What happens when a tech leader with a background in democratizing design at companies like Figma turns their attention to architecture? This week, we're joined by Radhika Parashar Narain, Head of Marketing at Arcol, a software company reimagining how architects design and collaborate.Coming from the world of Software as a Service (SaaS), Radhika offers a fresh and insightful perspective on a profession she finds fascinatingly complex and creative, yet overdue for better tools. She shares her initial shock at the fragmented, inefficient, and often joyless workflows architects are forced to navigate. Radhika discusses the cultural and practical hurdles to tech adoption in an industry rooted in tradition, from the high "cost of change" after years spent learning legacy software to a scarcity mindset around collaboration. The conversation explores how Arcol, founded with a "Figma for BIM" ethos, aims to bring simplicity, accessibility, and collaboration to the earliest stages of design.Ultimately, Radhika's vision is not about disruption for its own sake, but about empowerment. She argues that by embracing intuitively designed, cloud-based tools, architects can reduce friction, foster collaboration, and rediscover the joy in their craft. Her hope is for architects to raise their standards for the software they use every day."My hope for the profession is for architects to have as high expectations as we have of the tools that we can foresee and we can kind of imagine can bring that joy back to the process." - Radhika Parashar NarainThis episode concludes with a call for the profession to see technology as a leverage point. Radhika encourages architects, especially students and smaller firms, to experiment early, build collaboration as a muscle, and use new tools to "punch above their weight." By democratizing access to powerful, well-designed software, the next generation can move beyond the limitations of legacy systems and focus on what they do best: creating the built world.Guest:Radhika Parashar Narain is the Head of Marketing at Arcol, a software company building a new generation of design and collaboration tools for architects. With a background in SaaS and design technology, including a tenure at Figma, she is passionate about empowering creators with better tools and making design more accessible to everyone.Is This Episode for You?This episode is for you if:✅ You are an architect frustrated with your current software and workflows. ✅ You are curious about how the mindset of Silicon Valley (SaaS) applies to the AEC industry. ✅ You want to understand the challenges and opportunities of tech adoption in architecture. ✅ You believe in the power of technology to democratize design and empower smaller firms. ✅ You are a student or educator looking for the next wave of tools that will shape the future of practice.

The Trade Desk takes center stage with its new OpenAds and PubDesk tools, aiming to clean up the programmatic supply chain while stirring industry debate. Meanwhile, the debut of Ad Context Protocol (AdCP) marks a potential turning point for agentic AI in digital media, proposing a standardized framework for AI-driven ad transactions. Finally, Netflix and Spotify join forces to expand video podcast distribution, signaling a shift in how audiences consume and advertisers monetize cross-platform content. 5 Key Highlights: The Trade Desk's OpenAds and PubDesk Launch: Introduced at the Prebid Summit, these tools aim to bring transparency and auditability to programmatic auctions. OpenAds introduces auction verification features, while PubDesk provides publishers with detailed auction and market insights. Industry Controversy Around OpenAds: Critics argue that The Trade Desk's approach to transaction IDs and auction control gives it too much influence over publishers, echoing antitrust concerns seen in other major adtech cases. Introduction of Ad Context Protocol (AdCP): Spearheaded by Brian O'Kelley and built on Anthropic's Model Context Protocol, AdCP standardizes communication between AI agents in advertising, with backing from PubMatic, Yahoo, and Scope3. Promise and Challenges of Agentic AI: Supporters see AdCP as the next OpenRTB, enabling seamless AI-to-AI media transactions, while skeptics question its ability to overcome adoption barriers and address critical issues like fraud prevention and payments. Netflix and Spotify's Video Podcast Partnership: Starting next year, Spotify's video podcasts will stream on Netflix, enhancing reach for creators and advertisers while positioning Netflix as a new competitor in the video podcast space alongside YouTube.

