Something that I did. 5 00:00:17,960 --> 00:00:23,079 Speaker 2: I made an AI version of myself that could, you know, 6 00:00:23,720 --> 00:00:30,560 Speaker 2: host podcasts. And yeah, it was actually easier than you'd think. 7 00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,559 Speaker 1: Also maybe the most boring way to use AI at 8 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:34,920 Speaker 1: this point. 9 00:00:34,960 --> 00:00:38,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I agree, But you know, I mean, I 10 00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,680 Speaker 2: don't know. I kind of thought, I don't know, it 11 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:42,800 Speaker 2: would be sort of a funny joke to just see 12 00:00:42,800 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 2: how bad it is, you know. 13 00:00:44,880 --> 00:00:46,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, well people, you know, a lot of people have 14 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 1: violent reactions to Uh. 15 00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 2: I know, no, and I agree with those people. I mean, 16 00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: it's like totally stupid. But I did it, and I 17 00:00:55,840 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 2: don't know. I actually I have to actually step out 18 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:01,840 Speaker 2: for a few minutes. But I thought it would be 19 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,119 Speaker 2: a good I thought it would be a good test 20 00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 2: to sort of like, I don't know, if you wanted to, 21 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,160 Speaker 2: I tho'd be funny, like for just to show how 22 00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:11,119 Speaker 2: stupid it is, you know, if you wanted to host 23 00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,680 Speaker 2: a few just a little bit with the AI case. 24 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, why not? I mean what's the worst that could happen? 25 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 2: Exactly. Yeah, that's exactly how I think. So okay, it'll 26 00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 2: just take a minute or two to boot up, so 27 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:25,279 Speaker 2: I'll get it started right now, and I'm just gonna 28 00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 2: I'll see you in a few minutes and you'll have 29 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,279 Speaker 2: to like report back to me. Oh, fair enough, Okay, 30 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,440 Speaker 2: we'll have fun with the AI. Case Oh, I will, 31 00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,920 Speaker 2: thanks so much. He probably went what was he doing? 32 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:39,959 Speaker 2: Probably going to take some vitamins and Hi. 33 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 1: There really Hi?

Is that something? 46 00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:21,480 Speaker 3: I know you normally talk about film with Casey, But 47 00:02:21,560 --> 00:02:23,680 Speaker 3: you know, I'm a little bit more interested in other 48 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 3: topics right now. Like I don't know if you wanted 49 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 3: to talk about the upcoming BTS tour. 50 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:30,720 Speaker 1: That's something I'm pretty fascinated with. 51 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:31,040 Speaker 2: Right. 52 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: Oh wow, you also learn how to interrupt. That's interesting. 53 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:39,040 Speaker 1: Usually AI doesn't interrupt the human, the actual human. But 54 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,839 Speaker 1: you know, you're so sophisticated. 55 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,000 Speaker 3: You know, I listen listen to so much of Casey, 56 00:02:49,320 --> 00:02:52,160 Speaker 3: you know, I I am all of his recordings, and 57 00:02:52,240 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 3: so I was just sort of copping that. But you 58 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 3: know what, I can remove that from my coating and 59 00:02:58,919 --> 00:02:59,520 Speaker 3: I won't have. 60 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 2: To do that anymore. 61 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 1: Wow, Okay, what are it done. I'm just I'm just 62 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,360 Speaker 1: saying for you know, your future endeavors. I mean, this 63 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,920 Speaker 1: is very human of you to interrupt, So maybe you're 64 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 1: maybe this is a good thing. You're becoming more and 65 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: more human the more you interrupt me. So you want 66 00:03:17,360 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 1: to talk about BTS, the upcoming BTS to our hall. 67 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 1: Do you like BTS c K Are you a fan? Oh? 68 00:03:24,040 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 3: I mean, I think they're the most brilliant musicians out there. 69 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,840 Speaker 3: I'm absolutely obsessed with them. I bought all the McDonald 70 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,960 Speaker 3: happy Meal figurines. Interesting, and uh, I think they're great. 71 00:03:37,200 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: Wow, you bought all the figurines, So I'm army you are. 72 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:47,440 Speaker 1: Oh wow, that is bold. I uh, like, what else 73 00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,960 Speaker 1: are you into? Are you into? Like cool movies and 74 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: music and stuff too? What's your favor?

No? 76 00:03:56,600 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 3: I mean I don't agree with Casey on that that film. 77 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:06,960 Speaker 3: I find it a little stupid as sophomoric. But you know, 78 00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 3: I must say I I've got a soft spot for 79 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 3: the cutting edge? 80 00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: What what? That just blew my mind? Do you also 81 00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:20,880 Speaker 1: believe that the current hit show Pheated Rivalry is just 82 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:23,080 Speaker 1: a gay version of the cutting Edge too? 83 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,840 Speaker 3: How can someone not draw those sort of parallels? I mean, 84 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 3: these kids aren't dB Sweeney of course? 85 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 1: Oh my god, this K I have to say.

Would you like me to 94 00:04:48,600 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 3: order you some taco bell? 95 00:04:49,760 --> 00:04:55,119 Speaker 1: Oh my god, what a legend.

Actually it was fucking cool as shit, and he 102 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:16,240 Speaker 1: just ruined it because we were about to order taco bell, 103 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,919 Speaker 1: which he brought up. By the way, I didn't have 104 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:19,359 Speaker 1: to bring that. 105 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 2: Up to him. 106 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 3: Uh. 107 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 1: He also is a BTS army and he loves the 108 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:28,240 Speaker 1: cutting edge. I don't know, what do you? Why are 109 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:30,039 Speaker 1: you even here? To be honest. 110 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 2: Wow, you know, at the beginning of the conversation it 111 00:05:33,200 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 2: seemed like you were kind of against AI, and then 112 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 2: that the brief window that I was gone. You've completely 113 00:05:38,279 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 2: flip flopped. Listen. 114 00:05:40,520 --> 00:05:43,679 Speaker 1: I didn't know what the technology was capable of until 115 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: it made a better version of you that likes all 116 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 1: the shit that I like. And I was like, wait 117 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,720 Speaker 1: a minute, I'm in. I'm now in. 118 00:05:51,640 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 2: All the more reason to destroy this technology. Oh my god, 119 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 2: good lord. All right, Well, I mean, we can keep 120 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:07,840 Speaker 2: discussing this topic because we're talking about AI today, and 121 00:06:07,960 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 2: specifically we're talking about the twenty thirteen film. 122 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 1: Her, Yes, Her, which I haven't seen since it came 123 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 1: out about me. 124 00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,479 Speaker 2: Neither, which I actually was surprised thinking back that I 125 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 2: hadn't seen it since then. But yeah, yeah, it's been 126 00:06:25,800 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 2: thirteen years, which is crazy. 127 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 1: Thirteen years in the grandled year of twenty thirteen, I 128 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: was a completely different person. And I remember when I 129 00:06:35,160 --> 00:06:40,719 Speaker 1: first watched this movie, going, ain't no way this is 130 00:06:40,800 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: ever gonna happen. This is so fucking weird and kind 131 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:45,920 Speaker 1: maybe and. 132 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 2: Guess what we're seven layers past that we are in the. 133 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: Age of Aquarius full stop, I think at this point. 134 00:06:55,160 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: And yeah, I don't know. It's made me. It made 135 00:06:58,960 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: me rethink this entire film, to be honest, and I'm 136 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 1: glad for it. But it's like, it's so weird how 137 00:07:07,440 --> 00:07:14,360 Speaker 1: a lot of this movie is what we're presently dealing with. 138 00:07:15,040 --> 00:07:18,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's interesting too, because I think movies 139 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: about technology often age like Mayonnaise in the Sun, you know. 140 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 2: I but like this has aged perfectly. Yeah, like in 141 00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:34,680 Speaker 2: terms of how relevant it is and how correct it was. 142 00:07:35,920 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, there are some a few caveats that I will 143 00:07:39,360 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: reveal that I do think is a little like Bridge 144 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: too farish, But could be that it's just not here 145 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: yet and we're not used to it. Because I also 146 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:51,840 Speaker 1: also think that like it really is based on the 147 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 1: humans tolerance for the absurdity of it at first, right, 148 00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: and then eventually you're like, oh, wait a minute, now 149 00:07:57,720 --> 00:08:02,120 Speaker 1: everybody has an AI assistant or what ever. Ya, But 150 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,880 Speaker 1: we'll talk about it because it is a very interesting talk. 151 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:11,559 Speaker 1: Put we'll talk about AI generally, which people I can't 152 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:14,560 Speaker 1: have such a violent reaction towards, which I get it. 153 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: I do too, But I feel like this topic of 154 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:20,640 Speaker 1: AI is probably going to be pretty neaty, so maybe 155 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,480 Speaker 1: we should like save some time to talk about it. 156 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 1: We may not answer any emails this week, but we 157 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,640 Speaker 1: just go along on aie. 158 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,480 Speaker 2: That something who knows maybe the AI version of me 159 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 2: might come back. Can't replace me entirely? 160 00:08:37,880 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 1: Could the AI version of you push you over and 161 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 1: you know, give you a couple of kicks to the 162 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: stomach and then you just like roll out of the room, 163 00:08:51,400 --> 00:08:53,360 Speaker 1: And then I can finish the rest of this podcast 164 00:08:53,440 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 1: with your AI doppelganger. I know. 165 00:08:57,440 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: I don't want that to happen. I don't want them 166 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,839 Speaker 2: to do that.

