Summary

President Trump happily accepts a mysterious "gift" from his enemies in Iran, but forces TSA agents to work without pay as air travelers wait in 9-hour lines, all because he refuses to approve a deal between congressional Republicans and Democrats. Plus, Trump is throwing untrained ICE agents into America's airports, and even though they're doing nothing to help move TSA lines, Josh Johnson is just glad to have them off the streets. AI is changing the world, giving young people terminal brain rot, and stealing our jobs, but is it also trying to kill us? Daniel Kokotajlo, a former OpenAI researcher and company whistleblower, warns Ronny Chieng about the imminent human extinction threat posed by current AI. Emmy-winning and Oscar-nominated actor Sterling K. Brown joins Josh Johnson to discuss the series “Paradise,” which he stars in and executive produces, and who he would invite into his real-life bunker. Brown shares the reason why he became an actor, to “entertain, educate, and edify,” and encourages struggling actors and artists to stay motivated through rejection by remembering why they chose their craft. Plus, Josh Johnson presents: The Mini Roast of Sterling K. Brown. -- To get simple, online access to personalized, affordable care for ED, Hair Loss, Weight Loss, and more, visit https://Hims.com/dailyshow -- Stream full episodes of The Daily Show on Paramount+.