Tonight on Veritas... our special guest is Ryan Wardman. The last time we spoke, Ryan had just begun his modern odyssey. Since then, he has kept moving, kept searching, and kept asking the kinds of questions most people avoid. In the past year alone, Ryan has spent months in Odessa on the Black Sea, traveled through Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan, explored the caves of Georgia, returned to the pyramids of Egypt, stood among the stones of Samarkand, and climbed the highlands of Scotland. He promoted a film in Paris and now calls Moldova his base of operations. Along the way, he has focused on some of the biggest mysteries of our time. The Moon. The Ark of the Covenant. The rise of digital identity and human 2.0. The mass migration changing Europe. He has seen events firsthand that do not match the official story, and he has experienced moments that defy easy explanation, including a glowing orb that appeared to him one night in Stockholm. Tonight, we continue the conversation. What has Ryan seen. What has he learned. And what does his journey reveal about the world we now face together. Lan is the Welsh word for "pure." This is the featured song for this VERITAS episode. It is based on the Welsh folk song Lisa Lan, performed in the original language. The vocals speak of love, grief, and memory. The arrangement combines ancient melody with modern cinematic elements to reflect the emotional depth and mystery of Ryan Wardman's journey.

In this episode, host Etienne Nichols sits down with Jose Bohorquez and Mohamad Foustok from CyberMed to dissect the complex world of Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) and cybersecurity. They emphasize that SaMD is first and foremost a medical device and should be treated as such from the very beginning of the development process. The conversation highlights the most common mistakes companies make, like treating security as an afterthought and jumping straight into coding without a solid architectural plan.Mohamad Foustok introduces the concept of "zero trust" and the critical importance of designing for security across the entire product lifecycle, from initial concept to post-market surveillance. The discussion clarifies that cybersecurity is not limited to network-connected devices but applies to any medical device with a software function, regardless of its connectivity. They also touch on the historical context of FDA guidance, noting a significant shift in recent years that has raised the regulatory bar and put a greater emphasis on robust cybersecurity documentation.The guests provide actionable advice for MedTech professionals, stressing the value of a balanced approach that integrates security and functionality from day one. They explain that a well-thought-out process, though seemingly slower at the outset, ultimately saves time and resources by preventing costly and time-consuming redesigns later on. This episode serves as a vital guide for anyone looking to build a secure and compliant medical device in today's evolving regulatory landscape.Key Timestamps[01:50] Common pitfalls in developing SaMD, including overlooking regulatory guidance like IEC 62304.[03:20] The critical mistake of treating cybersecurity as an afterthought in product development.[05:00] Who cybersecurity applies to beyond software, including patients, manufacturers, and supply chains.[06:30] The FDA's stance on cybersecurity for any device with a software function, even if not network-connected.[08:00] A discussion on "reasonable assurance of cybersecurity" and what it means for manufacturers.[10:00] The "zero trust" principle and why you should never assume a network is secure.[14:00] How hospitals and other stakeholders are demanding more rigorous cybersecurity standards.[15:40] The ideal process for a "security-first" development lifecycle.[21:00] Why rushing development without a proper architecture can lead to significant delays and cost overruns.[23:00] A brief history of FDA's cybersecurity guidance and the major shift in 2023.Quotes"Software as a medical device ultimately is a medical device, and so you want to be developing it from the get-go with that mindset." — Jose Bohorquez"Security can't be an afterthought. You have to consider security at the inception of your approach to a product." — Mohamed FustokTakeawaysA "Security-First" Mindset is Essential: Integrate cybersecurity from the initial architectural phase of your project. This proactive approach saves significant time and money by avoiding costly redesigns and delays later in the development process or after an FDA submission.Cybersecurity is for All Software-Driven Devices: Don't assume that only cloud-connected devices need cybersecurity documentation. The FDA requires documentation for any device with a software function, including embedded systems and programmable logic, even if it's not connected to a network.Regulatory Compliance is a Process, Not a...

