We are a group of doctors, most of whom are working frontline in the NHS in the fight against COVID-19. We have established this fundraise to provide much needed equipment and supplies to our frontline colleagues so that they have the necessary protection and tools to treat their patients.

Although the NHS is doing its best to order supplies, there are significant shortages at a local level. With a UK and International supply chain already in place, we have been sourcing and delivering PPE, masks, visors and sanitiser directly to staff since the last week of March. We have established a logistics network to supply medics in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool and we are delivering the equipment directly into the hands of the staff who need it. We need your support to keep the PPE coming as it is likely the situation will get worse in the UK before it gets better. Please give generously.

Even though the AI acronym is on the lips of every data scientist, IT manager and developer hungry for new technologies, the term has its origins around the middle of the last century. After the first reference to AI in the late 1950’s, a couple of years passed before people could grasp what it was really about, and got a taste of what it was.

In the late seventies, we became aware of the notion of artificial intelligence through the well-known Star Wars, Terminator, Robocop, Alien and Blade Runner movies. Above and beyond the blend of science fiction and action, these movies depict visionary scenarios involving AI and its various components. This era coincides with the decreasing cost of AI computing, and its increasing accessibility.
