The Times Tech Podcast

CHAPTER

Introduction

This is the first episode of The Times' new podcast, 2023. We pick through the week's papers to try and find something funny for Giles Corrin to write about in his Saturday newspaper column. Seshu Madhvapadi has invented a way to remove heat from chips that could improve laptop performance by up to 100%. And we talk to him about why he thought he could pull it off when there have never been any breakthroughs done before.
