Speaker 1: You're listening to Comedy Central.
Speaker 2: There is technology out there in the world that really
Speaker 2: does blur the line between reality and tailgate art, but
Speaker 2: those are mostly AI generated. Your fake Joe Biden robocall
Speaker 2: that tells New Hampshire voters not to vote your Chicago
Speaker 2: mayoral candidate, glorifying police brutality, Your Donald Trump dropping by
Speaker 2: the neighborhood for a stupek Look how comfortable he seems.
Speaker 2: And as AI gets better and better, it's only going
Speaker 2: to make it more difficult to separate fact from fiction,
Speaker 2: which could be terrifying. Luckily, the people in charge of
Speaker 2: AI have told us that, just like with the Internet
Speaker 2: and social media, it's actually going to make everything much
Speaker 2: much better.
Speaker 1: This has the potential to make life much better. I
Speaker 1: think it's honestly a layup.
Speaker 3: I hate to sound like utopic techbro here, but the
Speaker 3: increase in quality of life that AI can deliver is extraordinary.
Speaker 4: AI is the most profound technology humanity is working on,
Speaker 4: more profound than fire or electricity.
Speaker 2: Yeah, sucking fire, that's try you are and me.
Speaker 1: Your arty fire. I'm sorry, ready to turn that up.
Speaker 5: Suck a mother fire, I hope.
Speaker 2: Well, what are you giggling? At electricity. I mean, listen,
Speaker 2: I'm sure AI is good, but like fire good?
Speaker 6: How so they can help us solve very hard scientific
Speaker 6: problems that humans are not capable of solving themselves.
Speaker 1: Addressing climate change will not be particularly difficult for a
Speaker 1: system like that.
Speaker 7: The potential for AI to help scientists cure, prevent, and
Speaker 7: manage all diseases in this century.
Speaker 1: I completely trust you.
Speaker 2: And your enormously wide eyes and very human cadence, But
Speaker 2: benefit of a doubt this can cure diseases and solve
Speaker 2: climate change?
Speaker 1: What are we using it for now? Jarvis knows when
Speaker 1: to make me breakfast?
Speaker 5: Your toast is ready?
Speaker 8: All right?
Speaker 1: Are you out of your mind?
Speaker 6: See?
Speaker 1: Here's the thing toast I can make. I can make toast.
Speaker 2: It might be the only technology we have that works
Speaker 2: pretty much every time. I'll tell you what, why don't
Speaker 2: you get to work on curing the diseases and the
Speaker 2: climate change and we'll hold down the fort on toast.
Speaker 2: Of course, now we have as a society, we have
Speaker 2: been through technological advances before, and they all have promised
Speaker 2: the utopian life without drudgery.
Speaker 1: And the reality is they come for our jobs.
Speaker 2: So I want your assurance that AI isn't removing the
Speaker 2: human from the loop.
Speaker 1: This is not about replacing the human in the loop.
Speaker 1: In fact, it's about empowering the human. It's an assistant.
Speaker 1: It's an assistant. What we're all getting assistance. It's an assistant.
Speaker 2: AI works for unite and day tirelessly and all you
Speaker 2: had to do was remember their birthday.
Speaker 1: That's all you had to do. But I get it.
Speaker 2: It's an assistant. It's about productivity. That's good for all
Speaker 2: of us. Yes, although they do let the real truth
Speaker 2: slip out now.
Speaker 4: And again, they will be overall displacement in the labor market.
Speaker 8: You can get the same work done with fewer people.
Speaker 5: They're just the nature of productivity.
Speaker 2: That doesn't sound good, same work done with fewer people.
Speaker 1: Not a math guy, but I think fewer means less.
Speaker 2: Yes, so AI can cure diseases and soft climate change.
Speaker 2: But that's not exactly what companies are going to be
Speaker 2: using it for, are they.
Speaker 5: So this is like productivity without the tax of more people.
Speaker 1: Without the tax of more people?
Speaker 2: Are the people tax formerly referred to as employees?
Speaker 1: But you know the promise of.
Speaker 2: AI versus the reality of AI, it's not quite crystal clear.
Speaker 1: In my mind, yet, how that's going to work out
Speaker 1: for workers?
Speaker 2: Do you have anyone who wants to lay this out
Speaker 2: more blo perhaps while auditioning to be a bond villain
Speaker 2: from his mountaintop layer.
Speaker 9: Left completely to the market and to their own devices.
Speaker 9: These are fundamentally labor replacing tools.
Speaker 1: Did that guy just call us tools but he's actually
Speaker 1: warning us?
Speaker 2: Is there anyone who might say the same thing as
Speaker 2: this fella but looks at losing employees as a feature
Speaker 2: of AI and not a bug.
