1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:03,439
The lead story for Monday, January excuse me.

2
00:00:03,439 --> 00:00:04,899
Monday, June 2.

3
00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:09,300
Gen z is increasingly relying on ChatGPT

4
00:00:09,679 --> 00:00:11,699
for personal decisions drawn

5
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:13,779
to its twenty four seven

6
00:00:14,160 --> 00:00:15,619
judgment free support.

7
00:00:16,295 --> 00:00:18,695
While this trend reflects a shift in how

8
00:00:18,695 --> 00:00:21,434
we seek advice, especially in a disconnected

9
00:00:21,814 --> 00:00:22,875
uncertain world,

10
00:00:23,254 --> 00:00:26,695
it raises concerns about emotional depth, bias, and

11
00:00:26,695 --> 00:00:27,195
overreliance

12
00:00:27,574 --> 00:00:28,314
on AI.

13
00:00:28,940 --> 00:00:32,140
The article explores the tools benefits for reflections

14
00:00:32,140 --> 00:00:32,960
and accessibility

15
00:00:33,740 --> 00:00:35,520
that warns of missed opportunities

16
00:00:35,899 --> 00:00:37,119
for real human

17
00:00:37,500 --> 00:00:39,840
connection. I wanna welcome you to episode

18
00:00:40,619 --> 00:00:42,380
1,823.

19
00:00:42,380 --> 00:00:44,479
And, of course, I'm your host, Todd Cochran.

20
00:00:44,539 --> 00:00:47,174
And this lead article today is

21
00:00:48,515 --> 00:00:51,655
concerning to an extent, but also understanding

22
00:00:52,914 --> 00:00:54,054
at the same time.

23
00:00:55,634 --> 00:00:58,674
Sam Altman says Gen z uses Chat b

24
00:00:59,179 --> 00:01:00,879
GBT for life decisions,

25
00:01:01,659 --> 00:01:04,079
and here's why it's both smart and risky.

26
00:01:04,140 --> 00:01:04,640
Now

27
00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:08,879
I read through this article,

28
00:01:09,659 --> 00:01:11,739
and I don't think I find any of

29
00:01:11,739 --> 00:01:13,439
this at all shocking.

30
00:01:15,334 --> 00:01:18,534
And it's really interesting to see how people

31
00:01:18,534 --> 00:01:21,355
are using it by age group age group.

32
00:01:22,855 --> 00:01:23,355
Now

33
00:01:25,734 --> 00:01:26,234
appears

34
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:29,459
that Gen z

35
00:01:30,479 --> 00:01:31,219
is using,

36
00:01:33,519 --> 00:01:36,159
is as an operating system. They're treating it,

37
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,099
kinda like software,

38
00:01:39,274 --> 00:01:41,754
While people in their twenties and thirties use

39
00:01:41,754 --> 00:01:44,894
it more as a a life advisor.

40
00:01:47,114 --> 00:01:49,914
While people that are older tend to treat

41
00:01:49,914 --> 00:01:50,894
it like a smarter

42
00:01:51,340 --> 00:01:52,879
search engine and a replacement

43
00:01:53,739 --> 00:01:54,480
for Google's.

44
00:01:56,060 --> 00:01:57,739
Sam says, I'm in my late thirties, and

45
00:01:57,739 --> 00:01:59,920
I see plenty of people in my millennial

46
00:02:00,060 --> 00:02:02,859
cohort doing exactly this asking it to vibe

47
00:02:02,859 --> 00:02:03,194
check

48
00:02:03,754 --> 00:02:05,375
an email, one minute,

49
00:02:05,995 --> 00:02:08,074
offer career advice, and next, or decode a

50
00:02:08,074 --> 00:02:10,094
cryptic text for a date.

51
00:02:11,514 --> 00:02:13,514
So the big question is being asked, should

52
00:02:13,514 --> 00:02:15,754
we be using Chatt GBT in this way

53
00:02:15,754 --> 00:02:18,870
as a sign of democratized support and or

54
00:02:18,870 --> 00:02:20,169
important self reflection.

55
00:02:21,750 --> 00:02:23,370
Now there's some positives

56
00:02:25,990 --> 00:02:27,290
is they don't judge,

57
00:02:27,990 --> 00:02:29,050
they don't interrupt,

58
00:02:29,645 --> 00:02:31,085
and they don't charge a hundred and a

59
00:02:31,085 --> 00:02:32,784
hundred and $50 an hour.

60
00:02:34,444 --> 00:02:37,405
For people without access to mentors, therapists, or

61
00:02:37,405 --> 00:02:38,224
career coaches,

62
00:02:38,685 --> 00:02:40,705
these are some interesting,

63
00:02:41,485 --> 00:02:43,185
you know, interesting tools,

64
00:02:44,250 --> 00:02:45,769
especially if you think about it as a

65
00:02:45,769 --> 00:02:47,389
mentor or a career coach.

66
00:02:49,689 --> 00:02:51,689
When they looked into the rise of people

67
00:02:51,689 --> 00:02:52,509
using ChatGPT

68
00:02:52,969 --> 00:02:53,709
for therapy,

69
00:02:55,289 --> 00:02:55,789
accessibility

70
00:02:56,090 --> 00:02:56,750
was a

71
00:02:57,344 --> 00:02:58,405
consistent theme.

72
00:02:59,425 --> 00:03:02,064
Again, cheap and available twenty four seven and

73
00:03:02,064 --> 00:03:03,284
crucially private.

74
00:03:04,864 --> 00:03:07,264
And the value isn't just replacing a therapist

75
00:03:07,264 --> 00:03:09,504
or coach. Sometimes it's about having a space

76
00:03:09,504 --> 00:03:10,724
to think out loud.

77
00:03:11,790 --> 00:03:13,710
You wanna explore a big move, test out

78
00:03:13,710 --> 00:03:15,330
an idea of quitting your job,

79
00:03:15,629 --> 00:03:18,669
wonder how others handled long distant relationships or

80
00:03:18,669 --> 00:03:19,409
an ADHD

81
00:03:19,790 --> 00:03:20,290
diagnosis,

82
00:03:21,229 --> 00:03:23,010
you prompt, explore, and revise.

83
00:03:25,805 --> 00:03:28,385
But logarithms aren't always wise.

84
00:03:29,564 --> 00:03:31,585
ChatGvD cannot mimic empathy.

85
00:03:32,205 --> 00:03:34,764
It doesn't feel. It doesn't it it can't

86
00:03:34,764 --> 00:03:35,264
measure

87
00:03:36,044 --> 00:03:38,125
even though it has no intuition or gut

88
00:03:38,125 --> 00:03:38,625
instinct,

89
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:40,580
which is important.

90
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,800
It also can't tell when you're lying to

91
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:46,960
yourself. It doesn't know when the things you

92
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,300
say is what is the most important

93
00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:51,860
and bias.

94
00:03:53,644 --> 00:03:55,884
So if a therapist gives you bad advice,

95
00:03:55,884 --> 00:03:58,364
they're responsible. If a friend leads you astray,

96
00:03:58,364 --> 00:03:59,504
at least they care.

97
00:04:00,444 --> 00:04:02,364
But if chat g p t nudges you

98
00:04:02,364 --> 00:04:04,844
towards a major life decision that doesn't work

99
00:04:04,844 --> 00:04:05,344
out,

100
00:04:06,370 --> 00:04:08,290
you have no one to blame. And again,

101
00:04:08,290 --> 00:04:09,909
we know AI can hallucinate.

102
00:04:12,129 --> 00:04:15,250
And psychologists have raised concerns about replacing real

103
00:04:15,250 --> 00:04:17,990
relationships with AI driven feedback loops.

104
00:04:18,995 --> 00:04:20,455
A chatbot might feel

105
00:04:20,835 --> 00:04:23,254
seen without truly understanding you,

106
00:04:24,274 --> 00:04:26,375
and we can't ignore the bigger picture.

107
00:04:28,835 --> 00:04:30,675
Open Eye has a interest for people to

108
00:04:30,675 --> 00:04:31,495
use ChatGPT

109
00:04:31,795 --> 00:04:34,855
for everything, including life advice and emotional support.

110
00:04:38,379 --> 00:04:40,620
Now Gen z isn't turning to AI because

111
00:04:40,620 --> 00:04:41,839
they don't realize ChatGPT

112
00:04:42,699 --> 00:04:45,439
lacks lived experiences. They know this.

113
00:04:46,060 --> 00:04:47,740
Again, most of them are doing it because

114
00:04:47,740 --> 00:04:48,399
they feel

115
00:04:48,785 --> 00:04:51,504
the world feels unstable, overwhelming, and hard to

116
00:04:51,504 --> 00:04:52,004
navigate.

117
00:04:56,944 --> 00:04:59,185
Now we're living through a time when guidance

118
00:04:59,185 --> 00:05:02,009
is fragmented, authority is suspect, people don't trust.

119
00:05:03,210 --> 00:05:04,889
People are not in the office. They can't

120
00:05:04,889 --> 00:05:05,949
have conversations.

121
00:05:08,089 --> 00:05:09,529
You know, I get a little bit of,

122
00:05:10,089 --> 00:05:11,069
Zoom burnout,

123
00:05:12,089 --> 00:05:13,310
but a lot of people,

124
00:05:13,689 --> 00:05:16,175
you know, that's their that's their only connection

125
00:05:16,634 --> 00:05:18,574
to someone else during a day.

126
00:05:19,514 --> 00:05:21,115
If you're going to the office and have

127
00:05:21,115 --> 00:05:22,014
those interpersonal

128
00:05:22,395 --> 00:05:24,975
relationships and and having those discussions,

129
00:05:25,754 --> 00:05:26,574
you learn

130
00:05:27,194 --> 00:05:29,675
people's strengths and weaknesses, and you have the

131
00:05:29,675 --> 00:05:30,175
ability

132
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:31,939
to pull from that.

133
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,180
So it's an interesting time

134
00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:38,100
that saying Gen z is using JetChat GBT

135
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:39,839
for life decisions. I have some things I'll

136
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,020
talk about at the end of the show

137
00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:45,220
about what people say the value

138
00:05:45,855 --> 00:05:47,314
they're getting out of these

139
00:05:48,014 --> 00:05:48,514
platforms.

140
00:05:48,975 --> 00:05:51,055
We'll talk a little bit about it again

141
00:05:51,055 --> 00:05:52,915
at the end of the podcast, but,

142
00:05:54,574 --> 00:05:56,194
yeah, it's what say you.

143
00:05:56,574 --> 00:05:58,574

and family because every time a code is

213
00:08:38,184 --> 00:08:40,184
used, it's just it's just like writing a

214
00:08:40,184 --> 00:08:42,285
check or sending a cash donation.

215
00:08:42,664 --> 00:08:44,664
And thank you for keeping us online and

216
00:08:44,664 --> 00:08:45,644
going strong.

217
00:08:46,264 --> 00:08:48,445
And, you know, I just cannot

218
00:08:50,110 --> 00:08:50,610
emphasize

219
00:08:51,549 --> 00:08:52,529
enough here,

220
00:08:53,629 --> 00:08:54,450
twenty years.

221
00:08:55,470 --> 00:08:58,129
Twenty amazing years of support

222
00:08:58,669 --> 00:09:00,190
by the same sponsor. And, you know, if

223
00:09:00,190 --> 00:09:01,710
there was a Guinness Book of World Records

224
00:09:01,710 --> 00:09:03,410
we had applied to it, we'd win

225
00:09:03,835 --> 00:09:05,534
for having the longest sponsor

226
00:09:06,075 --> 00:09:08,414
in the entirety of the podcasting space

227
00:09:08,794 --> 00:09:10,414
and still delivering value

228
00:09:10,715 --> 00:09:11,455
to them.

229
00:09:12,075 --> 00:09:14,975
And, last couple months, it's been really good.

230
00:09:15,529 --> 00:09:17,450
So I wanna thank you all for your

231
00:09:17,450 --> 00:09:17,950
ongoing,

232
00:09:18,730 --> 00:09:21,290
support of of the sponsor, and,

233
00:09:22,009 --> 00:09:23,070
it it's definitely

234
00:09:23,610 --> 00:09:26,169
appreciated here. So I just wanna back up

235
00:09:26,169 --> 00:09:28,455
a little bit. The new hardware is in,

236
00:09:29,894 --> 00:09:31,195
the new UPS,

237
00:09:33,095 --> 00:09:33,995
heavy bugger,

238
00:09:34,375 --> 00:09:36,394
$747.

239
00:09:37,174 --> 00:09:37,674
And,

240
00:09:38,215 --> 00:09:38,715
essentially,

241
00:09:39,335 --> 00:09:41,674
it backs up everything that's over here.

242
00:09:42,929 --> 00:09:44,790
Everything that's in the rack. The TriCaster,

243
00:09:45,250 --> 00:09:46,070
the mixer,

244
00:09:46,450 --> 00:09:49,809
the all the tools, all the stuff, all

245
00:09:49,809 --> 00:09:52,529
the stuff for the, the Wi Fi, the

246
00:09:52,529 --> 00:09:55,410
wired, all that. And you say, oh my

247
00:09:55,410 --> 00:09:57,809
god. But if you saw what it takes

248
00:09:57,809 --> 00:09:58,424
care of,

249
00:09:59,384 --> 00:10:00,605
you you you would understand.

