TDF 381 Eric Lampaert Nov 08, 2016

Show notes

Artificial Intelligence. Eric Lampaert (@ericlampaert) is a great comic and loves him some, what I guess I believe, to be spooky tech. We talk about sentient robots. And find that there is very little sci fi overlap between us. WE talk the big issues and it’s fascinating. NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER PLEASE do NOT donate to TDF. DONATE to your LOCAL foodbank.
