Beyond the Screen: IRL Tech Talk is making waves this summer with fresh conversations that dive deep into the real-world impact of today’s most dynamic technologies, right as both industry and culture are at a critical crossroads. The event this year aligns with a broader surge of tech-centric gatherings such as the Digital Hollywood Summer Summit, running concurrently and exploring the future of entertainment, media, and technology. According to Digital Hollywood’s July 2025 agenda, there’s a heightened focus on topics like cinematic AI, virtual humans, and synthetic intelligence, all of which echo in Beyond the Screen’s programming—showing how tech from “behind the curtain” is shaping our daily realities.
What sets IRL Tech Talk apart is its emphasis on moving beyond abstract demos and hype, engaging with creators and industry insiders to translate emerging tech into tangible trends listeners can actually see taking shape. Recent sessions have given platforms to AI filmmakers like Kavan Cardoza, known for blending storytelling and generative algorithms, and industry visionaries such as Christina Lee Storm, who are at the frontier of immersive brand experiences and virtual production. This convergence of engineering, creativity, and practical ethics reflects a clear trend: the smartest minds aren’t just discussing what digital tools can do, but how they’re redefining the relationship between creators and audiences, privacy and performance, innovation and information integrity.
National conversations about tech policy and ethics have never been more urgent. TechIreland’s National AI Challenge captures this spirit of responsibility, as it recently launched its second annual hackathon to crowdsource AI solutions grounded in ethical principles and industrial impact. The challenge, which has already drawn hundreds of registrants and support from global players like Google and OpenAI, speaks to the need for hands-on, people-centered development that resonates strongly with the IRL Tech Talk ethos. According to the initiative's organizers, Ireland is working to take the lead in responsible AI adoption, showing that the conversation is truly global, and underscoring the relevance of Beyond the Screen’s commitment to real-world tech dialogue.
In education and the home, tech’s real-world footprint is more visible than ever, and Beyond the Screen taps into this with programming that mirrors hot-button issues from podcasts like Screenagers. Recent discussions highlighted how phone and smartwatch bans in schools are reshaping learning and personal development, and explored deeper concerns like cyberbullying, privacy, and the practical challenges of setting digital boundaries. These actionable insights help parents, educators, and families navigate the changing digital landscape, bridging the gap between academic research, lived experience, and proactive solutions.
The energy in the tech community this month is palpable, with high-profile events forecasted on both coasts and throughout Europe. The TechBeat Conference in East Bay is set to explore responsible AI, feedback loops, and the future of voice technology, while events in New York are convening creative technologists and thought leaders to imagine bold new intersections of human experience and machine intelligence. These developments drive home the core message of IRL Tech Talk: the future isn’t just online—it’s being shaped by hands-on experimentation, open debate, and urgent questions about how society can best balance opportunity with oversight.
As Beyond the Screen: IRL Tech Talk continues, expect more direct access to those creating, critiquing, and regulating the technologies remaking work, play, and community itself. Whether you’re a developer, an artist, or a parent figuring out new rules of engagement, this is your invitation to step off the timeline and into the real conversations shaping tomorrow’s world.
