This is a place where what many this week following phones to track the coronavirus. Of her hits you might recognise, how to come together and also the music for whilst staying apart. And now thats what ai calls music. The harry potter stage show, were created or worked on. And now it is being used to create something a little bit different. Imogen sings. Imogen has been working with Artificial Intelligence researcher, tom collins. Many of the underlying parts of this experimental, unreleased track were generated automatically by his ai algorithm. We are the shadows behind the shadows. I thought that was the ai in everything. No, i love it. I love the challenge of this is going to be different. It has generated a song i would never have written, because it is taking me into patterns i would normally have not done, so i have had to go, how would i do that . And how would i transition from this to this . Hello. We are still here. It is doing what i hoped it would do, which is what i believe ai and so are you so welcome. Will do for music and musicians, i hope you are well. Which is to push us to the next we are, and we have been working level of our own creativity. Hard on a new look click that will work when we cant get this song is still out and about as much. A work in progress. Imogen isnt the only major so my living room is now also my studio, and welcome to my sofa. Performer that tom has the good news is, though, you dontjust get to been working with. Look inside my house. Fade out. We get to look inside laras as well, performed by tom and his family so lets go to chez lara now. Hello, mate, how have you been . But composed in large part im 0k. Ive actually been pretty busy, albeit virtually, and luckily like you, i have one by the ai, tom is hoping this track of these in my house. It is funny that, isnt it, yeah. Could be the winner of the first how are you . Alright, thanks. Ever Artificial Intelligence eurovision song contest. Yeah, i think we both appreciate did someone say eurovision . Yes, well, coronavirus may have that we are lucky to still be forced off the human competition working, which keeps us busy this year the ai competition is still on. And keeps us in a good frame of mind, but i am missing what a relief. The ai song contest is a contest the people that i cant be with, and we are all adjusting here as well. For computers actually, in short. These are strange times. What we plan to do in the next few different teams from all over europe weeks is look at some technologies and australia are given the job and gadgets that will help you during lockdown, to create a new eurovision song whether that is to help you work or communicate or play with the help of ai. Or to help with the kids or to relieve stress, the german team databots have previously made a name which is what we are for themselves with their 24 7 live streams of ai generated death metal. Going to do first, because this is an anxious situation. Here is a taste. You have something that death metal plays. Well, if infinite death might help, right . Metal is not your thing, i have. This is the somnox sleep robot. Now, the idea is that maybe their ai eurovision entry that it sort of breathes next to you as you cuddle it. You are hearing now will be more your bag. It is designed for insomniacs and it has sensors on it. It has got an accelerometer and a c02 sensor, and it will track the breathing rate of its user, and it will breathe a fair bit slower than than the person using it. Funky music plays. 0riginally we were going for 100 the idea being if your ai generated approach, breathing rate drops, here we first tried it you are more likely by training our net on all to get off to sleep easily, of Germanys Eurovision songs, but i didnt have the but it it did not sound broadcast greatest time with it. Worthy, so instead we flipped it. I have to say, it felt quite odd holding onto it. We said, ok, let us approach this i can imagine, yeah. Like music producers just so i took it out of bed. Using these tools to enhance our workflow. Yeah, it really did. This is another entry. I put it on the floor called come together, and what was even stranger it was made by the swedish team. Was it was breathing all of the Machine Learning down on the floor. Algorithms we have seen are only but the thing i do have to say as smart as the data puts into them. Is when i tested it in the daytime by analysing mountains of existing on its relaxation mode, it did feel a little bit more like going to a yoga class and just getting your breathing songs, the idea is to try and learn right for that, so i can certainly see the relaxation purpose and maybe if i was a real the fundamental patterns insomniacs, it could help. That make up music. And there are so many ways we gave the neuron letter that we are seeing technology a huge amount of data, and what it does is it tries being used at the time of this pandemic. To extract patterns from the data, as the virus continues to spread, some governments around the world so it creates overtime new melodies have launched Contact Tracing apps that were not in the datasets, and they are brand new. Which they hope may help control it. In israel, the shield app records gps location, storing that data locally on a users device. So if someone gets the virus, twinkly music. They are asked if they are happy but to ai advances like this mean to share their data with the platform. That human composers are at risk so anyone they may have been of being replaced . Ed newton rex is a judge in contact with can be notified. In