(rooster crowing) (tiger growling) – Welcome to Good Mythical Morning, having experienced artificial intelligence. Can we now tell the difference between a bot and a real person? – But first let’s create a new selfie face. “Dad’s drunk and doing yard work.” (chuckles) I’m weedeatin’! – This is how you weedeat. Boy, I haven’t weedeaten in a long time, I miss it. – I think it’s weedate. – I haven’t weedate, quite awhile. Okay. So we’re going to be presented with a, is this a story? Is it an excerpt of just something? – [Woman] It’s gonna be a review, it’s going to be a review of something. And I’m going to tell you what it’s review of and then you have to decide if a human wrote the review or if AI wrote the review. – ‘Cause this is a thing, huh? Bot people? – [Woman] Well, you know, people talk about bots all the time. – Bots coming in and writing reviews of stuff. – Bots and twitter and bots. – Bots are really known for their tweets. – That’s true. – All right, let’s hear one. – [Woman] Okay. This one is a jock strap review because naturally. “This jock strap did not fit me. It was very big. I should have noticed this when I read the label before I bought it the tag said one size fits all. That was a lie.” – Well it, do bots write negative reviews? – Okay. So what you’re talking about might be a phenomenon that people will get bots to write reviews for their product. But what we’re looking at is either it was actually a review that somebody wrote for a product or the writers used a bot to write a review. – Oh, it’s not an actual review written by a bot. – Right. – [Woman] Well, I mean it is, but yes, it’s what Rhett described. – Yeah, ’cause, okay, it’s that rationale of no one would never post a negative review from a bot doesn’t hold. I think this is from a bot. It’s a bit too generic. – It is not from a bot. – The logic doesn’t hold. – [Woman] It’s a bot. – Yeah, you know, there’s not really anything being said. – (indistinct) – I should’ve known when it said- – A bot would admit that by itself. – [Woman] Okay, um, this is a five-star review for a Star Wars film. – Okay. – [Woman] “There is life before Star Wars, and life after. Whatever I am today, is because of Star Wars. The galaxy is divided into two groups, one who can understand the force, and the other who cannot. Which one do you belong to?” – I feel this way. Not as much as my daughter though. Lily could definitely have written this review. Is she a bot? I don’t know sometimes. – It feels a little too, like, appealing to something human inside you to be a bot. So I’m going with that. – That’s a good point. – [Woman] Yeah, it’s a human. – Yeah. – Yeah, that’s right- – [Woman] Yeah, Amra. – It’s appealing to something very human. – [Woman] A-M-R-A has a very bot-like name. – Five stars on Star Wars. – Yeah, of course. – Five stars on every Star Wars. – [Woman] Although you know we- – Even the prequels. – [Woman] Pulled the reviews that we thought were from humans, that might be from bots, and we don’t even know it. – That’s true. – Oh! – That’s the weird part about this. – Did you get creeped out by the AI or was that just us? Where we like reading too much into it? – [Woman] I was initially impressed and then it became more AI like as time went on, but I feel like that’s how it feels about us. – I just don’t know how people would you utilize that site? Like, I just can’t- – Like if you’re stuck in a story, you’re not going to like put your story in there and have it write more for you. – Like I don’t understand. – [Woman] You have a YouTube show. – Like, there’s that, yeah, there’s that site I’ve seen advertised, like Grammarly or something, where it’s like you’ll put something you’ve already written in there. – That makes sense. – And it’ll tell you that you’ve used these words too much. I mean, I’ve never tried it, but that makes sense. Like, Oh, here’s some synonyms and some improved grammatic structure. But I just don’t understand how anyone could actually employ the software to improve their work. – [Woman] How about a toothbrush review? – Yeah. – [Woman] “I really do not like this toothbrush. It does not work well. And I think it hurts my teeth and gums. I have never had a hard time brushing my teeth. My dentist always compliments me on my clean teeth.” – Kind of a, that’s kind of a mixed, kind of two points there that didn’t really go together. – Yeah. There was a, there’s a broken thought that only a bot could come up with. – Yeah, broken thought there. So yeah, I think it’s a bot. – [Woman] Yeah, it’s a bot. – Okay. – [Woman] ‘Cause