A brief history of DNA, the story of genetics and how we're culturally predisposed to misunderstand it.
Adam Rutherford is a scientist, author, broadcaster and geek. On radio, he is the presenter of BBC Radio 4 (InSide Science) as well as many documentaries on scientific fraud, inheritance of intelligence, MMR and autism, human evolution, astronomy and art, and the evolution of sex. Being a self-claimed movie geek, he has also been scientific advisor to Björk's movie Biophilia Live,
Adam has a PhD in genetics, is a former Editor at the journal Nature, and will give a brief history of DNA, the story of genetics and how we're culturally predisposed to misunderstand it.
http://www.ub.uio.no/om/aktuelt/arrangementer/ureal/science-debate/2015/Adam%20Rutherford.html
This is a story about you.
It is the history of who you are and how you came to be. It is unique to you, as it is to each of the 100 billion modern humans who have ever drawn breath. But it is also our collective story, because in every one of our genomes we each carry the history of our species - births, deaths, disease, war, famine, migration and a lot of sex.
Since scientists first read the human genome in 2001 it has been subject to all sorts of claims, counterclaims and myths. In fact, as Adam Rutherford explains, our genomes should be read not as instruction manuals, but as epic poems. DNA determines far less than we have been led to believe about us as individuals, but vastly more about us as a species.
In this captivating journey through the expanding landscape of genetics, Adam Rutherford reveals what our genes now tell us about history, and what history tells us about our genes. From Neanderthals to murder, from redheads to race, dead kings to plague, evolution to epigenetics, this is a demystifying and illuminating new portrait of who we are and how we came to be.

Professor Richard Dawkins discusses the influences and inspirations that have shaped his life and thinking.
Chatting to science broadcaster Adam Rutherford in the world-famous Ri Lecture Theatre, the pioneering scientist and public thinker reveals how he developed an "appetite for wonder" for the biological sciences.
From his upbringing in Nairobi and Nyasaland (now Malawi) to his early experiences with religion, Dawkins talks about his motivations for becoming a scientist and his experiences at Oxford University and Berkeley, California during a period of social and political unrest.
Find out how he arrived at the idea of the "selfish gene" -- the basis of his seminal 1976 publication, one of the best-selling popular science books ever written -- and discover more about his research and writing process.
Plus, the Ri audience ask a range of revealing questions -- from how he overcome his natural shyness and stutter at school to what his advice would be to an 18 year old who wants to get into popular science.

Geneticist and self-proclaimed geek, Adam Rutherford talks about his new book, Creation: The Origin of Life/The Future of Life, and what hip-hop can teach us about synthetic biology.
Our 40,000-year obsession with remixing organisms began with the earliest figurative art, and via Enfields, Jackalopes and the Bavarian Wölpertinger, became a reality with the advent of genetic engineering. This year, we celebrate not only the 60th anniversary of the structure of DNA, but the 40th anniversary of both the invention of gene manipulation by Paul Berg, and of hip-hop by DJ Kool Herc. These things are more closely tied than is immediately apparent. The evolution of music is notably similar to biological evolution, and the arrival of sampling closely mimics synthetic biology as wholesale pieces of other organisms are swapped to add functions and behaviours for our purposes. And now, as with the copyright issues that strangled creativity in hip hop, patents in genetics act as crippling hindrances to scientific progress.
Adam Rutherford is a geneticist, writer and broadcaster, whose work includes the award-winning series The Cell (BBC4), The Gene Code (BBC4), Horizon: 'Playing God' (BBC2) as well as numerous programmes for BBC Radio 4. He is an editor at the science journal Nature, writes for The Guardian and has given numerous prestigious lectures, as well as appearing in the 'Uncaged Monkeys' tour.

