00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,319
Speaker 1: term care and you guessed it, how AI is helping

27
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:44,840
Speaker 1: predict future health needs. Well, this is a very special

28
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 1: weekend for me and my family. My mom is in

29
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:52,720
Speaker 1: town number one, which is very exciting. Arrived yesterday, last

30
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:56,640
Speaker 1: minute thing, and you know, she gets off the plane.

31
00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 2: I was like, how was it.

32
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 1: She's like, well, it was great, except no, the whole

33
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: time I couldn't watch anything on my phone.

34
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 2: I said, well, what happened? Well, I don't know.

35
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,360
Speaker 1: Every time I take out my Bluetooth headphones and you know,

36
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 1: put them near my phone, they connect. This time they didn't.

37
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:12,560
Speaker 1: I said, well, was your phone in airplane mode?

38
00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,880
Speaker 2: And she said yeah. I said, well, the Bluetooth is

39
00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 2: probably off. So she sat there.

40
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,280
Speaker 1: I said, what about the seatback, you know, did you

41
00:02:19,320 --> 00:02:20,200
Speaker 1: watch anything on there?

42
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:20,359
Speaker 3: Oh?

43
00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 2: No, I didn't want to break anything. Mom.

44
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:24,919
Speaker 1: You're not going to like, you know, mess up the plane.

45
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,120
Speaker 1: You're not commanding the plane from your seatback entertainment. So

46
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,920
Speaker 1: she didn't want to touch the seatback entertainment. So she

47
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:32,920
Speaker 1: just sat there and read the whole time, which I

48
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 1: guess is fine, but I was cracking up also.

49
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 2: So this is kind of a long story, but long

50
00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:39,960
Speaker 2: story short.

51
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: I booked her in a premium class because it was

52
00:02:43,240 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 1: the same miles as economy class, and so I told her,

53
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,360
Speaker 1: I said, look, you get a meal, you get booze

54
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,280
Speaker 1: if you want it, you know, so here's what you do.

55
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 1: You get on the plane, you have a glass of wine,

56
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 1: you have your meal, and then you go to sleep.

57
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,680
Speaker 1: Because she loves to sleep on the plane, and so

58
00:02:56,800 --> 00:02:58,840
Speaker 1: I said, don't sleep right when you get on and

59
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,280
Speaker 1: so she goes, okay, okay. So I said, did you

60
00:03:01,280 --> 00:03:03,080
Speaker 1: gut your glass of wine? She goes, no, they didn't.

61
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: They didn't offer it. I said, what do you mean

62
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 1: that they're not going to offer it to you. They're

63
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:08,440
Speaker 1: not going to tell you because it would cost the

64
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: airline billions of dollars if they said, oh yeah, here

65
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: you can have a free drink, but you get it

66
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 1: if you ask for it. Anyway, so she didn't get

67
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:18,400
Speaker 1: the alcohol, but she did have her meal. And it

68
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: just cracks me up. My mom is she's a hibernator.

69
00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:24,880
Speaker 1: Flyer like some people just hibernate when they fly, Like

70
00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,160
Speaker 1: they get on the plane, they get in their seat,

71
00:03:27,320 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 1: they hunker down, and they don't do a thing. They

72
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,959
Speaker 1: don't get up to go to the bathroom. They don't

73
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:32,720
Speaker 1: do a thing. They just sit there. And that's how

74
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,480
Speaker 1: she is me. I take advantage of everything. I like

75
00:03:35,520 --> 00:03:37,520
Speaker 1: to walk around. I'll walk to the front of the plane,

76
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: the back of the plane, I'll stand there, I'll do

77
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:42,560
Speaker 1: some stretching exercises. I'll take advantage of all the food

78
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:45,600
Speaker 1: and drink I can anyway, and it always has to

79
00:03:45,640 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 1: be an aisle seat for me. It's also my son's

80
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:52,880
Speaker 1: birthday weekend. Oh my gosh, my son is turning fourteen

81
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 1: this weekend, which I cannot believe. Yes, I know, Parker,

82
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 1: Happy birthday. It's just unbelievable because I still remember driving

83
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,760
Speaker 1: home from the hospital with my son. I couldn't believe

84
00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:08,720
Speaker 1: they allowed me and my wife to just exit the

85
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,480
Speaker 1: hospital with a kid. I was like, this is a

86
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 1: human being. We're going to take care of him.

87
00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 4: Now.

88
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 2: We had a whole team of people at the hospital.

89
00:04:14,560 --> 00:04:17,640
Speaker 1: Now it's just us and I drove down Santa Monica

90
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 1: Boulevard so slow, you would not believe. You could probably

91
00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,080
Speaker 1: push a car faster than the way I drove because

92
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:25,200
Speaker 1: I was so nervous.

93
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 2: And now he's fourteen.

94
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: He's telling me he has a year and a half

95
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,360
Speaker 1: before he gets to start driving, which I can't believe.

96
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:32,800
Speaker 1: But the best part is this morning we went through

97
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:34,440
Speaker 1: all the pictures on Google Photos.

98
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 2: You put him up on the TV, and it's just amazing,

99
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 2: Like it truly is.

100
00:04:39,480 --> 00:04:42,360
Speaker 1: The idea that you have this memory bank on your

101
00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:44,719
Speaker 1: phone that you can just access at any time and

102
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:47,040
Speaker 1: bring you right back to that moment was just incredible.

103
00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 1: So that was really cool. And I also use Google

104
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,480
Speaker 1: AI to ask a couple of questions. I'm not kidding.

105
00:04:54,360 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 1: If you are not using Google AI to tap into

106
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: the data that you have in Google, you are not

107
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:03,560
Speaker 1: experiencing life life, because it is quite impressive. So I

108
00:05:03,680 --> 00:05:05,400
Speaker 1: just asked, you know a couple of things about my son,

109
00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,039
Speaker 1: like when was he born? It knew the date exactly, obviously,

110
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:09,880
Speaker 1: I knew that I was trying to figure out the time.

111
00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 1: It couldn't get that right, but it did get the date,

112
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,000
Speaker 1: and it got all the other surrounding information just perfectly.

113
00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,400
Speaker 1: And then I also asked my someone was asking me.

114
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,359
Speaker 1: A family member were saying, Hey, what hotel did you

115
00:05:20,360 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 1: stay at in New York City when you stayed last time?

116
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: And I couldn't remember the name. It was like the

117
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:27,240
Speaker 1: trip before the last and so I asked Google. I said, hey,

118
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,080
Speaker 1: what was the name of that hotel I stayed at

119
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:31,560
Speaker 1: in your Washington Park in New York City?

120
00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 2: And it got it. I could not believe it. So

121
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:35,839
Speaker 2: here is my new thesis.

122
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:39,520
Speaker 1: The AI that will win in the future is the

123
00:05:39,560 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: AI that has access to your data.

124
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:42,880
Speaker 2: So everyone is all.

125
00:05:42,920 --> 00:05:44,880
Speaker 1: You know, Google has an early lead because they've got

126
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:46,960
Speaker 1: access to our data. Chat g Ebt has an early

127
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,320
Speaker 1: lead because it's just really good, but it doesn't have

128
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:53,599
Speaker 1: access to all of your data. Apple has been really

129
00:05:53,760 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 1: kind of knocked around right now because they are not

130
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,520
Speaker 1: good with anything with AI.

131
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:00,160
Speaker 2: But here's my new theory.

132
00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,600
Speaker 1: They will have no problem because guess what, so many

133
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 1: millions upon millions of people have all of their data

134
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,440
Speaker 1: stored in Apple mail, in messages and in photos and

135
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: in notes. So Apple has secretly been building one of

136
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:16,800
Speaker 1: the best AI databases. They just need the right AI

137
00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 1: to be able to tap into that. So I know

138
00:06:19,240 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: Apple has been kind of you know just washed around,

139
00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,719
Speaker 1: knocked around for not having the best AI. But once

140
00:06:24,760 --> 00:06:27,480
Speaker 1: they do and they figure this out, they will take

141
00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:31,080
Speaker 1: a very commanding lead in this AI world because they've

142
00:06:31,080 --> 00:06:32,880
Speaker 1: got access to the data. When you could just ask

143
00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:35,560
Speaker 1: your iPhone, hey, what was that hotel I stayed at

144
00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:37,800
Speaker 1: in New York City last time? Or Hey, show me

145
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,640
Speaker 1: my best picture from Hawaii. And it's able to do that,

146
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:43,400
Speaker 1: which it can do little pieces of that, it will.

147
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:44,560
Speaker 2: Be very very powerful.

148
00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,680
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this new app that has just been

149
00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:51,839
Speaker 1: kind of commanding the tech world, at least in my world.

150
00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:55,280
Speaker 1: It's called Bitchat. Yeah, the name is kind of interesting,

151
00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:57,520
Speaker 1: but once you get past that, the tech behind it

152
00:06:57,560 --> 00:07:01,640
Speaker 1: is really quite incredible. So this is a new messaging

153
00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,039
Speaker 1: app from Jack Dorsey. You might remember that name. He's

154
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:07,559
Speaker 1: the co founder of Twitter. He also founded Square cash

155
00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,600
Speaker 1: app and also blue Sky as well. He was an

156
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,640
Speaker 1: early founder of that as well. He says he coded

157
00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,040
Speaker 1: this app over a single weekend, using AI to help.

158
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:20,120
Speaker 1: Now it's officially live in the iOS App Store, so

159
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:23,720
Speaker 1: you can download this in iOS for the iPhone. And

160
00:07:23,760 --> 00:07:26,800
Speaker 1: here's what makes this app so unique. It does not

161
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:30,800
Speaker 1: need Wi Fi or cellular data to work. It lets

162
00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:34,480
Speaker 1: you message over Bluetooth Mesh networking. So you open up

163
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,480
Speaker 1: the app and if someone nearby also has the app,

164
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 1: you can chat with them instantly, no sign in, no account,

165
00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:44,040
Speaker 1: no phone numbers. It's pretty amazing.

166
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 5: Now.

167
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 1: The interface is very bare bones. You just open it

168
00:07:48,560 --> 00:07:51,760
Speaker 1: up and whatever you know, whoever's around, is instantly in

169
00:07:51,800 --> 00:07:54,320
Speaker 1: that group chat. So you can change your username if

170
00:07:54,360 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: you want, just by tapping it. Messages go away by default.

171
00:07:57,600 --> 00:08:00,920
Speaker 1: They're sort of ephemeral. They are encrypted. But think about

172
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,480
Speaker 1: it this way. You're turning wherever you are into a

173
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:07,920
Speaker 1: pop up chat room. Think about the power of that.

174
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:12,320
Speaker 1: You are at a club boom, you're chatting with everyone else.

175
00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:15,440
Speaker 1: You're at a music festival concert boom, you're chatting with

176
00:08:15,480 --> 00:08:18,520
Speaker 1: everyone else. Stadium, you're chatting with the people in there. Hike,

177
00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:20,679
Speaker 1: you can chat with the people around you even without

178
00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:23,360
Speaker 1: a signal. On a plane, you can chat with everyone

179
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 1: that's on that plane. I mean, this is really transformative.

180
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,679
Speaker 1: It's kind of it's one of those ideas that you're like, Okay,

181
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 1: that's interesting, but how how can I use that?

182
00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:32,240
Speaker 6: Right?

183
00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 1: This is going to take time for people to figure

184
00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:38,280
Speaker 1: out why it's so powerful. Now Bluetooth powered messaging has

185
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:41,040
Speaker 1: been used in the past. Right, there's an app called

186
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:45,000
Speaker 1: bridge afy which is still available. I downloaded it yesterday.

187
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,640
Speaker 1: It does work. What's interesting about this is that this

188
00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,280
Speaker 1: one is a little bit more anonymous and a little

189
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:52,120
Speaker 1: bit more instant.

190
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:53,000
Speaker 2: Like the Bridge of File.

191
00:08:53,040 --> 00:08:54,880
Speaker 1: You have to log in, sign up all that good

192
00:08:54,920 --> 00:08:58,000
Speaker 1: stuff Bitchat, you download it, you're off and running. And

193
00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: they just released a new feature. They just updated the

194
00:09:01,320 --> 00:09:05,040
Speaker 1: app where now if you're not in Bluetooth range on bitchat,

195
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,480
Speaker 1: you can still chat with your favorites, so you can

196
00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: mark someone as your favorite and your messages will go

197
00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:12,199
Speaker 1: over the internet as well. So now it's kind of

198
00:09:12,200 --> 00:09:14,800
Speaker 1: getting into it, even bigger app where it can do

199
00:09:14,880 --> 00:09:20,440
Speaker 1: stuff locally but also globally. Okay, so limitations of course,

200
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:24,560
Speaker 1: you know, Bluetooth only travels so far. My estimations are

201
00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 1: maybe one hundred to one thousand feet depending on the

202
00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:31,200
Speaker 1: mesh network ability of this app. So we'll see what

203
00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:34,199
Speaker 1: happens there. And if nobody else is using the app,

204
00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,040
Speaker 1: it's kind of worthless because nobody's there to chat with.

205
00:09:37,080 --> 00:09:38,720
Speaker 1: Now I've opened up this app in a bunch of

206
00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:41,880
Speaker 1: different places so far, I've yet to find one bitchatter

207
00:09:41,960 --> 00:09:44,680
Speaker 1: in the wild, but I think that'll change now. I

208
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 1: posted this to my Facebook page, and of course the

209
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:50,200
Speaker 1: comments came in fast and furious. One person said, this

210
00:09:50,320 --> 00:09:53,320
Speaker 1: is just picto chat from the Nintendo DS. I guess

211
00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 1: that worked over land. Someone said why message people nearby

212
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:58,440
Speaker 1: when I can just talk to them again? You got

213
00:09:58,440 --> 00:10:01,320
Speaker 1: to think of the powerful nature of this. This person said,

214
00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:03,839
Speaker 1: it's completely useless off the grid. Will they just change

215
00:10:03,840 --> 00:10:07,040
Speaker 1: that with their latest update. Another person said, rich, you're drunk,

216
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,679
Speaker 1: go home. And that may be true at times, but

217
00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:13,360
Speaker 1: not right now. I'm talking about something that I think

218
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:17,360
Speaker 1: is really really interesting. Of course, if you're on Android,

219
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:20,280
Speaker 1: do not download Bitchat from the play Store. There are

220
00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,600
Speaker 1: no official versions just yet, there are fake versions. If

221
00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:26,040
Speaker 1: you want to get the official version, you have to

222
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:28,640
Speaker 1: download an APK. If you're not sure what that is,

223
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,200
Speaker 1: don't do it because it requires a little technical know how.

224
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:34,760
Speaker 2: You can easily be tricked. So if you know what you're.

225
00:10:34,559 --> 00:10:37,560
Speaker 1: Doing, you can go to the Bitchat website and download

226
00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:40,640
Speaker 1: the APK from GitHub. If that all sounds foreign to you,

227
00:10:40,880 --> 00:10:43,160
Speaker 1: don't do it. Just wait for an official release there.

228
00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 1: I think this is fascinating, a new way to message

229
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:49,640
Speaker 1: people anywhere you are, pop up chat rooms. I say,

230
00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: download it, try it out. Obviously, security, privacy and abuse

231
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:54,800
Speaker 1: implications gore.

232
00:10:55,240 --> 00:10:57,119
Speaker 2: But this is really really interesting.

233
00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 1: Heyda Da rich one oh one eight eight eight seven

234
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,880
Speaker 1: four two four one zero one your calls after this.

235
00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:08,400
Speaker 1: Welcome back to rich on tech rich DeMuro here hanging

236
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:12,679
Speaker 1: out with you, talking technology at Triple eight rich one

237
00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:15,240
Speaker 1: on one eight eight eight seven four to two four

238
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 1: one zero one. Mom's in town. Yes, she did the

239
00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:22,440
Speaker 1: playlist back by popular demand. Last time my mom programmed

240
00:11:22,440 --> 00:11:25,199
Speaker 1: the playlist for this show. I got a lot of

241
00:11:25,240 --> 00:11:28,760
Speaker 1: emails saying rich you should be fired, which really hurt me.

242
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: But I'm fine.

243
00:11:30,920 --> 00:11:31,280
Speaker 2: I get it.

244
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:33,959
Speaker 1: You like her music, but uh yeah she picked the

245
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 1: music this week. She put a lot of effort into it.

246
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 1: So enjoy.

247
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:37,640
Speaker 5: Uh.

248
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,000
Speaker 1: By the way, rich on tech dot tv is the website.

249
00:11:41,040 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 1: If you want links to anything I mentioned. I know

250
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: I talked about the bitchat app. If you want the

251
00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:47,720
Speaker 1: link to download that, you can go to the website

252
00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:49,839
Speaker 1: and get that. Make sure you do like the official

253
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:54,040
Speaker 1: links because anytime there is a new hot app, there

254
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:57,360
Speaker 1: are always what I call Klingons. You know they advertise

255
00:11:57,400 --> 00:11:59,640
Speaker 1: in the app store they have similar names. You got

256
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,320
Speaker 1: to be very, very very careful that you don't just

257
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,440
Speaker 1: download something random when you share an app name, because

258
00:12:04,480 --> 00:12:06,480
Speaker 1: you know it could potentially try to steal your data

259
00:12:06,640 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 1: or payment method or whatever. We saw this happen with

260
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:11,600
Speaker 1: chat Gibt in a big way when that came out,

261
00:12:11,920 --> 00:12:14,840
Speaker 1: So just make sure you're getting the official app the website.

262
00:12:14,960 --> 00:12:17,240
Speaker 1: Rich on tech dot TV, I put the official link.

263
00:12:17,920 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 1: This is episode one thirty two, so you can find

264
00:12:20,120 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: it there. All right, let's go to Stanley. Stanley's in

265
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:27,520
Speaker 1: Northwest Ohio.

266
00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:28,360
Speaker 2: You're on with Rich.

267
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:33,000
Speaker 7: Hello, Rich, always enjoy your show, my friend.

268
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:34,760
Speaker 6: Thank you.

269
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,880
Speaker 7: You were beginning to speak about chat, GPT and those

270
00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:42,160
Speaker 7: kinds of things, and I wanted to ask if you've

271
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:46,960
Speaker 7: ever heard of the platform po poe like Edgar allam Poe.

272
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:50,000
Speaker 7: To me, it looks like it's a combination or a

273
00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 7: plethora of other chat sites and it pulls the best

274
00:12:54,480 --> 00:12:58,400
Speaker 7: from other platforms. Do you know anything about poe as

275
00:12:58,440 --> 00:12:59,400
Speaker 7: a search engine?

276
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:00,000
Speaker 5: Yeah?

277
00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,080
Speaker 1: Ai, yeah, this is this is actually started by the

278
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:06,280
Speaker 1: people who started Quora, that question and answer website.

279
00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:07,640
Speaker 2: So it's uh, it's you.

280
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:11,000
Speaker 1: Know it's from a notable company and yeah it's it's

281
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:14,280
Speaker 1: basically all AI in one. So I actually had this

282
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,280
Speaker 1: downloaded to my computer at some point when AI first started,

283
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:21,439
Speaker 1: and it basically lets you choose from various like pretty

284
00:13:21,480 --> 00:13:22,840
Speaker 1: much any AI that you want.

285
00:13:22,960 --> 00:13:24,959
Speaker 2: You can you know, ping it and ask it a question.