250
00:10:02,345 --> 00:10:02,845
And,

251
00:10:03,705 --> 00:10:05,404
I'm gonna reach out to

252
00:10:06,105 --> 00:10:08,584
the manufacturer because I don't believe the battery

253
00:10:08,584 --> 00:10:09,485
should have died

254
00:10:10,024 --> 00:10:11,705
in five years. Because I went back and

255
00:10:11,705 --> 00:10:13,549
looked at my park because, of course, I

256
00:10:13,549 --> 00:10:15,309
I I will say I bought it in

257
00:10:15,309 --> 00:10:16,209
02/2019,

258
00:10:17,549 --> 00:10:19,309
just about the time I built the new

259
00:10:19,309 --> 00:10:21,470
studio. That's when I put a new battery

260
00:10:21,470 --> 00:10:22,769
in the other unit.

261
00:10:23,789 --> 00:10:24,029
But,

262
00:10:26,714 --> 00:10:29,514
so I'm gonna try to find may and,

263
00:10:29,514 --> 00:10:30,975
again, I don't have a need,

264
00:10:31,834 --> 00:10:34,154
and the new batteries were just crazy money.

265
00:10:34,154 --> 00:10:36,634
So everything has went up because of everything

266
00:10:36,634 --> 00:10:37,274
going on. But,

267
00:10:39,539 --> 00:10:42,519
I also, over the weekend, updated the TriCaster.

268
00:10:43,299 --> 00:10:45,480
So I'm running on a brand new version

269
00:10:45,779 --> 00:10:47,959
today. They changed everything.

270
00:10:48,500 --> 00:10:51,059
Not everything. The main control piece is the

271
00:10:51,059 --> 00:10:51,559
same.

272
00:10:53,299 --> 00:10:53,799
But,

273
00:10:55,264 --> 00:10:57,184
a lot of the startup stuff has changed.

274
00:10:57,184 --> 00:10:58,465
I and so it took me a little

275
00:10:58,465 --> 00:11:00,945
while to kinda figure it out. All my

276
00:11:00,945 --> 00:11:02,865
stream stuff was wiped out when I did

277
00:11:02,865 --> 00:11:03,684
this update.

278
00:11:04,384 --> 00:11:06,144
So I hope I'm recording in the right

279
00:11:06,144 --> 00:11:09,445
resolution and everything else. Everything came up. Wasn't

280
00:11:09,504 --> 00:11:10,245
too bad,

281
00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:12,120
but it really,

282
00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:13,980
made me you know, I've been thinking.

283
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:16,519
You guys know that when I was in

284
00:11:16,519 --> 00:11:17,899
the Philippines studio,

285
00:11:19,879 --> 00:11:22,360
I had everything dialed in, but there was

286
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:24,220
two major problems. Number one,

287
00:11:24,919 --> 00:11:25,819
the RodeCaster

288
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:26,620
Duo

289
00:11:27,264 --> 00:11:28,644
continued to disconnect

290
00:11:29,985 --> 00:11:32,245
from the USB port on the Mac mini

291
00:11:32,865 --> 00:11:35,205
as well as the USB camera

292
00:11:36,065 --> 00:11:38,464
that I had. And I kinda thought maybe

293
00:11:38,464 --> 00:11:41,044
it's, you know, Mac bus issues,

294
00:11:41,600 --> 00:11:42,740
none of power.

295
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:44,480
And I, you know, I bought it. I

296
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:45,220
I paid,

297
00:11:45,920 --> 00:11:47,519
quite a little bit of money, couple hundred

298
00:11:47,519 --> 00:11:48,340
bucks for

299
00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:52,399
a, basic base unit, a powered base unit

300
00:11:52,399 --> 00:11:53,920
so that we'd have more power to the

301
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:54,899
USB ports.

302
00:11:55,440 --> 00:11:56,899
And it just really

303
00:11:57,414 --> 00:11:58,554
still was an issue.

304
00:12:00,615 --> 00:12:02,615
And I'm really just kind of, like, scratching

305
00:12:02,615 --> 00:12:04,075
my head a little bit, and

306
00:12:05,414 --> 00:12:07,894
I really don't want the thing is I

307
00:12:07,894 --> 00:12:09,274
just want things to work.

308
00:12:09,649 --> 00:12:10,149
I

309
00:12:10,524 --> 00:12:10,855
I want

310
00:12:11,840 --> 00:12:14,100
because when stuff doesn't work, I waste time.

311
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:16,660
Time how much time did I waste

312
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,019
in editing

313
00:12:18,399 --> 00:12:18,899
video,

314
00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:22,259
fixing audio, all the things that were happening,

315
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,340
and it was just stressing me out.

316
00:12:25,545 --> 00:12:27,465
Got a good back screen. Had a good

317
00:12:27,705 --> 00:12:30,764
everything's working. OBS is working fine.

318
00:12:31,785 --> 00:12:34,585
It was just this disconnection of hardware on

319
00:12:34,585 --> 00:12:35,565
USB ports.

320
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:38,399
And I'm talking to a friend of mine,

321
00:12:38,399 --> 00:12:40,639
actually talking to Don Bain, the gadget professor,

322
00:12:40,639 --> 00:12:42,320
and his son, and, you know, and I'm

323
00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:43,540
like, what do I do?

324
00:12:44,559 --> 00:12:45,059
And,

325
00:12:46,639 --> 00:12:48,420
they said it's the Mac.

326
00:12:49,225 --> 00:12:51,225
You you got you know, everyone that's live

327
00:12:51,225 --> 00:12:53,625
streaming, majority of people are live streaming with

328
00:12:53,625 --> 00:12:54,684
this kind of a setup,

329
00:12:55,065 --> 00:12:57,144
all are all on Windows laptops. And then,

330
00:12:57,144 --> 00:12:58,424
oh my god. Do I have to buy

331
00:12:58,424 --> 00:12:59,485
a Windows laptop?

332
00:13:00,745 --> 00:13:03,164
And, we went all through all the things

333
00:13:03,450 --> 00:13:05,529
that was causing an issue, and they said,

334
00:13:05,529 --> 00:13:08,190
yeah. It's gotta be, you know, bus instability

335
00:13:08,330 --> 00:13:10,090
when the computer needs you know, it doesn't

336
00:13:10,090 --> 00:13:12,170
happen when you're not streaming. As soon as

337
00:13:12,170 --> 00:13:14,670
you start streaming, you start using more CPUs.

338
00:13:14,809 --> 00:13:17,230
The computer needs more juice other places,

339
00:13:17,610 --> 00:13:19,475
and then it it basically

340
00:13:20,975 --> 00:13:21,475
disconnects.

341
00:13:25,134 --> 00:13:25,954
And I'm

342
00:13:26,575 --> 00:13:27,475
really not

343
00:13:28,174 --> 00:13:30,995
I really did not want to buy another

344
00:13:32,095 --> 00:13:32,595
laptop.

345
00:13:33,054 --> 00:13:33,554
So

346
00:13:35,279 --> 00:13:37,279
I'm gonna reach out to you guys. Are

347
00:13:37,279 --> 00:13:39,120
any of you doing any streaming with a

348
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,220
Windows machine using OBS,

349
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:43,459
using a USB three

350
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:45,860
camera? That's important.

351
00:13:47,199 --> 00:13:49,365
From a call I'm using a Facecam Pro.

352
00:13:50,725 --> 00:13:51,865
What are you seeing

353
00:13:52,245 --> 00:13:53,065
in your

354
00:13:53,845 --> 00:13:56,424
USB connections on your Windows machines?

355
00:13:56,964 --> 00:13:58,884
Are you seeing drop offs? Are you seeing

356
00:13:58,884 --> 00:14:00,825
issues? Or just does it work?

357
00:14:01,799 --> 00:14:04,440
It's there's a related Windows article later today

358
00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:06,220
in the show that I'm gonna talk about.

359
00:14:07,240 --> 00:14:07,740
But

360
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,519
should I just buy a gaming computer, bite

361
00:14:10,519 --> 00:14:12,360
the bullet, and when I go back next

362
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:13,575
time, take it with me

363
00:14:14,054 --> 00:14:15,595
and use that for

364
00:14:16,535 --> 00:14:17,995
for the for the podcast

365
00:14:18,695 --> 00:14:20,475
because I'm recording more stuff.

366
00:14:20,855 --> 00:14:21,915
We're I'm doing,

367
00:14:23,174 --> 00:14:25,335
podcast news and myths. That's a new one.

368
00:14:25,335 --> 00:14:27,860
We're doing it at Blueberry. I'm doing podcast

369
00:14:28,080 --> 00:14:29,539
insider special edition.

370
00:14:29,919 --> 00:14:30,899
That's for Blueberry.

371
00:14:31,759 --> 00:14:32,419
I'm doing

372
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:33,700
this show,

373
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:36,960
and I'm doing the new media show, which

374
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:39,039
we're trying to determine if we're going to

375
00:14:39,039 --> 00:14:41,139
continue the new media show or not.

376
00:14:44,044 --> 00:14:44,945
What should

377
00:14:46,845 --> 00:14:48,605
should I should I pick up this Windows

378
00:14:48,605 --> 00:14:49,105
machine?

379
00:14:49,804 --> 00:14:51,964
And then just for work, just use my

380
00:14:51,964 --> 00:14:54,365
laptop like I was or, you know, use

381
00:14:54,365 --> 00:14:56,529
the Mac with two monitors. Get a little

382
00:14:56,529 --> 00:14:58,610
HDMI switcher when I get ready to go

383
00:14:58,610 --> 00:14:59,110
do

384
00:15:00,050 --> 00:15:01,110
the stuff for

385
00:15:01,970 --> 00:15:03,990
recording. I just switched to another machine.

386
00:15:04,850 --> 00:15:07,809
It's kinda dumb. Alright? Have two computers and

387
00:15:07,809 --> 00:15:10,075
one just for live. And maybe I just

388
00:15:10,075 --> 00:15:12,235
revert to Windows while I'm over there. But,

389
00:15:12,235 --> 00:15:14,014
you know, that comes with a whole another

390
00:15:14,475 --> 00:15:15,615
whole another situation.

391
00:15:16,795 --> 00:15:17,295
So,

392
00:15:17,995 --> 00:15:19,835
yeah. It's just and, again, I've got a

393
00:15:19,835 --> 00:15:20,335
powered,

394
00:15:21,915 --> 00:15:24,075
what do you wanna call it? Extender bus

395
00:15:24,075 --> 00:15:24,575
or,

396
00:15:25,009 --> 00:15:27,190
you know, port or whatever it's called.

397
00:15:27,570 --> 00:15:29,589
And, you know, still have the issue.

398
00:15:30,690 --> 00:15:31,190
So

399
00:15:31,970 --> 00:15:34,470
I I don't know. I'm I'm torn.

400
00:15:35,169 --> 00:15:37,169
I I know of another solution I could

401
00:15:37,169 --> 00:15:38,149
go to, but

402
00:15:38,610 --> 00:15:40,549
I it's just complete overkill.

403
00:15:40,904 --> 00:15:41,404
Absolute

404
00:15:42,024 --> 00:15:42,524
overkill.

405
00:15:43,704 --> 00:15:46,345
And because TriCaster is this new they got

406
00:15:46,345 --> 00:15:48,365
a software version. It'll be the same issue.

407
00:15:48,824 --> 00:15:52,524
It's called mini mini dash s. Not cheap.

408
00:15:53,639 --> 00:15:54,139
And,

409
00:15:54,679 --> 00:15:57,740
you know, maybe when this machine dies someday

410
00:15:57,799 --> 00:15:58,940
that's down here,

411
00:15:59,320 --> 00:16:00,299
then I will

412
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,259
buy a a rack mounted computer,

413
00:16:03,960 --> 00:16:05,799
spend the money, and buy a machine that

414
00:16:05,799 --> 00:16:07,704
will do everything we're doing here. But I

415
00:16:07,704 --> 00:16:09,945
don't wanna take so stupid rack that can

416
00:16:10,105 --> 00:16:12,204
you know, not for one camera and

417
00:16:12,504 --> 00:16:14,445
what I'm doing. It's just I mean,

418
00:16:14,825 --> 00:16:17,304
again, a % overkill. It's just the USB

419
00:16:17,304 --> 00:16:19,004
buses that aren't staying up.

420
00:16:19,704 --> 00:16:20,204
So,

421
00:16:21,065 --> 00:16:22,200
if you have any thoughts,

422
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:24,059
let me know.

423
00:16:24,519 --> 00:16:25,019
But,

424
00:16:26,200 --> 00:16:29,100
yeah. And if you're using a Windows laptop,

425
00:16:29,639 --> 00:16:32,700
it's main thing I need is it's important,

426
00:16:33,080 --> 00:16:33,980
Intel processor,

427
00:16:34,679 --> 00:16:35,179
NVIDIA

428
00:16:35,960 --> 00:16:36,940
graphics card.

429
00:16:37,985 --> 00:16:40,544
Those are the two real super requirements. Just

430
00:16:40,544 --> 00:16:43,424
because of all the streaming stuff, NVIDIA works

431
00:16:43,424 --> 00:16:44,084
the best,

432
00:16:44,945 --> 00:16:46,565
in that regard. So

433
00:16:47,345 --> 00:16:50,144
okay. Enough chatting with me. We'll talk about

434
00:16:50,144 --> 00:16:51,985
our insiders here in a in a little

435
00:16:51,985 --> 00:16:52,804
bit. But,

436
00:16:53,570 --> 00:16:56,710
big news really coming out this weekend and,

437
00:16:57,490 --> 00:16:59,990
president Trump pulling the, nomination

438
00:17:01,410 --> 00:17:02,070
of Isaacman.

