Some of you listening might be thinking that Wifi 6 only launched a couple of years ago, and, well, you’d be forgiven for doing so. Launched in 2020, its rollour was hamstrung by COVID and the standard only became dominant in the last year or two. But now there’s a new standard: WiFi 7. It’s due to be ratified by the end of this year, although it’s already appearing in cert

In this episode we are looking at the growing market for no code or low code app development. The premise is simple. Rather than coding an app or tool yourself, you simply drag and drop pre-existing components, data sources, and data outputs into a map, and set the actions to whatever you need. However, there are challenges, including the creation of shadow IT systems within an org

2024 has already been a difficult year for extreme weather. The hurricane season on the eastern seaboard of North America is already one of the earliest active seasons on record. Meanwhile, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in the US, as of August 8th, this year has already seen 19 weather events cause damage upwards of a billion dollars, with

The global market for databases grew by 12.8% in 2023, according research by Gartner, and is now worth some $102bn annually. Within that, data science and AI platforms were the fastest-growing subsegments.Clearly, there’s a growing need for smart database solutions that can interpret data and provide insights to all levels and roles within an organization. And it’s one of those

Machine-learning based Generative AI is inherently inefficient. Training models by sifting findings again and again until a suitable output is generated is a time-consuming – end energy-consuming – process. So, could there be a better way to look at training our AI systems? Well, one possible option is physics-based AI, where training is viewed as an energy grid, and the best p

There are math problems that are hard. So hard that even current computers cannot solve them. To get around these problems, we need to re-think the very foundation of how we architect our IT, by using a technological field called 'novel accelerators'.It sounds complicated, but today's guest is particularly skilled at explaining incredibly complicated concepts. He says: "Right now,

In this episode, we’ll be taking you on a trip to London for the final race weekend of the 10th season of the Formula E championship, which was held on the weekend of the 20th and 21st July. We’ve been looking at the tech behind the event, how Formula E is transforming the world of racing, and what our organisations can learn from the cutting edge of motorsport.One of those are

Subscription-based IT is becoming increasingly popular – not just for software, but also for hardware. This means our IT is increasingly not a capital investment, but an operational expense, which means different people are paying for it from different budgets. And those people aren’t always the most IT savvy.So, what does this mean for our organisations, and how do we make sur

In the past couple of years, the world has seen the unprecedented growth and development of machine learning and AI applications, along with a huge spike in demand for new systems. This rising demand for AI services has, according to today’s guest, stifled competition to supply AI to those with a lot of resources, and caused uneven access for the rest of us. In this episode we ar

In this episode we are looking at the dilemma being faced by organisations across the world when it comes to moving forward with innovations in technology, whilst also being wary of cyber security issues.In fact, according to research by HPE Aruba Networking, just under two thirds of IT leaders believe their companies are missing out for that very reason. Here to discuss an approac
