Lol this is a rhetorical trick. A joke is expected in the middle of a speech. Audience responses to a question generally aren't. If you were speaking to all the mathematicians in the world and decided halfway through to say "What's the integral of e^x dx?" you'd likely get silence in response. "OMG most mathematicians don't know how to integrate e^x holy shit humanity is doomed".


He asked "what is this?" at some point, referring to a diagram, and someone immediately answers "a PID controller".

My claim remains that there are many who are working on Artemis that quietly believe it will not succeed. History will eventually reveal the truth about this; and yeah, I might be wrong, we will see.


I searched the transcript for "we're going, right?" and stopped it at the first section (here I rewound a little for you) https://youtu.be/OoJsPvmFixU?t=1270

I'll address this to the third parties in the room who are not me or you: Click through and listen and if you are convinced it's a question you can go with Buttons840. If you're not convinced it's a question you can go with me. But it'll take you 10 seconds max. Worth it for you to see it yourself. No need to let anyone convince you.

There may be. But Destin’s video doesn’t demonstrate that.