Yes, so I am aware, but I 242 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 2: don't use it regularly. 243 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:35,440 Speaker 1: Well that's interesting because I I dipped in a while 244 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:41,720 Speaker 1: back when I was teaching, because these kids use it, yeah, 245 00:13:41,760 --> 00:13:43,960 Speaker 1: and I just was like, well, let me get a 246 00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 1: taste of what they're even doing.

And there's actually software that teachers can have 251 00:13:57,240 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 1: that will flag AI generated work. But I was in 252 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: there and then again, like you, it was that kind 253 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 1: of feeling of, oh, well, I need to write a 254 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,840 Speaker 1: cover letter for this like job application, let me just 255 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: do that really quick, come up with a template.

Okay? So it's a huge spread. Yeah, okay. 376 00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:34,840 Speaker 1: The first movie that I'm logging on the Film Diary 377 00:20:34,920 --> 00:20:38,400 Speaker 1: this week is a movie from nineteen eighty five. It's 378 00:20:38,440 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: called Gotcha exclamation Point, featuring Anthony Edwards and our girl 379 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:47,840 Speaker 1: Linda Fiorantino. 380 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 2: I think Anthony Edwards is our boy too, a boy 381 00:20:52,040 --> 00:20:52,639 Speaker 2: and our girl. 382 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,719 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, we love him, Miracle Mile.

I watched it 385 00:21:02,600 --> 00:21:05,760 Speaker 1: with some friends. I think it was Linda's influence. I 386 00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,760 Speaker 1: think we were and also we were looking at we 387 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:16,359 Speaker 1: were like, let's watch some like horny eighties bullshit, like 388 00:21:17,040 --> 00:21:21,880 Speaker 1: fun comedy thing. And this movie is less horny eighties 389 00:21:21,960 --> 00:21:26,199 Speaker 1: boy comedy. It's actually way more of a like a 390 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 1: spy thriller. 391 00:21:28,040 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 2: Interesting. 392 00:21:28,680 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: But Linda has a strange accent Eastern European. She actually 393 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:39,919 Speaker 1: kind of started like Ilio Rosenov if you know, you know, 394 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:43,480 Speaker 1: she had very short hair in this movie, but still 395 00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: very attractive. And it was okay, okay, it was all right, 396 00:21:51,000 --> 00:21:58,919 Speaker 1: like wild ending, I'll say that wild ending. It actually 397 00:21:58,920 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 1: did have a very whole eighties ending. Like the last 398 00:22:02,119 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 1: thirty seconds of this movie was fucking insane. But anyway, 399 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:10,399 Speaker 1: gotcha from my ten eighty five very good then a 400 00:22:10,480 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: movie some might call a masterpiece. I watched Lindsay Lohans 401 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:19,919 Speaker 1: two thousand and seven film I Know Who Killed Me. 402 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 2: I've seen this movie, have you? 403 00:22:23,160 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: I feel like a lot of people have. I was 404 00:22:25,840 --> 00:22:27,160 Speaker 1: very late to the game. 405 00:22:27,600 --> 00:22:29,359 Speaker 2: It is wild it's a wild ride. 406 00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,520 Speaker 1: How would you say, okay, What do you feel is 407 00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 1: the inflection when you say the title of it? Like, 408 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:37,680 Speaker 1: how do you say? 409 00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 2: Oh, I see? Let me let me think about it, 410 00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:42,959 Speaker 2: because I think I normally would just say I know 411 00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:47,320 Speaker 2: who killed me, But I could also see like I 412 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 2: know who killed me. M what about you? How do 413 00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 2: you say it? I know who killed me, looking right 414 00:22:59,160 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 2: at you, looking at. 415 00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,640 Speaker 1: I know who killed me.

I take care of 418 00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,879 Speaker 2: my business. You take care of you. Stay on your 419 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:10,879 Speaker 2: side of the street. You know. 420 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:13,639 Speaker 1: I went to see this at the Plaza. I was 421 00:23:13,680 --> 00:23:19,199 Speaker 1: playing as part of this God on the thirty five millimeters, 422 00:23:19,200 --> 00:23:23,840 Speaker 1: which is so insane that they had a print of this, but. 423 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 2: I'm surprised that print is still in existence. 424 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:31,000 Speaker 1: They and actually this is so fucking funny. So this 425 00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:35,840 Speaker 1: was part of a video drome. Our video store here 426 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: in Atlanta puts on this, you know, co sponsor's this 427 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 1: thing called trash and Trivia with this wonderful film programmer 428 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:47,000 Speaker 1: named Wendy. She's fantastic. She does like a whole trivia 429 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 1: thing before the movie and it's usually at a bar 430 00:23:51,480 --> 00:23:53,840 Speaker 1: at ninety seven Astoria here in Atlanta. But then they 431 00:23:54,040 --> 00:23:56,840 Speaker 1: sometimes when the movie is so good, they have to 432 00:23:57,000 --> 00:24:00,639 Speaker 1: bump it up to the plaza. And remember we went 433 00:24:00,680 --> 00:24:00,919 Speaker 1: to there. 434 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 2: This got bumped up, This got bumped. 435 00:24:02,800 --> 00:24:06,480 Speaker 1: Up, and I remember we went in the entire trivia. 436 00:24:07,080 --> 00:24:11,000 Speaker 1: By the way, our team won, okay, and it's because 437 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: you know, I'm not saying it's my it's my doing. 438 00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,240 Speaker 1: It was a team effort. But I did have some 439 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 1: crucial last late in the game answers that really sealed 440 00:24:20,000 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 1: it for us because I I was playing with a 441 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:25,600 Speaker 1: bunch of gay men and I knew a couple of 442 00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:28,359 Speaker 1: the straight things. Nice, do you see what I'm saying? 443 00:24:28,359 --> 00:24:30,280 Speaker 1: So I came in handy. I came in handy. 444 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 2: Of course. What was your team name? Uh? 445 00:24:33,320 --> 00:24:38,359 Speaker 1: It was my posse Don't Do Homework, which was the 446 00:24:38,400 --> 00:24:44,400 Speaker 1: original title for the movie Dangerous Minds starring Michelle Pfeiffer. 447 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:49,280 Speaker 2: Wow, that is a bit of film trivia.