Creationism and evolution tackled head-on in science lessons

Are some science teachers failing their pupils by not confronting creationist arguments when they come up during lessons on evolution? In this film presented by science journalist Dr Adam Rutherford made to mark the 150th anniversary of Darwin's Origin of Species in 2009 Prof Michael Reiss from the Institute of Education, University of London, said many science teachers felt uncomfortable talking about religion, but that refusing to engage with pupils who had creationist views would be counterproductive (a viewpoint that would later get him into trouble). Dr Jeremy Pritchard at the University of Birmingham, and London's Natural History Museum, explain how they are trying to redress the balance

Adam Rutherford
Adam Rutherford (born 1974/1975) is a British geneticist, author, and broadcaster. He was an editor for the journal Nature for a decade, is a frequent contributor to the newspaper The Guardian, hosts the BBC Radio 4 programme Inside Science, has produced several science documentaries and has published books related to genetics and the origin of life.
Early life and academic career
Rutherford, who is half Guyanese Indian, was born in Ipswich in the East of England and attended Ipswich School.
He was admitted to the medical school at University College London, but transferred to a degree in evolutionary genetics, including a project under Steve Jones studying stalk-eyed flies. He completed a Ph.D. in genetics at UCL Institute of Child Health at Great Ormond Street Hospital in 2002. His PhD thesis subject was the role of a specific gene (CHX10) on eye development, with focus on the effect of mutations in this gene on the development of eye disorders.
Rutherford's other academic research was also on genetic causes of eye disorders, including the relation of retinoschisin to retinoschisis, the role of mutations of the gene CRX in retinal dystrophy, and the role of the gene CHX10 in microphthalmia in humans and mice.

Adam
Adam (Hebrew: אָדָם; Aramaic/Syriac: ܐܕܡ; Arabic: آدم) is a figure from the Book of Genesis who is also mentioned in the New Testament, the deuterocanonical books, the Quran, the Book of Mormon, and the Book of Iqan. According to the creation myth of the Abrahamic religions, he was the first human.
In the Genesis creation narratives, he was created by Yahweh-Elohim ("Yahweh-God", the god of Israel), though the term "adam" can refer to both the first individual person, as well as to the general creation of humankind. Christian churches differ on how they view Adam's subsequent behavior of disobeying God (often called the Fall of man), and to the consequences that those actions had on the rest of humanity. Christian and Jewish teachings sometimes hold Adam and Eve (the first woman) to a different level of responsibility for the Fall, though Islamic teaching holds both equally responsible. In addition, Islam holds that Adam was eventually forgiven, while Christianity holds that redemption occurred only later through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ. The Bahá'í Faith, Islam and some Christian denominations consider Adam to be the first prophet.

1:18:52What is the truth about 'post-factual politics'?
What is the truth about 'post-factual politics'?What is the truth about 'post-factual politics'?
The US presidential campaign and the Brexit referendum result both fuelled concerns about the rise of ‘post-truth politics’, with many painting 2016 as the dawn of a ‘post-factual era’. Almost the whole global economic, scientific and financial establishment lined up to warn of the consequences of Brexit, but 52% of the country ignored them. Accusations followed that people voted with their heart. It is assumed that if only the public ‘understood expert advice’ they would follow it; that there is no room for legitimate disagreement or debate. Have experts been over-reaching into areas where what is needed is not so much facts as political principles? Or if the facts are dismissed, will society sink into the mire of prejudice and superstition? Filmed at the Battle of Ideas the debate heats up as Professor Frank Furedi compellingly argues that ‘fact checking’ is a way of avoiding confronting ideas and values. The speakers are: Professor Frank Furedi, sociologist and social commentator; author, What's Happened to the University?, Power of Reading: from Socrates to Twitter, On Tolerance and Authority: a sociological history; Josh Lowe, European politics reporter, Newsweek; Professor Neena Modi, professor of neonatal medicine, consultant in neonatal medicine, Chelsea and Westminster NHS Foundation Trust; president, Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health; Dr Adam Rutherford, geneticist, author, Creation and A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived: The Story In our Genes; presenter, Inside Science and The Cell.