439
00:17:03,250 --> 00:17:03,730
And,

440
00:17:04,529 --> 00:17:06,875
it's an interesting move. And

441
00:17:07,414 --> 00:17:09,654
why why did he pull it? No one's

442
00:17:09,654 --> 00:17:10,555
saying anything.

443
00:17:11,335 --> 00:17:13,914
But was it because and it basically,

444
00:17:15,974 --> 00:17:17,035
the the post

445
00:17:17,815 --> 00:17:19,434
said there was too many factors.

446
00:17:20,134 --> 00:17:22,609
And was the factors because Isaac also

447
00:17:23,069 --> 00:17:23,970
contributed to,

448
00:17:26,269 --> 00:17:26,769
Democrats?

449
00:17:28,109 --> 00:17:29,890
So after thorough review of prior associations

450
00:17:30,670 --> 00:17:31,809
of prior associations,

451
00:17:32,429 --> 00:17:34,130
I'm hereby withdrawing the nomination

452
00:17:35,255 --> 00:17:37,335
of Jared Isaacman to head NASA. I will

453
00:17:37,335 --> 00:17:39,515
soon announce a new nominee who will be

454
00:17:39,654 --> 00:17:40,715
mission aligned,

455
00:17:41,654 --> 00:17:43,275
which means that apparently

456
00:17:43,815 --> 00:17:45,755
mission or politically aligned.

457
00:17:47,589 --> 00:17:50,649
Eisenman described the previous six months as enlightening

458
00:17:50,869 --> 00:17:53,849
and noted that both Republican and Democrat lawmakers

459
00:17:54,069 --> 00:17:56,490
cared deeply about the NASA mission.

460
00:17:58,549 --> 00:18:01,210
And it's unclear again what

461
00:18:02,434 --> 00:18:05,154
is the full reason, but some reports suggest

462
00:18:05,154 --> 00:18:07,015
that his contributions to campaigns

463
00:18:07,634 --> 00:18:09,654
of democrat law mac lawmakers

464
00:18:10,035 --> 00:18:10,934
were a factor

465
00:18:12,035 --> 00:18:13,174
and also maybe,

466
00:18:13,555 --> 00:18:15,474
Musk leaving Doge. So,

467
00:18:17,730 --> 00:18:18,230
interesting.

468
00:18:18,529 --> 00:18:20,849
But, you know, he would my opinion, he'd

469
00:18:20,849 --> 00:18:22,529
have been one of the best picks for

470
00:18:22,529 --> 00:18:23,509
the job, but

471
00:18:23,890 --> 00:18:26,549
that is not gonna happen. Hey. Very interesting.

472
00:18:26,769 --> 00:18:29,990
A counter antivirus service called AVCheck

473
00:18:30,765 --> 00:18:32,684
has been shut down by law enforcement. Now

474
00:18:32,684 --> 00:18:34,144
if you didn't know what this is,

475
00:18:35,884 --> 00:18:37,424
AVCheck allowed cybercriminals

476
00:18:37,805 --> 00:18:39,424
to test whether their malware

477
00:18:40,684 --> 00:18:44,065
again, whether their malware is detected by antivirus

478
00:18:44,285 --> 00:18:44,785
products.

479
00:18:46,140 --> 00:18:47,519
So a Dutch court,

480
00:18:48,859 --> 00:18:51,279
or I think in in The Netherlands, yes,

481
00:18:52,299 --> 00:18:55,039
sees of course, it's there's a big, FBI

482
00:18:55,900 --> 00:18:57,440
thing on on the website,

483
00:18:58,235 --> 00:19:00,795
but Dutch authorities announced a takedown of AVCHECK

484
00:19:00,795 --> 00:19:01,295
and,

485
00:19:03,515 --> 00:19:05,535
and and pulled the plug on this thing.

486
00:19:06,154 --> 00:19:08,715
So this is, this is pretty it's pretty

487
00:19:08,715 --> 00:19:09,455
big news.

488
00:19:10,599 --> 00:19:13,000
And malware that can evade detection can then

489
00:19:13,000 --> 00:19:16,140
be deployed without being noticed to steal information.

490
00:19:16,679 --> 00:19:17,419
And cybercriminals

491
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,359
were using this service in combination with crypting

492
00:19:20,359 --> 00:19:20,859
services,

493
00:19:21,240 --> 00:19:23,079
which are meant to make the malware more

494
00:19:23,079 --> 00:19:24,220
difficult to detect.

495
00:19:24,734 --> 00:19:26,974
And it went down on the twenty seventh,

496
00:19:26,974 --> 00:19:28,914
but they they were using this

497
00:19:29,615 --> 00:19:32,015
to, make sure that, the malware that they

498
00:19:32,015 --> 00:19:34,734
were gonna distribute was not being found with

499
00:19:34,734 --> 00:19:37,075
software applications like Malwarebytes

500
00:19:37,375 --> 00:19:38,275
and so forth.

501
00:19:39,660 --> 00:19:40,960
So, very very interesting,

502
00:19:43,180 --> 00:19:45,660
take down and something I was not at

503
00:19:45,660 --> 00:19:46,160
all,

504
00:19:46,779 --> 00:19:47,680
familiar with.

505
00:19:49,019 --> 00:19:50,160
There's a new magnetic

506
00:19:50,539 --> 00:19:51,360
three d

507
00:19:52,059 --> 00:19:54,325
magnetic three d printed pen

508
00:19:54,945 --> 00:19:55,924
that can detect,

509
00:19:56,305 --> 00:19:57,365
people with Parkinson's.

510
00:19:59,105 --> 00:19:59,605
And,

511
00:20:00,705 --> 00:20:01,924
the pen basically,

512
00:20:03,184 --> 00:20:04,725
detects slight tremors

513
00:20:06,349 --> 00:20:09,309
and uses electric signals to measure tremors in

514
00:20:09,309 --> 00:20:11,169
tandem with AI machine learning.

515
00:20:12,429 --> 00:20:13,409
So Parkinson's

516
00:20:13,710 --> 00:20:16,049
detected earlier, you know, is better

517
00:20:16,509 --> 00:20:18,289
in more than ten million people

518
00:20:19,024 --> 00:20:21,284
worldwide are thought to be living with Parkinson's.

519
00:20:21,825 --> 00:20:23,204
And, of course, it's a neurodegenerative

520
00:20:23,744 --> 00:20:25,284
disorder with symptoms including

521
00:20:25,744 --> 00:20:28,565
a tremors, rigidity, slowness of movement, and mobility

522
00:20:28,625 --> 00:20:30,404
difficult. So Michael j Fox,

523
00:20:31,200 --> 00:20:32,159
of course, has,

524
00:20:32,960 --> 00:20:33,460
Parkinson's.

525
00:20:34,559 --> 00:20:37,679
And while there's no cure, early diagnosis can

526
00:20:37,679 --> 00:20:40,740
help those affected access support and treatments earlier.

527
00:20:41,440 --> 00:20:42,819
The team behind the,

528
00:20:44,275 --> 00:20:46,994
the diagnostic method based on observations of motor

529
00:20:46,994 --> 00:20:47,494
symptoms

530
00:20:47,955 --> 00:20:50,695
are often inefficient last lack objectivity.

531
00:20:51,955 --> 00:20:54,355
While those based on biomarkers such as level

532
00:20:54,355 --> 00:20:55,654
of substance in the cere

533
00:20:57,154 --> 00:20:58,055
oh my god.

534
00:20:58,559 --> 00:21:01,599
Cerebral spinal fluid often involves specialist equipment, high

535
00:21:01,599 --> 00:21:03,059
trained health care professionals,

536
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:06,579
but this pen can capture telltale motion signs

537
00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,679
to determine if a person has Parkinson's or

538
00:21:09,679 --> 00:21:10,179
not.

539
00:21:12,305 --> 00:21:12,625
So,

540
00:21:13,424 --> 00:21:15,664
interesting where we're happening here. What's happening here

541
00:21:15,664 --> 00:21:18,964
with these types of tools and, combine it

542
00:21:19,265 --> 00:21:20,164
with AI.

543
00:21:20,944 --> 00:21:22,704
Now this is what I was referring to

544
00:21:22,704 --> 00:21:23,204
earlier.

545
00:21:23,825 --> 00:21:25,605
Microsoft is fighting USB

546
00:21:26,109 --> 00:21:27,569
c k, chaos

547
00:21:27,950 --> 00:21:29,569
on Windows 11 laptops,

548
00:21:31,309 --> 00:21:32,450
with a new label.

549
00:21:32,829 --> 00:21:34,289
USB c incompatibility

550
00:21:34,990 --> 00:21:37,470
leads to many frustrating issues for users, and

551
00:21:37,470 --> 00:21:39,329
that's what I'm facing with the Mac mini.

552
00:21:39,869 --> 00:21:41,845
Mac soft is fighting back with a new

553
00:21:41,845 --> 00:21:44,904
certification that guarantees features and speeds.

554
00:21:45,525 --> 00:21:47,924
So, yeah, the the manufacturer says USB c

555
00:21:47,924 --> 00:21:49,065
is fully compatible,

556
00:21:50,565 --> 00:21:54,660
but Microsoft's gonna be enforcing uniform USB c

557
00:21:54,660 --> 00:21:57,480
standards for Windows 11 laptops going forward.

558
00:21:58,500 --> 00:22:00,019
So I guess I'm gonna have to do

559
00:22:00,019 --> 00:22:02,599
research when I'm thinking about buying another laptop

560
00:22:03,140 --> 00:22:05,859
to see how it supports USB c. Up

561
00:22:05,859 --> 00:22:06,680
until now,

562
00:22:07,375 --> 00:22:08,194
PC manufacturers

563
00:22:08,815 --> 00:22:11,855
have been able to customize the performance of

564
00:22:11,855 --> 00:22:13,934
USB c ports and didn't have to fully

565
00:22:13,934 --> 00:22:15,075
utilize the technical,

566
00:22:16,414 --> 00:22:18,894
possibilities of the hardware. In other words, a

567
00:22:18,894 --> 00:22:20,034
little less power,

568
00:22:20,380 --> 00:22:21,419
a little less,

569
00:22:22,940 --> 00:22:23,440
compatibility.

570
00:22:24,460 --> 00:22:26,299
And this happens sometimes when you take a

571
00:22:26,299 --> 00:22:27,980
USB c cable and plug it in and

572
00:22:27,980 --> 00:22:29,980
nothing happens, and you change it out, and

573
00:22:29,980 --> 00:22:32,059
all of a sudden it works. I was

574
00:22:32,059 --> 00:22:32,924
seeing that.

575
00:22:33,485 --> 00:22:34,845
So one of the things I'm gonna be

576
00:22:34,845 --> 00:22:36,225
doing when I go back

577
00:22:36,684 --> 00:22:38,605
to The Philippines, I'm gonna be taking four

578
00:22:38,605 --> 00:22:41,825
or five highly certified USB c cables

579
00:22:42,525 --> 00:22:43,265
that are

580
00:22:43,644 --> 00:22:44,625
rated for

581
00:22:44,924 --> 00:22:46,445
the power and the

582
00:22:47,244 --> 00:22:49,220
and I sure I have them, but I'm

583
00:22:49,220 --> 00:22:51,080
just using this as an additional

584
00:22:51,940 --> 00:22:54,359
make sure that I have the correct,

585
00:22:55,140 --> 00:22:56,119
supported cables

586
00:22:56,580 --> 00:22:57,080
because

587
00:22:57,539 --> 00:22:58,839
DisplayPort and Thunderbolt

588
00:22:59,220 --> 00:23:01,664
are also fully supported through USB c.

589
00:23:03,184 --> 00:23:05,744
But, again, many manufacturers haven't had to fully

590
00:23:05,744 --> 00:23:06,965
implement these specifications.

591
00:23:08,065 --> 00:23:09,664
For example, when you connect a monitor to

592
00:23:09,664 --> 00:23:11,904
your computer via USB C, you might use

593
00:23:11,904 --> 00:23:13,125
a random cable,

594
00:23:13,585 --> 00:23:15,924
but the monitor remains dark and, again,

595
00:23:16,570 --> 00:23:19,230
lacks USB c standards. It's hard to troubleshoot

596
00:23:19,289 --> 00:23:20,670
the problem when this occurs.

597
00:23:21,609 --> 00:23:23,230
And they wanna put an end to it,

598
00:23:23,690 --> 00:23:25,549
and they're coming up with a

599
00:23:27,130 --> 00:23:27,960
a a symbol

600
00:23:30,224 --> 00:23:33,365
that it's either five, ten, or 20 gigabits

601
00:23:33,424 --> 00:23:34,644
per second compliant.

602
00:23:35,184 --> 00:23:38,144
It either can support greater than 4.5 watts

603
00:23:38,144 --> 00:23:39,265
or 7.5

604
00:23:39,265 --> 00:23:39,765
watts,

605
00:23:40,224 --> 00:23:42,244
can support PC charging,

606
00:23:42,785 --> 00:23:44,849
can support a display port.

607
00:23:46,609 --> 00:23:48,690
So and then there'll be stuff for USB

608
00:23:48,690 --> 00:23:51,089
four when that comes, talking about PCI Express

609
00:23:51,089 --> 00:23:52,549
and Thunderbolt three capability.

610
00:23:53,890 --> 00:23:55,809
And I I think this is a great

611
00:23:55,809 --> 00:23:56,309
idea,

612
00:23:57,730 --> 00:24:00,555
especially considering everything I've been dealing with.

613
00:24:04,555 --> 00:24:05,055
So

614
00:24:05,434 --> 00:24:07,295
how much trouble have you had with USB

615
00:24:07,355 --> 00:24:07,855
c?

