    Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold7 is a "no-compromise" foldable tablet-phone, and the ultimate productivity device, giving the category the best chance to be mainstream.  In this episode, I talk to Tyler Gipson, newly minted Head of Mobile B2B Sales at Samsung America, about the company's B2B/Enterprise strategy, how he plans to translate Samsung's consumer brand equity into B2B leadership, role of foldables, especially Z Fold7, and services such as Galaxy AI, Knox and Dex in enterprises, as well as plans to address the hefty price-tag of Z Fold7, which is the only remaining hurdle for the device.  Also, don't forget to check out: Galaxy Z Fold7 review — A ‘no-compromise’ foldable tablet-phone- https://bit.ly/3Ulxxq0 Tantra's Notes Blog - Recapping and Analyzing Galaxy Unpacked- https://bit.ly/44L8RgD

    Network APIs are heralded as a game changer in the ongoing struggle of 5G operators to make a good return on their enormous investments in building these highly capable networks. Unlike previous attempts, stars might be aligning this time to make APIs successful.

We discuss the reasons for Aduna’s existence, how it collaborates with the GSMA’s Open Gateway initiative and the Linux Foundation’s CAMARA project, typical use cases, target verticals, traction so far, the role of hyperscalers, who have their own large app ecosystems, which is crucial for API proliferation, and more.

    A primer on Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) with Peter Voss

    AI is jumping from one hype cycle to another. First, it was simple AI, then came Generative AI, and currently, we are reeling from Agentic AI. The new term is already lurking—Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).  Actually, AGI is pretty old, dating back to the early 2000s. What is it, and why is it gathering attention now? I talk to the person who came up with the very term--Peter Voss, CEO & Chief Scientist at Aigo.ai. We delve into how AGI mimics human learning functions, how it differs from Gen AI, why it is cost- and power-efficient by orders of magnitude, whether today's Gen AI can evolve into AGI, and more. We also discuss whether AGI's human-like learning can create cyborgs and Skynet.