286
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:27,040
Speaker 1: You can ask the same questions to different AIS see

287
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,160
Speaker 1: how they respond, so it kind of is an all

288
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:33,840
Speaker 1: in one product. The advantage, I guess is if you're

289
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:38,760
Speaker 1: really into comparing what these things can do the powerful nature,

290
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 1: or you like one one AI for one thing, another

291
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,520
Speaker 1: AI for another. I believe there's also some paid upgrades,

292
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:48,800
Speaker 1: so you can't necessarily use all the features without paying

293
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,600
Speaker 1: for some of this, which is fine. Most of these

294
00:13:51,640 --> 00:13:53,680
Speaker 1: ais you can use them on a free level, and

295
00:13:53,679 --> 00:13:55,680
Speaker 1: then you might have to pay for you know, extended

296
00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:58,440
Speaker 1: use or you know, extra questions or things like that.

297
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:02,360
Speaker 1: The advance, I guess is if you like to compare

298
00:14:02,400 --> 00:14:05,319
Speaker 1: and contrast, or if you like certain aspects of different

299
00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:07,960
Speaker 1: AIS that you want to sort of keep, like, you

300
00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,360
Speaker 1: can pin the ones that you like that are your favorites.

301
00:14:10,800 --> 00:14:14,119
Speaker 1: So if you use one for video generation, another for questions,

302
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:17,719
Speaker 1: another for data, another for answers. You know, that's kind

303
00:14:17,760 --> 00:14:20,200
Speaker 1: of like probably the best use case scenario of this,

304
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 1: of this all in one AI platform. Uh F, yeah,

305
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:26,240
Speaker 1: have you been playing with it?

306
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,040
Speaker 7: My last part of the part of the interest on

307
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,160
Speaker 7: my part is my last name is Poe, and so

308
00:14:32,680 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 7: I might pass this off is my creation to close friends.

309
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,280
Speaker 1: I don't know, Stanley Poe, tell them you made it

310
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:41,520
Speaker 1: and say, hey, check out my my app and see

311
00:14:41,520 --> 00:14:44,120
Speaker 1: what's what's the deal? But yeah, they have they've got

312
00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,960
Speaker 1: platforms for all of them. They've got the mobile apps,

313
00:14:46,960 --> 00:14:49,200
Speaker 1: they've got a desktop app, they've got a web app.

314
00:14:49,840 --> 00:14:52,000
Speaker 1: I have not used it in a while because I

315
00:14:52,320 --> 00:14:54,720
Speaker 1: kind of when I first started using AI, I was

316
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 1: all about Claude and then I was all about Now

317
00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,640
Speaker 1: now I'm all about CHATCHYBT. But I also so really

318
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,200
Speaker 1: like Gemini, So I'm looking at all these different bots.

319
00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, if you're into AI, I just kind

320
00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,960
Speaker 1: of went to the website. There are Yeah, this is

321
00:15:09,000 --> 00:15:11,400
Speaker 1: a way that you could just explore all of the

322
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: benefits of AI. By the way, the website is po

323
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,720
Speaker 1: dot com. Poe dot com. You will need to log in,

324
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:21,320
Speaker 1: But I mean you're talking. I mean, I'm just Stanley,

325
00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:23,880
Speaker 1: I'm looking through these bots. This is unbelievable. I haven't

326
00:15:23,880 --> 00:15:26,480
Speaker 1: looked at this in a while. You've got the official bots,

327
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:31,880
Speaker 1: so you've got theirs. You've got an app creator, GPT four, Gemini, Grock,

328
00:15:32,160 --> 00:15:36,520
Speaker 1: I mean, of all these, this is amazing, Claude. Then

329
00:15:36,560 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 1: you've got apps, so they do all kinds of different apps,

330
00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 1: like you can play chess against AI. Then you've got

331
00:15:41,440 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: search bots, so that just searching the web, image generation bots.

332
00:15:45,880 --> 00:15:51,280
Speaker 1: Then you've got video generation bots, audio generation botsh learning bots,

333
00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,520
Speaker 1: so if you want to learn something like math, or

334
00:15:54,560 --> 00:15:58,760
Speaker 1: let's see what else. Behavior university role play bots, which

335
00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 1: I guess you know they play different role in your life,

336
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:06,240
Speaker 1: advice bots, mind bots, translation bots, professional bots, funny bots,

337
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:09,360
Speaker 1: game bots, utility bots, popular bots. So you know what

338
00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:12,080
Speaker 1: this is almost like this reminds me of almost the

339
00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:15,400
Speaker 1: early days of like Yahoo, when this is sort of

340
00:16:15,600 --> 00:16:17,600
Speaker 1: the best way I can describe it is kind of

341
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:21,240
Speaker 1: a directory of AI that you can use all in

342
00:16:21,280 --> 00:16:25,760
Speaker 1: one place. So I'd say if you are into discovering

343
00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:29,120
Speaker 1: different ais and the different things that they can do,

344
00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:33,120
Speaker 1: this is probably a really interesting place to bookmark and

345
00:16:33,160 --> 00:16:36,360
Speaker 1: to just check out. So yeah, and they've got an

346
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:40,280
Speaker 1: iOS app, Android, they've got a MacApp, and there are

347
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 1: some paid I know there's some paid upgrades that. Oh yeah,

348
00:16:44,400 --> 00:16:48,520
Speaker 1: so free plan, you've got three thousand points a day,

349
00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:51,160
Speaker 1: I guess it looks like. And then you could subscribe

350
00:16:51,240 --> 00:16:54,920
Speaker 1: to more to get more and exclusive bots. So PO

351
00:16:55,080 --> 00:16:59,080
Speaker 1: dot Com, great question, Stanley. There in Ohio, there is

352
00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,760
Speaker 1: so much AI out there. There's just so much you

353
00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,600
Speaker 1: can do with it. And let's see, I'm just gonna

354
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:09,600
Speaker 1: ask a simple question like what are the best states

355
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: for beaches? And this is their own both that they've

356
00:17:13,240 --> 00:17:16,200
Speaker 1: built and so they have their own answers as well,

357
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,480
Speaker 1: and it comes up with Florida, California, Hawaii, South Carolina,

358
00:17:19,560 --> 00:17:22,159
Speaker 1: North Carolina, and so that's like theirs. But then you

359
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:27,200
Speaker 1: can now compare their answer to various other AI search engines.

360
00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,920
Speaker 1: So it's a it's kind of a fun thing. Thanks

361
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,959
Speaker 1: for the reminder, Stanley of PO dot Com. We'll all

362
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,119
Speaker 1: check it out now. All right, coming up, we're going

363
00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:37,959
Speaker 1: to talk to Scott Budman. He is the tech reporter

364
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,760
Speaker 1: up in the Bay Area about all things happening there.

365
00:17:41,960 --> 00:17:47,120
Speaker 1: This is rich On Tech. Welcome back to rich On Tech.

366
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,120
Speaker 1: Rich Demiro here hanging out with you, talking technology at

367
00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:53,200
Speaker 1: triple eight rich one oh one eight eight eight seven

368
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:57,560
Speaker 1: four to two four one zero one. Samsung says that

369
00:17:57,600 --> 00:18:02,120
Speaker 1: there are their foldables are a complex fleet hit. Yes,

370
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:06,119
Speaker 1: highest US pre orders ever for a FULLD device, the

371
00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:08,560
Speaker 1: z Fold seven Z Flip seven sales are up over

372
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,480
Speaker 1: twenty five percent compared to last year's model. Carrier partner

373
00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:16,199
Speaker 1: pre orders for both devices surgeon nearly sixty percent, and

374
00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,359
Speaker 1: the z Fold seven that's the one that folds like

375
00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:21,640
Speaker 1: a book, is outpacing last year's model by almost fifty

376
00:18:21,680 --> 00:18:25,240
Speaker 1: percent since its launch just about a week ago. People

377
00:18:25,280 --> 00:18:29,040
Speaker 1: love it because it's slim, it's lighter, it's got better cameras,

378
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:32,440
Speaker 1: and so I think the foldables have finally gotten to

379
00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 1: a point where I am able to recommend them. It's

380
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:38,720
Speaker 1: not for me personally. I have tried. I've tried the fold.

381
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:41,280
Speaker 1: I know everyone I know loves it. It's not for

382
00:18:41,359 --> 00:18:45,440
Speaker 1: me that that form factor. But you know, I really

383
00:18:45,480 --> 00:18:47,760
Speaker 1: do think it is incredible if you want that, if

384
00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,080
Speaker 1: you think it's interesting. This is the year that the

385
00:18:50,080 --> 00:18:53,760
Speaker 1: Samsung devices are finally good enough where I can recommend him.

386
00:18:54,040 --> 00:18:56,400
Speaker 2: All right, let's bring on Scott Budman.

387
00:18:56,480 --> 00:19:00,360
Speaker 1: He is the tech reporter up for NBC Bay Area

388
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 1: in the Bay Area.

389
00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:02,840
Speaker 2: Scott, Welcome to the show.

390
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,360
Speaker 6: Thanks you Rich, thanks for having me on.

391
00:19:05,520 --> 00:19:07,840
Speaker 2: How long have you been reporting on technology up there?

392
00:19:08,760 --> 00:19:10,920
Speaker 6: I have been up here now for more than twenty

393
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,600
Speaker 6: five years. I'm a Big Area native.

394
00:19:12,720 --> 00:19:14,520
Speaker 8: Spent some time down there in LA and when I

395
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:17,240
Speaker 8: got back up here, the tech boom was taking off

396
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 8: and it has just not stopped since.

397
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:20,320
Speaker 6: It's been a lot of fun.

398
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:23,880
Speaker 1: So I'm going to geek out for a second fanboy here.

399
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,159
Speaker 1: So I remember I was in Shreveport, Louisiana, and you

400
00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:29,760
Speaker 1: had like a show, right, it was like a weekend

401
00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,720
Speaker 1: show or something that was I'm trying to remember the name,

402
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 1: not tech Check.

403
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:34,960
Speaker 2: Was it tech Check?

404
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,840
Speaker 6: It was tech Now actually tech Clars.

405
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 1: Yet and there somehow I was able to watch it

406
00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,040
Speaker 1: when I was in Louisiana. Did they syndicate it to

407
00:19:42,080 --> 00:19:44,760
Speaker 1: different channels or something at some point they did?

408
00:19:44,880 --> 00:19:45,080
Speaker 6: You know?

409
00:19:45,160 --> 00:19:47,679
Speaker 8: It was right around ninety eight, ninety nine, two thousand,

410
00:19:47,760 --> 00:19:51,080
Speaker 8: the tech boom and bust both really really popular times

411
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:53,760
Speaker 8: for focusing on Silicon Valley, and so yeah, a lot

412
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 8: of stations were really interested at the time in what

413
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:00,560
Speaker 8: Silicon Valley was doing. They loved us, and then they

414
00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:03,040
Speaker 8: lost money, so they hated us, and now they're kind

415
00:20:03,040 --> 00:20:04,840
Speaker 8: of back to loving us again. So yeah, once again,

416
00:20:04,880 --> 00:20:07,640
Speaker 8: I'm hearing from places all over the place saying, wow,

417
00:20:07,680 --> 00:20:09,800
Speaker 8: there's a lot of money to be made, or should

418
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:10,560
Speaker 8: I buy bitcoin?

419
00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:12,520
Speaker 6: And it's coming literally from all over the country.

420
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,480
Speaker 1: That's what's so wild because I always joke because I

421
00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: work at a major TV station and you know, I'm

422
00:20:17,520 --> 00:20:20,159
Speaker 1: on every day, but when they really care about me

423
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:23,360
Speaker 1: is when the iPhone comes out, you know, all these

424
00:20:23,400 --> 00:20:25,239
Speaker 1: like major tech events. But the rest of the year,

425
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:26,960
Speaker 1: I'm like, I'm still here doing my thing, you know,

426
00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: And I think tech is interesting and important every day

427
00:20:30,520 --> 00:20:33,120
Speaker 1: of the year, but it's you know, the mainstream kind

428
00:20:33,160 --> 00:20:35,639
Speaker 1: of folks. You know, they tune in at certain times,

429
00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:38,240
Speaker 1: right for these big tent pole events, which like the

430
00:20:38,320 --> 00:20:40,720
Speaker 1: launch of an open AI, a chat GBT kind of thing,

431
00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 1: the launch of a new iPhone. But there's so much

432
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 1: tech going on, and AI is just I mean, it's

433
00:20:46,640 --> 00:20:49,640
Speaker 1: really just taken over everything, right.

434
00:20:49,720 --> 00:20:52,520
Speaker 8: It is the currency in Silicon Valley. It's the gossip

435
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:55,720
Speaker 8: in Silicon Valley. You hear about Mark Zuckerberg and Meta

436
00:20:55,800 --> 00:21:00,200
Speaker 8: offering hundreds of millions of dollars to steal individual people away.

437
00:21:00,400 --> 00:21:03,800
Speaker 8: I mean, I watering NBA contract like money to get

438
00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,240
Speaker 8: people to work in these companies to do AI. And

439
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:10,160
Speaker 8: so you're right, it's always nice, for instance, to see

440
00:21:10,160 --> 00:21:12,560
Speaker 8: you at an Apple event rich, but when we're not

441
00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:16,720
Speaker 8: coming out with smartphones, the AI and the stock market

442
00:21:16,760 --> 00:21:20,359
Speaker 8: of it all still determines our housing prices, It determines

443
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,360
Speaker 8: who buys what cars, who.

444
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:23,200
Speaker 6: Goes to what schools.

445
00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,320
Speaker 8: Tech is just kind of the dominant thing up here

446
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:28,200
Speaker 8: in Silicon Valley five days a week, seven days a week.

447
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:31,760
Speaker 2: It's kind of like in Los Angeles. It's all Hollywood obviously,

448
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:32,320
Speaker 2: and you.

449
00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:34,239
Speaker 1: Know there's people, but there's people that you know have

450
00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,080
Speaker 1: made a nice living on not just Hollywood but also

451
00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,840
Speaker 1: technology here because in the early days a lot of

452
00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:44,080
Speaker 1: the creator economy was sort of headquartered in Los Angeles.

453
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:45,800
Speaker 1: But now we know, I mean, this is the beauty

454
00:21:45,840 --> 00:21:48,439
Speaker 1: of technology. You can be anywhere. And that is I

455
00:21:48,440 --> 00:21:50,879
Speaker 1: think what you know, especially through COVID, you know, with

456
00:21:50,960 --> 00:21:53,840
Speaker 1: all the hybrid stuff, it kind of spread out where

457
00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: stuff happens nowadays.

458
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:59,119
Speaker 6: Yeah, COVID's the perfect example. All of the sudden, you

459
00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:02,639
Speaker 6: had all this content that was streaming becoming the default

460
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 6: way that we watch movies and TV shows. It wasn't

461
00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:08,400
Speaker 6: the movie theater or anything like that. So Netflix, which

462
00:22:08,440 --> 00:22:13,040
Speaker 6: is headquartered here, had a huge, huge presence in southern

463
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,840
Speaker 6: California because of the Hollywood of it all. Apple, which

464
00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:18,640
Speaker 6: is headquartered here, as a huge presence down there. Same

465
00:22:18,720 --> 00:22:21,680
Speaker 6: with a whole lot of tech companies. Snapchat is headquartered there.

466
00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:25,040
Speaker 6: It's become what do they call it, Silicon Beach or something.

467
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,120
Speaker 6: It's become very very important.

468
00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:29,639
Speaker 8: And I love the idea that LA is getting a

469
00:22:29,680 --> 00:22:30,880
Speaker 8: lot of the tech love as well.

470
00:22:31,240 --> 00:22:33,119
Speaker 1: So what are some of the things you've been covering.

471
00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,960
Speaker 1: I mean, obviously AI is hot any any I mean,

472
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,159
Speaker 1: is it still open AI? Chatchybt. I mean there's a

473
00:22:39,320 --> 00:22:41,920
Speaker 1: sort of all that stuff is happening. Anything else that's

474
00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:43,239
Speaker 1: really interesting that's going on.

475
00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:45,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, I really.

476
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:48,280
Speaker 8: Am interested in the environmental impact of what happens.

477
00:22:48,359 --> 00:22:52,240
Speaker 6: So, you know, crypto AI bad for the environment. They

478
00:22:52,320 --> 00:22:53,399
Speaker 6: use a lot of energy.

479
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:56,719
Speaker 8: But we're also at the forefront of things like electric cars,

480
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,800
Speaker 8: even electric planes. We've got these giant drones that are

481
00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:03,480
Speaker 8: working on carrying people. We've got a couple of companies

482
00:23:03,520 --> 00:23:06,879
Speaker 8: here that do that, and so you're seeing the electricity

483
00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,120
Speaker 8: start to take over from gas, and so you can

484
00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:14,040
Speaker 8: now order an uber or a lyft that is electric.

485
00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:15,760
Speaker 6: You can obviously order a weimo.

486
00:23:15,880 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 8: It's a big thing to do up here that not

487
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 8: only is electric, but there's no driver.

488
00:23:20,840 --> 00:23:21,840
Speaker 6: And so you've got a.

489
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,160
Speaker 8: Lot of this technology that's going in a sci fi

490
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:27,640
Speaker 8: direction but also a cleaner direction at the same time.

491
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:28,880
Speaker 6: And I really appreciate that.

492
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:31,520
Speaker 1: Yeah, that is I mean, to me, the wey mo

493
00:23:31,880 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 1: is just it's like we are living in the future,

494
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,800
Speaker 1: but it's like it's like the future. It's not necessarily

495
00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 1: the future we imagined, but it's here right now. Like

496
00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 1: the fact that you can hail a car that has

497
00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:44,280
Speaker 1: no driver is just wild, and when you're in it,

498
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:47,800
Speaker 1: that's also equally wild. What's your thoughts on that? I mean,

499
00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,640
Speaker 1: those things are everywhere in la They're probably everywhere where

500
00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:51,320
Speaker 1: you are as well.

501
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:54,080
Speaker 6: Yes, really are. They've been here for a while.

502
00:23:54,119 --> 00:23:56,840
Speaker 8: And the thing that's interesting to me is that maybe

503
00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:59,480
Speaker 8: people our age are still a little wow, this is

504
00:23:59,560 --> 00:24:02,359
Speaker 8: kind of interesting. But if you're a teenager or someone

505
00:24:02,359 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 8: in their early twenties, this is very normal to you

506
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,720
Speaker 8: to hop into, in Wamo's case, a Jaguar that has

507
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:12,200
Speaker 8: nobody in the front seat. So it's maybe you by

508
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 8: yourself or a couple of friends, and you're being driven

509
00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:18,880
Speaker 8: somewhere in a taxi, just like your parents and grandparents did,

510
00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:23,680
Speaker 8: but there's nobody driving. And this has become very normal

511
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,600
Speaker 8: in a lot of parts of California, in places like Texas,

512
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:29,240
Speaker 8: et cetera. And that, to me is really interesting. So

513
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:33,800
Speaker 8: the idea of no gas, no driver is becoming normal,

514
00:24:33,880 --> 00:24:36,640
Speaker 8: and you wonder how automakers are going to deal with

515
00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:39,560
Speaker 8: this if a whole generation is growing up thinking I

516
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:41,960
Speaker 8: don't really need to get behind the wheel if I

517
00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,280
Speaker 8: want to go to that party or that class or

518
00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:47,920
Speaker 8: that job. And you see them all over the Bay

519
00:24:47,960 --> 00:24:51,680
Speaker 8: Area in Silicon Valley with people and it's just totally

520
00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:54,520
Speaker 8: normal now. And I think that's something that in the

521
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:56,879
Speaker 8: next couple of decades, it's going to be interesting to

522
00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,440
Speaker 8: watch how the rest of society adapts to the fact

523
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,120
Speaker 8: that young people well find it normal not to.

