Description

THIS WEEK ON TECH'S MESSAGE Nate and Ian discuss how Pokemon Go is sweeping the UK and what the launch has done in terms of initial download numbers across the country's mobile networks; also, in a special feature, we have not only a dramatic reading of a new Harry Potter chapter as written by artificial intelligence but also an interview with the AI's creator, Max Deutsch (read the rest on Medium); and the UK's driving tests are being trialled with a GPS navigation component and the government has launched an open consultation for how things like insurance should be dealt with in a post-human driverless car world.
