    In their continuing efforts to point out that artificial intelligence has nothing to do with preservatives and food dyes, Adam and Jeff continue their discussion regarding various issues posed by recent advances in the field. Certainly they are both keenly aware of the fact that AI has helped to create a self-generating surveillance state in which everyone with a phone can collect photos and data and essentially provide enormous amounts of information to virtually anyone who might wish to access that information--whether for good or evil. As far as the ability of AI to offer predictive algorithms as to when future crimes will occur, Jeff suggests that we already have a pretty good idea where we want to focus our policing efforts based upon where most crimes have occurred in the past. Adam and Jeff are also both concerned about the lack of privacy and the fact that any conversation overheard by a cellphone usually brings about a torrent of advertisements for products that might have been referenced in that particular conversation. Jeff is quite adamant that he does not want to have a virtual assistant such as Alexa in his household as he already has too many people telling him what to do. Adam and Jeff also wonder about complaints that AI could be biased because most of the scientists in the field are male and from leading developed nations. Jeff's best suggestion is that everyone learn English as a universal language for commerce and science so that they are not excluded from advances in AI. Finally, Adam brings up Asimov's three laws of robotics which basically were designed to prevent humans from being strangled by sentient robots while they slept.
