EP15: Apple Park, AI as Clay & Saying No (Hanley Leung)
From Yahoo Mail in the 90s to building EA's online games business out of Shanghai, to leading a prototyping team on Apple Vision Pro — Hanley Leung has worked through every major platform shift of the last 30 years. Now in Hong Kong running an AI startup and the Lunatechs community, he argues this AI cycle rhymes with the 90s internet but moves faster than mobile. Why he calls AI 'clay, not Lego', why ex-Apple founders frustrate VCs, why HTML now beats PowerPoint, and why focus — saying no to good ideas — is the real currency of the AI era.

EP14: Floppy Disks, Language Models & the I-Ching (Cantonese) (Dr. Bruce Cheung)
Dr. Bruce Cheung (張維) has been doing AI in Hong Kong since before most people had a computer. One of the first Computer Science graduates from HKU in 1985, he built statistical language models on floppy disks using LISP and Prolog — decades before anyone said 'LLM.' Now Head of the College of Life Sciences and Technology at HKU SPACE, he bridges AI with law and education, arguing that Hong Kong's universities have been quietly world-class in AI research since the 1980s while the public only noticed when ChatGPT arrived. Plus: why Manus costs too much, whether Gemini will ever serve Hong Kong, ADHD in the AI age, and Aug's theory that the I-Ching is the 'bones' for structured AI thinking — which Bruce agrees with.

EP13: Brain Mapping, Refugee Privacy & Cantonese Tones (Marcus Leiwe)
A neuroscience PhD who once mapped neonatal mouse brain wiring under a microscope, Marcus Leiwe now runs an AI consultancy in Hong Kong applying the same academic rigor to business problems. From building a private, on-device AI pipeline for Branches of Hope (so refugee records never touch the cloud) to a passion-project Cantonese tone visualizer that runs entirely in the browser, Marcus shows what AI looks like when 'move fast and break things' isn't an option. Plus: Air Canada's chatbot lawsuit, the Vedic 17 levels of consciousness, and why HK is misread as just fintech.