The source provides an extensive analysis of the potential risks and realities surrounding the digital transition in Australia, drawing comparisons to developments in the United Kingdom. It questions whether the move towards technologies like central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) and digital IDs will lead to greater governmental control or enhanced citizen freedom. The text outlines the present situation, confirming that cash is still legal while acknowledging the existence of optional systems like myGovID and ongoing CBDC pilot programs in both nations. Crucially, the analysis debunks several common myths, such as the mandatory enforcement of digital currency in the UK, and details a possible timeline extending to 2035 where digital currencies gradually become prevalent alongside a declining, but still legal, use of cash. Finally, it presents a stark contrast between a potential dystopian future of restricted, programmable money and an optimistic future where multiple forms of currency coexist with robust privacy protections.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Technology & Security podcast, host Dr. Miah Hammond-Errey is joined by lawyer and digital rights activist, Lizzie O'Shea. This episode explores Australia's technology debates from a security and legal lens—addressing copyright, creativity, AI, and the legal structures, including class action, that shape society and security. We discuss how so often in the AI discussion we are asked to make trade-offs about immense future potential with real present harms in the now. This episode breaks down why proposals to let large language models freely train on the copyrighted works of Australians have rattled artists, news media, and civil society. Lizzie explains the Productivity Commission's push for a data mining exemption, unpacks strong community reaction, the distinction between fair use and fair dealing and highlights what's at stake for creative industry sustainability and fair compensation in the digital age. We also explore recent legal action against Google and Apple–in Australia–and  the breadth of big tech legal and enforcement action globally, and what this means. The episode also covers the changing nature of US and Chinese AI strategies and approaches to the Indo Pacific, as well as an increase in big tech spending in Australian policy and research landscape. We explore the vulnerability of allowing mass data collection, noting that while data minimisation, and prioritising strong cybersecurity are understood priorities we question whether they are they really supported by legislative regimes. We discuss the significance of incentivising feedback in AI systems to integrate them into businesses in productive ways and crafting successful narratives for cautious adoption of AI. Finally, we look at why litigation has become central to holding digital giants accountable, and how Australians' blend of healthy scepticism and tech enthusiasm might finally force smarter AI regulation. The conversation highlights how quick fixes and premature adoption, risk deeper, lasting social harms and national security threats. Resources mentioned in the recording: ·       Future Histories, What Ada Lovelace, Tom Paine, and the Paris Commune Can Teach Us about Digital Technology, by Lizzie O'Shea, Shortlisted for the Victorian Premier's Literary Awards 2020 Award. https://lizzieoshea.com/future-histories/·       Burning Platforms podcast, https://percapita.org.au/podcasts/·       Empire of AI by Karen Hao ·       Digital Rights Watch https://digitalrightswatch.org.au This podcast was recorded on the lands of the Gadigal people, and we pay our respects to their Elders past, present and emerging.

Each one I find reminds me of a small, battered transistor radio from my youth. It belonged to my father, and before that, probably my grandfather. The leather case was cracked, the antenna wobbled, and the dial drifted if you breathed on it wrong. But when I was sixteen, sprawled across my bedroom floor in that small town near Florence with homework scattered around me, this little machine was my portal to everything that mattered.Late at night, I'd start by chasing the latest hits and local shows on FM, but then I'd venture into the real adventure—tuning through the static on AM and shortwave frequencies. Voices would emerge from the electromagnetic soup—music from London, news from distant capitals, conversations in languages I couldn't understand but somehow felt. That radio gave me something I didn't even know I was missing: the profound sense of belonging to a world much bigger than my neighborhood, bigger than my small corner of Tuscany.What I didn't realize then—what I'm only now beginning to understand—is that I was holding the first smartphone in human history.Not literally, of course. But functionally? Sociologically? That transistor radio was the prototype for everything that followed: the first truly personal media device that rewired how young people related to the world, to each other, and to the adults trying to control both.But to understand why the transistor radio was so revolutionary, we need to trace radio's remarkable journey through the landscape of human communication—a journey that reveals patterns we're still living through today.When Radio Was the Family HearthBefore my little portable companion, radio was something entirely different. In the 1930s, radio was furniture—massive, wooden, commanding the living room like a shrine to shared experience. Families spent more than four hours a day listening together, with radio ownership reaching nearly 90 percent by 1940. From American theaters that wouldn't open until after "Amos 'n Andy" to British families gathered around their wireless sets, from RAI broadcasts bringing opera into Tuscan homes—entire communities synchronized their lives around these electromagnetic rituals.Radio didn't emerge in a media vacuum, though. It had to find its place alongside the dominant information