Is Russia using my childhood home as a military base?
Use BBC.com or the new BBC App to listen to BBC podcasts, Radio 4 and the World Service outside the UK. Is Russia using my childhood home as a military base? Vitaly's home village of Verkhnya Krynytsya in the Zaporizhzhia region was occupied by Russia shortly after the start of the full-scale invasion in February 2022. Now, in a Ukrainecast exclusive, he tells Victoria why it's likely his childhood home is being used as a base by the Russian military. Plus, BBC Verify has revealed a surge in Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian oil refineries in recent months.
Here's what I made of Snap's new augmented-reality Spectacles
These fifth-generation Spectacles can display visual information and applications directly on their see-through lenses, making objects appear as if they are in the real world. The interface is powered by the company's new operating system, Snap OS. There is no screen covering your field of view. Instead, images appear to float and exist in three dimensions in the world around you, hovering in the air or resting on tables and floors. Snap CTO Bobby Murphy described the intended result to MIT Technology Review as "computing overlaid on the world that enhances our experience of the people in the places that are around us, rather than isolating us or taking us out of that experience."
How Artificial Intelligence (AI) will impact Hollywood
AI is rapidly changing the way Hollywood functions. It revolutionizes how stories are told, how movies are made, how audiences engage with content, and more. AI has the potential to disrupt the entire movie industry, from the way producers develop scripts to the way audiences consume content. AI is already being used to help filmmakers create more engaging stories. AI-powered screenwriting tools are being used to help writers generate ideas and structure their stories.

The Promise of Immaculate AI
A basic promise of AI research is that what we observe as human intelligence is in fact a computation either directly or as an emergent effect. An attempt at classifying and distinguishing types of AI researchers was to call them all either scruffy (those that wrote code and implemented systems) or neat (those that base AI on some formalism like first order predicate calculus). Out of necessity, researchers tend to focus on a particular aspect of intelligence to simulate. When this is done, the effect is to restrict the class of computations that are being considered. The goal is build pieces of intelligence.
Research in Progress
Automated Problem Solving Group Jet Propulsion Laboratory 4800 Oak Grove Dr. Pasadena, California 91109 AI research at JPL started in 1972 when design and construction of an experimental "Mars Rover" began. Early in that effort, it was recognized that rover planning capabilities were inadequate. Research in planning was begun in 1975, and work on a succession of AI expert systems of steadily increasing power has continued to the present. Within the group, we have concentrated our efforts on expert systems, although work on vision and robotics has continued in a separate organization, with which we have maintained informal contacts. The thrust of our work has been to build expert systems that can be applied in a real-world environment, and to actually put our systems into such environments, taking a consultative responsibility for meeting user requirements.
