Summary
This is a podcast interview transcript where tech journalist Joanna Stern discusses her new book 'I Am Not a Robot,' in which she spent a year integrating AI into every aspect of her life to evaluate the technology's current state. She found that many hyped AI products, especially humanoid robots (physical machines designed to look and act like humans), are not yet ready for real-world use, though she is optimistic about wearable AI (AI embedded in portable devices like smartwatches) as a potential breakthrough application.
