Every day we produce more data than the human race did from the dawn of
civilisation until the year 2000. Twitter, search engines, scientific
experiments, stock markets - these colossal databases can be mined for
valuable, sometimes mind-blowing, insights using the most sophisticated
algorithms ever created. This documentary explores how scientists are using
technology and innovation to search data. From the police department who are
using an algorithm to predict where crime will strike next, to a mobile
phone app that knows that you are unwell before you do, to the man whose
$5.5 billion hedge fund uses cosmologists, code breakers and particle
physicists to inform decisions. (From the UK) (Documentary) G CC
