LastPass CEO: If the Browser is AI's New Interface, What Does it Mean for Security?
Tech Talks Daily
Is the browser quietly becoming the most powerful and dangerous interface in modern work? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sat down with Karim Toubba, CEO of LastPass, to unpack a shift that many people feel every day but rarely stop to question. The browser is no longer just a window to the internet. It has become the place where work happens, where SaaS lives, and increasingly, where humans and AI agents meet data, credentials, and decisions. From AI-native browsers to prompt-based navigation and headless agents acting on our behalf, the way we access information is changing fast, and...

Harness And The AI Velocity Paradox Slowing Software Delivery
Tech Talks Daily
What really happens when AI helps teams write code faster, but everything else in the delivery process starts to slow down? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined once again by returning guest and friend of the show, Martin Reynolds, Field CTO at Harness. It has been two years since we last spoke, and a lot has changed since then. Martin has relocated from London to North Carolina, gaining back hours of his working week. Still, the bigger shift has been in how AI is reshaping software delivery inside modern enterprises. Our conversation centers on what Martin calls the AI velocity...

FreedomPay on The $44.4 Billion Payment Risk Facing Retail And Hospitality
Tech Talks Daily
What really happens to a business when payments stop working, even for a few minutes? I recorded this episode live at Dynatrace Perform in Las Vegas, inside the Venetian, surrounded by engineers, operators, and business leaders all wrestling with the same uncomfortable reality. Payment outages are no longer rare edge cases. They are becoming a routine operational risk, and the cost is far higher than many organizations realize. To unpack that shift, I sat down with Victoria Ruffo, Software Engineering Team Lead at FreedomPay, for a grounded and practical conversation about resilience,...

What Bubble Learned About Responsibility in AI-built Apps
Tech Talks Daily
In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Josh Haas, co-founder and co-CEO of Bubble, to unpack why the next phase of software creation is already taking shape. We talk about how the early excitement around AI-powered code generation delivered fast demos and instant gratification, but often fell apart when teams tried to turn those experiments into durable products that could grow with a business. Josh takes us back to Bubble’s origins in 2012, long before AI hype cycles and trend-driven development. At the time, the idea was simple but ambitious: give more people the ability to...

Cloudinary and the Business Case for Developer-Led Product Growth
Tech Talks Daily
How do you turn a developer-first product into a growth engine without losing trust, clarity, or focus along the way? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Sanjay Sarathy, VP of Developer Experience and Self Service at Cloudinary, for a grounded and thoughtful conversation about product-led growth when developers sit at the center of the story. Sanjay operates at a rare intersection. He leads Cloudinary’s high-volume self-service motion while also caring for the developer community that fuels adoption, advocacy, and long-term loyalty. That dual perspective, part business, part...

Syntax - From AI First Thinking To Data First Reality
Tech Talks Daily
What happens when the rush toward AI collides with the messy reality of enterprise data that was never designed for it? That is exactly where this episode with Kevin Dattolico from Syntax begins. Before we even hit record, we were swapping stories about music, travel, and a certain farewell concert that set the tone for a conversation that was both grounded and unexpectedly human. But once we got going, the discussion quickly shifted to one of the biggest blind spots I keep hearing about at tech conferences around the world. AI ambition is running far ahead of data readiness. Kevin leads...

Neurosymbolic AI And Why Reasoning Matters More Than Scale
Tech Talks Daily
Why do today’s most powerful AI systems still struggle to explain their decisions, repeat the same mistakes, and undermine trust at the very moment we are asking them to take on more responsibility? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Artur d'Avila Garcez, Professor of Computer Science at City St George's University of London, and one of the early pioneers of neurosymbolic AI. Our conversation cuts through the noise around ever-larger language models and focuses on a deeper question many leaders are now grappling with. If scale alone cannot deliver reliability,...

Why Stability Is Emerging As A New Performance Signal In Healthcare Tech
Tech Talks Daily
Why does healthcare keep investing in new technology while so many clinicians feel buried under paperwork and admin work that has nothing to do with patient care? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Dr. Rihan Javid, psychiatrist, former attorney, and co-founder and president of Edge. Our conversation cuts straight into an issue that rarely gets the attention it deserves, the quiet toll that administrative overload takes on doctors, care teams, and ultimately patients. Nearly half of physicians now link burnout to paperwork rather than clinical work, and Rihan explains why this...

Nyobolt And The Power Bottleneck Inside Modern AI Infrastructure
Tech Talks Daily
What happens when power, rather than compute, becomes the limiting factor for AI, robotics, and industrial automation? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I’m joined by Ramesh Narasimhan from Nyobolt to unpack a challenge that is quietly reshaping modern infrastructure. As AI training and inference workloads grow more dynamic, power demand is no longer predictable or steady. It can spike and drop in milliseconds, creating stress on systems that were never designed for this level of volatility. We talk about why data center operators, automation leaders, and industrial firms are being forced...
info_outlineFrom phone screens to semiconductors, military defense capabilities, and self-driving cars, a diamond can be applied to a number of different technologies to make them operate more efficiently. Diamond is stronger and harder than industry standard smart screen glass and runs much cooler than silicon, the traditional material used for semiconductors. Currently, companies like Lockheed Martin are using diamonds to enhance the survivability of fighter jets and drones.
Formed in early 2013, AKHAN Semiconductor, Inc. (AKHAN SEMI) is the global leader in diamond semiconductor technology. The primary aim of AKHAN SEMI is the development and manufacture of next-generation Nanocrystalline (NCD) based materials & devices.
The company's comprehensive Miraj Diamond™ platform is at the center of AKHAN's ability to manufacture next-generation diamond semiconductor technology. The platform enables the fabrication of complex devices such as high speed/power transistors, RF, and microwave electronics.
Adam Khan, CEO, and Founder of AKHAN Semiconductor, talks about how diamonds are grown, what differentiates them from jewelry, and how they are planning to use diamonds in the next generation of technology.
Adam has authored several patents and technical publications and is also a frequent speaker on Diamond Semiconductor & Clean Technology. As a result of his award-winning research, which he began as an electrical engineering student at age 19, Adam is the inventor of the Miraj Diamond® Platform.
Adam has also served as a speaker and expert witness to a variety of Federal bodies, including the U.S. House Space, Science, & Technology Committee, and the U.S. Department of Energy. He has been everything from a CleanTech Open Midwest Innovation Summit winner, a Forbes 30 Under 30, to a Modern-Day Nikola Tesla in the International Documentary Film' Tesla's Children' (2016).
