Im stephen sackur. Wherever you live, however you live, Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, is going to change your life in the next few years. Will it be for the better . Well, there are Tech Visionaries with very different views some benign, others, dystopian. But on one thing, the futurists can agree what will matter most to the outcome isnt The Machines, its the humans. My guest, neil lawrence, is a professor of Machine Learning who says we face a choice. Either we use alas a tool or we will become a tool for al. So, which is more likely . Neil lawrence, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you very much for having me. Its a great pleasure to have you. Now, you are a computer scientist, but it seems to me, as youve journeyed deep into the potentiality of Artificial Intelligence, youve also thought a great deal about Human Intelligence and what is so very special and unique about us humans. Can you try to put that into words . Yeah, i think, for me, what weve seen with a lot of the art
Otherwise, temperatures generally in the high teens to low 20s for scotland and Northern Ireland, and about 20 to 23 widely across england and wales.

Neil lawrence, welcome to hardtalk. Thank you very much for having me. It s a great pleasure to have you. Now, you are a computer scientist, but it seems to me, as you ve journeyed deep into the potentiality of artificial intelligence, you ve also thought a great deal about human intelligence and what is so very special and unique about us humans. Can you try to put that into words? yeah, i think, for me, what we ve seen with a lot of the artificial intelligence debate has been a sort of naturally narcissistic in tendency to think about our intelligence. And what i think it does is offers the opportunity to introspect about our intelligence, to stand in a different place, to look at a different type of information processing, that that s done by a computer, and use our understanding of that, which we built and created, so we understand it, to look back and think about what s special about us. Is intelligence the right word to use when it comes to discussing what machines can do in this
