1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,440 Speaker 1: Let's say good morning now to the host of Rich 2 00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:05,800 Speaker 1: on tech on KFI. It's KTLA's tech reporter Rich Demiro. 3 00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,479 Speaker 2: Good morning, Rich, Good morning to you Amy. 4 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:15,120 Speaker 1: Okay, so Apple's got a new iPhone update and there's 5 00:00:15,120 --> 00:00:17,880 Speaker 1: some fun little tricks. I love. I love learning new 6 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:19,800 Speaker 1: tricks on my iPhone. 7 00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 3: Yes, and there are a few. And the number one 8 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:24,720 Speaker 3: question I get is do I do the update? And 9 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:27,360 Speaker 3: I know I've gotten a lot of emails from people saying, look, 10 00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,240 Speaker 3: the last update messed up my battery life. I don't 11 00:00:30,320 --> 00:00:32,559 Speaker 3: like the way it looks. But if you stop doing 12 00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 3: the updates now, you're not getting all the fixes. And 13 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:36,920 Speaker 3: this is a big one because it's iOS twenty six 14 00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,680 Speaker 3: point one, so it's the biggest update since they came 15 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:43,120 Speaker 3: out with this new iOS liquid glass. But here's the 16 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,360 Speaker 3: funny thing. Apple is sort of admitting that liquid glass 17 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:49,040 Speaker 3: is not for everyone. So there is a new setting. 18 00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,440 Speaker 3: If you hate liquid glass, there's a new setting under 19 00:00:52,760 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 3: settings and then display it says liquid glass, and you 20 00:00:56,240 --> 00:00:59,760 Speaker 3: can now have a tinted mode that basically gets rid 21 00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,920 Speaker 3: of the transparency. So if you don't like liquid glass 22 00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:05,200 Speaker 3: and the way it's see through, go into your settings 23 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,480 Speaker 3: after you do the update, go into display and look 24 00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:10,960 Speaker 3: for the new liquid glass option and change it to tinted. 25 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:13,800 Speaker 1: Okay, so they're basically saying you can go back to 26 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 1: the old way because we may have screwed up on 27 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 1: this one. 28 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,679 Speaker 3: They may have realized that not everyone likes everything to 29 00:01:20,720 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 3: be see through because it can be tricky to see. 30 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 2: So that's number one. A couple other little things. 31 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,280 Speaker 3: Number two is that you can turn off the lock 32 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,840 Speaker 3: screen camera swipe, so if you're always opening up the 33 00:01:31,880 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 3: camera accidentally, you can turn that off for the first 34 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 3: time ever. That's also in settings. I personally love that feature, 35 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,200 Speaker 3: so I'm not turning that off. And then there's a 36 00:01:41,240 --> 00:01:46,200 Speaker 3: new slide to stop button instead of the old snooze 37 00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:49,320 Speaker 3: button and stop so instead of tapping, now you have 38 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,680 Speaker 3: to slide to turn off your alarm completely, which you 39 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 3: know is probably good for those groggy folks like us. 40 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, because I've done that before where I just 41 00:01:58,160 --> 00:02:00,000 Speaker 1: turn the whole thing off and then you're kind of 42 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 1: in trouble. 43 00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 3: It's always my fear, I you know, I don't, I've 44 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 3: not done that in a long time, but it's always 45 00:02:06,640 --> 00:02:08,240 Speaker 3: my fear every single night when I go to sleep. 46 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:09,800 Speaker 3: My god, I'm gonna turn off this alarm and I'm 47 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,440 Speaker 3: not gonna I'm never gonna wake up. 48 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: So it's a slide off kind of like when you 49 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 1: want to power off, you have to slide same thing exactly. 50 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,519 Speaker 3: So it's like a little bit more work, which makes 51 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:21,519 Speaker 3: a lot of sense because you can easily reach over 52 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 3: and like press pause, you know, or or stop by accident. 53 00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:28,680 Speaker 1: Absolutely, Okay, so then we'll go from the Apple phone 54 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: over to the Apple Watch. What's up with that? Okay, 55 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:34,200 Speaker 1: I should say, what's app? 56 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:37,919 Speaker 2: Could I see what you did there? I like it? 57 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:42,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, WhatsApp, you know, messaging app used by billions of 58 00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 3: people worldwide. I think is finally on the Apple Watch. Yes, 59 00:02:46,760 --> 00:02:49,720 Speaker 3: people love WhatsApp, and I would. I love it in theory. 60 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 3: I wish everyone would use it because I think it's 61 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 3: such a great messaging app because it is end to 62 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,679 Speaker 3: end ENCRYPTID, it supports messages, it supports calls, and now 63 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 3: you can do all of that right from your wrist. 