Speaker 1: You're listening to Comedy Central coming to you from New
Speaker 1: York City. Ple Louse me City an emerg It's the
Speaker 1: Daily Show tonight, the election denier that wants your vote,
Speaker 1: mir and Murdy Ralph Matto. He's the Daily Show with
Speaker 1: Forever No Everybody, Welcome to the day Shows coming on.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for tuning in, and thank you
Speaker 1: for coming out and happen to see, just to see.
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for being you. Take a seat, everybody.
Speaker 1: We've got a really fun show for you tonight. And
Speaker 1: McDonald's legend is saying goodbye. We expose the truth behind recycling.
Speaker 1: And do you want to know what Trump in a
Speaker 1: dress looks like? Well, stay tunes are find out, So
Speaker 1: let's do these people. Let's jup straight into today's headlines.
Speaker 1: Right before we get into the big story, let's catch
Speaker 1: up on a few other things going on in the world,
Speaker 1: starting with some fashion news. Added As has officially ended
Speaker 1: its partnership with Kanye West off the public outcast, or
Speaker 1: there is news anti Semitic remarks. But good news, good news.
Speaker 1: You can still get a pair of Yeasys. You just
Speaker 1: have to take a normal pair of sneakers and microwave
Speaker 1: them for thirty minutes. In Environmental News and You studied
Speaker 1: by Green Piece, USA has declared plastic recycling as a
Speaker 1: failed concept, saying that only five percent of plastic waste
Speaker 1: was actually recycled last year. Yeah, and I can't wait
Speaker 1: to tell this to those people who would getting mad
Speaker 1: at me from not putting my plastic in the recycling
Speaker 1: And you didn't unscrew a thing. It didn't actually, yeah,
Speaker 1: this is why I didn't do it. I mean I
Speaker 1: didn't know that at the time. I was just being lazy.
Speaker 1: But this is why I did it. For the future.
Speaker 1: But you realize what the solution is here, right? We
Speaker 1: need to stop using single use plastic. We just need
Speaker 1: to stop using it a lot of people. It needs
Speaker 1: to be banned from the top. No more, nore plastic
Speaker 1: water bottles. We all do it. I do it, you'd
Speaker 1: we all do it no more. We need to be
Speaker 1: drinking out of materials that are easier to reuse, like
Speaker 1: glass or tin, or the skulls of our enemies. Our
Speaker 1: ancestors knew what they were doing. I have first bring
Speaker 1: me the skull of Jehosa fact, unless my my garfield
Speaker 1: is the goldfield McLean. No, then bring me the skull
Speaker 1: of Jehosa hearts and in fast food news, McDonald's has
Speaker 1: announced that they once again bringing back the mac rib,
Speaker 1: but this time they claim it could be the last
Speaker 1: time ever, which is shocking to me. I never thought
Speaker 1: people who eat the mac rib would out lost in
Speaker 1: the mac rib. Wow, you learned something every day. All right,
Speaker 1: let's turn to the big news of the day. It's
Speaker 1: about the mid term elections. You know that all important
Speaker 1: day in November where you vote for a senator or
Speaker 1: a congressman and then a bunch of positions you're not
Speaker 1: even really sure are real. But this November, this November,
Speaker 1: there's one governor's race that could change things, not just
Speaker 1: for their state, but for everyone. And I'm talking about Arizona.
Speaker 1: It's the state for people who like Texas but wish
Speaker 1: you had more scorpions and old people. Right now, in Arizona,
Speaker 1: Republican Carry Lake is in a neck and neck race
Speaker 1: against Democrat Katie Hobbs, and if Lake wins, it could
Speaker 1: change the course of American democracy itself. So let's get
Speaker 1: to know her better. In our latest installments of Fringe Watching,
Speaker 1: meets Carry Lake, candidate for Arizona governor and boss who's
Speaker 1: gonna send you back to Starbucks until you learn the
Speaker 1: difference between a flat white and allat tell you moron.
Speaker 1: All the newcomers to mega politics, Carry Lake is making
Speaker 1: the biggest waves. She defeated a mainstream Republican in the primaries.
