Bringing you a very special edition of the Data Powered Innovation Jam podcast, recorded live during a tech road trip through San Francisco and Silicon Valley. This episode blends the city’s musical heritage with cutting-edge innovation, exploring how creativity and technology intersect. Hosts Robert Engels, together with our ‘tech guy’ Alex Bulat dive into conversations with pioneers shaping the future. From AI-driven space situational awareness at Aerospace Corporation to infrastructure-as-code improvization with Pulumi, and groundbreaking health-tech like LogMeal’s nutrition tracking and Uganda’s AI-powered malaria diagnostics at MariTest. Along the way, we uncover trends from TechCrunch Disrupt, GitHub Universe, and Google Cloud AI, highlighting the shift from AI hype to realism, the rise of physical AI, and the global push for purpose-driven AI for Good.
Packed with insights on generative AI, edge computing, and sustainability, this episode is a jam session of ideas where data meets rhythm, and innovation meets impact. Turn the volume up!
