Thanks
Thank you.
Thank you
Ansar M. Smith thank you, I hope you have a wonderful day!!
Woz is a rare genius, who's not corrupted by the power and money.
Jobs was the exact opposite
Black Axe
I’m assuming you’re under the age of 20... lol
@@KC-bg1th On the contrary, majority of his consumers are below 20
@@blackaxe2428 Jobs was a business-teamleader type, he wasn't a technical person at all. They cannot be compared on that level. Many good products have failed in the industry because a non competent company leading management, and many because a bad product. So the skills of both of them are complementary.Woz was a HW SW guy first the first Mac's. I've personally liked the Motorola later PowerPc based Mac's, they were the perfect tools for DTP. But nowadays Apple computers are just expensive garbage.
@@ferencszabo3504 exactly, he's all about the money
What a wonderful guy Wozniak is. So polite, patient, considers the questions well and gives deep answers. And so down to earth.
@Lata Lal For many, glory and attention is overrated and even undesired; particularly for those of us who enjoy design and development more than promotion. I'd say Wozniak has done well regardless, but for all like-minded innovators, I encourage the confidence and assertiveness to ensure we are not talked over, walked over, ignored or forgotten. Many a quiet man or woman provides great value which remains insufficiently acknowledged.
@Lata Lal na you fool,this guy helped in the startup of apple by building the interface.then he left and Steve Jobs made apple from the ground up.
Where as Jobs was probably a borderline psychopath and an unfeeling shmuck.
watch the movie "jobs" the actor does a great job playing him
May Allah (S.W.T.) guide him.
I'm impressed by how fast he is able to answer to all this questions. He seems like such a passionate and intelligent guy.
He is the Engeneering of the first Apple computer. Steve jobs just manage the company
lol
He is a very intelligent teddybear :3
He's been overclocked to 4.7Ghz 😄
That's how he "seems" but what he really is, is worthless.
Such a decent, humble guy.
He doesn't get the credit he deserves for the founding of a great company.
He does get a lot of credit. If he didn’t leave Apple he would have gotten half the credit.
@@aryanbaviskar4127
Hardly anyone, outside of hardcore Apple fan circles, even knows his name much less, gives him credit for his role in creating Apple.
@@IamDoogy I think most Microsoft, Google, and Linux fans have a lot of respect for Woz.
The thing about Woz is that he never cared about the credit or the money, Woz only cared about helping to create the technology and starting the revolution.
@@aryanbaviskar4127 Don't be so sure. It's only been in recent years since movies like Jobs and Steve Jobs came to be, and even those don't credit Woz the way that they should.
Finally somebody in tech who's completely honest about the state of AI.
I would like to think more people actually have the same idea, who will be fooled my these Eliza clones we see on many websites today...
yes and i agree with him
I think a lot is going on in "AI" that he's not up on. Great minds are working on this. And although they probably are a long way off from recreating the entire thinking system of an ant, there are some very interesting and useful things that have been done. I'm not sure that we want an AI that functions exactly like a human (or an ant). A lot of it right now is focused on taking a problem, training the AI on the constraints (teaching it what the problem is), and then giving it a huge amount of data to look at. In a way, that's the life of a human. Sometimes I think the biggest thing that makes humans different is the 'jitter' that humans receive all day.
Steve is definitely a genius, but I don’t think he’s especially up on the state of A.i. For starters it’s not saying they are intelligent (in most cases) its that it performs a task which requires intelligence. Also the transistor was a revolutionary invention for humans and it it’s progress rate was to double transistor density every two years. A.I. Has already profoundly impacted our lives mainly doing behind the scenes type work which would be impossible for a human to do in mass, the kicker is that A.I. Is doubling itself 6 times hamster than the transistor is. Steve is great and I agree with a lot of he said in this but I don’t agree with his stance on A.I.
@@mikemichaelson120 Yes but the point Wozniak made is that its NOT intelligence. This was also said by nobel prize winning physicist Sir Roger Penrose. I think Steve is pretty 'up' on the current situation.
I like Woz. I'm glad hes still active and out there influencing others. We could use some more people like him 😊
Yes yes we could use more people like him
yes yes you could 'use' them as you liek
like him too but..uhm... so apple pay is basically designed to be like a credit card... i never uhm... understand this because i am...uhm just using my credit card? :X
Yes i eat a Jeff today...
He was always the nice Steve - the opposite of the other one.
He’s always come across as a good dude. And it’s nice that he hasn’t gone crazy in later years like a few other tech legends might have in recent years.
