Steve Caplin takes Simon Rose through some of the highlights of the tech year, with trouble for Apple, WeWork, Buzzfeed & the FAA, while AI boosted the likes of ChatGPT and even commentated on Wimbledon. Some TVs were free while others used a vacuum to stick on the wall. Hong Kong scientists developed remote stroking, while German monks created the first powdered beer – with no alcohol. The best-rated restaurant in Montreal turned out not to exist while AI is revolutionising computer games, publishing and much more.

The Holy Family's flight in Egypt was followed by the 'massacre of the innocents' in and around Bethlehem. Today's Middle Eastern tragedy is again denying thousands of children and young people a future — why can we not learn to live in peace with each other? Every child born into our world has the same mix of amazing potential, whatever their gender, nationality, race or religion. It's not nature which condemns them to mediocrity and despair, but nurture. Therefore, let's all make a new year resolution to vastly improve the way we value and respect children and young people: not only for the sake of their current circumstances and prospects of survival, but also to give them all a real chance to achieve their true potential as adults.
