On this week’s episode of The Professional Noticer, Andy welcomes Herb Hughes—science fiction novelist, and Steve Woods—AI engineer at General Dynamics, for a fast, funny, and thought-provoking look at where artificial intelligence is really headed.
Tune in to hear Herb and Steve join Andy for a fascinating–sometimes unsettling–conversation about how much of today’s technology was first imagined in science fiction. From Asimov’s predictions to real-world AI breakthroughs, the trio explores where artificial intelligence is taking us—touching on machine learning, quantum computing, and the line between imagination and reality—and asks the big question: will AI ever truly become self-aware?