524
00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:04,720
Speaker 1: Have a driver, yeah, or a driver's license. My wife

525
00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:07,359
Speaker 1: works at a school and she would tell me this

526
00:25:07,440 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 1: is years ago when uber was like the main thing

527
00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:11,639
Speaker 1: and She's like, oh, no, kids don't even care on

528
00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,800
Speaker 1: their birthday about getting their driver's license. I mean you

529
00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,040
Speaker 1: and I remember your birthday is like the day you

530
00:25:16,119 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 1: go you get your license, like that is the thing.

531
00:25:18,840 --> 00:25:20,760
Speaker 1: And she said, now kids don't even care anymore. They

532
00:25:20,800 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 1: just dy Uber everywhere. And it's just such a paradigm shift.

533
00:25:23,840 --> 00:25:26,400
Speaker 1: And now you're saying, you know, and Uber was like, okay,

534
00:25:26,440 --> 00:25:28,960
Speaker 1: there's still that idea of like the you know, creepy driver,

535
00:25:29,240 --> 00:25:31,879
Speaker 1: Like it's still a human, right, so anything can happen.

536
00:25:32,160 --> 00:25:34,560
Speaker 1: But now that you've got Weimo, which seems much more

537
00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:38,320
Speaker 1: controlled and secure because there's no driver. You know, obviously

538
00:25:38,359 --> 00:25:40,760
Speaker 1: that's debatable what people think about that, but you know,

539
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,920
Speaker 1: it's much more controllable because it's software, it's not a human.

540
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: And now it's like, okay, hold on, I'm probably fine

541
00:25:46,840 --> 00:25:49,440
Speaker 1: with my kid taking a Weimo versus an Uber, let's say,

542
00:25:50,840 --> 00:25:51,439
Speaker 1: very much so.

543
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:53,320
Speaker 6: And yet it's an economic lesson too.

544
00:25:53,359 --> 00:25:55,280
Speaker 8: I mean people our age and we have teenagers and

545
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:57,000
Speaker 8: they go to parties and they're thinking, O, I'll do

546
00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:58,960
Speaker 8: the responsible thing and take a lift or a Weimo

547
00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,959
Speaker 8: or whatever, and then you get that call at midnight

548
00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:04,679
Speaker 8: when serge pricing kicks in and they're like, I had

549
00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,600
Speaker 8: no idea it would cost one hundred and twenty dollars

550
00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,280
Speaker 8: to take this ride from here to there. And it's like,

551
00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:13,000
Speaker 8: oh yeah, Surge pricing is another part of this economy

552
00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,919
Speaker 8: and it really has caught on, and it's a lesson

553
00:26:15,960 --> 00:26:18,440
Speaker 8: to think not only should I take this, like you said,

554
00:26:18,760 --> 00:26:21,480
Speaker 8: but when should I take this to get the best price?

555
00:26:21,600 --> 00:26:23,560
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, we've thought about that so many times.

556
00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,679
Speaker 1: It's easy to get to the place with the uber

557
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:27,920
Speaker 1: and it's like, oh, wait, hold on, after this concert,

558
00:26:27,960 --> 00:26:29,600
Speaker 1: how much is it going to cost me to get home?

559
00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:31,640
Speaker 1: Because yeah, they're going to and that you know, that's

560
00:26:31,720 --> 00:26:35,160
Speaker 1: a whole other debate and conversation around, you know, equity

561
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: and all this stuff because you know, taxis were the

562
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:40,840
Speaker 1: same price for everyone all the time, and now it's like,

563
00:26:41,080 --> 00:26:43,320
Speaker 1: you know, every single person that's served up on the app.

564
00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:44,679
Speaker 1: You know, my wife and I will open up our

565
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:46,240
Speaker 1: apps and we're both getting different prices.

566
00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,800
Speaker 2: What do you think has changed in the twenty plus

567
00:26:49,920 --> 00:26:51,240
Speaker 2: years you've been covering this stuff?

568
00:26:52,800 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 8: I mean, really, the money of it all, and that's

569
00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:58,760
Speaker 8: what drives this and the idea that venture capital is

570
00:26:58,800 --> 00:27:02,600
Speaker 8: to have taken over not only funding companies, but now

571
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,280
Speaker 8: having a big role in the political world. For decades,

572
00:27:06,359 --> 00:27:10,360
Speaker 8: Silicon Valley wanted to be alone and away from government

573
00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,760
Speaker 8: and just sort of like a hands off thing. And

574
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:15,800
Speaker 8: the new generation of vcs want to be in government,

575
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:18,359
Speaker 8: and the new generation of CEOs want to have a

576
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:21,320
Speaker 8: role in the White House. And you've seen that. And

577
00:27:21,400 --> 00:27:25,480
Speaker 8: now we have these crypto councils and BC councils and

578
00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:29,280
Speaker 8: just everything that comes from Silicon Valley. And I know

579
00:27:29,320 --> 00:27:31,520
Speaker 8: a lot of these guys, and here they are making

580
00:27:31,680 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 8: policy in Washington, and that is brand new. And that's

581
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:40,160
Speaker 8: a huge difference because instead of saying, leave us alone

582
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,280
Speaker 8: here on the West Coast, we want to do our thing,

583
00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:44,639
Speaker 8: it's now we want to do our thing and have

584
00:27:44,760 --> 00:27:46,600
Speaker 8: the rest of the country and maybe even the world

585
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,720
Speaker 8: do it too. And that's a big, big change that

586
00:27:49,840 --> 00:27:52,920
Speaker 8: goes beyond what's the new phone or the new technology.

587
00:27:53,240 --> 00:27:55,399
Speaker 1: But we know the reason for that, because tech, i

588
00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:59,200
Speaker 1: mean big tech is largely gone on regulated and they

589
00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,159
Speaker 1: want to be in place so that they sort of

590
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:04,240
Speaker 1: write if there are regulations coming down the line, which

591
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:06,439
Speaker 1: it seems like there needs to be as we go

592
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,800
Speaker 1: into a more tech center centric world. They want to

593
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:12,200
Speaker 1: be on the front line of that because they want

594
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 1: it done to benefit them the most.

595
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 6: Well, you're absolutely right.

596
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 8: You just talked about income inequality, and that's a huge

597
00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,440
Speaker 8: thing here in Silicon Valley as far as who can

598
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,439
Speaker 8: afford a two and a half three million dollar houses

599
00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:26,399
Speaker 8: and how many homeless people we have at the exact

600
00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:30,960
Speaker 8: same time, And that goes to deregulation. Tech companies being

601
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:32,680
Speaker 8: able to do what they want and make a ton

602
00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,560
Speaker 8: of money and do their credit, create a whole lot

603
00:28:35,560 --> 00:28:37,439
Speaker 8: of jobs and a whole lot of wealth, but at

604
00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,600
Speaker 8: the same time, there are a lot of people left behind.

605
00:28:40,040 --> 00:28:42,640
Speaker 8: And government wants to step in on some level and

606
00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,240
Speaker 8: say we want to change that, and the tech companies

607
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:47,840
Speaker 8: are a little hesitant to do that, and so they say,

608
00:28:47,840 --> 00:28:50,000
Speaker 8: if we have a role in government, we can still

609
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:54,160
Speaker 8: create our jobs and our wealth. But there is a

610
00:28:54,320 --> 00:28:56,840
Speaker 8: huge gap and that's something we deal with here in

611
00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:57,880
Speaker 8: the valley every day.

612
00:28:58,320 --> 00:29:00,720
Speaker 1: All right, Scott, what's the best place for folks to

613
00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:01,840
Speaker 1: follow you online?

614
00:29:03,480 --> 00:29:06,719
Speaker 8: I mean, really, it's I'm still on x still posting

615
00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:10,880
Speaker 8: a lot at my name at Scott Budman, also Instagram

616
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:12,720
Speaker 8: and to an extent TikTok.

617
00:29:13,160 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 6: We are trying as a business. You know this better

618
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,080
Speaker 6: than anyone. I've followed you for a long time.

619
00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:18,920
Speaker 8: We know we have to go where the action is,

620
00:29:18,960 --> 00:29:22,000
Speaker 8: and so to go on social media is just as.

621
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:24,960
Speaker 6: Important right now, if not as important as TV.

622
00:29:25,040 --> 00:29:26,920
Speaker 8: I mean, like you, I'm on TV every day, but

623
00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:29,840
Speaker 8: when people come up to say, hey, what's up, or

624
00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:32,320
Speaker 8: let me comment on a story, it's much more likely

625
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,520
Speaker 8: they've seen it online on social media, and I.

626
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:37,560
Speaker 6: Respect that, and that's something we as a business really

627
00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:38,320
Speaker 6: have to get into.

628
00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:40,080
Speaker 1: Yeah, and I've seen you do more of those reels

629
00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 1: on Instagram, So keep it up, all right. Scott Budman,

Speaker 2: That's what I love.

645
00:30:27,160 --> 00:30:29,880
Speaker 1: It feels like a community, and that is what I

646
00:30:29,960 --> 00:30:33,720
Speaker 1: think is so brilliant about this because it's kind of

647
00:30:33,720 --> 00:30:36,320
Speaker 1: like with my social media. It feels like we are

648
00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:40,280
Speaker 1: all together, right, and I love that back and forth

649
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 1: and just the idea that I can say something here,

650
00:30:43,360 --> 00:30:46,400
Speaker 1: you can call in, you can comment on my socials

651
00:30:46,560 --> 00:30:49,080
Speaker 1: or email me. It's just so fun because it's like

652
00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:52,080
Speaker 1: a It just feels like the community that you want

653
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,920
Speaker 1: in your life, especially around like technology, because I just

654
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:58,440
Speaker 1: love discussing it and thinking about it and all the implications.

655
00:30:59,120 --> 00:31:02,200
Speaker 2: Let's go to and Diamond Bar. Kathy, you are on

656
00:31:02,240 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 2: with Rich.

657
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:04,440
Speaker 9: What's up, Navish?

658
00:31:04,480 --> 00:31:07,360
Speaker 10: Thank you for taking the call. I'm not the most

659
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,520
Speaker 10: techy person in the world, and I'm looking for a

660
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,080
Speaker 10: luggage tracker.

661
00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 9: I'm going to be going to Africa.

662
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,480
Speaker 11: This year and I don't want to lose my luggage.

663
00:31:16,640 --> 00:31:16,960
Speaker 9: Ah.

664
00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:20,080
Speaker 3: Okay, I have ah.

665
00:31:19,360 --> 00:31:20,680
Speaker 2: What kind of Android phone?

666
00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:23,400
Speaker 10: It's a Moduology for.

667
00:31:23,640 --> 00:31:25,240
Speaker 2: Okay, So it's not a Samsung. Okay.

668
00:31:25,360 --> 00:31:29,000
Speaker 1: So when it comes to trackers, there are a couple

669
00:31:29,040 --> 00:31:32,640
Speaker 1: options out there. Number One, if you're on iPhone, obviously

670
00:31:32,680 --> 00:31:35,640
Speaker 1: the air tag is where it's at. But if you're

671
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,760
Speaker 1: on Samsung, they have their own version called the smart Tag,

672
00:31:39,360 --> 00:31:43,520
Speaker 1: and that's a Samsung version of sort of the air tag. Now,

673
00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:46,760
Speaker 1: the nuance about how these things work is the network

674
00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:50,360
Speaker 1: that they ride on. And so anything with iPhone is

675
00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,840
Speaker 1: going to be what's called the find My network. And

676
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:54,960
Speaker 1: that's probably one of the bigger finding networks in the

677
00:31:55,000 --> 00:31:57,760
Speaker 1: world because Apple just said they sold three billion iPhones,

678
00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:01,160
Speaker 1: so there's a lot of people that contribute that finding network.

679
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,959
Speaker 1: Now that doesn't apply here because you're talking Android. So

680
00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,880
Speaker 1: Google came out with something called the find My Network

681
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:11,479
Speaker 1: and so this uses all of the Android devices in

682
00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:15,320
Speaker 1: the world to help find trackers like the one that

683
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 1: you're talking about. So there are two types of tracker,

684
00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,080
Speaker 1: well that's actually three types of trackers for Android, and

685
00:32:21,120 --> 00:32:24,120
Speaker 1: this work gets a little complicated. You've got Samsung trackers,

686
00:32:24,160 --> 00:32:27,840
Speaker 1: which use Samsung phones. Then you've got find my trackers,

687
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:32,440
Speaker 1: which uses the the uh oh sorry, okay, this is

688
00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,720
Speaker 1: the Google find Let's see, they just renamed it. I

689
00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:40,560
Speaker 1: got to figure out what it's called Find my Device Network,

690
00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,720
Speaker 1: that's what they call it, Find my Device Network, so

691
00:32:42,760 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 1: it's find my on iPhone, find my Device and so

692
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:49,280
Speaker 1: they have the Android version of that, which uses all

693
00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:51,760
Speaker 1: the Android phones in the world to help you find

694
00:32:51,760 --> 00:32:55,560
Speaker 1: a tracker. And then there's another way, which is Tile.

695
00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 1: So Tile you've probably heard of, they were one of

696
00:32:58,040 --> 00:33:02,040
Speaker 1: the original trackers. Ever, they have their own finding network

697
00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:05,640
Speaker 1: and that uses everyone that has the Life three sixty

698
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:10,000
Speaker 1: app installed. So the first answer, really, Kathy, is what

699
00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:13,000
Speaker 1: network do you want to use on the Android side,

700
00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:15,600
Speaker 1: And for you having a Motorola, it's either the Tile

701
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:20,920
Speaker 1: network or Googles Find My Network, And so I would

702
00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,360
Speaker 1: probably recommend one of those two. I would take a

703
00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:27,200
Speaker 1: look at the Tile Pro that's number one, and in

704
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:31,280
Speaker 1: my experience, Tile has a lot of users everywhere. The

705
00:33:31,360 --> 00:33:34,400
Speaker 1: big thing is if you're in Africa, you have to

706
00:33:34,440 --> 00:33:37,400
Speaker 1: have people that are using that Tile app on their phone,

707
00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:40,000
Speaker 1: so it's probably going to be a little bit less

708
00:33:40,040 --> 00:33:41,640
Speaker 1: than it would be here in the US. So for

709
00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:46,720
Speaker 1: that reason, I'd probably recommend the Android network, which is

710
00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,800
Speaker 1: to Find my Device network. So in that case, I'm

711
00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:55,840
Speaker 1: going to recommend the Chipolo Pop c Hipolo Pop Chipolo

712
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,800
Speaker 1: Pop and this is from Chipolo. They've been making trackers forever.

713
00:34:00,640 --> 00:34:02,640
Speaker 1: It's twenty nine dollars. You can get a four pack

714
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:05,560
Speaker 1: for eighty seven no monthly fees on this thing. And

715
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 1: the best part is the battery is replaceable, so yes,

716
00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:12,319
Speaker 1: you can replace the battery on this thing when you

717
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:15,560
Speaker 1: need to. Battery lasts about a year. The range on

718
00:34:15,600 --> 00:34:17,840
Speaker 1: it is about three hundred feet because they work with

719
00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:21,319
Speaker 1: Bluetooth for immediate finding and then when your phone is

720
00:34:21,360 --> 00:34:24,799
Speaker 1: not nearby, let's say your luggage was somewhere else, then

721
00:34:24,840 --> 00:34:29,080
Speaker 1: it would use that Android find my network to find

722
00:34:29,080 --> 00:34:31,640
Speaker 1: this thing wherever it is. So that's the one I'm

723
00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,280
Speaker 1: gonna recommend for now. But hopefully you got a little

724
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:38,000
Speaker 1: lesson In all the different tracking devices out there, I've

725
00:34:38,040 --> 00:34:41,520
Speaker 1: tested all these. They all have their pros and cons. Obviously,

726
00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:44,000
Speaker 1: Apples is the most well known with the air tag.

727
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:46,400
Speaker 1: And the thing about the air tag is it's integrated

728
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,719
Speaker 1: with the airlines and that's the thing that is, you know,

729
00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:52,600
Speaker 1: gives them a little bit of an edge over some

730
00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:56,319
Speaker 1: of the other ones. And then this week also they

731
00:34:56,320 --> 00:34:59,040
Speaker 1: had a story about they've got shoes that have an

732
00:34:59,040 --> 00:35:02,640
Speaker 1: air tags in the soul from Sketchers, so you can

733
00:35:02,680 --> 00:35:04,160
Speaker 1: put a little air tag in the bottom of your

734
00:35:04,200 --> 00:35:06,360
Speaker 1: kid's shoes and you can find them that way. But

735
00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:08,840
Speaker 1: I've got these trackers on everything no matter where I go.

736
00:35:08,880 --> 00:35:11,720
Speaker 1: I've got them in my travel bags, I've got them,

737
00:35:12,000 --> 00:35:14,360
Speaker 1: you know, my keys, I've got them in my luggage.

738
00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:17,400
Speaker 1: I mean just everywhere. So pick a network, pick a

739
00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:20,680
Speaker 1: device again. I think that Chippolo Pop is going to

740
00:35:20,719 --> 00:35:23,840
Speaker 1: be good because that's going to be, you know, compatible

741
00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:26,600
Speaker 1: with your Android device, and it's gonna work, and it's

742
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:27,360
Speaker 1: not that expensive.

743
00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,200
Speaker 2: So twenty nine dollars not a bad deal. All right,

744
00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:32,080
Speaker 2: let's see, we got one minute.

745
00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,959
Speaker 1: Let me just read tell you about this story. Thanks

746
00:35:34,960 --> 00:35:38,480
Speaker 1: for the question, Kathy. By the way, Dropbox Passwords is

747
00:35:38,600 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 1: shutting down, so if you're using this Dropbox passwords feature,

748
00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:46,680
Speaker 1: you have to export your data by October twenty eighth. So, yes,

749
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 1: Dropbox had a password manager. I don't think many people

750
00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: used it, That's why they're shutting it down. Most people

751
00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:54,480
Speaker 1: know Dropbox as a place to store files and to

752
00:35:54,560 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 1: share links. Starting August twenty eighth, the Apple will go

753
00:35:58,680 --> 00:36:00,560
Speaker 1: view only, which means you will not be able to

754
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:03,799
Speaker 1: add any new passwords or use autofill at all. On

755
00:36:03,840 --> 00:36:07,840
Speaker 1: September eleventh, the mobile app will stop working completely, and

756
00:36:07,840 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 1: then on October twenty eighth, this is the important date,

757
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:12,880
Speaker 1: all of your stored passwords will be permanently deleted.

758
00:36:13,239 --> 00:36:13,839
Speaker 2: So you've got to.

759
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,440
Speaker 1: Export your passwords out to a new password manager. Dropbox

760
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:20,960
Speaker 1: recommends one password. I really like bitwarding, So again, if

761
00:36:21,080 --> 00:36:24,120
Speaker 1: using Dropbox passwords, come up with a plan to get

762
00:36:24,200 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 1: rid of your passwords into another app.

763
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:27,960
Speaker 2: This is rich on Tech.

00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:07,239
Speaker 1: things that I come across in any given week that

777
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,960
Speaker 1: I think are interesting. I put in the newsletter and

778
00:37:10,040 --> 00:37:12,719
Speaker 1: send it out to all of you. Let's go to

779
00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:16,520
Speaker 1: Andrea in San Diego. Andrea, you're on with Rich.