Adam Rutherford - Chaos of DelightAdam Rutherford - Chaos of Delight
On the 28th February 1832, as he voyaged on the Beagle, Charles Darwin wrote in his diary of the experience of being in a Brazilian rainforest. He wrote, "The delight one experiences in such times bewilders the mind, if the eye attempts to follow the flight of a gaudy butter-fly, it is arrested by some strange tree or fruit; if watching an insect one forgets it in the stranger flower it is crawling over, if turning to admire the splendour of the scenery, the individual character of the foreground fixes the attention. The mind is a chaos of delight, out of which a world of future and more quiet pleasure will arise". To us, it is one of Darwin's most beautiful passages and when interviewing over 150 people for The Incomplete Map of the Cosmic Genome, we asked most of our guests when they had experienced such a 'Chaos of Delight'. Here is Dr Adam Rutherford. His latest book 'A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived' is out now. Many of these mini-episodes have previously only been available to Cosmic Genome subscribers, some have never ever been seen before, but now we are releasing them here on Cosmic Shambles. Enjoy.

Part 1 of 4: Sir Paul Nurse with Dr. Adam Rutherford – Alan Howard Foundation / JW3 Speaker SeriesPart 1 of 4: Sir Paul Nurse with Dr. Adam Rutherford – Alan Howard Foundation / JW3 Speaker Series
With a referendum on Britain's membership of the European Union in the offing, leading British scientist, Sir Paul Nurse, told a packed audience at JW3 cultural centre in London on 17th December 2015 that Britain ought to remain a member, because it was best for science. Along with the general public, the audience was comprised of a large number of students fromPaddington Academy, City of London School, Jewish Community Secondary School and Imperial College London, who were given free tickets on behalf of The Alan Howard Foundation. A Nobel Laureate for Physiology or Medicine, founding Director of The Francis Crick Institute and former President of the Royal Society, Sir Paul said the EU's money, size and freedom of movement policy supported the work of Britain's laboratories. In a wide-ranging discussion with broadcaster, writer and fellow geneticist, Dr. Adam Rutherford, the two scientists talked about government support for science and its status in Britain. Having successfully pushed for increased government funding during the latest spending review, Sir Paul said "The UK does take science fairly seriously, certainly our political masters, they do listen to scientists." However, Britain's laboratories received less funding than other G8 nations, and this needed to be improved, Sir Paul added. "This is a serious issue. We do very good science, but we're just above dysfunctionality," he warned. With 1700 scientists, the new, one million square foot Francis Crick Institute at St Pancras will "possibly" be the largest bio-medical research facility in the world and will be run on "slightly anarchic" lines, with no departments, said Sir Paul. The new building opens in 2016. "My approach is rather than to direct top down and tell people what to do, is to give freedom to be truly creative," Sir Paul explained. During this third conversation in the second season of The Alan Howard Foundation/ JW3 Speaker Series, Sir Paul said science reporting by the media had improved. Referring to Brian Cox and Sir David Attenborough, he said, "When we have a good science presenter we should nurture them, and there are some brilliant ones. The problem is some of my colleagues snipe at them at a bit, [because] they're good looking, and they're good on camera." -

Adam Rutherford on A Brief History of Everyone who Ever Lived
This is a story about you. It is the history of who you are and how you came to be. It is unique to you, as it is to each of the 100 billion modern humans who have ever drawn breath. But it is also our collective story, because in every one of our genomes we each carry the history of our species - births, deaths, disease, war, famine, migration and a lot of sex. Since scientists first read the human genome in 2001 it has been subject to all sorts of claims, counterclaims and myths. In fact, as Adam Rutherford explains, our genomes should be read not as instruction manuals, but as epic poems. DNA determines far less than we have been led to believe about us as individuals, but vastly more about us as a species.

Adam Rutherford on Creation, synthetic biology and hip-hop
Geneticist and self-proclaimed geek, Adam Rutherford talks about his new book, Creation: The Origin of Life/The Future of Life, and what hip-hop can teach us about synthetic biology. Our 40,000-year obsession with remixing organisms began with the earliest figurative art, and via Enfields, Jackalopes and the Bavarian Wölpertinger, became a reality with the advent of genetic engineering. This year, we celebrate not only the 60th anniversary of the structure of DNA, but the 40th anniversary of both the invention of gene manipulation by Paul Berg, and of hip-hop by DJ Kool Herc. These things are more closely tied than is immediately apparent. The evolution of music is notably similar to biological evolution, and the arrival of sampling closely mimics synthetic biology as wholesale pieces of...

