Simon and Rachel speak with the journalist and author Madhumita Murgia. She is currently the Financial Times' first Artificial Intelligence Editor, where she covers developments in AI globally and broader issues including surveillance, data privacy and tech regulation. Before she joined the FT, she was head of technology at the Daily Telegraph, and associate editor at Wired magazine. Her first book, "Code Dependent: Living in the Shadow of AI" was recently shortlisted for the inaugural Women's Prize for Non-Fiction. Madhu holds two Master's degrees - one in journalism and one in clinical immunology. We spoke to her about making the move from science to journalism, becoming the FT's first AI editor, and about her new book.