616
00:24:08,315 --> 00:24:08,815
USB

617
00:24:09,115 --> 00:24:09,615
three,

618
00:24:10,795 --> 00:24:13,215
USB c, however you wanna replay to it.

619
00:24:15,109 --> 00:24:17,829
Keep an eye out. Gmail's new material three

620
00:24:17,829 --> 00:24:21,109
expressive design is secretly hitting some inboxes, so

621
00:24:21,109 --> 00:24:23,609
it's basically a new way to cause

622
00:24:23,990 --> 00:24:25,909
text to kinda, like, stick out a little

623
00:24:25,909 --> 00:24:26,970
bit more sharper

624
00:24:27,669 --> 00:24:28,650
and more colors.

625
00:24:29,204 --> 00:24:31,125
So be aware of that. That's that's coming.

626
00:24:31,125 --> 00:24:33,625
You see that update coming into your computers.

627
00:24:34,164 --> 00:24:36,565
Also, the Nothing Phone three has been leaked,

628
00:24:36,565 --> 00:24:39,144
reveals price and hints at headphone one launch.

629
00:24:39,684 --> 00:24:43,129
So the Nothing Phone three expected in July

630
00:24:43,750 --> 00:24:46,069
with 12 gigs to two, 12 gigs of

631
00:24:46,069 --> 00:24:47,349
RAM, 256

632
00:24:47,349 --> 00:24:48,250
megs of storage,

633
00:24:49,029 --> 00:24:51,210
starting at about €850.

634
00:24:52,230 --> 00:24:54,734
Nothing is reportedly launching headphone one, its first

635
00:24:54,815 --> 00:24:57,714
over the ear headphones priced around €300.

636
00:24:58,575 --> 00:25:02,035
So, just be aware that that is forthcoming.

637
00:25:03,855 --> 00:25:05,315
Apple, non surprisingly,

638
00:25:06,095 --> 00:25:06,914
has chosen

639
00:25:07,295 --> 00:25:08,035
to appeal.

640
00:25:09,789 --> 00:25:11,809
They they filed appeal with European Union,

641
00:25:12,269 --> 00:25:15,889
challenged the bloc's order requiring, greater iOS interoperability

642
00:25:16,190 --> 00:25:17,409
with rival companies.

643
00:25:18,190 --> 00:25:20,829
The EU executive in March directed Apple to

644
00:25:20,829 --> 00:25:23,309
make its mobile operation more compatible with competitor

645
00:25:23,309 --> 00:25:23,775
apps,

646
00:25:27,615 --> 00:25:30,575
threatens its seamless user experience while creating security

647
00:25:30,575 --> 00:25:32,355
risk. Of course, always that.

648
00:25:32,654 --> 00:25:34,894
Noting the companies have already requested access to

649
00:25:34,894 --> 00:25:36,914
sensitive user data, including notification

650
00:25:37,779 --> 00:25:40,119
content, complete Wi Fi network histories.

651
00:25:40,660 --> 00:25:43,299
The company faces potential fine of its 10%

652
00:25:43,299 --> 00:25:45,640
worldwide annual revenue found in violation

653
00:25:46,099 --> 00:25:47,240
of DME interoperability

654
00:25:47,619 --> 00:25:48,119
rules

655
00:25:48,500 --> 00:25:50,815
to curb big tech market share. You know,

656
00:25:50,815 --> 00:25:53,535
you just have to trust the manufacturer of

657
00:25:53,535 --> 00:25:54,835
the stuff that you are

658
00:25:55,455 --> 00:25:55,955
buying.

659
00:25:56,494 --> 00:25:58,595
You need to make sure that you are,

660
00:26:00,494 --> 00:26:01,555
putting in effect

661
00:26:02,255 --> 00:26:02,755
the,

662
00:26:04,340 --> 00:26:05,720
for better words, the,

663
00:26:08,820 --> 00:26:10,340
oh, what's the word I'm looking here for?

664
00:26:10,340 --> 00:26:12,600
You know, maybe Apple needs an Apple certified

665
00:26:12,660 --> 00:26:13,160
program.

666
00:26:14,900 --> 00:26:16,279
Maybe that's what they need.

667
00:26:18,164 --> 00:26:19,845
So we have had a number of folks,

668
00:26:20,164 --> 00:26:23,285
streaming SATs, and I do appreciate the streaming

669
00:26:23,285 --> 00:26:25,065
SATs that have been coming to the show.

670
00:26:25,445 --> 00:26:27,365
10 SATs a minute from,

671
00:26:27,924 --> 00:26:28,424
Sinalco,

672
00:26:29,924 --> 00:26:32,519
s I n a l c o.

673
00:26:33,059 --> 00:26:33,380
So,

674
00:26:33,860 --> 00:26:36,180
some streaming sats that have come in from

675
00:26:36,180 --> 00:26:38,500
him. I definitely appreciate it from,

676
00:26:39,619 --> 00:26:41,460
from the last show, and and,

677
00:26:42,384 --> 00:26:44,065
and then we had some stats come in

678
00:26:44,065 --> 00:26:45,984
for the new media show to cover that

679
00:26:45,984 --> 00:26:48,544
over there. I definitely appreciate those of you

680
00:26:48,544 --> 00:26:49,924

continue to support

709
00:27:54,650 --> 00:27:55,390
the show.

710
00:27:55,930 --> 00:27:58,170
Moving back into tech, the GIGO Pixel 10

711
00:27:58,170 --> 00:28:00,349
phones reportedly launched on August 13.

712
00:28:01,210 --> 00:28:04,029
So that's the, that's the expected

713
00:28:04,650 --> 00:28:07,390
arrival time thereabouts with the phones

714
00:28:07,769 --> 00:28:09,765
showing up in and around the twentieth.

715
00:28:10,384 --> 00:28:12,884
So, if you are due for a new,

716
00:28:14,464 --> 00:28:15,765
Google Pixel 10,

717
00:28:16,625 --> 00:28:18,464
coming to a store near you in a

718
00:28:18,464 --> 00:28:20,545
very, very short order. I can't believe it's

719
00:28:20,545 --> 00:28:21,365
already June.

720
00:28:21,984 --> 00:28:23,130
I I really can't.

721
00:28:24,089 --> 00:28:25,849
I'm gonna celebrate a birthday here in a

722
00:28:25,849 --> 00:28:27,789
few days and, my goodness.

723
00:28:28,490 --> 00:28:29,630
It's just like,

724
00:28:29,930 --> 00:28:30,430
really?

725
00:28:31,289 --> 00:28:32,410
Already that,

726
00:28:32,809 --> 00:28:35,450
that time of time of year? And another

727
00:28:35,450 --> 00:28:37,289
click up on the, on the on the

728
00:28:37,289 --> 00:28:38,190
counter here.

729
00:28:39,184 --> 00:28:42,164
The macOS Tahoe is rumored to follow Sequoia

730
00:28:43,025 --> 00:28:45,204
and includes a whole new look for macOS

731
00:28:45,825 --> 00:28:48,244
16 or maybe what's gonna be called macOS

732
00:28:48,384 --> 00:28:49,204
26.

733
00:28:51,105 --> 00:28:51,605
And,

734
00:28:52,144 --> 00:28:53,950
we will see what comes. We're gonna see

735
00:28:53,950 --> 00:28:55,789
more during, you know, the Apple event and

736
00:28:55,789 --> 00:28:56,289
so

737
00:28:56,589 --> 00:28:57,309
forth. But,

738
00:28:57,710 --> 00:28:59,569
yeah, the rumor is macOS

739
00:28:59,950 --> 00:29:00,450
Tahoe

740
00:29:00,909 --> 00:29:02,429
will be the name. I hope it doesn't

741
00:29:02,429 --> 00:29:03,569
drive like a Chevy.

742
00:29:04,190 --> 00:29:06,029
For those of you that Chevy owners out

743
00:29:06,029 --> 00:29:07,884
there, you know, I'm I'm a bit of

744
00:29:07,884 --> 00:29:08,785
a Ford fan.

745
00:29:09,805 --> 00:29:12,045
Elon Musk is saying that, X Chat is

746
00:29:12,045 --> 00:29:14,684
rolling out to all, but questions remain about

747
00:29:14,684 --> 00:29:16,924
its alleged security. Of course, I wouldn't say

748
00:29:17,005 --> 00:29:18,945
I I'm sure that TechCrunch,

749
00:29:20,230 --> 00:29:22,150
you know, they they obviously have to throw

750
00:29:22,150 --> 00:29:23,910
a jab in here. Right? Because they they

751
00:29:23,910 --> 00:29:24,809
hate Elon

752
00:29:25,429 --> 00:29:27,190
now. So they, you know, they have to

753
00:29:27,190 --> 00:29:28,970
have a headline here that is,

754
00:29:29,509 --> 00:29:30,009
disparaging.

755
00:29:31,029 --> 00:29:33,750
So Elon announced the new version of extract

756
00:29:33,750 --> 00:29:36,945
messaging feature, X chat rolling out with support

757
00:29:36,945 --> 00:29:37,265
for,

758
00:29:38,705 --> 00:29:42,065
for features like vanishing messages, encryption, ability to

759
00:29:42,065 --> 00:29:44,865
share files alongside its audio and video calling

760
00:29:44,865 --> 00:29:45,365
support.

761
00:29:46,144 --> 00:29:48,325
Of course, this is not yet broadly available.

762
00:29:48,705 --> 00:29:51,369
Beta test just began a few days ago.

763
00:29:51,750 --> 00:29:53,750
Said the x team expects to bring X

764
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:56,069
chat to all users sometimes this week unless

765
00:29:56,069 --> 00:29:58,169
they encounter scaling issues during the rollout.

766
00:29:59,109 --> 00:30:00,410
He noted the updated

767
00:30:01,669 --> 00:30:03,750
version of X chat has been built on

768
00:30:03,750 --> 00:30:04,250
Rust

769
00:30:04,789 --> 00:30:08,335
with Bitcoin style encryption. Well, Bitcoin's really not

770
00:30:08,335 --> 00:30:08,835
encrypted,

771
00:30:09,934 --> 00:30:12,414
which was brought up to many folks, but

772
00:30:12,414 --> 00:30:14,515
maybe he's talking about blockchain.

773
00:30:17,055 --> 00:30:19,215
In addition, he shared that X Chat can

774
00:30:19,215 --> 00:30:21,119
now X Chat users can now make audio

775
00:30:21,119 --> 00:30:22,820
and video calls without a phone

776
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:24,980
number across all platforms

777
00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:26,259
kinda similar

778
00:30:26,880 --> 00:30:30,420
to, to WhatsApp. So, no surprise there.

779
00:30:31,039 --> 00:30:33,440
Did you know you're just one molecule away

780
00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:33,940
from

781
00:30:34,444 --> 00:30:36,224
going to sleep or staying awake?

782
00:30:36,684 --> 00:30:37,184
Well,

783
00:30:38,285 --> 00:30:40,384
there is a study out from the neuroscience

784
00:30:40,684 --> 00:30:43,005
news saying that one molecule is used to

785
00:30:43,005 --> 00:30:44,525
cause us to go to sleep and also

786
00:30:44,525 --> 00:30:46,924
to wake up. It's a brain switch. It's

787
00:30:46,924 --> 00:30:50,779
a single molecule dural FLP 11, Both induces

788
00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:52,779
and end sleep and c

789
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:55,900
elegans by acting on different neurons.

790
00:30:56,840 --> 00:30:58,220
The receptor DMS

791
00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:00,460
r dash one is essentially

792
00:31:00,840 --> 00:31:04,285
interpreting FLP dash 11 sleep command. Did you

793
00:31:04,285 --> 00:31:05,085
know we were,

794
00:31:05,724 --> 00:31:07,325
defined by a bunch of numbers of the

795
00:31:07,325 --> 00:31:08,144
human body?

796
00:31:08,605 --> 00:31:10,945
Now these those studied in worms,

797
00:31:11,644 --> 00:31:12,945
yes, in worms,

798
00:31:13,404 --> 00:31:15,825
this mechanism may reveal conserved

799
00:31:16,259 --> 00:31:18,599
sleep pathways across species including

800
00:31:19,460 --> 00:31:19,960
humans.

801
00:31:20,900 --> 00:31:23,539
So they studied this on in worms, and

802
00:31:23,539 --> 00:31:25,859
they say that this is going to help

803
00:31:25,859 --> 00:31:26,359
us

804
00:31:26,820 --> 00:31:28,740
have a switch to make us go to

805
00:31:28,740 --> 00:31:29,240
sleep.

806
00:31:32,465 --> 00:31:32,965
Okay.

807
00:31:34,144 --> 00:31:35,605
It's a pretty deep article

808
00:31:36,065 --> 00:31:37,125
for you bio

809
00:31:37,664 --> 00:31:39,365
in bioscience folks out there.

810
00:31:40,065 --> 00:31:42,305
Check it out. I'm sure it's not gonna

811
00:31:42,305 --> 00:31:45,250
help us any any of us in the

812
00:31:45,250 --> 00:31:46,069
near future.

813
00:31:48,049 --> 00:31:50,210
The iPhone 17 could see Apple repeat one

814
00:31:50,210 --> 00:31:51,349
of its most controversial

815
00:31:51,650 --> 00:31:52,710
hardware decisions.

816
00:31:53,329 --> 00:31:55,430
This year's upgrade could be smaller

817
00:31:56,384 --> 00:31:57,365
than expected.