Wozniak is one heck of a guy. He got to witness the whole technological era by leading it. I’d call it as a perk for being on earth.
depending on your age (mine b. '63) yeah, from Time magazine Computer of the Year; but at the same time too the climate is nothing like when I was a kid making me worry more about the world our grandkids will inherit. the present day is nothing like I thought it would be 40+ years ago
@@laszlozoltan5021It’s terrible.
nah man bruh@@thekub32
Yea, he helped create the end of freedom. We’re enslaved by this shit now.
Steve Wozniak always feels like a person that has way too much to say for so little time.
Christoph Schoppe you're right!'
He seems like a really nice guy
So true.
He doesn’t get enough air time. Would love him to do a tech podcast or something.
He does.
He is a true engineer, he just want to make stuff he himself is interested in. Nice to hear
Peter Steffensen Like a musician.
I think true engineer wouldn't want this much public appearance. True engineer startup founders? Think Google or Tesla (Not Elon Musk, he didn't start or even had the idea)
@Thrillcekr Wozniak time was the past. It's gone. But he kept digging it to be in the spotlight. He doesn't wanna let SJ rest in peace.
@Thrillcekr enjoy your time on YT comment section! Lol
Right!
Wozniak is a genius we shouldn't take him being around for granted.
i agree, i wish he would take better care of his health
I agree. I love this man.
Nah hes a dumbass. Doesn't even understand the term AI. Like wtf. "Let me see what my ass thinks"
@@cjwidener5397 like he was saying "the most stupid person" i think i found it
@@cjwidener5397 He's not wrong when he said we can't even make an intelligence as small as an ant. AI stands for Artificial Intelligence, but the term "Intelligence" isn't even agreed by everyone. Heck, you can even call a normal person unintelligible.
WOZ. A guy without an ego problem like some of the other tech giants. He was the designer and builder of the Apple 1 and 2. Most of todays tech heavyweights just develop a concept and then take off to let others develop it…then show up later to take the credit.
Thoma
What is it you try to say on understand here ?
he is just the best electronic wizard, not the great visonair, use less parts, keep it cheap...
Today ? are you creative or do you need orders ?
@@lucasremhe probably think apple 1 is the first computer in the world
Like steve jobs he did not make shit he just sold it do stupid consumers and took all the credit for it.
when I realized he was almost 70 years old, I was shocked. dude looks like he takes great care of himself.
70? i- no way he looks like mid 50s except the grey hair
most straightforward thinker and non competitive guy like him would live least to their 80s, he also look extremely vibrant. guys like job who over compete and think too hard on themself dies quicker, just the way unlimited stress destroys the body.
@@kubes8388 agreed, big wake up call for me
@@kubes8388 no doubt stress destroys the body but something like cancer which Steve has had nothing to do with attitude. He was a dick and excessive no doubt, but the guy didn't give a shit about power or anything like that either. The likes of Warren buffet or Rockefeller lived/living till a really old age despite their drive being better than others
I think stress even directly causes the cancer cause its weaken the immunity system.
The interviewer did a great job, asked the right questions and then listen to without interrupting. Woz as always is Incredible.
this guy is 70 years old. 69 when the interview was made. He looks so fricking good and mentally healthy, crazy!
nice

Such a humble guy.
He reminds me of my dad. Such a down to earth guy and just absolutely loves technology. Doesn't care what others think, doesn't seek fame or profits.
me too , me too :(
He interviews with someone who has 3,000 subscribers on UA-cam. That should tell you what kind of person he is.
One of his nostrils has better airflow than all the latest MacBooks combined.
cocain is hell of a drug
So does your girlfriend's lower cavities, nitwit.
I never really noticed it until this video but hit right nostril looks like he got a marble stuck up there.
@@ezowin_5233 yeah wouldn't doubt it. It was really prevalent in the computing scene back then. IBM teams staying up for a week straight etc.
NJTDover yikes, buddy has never heard a joke before
this is a weird interview man, sit the man down, give him a drink, dont do it in the middle of the hall somewhere
I felt that way too, but Woz had no trouble handling it.
Camera angle right up his nostril too
Woz doesn't care about formality..the guy is just a regular guy...not weird at all.
I feel like he ambushed him 😆 lol
streamer. in the world of tinkers we can talk about our passions anywhere!
He’s so well spoken. We need more individuals like him
Yes, I've got similar realization. It's a pleasure to listen to him.
sorry he's a rare species
Peter Greek yes like it is apparent how intelligent and passionate he is but he communicates so clearly. Oftentimes very smart people have a hard time not sounding like a robot spewing information and technical jargon. Very inspiring guy to listen to
Wowz for President! Of the world!
