• #8 AI: from Greek to Geek

  Episode 8: AI: from Greek fo GeekWelcome to Episode 8! In "AI: From Greek to Geek" is the last one we recorded at #NetworkX 2024 in Paris. Our guest is Israel Madiedo, Innovation and Technology Director at izzi.AI is a very hot topic this year and this is why we invited Israel (Izzy! Yes, he works at a company that has the same name and yes, that is a coincidence, but, how cool?!) to talk to us about AI. Izzy takes us to what he believes is the start of AI, which dates back to the ancient Greek. What follows is a journey across dreaming machines and the possibility of an AI winter. Not sure if that will happen, but an AI climate change seems inevitable. Guest: Israel Madiedo - Innovation and Technology Director at izziLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/israel-madiedo-571476/More information:Yellow Medusa on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@yellowmedusaAbout the hosts:Frank de JongFrank has over 30 years of experience in the world of telecommunications and IT.