What is the truth about 'post-factual politics'?
The US presidential campaign and the Brexit referendum result both fuelled concerns about the rise of ‘post-truth politics’, with many painting 2016 as the dawn of a ‘post-factual era’. Almost the whole global economic, scientific and financial establishment lined up to warn of the consequences of Brexit, but 52% of the country ignored them. Accusations followed that people voted with their heart. It is assumed that if only the public ‘understood expert advice’ they would follow it; that there is no room for legitimate disagreement or debate. Have experts been over-reaching into areas where what is needed is not so much facts as political principles? Or if the facts are dismissed, will society sink into the mire of prejudice and superstition? Filmed at the Battle of Ideas the debate heats...

Professor Richard Dawkins discusses the influences and inspirations that have shaped his life and thinking.
Chatting to science broadcaster Adam Rutherford in the world-famous Ri Lecture Theatre, the pioneering scientist and public thinker reveals how he developed an "appetite for wonder" for the biological sciences.
From his upbringing in Nairobi and Nyasaland (now Malawi) to his early experiences with religion, Dawkins talks about his motivations for becoming a scientist and his experiences at Oxford University and Berkeley, California during a period of social and political unrest.
Find out how he arrived at the idea of the "selfish gene" -- the basis of his seminal 1976 publication, one of the best-selling popular science books ever written -- and discover more about his research and writing process.
Plus, the Ri audience ask a range of revealing questions -- from how he overcome his natural shyness and stutter at school to what his advice would be to an 18 year old who wants to get into popular science.

Geneticist and self-proclaimed geek, Adam Rutherford talks about his new book, Creation: The Origin of Life/The Future of Life, and what hip-hop can teach us about synthetic biology.
Our 40,000-year obsession with remixing organisms began with the earliest figurative art, and via Enfields, Jackalopes and the Bavarian Wölpertinger, became a reality with the advent of genetic engineering. This year, we celebrate not only the 60th anniversary of the structure of DNA, but the 40th anniversary of both the invention of gene manipulation by Paul Berg, and of hip-hop by DJ Kool Herc. These things are more closely tied than is immediately apparent. The evolution of music is notably similar to biological evolution, and the arrival of sampling closely mimics synthetic biology as wholesale pieces of other organisms are swapped to add functions and behaviours for our purposes. And now, as with the copyright issues that strangled creativity in hip hop, patents in genetics act as crippling hindrances to scientific progress.
Adam Rutherford is a geneticist, writer and broadcaster, whose work includes the award-winning series The Cell (BBC4), The Gene Code (BBC4), Horizon: 'Playing God' (BBC2) as well as numerous programmes for BBC Radio 4. He is an editor at the science journal Nature, writes for The Guardian and has given numerous prestigious lectures, as well as appearing in the 'Uncaged Monkeys' tour.

Are some science teachers failing their pupils by not confronting creationist arguments when they come up during lessons on evolution? In this film presented by science journalist Dr Adam Rutherford made to mark the 150th anniversary of Darwin's Origin of Species in 2009 Prof Michael Reiss from the Institute of Education, University of London, said many science teachers felt uncomfortable talking about religion, but that refusing to engage with pupils who had creationist views would be counterproductive (a viewpoint that would later get him into trouble). Dr Jeremy Pritchard at the University of Birmingham, and London's Natural History Museum, explain how they are trying to redress the balance