Good observation. In response I will encourage you and everyone who agrees with you to BE the change you wish to see in the world.
Be kind, be gentler, be more patient and speak nicely to and about people you don’t know. 🙂
This guy looks like a regular dude but he is a genius, he invented the personal computer. I have massive respect for great geniuses who don't act like they are better than others. Great guy!
No offence but the personal computer was invented 6 years prior to the first Apple pc and Wozniak even drew inspiration from that machine (sorry can't remember the actual name)
@@neek01 Xerox PARC ???
@@neek01 obviously no one person invent something like this, but you have to put in your “no offense” comment which usually means “I’m about to say something offensive”. Whateves
@@sethtenrec and its alwayyys spelt wrong!
@@sethtenrec The question is always what you mean by "personal computer". As you may have suggested, it wasn't much of an "invention" really, more a new attitude towards the usage of computers that grew successively for decades. Scientists and engineers often regard 1960s programmable scientific calculators from Olivetti and Hewlett Packard as the first personal computers ("computers" in a more original sense). Others would say that a programmable "terminal" like the Datapoint 2200 was the first actual PC (because it spawned Z80 and x86). Some see an early 8080 system running a BASIC interpreter as the first PC (because they admire Microsoft). However, most people would say that the IBM PC was the first personal computer, because of its name and its impact, despite being basically just a beefed up copy of S-100 and CP/M systems. I personally would say that the first personal computer was the Xerox Alto of 1972, although simpler computers like the Apple II, TRS-80, and all their followers got much more attention.
(Discussing history can hardly be "offensive".)
I love Wozniak. He's the definition of someone who's driven by passion.
Steve Jobs was driven by passion as well but he sacrificed his family and friends for it.
Some username you got there. I'll fuck off now.
@@rommix0 you can get a pass and stick around a little bit longer brother.
and tim cook..... driven by money and profit bruhmeme
@@ivs721 Except Tim Cook has like a 1% of Steve Jobs' charisma
@@tweedle634 You're too kind.
It's so hard not to love such a genuine person.
This dude has such a pure heart. I admire guys like Woz with the mindset that rather want to join a company that do good for humanity and not go for the highest paid job at corrupt companies.
That's because he can now afford to only care about what he wants. You can only do that when you have everything you need.
Is he really doing good? all this technology has the goal to make us obedient and controlled...
@Caleb P I disagree with this. I don't think opening up the OS will benefit the regular crowd of people. The lovely thing about iPhones and macOS is that even non-tech oriented people can operate these devices. I've had multiple people keep messing up their Android phones because it gives them too much freedom where I advised them to switch to iOS and loved the carefree experience. And I truly believe that people that have a passion for tech will gravitate more towards Android, Linux like I did when I was younger.
@Caleb P Plus Woz has been bought out of his company a long long time ago. He can say whatever he thinks or wants for Apple, but remember that Apple is not that california startup that started in a garage it once was. It's a trillion dollar company ran by greedy profit makers.
@Caleb P i do agree with you on that level. I know Louis Rossman his channels his feud with Apple and I support guys like him to take it up against these greedy businesses. I have an Android but one time I switched to iPhone to see how it was, but the experience was just too limiting for me as a power-user so I switched back immediately. Like I said I do agree with you, but the truth is that Woz has zero input or influence on the course of the company anymore.
He seems so positive, active, down to earth, and just “present”.
Biggest nostrils ever. Sucks up 60% more oxygen = enhanced brain activity. Genius.
I had the same thought.
Thats his coke nostril
60% more oxygen and more
80’s coke was good shit
You are not wrong!
You gotta luv this guy. He's the kind of talker that excites other people. His love of his life and his journey from there to here is contagious and inspiring. The stars must have aligned perfectly to bring Woz ad Steve Jobs together at the absolutely perfect time and the perfect place to work their world-changing magic.
Yea, like all those ping-pong champs from that village in England.
Sounds like woz is a big fan of open source hardware and open source software. I like him.
He is a big fan of open source.
Wozniak is the Android OS of Apple Founders :p
@@TheKartoffel101 He blows up like a Galaxy Note and is full of viruses?
@@orestes1984 He is caplable to work with all different brands and not just Apple ;)
This is mentioned in the Steve Jobs bio. Woz always wanted to go open source, but Steve knew the business benefits of a walled garden.
