Imagine if the Industrial Revolution took place over 10 years instead of 100. Imagine if most human labour was about to become redundant. Imagine if machines transformed our economy, our society, our politics.

You'd think politicians would be talking about it, making policies to manage it - leading a critical national conversation, perhaps even raising the alarm.

Well you don't need to imagine it. It's already happening. And our politicians are, almost entirely, silent.

In this special report, Lewis sees firsthand the almost unbelievable changes already afoot on America's west coast, at the pioneering forefront of the AI revolution. If AI is about to overtake our politics, why aren't our leaders talking - or even thinking - about it?
