France, Spain and Italy have been hardest hit by the heatwave so far.
But why is it so hot? What can you do to stay safe? And is El Nino to blame?
We answer some of your most asked questions about the heatwave sweeping Europe with our climate and health correspondents.
We’re also joined by our teams in Paris, Madrid and the south of France.

Tens of thousands of organisations have been caught out by a computer virus called WannaCry. The malicious software locks data away and demands a payment of up to $300 (£230) a time before it will restore scrambled files. In the UK, many hospitals fell victim and some health organisations diverted ambulances and cancelled non-essential services as they sought to contain and clean up the infection. Infections in more than 99 nations are being reported by security firms. It appears that the hardest hit are Russia and Spain.

A year ago, artificial intelligence was being sold as something close to science fiction — a technology that could transform society, cure disease, even reshape the global economy.
Today, the tone is changing. The companies leading the revolution are racing to the stock market — chasing billions in investment — while quietly confronting a much harder reality: AI is expensive, unpredictable, and far from profitable.
At the same time, some of the very people building this technology are warning we may be going too fast — even calling for a global pause.
And beyond Silicon Valley, a different story is emerging: growing public anxiety, political backlash, and the rise of what some are calling anti-AI populism.
So is AI entering its most pivotal moment yet — caught between financial pressure, technological risk, and political resistance?
AI Decoded Presenter Christian Fraser is joined by Financial Times AI Editor Madhumita Murgia, Thematic Strategist at Deutsche Bank Research Adrian Cox and Richard Coffin, Host of popular investing podcast ‘ The Plain Bagel’.

What's the point of promoting 'Improbotics'? Like the presenter said, they're manually typing in queries to OpenAI GPT-3 and selecting the best output & all the work they've done is just a TTS output…

Comedy is just about dead and buried at the BBC, so I should give the AI comedian a chance anyway. You've nothing to lose. You've lost it already.

i've been developing procedural texts/lyrics/music for about thirty years, before AI methods.
apart from other fine points people choose to ignore, it's hardly fair to allow humans to interpret and select everything you say.
AI can be continuously funny because they don't think like people who want to be cool. we're tired of that part.
just understand, proceduralism of any nature is akin to augury, anything you don't understand can be speaking to you.
