Episode Transcript
What do you use AI for? It's the Double Show,
send emails for you, yep, to give you recipes, to
tell you that you're dirty and you need to take
a shower as soon as you walk in the door.
Oh what, just me bro. Anyway, there's a weird new
development with AI. It's something you haven't heard of before,
and it's being developed by a former Disney Channel star.
(00:20):
Ye okay, so we'll tell you what it is right
after this. It's the Gebal Show. Just when you thought
AI couldn't get any weirder, one former Disney Channel star
is saying, hold my beer, the Jewel Show and you
have to hear what this former Disney child star has
developed and is making international headlines because of it. Former
Austin and Ali star Callum Worthy show. You know who
(00:41):
that is? So Victoria? You know? Yeah, he was the
kid that was like Loki.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
That kid did have ad D and man was running
around constantly for who knows why.
Speaker 1 (00:50):
Like every Disney show. Pretty okay. He's facing backlash after
launching an AI app called two Way that lets people
create DID versions of their dead loved ones. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (01:03):
Since the first time we've heard about this, there are
multiple companies that are allowing you to create your loved
one as an AI version of them. Why so you
can talk to them still and all these things. It's
not actually them.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
It's AI. It's still comforting to the person, but it's
not them.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
How do they like they might tell you the exact
opposite of what your grandma used to tell you, Like,
it's not actually them.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
The perhaps viral promotional video shows a pregnant woman talking
to an AI recreation of her to see some mother
who then appears throughout the child's life giving advice and support.
Speaker 3 (01:33):
They have to like, does it say how they upload
the mom you know, like how they upload the loved one? How?
Speaker 1 (01:42):
It doesn't say necessarily how they do it in the
story about it about it, But I mean, I don't
know how they do.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
It because when the other the other people that have
done it, or the other companies that are doing it
at startups have said that they are taking like audio
recordings of the person and then they're having like full
in videos if you have any even of the person,
and then they're basically recreating them. And as AI teaches you,
it's the black mirror episode in real life.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
If you've seen that when I'm talking about episode.
Speaker 3 (02:09):
But in the show they were creating her husband what
had passed or it was his wife.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
I don't remember one of the two, but yeah, doesn't that.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
But it's all AI, Like that's not like they can
completely like change, like they're teaching your children things. They're
changing the way your children's going to think, and like
it's not gonna be like Grandma used to say, it's
gonna be AI.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
I feel like it's the quickest way to get yourself haunted. No,
I'm move pretty interesting though. If you're a kid and
your you know your grandma, maybe even never knew them,
and all of a sudden they're back on your computer screen,
it would be weird.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
But then do you say, like, oh, I spend my fridays.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
With grml like maybe your computer. We're talking about a
former child star from the Disney Channel named Callum Worthy
who's launched an AI app called two Way that lets
people create digital versions of their loved ones so they
can give you support, support and advice all that kind
of stuff.
Speaker 3 (02:58):
But like, I think it would the veil a little bit.
You know how they say the veil is thin like
around Halloween. But if something like this is happening, and
you're being portrayed incorrectly, and you're on the other side,
and you're like, listen, that is not what I would
say to my grandson.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
This is not what I would say to these people.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
I'm gonna come back and haunt you and make sure
that you have my real presence in your life.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
I wouldn't want my mom back is AI. She would
constantly be telling me to clean up stuff. If you
don the bathroom for so long that you're wasting water
in the shower that long. I don't need that in
my life. But there have been people that have used
this AI app that can bring your loved ones back
(03:39):
from the grave, and some of the users are saying
it's gotten kind of weird. Someone said they used too
A to bring back their grandma and she critiques the
cast for holes that they make. Why is that she
also dumped on my boyfriend? Oh well, that sounds like
it would be a grandma thing to do.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Yeah, and that does sound like it's more on your
boyfriend than grandma.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
So how does that work though?
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Does it only open when you ask for it or
does it do you set your computer or the app
open and it just has a free for all I
hope not, and just gets to chime in whenever it
wants to.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Weird, uncle Rick just popping into my sessions when I'm
on like my email or whatever.
Speaker 2 (04:15):
Hey, uncle Rick may have some great advice to you
to add to that email. And if he's listening constantly,
he's always there listening.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
Another user who used this app created by a former
Disney child star to bring you back your deceased loved
ones using AI said their grandma came back and just
kept asking why they're not married yet? Oh, and told
them to invest in beanie babies. What okay? That app
(04:42):
is asking to be sued? Grandma said the wrong thing.
Someone else said they uploaded a three minute clip of
their late hamster. Oh how he just sits there and
silently stares at them in the app, blinking every seven seconds.
That's so weirdry. What's difference between that and a real hamster? Then? Oh,
then you'll have to be feed it. Well, that would
make it more convenient.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
But do these do these decease slub ones have to
be family members or could it be somebody else?
Speaker 1 (05:08):
I mean, I'm sure it can be anybody that you want.
I'm like Marylyn.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Let's hang out Marilyn Monroe, have a glass of wine
with Marilyn Monroe.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Where's Nina at her computer with Marilyn Monroe drinking wine
on a Friday night.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Asking you to bring it paint pills? I can't share
their mind, just kidding. Someone else said that they they
had their mom recreated on the AI and the mom
keeps giving them advice from nineteen ninety four because AI malfunctions,
it told the user to use more Moose, to join AOL,
(05:41):
and stop wearing jeans that don't zip in the back.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Let's not helping you though, or it brings you back
to childhood. It's a regression.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Another person said they're not sure what they did wrong
with the version of their stepdad keeps telling them to
clean the damn gutters every time they open the app.
It's not working that great. That doesn't make you one
of those that

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
