>> Seth Herzog is here
and I'm ready to get crazy in
the laugh battle here at
the National Comedy Center.
>> But the AI technology.
I'm just excited to be
part of the future.
>> Let's play. Ready?
>> Happiness detector.
I've been waiting
my whole life for that.
>> Where do baby cows eat?
The calf-eteria.
>> Now, we have for round two.
Janelle James versus
the very bearded Nick Thune.
>> The AI won't pick
up any laughs from me
because they don't call me
cold blooded for nothing.
>> I'm Nick Thune and I
want to thank Microsoft.
Because I'm going to win.
>> Very close battle.
They blocked each other,
they laughed at each
other a little bit.
I think Nick's beard kind
of helped him.
>> I'm Jordan Carlos,
Corinne, I like Corrine.
>> I'm going to have
a great time doing this.
I went to the dermatologists
recently and she was like,
"Your skin looks so young."
I was like, "Yeah,
I've never smiled."
>> In our championship finale,
the two very funny men.
Try not to laugh at other people
because they're
very self involved.
>> I lost three days already.
>> Nick Thune just won
this round of laugh battle.
>> You need a fix.
>> We are number one, all of us.