The US presidential campaign and the Brexit referendum result both fuelled concerns about the rise of ‘post-truth politics’, with many painting 2016 as the dawn of a ‘post-factual era’. Almost the whole global economic, scientific and financial establishment lined up to warn of the consequences of Brexit, but 52% of the country ignored them. Accusations followed that people voted with their heart. It is assumed that if only the public ‘understood expert advice’ they would follow it; that there is no room for legitimate disagreement or debate. Have experts been over-reaching into areas where what is needed is not so much facts as political principles? Or if the facts are dismissed, will society sink into the mire of prejudice and superstition? Filmed at the Battle of Ideas the debate heats up as Professor Frank Furedi compellingly argues that ‘fact checking’ is a way of avoiding confronting ideas and values.
The speakers are: Professor Frank Furedi, sociologist and social commentator; author, What's Happened to the University?, Power of Reading: from Socrates to Twitter, On Tolerance and Authority: a sociological history; Josh Lowe, European politics reporter, Newsweek; Professor Neena Modi, professor of neonatal medicine, consultant in neonatal medicine, Chelsea and Westminster NHS Foundation Trust; president, Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health; Dr Adam Rutherford, geneticist, author, Creation and A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived: The Story In our Genes; presenter, Inside Science and The Cell. The chair is Claire Fox, director, Institute of Ideas; panellist, BBC Radio 4's Moral Maze and author, I Find That Offensive.

On the 28th February 1832, as he voyaged on the Beagle, Charles Darwin wrote in his diary of the experience of being in a Brazilian rainforest. He wrote, "The delight one experiences in such times bewilders the mind, if the eye attempts to follow the flight of a gaudy butter-fly, it is arrested by some strange tree or fruit; if watching an insect one forgets it in the stranger flower it is crawling over, if turning to admire the splendour of the scenery, the individual character of the foreground fixes the attention. The mind is a chaos of delight, out of which a world of future and more quiet pleasure will arise".
To us, it is one of Darwin's most beautiful passages and when interviewing over 150 people for The Incomplete Map of the Cosmic Genome, we asked most of our guests when they had experienced such a 'Chaos of Delight'. Here is Dr Adam Rutherford. His latest book 'A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived' is out now.
Many of these mini-episodes have previously only been available to Cosmic Genome subscribers, some have never ever been seen before, but now we are releasing them here on Cosmic Shambles. Enjoy.

With a referendum on Britain's membership of the European Union in the offing, leading British scientist, Sir Paul Nurse, told a packed audience at JW3 cultural centre in London on 17th December 2015 that Britain ought to remain a member, because it was best for science. Along with the general public, the audience was comprised of a large number of students fromPaddington Academy, City of London School, Jewish Community Secondary School and Imperial College London, who were given free tickets on behalf of The Alan Howard Foundation.
A Nobel Laureate for Physiology or Medicine, founding Director of The Francis Crick Institute and former President of the Royal Society, Sir Paul said the EU's money, size and freedom of movement policy supported the work of Britain's laboratories. In a wide-ranging discussion with broadcaster, writer and fellow geneticist, Dr. Adam Rutherford, the two scientists talked about government support for science and its status in Britain.
Having successfully pushed for increased government funding during the latest spending review, Sir Paul said "The UK does take science fairly seriously, certainly our political masters, they do listen to scientists."
However, Britain's laboratories received less funding than other G8 nations, and this needed to be improved, Sir Paul added. "This is a serious issue. We do very good science, but we're just above dysfunctionality," he warned.
With 1700 scientists, the new, one million square foot Francis Crick Institute at St Pancras will "possibly" be the largest bio-medical research facility in the world and will be run on "slightly anarchic" lines, with no departments, said Sir Paul. The new building opens in 2016.
"My approach is rather than to direct top down and tell people what to do, is to give freedom to be truly creative," Sir Paul explained.
During this third conversation in the second season of The Alan Howard Foundation/ JW3 Speaker Series, Sir Paul said science reporting by the media had improved. Referring to Brian Cox and Sir David Attenborough, he said, "When we have a good science presenter we should nurture them, and there are some brilliant ones. The problem is some of my colleagues snipe at them at a bit, [because] they're good looking, and they're good on camera."

