- 11:11she reverted it back.
- 11:16Let me get the keys in the chat because
- 11:19I think I messed up.
- 11:23Sniper war giving me sleepless nights.
- 11:29Let's go ahead and get the keys in there
- 11:31for you.
- 11:35The birds and the peace. Absolutely.
- 11:39777
- 11:46All right, let's see how she does here.
- 11:51I think for um we should store this
- 11:54data. So, you know, if we've already
- 11:56checked in the last 30 minutes, then we
- 11:58don't need to pull it again.
- 11:59Essentially, this would help with
- 12:00debugging and these updates that we're
- 12:01making, you know. I don't need to do
- 12:04that. I don't need to do that.
- 12:06Well, yeah, actually, I probably should.
- 12:09Let's do it.
- 16:39locked in.
- 16:41We're still here. We're still here.
- 17:10Okay, so order books are flying.
- 17:15Let's get over here to um
- 17:20we have the uh stocks here already. So,
- 17:22let's just go to BTC
- 17:245 minute here.
- 17:27Okay, so this looks better now. So,
- 17:30Confluence up, SanDisk and others,
- 17:41fresh breakouts here. FTT.
- 17:46All right. So, to be honest, bro, I
- 17:48think this is a fire thing here. So,
- 17:51let's go ahead and say
- 17:54PWD.
- 17:56PWD and then what, gang?
- 18:00I brew liquid. Awesome. Okay.
- 18:05How do I do this? Should I do this? Yes,
- 18:08I think I should do it this way. Let's
- 18:10say copy. Let's go ahead and add a
- 18:12script here to the app. Okay. Enter
- 18:15path. New script, please. Let's say uh
- 18:17cond activate tflow, bro. Yes. And then
- 18:21let's go say um Python run this gang.
- 18:24Whoa. All the way. Hey, I don't have all
- 18:27of it yet.
- 18:30Um,
- 18:33I need a better way to do this.
- 18:46Okay, I figured out a better way.
- 18:51Paste that in there.
- 18:54and paste that in there on it as well.
- 19:00I figured it out. Okay, now I'm going to
- 19:03add a script because I think it's fireb.
- 19:06New terminal, new script. Yes, Tflow,
- 19:09bro. Yes, Python. Yes. Oh, that's broken
- 19:13there.
- 19:17Tlow. Python.
- 19:21Trender scanner
- 19:23hyperlquid
- 19:28trending
- 19:31a script. Okay.
- 19:41Okay. There we go. Now it should be here
- 19:44forever.
- 19:50Beautiful. I can get back to it easily.

- 20:06Um, I should be all right. I just got to
- 20:08make sure that I'm able to fall asleep
- 20:10tonight. We'll get a real good workout
- 20:12in after this.

- 21:207 day 57%.
- 21:25Damn.
- 21:41Indeed.
- 21:55All
- 22:08right. This is what I do need. I do need
- 22:11you to have um
- 22:14I don't want the [snorts] Let's put the
- 22:16Confluence up top a little bit more, but
- 22:17I want top 10.
- 22:2624hour breakouts separated between
- 22:30crypto and HIPP3.
- 22:40Nah, I feel like
- 22:43do I have everything I need? MU. Yes,
- 22:45Ton. MU again.
- 22:49Hey, Lun. Oh, Luna. Interesting.
- 22:5516% 7 days on the on there.
- 23:0187%.
- 23:12I feel like this is good for now. This
- 23:14is good for now because I can see
- 23:17exactly
- 23:20what's breaking out and what's breaking
- 23:21down. What's trending up? What's
- 23:23trending down?
- 23:26Like meta seem to be trending down.
- 23:31XYZ Meta
- 23:33down in 7 days, 10%. Wow, that's a lot
- 23:36of money though. 1.4% down today. WFY
- 23:41down 12%.
- 23:45Top 10 fresh breakdowns meta. But what's
- 23:49that looking like over here?
- 24:0011 million in volume.
- 24:03Holy hell.
- 24:14on the daily,
- 24:25November 25th.
- 24:29November 20th of 2025 is when it started
- 24:35out over here. Okay.
- 24:42I'm curious about this.
- 24:46I want you to analyze meta when it comes
- 24:49to the AI trade. Where are they in this
- 24:53trade? You can see that obviously Amazon
- 24:55is benefiting quite a lot as they have a
- 24:59multi-prong approach to
- 25:02AI and capturing you know the great
- 25:04efficiency
- 25:07meta is breaking down right now. It's
- 25:09kind of interesting to me as I don't
- 25:12think that they've had the benefit of
- 25:16people realizing that they are an AI
- 25:19company.
- 25:22But that's just my bias. I want you to
- 25:24look at the the numbers, the pees, the
- 25:26earnings, the infrastructure they have
- 25:28built out, the approaches that they are
- 25:30taking to AI.
- 25:34They're building application layer, but
- 25:35also they're on the infrastructure side,
- 25:39not infrastructure, but they're on the
- 25:40the the model side. I'm be curious what
- 25:43they're if they have any exposure to the
- 25:45infrastructure side. Obviously, we know
- 25:47the Facebook ads business is [ __ ]
- 25:48massive
- 25:50and they're in everybody's pockets.
- 25:56So, there's no doubt in like a 10-year
- 25:59horizon that Meta is going to be still
- 26:01here cooking. And what I like most about
- 26:03Meta is that they got Marky Mark, they
- 26:05got Mark Zuckerberg, the [ __ ] [ __ ]
- 26:06founder, still cooking. Amazon doesn't
- 26:09have that.
- 26:11So, you know,
- 26:13I want you to do a full analysis here.
- 26:16kind of like the exposure to AI,
- 26:18metaverse,
- 26:22Amazon and Google. Those are two good
- 26:25comparisons.
- 26:27Behemoths
- 26:28launch three agents to do a in-depth
- 26:31here and then um your analysis I'll put
- 26:35it for each of them and then a
- 26:37consensus. Thank you. [snorts]
- 26:41All right, dude. So, interesting stuff.
- 26:43Interesting stuff.
- 26:46already. So, I think this is something I
- 26:48should push to the GitHub. So, I'll do
- 26:50that right now.
- 27:00Let's go ahead and just get this to the
- 27:01GitHub.
- 27:06Get odd dot
- 27:09get commit slash um
- 27:12hip
- 27:15three
- 27:17and crypto
- 27:19scanner
- 27:27get push.
- 27:32Oh, and some training MCPS, dude. So
- 27:34much fire.
- 28:07I should be on GitHub now. I pushed it.
- 28:10Okay.
- 28:15break down
- 28:18meta die.
