Is Last Week Tonight with John Oliver new tonight on HBO, 4/26?

Is Last Week Tonight with John Oliver new tonight on HBO? Make no mistake that after its recent hiatus earlier this month, we are always nervous. What’s wrong with getting a little bit of comedy to wrap up the weekend? Sure, some of it is topical, but then you also have main segments that are a little bit more evergreen.

Let’s start here, though, by noting that you will be seeing a new episode tonight at around 11:10 p.m. Eastern time. One thing we should remind you of is that Oliver tapes in front of a live audience on Saturdays, meaning that some events from the White House Correspondents’ Dinner last night may have transpired either during or after the taping to place.

So what can we say for sure about this upcoming episode? Well, let’s allow HBO to do some of the talking here, as they have shared a synopsis via press release:

John Oliver discusses AI chatbots, why they’re flirting with users unprompted and encouraging people to open soggy cereal cafes, and how their flaws can be genuinely hazardous to the public.

This does feel like a legitimately good subject for a main segment, largely because so many of these are popular and beyond that, can be addictive to a number of users. It is yet another part of the large-scale AI boom that has gone on over the past several years and because of the sheer inundation that occurs within the news world today, there are instances where it can be difficult to keep up with everything. That is, in effect, what Last Week Tonight does a great job at — shining a light on some things you may not know all that much about otherwise.