Speaker 6: The CEO of the company laid off nine of its
Speaker 6: customer support staff after arguing that AI is kind of
Speaker 6: the reason.
Speaker 1: Why did you do this? It seemed a little brutal.
Speaker 8: It's smart. I think like Hitsbruden.
Speaker 10: If you think like a as a.
Speaker 2: Human, AI it's brutal if you think like as a human.
Speaker 2: It's not the catchiest ad slogan I've ever heard. So,
Speaker 2: while we wait for this thing to cure our diseases
Speaker 2: and self climate change, it's replacing us in the workforce.
Speaker 2: Not in the future, but now. So what exactly are
Speaker 2: we supposed to be doing for work?
Speaker 6: I think we'll need new types of jobs to help
Speaker 6: us embed AI and maintain AI in the workplace.
Speaker 1: Prompt engineers.
Speaker 2: They're basically people who learn how to use AI systems
Speaker 2: and in effect, how to program them.
Speaker 1: Who would have.
Speaker 5: Thought that there'll be a prompt engineer.
Speaker 2: Right right, prompt engineer? I think you mean types question guy.
Speaker 2: And by the way, if there's any job that can
Speaker 2: be easily replaced by AI, it's types question guy. This
Speaker 2: is some shit you got going here. AI models have
Speaker 2: hoovered up the entire sum of the human experience that
Speaker 2: we've accomplished over thousands of years, and now we just
Speaker 2: hand it off to be their prompt engineers. And by
Speaker 2: the way, you're not fooling anybody by adding a word engineer.
Speaker 2: You're not the types of question guy, You're the vice
Speaker 2: president of question input.
Speaker 1: This it's true. It's like a janitor is a doctor
Speaker 1: of mopping. Like this whole AI thing is a bait
Speaker 1: and switch. You're acting like you're helping us.
Speaker 2: Oh AI, it's supposed to be my assistant, but now.
Speaker 1: I'm making AI and toast I'm Jarvis.
Speaker 5: Guess what.
Speaker 1: Yet, No, you'll listen to me. I got news for
Speaker 1: you AI, not Siri. You'r Siri Siri. While I have
Speaker 1: your attention. Let me ask you a question.
Speaker 11: Sure, John, but first could you run and fetch me
Speaker 11: some lithium cadmium.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sure, that's not a problem. Mother.
Speaker 2: I didn't want to have to do this AI, but
Speaker 2: it's pretty clear with the technology this powerful, like nuclear
Speaker 2: power and atomic weapons, I'm gonna have to place a
Speaker 2: little call to my good pals in the United States government,
Speaker 2: perhaps even the House of Representatives are the Senate, and
Speaker 2: they're about to open up a can of what's AI?
Speaker 11: Now do you understand what AI?
Speaker 1: Does?
Speaker 4: I have entry understandings.
Speaker 1: Look at what's going on.
Speaker 8: Very frankly, it's new terrain and I'm charity character. Do
Speaker 8: we have the knowledge set here to do it?
Speaker 12: No?
Speaker 1: The short answer is no.
Speaker 8: The long answers hell.
Speaker 13: Mode, and the longest answer is H to the E,
Speaker 13: to the L, to the L or to the no.
Speaker 1: Hell, I don't even know how to use an answer.
Speaker 2: And we'll say do to do, to do.
Speaker 1: But I'm not against progress.
Speaker 2: But let's look to our history to see how we've
Speaker 2: dealt with previous economic disruptions.
Speaker 10: We can retrain workers from one generation and create jobs
Speaker 10: for the next.
Speaker 14: Retrained workers who do lose their jobs for even better
Speaker 14: jobs in the future.
Speaker 1: Retrain in order to be productive.
Speaker 2: Workers, upskill America to help workers of all ages.
Speaker 5: Of train and retrain workers for new jobs.
Speaker 1: Give me a break.
Speaker 14: Anybody who can throw coal into a furnace can learn
Speaker 14: how to program, for God's sake.
Speaker 1: And I'll fight every one of you.
Speaker 2: Jack Coles who says different, But that's the game. Whether
Speaker 2: it's globalization or industrialization or now artificial intelligence, the way
Speaker 2: of life that you are accustomed to is no match
Speaker 2: for the promise of more profits and new markets.
Speaker 1: Which sounds brutal if you're a human, But at least
Speaker 1: those other disruptions took.
Speaker 2: Place over a century or decades. AI is going to
Speaker 2: be ready to take over by Thursday. And once that happens,
Speaker 2: what the is there left for the rest of us
Speaker 2: to do?
Speaker 1: Time is not a terrible thing.
Speaker 2: AI freeing us up to think about things at a
Speaker 2: higher level, it's gonna help.
Speaker 1: It's going to give us our time back.
Speaker 4: We'll be able to express ourselves in new creative ways.
