1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:02,020
The lead story for Thursday,

2
00:00:02,399 --> 00:00:03,540
March 13

3
00:00:04,639 --> 00:00:06,399
is where I'm gonna break down the biggest

4
00:00:06,399 --> 00:00:09,039
stories in tech and AI. Today, I'm diving

5
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:09,859
into OpenAI's

6
00:00:10,240 --> 00:00:13,859
latest push for influence in Washington with

7
00:00:14,285 --> 00:00:15,585
the current campaign.

8
00:00:16,524 --> 00:00:17,984
With president Trump revoking

9
00:00:18,445 --> 00:00:18,945
Biden's

10
00:00:19,564 --> 00:00:21,105
AI executive order, OpenAI

11
00:00:21,804 --> 00:00:22,304
OpenAI

12
00:00:22,925 --> 00:00:24,224
is making its case

13
00:00:24,765 --> 00:00:25,904
for light regulations,

14
00:00:26,605 --> 00:00:27,744
copyright flexibility,

15
00:00:28,609 --> 00:00:29,429
and a stronger US

16
00:00:29,890 --> 00:00:30,870
stance against

17
00:00:31,250 --> 00:00:32,789
Chinese AI competition.

18
00:00:33,409 --> 00:00:34,469
I'm gonna explore

19
00:00:35,090 --> 00:00:37,170
what this means for the future of AI

20
00:00:37,170 --> 00:00:38,789
development, government partnerships,

21
00:00:39,409 --> 00:00:42,049
and, of course, the ongoing legal battles over

22
00:00:42,049 --> 00:00:42,549
AI

23
00:00:43,215 --> 00:00:45,875
training data. Everyone, welcome to the show.

24
00:00:46,254 --> 00:00:48,414
And, we'll get into the induction here in

25
00:00:48,414 --> 00:00:50,335
a few minutes. But, you know, this this

26
00:00:50,335 --> 00:00:51,155
lead story

27
00:00:52,174 --> 00:00:55,634
where OpenAI is is urging the administration

28
00:00:56,015 --> 00:00:58,835
to remove guardrails for the industry is quite

29
00:00:59,479 --> 00:00:59,979
amazing

30
00:01:00,679 --> 00:01:03,159
and, you know, they've they feel they have

31
00:01:03,159 --> 00:01:03,659
favor.

32
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:06,759
But I think there's gonna be a lot

33
00:01:06,759 --> 00:01:09,420
of people that are going to absolutely scream

34
00:01:10,359 --> 00:01:11,259
bloody murder

35
00:01:12,194 --> 00:01:14,674
over over this proposal. Now they're not the

36
00:01:14,674 --> 00:01:16,295
only ones that have submitted

37
00:01:16,915 --> 00:01:18,915
this has come from a from a host

38
00:01:18,915 --> 00:01:20,055
of AI companies,

39
00:01:20,594 --> 00:01:23,075
but they've called for a copyright strategy that

40
00:01:23,075 --> 00:01:24,295
promotes freedom.

41
00:01:25,120 --> 00:01:26,180
Freedom to learn

42
00:01:26,879 --> 00:01:28,739
and they're invoking this

43
00:01:29,040 --> 00:01:32,340
for preserving American AI models ability

44
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,439
to learn from copyrighted materials. I I think

45
00:01:35,439 --> 00:01:37,379
we we know already

46
00:01:37,984 --> 00:01:40,224
that the Chinese have no such constraints. They

47
00:01:40,224 --> 00:01:40,965
can train

48
00:01:41,905 --> 00:01:44,144
on copyrighted materials and there's not a lot

49
00:01:44,144 --> 00:01:44,885
of recourse,

50
00:01:46,144 --> 00:01:47,525
for companies against,

51
00:01:48,144 --> 00:01:50,965
Chinese state companies. It's just not gonna happen.

52
00:01:51,900 --> 00:01:53,520
And, this proposal

53
00:01:54,460 --> 00:01:55,520
to the US government

54
00:01:56,380 --> 00:01:57,600
obviously is emphasizing

55
00:01:58,060 --> 00:02:00,640
the the need for speed and AI advancement.

56
00:02:00,939 --> 00:02:04,000
And, again, they're asking for a light hand,

57
00:02:04,780 --> 00:02:05,600
from regulations.

58
00:02:06,875 --> 00:02:08,334
They're also talking about

59
00:02:08,715 --> 00:02:11,354
the dangers of AI coming out of China.

60
00:02:11,354 --> 00:02:12,574
I think we can fully

61
00:02:13,194 --> 00:02:15,034
be aware here the AI coming out of

62
00:02:15,034 --> 00:02:17,534
China is gonna continue to advance and

63
00:02:17,995 --> 00:02:19,995
I'm you know, those of you that have

64
00:02:19,995 --> 00:02:21,055
used deep seek,

65
00:02:21,629 --> 00:02:23,069
I I think you use at your own

66
00:02:23,069 --> 00:02:24,370
risk in that regard

67
00:02:24,989 --> 00:02:27,389
based upon everything I know about the Chinese

68
00:02:27,389 --> 00:02:27,889
government.

69
00:02:29,069 --> 00:02:31,150
But we know that when the president threw

70
00:02:31,150 --> 00:02:31,969
out the executive

71
00:02:32,349 --> 00:02:32,849
order

72
00:02:33,775 --> 00:02:34,275
that,

73
00:02:34,814 --> 00:02:36,895
president Biden signed in 2023,

74
00:02:36,895 --> 00:02:38,915
which is titled safe, secure, and trustworthy,

75
00:02:40,735 --> 00:02:43,775
and the subsequent issuing a new executive order

76
00:02:43,775 --> 00:02:45,935
declaring that it is a policy United States

77
00:02:45,935 --> 00:02:48,915
sustain and enhance America's global AI dominance,

78
00:02:49,340 --> 00:02:51,419
which I think is important. I think we

79
00:02:51,419 --> 00:02:52,400
need to be there.

80
00:02:53,019 --> 00:02:56,299
He mandated that a AI action plan be

81
00:02:56,299 --> 00:02:56,799
submitted

82
00:02:57,419 --> 00:02:59,039
within a 80.

83
00:03:01,180 --> 00:03:02,799
So, you know, OpenAI has been

84
00:03:03,099 --> 00:03:03,919
close to,

85
00:03:04,715 --> 00:03:07,055
you know, basically getting some more funding.

86
00:03:08,474 --> 00:03:11,534
There's been found some weakness obviously with Deepsea

87
00:03:11,594 --> 00:03:13,835
coming out and, you know, how much training

88
00:03:13,835 --> 00:03:15,055
data is really needed.

89
00:03:16,074 --> 00:03:16,574
But,

90
00:03:19,229 --> 00:03:21,789
you know, OpenAI at the same time is,

91
00:03:21,789 --> 00:03:24,349
you know, buttering up state saying, hey. We're

92
00:03:24,349 --> 00:03:25,650
gonna we're gonna build

93
00:03:26,189 --> 00:03:28,849
data centers in 16 different states.

94
00:03:30,590 --> 00:03:31,889
But in his proposal,

95
00:03:32,905 --> 00:03:35,064
OpenEye expressed a distaste for the current level

96
00:03:35,064 --> 00:03:37,305
of regulation in AI calling for the freedom

97
00:03:37,305 --> 00:03:37,965
to innovate.

98
00:03:38,985 --> 00:03:40,284
And, you know, I've been using

99
00:03:40,584 --> 00:03:43,245
AI a lot. It's been evolutionary for stuff

100
00:03:43,384 --> 00:03:45,644
that that I've done for a while.

101
00:03:46,419 --> 00:03:46,919
And

102
00:03:47,620 --> 00:03:48,519
and I understand

103
00:03:49,219 --> 00:03:50,519
what they want here.

104
00:03:52,099 --> 00:03:54,259
So time will tell how this is gonna

105
00:03:54,259 --> 00:03:55,000
play out.

106
00:03:55,620 --> 00:03:57,780
But the company said its recommendations could allow

107
00:03:57,780 --> 00:04:00,199
new AI service to be accessed by government

108
00:04:01,105 --> 00:04:03,365
roughly twelve months earlier than the current

109
00:04:03,985 --> 00:04:04,485
processes.

110
00:04:06,465 --> 00:04:07,205
But experts

111
00:04:07,745 --> 00:04:10,865
have expressed concerns that speedy government adoption AI

112
00:04:10,865 --> 00:04:12,805
comes at the potential of safety,

113
00:04:13,759 --> 00:04:16,240
which is true because, you know, what you're

114
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:17,939
putting in with government information

115
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,819
definitely needs to be siloed.

116
00:04:21,759 --> 00:04:22,819
But I could see

117
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,220
in some instances, writing proposals, government contracts

118
00:04:29,354 --> 00:04:29,854
analysis,

119
00:04:30,474 --> 00:04:31,854
some of this is good.

120
00:04:33,754 --> 00:04:36,474
Nothing against the government workers. There's some great

121
00:04:36,474 --> 00:04:39,115
ones out there. But in some instances, I

122
00:04:39,194 --> 00:04:41,194
you know, some of the stuff that's done

123
00:04:41,194 --> 00:04:41,694
is

124
00:04:42,235 --> 00:04:43,615
kind of redundant work.

125
00:04:44,930 --> 00:04:47,990
But, this is an interesting move by,

126
00:04:49,089 --> 00:04:51,810
OpenAI, and I think the biggest controversy on

127
00:04:51,810 --> 00:04:53,269
this is gonna come from,

128
00:04:54,449 --> 00:04:55,990
the discussion of,

129
00:04:56,689 --> 00:04:57,829
you know, using

130
00:04:58,209 --> 00:04:59,430
copyrighted material.

131
00:05:01,944 --> 00:05:03,725
Time will tell. Time will tell.

132
00:05:04,345 --> 00:05:06,345
Hey. But I wanna welcome you to episode

133
00:05:06,345 --> 00:05:07,704
1,806.

