Lighthill Unbound: The Fluid Mind Behind Planes, Traffic, and AI

Explore James Lighthill, the Cambridge mathematician whose work in fluid dynamics and aeroacoustics transformed aviation, traffic flow, and early AI thinking. From the eighth-power law that tamed jet noise to modeling traffic as wave dynamics and shaping AI policy, this episode traces a life at the crossroads of theory and real-world impact.