780
00:37:17,840 --> 00:37:22,839
Speaker 9: Good morning Rich. For us non techie people, how does

781
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:27,239
Speaker 9: one access the Google AI that you talked about that

782
00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:30,560
Speaker 9: you've got so much wonderful information.

783
00:37:30,520 --> 00:37:32,920
Speaker 6: About your son from.

784
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:36,040
Speaker 9: And also you talked about the fact that there's a

785
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:41,640
Speaker 9: password app that's been discontinued. I'm not familiar with that

786
00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:45,120
Speaker 9: one or any of the others, and I'm wondering if

787
00:37:45,160 --> 00:37:50,240
Speaker 9: you could recommend one that's user friendly, easy to use.

788
00:37:50,600 --> 00:37:53,759
Speaker 1: Yes question, okay, and are you on an Android or

789
00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:54,560
Speaker 1: an iPhone?

790
00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:55,520
Speaker 3: iPhone?

791
00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:56,320
Speaker 2: Okay?

792
00:37:56,360 --> 00:38:00,839
Speaker 1: So first question for Gemini, a couple of ways to

793
00:38:00,880 --> 00:38:05,359
Speaker 1: access it. Gemini dot Google dot com is how you

794
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:09,320
Speaker 1: access that on the web. So Gemini dot Google dot

795
00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:12,640
Speaker 1: com is how you access that on the web. And

796
00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:15,880
Speaker 1: then for the apps, you can search on the iPhone

797
00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,560
Speaker 1: for Gemini and let me just see what comes up.

798
00:38:19,640 --> 00:38:22,920
Speaker 1: Because you know, like I said earlier, there's always like Klingons,

799
00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:25,960
Speaker 1: so when you search Gemini, they know people are searching

800
00:38:26,040 --> 00:38:28,840
Speaker 1: for that, so they have other apps that look similar.

801
00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:32,680
Speaker 1: But the good news is the top result is Google Gemini.

802
00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,080
Speaker 1: It says your AI assistant from Google. So you can

803
00:38:37,160 --> 00:38:40,720
Speaker 1: install that on your iPhone. Sign in with your Google account,

804
00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:44,680
Speaker 1: and then obviously you can just ask Gemini any question

805
00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: you want.

806
00:38:45,400 --> 00:38:45,600
Speaker 2: Right.

807
00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,960
Speaker 1: You can say, give me a list of the top

808
00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:51,560
Speaker 1: ten states for retirement, right, and it will go through

809
00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,280
Speaker 1: and find all the information on the web and synthesize

810
00:38:55,280 --> 00:38:55,920
Speaker 1: that and come.

811
00:38:55,840 --> 00:38:57,880
Speaker 2: Up with what I call like a little book report.

812
00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:01,440
Speaker 1: Or you can ask any kind of like theoretical question,

813
00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: open ended, whatever you want. That's one level. But if

814
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:08,520
Speaker 1: you have your data in Google, it gets really interesting

815
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:12,759
Speaker 1: because now you can ask Google for information about the

816
00:39:12,880 --> 00:39:16,239
Speaker 1: data that you have stored in Google. So, for instance,

817
00:39:16,320 --> 00:39:20,920
Speaker 1: if you have Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Drive, Google Docs,

818
00:39:21,000 --> 00:39:25,600
Speaker 1: Google Keep, Google tasks, you can ask specific questions like,

819
00:39:25,640 --> 00:39:31,359
Speaker 1: for instance, on Gmail, you can say, you know, hey,

820
00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:37,240
Speaker 1: search my Gmail for any information about my upcoming trip

821
00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:41,920
Speaker 1: to London, and it will look through your email and

822
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:46,480
Speaker 1: synthesize the data and find that information. Or you can say,

823
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:50,840
Speaker 1: search through my Google Photos and find the best picture

824
00:39:50,920 --> 00:39:53,839
Speaker 1: I took in Tokyo last year, and it will do that.

825
00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:55,440
Speaker 2: I mean, it's that good.

826
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:58,160
Speaker 1: The other day I asked it, you know, find my

827
00:39:58,360 --> 00:40:01,160
Speaker 1: oldest picture of me and my wife or whatever. You know,

828
00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 1: you could just the possibilities are endless, but if you

829
00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:09,600
Speaker 1: go on the Gemini app online on the website, there's

830
00:40:09,640 --> 00:40:13,879
Speaker 1: a little settings icon like a gear icon the lower

831
00:40:13,960 --> 00:40:18,000
Speaker 1: left hand corner. Tap that and then tap apps and

832
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,480
Speaker 1: that will give you the ability to see all the

833
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:23,920
Speaker 1: apps that Gemini works with. And if you look under Google,

834
00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:27,480
Speaker 1: it has Gmail, Google Calendar and it says learn more,

835
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:30,640
Speaker 1: and if you tap that, it will give you ideas

836
00:40:31,160 --> 00:40:34,319
Speaker 1: of things to try. So, for instance, for Gmail, says

837
00:40:34,360 --> 00:40:38,799
Speaker 1: find emails by topic, summarize my onread emails, what was

838
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:42,239
Speaker 1: said in the recent email. For Google Calendar, you can

839
00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:47,000
Speaker 1: say things like ad event from this image, show upcoming events,

840
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:50,120
Speaker 1: create a recurring event. Again, it's all the stuff that

841
00:40:50,160 --> 00:40:54,560
Speaker 1: you used to use typing for and just you know,

842
00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:56,480
Speaker 1: you had to sit there and like write it all out.

843
00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:59,160
Speaker 1: Now you can just ask and it's really good. So

844
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:01,520
Speaker 1: I was at the dent office the other day. My

845
00:41:01,640 --> 00:41:03,759
Speaker 1: kid had an appointment coming up, and I just said

846
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:08,799
Speaker 1: to Gemini, add to my calendar appointment for seven you

847
00:41:08,840 --> 00:41:14,400
Speaker 1: know am next Thursday, labeled kid orthodontists appointment, you know,

848
00:41:14,800 --> 00:41:15,120
Speaker 1: And it.

849
00:41:15,160 --> 00:41:15,560
Speaker 2: Just does it.

850
00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:19,000
Speaker 1: And the beauty of this is compared to the old

851
00:41:19,040 --> 00:41:21,880
Speaker 1: way of doing things with your voice, is that AI

852
00:41:22,120 --> 00:41:25,799
Speaker 1: understands what you're trying to say, right, even when you

853
00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:29,480
Speaker 1: don't say it perfectly. So for so many years on

854
00:41:29,520 --> 00:41:33,520
Speaker 1: our devices with things like Alexa and Google Assistant and Siri,

855
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,359
Speaker 1: you had to say things a perfect way for them

856
00:41:36,400 --> 00:41:39,960
Speaker 1: to respond and understand. The beauty of AI is that

857
00:41:40,000 --> 00:41:42,279
Speaker 1: you can use natural language, so even if you don't

858
00:41:42,320 --> 00:41:45,640
Speaker 1: say it perfectly, it will still understand what you're trying

859
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:49,239
Speaker 1: to say. So, Andrea, those are the ways that you

860
00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: can access the Gemini. It's also available as an app

861
00:41:52,600 --> 00:41:56,120
Speaker 1: on Android, but yeah, get familiar with that because it

862
00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:59,720
Speaker 1: is very handy. Now with respect to your second question,

863
00:41:59,719 --> 00:42:02,400
Speaker 1: the past password manager, The reason why I asked you

864
00:42:02,440 --> 00:42:05,360
Speaker 1: which phone you use is because here's my recommendations for

865
00:42:05,400 --> 00:42:09,160
Speaker 1: password managers. If you're only using an Android phone and

866
00:42:09,239 --> 00:42:12,600
Speaker 1: Chrome on your computer, I would just recommend Google Passwords.

867
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:14,680
Speaker 1: It's simple, it's easy, it's built into the Google that

868
00:42:14,719 --> 00:42:18,480
Speaker 1: you already use. That's number one. If you're only using

869
00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:22,360
Speaker 1: Apple devices, I would recommend using Apple Passwords because it's simple,

870
00:42:22,440 --> 00:42:25,319
Speaker 1: it's easy, it's already built into the devices that you use.

871
00:42:25,400 --> 00:42:29,200
Speaker 1: But again, only if you're using Apple or Android or Chrome.

872
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:29,879
Speaker 2: For those two.

873
00:42:30,560 --> 00:42:33,399
Speaker 1: The reason why I like Bitwarden is because it's what's

874
00:42:33,440 --> 00:42:36,880
Speaker 1: called cross platform and third party, which means it is

875
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,399
Speaker 1: not linked to anything else out there. It is its

876
00:42:40,440 --> 00:42:44,160
Speaker 1: own separate thing and it works across all devices, and

877
00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:46,400
Speaker 1: so for that reason, I really like it.

878
00:42:46,400 --> 00:42:47,040
Speaker 2: It is slick.

879
00:42:47,080 --> 00:42:49,479
Speaker 1: You will not believe that it's free. Some people are paying,

880
00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:51,759
Speaker 1: you know, fifty sixty seventy eighty dollars a year for

881
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:54,640
Speaker 1: a password manager. You really don't have to. Now, there

882
00:42:54,680 --> 00:42:57,000
Speaker 1: might be some advanced features and things like that, but

883
00:42:57,440 --> 00:43:01,560
Speaker 1: it's it's very bitward It is incredible for free, and

884
00:43:01,600 --> 00:43:04,120
Speaker 1: I really recommend that, and I would recommend if you're

885
00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:06,200
Speaker 1: I know you said you weren't tech savvy, but if

886
00:43:06,239 --> 00:43:09,120
Speaker 1: you're in the least tech savvy, it's probably better to

887
00:43:09,160 --> 00:43:11,759
Speaker 1: go with a third party password manager. Just because it's

888
00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:15,600
Speaker 1: insulated from your Google account or your Apple account, it

889
00:43:15,800 --> 00:43:20,239
Speaker 1: sort of lives separately. Great question, Andrea, thanks so much

890
00:43:20,239 --> 00:43:21,520
Speaker 1: for the call today.

891
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,000
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, we got through a lot with that one.

892
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:25,680
Speaker 2: Andrea and san Diego.

893
00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:32,000
Speaker 1: Speaking of password managers, this is a two factor authentication app,

894
00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,320
Speaker 1: which I also believe you should absolutely have in your arsenal.

895
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:41,280
Speaker 1: Two factor authentication app is an app that generates codes

896
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:44,279
Speaker 1: every thirty seconds or so that help you log into

897
00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:48,279
Speaker 1: your accounts. You may get two factor authentication codes by

898
00:43:48,360 --> 00:43:51,560
Speaker 1: text or email. I think an app is the safest

899
00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:54,360
Speaker 1: because it is separate and it's by itself, and I

900
00:43:54,440 --> 00:43:57,840
Speaker 1: don't recommend that you use your password manager to generate

901
00:43:57,880 --> 00:44:01,600
Speaker 1: two factor authentication codes. There is a new two factor

902
00:44:01,600 --> 00:44:05,000
Speaker 1: authentication code app that I just absolutely have fallen in

903
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:09,840
Speaker 1: love with. It is called Proton Authenticator. You might know Proton.

904
00:44:09,880 --> 00:44:14,080
Speaker 1: They're a Swiss company. They are very they are very

905
00:44:14,200 --> 00:44:17,719
Speaker 1: privacy centric. They have Proton Email. I think that was

906
00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:20,239
Speaker 1: their first product. Anyway, they came out with the new

907
00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:22,960
Speaker 1: two factor authentication app that does every single thing that

908
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:23,839
Speaker 1: I want it to do.

909
00:44:24,200 --> 00:44:25,480
Speaker 2: It's number one. It's free.

910
00:44:25,840 --> 00:44:29,120
Speaker 1: It's available on iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and Linux. If

911
00:44:29,120 --> 00:44:32,359
Speaker 1: you've got a Linux out there. It's open source, it's

912
00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:35,200
Speaker 1: ad free. It does not lock you in, which I love.

913
00:44:35,280 --> 00:44:38,720
Speaker 1: You can import or export your two factor authentication codes.

914
00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,840
Speaker 1: Unlike SMS codes. The app is much more secure because

915
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:46,680
Speaker 1: you know your phone ewer could be lost, stolen, changed, simswapped,

916
00:44:47,320 --> 00:44:50,480
Speaker 1: and this is an app, so everything is inside an app.

917
00:44:52,239 --> 00:44:54,880
Speaker 1: And it also supports biometrics so you can have it.

918
00:44:55,200 --> 00:44:57,359
Speaker 1: You know, even if someone gets your phone, they would

919
00:44:57,400 --> 00:45:00,279
Speaker 1: still need to use a pin or your fingerp or

920
00:45:00,320 --> 00:45:03,400
Speaker 1: your face to unlock it. So that's another added security

921
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,160
Speaker 1: thing which I love. And the other thing, I mean,

922
00:45:06,200 --> 00:45:07,920
Speaker 1: they just thought of everything with this app, which is

923
00:45:07,920 --> 00:45:10,879
Speaker 1: why I absolutely am just gushing over it. You can

924
00:45:10,920 --> 00:45:15,000
Speaker 1: sink your codes across devices, or you can keep them local.

925
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:17,279
Speaker 1: So if you're one of these people that's super you know,

926
00:45:17,400 --> 00:45:19,640
Speaker 1: security centric, and you're saying I don't want my codes

927
00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:22,040
Speaker 1: going anywhere else, you can just keep them on your phone,

928
00:45:22,280 --> 00:45:24,920
Speaker 1: or you can sync them across devices. And you have

929
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,759
Speaker 1: two options of sinking. You can back them up to

930
00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:31,320
Speaker 1: your your own cloud like a Google like the Proton

931
00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:36,920
Speaker 1: Cloud or iCloud, or you can use their own cloud

932
00:45:36,960 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 1: to sink them across. So I mean there's lots of

933
00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:41,799
Speaker 1: options here, which I really really love. So anyway, I've

934
00:45:41,840 --> 00:45:44,640
Speaker 1: already installed this. I'm going to make the switch slowly

935
00:45:44,680 --> 00:45:47,839
Speaker 1: but surely. But I really think that Proton Authenticator has

936
00:45:47,840 --> 00:45:49,239
Speaker 1: done a great job. So if you want to link

937
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:51,480
Speaker 1: to that, I'll put it on the website. Rich on

938
00:45:51,840 --> 00:45:55,520
Speaker 1: tech dot TV. All right, I don't think I have

939
00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:57,239
Speaker 1: time for another call, right, I've got what like about

940
00:45:57,239 --> 00:45:57,839
Speaker 1: a minute left?

941
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,920
Speaker 2: Okay, let's see what I want to do. Let's see here.

942
00:46:00,960 --> 00:46:02,880
Speaker 1: I'll tell you about one more thing before we go

943
00:46:02,920 --> 00:46:04,960
Speaker 1: to break here. I'm trying to see you. Do I

944
00:46:04,960 --> 00:46:07,319
Speaker 1: have any calls that I can do quickly here?

945
00:46:07,600 --> 00:46:08,080
Speaker 2: Probably not.

946
00:46:09,200 --> 00:46:14,080
Speaker 1: So Uber has launched a new women Preferences mode. So

947
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,239
Speaker 1: if you're a woman and you want a woman to

948
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,600
Speaker 1: be driving you, which you knows various reasons why you

949
00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:22,840
Speaker 1: may want that, safety, security, whatever, this feature lets you

950
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:26,640
Speaker 1: choose to have matched with a woman. And so this

951
00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:29,640
Speaker 1: is rolling out in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Detroit's

952
00:46:29,640 --> 00:46:32,440
Speaker 1: not everywhere just yet, but if you're a woman on

953
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:35,200
Speaker 1: the app, you can request a female driver on demand

954
00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:38,719
Speaker 1: or when you make an advanced reservation. So there's a

955
00:46:38,800 --> 00:46:42,880
Speaker 1: default preference in the app settings, which they say increases

956
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,040
Speaker 1: the likelihood of being matched with a woman driver. So

957
00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,040
Speaker 1: it's not like guaranteed every time, I guess, but you know,

958
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,879
Speaker 1: it's kind of a nice option to have. Uber says

959
00:46:50,880 --> 00:46:53,480
Speaker 1: this makes the platform safer, more flexible, and more comfortable

960
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:56,240
Speaker 1: for women, and they will roll it out to expand

961
00:46:56,239 --> 00:47:00,239
Speaker 1: across the US based on feedback and usage data. For

962
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:04,000
Speaker 1: what it's worth Lift already has this feature available to everyone,

963
00:47:04,600 --> 00:47:06,719
Speaker 1: and we've actually done this, my wife and I.

964
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:09,160
Speaker 2: She requested a ride. I happen to be in it.

965
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:10,920
Speaker 1: We got a female driver and we asked her all

966
00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:12,439
Speaker 1: about this and she said, oh my god, it's great.

967
00:47:12,680 --> 00:47:14,480
Speaker 2: It's like, I love this. It's so great.

968
00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,200
Speaker 1: It's you know, I can drive other women around and

969
00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:19,160
Speaker 1: it's just people. The women that I'm driving, they all

970
00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,399
Speaker 1: talk about how much they love it. So again, it's

971
00:47:21,440 --> 00:47:24,520
Speaker 1: just another option. Uber is if you want to check

972
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:26,160
Speaker 1: it out in your settings. You can check that out

973
00:47:26,200 --> 00:47:28,319
Speaker 1: if you live in one of those cities. Otherwise, if

974
00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:30,600
Speaker 1: you want to try that feature, Lyft does have it

975
00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:34,239
Speaker 1: all right. Eighty eight rich one On one eighty eight

Speaker 1: right there. Let's go to Sarah in Santa Ana. Sarah,

989
00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:16,439
Speaker 1: you are on with Rich.

990
00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:18,960
Speaker 3: Hi.

991
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:22,520
Speaker 12: My daughters starting college and her laptop is dying, and

992
00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:26,000
Speaker 12: I don't have any money really to buy anything new,

993
00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:31,040
Speaker 12: but she wants a MacBook. What do you think my

994
00:48:31,120 --> 00:48:34,719
Speaker 12: best option is? Do you know anything about financing? Are

995
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:39,440
Speaker 12: there student programs where she could get something for a

996
00:48:39,520 --> 00:48:43,160
Speaker 12: loan or for free? Or if I had to buy something,

997
00:48:43,239 --> 00:48:44,080
Speaker 12: what should I get?

998
00:48:44,480 --> 00:48:50,319
Speaker 1: Well, I don't necessarily promote financing or loans, so I

999
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:55,560
Speaker 1: don't really necessarily like that avenue. We're talking about nine

1000
00:48:55,680 --> 00:48:58,560
Speaker 1: hundred dollars one thousand dollars here. So my advice is

1001
00:48:59,040 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 1: to save up and do whatever you can to save

1002
00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:05,040
Speaker 1: up that money and buy it. Because a computer that's

1003
00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:06,719
Speaker 1: paid for is probably going to feel a lot better

1004
00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:09,239
Speaker 1: for your daughter than something that you're making payments on.

1005
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:11,600
Speaker 1: So that's my number one kind of the way that

1006
00:49:11,680 --> 00:49:14,440
Speaker 1: I do things in my life. I don't like a

1007
00:49:14,440 --> 00:49:16,440
Speaker 1: lot of debt. I don't like a lot of payments

1008
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:20,040
Speaker 1: and things like that, So I don't don't really like that,

1009
00:49:20,160 --> 00:49:22,040
Speaker 1: So I understand where you're coming from.

