AI-podden

In this May news episode, our host Ather Gattami sits with Anders Arpteg to discuss how the industry accelerating on several fronts at once: coding, agentic workflows, enterprise tooling and research capability. As Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, Mistral and others push new models and platforms, the competitive edge is shifting from raw model performance toward speed, integration, transparency and data sovereignty. At the same time, breakthroughs in mathematical proof, AI-assisted research and formal reasoning suggest the technology is beginning to move beyond pattern recognition toward genuinely novel insight and more autonomous problem-solving.

In this special episode of AI-Podden, our host Ather Gattami sits down with Rolf Njor Jensen, VP of Technology at Lunar to explore how AI is reshaping the future of banking.
From AI-powered support agents and smarter customer onboarding, to the rise of "invisible banking", we discuss how financial services could move beyond the banking app and become part of everyday digital experiences.
We also look at what it takes to use AI responsibly in one of the world's most regulated industries, including data governance, privacy, security, human oversight and the new identity models needed for agentic AI.

In this March news episode, our host Ather Gattami sits with Anders Arpteg to unpack a fast-moving period in AI, from NVIDIA GTC and the rise of agentic, always-on systems to the growing demand for inference, physical AI and autonomous driving. They argue that while the industry is moving quickly and companies are racing to build more proactive, capable systems, current models are still far weaker at reasoning and action-taking than the hype often suggests, something they link to the poor results on Arc AGI 3. The conversation also touches on shifting power dynamics between companies like Anthropic, OpenAI and Meta, before ending on a more forward-looking note with Semantic Tube Prediction, a research idea that could offer a more efficient path to reasoning in latent space rather than through token-by-token prediction.

In this February news update, our host Ather Gattami sits with Anders Arpteg, to recap the latest and most significant shifts in AI. On the menu; OpenAI's $100 billion funding round, intensifying competition from companies like Anthropic, Google, and xAI, and the growing geopolitical role of AI in defense and national security. They also explore the gap between rapid technological progress and slower real-world adoption, the evolving role of software engineers as AI automates more coding tasks, and Sweden's new AI strategy aimed at becoming a leading AI nation through stronger adoption and practical application of AI.
