Brandon London, a former Super Bowl and Grey Cup champion, has partnered with David Borish, a creative technologist, to create 'Jocks and Bots', a show exploring the intersection of sports, technology, and culture.

Aila's mere presence reflects changing technology. Borish said that less than a year ago, the AI co-host was just a robotic voice. 'That's just a testament to how quickly this technology is evolving,' he said.'Back in April when we first talked about it, the AI -- the way you see it now with the visual and setup with our co-host -- wasn't even possibl
