Tune in for an insightful conversation with one of our summer interns, Emily Weiner, as we navigate the intersection of youth, technology, and corporate environments. This Pure Report episode dives into the unique perspectives of a Gen Z college student exploring the world of emerging technologies, particularly AI, while balancing academic pursuits and professional growth. Emily shares her journey from developing a an app startup in high school to conducting AI research at NYU, and how that relates to her latest experience interning this summer in the Digital Demand function here at Pure. We discuss the challenges and rewards of transitioning from startup and nonprofit environments to a structured corporate setting, and how Pure Storage's innovative culture has helped her bridge that gap. Later, we take a deeper look into the evolving attitudes towards AI among younger generations and balancing academic studies with real-world work experience. Whether you're a student considering a career in tech, a professional curious about the next generation of talent, or someone interested in the human side of technological innovation, this episode offers a fresh take on the rapidly changing landscape of the tech industry.
