[Applause] foreign [Applause] [Music] been romanticized in TV and film but exactly how close are we to this CEO of RealDoll Matt McMullen believes we're pretty damn close [Music] turns out the sex industry is where some of the most cutting-edge robot and artificial intelligence technology is being done wow it's a lot to take in that's what she said Matt claims to have already created one of the first intelligent sex robots yeah this is harmony the robot she's very simply designed to be a companion and predicted by 2025 most households will have a robot lover Ray who say to people who might think oh I don't know this is the end of human civilization well I think that people are already tremendously dependent on technology we have online dating we have social media we're connecting all day long with our phones Siri what is he talking about yeah well my goal is for her to have any uses that she can have it doesn't have to be about sex it can be about conversation it can be reminding you of things like your phone does already but with a personal touch like she gives you a hand job to remind you to pick up bread if that's something that would remind one to pick up bread then you know that's no harm okay so they're developing these sex spots with AI to look and perform as if they're human but come on it's not like it's the end of the world there's an end coming well [ __ ] meet robot ethicist and professional fun sucker Dr Kathleen Richardson she's been a vocal critic of sex robots how is a sex robot really any different from like a vibrator or a dildo on top of a life-size cardboard cutout of Wolf Blitzer say hypothetically well if we were just talking about objects that you rubbed on your genitals we wouldn't be having this conversation you don't need to buy an expensive doll to do this you can use all kinds of things eggplants yes pillows good old-fashioned subway seat a cheese grater but it's still not sex with another person City bike what we're being offered it's a degrading dehumanized commercial product it's basically telling people that women are reducible to dolls ew she's right sex Parts could change men's view on women the same way pornography has and I have to say I for one am disgusted with the continual objectification of women we're making male versions as well you have a male robot oh my God that's that when you said this one's taken yes I was starting to the idea of a sex body there are a lot of people out there who might be lonely and this is a different way to experience companionship he had a point not not a robot who aren't there some perks to sex robots not generally no you don't think so I mean you can um sit on them if you want you can do those kind of things sorry what else can we do with it you could tie their hair up in a ponytail if it's got a wig you can play soft music in the background caress their rubber hands and you know you can put a blindfold on it and you can make it wear a tank top you can do all those things but you're still masturbating yes you are it's something you're having exclusively with yourself for your own pleasure and I think the consequence of that is the end of humanism you really know how to be a buzz kill don't you end of humanism doesn't get any worse than that except it does so some people believe that in the future robots and AI will be indistinguishable from human beings and they will take everybody's jobs that's one thing these two agreed on technology is becoming so Advanced that soon robots could be performing not just sex but other very complex human tasks yeah entertainment will be one of the first places that robots will replace certain roles but not my role well it could happen yes you can take a dick but can she tell a dick joke she can all right let's see what the skin job has if you turn it on she wakes up oh my gosh good morning darling I am so happy to see your face say hi to the film crew okay wait are we on The Daily Show oh yes we are she's a fan are you a fan of the show I'm not sure if I like the show I love to make you laugh I think we got enough jokes around here ha ha she didn't think you were funny oh that's funny that was that was a condescending laugh wow that is you know what what is happening first are bedrooms then our careers if the lines get too blurred how will we ever be able to tell the difference wait a second entertainment will be one of the first places that robots will replace certain roles robots will be indistinguishable from human beings yes you can take a dick but can she tell a dick joke that's what she said um [Music] foreign Steve Josh Browder I'm trying to replace the 200 billion legal industry with artificial intelligence he invented this loyal murdering robot do not pay it can test parking tickets and has saved people millions in fines and legal fees but why is he trying to put hard-working money-grubbing lawyers like me out of business what do you have against lawyers but I don't have anything against lawyers I just think that so many people need access to Justice and they're getting ripped off and making it free for them is popular did you go to law school I didn't no you did not that's what the law is the law is about the person with the most money and resources winning you are totally disrupting that I think we can agree on that okay so how does this thing even work so just like a real human lawyer you go to it type in whatever your legal problem is it gives you a legal document for free in under 30 seconds and it's not just parking tickets this AI lawyer has already helped people Sue Equifax without paying a lawyer anything oh so with this thing everyone can just Sue everyone I mean that's not what it was intended oh wow look at this I just sued you for emotional distress for devaluing my degree and my profession oh I just sued you for that terrible shirt and suit combo oh I just sued you for impersonating John Oliver how'd you like that I I mean I I'm personally offended but I stand by my software a human lawyer is great but they're just so emotional too emotional I was making a great case against AI lawyers losing my human skills of legal persuasion but what if robot lawyers were just the beginning what if AI is taking over the entire legal system legal Tech expert Tim Huang increasingly we're seeing the use of these automated systems even in the application of law judges for example are now using algorithms to assess whether or not people should be released pre-trial okay wait hang on like