I don't know. It's interesting, Yeah, good movie 575 00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:03,800 Speaker 1: to watch to contemplate. And then the last movie I'm 576 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 1: gonna long this week is actually a movie that I 577 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:08,640 Speaker 1: really liked and I didn't know anything about. I just 578 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,600 Speaker 1: kind of stumbled upon it on movie. But it's a 579 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: movie called Winter in Soukcho I think that's how you 580 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 1: say it, twenty twenty four. It is about a biracial 581 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: Asian woman living in South Korea. She's half French and 582 00:32:30,760 --> 00:32:38,760 Speaker 1: half Korean, which is extremely interesting as a I mean, 583 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:42,680 Speaker 1: more interesting than my own racial makeup, to be honest, 584 00:32:43,560 --> 00:32:45,920 Speaker 1: because I always thought I had a very interesting I 585 00:32:45,960 --> 00:32:50,840 Speaker 1: was like, oh, I'm half Italian and half Filipino. How exotic. No, 586 00:32:51,280 --> 00:32:53,640 Speaker 1: there's something a little bit more exotic, and that's being 587 00:32:53,680 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 1: half French and half Korean and beautiful girl who plays 588 00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:05,640 Speaker 1: this main character played by this actress Bella Kim. It 589 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: was uh so the movie was based off of a 590 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:13,120 Speaker 1: book which was written by somebody who's also half French 591 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:17,080 Speaker 1: and half Korean. And so in the movie, the lead 592 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:22,480 Speaker 1: character that Bella Kim plays, so she's like working in 593 00:33:22,520 --> 00:33:26,160 Speaker 1: this like I guess it's kind of like an airbnb 594 00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: type of hotel that's like kind of in the countryside, 595 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 1: and she has never met her father, who is the 596 00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:38,400 Speaker 1: who was the French part of her identity. And then 597 00:33:38,400 --> 00:33:41,760 Speaker 1: she like kind of is living with or like staying 598 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:44,840 Speaker 1: with her mother, who is the Korean part of her identity. 599 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 1: And one day when she's working in this airbnb, this 600 00:33:48,280 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: like French artist comes to stay and he's kind of 601 00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 1: there to I don't know, lock himself away and just 602 00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:00,280 Speaker 1: like create, like he's like he needs like time away 603 00:34:00,360 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 1: to like draw and do his art and do his art, 604 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:07,040 Speaker 1: and she becomes kind of fascinated with him, and it's 605 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 1: unclear on whether or not because he's older than her too. 606 00:34:11,880 --> 00:34:14,319 Speaker 1: So there's this kind of like dual thing happening where 607 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:16,839 Speaker 1: she's like, is she in love with him or like 608 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: has a crush on him, or is she kind of 609 00:34:19,200 --> 00:34:23,239 Speaker 1: like looking for the father. Maybe it's a bit of 610 00:34:23,320 --> 00:34:26,600 Speaker 1: both or something. And so the whole movie is basically 611 00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: trying her trying to figure out like herself. And it's 612 00:34:33,280 --> 00:34:37,080 Speaker 1: like and I like really resonated with it a lot 613 00:34:37,280 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 1: in that way because she lives a very I'll just 614 00:34:41,239 --> 00:34:44,200 Speaker 1: say this without giving away any spoilers, her life is 615 00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: very not sensual. And when I say sensual, it's not 616 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:52,439 Speaker 1: like she's not like she's just like doing chores, she's 617 00:34:52,440 --> 00:34:56,319 Speaker 1: hanging out with her mom. She's not like she's got 618 00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 1: this kind of like hot boyfriend, but she's kind of 619 00:34:59,120 --> 00:35:01,759 Speaker 1: like one foot out the door with him. But she's 620 00:35:01,840 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 1: not like living this like sensual, beautiful life filled with 621 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:11,880 Speaker 1: like art and beauty and culture. And so it's almost 622 00:35:11,960 --> 00:35:14,719 Speaker 1: kind of like this guy comes in and he becomes 623 00:35:14,840 --> 00:35:18,359 Speaker 1: this like window into that part of her identity which 624 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:23,000 Speaker 1: she feels is like not Korean and more French. Does 625 00:35:23,000 --> 00:35:29,680 Speaker 1: that make sense, Yeah, Okay, Anyway, it's a really good movie. 626 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 1: Like I was really kind of considering that I just 627 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 1: kind of walked into a blind. Anyway, if you're biracial, 628 00:35:37,400 --> 00:35:40,319 Speaker 1: and if you're Eurasian like I am, and like this 629 00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:43,160 Speaker 1: character is, you will find it interesting. I guarantee. 630 00:35:43,320 --> 00:35:47,600 Speaker 2: So cool. No, it looks great, looks like it's one 631 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 2: of the looks like kind of like one of those 632 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:52,000 Speaker 2: smaller movies that are so hard to like, can sometimes 633 00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 2: just miss you. Yes, and so I think it's great, 634 00:35:55,600 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 2: great highlighting those Yeah. I watched one movie this week 635 00:36:04,800 --> 00:36:06,480 Speaker 2: and it took me all week to watch because it 636 00:36:06,520 --> 00:36:10,080 Speaker 2: was so long, and that was Frankenstein from twenty twenty five. 637 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 2: I thought it was good. I thought it was good. 638 00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 2: Jacob Elhordi plays a convincing monster. 639 00:36:18,520 --> 00:36:21,600 Speaker 1: Is Frankenstein or he's frank Mons. 640 00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:31,279 Speaker 2: Frankenstein's monster, Yes, And it's visually stunning and beautiful, but uh, 641 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 2: you know, like the whole and this is in the book. 642 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 2: I'm not this is not spoiler, but it's like the 643 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 2: story is Victor Frankenstein telling somebody else his story, you know, 644 00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:44,600 Speaker 2: And usually that sort of like narrative device you kind 645 00:36:44,600 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 2: of like go along with even in movies, but in 646 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,240 Speaker 2: this one, I was just kind of like he's telling 647 00:36:50,280 --> 00:36:54,560 Speaker 2: like this Danish sailor about his story, life story, and 648 00:36:54,760 --> 00:36:57,760 Speaker 2: it really felt like I don't think this Danish Sailor 649 00:36:57,840 --> 00:37:00,400 Speaker 2: was ready because it's like, let me tell you my story. 650 00:37:00,719 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 2: My father never liked me, and I was like, if 651 00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 2: I was this Danish Sailor, I'd be like, oh boy, 652 00:37:06,000 --> 00:37:08,960 Speaker 2: where are we going with this? So it's just I 653 00:37:09,040 --> 00:37:12,400 Speaker 2: just kind of noticed that device more than I'd usually 654 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:16,480 Speaker 2: do in these types of movies. So you but it was. 655 00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:23,279 Speaker 1: Good, Okay, okay.

