DnB Ep 162: Have Google and Boston Dynamics Officially Begun Building Skynet

In this on the road episode of the Dudes n Beer podcast, host Christopher Jordan is joined via skype by special guests Randy Jordan as well as Jon Bowne, host of Jon Bowne Politix and the Blah Blah Show to discuss whether or not Google and Boston Dynamics officially begun building Skynet as we know it from the famous Terminator franchise? With the recent announcement by Boston Dynamics that their robots are now learning to walk, run and even jump autonomously, how far away are we from seeing robots in our daily life? With the Spot-Mini robotic dog by Boston Dynamics officially going on sale in 2019, what does the future hold for the relationship between man and machine? With recent advances in Artificial Intelligence as well as the ongoing projects to build digital brains that are analogues of our own human brains, when do we think we’ll see the beginning of digital sentience? What are we to make of the fact that scientists have recently performed a successful memory transplant from one snail to another? Why are Google A.I. programmers protesting in droves after a recent announcement that Google is helping develop A.I. for the Pentagon’s Drone Program? These questions and more in this exciting rabbit-hole edition of the Dudes n Beer podcast.