medium of the era: newspapers. The relationship began as an unlikely alliance. In the early 1920s, newspapers weren't threatened by radio—they were actually radio's primary boosters, creating tie-ins with broadcasts and even owning stations. Detroit's WWJ was owned by The Detroit News, initially seen as "simply another press-supported community service."But then came the "Press-Radio War" of 1933-1935, one of the first great media conflicts of the modern age. Newspapers objected when radio began interrupting programs with breaking news, arguing that instant news delivery would diminish paper sales. The 1933 Biltmore Agreement tried to restrict radio to just two five-minute newscasts daily—an early attempt at what we might now recognize as media platform regulation.Sound familiar? The same tensions we see today between traditional media and digital platforms, between established gatekeepers and disruptive technologies, were playing out nearly a century ago. Rather than one medium destroying the other, they found ways to coexist and evolve—a pattern that would repeat again and again.By the mid-1950s, when the transistor was perfected, radio was ready for its next transformation.The Real Revolution Was Social, Not TechnicalThis is where my story begins, but it's also where radio's story reaches its most profound transformation. The transistor radio didn't just make radio portable—it fundamentally altered the social dynamics of media consumption and youth culture itself.Remember, radio had spent its first three decades as a communal experience. Parents controlled what the family heard and when. But transistor radios shattered this control structure completely, arriving at precisely the right cultural moment. The post-WWII baby boom had created an unprecedented youth population with disposable income, and rock and roll was exploding into mainstream culture—music that adults often disapproved of, music that spoke directly to teenage rebellion and independence.For the first time in human history, young people had private, personal access to media. They could take their music to bedrooms, to beaches, anywhere adults weren't monitoring. They could tune into stations playing Chuck Berry, Elvis, and Little Richard without parental oversight—and in many parts of Europe, they could discover the rebellious thrill of pirate radio stations broadcasting rock and roll from ships anchored just outside territorial waters, defying government regulations and cultural gatekeepers alike. The transistor radio became the soundtrack of teenage autonomy, the device that let youth culture define itself on its own terms.The timing created a perfect storm: pocket-sized technology collided with a new musical rebellion, creating the first "personal media bubble" in human history—and the first generation to grow up with truly private access to the cultural forces shaping their identity.The parallels to today's smartphone revolution are impossible to ignore. Both devices delivered the same fundamental promise: the ability to carry your entire media universe with you, to access information and entertainment on your terms, to connect with communities beyond your immediate physical environment.But there's something we've lost in translation from analog to digital. My generation with transistor radios had to work for connection. We had to hunt through static, tune carefully, wait patiently for distant signals to emerge from electromagnetic chaos. We learned to listen—really listen—because finding something worthwhile required skill, patience, and analog intuition.This wasn't inconvenience; it was meaning-making. The harder you worked to find something, the more it mattered when you found it. The more skilled you became at navigating radio's complex landscape, the richer your discoveries became.What the Transistor Radio Taught Us About TomorrowRadio's evolution illustrates a crucial principle that applies directly to our current digital transformation: technologies don't replace each other—they find new ways to matter. Printing presses didn't become obsolete when radio arrived. Radio adapted when television emerged. Today, radio lives on in podcasts, streaming services, internet radio—the format transformed, but the essential human need it serves persists.When I was sixteen, lying on that bedroom floor with my father's radio pressed to my ear, I was doing exactly what teenagers do today with their smartphones: using technology to construct identity, to explore possibilities, to imagine myself into larger narratives.The medium has changed; the human impulse remains constant. The transistor radio taught me that technology's real power isn't in its specifications or capabilities—it's in how it reshapes the fundamental social relationships that define our lives.Every device that promises connection is really promising transformation: not just of how we communicate, but of who we become through that communication. The transistor radio was revolutionary not because it was smaller or more efficient than tube radios, but because it created new forms of human agency and autonomy.Perhaps that's the most important lesson for our current moment of digital transformation. As we worry about AI replacing human creativity, social media destroying real connection, or smartphones making us antisocial, radio's history suggests a different possibility: technologies tend to find their proper place in the ecosystem of human needs, augmenting rather than replacing what came before.As Marshall McLuhan understood, "the medium is the message"—to truly understand what's happening to us in this digital age, we need to understand the media themselves, not just the content they carry. And that's exactly the message I'll keep exploring in future newsletters—going deeper into how we can understand the media to understand the messages, and what that means for our hybrid analog-digital future.The frequency is still there, waiting. You just have to know how to tune in.__________ End of transmission.

