ChatGPT, the AI chatbot developed by OpenAI, was the fastest growing app in history. But this achievement, as sudden and remarkable as it might seem, was simply the most recent chapter in a fascinating story that has been unfolding for almost seven decades. This lecture explores the full history of the relationship between AI and work, and how economists have tried to make sense of it. It’s a journey that begins with a remarkable gathering of minds in a nondescript mathematics department at Dartmouth University in 1956 and ends with the technological convulsions that we see around us today.

Join us for an enthralling walking tour that unwraps the legacy of Fleet Street, the erstwhile nerve centre of British journalism.

What happens after death? Can we communicate with the beyond? These eternal questions have plagued societies for centuries. Now, they are explored in an all-new exhibition that offers unprecedented access to 'forbidden knowledge'; to the dark realms of esotericism, occult sciences, and supernatural phenomena. More than 1,000 authentic artifacts, many used in real magical, religious, or esoteric rituals, are presented to the public for the first time. This is a journey for those who love mystery but seek more than surface-level thrills. A voyage through symbols, visions, and deceptions. An exhibition for those who want to see—and understand—the invisible. Get your tickets now for Dark Secrets: The Esoteric Exhibition in London!
