Description

The consensus among AI savants is that 2027 will be a key year -- a year in which AI achieves some degree of "sentience": It won't want to be shut down, for example. The HAL scenario, in the film "2001: A Space Odyssey" is coming. But Jeffrey Cole, director of the USC Annenberg Center for the Digital Future, is mostly "positive," about the fast march of AI. He speaks with Host Llewellyn King and Co-host Adam Clayton Powell III.