Hoe versterken we het verdienvermogen van ons land de komende decennia en wat kunnen we leren van wat nu al succesvol is? Jaap Jansen en PG Kroeger gingen met die vraag naar Brainport Eindhoven, waar wereldleiders in hightech, kennis en innovatie samen optrekken, de wereld tegemoet. En met gefronste blik naar Den Haag. "Keuzes maken en die volhouden in plaats van oneliners en onbetrouwbaar beleid”, adviseren de mensen daar aan de politici die na 29 oktober een kabinet gaan formeren. *** Deze aflevering is mede mogelijk gemaakt door Platform Talent voor Technologie en Brainport Eindhoven. En natuurlijk met donaties van luisteraars die we hiervoor hartelijk danken. Word ook vriend van de show! Heb je belangstelling om in onze podcast te adverteren of ons te sponsoren? Zend een mailtje naar adverteren@dagennacht.nl en wij zoeken contact. *** Amal Tourabi, 'head of government affairs' van ASML, schetst hoe de vraag naar halfgeleiders permanent verdubbelt. Als meest geavanceerde machinebouwer voor die chips moet en wil het bedrijf daarin voorop blijven lopen. Dat doet een bedrijf als ASML samen met zo'n 5000 hightech toeleveranciers, waarvan er 1600 in de Brainport-regio actief zijn. En het lukt alleen als ze met de kennisorganisaties, opleidingen en overheden de handen ineenslaan. "Dat is hier een ecosysteem zoals je nergens anders ziet." Samen een lange termijn focus hebben, realiseren en volhouden, is het devies. Wispelturigheid? Nee, bedankt! "We zijn nu in één jaar aan de derde bewindspersoon voor Buitenlandse Handel toe. Dat helpt niet erg, nee." CEO Joop Essing van VHE Industrial Automation is zo'n toeleverancier. Hij heeft veel concrete voorbeelden van de gevolgen van zulke instabiliteit. Bij VHE werken ze met MBO-talenten uit heel de wereld; vluchtelingen ook. Tourabi en Essing pleiten vurig voor een beleid met een lange tijdshorizon waarmee duidelijkheid en stabiliteit verzekerd zijn. Zo kunnen opleidingen en bedrijven structureel vervlochten verder groeien. En maak eindelijk eens werk van de beloofde maar nooit waargemaakte 3 procent van het bbp aan investeringen (publiek en privaat) voor R&D en innovatie. Die bloei van dit ecosysteem kwam niet vanzelf. De Eindhovense wethouder Stijn Steenbakkers (CDA) en burgemeester Greet Buter van Deurne (PvdA) vertellen hoe de regio Eindhoven in de jaren ‘90 door een diepe crisis ging. "Er waren dagen dat in duizenden brievenbussen ontslagbrieven binnenkwamen." Ze sloegen de handen ineen en met steun vanuit Europa groeide een samenwerkingsmodel waarin niemand domineert en ieder bereid is zijn rol te spelen. Een kleine, groene gemeente als Deurne durft het aan woningen te bouwen – van 14.000 nu naar 22.500 straks - maar wel op zo'n manier dat de eigen identiteit en leefbaarheid overeind blijven. Het effect is dat Brainport een magneet wordt. De regio’s om Brainport Eindhoven heen willen ook meedoen, zodat ruimte ontstaat voor meer capaciteit en diversiteit van wonen, leven en werken. Het door het kabinet Rutte IV gestarte project-Beethoven (een groot investeringsprogramma waarin Rijk en regio samen zo’n 2,5 miljard euro investeren) helpt hierbij. Als bestuurders willen zij van 'Den Haag' vooral geen 'beleid vol details'. Na de bestuurlijke stagnatie onder het kabinet-Schoof verlangen ze helder beleid met een lange horizon, ruimte voor maatwerk en de eigen cultuur van samenwerking. De verdubbeling bij ASML en zijn duizenden hightech partners is bovenal voor de opleidingen een uitdaging. Leiden zij voldoende jonge talenten op? Annemarie Moons van het grote Summa College (mbo) en Joep Houterman van de omvangrijke Fontys Hogeschool weten wat hen te doen staat. Summa maakt er veel werk van, elke student op de juiste plek krijgen en de uitval in het mbo stevig te reduceren. Fontys merkte dat in allerlei sectoren hbo-talenten hun plek wel vonden - van de zorg tot de techniek - maar velen van hen al snel weer vertrokken. Beide trends verspillen natuurlijk kostbaar talent en kansen. Mbo en hbo moeten niet afhankelijk blijven van potjes en projectjes waar bedrijven een paar jaar aan mee doen. Alleen blijvend, samen de samenwerking uitdiepen - ook hier als ecosysteem dus - kan helpen dat de talenten allemaal hun