[7:51 – 9:13 · Clip 1] Lex: Walk me through the night you found out you were fired. Sam: It was a Google Meet. No heads-up. Ilya sent the message. I remember sitting there thinking — is this real? And then I had to tell my family. [1:39:10 – 1:40:32 · Clip 2] AGI to me means a system that can do almost anything a human can do at a human level — and then we just keep going from there. The moment we cross that line, everything else accelerates. [1:16:13 – 1:17:35 · Clip 3] We need a lot more compute than anyone has built so far — by a lot. The question isn't whether the world needs this infrastructure. The question is who builds it first, and whether it's built safely. [25:17 – 26:37 · Clip 4] Ilya is one of the greatest minds of our generation. I don't know what he's thinking. The goodbye was painful for me in a way I didn't expect. We built something together that will matter for a very long time.