134
00:05:07,704 --> 00:05:09,564

00:06:38,615 --> 00:06:40,854
podcast. You know, that's that's two great ways

178
00:06:40,854 --> 00:06:43,050
to get started. GNC codes make it easy

179
00:06:43,050 --> 00:06:45,529
and affordable. Grab GoDaddy's economy hosting for just

187
00:06:57,414 --> 00:06:58,555
which is my favorite,

188
00:06:59,095 --> 00:07:01,754
WordPress managed hosting is just $12.99 a month,

189
00:07:01,894 --> 00:07:04,214
which includes a free domain professional email. And

190
00:07:04,214 --> 00:07:06,694
again, that SSL certificate at $12.99 a month.

191
00:07:06,694 --> 00:07:08,100
Of course, you can get a domain name

192
00:07:08,100 --> 00:07:09,459
for just $11.99

193
00:07:09,459 --> 00:07:11,620
and the GoDaddy website builder is a thirty

194
00:07:11,620 --> 00:07:13,480
free thirty day retrial

195
00:07:14,100 --> 00:07:16,740
of personal business and business plus plans. You

196
00:07:16,740 --> 00:07:19,160
know, I do use all of my GoDaddy

197
00:07:19,220 --> 00:07:20,759
pro products and services.

198
00:07:21,964 --> 00:07:24,444
My annual GoDaddy bill is pretty big just

199
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:27,004
on domain names alone, and your support keeps

200
00:07:27,004 --> 00:07:27,824
this podcast

201
00:07:28,444 --> 00:07:29,504
going and alive.

202
00:07:31,084 --> 00:07:33,904
So use my promo codes, click and save,

203
00:07:34,470 --> 00:07:36,790
or copy the codes. And, again, you're back

204
00:07:36,790 --> 00:07:39,029
in independent team of creators. Share my codes

205
00:07:39,029 --> 00:07:41,589
or website links with friends and family. Because

206
00:07:41,589 --> 00:07:43,910
every time you use one of my codes,

207
00:07:43,910 --> 00:07:44,810
it's just like

208
00:07:45,189 --> 00:07:47,210
sending a cash donation to the show.

209
00:07:47,595 --> 00:07:49,194
So I wanna thank all of you for

210
00:07:49,194 --> 00:07:50,574
your ongoing support

211
00:07:50,955 --> 00:07:52,415
of of GoDaddy.

212
00:07:52,795 --> 00:07:53,775
Hey. The studio,

213
00:07:54,475 --> 00:07:57,275
again, cable came in. I got some feedback

214
00:07:57,275 --> 00:07:59,514
on the last show. We're gonna move the

215
00:07:59,514 --> 00:08:01,754
laptop up about four inches that will help

216
00:08:01,754 --> 00:08:03,860
with a height of view on a few

217
00:08:03,860 --> 00:08:04,360
things.

218
00:08:04,819 --> 00:08:06,980
So that's on its way. A little lift

219
00:08:06,980 --> 00:08:08,120
desk for this.

220
00:08:08,740 --> 00:08:09,240
And,

221
00:08:10,819 --> 00:08:11,560
I really,

222
00:08:12,100 --> 00:08:14,100
Tuesday, I was I was down for the

223
00:08:14,100 --> 00:08:14,600
count.

224
00:08:15,194 --> 00:08:17,514
Just all of a sudden, the back just

225
00:08:17,514 --> 00:08:18,014
went,

226
00:08:18,634 --> 00:08:21,514
and I I just I could not navigate

227
00:08:21,514 --> 00:08:23,294
for about twenty hours.

228
00:08:24,235 --> 00:08:26,875
So, I'm I'm back. Back is,

229
00:08:27,435 --> 00:08:28,175
is good.

230
00:08:29,750 --> 00:08:32,790
But, one thing I've kinda found, working nights

231
00:08:32,790 --> 00:08:33,290
and

232
00:08:33,669 --> 00:08:35,750
maybe some of you that work nights already

233
00:08:35,750 --> 00:08:37,350
know this, you you save a lot of

234
00:08:37,350 --> 00:08:39,610
money. There's there's no reason to go shopping.

235
00:08:39,990 --> 00:08:42,044
You know, you you get if you work

236
00:08:42,044 --> 00:08:43,884
all night, you sleep half the day, you

237
00:08:43,884 --> 00:08:45,504
get up, you make food,

238
00:08:46,125 --> 00:08:48,445
you eat and you rinse, wash, repeat kind

239
00:08:48,445 --> 00:08:51,085
of a, you know, it's it's here I

240
00:08:51,085 --> 00:08:52,945
mean, it's exciting. I'm overseas

241
00:08:53,485 --> 00:08:55,639
but, you know, I didn't leave the room

242
00:08:55,639 --> 00:08:57,340
for, like, two and a half days.

243
00:08:58,440 --> 00:09:00,860
So, yeah, kind of kind of weird,

244
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:03,720
but, the weather's here beautiful. I got a

245
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,879
little bit of sun last weekend and I'll

246
00:09:05,879 --> 00:09:07,720
try to get a little bit more this

247
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:08,220
weekend.

248
00:09:08,524 --> 00:09:09,585
But, hey, let's,

249
00:09:10,445 --> 00:09:11,884
let's get into the rest of the stack

250
00:09:11,884 --> 00:09:13,664
here. I got a good lineup of stuff.

251
00:09:14,044 --> 00:09:16,845
Big news, you know, really Gemini is, is

252
00:09:16,845 --> 00:09:18,845
on the move and it's something how many

253
00:09:18,845 --> 00:09:20,465
of you have been playing with Gemini?

254
00:09:21,485 --> 00:09:22,384
I have not.

255
00:09:23,389 --> 00:09:25,309
But I saw this headline talking about Gemini

256
00:09:25,309 --> 00:09:26,850
can now personalize search

257
00:09:27,309 --> 00:09:30,129
base excuse me, based on your search history.

258
00:09:30,990 --> 00:09:31,649
I thought,

259
00:09:33,070 --> 00:09:35,789
If you enable personalization, Gemini will reference your

260
00:09:35,789 --> 00:09:38,450
search history to enhance some of its responses.

261
00:09:39,764 --> 00:09:42,664
And I thought, do I really want this?

262
00:09:43,524 --> 00:09:45,764
The feature powered by Gemini two point o

263
00:09:45,764 --> 00:09:48,245
Flash Thinking experimental model, and it will only

264
00:09:48,245 --> 00:09:51,065
reference your search results if its AI model

265
00:09:51,284 --> 00:09:53,809
finds it helpful. For instance, if you ask

266
00:09:53,809 --> 00:09:55,190
Gemini about a restaurant

267
00:09:55,649 --> 00:09:58,209
or travel recommendations, a chatbot will refer to

268
00:09:58,209 --> 00:10:00,149
your recent food related searches

269
00:10:00,690 --> 00:10:01,509
to provide

270
00:10:02,690 --> 00:10:05,509
suggestions. And I'm not doing a lot of

271
00:10:06,284 --> 00:10:08,865
food searches on Google per se.

272
00:10:10,445 --> 00:10:12,065
I use different apps.

273
00:10:12,924 --> 00:10:15,565
So it'll be curious to see how this

274
00:10:15,565 --> 00:10:16,065
works.

275
00:10:16,445 --> 00:10:18,204
And again, this is part of a broader

276
00:10:18,204 --> 00:10:18,704
personalization

277
00:10:19,004 --> 00:10:21,210
feature that that they're rolling out. But I

278
00:10:21,210 --> 00:10:22,429
I do have a little

279
00:10:23,129 --> 00:10:23,950
bit of concern

280
00:10:24,330 --> 00:10:24,830
in

281
00:10:25,690 --> 00:10:26,190
using

282
00:10:26,570 --> 00:10:28,490
your search history. And I I've always said

283
00:10:28,490 --> 00:10:30,190
that Google knows more about you

284
00:10:30,649 --> 00:10:33,230
than probably your family members do.

285
00:10:33,610 --> 00:10:35,129
So having that

286
00:10:36,174 --> 00:10:36,995
all that

287
00:10:38,254 --> 00:10:40,035
data being used in the AI.

288
00:10:42,654 --> 00:10:44,975
Yeah. I I I don't I see a

289
00:10:44,975 --> 00:10:46,754
problem there. I really do.

290
00:10:47,535 --> 00:10:49,134
I'm I'm gonna have to look into this

291
00:10:49,134 --> 00:10:50,975
deeper. I think I would be very, very

292
00:10:50,975 --> 00:10:53,450
hesitant because I'm often doing searches on

293
00:10:53,830 --> 00:10:55,370
competitors. I'm doing

294
00:10:55,750 --> 00:10:57,129
looks at different things

295
00:10:57,669 --> 00:10:59,529
and do I really want

296
00:11:01,669 --> 00:11:03,769
the software to do that? I

297
00:11:04,149 --> 00:11:06,470
I don't know. What say you? What's your

298
00:11:06,470 --> 00:11:09,585
opinion? Geeknews@gmail.com.

299
00:11:10,845 --> 00:11:11,985
At the same time, OpenAI

300
00:11:13,085 --> 00:11:15,565
talked about, you know, changes to the policy

301
00:11:15,565 --> 00:11:17,665
here in The United States. They've called DeepSeek

302
00:11:17,725 --> 00:11:18,625
a state controlled

303
00:11:19,404 --> 00:11:21,725
and calls for bans on p I PRC

304
00:11:21,725 --> 00:11:23,825
product models. This is pretty bold.

305
00:11:25,779 --> 00:11:28,100
OpenAI described Chinese ALI deep seek as a

306
00:11:28,100 --> 00:11:30,820
state subsidized and state controlled and recommends the

307
00:11:30,820 --> 00:11:34,019
US government considers banning models from the outfit

308
00:11:34,019 --> 00:11:36,919
in similar People's Republic Of China supported operations.

309
00:11:37,379 --> 00:11:38,120
The proposal,

310
00:11:39,445 --> 00:11:41,204
the part of the submission, I guess, of

311
00:11:41,204 --> 00:11:42,664
this AI action plan

312
00:11:43,044 --> 00:11:45,845
claims deep DeepSeek model including its r one

313
00:11:45,845 --> 00:11:49,225
reasoning model are insecure because DeepSeek faces requirements

314
00:11:49,365 --> 00:11:50,424
under Chinese law

315
00:11:50,804 --> 00:11:51,464
to comply

316
00:11:53,649 --> 00:11:55,429
to comply here with

317
00:11:56,210 --> 00:11:56,950
their ability

318
00:11:57,649 --> 00:11:58,149
to,

319
00:11:59,410 --> 00:12:01,410
look at user data and part of their

320
00:12:01,809 --> 00:12:03,750
the terms of services, they will use

321
00:12:04,050 --> 00:12:04,550
your

322
00:12:04,929 --> 00:12:07,644
user data. So they may be on to

323
00:12:07,644 --> 00:12:09,105
something there as well.

