    Human Learning Versus Artificial General Intelligence with Ananta Nair, Artificial Intelligence Engineer at Dell Technologies

    This episode features an interview between Bill Pfeifer and Ananta Nair, Artificial Intelligence Engineer at Dell Technologies, where she leads AI and ML software initiatives for large enterprises.  Ananta discusses differences between human learning and AI models, highlighting the complexities and limitations of current AI technologies. She also touches on the potential and challenges of AI in edge computing, emphasizing the importance of building efficient, scalable, and business-focused models.   -------- Key Quotes:“It's very hard to take these AI structures and say that  they can do all of these very complex things that humans can do, when they're architecturally designed very differently. I'm a big fan of biologically inspired, not biologically accurate.” “Do you really need AGI for a lot of real world applications? No, you don't want that. Do you want some really complex system where you have no idea what you're doing, where you're pouring all this money in and you know, you're not really getting the results that you want? No, you want something very simple outcomes razor approach, make it as simple as possible, scalable, can adapt, can measure for all of your business metrics”  “We have reached a point where you can do the most with AI models with minimal compute than ever. And so I think that is very exciting. I think we have reached a point where you have very capable models that you can deploy at the edge and I think there's a lot of stuff happening in that realm.” -------- Timestamps:  (01:20) How Ananta got started in tech and neuroscience (04:59) Human learning vs AI learning (15:11) Explaining dynamical systems  (26:57) Exploring AI agents and human behavior (30:43) Edge computing and AI models (32:58) Advancements in AI model efficiency -------- Sponsor:Edge solutions are unlocking data-driven insights for leading organizations.

    Tracking the Tour de France: Data and AI on the Road with Shahid Ahmed, EVP for New Ventures and Innovations at NTT

    How does the Tour de France collect data and provide real time stats to viewers? Shahid Ahmed, EVP for New Ventures and Innovations at NTT, argues that the work they do to track the Tour de France is the ultimate edge use case. He also dives into small AI models and localized data at the edge, as well as educating for the future of jobs in tech.  -------- Key Quotes:“ I think [tracking the Tour de France] is one of the most fascinating edge use cases that I've seen in a while…. We’ve got cyclists going at north of 50 miles an hour, 60 miles an hour sometimes, and they're moving across a variety of different towns, villages, mountains, always a challenge from a network coverage perspective. It's a very difficult equation just from that movement part.” “If you tune in to NBC, which covers the Tour de France, or USA Network, which is the sister network, you'll always see the live coverage of stats…. Live data is a must have and it has to have very small latency, meaning it can't be five seconds later when the cyclist has gone down or finished across the line.” Timestamps:  (01:32) How Shahid got started in tech  (04:55) Innovations in 5G (09:06) Challenges and innovations in the Tour de France (18:01) Edge AI and industrial applications (27:38) Lessons from a global role and regulatory challenges (34:03) Teaching Industrial IoT and preparing the workforce -------- Sponsor:Edge solutions are unlocking data-driven insights for leading organizations.

    Bringing High-Tech Solutions to Neurosurgery with Dr. Lawton, President and CEO of Barrow Neurological Institute

    How is technology shaping the future of neurosurgery? In this episode, Bill sits down with Dr. Lawton, President and CEO of Barrow Neurological Institute, Robert F. Spetzler Endowed Chair for Neurosciences, and Chair of the Department of Neurosurgery. Dr. Lawton discusses the ways he is bringing new technologies and innovation to neurosurgery, as well as how it could improve patients outcomes and broaden the field’s scope of impact. --------- Key Quotes:“If we're able to have these huge datasets where we can take all the brain tumor patients and then go back 10 years before they were ever diagnosed and see what was abnormal then, it might open up these ways to predict or diagnose or even prevent some of these diseases before they get started.”  “It's a technological revolution that has all of a sudden allowed us to envision things in neurosurgery that incorporate this tech in ways that we never had 20 years ago… I think probably the best example of that is the brain computer interface. There's the perfect example  of how technology and engineering brought into neurosurgery is going to change the world.” “Instead of taking just six variables, we can take a hundred variables and we can feed them into the black box of AI, and we can look at way more than just those six. And maybe our decision making will be better. Maybe our predictive powers will be different.” -------- Timestamps:  (02:26) Integrating technology in neurosurgery (06:37) Brain-Computer Interfaces  (09:56) Expanding neurosurgical training (19:09) AI in neurosurgery: Diagnostics and beyond (29:16) Mysteries of the Mind and understanding the mind (34:35) Future of neurosurgery in emotional and cognitive interventions -------- Sponsor:Edge solutions are unlocking data-driven insights for leading organizations.

    Building the City of Tomorrow with Bai Lu, Senior Technologist for Global Digital Cities at Dell

    How are digital cities transforming the future of urban living? In this episode, Bill chats with Bai Lu, Senior Technologist for Global Digital Cities at Dell, to explore the evolution of digital cities and how they're redefining traditional urban frameworks. Bai Lu shares her journey from engineering to leading digital transformation while exploring how edge computing reduces latency, boosts security, and powers digital twins for smarter city planning. They also dive into the challenges of building digital city projects and highlight innovations like Toyota’s Woven City, offering a glimpse into the future of more connected, sustainable urban landscapes. --------- Key Quotes:“One way that we can help the city planners using a digital twin platform is to actually help the city planners to predict. What will be the potential issue that is affecting their sustainability plan, like city traffic or air pollution or noise pollution, when they actually want to build a new project?” “The thing that I'm really looking forward to is this equality of using technology for everyone. There will be no limit to anyone because of location, connectivity, or because of age. I believe the future is not far.” -------- Timestamps:  (01:23) Bai Lu's journey into technology (05:17) Edge computing in digital cities (09:02) Digital city projects and use cases (12:44) Understanding digital twins (15:47) Bai Lu's favorite digital cities deployment (21:04) Sustainability in digital cities (27:42) Breaking down the complexities of digital city projects (35:23) Toyota Woven City: A futuristic vision (40:59) Future of digital cities and edge computing -------- Sponsor:Edge solutions are unlocking data-driven insights for leading organizations.
