Artificial intelligence has been described as “Thor’s Hammer“ and “the new electricity.” But it’s also a bit of a mystery – even to those who know it best. We’ll connect with some of the world’s leading experts in AI, deep learning and machine learning to explain how it works, how it’s evolving and how it intersects with every facet of human endeavor, from art to science. We release new episodes about every other week.
