In this episode I have a wonderful conversation with Chris Skinner.
Chris and I recently got in touch at The banking scene 2019, fintech conference recently held in Brussels. During that conference he talked as a real trouble maker - that’s how he defines himself - saying that “People are not educated with loans, credit, money” and that “Banks are failing at digital”.
After I got my hands on his last book Digital Human, I invited him to the show to ask him a few questions about innovation, regulation and technology in finance.

It all starts from physics. The entropy of an isolated system never decreases… Everyone at school, at some point of his life, learned this in his physics class. What does this have to do with machine learning? To find out, listen to the show.

In this episode I met three crazy researchers from KULeuven (Belgium) who found a method to fool surveillance cameras and stay hidden just by holding a special t-shirt. We discussed about the technique they used and some consequences of their findings.
They published their paper on Arxiv and made their source code available at https://gitlab.com/EAVISE/adversarial-yolo
Enjoy the show!