1010
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:22,640
Speaker 2: I get it.

1011
00:49:23,239 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 1: There have been times in my life where there's just

1012
00:49:25,239 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: the money is not there and you can't buy it,

1013
00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,440
Speaker 1: and so I get that. In the meantime, you know,

1014
00:49:31,520 --> 00:49:34,439
Speaker 1: there are libraries at college she can use. There are

1015
00:49:34,480 --> 00:49:37,800
Speaker 1: inexpensive laptops. I mean there if she just wants something,

1016
00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:42,600
Speaker 1: that is the absolute most inexpensive laptop that you can

1017
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:46,239
Speaker 1: probably cobble together some cash for it is the M

1018
00:49:46,400 --> 00:49:49,960
Speaker 1: one MacBook Air. And you can get this thing for

1019
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:54,240
Speaker 1: you know, brand new. It's selling for like five ninety

1020
00:49:54,320 --> 00:49:58,320
Speaker 1: nine on Walmart dot com and I've seen it even cheaper.

1021
00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:01,319
Speaker 1: So this is a that's a couple of years old.

1022
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:03,920
Speaker 1: But I'll be honest, my wife uses it and it's

1023
00:50:03,960 --> 00:50:05,560
Speaker 1: fine for her. So if it's good enough for her,

1024
00:50:05,560 --> 00:50:07,920
Speaker 1: I think it's good enough for your daughter. But it

1025
00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:11,880
Speaker 1: is aging, and so it's been a bit so, you know,

1026
00:50:11,920 --> 00:50:15,520
Speaker 1: but the avenue I would look at is number one.

1027
00:50:15,600 --> 00:50:17,839
Speaker 1: If you want that computer, the MacBook Air M one.

1028
00:50:18,360 --> 00:50:21,879
Speaker 1: That's a really to me, that's that's a fantastic deal

1029
00:50:22,000 --> 00:50:24,799
Speaker 1: that's still out there. I mean, look at this. This

1030
00:50:24,920 --> 00:50:27,080
Speaker 1: it's five years old, so it's on sale for under

1031
00:50:27,120 --> 00:50:29,759
Speaker 1: six hundred dollars. I guess Walmart's price is probably the

1032
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:35,240
Speaker 1: best right now, So that's number one. The other avenue

1033
00:50:35,280 --> 00:50:38,640
Speaker 1: to explore is if you go to Apple Education store.

1034
00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:42,359
Speaker 1: They've got their back to school discounts. I haven't heard

1035
00:50:42,360 --> 00:50:44,960
Speaker 1: that they've started their back to school offers just yet,

1036
00:50:45,000 --> 00:50:47,759
Speaker 1: so I would probably wait because typically they do a

1037
00:50:47,800 --> 00:50:50,520
Speaker 1: back to school offer any day now and they'll give

1038
00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,880
Speaker 1: you like an extra one hundred dollars gift card or

1039
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:56,239
Speaker 1: something with your purchase. But if you're going to get

1040
00:50:56,239 --> 00:50:59,360
Speaker 1: something new, then the computer I would recommend for your

1041
00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,400
Speaker 1: daughter is the MacBook Air, and I understand why she

1042
00:51:02,440 --> 00:51:04,760
Speaker 1: wants one because it is the computer that I've relied

1043
00:51:04,760 --> 00:51:08,480
Speaker 1: on for years. It is an incredible machine, and it

1044
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,640
Speaker 1: is just it does everything you need and this thing

1045
00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:15,120
Speaker 1: will last you ten years, no joke. MacBook Air thirteen

1046
00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:19,680
Speaker 1: inch is eight ninety nine for the education pricing, So

1047
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,279
Speaker 1: you can get a computer with the latest specs for

1048
00:51:22,320 --> 00:51:23,040
Speaker 1: eight ninety nine.

1049
00:51:23,280 --> 00:51:25,040
Speaker 2: Now, I get it. Sarah.

1050
00:51:25,080 --> 00:51:27,279
Speaker 1: I understand that you know you're going through a tough

1051
00:51:27,280 --> 00:51:29,719
Speaker 1: time right now with the financials, but I feel like

1052
00:51:29,760 --> 00:51:32,960
Speaker 1: it's one of these things where just, you know, try

1053
00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:36,240
Speaker 1: to just cobble together that cash, sell some stuff around

1054
00:51:36,239 --> 00:51:38,760
Speaker 1: the house, whatever you can do to get that money.

1055
00:51:39,719 --> 00:51:41,360
Speaker 1: You can even trade in old things, like if you

1056
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:45,160
Speaker 1: have some old gadgets and things that are even Apple gadgets,

1057
00:51:45,160 --> 00:51:46,719
Speaker 1: you can trade those in at the Apple Store to

1058
00:51:46,719 --> 00:51:49,480
Speaker 1: get a gift card. But my advice is if you

1059
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:53,040
Speaker 1: want something that's super super inexpensive, I think the M

1060
00:51:53,080 --> 00:51:55,319
Speaker 1: one MacBook is the way to go. It's still going

1061
00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:58,000
Speaker 1: to last and still be a good deal even five

1062
00:51:58,080 --> 00:52:00,520
Speaker 1: years later. The problem is with that, you're going to

1063
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:03,800
Speaker 1: spend six hundred dollars and your daughter is in school

1064
00:52:03,800 --> 00:52:06,560
Speaker 1: for a couple of years. You said she's starting college,

1065
00:52:06,640 --> 00:52:09,200
Speaker 1: So is that going to last four more years? I'm

1066
00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:12,000
Speaker 1: not sure. Whereas if you spend a little bit more

1067
00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:14,960
Speaker 1: on the newer MacBook, it's definitely gonna last four years

1068
00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:16,120
Speaker 1: plus plus plus.

1069
00:52:16,560 --> 00:52:18,879
Speaker 2: So I hope that answers your question. I know it's tough.

1070
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:22,440
Speaker 1: It's these things are not cheap, they're really not, and

1071
00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,640
Speaker 1: it's a big purchase for people. But I like the

1072
00:52:25,880 --> 00:52:28,719
Speaker 1: idea that you're thinking about the Mac because it does

1073
00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:32,399
Speaker 1: last a very long time. Thanks for the call Mark

1074
00:52:32,440 --> 00:52:33,120
Speaker 1: and Woodland Hills.

1075
00:52:33,160 --> 00:52:33,520
Speaker 2: What's up?

1076
00:52:34,719 --> 00:52:34,920
Speaker 5: You know?

1077
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,800
Speaker 4: I just want to practice by saying, there's another tracker

1078
00:52:37,840 --> 00:52:41,359
Speaker 4: that our company has found to be extremely efficacious. It's

1079
00:52:41,400 --> 00:52:44,560
Speaker 4: called Track E, a track with an E on the

1080
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,399
Speaker 4: end of it there, and it's independent and you can

1081
00:52:47,480 --> 00:52:49,920
Speaker 4: use it with any kind of phone, and we found

1082
00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:53,960
Speaker 4: that our drivers who know about it, we rely on

1083
00:52:54,000 --> 00:52:56,360
Speaker 4: it because we've got to know where our drivers are going. Anyway,

1084
00:52:57,080 --> 00:53:01,000
Speaker 4: I'm calling basically about family tree sites. My wife and

1085
00:53:01,040 --> 00:53:03,880
Speaker 4: I are interested in passing on our family tree to

1086
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 4: our sons. I'm of European ancestry. She's a sub Saharan ancestry.

1087
00:53:09,080 --> 00:53:13,080
Speaker 4: You know, she's African American and for her in particular,

1088
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:15,799
Speaker 4: we have just it's just so challenging to try and

1089
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:19,240
Speaker 4: delve into it. And I know there are some companies

1090
00:53:19,239 --> 00:53:23,120
Speaker 4: out there that specialize in African Americans, and we're not

1091
00:53:23,160 --> 00:53:25,279
Speaker 4: interested in the DNA yet until they work out the

1092
00:53:25,320 --> 00:53:30,040
Speaker 4: controversies about you know, some of the you know, some

1093
00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:31,959
Speaker 4: of the issues that they have with that. But we're

1094
00:53:32,040 --> 00:53:35,880
Speaker 4: hoping that you could refer to some sort of family

1095
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:39,200
Speaker 4: tree site that could help us out with her ancestry

1096
00:53:39,200 --> 00:53:40,040
Speaker 4: back to Africa.

1097
00:53:40,120 --> 00:53:42,759
Speaker 1: Well, I don't have a good answer off the top

1098
00:53:42,800 --> 00:53:44,799
Speaker 1: of my head, but just doing a quick search while

1099
00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 1: you're talking here, I've summed upon a website called Blackpast

1100
00:53:48,400 --> 00:53:54,000
Speaker 1: dot org and they've got an entire page with links

1101
00:53:54,000 --> 00:53:55,760
Speaker 1: to just about I mean, this is the most thorough.

1102
00:53:56,640 --> 00:53:59,360
Speaker 1: This is so thorough, and it's got links to every

1103
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:03,719
Speaker 1: single thing for African American family history resources. And it's

1104
00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:05,719
Speaker 1: not just their stuff. It's like they've gone out and

1105
00:54:05,760 --> 00:54:08,839
Speaker 1: found links to every single website that deals with this.

1106
00:54:09,320 --> 00:54:14,280
Speaker 1: And so Blackpast dot org Genealogy Resources is the actual

1107
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:17,359
Speaker 1: site page. But I would check that out because I'm

1108
00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,239
Speaker 1: looking at this and it's got pretty much everything you

1109
00:54:19,280 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 1: can imagine when it comes to this topic. So I'll

1110
00:54:22,480 --> 00:54:24,759
Speaker 1: put this up on the website. Mark rich on tech

1111
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:27,520
Speaker 1: dot tv. Thanks for the note on tracky. I believe

1112
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:29,960
Speaker 1: that's spelled with an I. By the way, I'll take

1113
00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:32,040
Speaker 1: a look at that as well. Eighty eight rich one

1114
00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:34,520
Speaker 1: on one eighty eight seven four to two four one

1115
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:35,560
Speaker 1: zero one more.

1116
00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:36,480
Speaker 2: Rich on Tech after this.

1117
00:54:38,239 --> 00:54:40,959
Speaker 1: Welcome back to rich on Tech. Rich Demiro here hanging

1118
00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:44,160
Speaker 1: out with you talking technology. A couple of weeks ago,

1119
00:54:44,160 --> 00:54:46,479
Speaker 1: I posted a picture of me eating a hot dog

1120
00:54:47,719 --> 00:54:48,520
Speaker 1: on social media.

1121
00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:49,360
Speaker 2: There was a reason.

1122
00:54:49,920 --> 00:54:52,280
Speaker 1: It's because I went to a place called Wiener Snitzel

1123
00:54:52,719 --> 00:54:56,000
Speaker 1: where they are now using AI at the drive through.

1124
00:54:56,719 --> 00:55:00,560
Speaker 1: Here to talk about that is Gela Fairv is the

1125
00:55:00,600 --> 00:55:03,680
Speaker 1: CEO of Presto. They are the folks that are putting

1126
00:55:03,719 --> 00:55:06,960
Speaker 1: AI in the drive through order boxes. Let's already has

1127
00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,160
Speaker 1: to say about how this is changing the way we

1128
00:55:09,200 --> 00:55:12,680
Speaker 1: place fast food orders.

1129
00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:17,920
Speaker 13: So Presto is an AI business which is creating an

1130
00:55:17,960 --> 00:55:21,200
Speaker 13: AI solution for the drive through for the QSR industry.

1131
00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:25,960
Speaker 13: So when your car pulls up currently to the speaker

1132
00:55:26,000 --> 00:55:27,920
Speaker 13: box in a drive through restaurant and you speak to

1133
00:55:28,120 --> 00:55:31,840
Speaker 13: a human through the speaker box currently working in the restaurant,

1134
00:55:32,040 --> 00:55:34,840
Speaker 13: we are changing that system such that you would be

1135
00:55:34,880 --> 00:55:37,840
Speaker 13: communicating with an AI system, which would reduce the amount

1136
00:55:37,880 --> 00:55:40,960
Speaker 13: of labor the restaurant leeds and can also begin to

1137
00:55:41,000 --> 00:55:44,440
Speaker 13: automate things such as upsell and other forms of marketing

1138
00:55:44,480 --> 00:55:45,120
Speaker 13: in the drive through.

1139
00:55:46,040 --> 00:55:50,320
Speaker 2: So how good is the AI like? Can it replace

1140
00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:52,920
Speaker 2: the human that's currently taking orders?

1141
00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,480
Speaker 13: And what's the vain Yeah, and in a vat majority

1142
00:55:56,480 --> 00:56:00,160
Speaker 13: of instances the system can do that. So we have

1143
00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:03,480
Speaker 13: something called a non intervention rate, and that's the industry standard.

1144
00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 13: So that's the number of times that the system works

1145
00:56:07,200 --> 00:56:10,279
Speaker 13: or without a human having to step in, and those

1146
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:13,320
Speaker 13: are already in the nineties, so in a vast majority

1147
00:56:13,360 --> 00:56:15,600
Speaker 13: of instances that works. Their drive through is a very

1148
00:56:15,640 --> 00:56:19,759
Speaker 13: complicated environment, and so on some occasions you do need

1149
00:56:19,760 --> 00:56:21,319
Speaker 13: the store to step in.

1150
00:56:21,440 --> 00:56:21,840
Speaker 6: Anyway.

1151
00:56:22,120 --> 00:56:25,680
Speaker 13: In terms of the advantages, I think for the our customer,

1152
00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:29,680
Speaker 13: so the restaurant, there are two clear advantages. One of

1153
00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:33,840
Speaker 13: those is the labor redistribution or replacement. So very often

1154
00:56:33,880 --> 00:56:36,680
Speaker 13: they're not actually removing that at that staff member, they're

1155
00:56:36,680 --> 00:56:38,640
Speaker 13: putting in somewhere else in the restaurant, so they could

1156
00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:41,719
Speaker 13: man the front counter or do other things. But that

1157
00:56:42,040 --> 00:56:45,520
Speaker 13: increases the labor efficiency. Then on the other side, it's

1158
00:56:45,560 --> 00:56:48,359
Speaker 13: the up cell, so you also get revenue increase, and

1159
00:56:48,400 --> 00:56:51,279
Speaker 13: that's the result of humans are actually pretty inconsistent and

1160
00:56:51,320 --> 00:56:53,800
Speaker 13: quite bad at upselling or saying you would you like

1161
00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:56,440
Speaker 13: to make that a combo? Have you tried our ice cream?

1162
00:56:56,480 --> 00:56:59,680
Speaker 13: For example, AI does it for awnestly every time because

1163
00:56:59,680 --> 00:57:01,400
Speaker 13: it's a as a system, and it can also do

1164
00:57:01,480 --> 00:57:03,480
Speaker 13: it in a very predictive manner, so it can collect

1165
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:06,120
Speaker 13: data over the days and over the weeks to say, well,

1166
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:08,240
Speaker 13: you know, last time we try to upsell this item,

1167
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:08,800
Speaker 13: it worked.

1168
00:57:08,880 --> 00:57:10,359
Speaker 2: This one didn't, so I'm going to try this.

1169
00:57:10,360 --> 00:57:13,120
Speaker 13: Item a bit more So from a restaurant perspective, you

1170
00:57:13,120 --> 00:57:15,839
Speaker 13: get greater revenue or greater check size, and you also

1171
00:57:15,960 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 13: have more efficient or less labor costs, so you get

1172
00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:21,800
Speaker 13: a really significant impact for the customer as in sorry,

1173
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,640
Speaker 13: the end of consumer. The advantage for them, I think

1174
00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,600
Speaker 13: is also the consistency of the system. So you know,

1175
00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:29,160
Speaker 13: very often if you pull up and you speak to

1176
00:57:29,160 --> 00:57:30,760
Speaker 13: a different person every day, you might get a very

1177
00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:32,880
Speaker 13: different experience. You might not be able to understand them,

1178
00:57:32,880 --> 00:57:36,000
Speaker 13: they might be a minute before they come to you.

1179
00:57:36,000 --> 00:57:37,720
Speaker 13: You don't get any of those issues. So we find

1180
00:57:37,760 --> 00:57:40,880
Speaker 13: that our customers and the end consumers are both very

1181
00:57:40,920 --> 00:57:42,000
Speaker 13: pro the system.

1182
00:57:42,840 --> 00:57:45,160
Speaker 2: And who's using this system and how tough is it

1183
00:57:45,160 --> 00:57:45,840
Speaker 2: to get started.

1184
00:57:48,120 --> 00:57:50,760
Speaker 13: In terms of the industry altogether, we are now kind

1185
00:57:50,760 --> 00:57:52,760
Speaker 13: of at the major roll out phase. So this is

1186
00:57:52,800 --> 00:57:55,200
Speaker 13: where over the last two years, a lot of large

1187
00:57:55,280 --> 00:57:57,760
Speaker 13: chains and medium chains have begin trialing this. They've been

1188
00:57:57,800 --> 00:58:00,680
Speaker 13: picking their supplies, they've been honing this systems, and they're

1189
00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:03,320
Speaker 13: now enrolled out. So whilst it may only be in

1190
00:58:03,360 --> 00:58:05,880
Speaker 13: sort of around one percent of all drive throughs at

1191
00:58:05,880 --> 00:58:09,000
Speaker 13: this stage, that that number is increasing very very quickly,

1192
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:12,760
Speaker 13: and so you will expect to see that change quite

1193
00:58:12,760 --> 00:58:16,240
Speaker 13: significantly over the coming months and months and years. In

1194
00:58:16,360 --> 00:58:19,680
Speaker 13: terms of barriers to entry, there are very few. So

1195
00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:22,520
Speaker 13: the system that we install is is a very small

1196
00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:24,760
Speaker 13: box that we put into the speaker box and then

1197
00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:27,400
Speaker 13: a vast majority of it is hosted on the cloud

1198
00:58:27,640 --> 00:58:29,960
Speaker 13: on our end, and so there is no real barrier

1199
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:32,200
Speaker 13: to who can have this and who cannot. You don't

1200
00:58:32,200 --> 00:58:34,320
Speaker 13: have to be McDonald's or Burger you can have this.

1201
00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:36,920
Speaker 13: We have a number of customers who are in the

1202
00:58:37,040 --> 00:58:39,360
Speaker 13: kind of what we describe as the mid market, so

1203
00:58:39,400 --> 00:58:41,760
Speaker 13: they can be a smaller number of stores, but they

1204
00:58:41,800 --> 00:58:45,480
Speaker 13: can still get the same efficiencies in a large one.

1205
00:58:43,760 --> 00:58:45,320
Speaker 5: To do so.

1206
00:58:45,960 --> 00:58:48,040
Speaker 1: You know, we saw with the automation of you know,

1207
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:50,560
Speaker 1: eight hundred numbers, people just say can I have an operator?

1208
00:58:50,920 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: Like do you have the option of getting a human

1209
00:58:53,720 --> 00:58:55,920
Speaker 1: if you want one? And are people asking for that

1210
00:58:56,080 --> 00:58:57,200
Speaker 1: or they like this system?

1211
00:58:57,520 --> 00:58:59,320
Speaker 13: Yeah, So people can say can I'd like to speak

1212
00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:01,320
Speaker 13: to a human and they be put through to the store.

