Contributor(s): | Could artificial intelligence already be conscious? Are today’s AI systems truly aware — or are we just projecting human qualities onto machines? We speak to Professor Jonathan Birch to explore the science and ethics of AI sentience. As machine learning systems like ChatGPT become more advanced, questions about consciousness in AI are becoming impossible to ignore. From unexplained emergent behaviours to the possibility of strange new forms of awareness, could we be facing a moral

Contributor(s): | Is artificial intelligence the solution to the National Health Service? Can we use technology to help reduce wait times in Accident and Emergency (A&E) departments at hospitals in the UK? As the NHS celebrates its 76th anniversary, we talk to Dr Laura Gilbert who tells us about how AI can help with simple processes that can give time back to NHS workers. How AI isn’t about taking away jobs in the NHS but giving doctors, nurses and pharmacists more time with patients.

Contributor(s): | From writing emails and generating art to reshaping industries, artificial intelligence is transforming daily life. But what powers artificial intelligence? And how stable is the infrastructure it's built on? AI isn’t just software — it’s hardware, geopolitics, rare earth mining, and an energy-hungry race for dominance. As AI becomes more embedded in our lives, the need to understand its material foundations has never been more urgent. In this video, we explore the fragile and

Contributor(s): Dr SM Rodriguez | When we think of law enforcement, we often focus on arrests and formal legal processes. But laws like Uganda’s sodomy legislation extend their reach far beyond the courtroom, working through moral panics, societal surveillance, and proxy laws to marginalise LGBTQ+ individuals. This talk explores how politically motivated laws can hide the extent of the harms that they enact. Dr SM Rodriguez challenges us to rethink enforcement by revealing how legal and societal

Contributor(s): Professor Patrick Wallis | For more than a century, apprenticeship in England has been in crisis. Brief moments of optimistic expansion have been punctured by political and economic shocks. Yet it was not always so. Before 1800, apprenticeship was a thriving and vital part of the economy. Drawing on his new book, "The Market for Skill", Professor Patrick Wallis describes how apprenticeship helped transform England from a backwards, rural economy and laid the foundations for the first
