Really enjoyed having this conversation with Beril on how AI can be used to help fight climate change, some philosophy on intelligence, the app she built to help farmers using space images from ESA & AR. Hope you enjoy!

Really loved having this conversation with Mustapha who is an AI wizard from Ghana and CTO of Okuafo Foundation where they're trying to develop a computer vision AI application for smartphones that could allow many VERY rural farmers of Ghana, and potentially Africa as a whole, diagnose diseases of their livestock, deal with the lack of available medical animal specialists in those regions, and, thus, do all the good things that come along with having happy farmers and healthy livestock in the communities. However, building something like this is hard, but making it easy-to-use for many farmers who can't even read in the regions is the whole task of its own. Hope you enjoy!

Loved loved loved chatting with Connor Shorten who is a PhD at Florida Atlantic University in AI and a real gangster when it comes to GANs and Deep Learning in general. Connor writes for Towards Data Science and creates his awesome videos explaining cutting edge Deep Learning papers on YouTube at his Henry AI Labs YouTube channel. We're gonna be diving deep into GANs, Conv Net Architectures, why Deep Learning on graphs is cool and the most exciting projects he does with AI. And you can give it a listen wherever you get your podcast by searching The AI Wizards Show and I'll also put some links below! Hope you enjoy! :)

Really loved having this conversation with Thomas Huybrechts! Thomas is an engineering PhD student at Antwerp University, Belgium. Aside from teaching students, he's also involved in the University's lab that develops autonomous vehicles, runs his own engineering club for the students, involved in a logistics-for-trucking-companies startup, researching worst-case execution time for time-sensible software and a lot more! Hope you enjoy!

Really enjoyed talking with my guy Stig Bosmans who's doing his PhD at University of Antwerp and really passionate about building and testing  Internet of Things applications and finding ways to make them decentralize and scale. We jump from real high-tech research papers on simulating IoT to Belgian beer and challenges of wife approval in the life on an engineer! Hope your enjoy!
