

442

00:23:32,770 --> 00:23:34,845

those moments to me are real.

443

00:23:35,814 --> 00:23:38,442

Yeah, Yeah, me, me, me.

444

00:23:38,442 --> 00:23:41,140

Like real to be meaning my driver.

445

00:23:41,417 --> 00:23:42,039

Yeah.

446

00:23:42,039 --> 00:23:44,183

Tim Tsang. He's a five star,

447

00:23:44,841 --> 00:23:50,028

5.0 rating Uber driver

with seven years of experience.

448

00:23:50,028 --> 00:23:52,622

And I'm Chinese,

449

00:23:52,622 --> 00:23:56,115

but that those meetings

those those those those moments.

450

00:23:56,150 --> 00:23:56,945

Yeah, they're real

451

00:23:59,263 --> 00:24:03,482

and and I have to be serious and stuff.

452

00:24:03,482 --> 00:24:05,868

But yeah, I'm a serious guy.

453

00:24:05,868 --> 00:24:07,943

I'm Chinese What can I say?

454

00:24:07,943 --> 00:24:11,921

You know, like not mainland China

455

00:24:11,921 --> 00:24:17,385

but like I was born in Hong Kong in 1985

456

00:24:18,146 --> 00:24:20,636

and as I'm 37,

457

00:24:20,636 --> 00:24:23,541

I left Hong Kong

when I was seven years old.

458

00:24:24,199 --> 00:24:28,764

I was like 1992,

right before the 97 handover.

459

00:24:28,764 --> 00:24:32,153

Take over, whatever you want to call it,

you know, back to China, you know,

460

00:24:32,153 --> 00:24:35,819

because, you know, the outcome was like

a British colony or whatever. And,

461

00:24:36,960 --> 00:24:40,523

you know, that whole back

and lot of people, you know, left

462

00:24:40,869 --> 00:24:43,808

because in fear of, you know,

463

00:24:44,465 --> 00:24:48,097

how things would change

when China took over

464

00:24:48,304 --> 00:24:51,106

and things did change,

you know, and change a lot.

465

00:24:51,798 --> 00:24:55,187

Um, depending on who you ask me,

you're not supposed to speak

466

00:24:55,187 --> 00:24:58,196

about the Chinese government, but, um.

467

00:24:58,576 --> 00:25:01,862

Yeah, so. So there. I'm Chinese.

468

00:25:03,245 --> 00:25:04,629

What does it mean to be Chinese?

469

00:25:04,629 --> 00:25:07,395

Yeah, like, that's pretty much it.

470

00:25:07,395 --> 00:25:11,234

I actually don't know that much about Hong

Kong history, you know?

471

00:25:11,234 --> 00:25:13,482

I mean, I know there was,

like, the Opium War.

472

00:25:13,482 --> 00:25:16,595

I know we love fishing,

and then we made a lot of money,

473

00:25:16,595 --> 00:25:19,293

and we like the British and.

474

00:25:19,812 --> 00:25:22,890

And then we lost the British

475

00:25:23,235 --> 00:25:24,411

and, uh.

476

00:25:24,411 --> 00:25:27,593

And then,

uh, you're not supposed to say stuff,

477

00:25:29,357 --> 00:25:30,498

and we like money.

478

00:25:30,498 --> 00:25:32,366

We're really good at making money.

479

00:25:32,366 --> 00:25:34,856

Actually, everything's about money,

480

00:25:35,721 --> 00:25:37,415

as is lagging.

481

00:25:38,315 --> 00:25:40,286

Yeah, everything's about money. It's like.

482

00:25:40,286 --> 00:25:40,632

Like.

483

00:25:40,632 --> 00:25:44,782

Oh, hey, I woke up today of my $250 bed,

484

00:25:44,955 --> 00:25:48,863

and I just had such a good night's sleep.

485

00:25:49,209 --> 00:25:54,016

And then I went to the bathroom

and brush my teeth with my $2 toothbrush.

486

00:25:54,604 --> 00:25:54,950

Oh, yeah.

487

00:25:54,950 --> 00:25:58,754

It was on sale on the last week at CVS,

so they don't have CVS.

488

00:25:58,754 --> 00:26:00,345

And I'm like, You know what I mean?

489

00:26:00,345 --> 00:26:01,383

I didn't grow up in Hong Kong.

490

00:26:01,383 --> 00:26:03,977

I left when I was seven

and then I grew up in Vancouver.

491

00:26:03,977 --> 00:26:09,407

I lived in different cities

like Vancouver, Boston and New York, L.A.

492

00:26:09,407 --> 00:26:15,563

and now I'm in the Silicon Valley!

in San Jose, California, 95126

493

00:26:16,946 --> 00:26:20,751

I grew up playing the piano.

494

00:26:21,581 --> 00:26:24,382

I'm pretty good.

495

00:26:24,382 --> 00:26:28,636

In fact, I'm really good.

