Data Science & AI

Artificial Intelligence has officially moved far beyond the server room. It was only a matter of time before algorithms joined astronauts in orbit, transforming satellites from simple cameras into intelligent, autonomous investigators. As David Salvagnini, NASA’s Chief AI Officer, points out, we are heading toward a future where "everyone will, in some way, have their workday augmented" by AI, and that includes the machines floating 500 kilometers above our heads. For the tec

Have you ever wondered what it would be like if a computer could break the rules of reality? If tiny particles could store millions of pieces of data? If computers could think in ways completely different to our laptops and phones? Welcome to the world of quantum computing.  Regular computers are incredibly powerful, but they have their limits. Some problems, such as simulating molecules for new medicines or modelling complex chemical reactions, are too complex. So, quantum c

You’ve likely heard that making one hamburger takes 660 gallons of water - enough to fill 10 bathtubs. Now, a new claim is circulating: every ChatGPT prompt is equivalent to pouring out a bottle of water. While the numbers may sound exaggerated, they highlight the growing environmental footprint of machine learning, which is being rapidly revealed as artificial intelligence becomes an integral part of modern society. Machine learning is a subset of artificial intelligence. It

Creativity has always been human territory, whether it be brush strokes, melodies, poetry, or stories. It’s where we put our heart on display, show what it means to be curious, flawed, hopeful. And now, with AI stepping into artistic spaces, that territory is both expanding and being questioned. We see the headlines: AI-generated paintings auctioned for huge sums; algorithms composing music; tools that can write, sketch or design. But what’s often missing from the conversatio

We often build AI systems to notice what is there, who clicked, what was said, or which item was purchased. But what about what isn't...