1213
00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:06,120
Speaker 13: It's actually very rare that they do that because the

1214
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:10,720
Speaker 13: order is being taken quickly and efficiently, and people tend

1215
00:59:10,720 --> 00:59:12,840
Speaker 13: to want to get through the drive through quickly themselves.

1216
00:59:12,840 --> 00:59:14,480
Speaker 13: To go and ask for a human just makes your

1217
00:59:14,520 --> 00:59:17,800
Speaker 13: experience longer. And as a result, they only really do

1218
00:59:17,880 --> 00:59:21,320
Speaker 13: it if somebody is you know, maybe technically struggling with it.

1219
00:59:21,400 --> 00:59:25,200
Speaker 13: Orbit in a vast majority of instance, they don't even notice,

1220
00:59:25,400 --> 00:59:28,120
Speaker 13: or sometimes if they have a very specific allergy or question.

1221
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:31,040
Speaker 13: In that instance, it is always important to go through

1222
00:59:31,080 --> 00:59:32,880
Speaker 13: to the store and ask system alos you to do that.

1223
00:59:34,240 --> 00:59:36,880
Speaker 2: And so how is the AI at taking orders?

1224
00:59:38,400 --> 00:59:41,080
Speaker 13: Yeah, it's getting it's getting better. I would say that

1225
00:59:41,280 --> 00:59:43,640
Speaker 13: if you'd ask me that two years ago. The technology

1226
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:46,560
Speaker 13: was still pretty nascent and so it was effective, but

1227
00:59:46,640 --> 00:59:48,680
Speaker 13: it had, you know, lots of things that couldn't quite

1228
00:59:48,720 --> 00:59:50,880
Speaker 13: do it wouldn't be able to handle certain questions, or

1229
00:59:50,920 --> 00:59:53,800
Speaker 13: wouldn't be able to handle specials or coupons or things.

1230
00:59:53,800 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 13: But in particular over the last six months, the rate

1231
00:59:56,920 --> 00:59:59,960
Speaker 13: of pace of advancement has been you know, quite extraordin.

1232
01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:03,120
Speaker 13: You know, our system can now do things such as

1233
01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:09,160
Speaker 13: coupons or special offers or very complicated combos. You know,

1234
01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:10,960
Speaker 13: we have a menu for a client that we've just

1235
01:00:11,040 --> 01:00:13,520
Speaker 13: signed where I think the total number of different combinations

1236
01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:15,920
Speaker 13: is in the billions because their menu is so complicated

1237
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:18,840
Speaker 13: and it can handle it can handle all of those things.

1238
01:00:19,720 --> 01:00:21,880
Speaker 13: We can also do phone ordering now, so people ring

1239
01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:23,560
Speaker 13: up the restaurant and say I want to place a

1240
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:26,160
Speaker 13: catering order, we have the ability to handle that order

1241
01:00:26,200 --> 01:00:29,240
Speaker 13: as well. So there's there's very little, if anything, which

1242
01:00:29,280 --> 01:00:31,240
Speaker 13: can now not be done with AI that used to

1243
01:00:31,240 --> 01:00:32,040
Speaker 13: be done with humans.

1244
01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:35,280
Speaker 2: And what have you learned in this process about how

1245
01:00:35,320 --> 01:00:38,960
Speaker 2: people order or you know, something that you didn't really

1246
01:00:38,960 --> 01:00:41,360
Speaker 2: think about before and how you had to implement it.

1247
01:00:42,760 --> 01:00:45,880
Speaker 13: I think the complexity of the drive through is the

1248
01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:48,080
Speaker 13: big one, and I'm going to split that into two things.

1249
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:51,040
Speaker 13: One is that there is the kind of technical complexity

1250
01:00:51,760 --> 01:00:53,760
Speaker 13: of the drive through. So there's so many systems that

1251
01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:56,560
Speaker 13: actually sit behind the scenes that people don't see. So

1252
01:00:56,600 --> 01:00:59,560
Speaker 13: you've got a different POS system and base station system

1253
01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:03,080
Speaker 13: in all of these different chains. And the menu complexity

1254
01:01:03,120 --> 01:01:06,000
Speaker 13: at the back end is incredibly difficult to navigate, and

1255
01:01:06,040 --> 01:01:07,320
Speaker 13: that's something that we have to spend a lot.

1256
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:07,840
Speaker 5: Of time doing.

1257
01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:10,200
Speaker 13: But then on the second box, it's just the things

1258
01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:12,880
Speaker 13: that happen in the drive through you would just not imagine.

1259
01:01:12,920 --> 01:01:15,560
Speaker 13: So every drive through environment is different, and that's why

1260
01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:18,680
Speaker 13: it has taken us a couple of years in order

1261
01:01:18,720 --> 01:01:20,640
Speaker 13: to hone our system to the quality it is today.

1262
01:01:21,000 --> 01:01:23,080
Speaker 13: You think about some drive throughs the next to freeways,

1263
01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:25,440
Speaker 13: and other ones are not. Some drive throughs are in

1264
01:01:25,560 --> 01:01:28,560
Speaker 13: you very heavy rain areas, and other ones are not.

1265
01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:30,960
Speaker 13: You have people pulling up with three kids in the car,

1266
01:01:31,040 --> 01:01:33,760
Speaker 13: shouting every menu item you can possibly imagine. You have

1267
01:01:33,840 --> 01:01:36,640
Speaker 13: people ordering for the wrong restaurant they think they're at,

1268
01:01:36,920 --> 01:01:38,720
Speaker 13: you know, they think they're at one restaurant actually another.

1269
01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:41,240
Speaker 13: You have to be able to handle all of those

1270
01:01:41,360 --> 01:01:43,520
Speaker 13: edge cases, and so that non intervention rate that I

1271
01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:46,440
Speaker 13: told you has improved significantly over the last year. But

1272
01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:48,320
Speaker 13: a lot of those interventions used to be for stuff

1273
01:01:48,360 --> 01:01:50,680
Speaker 13: that you would never have dreamed of until you started doing.

1274
01:01:51,000 --> 01:01:55,000
Speaker 1: Getting one of these jobs an order taker, while it's imperfect,

1275
01:01:55,040 --> 01:01:57,000
Speaker 1: you know, it's kind of an entry level job.

1276
01:01:57,160 --> 01:01:59,200
Speaker 2: And you know, is that going away or are we

1277
01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:00,800
Speaker 2: going to have this job in the future.

1278
01:02:02,480 --> 01:02:05,560
Speaker 13: I think the actual taking of the order probably not.

1279
01:02:06,480 --> 01:02:08,560
Speaker 13: I think these systems are going to get so robust,

1280
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:10,800
Speaker 13: but I don't think that that means that fewer people

1281
01:02:10,840 --> 01:02:13,200
Speaker 13: are going to be working usr are working for these brands.

1282
01:02:13,280 --> 01:02:15,040
Speaker 13: As I say, a lot of what we talk about

1283
01:02:15,080 --> 01:02:19,080
Speaker 13: is labor redistribution, not labor replacement. So the ability for

1284
01:02:19,240 --> 01:02:21,960
Speaker 13: in a very competitive environment for your brand to be

1285
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:24,560
Speaker 13: more customer friendly and more effective because you've got more

1286
01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:28,760
Speaker 13: people doing front of counter, doing the stock, doing the cleaning,

1287
01:02:28,800 --> 01:02:31,880
Speaker 13: and making your overall brand more successful for the same cost.

1288
01:02:32,240 --> 01:02:33,840
Speaker 13: So rather than it being hey, I want to take

1289
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:36,000
Speaker 13: ten percent of my wage bill, it's I want my

1290
01:02:36,080 --> 01:02:39,120
Speaker 13: brand to be more successful, more customer friendly, have more

1291
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:41,520
Speaker 13: people on the floor for the same price that I

1292
01:02:41,560 --> 01:02:43,560
Speaker 13: currently am doing it, and that's what our system allows.

1293
01:02:43,640 --> 01:02:45,920
Speaker 13: So I don't think that this is some huge threat

1294
01:02:45,920 --> 01:02:48,160
Speaker 13: to jobs. I think it's just going to change the

1295
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:49,800
Speaker 13: way that people interact with the driver.

1296
01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:53,480
Speaker 1: And finally, any hacks for the customer or anything to know,

1297
01:02:53,600 --> 01:02:55,240
Speaker 1: like how do you know you're talking to AI? And

1298
01:02:55,280 --> 01:02:57,440
Speaker 1: is there anything fun you can do with it in

1299
01:02:57,480 --> 01:02:58,120
Speaker 1: the drive throw?

1300
01:02:58,960 --> 01:02:59,600
Speaker 2: So how do you know?

1301
01:02:59,680 --> 01:03:01,840
Speaker 13: So it's interesting some of our customers want it to

1302
01:03:01,880 --> 01:03:04,400
Speaker 13: sound like a robot because they want the customer to

1303
01:03:04,440 --> 01:03:06,160
Speaker 13: know it's AI, because it could be quite helpful for

1304
01:03:06,200 --> 01:03:08,520
Speaker 13: the interaction. But we also have an option, which is

1305
01:03:08,600 --> 01:03:11,120
Speaker 13: human voice, which is near impossible to tell that you're

1306
01:03:11,120 --> 01:03:14,640
Speaker 13: speaking to to to AI in that instance, and that

1307
01:03:14,680 --> 01:03:17,320
Speaker 13: depends on the brand as to what they're what they're

1308
01:03:17,360 --> 01:03:20,280
Speaker 13: doing in terms of like cool things you can do,

1309
01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:23,439
Speaker 13: So asking it, you know, interesting questions is a good

1310
01:03:23,560 --> 01:03:24,960
Speaker 13: is a good way to is a good way to

1311
01:03:25,000 --> 01:03:27,160
Speaker 13: test it out and see and see what responses you get.

1312
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:29,320
Speaker 13: We are working on a system at the moment, oh sorry,

1313
01:03:29,360 --> 01:03:30,920
Speaker 13: a program at the moment which will be to put

1314
01:03:30,960 --> 01:03:34,200
Speaker 13: some Easter eggs in to to this. So you know,

1315
01:03:34,400 --> 01:03:37,400
Speaker 13: for certain brands, we think it could be really interesting

1316
01:03:37,400 --> 01:03:39,320
Speaker 13: if you put on social media being like hey, next

1317
01:03:39,360 --> 01:03:42,200
Speaker 13: time you're ordering from the AI, say this phrase and

1318
01:03:42,240 --> 01:03:46,040
Speaker 13: get like a free, a free, increasing your drink size

1319
01:03:46,080 --> 01:03:49,200
Speaker 13: or something that we think could be hugely interesting because

1320
01:03:49,240 --> 01:03:51,760
Speaker 13: I think it will begin to get real social interaction

1321
01:03:51,880 --> 01:03:54,360
Speaker 13: going with the AI, and that's something we'll be working

1322
01:03:54,360 --> 01:03:55,520
Speaker 13: on in the coming weeks as well.

1323
01:03:56,200 --> 01:03:59,800
Speaker 1: There you have it, Geel a fare from Prestol. They

1324
01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:03,680
Speaker 1: are putting AI in the drive through fast food restaurant

1325
01:04:03,840 --> 01:04:08,200
Speaker 1: ordering windows. Fascinating how that's happening, and I guarantee you

1326
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:11,280
Speaker 1: will encounter it at some point. Not every restaurant's doing it,

1327
01:04:11,720 --> 01:04:13,440
Speaker 1: but you know, if they can save money be more

1328
01:04:13,480 --> 01:04:16,840
Speaker 1: efficient and of course upsell like you heard them say, yeah,

1329
01:04:16,840 --> 01:04:18,840
Speaker 1: they're probably going to do it. And this kind of

1330
01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:23,280
Speaker 1: goes with this new report from researchers at open AI,

1331
01:04:23,440 --> 01:04:26,720
Speaker 1: Open Research and UPEN, which talks about the jobs that

1332
01:04:26,760 --> 01:04:30,160
Speaker 1: are most at risk from AI. A new report says

1333
01:04:30,160 --> 01:04:32,600
Speaker 1: about eighty percent of US workers could see at least

1334
01:04:32,640 --> 01:04:35,800
Speaker 1: ten percent of their job tasks affected by generative AI.

1335
01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:39,480
Speaker 1: Nearly one in five workers may see fifty percent of

1336
01:04:39,520 --> 01:04:43,680
Speaker 1: their tasks impacted. Researchers looked at GPT models and other

1337
01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:48,800
Speaker 1: generative AI capabilities, things like text coding, image generation, video generation.

1338
01:04:50,240 --> 01:04:53,000
Speaker 1: Impact does not necessarily mean job loss. It could mean

1339
01:04:53,040 --> 01:04:56,680
Speaker 1: automation of tasks, like not your entire role, so things

1340
01:04:56,680 --> 01:05:00,440
Speaker 1: that you might do might be automated through AI. The

1341
01:05:00,560 --> 01:05:03,000
Speaker 1: jobs with the highest exposure tend to be white collar,

1342
01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:07,320
Speaker 1: high skilled, non technical roles. But the main takeaways AI

1343
01:05:07,440 --> 01:05:09,280
Speaker 1: is not going to take every job, but it will

1344
01:05:09,400 --> 01:05:11,920
Speaker 1: change how a lot of people work. Like you'd like that,

1345
01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:15,520
Speaker 1: Like the CEO just said, we're not trying to get

1346
01:05:15,640 --> 01:05:17,600
Speaker 1: rid of jobs at the drive through, but the way

1347
01:05:17,640 --> 01:05:19,760
Speaker 1: people work, if they work at a fast food place,

1348
01:05:20,000 --> 01:05:22,600
Speaker 1: they may not be multitasking with the drive through order

1349
01:05:22,640 --> 01:05:25,200
Speaker 1: while they complete other tasks. They might just focus on

1350
01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:29,880
Speaker 1: those other tasks. But tasks, I mean this is really true.

1351
01:05:30,080 --> 01:05:33,680
Speaker 1: Tasks like writing emails, analyzing data, or drafting reports could

1352
01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:36,680
Speaker 1: be done faster or automatically. So now it's probably a

1353
01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:38,360
Speaker 1: good time to think about which parts of your job

1354
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:40,760
Speaker 1: could be done by AI, and what you think that

1355
01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:45,200
Speaker 1: AI cannot do so without further ado. The jobs most

1356
01:05:45,320 --> 01:05:51,360
Speaker 1: impacted by AI interpreters and translators, public relations specialists, court reporters,

1357
01:05:51,680 --> 01:06:00,000
Speaker 1: blockchain engineers, journalists, uh oh, accountants and auditors, legal secretaries, paralegals, writers, authors,

1358
01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:06,640
Speaker 1: web designers, developers, market research analysis again, market research analysts again.

1359
01:06:06,840 --> 01:06:08,520
Speaker 1: They may not go away, but they might be the

1360
01:06:08,520 --> 01:06:12,800
Speaker 1: most impacted. Jobs least impacted by AI. Here we go,

1361
01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:21,640
Speaker 1: short order cooks, mechanics, line installers, drivers, athletes, stonemasons.

1362
01:06:22,200 --> 01:06:23,680
Speaker 2: I mean that's kind of a random list.

1363
01:06:23,800 --> 01:06:25,520
Speaker 1: I think they just looked at like, like what can

1364
01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:27,720
Speaker 1: we find as like the randomeest list of things that

1365
01:06:27,800 --> 01:06:31,000
Speaker 1: like we'll just make this report sound better that like, Okay,

1366
01:06:31,040 --> 01:06:34,840
Speaker 1: if you're a stone Mason, you're you're fine. I mean, athlete,

1367
01:06:34,920 --> 01:06:37,520
Speaker 1: I guess it's time for me to uh start hitting

1368
01:06:37,520 --> 01:06:42,320
Speaker 1: the gym and learn, uh learn football eight to eight

1369
01:06:42,400 --> 01:06:44,439
Speaker 1: rich one on one eighty eight seven four to two,

1370
01:06:44,560 --> 01:06:46,760
Speaker 1: four one zero one. Coming up, we're gonna talk about

1371
01:06:46,760 --> 01:06:53,800
Speaker 1: baseball card collecting and how tech is changing that. Welcome

1372
01:06:53,840 --> 01:06:56,440
Speaker 1: back to rich on Tech. Rich DeMuro here hanging out

1373
01:06:56,440 --> 01:07:01,800
Speaker 1: with you, talking technology eight eight eight rich one eight

1374
01:07:01,840 --> 01:07:05,320
Speaker 1: eight eight seven four to two four one zero one.

1375
01:07:07,200 --> 01:07:09,320
Speaker 1: The playlist this week is from my mom? Is this

1376
01:07:09,600 --> 01:07:10,000
Speaker 1: what song?

1377
01:07:10,080 --> 01:07:10,600
Speaker 5: Is this? Bobo?

1378
01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:10,880
Speaker 1: Is this?

1379
01:07:11,720 --> 01:07:16,080
Speaker 2: Is this Sinatra? Okay? Frank Sinatra, Frank Sinatra my way?

1380
01:07:16,200 --> 01:07:18,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, So my wife and I on Sunday nights

1381
01:07:18,680 --> 01:07:21,040
Speaker 1: will do a thing called Sunday Supper and we just

1382
01:07:21,080 --> 01:07:23,600
Speaker 1: turn on the Frank Sinatra playlist.

1383
01:07:24,280 --> 01:07:28,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's great. Really takes you right back. Okay.

1384
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 1: Let's let's talk to Ted Man. He created an app

1385
01:07:31,000 --> 01:07:36,840
Speaker 1: called Collects really kind of revolutionized baseball card collecting, trading,

1386
01:07:37,080 --> 01:07:41,680

Speaker 5: It's every year it seems to get bigger and bigger.

1390
01:07:53,320 --> 01:07:55,880

01:07:55,920 --> 01:07:58,640
Speaker 5: and fifty thousand attendees, so it is way large. It

1392
01:07:58,720 --> 01:08:00,560
Speaker 5: took me a minute to run out trying to find

1393
01:08:00,560 --> 01:08:02,400
Speaker 5: a quiet place to talk. So I'm not doing it

1394
01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:04,880
Speaker 5: on the show floor. But it's been it's been a

1395

1401
01:08:19,120 --> 01:08:21,120
Speaker 1: course into it because of all the raw and graded

1402
01:08:21,160 --> 01:08:23,000
Speaker 1: and like I know all the lingo now, but it

1403
01:08:23,040 --> 01:08:26,280
Speaker 1: all started with your app. Explain quickly before we get

1404
01:08:26,280 --> 01:08:27,880
Speaker 1: into the show, like what you came up with a

1405
01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:28,599
Speaker 1: couple of years ago.

1406
01:08:29,120 --> 01:08:31,519
Speaker 5: I don't know whether to say, you know, you're welcome

1407
01:08:31,640 --> 01:08:34,400
Speaker 5: or I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah, how many parents have told

1409
01:08:36,120 --> 01:08:38,280
Speaker 5: kids are getting into it, and you know, it's a

1410
01:08:38,680 --> 01:08:40,639
Speaker 5: it's a kind of a double edged sword, but it's fun.