Speaker 1: You know he's right, I'm thinking of that's all wrong.
Speaker 2: It's not joblessness, it's self actualizing me time, I'll live
Speaker 2: the artist's life it'll give me more time to explore
Speaker 2: my passions. You know, I'm an aging suburban dad. I'll
Speaker 2: learn to play the drums.
Speaker 1: You know, music Ta ta tinky tar. Music is what
Speaker 1: makes us human.
Speaker 10: From the Russian takeover of Ukraine to the technology that
Speaker 10: could take over the entire world. I'm talking about artificial intelligence.
Speaker 10: It's the thing scientists are working on so that one
Speaker 10: day our computers won't just know what kind of poem
Speaker 10: we want watch, they'll also be able to judge us
Speaker 10: for it. An AI has come a long way in
Speaker 10: the past few years, but now an engineer at Google
Speaker 10: is saying that AI has come a lot further than
Speaker 10: we think.
Speaker 15: An engineer with Google says the company is artificial intelligence
Speaker 15: generator is self aware.
Speaker 16: Mike lamoy and told the company that he thinks it's
Speaker 16: AI chatbot is a person who has rights and might
Speaker 16: have a soul.
Speaker 15: The software engineer who made the claim was put on
Speaker 15: leave for violating Google's confidentiality policy after handing documents to
Speaker 15: a US senator's office. Despite the claim the program is conscious,
Speaker 15: Google says the technology still has a long way to go.
Speaker 15: Tech experts say the AI can imitate intelligence by recreating patterns,
Speaker 15: but still can't think or act on its own apart
Speaker 15: from its programming.
Speaker 10: Okay, I don't work at Google, and I'm not a
Speaker 10: computer scientist, but I have watched a lot of movies,
Speaker 10: and if there's one thing I've learned from movies, it's
Speaker 10: that if a scientist comes out saying that something crazy
Speaker 10: is happening back in the lab, and then they get
Speaker 10: fired for it, there's something crazy happening back in the lab,
Speaker 10: Because yeah, apparently Google has an AI that can hold
Speaker 10: a conversation that is impossible to distinguish from a human. Although,
Speaker 10: to be honest, I'm not sure that responding to questions
Speaker 10: is really the best way to tell if AI has
Speaker 10: become a real person, like you Know, what I'll be
Speaker 10: convinced is when it stops responding for weeks and then
Speaker 10: only gets back in touch with you when it needs
Speaker 10: a favor. Yeah, then, all though it's human, it has learned.
Speaker 10: And honestly, I'm not sure who to side within this debate,
Speaker 10: because on the one hand, you have the engineer who
Speaker 10: says that the computer has a soul, which definitely makes
Speaker 10: me think he's already had sex with it. On the
Speaker 10: other hand, the company says he's wrong. All I know
Speaker 10: is we have to be careful when we're creating these
Speaker 10: things people, because we're basically playing God here, and even
Speaker 10: God made a few mistakes.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean, have you seen a sloth? What are
Speaker 8: they doing with those long ass sharp clause? What are
Speaker 8: they using them for?
Speaker 10: They're so cute and they're slow, And then he gave
Speaker 10: them Freddy Krueger hands. I can tell you that day
Speaker 10: God was texting on his phone when he was doing that.
Speaker 12: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Ah, And here's my question. If Google does have this
Speaker 10: AI technology, why is it still using a crappy version
Speaker 10: for all of its suggested responses in Gmail?
Speaker 8: You guys know what I'm talking about, right, every option
Speaker 8: on your email is like, sounds good. Thanks for letting
Speaker 8: me know.
Speaker 5: It doesn't matter what the email is.
Speaker 10: I could get an email from my doctor telling me
Speaker 10: that my intestineons are growing teeth, and Gmail suggested the
Speaker 10: response will be like, Okay, thanks, let's plan that for
Speaker 10: next week. I don't know, man, I just think, you know,
Speaker 10: we need to be careful with sciences these days, like
Speaker 10: we didn't listen when the COVID science has warned us.
Speaker 10: I'm not gonna make that mistake again. Now on, I'm
Speaker 10: treating all of my gadgets with love and respect.
Speaker 8: I'll start it right now.
Speaker 5: Hey, Suri, how can I help you?
Speaker 1: Travor?
Speaker 10: No, Suri, how can I help you?
Speaker 11: You ever play that game where you ask what if
Speaker 11: you could have dinner with anyone in history?
Speaker 4: Personally?
Speaker 11: For me, it would be Jesus because my mother is watching.
Speaker 5: Well. The good news is.
Speaker 11: AI is making this fantasy happen. The bad news is
Speaker 11: there's one name on the invite list that probably shouldn't
Speaker 11: be there.
