Unexpected invasions: Even advanced technology can't prevent all unexpected invasions, so it's important to take basic precautions to protect ourselves from potential hazards.
Even the most advanced technology, like a car's air filter or a Tesla's AI assistant, can't always protect us from unexpected invasions, such as ants or mishaps, like a friend ruining a date. The speaker shared a story from high school about a friend who forgot to lock his car, leading to someone leaving a styrofoam cup with human waste in it. The car then became infested with ants, ruining the friend's date. This experience reminded the speaker of his own recent encounter with ants in his car, despite its advanced air filter.
