On this edition of KCBS In Depth, we speak with the Google engineer who believes that an artificially intelligent language system developed by his company has become sentient. Meantime, his claims have spotlighted a broader conversation about the ethics of emerging AI technology, and we also discuss why many experts are raising concerns about the misuse of AI in everything from home appliances to automated surveillance. 

Guests: 

• Blake Lemoine, engineer, Google
• Khari Johnson, senior writer covering artificial intelligence, WIRED
