Following on from a very successful pilot at the Museum of Craft and Design (MCD) in San Francisco Envision's AI assistant Ally could help to open up access to museums for blind and partially sighted people.  RNIB Connect Radio's Toby Davey was joined by Karthik Mahadevan, CEO and co-founder of Envision to firstly find out how the pilot project came about using Ally to open up access to museums for blind and partially sighted people.  Karthik also explained to Toby how the technology works in a museum and also shared some of the comments and feedback from visually impaired people who took part in the pilot. To find out more about Envision and the AI assistant Ally do visit - https://www.ally.me/museums (Image shows the RNIB Connect Radio logo.

In this episode of Talking Real Money, Don and Tom dive into the latest crypto chaos, pushing back against Ric Edelman's bold prediction that ETFs will vanish within five years due to tokenization. They explain why that claim is both misleading and premature. Callers ask about tax shelters disguised as life insurance, sketchy “Tax Act 2020” gimmicks, trust issues with advisors, and the realities of Roth conversions and the pro-rata rule. They also revisit the case for holding Bitcoin—and why it's still mostly a speculative play, not a currency. As always, the tone is skeptical, the advice is candid, and the laughs are real. 0:04 The investing world is full of nonsense, and it's our job to help you navigate it. 1:11 Vacation shaming and industry cynicism: Who's out to mess with your head for money? 2:06 Ric Edelman's latest: ETFs will vanish in 5 years due to tokenization. Really? 3:15 Explaining blockchain and why it's not replacing ETFs anytime soon. 5:14 Tokenization = new gimmicks, more “opportunities” to come for your money. 6:47 Appella ad: FFR—Financial Flinch Reflex. Side effects may include peace of mind. 7:48 Why tokenized securities are still a regulatory mess waiting to happen. 9:04 Caller Karthik: Insurance guy pitching Code 7702 “tax-free income” plan. Nope. 10:29 Explaining how life insurance gimmicks really work (and why they're awful). 11:39 Karthik's “Tax Act 2020” pitch = tax shelter scam with distressed bonds. 13:00 Don't fall for tax-first pitches. Build a plan, not a loophole. 14:31 Most financial pros aren't fiduciaries—skepticism is essential. 16:01 “Don't trust until you verify.” Reagan said it. So did we. 16:49 How to ask questions: phone, email, voice recordings. 17:48 Caller David: If Bitcoin is hoarded, how can it be useful? 18:59 Answer: Greater Fool Theory. Crypto is speculation, not utility. 20:38 Bitcoin has finite supply… but still doesn't work like a true currency. 22:08 Bitcoin's two real uses: speculation and shadowy transactions. 23:15 For Bitcoin to be a true currency, it must be widely accepted. It's not. 24:48 Caller Ellen: Trust issues with her advisor—she feels ignored. 25:30 She pays 1%, holds Schwab ETFs, and gets canned responses. 27:27 Communication is key. Cost may be fair, but service is falling short. 28:42 Good advice starts with you, not a pitch. Her guy sounds like an AUM chaser. 31:39 Advisors matter in retirement too—good ones prevent dumb mistakes. 32:55 Ellen asks: do fees still make sense once I start withdrawing money? 34:44 Caller Bill: Confused about the pro-rata rule for Roth conversions. 36:24 Quick pro-rata explainer: if your IRA is mixed, you pay taxes proportionally. 37:10 If you're willing to pay tax on the full amount, IRS is fine with that. 38:36 “Just 86 the whole thing” – don't sweat a few grand in basis from 1987.

What if chatbots result in the next generation never learning to write? It's a doomsday scenario that we keep coming back to in our series on AI writing tools. If AI can craft essays and compose emails instantly, why would kids bother mastering grammar, sentence structure, or the art of putting thoughts into words? And here's the terrifying follow-up—if they never learn to write, will they lose the ability to truly read and think critically too?If you've been spiraling down that educational apocalypse rabbit hole, this episode might cheer you up. We're talking with Sonia and Karthik, the team behind SuperDecoders, who are taking a different approach to AI in education. Instead of replacing human creativity, their AI-powered writing tool acts like a personal writing coach for kids—the kind of personalized attention that could help kids develop their writing skills rather than bypass them entirely.Our discussion with them left us genuinely optimistic about the future. Sometimes the best way to navigate new technology isn't to ban it, but to find smarter ways to use it.Remember, we have a Writers Process meetup every Wednesday. Check us out.

