On today’s episode of AI Beat, we explore the moment when artificial intelligence steps out of the digital world and into real life. From a $70 billion U.S. government investment in AI and energy, to Google’s multi-billion dollar deal for code-writing AI, the stakes have never been higher. We visit Dubai’s new AI-powered restaurant with a robot chef, and dive into the cultural shockwave of an AI-generated band that hit a million Spotify streams before anyone knew it wasn’t human. Finally, we examine how AI is transforming education—not replacing teachers, but becoming a powerful classroom partner. Join us as we unpack how AI is getting hands, a voice, and a place in our daily lives.