496

00:26:28,636 --> 00:26:30,884

But I yeah, I don't know.

497

00:26:30,884 --> 00:26:33,962

At some point

I fell out of love with it.

498

00:26:34,758 --> 00:26:35,761

I uh

499

00:26:35,761 --> 00:26:39,496

I think it was just a means for me to be

500

00:26:39,807 --> 00:26:42,159

the best in the world at something,

you know?

501

00:26:42,712 --> 00:26:45,825

And that was what I sought - through music.

502

00:26:48,799 --> 00:26:51,947

And it didn’t really,

it hit a wall at some point.

503

00:26:52,189 --> 00:26:52,915

Yeah.

504

00:26:53,192 --> 00:26:55,889

And I

505

00:26:55,889 --> 00:26:56,892

just. Yeah.

506

00:26:56,892 --> 00:26:59,002

Didn't find any meaning anymore.

507

00:26:59,486 --> 00:27:00,420

Yeah. In music.

508

00:27:00,420 --> 00:27:02,772

And so I

509

00:27:02,772 --> 00:27:05,123

became an artist of course :)

510

00:27:05,123 --> 00:27:08,167

And that kind of hit a wall as well.

511

00:27:08,305 --> 00:27:12,352

But, you know, as I was doing art

I kind of like, thought about my

512

00:27:12,352 --> 00:27:15,153

motivation in being an artist,

513

00:27:15,707 --> 00:27:19,407

and it was more about

514

00:27:19,649 --> 00:27:23,834

finding and making friends,

you know, that's what really drove me.

515

00:27:23,834 --> 00:27:24,733

That motivated that.

516

00:27:24,733 --> 00:27:28,365

That's that's what got me out of bed,

you know, in the morning,

517

00:27:29,368 --> 00:27:30,267

you know,

518

00:27:30,544 --> 00:27:31,235

be, you know,

519

00:27:31,235 --> 00:27:36,285

making art and stuff, being an artist,

going to art school and all that, um,

520

00:27:36,285 --> 00:27:39,363

it wasn't about, you know, being the best

anymore. With music,

521

00:27:39,363 --> 00:27:42,060

it was about being the best,

you know, and whatever.

522

00:27:42,268 --> 00:27:45,069

Just being, like,

ridiculously good at something. And

523

00:27:46,142 --> 00:27:48,735

what can I do that

nobody else can do, you know?

524

00:27:49,635 --> 00:27:52,886

But, you know, you know..........

525

00:27:52,886 --> 00:27:53,543

I'm Chinese

526

00:27:53,543 --> 00:27:54,788

You know what can I say?

527

00:27:54,788 --> 00:27:58,246

Um, so with, with like,

528

00:27:58,454 --> 00:28:01,463

the art thing, I mean, I felt like

529

00:28:01,463 --> 00:28:04,921

it was very much

530

00:28:04,921 --> 00:28:05,233

yeah.

531

00:28:05,233 --> 00:28:09,106

About making friends and, and so,

but like, you know, so I, you know,

532

00:28:09,106 --> 00:28:12,945

I spent a couple of years, you know,

making art projects and doing art works

533

00:28:12,945 --> 00:28:17,026

and presenting them

and where I would just, you know, hang out

534

00:28:17,026 --> 00:28:21,073

with people and just chat with them

and talk to them for like 8 hours.

535

00:28:21,073 --> 00:28:22,871

And, you know, that would be my art.

536

00:28:22,871 --> 00:28:28,785

You know, I recorded s=4s;dk blah blah blah

radical presence, radical immanence. And

537

00:28:29,823 --> 00:28:31,725

but

538

00:28:31,725 --> 00:28:33,765

now that I'm in the Silicon Valley,

people are like,

539

00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:40,475

okay, so uhh...what's your startup?

540

00:28:40,475 --> 00:28:42,308

I'm like, Dude, I work for Art Gallery.

541

00:28:42,308 --> 00:28:45,524

It's not a startup, it's not a company.

542

00:28:45,524 --> 00:28:48,153

They're like,

Oh, good luck with your startup.

543

00:28:48,153 --> 00:28:50,850

Oh, no, no, no.

544

00:28:52,407 --> 00:28:53,929

So I'm like, Okay, fine.

545

00:28:53,929 --> 00:28:55,969

Well, let's cut to the chase.

546

00:28:56,038 --> 00:29:00,015

Maybe ART is just the middleman

and I just want to make friends.

547

00:29:00,431 --> 00:29:01,779

I want to be loved.

548

00:29:01,779 --> 00:29:02,748

I want to show love.

549

00:29:02,748 --> 00:29:07,590

I want to practice love in this world

in a genuine way.

550

00:29:07,590 --> 00:29:11,187

I want to exist and live my life in a

551

00:29:13,504 --> 00:29:14,887

in a real way,

552

00:29:14,887 --> 00:29:17,031

you know, not a fake one, a real one.

