 It's time for a bonus episode! We read an amazing book, Artificial Wisdom, by Thomas R. Weaver (thomasrweaver.com) and absolutely loved it. 

In a future where human incompetence has caused a climate disaster, should we let an AI become global dictator to fix it all? That's the backdrop of this book, but add in reporter Tully investigating possible crime links in the human opponent of the AI for the dictator race, links to thousands of deaths, moral issues, and the murder of the creator of Solomon, the AI candidate. 

Join us as Dean chats with Thomas about the book.
