1
00:00:07,133 --> 00:00:10,453
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Saturday Morning with Jack team podcast

2
00:00:10,613 --> 00:00:11,693
Speaker 1: from News Talks AB.

3
00:00:12,773 --> 00:00:15,493
Speaker 2: It's time to catch out with that texpert Paul Stenhouse

4
00:00:15,573 --> 00:00:15,813
Speaker 2: is here.

5
00:00:15,973 --> 00:00:16,493
Speaker 1: Yield to Paul.

6
00:00:16,613 --> 00:00:17,373
Speaker 3: Good morning Jack.

7
00:00:17,533 --> 00:00:22,693
Speaker 2: Okay, every time they have tried to introduce some techno glasses,

8
00:00:22,773 --> 00:00:25,093
Speaker 2: some wearable that you put on your face in the

9
00:00:25,173 --> 00:00:28,333
Speaker 2: digital age, it always seems to fail. So explain to

10
00:00:28,413 --> 00:00:32,373
Speaker 2: me why you reckon. Maybe our next smartphone is going

11
00:00:32,453 --> 00:00:33,173
Speaker 2: to be on our face.

12
00:00:33,733 --> 00:00:39,133
Speaker 3: Yes, so Meta actually has made kind of these face glasses,

13
00:00:39,173 --> 00:00:42,773
Speaker 3: if you will. Kind of cool, right, Okay, they have

14
00:00:42,853 --> 00:00:45,173
Speaker 3: some glasses. Okay, here we go. So I have a

15
00:00:45,213 --> 00:00:48,413
Speaker 3: friend of mine. He's got the Meta ray Van sunglasses

16
00:00:48,773 --> 00:00:51,653
Speaker 3: and he really likes them because they have an in

17
00:00:51,813 --> 00:00:54,493
Speaker 3: built speaker and so you can be wearing your sunglasses

18
00:00:54,493 --> 00:00:58,013
Speaker 3: and listening to your music and the right there. Now,

19
00:00:58,053 --> 00:01:00,053
Speaker 3: does he use the camera that's built in? Does he

20
00:01:00,173 --> 00:01:02,293
Speaker 3: use the AI? Okay, no, he uses it to listen

21
00:01:02,373 --> 00:01:05,773
Speaker 3: to music. But it's a very good gateway, right because

22
00:01:05,893 --> 00:01:10,733
Speaker 3: Meta believe that, yes, the future of our phone as

23
00:01:10,813 --> 00:01:13,093
Speaker 3: it is now will we will wear it and we

24
00:01:13,133 --> 00:01:15,853
Speaker 3: won't be looking at a screen, but the screen will

25
00:01:15,933 --> 00:01:19,693
Speaker 3: just be embodied into our every day, and we'll be

26
00:01:19,733 --> 00:01:24,413
Speaker 3: seeing holograms of information, maybe even avatars of our friends

27
00:01:24,413 --> 00:01:27,453
Speaker 3: and colleagues, and of course Jack right there at our

28
00:01:27,733 --> 00:01:31,133
Speaker 3: beacon core will be voice access to some AI two.

29
00:01:31,773 --> 00:01:34,613
Speaker 3: And I will say that I know that we've talked

30
00:01:34,613 --> 00:01:36,573
Speaker 3: about this for a long time, and I will say

31
00:01:36,613 --> 00:01:40,693
Speaker 3: the tech this time actually looks pretty good. First of all,

32
00:01:40,733 --> 00:01:44,133
Speaker 3: I think the glasses actually look reasonably attractive. We're in

33
00:01:44,213 --> 00:01:48,573
Speaker 3: a Google glass. They didn't look attraction that these ones,

34
00:01:48,613 --> 00:01:52,933
Speaker 3: though reasonably lightweight. They have a projection screen that's of

35
00:01:53,013 --> 00:01:55,053
Speaker 3: high enough quality you can actually do things like a

36
00:01:55,133 --> 00:01:58,093
Speaker 3: video call on it. And they've got some pretty cool

37
00:01:58,133 --> 00:02:01,373
Speaker 3: teche around it as well, including a wristband that you

38
00:02:01,373 --> 00:02:03,253
Speaker 3: put on kind of looks like a Fitbit without a

39
00:02:03,253 --> 00:02:05,733
Speaker 3: screen or something like that, and it interprets your hand

40
00:02:05,813 --> 00:02:08,333
Speaker 3: signals and do actions and gestures.

41
00:02:08,733 --> 00:02:09,733
Speaker 2: Right these new.

42
00:02:09,653 --> 00:02:13,693
Speaker 3: Glasses, the Meta has teased us and said these are

43
00:02:13,693 --> 00:02:17,293
Speaker 3: going to be the future, the costing Meta ten thousand

44
00:02:17,333 --> 00:02:22,453
Speaker 3: dollars each to produce. So we're not there, yeah, okay,

45
00:02:22,533 --> 00:02:24,773
Speaker 3: but they do believe that we are on the path.

46
00:02:24,893 --> 00:02:27,293
Speaker 3: And I guess if you want to toast the future,

47
00:02:27,733 --> 00:02:29,653
Speaker 3: I guess the rayband sunglasses are the way to go

48
00:02:29,653 --> 00:02:30,093
Speaker 3: for right now?

