Always enjoy discussing the big picture with @FryRsquared. We talked about the frontiers of computability, the nature of the mind, and why I’m optimistic that AI will help us understand the universe’s deepest mysteries.
+ this wraps up another season of the award-winning @GoogleDeepMind Podcast - huge congrats to the team!

Good morning.
Today is the second and final day of in-person voting at the Senate House. If you work in Cambridge or can travel there, it is your chance to make history by helping to choose our next Chancellor in the most democratic process to date. It is quick and easy to do, involved (the University will provide a gown).
Below are some of the individuals who have kindly and thoughtfully offered their public support for my campaign, endorsing the importance of enhancing academic excellence, protecting and promoting academic freedom and free speech, and improving funding for our Collegiate University. My deep thanks to them.
Your voice matters and, whoever you vote for, it is important that you have your say over Cambridge’s future.
Thank you.

Obviously - since this is a Google Deepmind podcast - @nicklaslundblad is presenting one particular view. But I hope you'll see that I've tried to make this conversation as robust, fair and interesting a listen as possible.
Would love to hear what you think
