Following reports Google has developed a “sentient” artificial intelligence chatbot capable of reasoning and thinking, what is the future role of AI and the vast amounts of data washing around London?
For a special edition, we’re at Westminster’s QEII Centre for the first day of London Tech Week, which has been rebranded for the week as a trendy “campus” for the leading lights in technology to get together.
We ask City Hall’s Chief Digital Officer Theo Blackwell about the practicalities of using data as a tool to address violent crime and poverty, and whether blockchain’s actually viable for running city services.
Plus, is there enough oversight to stop the machines taking over?
We also look at what role AI might actually have in our working and personal lives in the near future.
To answer these questions, we hear from David Guile, Professor of Education and Work at UCL, who discusses the role of humans in the 21st Century workplace, and how to work out if you’re speaking to a human or a chatbot.