singapore, the trace together app is hoping to do the same, in the competition. But using bluetooth signals maybe in a way, we as people do not to monitor users phones want to think that al systems can be that have been nearby. Musically creative, and i think that is totally fair and totally understandable, but i think what we are saying is that should this method, some argue, not be the aim of ai composition. Is more privacy conscious. The aim should be to be a tool for musicians, i downloaded the app a way of inspiring them, a way of giving them because it isjust easier new musical ideas. Letting them may be input an idea and seeing what the ai system does with it. For the contract tracers this is an ai music competition, to contact me, or i could help them to contact other people but the humans have been if i was actually affected. An indispensable until these apps, Contact Tracing had been a very manual process. The person must be well enough part of the process. To answer your questions. He must be able to list down whether that will be true the details for humans in the future, though, may not be quite as certain. Where he went and what are things he did. Ai eurovision is now on, and often we cannot remember what happened. And we would love you to go the more we lose details, and visit the website, the more likely we cant control the epidemic effectively. Many more countries are looking listen to the tracks and vote to launch Contact Tracing apps. Whilst the uk is considering a similar one to singapore, for your favourite. The address is on the screen now. The eu is advocating a single app we have had a listen to the competing songs here. With Data Protection at its heart. What did you think, lara . So Contact Tracing is really vital, and here is why. People move. Well, for me, eurovision they move quickly is all about the theatre, and, of course, that is missing, and they move a long way. Which does take quite a lot away. Now, these visualisations and i thought most of them sounded quite computer generated, but maybe the idea was to are from a Company Called tectonics. Kind of go with that. It really did, didnt they . This was my favourite. Let me play it to you. What they did was they isolated 700,000 mobile devices in new york this one is called princesses, and they followed them and it was one of the belgian over just two days. Look how far they go in two days. Entries. Here we go. It reminds me a bit of a 60s right, all the way classic, particularly at the start. Across to the west coast. Here is italy in early march, double bass strums. So my favourite is from that well known european country, australia. It is uncanny valley. The lyrics are bonkers. And look how many people travelled dreams are cheap. To the uk by the end of march. They can leave me crazy. So Contact Tracing looks at the spread of covid i9 of course they can. By following particular people as they move around, but what these visualisations and then they start banging actually show is how people move on about the power of fire. About more generally, i want to know which bit and some governments are trying of that the ai thought up. To use this information to look anyway, we will play out with this. At how people are moving around, thank you so much forjoining us on this most unusual of programmes, but hopefully it worked for you. Even under lockdown conditions. Hopefully. And theyre not trying to get the data from individual mobile devices. You can keep up with the team throughout the week on facebook, instagram, youtube and they are going straight twitter at bbc click. To big mobile operators. See you next week, lara. One of those countries is norway. See you on social media. Thanks for watching. 0slo is usually a bustling city see you soon. Of almost 700,000 people, 0h. Welcome home. But like other places around the world, lockdown is now in force 0 o o oh. Welcome home, welcome home. To slow infection rates. Oh, oh, oh. However, outside the capital, it is vital to understand how the epidemic is spreading throughout the rest of the country. Telenor is norways hello once again. While some areas saw a really largest mobile operator, glorious end to thursday, the cloud began to fill with 80 of all data traffic in across some parts passing through its infrastructure. Of the british isles, especially in the south. So it knows roughly where signs of a change, each phone is throughout the day to the extent that there as that phone hops between is in the forecast a little different base stations. Bit of rain on the way for some areas. Telenor then provide and, for many of you, the user location data that will be really quite to the Norway Institute welcome after a really of Public Health dry start to april. To try and track now, a waft of cloud was all that we really got the spread of covid i9. From this major area of low in our systems, there pressure, throwing belts is knowledge about where people are at basically any time. Of weather ever further towards the north. So the trick here is to understand but this is the direction that how the population is moving on an aggregated level. Were looking in over the next few days to see these areas of cloud, bringing perhaps a little bit more in the way so if you understand of significant rainfall to some how people are moving around, as we get through friday, then you are also able to understand how disease is potentially spreading and indeed on into the weekend. First signs of that across a country change really getting into the south western counties of england quite early on friday