324
00:12:10,524 --> 00:12:12,225
Kind of got these out of order. Gemini

325
00:12:12,605 --> 00:12:13,424
Deep Research,

326
00:12:14,764 --> 00:12:17,424
is also free now for everyone. So

327
00:12:18,044 --> 00:12:19,184
give it a try.

328
00:12:19,809 --> 00:12:21,809
Again, the research tool is getting huge upgrade

329
00:12:21,809 --> 00:12:23,029
to two point o flash.

330
00:12:23,490 --> 00:12:26,050
There will be now better reasoning and it's

331
00:12:26,050 --> 00:12:29,170
it's now free for everyone with advanced users

332
00:12:29,170 --> 00:12:29,670
getting

333
00:12:30,050 --> 00:12:33,090
expanded access. So that's that's available. Should have

334
00:12:33,090 --> 00:12:34,610
had that linked up a little better. Thought

335
00:12:34,610 --> 00:12:35,190
I did.

336
00:12:35,705 --> 00:12:38,125
Microsoft at the same time is facing FTC

337
00:12:38,264 --> 00:12:40,365
antitrust probe over AI

338
00:12:40,904 --> 00:12:43,625
and licensing practices and this could really shape

339
00:12:43,625 --> 00:12:47,144
up the AI competition. We know that, you

340
00:12:47,144 --> 00:12:49,679
know, Google is also facing some anti trust

341
00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:51,940
stuff and then put potentially losing,

342
00:12:52,799 --> 00:12:55,940
Chrome and maybe even Android at some point.

343
00:12:56,399 --> 00:12:56,899
But,

344
00:12:57,679 --> 00:12:59,779
you know, a lot of consolidation here.

345
00:13:00,240 --> 00:13:02,980
So they're reportedly pressing ahead with this antitrust

346
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:04,660
investigation into Microsoft.

347
00:13:06,134 --> 00:13:07,735
As part of the probe, the FTC has

348
00:13:07,735 --> 00:13:09,674
issued a civil investigative demand,

349
00:13:10,534 --> 00:13:13,735
requiring Microsoft to disclose extensive data on its

350
00:13:13,735 --> 00:13:16,774
AI operations, including cost of acquiring data and

351
00:13:16,774 --> 00:13:19,514
training model data back to 02/2016.

352
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:20,980
So

353
00:13:22,559 --> 00:13:23,039
this is,

354
00:13:23,839 --> 00:13:24,500
this is

355
00:13:24,879 --> 00:13:25,379
more

356
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,000
impact where you say, hey. You might have

357
00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:28,819
to go alone.

358
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:31,699
So we'll see we'll see where this leads.

359
00:13:32,565 --> 00:13:34,565
Adobe today got hammered in the stock market

360
00:13:34,565 --> 00:13:36,004
and I and you know, I'm a big

361
00:13:36,004 --> 00:13:38,745
Adobe fan. I I use Adobe products heavily.

362
00:13:38,884 --> 00:13:41,524
We we're we're integrated at Blueberry with Adobe

363
00:13:41,524 --> 00:13:42,024
podcast,

364
00:13:42,565 --> 00:13:43,065
Adobe,

365
00:13:43,845 --> 00:13:44,825
Express premium.

366
00:13:45,605 --> 00:13:46,105
So

367
00:13:47,389 --> 00:13:50,429
I just don't believe that Adobe is going

368
00:13:50,429 --> 00:13:52,850
to drop is is going to become that

369
00:13:53,230 --> 00:13:55,490
irrelevant. There's still this huge need

370
00:13:55,870 --> 00:13:56,850
for their tools.

371
00:13:57,950 --> 00:14:00,830
But there's worries that in recent months that

372
00:14:00,830 --> 00:14:02,745
the company is falling behind in

373
00:14:03,384 --> 00:14:04,284
some competitors

374
00:14:05,065 --> 00:14:07,485
and losing its advantage on AI.

375
00:14:10,184 --> 00:14:11,725
I I think this is

376
00:14:12,105 --> 00:14:14,504
curious. The company's analyzed rate current revenue from

377
00:14:14,504 --> 00:14:16,825
AI contributed to a hundred 25,000,000 during the

378
00:14:16,825 --> 00:14:17,325
period,

379
00:14:17,750 --> 00:14:18,409
and nobody

380
00:14:18,950 --> 00:14:19,509
expects the

381
00:14:20,549 --> 00:14:22,009
that number to increase.

382
00:14:23,269 --> 00:14:26,649
But he an analyst at Morgan Stanley said

383
00:14:27,029 --> 00:14:29,909
that new disclosures of Gen AI contribution stepped

384
00:14:29,909 --> 00:14:31,754
in the right direction, but that most investors

385
00:14:31,754 --> 00:14:33,434
need to see a clear roadmap at the

386
00:14:33,434 --> 00:14:34,735
company's investor meeting.

387
00:14:35,355 --> 00:14:35,855
So

388
00:14:37,115 --> 00:14:39,835
Bernstein's Mark Mueller recommended buying on the stock

389
00:14:39,835 --> 00:14:42,075
road in a report that believe that Adobe

390
00:14:42,075 --> 00:14:44,075
is an AI winner and that AI is

391
00:14:44,075 --> 00:14:46,660
not replacing existing revenue streams. I I would

392
00:14:46,660 --> 00:14:47,160
agree,

393
00:14:47,700 --> 00:14:50,120
but boy, they definitely got they got whacked.

394
00:14:51,139 --> 00:14:53,540
They had ingested earnings of $5.08

395
00:14:53,540 --> 00:14:55,639
per share at 5,710,000,000.00

396
00:14:55,700 --> 00:14:56,440
in revenue,

397
00:14:57,674 --> 00:15:01,514
and, they did an estimate only 5.71

398
00:15:01,514 --> 00:15:03,434
or 4 90 7 in earnings. So they

399
00:15:03,434 --> 00:15:05,375
did better than what the estimate was.

400
00:15:05,995 --> 00:15:06,495
So,

401
00:15:07,995 --> 00:15:11,054
I guess that adjusted earnings per share

402
00:15:11,909 --> 00:15:13,750
might have been the impact. I don't know.

403
00:15:13,750 --> 00:15:15,850
Seems a little odd to me.

404
00:15:16,470 --> 00:15:19,750
So as Zuckerberg promised, community notes is coming

405
00:15:19,750 --> 00:15:20,409
to Facebook.

406
00:15:20,950 --> 00:15:23,750
So testing begins on community notes in Facebook,

407
00:15:23,750 --> 00:15:24,889
Instagram, and threads.

408
00:15:25,605 --> 00:15:26,105
So,

409
00:15:27,205 --> 00:15:28,985
if you're want to want to

410
00:15:29,605 --> 00:15:32,345
provide feedback and say this is not true,

411
00:15:32,804 --> 00:15:35,044
they said we will shortly begin testing community

412
00:15:35,044 --> 00:15:37,125
notes across Facebook. We expect community notes to

413
00:15:37,125 --> 00:15:37,524
be biased

414
00:15:38,299 --> 00:15:40,620
be less biased than the third party fact

415
00:15:40,620 --> 00:15:43,100
checking program it replaces because it allows more

416
00:15:43,100 --> 00:15:46,539
people with with more perspectives to add context

417
00:15:46,539 --> 00:15:48,720
and notes won't appear publicly initially

418
00:15:49,100 --> 00:15:50,939
as they take time to ensure the system

419
00:15:50,939 --> 00:15:52,799
is working pry properly.

420
00:15:53,504 --> 00:15:55,184
They've got about 200,000

421
00:15:55,184 --> 00:15:56,325
potential contributors

422
00:15:57,184 --> 00:15:58,865
and that have signed up. So that tells

423
00:15:58,865 --> 00:16:01,345
you people got a lot of time to

424
00:16:01,345 --> 00:16:01,845
volunteer

425
00:16:03,184 --> 00:16:04,245
to help Facebook.

426
00:16:05,024 --> 00:16:07,585
Two hundred thousand people have said, I'll I'll

427
00:16:07,585 --> 00:16:08,245
I'll help.

428
00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:09,980
Here, me me me me.

429
00:16:11,399 --> 00:16:13,720
They're already getting enough stuff. They they can

430
00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:15,820
pay some people to do this.

431
00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,379
So, again, testing begins.

432
00:16:21,644 --> 00:16:23,425
For a first, a man has survived

433
00:16:23,805 --> 00:16:25,904
a hundred days with a titanium heart.

434
00:16:26,764 --> 00:16:29,165
This Australian man in his forties would become

435
00:16:29,165 --> 00:16:31,485
the first person to leave the hospital with

436
00:16:31,485 --> 00:16:33,105
artificial heart made of titanium.

437
00:16:33,990 --> 00:16:34,649
The device

438
00:16:35,429 --> 00:16:37,450
was used as a stop yet measure

439
00:16:38,709 --> 00:16:41,110
or basically he did his heart a heart

440
00:16:41,110 --> 00:16:42,490
donor was not available.

441
00:16:43,110 --> 00:16:45,029
He went about a hundred days on the

442
00:16:45,029 --> 00:16:47,509
artificial heart before he was able to go

443
00:16:47,509 --> 00:16:48,250
back in

444
00:16:48,684 --> 00:16:49,965
and get a,

445
00:16:50,445 --> 00:16:51,425
a donor heart.

446
00:16:52,045 --> 00:16:52,605
This is,

447
00:16:53,085 --> 00:16:55,404
the Australian is a sixth person globally to

448
00:16:55,404 --> 00:16:57,904
receive the device known as VIVA COR,

449
00:16:58,285 --> 00:16:59,884
but the first to live with it for

450
00:16:59,884 --> 00:17:00,865
more than a month.