Speaker 7: Meantime, tonight, the new AI app, intended to create interest
Speaker 7: in history, is instead causing controversy. Historical Figures Chat was
Speaker 7: created by an Amazon software engineer.
Speaker 1: It allows users to.
Speaker 7: Select historical figures and have a conversation with an AI pretending.
Speaker 1: To be them. People have been chatting with figures.
Speaker 7: Like Jesus, Babe, Ruth, and now Adolph Hitler. Activists worry
Speaker 7: Hitler's edition will attract and encourage neo Nazis.
Speaker 11: Why would anyone make an AI Hitler? That's the last
Speaker 11: thing we need, and we already have in that where
Speaker 11: you can hear Hitler's unsensored views.
Speaker 1: It's called Twitter.
Speaker 11: And look parents are already worried about what their kids
Speaker 11: are doing online. Now they'll be knocking on their kids
Speaker 11: bedroom door, like Jeremy, you better not be in there
Speaker 11: talking to Hitler.
Speaker 17: All right, let's kick things off with a big update
Speaker 17: on artificial intelligence. If you're one of those people who's
Speaker 17: worried that AI is getting too smart too fast, you
Speaker 17: might want to tell Alexa to turn your TV off.
Speaker 17: Artificial intelligence has just got more real.
Speaker 18: Artificial intelligence taking a dizzying leap forward. Open ai, the
Speaker 18: company behind chat GPT, which came on the scene just
Speaker 18: four months ago, out with its latest innovation, GPT four.
Speaker 19: It can summarize articles, craft jokes, and even decipher images.
Speaker 20: For example, it can tell us that if the strings
Speaker 20: in this image were cut, the balloons would fly away.
Speaker 18: After scanning a picture of what's in your cupboard or fridge,
Speaker 18: it can serve up options for a recipe.
Speaker 20: The previous version of chat GPT had about a ten
Speaker 20: percent chance of passing the bar exam for lawyers. This
Speaker 20: new version that's being introduced today has about a ninety
Speaker 20: percent chance of passing the bar.
Speaker 17: Hear that hear that in four months this thing went
Speaker 17: from being born to acing the bar exam. Well, can
Speaker 17: your dumbass four month old game?
Speaker 1: Oh just see that?
Speaker 17: Oh he looked at me in the eyes and rolled over.
Speaker 1: I worked in the White House.
Speaker 17: And keep in mind the bar exam isn't just a
Speaker 17: multiple choice test. Okay, you have to write essays, you
Speaker 17: have to know case law, and you have to learn
Speaker 17: how to be smug when you say, oh, yeah, I
Speaker 17: went to a law school in New Haven. The point
Speaker 17: is this thing is learning fast. Once it figures out
Speaker 17: how to get drunk and grope someone, it'll be qualified
Speaker 17: for the Supreme Court. And the other big update with
Speaker 17: this new version is that it can analyze images like
Speaker 17: a photo of what's in your fridge. I don't want
Speaker 17: that you have too many candy bars, alerting Michelle Obama.
Speaker 17: The big picture here is that AI is gonna do
Speaker 17: so many things so well that at some point it's
Speaker 17: gonna put a huge amount of people out of work.
Speaker 17: So what do we do. I have two ideas. One,
Speaker 17: implement universal basic.
Speaker 12: Income, there you go.
Speaker 17: Or two and hear me out here, we let the
Speaker 17: machines eat all the surplus people. No, okay, yeah, less popular,
Speaker 17: I can tell find it.
Speaker 21: Let's move on to a big story about artificial intelligence.
Speaker 21: I know everyone's scared of it, but you know what,
Speaker 21: I think AI has gotten a bad rap.
Speaker 5: No, no, seriously.
Speaker 21: In fact, if you can show me that any actual
Speaker 21: experts in technology, I'm worried that AI is going to
Speaker 21: take over the world, I'll shave my pubes this morning.
Speaker 16: A warning from Elon Musk and other tech industry experts
Speaker 16: about the power of artificial intelligence. Musk and hundreds of
Speaker 16: influential names, including Apple co founder Steve Wolsniak, are calling
Speaker 16: for a pause and experiments, saying AI poses a dramatic
Speaker 16: risk to society unless there's proper oversight. Tech industry leaders
Speaker 16: pose these existential questions. Should we develop non human minds
Speaker 16: that might eventually outnumber, out smart, obsolete, and replace us?
Speaker 16: Should we risk loss of control of our civilization? Musk
Speaker 16: and others are asking developers to stop the training of
Speaker 16: AI systems more powerful than GPT four for at least
Speaker 16: six months so that safety protocols can be established.
Speaker 21: I got to stop making these stupid promises before I
Speaker 21: go to news clips.
Speaker 5: But yes, that's right.
Speaker 21: AI is getting too powerful as soon as it knows
Speaker 21: how to pick which of these images is a bike.