plek vinden en blijven doorgroeien. Platform Talent voor Technologie speelt hier met ‘Katapult’ een onmisbare rol in. Heel eigen belemmeringen remmen die bloei hardnekkig. Ouderwetse taaleisen voor mbo-diploma’s onthouden jong talent kansen en de bedrijven goed gekwalificeerd personeel. “Havo-niveau is hier niet nodig”, zegt Moons. En verouderd denken over R&D waarin concrete, praktijkgestuurde innovatie vanuit hogescholen een muurbloempje blijft. Er is nog veel werk aan de winkel. Zo beseft iedereen dat in een hightech regio iedereen voortdurend blijft leren en vorsen. Dat een hogeschool voor die maatschappelijke opdracht maar moet zien hoe, of en wanneer dat kan en boekhoudkundig eigenlijk zou mogen, maakt Joep Houterman witheet. "Geef ons bij wet de opdracht dat te doen, zodat we het écht kunnen waarmaken.” Het gaat heel goed met Brainport Eindhoven. Maar het kan nog beter en daar moet de politiek nu een aantal grote stappen zetten, klinkt het in deze aflevering van Betrouwbare Bronnen. *** Verder luisteren 371 - Banen op zoek naar mensen.

Might the supposedly revolutionary future of AI healthcare actually be a return to the gig economics of Uber and Airbnb? That's the intriguing proposition put forward by former Kaiser Permanente Chief and Stanford Medical School professor Robert Pearl, a prescient observer of the future of his industry. According to Pearl, we may be returning to the digital future: freelance doctors, he predicts, will train people to use existing AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, etc.) for managing chronic conditions - essentially "Uberizing" medical AI guidance. The real question, of course, is whether this will cheer up both doctors and patients. Pearl isn't sure about either. But one thing he is certain about is that MAGA government isn't the answer to fixing America's healthcare future. Having been cautiously optimistic about RFK Jr six months ago, he now gives the US Secretary of Health and Human Services an “F” for his first six months in office. Maybe we should Uberize RFK Jr. It certainly couldn't make things worse. 1. Two Competing AI Healthcare ModelsPearl identifies two paths: expensive, FDA-regulated products from tech companies versus affordable, clinician-led training programs that teach patients to use existing AI tools like ChatGPT for chronic disease management—with the second potentially avoiding regulation entirely.2. AI Could Prevent 30-50% of Medical DeathsBy better managing chronic diseases like hypertension and diabetes (which account for 70% of doctor visits and costs), AI could save $1.5 trillion and prevent massive numbers of deaths from heart disease, cancer, kidney failure, and strokes.3. The "Uberization" of Medical CareWith 40% of doctors already doing gig work, Pearl envisions freelance physicians training patients to use AI tools for continuous health monitoring—replacing the current system of infrequent office visits with real-time, at-home care management.4. Insurance Companies Will Welcome AI, Hospitals Will ResistInsurers will benefit from lower costs and reduced need for prior authorizations, while hospitals and drug companies will see fewer patients and medication sales—making them the primary opponents of AI healthcare adoption.5. Medical Education Faces Major DisruptionElite institutions like Stanford will focus on complex procedures (heart transplants, major cancers), while routine medical knowledge becomes commodified. Mid-level healthcare jobs will disappear, similar to what's happening in computer programming.Bonus Political Takeaway: Pearl gives RFK Jr. an "F" for his first six months, saying he's capitulated to the agricultural industry instead of tackling the root causes of chronic disease through nutrition policy.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

The consensus among AI savants is that 2027 will be a key year -- a year in which AI achieves some degree of "sentience": It won't want to be shut down, for example. The HAL scenario, in the film "2001: A Space Odyssey" is coming. But Jeffrey Cole, director of the USC Annenberg Center for the Digital Future, is mostly "positive," about the fast march of AI. He speaks with Host Llewellyn King and Co-host Adam Clayton Powell III.

