Renowned British journalist, Southampton Pro-Chancellor, alumnus, bestselling author, political insider, and presenter of the chart-topping podcast The News Agents, we are thrilled to welcome Jon Sopel back for another In Conversation event. In 2022, after eight years reporting from the heart of American politics, Jon returned to the UK to find British politics drastically transformed. During this live In Conversation event, Jon and Russell will dissect the political upheavals, societal shifts, and cultural nuances that have reshaped the political landscape on both sides of the Atlantic. With his characteristic wit and clarity, Jon will offer a personal exploration of the changes that have redefined his homeland, alongside his thoughts on 'life across the pond', including the return of President Trump to the White House. There is sure to be plenty to discuss!

This talk reviews the challenges posed by the explosive growth of data generated by facilities such as the Diamond Synchrotron and the CryoEM Facilities at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory. Scientists are beginning to use machine learning and AI tech to automate parts of the data pipeline and to find new scientific discoveries. The ‘Deep Learning’ neural networks discovered in 2012 have already transformed many areas of computer science. Most recently these Deep Learning networks have created powerful ‘chatbots’ such as ChatGPT. The talk concludes with a vision of how this ‘AI for Science’ agenda can be truly transformative for many areas of scientific discovery. Click on "View Details" to access the recording.
