Martin Hamilton - Librarians in Outer Space - CILIP invited talk
Let’s play: Utopia or dystopia?
Martin Hamilton - Librarians in Outer Space - CILIP invited talk
1. Driverless (or self-driving, or
autonomous) cars (lorries, buses…)
- blessed relief, or frankly terrifying?
2. Space tourism - fancy a weekend
break on the moon?
3. Smart homes - from Internet
connected locks to toothbrushes
4. DNA editing (CRISPR/Cas9) - we can
rebuild you (or your unborn child)
Actually Brunel University, even if it looks a bit like
some kind of Martian habitat

AI meets Shakespeare
Martin Hamilton - Librarians in Outer Space - CILIP invited talk
From http://karpathy.github.io/2015/05/21/rnn-effectiveness/
VIOLA:Why, Salisbury must find his flesh and thought
That which I am not aps, not a man and in fire,
To show the reining of the raven and the wars
To grace my hand reproach within, and not a fair are hand,
That Caesar and my goodly father's world;
When I was heaven of presence and our fleets,
We spare with hours, but cut thy council I am great,
Murdered and by thy master's ready there
My power to give thee but so much as hell:
Some service in the noble bondman here,
Would show him to her wine.
KING LEAR: O, if you were a feeble sight, the courtesy of your law,
Your sight and several breath, will wear the gods
With his heads, and my hands are wonder'd at the deeds,
So drop upon your lordship's head, and your opinion
Shall be against your honour.
