This week, AB has an amazing chat with Paul Stevens, CEO of Voltitude, a company focused on exploring and unlocking the potential of the stratosphere for research and commercial applications.
Voltitude is currently exploring the use of small, low-cost, biodegradable latex balloons to carry meteorological sensors (dropsondes) into the stratosphere. Paul discusses the challenges of high-altitude flight and the potential for using ma...
Is point'n'click end-to-end low-code spatial AI... possible? What about *no code*? Spoiler alert: the answers are yes and yes. Knowledge of development patterns and code syntax and how many words you can type per minute are no longer barriers to entry for most of us. It's time to get our hands dirty with spatial data!

This week is a free-flowing conversation between AB and Arseniy Sergeyev - a true 'young gun' of the spatial computing world - and the co-founder of a startup working on Adaptive User Interfaces. Arseniy shares his vision of a future where the world becomes the interface, with smart objects and environments adapting to individual users.

This week, AB talks Alison Keely, the inaugural Director of the Innovative Planet Research Institute at Swinburne University in Victoria Australia. We touch on the institute's focus on achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals, harnessing innovation for real-world impact, and building partnerships within Swinburne and externally. AB also *finally* learns the right way to say the word "geodesists".

The last month has seen the release of 4 large language models, with one noticeable trait in common - they're all exceedingly fast. Does this open up new horizons for new ways of interacting with these LLMs - or are they still only good for the known use cases... just faster?

Violet asks "How does an environment become intelligent with spatial sensing?" We discuss the concept of spatial intelligence in environments enabled by interconnected sensors, devices and systems - and the potential benefits like energy optimization in buildings or traffic coordination between self-driving cars, but also limitations around privacy concerns, commercial viability and single-purpose systems.

Spatial AI News of the Week – the weekly round up and dissection of hot news items from the co-hosts at SPAITIAL. Topics include: a new humanoid robot with subtle conversational abilities from Figure AI that combines multiple neural networks to understand its environment; a software engineer AI called Devin that can fix bugs, build websites, and perform other coding tasks across technologies; a handheld CNC machine called Origin fo...
How do you make Spatial AI more accessible to everyone without needing to learn coding from scratch? Topics include the potential for natural language programming interfaces, the role of low/no code tools, whether coding will still be necessary, and how to design interfaces that allow non-experts to create things with Spatial AI.

Interview with Dr Scott Pezanowski, focusing on Scott's background and experience in geospatial analysis, machine learning, and public health. We discuss Scott's past projects relating to disease prediction and control, the integration of geospatial data and AI for predictive modeling - and future directions for 'geo-AI'.

This week, we talk about the differences between the range of large/massive/general AI models - versus localising an AI to a language, a nation, a culture, a team - and finally - a person... you! How might that work? When will we see these models emerge? And when can I go on a date with my AI?
