In Atlas of AI (2021), Kate Crawford explores the twisted, complex world of artificial intelligence. She argues that AI is neither artificial nor intelligent, but rather a material system built from Earth’s rare resources and cheap labor, with severe environmental and human costs. Crawford explores the origins of AI and examines the processes that turn it into a double-edged sword, capable of harming as well as helping humanity. Governments and corporations are using AI to reinforce their power and control, and we must be aware of the pitfalls.

The Tales and Tails of a...

Peter Wright

The nation’s best-loved vet looks back at the funniest, most absurd or heart-breaking animal encounters and situations he has been in over his long and highly successful career. 
"My mentor and former boss Alf Wight said that the life of a vet is never dull and how true he was. It is funny looking back that he found fame through his James Herriot books, and now his former surgery and myself have been taken to the nation’s heart once again through our show The Yorkshire Vet. 
"It just shows what a nation of animal lovers we are and these past few years have been particularly challenging for all of us with the Coronavirus outbreak. But what it has shown me is the comfort and support our pets give us in times like these. All the same, it was this, along with recent changes to my working life that gave me an opportunity to reflect, so I want to look back at some of my favourite cases and share them with you."
