today i am joined by a technologist, entrepreneur and the ceo who took google public, eric schmidt. thanks for being here. thank you, ari. so happy to be part of the show. right now you re very focused on artificial intelligence. you ve been called upon by the united states government, the pentagon among others, to figure out how to make this a good thing more than a danger. i want to play for you just some of the people at the top of these fields talking about ai. take a listen. punch a button at the start of the morning and all the goods and services we re getion now would be turned out by robots. it promises to create a vastly more productive and efficient economy. the way we think about ai is colored by popular culture and by science fiction. the idea the there s going to be a general ai over lord that subjugates us or kills us all i think is not something to worry
turn attorney general jeff sessions to limit the getion. four, telling lewandowski that he would be fired if he didn t meet with him, and, five, tampering with crucial witnesses like michael cohen and paul manafort. also potentially in hot water today, hope hicks, house democrats ordering her back to capitol to clean up testimony she gave that s being described today as inconsistent. it s around her role and her knowledge about illegal hush-money scheme that helped send michael cohen to jail. documents released yesterday show hope writing cohen in a text message about the press activity around an article about donald trump s catch and kill operation when it came to women. that is where we start today with some of our favorite reporters and friends. with us at the table former u.s. attorney joyce vance, former acting u.s. solicitor, neil, a.b. stoder is back.
i think that was totally irrelevant. it doesn t go to prove anything. again what your other getion said helps the defense. doubt now. the defense has been able to show reasonable doubt. some witnesses saying they saw one thing. john good who testified today incidentally the only witness who actually walked outside and saw some the altercation take place say that he saw another. that s built in reasonable doubt. that is a victory for the defense right there and we have to question again, what is the prosecution s strategy? you would have to speculate the reason they put john good on the stand because i too laura, when i put on the television today thought i was watching the defense witness today. but you would have to think they are doing this to sort of diffuse the blow, knowing that his testimony was going to hurt them and show the jurors, you know, we are not really hiding anything from you. but it back fired. because he, again, point by point corroborated george zimmerman s version