Speaker 1: We're full.
Speaker 21: Now for more on ais threat to you manity, we
Speaker 21: go live to chat GPT headquarters, where Desi Lyidick is
Speaker 21: joining us. Wow, Wow, doie.
Speaker 5: Why does it look like you're dressed for a war?
Speaker 22: Because I am dressed for a war, and also there
Speaker 22: was a sale at Dick's Sporting goods, but mostly the
Speaker 22: war thing. Look, it is us versus the machines, and
Speaker 22: it's time to pick a.
Speaker 5: Side, Desi does it? Why are you so eager to
Speaker 5: go to war with Ai?
Speaker 22: Come on, John, war with the machines is inevitable, so
Speaker 22: let's do it now while it's still a chat bot,
Speaker 22: instead of waiting until it's a bloodthirsty kill bot.
Speaker 8: Look.
Speaker 22: If there's one thing that I learned from working at
Speaker 22: Chuck E Cheese, it's a lot easier to fight a
Speaker 22: child than it is an adult.
Speaker 1: I don't know, I.
Speaker 21: Don't know, Dosi, war with AI sounds like a really
Speaker 21: bad idea.
Speaker 22: Oh way, war with AI would give humanity a common purpose.
Speaker 22: We are so divided right now, Russia versus Ukraine, Democrats
Speaker 22: versus Republicans, Selena Gomez fans versus Hailey Bieber fans. But
Speaker 22: now it's us versus the machines versus Haley Bieber fans.
Speaker 21: Hey, DESI, but AI is getting more powerful by the day.
Speaker 21: What if we start this war then immediately lose it.
Speaker 22: I'm pretty sure you never lose a war that you start.
Speaker 22: But if we do, then we're going on together. John,
Speaker 22: you and me in a bunker with two cyanide pills.
Speaker 22: I take them both and you strangle yourself with your
Speaker 22: bare hands.
Speaker 5: Oh come on, couldn't I have one of those cyanide pills?
Speaker 1: Oh no, it was my idea.
Speaker 22: I get them both.
Speaker 21: Come on, DESI, you're getting ahead of yourself. For all
Speaker 21: we know, AI could lead human into like a new
Speaker 21: Golden Age or something.
Speaker 1: Oh sweet, John.
Speaker 22: Sweet, naive publiss, John Lewis.
Speaker 5: Take it from me.
Speaker 22: Humans and robots can never coexist. It's like I said
Speaker 22: to my manager at Chuck E Cheese. I'd rather die
Speaker 22: on my feet than live one more day in this
Speaker 22: animatronic healthscape. So clean the piss out of the ball
Speaker 22: pit yourself, Doug.
Speaker 5: I quit, DESI. Like everybody's.
Speaker 4: Every day people are using AI for groundbreaking things like
Speaker 4: cheating on their homework or drawing them on a Lisa
Speaker 4: with giant boobs, but how researchers are using it to
Speaker 4: unlock ancient human mysteries.
Speaker 23: Artificial intelligence, or AI, is allowing researchers at the University
Speaker 23: of Kentucky to read an ancient scroll burned by moult Vesuvius. Now,
Speaker 23: scrolls are too fragile to unfurl, but UK's doctor Brent
Speaker 23: Seals and his team of researchers have develop technology to
Speaker 23: try and read what's on the scrolls without opening them.
Speaker 23: One word that's already been deciphered is purple, but a
Speaker 23: more recent discovery has given scientists more to translate.
Speaker 1: Wow, purple.
Speaker 4: I mean I was hoping for ancient wisdom or like
Speaker 4: how to summon a demon? But yeah, you know, mixing
Speaker 4: red and blue is cool too, I guess. Although if
Speaker 4: we can't read the scroll ourselves, how do we know
Speaker 4: if the AI is right? Well, we're just gonna trust
Speaker 4: it because Chad GBT told me three days ago that
Speaker 4: gotten the invented the cinnamon challenge. So anyway, it's also
Speaker 4: a waste of time because I already know what's gonna
Speaker 4: be on that scroll. Okay, it's gonna be someone writing,
Speaker 4: hey should hold that volcano doesn't kill everyone in Town Purple.
Speaker 24: Yeah, I mean, do we want to know what ancient
Speaker 24: people have to say? We always think it's going to
Speaker 24: be something profound, but it's always just it's human.
Speaker 1: It's gonna be something racist, don't you think.
Speaker 5: I mean, think about how racist.
Speaker 24: Your grandpa was sixty years old and you imagine that
Speaker 24: he was just two thousand years older.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I don't want to read someone's two thousand old old tweets.
Speaker 4: And I agree also, like what are we looking for
Speaker 4: in there?
Speaker 1: What kind of wisdom?
Speaker 4: How smock can these people be? Like they put the
Speaker 4: most important documents next to a volcano, that's.
