Will robots take our jobs, or make life better?

from Too Embarrassed to Ask · host Recode

Seismic CEO Rich Mahoney talks with Kara Swisher and Lauren Goode about how robots will change everyday life around the world. Mahoney's company, originally funded by DARPA, is developing wearable robotics, or "powered clothing," that could help the elderly experience a better quality of life, or provide support to sales reps who have to spend the whole day on their feet. He also talks about how improvements to robotics will reshape the economy and jobs, whether Elon Musk's tweets make Mahoney's job harder and when we'll all be able to buy electronic "super suits."  Learn more about your ad choices.
