Jarek Kutylowski is the CEO of DeepL. Kutylowski joins Big Technology Podcast to discuss why specialized AI models are beginning to challenge the industry’s biggest general-purpose systems. He explains how purpose-built models can deliver better accuracy, lower latency, and reduced costs, and why companies are increasingly using model routers to choose the right AI for each task. We also explore how real-time translation could help businesses expand across borders, why voice represents AI's next frontier, and whether glasses and other wearables could give models a better understanding of the physical world. Finally, Kutylowski shares his perspective on AI’s rapid progress, its impact on work and society, and the possibility that seamless translation could allow anyone in the world to communicate with anyone else.
