Presentations:

**The Post Office Horizon Scandal: Service Failure** \- Amy Thornley

A look at the the Post Office Horizon Scandal that has been dominating the headlines as of late from a Service Design perspective. Looking at the key layers of the service and organisations that may have shaped Horizon's failure. From culture, through to processes and technology - and what we can learn as people working on services using technology.

**Why AI Development must prioritise Sustainability** \- Harry Stanyer

As AI is more widely adopted globally, what are we learning about its impact on the planet? And what can developers do to make their AI more sustainable?

**Rubbish Fun** \- Tom Chiverton

Have you been to the Macc council waste collection web site? It's rubbish; Could we recycle it in to something better? I can't bring back your green bins, but I can show how I (very unofficially) wheeled out something easier. Expect to hear about decoding strange APIs, writing and deploying NodeJS code and where to host hobby projects.
