Tech Life looks at icebergs. Climate change means there are more of them in our oceans, breaking away and slowly melting. Scientists need to study them - but how ? We speak to an expert about robotic gliders, which are opening up new research opportunities.

Also in this edition, can we trust artificial intelligence ? One of its problems is that it hallucinates, so we find out more about it.

How can tech help people who are blind or partially sighted watch TV ?

And our reporter gets his hands dirty examining rhino poo!