I mean, you would know if it hurts your teeth and gums, you know? (chuckles) Stupid. – We got a long way to go. This is actually making me feel better. – [Woman] A Bible review. – Just of the Bible? – [Woman] Yeah, you know the one. – Okay, yeah. – Okay. – [Woman] “This Bible is very nice looking. The leather feels like high-quality calf skin. The pages are bound together by big staples. The font used on the inside is very nice and easy to read.” – Big staples, huh? – Nothing about the content of the Bible. Just about the construction of the Bible. – Hold on, but that makes total sense. – It does makes sense. – Because now- – ‘Cause they all say the same thing. – Before I was like, what, this is gonna like, be a review of like, the Bible story? – If you’re buying a Bible, yeah, if you’re buying a Bible- – If you’re buying a Bible, you’re like, you’re interested in like the leather, and the pages- – The staples! – Yeah, this is a good review actually. – The implication is, I’m cool with the content, but what is the leather binding look like? So this is a real review of a real person. – [Woman] Oh, it’s a bot. – It’s a bot? – Oh snap! – [Woman] ‘Cause like where would the big staples be in with the quality calf skin? – That was the part that I should have listened to. (chuckles) That was the part that was obvious. – Let’s move on. – [Woman] This is for a McDonald’s location. – Okay. – [Woman] “This spot obviously knows how to satisfy their customers regularly with a very kind mindset. The food is fairly priced, regularly, tasty and clean.” – Regularly tasty. That’s got to be a bot. – Nobody talks like that, it’s a bot. – [Woman] Oh, did you guess, Link? You kind of freeze. – Yeah, a bot. – [Woman] No, it was a human. It was actually local guide Alfonso Calderon. – Alfonso Calderon! “This spot obviously knows how to satisfy their customers, regularly with a very kind mindset.” – He likes the word “regularly”. He needs to go to Grammarly. – Regularly tasty. – He uses “regularly” too much. – This is so strange. – There’s no review about McDonald’s. Everybody knows. Everybody knows everything about McDonald’s. – [Woman] I feel like you only go to like poorly review, a McDonald’s location, like, “Do not go.” – Yeah, all fast food locations have horrible reviews. At averages on like Google or Yelp. – But if you go to McDonald’s regularly, and your regularly experience tasty things, and you regularly experience a very kind mindset, you might wanna leave a five-star review. – I bet you Alfonzo regularly leaves reviews. (chuckles) – [Woman] Okay. Guess who wrote this. “Let’s face it. We’re all wearing face masks these days so that we and those around us stay safe. So why not do it with some style and grab one of our neon face masks at mythical.com. Maybe get one for a friend or family member while you’re there.” – Yeah. It’s definitely a bot. (indistinct) getting bots to be writing our- – Plugs. – Plugs, yeah. – Yep. – [Woman] I can not confirm, but I can confirm, go to mythical.com ’cause we have awesome masks over there. – Yeah, get yourselves a mask. – [Woman] This is a Target review. – Okay. – [Woman] “This target is no Tarjay that’s for sure. It’s too small. The store is always at a standstill. That is how Tarjay is. You’ve never seen anything like it. It’s Target like nothing you’ve ever seen before.” – Okay. The Tarjay thing was a person but that last part is a bot. – Yeah, how, the bot knew that Tarjay was a thing but then it over used it. – [Woman] Yeah. – That’s nutty man. This bot, bots- – Bots go too far. – [Woman] Oh, okay, here’s a review of Twilight. – Oh yes. – [Woman] “A forbidden, dangerous, and probably ill-fated teenage romance. It must be a powerful human archetype because it never fails to draw you in. Stewart and Pattinson do a great job. I especially like Stewart’s low-key and somewhat withdrawn portrayal. It rings true to life in an unexpected way.” – [Rhett] It’s a bit understated. – [Woman] “This romance is believable, who would’ve thought.” – How does the bot know about the understated performance? I mean, that’s, that’s a nuance discretion. – Yeah, and they got, did it say, “Stewart and Pattinson” only a person would say that. – No, I think a bot would do that. Not a bot. – [Woman] Yeah this is from Dawg Bone. – Yeah dog bone. – [Woman] Dawg Bone. – “Low-key and somewhat withdrawn portrayal rings true to life in an unexpected way.” – Everything that Kirsten Stewart has ever been in she has sort of had a low-key and withdraw portrayal. – [Woman] But like, her Happiest Season