Episode #18: Smart(ish) Factories




The Stories We Tell Our Robots show

Summary: Dr. Tobias Wilson-Bates and Darien are joined by Jefferson Bates, a product manager at a major producer of IoT (Internet of Things) software for factories, to discuss whether the changing nature of factory production is likely to lead to massive global change, or just a series of small improvements. Jefferson discusses what's happening in the connected factory of today, and what might happen if robots stop working with us any time we're not in a good mood.