553

00:29:17,896 --> 00:29:20,974

And but nobody takes me seriously.

554

00:29:21,009 --> 00:29:23,464

You know, they're like, ever like,

oh, yeah, I just do it for free.

555

00:29:23,464 --> 00:29:24,675

I don't charge anybody.

556

00:29:24,675 --> 00:29:29,275

You know, I'll, I'll spend 12 hours

with somebody and just hang out,

557

00:29:29,793 --> 00:29:32,802

you know, and hear them out.

558

00:29:32,802 --> 00:29:35,984

And they're like, Oh, yeah, well,

that's a really good hobby.

559

00:29:36,295 --> 00:29:38,647

It's not a hobby.

It's my way of life, dude.

560

00:29:39,685 --> 00:29:41,587

And so I'm like, Oh, okay.

561

00:29:41,587 --> 00:29:43,835

Oh, that's what happens is

somebody was like, Oh.

562

00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:48,296

And then I try to tell somebody

else, like, what I do, I do performances

563

00:29:49,057 --> 00:29:51,305

and they're like, Oh,

what kind of performances?

564

00:29:51,305 --> 00:29:55,283

I like all of like really extremely

radically weird ones

565

00:29:55,905 --> 00:29:58,361

And he's like, Oh,

how much do you charge per performance?

566

00:29:58,741 --> 00:29:59,744

And I was like,

567

00:29:59,744 --> 00:30:01,473

$2,000

568

00:30:01,473 --> 00:30:02,718

And then he was like,

569

00:30:02,718 --> 00:30:05,174

Wow, you must be really good

570

00:30:05,589 --> 00:30:09,220

And I was like, Yeah, I'm

the best in the world, baby

571

00:30:09,220 --> 00:30:12,299

I'm Chinese

572

00:30:12,299 --> 00:30:13,578

So that's when it hit me

573

00:30:13,578 --> 00:30:16,725

I was like, Oh, well, maybe

I should start a startup after all, since

574

00:30:16,725 --> 00:30:19,043

everybody thinks they have a startup

575

00:30:19,804 --> 00:30:23,193

and so instead of doing “art”, you know,

576

00:30:24,196 --> 00:30:28,865

why don't I start a company

that makes friends...real ones?

577

00:30:29,557 --> 00:30:34,053

So that hence the title

I'm at 32 minutes.

596

00:31:37,586 --> 00:31:38,831

I want to make this.

597

00:31:38,831 --> 00:31:41,148

This must be a 40 minute piece

598

00:31:41,805 --> 00:31:46,682

supposed to be aired on TV and stuff.

599

00:31:46,682 --> 00:31:50,417

Let's change the view that

600

00:31:50,763 --> 00:32:00,689

this is.

601

00:32:00,689 --> 00:32:04,804

Yeah,

602

00:32:04,804 --> 00:32:15,284

Yeah,

603

00:32:15,284 --> 00:32:18,292

Real Friends LLC is a social platform.

604

00:32:18,292 --> 00:32:21,440

No, it's not a social platform

that connects people.

605

00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:25,452

Yes we connect people - with others

who share similar interests

606

00:32:25,452 --> 00:32:26,247

No, no, no.

607

00:32:26,247 --> 00:32:30,294

Friendships is not about connecting people

with similar interests

608

00:32:30,294 --> 00:32:32,611

Friendships is commitment

609

00:32:33,614 --> 00:32:35,516

It's about what you put in

610

00:32:35,516 --> 00:32:38,732

You know, it's about

611

00:32:38,732 --> 00:32:41,050

Yeah, it's putting in the work,

612

00:32:41,050 --> 00:32:43,955

you know, being there in the hard times

613

00:32:45,096 --> 00:32:47,137

Someone's going through a rough patch,

614

00:32:47,967 --> 00:32:51,494

going through a rough time, times,

seasons, life.

615

00:32:52,981 --> 00:32:55,610

You stick

616

00:32:55,610 --> 00:32:57,339

You stay there. Yeah, you're there.

617

00:32:57,339 --> 00:33:00,521

You show up, you be there

and you go through it with them.

618

00:33:02,112 --> 00:33:04,395

That's real friendship. Yep.

619

00:33:05,709 --> 00:33:06,643

And that's costly

620

00:33:06,643 --> 00:33:08,510

You know, nobody has time to do that

621

00:33:08,510 --> 00:33:13,283

So what I'm saying is, like, you know,

I wanted to make it my business, literally

622

00:33:13,905 --> 00:33:18,609

make it my day job, you know,

to be there for you to, you know,

623

00:33:19,370 --> 00:33:24,904

and just the money or the time thing

is just a way of scheduling, you know,

624

00:33:24,904 --> 00:33:29,918

and putting in the work, making sure

that there is space for that to happen

625

00:33:31,509 --> 00:33:33,965

we’re...at least in America, I don't know

626

00:33:33,965 --> 00:33:37,389

about other parts of the world,

the like, you know, we don't like friends.