- 28:20Let's see another 15% push down on that.
- 28:23I don't know. I can't even see a big
- 28:25enough chart yet. Let's go ahead and see
- 28:27if Trading View has uh more of the day
- 28:30top we need. Trading.
- 28:33Damn, my fingers are off. Trading View.
- 28:46Okay, let's look at the daily here.
- 29:18And okay, let's look at meta meta
- 29:20meadow.
- 29:31Damn, dude.
- 29:35Buying some leaps here. Jesus.
- 29:40That was a good idea.
- 29:42300% ago, thousand days ago.
- 29:46Okay, so Meta has been going sideways
- 29:48for how many years? A year and a half.
- 29:52Okay, so they're not getting any of
- 29:54this. They got no AI
- 29:57fire yet. And you know that
- 29:59[ __ ] market is ruthless. He's
- 30:01going to fire half the company in a
- 30:03[ __ ] text message.
- 30:06He's going to fire half the company with
- 30:07a text message.
- 30:11This [ __ ] is just trying to
- 30:13build. Just a builder. True aist.
- 30:17Just a builder, dude.
- 30:30I'd love to see I'd love to see these
- 30:32tested.
- 30:34Love to see that.
- 30:36Love to see it. Love to see it.
- 30:41Very curious about this.
- 30:51Coinbase laid off 14% today. No way. For
- 30:54real? Wow.
- 30:57Thank you for sharing that.
- 30:59base or it's coin.
- 31:06You ain't getting any love for it, huh?
- 31:09Jesus, dude.
- 31:11Okay, so no love for the firing.
- 31:19Interesting. That's like that's data
- 31:21right there. That's for sure data.
- 31:27And crypto is not down today.
- 31:31On top of that,
- 31:37it's up 2%. Coinbase fires 14% of their
- 31:41staff.
- 31:49Coinbase tie uh PayPal and Coinbase
- 31:53tie deep layoffs to AI. So they're still
- 31:55using that.
- 31:58They use using that little excuse to
- 32:00chop people off. When base t Yeah.
- 32:04Oh, PayPal down bad, too.
- 32:08Okay.
- 32:14Holy hell, dude.
- 32:18PayPal.
- 32:21What the hell is going on with PayPal?
- 32:25PayPal cooked.
- 32:28It's been around since 20
- 32:35been around forever.
- 32:42Throw PayPal into the mix. I know it's a
- 32:44little different of a company, but I
- 32:45just want it I want it in the mix of the
- 32:47comparison. So, run it back with PayPal
- 32:50in there as well. Why [snorts] not,
- 32:51dude? Why not? Yeah, we can do whatever
- 32:52the [ __ ] we want to do.
- 32:55Ask the questions you want to ask. I
- 32:57love AR.
- 32:59I love AR. Oh god.
- 33:06Power out.
- 33:08Power outage. Maybe.
- 33:12Yeah, that power outage right there, but
- 33:13we'll see.
- 33:16This works still.
- 33:19Okay, looks like we're Gucci. So let's
- 33:22look through this because this is
- 33:23interesting.
- 33:31Meta in the AI trade the three agent
- 33:32consensus price market cap of 610 to
- 33:351.55 trillion trailing P 222 4p 20x
- 33:39cheapest of the mag 7
- 33:422025 revenue 200.9 billion 2022 22%
- 33:48year-over-year
- 33:49[snorts]
- 33:50Q1 revenue 56 billion
- 33:54up 33% accelerating
- 34:00it's accelerating rated.
- 34:04Okay. Gross margin 82% versus Amazon's
- 34:0650 and Google's 58. Damn.
- 34:10Recent draw down 10% post Q1 print 28%
- 34:14off 2025 five highs.
- 34:17Cash verse debt why it's breaking down.
- 34:21The Q1 2026 print was a beat on revenue
- 34:2433%. By 33% but the stock dropped 10%
- 34:27because capex raised midcycle by 10
- 34:30billion. You got to [ __ ] you got to
- 34:32throw the cash down, B. You got to throw
- 34:34the cash down. They doing the same thing
- 34:37that they did to Amazon, huh? Okay.
- 34:42Do the same thing you did to Amazon.
- 34:43They get smoked. Capex. The [ __ ] They
- 34:47got unlimited money and they're going to
- 34:48have unlimited more in the future.
- 34:50Open-ended infrastructure commitment
- 34:53Q1 EPS 1044 was inflated by uh 8 billion
- 34:56onetime tax benefit
- 34:59clean EPS was 7.31
- 35:03ad volume flat price did the work 12%
- 35:06pricing [snorts]
- 35:08dio declined for the first time ever
- 35:11okay I ran internet disruptions blamed
- 35:14but a milestone moment that is actually
- 35:17pretty big can't have decline use right.
- 35:22Daily active users.
- 35:26Daily active users.
- 35:54So met Meta is a standalone AI story
- 35:57llama 4
- 35:59open weight
- 36:03meta assistant uh we don't none of us
- 36:06use any of these ad AI is the actual
- 36:09revenue driver
- 36:11their ad business of course
- 36:12infrastructure layer you asked about
- 36:14this yes metahas serious Infrastructure
- 36:16exposure much more than people realize.
- 36:18MTIA custom silicone four generations in
- 36:21two years.
- 36:24Six-month cadence with industry 12 to 24
- 36:26months. Hundreds of thousands deployed
- 36:29for ranking racks and ads.
- 36:32Broadcom deal extended through 2029.
- 36:41Promeththeus, huh? [snorts]
- 36:44They got a 1 gawatt supercluster online
- 36:46in 2026. 6.6 gawatt nuclear secured by
- 36:502026.
- 36:58Meta does not sell their external
- 37:00compute.
- 37:05Metaverse Amazon here 1.5 trillion verse
- 37:082.9 trillion. Ford PE is 20 versus
- 37:11Amazon's 32. Growth in 2025 was 22 verse
- 37:15Amazon's 12. Gross margin 82% verse
- 37:19Amazon's 50%. Revenue employee is 2.5
- 37:22million verse Amazon's 455.
- 37:252026 capex 125 verse 200 billion.
- 37:31AI infrastructure they've got a a
- 37:33backlog here on Amazon.
- 37:36Founder controller is Zuck.
- 37:39Now it's Jassie or Amazon
- 37:43social mover
- 37:46direct. Honest verdict. Amazon wins on
- 37:48revenue visibility 364 contracted
- 37:51backlog underwriting capex. Meta wins on
- 37:53margin economics. Every incremental
- 37:56dollar drops to 82% growth.
