    Grayson concludes his tour of Silicon Valley by considering the motivations of the men behind the technology, such as Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos - and how their values might be challenged. He meets a scientist working on empathetic robots which offer a more human-centric alternative to the priorities of the industry and encounters one of the key players in AI, Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark, grappling with the possibility that AI could be shaped in such a way to offer a more optimistic future.
