The f(x) = e^x | Digitally Savvy Politicians and Liquid Neural Networks
Good Day! This is my weekly newsletter, with a dose of insights into the future. The topic of this newsletter is the exponential times we live in, hence the title of f(x) = e^x, which is the (natural) exponential function.
Recently, I launched my new concept The Digital Speaker and you can now book me as an avatar or hologram. Also, my tech trend prediction for 2021 is out, read it here!
Digitally Savvy Politicians and Liquid Neural Networks
My latest episode:
In the 10th episode of The Tech Journal, The Digital Speaker takes a look at a new breed of digitally savvy politicians emerging from the ashes of our democracy.
Will having a Twitch Streamer President or an Instagram Story Prime Minister make a difference, or is it more of the same?
After, I will be moving away from digital theory and exploring Liquid Neural Networks; what they are and how this type of AI is making big waves. This flexible neural network reportedly adapts and changes to its conditions.
So, get comfortable, sit back, and let us start speaking digital. You can watch it on YouTube, Vimeo, listen to it as a podcast or read the transcript on my website.
Three Useful Nuggets of Information
My weekly tips from around the web to get you thinking.

2. Will the French be the first to master 1000 qubits?
The French startup Pascal is preparing to compete with the likes of Google and IBM as they just promised to have a 1,000-qubit quantum processor ready by 2023, bringing the supercomputer of tomorrow to Europe. (Sifted)
3. The AI hall of shame.
The AI Incident Database launched in late 2020 now contains 1200 incidents, including a robot that fall into a fountain or a refereeโs bald head mistaken for a football by an AI. (Wired)
