Podcast highlights: What is Artificial Intelligence and what is Artificial General Intelligence (AGI)? What are the challenges and frustrations that AI could fix for a coder or developer? Can you write code that eventually writes itself with AGI? Podcast notes: Joining Asia Tech Podcast AI today is Frederique Mittelstaedt, the founder of Automorph - a platform that aims to bring the problem solving skills of Artificial General Intelligence to the wider public. Automorph is a program that can write programs (sound a little meta?) Well, this could be the future of any app development or SaaS startup. Fred has already pioneered his own AGI programming language along with well thought out ideas about what constitutes intelligence as well as what makes many of those "fuzzy" skills that we love about being human (like creativity, art and music) something that we could ultimately teach machines.

Podcast highlights: How can we use AI to power prediction? Prediction is an extremely valuable skill but it's also very fuzzy. How do you quantify and code a skill that may involve thousands or millions of fuzzy algorithms? How can you apply AI powered prediction modelling to world events or market movements? Podcast notes: We place too much faith in experts, especially when it come to predicting the future. Experts, of course, failed to predict key world events like the Trump election, Brexit and so on. Justin Wang wants to change that. Scry is an AI powered startup that helps predictors connect with people who want the predictions. There's a whole market out there for these services. Traders can make billions by being right only 51% of the time. Businesses can lose billions by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Scry is a bold attempt at helping us all be on the right side of the future.

Podcast highlights: What does it take to become a successful entrepreneur and what kind of entrepreneurial teams do accelerators like Zeroth.ai look for in their batches? What are the less common applications of AI that don't necessarily grab the media headlines but are equally valuable (e.g. agriculture, training)? Why does Asia need an AI focused accelerator to help startups? Podcast notes: Tak Lo is the founder of Zeroth.ai - the Artificial Intelligence accelerator based in Hong Kong. In this interview we covered the “why” questions - why do we need AI-specific accelerator programs for startups? why did Tak get into this space in the first space? why is Tak the right person to mentor and lead a new generation of Artificial Intelligence startup founders in Asia?

Podcast highlights: How do AI powered scheduling assistants like Evie work? Do people become emotionally attached to artificially intelligent agents? Is that anthropomorphism or is it a genuine sign of intelligence? What future opportunities can a scheduling assistant provide for its developer? Now that you have mastered a narrow-band remit of commands and outputs where could you take that domain knowledge to? Podcast notes: If you ever ask my next guest Are you free to catch up Next Wednesday?  You may find his Personal Assistant EVIE step in and arrange that schedule with you. What you may not know is that EVIE isn’t a real person but an AI Personal Assistant, and it’s pretty impressive too… I’m an AI graduate so I’m pretty aware of most AI-looking things from chatbots to the Turing Test… but the first time I interacted with Evie, I thought she was a real person, it was that good… So, to lift the lid on the life of his assistant, I’m joined today in the ATP Stories studio by Praveen Velu, Co-Founder