- 38:00Amazon diversification over meta
- 38:02concentration. Meta capital efficiency
- 38:04over Amazon per dollar of revenue. If AI
- 38:08works perfectly, Meta wins more in
- 38:11percentage terms, smaller base, higher
- 38:14margins, founder bets. AI disappoints,
- 38:17Amazon safer, diversified, AWS backlog,
- 38:19floor professional management,
- 38:23agent 3, metaverse, Google. So market
- 38:25cap 1.5. Wow. Okay, we seen all this.
- 38:31The valuation gap is inverted from
- 38:33history. Meta at 20x with 33% gross
- 38:35margins versus Google at 32x with 22%
- 38:38growth. That's a real anomaly.
- 38:43The market is punishing Meta for capex
- 38:45visibility and rewarding Google for AI
- 38:48execution.
- 38:52Honest verdict.
- 38:54Both AI hopes deliver. Google wins
- 38:57absolute dollar.
- 39:01All three agents converged on the same
- 39:03call. Meta is the better riskadjusted AI
- 39:05trade right now. The K's cheapest
- 39:08forward multiple,
- 39:13highest gross margin,
- 39:15fastest revenue growth.
- 39:18They're accelerated, founder controlled
- 39:19with proven willingness to make 5 to 10
- 39:21year bets.
- 39:26They won the FCC case in November.
- 39:30Real infrastructure being built.
- 39:32Manhattan size data centers.
- 39:37Capex peak likely within 18 months.
- 39:42Auctionality on smart glasses. The risk
- 39:45125 capex. Pure faith bet on captive
- 39:49monetization.
- 39:50Reality lab still hemorrhaging 20
- 39:53billion a year.
- 39:55Zuck is it's a pet project. It just he
- 39:58just won't quit on. [snorts] Keep going,
- 40:00Zuck. Keep going, [ __ ] Keep
- 40:02going. I'm a [ __ ] meta guy now. I'm a
- 40:05meta guy.
- 40:08Llama is falling behind. Yeah, their AI
- 40:10is kind of trash. But
- 40:12it's not trash. I I'm just don't use it.
- 40:14I don't I can't give you I can't give
- 40:16you an honest review. So, I just if if
- 40:19I'm not using it, then I it's just it's
- 40:22cooked, you know? If it's not Opus 4.7,
- 40:24it's cooked. I guess GPT 5.5. People
- 40:26saying it's sick, but I'm not using
- 40:27that. I'm not using that.
- 40:32I tell this fire far like you must get
- 40:35off of Opus right now. Once I hear that,
- 40:38okay, until then.
- 40:42Wait,
- 40:44not using 5.5. Not using 3.1.
- 40:53That's good to know. Gemini 3.1 Pro
- 40:58the 5-year price target synthesized
- 41:10how meta fits uh your existing book you
- 41:12already own AI infrastructure exposure
- 41:14through thesis on Amazon you're
- 41:16considering Uber for AI application
- 41:18autonomy meta is the missing piece the
- 41:20highest margin AI application layer with
- 41:22hidden infrastructure optional ity at
- 41:24the cheapest price of the three.
- 41:28The honest pairing logic.
- 41:31My honest single line take Meta at 20x
- 41:35Ford with 33%
- 41:37revenue growth, 82% gross margin,
- 41:40Manhattan size data centers, 2Nm custom
- 41:44silicone,
- 41:46and a founder still in chairs. The most
- 41:48underpriced major AI exposure available.
- 41:52that they're not really an AI company.
- 41:54Market mispricing is the gift. Your bias
- 41:56is correct.
- 42:00Yeah, Meta is not an AI company. Wink
- 42:02wink.
- 42:04[ __ ] Meta is what it's literally
- 42:05named Meta because they're going to do
- 42:07whatever the [ __ ] is trending, dude. And
- 42:08they're going to cook everybody. Okay,
- 42:10they cook the [ __ ] metaverse and it's
- 42:12actually cooked. But
- 42:14that was the top. That was the top of
- 42:15the metaverse.
- 42:18I'm grateful for it though. Thank you.
- 42:20Thank you for changing your name
- 42:22cuz I was a big decentral land guy. Big
- 42:25big decentral guy. And I went to the
- 42:29[ __ ] moon when Zaki was like,
- 42:32"Dude, our name is Meta now."
- 42:36The OG metaverse,
- 42:40Decentraland,
- 42:46the thing to actually watch over the
- 42:48next four quarters.
- 42:50Rayban unit sales only proof of AI
- 42:53hardware blah blah. Okay.
- 42:57All right. So, that's interesting.
- 43:00Interesting. The Oculus buy really was a
- 43:03game changer. Absolutely. Absolutely.
- 43:06Dude, that was a great buy for a billion
- 43:10WhatsApp buy as well. It's like, okay,
- 43:13that's a pretty good buy. Instagram buy
- 43:15as well. Like, [ __ ] dude. He's not bad
- 43:17at buying companies. Not bad.
- 43:21And are there any other Fang?
- 43:27Are there any other Fang companies with
- 43:29the actual founder leading them still?
- 43:32Or is it just Mark?
- 43:37I'm curious about that.
- 43:40I'm very curious about that.
- 44:04Metaverse, Amazon,
- 44:08PayPal is in here. This is funny. Mostly
- 44:10buyback operation flat. PayPal is doing
- 44:13the most aggressive capital return story
- 44:15of the four, but the online business is
- 44:17not growing. I just threw it in there
- 44:19just for funsies.
- 44:28just Zuck.
- 44:34Oh, but you got Jensen and you got Musk.
- 44:37Okay. Okay.
- 44:44Damn. Paige and Bren still own 51% of
- 44:47Google shares.
- 44:50Bezos is selling though. That's the
- 44:52thing about Bezos.
- 44:55That's the thing about Amazon is they
- 44:57got sellers.
- 44:59But looking nice to me.
- 45:06Let's get Meta up here.
- 45:09Not even on my chart.
- 45:32All right. So,
- 45:41another 10%.
- 45:43We'll see what happens here.
- 45:45I don't know.
- 45:57No say amigo. No sir.
- 46:26They're going to have to split here at
- 46:27some point. Mhm.
- 46:48This was some sort of capitulation here.
- 46:50As you can see, this bar
- 47:10probably no rush.
- 47:20Is that the consensus now that
- 47:23Meta is not an AI company? That's why
- 47:26they're not getting the tailwind of, you
- 47:28know, the Amazons and the Googles,
- 47:30specifically recently in the last like
- 47:3230 days or so.
- 47:39And would you say that they are an AI
- 47:41company? I mean, you kind of I kind of
- 47:44pitched that to you and you kind of
- 47:45pitched it right back. But be
- 47:50explicit here. I mean, I don't know if
- 47:53they they would ever turn out their
- 47:57You're saying Manhattanized data
- 47:59centers. Are they going to use that all
- 48:01internal?