818
00:31:58,785 --> 00:32:00,565
May not get a processor upgrade,

819
00:32:01,184 --> 00:32:03,585
instead launching with the same chipset. No one

820
00:32:03,585 --> 00:32:05,684
knows exactly what's gonna happen.

821
00:32:06,065 --> 00:32:08,625
Our our phones are pretty doggone amazing the

822
00:32:08,625 --> 00:32:10,805
way they are, so I'm I'm not too

823
00:32:11,345 --> 00:32:11,845
worried.

824
00:32:13,769 --> 00:32:15,869
This next article, I have

825
00:32:16,410 --> 00:32:17,869
incredible concerns about.

826
00:32:18,410 --> 00:32:20,569
US banks don't want to have to reveal

827
00:32:20,569 --> 00:32:22,429
when they've been hacked. Why not?

828
00:32:22,809 --> 00:32:25,150
They should have to reveal this.

829
00:32:26,169 --> 00:32:27,230
So what happens

830
00:32:27,894 --> 00:32:29,595
when a bank doesn't reveal it?

831
00:32:30,775 --> 00:32:31,914
They pay the ransom.

832
00:32:32,615 --> 00:32:34,214
And then a few months later, they do

833
00:32:34,214 --> 00:32:34,875
it again,

834
00:32:35,255 --> 00:32:36,954
and it's noticed by the public.

835
00:32:40,099 --> 00:32:42,500
Was the bank able to be held accountable

836
00:32:42,500 --> 00:32:44,359
and fix things the first time?

837
00:32:45,299 --> 00:32:47,460
I think banks should have to reveal this

838
00:32:47,460 --> 00:32:49,160
stuff. We're protected by FDIC.

839
00:32:51,380 --> 00:32:53,539
The bank says it adds complexity and strain

840
00:32:53,539 --> 00:32:55,299
to their systems. No. They just don't wanna

841
00:32:55,299 --> 00:32:55,994
report it.

842
00:32:59,835 --> 00:33:02,234
So they're pushing back against the recent USC

843
00:33:02,394 --> 00:33:03,535
SEC Commission

844
00:33:03,994 --> 00:33:06,795
ruling, which requires public companies, including banks, to

845
00:33:06,795 --> 00:33:07,855
disclose cyberattacks.

846
00:33:09,434 --> 00:33:11,900
The group members including American Bankers Association and

847
00:33:11,900 --> 00:33:14,140
Bank Policy Institute, Secur and the Serenity Financial

848
00:33:14,140 --> 00:33:14,960
Market Association

849
00:33:15,580 --> 00:33:17,119
all say we don't want this.

850
00:33:20,460 --> 00:33:21,440
This cybersecurity

851
00:33:21,900 --> 00:33:22,640
risk management

852
00:33:23,025 --> 00:33:26,144
strategy governments and incident disclosure role was introduced

853
00:33:26,144 --> 00:33:27,525
in 2023,

854
00:33:28,785 --> 00:33:30,484
but they don't wanna do this anymore.

855
00:33:30,945 --> 00:33:32,085
They don't wanna review.

856
00:33:36,419 --> 00:33:37,720
So I I say tough.

857
00:33:38,099 --> 00:33:39,399
You're holding our money.

858
00:33:40,259 --> 00:33:42,819
You have to reveal this. You can't reveal

859
00:33:42,819 --> 00:33:44,819
it because this, we will know. If you're

860
00:33:44,819 --> 00:33:46,259
hacked twice in a row, I'm gonna take

861
00:33:46,259 --> 00:33:47,720
my money out of your bank.

862
00:33:51,684 --> 00:33:54,244
WhatsApp has just dropped support for older iPhones

863
00:33:54,244 --> 00:33:57,065
and Android phones. So pre iOS 15 devices,

864
00:33:57,365 --> 00:33:59,224
you're not getting a WhatsApp update.

865
00:34:00,724 --> 00:34:03,444
WhatsApp will only work on devices running iOS

866
00:34:03,444 --> 00:34:06,200
15 and Android five point o and above.

867
00:34:06,820 --> 00:34:08,840
So if you are on a older Android

868
00:34:09,059 --> 00:34:10,039
or older

869
00:34:11,140 --> 00:34:13,000
iPhone or older,

870
00:34:14,900 --> 00:34:15,400
tablet,

871
00:34:16,965 --> 00:34:18,805
you're not gonna get an upgrade. I don't

872
00:34:18,805 --> 00:34:20,885
know if your service is gonna continue to

873
00:34:20,885 --> 00:34:23,305
work or if it just won't work.

874
00:34:25,285 --> 00:34:27,365
And this is I mean, WhatsApp is

875
00:34:28,369 --> 00:34:31,030
you know, in Asia, WhatsApp is the deal.

876
00:34:31,890 --> 00:34:33,730
No one does a calls you on your

877
00:34:33,730 --> 00:34:34,230
phone.

878
00:34:39,010 --> 00:34:41,349
They don't call you. They WhatsApp you,

879
00:34:42,094 --> 00:34:43,635
Or they ring you on Messenger.

880
00:34:45,054 --> 00:34:46,594
And they never call your phone.

881
00:34:47,454 --> 00:34:49,694
What's your WhatsApp? Which is your number, of

882
00:34:49,694 --> 00:34:52,655
course. And then they they digital contact you

883
00:34:52,655 --> 00:34:53,155
on

884
00:34:53,534 --> 00:34:54,989
that that's that's how it works.

885
00:34:55,869 --> 00:34:58,510
No no one dials a number overseas. It

886
00:34:58,510 --> 00:34:59,250
doesn't happen.

887
00:35:00,269 --> 00:35:02,030
Every bit actually, when you find a business

888
00:35:02,030 --> 00:35:03,469
that doesn't have a WhatsApp, you say, how

889
00:35:03,469 --> 00:35:04,690
come you don't have a WhatsApp?

890
00:35:06,269 --> 00:35:07,765
There's a company there I'm trying to do

891
00:35:07,765 --> 00:35:09,684
a little business with right now. I'm trying

892
00:35:09,684 --> 00:35:11,545
to set something up, something interesting.

893
00:35:13,445 --> 00:35:15,364
And I wanna spend a little money with

894
00:35:15,364 --> 00:35:17,224
this company. They don't have WhatsApp.

895
00:35:18,724 --> 00:35:19,224
And

896
00:35:19,550 --> 00:35:21,150
a lot of companies are trying to mimic

897
00:35:21,150 --> 00:35:22,130
what they're doing.

898
00:35:22,590 --> 00:35:24,269
And I complained to the company. I said,

899
00:35:24,269 --> 00:35:25,869
I'm gonna have to come to your business

900
00:35:25,869 --> 00:35:27,489
to make sure I'm talking to you,

901
00:35:28,670 --> 00:35:30,050
and I don't wanna do that.

902
00:35:30,429 --> 00:35:31,949
I wanna talk to you over I wanna

903
00:35:31,949 --> 00:35:33,730
talk to you over WhatsApp

904
00:35:34,764 --> 00:35:36,224
This public's on your website,

905
00:35:36,684 --> 00:35:38,045
so I know I'm talking to who I'm

906
00:35:38,045 --> 00:35:38,864
talking to.

907
00:35:39,485 --> 00:35:41,164
Especially if I'm gonna have to put, like,

908
00:35:41,164 --> 00:35:43,244
a thousand dollars down on something I wanna

909
00:35:43,244 --> 00:35:43,744
buy.

910
00:35:45,164 --> 00:35:47,005
I'm not gonna send anybody any money unless

911
00:35:47,005 --> 00:35:47,969
I'm a %,

912
00:35:48,130 --> 00:35:50,389
one thousand, ten thousand % guaranteed.

913
00:35:50,929 --> 00:35:52,869
You are who you say you are.

914
00:35:54,690 --> 00:35:57,109
Because you've admitted in your own YouTube channel

915
00:35:57,250 --> 00:35:59,329
that people are spoofing you. And how do

916
00:35:59,329 --> 00:36:00,869
I know you're not the one spoofing?

917
00:36:03,034 --> 00:36:03,694
It's crazy.

918
00:36:05,674 --> 00:36:08,155
Anyway, turning the red planet green, it's time

919
00:36:08,155 --> 00:36:09,054
to take terraforming

920
00:36:09,355 --> 00:36:10,174
Mars seriously.

921
00:36:11,434 --> 00:36:13,214
We haven't even got to Mars.

922
00:36:16,039 --> 00:36:17,320
How how do you how how can you

923
00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:18,780
even consider this?

924
00:36:21,880 --> 00:36:23,800
Living plants are better than dead ones, of

925
00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:24,300
course.

926
00:36:26,359 --> 00:36:26,859
Terraforming

927
00:36:27,159 --> 00:36:28,175
will take centuries,

928
00:36:29,594 --> 00:36:30,574
if not a millennia.

929
00:36:34,315 --> 00:36:35,914
You know, this is right out of this

930
00:36:35,914 --> 00:36:37,454
is right out of space

931
00:36:37,835 --> 00:36:38,335
odyssey

932
00:36:38,635 --> 00:36:40,414
or space space stories

933
00:36:40,954 --> 00:36:41,614
of terraforming.

934
00:36:42,609 --> 00:36:46,050
And terraforming is usually requires an incredible amount

935
00:36:46,050 --> 00:36:46,789
of energy

936
00:36:48,010 --> 00:36:48,510
and

937
00:36:49,730 --> 00:36:50,869
a whole bunch of stuff.

938
00:36:53,570 --> 00:36:54,070
So

939
00:36:56,609 --> 00:36:58,345
I I think we gotta get Earth cleaned

940
00:36:58,345 --> 00:37:01,465
up first. If we're gonna terraform Mars, let's

941
00:37:01,465 --> 00:37:03,565
just let's work on the things here

942
00:37:04,265 --> 00:37:05,724
and get that right first,

943
00:37:06,825 --> 00:37:07,485
and then

944
00:37:07,785 --> 00:37:09,724
and then we can think about Mars.

945
00:37:10,184 --> 00:37:12,150
Because none of us are gonna live long

946
00:37:12,150 --> 00:37:12,650
enough

947
00:37:13,429 --> 00:37:15,210
to see any outcome of it.

948
00:37:16,070 --> 00:37:18,650
You know? Thousand years from now, maybe.

949
00:37:19,109 --> 00:37:20,949
But what has anyone ever made that works

950
00:37:20,949 --> 00:37:22,730
for a thousand years here? Right?

951
00:37:25,094 --> 00:37:26,855
So this is kind of interesting. And, you

952
00:37:26,855 --> 00:37:28,394
know, I I I watched

953
00:37:28,855 --> 00:37:29,675
on Netflix

954
00:37:29,974 --> 00:37:30,474
yesterday,

955
00:37:33,494 --> 00:37:35,255
a three part series. I don't know how

956
00:37:35,255 --> 00:37:36,934
it relates to this article I'm gonna talk

957
00:37:36,934 --> 00:37:37,755
about, but,

958
00:37:38,695 --> 00:37:39,675
it was about

959
00:37:40,670 --> 00:37:42,690
the hunt for Osama bin Laden. The

960
00:37:43,150 --> 00:37:45,469
great three point there was stuff there I

961
00:37:45,469 --> 00:37:47,090
learned that I didn't know.

962
00:37:47,469 --> 00:37:49,789
Some really eye opening stuff. It was great

963
00:37:49,789 --> 00:37:50,289
series.

964
00:37:51,469 --> 00:37:51,710
And,

965
00:37:53,804 --> 00:37:54,784
and I think about

966
00:37:55,565 --> 00:37:56,304
09/11,

967
00:37:56,684 --> 00:37:58,684
and I think about where we are 20,

968
00:37:58,684 --> 00:38:00,625
what, twenty four years later,

969
00:38:01,484 --> 00:38:03,105
almost twenty four years later.

970
00:38:04,364 --> 00:38:05,905
And then you think about

971
00:38:06,900 --> 00:38:09,380
02/2001, A Space Odyssey. You know, how long

972
00:38:09,380 --> 00:38:10,760
ago did that come out?

973
00:38:11,859 --> 00:38:13,940
And the amount of time here that has

974
00:38:13,940 --> 00:38:14,440
has,

975
00:38:17,460 --> 00:38:19,139
has, you know, the amount of time that

976
00:38:19,139 --> 00:38:20,119
has walked through.

977
00:38:23,125 --> 00:38:26,264
So the Vienna Symphony Orchestra spent some time

978
00:38:26,484 --> 00:38:27,464
playing a waltz

979
00:38:28,005 --> 00:38:29,704
that the European Space Agency

980
00:38:30,005 --> 00:38:31,464
transmitted in the general

981
00:38:31,764 --> 00:38:34,025
direction of the Voyager x probe.

982
00:38:35,420 --> 00:38:37,820
The aim of this project, named Waltz into

983
00:38:37,820 --> 00:38:40,619
Space, was to celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of

984
00:38:40,619 --> 00:38:41,760
ESA's founding

985
00:38:42,059 --> 00:38:44,160
and the two hundredth birthday of Austrian

986
00:38:45,420 --> 00:38:45,920
composer,

987
00:38:46,380 --> 00:38:47,599
Johann Strauss.

988
00:38:48,575 --> 00:38:51,135
Readers may recall that Strass' signature work, The

989
00:38:51,135 --> 00:38:52,035
Blue Danubeau,

990
00:38:52,335 --> 00:38:54,515
which I never knew what the name was,

991
00:38:54,894 --> 00:38:57,535
featured in the seminal sci fi flick 2,001,

992
00:38:57,535 --> 00:38:59,775
A Space Odyssey during the famous sequence in

993
00:38:59,775 --> 00:39:01,750
which a Pan Am spacecraft

994
00:39:02,050 --> 00:39:03,429
docks his space station.

