In this episode of Techstrong Gang, Jon Swartz, Mitch Ashley and Guy Currier dive into the hot topics shaking up the tech landscape. Has AI lost its halo? Our experts debate the implications of this shift in AI governance. The gang also explores the growing concerns around biometrics — are we moving too fast in adopting these technologies without considering the risks? Plus, chaos engineering continues to challenge traditional approaches to building resilient systems.

Mike, Mitch, Jon and special guest Hope Lynch take stock of the x86 alliance between Intel and AMD before discussing how a joint effort led by Lenovo and NVIDIA might reduce the energy needed to power artificial intelligence (AI) applications. Then, the gang examines what BMC Software is up to now that it is splitting into two independent companies, both investing in various forms of AI.

Today’s Techstrong Gang features Alan Shimel, Mike Vizard and Futurum analyst Paul Nashawaty discussing whether cloud native has crossed the chasm to mainstream adoption, as evidenced by the findings of the DevOps Next report. The gang also examines the U.S. government's investigation into recent breaches, allegedly by hackers with links to the Chinese government, targeting major American-based ISPs. Finally, they discuss digital twins and the Digital Twin Consortium's efforts to promote standards for building digital twins models.

In this episode of Techstrong Gang, Stephen Foskett, Bonnie Schnieder and Alan Shimel discuss AMD's bold plans in AI computing space and how realistic they are. The gang also looks on the market reluctance to upgrade to Windows 11, despite it being almost 4 years old and Windows 10 support ending soon. In the last block the idea of indoor solar panels and how they can change our battery usage and sustainability numbers are discussed including a special report from Bonnie Schneider.

Mike, Jon and special guests Tracy Ragan, Traci Bannon and John Willis discus when we might someday be able to actually hail a cyber cab that Elon Musk launched last week with much fanfare. Then the gang assess the state of women in the STEM fields following a report published by MetLife before having a candid conversation about the current state of best DevSecOps adoption in an era where more individuals of varying levels of expertise are writing code.

Alan, Mike, Jon and special guests Hope Lynch and Lisa Martin, the CMO Advisor for The Futurum Group, discuss the dramatic increase in fraud likely to be perpetrated using generative artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Then, the gang turns its attention to the emerging battle over integrated DevOps platforms.