- 48:05Because that is a huge revenue driver
- 48:07for Amazon.
- 48:10And it seems like
- 48:12they're positioning themselves meta to
- 48:15be able to flip that switch if they want
- 48:16to have meta cloud or whatever. If
- 48:19they're really building something
- 48:22Manhattan size or is it that profitable
- 48:25for them in their ad business probably
- 48:28it as well. So, um, [snorts]
- 48:31yeah, I guess what I'm looking into here
- 48:33is
- 48:37do you think it's consensus right now
- 48:38that Meta is not an AI company?
- 48:47Because if it's not, I mean, we'll watch
- 48:49it. I'll watch it. I'll keep it here on
- 48:51my chart
- 48:54because let's see here.
- 49:01I've been at fan meta for a long time,
- 49:04but watching it do that, it's like,
- 49:06damn, it's tough.
- 50:21That's the consensus and I think it's
- 50:23mostly right for now with one important
- 50:26caveat.
- 50:28Is Meta Consider an AI company? The
- 50:30honest answer what the market is
- 50:32actually saying last 30 days. Meta is
- 50:34down 10% on April 29th.
- 50:37It's off 28% from highs.
- 50:40Google April 2026 was his best month
- 50:43since IPO. Wow. Amazon stable on AWS
- 50:46growth. Nvidia still the AI king.
- 50:51Patterns clear markets rewarding
- 50:54companies with external AI revenue and
- 50:56punishing the ones purely captive AI
- 50:58spend.
- 51:04Ben's like an AI company. Monetize like
- 51:06an ad company
- 51:16market has a simple test. Show me the AI
- 51:18revenue. AWS 364 billion of backlog.
- 51:24Google cloud 63% year-over-year.
- 51:28Microsoft uh zour here's the open AI
- 51:32workload
- 51:34meta our ad targeting is better counts
- 51:37as ads not AI
- 51:40that's the entire argument the 125 to
- 51:43145 capex in the meah and size data
- 51:46centers don't generate a single dollar
- 51:48of disclosed AI revenue
- 51:50every ROI claim flows through the ad
- 51:53business which the market already has a
- 51:56multiple for 15 to 20x for ad business
- 51:59verdict on consensus. Market currently
- 52:01treats Meta as a digital ad company
- 52:05that builds spend a lot on AI
- 52:07infrastructure,
- 52:09not as a AI company.
- 52:12That's why the multiple is 20x instead
- 52:14of 30 to 50x like Amazon.
- 52:17Am I saying Meta is an AI company? Be
- 52:20explicit. Yes, but with a qualification.
- 52:23I think Meta is generally both an
- 52:25application layer AI company. Real
- 52:28monetizing today via adlift glasses meta
- 52:31assistant one billion plus users
- 52:35an infrastructure builder real assets
- 52:37real silicone real power but for itself
- 52:42not for sale market is correct that
- 52:44number two doesn't deserve
- 52:45infrastructure company multiples because
- 52:47there's no external customer they're
- 52:49effectively running a private cloud on
- 52:51hers scale and asking the public market
- 52:53to value it like a public cloud that's a
- 52:55stretch but the market is underpricing
- 52:57Number one add AI lift is producing real
- 53:00measurable returns lattice plus 10%
- 53:03androme meta plus 8% ad quality
- 53:06advantage plus 22% RO rass the 33% Q1
- 53:10revenue growth is partially AIdriven not
- 53:12just cyclical recovery
- 53:16to my honest position Meta is an AI
- 53:19company on the application layer not on
- 53:21the infrastructure layer yet the market
- 53:24discount is partially deserved now A
- 53:27real question.
- 53:28Will they use all the capacity
- 53:30internally? This is the most important
- 53:31question. The bull case lives or dies
- 53:33here.
- 53:35Internal use case.
- 53:37What meta actually needs it for? They
- 53:39need it for llama. They need it for ad
- 53:41ranking. They need it for reals. They
- 53:43need it for meta AI. Need it for AR
- 53:45processing, VR processing. They need it
- 53:49for future agentic
- 53:51features.
- 53:53Real real real speculative speculative
- 53:55speculative two specul
- 53:58on this math current internal uses
- 54:01probably consumes 1.5 to 2 gaw
- 54:06the 5 gawatt plus 6.6 gawatt is built
- 54:09for 2028 2030 use cases that don't fully
- 54:12exist yet. Meta is betting that meta
- 54:14assistant becomes a primary interface
- 54:16for a billion users. Huge inference
- 54:19load.
- 54:20Smart glasses become the next computing
- 54:22platform. Continuous AI inference. Llama
- 54:26models continue to scale.
- 54:31If those three bets work, the five plus
- 54:33gawatt gets fully used.
- 54:36If they don't, Meta has stranded
- 54:39capacity by 2028.
- 54:42The could they become a meta cloud
- 54:44question.
- 54:46Probably not a public cloud, but they
- 54:48could absolutely flip a switch on
- 54:50something narrow narrower.
- 54:55The realistic scenarios llama as a
- 54:57service inference platform most likely
- 54:59open weight models need to run
- 55:01somewhere. Okay, that could be cool. AI
- 55:03studio for developers, they already have
- 55:04this in beta could scale into a real
- 55:07platform as a service. Agent compute
- 55:09marketplace. If AI agents become the
- 55:12primary interface, somebody has to host
- 55:15them. Sell specific partners to specific
- 55:18partners. Public cloud meta cloud. Okay.
- 55:22The reason this matters for the thesis
- 55:25if Meta only ever uses the
- 55:27infrastructure internally, the market is
- 55:29right to discount it. If Meta ever
- 55:31monetizes even 10% of the capacity
- 55:33externally, the rate the multiple
- 55:35rerates
- 55:37is the captive infrastructure profitable
- 55:38enough. This is the math that decides
- 55:40everything. Let me be specific. Copex
- 55:42commitment.
- 55:44I mean also also go into this just like
- 55:47is it
- 55:50as an ad company? Is it fairly price
- 55:55and are you getting the AI for free?
- 55:57Look into that angle because is it
- 56:00fairly priced as a social network ad
- 56:02company?
- 56:05Short and concise. Thank you.
- 56:09I mean it's just an idea. It's just a
- 56:11thought.
- 56:13Okay. So required ad revenue at 82%
- 56:16gross margin 30% incremental return on
- 56:19capital required.
- 56:21They could do that though.
