单集简介 ...

The author and broadcaster Paul Morland is one of the UK’s leading thinkers on demographics – the study of population and its characteristics. Morland has been an associate research fellow at Birkbeck, University of London, and is a senior member at St Antony's College, Oxford. He last joined Intelligence Squared in 2022 and now returns to discuss his new book, No One Left. As that title suggests, Morland says the world is facing something of a crisis, with various nations facing population decline which could lead to consequences that range from labour shortages to ballooning debt. Joining him to discuss the issue is Eir Nolsøe, senior economics reporter at the Telegraph. We are sponsored by Indeed. Go to Indeed.com/IS for £100 sponsored credit.

  • AI might be the most important new computer technology ever.

  • It's storming every industry and literally billions of dollars are being invested.

  • So buckle up.

  • The problem is that AI needs a lot of speed and processing power.

  • So how do you compete without cost?

  • Spiraling out of control, it's time to upgrade to the next generation of the cloud.

  • Oracle cloud infrastructure, or OCI.

  • OCI is a single platform for your infrastructure, database, application development, and AI needs.

  • OCI has four to eight times the bandwidth of other clouds, offers one consistent price instead of variable regional pricing, and of course, nobody does data better than Oracle.

  • So now you can train your AI models at twice the speed and less than half the cost of other clouds.

  • If you want to do more and spend less like Uber eight x eight and databricks mosaic, take a free test drive of OCI at Oracle.

  • That's Oracle.com squared.
