Claire chatted to Kate Devlin from King's College London about the social and ethical implications of robotics and AI.
We touch on a range of different topics from concerns over job losses and privacy to issues of inequality, trust and power. In the second half of the interview, we talk a bit about robotics, AI and relationships. The conversation isn’t explicit, but if you’d prefer to give that part of the conversation a miss, you can stop the podcast at around 22 minutes, when you hear the music.