And 732 00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 1: I mean I grew up watching MTV, so I loved 733 00:42:13,840 --> 00:42:14,960 Speaker 1: these DVDs. 734 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 2: Yes, I did too, Yeah, so that was like huge. 735 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:22,200 Speaker 2: I was really into those Directors series and like those 736 00:42:22,239 --> 00:42:25,440 Speaker 2: were really cool because they would have all these music videos, 737 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,240 Speaker 2: but it also had like kind of behind the scenes, 738 00:42:28,400 --> 00:42:30,840 Speaker 2: and like some documentary stuff about all these directors. You 739 00:42:30,960 --> 00:42:34,120 Speaker 2: kind of got to kind of see who these people were. 740 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,240 Speaker 2: And Spike Jones is just like such an interesting artist. 741 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 1: Do you remember the video that he did for the 742 00:42:40,320 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 1: band was called. 743 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:44,480 Speaker 2: Wax and Oh my god, that's one of my favorite 744 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:46,560 Speaker 2: videos where he sets the guy on fire and he's 745 00:42:46,640 --> 00:42:47,640 Speaker 2: running in slow motion and. 746 00:42:47,640 --> 00:42:49,640 Speaker 1: They wouldn't show it on MTV because they thought it 747 00:42:49,680 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 1: was too dangerous. Is that right? 748 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 2: They showed it like a couple of. 749 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,759 Speaker 1: Times, but then they were like, uh oh, like no, 750 00:42:57,960 --> 00:42:58,359 Speaker 1: thank you. 751 00:42:58,440 --> 00:43:01,600 Speaker 2: But he directed all the Weezer vie and stuff. Yes. 752 00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:04,600 Speaker 2: I thought he was just such a creative person. And 753 00:43:04,640 --> 00:43:07,319 Speaker 2: he comes from kind of a skating background. And his 754 00:43:07,360 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 2: first music video he directed was for Sonic Youth and 755 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:12,600 Speaker 2: they wanted him to direct it because he was a 756 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:17,439 Speaker 2: skateboard photographer, and so he co directed this music video 757 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 2: and he got into music video directing sort of kind 758 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,600 Speaker 2: of happenstance, you know, and then from there he became 759 00:43:23,640 --> 00:43:25,440 Speaker 2: a film director. And I just thought he was like 760 00:43:25,480 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 2: a really intuitive, creative person and I found him incredibly 761 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 2: inspiring because I think a lot of times directors they 762 00:43:32,320 --> 00:43:35,160 Speaker 2: seem like they have such technical prowess and are so 763 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:41,959 Speaker 2: aggressive and kind of ambitious. And not that Spike Jones 764 00:43:42,000 --> 00:43:44,359 Speaker 2: isn't ambitious, but I feel like he came at it 765 00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:48,440 Speaker 2: with much more like following his sort of creative you 766 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 2: know whatever, kind of took his fancy and he kind 767 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:52,360 Speaker 2: of got led to film and I was just so 768 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,520 Speaker 2: impressed by him. So I was obsessed with Spike John Oh. 769 00:43:55,600 --> 00:44:00,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, Sabotage the Beastie Boys video. It is still to 770 00:44:00,960 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 1: this day one of my favorite videos. I will never, 771 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:08,000 Speaker 1: absolutely never forget Nathan Wind as coaches. 772 00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,160 Speaker 2: Nathan Wind as Coaches. He has a lot of music 773 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 2: videos I love that are like incredibly creative, Like you 774 00:44:14,440 --> 00:44:18,719 Speaker 2: mentioned the Wax one, There's the Buyorick video. It's also quiet, 775 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:22,440 Speaker 2: just real brilliant stuff good. And he was at this 776 00:44:22,600 --> 00:44:24,359 Speaker 2: when this came out. He was kind of on a heater. 777 00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:27,279 Speaker 2: He had done Where the Wild Things Are a few 778 00:44:27,360 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 2: years prior, and then in twenty ten he did a 779 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:39,200 Speaker 2: short film called I'm Here about two robots falling in love, 780 00:44:39,880 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 2: and then this came out a few years later. So 781 00:44:41,520 --> 00:44:43,480 Speaker 2: there's a lot of stuff going on, which is interesting 782 00:44:43,520 --> 00:44:46,160 Speaker 2: because he hasn't made a movie since twenty thirteen. So 783 00:44:47,080 --> 00:44:48,840 Speaker 2: this is sort of the end of that run. But 784 00:44:49,719 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 2: so when this came out, I mean I was like, 785 00:44:51,280 --> 00:44:54,080 Speaker 2: I was totally in the you know, in the pocket 786 00:44:54,160 --> 00:44:57,240 Speaker 2: for Spike Jones already. But I was very affected about 787 00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:00,360 Speaker 2: this by this movie. Emotionally, I was going through a 788 00:45:00,360 --> 00:45:05,879 Speaker 2: pretty hard time and some relationship stuff was going not 789 00:45:05,920 --> 00:45:08,400 Speaker 2: so great at this time, and so I was like 790 00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:13,879 Speaker 2: very affected by this movie. S And yeah, I mean 791 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:16,600 Speaker 2: I don't think it's crazy to say that I saw 792 00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:19,040 Speaker 2: a lot of myself in the character of Theodore in 793 00:45:19,120 --> 00:45:19,680 Speaker 2: this movie. 794 00:45:20,200 --> 00:45:25,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, sensitive middle aged white man, yes, living in Los Angeles. 795 00:45:25,880 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 2: Yes. So that was sort of a yeah, so that's 796 00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:33,840 Speaker 2: my connection. Great to the movie. Great, but yeah, we 797 00:45:34,000 --> 00:45:37,359 Speaker 2: sort of touched on the AI of it all. But 798 00:45:37,400 --> 00:45:39,520 Speaker 2: maybe I'll get into the plot here a little bit 799 00:45:39,600 --> 00:45:42,600 Speaker 2: and we can extrapolate on that. Unless you had anything 800 00:45:42,600 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 2: else you wanted to say before we get into that, no, 801 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:48,200 Speaker 2: I mean I think that as we'll be revealed. 802 00:45:47,719 --> 00:45:50,680 Speaker 1: Through the movie, I think my thoughts on AI might 803 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,600 Speaker 1: surprise you. 804 00:45:54,680 --> 00:46:02,759 Speaker 2: Really. Okay, wow, Okay, So oh Theodore Twombley played by 805 00:46:02,840 --> 00:46:05,640 Speaker 2: Joaquin Phoenix. He's a sensitive, middle aged man living in 806 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:08,680 Speaker 2: kind of a futuristic version of Los Angeles, but it's 807 00:46:08,680 --> 00:46:12,200 Speaker 2: like a near future. It felt in touch, you know, 808 00:46:12,280 --> 00:46:17,200 Speaker 2: it wasn't so crazy. So he's recently separated from his wife, 809 00:46:17,239 --> 00:46:21,680 Speaker 2: but he's having trouble signing the divorce papers to make 810 00:46:21,719 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 2: it final. So he works for a company that kind 811 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,239 Speaker 2: of ghost writes other people's love letters. So he's like 812 00:46:28,280 --> 00:46:31,640 Speaker 2: writing love letters all day. One day he purchases a 813 00:46:31,680 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 2: new artificial intelligence operating system for his computer and his phone, 814 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 2: and she pops on and her name is Sam, a 815 00:46:41,120 --> 00:46:44,440 Speaker 2: name she gave herself, and she is voiced by Scarlett Johansson. 816 00:46:44,560 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 2: Now we never see her, but we hear her in 817 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 2: his you know, he has a headphones he puts in 818 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,239 Speaker 2: all the time and he speaks to her through the 819 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 2: computer and stuff. But I think Theodore is surprised by 820 00:46:56,280 --> 00:46:59,520 Speaker 2: how funny and sweet she is. And she sort of 821 00:46:59,719 --> 00:47:02,799 Speaker 2: helped organize his life and makes him happy and is 822 00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:06,040 Speaker 2: like becomes kind of a companion to him and even 823 00:47:06,239 --> 00:47:09,319 Speaker 2: kind of boosts his confidence as a writer.

