About the show

Welcome to Robots and Red Tape! Our mission is to explore how AI will transform the world. At Robots and Red Tape, we aim to provide a balanced platform for AI experts to share educated insights. Here, we discuss real-world AI use cases, examine the societal impacts of AI, and shed light on the US government's approach to AI policy. As both a regulator and a major customer of AI technologies, the government’s decisions will significantly shape the future of the AI market. Join us as we navigate this exciting and evolving space, with a focus on education, transparency, and responsible AI development. We will never accept sponsorship to continue being unbiased, if you want to support our movement, we welcome you to subscribe to our Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/RobotsandRedTape
