Why Lex is single. 1st few seconds: "when you think about role playing games" fine

In a Bond movie, Lex is the perfect Spy. Single, full of connections, well spoken, and can control robots with his mind. 10/10

If he did have a girlfriend, would this podcast exist? 🤔

7:27 the answer you're all looking for, you're welcome.

Lex is one of the few people who says "I don't have time for a girlfriend" that I would actually beleive.

Girlfriend: "You never give me anytime, you're like a ROBOT on this podcast" Lex: 🤖

"Charisma is the enemy of privacy" is every introvert's mantra

There's something uniquely enabling about being single and 100% focused on business. I was single for years and it enabled me to establish a business and own a house. Being in a relationship now is great and my girlfriend encourages me in my endeavors, but I probably wouldn't have had the energy to do those things simultaneously.

he's not single he's the singularity

Lex needs to have kids we need more Lexs running around.

Chasing excellence, not problems

That hedgehog on the right side of the screen has seen some stuff in it’s life.

Because he loves Rogan but Joe's married. ;)

Got a fleshlight

I had a dream last night where someone tried to kill me and Lex Fridman saved me. I forgot all the details, i just remember Lex saving me from a killer. Weird dream

"In the future will we have a friend?" this question hit me way deeper than it should've

Cuz hes a sigma male on his grind 💪👑🙌

Drive on Lex, let the dim, the shallow, and the uninspired say what they will. You are what is good in the younger generation.

He’s building a parter

Lex is always talking about love. Seems like he'd be a great bf romantic, kind, understanding and supportive.

Cuz hes extremely bright and wise beyond his young years

"It requires general intelligence to be a successful participant in a relationship". I felt that

He won't be single for long. I would hope he is smart enough to wait for someone who is kind, patient, intellectually stimulating, open minded, humble, curious, funny, caring, compassionate, driven, magnanimous, inspiring, empathetic, sympathetic, down to earth, wise, profound and maintains the virtues to appreciate someone like him. I've always thought those things of Lex.

Plot twist: Lex is actually an android escaped Ex Machina-style from a Soviet lab in the eighties, and through this podcast he is trying to acquire the knowledge to reverse-engineer his own source code.

Dude looks like a hit man, that's why.

The very fact that a guy like Lex is single is motivation in life! Maybe not everyone needs to fill the void with a relationship! amazing people just are self sufficient! :D like Lex and I lol

Sooner or later she'd wanna be a part of it, and that's when we switch to Bobby Lee 😂

You ain't missing a thing with this dating scene these days Lex, except the usual same ol' same ol'.

Bro is not a simp

This man will marry Ex Machina in future

As soon as Lex finds the right robot, he won't be single anymore.

Don't settle for second best Lex, wait for the robo-catgirls!

The fact they used a screenshot from Westworld of a female robot makes this ten times better

If its with the wrong person, its a huge waste of time.

This is not click bait : 7:32

So should I shoot my shot or nah?

There are a lot of good people out there who would make great life partners for us, and us for them. The problem is that you have to sort through a mountain of shit to find them.

e e cummings summed it up so much more succinctly a long time ago (as poets do) "Since feeling is first, whoever pays any attention to the syntax of things will never wholly kiss you"

Truly gifted and exceptionally intelligent men have been single or struggled with relationships. The world is running short on intelligent people of both genders.

It’s kind of funny to hear this when I can’t even get Siri to set a timer correctly half the time.

I don't have a girlfriend after 40 years of marriage either....

He’s a martial artist with a PhD. He doesn’t need to seek out a romantic partner, they’ll come to him.

Andrew Huberman, Kevin Peterson both gave Lex relationship advice and both videos have Natalie Portman on the thumbnail, he's not single guys, he's waiting for Natalie to be available.😂

I can't stop wanting Michael Malice to come in mid conversation and ask what they're talking about.

I actually have the biggest crush on lex 🥰

The whole podcast Thing has been his journey towards the answer to this question. Which in itself is the answer to this question.

Lex would be a great father

I just think it's because he hasn't formally asked yet. I'm sure Whitney would say yes.

Didn’t watch the entire video because he’s ranting too much.. But it’s just that he’s a busy person and relationships take time to build themselves.

He is too intellectual for waman

I have a total crush on Lex💔

I disagree, friendships are based on the idea that you feel understood by your friend. To reach that level would require AGI.

Love it Lex, personally I'm single because I'm an absolute mess with no hope whatsoever. We are like the dichotomy of singleness.

Don't listen to them Lex You'll find the right one , there are girls out here that like handsome brilliant nerds. Keep smiling 😉

Of course his podcast would exist! This is a high-demand, very exclusive (in terms of the guests Lex can get that others cant) , and unlike most businesses, Lex can do his podcast from most major cities. He’s doing from Texas now, has done from Boston area, others do from NY, LA, Nashville, Miami, and other places that are escaping my memory. I can’t imagine ones personal life affecting their podcast career. Is a ridiculous question. There are so many other careers that may limit ones ‘location’, but in this day and age, I can’t think of too many that will control where Lex decides to live. Is this question a joke?? It sounds like a joke!

Having never wanted kids, I didn't feel compelled to marry. I'm now in my mid-50s and looking back, my relationships were good and being in love was wonderful... but I love ❤️ being single. You do get a lot more done, and maybe it's selfish, but I love doing whatever I want whenever I want without having to feel guilty about it.