Geneticist and self-proclaimed geek, Adam Rutherford talks about his new book, Creation: The Origin of Life/The Future of Life, and what hip-hop can teach us about synthetic biology. Our 40,000-year obsession with remixing organisms began with the earliest figurative art, and via Enfields, Jackalopes and the Bavarian Wölpertinger, became a reality with the advent of genetic engineering. This year, we celebrate not only the 60th anniversary of the structure of DNA, but the 40th anniversary of both the invention of gene manipulation by Paul Berg, and of hip-hop by DJ Kool Herc. These things are more closely tied than is immediately apparent. The evolution of music is notably similar to biological evolution, and the arrival of sampling closely mimics synthetic biology as wholesale pieces of...

Artificial Intelligence: Are we engineering our own obsolescence?
Filmed at Shoreditch Town Hall on 11th June 2015 Featuring: Nick Bostrom, Daniel Glaser, Murray Shanahan, Riva-Melissa Tez, Adam Rutherford (chair). Some of the smartest minds have sounded the alarm recently about artificial intelligence. Physicist Stephen Hawking has said that it could spell the end of the human race. Tech pioneer Elon Musk has warned that with AI ‘we are summoning the demon’. Given that the world is already full of the smart precursors of artificial intelligence - Siri, Google Translate, driverless cars etc, why the warning bells? Because many experts believe that it is only a matter of decades before we create a form of AI that is more than just a useful tool and becomes an autonomous, self-aware entity which could take off on its own, self-replicating and redesigning...

What is the truth about 'post-factual politics'?
The US presidential campaign and the Brexit referendum result both fuelled concerns about the rise of ‘post-truth politics’, with many painting 2016 as the dawn of a ‘post-factual era’. Almost the whole global economic, scientific and financial establishment lined up to warn of the consequences of Brexit, but 52% of the country ignored them. Accusations followed that people voted with their heart. It is assumed that if only the public ‘understood expert advice’ they would follow it; that there is no room for legitimate disagreement or debate. Have experts been over-reaching into areas where what is needed is not so much facts as political principles? Or if the facts are dismissed, will society sink into the mire of prejudice and superstition? Filmed at the Battle of Ideas the debate heats...

Episode 2 of 3 In this the second part of his investigation of the rise, fall and rise of the genetics of intelligence, Adam Rutherford explores an era post World War Two when behavioural genetics fell far from grace. The social not biological sciences reigned supreme in the the study of intelligence and differences between children were attributed to nurture not nature. Adoption studies were conducted to demonstrate the power of different home or school environments to transform lives. More recent studies, however, reveal that nurture is not what most of us imagine. Parenting accounts for just a small part of the variation between children's academic performances. The environment in the womb is as important, if not more so, than conditions at home or in the classroom. Not to mention th...

And now, as with the copyright issues that strangled creativity in hip hop, patents in genetics act as crippling hindrances to scientific progress.
Adam Rutherford is a geneticist, writer and broadcaster, whose work includes the award-winning series The Cell (BBC4), The Gene Code (BBC4), Horizon: 'Playing God' (BBC2) as well as numerous programmes for BBC Radio 4. He is an editor at the science journal Nature, writes for The Guardian and has given numerous prestigious lectures, as well as appearing in the 'Uncaged Monkeys' tour.

Geneticist and self-proclaimed geek, Adam Rutherford talks about his new book, Creation: The Origin of Life/The Future of Life, and what hip-hop can teach us about synthetic biology.
Our 40,000-year obsession with remixing organisms began with the earliest figurative art, and via Enfields, Jackalopes and the Bavarian Wölpertinger, became a reality with the advent of genetic engineering. This year, we celebrate not only the 60th anniversary of the structure of DNA, but the 40th anniversary of both the invention of gene manipulation by Paul Berg, and of hip-hop by DJ Kool Herc. These things are more closely tied than is immediately apparent. The evolution of music is notably similar to biological evolution, and the arrival of sampling closely mimics synthetic biology as wholesale pieces of other organisms are swapped to add functions and behaviours for our purposes. And now, as with the copyright issues that strangled creativity in hip hop, patents in genetics act as crippling hindrances to scientific progress.

