In episode 70 of The AI Fix, our hosts learn that AI makes people more dishonest, Waymo's robo-cars save lives but get outsmarted by a bathroom mirror, a "rescue" bot slurps up victims head-first, and China shows off a fusion robot arm that can lift ten elephants (or 200,000 pigeons, if you’re scientific about it).