The part where he mentioned focusing on the smaller problems because someone with more money is focusing on the big problems using the same knowledge from the same books available at the time. That's the sort of wisdom I love from people like Woz. 👍
Woz is a treasure.
He's a guy that you can tell cares about his craft and tech without filler or an agenda, he is legitimately honest.
"Yes sir, everything is very expensive, because you're paying for it on an i-Pad..."
Imagine how life would be if more humans thought like Mr. Wozniak
Imagine how much good to the world the people could do if they weren't interested in recognition or profit...
@@rooster443 yes, then we could all have our own 🦄 and fluffy clouds would be all around... SMH
@@wlonsdale1 Anyway, its good to live a life of knowledge than being a dog chasing money. You're living it, only with a ****ng collar around the neck so what. All I am saying is that if you don't have the money is pretty much not possible doing something worth due to regulations. Don't ruin a day man, SYT.
Yeah people not giving their kids smartphones as the first thing in their hands at birth
There is no doubt at all the earth would be a kinder, nicer place. I think the world of Woz, except when he exhibits California disease, wherein he can't get through a conversation without throwing in a word for gays and transgender people. But he's a far better person that Jobs ever was.
His brain moves FAST
he's a mathematician and an electrical engineer, what did you expect?
Except for when he’s thinking of PR answers (read: lying) at the end there.
This is such a great look into the mind of a real engineer. "How can we make things better that people do every day, and make them happier." Love Woz!
This guy is a living legend

Woz is one of the very rare persons who stand for doing all things right or not doing them, including ethical considerations.
"I was very shy and didn't want to compete head on" so he made things nobody thought about. Amazing insight!

Brilliant computer engineer. He reduced a motherboard to one third it’s size just able to fit on a desk. The Apple I was the first best selling desktop PC which made the two Steve’s rich and famous. Later IBM and Microsoft made first DOS computer.
You’re referring to the Apple ][ 😉
Microsoft bought DOS from some nobody genius.

@@thekub32 But not a great one.
He bought both DOS and BASIC from real programmers. You can't be both a programmer and ruthlessly run a company.
That said... He made the right choice, since I've never met a billionaire programer.
@GregMoress Gary kildal created the 1st dos calling it qdos but done it as a hobby then more or less gave it away (even though IBM approached him) & Gates picked up on it & the rest is history

He does looks squishy.

Ur just calling him fat -nicely- lol
This is how engineers who were taught critical thinking back in the day design.. Comprehension not just rote memorization. It makes you mind work in very creative ways.

the education system sucks and today's corporation as well tbh
The Woz sounds like he does not like subscription software, and who could blame Him!!!.
YA !! Well I don't hear WOZ bitching about all the million$ he made thx to Steve Jobs !😏
I don't like subscription software either. I want to buy it once and be done.
He definitely seems like a guy that pushes for more pro-consumer models. I understand that he was a big proponent of the apple 2 user expandability.
@@massapower Have you heard about "breakthrough"? Jobs literally scammed Wozniak. Wozniak also designed the Apple I, the computer that started the microcomputer boom and also the Apple ][, the computer family at the core of the business strategy of their company from 1977 until 1992. So, who made money thanks to who else?
@@retroand Either way "WOZ" ain't bitching on the millions he made thx to Mr. JOB$ 😎✌
I like the integrity and sincerity of this man. He kept in his whole life a 'standard' stance and never derailed.
“The most important thing is integrity“. I always loved this man when he speaks.
This guy is a genius, he provided so much knowledge in a few minutes, great.
People who know what they're talking about basically inform and educate listeners with every word.
People who don't know what they're talking about just bullshit others with the same bullshit they heard from others.
3:42 “I would like something that washes my dishes” Steve mate ur not gonna believe this...
Stop right there❎
Dead 🤣
Wait. You mean that there is a machine that is a dish WASHER?
Despite the levity, I like the essence of what he is saying. Big tech companies should hire people who sit around a table and make lists of real problems in life. They could elicit the thoughts of individuals outside of the tech industry. After that, assign some of their engineers to solve those problems. I live in the Silicon Valley. The problem with the "focus groups," "usability studies," etc. are that they tend to focus on making existing products better (via UI, usability, etc.). I've always thought that it would be nice to simply have companies like Apple, Google, Samsung, etc. identifying problems before they build a product in the first place. When they find a trend that is common with more people, they should work to come up with solutions.
For instance, I hate having to turn down the TV during commercial breaks (or for previews before or after a show). Wouldn't it be great for a smart TV to moderate the sound output so that it lowers the volume during commercial breaks? Advertisers might not like it, but consumers would be happy -- and they'd probably jump on a TV with that option. It would truly be a "smart" television.