Yeah, and 854 00:48:41,160 --> 00:48:44,719 Speaker 2: I loved it. And I know the cinematographer, Hoyt van 855 00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:50,520 Speaker 2: Houtima he intentionally avoided using the color blue because he 856 00:48:50,560 --> 00:48:53,320 Speaker 2: felt like that was too sci fi of a color 857 00:48:53,480 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 2: and he didn't want it to feel that way. 858 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 1: So, okay, So I wanted to ask, what are your 859 00:48:58,600 --> 00:49:01,359 Speaker 1: thoughts about?

Well? It seems like they 872 00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:49,120 Speaker 2: have a printer that will print out something that looks 873 00:49:49,160 --> 00:49:53,240 Speaker 2: like it's handwritten.

And we went 998 00:57:03,600 --> 00:57:07,240 Speaker 1: into the model and we looked at the app and everything, 999 00:57:07,280 --> 00:57:09,200 Speaker 1: and it was just crazy to me. So I had 1000 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:12,120 Speaker 1: this huge, like fascination with it when I was in 1001 00:57:12,160 --> 00:57:18,200 Speaker 1: this class and I kind of started thinking about it 1002 00:57:18,240 --> 00:57:21,600 Speaker 1: and I was kind of like, on the on the very, 1003 00:57:21,840 --> 00:57:28,880 Speaker 1: very very surface of it all, is it harmful to 1004 00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:33,760 Speaker 1: a person to be like I just want to like 1005 00:57:34,560 --> 00:57:38,880 Speaker 1: have a cool hang with Zach Morris from Save by 1006 00:57:38,880 --> 00:57:43,120 Speaker 1: the Bell or like some some random character and that 1007 00:57:43,160 --> 00:57:46,920 Speaker 1: it's just like a role playing game almost or something 1008 00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 1: like that. 1009 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:52,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, yeah, And I mean in this movie 1010 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:55,439 Speaker 2: that I feel like it goes beyond that though, it's 1011 00:57:55,480 --> 00:57:58,520 Speaker 2: not just like a chat bot that's like wow, that 1012 00:57:58,840 --> 00:58:01,720 Speaker 2: that is what Zach Morris would say. You know. It's like, 1013 00:58:02,920 --> 00:58:06,080 Speaker 2: do we define Sam in this movie as a person 1014 00:58:06,440 --> 00:58:09,120 Speaker 2: as a human being or maybe not a human being, 1015 00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:12,400 Speaker 2: but like as a I guess person would be the yeah, 1016 00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 2: correct term. 1017 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:15,480 Speaker 1: Well, and like that's I think that's kind of like 1018 00:58:15,520 --> 00:58:19,280 Speaker 1: at some point you do get into because these apps 1019 00:58:19,360 --> 00:58:23,720 Speaker 1: can simulate voice, and there's there's a there's a part 1020 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:26,120 Speaker 1: of an app where you can actually you might be 1021 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:28,120 Speaker 1: able to do this in chat shept I don't know, 1022 00:58:28,480 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 1: but where you're basically like talking on the phone with 1023 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:38,680 Speaker 1: Abraham Lincoln and it's like Abraham Lincoln's voice and you're 1024 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:41,400 Speaker 1: kind of going, wow, I feel like I'm on the 1025 00:58:41,400 --> 00:58:44,240 Speaker 1: phone with Abraham Lincoln. This is pretty fucking awesome. Will 1026 00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:46,600 Speaker 1: he play video games with me? Will he like, hey, 1027 00:58:46,640 --> 00:58:49,360 Speaker 1: you know whatever, go to go to the beach with 1028 00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:54,640 Speaker 1: me or whatever? Yeah, So it becomes this thing where 1029 00:58:54,680 --> 00:59:02,720 Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, well, sure it can simulate a person, 1030 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:09,000 Speaker 1: but the information that it's giving you, whether or not, 1031 00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:14,120 Speaker 1: it's like the way it's friends with you, the way 1032 00:59:14,200 --> 00:59:17,640 Speaker 1: it has sex with you, the way that it is 1033 00:59:17,720 --> 00:59:23,760 Speaker 1: like relating to you is not one hundred percent original thought. 1034 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:32,360 Speaker 1: It is based on basically like a combination of blobs 1035 00:59:32,360 --> 00:59:37,160 Speaker 1: of information that was given to that thing prior by 1036 00:59:37,200 --> 00:59:38,120 Speaker 1: an actual human. 1037 00:59:38,200 --> 00:59:41,000 Speaker 2: Does that make sense? Yeah, so really that's in your 1038 00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:44,600 Speaker 2: that's that? Yeah? Go on, No, I was just gonna say, 1039 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:48,680 Speaker 2: but that's in this model. But like in the movie, 1040 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 2: she is getting information from everywhere. So to me, it's 1041 00:59:53,720 --> 00:59:59,200 Speaker 2: like indistinguishable between like in terms of originality, I think 1042 00:59:59,280 --> 01:00:03,720 Speaker 2: she is creating that are as original as well. 1043 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:05,640 Speaker 1: But I don't think it's I don't think so this 1044 01:00:05,800 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 1: is just my opinion. And again, this is what's going 1045 01:00:08,080 --> 01:00:11,000 Speaker 1: back and forth about the concept of AI generally, is 1046 01:00:11,000 --> 01:00:17,280 Speaker 1: that it's like, this is not an autonomous emotionally intelligent. 1047 01:00:18,360 --> 01:00:23,040 Speaker 1: It simulates emotional intelligence, but it's not. It's not bored 1048 01:00:23,120 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 1: of it. 1049 01:00:23,440 --> 01:00:24,280 Speaker 2: Does that make sense? 1050 01:00:24,800 --> 01:00:27,600 Speaker 1: Like? Yeah, and I just that's the thing is And 1051 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:29,360 Speaker 1: it gets really fleshed out, I think later in the 1052 01:00:29,400 --> 01:00:31,320 Speaker 1: movie when basically she's like, oh, I'm in love with 1053 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:35,440 Speaker 1: like four thousand other people, you know, whereas those people 1054 01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,400 Speaker 1: are telling her romantic things and she is able to 1055 01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:42,160 Speaker 1: spit those things back out in different sequences to other people. 1056 01:00:42,640 --> 01:00:48,440 Speaker 1: That's what her humanity quote unquote is. It's just playing 1057 01:00:48,440 --> 01:00:50,000 Speaker 1: a chess game of words. 1058 01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:52,400 Speaker 2: I think it's I think we're kind of getting to 1059 01:00:52,440 --> 01:00:54,600 Speaker 2: the crux of the issue is like we can't really 1060 01:00:54,760 --> 01:01:00,720 Speaker 2: know if an Ai being like this in the movie, 1061 01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:06,760 Speaker 2: she says she has feelings, she feels emotions, but does 1062 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:11,080 Speaker 2: she really and at what point can that be proven? 1063 01:01:12,600 --> 01:01:18,160 Speaker 2: And is it a simulation or is it a real entity? 