Skip the noise. Get the download. 

CNBC’s “The Tech Download,” hosted by Senior Technology Correspondent Arjun Kharpal, cuts through the noise to unpack the technology stories that matter most, exploring what they mean for your portfolio, your business and the global economy. With access to industry leaders and years of experience covering technology around the world, the series delivers sharp analysis and compelling narratives on the trends, risks and innovations shaping the future of tech.

CNBC Tech: Beyond The Valley

Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon says artificial intelligence is set to change the way people use smartphones, even if the devices themselves are not going away.

Speaking to CNBC’s Arjun Kharpal on “The Tech Download,” Amon said phones will increasingly be operated by AI agents that can carry out tasks on behalf of users, from managing apps to interacting with services across the internet. He described agents as a major shift for the mobile industry, comparing their emergence to the rise of apps in the smartphone era.

Amon also said new categories of personal AI devices are beginning to take shape, including smart glasses, pins, pendants and other wearables. He said glasses are a natural fit for AI because they sit close to a user’s eyes, ears and mouth, allowing models to process what people see and hear in real time.

The Qualcomm chief also discussed what the shift means for the semiconductor industry, including the need for more powerful and efficient chips in phones, PCs, glasses, cars and other connected devices. He said AI is forcing a rethink of chip architecture as devices increasingly rely on a mix of CPUs, GPUs and neural processing units to run models across both the device and the cloud.

Amon also pointed to memory shortages and wider supply-chain constraints as key challenges for the industry, while arguing that the rise of AI devices could bring new players into consumer electronics.

Europe’s $14 Billion AI Challenger: Mistral CEO Arthur Mensch

Two of Google DeepMind’s leaders—Dawn Bloxwich (Responsible Development & Innovation) and Tom Lue (VP, Frontier AI Global Affairs)—open the playbook on frontier safety and policy. Bloxwich explains how DeepMind blends structured evaluations with red‑teaming by experts and jailbreakers, and how its Frontier Safety Framework addresses severe risks (from CBRN and cyber to loss of control and socio‑affective concerns). Lue maps the regulatory landscape across the EU, US and Asia, arguing for harmonized standards that safeguard without stifling innovation. Together, they show what responsible development looks like before and after deployment—model cards, third‑party testing and the industry forums trying to align best practices.

How DeepMind Red‑Teams AI—and Why It Matters

DeepMind COO Lila Ibrahim shares what’s working right now when AI meets the classroom. She explains how LearnLM has been infused into Gemini and why Guided Learning is designed to teach step‑by‑step rather than just “give the answer.” We discuss an early pilot in Northern Ireland where teachers reported saving ~10 hours per week, and why DeepMind is pushing a teacher‑led, responsibleapproach so students learn to use AI openly and well. Ibrahim also addresses risks (cheating, accuracy) and how modeling responsible usecan build confidence and equity for different learning needs.

How AI Will Reshape Education: DeepMind COO Lila Ibrahim

DeepMind’s co‑founder and CEO Demis Hassabis lays out a pragmatic path to AGI—why he still sees a 5–10 year window, what current models are missing (reasoning, planning, continual learning), and why world models will likely converge with today’s LLMs. He explains how DeepMind became Google’s “engine room” for AI, shipping Gemini advances across products, and why AI for science (from AlphaFold to materials and energy research) is the most exciting frontier. We also touch on compute, energy constraints, and how to scale without cutting corners on safety.
