Meet Tim Raue, the lauded German chef who went from gang life to fine dining. After leaving the streets, he defied all odds with explosive creativity, but also the knack for running several lucrative restaurants.

If we place more and more of our lives under the control of these artificial brains, what are we putting at risk?