1411
01:08:40,760 --> 01:08:44,320
Speaker 5: It's that one's just for sure. So just to catch

01:08:51,400 --> 01:08:53,040
Speaker 5: three dozen people come up to me at the show

1416
01:08:53,080 --> 01:08:55,360

1427
01:09:22,200 --> 01:09:24,800
Speaker 5: to share because I I love listening to your show,

1428
01:09:24,920 --> 01:09:26,760
Speaker 5: like you were on my mind, not just because people

1429
01:09:26,800 --> 01:09:28,880
Speaker 5: were telling me they heard about the app from you,

1430
01:09:28,920 --> 01:09:31,040
Speaker 5: but also because I have it on my calendar. I

1431
01:09:31,080 --> 01:09:33,680
Speaker 5: try to listen every week. I knew this today I

1432
01:09:33,720 --> 01:09:34,920
Speaker 5: was going to be at the show, but I h

1433
01:09:36,040 --> 01:09:37,840
Speaker 5: I pinged you just because I thought it would be

1434
01:09:37,920 --> 01:09:39,519
Speaker 5: kind of fun to share some of the technology that

1435
01:09:39,560 --> 01:09:41,839
Speaker 5: I'm seeing. We've seeing a lot of cool tech stories

1436
01:09:41,880 --> 01:09:43,960
Speaker 5: here and I thought maybe it'd be fun to share

1437
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:46,920
Speaker 5: with your audience some of the not the collect story,

1438
01:09:46,960 --> 01:09:48,519
Speaker 5: which you've already shared, but like some of the other

1439
01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:50,120
Speaker 5: tech that we're seeing here at the show.

1440
01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:51,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, let me just I know, because people are

1441
01:09:51,920 --> 01:09:53,439
Speaker 1: going to want to download the app if they haven't

1442
01:09:53,520 --> 01:09:53,800
Speaker 1: used it.

1443
01:09:53,880 --> 01:09:58,479
Speaker 2: It's called COO l l X. That's what you search right, collects.

1444
01:09:58,160 --> 01:10:01,639
Speaker 5: Yep I phone Android, totally free app. Take a picture

1445
01:10:01,640 --> 01:10:04,400
Speaker 5: of any trading card, It'll identify it, you get the

1446
01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:07,200
Speaker 5: value and under a second and then you can build

1447
01:10:07,240 --> 01:10:11,280
Speaker 5: your collection. And we have a marketplace. Now. Marketplace is booming.

1448
01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:14,080
Speaker 5: It has been growing steadily and I think it's really

1449
01:10:14,200 --> 01:10:16,080
Speaker 5: kind of become a place that people look to buy

1450
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:18,519
Speaker 5: cards every bit as much, if not more than eBay.

1451
01:10:18,840 --> 01:10:21,439
Speaker 1: Wow, that's wild. So what's happening at the show? What

1452
01:10:21,479 --> 01:10:23,599
Speaker 1: are some of the neat things you're seeing there?

1453
01:10:24,600 --> 01:10:26,720
Speaker 5: So there were like sort of three text stories I

1454
01:10:26,720 --> 01:10:28,479
Speaker 5: was thinking about, like what are the most interesting kind

1455
01:10:28,479 --> 01:10:32,280
Speaker 5: of trends? And the first is is live live selling.

1456
01:10:33,760 --> 01:10:36,800
Speaker 5: So are you have you ever been on whatnot or

1457
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:38,600
Speaker 5: any of similar platforms.

1458
01:10:38,760 --> 01:10:42,439
Speaker 1: Yes, I did a segment with them, and it's wild.

1459
01:10:42,600 --> 01:10:44,679
Speaker 1: I mean, I'm not I don't do it personally, but yeah,

1460
01:10:44,680 --> 01:10:46,880
Speaker 1: I'm familiar with the idea. It's like QVC for like

1461
01:10:46,920 --> 01:10:49,160
Speaker 1: a you know, anyone can do it from their phone

1462
01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:50,960
Speaker 1: basically exactly.

1463
01:10:51,200 --> 01:10:53,920
Speaker 5: So, I mean it has become such a big part

1464
01:10:53,920 --> 01:10:57,519
Speaker 5: of the hobby. There is probably maybe a fifth of

1465
01:10:57,600 --> 01:10:59,160
Speaker 5: the show floor here and it's a big it's a

1466
01:10:59,160 --> 01:11:04,000
Speaker 5: big show all dedicated to to what Not streamers. Breakers.

1467
01:11:04,720 --> 01:11:10,120
Speaker 5: Braking is when you basically buy usually high end trading

1468
01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:13,120
Speaker 5: card product like like boxes for like a thousand dollars

1469
01:11:13,160 --> 01:11:15,559
Speaker 5: and rather than the most average shows that I'm going

1470
01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:17,040
Speaker 5: to spend a thousand dollars on the box, but they'll

1471
01:11:17,080 --> 01:11:19,360
Speaker 5: sell shares, you know, so you can buy your team

1472
01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:21,920
Speaker 5: for instead of a thousand dollars for maybe for like

1473
01:11:21,960 --> 01:11:24,280
Speaker 5: fifty bucks, and then you get all the cards from

1474
01:11:24,320 --> 01:11:26,559
Speaker 5: that team. So that's become a huge part of the

1475
01:11:27,040 --> 01:11:28,679
Speaker 5: of the of the space and the floor. It's really

1476
01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:31,200
Speaker 5: fun and exciting. We're right next to all these breakers

1477
01:11:31,240 --> 01:11:34,519
Speaker 5: and they are constantly ripping open all these packs and

1478
01:11:34,600 --> 01:11:37,479
Speaker 5: finding really big heads. We did a couple of breaks, actually,

1479
01:11:37,479 --> 01:11:41,200
Speaker 5: we did giveaways on Whatnot my team and pulled some

1480
01:11:41,320 --> 01:11:45,320
Speaker 5: loola like a Webby number to five. Yeah, yesterday, it

1481
01:11:45,400 --> 01:11:49,040
Speaker 5: was a big card, maybe a thousand dollars card and yeah,

1482
01:11:49,120 --> 01:11:52,439
Speaker 5: it's super fun. So that's one. You know, it's not

1483
01:11:52,680 --> 01:11:55,640
Speaker 5: just what not to. By the way, You've got Fanatics

1484
01:11:55,920 --> 01:11:59,080
Speaker 5: has a live streaming platform called Fanatics Live. You've also

1485
01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:01,920
Speaker 5: got Walmart believe it or not, and eBay all getting

1486
01:12:01,960 --> 01:12:02,840
Speaker 5: into the live selling.

1487
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:04,280
Speaker 2: Oh wow, Walmart too.

1488
01:12:04,360 --> 01:12:04,599
Speaker 3: Huh.

1489
01:12:05,439 --> 01:12:08,200
Speaker 5: Yeah. I kind of like it because it I used

1490
01:12:08,200 --> 01:12:10,400
Speaker 5: to go to auctions with my parents, and to me,

1491
01:12:11,080 --> 01:12:12,559
Speaker 5: you know, there was always you know, as a kid,

1492
01:12:12,520 --> 01:12:14,720
Speaker 5: there's always like an auctioneer. There's always a person kind

1493
01:12:14,720 --> 01:12:18,000
Speaker 5: of like pitching and selling this stuff, you know, like

1494
01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:21,679
Speaker 5: you know, the rapid fire like you know, auctioneer like ease. Yeah,

1495
01:12:21,720 --> 01:12:23,320
Speaker 5: And I kind of like it because it feels to

1496
01:12:23,360 --> 01:12:26,000
Speaker 5: me more like like what an auction was always supposed

1497
01:12:26,000 --> 01:12:29,200
Speaker 5: to be. So I think it's a really fun experience. Okay,

1498
01:12:29,479 --> 01:12:30,920
Speaker 5: dangerously addictive.

1499
01:12:30,760 --> 01:12:32,479
Speaker 2: Yes, yes. And people.

1500
01:12:32,560 --> 01:12:34,360
Speaker 1: I mean we we sat through there was like a

1501
01:12:34,400 --> 01:12:36,880
Speaker 1: sneaker place that was selling on whatnot and they sold

1502
01:12:36,960 --> 01:12:39,000
Speaker 1: I think, like I think it was like ten thousand

1503
01:12:39,040 --> 01:12:41,599
Speaker 1: dollars worth of shoes in like a couple of minutes,

1504
01:12:41,640 --> 01:12:42,639
Speaker 1: like eight minutes or something.

1505
01:12:42,920 --> 01:12:43,759
Speaker 2: It was pretty wild.

1506
01:12:44,320 --> 01:12:47,639
Speaker 5: It's nutty. So right, breakers are like one hundred million

1507
01:12:47,680 --> 01:12:48,160
Speaker 5: dollar business.

1508
01:12:48,200 --> 01:12:50,479
Speaker 1: I've got about a minute left. So what what else

1509
01:12:50,479 --> 01:12:51,080
Speaker 1: are you seeing there?

1510
01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:53,080
Speaker 2: Tech wise? You said three stories? What not live?

1511
01:12:53,200 --> 01:12:55,439
Speaker 5: Yeah? Two other I'll be quick. The other one is

1512
01:12:55,520 --> 01:12:58,080
Speaker 5: digital repacks. So one of the things that you were

1513
01:12:58,080 --> 01:12:59,840
Speaker 5: talking about grading cards. One of the things that's become

1514
01:12:59,840 --> 01:13:03,840
Speaker 5: really popular is people will buy like a graded card

1515
01:13:03,960 --> 01:13:06,640
Speaker 5: kind of like in a like in a box and

1516
01:13:06,680 --> 01:13:08,400
Speaker 5: then you basically rip it open like you would but

1517
01:13:08,479 --> 01:13:11,639
Speaker 5: rip over a pack of cards. So that's become like huge.

1518
01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:14,160
Speaker 5: There's companies like Derek Jeter start a one called Arena

1519
01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:17,800
Speaker 5: Club that does that courtyard. So I think that's really interesting.

1520
01:13:18,680 --> 01:13:20,960
Speaker 5: And you know, I think definitely a trend that I'm

1521
01:13:20,960 --> 01:13:23,760
Speaker 5: seeing in the last one is AI, right, so now

1522
01:13:23,800 --> 01:13:26,519
Speaker 5: you're seeing I mean not just like collectyle visual search

1523
01:13:26,600 --> 01:13:29,719
Speaker 5: eye that you see. There are a few few tools

1524
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:32,120
Speaker 5: now for like pricing AI. So you can figure out

1525
01:13:32,160 --> 01:13:34,479
Speaker 5: before you go buy a box of cards at your

1526
01:13:34,479 --> 01:13:36,439
Speaker 5: local hobby shop, and you can hop onto a site

1527
01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:39,360
Speaker 5: like wax sat and basically say is this the best

1528
01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:40,679
Speaker 5: price in Yeah.

1529
01:13:40,800 --> 01:13:41,639
Speaker 2: I got got to run.

1530
01:13:41,680 --> 01:13:43,840
Speaker 1: Hang on one second, we'll go to break Well, we'll

1531

01:13:56,080 --> 01:13:59,000
Speaker 1: We've still got a little bit to go here, and

1535
01:13:59,080 --> 01:14:00,600
Speaker 1: it could go on forever. I mean, we could just

1536
01:14:00,640 --> 01:14:00,880
Speaker 1: do this.

1537
01:14:00,960 --> 01:14:01,160
Speaker 6: I know.

1538
01:14:01,200 --> 01:14:05,639
Speaker 1: Bobo said he'll stay all day, so he said fine.

1539
01:14:05,320 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 1: Rich Rich on tech dot tv is the website to

1540
01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:09,680
Speaker 1: go to if you want links to anything that I

1541
01:14:09,760 --> 01:14:13,360
Speaker 1: mentioned here in the break. I'm slowly but surely switching

1542
01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:17,320
Speaker 1: over my two factor authentication codes to this new Proton

1543
01:14:17,400 --> 01:14:20,040
Speaker 1: Authenticator app. So if you are looking for a new

1544
01:14:20,120 --> 01:14:23,320
Speaker 1: authentication app, so far, I've found no flaws in this one.

1545
01:14:24,080 --> 01:14:26,160
Speaker 1: It seems to be really good. Hit all the things

1546
01:14:26,160 --> 01:14:28,320
Speaker 1: that I want in a good app. So check that out.

1547
01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:31,240
Speaker 1: Let's see we've got people I've been waiting on hold

1548
01:14:31,280 --> 01:14:33,360
Speaker 1: for extremely long time.

1549
01:14:33,439 --> 01:14:36,280
Speaker 2: Let's go to line four. Paul and Columbus. You're on

1550
01:14:36,360 --> 01:14:36,760
Speaker 2: with Rich.

1551
01:14:37,840 --> 01:14:40,599
Speaker 3: Hey, Rich, thanks for taking the call in good playlist

1552
01:14:40,680 --> 01:14:41,679
Speaker 3: from your mom there.

1553
01:14:41,760 --> 01:14:44,639
Speaker 1: Oh see, every time people seem to like it. Okay,

1554
01:14:44,680 --> 01:14:45,479
Speaker 1: what can I help you with?

1555
01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:45,880
Speaker 5: Oh?

1556
01:14:46,520 --> 01:14:49,919
Speaker 3: Probably more in my age range than yours, but anyway,

1557
01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:52,840
Speaker 3: I'll try to make a simple question and I can

1558
01:14:52,880 --> 01:14:57,120
Speaker 3: get more details. That's needed. Some apps when you're awaiting

1559
01:14:57,200 --> 01:15:03,439
Speaker 3: your home Wi Fi use to cellular data. Other ones

1560
01:15:03,680 --> 01:15:08,400
Speaker 3: require me to have a hotspot. Why and can you

1561
01:15:08,760 --> 01:15:12,800
Speaker 3: any there a third party software that could direct it otherwise.

1562
01:15:13,720 --> 01:15:18,720
Speaker 1: I I'm trying to so what apps require like a

1563
01:15:18,760 --> 01:15:21,519
Speaker 1: hot spot versus the cellular data because I haven't really

1564
01:15:21,560 --> 01:15:22,040
Speaker 1: run into that.

1565
01:15:22,080 --> 01:15:24,400
Speaker 2: I know that some apps want, you know.

1566
01:15:24,439 --> 01:15:28,000
Speaker 1: Sort of a better data connection, and so they'll have

1567
01:15:28,040 --> 01:15:30,000
Speaker 1: like an option that says, you know, only use Wi

1568
01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:30,840
Speaker 1: Fi by the fall.

1569
01:15:31,280 --> 01:15:33,480
Speaker 2: But what do you mean by that? Which apps specifically?

1570
01:15:33,560 --> 01:15:38,360
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, for example, I'm using the metaglasses. I'm visually

1571
01:15:38,360 --> 01:15:41,400
Speaker 3: impaired using the metaglasses, and they do really nice job

1572
01:15:41,439 --> 01:15:44,439
Speaker 3: and there's no you don't need a you know, a

1573
01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 3: special connection or hot spot. It will just work with

1574
01:15:47,360 --> 01:15:51,720
Speaker 3: your cellular data. There's another brand that's coming out that

1575
01:15:51,840 --> 01:15:54,400
Speaker 3: it looks very good, specifically made for people. It's this

1576
01:15:55,040 --> 01:16:00,920
Speaker 3: vision problem and they use they use them a form

1577
01:16:01,200 --> 01:16:04,240
Speaker 3: that you have to use a hot spot to get

1578
01:16:05,360 --> 01:16:07,280
Speaker 3: that while you're away from your Wi Fi.

1579
01:16:08,720 --> 01:16:13,080
Speaker 1: Interesting, Okay, so I think the the reason for that

1580
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:16,240
Speaker 1: is probably the data needs of that device. That's the

1581
01:16:16,280 --> 01:16:20,320
Speaker 1: only thing I can imagine that they because it's doing something,

1582
01:16:20,360 --> 01:16:22,639
Speaker 1: maybe it's doing something in real time, or it's it's

1583
01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:25,160
Speaker 1: pulling some sort of database, and it needs just what

1584
01:16:25,200 --> 01:16:27,639
Speaker 1: I would call like a you know, a fat connection

1585
01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:30,120
Speaker 1: to the internet, you know, like a bigger connection that

1586
01:16:30,120 --> 01:16:34,080
Speaker 1: that sort of can handle more data at once versus

1587
01:16:34,520 --> 01:16:37,720
Speaker 1: traditional cellular. But the thing is that's interesting is that

1588
01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:41,559
Speaker 1: traditional cellular has gotten so good that it's really not

1589
01:16:41,720 --> 01:16:42,320
Speaker 1: an issue.

1590
01:16:42,360 --> 01:16:43,559
Speaker 2: Like I go through all my apps.

1591
01:16:43,600 --> 01:16:45,240
Speaker 1: The first thing I do when I set up a

1592
01:16:45,240 --> 01:16:47,600
Speaker 1: new phone, you know, I test all these phones, is

1593
01:16:47,640 --> 01:16:50,240
Speaker 1: I just go through all the apps like Spotify, Netflix,

1594
01:16:50,280 --> 01:16:52,960
Speaker 1: this and that they all default to wanting to just

1595
01:16:53,000 --> 01:16:55,720
Speaker 1: download on Wi Fi. I'm like, no, my cellular's great, Like,

1596
01:16:55,800 --> 01:16:58,880
Speaker 1: go ahead, use as much data as you want. So

1597
01:16:58,920 --> 01:17:00,519
Speaker 1: that's the only thing I can think of, is that's

1598
01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:04,280
Speaker 1: a specific need of that app. Are you on iPhone

1599
01:17:04,360 --> 01:17:08,680
Speaker 1: or Android? Okay, I was gonna say so. For iPhone,

1600
01:17:09,160 --> 01:17:12,920
Speaker 1: there's really not a way to control the data that

1601
01:17:12,960 --> 01:17:15,080
Speaker 1: the apps use, Like there's not a way to like

1602
01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:18,000
Speaker 1: that I know of too easily unless it's in the

1603
01:17:18,080 --> 01:17:20,960
Speaker 1: app settings. There's not really a way to sort of

1604
01:17:21,000 --> 01:17:23,160
Speaker 1: command what that app does with data.

1605
01:17:23,520 --> 01:17:23,720
Speaker 2: I know.

1606
01:17:23,800 --> 01:17:26,400
Speaker 1: On Android, there's an app that I can't think of off

1607
01:17:26,280 --> 01:17:30,040
Speaker 1: the top of my head. But it's an app. Oh gosh,

1608
01:17:30,240 --> 01:17:32,240
Speaker 1: I gotta find it. But it's an app that lets

1609
01:17:32,280 --> 01:17:36,559
Speaker 1: you kind of change how other apps can use data.

1610
01:17:36,680 --> 01:17:38,320
Speaker 1: Like you can go in there and say, I only

1611
01:17:38,360 --> 01:17:40,519
Speaker 1: want my kindle to use Wi Fi, I only want

1612
01:17:40,520 --> 01:17:42,559
Speaker 1: my kindle to use Cellular, And you can do it

1613
01:17:42,600 --> 01:17:44,960
Speaker 1: for a case by case basis for any app, even

1614
01:17:45,000 --> 01:17:49,080
Speaker 1: if the app itself doesn't allow it. So I guess

1615
01:17:49,160 --> 01:17:51,800
Speaker 1: the long answer to your question is that I have

1616
01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:54,599
Speaker 1: not really seen that in a big way, but that's

1617
01:17:54,640 --> 01:17:57,000
Speaker 1: the only kind of solution I can think of.

1618
01:17:57,400 --> 01:17:58,280
Speaker 2: If you want to send.

1619
01:17:58,160 --> 01:18:01,160
Speaker 1: Me an email with the name of the actual product,

1620
01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:02,680
Speaker 1: I can look into it a little bit more and

1621
01:18:02,720 --> 01:18:04,679
Speaker 1: see like what their reasoning is and I can maybe

1622
01:18:04,680 --> 01:18:05,320
Speaker 1: even reach.

