Listen to the latest episode of the Alumni Ventures' Tech Optimist podcast, where Mike Collins and Matt Caspari uncover three groundbreaking innovations set to revolutionize our approach to technology and energy. They begin with a breakthrough in battery technology for electric air travel, which, inspired by biological processes, has achieved a four-fold increase in the power-to-energy ratio necessary for sustainable flight. The discussion then transitions to the game-changing potential of Small Modular Reactors (SMRs), emphasizing their scalability and environmental benefits as a clean energy solution ideal for diverse applications, including remote areas. Finally, the episode explores OpenAI's ambitious roadmap towards artificial general intelligence, outlining the transformative steps that could redefine our societal landscape.