- 56:24So AI Copex needs to drive an extra 7 to
- 56:279% of revenue per year for 10 years. Is
- 56:30that plausible? 22% revenue growth, 33%
- 56:34revenue growth. Bullcase AI keeps the
- 56:36growth rate at 18 to 20% for two to five
- 56:38years.
- 56:40The seven to nine.
- 56:43Honest verdict, it works only if AI ad
- 56:46targeting genuinely sustains a 6 to 8
- 56:50point growth premium for five plus
- 56:52years. Right now, it's working 33% Q1
- 56:55versus 12% odd industry baseline. If
- 56:58that compresses back to industry growth
- 57:01by 2027, the capex is value destructive.
- 57:06So what's the real answer? The consensus
- 57:08that meta is an AI company is partially
- 57:10correct and will likely persist until
- 57:13one or two things
- 57:40Meta starts disclosing AI specific
- 57:42revenue.
- 57:44Adlift becomes so obvious in the numbers
- 57:47that you can no longer argue it. It
- 57:49isn't in the AI story. If Meta sustains
- 57:5125% revenue growth for four quarters in
- 57:55a row while the ad industry grows 8 to
- 57:5710%, the market will be forced to admit
- 58:00it.
- 58:02My honest position update. I still think
- 58:04Meta is the best riskadjusted AI
- 58:06exposure of the four, but I want to be
- 58:09intellectually honest.
- 58:11You're right that the market doesn't see
- 58:13Meta as an AI company right now. The
- 58:1620XP versus Amazon Google at 30x is
- 58:19approved. You're right to be skeptical
- 58:21that they'll use all that Manhattan size
- 58:24data center capacity internally.
- 58:27They probably won't fully use the 5 plus
- 58:30gaw unless smart glasses or AI
- 58:33assistants scale dramatically.
- 58:35They could flip a switch on meta cloud.
- 58:38It's a real option, but it's not the
- 58:40base case.
- 58:43The bet you're making with Meta is
- 58:44essentially ad AI lift is real and
- 58:47durable. Smart glasses become a
- 58:49meaningful platform. They successfully
- 58:52monetize some of the infrastructure
- 58:54externally.
- 58:56The market eventually rerates them as an
- 58:58AI company. If you don't believe at
- 59:01least two of the four, you should not
- 59:03own Meta as AI trade.
- 59:08You should own Google or Amazon instead.
- 59:17That is the cheapest AI option because
- 59:19the market hasn't decided it's AI
- 59:21company yet. You're either getting an
- 59:23asymmetric rate trade if when the market
- 59:27changes its mind or you're catching a
- 59:29value trap where capex never produces
- 59:31the AI revenue [snorts] the bull case
- 59:35requires. The 20x PE reflects this
- 59:38uncertainty.
- 59:41Your skepticism is valid.
- 59:44That is secretly an AI company thesis is
- 59:46exactly that a thesis not a consensus.
- 59:50Quick answer. Yes. You're paying fair
- 59:52value for the ad business and getting
- 59:54the AI essentially for free. But Reality
- 59:56Labs is the asterisk the math clean 2026
- 1:00:00XE components. Okay. Total ad business
- 1:00:0330.
- 1:00:04Reality L $6 share ad business only $36
- 1:00:08per share.
- 1:00:11at business loan comps high quality

- 1:00:38than Reddit is double Meta. Damn. Fair
- 1:00:42value of Meta as just an ad company is
- 1:00:45720. Stock today is 610. What this
- 1:00:48means, you're paying 17x for an ad
- 1:00:50business that Compset says deserves 20X.
- 1:00:54The market is pricing Meta at a discount
- 1:00:56to pure ad comps.
- 1:00:59Even before crediting the 125 billion a
- 1:01:02year of AI infrastructure, llama for
- 1:01:04Meta AI assistance, Rayban, Meta
- 1:01:07Glasses, 6.6 six watts of nuclear power.
- 1:01:11Net net AI is being valued at roughly $0
- 1:01:14per share. Okay, so that's far. I mean,
- 1:01:20the real trade setup, you're essentially
- 1:01:21making three bets bundled into one
- 1:01:23stock. Long ad business, which is never
- 1:01:25going away. I'm sorry.
- 1:01:28Free call option on AI infrastructure.
- 1:01:30Llama and glasses. Everybody's using
- 1:01:33those [ __ ] glasses on the
- 1:01:34[ __ ] the reels and [ __ ] You
- 1:01:37see it? Tik Toks.
- 1:01:39Okay. Not everybody.
- 1:01:41Not everybody,
- 1:01:44but people are using them more than
- 1:01:46Google Glass. I had Google Glass back in
- 1:01:49the day. [laughter]
- 1:01:52You know, I had the Google Glass, bro.
- 1:01:54You know, I did,
- 1:01:59mama. I mean, I've used it a couple
- 1:02:01times. I'm not gonna say it's fire.
- 1:02:05Reality Labs. Mark's
- 1:02:08project. See if he can cook. If not, he
- 1:02:10might just burn 40 billion like he did
- 1:02:12with the metaverse. That's all right.
- 1:02:21If you believe Reality Labs is worth
- 1:02:23more than zero,
- 1:02:26the math improves further. If you think
- 1:02:28Reality Labs is going to keep bleeding
- 1:02:3020 billion a year forever with nothing
- 1:02:32to show for it, the discount is
- 1:02:33partially deserved. Honest verdict, yes,
- 1:02:36Meta is fairly too cheaply priced as a
- 1:02:39social network ad company. The 20x
- 1:02:41forward PE on consolidated business
- 1:02:44equates to 17x on the ad business alone.
- 1:02:48Fair to chief ad business, AI
- 1:02:50infrastructure for free. Reality Labs as
- 1:02:53a known negative.
- 1:02:55That's why the bull case keeps coming
- 1:02:56back to meta even though I acknowledge
- 1:02:58the market doesn't credit as an AI
- 1:03:00company yet. The setup is you're not
- 1:03:03paying for AI optionality. You're pay
- 1:03:06you're being slightly compensated to
- 1:03:08take it.
- 1:03:10The risk is that reality labs continues
- 1:03:12to bleed and the market decides the ad
- 1:03:15company at fair value plus AI for free
- 1:03:18framing is wrong because AI
- 1:03:20infrastructure is also destroying value.
- 1:03:23That's the bare case. If you can stomach
- 1:03:2518 months of Reality Labs losses and
- 1:03:28capex digestion, you're getting a high
- 1:03:30quality ad business at fair value with
- 1:03:33AI as the kicker. That's the trade.
- 1:03:35Interesting, dude. That's an interesting
- 1:03:37one.
- 1:03:39That's fun.
