Explore how synthetic sound data is reshaping robotics, manufacturing, and the future of industrial AI. Hear the next frontier.

Thanks for listening. We welcome suggestions for topics, criticism and a few stars on Apple, Spotify and Co.

We thank our partner SIEMENS

In this episode, we dive into why sound is the next big leap for AI in industry. I share insights from recent events, including the SPS exhibition and Europe's AI scene, and discuss why edge AI is outpacing the cloud on the shop floor. Then, I sit down with Dr. Finnur Pind from Treble Technologies to explore how synthetic sound data is powering smarter machines—from voice recognition in cars to giving robots a sense of hearing.

You'll hear how simulating sound opens up new possibilities for robotics and spatial awareness, and why industries are racing to make AI models that can truly listen. We also touch on the unique AI startup scene in Reykjavik, the challenges of accurate sound modeling, and what the future holds for audio-driven innovation. Join us to discover why the future of industrial AI might just depend on what machines can hear.