morning. Elsewhere, its a dry enough and a fine enough start. Or across continents. Youll see that this rain around about lunchtime and the early afternoon gets into the south and central parts of wales, but it struggles to get north of the m4 corridor. The niph takes this data, and elsewhere, away combines it with other information relating to covid i9 infections from the North Eastern shores and then uses a mathematical model that simulates the of england, where again theres spread of the virus a fair amount of cloud to try and predict how many cases and an onshore breeze, are expected in each region and when. And still that onshore breeze we have data on hospitalisations in norway since the start of the epidemic. And we have data on the cases of imported registered cases into the eastern side of scotland, well, theres dry to norway since the start of the epidemic. And bright weather to be had we can lift, for instance, restrictions, to western scotland, we can open the schools and Northern Ireland and the north west of england. And here, well see the temperatures come into the teens. Close schools and things like this, 0n the east coast, though, eight or nine degrees only. Through the course of friday evening, that rain again begins and we can use a model to inform us to make a little bit of progress into the northern parts of wales. There are odd heavier, thundery bursts perhaps just trying to get across the channel into the southern about what is the effect counties of england. Of doing that. Saturday not a great deal we are primarily forecasting of difference, just that well for the next three weeks see further pulses of showery so that we can look at rain just trying to work what need will there be their way that little for hospital beds bit further north. And for intensive care, so its saturday where we may and that is very important well see the odd showery burst for planning in the Health Services. Of rain just trying to get the effect is not only into the north of england, on the epidemic itself, but on Public Health overall, maybe flirting with Northern Ireland, but the bulk will be found across the midlands and towards wales as well. Not a great deal changing in the overall setup, so again the temperatures on the east coast around about eight or nine degrees. But inland, well be looking at somewhere comfortably into the teens. Come sunday, it looks as though and on the economy were in for essentially and society overall, that we will be able a dry day. Perhaps more cloud just coming through modelling to tackle, up through the irish sea manage this epidemic in a much better way into Northern Ireland, than the world with the chance of a burst has been able to of rain here, but elsewhere its dry and fine. During prior epidemics or pandemics. And by this stage, at last, at last, we can talk however, as always, anonymity about double figure temperatures on the east coast. Is one of the major worries, even in times of international emergency. We are extremely cautious when it comes to privacy and what we are very afraid of is that individuals can be re identified from the data. We count only groups of people larger than 20, because we believe it is very, very hard to re identify all individuals in groups larger than 20. This isnt the first time that telenor has used mobile phone data to track the spread of diseases. Previously, it has worked in bangladesh to track malaria and pakistan for dengue fever. The models have helped the governments there design more Effective National response preparedness. Around the world, countries including the uk, austria, israel and the us are all seeking to work with mobile operators to adopt similar models to norway to try and prepare and possibly even contain the virus. Hello and welcome to the week in tech. It was the week that tesla showed a prototype of its newly designed ventilators to help address the shortage in hospitals. Amazon reserved space on its site for healthcare workers to buy covid i9 supplies, including n95 face masks and hand sanitiser, and uber built a tool to help its drivers and other gig economy workers in the us to find temporary roles at other companies during the pandemic. Conspiracy theories spreading online linking 56 technology to the coronavirus has led to at least 20 mobile phone masts being attacked in the uk according to mobile phone operators. Vodafone and ee said their masts had been set on fire, and key worker engineers harassed. Meanwhile injapan, graduates have been able to celebrate their hard earned work and maintain social distancing with the help of robots. Students at tokyo Business Breakthrough University were awarded their diplomas while operating telepresence robots Via Video Conferencing app zoom. Self isolating classmates were also present at the ceremony and also watching through zoom. Quibi launched its mobile based streaming service in north america and the uk. Content on the app is limited to ten minutes or less, and viewers can flip between landscape and portrait modes. And finally, if you have been missing the orchestra while stuck at home, now is your welcome to bbc news. Chance to visit online. 215 musicians from the im simon pusey. Stay at home choir got together our top stories and gave their debut performance President Trump sets out his plan to re open the american economy. Of vivaldis gloria. Our team of experts now agrees we can begin the next front singing the choir is open for submissions in our war, which were calling for their next rendition. 