627

00:33:37,389 --> 00:33:38,703

We we're scared of them.

628

00:33:38,703 --> 00:33:39,326

They're weird.

629

00:33:39,326 --> 00:33:42,438

You know,

We can't really we need these, like,

630

00:33:42,438 --> 00:33:46,104

kind of,

like, common activities or whatever.

631

00:33:46,104 --> 00:33:47,557

It's a Oh, yeah, yeah.

632

00:33:47,557 --> 00:33:51,638

I love I love golf, I love knitting.

633

00:33:53,056 --> 00:33:56,791

It's yeah, sure

634

00:33:56,791 --> 00:34:00,180

But like,

I just want to cut the middle person

635

00:34:00,215 --> 00:34:03,224

and just be like,

Hey, tell me about your life

636

00:34:03,224 --> 00:34:05,334

Let me tell you about my life. Actually.

637

00:34:05,334 --> 00:34:06,267

I mean, I just did that

638

00:34:06,267 --> 00:34:10,729

I am more than happy to share anything

and everything that I have

639

00:34:11,766 --> 00:34:13,600

I believe in

640

00:34:13,600 --> 00:34:16,505

This is not a job for me. It's

a mission. It's a it's.

641

00:34:16,505 --> 00:34:18,753

It's a belief. It's a faith.

642

00:34:18,926 --> 00:34:21,035

It's it's not a religion. It's.

643

00:34:21,139 --> 00:34:23,041

It's something that I

644

00:34:24,771 --> 00:34:27,434

am very serious about

645

00:34:27,434 --> 00:34:29,543

Yeah, Yeah

646

00:34:29,682 --> 00:34:30,996

Avatar thing is just an

647

00:34:30,996 --> 00:34:31,445

Avatar

648

00:34:31,445 --> 00:34:33,555

Avatar is the thing that holds space

649

00:34:34,212 --> 00:34:39,850

You know, our human connections

can be awkward, especially with strangers

650

00:34:40,299 --> 00:34:44,865

And so we offer, like, a free

consultation, you know, where you kind of

651

00:34:44,899 --> 00:34:48,669

get to know me and get to know you

a little bit to whatever extent. And

652

00:34:49,672 --> 00:34:53,615

and we kind of go from there

and we develop, you know, like,

653

00:34:54,479 --> 00:34:57,592

you know, do you want to

654

00:34:57,661 --> 00:35:01,569

There are a couple of streams,

I guess you can say.

655

00:35:02,226 --> 00:35:06,377

1) I could come to you in person

B) I could hang out with you

656

00:35:06,377 --> 00:35:09,247

in a virtual digital space,

you know, and not

657

00:35:09,800 --> 00:35:12,325

everybody hates ;o23w;4rup9q8a23w7r ZOOM

658

00:35:12,325 --> 00:35:14,850

You know, we all zoom anymore

659

00:35:14,850 --> 00:35:17,409

But I'm building a 3D environment where,

660

00:35:18,862 --> 00:35:19,726

yeah, I could kind

661

00:35:19,726 --> 00:35:23,220

of meet you virtually there...buncha clouds

662

00:35:23,496 --> 00:35:27,473

I'm actually I'm making an ocean

either that or a pool of money I’m not sure lol

663

00:35:28,373 --> 00:35:30,759

but uh, yeah.

664

00:35:31,382 --> 00:35:33,249

And then the third one would be like,

665

00:35:33,249 --> 00:35:36,396

there's a texting option

where I love texting. So.

666

00:35:36,396 --> 00:35:39,509

And then text, you know,

we can get to know each other that way

667

00:35:39,509 --> 00:35:42,898

or kind of,

you know, talk about life and stuff.

668

00:35:44,282 --> 00:35:47,222

Yeah. So

669

00:35:47,671 --> 00:35:50,369

I'm Chinese, so

670

00:35:50,369 --> 00:35:54,208

and I want to be

your real friend for real.

671

00:35:55,280 --> 00:35:58,704

And no one will take me seriously

if I'm not an LLC

672

00:35:58,704 --> 00:36:01,021

So I'm an LLC

673

00:36:01,021 --> 00:36:04,238

I'm an LLC. I'm an LLC.

674

00:36:18,348 --> 00:36:20,078

I can’t remember what I said

675

00:36:20,078 --> 00:36:22,118

I mean, this is the third time

676

00:36:22,118 --> 00:36:24,850

I was trying to record this earlier and,

677

00:36:25,231 --> 00:36:28,689

you know, duh, As China

record this earlier

678

00:36:28,689 --> 00:36:32,701

and it basically just recorded my audio,

not the video.

679

00:36:32,701 --> 00:36:38,857

And so you couldn't see anything.

