"Stop following the news until you've read Gemma Milne's persuasive analysis of the hype and bullshit that distort our understanding of emerging science. As she shows, the starting point to grasping the genuine opportunities of AI, life sciences and climate tech is a healthy dose of critical thinking."

These words from David Rowan, founding editor of WIRED UK, encourage us all to pay attention to the recommendations in Smoke and Mirrors, https://www.gemmamilne.co.uk/book - the forthcoming new book by science and technology journalist Gemma Milne, https://www.gemmamilne.co.uk/

This 90 minute London Futurists live webinar features Gemma Milne in discussion with:

*) Jack Stilgoe, Science & Technology Studies at UCL, and Fellow of Turing Institute, https://www.ucl.ac.uk/sts/people/dr-jack-stilgoe
*) Jenny Kleeman, Journalist, author, and filmmaker, https://www.jennykleeman.com/
