Somewhere on Earth: Where tech meets humanity.
























Definitely important to discuss, especially with people's concerns with AI and it's water consumption for content generation.
The team that bought you the excellent BBC Digital Planet (now no more) is back looking at the untold and unloved tech stories from around the world. The show delves deeper into tech for good and explores the impact of a lack of access to tech. A wealth of experience and knowledge, as well as some big names in tech, science and business, makes this show stand out from other tech podcasts. Entertaining and informative. Highly recommended.
