About this show

Can you create a new and exciting innovative business and still be ethical? Join Provocateurs regular Nicola Osborne (The University of Edinburgh) to explore if new ideas and technologies – including AI – can still be ethical and inclusive. Is the final frontier space or your garden? Rebecca Wilks (The University of Edinburgh) explores the line between privacy and knowledge for high-res satellites. We can now see elephants from space, but who will be the next target?