Damn, had no idea Dax Shepherd was that smart ;)

Lex "IUD? What is that, some kind of weapon?" Fridman

I find this guy incredibly attractive. I think he is single because he wouldn't have the time to get to find/know that 1% of the female demography that is actually beautiful, intelligent, kind and capable of being with a man like this. 🤷🏾‍♀️

Hopefully he does have kids one day. They would be exactly what this world needs.

Having a girlfriend/wife is not good for your career nowadays

No matter how advanced AI characters get it will never be able to replace real life human connection

Chase a cheque never a bitch.

I can totally see Lex take on the mantle of another Lex, a villan, Lex Luthor.

Lexs Gf will be level 7 fully autonomous in 7-15 months 💪🏾💪🏾😂😂😂

He should show his Instagram DMs. He has a blue checkmark, all you need.

The educational curve is the reason for the ebb and flow post implementation. The curve is relative.

Options! 1. Be single, date no one. 2. Be single, date around. 3. Be monogamous coupled, get cheated on. 4. Be open-relationship coupled, cheating doesn’t exist. 5. Design a companion(s) with AI.

Lex got 99 problems....

His voice is intoxicating literally❤ I love to hear Lex talk.

Replika has already answered this question.

Is that Dax shepard?

I’m sure he could easily find some chick, but I’d be worried that they’d end up finding out his code and hacking him. Once he’s under someone else’s control we could loose this pod, and we all need a bit of Lex in our lives. If he can have a really secure system and sufficient software defences, and we can know 100% that this random chick isn’t guna turn out to be our YOKO, then I reckon that Lex could find someone he could sync himself to easily. I often sync my different devices using MIDI cables, I’m not sure if that would work in Lex’s case, but maybe something to compute?

What if we build a great AI with its own conscious and it doesn't want to do math and read books? What if it decided to watch KZfaq cat videos all day, do we force it to do what we want? If we do it's not really concious like us. Not even close. Can you build a friend, what if it hates us?

Is it cos Lex watches Westworld? There are only 3 seasons and it jumped the shark during season 2

I dunno about other people, but I'm letting you know, I watched the video, you get a view, but I purposefully will not click the like button on this video, because of the clickbait title. Clickbait makes KZfaq a worse place. The more it becomes acceptable, the less people need to actually work on the video. The less quality on KZfaq. The more clickbait is the only thing that works.

Why is Lex single? Because he's torn between what he thinks he knows and what he knows that he doesn't know. As a Scientist, he's trained to look for absolutes. True Luv don't work that way, it can be inexplicable and there's no one universal practical definition. It's not a constant state of being, existing, it ebb's and flows, waxes and wanes, it can be blind or all encompassing. I'd venture to say he's had his heart broken at least once, and he's afraid of failure. He possesses a level of naivete that some find charming from the standpoint that it implies some innocence that is associated with genuineness, not saying that it doesn't exist... Needs vs. Want's and Desire's has many gray areas.

If I was a woman lex would be my ideal partner. I'm looking for a female version, I just love talking about physics, philosophy the big questions in the universe. It's literally all I do. I wish to find a female lex, if you're out there let me know! The rest of your life starts with a reply 😊🤗🤗

3:52 is the same explanation I gave the cops when my "fussy neighbors" found me lurking outside their bedroom window.

Having passions in life are fulfilling and when someone wants to be your friend they will be there no matter what you do. Because they care and love you. He could have a girl friend right now and not even realize it because it hasn’t been labeled as that. Having passions in life can be more full filling than having a friend.

10:16 Clippy reference

An android girlfriend could be fun if it was realistic enough but lets not pretend that marrying an android or robot would be fulfilling.

Lex is too Smart and Nice where I think his bar for a woman might be a little high (Title) but the Video comes off as Ai Bot and character... The Movie (Her)

We have a vector. How did you not get complaints? You cant keep it in a kids bedroom. It wakes up and drives around randomly making noise. It falls off the table, because its edge sensors arent calibrated correctly. It used to talk and give you the weather at least. Anki went bankrupt and shut down the servers. The company that bought them out wants a few hundred dollars upfront and $12/month to regain its previous functionality. You cant connect to it and train it new things or really interact with it. Its too bad, because it seems like a well designed package with a lot of potential. I would only want one of these if its open source and you can download or write new files for it. This guy founded a company that ended up screwing its customers. Hopefully he feels at least a little bad for that.

Imagine Chelsea Handler on this podcast. Would be the best interview of lex ever done by a guest

Because his future girlfriend is still in r&d stage.

Its a right decision to be single in this day and age thats full of uncertainties like covid.

From touch screen to feeling screen

I look around me and see nothing but arguments and betrayal honestly love my own inner peace I don’t envy it atall

He is gathering additional intellect to build his arsenal of love for his mate. Hunter, gatherer with immense patience. He is still making smart sexy to me

For a stress free life stay single but have friends with benefits. That’s my advice.

We have been married over 40 years, now we have grandkids. I have no regrets. I support equality in relationships. It’s your life.

My husband and I live in different states. I own a business in FL and he has a great job CA, we live our lives but chose to share it with each other. We are exceptionally compatible emotionally, physically and intellectually. We don’t require each other to be around physically all the time but we do push each other towards our goals.

Lex should find a fembot with automatic jumblies

Lex is the kinda guy would get a hot robot girlfriend. Lex is a pioneer.

This title would be apt for any of his videos

Maybe Lex doesn't feel the need for a companion maybe he likes being to himself doing as he likes..I do😂

This guest seems fascinating- I so want to watch the whole podcast! I love that Lex mentioned 'Clippy' again. ;D

Lex is a scientist, he knows it is better to rent than to own.

Lex the planet actually has your companion. Compatible companion. TRUE COMPANION. it's all good
