Nothing New Under the Sun—So What’s New ...

LEGAL TALK NETWORK
About this episode

Apple, Microsoft, Google, and Amazon are busily announcing their latest products, and Dennis and Tom are a little underwhelmed. But, rather than ignoring the new stuff altogether, the guys lean into their tech-infused ennui and ponder the reasons behind their “meh” responses. They discuss the latest products from Big Tech, talk about product improvements, and give thoughts on how AI is continuing to influence just about everything in tech these days. 

Later, Dennis and Tom examine several concerning developments at the intersection of AI and cybersecurity. They shed light on the harmful impacts of AI manipulation and its effects on other areas of technology and cybercrime. 

As always, stay tuned for the parting shots, that one tip, website, or observation that you can use the second the podcast ends.