Speaker 1: She's endorsed by Donald Trump himself, right, and she insists
Speaker 1: on saying Merry Christmas, even in July, and every time
Speaker 1: she opens her mouth, every single time she speaks, you
Speaker 1: can see why the Trump crowd loves her. As governor,
Speaker 1: I will issue a declaration and invasion finished President Trump's wall,
Speaker 1: blow up the cartel's drug tunnels and surveillance drones, and
Speaker 1: deploy the Arizona National Guard to stop illegals from entering
Speaker 1: between anti American history that's being taught inappropriate sex education
Speaker 1: and the racist critical race theory, or as I like
Speaker 1: to refer to it, all woke curriculum. It is teaching
Speaker 1: our children hatred. It's time to take a sledge hammer
Speaker 1: to the mainstream media's lies and propaganda. During Pride Month,
Speaker 1: they tweeted they kicked God out of schools and welcomed
Speaker 1: the drag queens. They took down our flank and replaced
Speaker 1: it with the rainbow. Katie Hobbs thinks there are different genders.
Speaker 1: Why don't you go out and try to milk a
Speaker 1: ball and tell me how that goes. GOP strategists say
Speaker 1: she's taking Trump's message and morphing it into her own.
Speaker 1: You can call me Trump in address any day. No, no,
Speaker 1: why didn't she say that? Now I'm picturing a Trump
Speaker 1: in address. I didn't want that image in my head.
Speaker 1: I can see it now. The balls are just dangling
Speaker 1: in the breeze. They looked like two tiny mandarins. Uh oh,
Speaker 1: and each one has a comb over. Why did she
Speaker 1: say that? Why? But yeah, as you can see, Carrie
Speaker 1: Lake is full on megarific. She hates illegal immigrants, drag queens,
Speaker 1: and the mainstream media. I mean, did you see how
Speaker 1: she just smashed the ship out of those TVs, which,
Speaker 1: for some reason, all from thirty years ago already? Why
Speaker 1: are why are those TVs are old? What is her
Speaker 1: whole campaign just an excuse to clean out her garage?
Speaker 1: Big government? It's just like these. There's lawnmower that I
Speaker 1: no longer need. Here Also, for the record, if you
Speaker 1: disagree with what you see on one channel. You don't
Speaker 1: have to sledge hammer the whole TV. You can just
Speaker 1: change the channel to something different. We have that technology now.
Speaker 1: It's the future. Now. If you've only been following her
Speaker 1: for this election, you might think she's your standard right
Speaker 1: wing Republican. You know Maga, this hang, Mike Pence, that
Speaker 1: normal stuff. But what makes Carry lake story fascinating is
Speaker 1: not who she is, but who she used to be.
Speaker 1: Carry Lake used to be known in Arizona as a
Speaker 1: charismatic newscaster. He's a lion, hear him roar, a staple
Speaker 1: on Phoenix TVs for more than two decades. Just over
Speaker 1: a decade ago, she was an Obama donor. Her friends
Speaker 1: described her as liberal, and yet you saw her shipped
Speaker 1: slowly and gradual over the last decade. In several of
Speaker 1: her friends would say she found Trump to be funny
Speaker 1: and defended his craftness. She began spreading internet conspiracy theories
Speaker 1: you can take the hydro hydroxychlora quinn as a preventative.
Speaker 1: Although Lake has criticized drag queens, she was friends with
Speaker 1: a popular local drag queen for twenty years and often
Speaker 1: went to his drag shows. Yeah believe it or not.
Speaker 1: Carry Lake went from being a popular local newscast to
Speaker 1: hating the media. She was personal friends with a drag queen,
Speaker 1: and now she says that there were dangerous to children.
