Hod Lipson鈥檚 Graphics Processing Unit: AI, robots eating robots and the unsung material that helps power our computers

Hod Lipson, Columbia University professor and award-winning robotics researcher, shares with Dr Anna the one item he can鈥檛 live without - his Graphics Processing Unit (GPU).

The conversation reveals how much GPUs underpin our electronic world, and how one somewhat unsung element - boron - is at the heart of making them work. Our Chief Executive Minerals Sinead Kaufman unpicks what boron is, how it鈥檚 extracted, and what needs to be done to keep us having the electronic devices so many of us rely on. We also look at how AI might have a role to play in the future of mining, why boron is 鈥渢he WD-40 of the world鈥� and what鈥檚 being done to help sustainability by 鈥渞obots eating robots鈥�.
