Let’s go to space!!!! This week, we're diving into the cutting edge of AI in space with Pratish Shah of Aitech. Pratish and I discuss Aitech's IQSat - the world's first AI-enabled picosatellite constellation platform, and how the shift to AI in space computing is changing the economics and timeline for collecting and analyzing data beyond Earth. We'll also cover the immense challenges of...

My podcast guest this week is Andy Hock, Chief Strategy Officer at Cerebras. Andy and I are discuss the the revolutionary details of the Cerebras Wafer-Scale Engine (WSE). We also explore where the next major competitive frontier lies for AI hardware, how the latest WSE addresses the critical latency and energy efficiency challenges of deploying massive AI models for inference and Cerebras' role...

In this week’s podcast, we’re diving deep into the technology that is driving the next wave of enterprise digital transformation: Private 5G. My guest is Parm Sandhu, Group Vice President of Enterprise 5G Products and Services at NTT DATA, Inc. Parm and I chat about how NTT is tackling the biggest misconceptions businesses have about Private 5G today and what key considerations you need to keep...

This week we're talking all about the future of embedded software development with TASKING Co-CEO Christoph Herzog. Christoph and I explore how Large Language Models and agentic AI are moving from novelty to necessity, directing external agents within the TASKING toolchain to automate critical verification and validation tasks. We also discuss the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and how it helps...

In this week's podcast, we're diving deep into the world of RF system design! My guest is Giorgia Zucchelli from MathWorks. Giorgia and I explore what an RF digital twin is, how it revolutionizes the design and validation workflow, and how AI is playing a critical role in its development.

This week, we’re diving into the hidden challenges of AI infrastructure with David Driggers, CEO of Cirrascale. David and I chat about the surprising failure points that traditional data center planning often misses when it comes to large-scale AI deployments, why old assumptions about power, cooling, and networking simply don’t hold up anymore and why the “just add GPUs” strategy can be a recipe...

Today, we're diving deep into the future of connectivity, networking, and computing with a look at a revolutionary concept: the Innovative Optical and Wireless Network, or IOWN. My podcast guest is Marco Provolo, Head of IOWN and NTT R&D Global Promotion Office. Marco and I discuss what IOWN is, why the shift from silicon to photonics is so crucial, how NTT is working with international...

In this week’s podcast, we're stepping onto the frontier of battery innovation! My guest is Volexion CEO Joe Adiletta. Joe and I discuss why some battery materials perform great in a lab but fail in real world production, what “designing backward from the factory” means in terms of battery design and the role that manufacturing plays when it comes to the scaling of these kinds of advanced...

This week, I'm excited to welcome Sandra Rivera from VSORA! We dive into a discussion on why AI inference is essential for deployment at scale, specifically focusing on how VSORA’s patented software architecture addresses the "memory wall" by collapsing memory layers. We explore their recent tape-out, which promises approximately 3X the performance at half the power of leading GPUs. We also chat...

In this week’s Fish Fry, I’m excited to welcome back Rob Knoth from Cadence Design Systems! Rob and I dive into a major shift in electronic design automation: the direct integration of artificial intelligence into the design workflow. Rob and I discuss the details of Cadence’s newest innovation - the ChipStack AI Super Agent and Cadence’s overarching strategies of 'design for AI' and 'AI for...
