Ever wonder how technology impinges on productivity? Is it boosting our output or just an illusion of efficiency? Join us as Nathan and Mike, dive straight into this paradox, and also ponder over Twitter’s logo transition to an ‘X’. With a shot of whiskey from our in-house connoisseur Marc, we navigate the digital maze and bring out the real implications of this change.

What if you could prove your humanity to your computer? Intriguing, isn’t it? The WorldID concept is just that and much more. We also find time to venture into the world of reality TV, discussing the unique premise of Netflix’s new show, Zombieverse. As a special treat, we have Phil Hennessy on board for a fascinating chat about the fusion of human brain cells with AI—a talk that will surely make you question the potential of artificial intelligence.

But the tech-talk doesn’t stop there. We delve into the Dish Brain System with a Battlestar Galactica storyline. You’ll also get to reflect on the historic Cape Canaveral launch.

Tune in for a tech ride that’s informative, thought-provoking, and entertaining at the same time.
