In this episode of the ARCHITECHT AI and Robot Show, Signe Brewster speaks with Brown University researcher Stefanie Tellex about the state of the art in human-robot interaction. Tellex explains recent advances in building robots that can better understand natural language and interact intelligently with people to accomplish tasks. She also shares a vision of a household-robot future, powered by current research in deep learning and robotic manipulation.

In the news segment, co-hosts Brewster, Derrick Harris and Chris Albrecht discuss Elon Musk v. Mark Zuckerberg (aka Muskerberg), Roomba's plan to map your house and share your data, and the new Lego Boost build-your-own-robot kit.