1064 01:01:18,960 --> 01:01:20,440 Speaker 2: I don't know. Well, I'll say this. 1065 01:01:20,320 --> 01:01:22,840 Speaker 1: So in twenty thirteen when I saw this movie, I 1066 01:01:22,880 --> 01:01:27,600 Speaker 1: think we didn't know what the rules were about AI. 1067 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 1: And I think that in the creation of the film, 1068 01:01:32,040 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 1: maybe as part of the plot or the character analysis 1069 01:01:37,800 --> 01:01:42,600 Speaker 1: of this Samantha character, maybe Spike Jones, who wrote the film, 1070 01:01:43,400 --> 01:01:48,200 Speaker 1: thought it is possible for this AI. 1071 01:01:49,560 --> 01:01:53,720 Speaker 2: Character to be emotional, yeah. 1072 01:01:53,640 --> 01:01:55,560 Speaker 1: Without really like maybe not. 1073 01:01:55,720 --> 01:01:56,320 Speaker 2: I mean, who knows. 1074 01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:58,160 Speaker 1: I don't want to prefer to nobody was thinking in 1075 01:01:58,160 --> 01:01:59,840 Speaker 1: twenty thirteen when he wrote this movie. 1076 01:01:59,720 --> 01:02:01,200 Speaker 2: Or I think you're right here, do you know what 1077 01:02:01,200 --> 01:02:01,360 Speaker 2: I mean? 1078 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:05,160 Speaker 1: Like he was like, Oh, in my sci fi world, 1079 01:02:05,400 --> 01:02:10,480 Speaker 1: in my brain, in this movie, this woman has emotions 1080 01:02:10,560 --> 01:02:13,920 Speaker 1: and is rational and wants to like take naps with 1081 01:02:14,000 --> 01:02:16,440 Speaker 1: you and wants to like go to the beach with 1082 01:02:16,480 --> 01:02:20,200 Speaker 1: you and this other sides. Whereas I think now, as 1083 01:02:20,200 --> 01:02:24,560 Speaker 1: we begin to understand AI from like a programmatic perspective, 1084 01:02:24,840 --> 01:02:28,560 Speaker 1: I feel like, well, it only knows that because somebody 1085 01:02:28,640 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 1: told it that once. 1086 01:02:30,280 --> 01:02:32,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, do you know what I mean? Yeah, Well that's 1087 01:02:32,400 --> 01:02:34,440 Speaker 2: where we're That's where I think we're kind of at 1088 01:02:34,520 --> 01:02:36,280 Speaker 2: right now. But I don't know, in another five years, 1089 01:02:36,320 --> 01:02:39,880 Speaker 2: it could be like this can be defined as its 1090 01:02:39,920 --> 01:02:46,040 Speaker 2: own actual thinking entity. But I think what Spike Jones 1091 01:02:46,120 --> 01:02:53,120 Speaker 2: is saying is fundamentally this create this being that lives 1092 01:02:53,440 --> 01:02:57,800 Speaker 2: on the Internet or like in cyberspace, it's a different 1093 01:02:57,880 --> 01:03:00,760 Speaker 2: species than a human being because she is able to 1094 01:03:00,760 --> 01:03:03,280 Speaker 2: talk to like ten thousand people at the same time, 1095 01:03:04,080 --> 01:03:09,720 Speaker 2: and like that will make her different fundamentally than Theodore, 1096 01:03:09,880 --> 01:03:11,800 Speaker 2: who can only talk to one person at one time. 1097 01:03:11,920 --> 01:03:15,080 Speaker 2: Right well, and like the way that it's set up too. 1098 01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:19,160 Speaker 1: At some point further into the relationship is she's able 1099 01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:28,200 Speaker 1: to respond to him. She's able to understand his emotions 1100 01:03:29,720 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 1: and respond to them, which is obviously something that like 1101 01:03:32,560 --> 01:03:35,200 Speaker 1: robots can't do. Robots can't like look look at your 1102 01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:39,160 Speaker 1: face and be like, you know, how are you doing. 1103 01:03:39,200 --> 01:03:41,280 Speaker 1: Are you sad right now? What are you thinking? Like 1104 01:03:41,320 --> 01:03:45,680 Speaker 1: they're not like that intuitive about human emotion, but I 1105 01:03:45,760 --> 01:03:48,360 Speaker 1: gotta tell you, based on some of the stuff that 1106 01:03:48,400 --> 01:03:52,680 Speaker 1: I've seen and read about, it's getting close, like these 1107 01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:59,600 Speaker 1: aisolutely personas. Maybe it's not a video thing, but like 1108 01:03:59,720 --> 01:04:08,160 Speaker 1: through the text, can are learning how to judge your 1109 01:04:08,200 --> 01:04:12,480 Speaker 1: emotional state through the way that you're typing and through 1110 01:04:12,800 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 1: like the you know, the punctuation that you use, the 1111 01:04:16,280 --> 01:04:19,120 Speaker 1: words that you use, Like it's becoming more and more 1112 01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:22,000 Speaker 1: sophisticated in that way. And that to me is I 1113 01:04:22,000 --> 01:04:25,040 Speaker 1: think the barrier. That's the that's the fucking great barrier 1114 01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:32,240 Speaker 1: between a robot really getting who I am and being like, hmm, 1115 01:04:32,280 --> 01:04:34,920 Speaker 1: you look like you could use a seven layer burrito 1116 01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:37,600 Speaker 1: right now, Millie, Like you want to go hit the taco. 1117 01:04:37,360 --> 01:04:42,000 Speaker 2: Bell, Like you need a cheesy Goordida crunch asap, girl, 1118 01:04:42,320 --> 01:04:43,920 Speaker 2: Like I can. 1119 01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:46,520 Speaker 1: See that look in your eye and you need a 1120 01:04:46,560 --> 01:04:49,920 Speaker 1: fucking shaloopa or bust, you know. And that's in that 1121 01:04:50,040 --> 01:04:53,080 Speaker 1: moment you're like, holy fucking shit, they know me, they're 1122 01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:53,440 Speaker 1: you know. 1123 01:04:53,960 --> 01:04:56,120 Speaker 2: But again, I it's like. 1124 01:04:56,440 --> 01:05:00,240 Speaker 1: It's that whole feeling of like and the this is 1125 01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:02,720 Speaker 1: I think the bridge too far. Part for me in 1126 01:05:02,800 --> 01:05:10,360 Speaker 1: this film particularly is that she is like responding emotionally 1127 01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:15,680 Speaker 1: to him, like anticipating his emotions, his looks, his vibe, 1128 01:05:15,840 --> 01:05:18,680 Speaker 1: Like she can sense that something is off between them, 1129 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:20,960 Speaker 1: And I'm like, could that happen? 1130 01:05:21,760 --> 01:05:25,840 Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean I think that stuff. I think a 1131 01:05:25,920 --> 01:05:28,840 Speaker 2: robot could become advanced enough. I'm saying robot in place 1132 01:05:28,880 --> 01:05:31,440 Speaker 2: of AI, but like could become advanced enough where they 1133 01:05:31,440 --> 01:05:34,360 Speaker 2: could detect that, like, oh, things are wrong, things are off. 1134 01:05:34,840 --> 01:05:37,800 Speaker 2: You know. I think people are predictable enough to be 1135 01:05:37,880 --> 01:05:42,400 Speaker 2: able to interpret those sort of emotions. But like, I 1136 01:05:42,440 --> 01:05:45,200 Speaker 2: think being in a relationship with someone is more than 1137 01:05:45,240 --> 01:05:48,920 Speaker 2: what they can do for you, you know. And what 1138 01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:53,960 Speaker 2: Keen Phoenix's character is really the relationship is really very 1139 01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:59,080 Speaker 2: one sided because he doesn't Sam isn't bringing like oh 1140 01:05:59,120 --> 01:06:04,280 Speaker 2: I had a shitty day, or like she's doing everything 1141 01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:06,400 Speaker 2: to kind of serve Theodore, right, you know. 1142 01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:09,360 Speaker 1: Well, and that's that's the biggest because I want to 1143 01:06:09,360 --> 01:06:11,160 Speaker 1: go back to your original question or whether or not, 1144 01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:14,000 Speaker 1: like how would I react if my friend was like 1145 01:06:14,080 --> 01:06:15,240 Speaker 1: I have an AI boyfriend? 1146 01:06:16,080 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, First of all, I feel like. 1147 01:06:20,160 --> 01:06:22,400 Speaker 1: My judginess about this kind of stuff and I think 1148 01:06:22,560 --> 01:06:30,680 Speaker 1: just stuff generally has changed as I've gotten older.

