The world is a rapidly changing and sometimes scary place.

New technologies emerge and bring with the new challenges and fascinating new solutions.

Technology Untangled is here to help navigate this strange and exciting new world. Every

two weeks, we'll examine one way in which technology is changing society. We'll break down

the jargon, the confusion, and the spin to tell the true story behind the innovations,

from things like autonomous vehicles.

Every six months, I drive against the AI, and I drive the robot race car, and then I jump

out, and then the car tried to beat my lap time. So it's probably faster than 99.999% of the world's

population. But at one point, it will be faster than every human at any condition in every way.

To sports.

AI is capable of analyzing vast amounts of telemetric information and work out optimal pathways through that, why don't we try

this formation or why don't we try this attack pattern which can then be fed into athletes

who can then apply that into the game?

To emerging issues with the technology that's already very much embedded in our society.

What if 75% of banks, for example, rely on the same service providers in the back end,

maybe two, three levels abstracted and that provider fails,

and suddenly the financial system of the UK turns off.

We're looking at a situation of basically financial meltdown

that makes the 2008 crisis look like, you know, you just dropped your pocket money.