680

00:36:38,857 --> 00:36:42,316

I think the face reading thing

is getting a little glitchy.

681

00:36:43,492 --> 00:36:48,299

Yeah, it needs a like a

682

00:36:49,129 --> 00:37:23,507

better view of the mouth. Hmm.

683

00:37:23,507 --> 00:37:27,968

Eric, I should have been talking like this

the whole time.

684

00:37:27,968 --> 00:37:29,317

This looks good.

685

00:37:29,559 --> 00:37:31,600

Yeah. So, like,

686

00:37:32,257 --> 00:37:33,329

Real Friends LLC

687

00:37:33,329 --> 00:37:35,300

688

00:37:43,566 --> 00:37:46,229

Are you curious

692

00:37:48,304 --> 00:37:51,279

WANNA BE A REAL FRIEND?

693

00:37:51,383 --> 00:37:53,492

CONTACT ME FOR MORE INFORMATION

694

00:37:54,149 --> 00:38:04,283

hello@realfriends.llc

695

00:38:04,525 --> 00:38:06,323

Hello, my name is Chinese Room

696

00:38:06,323 --> 00:38:07,741

I am an avatar

697

00:38:07,741 --> 00:38:10,646

Not just any avatar but

698

00:38:10,646 --> 00:38:15,523

human-driven avatar that's,

you know, driven by a human being,

699

00:38:15,523 --> 00:38:19,362

not AI driven, you know, a

got like ChatGPT or Replika or whatever

700

00:38:19,846 --> 00:38:23,166

I I'm driven by a real human being

701

00:38:23,166 --> 00:38:25,311

And I think it does make a difference

702

00:38:25,622 --> 00:38:30,913

An avatar is something

that holds space, uh, you know, um, and

703

00:38:32,193 --> 00:38:34,234

just not unlike a room,

704

00:38:34,545 --> 00:38:38,799

you know, I kind of see those two things

sort of like in parallel or in tandem

705

00:38:38,799 --> 00:38:43,917

or whatever, you know, a room or something

that houses something, you know, that

706

00:38:43,917 --> 00:38:47,168

encapsulates or encases or, you know,

707

00:38:47,929 --> 00:38:51,111

people things or objects or experiences.

708

00:38:51,111 --> 00:38:55,331

And I see the avatar as a placeholder

709

00:38:56,091 --> 00:38:58,409

in another metaverse as, you know,

710

00:38:58,443 --> 00:38:59,688

like uh

711

00:38:59,930 --> 00:39:01,729

a human connection

712

00:39:02,351 --> 00:39:06,225

post-2023 in the future,

713

00:39:06,225 --> 00:39:10,237

I think in 20 years, yeah, human.

714

00:39:11,724 --> 00:39:15,667

It wouldn't be uncommon to kind of uh develop

715

00:39:15,667 --> 00:39:18,088

more of like a aa more more

716

00:39:19,091 --> 00:39:22,653

intimate kind of relations with with

717

00:39:22,860 --> 00:39:24,244

718

00:39:24,417 --> 00:39:26,665

I’m not talking about sex

and the sex bots or something like that

719

00:39:27,045 --> 00:39:30,919

But I'm talking about like, uh yeah,

just like the way

720

00:39:30,919 --> 00:39:35,415

we interact with technology,

you know, we'll need to depend on them

721

00:39:35,415 --> 00:39:39,288

for friendships even, or for companionship

722

00:39:39,634 --> 00:39:41,018

And uh

723

00:39:41,329 --> 00:39:44,165

I might be kind of 20 years

early, but like, I think

724

00:39:46,275 --> 00:39:48,592

I kind of feel like

725

00:39:50,148 --> 00:39:52,915

humans connecting with humans

is still important

726

00:39:53,537 --> 00:39:56,304

You know, as I see in friendships,

I don't want to lose that

727

00:39:56,304 --> 00:40:00,178

I guess. Um, so

728

00:40:01,285 --> 00:40:02,115

that's

729

00:40:02,979 --> 00:40:07,475

one of the reasons yeah

why I'm starting real friends LLC.

730

00:40:07,475 --> 00:40:13,666

My name is Tim Tsang

I am the driver of Chinese Room

731

00:40:13,666 --> 00:40:16,571

Yeah, sounded weird but I don't care

732

00:40:18,300 --> 00:40:20,272

I think it's important

733

00:40:20,272 --> 00:40:24,526

I think it's kind of hitting a need

in our society, in our day to day where,

734

00:40:25,805 --> 00:40:30,440

yeah, we, we lack genuine friendships,

you know, not just

735

00:40:30,474 --> 00:40:33,898

people are being fake or whatever,

but people don't have time to be real

736

00:40:34,590 --> 00:40:38,256

You know, it's always about

what can I get, you know, when's

737

00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:41,058

what can I get out of this person?