- 1:03:42That's fun. That's fun.
- 1:04:15Are people actually using their new um
- 1:04:19meta AI uh glasses, the Ray-B [snorts]
- 1:04:22bands? Like what are the numbers on
- 1:04:24that? Compare them to this the Snapchat
- 1:04:27Spectacles and then also Google Glass
- 1:04:29back in the day the launch and like are
- 1:04:32people actually using them? Okay, thank
- 1:04:34you.
- 1:07:17Just curious if anybody's actually using
- 1:07:18these [ __ ]
- 1:08:12What month is it? May

- 1:09:40million in 2025 on loan. Scaling to 20
- 1:09:44million capacity by end of 2026. Best
- 1:09:46smelling uh smelling smelling and
- 1:09:49selling smart glasses by a wide margin.
- 1:09:52That's 70x more units in one year than
- 1:09:54Google Glass ever sold. And 40x more
- 1:09:57than Snap's reticles total. Even if you
- 1:10:00compare Meta's 2024 volume alone, are
- 1:10:04people actually using them? The honest
- 1:10:06caveat, sales does not mean engagement.
- 1:10:10Sales data was solid. Million, then 2
- 1:10:12million, then 7 million. Now they can
- 1:10:15sell up to 20 million.
- 1:10:18Tripled revenue from this these in 2025.
- 1:10:21Rayban's parent company. Damn, tripled
- 1:10:24revenue. What?
- 1:10:27Production is supply constrained.
- 1:10:29They're sitting at Raybound stores at
- 1:10:31$299.
- 1:10:34Meta does not publicly break out daily
- 1:10:36active users for glasses. No churn rate,
- 1:10:39no retention curves.
- 1:10:42A sign. Meta wants to control narrative.
- 1:10:45Compare Snap's internal data shows under
- 1:10:4750% of spectacle buyers still using them
- 1:10:49after a month. Okay, interesting. Soft
- 1:10:51signals that suggest real engagement.
- 1:10:53Repeat purchase rate.
- 1:10:56People buying multiple frame styles.
- 1:10:59Meta AI assistant queries.
- 1:11:04Active development. Display version.
- 1:11:06Launch late 2025.
- 1:11:10Soft signals that suggest hyperrisk. No
- 1:11:13DAU disclosure. Battery life is only 4
- 1:11:16hours.
- 1:11:18Damn, that's weak.
- 1:11:21Photos, music, calls. It's pretty basic.
- 1:11:23I got to try them myself. Why Ray-B band
- 1:11:25meta worked where glass and spectacles
- 1:11:28failed
- 1:11:30a static
- 1:11:32look like normal Ray-B bands.
- 1:11:36Entry price as well.
- 1:11:39Damn, I spent 1,500 on Google Glass back
- 1:11:42in the day. What a [ __ ] mega nerd,
- 1:11:43huh?
- 1:11:52Mega nerd.
- 1:11:55The thing that broke previous smart
- 1:11:56glasses was looking weird in public.
- 1:11:58Rayban Meta solved that problem by
- 1:12:01hiding the tech inside actual Ray-B
- 1:12:02bands.
- 1:12:06What this means for the meta thesis
- 1:12:09bull case is partially validated. Smart
- 1:12:11glasses are the reality labs initiative
- 1:12:14with actual product market fit.
- 1:12:20But the bear case still has its teeth.
- 1:12:23Two billion in revenue. So they lost 19
- 1:12:26billion. Nice. Without DAU disclosures,
- 1:12:29we can't prove people are actually using
- 1:12:31them. The display version at 799 is the
- 1:12:34real test. Apple was rumored to enter
- 1:12:37vision based glasses in 2728.
- 1:12:41Yes, people actually use them.
- 1:12:44If they made two billion off sales, like
- 1:12:47where where else are they making money
- 1:12:49on the Ray-B bands? Are they like the
- 1:12:51software on the inside? Like ads, I
- 1:12:53guess. I don't know.
- 1:12:58Ads up in your eyes, bro. [laughter]
- 1:13:02Oh, we're going to have ads in our eyes.
- 1:13:09We don't know if people use them.
- 1:13:12Realistic five-year framing. Rayban Meta
- 1:13:14is the proof point with Reality Labs.
- 1:13:21Also look into the um how many employees
- 1:13:25they have and their Yeah, I know their
- 1:13:28revenue per employee is pretty high, but
- 1:13:31I also think their leader is um if they
- 1:13:34Mark a little ruthless, let's be honest,
- 1:13:38and he would fire half the company if
- 1:13:41needed.
- 1:13:43So how does that affect their current
- 1:13:46business
- 1:13:47and um yeah future
- 1:13:52valuation etc.
- 1:13:57Okay, let's go ahead and see.
- 1:14:17And this could be a HIP3 here. Let's
- 1:14:19see. Oh, it's on there. That's why
- 1:14:21that's how I found it. Duh. This is how
- 1:14:23it all started. That's how it all
- 1:14:25started a few hours ago at this point. I
- 1:14:27don't know.
- 1:14:30Okay, so HIP3 here. 10x leverage
- 1:14:36liquidated.
- 1:14:42Set orders. 10x leverage. Nah, that's
- 1:14:45just too much leverage. You need that.
- 1:14:47You got to use a I don't I can't give
- 1:14:49you financial advice, but
- 1:14:53it's a lot of volume here.
- 1:14:57Is that the case in the real market or
- 1:14:59just hyperlquid?
- 1:15:02May 5th.
- 1:15:19It's April.
- 1:15:26You give me meta at 520, I'll take it.
- 1:15:28If you throw me meta at 520, I'll take
- 1:15:30it. But
- 1:15:41not saying I'll hold it forever. Not
- 1:15:42saying I'll hold it. No way.
- 1:15:47Not saying anything, bro. Not saying
- 1:15:48[ __ ]
- 1:15:51Okay, let's go ahead and just see what's
- 1:15:52Gucci today. Hardware is essentially the
- 1:15:55only direct revenue.
- 1:15:58So, they're betting 21 billion a year on
- 1:16:01this.
- 1:16:03Wonder what they're seeing.
- 1:16:10Meta is following the same playbook as
- 1:16:12Facebook and threads. build engagement
- 1:16:14first, monetize with ads second. The
- 1:16:16smart glasses are positioned as creating
- 1:16:19optional pathways for AI distribution
- 1:16:22that will eventually serve ads.
- 1:16:26The actual monetization stack is meta
- 1:16:28sees it. Phase one,
- 1:16:31two billion hardware revenue. Okay.
- 1:16:32Glasses feed meta AI assistant queries.
