It was great to visit Age UK yesterday! We discussed how AI can help older people, but also emerging dangers, including ever more sophisticated scams and deepfakes. Thanks to Age UK CEO Paul Farmer and colleagues for hosting us!

Lunch with the ⁦Citizen-Centric Artificial Intelligence Systems⁩ team

Looking forward to this!

Had a surprise call from BBC News (UK) this morning... and before I knew it, I was on live TV talking about electric cars. What an honour! We talked about challenges surrounding their uptake and some of the work we're doing at University of Southampton to address these challenges.

Working on your academic career? Citizen-Centric Artificial Intelligence Systems team member Jan Buermann has great advice on how to build up your promotion case while pursuing your own research and career vision.

Kicking off our new Centre for Doctoral Training on AI for Sustainability (SustAI)!

As AI is moving on, are people still smarter than software? Visit us at #SOTSEF in Building 58 today and find out!

Great day at #SOTSEF with the Citizen-Centric Artificial Intelligence Systems team!

Pitched the #SOTSEF audience against AI in a public lecture again. It’s getting closer - humans 5 vs AI 3.5!

Summary of the Turing tests we ran at #SOTSEF today: Attendees had to guess if they were interacting with an AI or a human. They were right 18 times and wrong 18 times. Seems like AI is passing the test now! Thanks to Beining and Fariba for running this.