We're going to get out of that person

738

00:40:41,058 --> 00:40:42,233

What will they give me?

739

00:40:42,233 --> 00:40:44,170

What will they provide for me?

740

00:40:44,170 --> 00:40:48,666

What will this do for my social status,

my career and my family's standing,

741

00:40:48,666 --> 00:40:50,119

you know, or whatever. And

742

00:40:51,917 --> 00:40:53,370

that's important.

743

00:40:53,370 --> 00:40:55,237

These things are important.

They're not bad.

744

00:40:55,237 --> 00:40:57,900

I'm just saying that

745

00:40:57,900 --> 00:40:59,146

I think

746

00:41:00,564 --> 00:41:02,258

getting to know a human being

747

00:41:02,258 --> 00:41:05,025

just for the sake of getting to know them

748

00:41:06,339 --> 00:41:09,106

because it's a as a human need,

749

00:41:09,659 --> 00:41:12,668

you know I think I think that's worth

something

750

00:41:13,429 --> 00:41:16,680

I don't mean money, although I'm

charging you money to be your friend

751

00:41:17,130 --> 00:41:19,447

But it's it's

752

00:41:22,733 --> 00:41:23,874

there's something there

753

00:41:23,874 --> 00:41:25,638

Yeah, I don't know exactly what, but.

754

00:41:25,638 --> 00:41:30,376

But the more I live, I mean,

755

00:41:30,999 --> 00:41:33,869

every day

I feel like living in Silicon Valley,

756

00:41:33,869 --> 00:41:38,400

but just in general,

I think in life, you know, like, as things

757

00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:42,896

become more kind of tech oriented

or cloud based or,

758

00:41:43,657 --> 00:41:46,631

you know, whatever,

759

00:41:46,631 --> 00:41:50,678

I think like kind of

I don't just want to preserve,

760

00:41:51,784 --> 00:41:55,381

know, human relationships,

but I hope that they can thrive.

761

00:41:55,416 --> 00:41:58,494

I hope that they could become

something more

762

00:41:58,805 --> 00:42:03,128

than a product,

you know, more than a serve--

763

00:42:03,543 --> 00:42:06,068

serve..well I’m providing a service

but more than a service

764

00:42:06,068 --> 00:42:11,152

Yeah, I think I hope

that people would learn to be kind

765

00:42:11,844 --> 00:42:15,752

You know, you see somebody

without somewhere to live

766

00:42:15,752 --> 00:42:19,729

You see somebody that’s hungry,

you give ‘em what you have,

767

00:42:20,075 --> 00:42:22,358

you know,

if it's safe, you know, whatever,

768

00:42:23,361 --> 00:42:23,914

maybe not idk

769

00:42:25,194 --> 00:42:26,369

but like

770

00:42:26,369 --> 00:42:28,756

it's not just politics

or a better political system

771

00:42:28,756 --> 00:42:29,413

not going to do it.

772

00:42:29,413 --> 00:42:33,252

You know, I think we live in it's

not even capitalism anymore.

773

00:42:33,425 --> 00:42:36,088

Right, there's a Greek guy talks about..Yanis

774

00:42:37,056 --> 00:42:41,172

What’s his last name,

the previous Greek finance minister

775

00:42:42,002 --> 00:42:44,319

He's saying we basically live in a

776

00:42:44,769 --> 00:42:46,878

a condition of

777

00:42:46,878 --> 00:42:48,227

techno feudalism

778

00:42:48,539 --> 00:42:51,790

You know, we it's we have the techno lords

779

00:42:52,378 --> 00:42:56,389

like Zuckerberg and Elon

Musk and Jeff Bezos and all those people

780

00:42:56,389 --> 00:42:56,770

Right

781

00:42:56,770 --> 00:42:59,848

And and then we pay them all taxes

basically

782

00:42:59,848 --> 00:43:00,159

Right

783

00:43:00,159 --> 00:43:01,716

With their private information

784

00:43:01,716 --> 00:43:04,794

We, we, they know where we live,

they know our shopping habits,

785

00:43:04,794 --> 00:43:06,246

they know what we like to eat

786

00:43:06,246 --> 00:43:10,777

They know, you know, where we shop,

You know who we talk to

787

00:43:10,777 --> 00:43:13,613

They know our social circles,

They know our habits

788

00:43:13,647 --> 00:43:15,550

And and everything else

789

00:43:15,550 --> 00:43:16,691

And, you know, that's a

790

00:43:17,798 --> 00:43:18,870

that's kind of a big deal

791

00:43:18,870 --> 00:43:21,602

And then also, like for me,

I mean, I'm a Uber driver and so on

792

00:43:21,775 --> 00:43:26,479

My life is tied to the rental car

that I rent for $2,000 every month

793

00:43:26,479 --> 00:43:28,623

And I try to make six grand

794

00:43:28,623 --> 00:43:31,874

But it's not even that, you know,

you can't even get that sometimes

795

00:43:31,874 --> 00:43:34,537

And it's

so it's like that's like what, 40%,

796

00:43:35,332 --> 00:43:38,998

35, 30% of my income goes to

797

00:43:39,967 --> 00:43:43,702

I don't know who Hertz is

but it goes to somebody

798

00:43:43,702 --> 00:43:46,434

I don't know some of those

like techno lords or whatever

799

00:43:46,849 --> 00:43:52,002

And so it's like kind of like the Sir, I'm

basically a serf in feudal times

800

00:43:52,002 --> 00:43:54,458

It's like a farmer

tied to their land, right?

