Episode 15: Google Duplex, AI Photography & Avengers Infinity War

What an episode! We would put how scared we are about certain new bits of technology that are rearing their heads, but we're also scared that they might be able to read this and we for one welcome our new robot overlords, that's for sure. Oh, and Infinity War!

You can find us on other sites at @benjionelung and @bytereview - what would you use Google Duplex to take care of?

Thanks to Tony Thaxton for our theme!