This one went right over ur head...
Chris M yeah I very much agree, sort of what Steve Jobs wanted to achieve in a way with his philosophy of identifying a problem or a gap in the market and then figuring out what technology could solve that rather than coming up with a technology and trying to market it.
The amount of respect I have for him is something I can’t put into words. He made Apple - the product, not necessarily the company - and yet most people don’t know who he is. He was never a corporate sellout, much respect.
Now this is the guy that should be running Apple. Tim Cook is the supply chain guy and he’s doing well but Apple needs another tech nerd in charge.
Absolutely he would be great running it.
Yeah but I don’t know if Steve would want to run apple. I don’t think him being a business owner was something he wanted to do
@Sebaka & Co. Consumers haven’t really changed but the nature of the stock market has. It seems like CEOs only exist now to please shareholders, which is kinda what your comment leads to. The problem with that is that companies fall apart if they just try to please shareholders. Look at GE for example.
@@SurpriseMechanics Yep, the key is to find a middle ground between those two extremes.
@Newtube that's probably what sculley would've said

Steve Wozniak is an individual with a great deal of personal integrity.
"Innovation isn't asking people what they want, it's showing people what they need before they knew they wanted it" ~ Steve Jobs

@@unknown81360 You beat me to the punch! Jobs loved that quote, along with Gretsky's line "I don't skate to where the puck is, I skate to where I think the puck is going to be."

@Ben Mr Putz to you pal!
that's mass manipulation, not innovation
It’s such a pleasure to have Steve Wozniak still with us on this earth. Him and Steve are true legends and will remain that way for years to come. Both geniuses ❤️
Steve Jobs was the worst. He's not a legend. He's a deadbeat dad who let his own daughter live on welfare while he was worth hundreds of millions of dollars. He named a computer after her and still denied paternity. He stole money from Wozniak. He stole ideas from everyone and claimed they were his own. He stole his workers' lives and joy. He humiliated people regularly. He pitted his Macintosh team against the rest of the company. He was so awful his own company fired him.
Once Jobs finally admitted paternity, he had his daughter Lisa over and started groping his girlfriend's chest in front of Lisa, who was 9, yes NINE, years old. And that wasn't even the sickest things he did or talked about with Lisa while she was still very young. I'd say more, but it would get deleted.
Steve Jobs is not a legend. He's a dead despot and a disgusting creep. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
Don't you dare put Wozniak in the same category as Jobs.
Steve Wozniak is such a gem! He never lost that curiosity to find out how things work and build things, we often lose when we become adults. I feel I share so much in common.
Finally someone said it. We don’t have Artificial Intelligence! It’s just algorithms, two very different things!
Correction, we have AI, its just not very intelligent, but it can solve problems. What we dont have is General Artificial Intelligense, two very different things!
@@jimmydiaz1502 it's more like a fuzzy function generator for a very tightly specified problem. Still amazing stuff.
@@jimmydiaz1502 But in terms of the public when they think of Machine Learning they imagine something like General AI and I think it's such a common misconception that what he says has merit. I may be a lowly senior in CS, but learning the underpinnings of Machine Learning really does take a lot of the magic out of it, although there is great potential in what we have now it probably isn't what sci-fi writers dreamed of.
in fact, AI is impossible because it needs of awareness to not follow just orders trhough orders, through a system of orders (algorythms), in order to find the right solution. Without awareness of itself and the context, all the meanings attached to things has no meaning for an AI and that's why it will keep failing on for example, carrying X from point A to point B by using the shortest path instead of what common sense tells about which is the best way and the best path to go from A to B. Algorythms are just man made automations; AI is actually us.
I like Steve Wozniak because he was an honest guy!
This is such an incredible interview, they're literally standing in some sort of cafeteria area but you almost dont even notice because this gentleman asked very inquisitive questions. Wozniak is so thoughtful and intelligent and it shows when he speaks. I could listen to him all day because he talks about such complex issues and ideas with ease. I think if Steve Wozniak were in control of Apple to this day it would be the only phone and computer anyone uses.
Besides his brains, I've always admired his diplomacy, his positivity and his willingness to take a longer view. However, I think his (totally understandable) soft spot for Apple causes him to pull his punches a bit much.
Agree 💯. Apple has become at least in some ways the exact _opposite_ of what Woz envisioned when he co-founded it with Jobs.
IPhones and iPads are completely locked down unless one jailbreaks, which is becoming less popular and has its risks & compromises. MacOS is at least Unix-based but also locked down; it's nice that Apple endorses BootCamp for those who want/need it.
