In 1920, Czech writer Karel Čapek imagined a workforce of scientifically engineered humanoids ready to serve our every need in his play R.U.R.: Rossum's Universal Robots. It does not end well for us. We look inside the automated workspace of tomorrow and ask why machines should look and behave like us. Presenter Ken Hollings examines how we’ll work with AI and robots in the future.
What do humans still do better than machines? Dr. Beth Singler, Junior Research Fellow in Artificial Intelligence at University of Cambridge, looks at our behavior towards AI. Professor Alan Winfield of Bristol Robotics Lab talks about what can be learned from studying robots’ mistakes and principal security researcher at Kaspersky David Emm considers the security of robots at work.

1. The metaverse blend: Hyper-enhancing our hybrid future (Fast Forward S2)
Thursday Jun 01, 2023
Thursday Jun 01, 2023
Metaverses are immersive virtual worlds accessed through gaming consoles, VR headsets and computers. In them, you can do almost anything you’d do in the real world, and express your individuality through fashion. And you can start to learn how to interact with others in the metaverse, such as playing sports in teams. Interestingly, the metaverse itself is already changing what these activities will likely mean to us in future.
In this first episode of Fast Forward’s second season, writer and presenter Ghislaine Boddington meets Michaela Larosse of digital fashion house The Fabricant and Professor Andy Miah, Chair of Science Communication and Future Media at University of Salford, UK.
Fast Forward is produced for global cybersecurity brand Kaspersky’s cyberculture channel Tomorrow Unlocked.

Thursday Jun 15, 2023
Thursday Jun 15, 2023
Gaming companies have long wanted their games to appeal to women. Early successes like Pac-Man showed the size of the untapped market, while ironically, Ms. Pac-Man missed the mark. How should games companies work to better reach wider audiences?
Ghada Almoqbel, CEO of Saudi Arabia’s girls’ gaming community GCON, and Jennifer Donahue, Head of Publishing and Marketing at US online game-makers HiDef, join series writer and presenter Ghislaine Boddington to discuss how the games industry can better support and engage women and non-binary players.

Sly Spencer Lee, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of Emerge, explains a new technology letting people far from each other have deeper conversations by connecting through touch.

4. The extended self: Our future digital twins (Fast Forward S2)
Thursday Jul 06, 2023
Thursday Jul 06, 2023
In the future, will we each have a digital bio-twin beside us, ready to whisper in our ear when our biometric data shows we’re at risk?
Scientists say genes affect our lifespan by just 10 to 25 percent, making preventing illness key to extending our lives. Today, tech that quantifies our biophysical performance abounds, and more is on the way.
But how should we protect our precious and private health information, while taking advantage of these powerful, possibly life-extending tools? And what can be done about the missing data of women, people of color and others historically ignored by medical research?
Writer and presenter Ghislaine Boddington discusses the exciting and thorny topic of our extended selves in healthcare tech with Michael Geer, Co-founder of Humanity app, Marija Butkovic, world expert in women’s health innovation and Founder of Women of Wearables and David Emm, Principal Security Researcher at Kaspersky.
