Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Like I have from almost like a third person perspective.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:40:57.680
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Right.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:00.400
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Somebody who's sitting there like.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:00.900
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Yeah.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:02.400
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Like, because it is useful to be critical.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:02.960
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Like after, I just gave a talk yesterday.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:07.520
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
At MIT and I was just, there's so much love and it was such an incredible experience.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:12.480
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So many amazing people I got a chance to talk to, but afterwards when I went home and just
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:19.120
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
took this long walk, it was mostly just negative thoughts about me.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:25.760
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I don't like one basic stuff like I don't deserve any of it.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:29.680
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And second is like, like, why did you, that was so bad.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:34.720
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Second is like, like, why did you, that was so dumb that you said this, that's so dumb.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:39.200
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Like you should have prepared that better.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:44.880
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Why did you say this?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:47.520
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
But I think it's good to hear that voice out.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:50.240
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
All right.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:54.160
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And like sit in that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:54.560
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And ultimately I think you grow from that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:56.240
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Now, when you're making really big decisions about funding or starting a company or taking
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:41:58.560
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
a leap to go to the UK or take a leap to go to America to work in Media Lab though.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:03.680
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Yeah.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:10.960
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
There's, that's, you should be able to shut that off then because you should have like
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:11.200
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
this weird confidence, almost like faith that you said before that everything's going to
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:22.160
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
work out.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:26.080
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So take the leap of faith.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:26.720
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Take the leap of faith.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:28.480
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Despite all the negativity.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:30.160
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I mean, there's, there's, there's some of that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:32.400
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
You, you actually tweeted a really nice tweet thread.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:34.240
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
It says, quote, a year ago, a friend recommended I do daily affirmations and I was skeptical,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:39.760
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
but I was going through major transitions in my life.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:46.800
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So I gave it a shot and it set me on a journey of self acceptance and self love.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:49.360
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So what was that like?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:54.080
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Can you maybe talk through this idea of affirmations and how that helped you?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:42:55.680
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Yeah.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:01.360
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Because really like I'm just like me, I'm a kind, I'd like to think of myself as a kind
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:02.320
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
person in general, but I'm kind of mean to myself sometimes.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:07.200
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Yeah.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:10.320
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And so I've been doing journaling for almost 10 years now.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:11.280
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I use an app called Day One and it's awesome.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:16.720
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I just journal and I use it as an opportunity to almost have a conversation with the Debbie
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:18.880
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Downer voice in my, it's like a rebuttal, right?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:22.880
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Like Debbie Downer says, oh my God, like you, you know, you won't be able to raise this
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:25.520
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
round of funding.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:29.120
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I'm like, okay, let's talk about it.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:29.680
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I have a track record of doing X, Y, and Z.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:33.120
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I think I can do this.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:35.520
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And it's literally like, so I wouldn't, I don't know that I can shut off the voice,
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:37.120
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
but I can have a conversation with it.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:42.240
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And it just, it just, and I bring data to the table, right?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:44.240
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Nice.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:49.840
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So that was the journaling part, which I found very helpful.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:50.320
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
But the affirmation took it to a whole next level and I just love it.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:53.760
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I'm a year into doing this and you literally wake up in the morning and the first thing
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:43:57.600
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
you do, I meditate first and then I write my affirmations and it's the energy I want
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:02.720
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
to put out in the world that hopefully will come right back to me.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:09.440
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So I will say, I always start with my smile lights up the whole world.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:12.160
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And I kid you not, like people in the street will stop me and say, oh my God, like we love
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:17.200
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
your smile.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:20.720
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Like, yes.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:21.360
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So, so my affirmations will change depending on, you know, what's happening this day.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:22.320
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Is it funny?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:28.880
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I know.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:29.520
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Don't judge, don't judge.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:29.840
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
No, that's not, laughter's not judgment.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:31.360
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
It's just awesome.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:33.840
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I mean, it's true, but you're saying affirmations somehow help kind of, I mean, what is it that
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:35.040
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
they do work to like remind you of the kind of person you are and the kind of person you
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:42.480
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
want to be, which actually may be in reverse order, the kind of person you want to be.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:48.400
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And that helps you become the kind of person you actually are.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:53.760
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
It's just, it's, it brings intentionality to like what you're doing.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:44:56.960
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Right.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:01.280
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And so, by the way, I was laughing because my affirmations, which I also do are the
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:01.680
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
opposite.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:07.200
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Oh, you do?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:07.760
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Oh, what do you do?
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:08.320
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I don't, I don't have a, my smile lights up the world.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:09.040
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Maybe I should add that because like, I, I have, I just, I have, oh boy, it's, it's much
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:11.920
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
more stoic, like about focus, about this kind of stuff, but the joy, the emotion that you're
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:22.240
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
just in that little affirmation is beautiful.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:30.400
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So maybe I should add that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:32.960
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
I have some, I have some like focused stuff, but that's usually.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:35.120
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
But that's a cool start.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:38.080
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
It's after all the like smiling and playful and joyful and all that.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:39.120
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
And then it's like, okay, I kick butt.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:43.760
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
Let's get shit done.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:45.440

Right.

Okay, cool.
https://karpathy.ai/lexicap/0322-large.html#00:45:48.640
Rana el Kaliouby: Emotion AI, Social Robots, and Self-Driving Cars | Lex Fridman Podcast #322
So like what else is on there?
