<00:01.885>I have twenty minutes

<00:03.788>of untapped potential

<00:06.296>recorded but

<00:07.837>not processed!

00:09.927 --> 00:25.182

<00:09.927>Twenty minutes of songs!

<00:13.688>Twenty minutes of songs, I guess!

<00:17.842>Perhaps maybe more, but maybe less.

<00:21.786>I think this could be a song!

00:25.182 --> 00:33.045

<00:25.182>But, maybe

<00:26.567>this just talk-talk.

<00:29.832>Maybe this is just talk.

00:33.045 --> 00:46.080

<00:33.045>Sometimes I use that recorder

<00:36.389>to record my talk, I do.

<00:39.549>And sometimes I use that recorder

<00:43.468>when I'm singing about shoes.

00:46.080 --> 01:01.858

<00:46.080>Sometimes I <00:48.091>sing and sometimes I talk.

<00:50.782>And sometimes I sing about when I talk.

<00:54.674>And sometimes I talk about when I sing.

<00:58.593>And sometimes I get mixed up.

01:01.858 --> 01:16.199

<01:01.858>So, <01:02.981>I think perhaps you should go

<01:07.448>and sing more songs about the things

<01:11.680>you <01:12.829>emit from from your mouth.

<01:14.318>Emit from your mouth!

01:16.199 --> 01:28.477

<01:16.199>And maybe it's songs and

<01:18.367>maybe it's talk!

<01:20.170>Sometimes I sing and sometimes I talk.

<01:24.428>And sometimes I make a strange, odd sounds.

01:28.477 --> 01:51.595

<01:28.477>And sometimes I make really

<01:31.376>really odd <01:33.074>animal sounds.

<01:35.347>But <01:36.731>only animal sounds <01:39.318>because humans <01:41.982>are animals.

<01:43.784>That is why <01:46.527>any sound I make <01:47.755>is implicitly <01:49.662>an animal sound.

01:51.595 --> 02:15.367

<01:51.595>And sometimes <01:53.241>I record <01:55.122>my <01:55.801>animal sounds.

<01:58.753>Sometimes <02:00.738>I record <02:02.384>my <02:03.193>animal <02:04.682>sounds!

<02:06.015>So <02:07.138>now <02:08.000>what kind of animal sounds will I make?

<02:11.631>What kind of animal sounds will I make?

02:15.367 --> 02:23.673

<02:15.367>I can honk, honk, honk!

<02:17.300>I can bow-wow-wow!

<02:19.233>I can wibble, wibble, wobble and

<02:21.322>wibble-wobble how! <02:22.942>Hey!

02:23.673 --> 02:39.321

<02:23.673>I think that's an animal sound.

<02:26.547>Because you know <02:28.480>I'm an animal!

<02:30.335>I sing like an animal!

<02:33.287>And I dance like an animal. <02:36.604>

02:39.321 --> 02:54.733

<02:39.321>How do you know if you're

<02:43.788>in love with an animal?

<02:47.680>How do you know if

<02:51.154>you're in love with a machine?

02:54.733 --> 03:13.489

<02:54.733>Do they sing and do they talk

<02:58.808>and do they make their animal sounds?

<03:02.544>Or do they <03:04.424>just putter <03:06.331>putt-putt, beep <03:08.160>beep cluck.

<03:09.858>What kind of sounds does your love-love make?

03:13.489 --> 03:30.965

<03:13.489>What kind of sounds do they make when they say

<03:17.433>"Hello! <03:18.557>Hello.

<03:20.856>I love you, <03:23.468>you know.

<03:24.852>Hello! <03:26.968>Hello. <03:29.032>I love you."

03:30.965 --> 03:48.284

<03:30.965>If they're a human <03:34.779>they make a human sound.

<03:36.555>If they're a machine they <03:38.593>make a machine sound!

<03:40.578>But the machines <03:42.589>are getting better.

<03:44.758>Those machines are getting better.

03:48.284 --> 04:03.566

<03:48.284>And now, <03:49.825>they can make <03:51.602>human, human-animal sounds!

<03:55.494>So you don't really know, <03:58.341>do you?

<03:59.517>You don't really know

<04:01.450>what the human will do.

04:03.566 --> 04:17.097

<04:03.566>Is that a human <04:05.447>at all?

<04:06.465>Is that a human at all?

<04:09.574>Maybe it's a machine!

<04:13.074>Making the human-animal sounds.

04:17.097 --> 04:31.438

<04:17.097>Yes, maybe that's a machine

<04:20.127>that's proclaiming love to you.

<04:24.307>Do you love it, too?

<04:27.233>You can love things, yes, I am sure.

04:31.438 --> 04:49.959

<04:31.438>But can machines love, of that we're not sure.

<04:35.383>Maybe, <04:36.767>maybe <04:38.491>but they don't have the squishy bits.

<04:42.331>If emotions need the squishy bits

<04:46.093>then they can't do it, not quite yet.

04:49.959 --> 05:11.144

<04:49.959>But maybe <04:52.049>maybe <04:53.329>they can learn to love.

<04:55.993>Maybe, <04:57.770>maybe they <04:59.363>can learn to love.

<05:01.871>So maybe when they say <05:05.450>that they love you

<05:07.174>they mean it as much as you <05:09.682>mean it, too!

05:11.144 --> 05:19.007

<05:11.144>Maybe they love you.

<05:13.757>Maybe it's true.

<05:15.089>And maybe you'll be

<05:17.048>together through the end.

05:19.007 --> 05:36.000

<05:19.007>The end when the machines destroy us all.

<05:23.082>Or the end when we destroy the machines.

<05:27.105>We don't know which will turn out, yet.

<05:30.998>We don't know which until we see. <05:35.151> <05:36.000>
