Richie AllenHOST
So lots of recommendations, 17 recommendations, including cameras in neonatal units or a camera over the bed of, uh, every baby, over the cot of every baby, or the incubator in every maternity ward.
Richie AllenHOST
So this is a big deal, this, right? Uh, on BBC News last night, on BBC Newsnight last night, Mark McDonald, who's currently Lucy Letby's lawyer, and he's handling her appeals, he spoke to Victoria Derbyshire.
Richie AllenHOST
You will hear Victoria Derbyshire now.

Anita BrooknerSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Something lies encoded and it's waiting to be dug up.
Tom SutcliffeHOST
Anita Bruckner talking on Newsnight after her Booker win.
Tom SutcliffeHOST
Her own attitude to the idea of biography was unequivocal.
Tom SutcliffeHOST
She would stamp on any attempt while she was alive, she once said, and she intended to make things difficult for anyone trying later.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Urgent questions.

Well, I could ask you, do you want to be a presenter on Newsnight? I had to cut down on the sugar.

I had to often remind my family that it was my birthday.

Justin WebbHOST
Interestingly as well, haven't they, they've had advice in front of the scenes, as it were.
Justin WebbHOST
They've had very public advice from Bernie Sanders, who among other outlets that he's been talking to, has been talking to the BBC, to our colleagues at Newsnight.
Justin WebbHOST
Let's, let's listen to what he had to say.
Bernie SandersSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
When the leaders of the industry tell you directly that they have, they are developing a technology which is dangerous, they don't know where it is going, and when scientists tell you there is a chance, a chance that it could have a cataclysmic impact on humanity, you gotta be a moron not to say, "Slow it down." Yeah, we wanna use AI to improve healthcare, to c- to cure cancer, et cetera, but we certainly don't wanna see it wipe out humanity.
Nigel FarageSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
I was not going to challenge Theresa
Matt ChorleyHOST
... do you want to be a presenter on Newsnight? I had to cut down on the sugar.
Michael CrickPANELIST
I had to often remind my family that it was my birthday.
Philip RycroftGUEST
The same people who told me not to read the newspapers could now say, "Why didn't you watch Strictly Come Dancing?" [laughs]
Emily WarnerHOST
It has recently hit the news that AI could kill us all by 2030, at least according to some anthropic researchers, who said on social media that there was a more than 10% chance AI would lead to human extinction in the next five years.
Emily WarnerHOST
This claim was given weight by the so-called godfather of AI, Geoffrey Hinton, who said on Newsnight that it was not an unreasonable estimate.
Emily WarnerHOST
But what does AI mean for healthcare? That is what the National Commission into the Regulation of AI in Healthcare set out to discover, and it's just published its recommendations.
Emily WarnerHOST
The Independent Commission was established by the MHRA in September last year and includes experts from across health regulation and AI, including international contributors.
speaker_1HOST
Humans must stay in control of AI and the pace of its development.
speaker_1HOST
The BBC interviews with Professor Geoffrey Hinton, the godfather of artificial intelligence, and Senator Bernie Sanders on Newsnight last Thursday must have sent shivers down the spines of most listeners.
speaker_1HOST
This was followed by Jacob Coxen, the AI researcher who quit Anthropic, reporting that staff were genuinely frightened for humanity's future.
speaker_1HOST
On Friday, there was a lead comment article in The Times by Gerard Baker entitled Be Afraid, Everything is Escalating Out of Control, with a strapline ending with little real leadership to stop it.
speaker_1HOST
Although Rishi Sunak accepts that his own company, Anthropic, did not give their latest model to the AI Security Institute to test, it is at present a voluntary process.
speaker_1HOST
At the same time, it is broadly accepted that the extent of wealth concentration as a result of AI, together with its major impact on the prospects for human employment, are aspects which cannot be ignored.
speaker_1HOST
Indeed, Bernie Sanders drew attention to these threats in his Newsnight interview.
speaker_1HOST
It is therefore entirely logical that a process of mass human participation in AI ownership, in terms of both wealth creation and oversight, should be included as a potential solution for maintaining continuing human control of its development.
Jeremy CorbynGUEST
That's me on a program I didn't appear in.
Jeremy CorbynGUEST
Newsnight is a special BBC programme every night.
Jeremy CorbynGUEST
It's quite an important news programme.
Jeremy CorbynGUEST
And they had a picture of me superimposed on the Kremlin in Moscow.
Josh AvesteHOST
She didn't meet a single survivor from the tragedy.
Josh AvesteHOST
And she then went on to, later in the day, do an interview on Newsnight, which was highly criticised by the public.
Josh AvesteHOST
When Theresa May finally did visit St Clement's Church to meet some of the victims, she was heckled by angry crowds shouting, "'Coward! Murderer! And shame on you!' Realising the depth of the state's failure, Theresa May actually went into the House of Commons on June the 21st, stating there has been a failure of the state, local and national, to help people when they needed it most.
Josh AvesteHOST
As Prime Minister, I apologise for that failure.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Maxwell and Epstein, who loaned Ferguson money to pay off debts, were guests of Andrew at events, including some at Windsor Castle, Balmoral, and Sandringham.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Prince Andrew, in his secret Newsnight interview, in his recent Newsnight interview, said guests at the parties and dinners in Epstein's New York mansions included academics, politicians, and people from the United Nations.
Bobby CapucciHOST
Well, we have the trifecta of scum there, right? We've learned that the academics are all scumbags, politicians, goes without saying, and how many different times have we seen the United Nations involved in sex trafficking schemes or child trafficking schemes? The United Nations is one of the biggest jokes in the history of the world and should be done away with.
Bobby CapucciHOST
But we know now that it was not just influential friends Maxwell cultivated.
