New York Times best-selling author of Rise of the Robots, Martin Ford, discusses what he discovered about the current state of AI and its future potential while researching his new book, Architects of Intelligence.

Martin details the current state for this emerging technology. AI is already writing compelling news stories, crafting engaging real estate listings, and taking over stock market trading.

We take a look at the future implications for the economy and whether all of us will eventually be replaced by machine learning robots. Fortune 500 companies have already got a huge head start with this technology, Do it Yourself AI is becoming more and more accessible for smaller companies.

Finally, our host Alex asks Martin about the risks associated with this technology moving forward. How far away are we from “super intelligence”? That is to say, when will AI machines become smarter than humans?