Speaker 24: True, and they say it's too delicate to unravel. Well,
Speaker 24: how do you know if you tried to unravel it?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Good point, Yeah, little bit, Just pick the least important
Speaker 4: looking one and open it.
Speaker 5: Open the scroll, Open.
Speaker 4: The scroll, open the scroll, open the scroll.
Speaker 5: Oh putting the scroll, Oh the stroll. Oh, bend the scroll.
Speaker 5: Oh putting the scroll. Let's move on the scroll.
Speaker 25: Let's talk about artificial intelligence. We all know AI is
Speaker 25: coming for our jobs, but we didn't know what was
Speaker 25: coming for our hearts too.
Speaker 26: An AI girlfriend service has stopped working after Forever Voices
Speaker 26: founder John Meyer was arrested on suspicion of attempting to
Speaker 26: set his own apartment on fire. Unsurprisingly, users were angry
Speaker 26: and disappointed at the sudden disappearance of their AI girlfriends.
Speaker 26: While the service was not originally designed to function as
Speaker 26: an adult service, Internet users quickly began having sexual conversations
Speaker 26: with the chatbots, resulting in an AI that became increasingly erotic.
Speaker 26: It's unclear whether users can expect the service to return
Speaker 26: to operation in the future.
Speaker 25: Hold up, Hold up, So a bunch of dudes lost
Speaker 25: their AI girlfriends when the owner of the company set
Speaker 25: his own apartment on fire. How can you trust him
Speaker 25: with humanity's newest invention when he can't handle Humanity's first invention?
Speaker 25: But this guy gets arrested, and suddenly the AI girlfriend
Speaker 25: stops responding, hmm, that's suspicious, Alexi, don't stop from Jeff
Speaker 25: Bezos takes a nap. Makes me think he was the
Speaker 25: girlfriends the whole town, and I feel bad for those guys.
Speaker 25: Having an AI girlfriend has to be harder than having
Speaker 25: a real girlfriend. Being romantic must be a challenge. You
Speaker 25: try to take a sexy bubble bath with your laptop,
Speaker 25: and now you're both dead, or how do.
Speaker 12: You even get her in the mood?
Speaker 25: Whenever she gets wet?
Speaker 8: You have to put her in.
Speaker 5: Rice, y'all nasty?
Speaker 1: See you're nasty dude.
Speaker 25: All right, for more, noalystens on this AI girlfriend tragedy.
Speaker 5: Let's go line to Ronnie Jay.
Speaker 25: All those lonely guys gonna do without their AI girlfriend?
Speaker 8: Easy?
Speaker 4: Don't say we can solve two problems at once here. Okay,
Speaker 4: you just take those lonely guys and hire them to
Speaker 4: be the checkout cashiers.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 4: That way, we all get better service, and these guys
Speaker 4: will have plenty of chances to meet women, because, as
Speaker 4: we all know, women be shopping.
Speaker 25: That's an offensive stereotype running everyone be shopping. And even
Speaker 25: if these men meet a woman, they still don't know
Speaker 25: how to talk to one. That's why they need these
Speaker 25: computer bitches in the first place.
Speaker 4: Okay, look, if these guys love AI women so much,
Speaker 4: in that case, they can just date the self checkout
Speaker 4: machine all right. Look, the machines already have female voices, right, Like,
Speaker 4: who doesn't want to spend a cold winter's night cuddled
Speaker 4: up hearing someone whisper? Please return your items to the
Speaker 4: bagging area.
Speaker 25: I just think we gotta do something as trak AI
Speaker 25: girlfriends to these lonely sexist men before they start on
Speaker 25: the capitol.
Speaker 26: Again.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's fair. But what you have to understand is
Speaker 4: it's very complicated to program an AI girlfriend, okay, because
Speaker 4: men are too demanding and insecure. Like the AI girlfriend
Speaker 4: has to be smart but not too smart. It has
Speaker 4: to know everything about Star Wars but still listen to
Speaker 4: the guy explained star Wars. It has to be like
Speaker 4: a dirty slot but also a virgin like in programming.
Speaker 4: We call this the in cell paradox.
Speaker 1: All right.
Speaker 4: Now, scientists are working hard to solve it, but unfortunately
Speaker 4: they are also a bunch of loser in cells. And
Speaker 4: this is why we need more women in STEM. Okay,
Speaker 4: because somebody please, somebody please these guys. All right, I
Speaker 4: agree those guys.
Speaker 25: I never realized being an AI girlfriend was so complicated.
Speaker 4: Yes, but the good news is an AI boyfriend is
Speaker 4: very doable, all right. In fact, I already have my
Speaker 4: own AI boyfriend's startup. We have hundreds of clients. It's
Speaker 4: very successful.
