Beyond the Screen: IRL Tech Talk is where technology moves off the timeline and into the tangible, meeting listeners at the intersection of cutting-edge innovation and everyday life. As businesses and consumers grapple with dazzling advances in AI, robotics, and digital culture, the conversation around technology in 2025 is evolving in real time and real space.
This summer, the IRL—In Real Life—tech surge is unmistakable. From packed auditoriums in Dublin and Geneva to buzzing cafés turned pop-up brainstorm labs, in-person events are back at full force. Just this past May, the Dublin Tech Summit brought together over 8,000 tech leaders, buyers, and innovators at the Royal Dublin Society, exploring everything from AI breakthroughs and cybersecurity to sustainable tech. The event’s energy underscored how vital face-to-face dialogue is while the world navigates everything from the ethics of generative AI to tangible solutions in digital health and smart cities, as highlighted by conference organizers and attendee analysts at Vendelux.
Meanwhile, the AI for Good Global Summit this July in Geneva gathered researchers and policymakers aiming to make artificial intelligence not just powerful, but trustworthy and ethical. The consensus? Listeners heard that while AI is revolutionizing the workplace, its true value is only unlocked when people—coders, strategists, and users—can exchange perspectives IRL. This human grounding is echoed in ongoing conferences worldwide throughout 2025, fueling a renewed appetite for expert-led workshops and flash talks exploring soon-to-be-essential skills, from robotics to big data analysis.
The tech sector, however, is not immune to turbulence. According to TechCrunch, 2025 has already seen more than 22,000 tech jobs cut, in a wave that has caused both anxiety and urgency. Innovators at events like TechCrunch Disrupt urge listeners to wrestle honestly with this paradox: automation brings efficiencies and new horizons, but also has a very human cost. Across workshops and panels, the question pulsing beneath the demos is how to keep people—not just products—at the center of progress.
Popular podcasts such as Scrolling 2 Death and broadcasts by Tech Radio Ireland crack open these urgent conversations for a wide audience. This month, Nicki Petrossi’s podcast took on the realities of growing up with screens, sparking debate about wellness in a hyper-connected world and pushing for more family tech boundaries. At the same time, experts like Kateryna Portmann and Nazrin Aliyeva are going deep on the latest in robotics, highlighting how IRL experimentation is racing far ahead of what virtual previews alone can predict.
While industry summits in major cities make headlines, it’s the curated community events and local meetups—highlighted by creative collectives like Hyperactive—that illustrate just how hungry people are for real-world connection. Even as brands vie for digital dominance, a question echoes across 2025: Where should you show up in real life?
The result is an ecosystem in flux, with tech talk now happening at the intersection of device and discussion, platform and personal experience. The next generation of innovation is not just screen-based, but lived and layered into every environment—from hackathons in Poland to data summits in Seattle and grassroots events across Africa and Asia.
Listeners tuning in to Beyond the Screen: IRL Tech Talk this week are witnessing history in the making. Whether you’re a developer, strategist, or simply someone who wonders what’s next for humanity in a world accelerating towards new digital frontiers, the conversation is no longer just online.
