Wearables bring the possibility of a future where our health is continuously monitored so we can have the best quality of life, whether that's preventing disease, living healthier or alleviating symptoms of disease. The wearables market grew 22% in 2022 yet only 1 in 5 Americans use wearable. In this podcast, I explore the research that being done on wearables and the gaps in wearables becoming as widely adopted as a mobile phone.

Generative Ai is the hottest tech trend at the moment because it can be applied to almost every industry. I interviewed Chanchal Chatterjee because he has been in the AI field for 6 years and has a PHD in machine learning from Purdue University. Chanchal is a Senior Deep Learning Software lead at Nvidia where he leads software development for Nvidia’s deep learning enterprise server platform. Previously he was a Senior AI infrastructure lead at Meta and before that an AI and Industry Solutions Lead at Google. 

Topics covered in this episode:

• How to learn generative AI 

• Use cases for generative AI

• Should there be regulation of generative AI? 

• Will there be Artificial General Intelligence?

Taxis where there isn't a human driver are starting to make their way onto the streets. On February 13th, Zoox launched the world's first robotaxi on public roads in Foster City California.  

You might be wondering:

- How safe are these cars?
- What does it take for a car to make it on the road? 

Anything that is new usually sparks some fear, especially when we feel like we're losing control. That's why I interviewed an engineer at Zoox to explain how Zoox cars work. Olivier is a Principal Software Engineer at Zoox on the Planning and Control team where he helps build the infrastructure that allows Zoox's robotaxis to drive autonomously. He has been supporting the development of autonomous vehicles at Zoox for the past 8 years. Previously, Olivier was a supervisor at NASA at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) where he worked on technologies to enhance the autonomy of unmanned vehicles, such as the Mars exploration rovers. Olivier holds a M.S. in Aeronautics and Astronautics from MIT and a M.S. in Aeronautical Engineering from SUPAERO (France).
