Off to #ChemUK to host The Big Debate, midday on Stage 2. I’ll be wringing all the best insights and expertise from a stellar panel of chemistry-related folks from across academia, publishing, funding and industry to ask what we need to do NOW to secure a future where the UK’s chem scene can thrive.
Our @timoreilly.bsky.social argues we’re not witnessing the end of #programming, but the beginning of something far bigger. He draws on past computing revolutions to explore how #AI is reshaping what it means to build software. Check it out on Hugo Bowne-Anderson's podcast: bit.ly/4iL8JSL