Send us a textThe digital revolution sweeping across our world seems ethereal, yet rests firmly on physical foundations that remain invisible to most of us. What powers artificial intelligence? Beyond the algorithms and code lies a material reality that shapes our present and future.Six critical raw materials form the backbone of our technological world. Sand—yes, that ubiquitous substance beneath our feet—provides silicon for our computer chips and glass for our screens, with high-quality sand becoming so scarce that Dubai imports it from Belgium despite being surrounded by desert. Salt drives the chemical industry producing everything from fertilizers to pharmaceuticals. Iron transformed into steel builds our physical infrastructure. Copper connects our digital devices. Oil continues to outproduce all renewable energy sources combined. And lithium, the "white gold" of the clean energy transition, powers batteries while its extraction damages fragile ecosystems.This material reality highlights a profound paradox: our rush toward a green, AI-powered future demands an explosion of mining activity that threatens the very environments we aim to protect. As wealthy nations promote digital transformation and clean energy, resource-rich developing nations bear the extraction burden. We stand at a critical juncture where our technological ambitions must be balanced with environmental sustainability and global equity. The future may indeed be green and digital, but it will still be mined—the question is who will pay the price and who will reap the rewards.Subscribe to our channel and join this ongoing conversation about the complex relationship between our physical and digital worlds.

In a world increasingly marked by polarisation and fractured discourse, how can we truly hear each other?Join us in the Great Room of the RSA for a vital conversation between Emily Kasriel, journalist, broadcaster, and author of the new book Deep Listening, and Professor Paul Dolan, behavioural scientist and author of the new book Beliefism. Together, they'll explore the transformative power of deep listening and belief systems in shaping how we communicate, understand, and disagree.Emily's pioneering work on ‘deep listening' reveals how active, empathetic engagement can break down barriers and build trust. Paul's latest research into belief structures challenges us to understand how and why we cling to our views – and what it takes to listen to different perspectives.This event brings two powerful thinkers into dialogue, sharing fresh perspectives and practical strategies to foster respectful, productive conversations in divided times. As we navigate increasingly complex social and political terrain, this is a timely and urgent opportunity to reflect on what it means to connect meaningfully across difference.Speakers:Emily Kasriel, journalist, broadcaster, and authorProfessor Paul Dolan, behavioural scientist and authorChair:Sonia Livingstone OBE FBA, Professor of Social Psychology, Department of Media and Communications at LSE, author and Director of Digital Futures for ChildrenDonate to the RSA: https://thersa.co/3ZyPOEaBecome an RSA Events sponsor: https://utm.guru/ueembFollow RSA on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thersaorg/Like RSA on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theRSAorg/Listen to RSA Events podcasts: https://bit.ly/35EyQYUJoin our Fellowship: https://www.thersa.org/fellowship/join

The coming together of the human mind and the digital mind is known as The Singularity, when we become one with computers. Many of the tech oligarchs desire to live forever and believe that uploading their brains and minds to the digital realm as a way of achieving it. It's all part of what's called Transhumanism: augmenting humanity through technology and, eventually, overcoming death itself. BUT what happens to your soul? If you upload your mind, which is also your essence and your being, does your soul follow? And if it does, then how can your soul go to God? It's a dilemma which could leave those digital/human beings stuck in...limbo?The only university that makes you chuckle AND learn at the same time.

