Tech journalist for the New York Times and Hard Fork podcast host Kevin Roose has always been interested in AI, particularly the social side. What is it like to talk to an artificial intelligence, and to have it talk back? How will fast-evolving AI chatbots change our social lives? To find out, Roose invited 18 AI companions into his life, using popular apps like Kindroid and Replika. Roose joins Pioneers of AI to unpack the experience, introduce us to his “friends,” and share the best (and worst) use cases of these chatbots.Pioneers of AI is made possible with support from Inflection AI.At the center of AI is people, so we want to hear from you!
