The Breakroom: AI & Τεχνολογία πέρα από τους τίτλους

,

Το The Breakroom είναι μια χαλαρή, χωρίς φίλτρα συζήτηση για όσα πραγματικά συμβαίνουν στον κόσμο της τεχνολογίας και του AI. Η Έλενα και ο Μιχάλης σχολιάζουν με χιούμορ, σκεπτικισμό και χωρίς φίλτρα τις σημαντικότερες εξελίξεις για την τεχνολογία, το AI και τις startups από την Silicon Valley μέχρι την Ευρώπη, την Κύπρο και την Ελλάδα. Κουτσομπολεύουν τα δράματα της βιομηχανίας, τρολάρουν τους δισεκατομμυριούχους της Silicon Valley, αμφισβητούν το hype και γκρινιάζουν (με αγάπη) για τα προϊόντα και τις πλατφόρμες που χρησιμοποιούμε καθημερινά. Είναι μια ειλικρινής και μερικές φορές χαοτική κουβέντα όπως ένα πραγματικό διάλειμμα για καφέ με ανθρώπους που ζουν και αναπνέουν την τεχνολογία.