Woz designed the Apple I, II and IIe specifically to be open-source since his background was as a board guy and modder/tinkerer.
You basically violate your Apple warranty these days if you dare so much as to open a Mac or i-device on your own, let alone try to change anything ! 😩
@@Sharky165 What do you even by "MacOS is also locked down"? You can even edit the kernel there.
@@paulu_ I guess he didn't figure out you can disable system integrity protection, lol
@@paulu_ You guys are the typical people who cherry pick one thing out of the many things somebody said and make an argument about it meanwhile completely ignoring the rest of his points. So just a translation he meant that apple devices mainly iPhones and iPads are limiting what you can do with them and if you want to do more with your own device that you own and paid for then you have to jailbreak it, or if you want to modify your Mac you will void your warranty just by opening it which is pretty dumb because once again if you paid for something you should be able to have 100% control it and do whatever you want with it without the bureaucratic bullshit.
Im sorry but if a company sells you something and they say what you can do and what you cant with it then you dont really own it, its either yours or its not, it cant be 50-50.
Xalzor
You *can* modify your hardware - you’ll just lose your warranty. It’s a very common practice among manufacturers. Why would they be responsible for you fucking up your own PC?
iPads and iPhones are locked up - that’s true. Honestly, I’ve never had any intent to modify software on my phone, so that doesn’t bother me at all. But I know many people, who are bothered by it - those people are free to buy android phones. Nobody forces anyone to buy an iPhone.
I’ve objected to the MacOS argument, because it was the only one that was objectively false. The rest of them were just matters of opinion.
A great guy who I admire a lot.
You can tell his thought process is on a different level.
He has been my hero since I was a kid learning to program in the 80s. Now that the apple story is far beyond the initial Woz/Jobs building the first personal computer (apple II) in a garage, I feat Woz no longer gets the attention he deserves:
I got my computer engineering undergrad degree at the univetsity of Illinois (Champaign Urbana) in 1998, and one of the toughest classes was going through the process o building a complete personal computer at the chip level. It was on a simulator/cad type system, but it was roughly equivalent to what they built in that garage. And even at one of the hardesr curriculums at one of the toughest universitjes, that was perhaps the most difficult class in the entire free degree. - and we had proven designs to go by and the hardware trouble free world of a simulator.
I cannot express even to other engineers just how amazing his initial accomplishment really was and how special and elegantly genius the design was even years after Turing or Moore or Meely etc...
First time to hear "real" Wozniak talk, and I started to like him! A lot!
You have just had the privilege of hearing the thoughts of a living legend.
Imagine if people said this about the bible, people would cry about that statement.
@aaron names I didn't think it was all that confusing: brief, yes, but not confusing. He said that he thought Jobs would be happy with the current state of Apple and also that Jobs would want to continue to be a part of it. The fact that the title of the video suggests that this will be all about Steve Jobs' opinion of Apple Inc. today is far more misleading that Wozniak's answer. [EDIT] The interviewer did not even ask this question until very late in the discussion.
DATo DATonian yeah. They need to sit down with this guy for an entire weekend and I bet they’d still have things to talk about.
Woz is a prime example of doing what you love and love what you’re doing.
By doing what you love, you have the chance of doing the best things. Most companies looks for profits in the first place, so they'll never be the best. Money should be the consequence, never the goal.
😮
This was a really really good interview. Kudos to the interviewer for asking deep questions that help Woz going for deeper answers.
+1
Such pure passion for technology. He is a treasure. We must preserve him and his ideas for future generations to learn. We need more people like him.
Finally someone with great knowledge of computing calls AI just another computer program instead of calling it the end of mankind like Elon Musk.
LMAO, exactly what I was thinking. Really can't understand people who think of AI will take over the world and supersede human intelligence...🤦♂️
@@msujonbd it certainly can. It'll just take awhile.
@@scottyhaines4226 Please enlighten us with the motivations of a machine... ours come from our own biology; survival, procreation and knowing that we are going to die. You can make todays AI infinitely more powerful and it will still not have any real intelligence or motivation. Very useful for many things, and great things are coming in the future, but I believe it will remain a tool without it's own desires.
@@JoypadDivison In fact, I think that the lack of true motivation IS the danger. The autopilot itself has no motivation to get to neither Nairobi nor Sydney. But it does, and this without intelligently questioning the task. I'm with Elon and Scotty on this one.
Haha Agree
Steve Jobs would have never approved so many different models.
