Jon Whittle busts the Hollywood sci-fi myth that artificial intelligence is out to replace humans. We learn the history of AI from WW2 code-breaking machines to computer chess players that beat world champions, and hear how artificial intelligence is already very much a part of our daily lives. Jon and our experts break down the difference between data-driven AI and deep learning, and tell us whether AI will ever be able to fall in...

Jon Whittle speaks to experts and musicians to find out how AI can be used as a tool by artists to push creative boundaries. We’ll learn the difference between how babies learn versus AI and ask ...
From smart watches to mammogram readers, artificial intelligence is revolutionising health care. In this episode, we’ll hear from a radiologist who is using AI scanners to increase the efficiency of breast cancer scans, and an engineer creating chatbots for kids with Autism Spectrum Disorder. We’ll learn how the AI in chatbots works, and touch on how the medical field can navigate bias in health data.
This episode takes us from AI identifying birds in the bush and fish in the sea to helping locate destructive Crown-of-thorns starfish in the Great Barrier Reef. We’ll hear a number of examples of how, when combined with the work of scientific researchers and everyday citizen scientists, AI can be used as a tool to assist in animal population monitoring and rehabilitating ecosystems.
Since the origin of data analytics in baseball, artificial intelligence now features in almost every sport.

In this episode, we hear from experts and athletes about how AI is changing sports, and to...
How would the discovery of life on a nearby planet change our understanding of life on Earth? AI is playing a pivotal role in space exploration, from analysing sound waves within stars to mapping galaxies, and helping space explorers land rovers autonomously on nearby planets. In the final episode of Everyday AI, we’re looking up and out to the stars with astrophysicists, astronomers and space engineers.
Struggling and overwhelmed teachers. Bored and disengaged students. AI is shaking things up in the classroom. Will AI replace teachers or help them manage their increasing workloads?
