This week: how will democracy react to the AI revolution? Meet the 50 companies leading it. But seriously, read how Alexa is involved in a murder case. On applied AI, read into the best use cases to date and view McKinsey’s 120 machine learning business ideas. Next: ever wondered how people interact with a chatbot? Meet the awesome Mica: the Hipster Cat Bot.

And have an amazing start of the week!