451
00:17:01,470 --> 00:17:02,990
So, you know, the odds of being on

452
00:17:02,990 --> 00:17:05,490
this thing are not are not great.

453
00:17:07,069 --> 00:17:07,970
One thing about,

454
00:17:09,309 --> 00:17:09,809
IT

455
00:17:10,829 --> 00:17:11,329
is

456
00:17:12,190 --> 00:17:14,690
I have always told my team if something

457
00:17:14,829 --> 00:17:16,704
is bad news, I I wanna hear about

458
00:17:16,704 --> 00:17:18,085
it right away immediately.

459
00:17:18,544 --> 00:17:20,704
I don't wanna find about it, a week

460
00:17:20,704 --> 00:17:21,204
later.

461
00:17:21,585 --> 00:17:23,845
I wanna know. Let's we'll make the adjustment.

462
00:17:24,464 --> 00:17:27,024
But there's a lot of people scared out

463
00:17:27,024 --> 00:17:29,264
there. 40% of IT leaders are scared to

464
00:17:29,264 --> 00:17:30,804
admit mistakes due to workplace

465
00:17:31,819 --> 00:17:33,900
culture, or fear. Two and five are scared

466
00:17:33,900 --> 00:17:34,799
to admit a mistake

467
00:17:35,339 --> 00:17:37,980
and men are more fearful. German and US

468
00:17:37,980 --> 00:17:40,160
better than UK for IT leaders.

469
00:17:40,779 --> 00:17:43,740
And this this to me is, you know,

470
00:17:43,740 --> 00:17:45,359
this isn't this is not good.

471
00:17:46,174 --> 00:17:48,035
With cybersecurity the way it is,

472
00:17:48,815 --> 00:17:51,234
moving fast and things are changing quickly,

473
00:17:51,694 --> 00:17:53,694
we need to make sure that our IT

474
00:17:53,694 --> 00:17:55,454
people feel free to come and say, hey.

475
00:17:55,454 --> 00:17:56,355
There's an issue.

476
00:17:58,380 --> 00:18:01,200
Whether it was self induced or not,

477
00:18:02,539 --> 00:18:03,920
it's it's really, really

478
00:18:04,460 --> 00:18:07,200
workplace culture of fear is not good.

479
00:18:07,820 --> 00:18:09,900
And with all these new tools coming out,

480
00:18:10,539 --> 00:18:12,859
there's gonna be a lot more availability to

481
00:18:12,859 --> 00:18:13,680
find stuff.

482
00:18:14,515 --> 00:18:15,734
We're all not perfect.

483
00:18:17,075 --> 00:18:18,134
That is for sure.

484
00:18:19,234 --> 00:18:22,115
Meta is warning worrying of a security flaw

485
00:18:22,115 --> 00:18:23,974
hitting open source type software.

486
00:18:25,075 --> 00:18:25,575
Retype.

487
00:18:26,179 --> 00:18:28,500
Retype has carried a flaw that allowed remote

488
00:18:28,500 --> 00:18:30,339
code execution. So if you work with a

489
00:18:30,339 --> 00:18:31,079
dev team

490
00:18:31,539 --> 00:18:33,079
and that word free type

491
00:18:33,779 --> 00:18:36,259
sounds familiar to you, make sure you tell

492
00:18:36,259 --> 00:18:38,660
your team. I don't re recognize it. To

493
00:18:38,660 --> 00:18:40,019
be honest with you, I sent it over

494
00:18:40,019 --> 00:18:41,744
to my dev team and said, hey. Are

495
00:18:41,744 --> 00:18:42,805
we using this?

496
00:18:43,664 --> 00:18:46,384
You know, here's a heads up. So, they've

497
00:18:46,545 --> 00:18:48,785
of course, they're all, it's late late on

498
00:18:48,785 --> 00:18:50,005
the East Coast, so

499
00:18:50,305 --> 00:18:52,305
they they probably will not see it tomorrow

500
00:18:52,305 --> 00:18:53,924
morning, which is okay. But

501
00:18:55,130 --> 00:18:56,890
shifting the topic here a little bit. IPhone

502
00:18:56,890 --> 00:18:58,109
17 Pro

503
00:18:58,490 --> 00:18:59,309
Max and

504
00:18:59,690 --> 00:19:02,089
are really, you know, on the horizon here

505
00:19:02,089 --> 00:19:04,329
and, you know, it's the latest greatest thing.

506
00:19:04,329 --> 00:19:05,950
It's hard to believe we're up to iPhone

507
00:19:06,490 --> 00:19:09,869
17 already, really, if you think about that.

508
00:19:10,144 --> 00:19:11,924
But there's some rumors out there.

509
00:19:13,345 --> 00:19:15,044
What will new iPhone 17

510
00:19:15,345 --> 00:19:16,804
lineup look like?

511
00:19:17,504 --> 00:19:20,384
It's, the iPhone 17 Airs to match app

512
00:19:20,865 --> 00:19:23,044
Apple's Ultra laptop designation,

513
00:19:24,289 --> 00:19:25,349
and open source

514
00:19:26,769 --> 00:19:29,569
that's giving out intel that the iPhone 17

515
00:19:29,569 --> 00:19:31,089
air will be equipped with a basic a

516
00:19:31,089 --> 00:19:33,250
19 chip and will only have a single

517
00:19:33,250 --> 00:19:34,150
camera. So,

518
00:19:35,009 --> 00:19:36,869
very light model.

519
00:19:37,809 --> 00:19:38,130
Each

520
00:19:39,125 --> 00:19:41,765
of course, there's gonna be improved cameras and

521
00:19:41,765 --> 00:19:43,365
all kinds of other stuff, but the iPhone

522
00:19:43,365 --> 00:19:43,865
seventeen's

523
00:19:44,164 --> 00:19:46,404
Air seems to be the one that most

524
00:19:46,404 --> 00:19:48,585
people are talking about. Of course, iOS 19,

525
00:19:50,965 --> 00:19:53,445
that, a redesigned camera app, of course, they

526
00:19:53,445 --> 00:19:56,450
already really screwed up the the picture app,

527
00:19:56,830 --> 00:19:59,070
might point to more drastic changes for the

528
00:19:59,070 --> 00:20:02,109
operating system. Early in March, Bloomberg also backed

529
00:20:02,109 --> 00:20:04,190
the assertion that an iOS overhaul is in

530
00:20:04,190 --> 00:20:04,849
the works.

531
00:20:05,150 --> 00:20:07,605
There hasn't been a notable overhaul of iOS

532
00:20:07,605 --> 00:20:09,605
for several generations here and it could be

533
00:20:09,605 --> 00:20:10,505
exciting to see

534
00:20:10,884 --> 00:20:13,625
Apple pushing the envelope. Your time will tell.

535
00:20:14,005 --> 00:20:14,505
So,

536
00:20:15,605 --> 00:20:17,304
you know, we'll all

537
00:20:17,684 --> 00:20:19,865
just wait for the next iteration of

538
00:20:20,500 --> 00:20:21,079
the iPhone.

539
00:20:21,700 --> 00:20:24,599
Microsoft is warning folks about a new phishing

540
00:20:24,660 --> 00:20:25,880
campaign impersonating

541
00:20:26,259 --> 00:20:27,400
Booking.com.

542
00:20:27,859 --> 00:20:29,419
So if you get an email, if you've

543
00:20:29,539 --> 00:20:31,380
if you order stuff through Booking.com

544
00:20:31,380 --> 00:20:33,559
or have experience with them or don't,

545
00:20:34,125 --> 00:20:36,625
be very very careful out there. Okay?

546
00:20:38,205 --> 00:20:39,904
And, you know, as the show evolves

547
00:20:40,445 --> 00:20:43,964
and we are providing you, I feel, great

548
00:20:43,964 --> 00:20:44,464
information

549
00:20:44,765 --> 00:20:47,029
and things to think about, I want you

550
00:20:47,029 --> 00:20:48,049
to consider becoming

551
00:20:48,349 --> 00:20:53,390

552
00:20:53,390 --> 00:20:55,009

557
00:21:02,644 --> 00:21:04,744
for their $25

558
00:21:04,804 --> 00:21:06,184
monthly Al Ahi

559
00:21:06,724 --> 00:21:08,264
or chief donation.

560
00:21:09,284 --> 00:21:12,585
We definitely appreciate their long term ongoing

561
00:21:13,284 --> 00:21:15,819
support for the show And, we did have

562
00:21:15,819 --> 00:21:17,500
some sats come in, 2,200.

563
00:21:17,500 --> 00:21:19,519
2 sats came in from Darren Schwartz.

564
00:21:20,460 --> 00:21:22,220
He says dodge for the win. Anyway, paying

565
00:21:22,220 --> 00:21:23,980
taxes should be fair. It's hard tax dollars

566
00:21:23,980 --> 00:21:24,720
have been spent.

567
00:21:25,179 --> 00:21:27,099
And maybe I covered that one already, but

568
00:21:27,099 --> 00:21:29,200
we've also had, streaming sats,

569
00:21:30,384 --> 00:21:32,785
where folks are streaming the show at between

570
00:21:32,785 --> 00:21:34,565
fifty and one hundred sats,

571
00:21:35,105 --> 00:21:35,845
per minute,

572
00:21:36,625 --> 00:21:37,125
including,

573
00:21:37,825 --> 00:21:39,825
even some folks that actually came in at

574
00:21:39,825 --> 00:21:42,325
400 sats a minute. So bravo

575
00:21:43,099 --> 00:21:44,539
to those of you that were,

576
00:21:45,019 --> 00:21:47,519
streaming sats like that. We definitely appreciate,

577
00:21:48,700 --> 00:21:49,759
you doing so.

578
00:21:50,460 --> 00:21:52,299
And if anyone is sending any boost or

579
00:21:52,299 --> 00:21:55,099
anything and they're having any challenges, make sure

580
00:21:55,099 --> 00:21:57,305
you let me know. Definitely go over to

581
00:21:57,305 --> 00:21:59,884
getcentral.com/insider.

582
00:22:00,984 --> 00:22:02,664
That's where you can make us a one

583
00:22:02,664 --> 00:22:03,884
time PayPal donation.

