Today we’ll be diving into the world of DeFi with Rashan Colbert, Head of Policy at dYdX, as he shares his background working in policy and his vision for how crypto can be used as a powerful tool for financial inclusion. This week, episode 209 of the Tech Intersect™ Podcast is about how DeFi can revolutionize financial inclusion.

If you ask someone if they want to use predictive coding they may decline, but if you ask them if they want an easy way to prioritize relevant documents they’ll likely say yes. Like most technological advancements, the misunderstanding of what it is and how it can be used discourages people from adopting it. Jim Sullivan joins me today to share how eDiscovery AI provides the solution to increase efficiency in legal research and case preparation. This week, episode 204 of the Tech Intersect™ Podcast is about using predictive coding to revolutionize legal research.
