CES 2016: BBC reporter breaks ‘world’s safest drone’ – BBC News

Published

on



A Belgian start-up has taken an unusual looking drone to the CES tech show. Fleye keeps its moving parts inside a cage covered with a protective grid, which the firm says means it can bump into people without the risk of injury. It has led the firm to claim that it is on verge of creating the “world’s safest drone” – an important consideration at a time when incidents involving unmanned aircraft are on the rise. However, as BBC Click’s Jen Copestake discovered, the prototype is rather accident-prone.

    Man. Those guys got fucked by that reporter. Now one of their earliest marketing videos is a demonstration of how breakable the design is, that's a black mark regardless of the promises they make to fix it.

Cyber Attack: Ransomware causing chaos globally – BBC News

Published

on



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.

Is this AI’s moment of truth? | BBC News

Published

on



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’.