- 1:16:35Okay. Photos uploaded to IGFB.
- 1:16:39voice patterns, location data, visual
- 1:16:42context, all of which improves the core
- 1:16:45ad business.
- 1:16:47Phase two, engagement loops, Instagram
- 1:16:50reels, viewing inside glasses is crazy.
- 1:16:53WhatsApp video calls, Spotify,
- 1:16:57we'll see
- 1:16:59native ads and glasses in 2027.
- 1:17:07The data flywheel is the underrated
- 1:17:08piece. Every Ray-B band meta user is
- 1:17:11generating voice data, visual data,
- 1:17:13behavioral data, engagement data.
- 1:17:17The honest math of glasses
- 1:17:19profitability, 2 billion in hardware
- 1:17:21revenue times probability, 20 to 30%
- 1:17:25gross margin.
- 1:17:28They're probably making like 400
- 1:17:30million, so it's way less. It's 3% of
- 1:17:32Reality Labs losses.
- 1:17:43I kind of like how they do that over
- 1:17:44there to be honest though.
- 1:17:47They'll have something cooking hella
- 1:17:48hard and they'll be betting on the other
- 1:17:50side hella hard and they'll take the L
- 1:17:53because like Mark is so young and he's
- 1:17:56going to be around for the next 30 40
- 1:17:57years I feel like. So he's like, "Yeah,
- 1:18:00why not? I'm going to take the biggest
- 1:18:01shots while printing so hard and that's
- 1:18:04going to keep growing over there. I'll
- 1:18:06let Wall Street go ahead and uh,
- 1:18:09you know, talk [ __ ] whatever. I took a
- 1:18:12big L. I took a big L. I changed my
- 1:18:14[ __ ] name to Meta, bro.
- 1:18:17[laughter]
- 1:18:18I changed our name from Facebook to
- 1:18:20Meta, dude. Come on. I took a big L. It
- 1:18:23is what it is. I'mma keep cooking. I'mma
- 1:18:26keep taking shots. Okay. I launched
- 1:18:28these [ __ ] glasses a couple
- 1:18:30year back. They kind of hitting. Yeah,
- 1:18:31I'm spending 21 billion a year on
- 1:18:33Reality Labs. We making 500 back. 500
- 1:18:37million. Yeah, it's a little bit, but
- 1:18:39it's okay.
- 1:18:43Maybe it won't hit. Maybe it won't hit.
- 1:18:45That's all right. We're cooking on the
- 1:18:46ad business and it's still growing. [ __ ]
- 1:18:48you guys. I don't care if you call us a
- 1:18:50AI company or not. It doesn't matter to
- 1:18:52me.
- 1:18:54I'mma keep cooking. I'mma keep testing
- 1:18:55things. I'mma keep testing. I'm going to
- 1:18:57keep testing. Oh, guess what? WhatsApp
- 1:19:00for sale. Let's get it. Oh, Instagram
- 1:19:01for sale. Let's get it. Oculus for sale.
- 1:19:04Let's get it. Who are they going to
- 1:19:06acquire next? Can they even acquire
- 1:19:08anymore? Also, what's going on with the
- 1:19:11um you know, the size of their company?
- 1:19:12Are they able to keep acquiring
- 1:19:14companies? Because at the end of the
- 1:19:15day, you know, WhatsApp was a major
- 1:19:17acquisition.
- 1:19:19Instagram was a major acquisition.
- 1:19:22Oculus was a major acquisition. Mark
- 1:19:24Mark will pay up and everybody's always
- 1:19:26in awe when he buys like, "Oh, he paid
- 1:19:29too much." But
- 1:19:31so far so good.
- 1:19:34So far so good.
- 1:19:39At some point, don't they start blocking
- 1:19:42acquisitions? This is my question. Okay,
- 1:19:43thanks.
- 1:19:47Okay, thank you. Bye.
- 1:20:27good thread of questions. Let me hit
- 1:20:28them each employees. Uh Meta has 78,000
- 1:20:32employees. Wow.
- 1:20:36Apple has 164,000. Amazon has 1.5
- 1:20:39million.
- 1:20:44200 billion 78,000 revenue per employee
- 1:20:48the highest
- 1:21:16Meta is 5.6x 6x more revenue per
- 1:21:19employee than Amazon and Microsoft. Only
- 1:21:22Nvidia beats them on this metric.
- 1:21:29They're not the highest. Okay, they're
- 1:21:30second highest.
- 1:21:32The same workforce drives more revenue
- 1:21:34every year because the ad targeting
- 1:21:35models do more of the work.
- 1:21:38Zuck's relentless
- 1:21:40or ruthlessness as a compounder. You're
- 1:21:43right. And this is underrated as a
- 1:21:46long-term value driver. The pattern 2025
- 1:21:492022 with the year of efficiency cut
- 1:21:5121,000 employees. Stock had been beaten
- 1:21:54down to the 90s. This was a catalyst to
- 1:21:57start the run to 700 plus. Wow.
- 1:22:01January 2026, Reality Labs cuts 1,000
- 1:22:04people, 30% RL budget reduction, smart
- 1:22:08glasses kept. Metaverse deemphasized
- 1:22:14April 2026. Another 8,000 cuts. Total
- 1:22:182026 is down 30,000 from peak. Z has
- 1:22:21demonstrated willingness to fire half
- 1:22:23the company. He literally did.
- 1:22:27Bezos never had a single mass layoff
- 1:22:29while CEO
- 1:22:33Pai has layoffs are slow. Telegraphed
- 1:22:36executives speak.
- 1:22:38Cook famously won't lay off. Apples
- 1:22:40never had a mass layoff in modern era.
- 1:22:43What the hell? For real?
- 1:23:25This matters matters enormously. If the
- 1:23:29125 to 145 billion AI spend doesn't
- 1:23:32produce returns in 2728, Zuck will cut
- 1:23:3530,000 more employees and reset the
- 1:23:37stock base before the market forces them
- 1:23:39to. That's a structural floor under a
- 1:23:41stock that Amazon and Google don't have.
- 1:23:46It's also why the founder le premium is
- 1:23:48real. Cook would protect Apple's culture
- 1:23:51before cutting. Zuck will cut to protect
- 1:23:53the stock.
- 1:23:59Major M&A is essentially blocked. Beta
- 1:24:01knows this and has adapted the track
- 1:24:04record for context. Instagram
- 1:24:06to buy down for a billion. Best Eminem a
- 1:24:10deal of 2010s. Now generates 50 billion
- 1:24:13in ad revenue. They bought it for a
- 1:24:15billion. Now it generates 50 billion a
- 1:24:16year. Oh my god.
