Dr.Mrs. Future Show - Issues of informed consent, defying authority, Gates Control, viral load exposure, safety and efficacy of Covid vaccines, Economy vs Health, dangers of masks, helpful vasodilation agents 

The natives are restless as we continue the lockdown in California. Non-stop callers today covering the gamut of our current crisis. One of the big issues this week is getting back to work and what does that actually look like?  And how much death and suffering is caused by slowing the economy so drastically? Looking at such cost/benefit decisions is different for different callers, and we fielded quite a range.  
Callers were also very concerned about the erosion of constitutional and human rights during this health crisis, and what we can do about that.  And medically, we discussed a number of preventative health measures worth knowing, including vasodialation for preventing damage to one’s organs by Covid-19. Also, with our science correspondent Bobby Wilder, we discuss what’s up with the banning of certain popular spokespersons promulgating alternate points of view on the crisis, like Dr. Judy Mikovits.  The pond is beginning to boil as we start to reboot the economy.

Update on Artificial Intelligence with AI researchers Drs. Eliot Handelman, Andie Sigler and Casey X

Listen Now to Dr. Future Show 2.21.2017

With all the talk these days about bringing jobs back to America, and Bill Gates talking about taxing robots, we catch up with our favorite Artificial Intelligence researchers from Canada. Drs. Eliot Handelman and Andie Sigler, with their Cartoon Network associate, Casey X, give us an update on their latest thinking about AI.  What do humans do if smart robots are doing all the work?  Eliot suggests our species become more focused on creativity, fostering the divine spark within us, something the robots cannot grasp or conceive of as yet. Andie suggests we see the rise of the machines as an extension rather than of foe of ourselves. The question of jobs and education is broached as well by Mrs. Future, who helps in the elucidatation of these topics with our erudite (and fun) guests. Enjoy!

Future News - AI Bixby Debuts, Mark Cuban and Bill Gates on Robots, Jobs, and Taxes, Silicon Valley's Upcoming Cinequest Film & VR Festival, Dr. Bruce Damer's first-hand report on NASA's choice for the next Mars Rover

Listen Now to Future News 2.21.2017

Lots of great news this week, from a new AI on Samsung gear to getting the robots to pay taxes.  If that idea takes off, you can thank Bill Gates for that!  For today’s show we spoke with Kendall Stevens, about the upcoming Cinequest Film and VR Festival in Silcon Valley next week.  We are particularly curious about how cinematic storytellers will be using the new medium of VR and 360 video, and asked Kendall to tell us a bit about the productions they will be featuring. 

We finish up the news segment of our show with a fresh report from Dr. Bruce Damer on his presentation to a gathering of 260 scientists at the Jet Propulsion Labs last week, deciding where the next Martian rover will land to look for signs of life. Bruce was happy to report that his team’s choice of Gusev Crater is one of the final three choices that the NASA scientists as a whole have chosen, originally from a field of over 30 landing sites. If his site wins, they will be looking for life in an old Martian hot springs, back when it was warm.  Enjoy!
