    Sebastian Mallaby on Demis Hassabis and the making of DeepMind
    2026/08/01
    Demis Hassabis, the founder of Google's DeepMind, is an AI pioneer we know little about. He has largely stayed away from the public eye. In The Infinity Machine, journalist and biographer Sebastian Mallaby draws on more than three years of unprecedented access to Hassabis and his team to tell the story of the scientist behind one of the world's most influential AI companies. In this conversation, Mallaby explains what drives Hassabis's lifelong pursuit of artificial general intelligence, why scientific curiosity, not commercial ambition, lies at the heart of his work and how DeepMind's breakthroughs, from AlphaFold to Gemini, have shaped the global AI race.

    Jennifer Shahade on how to think like a chess champion
    2026/06/13

    How do elite chess players think? How many moves ahead do they plan? Jennifer Shahade should know. A Woman Grandmaster, two-time US Women's Chess Champion, a professional poker player and author of several books, Jennifer draws on decades of experience in her latest book, "Thinking Sideways: How to Think like a Chess Player and Win at Life". In this podcast she talks about decision-making, creativity, preparation, parenting, coaching and dealing with uncertainty, anxiety and nerves. Instead of resorting to platitudes she offers concrete evidence, through various anecdotes, of how getting small things right can make a difference.

  • Johan Norberg on why civilisations rise, flourish and fall

    Johan Norberg on why civilisations rise, flourish and fall
    2026/06/07

    Johan Norberg's latest book, Peak Human: What We Can Learn from the Rise and Fall of Golden Ages, is a sweeping account of seven civilizations that flourished through openness, curiosity, trade and innovation. Drawing on examples from Athens, Rome, the Abbasid Caliphate and the Dutch Republic, Johan explores what creates a golden age and what causes its decline.


    He discusses the ideas of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, the role of free speech and political satire in ancient Athens, the scientific achievements of the Islamic world and the entrepreneurial spirit that transformed the Dutch into one of history's most successful societies.


    Despite wars, political turmoil and the pandemic, Johan argues that we may be living through the greatest age in human history. While he worries that societies continue to repeat old mistakes, he believes it is still far too early to give up on mankind.
