When we at Financial Sense started our FS Insider podcast a few years back, many listeners wrote in saying, "Hey, we want to hear more shows on technology." We took that feedback to heart and, in addition to our usual coverage of the financial markets and the economy, have now done around 50 different shows covering everything from quantum computing to driverless cars to cyberwarfare.
Since we've now done so many podcasts on a wide range of topics, here is a list of our favorites, which we've broken into the following 15 categories (arranged in alphabetical order below):
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning | Bitcoin, Cryptocurrencies, and Blockchain Tech | Entrepreneurial Tech |
Augmented Reality | Complexity Theory and Complex Adaptive Systems | High Frequency Trading |
Automation, Big Data, and Robotics | Cybersecurity, Cyberwarfare, and Surveillance | Quantum Computing |
Biometrics | Driverless Cars | Synchronization |
Biotech and the Future of Medicine | Energy (Solar, Lithium, and Batteries) | Technological Revolutions and the Economy |
