Kierkegaard: What if when the robots become self-aware, they are just crippled by existential angst. He says there's a lot to be gleaned from studying our prior relationship with animals. "If we read your book, then we will know how to," he adds.
Are robots going to take over? On this episode, Neil deGrasse Tyson & comic co-host Negin Farsad explore our future with artificial intelligence by looking at our past with animals with robot ethicist and author of A New Breed, Dr. Kate Darling.
