I thought 128GB of RAM and 1TB of storage was a lot. Then I downloaded my first few AI models, and very quickly realised I wanted more.

That experience kept coming back to me while recording a new podcast series with Micron Technology Singapore.

### Why memory and storage matter

It's hardly my first podcast, but working with the team on this series was a fresh and eye-opening journey all the same. As always, I learned a lot from the various discussions along the way.

Here's what I've recorded.

### Where AI gets real

AI is no longer just happening in the data centre. In this episode, I look at how it's showing up in factories, in cars, and in the devices we use every day, and why memory and storage matter in all of it.

### Where AI is actually built

AI transformation isn't just about technology. It's about people, too. Specifically, how do we redesign work to empower the workforce, and how do we figure out where humans and AI work best together?

### AI for impact

No one builds the AI future alone. This conversation asks how government, industry, academia and communities are coming together to turn AI innovation into a real-world difference.

Episode 1 arrives next week, and a quick preview of the series is already out.

In the meantime, consider the machine you're reading this on. How much RAM and storage does it have? And more to the point, is it enough?
