Episode Synopsis

Music looks set to be at the centre of the next big technological battle.   Artificial Intelligence can create music in less than a second and increasingly, our ears can't tell the difference.   Whether it's backing music for a film or TV show, a commercial promoting a product or something appearing in the middle of a playlist to get you singing a long, there's huge interest in what could soon become a multi billion pound new industry.   If you're interested - have a look at an app called SongStarter which uses AI to create royalty free music and keep an eye on TikTok which is currently running job ads looking for engineers specialising in machine learning and artificial intelligence music creation.   More bad news for Twitter, it's had to report a security breach which affected 5 and a half million accounts.   And the NHS has confirmed an outage affecting its 111 phone service over the weekend was caused by a cyber attack.
