Bestselling author Dan Brown, of 'The Da Vinci Code,' discusses his latest work

On Monday's St. Louis on the Air, world-renowned author Dan Brown, most famous for "The Da Vinci Code," joined host Don Marsh to discuss his most recent novel, "Origin." The book, featuring the famous character Robert Langdon again, will be released on Oct. 3 and centers heavily on new technology. "I've spent a lot of time talking to scientists in the field talking about artificial intelligence, and they really disagree about whether it will be a boon for humanity," Brown said. "Will it solve problems like scarcity, pollution, over population? A.I. could have a very positive role. At the same time, it could have an ominous role. It is powerful and could get more powerful. Will this technology be used for harm?" Brown said that, starting book, he knew very little about artificial intelligence.
