The Brave Technologist explores how emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and Web3 are influencing our lives, our choices, and our collective future. Unlike many tech podcasts that focus on hype and disruption, this show puts users at the center of the conversation. Each episode features thoughtful discussions with technologists working to ensure that innovation serves the public interest. How are these tools impacting users? And how can we ensure that technology is developed with transparency, accountability, and the public good in mind? We're going deep with founders, builders, policy makers and researchers to explore the worlds of privacy, AI, crypto, digital rights, algorithmic accountability, and everywhere else where cutting edge technology impacts our daily lives.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-23T02:20:25.024347+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-brave-technologist-2135907"},"episode":{"title":"How to Know When Personalization Becomes Creepy (AI Summit LDN)","slug":"how-to-know-when-personalization-becomes-creepy-ai-summit-ldn","published_at":"2026-07-22T12:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-brave-technologist-2135907/how-to-know-when-personalization-becomes-creepy-ai-summit-ldn","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-brave-technologist-2135907","url":"https://thebravemarketer.libsyn.com/how-to-know-when-personalization-becomes-creepy-ai-summit-ldn","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/thebravemarketer/Dr_Mohsen_Ghasempour.mp4?dest-id=2705240","summary":"Dr. Mohsen Ghasempour, Chief AI Officer at Kingfisher, unpacks why the most dangerous thing a company can do with customer data is use all of it.
