Technology talk on ABC Radio

Artificial Intelligence continues to revolutionise our lives. Predictions from experts state that AI will likely automate or transform 50% to 60% of jobs. 

How long until it takes over our lives or jobs completely? 

Also self-driving trucks on the road and we bid farewell to Skype.

Peter Marks, a software developer and technology commentator from Access Informatics, joined Philip Clark on Nightlife to discuss the latest news in technology.

AI in FreeDV presentation at the Bendigo Technology Festival

The Bendigo Amateur Radio and Electronics club today held their first Bendigo Technology Festival. It was an ambitious affair with information and sales tables and a series of technology talks.

The Macedon Ranges Amateur Radio Club had a table with information for potential new members. 

ALARA, WIA and many others had tables and there was quite a bit of gear for sale at excellent prices.

I presented a talk on how AI is being used in the new versions of FreeDV.

Congratulations to the organisers and I hope they do it again.