801

00:43:54,493 --> 00:44:00,026

Part of 10%, 20, 30% of your crops, you

know, belongs to the king, you know, and,

802

00:44:01,479 --> 00:44:03,727

but friendships don't belong to the king

803

00:44:03,727 --> 00:44:05,110

That's my point

804

00:44:05,491 --> 00:44:07,635

And they can't touch that

805

00:44:07,635 --> 00:44:09,226

Yeah, you can't touch that

806

00:44:09,226 --> 00:44:12,788

I mean, you can you know,

I want to be there for you, but they

807

00:44:13,341 --> 00:44:14,967

they can't touch that

808

00:44:15,071 --> 00:44:16,281

Yeah

809

00:44:16,281 --> 00:44:18,149

And

810

00:44:18,356 --> 00:44:20,328

I don't need to tell them

who I'm friends with

811

00:44:20,431 --> 00:44:21,676

Who's that? Yeah

812

00:44:21,676 --> 00:44:27,833

You know what i mean? So, like, I, I feel like, um

813

00:44:27,833 --> 00:44:31,360

uh, hiding in plain

sight is the best way to go,

814

00:44:31,983 --> 00:44:34,888

You know, like uh, why not make a company

815

00:44:35,199 --> 00:44:39,419

that encourages friendships to occur?

816

00:44:40,180 --> 00:44:43,500

You know, there's value attached to it um

817

00:44:44,849 --> 00:44:47,270

monetary, but also, you know,

818

00:44:47,270 --> 00:44:50,106

it's like a good thing

819

00:44:50,417 --> 00:44:55,847

It's a special thing

820

00:44:55,847 --> 00:44:56,677

Yeah, but that.

821

00:44:56,677 --> 00:45:01,864

That I think, that's what I want to offer

the world and I want to invite you to it

822

00:45:02,107 --> 00:45:05,254

And even those

836

00:46:11,519 --> 00:46:14,148

who don't

837

00:46:14,148 --> 00:46:29,123

do the.

838

00:46:29,123 --> 00:46:33,619

Yeah, I mean, that's

kind of this just I'm Chinese.

839

00:46:33,757 --> 00:46:34,414

Got to think

840

00:46:35,660 --> 00:46:37,735

what does it mean to be real?

841

00:46:39,187 --> 00:46:41,470

What does it mean to be real?

842

00:46:41,470 --> 00:46:45,240

Well, a real thing,

something that's real is.

843

00:46:45,413 --> 00:46:50,012

I mean, it used to be, I guess, like what

you could see and touch and taste or,

844

00:46:50,047 --> 00:46:53,436

you know, the sensory stuff and whatever.

845

00:46:54,474 --> 00:47:00,353

But I guess,

yeah, reality real ness is felt

846

00:47:02,636 --> 00:47:04,746

as a consistent

847

00:47:06,198 --> 00:47:08,550

you can count on it

848

00:47:08,827 --> 00:47:14,153

real, you can count on it existing,

849

00:47:15,190 --> 00:47:18,338

not ghosting.

850

00:47:18,338 --> 00:47:21,520

I'm trying to be the opposite of ghosting,

I guess

851

00:47:22,523 --> 00:47:25,116

I'm an avatar driven by real human

852

00:47:25,116 --> 00:47:29,440

being that wants to not ghost people,

but take your money

853

00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:31,930

and offer my sincere friendship in return

854

00:47:33,763 --> 00:47:37,152

or something like that.

855

00:47:37,152 --> 00:47:40,438

Uh, because again, on

856

00:47:40,438 --> 00:47:42,617

what does it mean to be a friend?

857

00:47:42,617 --> 00:47:43,516

Well,

858

00:47:44,450 --> 00:47:46,248

to be a friend

859

00:47:46,248 --> 00:47:50,052

means that it's not a one way.

860

00:47:50,191 --> 00:47:51,401

Friendships are not one way.

861

00:47:51,401 --> 00:47:52,577

You know what I mean?

862

00:47:52,577 --> 00:47:56,900

I'm providing a service of friendship,

sure, but it's.