- 1:24:19WhatsApp, they bought it for 19 billion.
- 1:24:21That looked insane. Now it's got three
- 1:24:23billion of users.
- 1:24:25Oculus, they bought that for two
- 1:24:26billion. Reality Labs base has lost 83
- 1:24:29billion since. God,
- 1:24:32still betted on that 2014.
- 1:24:36See if it comes to fruition or not.
- 1:24:38within VR fitness. Okay. FTC tried to
- 1:24:41block it.
- 1:24:44Scale AI 14 billion structured as a
- 1:24:46talent license deal to avoid antirust
- 1:24:49review.
- 1:24:50What changed? 2020 Lena FTC declared war

- 1:25:57ventures and sta structure deal real
- 1:26:00estate infrastruure
- 1:26:02Future acquisition capacity. Meta has
- 1:26:04the cash to keep doing structured deals.
- 1:26:06Any size 36 billion cash on hand. 43
- 1:26:10billion free cash flow in 2025. They can
- 1:26:12do a 14 billion scale style deal every 6
- 1:26:15to9 months without blinking.
- 1:26:18The constraint is incapable is targets.
- 1:26:22The structure acquisition model only
- 1:26:23works when the target has clear key
- 1:26:26talent that can be relocated. The
- 1:26:28target's IP can be licensed. The
- 1:26:30target's existing customers don't
- 1:26:32object. The target is small enough that
- 1:26:35will still exist as possible.
- 1:26:39Most likely 26 to 28. Okay.
- 1:26:50I mean, it's something to look at. I'm
- 1:26:52going keep looking at it, but not going
- 1:26:53to do anything.
- 1:26:55Keep cooking.
- 1:26:58Hey, thank you, Scanner. You gave us
- 1:26:59this whole rabbit hole to go down today.
- 1:27:05SanDisk.
- 1:27:08Mu mu
- 1:27:10skhx. What the hell is that?
- 1:27:21SK.
- 1:27:30What is this?
- 1:27:56It's a symbol. I don't know what it is,
- 1:27:58though.
- 1:28:13I don't know what it is, though.
- 1:28:15Looks like it's going up. 80% change in
- 1:28:1924 hours. Now $80. I keep seeing that
- 1:28:21and scares me, bro. That scares me.
- 1:29:27Korean memory semiconductor giant
- 1:29:31damn
- 1:29:3883% in one
- 1:29:48Ba.
- 1:31:43Damn TSC. What the hell is that? This is
- 1:31:46dope, dude. I like it. I like it being
- 1:31:49right there, too.
- 1:32:00I'm out of it.
- 1:33:02S khx
- 1:33:10k
- 1:33:12hx Thanks.
- 1:36:05INTC.
- 1:36:19Look at the 4 hour.
- 1:37:29Let's see what the draw downs have been.
- 1:37:32Peak
- 1:37:344%. You're licked at 10%. 10x leverage,
- 1:37:38but that's it. Assuming you buy the top
- 1:37:414%.
- 1:37:446%.
- 1:37:48I want you to go ahead and build a build
- 1:37:50a new version of this, okay? Second
- 1:37:53version. Um, and essentially what I want
- 1:37:55you to do is uh
- 1:37:57this is of the scanner that you built
- 1:38:00earlier.
- 1:38:03The trending cash
- 1:38:18essentially I want I want you to remove
- 1:38:19the um
- 1:38:22the RSI
- 1:38:25and instead I want the percentage draw
- 1:38:28down from the last 24 hours. Okay. So
- 1:38:32like possible from the high to the low
- 1:38:35the high to the low what I'm trying to
- 1:38:36get a compass on is okay yeah these are
- 1:38:39trending but
- 1:38:41how what's their draw down on the trend
- 1:38:44you know
- 1:38:47so you have all that data you're looking
- 1:38:48at and then you'll be able to see like
- 1:38:50okay what is the high of the low
- 1:38:52percentage okay thank you
- 1:38:57so actually just keep it the same keep
- 1:38:59it the same uh file
- 1:39:01But you know instead of the RSI you'll
- 1:39:03have this instead and it'll be the last
- 1:39:06column. Thank you.
- 1:39:13All right. So
- 1:39:15it's interesting though cuz this is just
- 1:39:17trending trending trending.
- 1:39:20Awesome. Just like how high does it go?
- 1:39:24Stops trending stop.
- 1:39:29How high does it go or is it done right
- 1:39:31now? Because I'm looking at it. That's
- 1:39:32the thing. You don't know. I don't know
- 1:39:35those things.
- 1:39:39This could be the exact pico top right
- 1:39:41here.
- 1:39:48Pico top.
- 1:39:54Maybe that's a trade within itself.
- 1:39:58It's the
- 1:40:00Oh,
- 1:40:02not here to say all that. I'm just
- 1:40:04investigating, dude. I'm a data dog just
- 1:40:05like you. You're the data dog that found
- 1:40:07me. You're the data dog. You researched
- 1:40:08somehow and you clicked on this video
- 1:40:10and you saying, "Hi, Mundo." And then
- 1:40:12you're like, "Let me get into the Zoom,
- 1:40:13too." Okay, let's get it, dude. But
- 1:40:16you're the data dog. Thank you for your
- 1:40:17presence.
- 1:42:00uh knowing meta story and everything
- 1:42:01everyone does.
- 1:42:04Oh goodness.
- 1:42:06Meta is the Cardono of AI. Holy hell.
- 1:42:12[laughter]
- 1:42:14The Cardono of AI.
- 1:42:16Holy hell, dude.
- 1:42:20Guys are meta haters, huh? Zucky Zuck
- 1:42:22haters.
- 1:42:24[ __ ] That's crazy. That makes sense
- 1:42:26though. Makes sense.
- 1:42:36They be looking at all our data. For
- 1:42:37sure. For sure.
- 1:42:42But Google is too.
- 1:42:47Google is too. So, they're listening to
- 1:42:49this right now. Hey googly googly,
- 1:42:52please don't give me that strike,
- 1:42:54please. Thank you. Nice job to you. 777
- 1:43:14there. She's still cooking.
- 1:43:17She's smoke testing.
- 1:46:15Let's go ahead and see what it looks
- 1:46:16like now.
- 1:46:18It's a little more analysis. It might
- 1:46:20take a little bit longer, but that's
- 1:46:22okay. We got time. Patience require
- 1:46:27ATX.
- 1:46:30Okay. Um,
- 1:46:33so I I ran it again. Oh, snap.
- 1:46:39It's V2.
- 1:46:51Nice.
- 1:47:11Bye. Uh,
- 1:47:18bang bang. Hey,