In this episode of Procurement Reimagined, we speak with Karthik Rama, CEO and Principal Consultant at Procurement Doctors to discuss the evolution of procurement practices, common mistakes made by professionals, and the importance of mentorship.   Karthik shares personal experiences, lessons learned from failures, and insights into the current landscape of procurement, emphasizing the need for a balance between traditional skills and technological advancements. The conversation also highlights the significance of human connection in procurement and concludes with recommendations for thought leaders in the field.   Takeaways The biggest mistake in procurement can be viewing it as a data entry job. Understanding the broader context of procurement can enhance effectiveness. Siloed thinking in procurement can lead to project failures. Due diligence is crucial in consulting and procurement projects. A balance between technology and traditional procurement skills is essential. Emotional intelligence is a key skill for procurement professionals. Growing in breadth of knowledge is more important than job hopping.

Sathwik had pet cats, and Thanvi had pet ducks.But there was a big problem. There wasn't enough food, and the water was dirty. The poor pets were getting sick. Everyone in the village was very sad.Near their huts, there were some caves. People believed there was treasure hidden inside. So, many villagers started looking for the treasure.One day, they found a secret cave! But oh no—the cave had a big lock, and they couldn't open it. They searched and searched for the key, but they couldn't find it.Then, Karthik had an idea. “Let's break the lock!” he said. They worked together and finally opened the cave. Inside, there was no gold… but there was a shiny, colorful cap!They picked it up and asked, “Can you talk?”To their surprise, the cap said, “Yes!”It was a magical cap! The cap could give anything the villagers needed. Every day, the villagers came to the cave, asked for food, clean water, and other things, and the cap gave it all to them.The pets became healthy again, and the village was happy. The magical cap helped everyone live a better life.And they all lived happily ever after.

On this edition of Parallax Views, the Quincy Institute's Karthik Sankaran—writer, analyst, and longtime observer of global macroeconomic trends—joins the program to unpack the Trump administration's sweeping new tariff policy. Billed as a "reciprocal tariff" strategy, the move abandons long-held trade norms like Most Favored Nation (MFN) status in favor of a confrontational approach that targets countries based on bilateral trade deficits with the U.S. We'll end begin by discussing the logic and methodology that Karthik believes are driving the Trump tariff policies. We'll also delve into why the tariffs have been criticized across the board by neoliberals (of which Karthik describes himself as), right-wing libertarians like Thomas Sowell, and even progressively minded protectionists. The conversation will also delve into an area of particular interest to Karthik: how this will effect the Global South. We'll also delve into what the tariffs mean for U.S. foreign policy and international relations, why Brazil may come out of this better than other countries, what the tariffs mean for Europe and the EU, nearshoring vs. off-shoring and how nearshoring could be beneficial to Mexico, the U.S. move towards economic protectionism even under Biden, and what the tariffs mean for China. Also, Karthik will address listeners that disagree with his neoliberal worldview. Karthik describes himself as a "Neoliberal Peacenik". Whether or not you agree with his overview worldview, hopefully you'll find it interesting and informative.

Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn   https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com Today, we sit down with Karthik Natarajan, Solutions Engineering Manager, U.S. Public Sector, for SNYK. SNYK has garnered a formidable reputation in the commercial sector by helping to identify and fix vulnerabilities in code, open-source dependencies, and container images. Karthik Natarajan acknowledges that no code can be 100% secure; however, one way to improve by a magnitude is to incorporate the “Shift Left” approach. This phrase has been around for twenty years but has recently gained momentum. The concept of shift left moves testing and performance evaluation to an earlier part of the software development lifecycle. But SNYK goes further by applying AI to look at open-source dependencies. When infrastructure transitions to “infrastructure as code,” vulnerabilities may be included. SNYK also looks for vulnerabilities in infrastructure code. The interview ends with Karthik explaining that SNYK's success is due to it being written for cloud applications- it is cloud native.  Also, they judiciously use AI and rigorously check corrections to code that may introduce trouble.    

