Synopsis

Jon Stewart dives into the hantavirus cruise ship panic sweeping the news cycle, the landfill visit that appears to have sparked the spread, whether we're getting a pandemic sequel, and the media's eagerness to sensationalize the virus while health experts urge calm. Also, Trump gets his own version of the golden calf, and cruise ships offer free norovirus. Josh Tyrangiel, staff writer at The Atlantic and author of "AI for Good: How Real People Are Using Artificial Intelligence to Fix Things That Matter" joins Jon Stewart to discuss why there is a brief but closing window to use public pressure and political will to demand AI that actually works with human beings, and doesn't replace them. Tyrangiel shares how teachers, doctors and caregivers are quietly using AI as a tool to change lives. They also discuss why Fortune 100 CEOs don't want to talk about AI's impact on their workforce and this idea of imagining "tech without the tech companies".
