Jurassic Park

“I mean this is uh essentially literally wild. This is essentially real life Jurassic Park.”

“This is kind of the idea behind Jurassic Park, right? You've had to have been influenced by that movie.”

“What's interesting about Jurassic Park is that it did a great job of showcasing and educating the world about genetic engineering. Now, we're not doing exactly what they did in Jurassic Park.”

“Now, we're not doing exactly what they did in Jurassic Park. They were taking ancient DNA from amber to fill in the gaps of dinosaur DNA with frog DNA.”

“I like to think of it as being slightly smarter than Jurassic Park. What's interesting is that George Church's original work, which I forgot the specifics of, was on yeast or something.”

“What's interesting is that George Church's original work, which I forgot the specifics of, was on yeast or something. But his research shows up in Michael Crichton's book.”

“If you want to be technical, I would argue that Jurassic Park was inspired by George. In a way, I think it's completely the other way around; he should be getting royalties on it.”

“We didn't copy Jurassic Park; they copied my co-founder George Church, who, for those listening, is kind of the OG. He's like the Mick Jagger of genetic engineering and DNA.”

“A kid came by and asked if he could look for fossils, and it was right after the movie Jurassic Park came out. The dinosaur craze was high and it just really piqued my interest, and I started spending every free minute I had learning what I could about dinosaurs.”

“so if you have liked the man on a high castle or Timeless or Michael Crichton Jurassic Park adventure stories like that then you will love the infinite infinite”

“That he, it's like the thing in Jurassic Park, you were thinking so much about whether you could, you didn't ask yourself if you should. Like you were just, it seems like your big argument was like why aren't there other things to value in life?”

“Well the same guy who wrote jurassic park”

“i don't know what you're talking about oh i know you're talking about it i would um recommend jurassic park by michael crichton but then the movie came out so it might not be the same experience i had i read it before the movie”

“And now we have to just I think face the reality that we are in competition And I think that's what is making the press even more complicated I'm not saying the press is targeting people they consider competitive But the press is not getting Vlad Elon Or Zuck for interviews But because Mark Andreessen has you know Clubhouse now”

“michael crichton the same author of Jurassic Park”

“The good news is we’ve got Cathy Kennedy, Steven Spielberg, and Michael Crichton with a detailed book that’s going to be a best-seller about dinosaurs, and we've got a screenplay and it’s going to cost this much money. Well, we own it, and you don’t. Now take those six to eight other studios that don’t get that phone call—they're not”
