| 6/23/26 |  Viva technology! | Shiona McCallum visits a huge technology show in Paris. There, she finds some of the latest kit that could be in your home or workplace before too long. And we're talking about data centres. They are central to our modern online lives. But not everyone thinks they are great. Shiona speaks to the head of a big global data centre company about some of the challenges facing the industry.Presenter: Shiona McCallum Producer: Tom Quinn(Photo: Shiona McCallum tries on some wearable tech at VivaTech in Paris.

| 6/16/26 |  ChatGPT prompt generates disturbing images | A group of cybersecurity researchers found a prompt which gets past ChatGPT’s guardrails and causes it to generate some disturbing images. We unpack what this tells us about the way AI is trained, and how it could be exploited. Also on the show, after a recent episode about potholes, we were contacted by the UK’s ministry of transport. We speak to their chief scientific adviser about potholes and the future of transport. And what is a quantum diamond magnetometer? We speak to the company which has just put one into space – in order to measure where magnetic north really is.Presenter: Chris Vallance Producer: Imran Rahman-Jones(Image: A phone with the white and black ChatGPT logo on it.
