The tenth of October, at ten in the morning, gives you 101010.

Read that as binary and it is the number 42.

Ask a search engine why that matters. Or just ask AI.

The film

Twelve thousand generations, and then us

Modern humans have been on Earth for about 12,000 generations. All that effort, hardship, love, laughter, sadness, battle, stress and joy, passing information from father to son and mother to daughter, just to get us where we are today.

Then, three generations ago, the term artificial intelligence was used to describe an idea. That idea now touches every part of our lives. So it needs a day.

More films

Two more, for the feed.

People are odd. We collect things, we name things, we give a day to almost everything. And the one thing rewriting all of it does not have a day yet.
Standing on the shoulders of giants. Six words on the edge of a two pound coin, and what they have to do with a machine that can read a scroll nobody can unroll.

The countdown

A daily countdown of AI related stories

One a day, every day, until 9 October. Then we enjoy the day itself, and the next morning the count starts again at 364.