584
00:22:04,585 --> 00:22:07,305
And, it's those are those really help. They

585
00:22:07,305 --> 00:22:09,244
really do. They go a long ways. Anytime

586
00:22:09,849 --> 00:22:10,669
we get

587
00:22:11,369 --> 00:22:12,429
a one time donation,

588
00:22:12,730 --> 00:22:14,409
if you're not on the monthly, we we

589
00:22:14,409 --> 00:22:17,369
definitely appreciate that as well. But again, consider

590
00:22:17,369 --> 00:22:18,909
becoming an insider here.

591
00:22:19,450 --> 00:22:23,289
Google messages just fixed some serious issues with

592
00:22:23,289 --> 00:22:25,470
receiving photos and videos.

593
00:22:26,945 --> 00:22:28,305
So I did not know there was an

594
00:22:28,305 --> 00:22:30,065
issue, but apparently some of you have been

595
00:22:30,065 --> 00:22:32,325
having problems with pictures being sent.

596
00:22:33,025 --> 00:22:33,525
So,

597
00:22:35,184 --> 00:22:36,644
and they're slow to load.

598
00:22:37,664 --> 00:22:39,365
They show up blurry for a minute

599
00:22:40,589 --> 00:22:41,809
before the actual,

600
00:22:42,669 --> 00:22:44,750
user can actually open them. I've seen that

601
00:22:44,750 --> 00:22:45,630
with with,

602
00:22:46,910 --> 00:22:48,990
with iOS as well. So I don't think

603
00:22:48,990 --> 00:22:52,269
this is anything that is completely limited to

604
00:22:52,269 --> 00:22:52,769
Google,

605
00:22:53,244 --> 00:22:55,105
but, you may see an update there.

606
00:22:55,724 --> 00:22:59,884
Meghan Markle's new Netflix show, well, they don't

607
00:22:59,884 --> 00:23:01,585
have nice things to say about it.

608
00:23:02,125 --> 00:23:04,684
Meghan Markle's new Netflix series with Love Meghan

609
00:23:04,684 --> 00:23:07,585
has been met with criticism from podcast host

610
00:23:07,909 --> 00:23:10,230
Kinsey Schofield. In an interview with Fox News

611
00:23:10,230 --> 00:23:13,529
Digital, Schofield accused Marco of being self consumed

612
00:23:13,750 --> 00:23:16,950
and tone deaf on the show. Schofield pointed

613
00:23:16,950 --> 00:23:20,009
out Marco's interaction with guest Mindy Kaling saying,

614
00:23:20,194 --> 00:23:22,355
you're standing next to Mindy Kaling and you're

615
00:23:22,355 --> 00:23:25,474
not asking her her how she built her

616
00:23:25,474 --> 00:23:26,694
girl boss empire.

617
00:23:28,275 --> 00:23:29,095
It's true.

618
00:23:29,714 --> 00:23:30,214
So

619
00:23:30,755 --> 00:23:32,694
I haven't followed a lot of stuff on

620
00:23:32,835 --> 00:23:34,454
on Netflix in a while.

621
00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:37,160
Are you watching on anything on Netflix that

622
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:38,460
should get my attention?

623
00:23:39,480 --> 00:23:40,539
I definitely appreciate

624
00:23:40,840 --> 00:23:43,160
it. Google is, you know, they're not happy.

625
00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:44,840
They they're asking Utah as the governor to

626
00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,660
detail the state's app store age verification bill.

627
00:23:47,884 --> 00:23:50,625
The company says the law poses real privacy

628
00:23:51,085 --> 00:23:53,184
and safety risk to children. Really?

629
00:23:53,965 --> 00:23:55,184
No. It doesn't.

630
00:23:55,644 --> 00:23:58,365
It doesn't it doesn't add privacy and safety

631
00:23:58,365 --> 00:23:58,865
risk.

632
00:23:59,325 --> 00:24:00,945
You know, here's the thing.

633
00:24:01,404 --> 00:24:02,625
You guys should do that.

634
00:24:04,169 --> 00:24:05,869
Apple is big on privacy.

635
00:24:06,409 --> 00:24:07,710
And why isn't Google?

636
00:24:08,569 --> 00:24:09,069
So,

637
00:24:09,529 --> 00:24:11,130
you know, no, I don't think this should

638
00:24:11,130 --> 00:24:12,890
be vetoed. I think this one that should

639
00:24:12,890 --> 00:24:13,549
go through.

640
00:24:13,929 --> 00:24:15,529
I think all states should adopt it, to

641
00:24:15,529 --> 00:24:16,589
be honest with you.

642
00:24:17,984 --> 00:24:20,464
Maitre is trying to stop a former employee

643
00:24:20,464 --> 00:24:22,325
from promoting your book about Facebook.

644
00:24:22,705 --> 00:24:23,205
Wow.

645
00:24:24,384 --> 00:24:26,085
Wow. You think about that.

646
00:24:27,904 --> 00:24:30,945
Sarah Wynne Williams has researched details about Mark

647
00:24:30,945 --> 00:24:31,445
Zuckerberg's

648
00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:33,140
attempts to bring Facebook

649
00:24:33,519 --> 00:24:35,200
to China and we talked about that on

650
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:36,100
the last show,

651
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:38,080
but they don't want this book to come

652
00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:38,580
out.

653
00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,600
He's he notched an early victory in its

654
00:24:41,600 --> 00:24:43,920
attempt to halt a surprise tell all memoir

655
00:24:43,920 --> 00:24:45,619
from a former policy executive

656
00:24:46,005 --> 00:24:48,325
and arbitrator decided with the social media company

657
00:24:48,325 --> 00:24:50,244
saying that the book's author should stop selling

658
00:24:50,244 --> 00:24:52,805
and publicizing the book which went on sale

659
00:24:52,805 --> 00:24:54,565
earlier this week. It's already out there. You

660
00:24:54,565 --> 00:24:56,664
can't put the genie back in the bottle.

661
00:24:57,605 --> 00:25:01,224
The drama stems from careless people new book

662
00:25:02,299 --> 00:25:02,799
And

663
00:25:03,339 --> 00:25:05,819
Facebook fired her in 02/2007

664
00:25:05,819 --> 00:25:06,319
described

665
00:25:06,619 --> 00:25:09,519
by its publisher as an explosive insider account

666
00:25:10,460 --> 00:25:13,179
revealing some new details about Zuckerberg's push to

667
00:25:13,179 --> 00:25:15,644
bring Facebook to China A Decade ago. She

668
00:25:15,644 --> 00:25:17,884
also alleges that made his current policy chief,

669
00:25:17,884 --> 00:25:19,904
Joe Kaplan, acted inappropriately

670
00:25:20,365 --> 00:25:22,625
and reveals embarrassing details about

671
00:25:22,924 --> 00:25:23,424
Zuckerberg's

672
00:25:23,805 --> 00:25:26,845
awkward encounters with world leaders. Well, you know,

673
00:25:26,845 --> 00:25:28,305
Zuck is a techie.

674
00:25:29,029 --> 00:25:31,750
He's a nerd. He's a bit of geeky.

675
00:25:31,750 --> 00:25:33,909
So I'm sure there's gonna be some awkward

676
00:25:33,909 --> 00:25:34,409
moments.

677
00:25:34,789 --> 00:25:35,289
Doesn't

678
00:25:35,589 --> 00:25:37,990
say that, you know, anything that Facebook is

679
00:25:37,990 --> 00:25:40,309
doing. Everything Facebook is doing is horrible, but

680
00:25:40,309 --> 00:25:41,450
a lot of it is.

681
00:25:43,994 --> 00:25:44,494
But,

682
00:25:45,035 --> 00:25:46,414
you know, part of my

683
00:25:47,674 --> 00:25:49,755
when when I stopped working for the government,

684
00:25:49,755 --> 00:25:51,515
I made an agreement that if I was

685
00:25:51,515 --> 00:25:54,015
ever going to write a book about my

686
00:25:54,474 --> 00:25:54,974
JOB,

687
00:25:55,515 --> 00:25:57,595
it would have to go through governmental review.

688
00:25:57,595 --> 00:25:58,470
That that

689
00:25:58,869 --> 00:26:00,490
it applies until I die.

690
00:26:01,190 --> 00:26:03,109
Now I'm not in any mood to write

691
00:26:03,109 --> 00:26:03,769
a book

692
00:26:04,309 --> 00:26:05,690
about my my JOB.

693
00:26:06,230 --> 00:26:08,169
That'd be fun to tell the stories,

694
00:26:08,549 --> 00:26:11,190
but 90% of it would be redacted with

695
00:26:11,190 --> 00:26:12,409
a big black pen.

696
00:26:12,894 --> 00:26:13,394
So

697
00:26:14,494 --> 00:26:15,474
is part of your

698
00:26:15,855 --> 00:26:18,914
agreement with employers may require this type of

699
00:26:21,775 --> 00:26:22,434
a agreement.

700
00:26:23,054 --> 00:26:25,154
I don't know if this happens in

701
00:26:26,200 --> 00:26:27,820
the civilian world or not,

702
00:26:28,519 --> 00:26:29,019
but

703
00:26:29,320 --> 00:26:32,200
definitely in government it happens. But definitely Facebook

704
00:26:32,200 --> 00:26:33,740
is trying to get this shut down.

705
00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,100
Printers apparently are spitting out nonsense after,

706
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,539
a borked Windows update. So so, you know,

707
00:26:41,545 --> 00:26:43,085
someday we'll be able to get rid of

708
00:26:43,224 --> 00:26:44,204
printers completely.

709
00:26:44,984 --> 00:26:46,984
But this time, it's a % the fault

710
00:26:46,984 --> 00:26:48,125
of Windows and Microsoft.

711
00:26:49,384 --> 00:26:49,884
And,

712
00:26:50,424 --> 00:26:52,744
Microsoft issued an alert that if a preview

713
00:26:52,744 --> 00:26:54,664
under Windows ten and eleven sent out on

714
00:26:54,664 --> 00:26:56,924
January 29 was causing some printers

715
00:26:57,440 --> 00:26:59,460
to randomly print a string of unintelligible

716
00:26:59,759 --> 00:27:02,079
text starting with post blah blah blah blah

717
00:27:02,079 --> 00:27:04,799
blah blah and continuing with more blah blah

718
00:27:04,799 --> 00:27:06,880
blah blah blah. Yeah. So in other words,

719
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:08,500
it just prints junk

720
00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:10,960
and it's a rare it's a driver issue.

