In partnership with Museum of London: London has long been a magnet for talent and investment, attracting the brightest minds from every corner of the globe.

Since 2015 the UK government has been trying to impose restrictions on access to porn. All of the legal measures needed to do so have passed and now it is only a matter of time until changes start to happen across the web. But the idea (and the execution) is fundamentally flawed. The UK's film certification board, an organisation with a limited digital background, has been put in charge of implementing the policy and one of the main age verification systems is owned by the world's largest porn company. The result? Potentially profound and damaging implications for privacy and a deluge of data on the private habits of millions of people just waiting to be hacked.

The world once looked down on Chinese tech – seeing it as a copycat ecosystem. That was once true; but while the world sneered, China was catching up: China now has the fastest supercomputer in the world, a digital payments market 50 per cent larger than that of the US, and the biggest issuer of new international patents. Seven of the top ten unicorns are Chinese. Keyu Jin, a professor, London School of Economics, is researching globalisation and the Chinese economy, focusing on bridging western capital and a new breed of fastgrowing Chinese technology companies.

Sandra Wachter is a Lawyer, Associate Professor and Senior Research Fellow at University of Oxford. In this video, Sandra discusses how the law can keep up with new technology. Particularly, she spoke about her recent work on targeted advertising – a big issue for tech giants including Facebook and Amazon. The law already protects against discrimination based on certain identity traits such as race or gender. But targeted advertisers claim to group people according to “affinity” – an aggregate measure of their online behaviour – not identity. Wachter believes, however, that existing concepts in the law may have something to say about discrimination by affinity.

Simonyi professor and mathematician Marcus du Sautoy’s new book, The Creativity Code, explores the future of creativity and how machine learning will disrupt, enrich, and transform our understanding of what it means to be human.