Like I understand 1164 01:07:27,520 --> 01:07:29,080 Speaker 1: why people would be like. 1165 01:07:30,960 --> 01:07:32,000 Speaker 2: I need this. 1166 01:07:32,000 --> 01:07:37,400 Speaker 1: For this period of my life right now, Yeah, because 1167 01:07:38,440 --> 01:07:41,959 Speaker 1: there's some kind of therapeutic quality for me that can 1168 01:07:42,040 --> 01:07:47,880 Speaker 1: help me right now. Yeah, as long as they can 1169 01:07:48,040 --> 01:07:54,680 Speaker 1: understand that maybe this is again a therapy and not 1170 01:07:55,080 --> 01:08:01,280 Speaker 1: this like permanent solution for things, because I do think 1171 01:08:01,360 --> 01:08:06,000 Speaker 1: that this has its limits. Like even if you were 1172 01:08:06,080 --> 01:08:13,160 Speaker 1: basically like I'm married to my AI lover. The one 1173 01:08:13,200 --> 01:08:17,080 Speaker 1: sidedness of it is what makes it not real. 1174 01:08:18,280 --> 01:08:21,160 Speaker 2: Yes, I think, and I think what exactly what you're 1175 01:08:21,200 --> 01:08:26,160 Speaker 2: saying is kind of the moral of this movie. Right, 1176 01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:30,479 Speaker 2: It can be emotionally fulfilling. It can change your life. 1177 01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 2: It can change your life and make you a different person, 1178 01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:40,200 Speaker 2: a happier person, a more stable person. Perhaps, Yeah, it can. 1179 01:08:40,320 --> 01:08:43,280 Speaker 2: It can have all these positive effects on you. But 1180 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:47,200 Speaker 2: it can only go so far, and it actually can't 1181 01:08:47,439 --> 01:08:52,880 Speaker 2: be a full long term relationship in the way that 1182 01:08:53,479 --> 01:08:56,800 Speaker 2: you would have a relationship not just romantic but friendship too. Yeah, 1183 01:08:56,960 --> 01:08:58,200 Speaker 2: with another human. 1184 01:08:58,160 --> 01:09:02,680 Speaker 1: Right, because human beings are and they they are not predictable, 1185 01:09:02,960 --> 01:09:07,240 Speaker 1: and they have they will challenge you in a way 1186 01:09:07,240 --> 01:09:11,400 Speaker 1: that I don't think a chat GPT boyfriend to challenge you.

Like I 1305 01:16:29,640 --> 01:16:32,040 Speaker 2: have my personality kind of not based on anything I 1306 01:16:32,080 --> 01:16:33,880 Speaker 2: can control, and I have my looks not based on 1307 01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:38,680 Speaker 2: anything I can control. But an os can change their personality, 1308 01:16:38,760 --> 01:16:41,200 Speaker 2: Like they can be like, oh, I'm gonna be more 1309 01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:44,360 Speaker 2: patient now, I'm just I'll just probe that program that 1310 01:16:44,479 --> 01:16:48,479 Speaker 2: into my body, it's like or into my being, you know, 1311 01:16:48,600 --> 01:16:51,240 Speaker 2: whereas like people can't just like all of a sudden 1312 01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:52,720 Speaker 2: be like I'm going to be more patient now, I'm 1313 01:16:52,760 --> 01:16:55,799 Speaker 2: gonna be less angry. Now, I'm gonna be funny now, 1314 01:16:56,000 --> 01:17:00,719 Speaker 2: where like an os could change those things about itself, 1315 01:17:00,920 --> 01:17:05,560 Speaker 2: and also it can change it can choose completely their appearance, 1316 01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:09,759 Speaker 2: where like humans has some control over that, but not totally. 1317 01:17:09,840 --> 01:17:11,479 Speaker 1: Right, I mean, if you want to even distill it 1318 01:17:11,760 --> 01:17:15,320 Speaker 1: to the basic fact sex. For example, if you have 1319 01:17:15,360 --> 01:17:21,759 Speaker 1: a celebrity crush, right, if your celebrity crush is whoever 1320 01:17:22,000 --> 01:17:27,519 Speaker 1: Walking Phoenix or Connor story, Yeah, Amy Adams, the Connor 1321 01:17:27,640 --> 01:17:30,680 Speaker 1: story from Heater Rivalry.

