AI is often seen as a magical fix-all. It's not, but it is, says Sims Witherspoon, a powerful tool for unlocking communities' problem-solving capacities. Witherspoon is a program manager at Google's DeepMind, which made headlines when it reduced energy required to cool Google Data Centres by 40 per cent. Energy consumption is one of the problems AI can be used for, and DeepMind is working on it.

Microdosing psychedelics refers to the practice of taking tiny amounts of drugs such as LSD or magic mushrooms. Some people claim that microdosing brings them benefits such as improved mood, focus or creativity. But there’s very little scientific evidence to show which effects microdosing actually has – or if it has any at all. Now, several groups of researchers are running placebo-controlled studies to explore what microdosing does. They ask participants to take either microdoses or placebos, without telling them which they are getting, then have them complete tasks testing things like cognitive function and psychological wellbeing. Having a placebo control is particularly important, as otherwise the reported effects of microdosing could be down to a placebo response rather than a physiological effect of the drug. #microdosing #lsd #psychedelics

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.

We are currently at a 42 year low for murder, says Karyn McCluskey, and it's not low enough. McCluskey is the chief executive of Community Justice Scotland and her work has resulted in the successful reduction in violent crime in Glasgow – effectively changing the city. Mapping and analysing the scale of the problem taught her that there were places to start: interrupt the transmission of the 'disease' of homicide; change behaviours; change norms.
