Sometimes our guests talk about technology that’s so wild, we just have to take another off-topic look at it.

This time, we discuss Amazon's smart shelves, but also what happens when the law has access to smart image-capturing devices; we discuss Sophia the Robot and the time she went on a date with Will Smith; finally, we discuss Martine Rothblatt and her genuine attempts to overcome death by digitizing consciousness.

Creative Machines Tangents is recorded and produced by David Angell at Giant Sound Toronto.
