TECH GIRL ENERGY: The Weekly Debrief

Episode 2 - iOS 18, Foldable Phones and Tiny Robots 

In this week's episode...

Harriet Taylor and Numi Gildert dive into this week's tech headlines and discuss their favourite stories of the week; 

1) The hot topic of the week is the Apple Event showing off the latest iPhone, the new iOS 18, Apple Intelligence - Apples own AI - and arguably the best new feature; the ability for users to create their own emojis with Genmoji.

2) It’s been a big week for phones; Huawei has announced its tri fold phone. Is the folding smartphone a fad or a part of long term transition to multi-functional devices?

3)  A study co-led by the University of Edinburgh’s School of Engineering created magnetic nanobots made up of blood-clotting drugs to treat bleeds in the brain. What impact could these methods of precision drug delivery have in medicine?
