Can Silicon Valley really “take over the world”? According to two viral videos – one from Peter Thiel, another from Yaz and Feras – it might already be happening. Not with robots and war, however, but with quiet influence, big money, and addictive products.

In this episode, Chris and Yaniv watch and react to both videos: one a tongue-in-cheek blueprint for how ChatGPT could dominate human decision-making, and the other a real clip of billionaire Peter Thiel describing how to bypass democracy through tech.

It’s entertaining, yes, but it’s also deeply unsettling. Are we too busy laughing at AI memes while the real power shift happens behind closed doors?

In this clip:
* Yaz & Feras’ satirical “ChatGPT world domination plan” (and how much is already real)
* Why Peter Thiel thinks democracy is too slow and tech should lead instead
* How startups are used to push political agendas without voter consent
* Why the real takeover is cognitive, not military
