• The Man Behind the Mic.

  In this special summer episode, we do something a bit different. Our usal host Ather Gattami steps into the guest seat and is interviewed by close friend; Joseph Michael, Venture Partnerships at Google. Ather shares his journey from PhD researcher to leading Sweden’s top AI podcast. He reflects on AI’s evolution, the shift from theory to compute-driven progress, and why reasoning and real-world learning are the next big steps. Ather urges everyone to embrace AI tools or risk falling behind and shares his excitement about trends like agentic AI - while reaffirming that his true passion lies in doing AI, not just talking about it.  Happy Summer!

• AI-Podden News - June (with Anders Arpteg)

  In this episode, Ather Gattami and one of our favourite guests; Anders Arpteg, Head of AI and Data at GlobalConnect, explore Meta’s shifting AI strategy, including its investment in Scale AI amid doubts about LeCun’s JEPA model and LLaMA 4 performance. They compare Tesla’s vision-based Robotaxi rollout to Waymo’s sensor-heavy approach, highlighting Tesla’s edge in scalability and real-world data. They also dive into Apple’s “Illusion of Thinking” paper, questioning whether today’s LLMs genuinely reason or simply excel at recall, and discuss the need for memory, planning, and architectural breakthroughs to push AI beyond current limits.

• How Nordic Companies Are (and Aren’t) Using AI

  In this week's episode, special guest; Eva Fors, Managing Director at Google Cloud Nordics returns to the podcast. Eva and our host, Ather Gattami look at how companies in the region are shifting from AI pilots to real deployments, with leaders like Klarna, EasyPark, and Bonnier News using generative AI in areas like customer engagement, M&A, and personalization. While adoption is growing, Eva notes traditional industries are slowed by governance and execution gaps rather than tech limitations. She emphasizes the importance of treating data as a key asset and sees major potential for AI in public sector services, finance, and backend operations - especially as agent-based systems become more common.
