Tennis fans, cover your ears—Wimbledon just sacked its 147-year-old line judge tradition in favour of AI! That’s right, over 200 humans out, cold robotic accuracy in. Meanwhile, at Glastonbury, we’re wondering: is it only a matter of time before an AI act headlines the Pyramid Stage? And straight from the main stage, we're even hearing from Jarvis Cocker with his thoughts on the use of AI.

As always, we're bringing you the biggest and weirdest AI news:

• Microsoft’s new AI doctor that scores 8/10 while human medics only manage a 2/10.

• A man gets scammed by AI-generated Jennifer Aniston asking for Apple gift cards. No, really.

• AI-enhanced four-day workweeks

• Listener Libby asks: “Will AI be playing Glasto?” We dive in and name-drop the Velvet Sundown , a mysterious AI band making waves on Spotify.

Our guest is the fabulous Tara Thompson—AI educator, workshop wizard, and inclusivity advocate—who’s using tech to level the playing field for neurodivergent users and beyond. She shares why we all need to read (or AI-summarise) those Terms & Conditions, what red flags to watch for, and how to make AI actually inclusive. It all starts with US.

And of course, this week’s AI Challenge gets lyrical as George and James try to spot which poem is from ChatGPT, and which won second prize at the National Poetry Competition. It gets emotional. Like, “fluorescent tube thrown like a javelin” emotional.

James’s top tip: Use Epicure AI to turn fridge chaos into fine dining - https://epicure.kaikaku.ai/ - let us know how you get on!

Remember : Stay curious. Stay ridiculous. Stay unsubstituted by an AI line judge.

Ever wanted to have a heart-to-heart with a dodo? Or debate ethics with a whale? This week’s guest, zoologist Jack Ashby, tells us how he’s using generative AI to give museum specimens a voice.

This week, James and George dig into the juicy Microsoft–OpenAI “lovers’ tiff”, why everything on LinkedIn now sounds like it was written by ChatGPT, and whether you should be worried about AI stealing your kids' faces.

James and George are going head to head in an AI Challenge keeping in theme with animals - reckon you can spot the fake cat? It’s harder than you think…

This week, the boys are sunburnt and semi-sensible live from the Cannes Lions Festival — where they dive into the biggest AI news of the week, including how artificial intelligence is being used to protect endangered elephants, and controversially, how it’s been used unlawfully in court.

We’re also joined by the brilliant Kimberley Wyatt (yes, that Pussycat Doll) to hear how she’s embracing AI in her creative work, and what excites or unnerves her about the future.

Our AI question of the week explores whether machines could (or should) have a place in the legal system — from judging to lawyering AND we take on an AI-generated ad challenge Cannes-style.

We’re boldly going where no pod has gone before…

We're talking all things from asteroid dodging to Apple’s AI skepticism - George and James blast off into the cosmos with Professor Massimiliano Vasile, a leading expert in space systems engineering and AI. Find out how artificial intelligence is changing space travel — from planning smarter missions to possibly saving Earth from rogue asteroids.

Back on Earth, we unpack the latest AI headlines:

• Apple says AI models are faking it till they make it (and failing at hard stuff)

• Teachers get the go-ahead to let AI mark homework

• AI might just be your new work/life balance coach

James tackles a live listener question at IAB Engage
A new AI Challenge takes off with some… unearthly sounds
And we’re taking your weirdest, hardest, most bonkers AI questions – email us at aihaventaclue@gmail.com

Whether you're a space cadet or just AI-curious, this episode’s got you covered.
Strap in, hit play, and remember – stay curious.

From fashion fixes to therapy bots and the return of actual handwriting, this episode of AI Haven’t a Clue has it all.

George (on actual holiday, not AI-generated) and James tackle the latest AI headlines:
– Why AI might work better when we’re mean to it (sorry, robot feelings)
– Why Klarna’s customer service robot might need customer service itself
– Why students are putting down ChatGPT and picking up pens (yes, really)
– And why your next therapist might be... a chatbot. What could go wrong?

Plus, we chat to Ahmed Zaidi, founder of Hyran Technologies, about using AI to tackle fast fashion’s waste problem — because if AI can’t save the planet, at least it might help your wardrobe make less guilt-ridden choices.

There’s also another AI Challenge in the mix, and James tackles a listener question about how the UK can stay ahead in the AI race. (Jetpacks not included.)

AI is stealing voices. Yours could be next.

In this episode of AI Haven’t a Clue, hosts George Butler and James Chandler chat with three top voiceover artists caught in the crossfire of the AI revolution. Kasey Logan is cloning her voice. Peter Dickson (yes, the X Factor guy) is watching the chaos unfold. And Gayanne Potter? Her voice is turning up on Scottish Rail announcements — and she never gave permission.

We also dissect the latest AI headlines: Darth Vader goes synthetic, Apple courts devs with AI toys, and Microsoft’s CEO ditches podcasts for transcripts.

And finally, take our AI Voice Challenge: can you tell who’s real and who’s a robot?

This is one episode you really don’t want to miss — unless you’re a robot trying to learn how to steal someone’s identity. In which case... please don’t.

New research reveals that despite writing essays and predicting storms, theres something AI models still can't reliably do... We also dive into Google's bold move to embed chatbots directly into search, and how AI is revolutionising weather forecasts (finally, a reason to trust your weather app?).

We're joined by Dr. John Woodward – who’s here to blow our tiny human minds.

From self-writing algorithms to AI copilots in military jets, Dr. Woodward breaks down what’s coming next, what jobs might vanish (gulp), and what skills the next generation really needs to survive the AI apocalypse (spoiler: it's not interpretive dance… yet). We also chat about AI in medicine, the global arms race for smarter machines, and how on earth we’re supposed to spot a fake AI image these days.

PLUS: The hosts take on the AI Song Challenge – can they guess which tunes were made by a human, and which were cooked up in a synthetic sound lab? Can they pass the test? And can you do better?

Does your cat really love you? Or is it just hungry? Can we use AI to tell us exactly what our pet is thinking?

This week we are diving into the Chinese tech that claims it can translate what our animals are trying to tell us, we tackle the gender pay gap and look at the passionate plea from musicians and creatives who are basically yelling 'AI, stop nicking our stuff!'. We also answer your question, this week its all abot whether we are regulating AI, or just hoping for the best.

But that's not all, Tobias Allen from Fanvue joins us to explain why people are forming emotional bonds with AI Influencers, why we should be making digital versions of ourselves and what the future of celebrities will look like.

💬 Got a burning AI question? Email us at aihaventaclue@gmail.com slide into our DMs on LinkedIn, or socials @haventaiclue — we’ll pretend it was our idea.
