This is formula student, a world series of events that took place this summer, featuring electric cars built by teams of students from 100 universities across the globe. On tracks throughout europe, the cars competed in disciplines including autocross, racing through formula 1 like twists and turns as fast as possible. . . . . An endurance trial through more than 20km of track to push the limits of battery management. . . . . A test of grip and downforce by basically going round in a circle as fast as possible and then there s acceleration. It s a drag race, basically, and it s this last challenge that one team, amz racing, absolutely blasted last year, going from 0 to 100km an hour in. . . Well, i ll let you know a bit later. Amz includes students from lucerne university of applied sciences and arts and eth zurich, and i dropped in on the team s swiss hq. And up here is the electronics department at amz racing. We re going to meet lara. Not that lara. For one car to excel at all of
Anyway, we ll also meet the actors who say their voices have been manipulated by ai.

This week, laras sniffing around the scientists who are bringing historic smells back to life. So, i guess ijust put my nose in here. Yes. Hmm. Delightful.

Im stephen sackur. Wherever you live, however you live, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, is going to change your life in the next few years. Will it be for the better . Well, there are Tech Visionaries with very different views some benign, others, dystopian. But on one thing, the futurists can agree what will matter most to the outcome isnt The Machines, its the humans. My guest, neil lawrence, is a professor of Machine Learning who says we face a choice. Either we use alas a tool or we will become a tool for al. So, which is more likely . Neil lawrence, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you very much for having me. Its a great pleasure to have you. Now, you are a computer scientist, but it seems to me, as youve journeyed deep into the potentiality of Artificial Intelligence, youve also thought a great deal about Human Intelligence and what is so very special and unique about us humans. Can you try to put that into words . Yeah, i think, for me, what weve seen with a lot of the art
