We talk to comedian and writer Benjamin Apple about his obsession with The Singularity, the moment at which robots/machines learn to truly think. Benjamin is on the side of the robots, in that he thinks the singularity is, relatively speaking, imminent! Will gets skeptical early! Anthony tries to keep everyone friends! We talk about the origin of the term singularity, the prevailing theories, and some traps people fall into when trying to think about it! Also, Will talks about moon-sets and Anthony gets into the piano! Like, learning to play it.
