Ep2: Are companies adapting to AI well enough? with Dr. Gopichand Katragadda

Author: The Hindu June 28, 2024 Duration: 39:51
In the last four centuries, corporations have used innovative tools and advanced technologies to build products that transformed societies. Thanks to globalisation, some transnational corporations today are larger than many nation-states. But how are these large enterprises approaching the current wave of artificial intelligence?  That's the question I will be exploring with my guest Dr. Gopichand Katragadda, the President of the Institution of Engineering and Technology and Founder of Myelin Foundry, a deep tech start up. Previously, he was the Group Chief Technology Office of Tata Sons where he spearheaded innovation across the $100 billion conglomerate. Before his stint at TATA, Dr. Gopi led General Electric's Technology Centre that built several innovative products. Host: John Xavier, Technology Editor, The Hindu Produced by Sharmada Venkatasubramanian

John Xavier, the tech editor at The Hindu, hosts The Interface, a podcast that sits at the crossroads where emerging technologies meet daily life and global business. Rather than just reporting on the latest gadgets or software updates, the conversations here dig into the tangible effects of AI, automation, and robotics-how these forces are actively reshaping entire industries and, by extension, the choices we all face. Each episode is built on the premise that understanding the trajectory of tech is less about predicting the future and more about developing a flexible, informed mindset for the changes already underway. You’ll hear thoughtful analysis on the implications behind the headlines, exploring not just what is happening, but why it matters for policy, work, and society. This isn't a series of breathless hype cycles; it's a grounded guide from a seasoned editor, offering clarity on a dynamic landscape that often feels overwhelming. Tune in for a consistently insightful perspective that helps make sense of the rapid evolution happening just beyond the screen.
