Karen Price was just 15 when she vanished in 1981 and, had it not been for a chance discovery by two builders, her body might never have been found. Because no-one was looking for her. Dubbed Little Miss Nobody, Karen had not been seen for eight years when her skeletal remains, wrapped in a carpet, were uncovered by two unsuspecting builders in Cardiff city centre on 7 December 1989. Her body, found in a shallow grave outside a basement flat on Fitzhamon Embankment, was so badly decomposed it was impossible to establish the cause of her death. Now, more than 40 years on and after the release of her killer, a new documentary has examined how police put together the jigsaw to solve the killing of a teenager known to no-one and how it involved groundbreaking methods to bring two men to justice.

U..S. employment statistics hit a new milestone last year, but not a positive one. In August 2021, almost 4.3 million workers quit their jobs, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. That's the highest number since the department began tracking voluntary resignations. Their reasons for leaving their jobs vary--the numbers track people who quit for a different position, as well as those who quit without having another job lined up. While the reasons for quitting vary, one thing is clear: Businesses are having a tough time getting employees to come back.

If you have ever played a video game, no matter what era you played it in, you have interacted with artificial intelligence. Regardless of whether you prefer race-car games like Gran Turismo, strategy games like God Of War, or shooting games like Call Of Duty, you will always find elements controlled by AI. Even things that you don't think would be AI controlled, are! AIs are often behind the characters you typically don't pay much attention to, such as enemy creeps, neutral merchants, or even animals and other background characters. When it comes to video games, artificial intelligence has grown leaps and bounds, allowing us to have some of the most realistic gameplay experiences yet.

A new report indicates that Australia must double its pace for artificial intelligence and robotics automation to achieve up to $2.2 trillion opportunity by 2030. While doing this, the country must urgently prepare to support over 3 million workers who may lose their jobs. Economics and strategy consulting firm AlphaBeta has released a report, which showed that automation can take away an average four hours of work every week from Aussie workers over the next 15 years if its rate is doubled. AlphaBeta director Andrew Charlton said the reality is that automation alters every job. He explained it is not so much about the jobs, but how the jobs will be done.

New data from research house AlphaBeta provides the answer. Search to find your job -- if you're game. A new analysis ranks how much of every occupation in Australia is at risk of automation, as artificial intelligence looks set to reshape our working lives. Economist Andrew Charlton, who led the AlphaBeta team that conducted the analysis, says that over the next 30 years, automation will affect every job in Australia -- but not always in the ways you might expect. "It's not so much about what jobs will we do, but how will we do our jobs," he explains.

What does the worldwide head of research at Google tell his kids about how to prepare for the future of work with artificial intelligence? "I tell them … wherever they will be working in 20 years probably doesn't exist now," Peter Norvig says. Be flexible, he says, "and have an ability to learn new things". Future of work experts (yes, it's a thing now) and AI scientists who spoke to Lateline variously described a future in which there were fewer full-time, traditional jobs requiring one skill set; fewer routine administrative tasks; fewer repetitive manual tasks; and more jobs working for and with "thinking" machines. From chief executives to cleaners, "everyone will do their job differently working with machines over the next 20 years," Andrew Charlton, economist and director of AlphaBeta, says.

The invasion of robots into factories and offices has long been seen as final blow for workforces ravaged by cheap offshore labour and the never ending quest to cut costs. However, that is a view being seriously challenged in hi-tech steel fabricating factory just south of Brisbane. Having put "artificially intelligent" welding and cutting equipment to work, Smart Steel Systems chief executive Chis Brugeaud said he was now able to bring back jobs "onshore" and reverse the trend of laying off people as technology improves. "What makes us different from the traditional fabricator is we have as many developers as we do welders, so we can process around 42,000 tonnes of steel a year," Mr Brugeaud told The Business program. Robotics has delivered two noticeable outcomes.

Sentiment analysis is already an important component of many brands' social media strategies, but it can often be limited to basic interpretations of whether a conversation is positive, negative or neutral. At the Cannes Lions international advertising festival in June, data visualization technology provider Buzz Radar conducted an experiment that took sentiment analysis further, diving deeper into different types of emotional nuances. Patrick Charlton, director and co-founder of Buzz Radar, spoke to eMarketer's Maria Minsker just before the festival about what the company hoped to learn from the project. Patrick Charlton: Burberry has used our Command Center platform to look at conversations on social media surrounding their campaigns. We pull in every single mention of Burberry from conversations about London Fashion Week, for example, and analyze the sentiment.