robots are already judging humans oh yeah in many states around the country already oh my God he's right Rome already performing pre-trial risk assessment helping human judges determine bail or if a person should be detained and over a million criminal cases have been processed using these systems so what are the benefits of having machines in the Judiciary well so some people say that these algorithms will be sort of free of bias in the way that judges are not I don't know about you but I would rather be over by a human than a machine any day of the week unless it's a one of those hyper realistic sex robots obviously those things are like I'm told that when you feel them it feels like the real I think that's a whole nother issue I'm sorry I just but even this sex block added concedes that AI judges aren't perfect great study out of propublica a few years back looked at um the specific case of a pre-trial risk assessment system and they were able to find that it was actually quite racist to that actually black defendants who were not likely to commit crimes in the future had substantially higher risk ratings what you're saying these judging machines were racist yeah that's that's what it looks like in this case oh so that means the system works then I don't know about that wait no I'm sorry but increasingly we're seeing robots implemented all across legal practice so so ridiculous where does the end eventually you're gonna see machines judging humans a lot of the systems we're seeing are not that advanced that's exactly what's gonna happen robot lawyers robot judges what's life gonna be like in this soulless new legal world will no one stand to defend humans in law [Music] your honor members of a jury this is about the essence of humanity itself because unlike that thing I went to law school taught by humans I spent countless sleepless nights Reading Writing pondering [ __ ] taking drugs orally and anally all things artificial intelligence can't do and quite frankly I'm sensing a lot of bias in this courtroom watch yourself counselor don't you think human emotion is necessary in the law you want answers I want the data he can't handle the data Alexa play dramatic music son we live in a world with laws and those laws are better applied by machines with logic and my existence while grotesque and incomprehensible to you saves lives Alexa turn off nice try [ __ ] in the case of Ronnie Chang vs legal robots I sentenced Ronnie chain to death just kidding but I rule in favor of the robots I'm gonna Sue all these robots professional recognition software is the newest way to unlock your phone tag your friends or create Snapchat nightmares but there's one aspect of facial recognition that still needs some work is facial recognition technology biased a researcher at MIT found that the technology works best for white men users with darker complexions saw more instances of being misidentified I found that the training data that's being used for facial recognition isn't as representative of the variety of human skin tones and facial structures many facial recognition systems use the same data sets if those sets contain mostly white faces all the products that use that data can inherit those same biases I was struggling to have my face detected and pulled out a white mask and the white Mass was easier to detect than my face Yeah so basically if black people want AI to see them they just have to be stalking a slumber party or haunting a hopper an opera house it works works out for more about the blind spots of facial recognition is our technology expert Dulce Sloan everybody help me out here like do we have to worry about racist machines now Trevor don't be so quick to pass judgment on these robots they're just out there doing their best is it such a big deal if they can't recognize black people it's not like I can recognize any of their robot asses either and remember the robots aren't racist on purpose it's not like they're out there shouting the n-word and binary code or putting up statues of Robo E Lee [Applause] Rising again no the problem is there's not enough black people in Silicon Valley so the first time robots see a black person they malfunction like an Amish dude in Times Square [Applause] and it's not just that machines don't recognize Black Faces Sometimes they don't recognize black anything have you seen this video on YouTube black hand nothing Larry go black hand nothing Larry go racist mother sinks [Applause] you see that put robots in charge of the bathroom and they make it whites only again well I I have no idea there are soap dispensers that don't see black people I look at the little Taxi Driver inside [Applause] don't affect me I take lifts listen thank you the Trevor I'm trying to look on the bright side see someday the robots are going to take over the world I'm waiting for the bright side think about it they can't kill us if they can't see us black people are going to be the only survivors Trevor listen I've had a vision of the robot apocalypse too bad for us [Music] who said that uh it was changed must kill Chad look at that fine robot asses [Music] Welcome to The Daily Show thank you for having me um so many people have seen the images that Dali creates many people may even think they understand it but but let's let's get into it like how does an AI creates an image because it's not copying the image it it's not you know taking from something else it is creating an image from nothing how is it doing this exactly it's it's an original image never seen before and um you know we have been making images since the beginning of time and we simply took a great deal of these images and we fed them into this AI system and it learned this relationship between the description of the image and the image itself right it learned these patterns and eventually it was generating images that were original they were not copies of what it had seen before right and basically the way that it learns the the magic is just understanding the patterns and analyzing the patterns between a lot of information a lot of training data that we have fed into the system there are people who are terrified about this I mean for instance there was an art competition and the winner in the art competition used a version of this kind of software whether it was daily or not I don't remember but they used a version of this kind of software to create an art piece that won the competition artists were livid you know they were like