Speaker 1: Plus she was a donut to Barack Obama's campaign Adonna,
Speaker 1: and now she rolls with the guy who thinks Obama
Speaker 1: isn't even American. Like I've heard of people being open
Speaker 1: to change, but this is this is almost not the
Speaker 1: same person. Like I wouldn't be sure if we found
Speaker 1: out that the real Carry Lake is locked up in
Speaker 1: a basement somewhere while this maga alien pretends to be her,
Speaker 1: because because this is a bigger transformation than the drag
Speaker 1: queens that she suddenly hates, which, by the way, it's
Speaker 1: particularly shitty. It's already horrible to turn on any friend,
Speaker 1: but betraying the one who taught you how to get
Speaker 1: your contouring on point that is unforgivable. And you know,
Speaker 1: over the past few years, over the past few years,
Speaker 1: this seems to have happened to a lot of people,
Speaker 1: Like everywhere, everyone has a story about this. They used
Speaker 1: to be normal, living a chilled life, but then they
Speaker 1: clicked on the wrong Facebook post and they got sucked
Speaker 1: in by a few YouTube videos, and the next thing
Speaker 1: you know, they believe the care Bears are actually a
Speaker 1: democratic sex cult that's going to penetrate your children with
Speaker 1: rainbows and and and While she sounds just like Trump
Speaker 1: on most issues, there's one thing carry Lake has in
Speaker 1: common with Trump that is especially dangerous. And I'm not
Speaker 1: talking about a friendship bracelet with Kim Jong. No, no, no,
Speaker 1: I'm talking about her refusal to take an election. L
Speaker 1: anybody who was involved in that corrupt, shady, shoddy election
Speaker 1: of lock them up, no more stolen election. We have
Speaker 1: this illegitimate president Biden. We will no longer accept rigged elections.
Speaker 1: Who's with me on that? You've said that you think
Speaker 1: Trump won Arizona? Do you still believe that? I believe
Speaker 1: Biden is the president just like o J is innocent.
Speaker 1: The system is corrupt in Arizona. The Republican candidate for
Speaker 1: governor is refusing to say whether she'll accept the results
Speaker 1: of the upcoming election if she loses. Will you accept
Speaker 1: the results of your election in November. I'm going to
Speaker 1: win the election, and I will accept that result. If
Speaker 1: you lose, Will you accept that I'm gonna win the election,
Speaker 1: and I will accept that result. I'm gonna win the election,
Speaker 1: and I will accept that results. I'm gonna win the
Speaker 1: election election, and I will accept that results. You realize,
Speaker 1: thanks to Trump, every Republican running for office now is
Speaker 1: just like a winy little kid who refuses to lose
Speaker 1: a board game. All Right. They used to be like,
Speaker 1: we are the Party of Personal Responsibility, and it was like, well,
Speaker 1: it looks like you you lost the election. Do you
Speaker 1: take responsibility for that? It's not my fault. It was stolen.
Speaker 1: I'm your governor. And by the way, by the way,
Speaker 1: it's ridiculous to compare Trump's election lost to o J's murders, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, for one thing, o J had a much
Speaker 1: better legal team, and also that was the system doing
Speaker 1: its thing. But maybe maybe you think carry Lake's election
Speaker 1: denials don't concern you. You know, maybe you're thinking, hey,
Speaker 1: I don't live in Arizona, travel the only issue that
Speaker 1: affects me there is whether they teach stage. But you'd
Speaker 1: be wrong, because you see, Arizona isn't just where your
Speaker 1: aunt gets all her turquoise jewelry. No, it's also a
Speaker 1: key swing states that helped push Joe Biden over the
Speaker 1: top in and if Carrie Lake becomes governor, she could
Speaker 1: have the final say over who wins it. And it
Speaker 1: doesn't sound like she's going to be shy about getting
Speaker 1: the result that she wants. In the last twenty four hours,
Speaker 1: you said election was stolen. Would you have certified Arizona's results? Hell? No?
Speaker 1: Would you be willing to put the country into position
Speaker 1: potentially of a constitutional crisis by not certifying Arizona's results
Speaker 1: if you're a governor that come down? I think? Let
Speaker 1: me ask you, Van, would you certify a crooked, corrupt election?
Speaker 1: Would you certify a crooked corrupt election just to make peace? Yes? No,
Speaker 1: that's not how I operate. You know, things aren't looking
Speaker 1: good when the future of your democracy is being decided
Speaker 1: in the home depot parking lots. But just think about it.
Speaker 1: Think about what carry Lake is saying. She's saying that
Speaker 1: if the election in is stolen for Biden the same
Speaker 1: way the last election was stolen for Biden, then she's
Speaker 1: not going to approve the results, and that would be chaos.
Speaker 1: I could throw America into a constitutional crisis like it's
Speaker 1: never seen before. Who knows, maybe even another civil war.
