Tech obsessive Steve Caplin demonstrates to Simon Rose just how impressive text-to-speech has become and why AI should really be AGI. There's the UK's first self-driving bus, why cars with damaged batteries must be scrapped, Paris banning e-scooters, AI suggesting how your home can be redecorated, the noises plants make if they are stressed, how you can insulate your home with coconut & lemon and a crowdfunded punchbag – that fights back.

Original Broadcast: This is Money
Just when you thought the cost of living crisis was meant to be on its way out another round of bill hikes are hitting. From council tax to mobile bills, seemingly every organisation wants another piece of your bank account - and some of the rises are even higher than inflation. Is there anything you can do about it? Could a bit of switching, planning and another round of cutting back on energy usage, shave some money off? And is there light at the end of the tunnel? Georgie Frost, Helen Crane and Simon Lambert look at what's going up and how to fight it. Meanwhile, do you know how much tax you pay and are you in the firing line for Britain's worst tax traps? Ben Laidler of eToro delivers the latest update on the markets, after a much better week than the banking shakeout delivered last week. Plus — if you haven't done it yet, what can you do to sort your ISA?
