The Isaac Newton Institute: Creating eureka moments
One of the most exciting places in the mathematical world is the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences (INI), an international research centre and our neighbour here on the University of Cambridge's maths campus.
The INI attracts leading mathematical scientists from all over the world, and is open to all. We are proud to be collaborating with the INI to bring the cutting edge mathematics that is being done there to the general public. The following content is part of this collaboration.
AI, babies, and agency 
In this podcast we find out why true artificial intelligence will only become possible once machines have something that babies are born with: agency.
The agent perspective 
How do we learn and understand the world? What separates us from machines? Yoshua Bengio believes it all comes down to our agency.
Building meaning: dog or ostrich 
How do we build our models of the world? Yoshua Bengio explains how deep learning will help machines act to understand the world in a similar way.
Artificial intelligence takes on COVID-19 
Mathematicians are helping to develop an AI tool to help with diagnosing COVID-19 and making prognoses for infected patients.
Maths in a minute: Differential equations 
Change is the only constant in our lives — which is why differential equations are so useful.
Maths in a minute: Entropy 
Is it about energy? Is it about disorder? Or is it about information? It's all three!
Maths in a minute: The information paradox 
Explore a mystery that intrigued Stephen Hawking until the end of his life.
The dynamics of crowds 
Human beings are wilful and don't always act rationally. Yet, mathematical models of the behaviour of crowds are surprisingly accurate.
Maths in a minute: Higher dimensions 
In normal life higher dimensions smack of science fiction, but in mathematics they are nothing out of the ordinary.
What is machine learning? 
Find out how a little bit of maths can enable a machine to learn from experience.