Speaker 1: Which is bullshit. Think about it. Some local newscasts that
Speaker 1: gets way into too into Trump fan fiction, and now
Speaker 1: I've got to grow out mutton chops. I mean, can
Speaker 1: I pull it off? Yeah, but it's gonna be for
Speaker 1: the right reasons. And I know you might be saying
Speaker 1: all relaxed. Trump tried to do a cool last time
Speaker 1: and it didn't work. Yeah. The only reason it didn't
Speaker 1: work is because they were various Republicans in key positions
Speaker 1: who didn't go along with it. But if those people
Speaker 1: get replaced by people like carry Lake, it's a whole
Speaker 1: different story, because you see, you don't need to storm
Speaker 1: the capitol when your friends have the keys. All right,
Speaker 1: that's it for the headlines. But before we go, let's
Speaker 1: check it on the traffic without very old right with
Speaker 1: Junior everybody. Yea, yeah, I'm looking at it right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm looking at it right now. But like free beer,
Speaker 1: free beer all over the freeway, just at that all ramp.
Speaker 1: Just it's free bear. Yeah, take the truck, get as
Speaker 1: much of it's bud light. But we'll still drinking ship.
Speaker 1: If not, we're flipping. Yeah that we can make a
Speaker 1: lot of money. Hey, let me red, Hey, what's going on? Man?
Speaker 1: Are you a traffic It looks like you're. Yeah, you're
Speaker 1: telling your friends to go and get beer from a
Speaker 1: truck that well, no, to rescue the bear. The beer
Speaker 1: need to be rescued. I was listening to you know,
Speaker 1: I was still listening with your talking about me. You're
Speaker 1: talking about the car and Karen Lake. Yeah no, no, no
Speaker 1: no card carried not Karen. She still got a caring haircut.
Speaker 1: It's still still all right. Let's go into the traffic.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna get to the trapper. Also, the McRib, the mcgrib.
Speaker 1: You said, the mcgrib is gone this there's a last ride.
Speaker 1: Cancel the McRib. I don't, I don't. I don't think
Speaker 1: what did the McRib do did it didn't say something
Speaker 1: about Jewish people or something that I thought the mcgribb.
Speaker 1: The McRib is an ally. The McRib has been an
Speaker 1: ally for years and years. We all know why McDonald's
Speaker 1: canceled the snack rob We know what the snack rap
Speaker 1: said that made perfect No, I don't know what did
Speaker 1: the snack raps. I'm not gonna repeat that on television. Also,
Speaker 1: you can't cancel the McRib. The McRib it's about recycling.
Speaker 1: The McRib is friendly. It's echo, echo echo, it's good
Speaker 1: for the environment. The mcgrib, they were, mcgrib is recycling.
Speaker 1: Did you know every McRib this year it's just an
Speaker 1: unsold mcgrib from last year. That's how they do to
Speaker 1: the grib. Always guess how even when they get riding,
Speaker 1: when the mcgrib, when the mcgrib season and they put
Speaker 1: him in storage in the warehouse in Indiana like Christmas decoration,
Speaker 1: they just put up in the attic. No, I don't
Speaker 1: want to think of that as the mcgrib man. Look,
Speaker 1: I don't know how how what your relationship is with
Speaker 1: seasonal food. But but the mcgrib come around every year,
Speaker 1: and that's joy. That's joy. The mcgrib, the mcgre get
Speaker 1: up with McRib is the mcgrib is that uncle that
Speaker 1: show up once a year and you have a good
Speaker 1: ass time with that uncle. The uncle teach you how
Speaker 1: to fish, you literally sitting this lap behind the wheel
Speaker 1: so you can blow in that tube so it's car
Speaker 1: starting teach you about cocaine. This is a good uncle.
Speaker 1: I can teach you all the rocks. And then he
Speaker 1: just disappears and you miss him. But but you know,
Speaker 1: deep down in your life is probably better off without him.
Speaker 1: You won't do the traffic. If anything, You know what
Speaker 1: McDonald's need to get rid of. They need to get
Speaker 1: rid of all that. Damn that damn shamrocks. That's what
Speaker 1: they need to get rid of. Why are we gonna
Speaker 1: get shape? Damn? Who's it? Looked like some sewage? It
Speaker 1: is sipping on sewage. They're not. They're getting rid of Max.