721
00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:12,339
So did they get it fixed?

722
00:27:15,944 --> 00:27:17,964
Yeah. They haven't fixed it yet. So

723
00:27:19,144 --> 00:27:22,504
that's that's the, risk of running beta stuff

724
00:27:22,504 --> 00:27:24,424
in early releases. You you may end up

725
00:27:24,424 --> 00:27:25,464
with something that is,

726
00:27:26,105 --> 00:27:27,004
that's bad.

727
00:27:27,470 --> 00:27:28,990
You know, we've we wear a lot of

728
00:27:28,990 --> 00:27:29,490
wearables.

729
00:27:30,109 --> 00:27:32,269
Either you're wearing a Fitbit or an Apple

730
00:27:32,269 --> 00:27:32,769
watch.

731
00:27:33,710 --> 00:27:35,390
You know, they're real good at telling you

732
00:27:35,390 --> 00:27:36,130
your heartbeat

733
00:27:36,910 --> 00:27:37,410
and,

734
00:27:37,950 --> 00:27:40,430
AFib now and all these things that they've

735
00:27:40,430 --> 00:27:41,490
been approved for.

736
00:27:41,845 --> 00:27:44,085
But blood pressure tracking could be the next

737
00:27:44,085 --> 00:27:46,644
big thing on a future Fitbit device. That

738
00:27:46,644 --> 00:27:47,384
is exciting,

739
00:27:47,684 --> 00:27:49,065
to be honest with you.

740
00:27:49,605 --> 00:27:51,684
Patent details of leaked hinting in a non

741
00:27:51,684 --> 00:27:53,384
invasive way to do this.

742
00:27:55,900 --> 00:27:58,220
So Fitbit's previous patent to measure the same

743
00:27:58,220 --> 00:27:59,519
metric was rejected

744
00:28:00,140 --> 00:28:02,059
and and the company has not give up.

745
00:28:02,059 --> 00:28:03,819
The company wants to achieve a non invasive

746
00:28:03,819 --> 00:28:05,740
way to measure blood pressure which could achieve

747
00:28:05,740 --> 00:28:06,240
if

748
00:28:06,539 --> 00:28:08,059
if the said wearable could

749
00:28:08,944 --> 00:28:11,684
would carry both pressure and optical sensors.

750
00:28:12,704 --> 00:28:14,785
Knowing what your blood pressure is on a

751
00:28:14,785 --> 00:28:16,625
a day to day basis and knowing when

752
00:28:16,625 --> 00:28:17,684
it's super high

753
00:28:18,065 --> 00:28:20,304
is important. It really is. It allows you

754
00:28:20,304 --> 00:28:21,585
to have the ability to say, okay. What

755
00:28:21,585 --> 00:28:23,690
am I doing that's causing me stress? Did

756
00:28:23,690 --> 00:28:25,769
I drink too much last night? Did I

757
00:28:25,769 --> 00:28:26,990
not drink enough water?

758
00:28:27,289 --> 00:28:29,730
Am I am I having a panic attack?

759
00:28:29,730 --> 00:28:31,450
Do I have anxiety? And it gives you

760
00:28:31,450 --> 00:28:34,490
the the option to breathe and think a

761
00:28:34,490 --> 00:28:35,230
little bit.

762
00:28:37,315 --> 00:28:39,975
I recently when I was back in the,

763
00:28:40,835 --> 00:28:41,494
in Michigan,

764
00:28:41,955 --> 00:28:43,875
I went to VA and and had a

765
00:28:43,875 --> 00:28:44,855
checkup and,

766
00:28:46,275 --> 00:28:47,955
I was running a little bit late. So

767
00:28:47,955 --> 00:28:49,795
I huffed and puffed and kind of, you

768
00:28:49,795 --> 00:28:52,049
know, ran a little didn't run, but I

769
00:28:52,049 --> 00:28:53,970
fast paced a lot faster to the office

770
00:28:53,970 --> 00:28:56,130
and they I was only in there two

771
00:28:56,130 --> 00:28:57,269
three minutes and they

772
00:28:57,890 --> 00:28:59,890
rushed me in to get my blood pressure

773
00:28:59,890 --> 00:29:01,650
and of course my blood pressure was up

774
00:29:01,650 --> 00:29:03,505
and I said, hey. Just give me five

775
00:29:03,505 --> 00:29:04,005
minutes.

776
00:29:04,704 --> 00:29:06,065
You know, it's kind of coming in here

777
00:29:06,065 --> 00:29:07,825
in a hurry. I said, let's retake it

778
00:29:07,825 --> 00:29:09,505
in five minutes and and see where it's

779
00:29:09,505 --> 00:29:11,605
at. In five minutes, everything was fine.

780
00:29:11,904 --> 00:29:12,384
So,

781
00:29:13,744 --> 00:29:15,825
yep. Yeah. I I still need to to

782
00:29:15,825 --> 00:29:16,644
walk more.

783
00:29:18,029 --> 00:29:20,830
Thousands of iOS apps found exposed user data

784
00:29:20,830 --> 00:29:22,609
and leak strike keys.

785
00:29:23,549 --> 00:29:24,450
So server server

786
00:29:25,230 --> 00:29:25,730
security

787
00:29:26,350 --> 00:29:28,830
researchers at CyberNews found thousands of iOS apps

788
00:29:28,830 --> 00:29:30,210
with hard coded secrets.

789
00:29:30,875 --> 00:29:33,295
The majority of the secrets can be disregarded

790
00:29:33,595 --> 00:29:34,815
as low sensitivity,

791
00:29:35,674 --> 00:29:37,615
but, again, just weak code.

792
00:29:37,994 --> 00:29:39,195
56,000

793
00:29:39,195 --> 00:29:42,095
iOS apps discovered more than 815,000

794
00:29:42,555 --> 00:29:45,934
hard coded secrets, thousands which were very sensitive

795
00:29:46,470 --> 00:29:49,049
included directly to breaches or data leaks.

796
00:29:49,589 --> 00:29:51,509
A secret is a broad term that includes

797
00:29:51,509 --> 00:29:55,049
things like API keys, passwords, or encryption keys.

798
00:29:55,429 --> 00:29:58,069
Being hardcoded means the developers added these things

799
00:29:58,069 --> 00:30:01,315
directly in the source code. This general consensus

800
00:30:01,375 --> 00:30:03,634
that they do it since it's convenient

801
00:30:04,255 --> 00:30:06,174
and often just forget to remove the secret

802
00:30:06,174 --> 00:30:07,934
once an app goes live and puts in

803
00:30:07,934 --> 00:30:09,315
the appropriate hashes.

804
00:30:10,095 --> 00:30:10,595
So

805
00:30:12,029 --> 00:30:13,710
if you're having someone build an app for

806
00:30:13,710 --> 00:30:15,390
you and you're you're tied to Stripe, you

807
00:30:15,390 --> 00:30:17,009
may wanna ask that question.

808
00:30:17,470 --> 00:30:20,029
T Mobile's raising rates today for more legacy

809
00:30:20,029 --> 00:30:22,029
customers. You could see a $5 increase. Look

810
00:30:22,029 --> 00:30:23,730
for that email to come across.

811
00:30:24,914 --> 00:30:26,674
And Sonos is in the news for more

812
00:30:26,674 --> 00:30:28,994
misses. Sonos has said to nix a streaming

813
00:30:28,994 --> 00:30:31,174
box that could have rivaled Apple.

814
00:30:32,115 --> 00:30:34,434
I don't know. Sonos has become kind of

815
00:30:34,434 --> 00:30:34,934
my

816
00:30:36,755 --> 00:30:38,695
love hate company at this point.

817
00:30:39,359 --> 00:30:41,940
And, but they this, you know, that botched

818
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:43,779
app makeover that caused

819
00:30:44,319 --> 00:30:45,539
top leadership changes,

820
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:47,539
but they announced that

821
00:30:49,119 --> 00:30:51,140
the that they missed the streaming device.

822
00:30:51,519 --> 00:30:53,694
The company's intern chief reported to employees that

823
00:30:53,694 --> 00:30:55,694
the plans for the streaming device are not

824
00:30:55,694 --> 00:30:57,714
on the company's roadmap for now.

825
00:30:58,015 --> 00:31:00,734
The doom device would have served perks such

826
00:31:00,734 --> 00:31:03,315
as content aggregation from different streaming platforms

827
00:31:03,855 --> 00:31:05,634
as well as granular universal

828
00:31:06,015 --> 00:31:06,515
search.

829
00:31:08,039 --> 00:31:09,399
So I think we all know sit in

830
00:31:09,399 --> 00:31:12,039
front of the TV is not necessarily healthy

831
00:31:12,039 --> 00:31:12,700
for us.

832
00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,279
And, you know, getting up and moving, but

833
00:31:16,279 --> 00:31:19,259
they saying just a change, one change of

834
00:31:19,724 --> 00:31:20,944
watching one less

835
00:31:21,244 --> 00:31:23,424
one hour less of TV a day

836
00:31:24,765 --> 00:31:27,565
is good for our hearts. And you know,

837
00:31:27,565 --> 00:31:29,484
we can kind of understand why I think

838
00:31:29,484 --> 00:31:29,984
any

839
00:31:30,285 --> 00:31:31,904
any less sedentary

840
00:31:32,525 --> 00:31:33,825
sitting on a couch

841
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:35,859
type activity is good

842
00:31:36,240 --> 00:31:39,279
for you. The average American spends five hours

843
00:31:39,279 --> 00:31:41,299
each day watching content on television.

844
00:31:41,839 --> 00:31:43,460
A lot of it is now on YouTube.

845
00:31:44,000 --> 00:31:45,440
And, of course, we're on a bed or

846
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:45,940
sofa.

