BBC World Service - Tech Life, X marks the spot

As Elon Musk rebrands Twitter, we explore what being X means for the platform

Tech Life looks at the new name for Twitter as Elon Musk brings more change and we look at the eye scanning orb that’s been developed to verify crypto users identification.

Zoe Kleinman and Shiona McCallum talk about X, the new name for Twitter, as Elon Musk continues making changes at the firm. What will the rebrand mean and where does the platform go next? We also try the eye scanning ‘orb’ that's been created to verify crypto payments. And we’re behind the scenes at CERN in Switzerland and talk to the creator of the AI League game that is accompanying the FIFA Women’s World Cup
