About this episode
In this week's episode, I talk to co-founder Piers Curran about the strategy behind Apple's acquisition of Credit Kudos, which uses machine learning to create an alternative to traditional credit scores. Beyond the technology, we look at how the government shares your personal data and discuss the repercussions of the ever-growing 'buy now, pay later' culture.
This week also saw Elon Musk open the new Giga Berlin plant in Grünheide but can Tesla remain ahead of the pack? we run the numbers.
Do you ever think your phone can read your mind?! Snap Inc.'s latest acquisition of NextMind might make that possible sooner than you think!
