Episode Description from the Publisher

The people building AI are the ones sounding the alarm. So this week I'm asking the big one: can AI actually destroy the human race? Then you'll meet Lindsey Brooke Isaacs. Flock cameras placed her car near a deadly crash, and she spent 13 days in jail. Even though other evidence pointed to a completely different vehicle. She tells me how it happened and where she is today. I'm Kim Komando, America's Digital Goddess. Tech news, scams, AI tips and your calls. Also this week: Brian Dema lost his dad. So he used AI, his father's handwriting and old voice recordings to build a holographic version of him. Sergeant Anthony was driving his Uber shift when police jumped in and used his car to chase down a murder suspect. Plus, our game Brand New or Not True is back. And New York City is rolling out robot toilets. You get 10 minutes, then it flushes you out. Flushing idea.