Hybrid cloud for us means that regardless of where the data sits whether the compute is on-premise, off-premise, or across multiple clouds. We believe the client should have the control and flexibility to choose where to run and place their data. If you look at the facts, a very high percentage of client data is still on-premise. It hasn't moved to the cloud for obvious reasons. So, how can you scale AI if you don't have proper access to that data? AI is all about the data. That's why we believe in a strategy that redefines and rethinks everything. We call it the Great Technology Reset." - Hans Dekkers Fresh out of the studio, Hans Dekkers, General Manager of IBM Asia Pacific, joins us to explore how enterprise AI is reshaping business across the region. He shares his journey with IBM after business school, reflecting on the evolution of personal computers to AI today. Hans explains IBM's unique approach combining hybrid cloud infrastructure with AI for Enterprise, emphasizing how their granite models and data fabric enable businesses and governments to maintain control over their data while scaling AI capabilities. He highlights customer stories from Indonesian telecoms company to internal IBM transformations, showcasing how companies are re-engineering everything from HR to supply chains using domain-specific AI models. Addressing the challenges of AI implementation, he emphasizes the importance of foundational infrastructure and governance, while advocating for smaller, cost-effective models over GPU-heavy approaches. Closing the conversation, Hans shares his vision for IBM's growing presence in Asia as the key to enterprise AI success.

The Hoover Institution Program on the US, China, and the World hosted Digital Authoritarianism and Strategies to Promote a Democratic Digital Future, on Monday, April 28, 2025 from 4:00 – 5:30 PM PT in the Shultz Auditorium, George P. Shultz Building.    The People's Republic of China is collecting and analyzing unprecedented volumes of data from both public and private sources, within and beyond its borders, for social control. It is leveraging advanced data-centric technologies such as artificial intelligence, neuro and immersive technologies, quantum computing, and digital currencies to enhance and export its authoritarian governance model. This has led to an erosion of privacy, personal freedoms, and a climate of fear and self-censorship within the PRC. As the PRC exports its technologies to other countries, these authoritarian practices may spread globally. What are the most effective strategies for democratic societies to prevent the misuse of emerging technologies for surveillance and control by authoritarian regimes? How can we effectively track and monitor the global spread of data-centric authoritarian practices? What approaches can democratic governments and civil society adopt to develop and promote privacy-preserving solutions that offer viable alternatives to authoritarian methods, while ensuring accountability, transparency, and the protection of human rights? How can we engineer democratic values into the architectures of our technology platforms? In this event, our panel will examine the unique aspects of the PRC's approach to digital authoritarianism and the opportunities for a democratic response. 

It's the UConn Popcast, and what impact will AI have on being human in the next decade? Elon University's Center for Imagining the Digital Future just released a big report on this question, based on a survey of nearly 300 global tech experts. These insiders predict major changes in the very near future to the way we think about work, life, and ourselves. We talked with Lee Rainie, the director of the center and co-author of the report. We also discuss another center report, on the impact of AI on higher education, as well as Lee's earlier career as a political journalist. Lee has spent decades studying expert opinion on technology - before joining Elon he spent 24 years directing the Pew Research Center's studies of the internet. Prior to this, Lee was managing editor of U.S. News and World Report. Learn more about your ad choices.
