What if we could digitally recreate our parents, so that they are with us even after their passing? This is what Charlotte Jee, a leading tech journalist and current News Editor at the MIT Technology Review attempted, after the uncertainty of the pandemic overshadowed her life. Charlotte discusses her experience with digital twins, and the moral obligations that come attached. She also discusses her experiences navigating the world of tech over the years, which has been dominated by men but has slowly been seeing more active female voices. After all, who wouldn't want to work in tech right now, she asks. "It's where all the most exciting things are happening." We also address the rising threat of social media as a force that is reshaping our psychology and behavior, and our society as a whole.   Tune in to this episode of HYPERSCALE as we unpack an insider's perspective into the world of tech.  FOLLOW ► Instagram: https://bit.ly/briarig  LinkedIn: https://bit.ly/linkedin  TikTok: https://bit.ly/briartiktok  Website: https://briarprestidgeofficial.com 

An app-based company in California has created voice assistants which let you" talk" to people who have passed. Is it ethical?

Synthetic voice technologies are increasingly passing as human. But today's voice assistants are still a far cry from the hyper-intelligent thinking machines we've been musing about for decades. In this episode, we explore how machines learn to communicate—and what it means for the humans on the other end of the conversation. In this encore edition we revisit an episode from last year. We meet: Susan C. Bennett, voice of Siri Cade Metz, The New York Times Charlotte Jee, MIT Technology Review Credits: This episode was produced by Jennifer Strong, Emma Cillekens, Anthony Green, Karen Hao and Charlotte Jee.

When people speak of the ‘glass ceiling', they're usually talking about the invisible barriers women face when advancing in the workplace. This episode of the Next Stage explores the digital glass ceiling.This is a wide-ranging topic covering everything from gender-based harassment and hate speech on social media to gender inequality in access to technology (especially in developing nations). It also encompasses the lack of diversity in the Big Tech behind platforms that shape the way we communicate, socialise and even participate in society.But there is hope. As Portuguese actor and United Nations Ambassador Catarina Furtado said, “there is a new generation of feminists – both young and older women – with digital skills, and they use it as a megaphone. They have moved from the streets to the web to speak out”.Catarina Furtado, and cloud banking platform Mambu's co-founder and head of diversity, Sofia Nunes, were in conversation with MIT Tech Review journalist Charlotte Jee on Centre Stage at Web Summit 2021.Use promo code 'TNS' for 10% off your #CollisionConf ticket now.

Join us on HBR Debate as we give a listen to an NPR segment entitled "What Would A 'Feminist Internet' Look Like?" where Charlotte Jee of the MIT technology review speaks about some ideas to make the internet more feminist. What do you think that means?

Our ancestors viewed sleep as a highly sensual and transcendent experience. Today, about a third of adults have trouble falling asleep, staying asleep or feeling rested. We're becoming a nation of insomniacs. We live in what Rubin Naiman calls, a "wake-centric era,” where sleeping and dreaming are viewed as less important than being awake and on the go. It's hard to come down from the hyperaroused state we whip ourselves into by the end of a day. It's not surprising that we can't sleep. Insomnia can be miserable when all we want to do is sleep. But it's more a human condition than a medical condition to be solved by sleeping pills and tech gadgets. Plus, insomnia can have its upside. Our minds can be more open to insights and new possibilities in the dark quiet of night when our thoughts can wander to unknown places that the conscious mind can’t see. GUESTS: Marina Benjamin is a writer and Senior Editor at Aeon magazine. She’s written five books. Her latest memoir is Insomnia. She’s also the author of The Middlepause and Garden Among Fires: A Lockdown Anthology.

Google maps has a new feature - COVID19 maps. You can now filter onto your chosen area the current Covid-19 case rates. Launched in more than 200 countries the mapping feature could help people decide if they feel it is safe to travel to new areas – but as is often the case with new tech when it is launched it is not as informative as you may have hoped…yet. Charlotte Jee, MIT Technology review reporter, gives us a rundown of what’s good and what’s not so good about the new feature. The ethics of digital communication Can you remember the early days of the internet – how it was going to improve freedom of expression because of this amazing fast connectivity that we had never had before? Well obviously things haven’t quite panned out that way, says Prof (Baroness) Onora O’Neill form Cambridge Uni. In fact it’s done the opp as well as damaged our right to privacy. She speaks to Gareth about what can be done to reverse some of this damage. Hack a Sat Florian Blor reports from the first ever satellite hacking competition at DEF CON - the world's largest, longest continuously run underground hacking conference. The idea was to hack into a satellite, change it’s orientation in orbit and point it at the moon and take a photo. It wasn’t a real satellite in space but an earthbound stand in and part of hackasat – a cybersecurity completion aimed at ultimately protecting satellites from a cyberattack. The programme is presented by Gareth Mitchell with expert commentary from Bill Thompson. (Image: Getty images) Studio Manager: Sarah Hockley Producer: Ania Lichtarowicz

Created in partnership with CIO from IDG, episode 4 of the cloud automation podcast series explores whether companies should be preparing to go beyond DevOps and adopt NoOps methodology. Cloud automation and DevOps are already transforming IT for many enterprises and making their operations more efficient. Now, however, some enterprises are taking this concept one step further by completely automating the deployment, monitoring and management of applications, as well as the underlying infrastructure that supports them. In theory, you could run applications and services without any operations whatsoever. But the question remains: Is it practical? Visit (goo.gl/cqpUmz) to learn more.