True
If it breaks quickly, it is a guaranteed sale of a new ine
or less quality yet more expensive
He would have discontinued the iphone by now.
Your the only other person who agrees with me on that yess
It's good to see Woz calling out AI for what it is - a marketing scam. What an absolute legend. He is what i would describe as a proper American, intelligent, polite and full of respect for others. Kudos also for giving that young man a decent interview.
His words didn't age well because it is absolutely taking off. I'm a PhD in academia and everyone uses ChatGPT for improving their writing and balling ideas. Some use it for programming and checking their code. If you don't understand how great AI is by now, then you're just not smart enough to use it to your advantage.
Woz is an engineer, not a researcher. He can't invent new things or see the future. He can only take what exists and change it.
@@treali But you can’t deny the people using the term “AI” as a marketing buzzword to make a quick buck. There isn’t much AI outside of ChatGPT that isn’t garbage.
Not to mention the proverbial slime oozing off these AI grifters selling their “courses” and vastly overblowing AI’s present capabilities.
@@trealino, he’s totally right, what’s taking off isn’t true AI. The technology that has been branded as AI is taking off, but that technology isn’t actual intelligence, like he said.
Woz was a genius until his brain was damaged in an accident. Now he is just a smart guy.
Proper american is a dying art form...
The man is a genius and humble. Don’t think we will see another quite like him.
Steve Jobs: "where's the headphone jack?"
Steve jobs removed the CD drive from the MB air, and the floppy drive from the iMac
Nah, I think Steve would have eventually done that. Tim Cook doing it was a cheap and easy way to emulate Steve Jobs, but I still think Steve would have done the same eventually.
@@kimjongoof5000 lighter, super thin portable products
Jobs would have sold it to you guys as a feature and everyone would be proud of not having an analog ancient connector on his phone.
L3P3 That’s exactly what they did. “Courage” and “better waterproofing”
Woz is always a class act.
I can attest to that. Back in early 2000's I worked at the Apple store in Valley Fair (San Jose) and Woz would come in to buy stuff. He was most unassuming, very polite and treated the sales staff as equals. A class act indeed.
Interesting to hear his take on AI and machine learning from this interview. Shows you how crazy fast that entire technology has moved in just three years.
Yeah, his comments on AI have not aged well although given where AI was over 3 years ago you can see why he held the opinion. Hindsight is 20/20. It's easy to poke holes in what he said about AI now, but 3 years ago I would have given a very similar answer. The human mind is not wired to intuit exponential growth. In 3 years AI has come further than in the last 15. I don't think even the AI researchers themselves could have predicted we would be where we are now just a few years back.
I think he’s right - AI is mostly hype, it hasn’t come ‘that far’ in 3 years. The media has made it popular but as he said it’s NOT intelligence
@@kirbyjoe7484 He was pretty clear. AI doesn't ask itself "What should I do today". You have to tell AI to be "intelligent"
No global warming either.@@thenexusagency
@@kirbyjoe7484well yeah he wasn't really wrong about that one. I think he was implying that human consciousness is still fundamentally different, even though AI is intelligent and does a great job at imitation. I mean, to this day, consciousness is actually still a problem in both science and philosophy. We have not able to intellectually understand consciousness, where it comes from and how it truly works.
After all the fame and fortune and he's still down to earth enough to listen to the questions and provide genuine answers. I kept getting the sense that he was more invested in the conversation than the reporter was.
The reporter was just shy
Nah the reporter was stuttering and shit he was into that 😏
The thing I love the most is his enthusiasm. He is an inspiration to us all.
This man deserves way more credit, he was the master mind behind apple. Steve Jobs just made in well known.
no he wasn't.
@@vorjay True. Steve Jobs was an engineer
Nah man jobs was 10x smarter. Unfortunately, being smart means making money. Most of the time when you make billions of dollars you are often severely screwing many people over. It’s just the way of life. There will always be slaves/cheap labor.
Mr. IDonnoMyName they’re both similar. That why they’re often compared. I’d bet their IQ is very comparable if a test were possible at their peak.
I would kill to be able to sit with Steve Wozniak for a day and pick his mind about all sorts of things. A very interesting and intellectual individual.
He has this comforting presence to him. Hes like your grandfather that always has a story.
Something about the way he talks and his eyes shows that he’s a very kind and decent man. He just gives out that aura.
'I don't watch television'
Ah, I see you're a man of taste as well.
Me either.Cool.
Social Media is the New tell-a-vision
most people dont nowadays
This comment....Ah, I see you’re a man of culture as well.