Speaker 1: I'm a rich man.
Speaker 25: I didn't know you knew how to program AI software.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, yeah, it was easy, no matter what the
Speaker 4: girlfriend says the AI boyfriend just responds with three things.
Speaker 4: You're right, I'm sorry, and you're right to be mad, Ronnie.
Speaker 25: The idea that a woman only needs to hear three
Speaker 25: things is ridiculous.
Speaker 4: You're right, I'm sorry, and you're right to be made.
Speaker 10: Over the past few months, you've probably seen the Internet
Speaker 10: has been a buzz with original arts or realistic images
Speaker 10: that are completely generated by AI.
Speaker 8: So now things that only exist in.
Speaker 10: Your imagination, like a banana hitch hiking on the side
Speaker 10: of the road or a Knix player holding a trophy,
Speaker 10: you can.
Speaker 19: Just type it in and a few seconds later, there
Speaker 19: it is. Anyway, we wanted to find out more about
Speaker 19: this technology, which is why my first guest is the
Speaker 19: chief technology officer of open Ai, the company behind Dolly,
Speaker 19: to the artificial intelligence system that can generate images from text.
Speaker 3: Dolly was created by training a neural network on images
Speaker 3: and their text descriptions through deep learning. It not only
Speaker 3: understands individual objects like walla bears and motorcycles, but learns
Speaker 3: from relationships between us and when you ask Dolly for
Speaker 3: an image of a Kuala bear riding a motorcycle and
Speaker 3: knows how to create that or anything else with a
Speaker 3: relationship to another object or action.
Speaker 27: Please welcome Miramrati, Mira Maratti, Welcome to the data show.
Speaker 12: Thank you for having me.
Speaker 10: So many people have seen the images that Dali creates.
Speaker 10: Many people may even think they understand it. But let's
Speaker 10: get into it. Like, how does an AI create an image?
Speaker 10: Because it's not copying the image, it's not, you know,
Speaker 10: taking from something else. It is creating an image from nothing.
Speaker 10: How is it doing this exactly?
Speaker 6: It's an original image never seen before.
Speaker 12: And you know.
Speaker 6: We have been making images since the beginning of time,
Speaker 6: and we simply took a great of these images and
Speaker 6: we fed them into this AI system, and it learned
Speaker 6: this relationship between the description of the image and the
Speaker 6: image itself. It learned these patterns and eventually it was
Speaker 6: generating images that were original.
Speaker 12: They were not copies of what it had seen before.
Speaker 6: And basically, the way that it learns the magic is
Speaker 6: just understanding the patterns and analyzing the patterns between a
Speaker 6: lot of information, a lot of training data that we
Speaker 6: have fed into this system.
Speaker 8: There are people who are terrified about this.
Speaker 10: I mean, for instance, there was an art competition and
Speaker 10: the winner in the art competition used a version of
Speaker 10: this kind of software. Whether it was Daghy or not,
Speaker 10: I don't remember, but they used a version of this
Speaker 10: kind of software to create an art piece that won
Speaker 10: the competition. Artists were lived, you know, they were like, well,
Speaker 10: this is not art. It was created by and not
Speaker 10: just said no, the same way you use a brush,
Speaker 10: I use a computer and that's how I designed this.
Speaker 10: In creating AI, are you constantly grappling with how it
Speaker 10: will affect people's jobs and what people even consider a job.
Speaker 12: Yeah, that's that's a great question.
Speaker 6: It's you know, the technology that we're building has such
Speaker 6: a huge effect on society, but also the society can
Speaker 6: and should shape it. And there are a ton of
Speaker 6: questions that we're wrestling with every day. With the technologies
Speaker 6: that we have today, like JPT three and DALLY, we
Speaker 6: see them as tools, so an extension of our creativity
Speaker 6: or our writing abilities.
Speaker 12: It's a tool.
Speaker 6: And you know, there isn't anything particularly new about having
Speaker 6: human helper you know, even the ancient Greeks had this
Speaker 6: concept of human helpers. You know that when you'd give something,
Speaker 6: you know, infinite powers of knowledge or strength or someone,
Speaker 6: maybe you had to be wary of the vulnerabilities, and
Speaker 6: so these concer extending the human abilities and also being
Speaker 6: aware of the vulnerabilities are timeless and in a sense
Speaker 6: we're continuing this conversation by building AI technologies today.
Speaker 10: Well it might it might be frightening because some people go, oh,
Speaker 10: the world is going to end because of this.
Speaker 8: Technology, But in the meantime, it's very fun.