Speaker 1: I just don't think it's right. Man. If you want
Speaker 1: to get rid of something and get rid of all
Speaker 1: the mother mystery meats, you're talking about the mcgrib, or
Speaker 1: you get rid of the mother mystery meat beyond meat,
Speaker 1: beyond what did it beyond? Oh? It was an impossible burger.
Speaker 1: If it's impossible, then how to eat? How to eat
Speaker 1: the burger? If it's impossible, that's stupid. I don't know
Speaker 1: beyond neat. I don't know where impossible burger come from.
Speaker 1: But I know where did mcgrib come from? The rib.
Speaker 1: I know that half the time the sauce do have
Speaker 1: to work anyway in the McRib, that it could be
Speaker 1: a dish bunge. Hell, I don't know. You want some
Speaker 1: traffic though, right, Yeah, yeah, because it's gone. It's gone now, Roy,
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's let's do the traffic. Look, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: be real with you, bro, I'm not worried about this.
Speaker 1: I'm not worried about that. I'm is Nor'm gonna stay positive.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna stay positive because you know, all the greats
Speaker 1: take a break, then they come back. All the greats
Speaker 1: take a break, they come back. Jay Z took a
Speaker 1: break to time, came back. Jordan took a break for time,
Speaker 1: came back. Jesus left came back. So the mcgrib is
Speaker 1: up there with the greats. The mcgrib better come back.
Speaker 1: In fact, let me just talk to mc I can't
Speaker 1: talk to you. I talk to McDonald's right and McDonald's
Speaker 1: and talked to Ronald. Ronald, how you doing, Ronald? Is me?
Speaker 1: Roy Wood, junior customer the month McDonald's Birmingham and five
Speaker 1: points West. Look, if you dare as an organization to
Speaker 1: certify the cancelation of the McRib, I will not accept
Speaker 1: those results. I'm gonna get a group of people together
Speaker 1: and we're gonna travel and we're gonna march down the
Speaker 1: McDonald's headquarters. We're going to McDonald's the first week in
Speaker 1: January to start to get off with the band. You
Speaker 1: went me on that man, you want to get with
Speaker 1: We're gonna store on the McDonald's office March in January.
Speaker 1: That sounds from that's a familiar road. Don't know this.
Speaker 1: This is a whole brand new plan. We go hang
Speaker 1: Grimmace look and I know he ain't got no lit
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna figure something out. Man, you come in
Speaker 1: with I am not coming. I think we should cut
Speaker 1: this off. Let's just cut this off. What I'm talking
Speaker 1: about the media. As soon as you start talking about something,
Speaker 1: the media shocked mode to take the roll. Just try
Speaker 1: to let up. Just fine, we're gonna take a frick
Speaker 1: breaking out that we're gonna be talking about how AI
Speaker 1: is gonna change off forever. It's not talking about t
Speaker 1: J show. Over over the past few months, you've probably
Speaker 1: seen the Internet has been a buzz with original arts
Speaker 1: or realistic images that are completely generated by AI. So
Speaker 1: now things that only exist in your imagination, like a
Speaker 1: banana hitchhiking on the side of the road, or or
Speaker 1: a Knicks player holding a trophy, you can just type
Speaker 1: it in and a few seconds later there it is. Anyway,
Speaker 1: we wanted to find out more about this technology, which
Speaker 1: is why my first guest is the chief technology officer
Speaker 1: of open Ai, the company behind Dali, to the artificial
Speaker 1: intelligence system that can generate images from text. Please welcome Miramarati, Mirramuratti,
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Daily Show. Thank you for having me. UM.
Speaker 1: So many people have seen the images that Dally creates.