995
00:39:04,369 --> 00:39:05,750
If you don't remember

996
00:39:06,050 --> 00:39:06,550
that

997
00:39:08,369 --> 00:39:08,849
that,

998
00:39:09,329 --> 00:39:11,109
orchestra work, the Blue Danaboo,

999
00:39:11,889 --> 00:39:12,949
they've got a video

1000
00:39:13,250 --> 00:39:15,325
on the website, and I took some time

1001
00:39:15,325 --> 00:39:17,344
and definitely listened to it. It's pretty good.

1002
00:39:19,005 --> 00:39:19,505
And,

1003
00:39:22,364 --> 00:39:22,864
so

1004
00:39:25,325 --> 00:39:28,070
very, very cool that they did this. So,

1005
00:39:28,849 --> 00:39:30,449
just a little, you know you know, thinking

1006
00:39:30,449 --> 00:39:32,369
back as because, again, I watched the 09/11

1007
00:39:32,369 --> 00:39:34,289
thing. 02/2001, I guess, is the reason that

1008
00:39:34,289 --> 00:39:35,590
it kicked the memory here.

1009
00:39:36,050 --> 00:39:36,449
But,

1010
00:39:37,010 --> 00:39:38,150
very, very interesting.

1011
00:39:38,690 --> 00:39:41,095
I might have to watch, A Space Odyssey

1012
00:39:41,095 --> 00:39:41,595
again,

1013
00:39:41,974 --> 00:39:42,934
02/2001.

1014
00:39:42,934 --> 00:39:44,855
Definitely, it's one of those you have to

1015
00:39:44,855 --> 00:39:45,355
repeat

1016
00:39:45,735 --> 00:39:46,875
every now and again.

1017
00:39:47,974 --> 00:39:50,135
Samsung Wallet gets tapped to transfer in The

1018
00:39:50,135 --> 00:39:51,035
United States,

1019
00:39:52,320 --> 00:39:54,480
So they make sending money easier than ever

1020
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:55,780
in The US region

1021
00:39:56,079 --> 00:39:57,140
back and forth

1022
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:58,500
from one another.

1023
00:39:59,519 --> 00:40:00,019
So,

1024
00:40:00,559 --> 00:40:04,079
SpaceX scrubbed a a launch today of 23

1025
00:40:04,079 --> 00:40:06,445
Starlinks. They're gonna try again tomorrow morning. No

1026
00:40:06,445 --> 00:40:08,065
reason on the scrub.

1027
00:40:09,405 --> 00:40:09,905
So

1028
00:40:10,284 --> 00:40:13,005
Kirk found a, in in the prep today.

1029
00:40:13,005 --> 00:40:15,244
My by the way, Kirk thanked me for

1030
00:40:15,244 --> 00:40:17,005
reminding all of you. He is looking for

1031
00:40:17,005 --> 00:40:17,664
a job.

1032
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:20,359
And if you have a job for Kirk,

1033
00:40:22,099 --> 00:40:24,519
please consider emailing me or,

1034
00:40:25,460 --> 00:40:28,679
emailing him directpa@geeknacentral.com.

1035
00:40:29,299 --> 00:40:30,420
But he found this

1036
00:40:31,059 --> 00:40:32,280
I should also mention,

1037
00:40:33,394 --> 00:40:35,014
if any of you are looking for IPTV,

1038
00:40:35,954 --> 00:40:38,215
email me geeknews@gmail.com.

1039
00:40:38,434 --> 00:40:38,934
Alright?

1040
00:40:39,635 --> 00:40:41,715
And if you're looking for IPTV service, let

1041
00:40:41,715 --> 00:40:43,335
me know. I I have a connection.

1042
00:40:44,034 --> 00:40:44,534
Gothamist

1043
00:40:45,394 --> 00:40:47,474
look at look at this website. Now watch

1044
00:40:47,474 --> 00:40:48,215
what happens

1045
00:40:50,090 --> 00:40:51,550
when I when I scroll.

1046
00:40:52,650 --> 00:40:54,250
Do you see what's happening? For those of

1047
00:40:54,250 --> 00:40:55,550
you that are are listening,

1048
00:40:55,930 --> 00:40:57,070
at the very header,

1049
00:40:57,450 --> 00:40:59,930
there's a bar that's going across the top

1050
00:40:59,930 --> 00:41:02,224
of the website that shows you how far

1051
00:41:02,224 --> 00:41:03,765
you've gotten into the article.

1052
00:41:04,704 --> 00:41:07,765
I saw this. I thought, that's pretty cool.

1053
00:41:09,025 --> 00:41:10,565
That's cooler than the article.

1054
00:41:12,625 --> 00:41:13,125
Definitely

1055
00:41:14,625 --> 00:41:15,844
a very interesting

1056
00:41:17,190 --> 00:41:18,329
a very interesting,

1057
00:41:19,510 --> 00:41:21,909
function on the website. I've never seen that

1058
00:41:21,909 --> 00:41:23,130
on a website before.

1059
00:41:24,710 --> 00:41:25,289
So Lartico's

1060
00:41:25,590 --> 00:41:28,710
NYC summer stargazing season kicks off with a

1061
00:41:28,710 --> 00:41:29,210
triangle

1062
00:41:29,574 --> 00:41:30,074
meteor

1063
00:41:30,454 --> 00:41:32,315
shower. So it just talks about,

1064
00:41:32,695 --> 00:41:34,695
you know, what we're gonna be seeing in

1065
00:41:34,695 --> 00:41:35,434
the sky.

1066
00:41:36,375 --> 00:41:36,875
And,

1067
00:41:38,295 --> 00:41:40,394
so summer solids is coming.

1068
00:41:41,175 --> 00:41:45,269
And, but, anyway, Gothamist, an a nonprofit newsroom

1069
00:41:45,329 --> 00:41:46,630
powered by WNYC.

1070
00:41:48,449 --> 00:41:48,949
Interesting.

1071
00:41:49,809 --> 00:41:50,710
A nonprofit

1072
00:41:51,170 --> 00:41:52,630
newsroom powered by

1073
00:41:53,089 --> 00:41:53,589
WNYC.

1074
00:41:53,969 --> 00:41:55,269
Isn't that public?

1075
00:41:55,650 --> 00:41:57,909
Is it WNYC a public radio station?

1076
00:41:59,015 --> 00:42:01,255
So, anyway, I just thought the website was

1077
00:42:01,255 --> 00:42:03,594
cool. The article is less less,

1078
00:42:03,974 --> 00:42:05,755
less enhanced or less

1079
00:42:06,055 --> 00:42:06,555
important.

1080
00:42:07,015 --> 00:42:09,494
Make A Wish helps Tacoma Cancer patients fulfill

1081
00:42:09,494 --> 00:42:11,494
dream of giving back to fellow children. This

1082
00:42:11,494 --> 00:42:12,235
is interesting.

1083
00:42:12,929 --> 00:42:14,769
So make a wish to obviously, kids wanna

1084
00:42:14,769 --> 00:42:15,589
go to Disneyland

1085
00:42:15,889 --> 00:42:17,570
or wherever they may wanna go. And, you

1086
00:42:17,570 --> 00:42:19,730
know, this is their last you know, this

1087
00:42:19,730 --> 00:42:21,730
is the it's a dream come true to

1088
00:42:21,730 --> 00:42:24,449
get something the family likely cannot afford to

1089
00:42:24,449 --> 00:42:24,949
do.

1090
00:42:25,485 --> 00:42:26,465
But a young man

1091
00:42:28,684 --> 00:42:30,285
wants to make a lot of wishes come

1092
00:42:30,285 --> 00:42:32,144
true for kids fighting health battles.

1093
00:42:33,244 --> 00:42:33,744
And,

1094
00:42:35,164 --> 00:42:36,945
his wish is that

1095
00:42:37,325 --> 00:42:38,369
they give back

1096
00:42:39,170 --> 00:42:40,230
gaming consoles,

1097
00:42:42,050 --> 00:42:43,990
nothing to him, but give back,

1098
00:42:44,690 --> 00:42:46,150
different types of,

1099
00:42:46,930 --> 00:42:49,970
gaming device. Tucker Schuld has been fighting cancer

1100
00:42:49,970 --> 00:42:52,070
at Mary Bridge Children's Hospital in Tacoma.

1101
00:42:52,425 --> 00:42:54,664
He said video games have been video games

1102
00:42:54,664 --> 00:42:56,684
have been key in his treatment process.

1103
00:42:57,224 --> 00:42:58,824
He says there's a lot of periods where

1104
00:42:58,824 --> 00:43:01,864
I felt really sick and everything, but just

1105
00:43:01,864 --> 00:43:04,105
a lot of waiting involved. So playing games

1106
00:43:04,105 --> 00:43:06,285
just really helped take my mind off it.

1107
00:43:06,985 --> 00:43:08,590
So So when asked what his wish was,

1108
00:43:08,590 --> 00:43:10,909
he asked for more special game system designed

1109
00:43:10,909 --> 00:43:13,230
for hospital setting to be given to other

1110
00:43:13,230 --> 00:43:14,609
kids getting treatment.

1111
00:43:15,309 --> 00:43:15,809
Previously,

1112
00:43:16,349 --> 00:43:18,989
I believe they only had only two or

1113
00:43:18,989 --> 00:43:21,534
three game systems. Now they have 11, which

1114
00:43:21,534 --> 00:43:24,175
means there's one for every single oncology room

1115
00:43:24,175 --> 00:43:26,175
so all kids could play at the same

1116
00:43:26,175 --> 00:43:27,934
time if they wanted to and no one

1117
00:43:27,934 --> 00:43:28,835
has to wait.

1118
00:43:29,775 --> 00:43:31,875
Tucker says he wants to give other pediatric

1119
00:43:32,014 --> 00:43:35,054
cancer patients the same experience he had he

1120
00:43:35,054 --> 00:43:35,554
had.

1121
00:43:36,150 --> 00:43:37,609
So he said occupying

1122
00:43:38,309 --> 00:43:40,730
myself by playing video games, all the distraction

1123
00:43:40,789 --> 00:43:43,109
just really made it really nice, made me

1124
00:43:43,109 --> 00:43:43,609
feel

1125
00:43:43,909 --> 00:43:46,069
like home, take my mind, all the stuff

1126
00:43:46,069 --> 00:43:47,909
that was going on during my treatment. I

1127
00:43:47,909 --> 00:43:48,650
think that,

1128
00:43:48,949 --> 00:43:50,650
ladies and gentlemen, is awesome.

1129
00:43:51,045 --> 00:43:51,545
And,

1130
00:43:54,005 --> 00:43:56,184
if you have a local Make A Wish

1131
00:43:56,565 --> 00:43:58,644
Foundation, and I don't know if it's national

1132
00:43:58,644 --> 00:44:00,484
or chapters or how it works, I honestly

1133
00:44:00,484 --> 00:44:00,984
don't,

1134
00:44:02,405 --> 00:44:04,744
that sounds like something that is really,

1135
00:44:05,829 --> 00:44:06,949
really something that,

1136
00:44:07,829 --> 00:44:09,210
would be a great donation,

1137
00:44:09,829 --> 00:44:12,329
a new gaming system, handheld unit.

1138
00:44:12,949 --> 00:44:14,630
Those of you that gamers know better than

1139
00:44:14,630 --> 00:44:15,609
I do, but,

1140
00:44:16,230 --> 00:44:17,769
yeah, it really seems like

1141
00:44:18,150 --> 00:44:21,034
that's that's something cool. So, good on him

1142
00:44:21,034 --> 00:44:22,734
for wanting to get back to other,

1143
00:44:23,594 --> 00:44:24,094
folks,

1144
00:44:24,635 --> 00:44:27,135
that were, you know, all the children, teenagers

1145
00:44:27,275 --> 00:44:28,014
getting treatment.

1146
00:44:29,594 --> 00:44:32,155
The US government is investigating message, impersonating Trump's

1147
00:44:32,155 --> 00:44:34,170
chief of staff, Susie Wiles. Now how does

1148
00:44:34,170 --> 00:44:34,829
this happen?

1149
00:44:36,809 --> 00:44:39,050
The government is investigating after elected official, business

1150
00:44:39,050 --> 00:44:41,289
executives, and other prominent figures in recent weeks

1151
00:44:41,289 --> 00:44:44,190
received messages from someone impersonating Susie Wiles.

1152
00:44:46,569 --> 00:44:48,764
They breached the phone. They tried to impersonate

1153
00:44:48,824 --> 00:44:50,764
her, Trump told reporters on Friday.

1154
00:44:51,864 --> 00:44:53,945
A White House official confirmed the investigation, and

1155
00:44:53,945 --> 00:44:55,625
Friday said the White House takes cyber security

1156
00:44:55,625 --> 00:44:56,684
of its staff seriously.

1157
00:44:57,625 --> 00:44:59,864
The Wall Street Journal reported that senators, governors,

1158
00:44:59,864 --> 00:45:02,184
business leaders, others begin receiving text and phone

1159
00:45:02,184 --> 00:45:03,724
calls from someone who seemed

1160
00:45:04,079 --> 00:45:06,640
to have gained access to the contacts in

1161
00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:07,140
Will's

1162
00:45:07,680 --> 00:45:08,980
personal cell phone.

