Angkasa-X has plans for a 500-satellite constellation to connect the region in a conducive manner, with their first satellite scheduled to launch in 2022. Their purpose is to provide internet connectivity, particularly for the region’s underserved communities, through what is known as Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) satellites. We’ll be speaking with their Executive Chairman & CEO Dr Sean Seah, to find out just how much of a reality this is.

How does the Internet work? To be honest we don't know either. But on Tech Talk, we deconstruct the relationship between humans and technology and understand how it shapes our business and life.

The Final Frontier?

We’re taking a trip to the weird side today as we explore the power of failure. Matt and Kishan discuss a failed experiment which is leading to new insights about the evolution of our brains, as well as opening pathways to treat conditions like ALS. 

Kishan’s lizard brain is put under the microscope as they talk about a brain implant that could help patients with motor and speech paralysis to communicate more naturally and fluently. And a bioresorbable battery with potential to broaden the field of electroceutical medicine.

Malaysia is about to get an AI Governance Bill, with its own regulator to enforce it. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Digital's Personal Data Protection Department just started a two-week public consultation on AI and personal data protection. It looks like we will soon have two pieces of AI regulation.

We discuss:


Where things stand: How the AI Governance Bill might overlap with the PDPA, whether it applies to government use of AI as well as businesses, and if the national AI office, AI Malaysia Berhad, should remain a company once the Bill passes.


Inside the Bill: Who it actually addresses, the parts that matter most to local businesses, and how it can avoid becoming a “paper tiger”.


Real-world impact: How the Bill plans to address AI in hiring, algorithmic discrimination, AI agents acting on their own, and the areas that Johnson and Khai Yi think are must-haves.

Inside Malaysia's Upcoming AI Governance Bill

It used to be relatively easy to spot a scam call or message. But what happens when the person on the other end looks and sounds exactly like someone you trust? This technology, enabled by AI, is creating a much bigger problem for businesses, where a convincing face or voice could authorise a payment, unlock a system, or extract sensitive information.

We get into:


The problem of deepfakes: How easy it is to fake and how hard it is to detect.


The alarm bells: What signals should make an employee stop and verify who they're actually talking to on a call.


The technology layer: What a system that detects deepfakes needs to be able to do, and how it can keep up with scammers operating on a global level.
