Join us as Dr. Mohammad Sherafatmand from Hydroleap discusses innovative solutions to Malaysia's critical water challenges. With the nation's ageing infrastructure and rising water demand set to increase by over 100% by 2050, the need for sustainable solutions is more urgent than ever.



Dr. Sherafatmand explains how his company's proprietary electrochemical engineering technology offers an environmentally friendly and cost-effective way to treat wastewater, which could play a crucial role in addressing Malaysia's water scarcity issues.



We also explore successful models from Singapore, like the NEWater project, and discuss how Malaysia could adapt these practices to meet its unique water needs.

Pioneering Solutions for Malaysia's Water Crisis

Rich and Matt dive into the complex intersection of technology, security, and information warfare. Starting with TikTok's recent controversies and the US government's push to force its sale, the discussion explores the challenges of regulating social media platforms amidst geopolitical tensions.



Moving to the battle against misinformation, an MIT study is using AI chatbots to counter conspiracy theories through factual, non-judgmental conversations - potentially reshaping deeply held beliefs. However, concerns arise about the potential misuse of AI models to spread tailored disinformation.



The pair also covers a novel hacking technique that exploits processor speed fluctuations to extract sensitive data from air-gapped systems, highlighting the ever-evolving cat-and-mouse game between attackers and defenders.
