Becoming AI – Your Journey to Assimilation? - Matt Jones 56:53

14h ago56:53

56:53

Wittgenstein wrote: “If a lion could talk, we would not understand it”. That is, as lions and humans are not of the same material, they could not say anything meaningful to each other. AI is not like us; the only way we can have a relationship with it is for us to become like it. We will look at how digital services are already making us machine-li…

This lecture argues that limitarianism is compatible with so…

The Great God Pan: Lord of the Wild - Ronald Hutton 44:54

12d ago44:54

44:54

Pan started as a shepherds’ god in a wild and backward area of Greece, but became one of the best-known in the Greek and Roman world. This was partly because the leading city of Athens imported him as a saviour, and partly because he came to represent the freedom, peace and simplicity of the countryside to urban people. He was the most earthy of Gr…

China’s Economic Prospects on the Cusp - George Magnus 53:18

53:18

China has important islands of technological excellence, even dominance, but these islands exist in a sea of macroeconomic imbalances and headwinds.

Many western economists and even …

Ocean: The Liquid Engine That Dominates Our Planet 54:23

22d ago54:23

54:23

We often talk about living on a blue planet, but when we think we’re talking about the ocean we’re generally only discussing what’s in it: fish, whales, pollution and ships. But that is to miss the biggest story on Earth, because it’s the water itself that sets the scene for everything else. This lecture will outline how the ocean engine works – it…

Music of Animals - Milton Mermikides 51:33

26d ago51:33

51:33

Do animals make music? Are the languages of whales and birds truly songs? To answer this, we must first understand what we mean by music as human animals—and how it might emerge across the animal kingdom. From Messiaen’s transcriptions of bird calls to the rhythmic gaits of horses echoing in the blues, we’ll hear how animal behaviours form an unwit…

Whither War; Whither the Law of War - Professor Sir Geoffrey Nice KC 1:01:09

1M ago1:01:09

1:01:09

How might we change the way we – and all our leaders think – so that we never go to war? The war between Russia and Ukraine, as well as the conflict in Gaza, have galvanised thinking about, and action by, the bodies administering, the laws of war. National court processes - applying ‘universal jurisdiction’ for example – may bring international war…

From Tyranny to Athenian Democracy - Melissa Lane 49:38

1M ago49:38

49:38

When – and how – did Athenian democracy begin? There is no unambiguous answer to this question. This lecture explores one plausible origin: the popular uprising in 508 BCE overthrowing foreign invaders (who had previously expelled an Athenian-bred family of tyrants). In the aftermath of that revolution, the Athenians – led by Kleisthenes – reorgani…

How is mathematical knowledge recorded and preserved across generations?

We will explore the heritage-making found in two…

Why Do We Fear? - Robin May 45:14

2M ago45:14

45:14

Fear is one of the earliest emotions to have evolved. Most vertebrates – and possibly some invertebrates – show fear when they are threatened. At its most core, fear keeps us alive, helping us flee from predators or avoid dangerous environments. But why does this process sometimes backfire, leaving us paralysed by otherwise harmless phobias? And wh…

Hitler, Jesus & How to Win a Culture War - Alec Ryrie 45:51

45:51

Since 1945 Hitler and the Nazis have been the Western world’s one fixed moral reference point: the way we know what evil is. But that consensus has always been more fragile than it felt, and now it is unravelling. This lecture will trace how we came to build our values around the memory of the Second World War, why that consensus isn’t enough to de…

How It Ends: What We Know about the Fate of the Universe - Chris Lintott 49:41

2M ago49:41

49:41

How will it all end? Predicting the far future of our Universe depends on understanding its present. This lecture starts with what seems to be a paradox in modern cosmology: that we have a model that does a fantastic job of explaining what we see, but which says 95% of the Universe is in forms (dark matter and dark energy) that we don’t understand.…

The Shape of Hands: Symmetry, Chirality and Handedness - Alain Goriely 57:23

The reflection of my right hand in a mirror is a left hand that looks similar yet is very different from the right. Many natural structures such as proteins, climbing vines, and seashells exhibit the same property known as chirality. Some of these objects are clearly left-handed, some are right-handed, some are both. The ultimate origin of chiralit…

Planet Earth is an intricate and interconnected system, with some fundamental rules that we usually ignore. But we are part of our planet, not separate to it or just perched on top of it. This lecture will consider the two primary rules of Earth: that energy continually flows through the system (in from the Sun and then out again to space) and that…
