About the Podcast
How have budget constraints changed IT investment plans? Is AI coming for your job? And how is AI helping prevent cyberattacks? These are some of the hot topics we’ll be discussing on Tech Talks, a podcast from CDW Canada.
This podcast focuses on technologies and trends that are causing disruptions in our industry. Join us as we engage with industry leaders in technical discussions around key innovations that are affecting all our lives in business, and in many cases our daily lives as well.
For instance, we have all seen the hype around generative AI and large language models. We will break down what GenAI is and what it is not, how we are seeing it used now as well as in the near future. We will also discuss the new cybersecurity landscape and how cybersecurity is both more at risk due to AI but also how AI can be used as a tool to combat that same risk.
