Show Notes
In this episode of INNOV-8 Presents: Entrepreneurs in Tech, host Bob Shami sits down with Dr. Ewelina Kurtys, the visionary Founder & CEO of Ekai.io and Strategic Advisor to FinalSpark. With a PhD in Neuroscience, Dr. Kurtys is at the forefront of the next great leap in technology: Biocomputing.
As AI models like ChatGPT demand unprecedented levels of electricity and water for cooling, the tech world is facing a sustainability crisis. Dr. Kurtys discusses how FinalSpark is building "living computers" using biological neurons that are one million times more energy-efficient than traditional silicon chips. We dive into the "language of spikes," the transition from academia to tech entrepreneurship, and the philosophical questions surrounding machines built from living cells. Whether you're interested in the future of AGI or the mechanics of hybrid computing, this episode offers a fascinating glimpse into the biological future of artificial intelligence.