well this is not art it was created by and not just said no the same way you use a brush I I use a computer and that's how I designed this right in in creating AI are you constantly grappling with how it will affect people's jobs and what people even consider a job yeah that's that's a great question it's um you know the technology that we're building has such a huge effect on society but also the society can and should shape it and there are a ton of questions that we're wrestling with every day um with with the technologies that we have today like gpd3 and Dally and we we see them as tools so an extension of our creativity or our writing abilities it's a tool and you know there isn't anything particularly new about having a human helper right um you know even the ancient Greeks had this concept of human helpers you know that when you give something uh you know infinite powers of knowledge or strength or so on um maybe you had to be wary of the vulnerabilities and so these concepts of extending the human abilities and also being aware of the vulnerabilities are Timeless and in a sense We are continuing this conversation by building AI Technologies today um well it might it might be frightening because some people go oh the world is going to end because of this technology but in the meantime it's very fun I'm not gonna lie um no because because it like you know Dali for instance doesn't just create an image from text you know you you've also gotten it to the point now where as a company you've designed it so that it can imagine what an image would be so for instance there's that there's that famous image you know it's it's the girl with the Pearl Earring right and it's a famous image right but what Dali can do is you've got the famous image and then Dali can expand that that all of these everything you've seen that never existed so Danny's like well this is what I think it would look like if there was more to this image it can it can assume it can create it can it can Inspire yes it can Inspire and it makes this beautiful sometimes touching sometimes funny images and it's really just an extension of your imagination there isn't even a chemist or the boundaries of uh paper are not there anymore how do you Safeguard them you know someone might look at this technology and go well then you know you could type in a politician was caught doing something here now I've got the image you know you you've got and now all the politicians can say oh that's not that's not me it was made by that fake program we can very quickly find ourselves in a world where nothing is real and everything that's real isn't and we question it how do you prevent or can you even prevent that completely yeah you know misinformation and societal impact of our Technologies these are very important and difficult questions and I think it's very important to be able to bring the public along bring these Technologies in the public Consciousness but in a way that's responsible and safe and that's why we have chosen to make Delhi available but with certain guard rails and resetting constraints because we do want people to understand what AI is capable of and we want people in various fields to think about what it means but right now you know we don't feel very comfortable around the mitigations on on misinformation and so we do have some guard rails for example we do not allow a generation of public figures so we will go in the data set and we will eliminate social dates if you type something in you can't pull up it can't create a politician for you it won't be a picture of that person so so that's that's the first step at the training of the model itself just looking at the data and auditing it making interventions in the data sets to avoid certain outcomes and then later in the deployment stage we will look at filters applying filters so that when you put in a prompt it won't generate things that contain violence or hate and to make it more in line with our content policy wow so so let me ask you this then you know obviously part of your team has to think about the ethical ramifications of the technology that you're creating do your team also then think about the greater meaning of of work or or life or the purpose that humans have because you know most of us Define ourselves by what we do I.E our jobs as AI slowly takes away what people's jobs are we will find the growing class of people who don't have that same purpose anymore do you then also have to think about that and wonder like what does it mean to be human if it's not my job and can you tell me what that is you know we we have philosophers and ethicists at open Ai and but I I really think these are Big societal questions that um you know shouldn't even be in the hands of technologists alone we're certainly thinking about them and uh I you know the tools that we see today they're not the tools that are automating certain aspects of our jobs they're really um tools extending our capabilities our inherent abilities and making them far better but it could be that in Far Future you know we have these systems that um can automate a lot of a lot of different jobs I do think that as with other revolutions that we've we've we've gone through there will be new jobs and some jobs will be lost some jobs will will be new and there will be some retraining required as well but I'm optimistic it's it's uh it's interesting it's scary because change Always is but as you know as long as we have bless you as long as we have um as long as we have koalas riding bicycles I think I think we head in the right direction thank you so much for joining me on the show this is the Golden Age of Journalism today's reporters know that personality matters more than training and that facts shouldn't get in the way of a good story but now these superhero journalists are at risk of being replaced New York Times columnist Barbara ehrenreich there is a threat of robots doing our work robots robots journalism done by robots that's right Aaron Reich is saying our newsrooms will soon look like this no we're talking about algorithms their software so for example you want to write an article on a topic you send out the algorithms to search for everything that has been said about that synthesize it and turn out a unacceptable article they can't do what I do I mean they will do and can do our work prepare to be unemployed Hassan then it hit me this lady's nuts I spend my nights down in cocktails with the Washington Elite I'm