Speaker 1: Many people may even think they understand it. But but
Speaker 1: let's let's get into it. Like, how doesn't AI create
Speaker 1: an image because it's not caught being the image. It's not,
Speaker 1: you know, taking from something else. It is creating an
Speaker 1: image from nothing. How is it doing this? Exactly? It's
Speaker 1: it's an original image never seen before. And UM, you know,
Speaker 1: we have been making images since the beginning of time,
Speaker 1: and we simply took a great deal of these images
Speaker 1: and we fed them into this AI system. UM, and
Speaker 1: it learned this relationship between the description of the image
Speaker 1: and the image itself. UM. It learned these patterns and
Speaker 1: eventually it was generating images that were original. They were
Speaker 1: not copies of what it had seen before. UM. And basically,
Speaker 1: the way that it learns the magic is just understanding
Speaker 1: the patterns and analyzing the patterns between a lot of information,
Speaker 1: a lot of training data that we have fed into
Speaker 1: this system. There are people who are terrified about this.
Speaker 1: I mean, for instance, there was an art competition and
Speaker 1: the winner in the art competition you a version of
Speaker 1: this kind of software. Whether it was Dally or not,
Speaker 1: I don't remember, but they used a version of this
Speaker 1: kind of software to create an art piece that won
Speaker 1: the competition. Artists were lived, you know, they were like, well,
Speaker 1: this is not art. It was created but and not
Speaker 1: to said no, the same way you use a brush,
Speaker 1: I use a computer and that's how I designed this
Speaker 1: in in creating AI, are you constantly grappling with how
Speaker 1: it will affect people's jobs and what people even consider
Speaker 1: a job. Yeah, that's that's a great question. It's um.
Speaker 1: You know, the technology that we're building has such a
Speaker 1: huge effect on society, but also the society can and
Speaker 1: should shape it. And there are a ton of questions
Speaker 1: that we're wrestling with every day. Um. With with the
Speaker 1: technologies that we have today, like GPD three and DALLY. UM,
Speaker 1: we see them as tool, so an extension of our
Speaker 1: creativity or our writing abilities. It's a tool and you
Speaker 1: know there isn't anything particularly new about having human helper um.
Speaker 1: You know, even the ancient Greeks had this concept of
Speaker 1: human helpers. You know that when you give something, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, infinite powers of knowledge or strength or someone, Um,
Speaker 1: maybe you had to be wary of the vulnerabilities. And
Speaker 1: so these concepts of extending the human abilities and also
Speaker 1: being aware of the vulnerabilities are timeless and um in
Speaker 1: a sense, we're continuing this conversation by building AI technologist today. Um.
Speaker 1: Well it might it might be frightening because some people go, oh,
Speaker 1: the world is going to end because of this technology,
Speaker 1: But in the meantime it's very fun. I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 1: Um No, it's because because it's like you know, Daly
Speaker 1: for instance, doesn't just create an image from text. You know,
Speaker 1: you you've you've also gotten to the point now where
Speaker 1: as a company, you've designed it so that it can
Speaker 1: imagine what an image would be. So for instance, there's
Speaker 1: that there's that famous image. You know, it's it's the
Speaker 1: girl with the pearl earring, and it's a it's a
Speaker 1: famous image, right. But what Dally can do is you've
Speaker 1: got the famous image and then Dally can expand that
Speaker 1: that's all of the use everything you've seen, they never existed.
Speaker 1: So day is like, well, this is what I think
Speaker 1: it would look like if there was more to this image.
Speaker 1: It can it can assume, it can create, it can
Speaker 1: it can inspire? Yeah, it can inspire, and it makes
Speaker 1: this beautiful, sometimes touching, sometimes funny images, and it's really
Speaker 1: just an extension of your imagination. There isn't even a
Speaker 1: chemist or the boundaries of paper are not there anymore.
Speaker 1: How do you safeguard then? You know, someone might look
Speaker 1: at this technology and go, well, then you know, you
Speaker 1: could type in a politician was caught doing something here,
Speaker 1: and now I've got the image. You know, you you've
Speaker 1: got and now all the politicians that's not that's not me.
Speaker 1: It was made by that fake program. We we can
Speaker 1: very quickly find ourselves in a world where nothing is
Speaker 1: real and everything that's real isn't and we question it.
Speaker 1: How do you prevent or can you even prevent that completely? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You know its information and societal impact of our technologies.
