EPISODE 001

In this inaugural episode of The Heartful Technologist, CK reflects on the quiet power technologists hold to make a real difference in people’s lives. While digitizing old tapes for friends, he’s struck by how a simple skill—like cleaning up audio with AI tools—can seem like magic to those without that know-how.

If you recognize that difference, you’re part of a rare group that can bridge the gap between what is possible and what others might only dream could be true.

The challenge is for each of us to use our skills intentionally, even when the work feels routine or unremarkable. That “obvious” step you take could have deep meaning for someone else—especially when it helps preserve something precious, like a memory caught on a fading cassette tape.

If you have the ability to help through technology, do it—for the good of others and for the deeper human connection it brings.
