LJ Rich delves into the weird world of artificial intelligence

BBC presenter, social media guru and future thinker LJ Rich takes &more on a fascinating tour of the world of AI and future technologies - and how they are changing our world in both weird and wonderful ways. 

This event is a must attend for the tech savvy, future gazing young researcher to understand how AI is the next step change in our lifetimes. Like the scene from a sci-fi movie, AI will physically connect us with our loved ones and animals while thousands of miles from home as well enable us to have ‘meaningful’ relationships with robots.

Funny, intelligent and informed LJ Rich gives an erudite view of our world today and in the not-too-distant tech-total future.