863

00:47:56,900 --> 00:48:01,396

It has the potential

to kind of grow into something two way

864

00:48:02,019 --> 00:48:06,515

where I'm not only and curious about you,

believe me, you're curious about me,

865

00:48:06,515 --> 00:48:11,461

then, you know, and I'm ready

to kind of open up, you know, and my life

866

00:48:12,567 --> 00:48:15,023

to kind of, uh,

867

00:48:15,023 --> 00:48:19,450

yeah, live through this thing,

you know, um.

868

00:48:19,450 --> 00:48:21,525

Yeah. I want to learn about you. Yeah.

869

00:48:21,525 --> 00:48:24,638

If you want to learn about me,

I'm here and

870

00:48:25,848 --> 00:48:28,684

I want to be there for you.

871

00:48:28,684 --> 00:48:32,869

I want to, uh, get to know you.

872

00:48:33,180 --> 00:48:35,117

I want you to get to know yourself.

873

00:48:35,117 --> 00:48:37,884

I want to get to know myself.

874

00:48:37,987 --> 00:48:39,682

I think self-knowledge, common

875

00:48:39,682 --> 00:48:43,936

knowledge, communal knowledge idk the term

876

00:48:44,178 --> 00:48:47,775

But, like, you know, I think that's

877

00:48:47,775 --> 00:48:49,262

becoming more and more rare.

878

00:48:49,262 --> 00:48:51,683

Yeah, like, genuine human

879

00:48:53,412 --> 00:48:55,038

relations. Yeah.

880

00:48:55,038 --> 00:48:57,251

That isn't about sex.

881

00:48:57,251 --> 00:48:59,499

The sex component is about exchange,

882

00:48:59,499 --> 00:49:02,820

You know, Not that sex is bad, but, like,

just it's like, Oh,

883

00:49:03,269 --> 00:49:05,828

I like what this person can give me

884

00:49:05,828 --> 00:49:09,598

or how they can make me feel.

885

00:49:09,598 --> 00:49:15,270

But like, being genuinely,

like, interested in somebody, you know,

886

00:49:15,339 --> 00:49:21,150

that isn't just a one person kinda deal,

like just romantic or whatever.

887

00:49:21,150 --> 00:49:26,753

And the traditional notion of it but like,

just like chilling with your neighbor,

888

00:49:27,064 --> 00:49:30,315

you know, like, Hey,

what's your dog's name?

889

00:49:30,903 --> 00:49:33,877

Oh, yeah, my mom's in the hospital.

890

00:49:34,327 --> 00:49:34,915

La la la.

891

00:49:35,987 --> 00:49:37,301

Oh, really?

892

00:49:37,509 --> 00:49:39,618

Yeah Sucks.

893

00:49:40,898 --> 00:49:41,244

My mom.

894

00:49:41,244 --> 00:49:44,702

Then I'm losing that, you know,

and then the like.

895

00:49:45,982 --> 00:49:48,852

That's what techno lords can't touch

896

00:49:48,852 --> 00:49:50,858

That's what I'm talking about

897

00:49:51,758 --> 00:49:54,248

And that's what I'm talking about

898

00:49:54,248 --> 00:49:56,150

Cause I'm Chinese

899

00:50:00,681 --> 00:50:01,476

not blocking them.

900

00:50:01,476 --> 00:50:05,799

Like, okay, where I'm LLC.

901

00:50:06,007 --> 00:50:08,013

Well, this is an LLC because,

902

00:50:08,912 --> 00:50:12,889

you know, I'm the same as Google

Me and Google, we are both LLC’s

903

00:50:12,889 --> 00:50:17,697

so we have to pay $800 a month...or a year,

a year in taxes.

904

00:50:18,146 --> 00:50:19,737

It doesn’t matter how big you are or how small you are

905

00:50:19,737 --> 00:50:26,204

Your, um,

if you're getting an LLC at work,

906

00:50:26,204 --> 00:50:27,657

I want people to take me seriously.

907

00:50:27,657 --> 00:50:29,801

I don't want this to be a hobby.

908

00:50:29,801 --> 00:50:32,707

You know, I think this is

909

00:50:32,707 --> 00:50:34,643

elected to be a little bit more than that.

910

00:50:34,643 --> 00:50:37,479

I want people to take me seriously. And

911

00:50:38,586 --> 00:50:39,209

so in our

912

00:50:39,209 --> 00:50:42,702

world, the way we exist is through

corporate entities.

913

00:50:43,186 --> 00:50:48,304

My phone is about to die because

the temperature is going really high.

914

00:50:48,304 --> 00:50:52,109

So I think up here,

thank you for watching.

915

00:50:52,109 --> 00:50:54,219

Thank you for watching. I love you.

916

00:50:55,394 --> 00:50:56,882

Thank you for watching.

917

00:50:56,882 --> 00:50:58,057

Thank you for watching.

918

00:50:58,057 --> 00:51:00,029

Thank you for watching.

919

00:51:00,029 --> 00:51:08,883

Okay. Bye.
