Available for over a year

One government cyber security official in Finland tells us how his government is preparing for cyber-attacks. We go to Virginia to speak to a housing realtor about the housing market. Have interest rates made home ownership unaffordable? And we ask the co-founder of France's first literary AI prize if it sets a dangerous precedent for authors.