While we like to think our financial decisions are based on logic, the truth is, they are largely driven by emotion. So when John Maynard Keynes looked for methods to measure economic fluctuations, animal spirits were a key ingredient. Karthik Sastry is a macroeconomist and assistant professor at Princeton University. In this podcast, he says personal instincts and primal urges are known to cause cycles of boom and bust, and one way to gauge those emotions is through economic narratives. Sastry is coauthor with Joel Flynn of How Animal Spirits Affect the Economy published in Finance and Development magazine. Transcript: https://bit.ly/43HkuoB Read the article at IMF.org/fandd

This podcast is about big ideas on how technology is making life better for people with vision loss. Technology developed specifically for people with low vision has historically been bespoke, specific, and expensive, requiring the creation of new technology for a relatively small population of users. But recently we're seeing a paradigm shift from building new vision tech from scratch to building on top of existing technology that most people use daily. In this episode, Dr. Cal talks with Karthik Mahadevan, the founder and CEO of Envision, about how his technology company builds on existing tech, like smartphones and smart glasses, to benefit users with low vision. Envision's software uses AI to recognize important visual cues in a user's environment and then relays that information to the user with computer-generated speech. Karthik's breakthrough realization early on that he didn't need to build hardware when he could just tap into the cameras of smartphones and smart glasses that people already owned, enabling Envision to reach a much wider audience. The episode also features an interview with Troy Otillio, the CEO of Aira. Aira's platform links users to a human visual interpreter, who can access the camera on their device and guide the user through the task, whether reading a letter, navigating a grocery store, or finding their way around an unfamiliar city. Ultimately, the future of creating vision technology might not be in reinventing the wheel but in improving it and figuring out how to turn the tech people already use every day into easy and accessible solutions for people with low vision.   The Big Takeaways Building on Existing Tech: Karthik stresses that for vision tech to be impactful, it has to be accessible. He describes his inspiration as building on top of existing consumer technology to create Envision and thus create a product that millions of people already have the hardware to operate. Later, Dr. Cal discusses the “Taco Bell Phenomenon”, which theorizes that while there may be no such thing as a new idea, the novel combinations of existing ideas are so infinite that they may be limitless. The Importance of a Visual Interpreter: Karthik discusses the limitations of communication formats such as braille and audio announcements in public places for people with vision impairment. While well-meaning, they can never really provide complete access to spaces that are meant to be navigated visually. That's where Envision comes in, allowing access to the camera on a smartphone or smart glasses to give the user a complete and accurate sense of their environment. Would You Like a Human for That?: To AI or not to AI? Speech-to-text technology is advanced enough that it can excel at reading something simple like a gas bill or a chicken soup recipe. But what if you got a birthday card from your grandchildren? Troy Otillio discusses how Aira recently partnered with Envision to offer their human visual interpreters as part of Envision's technology — providing camera access to a human agent who can fully understand the nuance of the user's situation. We Don't Make Hardware: A small market company like Envision doesn't have the capacity to build smart glasses (or smartphones) from scratch. The cost would be too high for a company that necessarily has a limited user base. Instead, the future of vision technology is likely to be in creating apps or finding novel uses for hardware that already exists. This will provide accessibility to people with vision impairments via tools they're already quite familiar with.   Tweetables “In the future, these AI are going to interact with other AIs… You know, someone like a Walmart will have their own AI. Someone like a Target will have their own AI. And your AI can speak to that AI and ask for specific information. And that's when it becomes super, super exciting.” — Karthik Mahadevan, Envision Founder & CEO “So for many years, consumer electronics was evolving in one direction, and assistive technology was evolving in a different direction. But what I noticed recently is this merger of the two: that consumer electronics are becoming more accessible.” — Dr. Cal Roberts, Lighthouse Guild President & CEO “You can look at Aira as just a layer, an accessibility layer that exists for when an automated solution, a pure software solution, doesn't work or when there is no solution, right? We're like that, call it a backstop, a more general purpose layer that you can always fall back to.” — Troy Otillio, Aira CEO   Contact Us: Contact us at podcasts@lighthouseguild.org with your innovative new technology ideas for people with vision loss.   Pertinent Links Lighthouse Guild Envision Aira

Billions of dollars are poured into global development every year, but results are lacking, says economist Karthik Muralidharan. Diving into an example with public education, he outlines how smarter resource allocation and evidence-based interventions, like learning software that dynamically responds to students and teaches at the level that's right for them, can accelerate global development worldwide — not by spending more, but by spending smarter.