Professor Jim Al-Khalili takes us back in time to tackle the greatest question in science: how did the universe begin? Uncovering the origins of the universe is regarded as humankind's greatest intellectual achievement. By recreating key experiments Jim unravels the cosmic mystery of science's creation story before witnessing a moment, one millionth of a second, after the universe sprang into existence.

Are some science teachers failing their pupils by not confronting creationist arguments when they come up during lessons on evolution? In this film presented by science journalist Dr Adam Rutherford made to mark the 150th anniversary of Darwin's Origin of Species in 2009 Prof Michael Reiss from the Institute of Education, University of London, said many science teachers felt uncomfortable talking about religion, but that refusing to engage with pupils who had creationist views would be counterproductive (a viewpoint that would later get him into trouble). Dr Jeremy Pritchard at the University of Birmingham, and London's Natural History Museum, explain how they are trying to redress the balance

Filmed at Shoreditch Town Hall on 11th June 2015
Featuring: Nick Bostrom, Daniel Glaser, Murray Shanahan, Riva-Melissa Tez, Adam Rutherford (chair).
Some of the smartest minds have sounded the alarm recently about artificial intelligence. Physicist Stephen Hawking has said that it could spell the end of the human race. Tech pioneer Elon Musk has warned that with AI ‘we are summoning the demon’. Given that the world is already full of the smart precursors of artificial intelligence - Siri, Google Translate, driverless cars etc, why the warning bells? Because many experts believe that it is only a matter of decades before we create a form of AI that is more than just a useful tool and becomes an autonomous, self-aware entity which could take off on its own, self-replicating and redesigning itself and ultimately wiping out the human race.
Not everyone is so pessimistic, however. Many experts believe that superintelligent machines, far from being a threat, will be our allies. There will be major breakthroughs in science and health, where specialists working alongside computers do better than either a human or a machine on their own. Others, most notably Google futurist Ray Kurzweil, are looking forward to a time when superintelligence will greatly enhance human capacities by means of computer implants that improve the brain and the body. Ultimately we could merge with our superhuman creations, defying ageing and death.

The US presidential campaign and the Brexit referendum result both fuelled concerns about the rise of ‘post-truth politics’, with many painting 2016 as the dawn of a ‘post-factual era’. Almost the whole global economic, scientific and financial establishment lined up to warn of the consequences of Brexit, but 52% of the country ignored them. Accusations followed that people voted with their heart. It is assumed that if only the public ‘understood expert advice’ they would follow it; that there is no room for legitimate disagreement or debate. Have experts been over-reaching into areas where what is needed is not so much facts as political principles? Or if the facts are dismissed, will society sink into the mire of prejudice and superstition? Filmed at the Battle of Ideas the debate heats up as Professor Frank Furedi compellingly argues that ‘fact checking’ is a way of avoiding confronting ideas and values.
The speakers are: Professor Frank Furedi, sociologist and social commentator; author, What's Happened to the University?, Power of Reading: from Socrates to Twitter, On Tolerance and Authority: a sociological history; Josh Lowe, European politics reporter, Newsweek; Professor Neena Modi, professor of neonatal medicine, consultant in neonatal medicine, Chelsea and Westminster NHS Foundation Trust; president, Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health; Dr Adam Rutherford, geneticist, author, Creation and A Brief History of Everyone Who Ever Lived: The Story In our Genes; presenter, Inside Science and The Cell.

Episode 2 of 3
In this the second part of his investigation of the rise, fall and rise of the genetics of intelligence, Adam Rutherford explores an era post World War Two when behavioural genetics fell far from grace. The social not biological sciences reigned supreme in the the study of intelligence and differences between children were attributed to nurture not nature.
Adoption studies were conducted to demonstrate the power of different home or school environments to transform lives.
More recent studies, however, reveal that nurture is not what most of us imagine. Parenting accounts for just a small part of the variation between children's academic performances. The environment in the womb is as important, if not more so, than conditions at home or in the classroom. Not to mention the role of chance.