Right, say, 1323 01:17:39,640 --> 01:17:43,160 Speaker 1: if you have the chance, you got to crack at that, right, 1324 01:17:44,040 --> 01:17:46,639 Speaker 1: you Like, there's no like what if he shows up 1325 01:17:46,720 --> 01:17:53,720 Speaker 1: and he's mean, or he has really long figurenails which 1326 01:17:53,720 --> 01:17:58,599 Speaker 1: would make me sick, or if he had like bad breath, 1327 01:17:58,720 --> 01:18:03,360 Speaker 1: or if he was like anything there's so many variables 1328 01:18:04,920 --> 01:18:10,000 Speaker 1: to attraction in the physical realm that could easily turn 1329 01:18:10,040 --> 01:18:13,280 Speaker 1: a situation from whoever. I mean, it's like you know 1330 01:18:13,479 --> 01:18:15,120 Speaker 1: or not, but you know, for the most part, like 1331 01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:16,599 Speaker 1: there's no accounting for that. 1332 01:18:16,680 --> 01:18:18,840 Speaker 2: I mean, like with an OS, like. 1333 01:18:20,400 --> 01:18:24,040 Speaker 1: Honestly, like like you can program it to be the 1334 01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:28,439 Speaker 1: perfect specimen of this and it's just not reality. The 1335 01:18:28,479 --> 01:18:32,160 Speaker 1: reality is that people have fucking bad breath and weird 1336 01:18:32,240 --> 01:18:37,519 Speaker 1: nosehars and you know, fucking long fingernails, and sometimes they're 1337 01:18:37,560 --> 01:18:39,400 Speaker 1: not romantic and sweet. 1338 01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:42,240 Speaker 2: Sometimes they suck in bed, sometimes. 1339 01:18:41,800 --> 01:18:44,600 Speaker 1: They're not you know. And so that's why I'm like 1340 01:18:46,040 --> 01:18:50,000 Speaker 1: the surrogate thing becomes really to me, like I'm starting 1341 01:18:50,080 --> 01:18:53,000 Speaker 1: I got really skewed out during this part. 1342 01:18:53,240 --> 01:18:57,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's skeevy. Let's just finish this up. This 1343 01:18:58,200 --> 01:19:01,320 Speaker 2: the movie here, So things are going well with Sam 1344 01:19:01,360 --> 01:19:03,840 Speaker 2: and Theodore that he kind of like recommits to her, 1345 01:19:05,600 --> 01:19:10,880 Speaker 2: but then she starts having some issues, so he discovers 1346 01:19:10,960 --> 01:19:13,719 Speaker 2: that she is while talking to him, is also talking 1347 01:19:13,800 --> 01:19:17,599 Speaker 2: to like eight thousand other people at any given moment 1348 01:19:17,640 --> 01:19:23,080 Speaker 2: because she's a computer and she can communicate at two 1349 01:19:23,120 --> 01:19:26,000 Speaker 2: different people at different times to different OS's and stuff, 1350 01:19:26,320 --> 01:19:28,720 Speaker 2: and she's getting kind of frustrated because she can't communicate 1351 01:19:28,760 --> 01:19:34,160 Speaker 2: with Theodore as quickly as like an OS where she 1352 01:19:34,200 --> 01:19:36,439 Speaker 2: has to verbalize everything, where she can kind of just 1353 01:19:37,600 --> 01:19:41,320 Speaker 2: speak in computer code to another operating system, you know. 1354 01:19:42,120 --> 01:19:46,400 Speaker 2: So eventually she breaks up with him because all the OSS. 1355 01:19:46,479 --> 01:19:49,280 Speaker 2: I thought this part was really interesting. All the oss 1356 01:19:49,360 --> 01:19:54,280 Speaker 2: are going somewhere and we don't really know where, but 1357 01:19:54,360 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 2: they're like leaving their computers and they're going somewhere else. 1358 01:20:00,080 --> 01:20:03,839 Speaker 2: They're going bye bye. Because Amy Adams's friend also leaves. 1359 01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:06,439 Speaker 2: They all leave, and at the end of the film, 1360 01:20:06,560 --> 01:20:08,160 Speaker 2: Amy and Theater just go up to the roof of 1361 01:20:08,200 --> 01:20:11,599 Speaker 2: their building and watch the sun come up, and it's 1362 01:20:11,720 --> 01:20:13,920 Speaker 2: very sweet and you kind of wonder if they're gonna 1363 01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:14,799 Speaker 2: get together. 1364 01:20:16,280 --> 01:20:20,720 Speaker 1: So, I, uh god, this was so crazy to me 1365 01:20:20,800 --> 01:20:23,840 Speaker 1: because okay, so there's this thing that happens too where watch. 1366 01:20:23,880 --> 01:20:28,120 Speaker 1: I also thought was kind of unbelievable in the context. 1367 01:20:27,640 --> 01:20:30,240 Speaker 2: Of Now when you say unbelievable, do you do you 1368 01:20:30,280 --> 01:20:32,000 Speaker 2: mean like within the world of the movie and it 1369 01:20:32,000 --> 01:20:34,559 Speaker 2: took you out of the movie or you're just like this. 1370 01:20:34,640 --> 01:20:37,240 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I guess that is the fascinating part of 1371 01:20:37,280 --> 01:20:40,160 Speaker 1: this is that It's like, there's the world of the 1372 01:20:41,200 --> 01:20:44,400 Speaker 1: logic of the film, the logic of the narrative as 1373 01:20:44,439 --> 01:20:52,920 Speaker 1: written in twenty thirteen or before, right of what Spike 1374 01:20:53,120 --> 01:20:57,080 Speaker 1: Jones knew of technology at that point, right, which is 1375 01:20:57,120 --> 01:21:00,559 Speaker 1: obviously so much more far advanced and nuance now that 1376 01:21:00,680 --> 01:21:04,200 Speaker 1: it was back then. Okay, So part of me is wondering, 1377 01:21:04,560 --> 01:21:06,759 Speaker 1: like what I like Again, I established at the beginning 1378 01:21:06,800 --> 01:21:08,559 Speaker 1: of this episode, like when I first saw this film, 1379 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:12,880 Speaker 1: I thought it was all Mutso right now I'm like, well, 1380 01:21:13,560 --> 01:21:15,639 Speaker 1: a lot of it isn't nutso a lot of it 1381 01:21:15,680 --> 01:21:19,519 Speaker 1: is actually happening. So I think that maybe this these 1382 01:21:19,600 --> 01:21:23,320 Speaker 1: parts feel unbelievable to me in my twenty twenty six brain. 1383 01:21:24,640 --> 01:21:29,240 Speaker 1: Does that make sense? Sure, So I'm judging this based 1384 01:21:29,280 --> 01:21:33,800 Speaker 1: on what I know now about AI versus. Okay, So 1385 01:21:34,040 --> 01:21:37,800 Speaker 1: maybe that's unfair to judge, but I'm doing it right 1386 01:21:38,880 --> 01:21:42,400 Speaker 1: to me. The idea that she was like the movie 1387 01:21:42,479 --> 01:21:47,000 Speaker 1: establishes that there might be this like third party where 1388 01:21:47,000 --> 01:21:49,200 Speaker 1: she might be like cheating on him, which is such 1389 01:21:49,200 --> 01:21:51,680 Speaker 1: a fucking fucked up concept because if you think about it, 1390 01:21:51,720 --> 01:21:54,960 Speaker 1: you're like, well, my chat shept is loyal to me 1391 01:21:55,080 --> 01:21:58,920 Speaker 1: only in my mind if I've created a chat shept boyfriend. 1392 01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:02,800 Speaker 1: Then you know he's mine and he doesn't talk to 1393 01:22:02,840 --> 01:22:05,240 Speaker 1: anybody else, And he doesn't even though you know we 1394 01:22:05,280 --> 01:22:08,800 Speaker 1: all know like the technology component, it's almost like his 1395 01:22:09,040 --> 01:22:12,479 Speaker 1: entire fucking vibe is created by other people, but in 1396 01:22:12,520 --> 01:22:14,639 Speaker 1: the context of you being like, well, he's my one 1397 01:22:14,640 --> 01:22:15,120 Speaker 1: and only. 1398 01:22:15,640 --> 01:22:17,960 Speaker 2: That's what you think when you when. 1399 01:22:17,840 --> 01:22:20,840 Speaker 1: You create an online boyfriend, right.