0pening up america again. For many, religion offers the lockdown in the uk is extended by at least three some spiritual calm, but of course at the moment, more weeks, but were told there is light at the end communities cant get together of the tunnel. Campaigners warn that in the way that they normally would. Coronavirus lockdowns will lead to a pandemic of domestic abuse. We hear about the yes, so religious leaders are doing what they can to work around this. Situation in colombia. This muslim call to prayer in egypt plus, the 99 year old british has been replaced by a message army veteran whos completed a charity walk in his garden urging people to stay home to pray. Raising millions for Health Service workers. And the jewish festival of passover started this week, and that has been looking a little different too. We wash our hands. Rabbi mendel cohen here has been doing his best to connect with his community online. As well as videos of what would be happening in synagogue, here, he is demonstrating how the seder, the first dinner of passover, is set up. And this easters sunday service will also be different. Sophia smith gaylor has been finding out how religions are adapting. With Mass Gatherings being banned, many religions have had to stop public worship. And with churches closing, many have had to be particularly innovative, with some turning to Live Streaming. Good morning, everyone. This is terribly exciting. St james in Sussex Gardens in london is one of the churches thats been experimenting online. We were determined that the worshipping life of the church should continue, but it would have to continue in new and unexpected ways. When the Coronavirus Crisis started, they began Live Streaming their services on facebook. But they havent stopped at that. We have a large group of families, large number of children, so we wanted really to provide something that would speak to them, comfort them, encourage them and build them up in the faith, so, yes, we threw our all into a rather madcap virtual sunday school. Its palm sunday every week we send out a e sunday, which contains within it the readings for the day and other notices and other devotional materials, and also an activity, so families download the activity. We are going to make our very own. This week, we made crafts for easter. For palm sunday. Yeah, for palm sunday. And then about two weeks ago, we made this virgin mary. Yeah, its been a lovely way to maintain continuity now that normal life has been. Theres a bit of a hiatus in normal life and it has been a lovely way to sort of maintain a sense of normality. There has been a big focus on web resources, like achurchnearyou. Com, that is our church finder. It has been a really, really key resource for us in recent weeks. We have now got more than 3,000 Lifestream Services listed on that site. As someone who is a regular churchgoer myself, i cant wait for that day when, on that sunday, i can walk back into my church and see family, loved ones and friends for the first time. Im feel slightly emotional about that. Sister never all of these digital responses to this crisis have undoubtedly changed how people interact with faith online. But what will be interesting to see is how much of it will remain after the Coronavirus Crisis is over. That was sophia smith gaylor, and i am joined online now, by the archbishop of Canterbury Justin welby. Archbishop justin, thanks for taking the time to talk to us. Spencer, it is a great privilege to be with you. I am very happy to be here. We have just talked about some of the new online tools and services that the church is providing. How do you think they will benefit people . You will have seen, and i know you have seen, churches using Live Streaming, which is having a huge impact. There is a service a couple of weeks ago which reached 12 million people, ten times our normal total church attendance. That is remarkable. You couldnt begin to do that in the past. The best you could have had was a nationally televised service. Here you can have everything from a nationally televised service to something that is just relevant to your village, your town, your part of a city, your part of the world. Or you canjoin in something from anywhere in the world. We had comments from something i did online i wont to say from where, but a country where it is very difficult to be a christian in public, you are not allowed to worship or own your faith in public and they had a message saying, i havent been able to go to church, but i have justjoined in a service with the archbishop of canterbury. There is a cloud to every silver lining, but i think the service was what mattered. And technology is transforming the reach, the ability to comfort, console and encourage. It is a time of several religious festivals at the moment, it is easter, it is passover, ramadan is coming up too, and this is traditionally a time where families and friends would come together. There will be people who want to come to a church. What would you say to them . Well, what i would say to them is, you know, that is me as well. The idea of not being at an Easter Service, i cant remember any time i have not been at an Easter Service in the last more than a0 years. And so it is going to be very strange but in the earliest centuries of christian history, church was in the home. And these wonderful buildings we have in the uk, these amazing historical buildings, are treasures, but they are not essentials. We can worship, and christians all over the world do, and so it is going to be very strange but in the earliest centuries of christian history, church was in the home.