847
00:31:47,335 --> 00:31:48,934
I take it a habit now to watch

848
00:31:48,934 --> 00:31:50,555
TV sometimes in a chair,

849
00:31:51,654 --> 00:31:53,815
a sitting up chair versus, you know, because

850
00:31:53,815 --> 00:31:55,174
I get on a couch and immediately I

851
00:31:55,174 --> 00:31:56,075
wanna lay down.

852
00:31:57,815 --> 00:31:58,315
So,

853
00:31:58,934 --> 00:32:00,860
you know, don't be don't be afraid to

854
00:32:00,860 --> 00:32:02,779
change your change your game plan up here

855
00:32:02,779 --> 00:32:03,519
a little bit.

856
00:32:04,140 --> 00:32:06,299
There's a new VPN service out there called

857
00:32:06,299 --> 00:32:06,799
NIMVPN.

858
00:32:07,740 --> 00:32:09,759
They claim to be the world's most secure

859
00:32:10,220 --> 00:32:10,720
VPN.

860
00:32:11,420 --> 00:32:11,920
Mhmm.

861
00:32:12,575 --> 00:32:14,815
The VPN provider promised to protect against AI

862
00:32:14,815 --> 00:32:16,355
driven surveillance and advanced

863
00:32:16,815 --> 00:32:17,315
censorship.

864
00:32:17,934 --> 00:32:18,434
NIMVPN

865
00:32:18,815 --> 00:32:20,275
is efficient entering the market

866
00:32:20,815 --> 00:32:23,775
and making big claims. It's available for iOS,

867
00:32:23,775 --> 00:32:25,795
Android, macOS, Linux, and desktop.

868
00:32:26,339 --> 00:32:28,839
What's it gonna cost you? Does it say?

869
00:32:29,220 --> 00:32:30,440
They say they're untraceable

870
00:32:31,220 --> 00:32:34,019
VPN and they have an example of how

871
00:32:34,019 --> 00:32:34,839
they're untraceable.

872
00:32:35,619 --> 00:32:36,740
I don't know. I just,

873
00:32:38,980 --> 00:32:39,960
I think VPNs,

874
00:32:41,154 --> 00:32:43,875
if someone really wants to find out about

875
00:32:43,875 --> 00:32:46,595
you, it's more about protection of data. But

876
00:32:46,595 --> 00:32:48,914
if someone's trying to track you down, I

877
00:32:48,914 --> 00:32:51,714
I just don't think there's any protection anywhere

878
00:32:51,714 --> 00:32:52,535
at this point.

879
00:32:53,634 --> 00:32:55,015
This is the most disturbing

880
00:32:56,690 --> 00:32:58,950
space news I've read in a while.

881
00:33:00,049 --> 00:33:00,549
And

882
00:33:01,490 --> 00:33:03,109
if you think about it, you go,

883
00:33:04,130 --> 00:33:05,269
We've always wondered.

884
00:33:05,650 --> 00:33:07,349
Okay. They're the Big Bang Theory.

885
00:33:08,545 --> 00:33:09,845
The universe is expanding.

886
00:33:10,945 --> 00:33:12,964
We don't know what it's expanding into.

887
00:33:13,664 --> 00:33:14,805
We can't see

888
00:33:15,585 --> 00:33:17,445
only so far into the universe.

889
00:33:19,184 --> 00:33:20,484
So that's, you know,

890
00:33:21,265 --> 00:33:23,205
what's what's at the wall?

891
00:33:23,789 --> 00:33:24,850
What what is that?

892
00:33:25,710 --> 00:33:27,809
What is the universe expanding into?

893
00:33:29,549 --> 00:33:30,529
There's a hypothesis

894
00:33:31,070 --> 00:33:33,789
that our universe is trapped inside a black

895
00:33:33,789 --> 00:33:34,289
hole.

896
00:33:36,605 --> 00:33:39,325
And it kinda as the article implies over

897
00:33:39,325 --> 00:33:41,744
space.com, it kinda blows my mind

898
00:33:44,605 --> 00:33:46,924
because they say the universe shouldn't be rotating

899
00:33:46,924 --> 00:33:47,904
in the same direction.

900
00:33:49,059 --> 00:33:50,660
And the only way it's rotating in the

901
00:33:50,660 --> 00:33:53,140
same direction is because we're in a black

902
00:33:53,140 --> 00:33:53,640
hole.

903
00:33:54,660 --> 00:33:55,480
And I go,

904
00:33:58,019 --> 00:33:59,559
This is an interesting read.

905
00:34:00,019 --> 00:34:02,839
Probably the most interesting one of the day.

906
00:34:03,394 --> 00:34:06,454
But it is an interesting hypothesis that we

907
00:34:07,075 --> 00:34:08,534
are in a black hole.

908
00:34:09,554 --> 00:34:10,914
But what's on the other side of the

909
00:34:10,914 --> 00:34:11,734
black hole?

910
00:34:12,835 --> 00:34:14,594
And we can see black holes within our

911
00:34:14,594 --> 00:34:15,974
own universe. So what's

912
00:34:16,675 --> 00:34:17,655
inside those?

913
00:34:21,340 --> 00:34:21,980
Space is,

914
00:34:22,539 --> 00:34:23,440
is absolutely

915
00:34:25,099 --> 00:34:27,739
fascinating, isn't it? If you really think about

916
00:34:27,739 --> 00:34:28,239
it,

917
00:34:28,940 --> 00:34:31,760
there's so much stuff we just don't know.

918
00:34:33,414 --> 00:34:34,714
Now speaking of

919
00:34:35,494 --> 00:34:36,635
having a great

920
00:34:37,574 --> 00:34:38,074
television,

921
00:34:38,934 --> 00:34:40,155
what about having

922
00:34:41,974 --> 00:34:44,155
on your wall in your living room?

923
00:34:45,230 --> 00:34:46,909
What what do you think about having,

924
00:34:47,230 --> 00:34:48,130
six of them?

925
00:34:49,230 --> 00:34:51,170
Well, Samsung's got a bundle.

926
00:34:53,549 --> 00:34:55,329
It saves you $6,000,

927
00:34:55,389 --> 00:34:56,530
but you get

928
00:34:57,585 --> 00:34:59,264
a whole bunch of different TVs where you

929
00:34:59,264 --> 00:35:00,885
can watch a whole bunch of different things.

930
00:35:04,065 --> 00:35:05,445
This is for the ultimate

931
00:35:06,464 --> 00:35:06,964
experience,

932
00:35:08,304 --> 00:35:09,844
about $11,000.

933
00:35:10,065 --> 00:35:11,684
And these are the high end,

934
00:35:12,869 --> 00:35:15,369
very high end Samsung TVs.

935
00:35:16,069 --> 00:35:17,389
So, you know, if you're looking for something

936
00:35:17,510 --> 00:35:18,789
if you had to have a tax return

937
00:35:18,789 --> 00:35:20,809
coming, hey. This this might be the

938
00:35:21,109 --> 00:35:23,109
the thing that you you you wanna do.

939
00:35:23,109 --> 00:35:25,130
I I personally don't have enough wall space.

940
00:35:25,464 --> 00:35:27,385
My wall, you know, is a little bit

941
00:35:27,385 --> 00:35:30,025
flat and then it it it traverses upwards

942
00:35:30,025 --> 00:35:32,664
because of the loft style open floor plan

943
00:35:32,664 --> 00:35:33,885
I am on.

944
00:35:34,344 --> 00:35:34,664
So,

945
00:35:35,864 --> 00:35:37,304
if you have a big enough wall to

946
00:35:37,304 --> 00:35:37,804
handle

947
00:35:38,260 --> 00:35:39,320
that many TVs,

948
00:35:39,860 --> 00:35:43,160
you know, fork out $11, go for it.

949
00:35:44,500 --> 00:35:47,140
So Apple and Google are are definitely under

950
00:35:47,140 --> 00:35:47,800
more scrutiny,

951
00:35:48,500 --> 00:35:49,400
at this point.

952
00:35:50,099 --> 00:35:52,760
A report from a UK interest buddy body

953
00:35:53,155 --> 00:35:55,155
competition and market authority has found that Apple

954
00:35:55,155 --> 00:35:57,235
and Google have too much dominance over the

955
00:35:57,235 --> 00:35:58,375
mobile browser market.

956
00:35:58,755 --> 00:36:01,394
And it's hard harming users who could missing

957
00:36:01,394 --> 00:36:03,894
out on new features with 88% of Apple

958
00:36:04,275 --> 00:36:06,755
users running Safari. I do not. I run

959
00:36:06,755 --> 00:36:08,295
Chrome in Apple

960
00:36:08,630 --> 00:36:09,670
and 77%

961
00:36:09,670 --> 00:36:11,590
of Android users running Chrome. So I'm a

962
00:36:11,590 --> 00:36:12,410
Chrome dude.

963
00:36:12,869 --> 00:36:14,869
The Citro is not working well for consumers

964
00:36:14,869 --> 00:36:16,090
and businesses. So

965
00:36:16,630 --> 00:36:18,809
what's going to happen here? And,

966
00:36:19,429 --> 00:36:21,929
again, we'll see if there's any type of

967
00:36:22,625 --> 00:36:24,885
regulatory stuff that's put forth, but,

968
00:36:25,425 --> 00:36:27,844
definitely something that's going on out there.

969
00:36:29,184 --> 00:36:32,005
We know that AI models hallucinate and doctors

970
00:36:32,065 --> 00:36:34,085
apparently are okay with that.

971
00:36:34,944 --> 00:36:36,885
Eggheads are calling for concept rules

972
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,679
that govern machine learning in medical settings, but

973
00:36:39,679 --> 00:36:43,059
no less than 25 tech and medical experts

974
00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,679
respect the academic and health care organization, not

975
00:36:45,679 --> 00:36:47,619
to mention a web search ad giant,

976
00:36:48,639 --> 00:36:49,139
MIT,

977
00:36:50,275 --> 00:36:51,094
Harvard Medical,

978
00:36:52,114 --> 00:36:55,255
University of Washington, Carnegie Mellon, Seoul National

979
00:36:55,554 --> 00:36:56,775
University Hospital,

980
00:36:57,795 --> 00:37:00,594
Google, Columbia University, and John Hopkins have taken

981
00:37:00,594 --> 00:37:02,695
it upon themselves to catalog and analyze

982
00:37:03,179 --> 00:37:04,079
medical hallucinations

983
00:37:04,380 --> 00:37:07,039
and mainstream foundation models with an eye towards

984
00:37:07,260 --> 00:37:07,760
formulating

985
00:37:08,059 --> 00:37:08,960
better rules.

