    The Black Box Problem: Why We Need to Understand AI

    In this episode of Tech as it is, Ursula Paul breaks down one of the most important challenges in modern AI: the black box problem. What does it really mean when people say AI is a “black box”? Why does interpretability matter? And why should enterprises especially in fintech and healthtech care about understanding how AI systems make decisions? Using real-life examples from healthcare and financial systems, Ursula explains interpretability in simple, human terms. Because when AI affects money, health, or opportunity, mystery is not good enough. If AI is going to power serious systems, it must be understandable.

    Technology in my home

    Welcome to Tech As It Is — a space where we make tech feel human. In this first episode, I’m reflecting on what it means to live in a home that thinks for you — where Alexa scans the stores, compares prices, and plans your errands before you even ask. It’s not just about smart devices; it’s about balance — between convenience and control, between innovation and intention. Join me as we pause to ask: what kind of relationship are we building with the technology we’ve created? 🎧 Because even in a world of automation, your human voice still matters. #Technology #TechPodcast #SmartHome #AI #Innovation #DigitalLife #FutureOfTech #HumanAndTech #TechAsItIs #UrsulaPaul #FaithAndTech #TechReflection #TechTrends #Automation #SmartLiving