64 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:04,519 Speaker 3: I also think this is good for kids, because you know, 65 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 3: a lot of parents give their kids an Apple Watch 66 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 3: with no phone, and so the fact that you can 67 00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 3: now have an option for messaging, that's not just I 68 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 3: Message is also really nice, but basically Meta is saying 69 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,919 Speaker 3: that you could do pretty much everything you do on 70 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 3: the app, you can now do from your wrist, which 71 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 3: is much better than the previous method of Yes, you 72 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 3: might be saying, rich, I've always gotten WhatsApp notifications on 73 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 3: my watch. 74 00:03:27,520 --> 00:03:30,440 Speaker 2: Those were just notifications. This is like full support for 75 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,040 Speaker 2: the app, so it's all there. 76 00:03:32,440 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 4: Go ahead and download it to the Apple Watch if 77 00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,080 Speaker 4: you like WhatsApp, okay, And so it sounds to me 78 00:03:37,280 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 4: like it's what I already do have with my Apple Watch, 79 00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:44,960 Speaker 4: because I do get pictures and messages and I can 80 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 4: do emojis and stuff. 81 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,240 Speaker 3: With I Message. But with WhatsApp, now you're getting full 82 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 3: support for everything. So you can basically do everything you 83 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 3: could do on the phone on the Apple Watch. And 84 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,760 Speaker 3: it's all still encrypted, which is really nice. 85 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:02,800 Speaker 1: Okay, and you don't have to have the phone. 86 00:04:01,720 --> 00:04:03,880 Speaker 3: Now, well, I mean, if you have cellular, I mean 87 00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 3: obviously there's a whole nother yeah thing there. 88 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,960 Speaker 1: Okay, all right, So we couldn't go a segment without 89 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:15,560 Speaker 1: talking about AI. And now we've got AI on a 90 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 1: social media platform, and I'm just like going, I got 91 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: to hear more about this because it sounds like it's 92 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 1: just a fake social platform. 93 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:25,960 Speaker 3: Yes, I can't believe you haven't downloaded it. Ye, you 94 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,920 Speaker 3: have an iPhone, You've had it for a month. This 95 00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:30,920 Speaker 3: is Sora, And I'm not kidding. When we first talked 96 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:33,479 Speaker 3: about this, and I think we talked about it, I 97 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,200 Speaker 3: didn't see the appeal. I was like, who is going 98 00:04:35,279 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 3: to download an app like a social media app filled 99 00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 3: with deep fakes? And sure enough, it's actually quite entertaining. 100 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:46,240 Speaker 3: It's called Sora. It's been available on the iPhone for 101 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,159 Speaker 3: a month now. It is finally available on Android. So 102 00:04:49,160 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 3: if you have an Android phone you've been wanting to 103 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 3: try this Sora app, which is by the way, owned 104 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,719 Speaker 3: by open Ai, which are the makers of chatch Ebt. 105 00:04:57,240 --> 00:04:59,919 Speaker 3: It's really cool because basically you can make short videos 106 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 3: anything you want, within reason, and they can include your 107 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,160 Speaker 3: face and your voice. So it's just a whole other 108 00:05:06,200 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 3: way of thinking about social media with these wild kind 109 00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 3: of circumstances, and you see your friends in them, and 110 00:05:12,560 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 3: so I mean, me and my kids just sit there 111 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:15,000 Speaker 3: and we make them. 112 00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 2: And sure it's scary that it's all your. 113 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 3: Likeness, but it's also really interesting what it does Okay. 114 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:24,280 Speaker 1: So it's sort of like a high tech version of JibJab. 115 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 2: Oh my, look at you. Yeah, it's basically an AI. 116 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 3: Version of JibJab, except you know, your mouth actually moves. 117 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 3: It looks like you like. I just sit there and 118 00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,400 Speaker 3: I make videos of like the wildest stuff, and I'm 119 00:05:36,440 --> 00:05:39,400 Speaker 3: just like, Okay, that's interesting. It's not one hundred percent perfect, 120 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 3: but it's definitely fun. And you don't need an invite anymore. 121 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 3: You used to need an invite to get on this thing. 122 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 3: So if you want Sora on your iPhone or Android, 123 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:48,040 Speaker 3: go ahead and get it and see what the craze 124 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:48,520 Speaker 3: is all about. 125 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 1: Okay, I think I might have to check it out 126 00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:53,039 Speaker 1: just because it just it also freaks me up because, 127 00:05:53,200 --> 00:05:55,039 Speaker 1: like you said, there's nothing real about it. 128 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 3: It's all AI no, and it takes you a second 129 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,920 Speaker 3: to realize. You're like, oh my gosh, people put themselves 130 00:06:00,960 --> 00:06:01,839 Speaker 3: in these situations. 131 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,480 Speaker 2: Oh, it's fake, and. 132 00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: So it's fun fake, okay.
