Today we’re discussing synthetic data - that is, data trained by AI and computer simulations, rather than gathered from the real world.Now, generating theoretical data is nothing new - we’ve been taking small samples of things and extrapolating from it for decades. However, with the advent of AI we don’t necessarily just need to extrapolate. We can generate completely new, close-to-real data using AI.But why? And why does it matter? To explain we’re joined by Chief Technology Officer for AI at Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Matt Armstrong-BarnesThis is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.

In this episode we are looking at how the public sector is embracing the hybrid cloud model and what steps need to be taken to be certain our information, as members of the public, is kept safe. It’s a big issue. In 2021 and 2022 the largest percentage of cyber threats and attacks were reported by governments and the public sector, according to the European Parliament. So, what operational security strategies are being tailored for public sector needs? How does regulation differ between the public and private sector when it comes to hybrid cloud security? And how can leaders in health, education, the military, public transport and law enforcement ensure that adopting a hybrid cloud model is a secure option?

Despite a huge boom in technological innovation around the world and an expanding tech industry, the number of graduates who have come from STEM subjects remains relatively low. Just over a quarter of university graduates in the UK have studied a STEM course, and in the US it’s less than 1-in-5. Within that, there is still a huge disparity in gender after secondary school compulsory education. In this episode we’ll be looking at how we can engage the next, and future generations in science and technology-led professions, and the importance of role models in showing what can be achieved by a career in STEM, with former NASA rocket scientist, STEM ambassador, entrepreneur and confirmed future astronaut, Aisha Bowe.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

The term “open source” is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. It originally started out as a rebellious gesture to allow everybody access to programmes and ideas. So how did something that began as a movement against big corporations grow into one that has been adopted by Fortune 500 companies?In this episode we’ll be looking at where open source technology sits as a functioning tool in the age of VR and AR, and if we're going to see open source software being coded by open platform AI, with Distinguished Technologist for Open Platform at Hewlett Packard Enterprise, Jean-Marie Verdun.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

Convergence is an idea that’s been bubbling under the surface of IT operations for some time. The concept involves bringing Dev Ops, IT ops and SRE under one roof, eliminating silos of expertise and data and opening up an organization’s IT infrastructure for the benefit of the whole group.It could be a game changer for efficiency, with some estimates suggesting 40% savings on IT infrastructure by reducing bottlenecks and duplicated workloads. But the technology to achieve convergence is only just becoming available… Why, and what does it mean?Here to explain is Varma Kunaparaju, Co-Founder and CEO at OpsRamp, an IT Operations management as-a-service platform that was recently acquired by Hewlett Packard Enterprise.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

There’s an acute shortage of candidates for tech jobs – in fact, research suggests tens of millions of potential roles are going unfilled. In a poll with global technology chiefs conducted by MIT’s ‘Technology Review’, a majority found that they weren’t getting enough candidates for roles, and those who did apply lacked necessary skills. Clearly, there’s a problem here. So what can tech companies do to bring more talent through the door? Could building a baseline of investment in new, or even unqualified, talent be a solution?Joining us today is Maninder Randhawa, Early Careers Leader for Hewlett Packard Enterprise in the UKIMEA region, to find out if apprenticeships could be the answer.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

In the world of cyber security, there are occasional events which bring together people from all sides of the spectrum. One of those events is the Black Hat Briefings. In their own words, “a series of highly technical information security conferences that bring together thought leaders from all facets of the infosec world – from the corporate and government sectors to academic and even underground researchers.”Back in August Las Vegas hosted the 26th American Black Hat Conference, and today’s guest was there. Jaye Tillson is a field Chief Technology Officer at Axis Security, who have recently been acquired as part of HPE Aruba Networking.We’ll be finding out what goes on at these events, the hot topics under discussion, and whether they are as clandestine as they sound… Or not.We'd love to hear your one-minute review of books which have changed your year!

Alongside tackling global warming, conservation and protecting the diversity of our natural world is a global priority. AI plays a huge role, from analysing satellite imagery of reforestation efforts to identifying wildlife from acoustic scanners or trip cameras. However, there’s an issue in these biomes where many people live - these efforts are taking place without their permission. Privacy, data protection and individual rights can potentially be sidelined in the quest for a tech-driven solution to a global problem.Joining us today is Joycelyn Longdon. She’s a PhD Student in the Department of Computer Science at Cambridge University. Her research is around looking at the technical, AI-based solutions to environmental protection, and respect local populations, whilst trying to protect our natural habitats. She also runs Climate in Colour, an organisation dedicated to making conversations around climate more diverse and accessible.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

Golf is undeniably one of the most challenging sports in the world from a logistical and operational standpoint. Especially when it comes to connecting the hundreds or thousands of smart devices dotted around them during major tournaments.Courses are huge areas, several kilometers square. They have dozens of acres of maintained grass, geographical challenges, roads, trees, and often other services on or near them that need to be skirted around or crossed. They are open to the elements. In short, providing connectivity is a huge challenge. That's the challenge for our guest this week, Chief Technology Officer for the European Tour Group and Ryder Cup Europe, Michael Cole. We'll be talking about creating 21st-century connected ecosystems in the most extreme environments, as well as the future of golf as a 'smart' sport.This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise.

Formula E is one of the most exciting motor racing championships in the world. The all-electric series takes place across 16 races and features 11 teams racing at up to 200mph on urban, city-centre circuits. The catch? It’s a ‘spec’ series, which means the teams all race essentially identical cars. In this episode, we travelled to the London E-Prix where we caught up with Maserati MSG driver Edo Mortara and team principal James Rossiter to talk about competitive advantage, and how to win against a level playing field.We'd love to hear your one minute review of books which have changed your year!

Right now, we need a lot more energy. In 2023, on average we use 60 kilowatt hours of electrical energy, each, per day. That's enough to boil approximately 600 litres of water. Which is a lot, especially when you consider that several billion of us are using a lot less than that. Demand is growing, too, by 3-5% globally every year. The IT industry is a major contributor to this, using around 6% of the world's electricity. So how can we make more, and use less? That’s the topic of a two-part special of our sister podcast, Technology Untangled. This week, we’re taking a look at some of the key findings from these special investigations in something of a highlights reel.We'd love to hear your one minute review of books which have changed your year!

The metaverse is a misunderstood phenomenon. Since becoming championed by Mark Zuckerberg in 2021, it’s become synonymous with Augmented and Virtual reality – a mythical second world where we’ll all have jobs, homes, and property in addition to our daily, ‘real’ lives. That dream of the metaverse hasn’t quite taken off, but that doesn’t mean the concept is dead. In fact, the idea of a digital world augmenting our own is growing fast, and attracting a huge amount of interest and resources. It’s also proving invaluable in large-scale prototyping and design. One of the companies looking seriously into the growth of the metaverse is Nokia, and their Head of Trend and Innovation Scouting, Leslie Shannon, is today’s guest.We'd love to hear your one minute review of books which have changed your year!