that kind of totally works. – Oh, yeah, it’s when, she just played herself and sometimes it’s just like, “Oh, yeah, this is very fitting.” – I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything that she’s in except for A Room once, that I was also in. (people laughing) – [Woman] I thought you meant The Room which she was also in. – No, she’s not, she’s not in that. Is she in that? – [Woman] That’s the Jodie Foster. – Oh The Room, no The Room- – Panic Room. – [Woman And Link] Panic Room. – She’s not in The Room. – [Woman] Yep. (clears throat) The Greatest Showman! – Showman. (laughs) The Greatest Showman. – [Woman] Showman, showman. – Something tells me that you’re not into the movies. – [Woman] You know what I think it is? – You don’t have the songs memorized. – [Woman] Showman sounds like a plural of showman. – Well I was once at a dinner with some friends and- – Was I there? – No. It was one of those Thanksgivings where you went back home. – Yeah, yeah, yeah. – And I got together with friends. But it was, there was friends of friends there as well. – Yeah. We’ve heard about this party. – And then all of a sudden they start, somebody brought a karaoke machine. I don’t think I told this part. And one person stood up and started singing one of those songs from The Greatest Showman. – Showman. – And I had not seen it and I still have not seen it. And everyone except me and Jessie was very excited and singing along, and just from the bottoms of their hearts. – [Woman] But it’s a musical. – Listen, I mean, I thought it was cool and I felt like I was missing out, but I was like, man there’s a lot of passion around this musical. Any of you guys like have The Greatest Showman stuff memorized? Zach, you do? Yeah! Look, Zach, Zach’s like, “Little bit.” (laughs) – [Woman] Okay. – I have not seen it. – [Woman] “I love the plot of The Greatest Showman. (chuckles) There is a great scene where Zac Efron and Rebecca Ferguson and Zendaya performed This Is Me. I enjoyed the characters in The Greatest Showman.” – That’s a bot, man. – I think this is a real person because there’s this, there’s specific knowledge of a scene. – The bots know all the scenes. – I don’t think they do. – [Woman] It’s a bot. – Oh. – The bots watch all the movies instantly. – All right. – A bot watching a movie is very boring to watch. – [Woman] Instant underwear review. – Instant underwear? – [Woman] Instant underpants. – What is instant underpants? – How do you- – What is that? – What does that mean? – [Woman] I do not have that information. – You just add water? – [Woman] “This is terrible! Do not waste money. The underwear themselves look like a hair net with two hole. Though, I did buy as a gag gift. It was still terrible.” – This is a real person. – Sounds like a great gag gift. – This is real, this is real. – [Woman] Yeah. (indistinct) – ‘Cause you’re like buying, buying it as a gag gift. A bot doesn’t buy gag gifts. – Instant underwear, is this a net? – What is instant underwear? – I feel like I can get in a net just as, I can get in on a regular underwear just as fast as a net. You know what I’m saying? – I think it- – A net might actually take longer to get on. – It is a gag gift. I think that’s the thing. It’s a canister that- – Oh, it’s a canister. – It’s a can of underwear. – Oh I see the picture now. – Yeah, that’s what it is. – [Woman] Okay, this is your final chance. – Okay. – [Woman] This is for a zoo. “I don’t like this zoo.” – Zoo review. – [Woman] “When you go somewhere you don’t want to just see what you already have at home. – When you go somewhere you don’t want to just see what you already have at home. – [Woman] Oh, I’m sorry. I missed a word too. When you go somewhere, you don’t, oh, no I didn’t. (chuckles) – You sound like a bot. – [Woman] Well, I’m trying to read all these in a bot-y way. “I don’t like this zoo. When you go somewhere you don’t want to just see what you already have at home.” – Yeah, I agree with this one. – You go somewhere you don’t want to just see what you already have at home. Uh, not a bot. – I think it’s a bot. – It’s a person, don’t go to the zoo. – [Woman] It’s a bot. – Oh, shoot. I’ll tell you, they’re squarely, these bots. (indistinct) into a- – A foaming (indistinct), a frothing (indistinct). – A frothing, that was crazy. – (indistinct) – Started off good then it got creepy. And then where did it leave it. It’s like I got a restrained feeling. – Yeah, I feel weird. – [Narrator] Protect yourself and others around you with our mythical neon face masks available now at mythical.com.
