AI special with Dr Emily Anderson

Dr Anderson has worked in AI for over a decade, she completed her Ph.D. in computed science and focused on machine learning and I was lucky to have a moment to speak to her about this remarkable technology.
But what is AI? How is it transforming our lives, at home and in the workplace?
 
Dr Anderson explains the ethical implications and givers her thoughts on how Human-AI collaboration is a key to augment human capabilities.

teletext People - Graham Norwood

"We were the first people in the World to do this sort of thing..."
Graham Norwood.
 
Graham is a prolific travel writer and Formula One fan, but before all of this he cut his journalistic teeth at BBC Ceefax.
Graham recalls the stories and events that the service reported on and conveyed to the public in it's unique way.
There is also a rare insight into how some Ceefax staff felt in the food-chain of BBC journalists. Were these fair observations?
Listen and share your thoughts...
