Podcast Overview
<p>The Human Machine podcast looks at the ever-increasing interplay between humans and machines and is made in collaboration with global C-suite leaders who are operating at the cutting edge of technology, product, entrepreneurship, design and academia. The podcast will bring you not just interviews with top experts, but their wisdom on what lessons they’ve learned from the past, how they operate today and what they anticipate the future will look like. The leaders you will hear from come from industries that are being rapidly disrupted and accelerated by technological advances like artificial intelligence, cloud computing and where change for us as humans is imperative – we either get involved or get left behind. I ask them about their failures, how they make better decisions today and how we can all become more consciously competent in this accelerated age. The show is hosted by Christopher Lomas.

17. Claude Cowork - AI Agents Working For You (feat. Barbara Johnson, COO, Kortical)
<p>Can anyone get AI Agents working for them? In this episode, we explore the shift from AI as a corporate mandate to AI as a personal utility. While much of the discussion around artificial intelligence focuses on high-level strategy, the real revolution happens when individuals use it to solve their own "boring" problems, like data extraction, research automation, and the endless cycle of copy-pasting. Our guest is Barbara Johnson, the Chief Operating Officer and non-technical Co-Founder of the award-winning Auto ML company Kortical. With a background in commerce and marketing rather than engineering, Babs shares her firsthand experience of "practicing what she preaches" by automating her own professional and personal worlds.</p><br><p>Show links:</p><ol><li>Barb's <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/posts/barbara-johnson01_hate-admin-me-too-first-of-a-series-of-ugcPost-7452669477772668928-UmwO?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAABIGyMBUvpaSPJapfzEBMuDqI0RPtavXMQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Linkedin video post</a> about Claude CoWork</li><li>Getting started with Claude: <a href="https://claude101.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u>Step-by-step guides</u></a> (thank you Ruben Hassid)</li><li>Anthropic's "<a href="https://support.claude.com/en/articles/13345190-get-started-with-claude-cowork" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Get started with Claude Cowork</a>" guide</li><li><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/barbara-johnson01/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Barbara Johnson on Linkedin</a></li><li><a href="https://kortical.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Kortical website</a></li></ol><p><br></p><p><strong>Key topics discussed in this episode:</strong></p><ul><li><strong>The "Aha!"

The Orbital Pivot – Moving the Cloud to Deep Space
<p>The "Cloud" is finally leaving the ground. In this episode of The Human Machine, Christopher Lomas explores why the data center industry has hit a terrestrial wall and why the vacuum of space is the inevitable next frontier for AI. What could this shift mean for you and your customer or employee experience? As of April 2026, the environmental and energy costs of AI are staggering: a single 40-megawatt data center consumes over 1 million tons of fresh water annually. To escape this "energy crunch," visionaries like Philip Johnston (CEO, Starcloud) and Elon Musk (CEO, SpaceX) are racing to build orbital regions where solar energy is 36% more intense and cooling is "free" via the blackness of the void.</p><br><p><strong>Highlights of this episode:</strong></p><ul><li>The Physics of the Void: How engineers solve the paradox of "Passive Radiative Cooling" and the "Radiation Tax" of cosmic rays.</li><li>The Billion-Dollar Race: Why Starcloud became the fastest unicorn in history and how SpaceX plans to deploy 100 gigawatts of orbital capacity.</li><li>Geopolitics in Orbit: The rise of China’s "Thousand Sails" constellation and the shift toward "Space based AI data centers" as the ultimate data haven.</li><li>The "Mean Physics" of Space: Navigating the risks of hardware failure and the 40% increase in U.S. Space Force budgets to protect these new assets.</li></ul><p><br></p><p>The backbone of the global economy is moving from under the Atlantic to Low Earth Orbit.

Series 3 Introduction: A new 'Splinternet' of Emerging Tech
Series 3 Introduction and Overview: The digital age is over; the material age has begun. In Series 3 of The Human Machine podcast, Christopher Lomas goes "deep into the stack" to explore the fundamentals defining the new world order. From the rise of Silicon Fortresses, Space Data Centers and AI-native ghost cities to the high-stakes collision of biology and silicon, we'll examine how the geography of power is being redrawn. As the world splits into distinct approaches to AI, one question remains: In a "Splinternet" of competing values, whose reality will you plug into?<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
