Aggretsuko (2018) s02e08 Episode Script
He Lives Above The Clouds
1 ENI-O.
That's the AI that I developed.
As you may know, specialized AI, up until now, has derived rules from "big data" and supported the streamlining of business operations.
My ENI-O is different.
ENI-O is more creative.
From social media and television to print media, ENI-O listens to people's voices across all media.
It reads society's zeitgeist with natural language processing, on a huge scale.
So, the service we're offering to your company is the creation of new value and demand with ENI-O.
RAGE RAGE I'm so tired.
The truth is, I'm bad at this.
You did well.
What's up next? You have no further meetings today.
You are returning to your regular work.
I see.
Time for a 15-minute nap.
Did you hear that Freeride's CEO came by yesterday? Huh? Whatever.
It's an AI venture! It was big news when its CEO bought a foreign company! Whatever.
It was big news for all the tech-nerds, probably.
Hey, don't make light of technology.
Do you realize that the smartphone you're glued to was created by those tech-nerds? Huh? Whatever.
I'm listening.
That CEO is said to be the closest to making a general-purpose AI.
Some say he must be a megalomaniac or a swindler.
I think he's the real deal, though.
I wish I could have gotten his signature.
That went over my head, but he sounds amazing.
He said that our sales would rise by 150% in two years and the profits would be ours.
It all seemed so bizarre and worrying, but it might be the vision of a genius.
He's charming, that's for sure.
Wow, he sounds like a character.
And he's kind of cute.
So putting that aside, have you made up with Washimi? Director Gori? He has this childish aura, but you can tell he's smart.
Maybe he's a true visionary.
He gave the impression of being genuinely compassionate.
I like that.
What a wonderful person.
So putting that aside, have you made up with Director Gori? Washimi? We haven't moved at all.
What's wrong? There's not enough data.
I can't pinpoint the cause.
Kobayashi, do you know? It might be an accident.
There's a fallen crane ahead.
ENI-O, prioritize tracking and analysis of the current situation.
Scan through recent social media posts.
There must be a picture of this somewhere.
Try it.
Understood.
There's a lot to learn from the unexpected, ENI-O.
I've got to get out.
Go on without me.
Understood.
Retsy.
It's really you! Long time no see.
Well, I realized I'm not a good driver.
Is that any excuse to up and disappear? Work on that! I'm sorry.
You don't look sorry! It's a relief, though.
You look happy.
Yeah, happy as a clam.
How's work? You can't just putter around, you know? That's true.
So, hey, you got your license, right? Let me treat you.
Hey, don't force yourself.
You would need money for that.
Hmm We'll get ramen, then.
Ramen? We can go celebrate, if we split the bill.
Fine by me! It's a promise! Retsuko, did something good happen? Nothing much! What happened, Retsuko? Did something good happen? Nothing much! WHAT ARE YOU DOING? I'M YAWNING.
SLACKING OFF? LOL! DON'T SAY THAT.
LOL! By the way, about our promise Yes? Can you go out now? Here I am.
Um What's going on here? Retsy, do you like miso ramen? Um Yeah, I do.
Got it.
ENI-O, take us to the airport.
Understood.
Changing route.
ETA: 31 minutes.
My bad.
This must be a surprise.
ENI-O is the next generation AI that I created.
This is a secret, but he's also the one driving.
I have a driver, but only as a backup.
He's a decoy.
Self-driving cars aren't commonplace yet.
Oh, ENI-O isn't the car itself.
It's just a terminal in here.
ENI-O, say hello.
Nice to meet you.
I'm ENI-O.
Wait, this is too much! Hold on Hold on! Hold it, hold it! I thought we were going for ramen?! TAIGA RAMEN Well? Have you ever had miso ramen with a fish soup base? This place isn't well-known.
Sorry, but I can't grasp anything right now.
You have to go to Hokkaido for good miso ramen.
I always get ice cream here.
Do you want some? No, thanks.
I'm full.
BELIEVING IN ENI-O IS MY JOB THINKING TEN MOVES AHEAD FREERIDE INC.
REPRESENTATIVE: TADANO Hmm, let's see Oh, that one, please.
The vanilla one.
Why didn't you tell me? Well, um I didn't mean to deceive you.
It's just a coincidence that I visited your company.
ENI-O was the one who picked it.
Are you angry? No, I'm not! When I asked about your job, you said you were just fooling around.
I sure did.
The receptionist at the driving center also said that you were jobless.
Jobless, huh? Why didn't you say anything? I don't really mind.
It's not really a lie - that I'm just fooling around.
It's a half-truth.
What do you mean? If you take something you enjoy seriously it becomes a full-time job.
How did you struggle to drive a car when you can pilot a jet? I'm more suited to this.
There are no annoying signs.
There's no need to check for weird traffic jams, either.
And no motorcycles.
Precisely.
Why did you go to driving school? Your car drives itself.
What was the point? I want to set everyone free from manual labor.
Huh? "Huh?" I know, right? But I'm serious.
I figured I ought to start by freeing my employee of meaningless work.
If I got my license, I wouldn't need my fake driver, would I? So you'd put him out of a job? No, I'd pay him, which would give him the time to do whatever he wants.
Technology shouldn't be used to replace people.
Their skills should be redirected elsewhere.
If we achieve that, we'll improve as a civilization.
Right? Maybe.
Someday, ENI-O will make this come true, like how washing machines replaced washing clothes by hand.
But that means that everyone will be jobless.
Do you want to pay everyone? That's impossible, right? That's our society's bottleneck.
I want to restructure our society.
ENI-O will optimize this.
We should see results in 30 years.
What is he talking about? That was some dream! Why would I dream about that? Tadano could never be a TAIGA RAMEN MISO RAMEN - 850 YEN Huh? That was fun! Let's do this again! What? WOMEN'S CHANGING ROOM Retsuko, you're breathing pink clouds.
See you in the office.
Is this all because of a man? So you think that, too? Wow, this is crazy.
It's like I'm walking on air! Twenty-nine-year-old teacher.
Annual income: 4.
2 million yen.
31-year-old Self-Defense Forces member.
Annual income: 5 million yen.
28-year-old banker.
Annual income: 4.
3 million yen.
-Pick one.
-Other men look like vegetables! Are you free now? Yes! This isn't a dream.
It feels like a dream, but it isn't a dream.
Alright! I finally got it! What is it? I finally cracked the puzzle.
Come see! Now I know why you refused to show me your license.
How did you get this? I created a license photo based on a picture of you.
ENI-O simulated it.
Does it match yours? Not at all.
ENI-O, delete it! Deletion requires administrator permission.
I'll throw away the hard disk, then.
Hey, wait! I'll delete it.
I promise! Yeah, right! Now, move! I think I found him.
My soul mate!
