So I think we need to tell people what this new podcast is all about. Welcome, everyone, to the Tech Download. I think there it's going to be like the Industrial Revolution, but maybe 10 times bigger, 10 times faster. So, you know, it's an incredible amount of transformation, but also disruption that's going to happen. This podcast will tell you everything you need to know about the technology stories that matter most with me, Arjun Kharpal, in London. And me, Steve Kovach, in New York. And I feel like it's our duty, our moral duty in this generation to make sure that we're providing the infrastructure for the students and the teachers to help shape what the future looks like.
0:39Each season dives into a different topic with some of the smartest people giving you a unique insight into the world of tech and what that can mean for your money. So when we think about responsible AI at Google DeepMind, we're not seeing it as something where it's slowing down progress or it's about hitting the brakes. Instead, it's about us thoughtfully designing it from the very, very beginning. In this season, we're focusing on Google DeepMind, the brains behind Google's AI push, speaking to key people at the company, including a one-on-one with its founder, Demis Hassabis. I've always thought that in the end, it would be the most important technology we'll ever invent.
1:16And I think it's sort of the natural progression, really, of the computer age. Look out for the first episode dropping on the 16th of January, wherever you get your podcasts on YouTube and of course on CNBC.com.