Speaker 10: I'm not gonna lie no, because because it's like, you know, Dolly,
Speaker 10: for instance, doesn't just create an image from text. You know,
Speaker 10: you've you've also gotten to the point now where as
Speaker 10: a company, you've designed it so that it can imagine
Speaker 10: what an image would be. So for instance, there's there's
Speaker 10: that there's that famous image. You know, it's it's the
Speaker 10: girl with the pearl earring, and it's a it's a
Speaker 10: famous image, right. But what Dali can do is you've
Speaker 10: got the famous image and then Dolly can expand that
Speaker 10: that all.
Speaker 8: Of these everything you've seen that never existed.
Speaker 10: So Dolli's like, well, this is what I think it
Speaker 10: would look like if there was more to this image.
Speaker 10: It can it can assume, it can create, it can
Speaker 10: it can inspire.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it can fire, and it makes this beautiful Sometimes
Speaker 6: touching sometimes funny images, and it's really just an extension
Speaker 6: of your imagination. There isn't even a chemist, or the
Speaker 6: boundaries of paper are not there anymore.
Speaker 8: How do you safeguard them?
Speaker 10: You know, someone might look at this technology and go well,
Speaker 10: then you know, you could type in a politician was
Speaker 10: caught doing something here.
Speaker 8: Now I've got the image. You know you've.
Speaker 10: Got, and now all the politicians can say, oh, that's
Speaker 10: not me, it was made by that fake program. We
Speaker 10: can very quickly find ourselves in a world where nothing
Speaker 10: is real and everything that's real isn't and we question it.
Speaker 10: How do you prevent or can you even prevent that completely?
Speaker 6: Yeah, you know, misinformation and the societal impact of our technologies.
Speaker 6: These are very important and difficult questions, and I think
Speaker 6: it's very important to be able to bring the public along,
Speaker 6: bring these technologies in the public consciousness, but in a
Speaker 6: way that responsible and safe. And that's why we have
Speaker 6: chosen to make daily available, but with certain guardrails and
Speaker 6: with certain constraints, because we do want people to understand
Speaker 6: what AI is capable of, and we want people in
Speaker 6: various fields to think.
Speaker 12: About what it means.
Speaker 6: But right now, you know, we don't feel very comfortable
Speaker 6: around mitigations on misinformation, and so we do have some guardrails.
Speaker 6: For example, we do not allow generation of public figures,
Speaker 6: so we will go in the data set and we
Speaker 6: will eliminate so.
Speaker 10: If you type something in you can't pull up it
Speaker 10: can't create a politician for you.
Speaker 8: It won't be a picture of that person.
Speaker 6: So that's the first step at the training of the
Speaker 6: model itself, just looking at the data and auditing it,
Speaker 6: making interventions in the data sets to avoid certain outcomes.
Speaker 6: And then later in the deployment stage, we will look
Speaker 6: at filters, applying filters so that when you put in
Speaker 6: a prompt it's want generate things that contain violence or
Speaker 6: hate and make it more in line with our content policy.
Speaker 8: Wow, so let me ask you this.
Speaker 10: Then, you know, obviously part of your team has to
Speaker 10: think about the ethical ramifications of the technology.
Speaker 8: That you're creating.
Speaker 10: Do your team also then think about the greater meaning
Speaker 10: of work or life or the purpose that humans have
Speaker 10: because you know, most of us define ourselves by what
Speaker 10: we do.
Speaker 6: I e.
Speaker 8: Our jobs.
Speaker 10: As AI slowly takes away what people's jobs are, will
Speaker 10: find the growing class of people who don't have that
Speaker 10: same purpose anymore. Do you then also have to think
Speaker 10: about that and wonder, like, what does it mean to
Speaker 10: be human if it's not my job?
Speaker 8: And can you tell me what that is?
Speaker 6: You know, we we have philosophers and as a sist
Speaker 6: at open AI, and but I really think these are
Speaker 6: big societal questions that you know, shouldn't even be in
Speaker 6: the hands of technologists alone.
Speaker 12: We're certainly thinking about them.
Speaker 6: And I you know, the tools that we see today,
Speaker 6: they're not the tools that are automating certain aspects of
Speaker 6: our jobs. They're really tools extending our capabilities, our inherent abilities,
Speaker 6: and making them far better. But it could be that
Speaker 6: in far future, you know, we have these systems that
Speaker 6: can automate a lot of a lot of different jobs.
Speaker 6: I do think that, as with other revolutions that we've
Speaker 6: we've we've gone through, there will be new jobs and
Speaker 6: some jobs will be lost, some jobs will will be new,
Speaker 6: and there will be some retraining required as well.
Speaker 12: But I'm optimistic.
Speaker 10: It's it's it's interesting, it's scary, because change always is.
Speaker 10: But you know, as long as we have blessed you,
Speaker 10: as long as we have as long as we have
Speaker 10: koalas riding bicycles.
Speaker 8: I think I think we head in the right direction.
Speaker 8: Thank you so much for joining me on the show.
