A new material called graphene is being used in a light bulb which could see energy bills reduced by around 10 per cent. Graphene – a type of carbon – was discovered by two Russian scientists in Manchester University in 2004. It is stronger than steel, but can conduct electricity and heat more effectively.Vice-chancellor of Manchester University, Professor Colin Bailey, was part of the firm that developed the the graphene light bulb. He said its creation was just the beginning for the ”wonder material”.

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’.

And people say that "Russians haven't invented anything". Bitches please, without Russians you wouldn't have Google, Graphene and half of the discovered Algebra, Physics and Mathematics. Too bad that BBC and the West likes to shit on anything Russian and downplay Russia's contribution to the world.

The global elite won't make a profit off of this so it will never see the 'light' of day.
