Three scientists won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2022 for proving Quantum Entanglement is real! We delve into its fascinating world and philosophical implications on human connections and the universe. Lindsay, an astrophysicist with expertise in space policy, breaks down complex scientific concepts like wave function collapse and quantum mechanics into digestible analogies (organizing chopsticks). 

We explore how quantum entanglement might explain the deep interconnectedness between people and life's synchronicities. The conversation also touches upon Lindsay's passion for the impact of dark skies on our appreciation of the cosmos, and light pollution's effect on our wellbeing. 

We also discuss the power of individual decisions and the butterfly effect on shaping our lives and the universe at large. Lindsay's passions for art and science make her a captivating guest, effortlessly blending them into our discussions, making advanced science topics fun and accessible.

The ethics of AI: AI is neutral but how it’s coded and used will determine if it’s good or bad for us. Here’s the catch: its development is based around profit and private companies are racing each other for it. This race is not democratically run and we have no regulations in place to manage AI’s warpspeed advances and without fail-safes it’s a gloomy prospect.

We also cover the link between Green energy, lithium, AI and Tesla. If one day things go south with lithium’s import, will sending that one email be as expensive as heating our home? 

Not all gloom and doom, we also touch on the advantages of having AI in our lives. 

Tune in to find out what can be done to avoid the worst and manage our world with AI already deeply embedded in it. Hear all of this from today’s guest Scott Sereboff with 25+ years in surveillance and security technologies. This includes everything from cameras to AI and biometrics. Recorded on the 27th Apr 2023.

Ever wondered how someone is exonerated after 28 years in prison? Innocence Projects are doing an insane amount of work to make that happen. 

Today with Louise, Director of The Innocence Project London, we talk about what they do for the wrongfully convicted.

Dr Louise Hewitt has many accolades but the one that stands out to me is the pro bono work she’s been doing for over 13 years at the Innocence Project London (IPL). 

We go over:

+ Claiming back your innocence and why it’s such a lengthy process?

+ Are the requirements to get your case reviewed fair or not?

+ Various types of wrongful convictions: Joint enterprise liability & mistaken eyewitness identification.

+ How good storytelling from a prosecutor can sway a jury against you.

+ How does she know if her clients are genuinely innocent and not just playing her?

+ Is anyone more vulnerable to be wrongfully convicted?

+ The look of innocence: our misconceptions and ideas. Are there parameters in place to combat bias in the justice system?

+ Different categories of prison.

+ Even when exonerated, can you ever remove the stain - Is that injustice ever made right again?

+ What to do if you’re arrested for a crime you didn’t do. 

+ The lack of legal aid funding and how she keeps going. 

+ The empathy for the individuals in prison as being part of our society. 

+ The ripple effect of the innocence project.

+ Could a world without IPL ever exist?

+ The future of IPL.

+ Being pardoned and wanting your name back.

Mentioned in the episode: Maria Konnikova (journalist) & John Huffington (exonerated) 

This is an episode that is very important to me, what the Innocence Project London does is not easy but very important work that requires tenacity and support. I hope this episode will go some way in giving them support.
