    UTX #026 - Richard Olsen on Lykke, Finance, and Symbiosis

    At UTX, we often times talk about technology being at the center of human progress. Which is true. But there is another factor which we shouldn't forget about, namely how the fruits of technological progress are reaped and distributed, which today is not done in an equal manner.



    Richard Olsen's mission is to work against inequality by providing access to financial markets to everyone. With his background as a PhD of law from the University of Zurich and over 25 years of professional experience as an FX dealer, a researcher, a high-frequency trading specialist and a serial entrepreneur of financial marketplaces, he is more than well-served to do so.



    The great-grandfather of the crypto sector himself, Richard is founder and CEO of Lykke, a Swiss marketplace and pioneer provider of investment and trading infrastructure for blockchain assets. He previously founded Oanda, a forex and CFD trading platform and data service for traders, acquired by the large private equity firm CVC Capital Partners in 2018. He also co-authored the book "Introduction to High-Frequency Finance".



    Lykke is the Danish word for "happiness". Join our talk with Richard to learn more about why finance can be a source of global happiness and how Richard and his companies are contributing for that to happen.

    UTX #025 - Danila Medvedev on Transhumanism, Immortality, and (Artificial) Intelligence

    If we can extend our life span, potentially to immortality, we can increase the knowledge and capabilities of the human colossus, become mature, wiser, and ultimately better beings.



    Danila Medvedev has made it his life's mission to extend human life and to prove to nature that intelligence is not a mistake, but can in fact co-exist with its surroundings.



    Danila works on an inconceivable number of different projects to achieve that. He is founder of the Russian Transhumanist Movement and several companies and initiatives in areas such as cryonics, nanotechnology and intelligence augmentation.



    Join our talk with Danila to learn more about why nature doesn't have to be our limit, why you might plan for life after death and why you should be excited about getting your body cryopreserved after you die.

    UTX #024 - Keroles Riad on 3D Printing, Stereolithography, and Nanomaterials

    UTX #024 - Keroles Riad on 3D Printing, Stereolithography, and Nanomaterials

    3D printing stands at the dawn of a potential industrial revolution, allowing for rapid prototyping, high customization and removing the barriers between production and consumption.





    Our guest today is Keroles Riad, a mechanical engineer and PhD candidate at Concordia University, Canada. He researches various materials for 3D printing and manufacturing, including nanomaterials and carbon composites.





    He focuses on stereolithography techniques, which apply light in a 3D printing setup to shape liquid materials. He works on challenges such as making those materials be able to withstand sunlight, or making them more robust.





    Join us in our conversation with Kero to learn about the cutting edge research that he is doing, why he is concerned about the social implications of it and why leads an initiative that tackles those concerns.

    UTX #023 - Patrick Cason on OpenMined, Private AI and Data Ownership

    UTX #023 - Patrick Cason on OpenMined, Private AI and Data Ownership

    The major adoption barrier of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and arguably technology in general is access to data. The conflict between the need for large datasets for learning and increased concerns regarding data privacy can only be solved with better technology and increased awareness about the opportunities and unprecedented problem solving potential that data has for our society. This is where OpenMined hits. The open-source community was founded by Oxford PhD student and Google DeepMind Researcher Andrew Trask during the blockchain boom in 2017. In the meantime, the community has grown to more than 11'000 members worldwide and has worked on advocating the use of privacy to accelerate AI's progress in solving society's biggest problems like cancer prediction and prevention, extending popular machine learning libraries like PyTorch and Tensorflow with privacy-preserving capabilities for the whole machine learning process. Through remote execution, encrypted computation and differential privacy, it allows users to privately run a machine learning model on data of one or many remote devices while preserving the privacy of that data, as well as to share model results without exposing the model or the data that it trained on. The potential for remote computation with differential privacy and homomorphic encryption to train and run machine learning models on the world's data previously hidden by lack of trust and privacy concerns is limitless. Join our talk with OpenMined Founding Member and Engineering Lead Patrick Cason to learn more about OpenMined and how it solves privacy and thus the future of AI.

    UTX #021 - The Map of Emerging Technologies

    Map of Emerging Technologies (MET): bit.ly/utx-met



    We believe that technology and its adoption is the key to human progress, as well as to make us happier and healthier, creating a sustainable economy and increasing our living standard. This core hypothesis was what led us to create Utopian Techniax (UTX) in the first place. We love technology for what it's able to do for us, if we use it the right way.



    So we decided to create a "Map of Emerging Technologies" or MET. The map is meant to give a comprehensive overview of emerging technologies with various degrees of maturity, as well as their major use cases per sector. An approach focused on research and interviews by the UTX team, the technologies were selected based on their potential to shape and define "Utopian Earth", a plastic representation of our emergent future in the next 50 years.



    In this episode, we discuss the major emerging technology applications per sector for 10 different sectors and areas of life. We also discuss major challenges and roadblocks for emerging technology adoption along 8 key macro-environmental areas. Join us for the ride to Utopian Earth!
