The Tech Tribune staff has compiled a list of the best new tech podcasts released in the last week (as of the time of writing):



“Insights from Deaf and autistic communities could finally make office spaces better for everyone.”



“The concept of literate programming, or the idea of programming in a document, was first introduced in 1984 by Donald Knuth. And as of today, notebooks are now the defacto tool for doing data science work. So as the data tooling space continues to evolve at breakneck speed, what are the possible directions the data science notebook can take?

In this episode of DataFramed, we talk with Dr. Jodie Burchell, Data Science Developer Advocate at JetBrains, to find out how data science notebooks evolved into what they are today, what her predictions are for the future of notebooks and data science, and how generative AI will impact data teams going forward.”



“The once high-flying Groupon is mounting a comeback under a new interim CEO. Plus: Pioneering women across the world are making gains — there just aren’t enough of them being invited to the table. Also, a quick-hitting news rundown to start your week.”



“In this episode, I have the privilege of interviewing Julie Godin, the Co-Chair of the Board and Executive Vice-President of Strategic Planning and Corporate Development at CGI – a renowned global IT and business consulting services firm with a workforce of over 90,000 team members.

In order to understand this latest wave of AI, it is important to know how it works and why this moment is different from developments in the past.