49
00:02:30,213 --> 00:02:31,653
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, okay, So what we're going to do is

50
00:02:31,653 --> 00:02:33,533
Speaker 2: we'll put a photo up online so that people can

51
00:02:33,573 --> 00:02:34,933
Speaker 2: have a bit of a look. They do have a

52
00:02:34,933 --> 00:02:39,213
Speaker 2: slight kind of Poindextery quality the frames obviously, the fiddle

53
00:02:39,253 --> 00:02:42,053
Speaker 2: of that technology inside them, the frames that gay they

54
00:02:42,093 --> 00:02:42,813
Speaker 2: come pretty.

55
00:02:42,573 --> 00:02:45,533
Speaker 3: Chunky, a little Clark kink.

56
00:02:45,613 --> 00:02:47,333
Speaker 2: Yes they are. That's a that's a really good way

57
00:02:47,373 --> 00:02:49,053
Speaker 2: to That's a really good way to put it. So

58
00:02:50,773 --> 00:02:53,213
Speaker 2: what sort of time frame would we be talking if

59
00:02:53,213 --> 00:02:55,453
Speaker 2: this was to be if these were to be produced

60
00:02:55,493 --> 00:02:58,613
Speaker 2: for the masses, when do you reckon? You know, it

61
00:02:58,693 --> 00:03:00,973
Speaker 2: might be in a slightly more attainable price range.

62
00:03:01,413 --> 00:03:03,373
Speaker 3: Yes, I think we're a good couple of years away

63
00:03:03,373 --> 00:03:06,813
Speaker 3: from this, right Yeah, yeah, ten thousand dollars is down

64
00:03:06,853 --> 00:03:08,333
Speaker 3: to like a thousand dollars I think is going to

65
00:03:08,373 --> 00:03:11,253
Speaker 3: take a little bit of time. Yeah, But Mark Secondberg

66
00:03:11,293 --> 00:03:13,813
Speaker 3: made a really funny point. Actually, he thought that the

67
00:03:14,053 --> 00:03:17,013
Speaker 3: technology to do the kind of projection and the holograms

68
00:03:17,053 --> 00:03:21,533
Speaker 3: and all that stuff would be before the AI, and

69
00:03:21,573 --> 00:03:23,293
Speaker 3: it's actually turned out to be the other way around.

70
00:03:23,333 --> 00:03:24,853
Speaker 3: The AI has managed to.

71
00:03:24,813 --> 00:03:29,213
Speaker 2: Beat interesting the other piece. Yeah okay, oh, that's really interesting. Now,

72
00:03:29,213 --> 00:03:32,733
Speaker 2: will a wildfire take out your dream home in the US.

73
00:03:32,773 --> 00:03:34,893
Speaker 2: Now you can go to the kind of the American

74
00:03:34,973 --> 00:03:37,493
Speaker 2: equivalent of one roof and find out.

75
00:03:38,413 --> 00:03:41,493
Speaker 3: Yeah, so Zillo is the website over here that people

76
00:03:41,533 --> 00:03:44,053
Speaker 3: go to, and Zillo has been a real leader. They

77
00:03:44,053 --> 00:03:45,973
Speaker 3: have they're going to be called a zestamate, which is

78
00:03:46,013 --> 00:03:49,533
Speaker 3: where they work out based on market conditions and demand

79
00:03:49,613 --> 00:03:51,333
Speaker 3: and other homes and all that good stuff, what your

80
00:03:51,373 --> 00:03:55,173
Speaker 3: home is worth. But now they're trying to figure out

81
00:03:55,413 --> 00:03:58,293
Speaker 3: what could happen to your home, both in terms of

82
00:03:59,013 --> 00:04:02,933
Speaker 3: climate disasters and your insurance cost over time. So it's

83
00:04:02,973 --> 00:04:05,613
Speaker 3: going to look at your risk score for things like

84
00:04:05,733 --> 00:04:09,933
Speaker 3: wildfire and flooding, wow, high winds and poor your quality.

85
00:04:10,173 --> 00:04:13,053
Speaker 3: So fun stat This hasn't rolled out quite yet. They're

86
00:04:13,053 --> 00:04:14,373
Speaker 3: on the process of rolling it out. It should be

87
00:04:14,453 --> 00:04:16,533
Speaker 3: rolled out before the end of the year. But of

88
00:04:16,573 --> 00:04:18,933
Speaker 3: all of the new listings that they added in August,

89
00:04:19,853 --> 00:04:23,293
Speaker 3: sixteen percent were at a major risk of a wildfire

90
00:04:23,813 --> 00:04:27,093
Speaker 3: and thirteen percent we're at a major risk of flooding.

91
00:04:28,053 --> 00:04:29,813
Speaker 3: So I think the insurance is going to get a

92
00:04:29,813 --> 00:04:31,453
Speaker 3: little more expensive over time.

93
00:04:31,613 --> 00:04:35,893
Speaker 2: This Yeah, yeah, that's remarkable, Okay, cool, Hey, thank you.
