In this episode of the ARCHITECHT AI Show, Signe Brewster interviews Steve Cousins, CEO of Savioke, about the business of building robots optimized for in-building delivery. The robots currently operate inside hotels, where they can deliver goods from the front desk to guests' rooms, but are also designed for areas such as offices, warehouses and other indoor spaces. Cousins, who co-founded Willow Garage, also discusses the state of human-robot interaction and the slim chances we'll have general-purpose robots anytime soon.

In the news segment, co-hosts Brewster, Derrick Harris and Chris Albrecht discuss the new iPhone X AI features, Amazon's claim that robots haven't displaced workers, and the market for robots that interact with our pets.