1163
00:45:09,920 --> 00:45:12,079
The message and calls were not coming from

1164
00:45:12,079 --> 00:45:12,900
her number,

1165
00:45:13,200 --> 00:45:15,855
but it targeted people that were in her

1166
00:45:16,335 --> 00:45:17,315
contact list.

1167
00:45:22,414 --> 00:45:24,275
Well, you know, my contact list,

1168
00:45:24,815 --> 00:45:25,554
good luck.

1169
00:45:25,934 --> 00:45:28,675
I I have over 5,000

1170
00:45:29,054 --> 00:45:31,260
contacts in my contact list from all the

1171
00:45:31,260 --> 00:45:34,140
years doing business. I've never cleaned one of

1172
00:45:34,140 --> 00:45:36,699
them up. It's just it's just a task

1173
00:45:36,699 --> 00:45:37,440
that is

1174
00:45:38,219 --> 00:45:38,719
impossible.

1175
00:45:39,659 --> 00:45:41,739
But you think over twenty years of entering

1176
00:45:41,739 --> 00:45:45,340
people's numbers and names and in notes, 5,000

1177
00:45:45,340 --> 00:45:45,840
entries,

1178
00:45:46,140 --> 00:45:46,755
good luck

1179
00:45:47,795 --> 00:45:49,014
getting my contacts.

1180
00:45:51,795 --> 00:45:53,234
Is there a good tool out there to

1181
00:45:53,234 --> 00:45:55,554
help you clean up contacts? Does it know

1182
00:45:55,554 --> 00:45:57,474
how long since you've accessed one or been

1183
00:45:57,474 --> 00:45:59,920
messaged by one? Does anyone know of a

1184
00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:02,420
tool? Probably that I'm sure there is.

1185
00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:06,179
US led scientists

1186
00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:08,900
discover new evidence on origins of intermediate

1187
00:46:09,599 --> 00:46:10,815
mass black holes.

1188
00:46:12,094 --> 00:46:12,594
Intermediate

1189
00:46:13,054 --> 00:46:15,295
mass aren't they all the same? Don't they

1190
00:46:15,295 --> 00:46:16,434
operate the same?

1191
00:46:17,295 --> 00:46:19,534
Origins. The origins of these things. So let's

1192
00:46:19,614 --> 00:46:20,974
what what do they have to say? What

1193
00:46:20,974 --> 00:46:21,795
are the origins?

1194
00:46:23,375 --> 00:46:25,614
Black holes are generally grouped into three sizes,

1195
00:46:25,614 --> 00:46:26,489
stellar mass

1196
00:46:27,050 --> 00:46:29,449
black holes, which are about five to 50

1197
00:46:29,449 --> 00:46:30,829
times the mass of the sun,

1198
00:46:31,289 --> 00:46:33,690
super massive black holes with millions to billions

1199
00:46:33,690 --> 00:46:36,329
of times the sun mass, and intermediate mass

1200
00:46:36,329 --> 00:46:38,824
black holes which fall somewhere in between. Well,

1201
00:46:38,824 --> 00:46:40,204
they all will kill you.

1202
00:46:43,224 --> 00:46:43,724
So

1203
00:46:47,144 --> 00:46:50,505
the main study, properties of light, intermediate mass

1204
00:46:50,505 --> 00:46:53,884
black hole candidates, and Ligo Virgo's third observing

1205
00:46:54,025 --> 00:46:54,480
run.

1206
00:46:55,119 --> 00:46:57,679
Oh my god. They found that the detected

1207
00:46:57,679 --> 00:46:59,460
gravitation aways came from

1208
00:46:59,840 --> 00:47:03,119
mergers of black holes weighing in between 103

1209
00:47:03,119 --> 00:47:05,699
times the mass of the sun. Pretty big.

1210
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,719
But according, you know, space is almost nothing.

1211
00:47:08,719 --> 00:47:08,960
But

1212
00:47:10,784 --> 00:47:13,505
so Earth based detections like LIGO can only

1213
00:47:13,505 --> 00:47:15,505
catch a brief moment of the final collision

1214
00:47:15,505 --> 00:47:18,304
of these lighter intermediate mass holes, make it

1215
00:47:18,304 --> 00:47:19,605
under hard to understand.

1216
00:47:21,824 --> 00:47:24,304
So, anyway, they're they're gonna look at more

1217
00:47:24,304 --> 00:47:25,480
of this. This.

1218
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:27,260
We know so little.

1219
00:47:27,640 --> 00:47:29,720
We really do. We know so little what's

1220
00:47:29,720 --> 00:47:31,260
really going on out in space.

1221
00:47:31,800 --> 00:47:33,180
We're trying to do it.

1222
00:47:33,720 --> 00:47:34,539
Apple TV,

1223
00:47:35,559 --> 00:47:36,300
you know, privacy

1224
00:47:39,494 --> 00:47:41,974
you know, we're we're what what device should

1225
00:47:41,974 --> 00:47:42,795
we use?

1226
00:47:45,094 --> 00:47:47,175
And they're saying using Apple TV or an

1227
00:47:47,175 --> 00:47:49,434
Apple account means giving Apple more data.

1228
00:47:50,054 --> 00:47:51,434
Well, we forget.

1229
00:47:52,219 --> 00:47:54,859
Apple is very privacy focused. They really, really

1230
00:47:54,859 --> 00:47:57,500
are. So ours Technica team went and took

1231
00:47:57,500 --> 00:47:58,480
a look here.

1232
00:48:01,500 --> 00:48:03,179
And he says every time we ride in

1233
00:48:03,179 --> 00:48:05,739
our car about escalating advertising tracking on today's

1234
00:48:05,739 --> 00:48:07,679
TV, someone brings up the Apple TV.

1235
00:48:08,195 --> 00:48:10,434
Among smart TV streaming sticks and other streaming

1236
00:48:10,434 --> 00:48:12,594
device, Apple TVs are largely viewed as a

1237
00:48:12,594 --> 00:48:13,414
safe haven.

1238
00:48:13,875 --> 00:48:16,355
Just connect your TV just disconnect your TV

1239
00:48:16,355 --> 00:48:17,954
from the Internet and use an Apple TV

1240
00:48:17,954 --> 00:48:18,454
box.

1241
00:48:19,235 --> 00:48:21,494
That's the common guidance you'll hear from

1242
00:48:22,130 --> 00:48:24,289
folks for those seeking the joys of streaming

1243
00:48:24,289 --> 00:48:26,050
without giving up too much privacy. Based on

1244
00:48:26,050 --> 00:48:27,969
our research and expert, we've consulted the device

1245
00:48:27,969 --> 00:48:30,869
is pretty solid as Apple TVs offer significantly

1246
00:48:31,170 --> 00:48:33,670
more privacy than other streaming hardware providers.

1247
00:48:34,295 --> 00:48:36,295
But how private are Apple TV boxes really?

1248
00:48:36,295 --> 00:48:38,635
Apple TVs don't use automated content recognition,

1249
00:48:40,614 --> 00:48:43,094
ACR, a user track technology leveraged by nearly

1250
00:48:43,094 --> 00:48:45,414
all smart TVs and stream device, but could

1251
00:48:45,414 --> 00:48:46,155
that change?

1252
00:48:47,894 --> 00:48:50,750
So Apple TV does limit tracking out of

1253
00:48:50,750 --> 00:48:51,489
the box.

1254
00:48:52,109 --> 00:48:53,630
So there's a pretty good art this is

1255
00:48:53,630 --> 00:48:55,809
a pretty good write up. It's pretty long.

1256
00:48:56,349 --> 00:48:58,750
Essentially, the end of the article really is

1257
00:48:58,750 --> 00:48:59,889
is one thing.

1258
00:49:00,349 --> 00:49:03,389
Apple TVs are are are safer. They're safer

1259
00:49:03,389 --> 00:49:05,089
to use on almost any other

1260
00:49:07,644 --> 00:49:09,184
streaming stick. Meanwhile, in France,

1261
00:49:09,804 --> 00:49:13,264
France charged 25 suspects in crypto abduction case.

1262
00:49:13,324 --> 00:49:14,764
Of course, we had that happen here in

1263
00:49:14,764 --> 00:49:15,744
The United States.

1264
00:49:16,444 --> 00:49:18,764
Twenty Five people, including six minors, were charged

1265
00:49:18,764 --> 00:49:21,079
in Paris over a spat of kidnappings, attempted

1266
00:49:21,079 --> 00:49:23,340
deductions in France's cryptocurrency world.

1267
00:49:23,719 --> 00:49:25,880
18 people have been placed in pretrial detention,

1268
00:49:25,880 --> 00:49:27,800
three have requested deferred hearing, and four have

1269
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:29,019
been placed under judicial

1270
00:49:29,480 --> 00:49:29,980
supervision

1271
00:49:30,360 --> 00:49:31,579
with suspects ranging

1272
00:49:31,960 --> 00:49:34,565
ranging between 16 and 23 years old.

1273
00:49:35,344 --> 00:49:36,804
You brag about your crypto.

1274
00:49:37,985 --> 00:49:38,724
Guess what?

1275
00:49:40,065 --> 00:49:42,804
They kidnap you, have you enter your information,

1276
00:49:43,184 --> 00:49:45,344
and steal your Bitcoin. That's what was going

1277
00:49:45,344 --> 00:49:46,885
on in New Jersey.

1278
00:49:47,510 --> 00:49:49,829
Someone's trying to steal someone's half million dollars

1279
00:49:49,829 --> 00:49:50,570
in crypto.

1280
00:49:52,230 --> 00:49:54,570
How much crypto do you have, Todd? None.

1281
00:49:57,750 --> 00:49:58,650
I have Satoshis,

1282
00:49:59,804 --> 00:50:01,405
but I don't get access to them. You

1283
00:50:01,405 --> 00:50:02,764
have to be inside my house to get

1284
00:50:02,764 --> 00:50:03,744
access to them,

1285
00:50:04,684 --> 00:50:05,984
and good luck with that.

1286
00:50:07,724 --> 00:50:09,405
Actually, even then, you have to know the

1287
00:50:09,405 --> 00:50:10,925
password of my computers. You have to know

1288
00:50:10,925 --> 00:50:12,900
a whole bunch of other stuff. Good luck.

1289
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,480
Salman Rusty. Do you know who Salman Rusty

1290
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:21,139
is? I have Salman Rusty's book.

1291
00:50:22,639 --> 00:50:23,860
The book that was,

1292
00:50:24,559 --> 00:50:25,539
written that

1293
00:50:26,015 --> 00:50:26,894
had him on a

1294
00:50:28,335 --> 00:50:30,355
that they were drunk trying to kill him.

1295
00:50:31,695 --> 00:50:33,934
And, actually, he lost his eye because of

1296
00:50:33,934 --> 00:50:34,594
that book.

1297
00:50:36,494 --> 00:50:39,135
Salman Rushdie said that authors are safe from

1298
00:50:39,135 --> 00:50:40,355
the threat of AI

1299
00:50:40,670 --> 00:50:42,269
until the moment it can create a book

1300
00:50:42,269 --> 00:50:43,489
that makes people laugh.

1301
00:50:44,590 --> 00:50:46,430
Rusty said he had never tried AI and

1302
00:50:46,430 --> 00:50:48,210
liked to pretend it didn't exist.

1303
00:50:49,230 --> 00:50:51,550
But the problem AI had was that it

1304
00:50:51,550 --> 00:50:53,170
couldn't make up its own jokes.

1305
00:50:53,664 --> 00:50:55,125
There's no sense of humor.

1306
00:50:55,824 --> 00:50:57,264
You don't wanna hear a joke told by

1307
00:50:57,264 --> 00:50:59,105
Chet GBT. If there's a moment when there's

1308
00:50:59,105 --> 00:51:00,864
a funny book written by Chet GBT, I

1309
00:51:00,864 --> 00:51:01,764
think we're screwed.

1310
00:51:04,944 --> 00:51:05,444
So,

1311
00:51:05,744 --> 00:51:08,390
Rusty was making his most high profile in

1312
00:51:08,390 --> 00:51:10,630
person appearance in The UK since a stabbing

1313
00:51:10,630 --> 00:51:12,390
in The United States while he was on

1314
00:51:12,390 --> 00:51:14,630
stage left him blind in the right eye.

1315
00:51:14,630 --> 00:51:16,710
Of course, I I didn't realize that that

1316
00:51:16,710 --> 00:51:18,410
happened here in The United States.

1317
00:51:23,664 --> 00:51:26,065
They tried to hit they kill him because

1318
00:51:26,065 --> 00:51:27,045
of his book.

1319
00:51:30,625 --> 00:51:31,125
So,

1320
00:51:32,144 --> 00:51:34,864
again, I I have that book that he

1321
00:51:34,864 --> 00:51:36,724
wrote. I've never cracked the cover.

1322
00:51:37,269 --> 00:51:39,369
It's in its original format.

1323
00:51:42,150 --> 00:51:44,309
Google plans to appeal the antitrust ruling against

1324
00:51:44,309 --> 00:51:46,630
its search engine dominance here in United States.

1325
00:51:46,630 --> 00:51:47,289
The company

1326
00:51:47,670 --> 00:51:49,670
argued the federal court's decision was wrong and

1327
00:51:49,670 --> 00:51:51,750
would hurt consumers. Of course, they're going to

1328
00:51:51,750 --> 00:51:52,250
appeal.

1329
00:51:55,135 --> 00:51:57,695
Isn't it no no surprise that they're going

1330
00:51:57,695 --> 00:51:58,355
to appeal?

