She's appeared on the cover of Britain's ELLE magazine and talk shows like Good Morning Britain and The Tonight Show. When Charlie Rose interviewed her on CBS's 60 Minutes this past June, the dangers of this humanoid hit me like a tidal wave. Sophia is the latest in a string of robotic humanoids. And, she is arguably the most powerful and threatening "woman" on the planet. Renowned scientist Stephen Hawking and hundreds of technology leaders are also worried about the potential risk of robots like Sophie being used as weaponry.

Masters of Illusion Xavier Mortimer, Scott Pepper, Chris Randall, Joshua Jay, Murray SawChuck, Billy Kidd and Greg Gleason are the featured magicians in this new episode hosted by Dean Cain. Killjoys As the Killjoys plan to execute a high-risk theft on a well-armored convoy, Aneela (Hannah John-Kamen) is distracted by her own to find Delle Seyah (Mayko Nguyen). Guy's Family Road Trip The Fieris depart Flagstaff, Ariz., and enjoy a flight through the Grand Canyon before heading east on Route 66 and making a few stops before getting to Albuquerque. Dark Matter Former Raza crew member and now emperor Ryo (Alex Mallari Jr.) captures Two (Melissa O'Neil) and holds her hostage in a bid to force the crew of the ship to give up the Blink Drive. Three, Five and Six (Anthony Lemke, Jodelle Ferland, Roger Cross) are ready to deal, but Ryo's negotiating position is undermined by treachery among his own ranks in this new episode of the science-fiction series.

Masters of Illusion Magic prevails for another summer as this showcase for prestidigitators starts its fourth season, with Dean Cain ("Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman") returning as the series' host. Killjoys Still reeling from the devastating losses they suffered last season, Dutch, Johnny and D'avin (Hannah John-Kamen, Aaron Ashmore, Luke Macfarlane) go on the offensive in the season premiere of this space-set action drama. The Great British Baking Show The cooks are tasked with whipping up a better batter for baked goods in this new episode; with judges Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood. Dark Matter A rival of Tabor captures one of Adrian's (Mishka Thebaud) friends and demands a specific data file in exchange for her safe return in a new episode of this science fiction drama. Correspondents Eva Pilgrim and Nick Watt report on tense situations that can quickly become dangerous and deadly.

The search to improve and eventually perfect artificial intelligence is driving the research labs of some of the most advanced and best-known American corporations. They are investing billions of dollars and many of their best scientific minds in pursuit of that goal. All that money and manpower has begun to pay off.In the past few years, artificial intelligence -- or A.I. -- has taken a big leap -- making important strides in areas like medicine and military technology. What was once in the realm of science fiction has become day-to-day reality. You'll find A.I. routinely in your smart phone, in your car, in your household appliances and it is on the verge of changing everything. On 60 Minutes Overtime, Charlie Rose explores the labs at Carnegie Mellon on the cutting edge of A.I. See robots learning to go where humans can'... It was, for decades, primitive technology. But it now has abilities we never expected. It can learn through experience -- much the way humans do -- and it won't be long before machines, like their human creators, begin thinking for themselves, creatively. Independently with judgment -- sometimes better judgment than humans have. As we first reported last fall, the technology is so promising that IBM has staked its 106-year-old reputation on its version of artificial intelligence called Watson -- one of the most sophisticated computing systems ever built.

As 2016 passes, and we look forward to the year ahead, here is my fourth annual list of the ten best long-form stories about technology from last year. Andreessen Horowitz general partner, Chris Dixon, has written a number of compelling pieces on Medium this year, but my favorite is a great overview of "What's Next in Computing", in which he highlights how each product era has two phases, the gestation phase and the growth phase. He highlights how fast the growth is happening and why. As hardware becomes small, cheap, and ubiquitous, we all have access to sophisticated technology. He then offers predictions in a range of rising technologies such as artificial intelligence, the Internet of Things, wearables, virtual reality, augmented reality.

"I've been waiting for you," Sophia tells 60 Minutes correspondent Charlie Rose. They're mid-interview, and Rose reacts with surprise. "But it makes a good pickup line." Sophia managed to get a laugh out of Charlie Rose. Rose interviewed the human-like machine for this week's two-part 60 Minutes piece on artificial intelligence, or A.I.
