Is My Phone Reading My Mind?
Let Dr Matt explain everything you and your kids need to know about Artificial Intelligence and why you don't need to be afraid!
When you think of AI, you might imagine a walking, talking robot . . . or you might think of a giant computer that wants to take over the world! But the reality is that AI is a brilliant human invention found in nearly every modern device from our computers to our cars.
AI can seem scary, so working out where we use AI and why is an important part of making the best of this exciting technology. So, what is an algorithm and can it help you choose pizza? Can ChatGPT do your homework? And when you watch TV, is it watching you back?
All these questions and more are answered in a fun, funny and engaging way by Dr Matt, who believes in making STEM accessible for everyone.

DR. MATT’S GUIDE TO LIFE IN SPACE
The search for Planet B. Why Earth is so special? And where are the aliens? Dr Matt Agnew takes us through this fun, information-packed, fascinating look at life in space. Sit back, relax, let your imagination run wild and enjoy this scientific journey.
Dr Matt explores the qualities that make planet Earth special before moving ahead to traverse what we're beginning to know about other special places for life in the solar system. And what about beyond, in other star systems? How do we even begin to look that far away?
Having investigated what we do know and what we're on the brink of knowing, Dr Matt's imagination runs wild as he addresses what we don't know. Where are the aliens? How common are they? Have we spotted any? And if not, why not?
“This is a great first book for diving into astronomy, and even better for an update on the Big One, “Is there life in the universe?" "' - Dr Karl Kruszelnicki, University of Sydney