1331
00:51:58,815 --> 00:52:00,974
They they don't want to have to divest

1332
00:52:00,974 --> 00:52:01,474
themselves

1333
00:52:01,855 --> 00:52:02,514
of Chrome

1334
00:52:02,974 --> 00:52:04,675
or whatever else is imposed.

1335
00:52:07,320 --> 00:52:09,559
Now this next article over on Computer World,

1336
00:52:09,559 --> 00:52:11,579
I am going to unequivocally,

1337
00:52:12,119 --> 00:52:12,619
absolutely

1338
00:52:14,039 --> 00:52:15,960
just say this is this is not the

1339
00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:16,460
case.

1340
00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,739
Title is AI chatbots deliver minimal productivity

1341
00:52:22,039 --> 00:52:22,539
gains.

1342
00:52:23,804 --> 00:52:25,965
For most jobs, AI chatbots only save about

1343
00:52:25,965 --> 00:52:28,045
3% of work time with little impact on

1344
00:52:28,045 --> 00:52:30,925
wages and overall economic benefit according to a

1345
00:52:30,925 --> 00:52:31,984
new study. Well,

1346
00:52:33,164 --> 00:52:33,664
okay.

1347
00:52:35,949 --> 00:52:36,849
Believe me.

1348
00:52:37,949 --> 00:52:39,789
If you're a business owner and you believe

1349
00:52:39,789 --> 00:52:40,289
this,

1350
00:52:40,829 --> 00:52:41,329
then

1351
00:52:41,869 --> 00:52:43,650
you will not be here in ten years.

1352
00:52:47,150 --> 00:52:47,594
Just

1353
00:52:48,074 --> 00:52:51,034
the usage of a couple of times I've

1354
00:52:51,034 --> 00:52:51,775
used ChatGPT

1355
00:52:52,795 --> 00:52:54,494
for doing analysis on

1356
00:52:54,875 --> 00:52:55,375
stuff,

1357
00:52:55,835 --> 00:52:56,655
deep analysis

1358
00:52:57,755 --> 00:52:58,815
on real data,

1359
00:53:02,070 --> 00:53:02,570
Incredible.

1360
00:53:02,950 --> 00:53:03,590
If I had

1361
00:53:04,150 --> 00:53:05,610
as a small business owner,

1362
00:53:05,910 --> 00:53:07,530
if I had a data analysis

1363
00:53:07,829 --> 00:53:10,070
team, in other words, bunch of people that

1364
00:53:10,070 --> 00:53:10,890
have undergraduate

1365
00:53:11,590 --> 00:53:14,170
and graduate level data analysis skills,

1366
00:53:17,885 --> 00:53:19,565
they probably would be using this tool too

1367
00:53:19,565 --> 00:53:21,804
to get data analysis. I'm using I'm getting

1368
00:53:21,804 --> 00:53:22,944
incredible data,

1369
00:53:23,724 --> 00:53:25,905
making able to make great decisions

1370
00:53:26,684 --> 00:53:29,244
on product flow, what to do next, where

1371
00:53:29,244 --> 00:53:30,065
are we headed,

1372
00:53:30,684 --> 00:53:33,329
doing analysis of lots of stuff.

1373
00:53:35,969 --> 00:53:38,309
The analysis piece is where it's at.

1374
00:53:39,170 --> 00:53:41,190
Now we can write blog posts,

1375
00:53:41,969 --> 00:53:43,190
helping us write,

1376
00:53:45,090 --> 00:53:46,469
copy for our

1377
00:53:46,849 --> 00:53:47,349
manuals.

1378
00:53:49,364 --> 00:53:50,184
Take a screenshot

1379
00:53:50,485 --> 00:53:51,625
of a a UI.

1380
00:53:53,364 --> 00:53:55,445
Go into upload it in the chat g

1381
00:53:55,445 --> 00:53:56,824
p t. Explain

1382
00:53:57,204 --> 00:53:58,105
what the

1383
00:53:59,364 --> 00:54:02,119
the menu is, the purpose of the menu,

1384
00:54:03,859 --> 00:54:06,420
and say write the manual. If you have

1385
00:54:06,420 --> 00:54:08,420
any questions on any of the fields, ask

1386
00:54:08,420 --> 00:54:08,920
me.

1387
00:54:09,219 --> 00:54:11,780
Nine out of 10 times, doesn't ask me.

1388
00:54:11,780 --> 00:54:13,239
Write to amazing

1389
00:54:14,424 --> 00:54:15,244
product manual.

1390
00:54:16,025 --> 00:54:17,464
All I have to do is drop in

1391
00:54:17,464 --> 00:54:17,964
pictures,

1392
00:54:18,824 --> 00:54:19,644
point arrows,

1393
00:54:20,904 --> 00:54:21,404
incredible

1394
00:54:21,944 --> 00:54:23,164
productivity gain,

1395
00:54:23,944 --> 00:54:26,424
saving me hours and hours and hours. Whoever

1396
00:54:26,424 --> 00:54:27,059
wrote this

1397
00:54:27,619 --> 00:54:29,400
has not used AI very

1398
00:54:32,980 --> 00:54:33,480
much.

1399
00:54:34,579 --> 00:54:35,079
I

1400
00:54:35,460 --> 00:54:36,760
I just don't believe it.

1401
00:54:37,300 --> 00:54:39,320
Credit gains of three to 7%.

1402
00:54:40,980 --> 00:54:43,755
We have I I have I have emboldened

1403
00:54:43,755 --> 00:54:44,494
my team.

1404
00:54:44,954 --> 00:54:46,795
We are going to be an AI first

1405
00:54:46,795 --> 00:54:47,295
company.

1406
00:54:47,674 --> 00:54:49,835
In other words, we're gonna use the AI

1407
00:54:49,835 --> 00:54:52,894
tools to every possibility that we can.

1408
00:54:54,155 --> 00:54:55,454
Use human

1409
00:54:55,755 --> 00:54:58,414
subject matter experts to validate the data,

1410
00:54:59,250 --> 00:55:00,710
review, cross review,

1411
00:55:01,250 --> 00:55:02,869
and put information out.

1412
00:55:05,250 --> 00:55:07,110
It's been hugely effective.

1413
00:55:09,170 --> 00:55:09,670
Hugely.

1414
00:55:11,809 --> 00:55:13,030
And so effective

1415
00:55:14,210 --> 00:55:16,085
that one of my team members,

1416
00:55:20,304 --> 00:55:22,545
decided that they didn't wanna work forty hours

1417
00:55:22,545 --> 00:55:24,625
a week anymore. They wanted to cut hours

1418
00:55:24,625 --> 00:55:25,125
back,

1419
00:55:25,505 --> 00:55:27,505
spend more time with grandchildren. You do that

1420
00:55:27,505 --> 00:55:28,324
kind of stuff.

1421
00:55:28,784 --> 00:55:31,079
And I'm getting forty hours,

1422
00:55:31,480 --> 00:55:31,980
of

1423
00:55:32,359 --> 00:55:35,739
value of work in about twenty five hours.

1424
00:55:39,880 --> 00:55:41,980
That's how much value it's adding.

1425
00:55:42,519 --> 00:55:44,914
At least 25 or 30%.

1426
00:55:47,535 --> 00:55:48,035
So

1427
00:55:48,494 --> 00:55:49,954
I don't believe any of this.

1428
00:55:51,295 --> 00:55:53,454
It's they talk to people that were not

1429
00:55:53,454 --> 00:55:56,114
using AI, that weren't leaning into it.

1430
00:55:56,575 --> 00:55:58,159
That's that's the case

1431
00:55:58,619 --> 00:56:00,319
here. % the case.

1432
00:56:01,179 --> 00:56:01,679
So,

1433
00:56:02,460 --> 00:56:04,299
you know, I I I'll let you folks

1434
00:56:04,299 --> 00:56:05,679
review it. But, again,

1435
00:56:07,019 --> 00:56:07,900
I I don't,

1436
00:56:09,099 --> 00:56:10,799
I don't agree at all,

1437
00:56:11,434 --> 00:56:12,974
with this particular piece.

1438
00:56:14,155 --> 00:56:14,655
So

1439
00:56:14,954 --> 00:56:15,994
we're gonna wrap this up here in a

1440
00:56:15,994 --> 00:56:17,614
second, but I wanna thank all of you.

1441
00:56:17,675 --> 00:56:19,775
Make sure you get over geatoncentral.com.

1442
00:56:21,195 --> 00:56:23,355
We got great articles being put up by

1443
00:56:23,355 --> 00:56:25,619
my team. And, actually, we ran out of

1444
00:56:25,619 --> 00:56:27,559
editing money last month, so

1445
00:56:28,579 --> 00:56:30,099
that will kick in again here in a

1446
00:56:30,099 --> 00:56:31,699
few days. And I gotta tell the team

1447
00:56:31,699 --> 00:56:34,260
space the articles out a little bit because

1448
00:56:34,260 --> 00:56:35,400
we do have a budget,

1449
00:56:36,179 --> 00:56:38,260
on how many articles that, we put up

1450
00:56:38,260 --> 00:56:39,079
on the website,

1451
00:56:39,954 --> 00:56:41,094
at a given time,

1452
00:56:41,554 --> 00:56:42,934
just because of the,

1453
00:56:43,714 --> 00:56:46,214
the fine financial piece of this.

1454
00:56:47,074 --> 00:56:47,574
So,

1455
00:56:49,714 --> 00:56:50,214
definitely,

1456
00:56:50,675 --> 00:56:53,315
act actually, there's I should have refreshed the

1457
00:56:53,315 --> 00:56:53,815
page.

1458
00:56:55,739 --> 00:56:57,099
You know, we've got a lot of great

1459
00:56:57,099 --> 00:56:57,920
data here.

1460
00:56:59,019 --> 00:57:01,119

1463
00:57:06,300 --> 00:57:06,800
Definitely,

1464
00:57:07,260 --> 00:57:09,500
I wanna thank all of you for, again,

1475
00:57:28,170 --> 00:57:29,150

being here. I'll be back with you on

1478
00:57:32,570 --> 00:57:33,070
Thursday.

1479
00:57:33,690 --> 00:57:37,050
Yes. Back with you Thursday on another another

1480
00:57:37,050 --> 00:57:38,590
edition of the Geekness Central

1481
00:57:38,890 --> 00:57:39,390
podcast.

1482
00:57:41,824 --> 00:57:43,984
And, definitely check out I'll have some probably

1483
00:57:43,984 --> 00:57:45,984
some new links to some new new content

1484
00:57:45,984 --> 00:57:46,724
I'm creating.

1485
00:57:47,184 --> 00:57:50,244
My podcast news and, podcast myth show

1486
00:57:50,545 --> 00:57:52,164
is off to a pretty good start.

1487
00:57:52,864 --> 00:57:53,344
And,

1488
00:57:54,304 --> 00:57:57,010
if you wanna keep following along on that,

1489
00:57:57,010 --> 00:57:59,170
it'll be fun. It's gonna be mostly myths

1490
00:57:59,170 --> 00:58:01,329
in the beginning, and then we'll start we'll

1491
00:58:01,329 --> 00:58:03,190
we'll filter in some news

1492
00:58:03,650 --> 00:58:05,409
because those are almost gonna be like two

1493
00:58:05,409 --> 00:58:05,909
separate

1494
00:58:06,530 --> 00:58:07,589
episode types.

1495
00:58:08,864 --> 00:58:09,265
And,

1496
00:58:09,664 --> 00:58:11,385
I think you'll see a pattern of some

1497
00:58:11,385 --> 00:58:12,724
of the stuff that we're doing.

1498
00:58:13,425 --> 00:58:15,744
Again, everything we're putting on YouTube is available

1499
00:58:15,744 --> 00:58:18,545
as an audio podcast as well. We're staying

1500
00:58:18,545 --> 00:58:19,525
true to heart.

1501
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:21,760
It's at least in the content that I'm

1502
00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:23,280
creating. Some of the teams creating some other

1503
00:58:23,280 --> 00:58:25,839
stuff that's gonna be strictly YouTube. You really

1504
00:58:25,839 --> 00:58:27,460
can't see or hear,

1505
00:58:28,000 --> 00:58:29,359
some of the content. Most of the stuff

1506
00:58:29,359 --> 00:58:31,380
I'm do hearing it is just as valuable

1507
00:58:31,440 --> 00:58:32,819
as as seeing it.

1508
00:58:34,074 --> 00:58:35,755
We're making a decision on the new media

1509
00:58:35,755 --> 00:58:37,215
show on what we're gonna do.

1510
00:58:37,914 --> 00:58:39,675
Rob is kind of trying to decide if

1511
00:58:39,675 --> 00:58:41,195
he's gonna pull back a little bit or

1512
00:58:41,195 --> 00:58:41,695
not.

1513
00:58:42,155 --> 00:58:44,555
So, time will tell. I'm creating enough content.

1514
00:58:44,555 --> 00:58:46,175
I'm busy one way or the other.

1515
00:58:46,710 --> 00:58:49,429
And, wrong with the regular JOB of everything

1516
00:58:49,429 --> 00:58:52,389
else that goes on. Thus, my dilemma, I'm

1517
00:58:52,389 --> 00:58:53,349
making sure that,

1518
00:58:54,630 --> 00:58:55,929
I have a really good,

1519
00:58:58,230 --> 00:58:59,210
solid connection,

1520
00:58:59,909 --> 00:59:02,465
whenever I travel again. Okay. It's been my

1521
00:59:02,465 --> 00:59:02,965
pleasure.

1522
00:59:03,344 --> 00:59:05,425