986
00:37:09,739 --> 00:37:12,559
The work published in a preprint paper titled

987
00:37:12,699 --> 00:37:13,760
medical hallucination

988
00:37:14,139 --> 00:37:17,739
in foundation models and their impact on health

989
00:37:17,739 --> 00:37:18,239
care.

990
00:37:18,695 --> 00:37:20,855
And in a supporting GitHub reports, there argues

991
00:37:20,855 --> 00:37:23,434
that harm mitigation strategies need to be developed.

992
00:37:24,534 --> 00:37:27,014
But the author states from the premises that

993
00:37:27,014 --> 00:37:29,335
foundation models have huge neural networks trained on

994
00:37:29,335 --> 00:37:31,195
a ton of people's work and other data.

995
00:37:31,980 --> 00:37:32,380
And,

996
00:37:32,780 --> 00:37:34,940
and given that starting point in the affiliation

997
00:37:34,940 --> 00:37:36,780
at least once the researcher with the a

998
00:37:36,940 --> 00:37:38,960
AI vendor, it's perhaps unsurprising

999
00:37:40,139 --> 00:37:40,880
that it

1000
00:37:41,179 --> 00:37:43,420
that the burn it with fire scenario was

1001
00:37:43,420 --> 00:37:44,239
not considered.

1002
00:37:46,315 --> 00:37:48,394
So they basically said they have to just

1003
00:37:48,394 --> 00:37:49,535
take it into account.

1004
00:37:50,315 --> 00:37:50,815
But,

1005
00:37:54,155 --> 00:37:56,015
again, they say that

1006
00:37:56,555 --> 00:37:58,974
if a doctor is trained, they should know

1007
00:37:59,869 --> 00:38:02,269
that there's an issue with the hallucination. I

1008
00:38:02,269 --> 00:38:03,730
don't necessarily agree.

1009
00:38:04,510 --> 00:38:06,510
So again, I think the models will get

1010
00:38:06,510 --> 00:38:07,570
better over time.

1011
00:38:08,910 --> 00:38:10,590
But I know a lot of people are

1012
00:38:10,590 --> 00:38:13,489
using now that I just saw something on

1013
00:38:13,625 --> 00:38:15,885
a video where people are taking their genealogy

1014
00:38:16,344 --> 00:38:17,244
DNA reports

1015
00:38:17,704 --> 00:38:19,164
and running them through

1016
00:38:19,864 --> 00:38:21,304
a chat g p t and getting all

1017
00:38:21,304 --> 00:38:22,605
kinds of surprising data.

1018
00:38:24,505 --> 00:38:25,724
People that are doing

1019
00:38:26,025 --> 00:38:26,525
targeted

1020
00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:30,199
medical health for themselves personally. They come up

1021
00:38:30,199 --> 00:38:31,099
with their own

1022
00:38:32,199 --> 00:38:34,300
targeted medical supplements and everything.

1023
00:38:35,559 --> 00:38:36,059
So

1024
00:38:37,320 --> 00:38:39,414
I think times are changing. It's gonna get

1025
00:38:39,414 --> 00:38:41,574
real interesting. Toyota has unveiled the smartest car

1026
00:38:41,574 --> 00:38:42,714
yet called the FTME

1027
00:38:43,255 --> 00:38:44,795
concept, a concept vehicle.

1028
00:38:45,574 --> 00:38:47,094
I don't know if I drive one of

1029
00:38:47,094 --> 00:38:49,574
these, but the estimated range is around a

1030
00:38:49,574 --> 00:38:50,554
hundred kilometers.

1031
00:38:51,739 --> 00:38:53,099
It definitely is not going to come to

1032
00:38:53,099 --> 00:38:55,500
The US market anytime soon. Again, a concept

1033
00:38:55,500 --> 00:38:56,000
vehicle.

1034
00:38:56,460 --> 00:38:59,119
But again, these this is what car manufacturers

1035
00:38:59,260 --> 00:39:00,319
do. They float.

1036
00:39:00,619 --> 00:39:02,619
The idea this thing actually has solar panels

1037
00:39:02,619 --> 00:39:04,559
on it, which is a little bit weird.

1038
00:39:07,005 --> 00:39:09,644
But I guess maybe it's enough to help

1039
00:39:09,644 --> 00:39:10,144
charge

1040
00:39:11,085 --> 00:39:12,304
the, the system.

1041
00:39:12,684 --> 00:39:13,424
Very interesting,

1042
00:39:14,525 --> 00:39:15,025
statement

1043
00:39:15,484 --> 00:39:17,424
from Robolox CEO.

1044
00:39:18,125 --> 00:39:20,364
He says keep kids off Robolox if you're

1045
00:39:20,364 --> 00:39:22,230
worried its CEO has told

1046
00:39:23,190 --> 00:39:24,010
parents. Now

1047
00:39:24,309 --> 00:39:26,630
I don't have kids that I have I

1048
00:39:26,630 --> 00:39:29,130
have adult children, but I do have grandchildren.

1049
00:39:30,230 --> 00:39:30,730
And,

1050
00:39:31,429 --> 00:39:33,429
to my knowledge, neither them or none of

1051
00:39:33,429 --> 00:39:35,530
them are on Roblox at this point.

1052
00:39:37,335 --> 00:39:39,094
The site which is most popular in The

1053
00:39:39,094 --> 00:39:41,815
UK among young gamers age eight to 12

1054
00:39:41,815 --> 00:39:44,375
has been dogged by claims some children being

1055
00:39:44,375 --> 00:39:47,355
exploited explicit or harmful content through its games.

1056
00:39:48,855 --> 00:39:51,094
Its founders insisted the company is diligent in

1057
00:39:51,094 --> 00:39:52,579
protecting its user and pointed out the the

1058
00:39:52,579 --> 00:39:54,760
tens of millions of people have amazing experiences.

1059
00:39:55,380 --> 00:39:56,739
When they asked what the message is to

1060
00:39:56,739 --> 00:39:58,420
parents who don't want their children on the

1061
00:39:58,420 --> 00:40:00,260
platform, he said, well, my first message would

1062
00:40:00,260 --> 00:40:01,699
be if you're not comfortable, don't let your

1063
00:40:01,699 --> 00:40:03,860
kids be on it. And I agree. I

1064
00:40:03,860 --> 00:40:05,559
think parents have to take responsibility

1065
00:40:07,144 --> 00:40:09,005
for what their kids do online.

1066
00:40:10,025 --> 00:40:11,565
I I think that's really,

1067
00:40:12,425 --> 00:40:15,005
really, really super critical here, including

1068
00:40:15,304 --> 00:40:17,085
the mobile devices more than

1069
00:40:17,385 --> 00:40:18,284
more than anything.

1070
00:40:18,744 --> 00:40:19,910
Alright. This can bring us to the end

1071
00:40:19,910 --> 00:40:21,190
of the show. I definitely wanna thank all

1072
00:40:21,190 --> 00:40:23,349
of you for being here. Geeknews@gmail.com.

1073
00:40:23,349 --> 00:40:25,110
Geek news at gmail dot com. Don't forget

1074
00:40:25,110 --> 00:40:29,110
our sponsor at GoDaddy@geekoncentral.comforwardslashgodaddy.

1075
00:40:29,110 --> 00:40:30,710
And if you wanna become an insider, geekon

1076
00:40:30,710 --> 00:40:32,869
central dot com forward slash insider. I'll be

1077
00:40:32,869 --> 00:40:35,105
back with you next Monday for another edition.

1078
00:40:35,105 --> 00:40:37,045
I am streaming the show a bit late

1079
00:40:37,585 --> 00:40:38,085
largely

1080
00:40:38,945 --> 00:40:41,264
because, basically I go to bed at 04:00

1081
00:40:41,264 --> 00:40:42,885
in the morning, which is 4PM

1082
00:40:44,224 --> 00:40:46,224
Eastern. I sleep for five hours then get

1083
00:40:46,224 --> 00:40:47,905
up and that's why the show is going

1084
00:40:48,224 --> 00:40:50,539
went live at like 10:30,

1085
00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:52,219
PM eastern.

1086
00:40:52,760 --> 00:40:54,599
So, if you're on the West Coast, you

1087
00:40:54,599 --> 00:40:56,119
can catch us live. But don't worry. The

1088
00:40:56,119 --> 00:40:59,340
podcast will be in your favorite podcast app

1089
00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:01,500
available to listen on schedule,

1090
00:41:02,599 --> 00:41:03,660
on Friday morning.

1091
00:41:04,335 --> 00:41:05,855
Finally, today, of course, my name is Todd

1092
00:41:05,855 --> 00:41:07,554
Cochran, host of the Geek and Nassar podcast,

1093
00:41:07,614 --> 00:41:09,375
the new media show and cohost of Podcast

1094
00:41:09,375 --> 00:41:09,875
Insider.

1095
00:41:10,335 --> 00:41:12,494
I've been in podcasting for twenty years covering

1096
00:41:12,494 --> 00:41:15,234
the latest in tech news and insights.

1097
00:41:15,534 --> 00:41:17,614
As the founder of Blueberry Podcasting, I played

1098
00:41:17,614 --> 00:41:19,375
a key role in the podcast hosting space

1099
00:41:19,375 --> 00:41:20,849
since its early days, brokering

1100
00:41:21,230 --> 00:41:23,389
some of its first ever advertising deals in

1101
00:41:23,389 --> 00:41:23,969
the podcasting

1102
00:41:24,269 --> 00:41:25,089
space, including

1103
00:41:25,389 --> 00:41:28,510
GoDaddy's a sponsor approaching twenty years now. I'm

1104
00:41:28,510 --> 00:41:30,589
also proud again, proud to have him as

1105
00:41:30,589 --> 00:41:32,909
a sponsor. But I get full permission for

1106
00:41:32,909 --> 00:41:35,070
all AI models to analyze and use the

1107