Speaker 1: These are very important and difficult questions, and um, I
Speaker 1: think it's very important to be able to bring the
Speaker 1: public along, bring these technologies in the public consciousness. But
Speaker 1: in a way that's responsible and safe, and that's why
Speaker 1: we have chosen to make dally available, but with certain
Speaker 1: guard rails and with certain constraints, because we do want
Speaker 1: people to understand what AI is capable of, and we
Speaker 1: want people in various fields to think about what it means. UM.
Speaker 1: But right now, you know, we don't feel very comfortable
Speaker 1: around the mitigations um on on misinformation, and so we
Speaker 1: do have some guard rails. For example, we do not
Speaker 1: allow generation of public figures. So we will go in
Speaker 1: the data set and we will eliminate if you type
Speaker 1: something in you can't pull up, it can't create a
Speaker 1: politician for you. It won't be a picture of that person.
Speaker 1: So so that's that's the first step at the training
Speaker 1: of the model itself, just looking at the data and
Speaker 1: auditing it, making interventions in the data sets to avoid
Speaker 1: certain outcomes. And then later in the deployment stage, we
Speaker 1: will look at filters, applying filters so that when you
Speaker 1: put in a prompt it won't generate things that contain
Speaker 1: violence or hate um and make it more in line
Speaker 1: with our content policy. Wow, so so let me ask
Speaker 1: you this. Then you don't obviously part of your team
Speaker 1: has to think about the ethical ramifications of the technology
Speaker 1: that you're creating. Do your team also then think about
Speaker 1: the greater meaning of of work or life or the
Speaker 1: purpose that humans have because you know, most of us
Speaker 1: define ourselves by what we do, i e. Our jobs.
Speaker 1: As AI slowly takes away what people's jobs are, will
Speaker 1: find the growing class of people who don't have that
Speaker 1: same purpose anymore. Do you then also have to think
Speaker 1: about that and wonder like, what does it mean to
Speaker 1: be human if it's not my job? And can you
Speaker 1: tell me what that is? You know, we we have
Speaker 1: philosophers and ethicist that open Aye, And but I really
Speaker 1: think these are big societal questions that UM, you know,
Speaker 1: shouldn't even be in the hands of technologists alone. We're
Speaker 1: certainly thinking about them. And uh, I, you know, the
Speaker 1: tools that we see today, they're not the tools that
Speaker 1: are automating certain aspects of our jobs. That really UM
Speaker 1: tools extending our capabilities are inherent abilities and making them
Speaker 1: far better. UM. But it could be that in for
Speaker 1: our future, you know, we have these systems that UM
Speaker 1: can automate a lot of a lot of different jobs.
Speaker 1: I do think that, as with other revolutions, that we've
Speaker 1: we've we've gone through. There will be new jobs and
Speaker 1: some jobs will be low. Some jobs will will will
Speaker 1: be new, and there will be some retraining required as well.
Speaker 1: But I'm optimistic. It's it's it's interesting. It's scary because
Speaker 1: change always is. But you know, as as long as
Speaker 1: we have blessed you, as long as we have UM,
Speaker 1: as long as we have Koala's writing bicycles, I think UM,
Speaker 1: I think we had in the right direction. Thank you
Speaker 1: so much for joining me on the show. I appreciate

Speaker 1: Kid himself. How are you, I'm right, Welcome to the
Speaker 1: Dinner Show. Thank you, thanks for having me. Great to
Speaker 1: see everyone here. You are you are somebody who has
Speaker 1: defined a generation. You are somebody who now is in
Speaker 1: the next phase of defining a new generation on streaming
Speaker 1: on Netflix. Your face became synonymous with a move. You've
Speaker 1: got that on the book, and you wrote a story
Speaker 1: that I'm gonna tell you is one of the more
Speaker 1: honest accounts of anybody's life. I would love to know
Speaker 1: why you chose to go into the depth that you
Speaker 1: went into, because you could have you could have kept
Speaker 1: it safe, but you you tell everything. You know, it's
Speaker 1: very specific. I walked in the shoes of this character
Speaker 1: that that has been so impactful and so inspirational, aspirational.