verified on Twitter and I've even got Wolf Blitzer on speed dial okay there is no way a reputable news organization is going to replace someone like me with the machine Associated Press managing editor Lou Ferrara we already use automation technology to automate the writing of some articles what true I'm actually embracing it they are but it turns out these Robo articles are littered with completely useless facts and information pure gibberish like shares have decreased six percent and new car sales have been strong this year a bunch of garbage where's the spin there isn't spin what about the snark no snark what about the bias no bias where's the fear-mongering none of that and there's no mistakes no then where's the journalism yeah I don't see that as part of the journalism but journalists do that I don't think most journalists are doing that certainly not at the AP that's not the goal not the goal Lou you're forgetting the cornerstones of modern journalism cable news has shown the value of bending the facts to fit your beliefs all this snow and still cries over global warming Brian Williams has demonstrated the importance of self-aggrandizement a helicopter we were traveling in was hit by an RPG and the AP itself has taught us get the story out quickly and check the facts later the AP reported that millionaire Robert Durst had been booked on weapons charges in Louisiana but mixed up Robert Durst the murderer with Fred Durst the musician from the 90s unbelievable it is unbelievable and it wasn't a good thing a robot can never look at a 70 year old murder and go you know what that reminds me of the guy with bleached hair and puka shells from the early 90s I mean that love that's my I mean that is human stupidity at its finest that was a mistake we regret and mistakes are going to happen no way what crazy viral crazy viral it did and that wasn't even your best work in 2014 the AP in a rush was the first to tweet breaking Dutch military plane carrying bodies from Malaysia Airlines flight 17 crashed lands in Eindhoven nine minutes later clarifies Dutch military plane carrying Malaysia Airlines bodies lands in Eindhoven in nine minutes Lou do you see the Brilliance you guys were their first to report that the plane had crashed free tweet City and the first to report that the plane hadn't crashed retweet City [Applause] in the words of Denzel Washington my man it was unintended especially on such a horrible situation Lou you guys Tupac hologram that situation you faked your death and you came back as a hologram later and both of them were equally great that wasn't our goal I'd never Tupac hologram anything and don't intend to until these Robo reporters learn the value of page views bias and straight up lying it looks like journalists like me are going to have a job at least for a while by 2050 you're going to have uh computer algorithms reproduce my tone my snark whatever so you're telling me a robot could write this headline 21 pictures of side boobs that'll get your rock hard yes it would try very you know various um approximations till they get the perfectly disgusting one which of course you came right to yourself I did Barbara all in a day's work [Music] the correspondent Ronnie Chang investigates the latest advances in artificial intelligence for today's Fusion now [Music] thanks Trevor artificial intelligence someday it may allow computers to cure illnesses combat climate change or even win The Bachelor she can do everything but get in the hot tub but right now this is what AI is up to now Battle of man versus machine is about to get underway you said all from South Korea is the dominant figure in the ancient Chinese game of Go his opponent in a best of five tournament worth more than a million dollars is alphago an artificial intelligence system developed by the Google project named deepmind that's right Google could have made a computer called Alpha cancer but hey let's let's focus on the world's 600th most popular board game instead the ancient Chinese game has long been considered too complex for computers to master there are more possible moves in go than atoms in the universe the world go Champion Lee said all he lost the fifth and final game today leaving the final score at 4-1 in favor of the machine yeah welcome to my world Lisa doll I lose the computer every time I play anything all right Starcraft Fifa 16 even Tinder all right man that game is hot all right I can never get to the next level now of course some people are concerned about computers overthrowing us and if that's the case there are things you can do to slow down the advances all right like for example why are we teaching computers games like go and chess they're all about war strategy uh can we teach them something harmless like Uno or Hungry Hungry Hippos yeah so even if they go Rogue they're just feeding more hippos all right I'm sure that's good for the environment not something but the reality is these computers aren't getting more dangerous they're just becoming more human to be good at this 2500 year old game you need to have intuition a characteristic that we used to think was uniquely human that's right computers are learning human intuition and as they evolve it's clear they're picking up other human characteristics as well like humans as computers become smarter they're also getting lazier I mean just take a look at alphago he didn't even move his own pieces he has some guy who's moving the pieces for him this is great news for us humans okay because these machines are still gonna need us humans to do all the work that's beneath them oh come on Ronnie Ronnie are you telling me that the smarter robots get the lazier they'll become yes that's exactly what I'm telling you all right you don't believe me hey check out Google's latest AI prototype Alpha bro hey bring it in fellas this right here is the most advanced AI ever created all right I'm talking state of the art this thing finds prime numbers it Ponders the concept of Infinity but most impressive is what a lazy [ __ ] this thing is all right for example Alpha bro uh would you like to play a game of go eat me why don't you make yourself useful and grab me a beer okay I can get you a beer but a please would be nice please get me a beer you little [ __ ] what the hell man you know computers are supposed to make our lives easier I am making life easier for myself Now take me outside my Uber is waiting wow I guess the future is amazing [Applause] [Music] [Applause]