UA-cam is exactly the same thing
This guy is just on a completely different level, but still grounded. He's living his best life. Considering what hes contributed, he deserves every bit of it.
When he was asked about how his presentation went, he didn't just say something like "Yeah they really liked ME ". He said that he was happy the way it went for THEM and that he delivered it in a way that they appreciated it. The importance of developing makers instead of takers in society is also bang on.
What a guy...Integrity? He has it
You can see how smart Steve Wozniak is by simply noticing when he was being asked question, he instantly replied without any long thinking, he has very fast brain and he use it to help humanity, very noble.
I feel like I watched something important.
I love Wozniak. He built the Apple One because he couldn't afford his own computer. He's not driven by money, he's driven by extreme innovation and making things work no matter what.
“Desperation is the bastard father of invention.”
I bet The Great Woz would be a great uncle to have. He’s just so humble, intelligent, and rational. A rare genius with no ego 🙂
What a heart warming character. What a legend
steve was so lucky to have such a naive hyper simple nerd to work for him without getting distracted.
IKR
which steve
Chad X they worked Together. He wasn’t just the hired help
He is not naive he has an ideology learn the difference.
Not just smart, he has a lot of practical wisdom. It's fun to listen to him talk
Every answer he gives is so refreshing, well thought and inspiring! I love the attitude too!
"Self experimentation is what my life's about"
There’s a reason why San Jose named a street after him, Woz Way next to the Children’s Discovery Museum. Kids my age learned on Mac, it was apart of our life and created many people who went on to create the companies and tech we know today. Not the policies behind them but the hardware and software itself. It makes sense. The man should give speeches in schools to motivate children to be more like him and understand how to be good people and techies for the good of humanity.
He speaks the truth! "alot of what you own as a product, you don't own anymore"
Subscription based services are jank btw
He's right it's all about money.
"I just want to make little odd things"
Yes he's genuinely right. Every word.
@@genisbibin8292 Yeah, this is why I don't touch apple shit anymore, I used to love them, then they proritised sales and profit over the customers, and I'm like, no thanks.
Not to mention that the harder a device is to take apart and the the harder it is to repurpose, the harder it is to recycle, it's not like plastic or cars, you can't just melt it down, there's so many materials crammed into a small little unibody package, you can't just separate it all. Super bad for the environment.
@@Decco6306 Yes that's correct. It's really sad and disappointing. Nowadays it's all about money and fame and don't give a shit about the consumer or create/invent something. All money siphoners, who siphon funds of people from subscriptions and deals, like what Steve Wozniak spoke about. I wish if Steve was still alive, atleast he wouldn't Price Out the consumer, like what they're doing with current Apple products today. Poor Steve Jobs, he will be missed badly. 😢
Kipper Klank
Never thought of that part about their product being difficult to recycle
Kipper Klank- I hate the god damn subscription that I wanted to throw a bomb to the person who invented it. Eventually, I will pay a subscription to have a partner or we are already have...! On the funny side, subscription for sex...!
Words can't describe how much I admire this man.
I love how wozniak explain about the meaning of intellligent, he says “we never think making a computer that would say, what should i do today?” great explanation and i agree with him that something what we thought of as artificial intelligent is not what is meant
Such a genuine person, and a fellow techie... Could listen to his wisdom all day long.
Co-founder of apple..
... wearing an nvidia jacket.
Love it!
FriendlyFentonVeasey it was probably free lol. That is the only reason. Smart move on NVidia’s end.
It doesn’t need a tech nerd necessarily. It needs a visionary leader.
especially since all new Apple computers after like 2009 or something use AMD cards, and are in dispute with Nvidia last time i heard xD
Well spotted.
Macbooks had NVIDIA gpus back in the day
Steve Jobs: I’ve been dead for 9 years and here are my first impressions.
But, wait we have one more thing, eternal life!
His comments at 1:35 make me happy he said what he said. He’s always been right to repair
No one show him GPT-4
This just in: Steve Wozniak doesn’t own a dishwasher
UPDATE: The Woz does not own a "smart washer" ... because
because all AI is the dumbs!
Because, because, because - because of the wonderful things he does.
You mean that thing you put the dishes in after you washed them by hand?
Corky Stanton Yeah I agree, he meant a totally automated machine that would do the whole process, start to finish. Todays dishwashers are more like “dish-disinfectors” or “dish de-greasers”. When you still have to remove all the gross soil, rinse and load it/unload it manually it sort of loses the over-hyped convenience aspect. Not an intelligent machine in the least.
Like most Asians
