Gatwick trials autonomous vehicles to shuttle staff across airfield
Gatwick’s 300 airside vehicles are stationary 90% of the time - as staff attend to aircraft and passengers - but a trial of electric-powered autonomous vehicles will soon see workers shuttled between popular locations on the airfield when it starts later this summer, the airport announced.
Can artificial intelligence beat a human hacker?
Please type the words you see in the image. At some point we have all completed a captcha to prove we are human when online. So, when a robot successfully completed the test, we were left asking, are our computers secure? Here, Jonathan Wilkins, marketing director at obsolete parts supplier, EU Automation, explains how machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) impacts cyber security.
