    New Frontiers in Farming

    2026-03-04 | 23 mins.
    In an era of climate instability, two innovators are using AI to reimagine agriculture from the soil up. 

    Anastasia Volkova, CEO of Regrow Ag, traces her path from a family farm in Ukraine to building technology that helps farmers worldwide adopt regenerative practices. We also meet Brad Zamft, CEO of Heritable Agriculture, an Alphabet Moonshot project using advanced AI models to decode plant genetics and shrink crop-breeding timelines from years to months.

    Together, they explain how data, computation, and modeling are transforming agriculture into a more resilient, sustainable system — and how AI is helping secure the future of global food production.

    Watch our complimentary documentary in which Brad Zamft takes us first into his lab and then to Ontario, Canada, where Heritable’s work revolutionizing strawberry genetics is making a remarkable impact in the green fields of Tamberry Farms.

    The AI-Energy Nexus

    2026-02-25 | 26 mins.
    As AI models become more powerful, their appetite for energy is soaring — creating a high-stakes tension between technological progress and sustainability. 

    In this episode, Lucia Tian, Google’s Head of Clean Energy & Decarbonization Technologies, helps us navigate the race to secure the carbon-free power that will fuel the next generation of intelligence.

    We explore Google’s innovative approach to this challenge, from pioneering partnerships in advanced geothermal and next-gen nuclear, to using AI itself to stabilize and optimize the grid. Lucia paints a vivid picture of how these breakthroughs can accelerate a net-zero future while keeping the world’s most demanding computing systems online.

    It’s a look at the energy system behind the AI revolution, and the people working to make it both powerful and sustainable.

    Coding the Future

    2026-02-18 | 17 mins.
    While educators continue to debate AI’s role in the classroom, one nonprofit is showing just how powerful this technology can be in the hands of young women around the world. 
    Tara Chklovski, CEO of Technovation, shares her journey from growing up in India to leading a global movement that has empowered girls in more than 100 countries to build AI-enhanced apps that solve real problems in their communities.
    We also meet Aarvi Khandelwal, a 12-year-old innovator who created a natural-disaster preparedness app after experiencing extreme weather in North Carolina. Together, their stories reveal a future of coding — and AI creation — that is inclusive, imaginative, and deeply human.
    Watch our complimentary documentary in which we see Technovation’s mission playing out across the globe, and journey to North Carolina to learn more about Aarvi’s passion for technology.

    Leaps in Logistics

    2026-02-11 | 22 mins.
    Warehouses have long been “black boxes” where inventory disappears and logistics break down. But autonomous robots are finally illuminating the shadows. 
    Oana Jinga, co-founder of Dexory, tells us how her company’s towering robots map warehouses in real time, transforming supply chain visibility and decision-making.
    We travel to a Google data center in the Netherlands to see these machines working to help manage the constant flow of critical parts and supplies. It’s a firsthand look at how AI-powered robotics are physically reshaping the movement of goods we depend on every day — and redefining the future of logistics from the ground up.
    Watch our complimentary documentary in which Oana takes us inside Dexory’s UK headquarters to see the company’s dazzling robots and powerful software in action.

    Anatomy of a Modern Data Center

    2026-02-04 | 21 mins.
    Behind the scenes of the intelligence revolution, data centers are working nonstop to turn ambitious, world-changing AI ideas into real solutions. 
    In this episode, Google’s Partha Ranganathan — one of the architects of modern data center design — takes us inside the infrastructure breakthroughs that power everything from scientific milestones like AlphaFold to everyday tools like Gemini.
    We trace how data centers evolved from basic storage warehouses into ultra-efficient computational engines that now sit at the center of scientific discovery, economic growth, and daily life. And Partha pushes back against the idea that data centers are simply “energy guzzlers,” making a compelling case for why performance and sustainability are increasingly intertwined.