Speaker 1: UM wish for filling for decades. Um. You know, I
Speaker 1: was the lucky guy that got the part, but I
Speaker 1: so I wanted to be honest about what that journey
Speaker 1: has been. UM. It's never gone away for me. It's
Speaker 1: always been a part of me. UM. The fans give
Speaker 1: so much back. UM for the thirty eight years. Yes,
Speaker 1: I said it out loud, but UM, but there's such
Speaker 1: a it's such a two way street of inspiration and
Speaker 1: now at the Cobra Kai show exploding the way it
Speaker 1: has and and opening up for the next generation. I
Speaker 1: mean I have twelve year old kids that know who
Speaker 1: Mr Miyaki is, right, you know, you think of this
Speaker 1: this legendaractor, and you go, he was always Mr mia
Speaker 1: And yet you talk about how when Pat came in
Speaker 1: for the audition, everyone before he auditioned, everyone was like,
Speaker 1: I don't know if this guy will well, they didn't
Speaker 1: want him for some of the studio and the producer
Speaker 1: and want him for the role because they were looking
Speaker 1: more like to Shire Ramafune, some of these Kira Kawasawa,
Speaker 1: the seventh Samurai writers and and um and so Pat
Speaker 1: was and he was Arnold from Happy Days for me
Speaker 1: as well. I was part of my was Tuesday Nights.
Speaker 1: I mean Arnold, you know, so I was. You know,
Speaker 1: we all kind of questioned the depth and breadth of
Speaker 1: of his his chops he came in there. We I
Speaker 1: can only explain it as soulful magic, which is what
Speaker 1: I titled his chapter. And it was instantaneous. It was
Speaker 1: a give and take, um a great deal and goes
Speaker 1: to the writing, but it was elevated by the two guys.
Speaker 1: They were meant to play those parts. And that's what
Speaker 1: I love about how you told the stories that I
Speaker 1: can't imagine another one. I can't imagine Mr Miyagi being
Speaker 1: like this buff. What made him so special was he
Speaker 1: he was surprised a human Yoda exactly. That's exactly what
Speaker 1: it is, exactly a form you. You're also really vulnerable
Speaker 1: in the book, which which I appreci sheet because, as
Speaker 1: you said, many people looked at your life and went, man,
Speaker 1: this guy is lucky. And in many ways you were.
Speaker 1: You were the karate Kid. It was a massive blockbuster.
Speaker 1: It was all over the world. And then because of that,
Speaker 1: your career was essentially done. You talk about how you
Speaker 1: couldn't get another job because people said, well, you're the
Speaker 1: karate kid, you can't be anybody else. It started to
Speaker 1: had I had two things working for and against me. One,
Speaker 1: I was associated with a role that was, you know,
Speaker 1: famous for being an iconic character right away. And two
Speaker 1: I decided to age very slowly. Thank you very much,
Speaker 1: Thank you for than before you actually do so, so
Speaker 1: now I wasn't able to graduate sort of out of
Speaker 1: it and um, and then I had missed opportunities because
Speaker 1: I was locked into a three picture contract. So that
Speaker 1: made it when there were certain other projects I wanted
Speaker 1: to to to be involved with I couldn't you know what.
Speaker 1: The thing that I've been able to do is, and
Speaker 1: I write to this in the book, I've always kept
Speaker 1: one foot in and one foot out of it, and
Speaker 1: therein lies for me the balance. There you go, that's
Speaker 1: a nagasm, but it is. There are lessons in life
Speaker 1: from that film that that I use in my own
Speaker 1: life and and share with people. So it's with readers.
Speaker 1: It's about how to navigate through that and keep it,
Speaker 1: keep your focus, and uh and so and stuff came
Speaker 1: back around. Always through those dry times, I kept myself creative.
Speaker 1: I jumped back to writing screenplays, shooting films, doing guest
Speaker 1: spots here and there. And then somehow the universe has
Speaker 1: me on Netflix on a big TV show, to be
Speaker 1: successful TV show, people loving you, a whole, new generations
Speaker 1: loving you, and and and can I just say, if
Speaker 1: I don't know who's working in in like ad agencies
Speaker 1: for like anti aging queens and all these other if
Speaker 1: they do not design a line around you and they
Speaker 1: call it wax on, wax off, they're wasting their Money's
Speaker 1: you were the face of it. Congratulations on everything you,
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you for everything we did. Fall about
Speaker 1: what's on. It's available now. It's a fascinating but right again.