1623
01:18:05,160 --> 01:18:06,639
Speaker 2: Out to them.

1624
01:18:06,880 --> 01:18:08,360
Speaker 1: So if you want to do that, you know the

1625
01:18:08,360 --> 01:18:11,280
Speaker 1: email address it's you can just send it to hello

1626
01:18:11,320 --> 01:18:13,439
Speaker 1: at rich on tech dot TV and that will get

1627
01:18:13,439 --> 01:18:16,160
Speaker 1: it to you or get it to me. Paul, Thanks

1628
01:18:16,200 --> 01:18:19,120
Speaker 1: for the question today. I appreciate you calling in from Columbus.

1629
01:18:19,200 --> 01:18:20,640
Speaker 2: Let's go to ka.

1630
01:18:20,880 --> 01:18:24,759
Speaker 1: Kay has also been waiting for a long time here

1631
01:18:24,800 --> 01:18:27,760
Speaker 1: in Sherman Oaks, Okay, you're on with Rich.

1632
01:18:28,640 --> 01:18:32,120
Speaker 10: Oh Rich, thank you so much worse the wait definitely.

1633
01:18:31,840 --> 01:18:33,679
Speaker 1: Well, we don't have the answer, yes, so don't don't

1634
01:18:33,680 --> 01:18:34,640
Speaker 1: say that prematurely.

1635
01:18:35,320 --> 01:18:37,960
Speaker 10: Okay, fair, No, what can.

1636
01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:38,360
Speaker 2: I help you with?

1637
01:18:39,479 --> 01:18:44,560
Speaker 10: Well, I did. I have an Android A fifteen, okay, Samsung,

1638
01:18:44,680 --> 01:18:47,839
Speaker 10: and I'm really happy with it. I did my first

1639
01:18:48,200 --> 01:18:52,920
Speaker 10: update about six or seven days ago. And after I

1640
01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:55,760
Speaker 10: did the update, which I believe it's called you I

1641
01:18:56,280 --> 01:18:57,360
Speaker 10: seven point zero.

1642
01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:01,200
Speaker 14: Yes, okay, it recons figured my phone, and I know

1643
01:19:01,280 --> 01:19:05,600
Speaker 14: that that happens when people do updates, but to the

1644
01:19:05,720 --> 01:19:08,919
Speaker 14: detriment of my ability to use the phone.

1645
01:19:09,000 --> 01:19:12,920
Speaker 10: So I have many windows. When I load Google Chrome,

1646
01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:17,360
Speaker 10: the windows aren't completely websites aren't completely loading. There's a

1647
01:19:17,400 --> 01:19:23,200
Speaker 10: lot of blank spots. I have been trying to troubleshoot myself,

1648
01:19:23,439 --> 01:19:26,960
Speaker 10: just researching, but I can. I haven't found it, so

1649
01:19:27,040 --> 01:19:29,960
Speaker 10: I defer to your expertise. I definitely need help. I

1650
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:33,360
Speaker 10: don't it seems to be an extension issue, but I

1651
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:34,360
Speaker 10: don't know for certain.

1652
01:19:34,560 --> 01:19:34,840
Speaker 2: Okay.

1653
01:19:34,840 --> 01:19:37,240
Speaker 1: So you updated to the one UI seven, which is

1654
01:19:37,800 --> 01:19:39,799
Speaker 1: you know, almost their latest.

1655
01:19:39,840 --> 01:19:40,000
Speaker 6: One.

1656
01:19:40,080 --> 01:19:42,680
Speaker 1: UI eight is Samsung's newest, but only a couple a

1657
01:19:42,760 --> 01:19:45,759
Speaker 1: handful of phones have that. So you got a pretty

1658
01:19:45,840 --> 01:19:48,800
Speaker 1: major software update with one UI seven. Did this add

1659
01:19:48,840 --> 01:19:50,320
Speaker 1: any AI features to your phone?

1660
01:19:50,400 --> 01:19:50,560
Speaker 6: Or no?

1661
01:19:51,439 --> 01:19:51,840
Speaker 5: It did?

1662
01:19:51,880 --> 01:19:55,920
Speaker 10: And I don't. I'm very I'm tech friendly, but I

1663
01:19:56,000 --> 01:20:00,799
Speaker 10: really don't want AI chat. It did load Google Gemini

1664
01:20:01,160 --> 01:20:03,920
Speaker 10: very I can't. I haven't. I would like to not

1665
01:20:04,040 --> 01:20:04,680
Speaker 10: have it on the.

1666
01:20:05,360 --> 01:20:06,800
Speaker 2: Well, I don't know if you can go back on that.

1667
01:20:06,840 --> 01:20:08,720
Speaker 1: I know that's kind of tricky, but there is a

1668
01:20:08,760 --> 01:20:13,240
Speaker 1: setting in Galaxy AI in your settings. There's now what

1669
01:20:13,320 --> 01:20:15,679
Speaker 1: I recommend. Typically when you get a big software update.

1670
01:20:15,680 --> 01:20:18,160
Speaker 1: You said you're tech friendly, So what I like to do?

1671
01:20:18,200 --> 01:20:19,400
Speaker 1: And I said, I like to do this on my

1672
01:20:19,439 --> 01:20:21,800
Speaker 1: Friday or Saturday nights instead of going out hanging out

1673
01:20:21,840 --> 01:20:24,080
Speaker 1: with friends. I like to go through the settings on

1674
01:20:24,160 --> 01:20:26,639
Speaker 1: my smartphone and just kind of see all the different

1675
01:20:26,640 --> 01:20:30,559
Speaker 1: options I have. Right, I'm kind of joking, but I

1676
01:20:30,600 --> 01:20:32,719
Speaker 1: do like to do this. Maybe you're not joking.

1677
01:20:33,560 --> 01:20:34,320
Speaker 2: I'm not doing it on a.

1678
01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:36,000
Speaker 1: Friday or Saturday night, but you know what I mean, like, just,

1679
01:20:36,280 --> 01:20:38,559
Speaker 1: you know, take some time to go through all the

1680
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:41,519
Speaker 1: new options you have, because there are a lot, but

1681
01:20:41,680 --> 01:20:45,400
Speaker 1: specifically with Galaxy AI, there is an option under your

1682
01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:49,879
Speaker 1: settings under Galaxy AI to process data only on device,

1683
01:20:50,439 --> 01:20:52,599
Speaker 1: and that means it's only going to do the things

1684
01:20:52,880 --> 01:20:55,439
Speaker 1: that it can do without pinging the internet, So that

1685
01:20:55,479 --> 01:20:58,280
Speaker 1: will actually kind of limit some of the AI features

1686
01:20:58,280 --> 01:21:01,120
Speaker 1: on that device. That's number one. When it comes to Chrome.

1687
01:21:02,000 --> 01:21:03,519
Speaker 1: It sounds to me when you say, what do you

1688
01:21:03,520 --> 01:21:05,800
Speaker 1: mean by extension? What do you have installed in there?

1689
01:21:05,800 --> 01:21:07,759
Speaker 1: That's that could be interfering with Chrome?

1690
01:21:08,439 --> 01:21:14,000
Speaker 10: I don't know, And let me just I'm I'm user friendly.

1691
01:21:14,200 --> 01:21:15,280
Speaker 10: I'm not tech savvy.

1692
01:21:15,400 --> 01:21:16,280
Speaker 2: Okay, God, that's.

1693
01:21:16,160 --> 01:21:20,080
Speaker 10: An important correction. Yeah, Okay, So when I the Windows

1694
01:21:20,080 --> 01:21:24,040
Speaker 10: don't load since I did the update, they don't load completely.

1695
01:21:24,479 --> 01:21:27,400
Speaker 10: Pictures prompts with the little where it has a lot

1696
01:21:27,439 --> 01:21:31,519
Speaker 10: of like pre configured questions and you can tap the arrow,

1697
01:21:31,960 --> 01:21:33,080
Speaker 10: everything's frozen.

1698
01:21:33,240 --> 01:21:36,839
Speaker 1: Okay, So it's all kind of messed up on Chrome specifically. Okay,

1699
01:21:36,920 --> 01:21:39,679
Speaker 1: So have you gone through and have you made sure

1700
01:21:39,760 --> 01:21:42,720
Speaker 1: all your apps are updated after you did the software update? Like,

1701
01:21:42,760 --> 01:21:44,519
Speaker 1: did you go into Google Play and make sure all

1702
01:21:44,520 --> 01:21:45,519
Speaker 1: your apps are up to date?

1703
01:21:46,400 --> 01:21:50,120
Speaker 10: I don't even use google Play. I only use I

1704
01:21:50,760 --> 01:21:55,519
Speaker 10: use the least amount of permissions I did. I have

1705
01:21:55,680 --> 01:21:58,200
Speaker 10: gone through everything as much as I know how, and

1706
01:21:58,280 --> 01:22:04,200
Speaker 10: I've repeatedly gone through settings within the apps settings, you

1707
01:22:04,240 --> 01:22:08,720
Speaker 10: know internally apps on the phone, and then actually settings

1708
01:22:08,760 --> 01:22:13,719
Speaker 10: through Chrome Live. Let's say, does that answer your question?

1709
01:22:13,800 --> 01:22:15,640
Speaker 1: Okay, so yeah, So what I would do is I

1710
01:22:15,680 --> 01:22:18,040
Speaker 1: would open up Google Play. I know you don't have

1711
01:22:18,080 --> 01:22:19,880
Speaker 1: to install anything new, but I want to make sure

1712
01:22:19,920 --> 01:22:21,720
Speaker 1: that all your apps are updated. So there's a couple

1713
01:22:21,720 --> 01:22:24,439
Speaker 1: of things I'd like you to do. Number one and

1714
01:22:24,479 --> 01:22:26,000
Speaker 1: I'll put this all in the show notes. You don't

1715
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:27,559
Speaker 1: have to like write it all down. But number one,

1716
01:22:27,600 --> 01:22:30,479
Speaker 1: go into Google Play and you know, you got to

1717
01:22:30,520 --> 01:22:33,080
Speaker 1: tap your profile in the upper right hand corner. It

1718
01:22:33,120 --> 01:22:36,680
Speaker 1: says manage apps and Devices, and then it says overview

1719
01:22:36,800 --> 01:22:39,800
Speaker 1: apps up to date, or you can say you can

1720
01:22:39,840 --> 01:22:42,080
Speaker 1: tap that and say check for app updates. That's the

1721
01:22:42,200 --> 01:22:43,600
Speaker 1: number one thing you have to do is check for

1722
01:22:43,640 --> 01:22:46,160
Speaker 1: your app updates. Make sure that Chrome is on the

1723
01:22:46,200 --> 01:22:48,479
Speaker 1: latest version, because you might be running an old version

1724
01:22:48,479 --> 01:22:51,040
Speaker 1: of Chrome now with a new operating system. They might

1725
01:22:51,040 --> 01:22:54,120
Speaker 1: be competing with each other and something's going wrong. That's

1726
01:22:54,200 --> 01:22:57,679
Speaker 1: number one. Number two, then you have to go into

1727
01:22:57,880 --> 01:23:02,200
Speaker 1: what's called the Galaxy Store, and this is Samsung's own

1728
01:23:03,000 --> 01:23:06,479
Speaker 1: app updates. And so if you go into your apps

1729
01:23:06,479 --> 01:23:10,760
Speaker 1: your list of apps, and you type store. You can

1730
01:23:10,800 --> 01:23:14,719
Speaker 1: find the Galaxy Store and this is Samsung's own version

1731
01:23:14,800 --> 01:23:16,920
Speaker 1: of Google Play. And you go to the menu there

1732
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:19,920
Speaker 1: and it says updates. You tap that, and then you

1733
01:23:19,960 --> 01:23:22,840
Speaker 1: tap update all and that will update all your Samsung apps.

1734
01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:24,679
Speaker 1: So again we're just getting your phone to a place

1735
01:23:24,920 --> 01:23:26,680
Speaker 1: where everything is up to date and good to go.

1736
01:23:27,240 --> 01:23:30,439
Speaker 1: Then I would restart your phone. That's fine. The other

1737
01:23:30,479 --> 01:23:33,519
Speaker 1: thing I would do on this is go into your Settings.

1738
01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:34,960
Speaker 1: I know this sounds like a lot, but it's stuff

1739
01:23:35,000 --> 01:23:36,040
Speaker 1: I do all the time, and I'll put it in

1740
01:23:36,120 --> 01:23:37,880
Speaker 1: the notes, so it's not a big deal. Then you

1741
01:23:37,920 --> 01:23:40,280
Speaker 1: want to go into your Security and Privacy and then

1742
01:23:40,280 --> 01:23:43,240
Speaker 1: it says updates and there's a Google Play system update.

1743
01:23:43,560 --> 01:23:45,680
Speaker 1: I want you to check for an update there and

1744
01:23:45,760 --> 01:23:47,000
Speaker 1: install that my phone.

1745
01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:49,200
Speaker 2: I just did it. It says your device needs to restart

1746
01:23:49,240 --> 01:23:50,639
Speaker 2: to complete the update. Do that.

1747
01:23:51,520 --> 01:23:54,360
Speaker 1: Then I want you to go into Chrome. Tap the

1748
01:23:55,120 --> 01:23:57,679
Speaker 1: menu bar the three dots in the up right hand corner,

1749
01:23:58,080 --> 01:24:00,960
Speaker 1: and where it says delete browsing data. I would like

1750
01:24:01,040 --> 01:24:04,960
Speaker 1: you to delete probably all of your data and that

1751
01:24:05,000 --> 01:24:08,160
Speaker 1: has done okay. That you've done okay, and that still

1752
01:24:08,160 --> 01:24:10,760
Speaker 1: didn't fix it, No, And did you do that for

1753
01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:12,519
Speaker 1: all time or did you do it for just like

1754
01:24:12,640 --> 01:24:13,439
Speaker 1: fifteen minutes.

1755
01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:17,519
Speaker 10: I've done it many times. All the help servers say

1756
01:24:17,800 --> 01:24:21,080
Speaker 10: to do that, okay, And I want to confirm something

1757
01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:24,759
Speaker 10: with you, yeah, when you I don't have any apps

1758
01:24:24,760 --> 01:24:29,840
Speaker 10: that I go into to you right other than like okay,

1759
01:24:29,920 --> 01:24:32,840
Speaker 10: Chrome and Google. But I'm not signed into anything.

1760
01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:35,760
Speaker 1: Oh you're not signed into even on an Android phone.

1761
01:24:35,760 --> 01:24:39,400
Speaker 1: You didn't sign in? Interesting, okay, Well, so I don't use.

1762
01:24:39,320 --> 01:24:45,800
Speaker 10: Any services, only Chrome, Google, incognito. I used only search,

1763
01:24:46,040 --> 01:24:47,080
Speaker 10: very very basic.

1764
01:24:47,280 --> 01:24:48,639
Speaker 2: And are you when you're okay?

1765
01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:51,280
Speaker 1: The only other thing since you've cleared that activity, It

1766
01:24:51,320 --> 01:24:54,200
Speaker 1: could be that clearing the activity on Chrome could be

1767
01:24:54,240 --> 01:24:56,800
Speaker 1: making these websites take longer to load. That could be

1768
01:24:56,840 --> 01:24:59,640
Speaker 1: the other thing that's happening here, So maybe put the

1769
01:24:59,640 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 1: brakes on that. Try to load these websites one more time.

1770
01:25:02,120 --> 01:25:04,120
Speaker 1: You can always pull down on a website when you're

1771
01:25:04,160 --> 01:25:06,880
Speaker 1: in Chrome to reload the page. So try that and

1772
01:25:06,920 --> 01:25:10,120
Speaker 1: see if things pop up. Eighty eight rich one oh

1773
01:25:10,200 --> 01:25:14,040
Speaker 1: one eighty eight seven four to two four one zero one.

1774
01:25:15,160 --> 01:25:17,680
Speaker 1: Welcome back to rich On Tech. Let's get right to

1775
01:25:18,080 --> 01:25:20,400
Speaker 1: uh Nate in Florida.

1776
01:25:21,320 --> 01:25:21,559
Speaker 5: Nate.

1777
01:25:21,600 --> 01:25:22,559
Speaker 2: You're on with rich.

1778
01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:24,320
Speaker 5: Ty.

1779
01:25:25,080 --> 01:25:29,000
Speaker 12: I want to ask, what do you think of the

1780
01:25:29,120 --> 01:25:31,400
Speaker 12: new Nintendo Switch two?

1781
01:25:32,120 --> 01:25:33,040
Speaker 2: Oh, good question.

1782
01:25:33,800 --> 01:25:36,320
Speaker 1: Uh well, I think it's great, but I mean there

1783
01:25:36,320 --> 01:25:39,080
Speaker 1: are some caveats to that, so it really depends on

1784
01:25:39,320 --> 01:25:43,400
Speaker 1: whether you need to upgrade or not. So so I'll

1785
01:25:43,400 --> 01:25:45,680
Speaker 1: just give you kind of my quick review. But you know,

1786
01:25:45,720 --> 01:25:47,840
Speaker 1: this thing is selling very very well.

1787
01:25:48,960 --> 01:25:49,360
Speaker 2: It was.

1788
01:25:49,800 --> 01:25:52,080
Speaker 1: It's it's available pretty much. I think you can get

1789
01:25:52,080 --> 01:25:55,360
Speaker 1: it at this point, like pretty widely. But it builds

1790
01:25:55,400 --> 01:25:58,920
Speaker 1: on I think what made the original popular, which is portability, flexibility.

1791
01:25:58,960 --> 01:26:00,920
Speaker 1: It's got a lot of games you can already play,

1792
01:26:01,479 --> 01:26:05,639
Speaker 1: including some new ones. The screen is bigger, the unit

1793
01:26:05,800 --> 01:26:10,080
Speaker 1: overall is much bigger, still pretty easy to hold. I

1794
01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:13,120
Speaker 1: think the biggest improvement is really the way the controllers attach.

1795
01:26:13,880 --> 01:26:18,520
Speaker 1: They're now attaching magnetically instead of kind of this slide mechanism,

1796
01:26:18,880 --> 01:26:20,800
Speaker 1: and the old way you can actually slide things in

1797
01:26:20,840 --> 01:26:23,320
Speaker 1: wrong and it was a pain to detach it. Now

1798
01:26:23,360 --> 01:26:26,280
Speaker 1: you can't slide things in wrong. It's much easier, much simpler.

1799
01:26:27,160 --> 01:26:28,680
Speaker 1: The DOC, I think is better. I had a lot

1800
01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:30,840
Speaker 1: of problems with the old DOC. This one seems to

1801
01:26:30,880 --> 01:26:34,640
Speaker 1: be better performing. It also lets you play on your

1802
01:26:34,680 --> 01:26:37,479
Speaker 1: TV and up to four K. The device itself is

1803
01:26:37,479 --> 01:26:40,680
Speaker 1: sort of HD on the go. You can even use

1804
01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:43,120
Speaker 1: the controllers as a mouse if you want so certain

1805
01:26:43,160 --> 01:26:46,200
Speaker 1: games take advantage of that. And then just overall everything

1806
01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:49,600
Speaker 1: has kind of improved. Better graphics, better sound, better haptics,

1807
01:26:49,960 --> 01:26:53,360
Speaker 1: the software is faster. Digital game sharing I think, is

1808
01:26:53,479 --> 01:26:56,000
Speaker 1: much easier at this point, and plus you've got this

1809
01:26:56,080 --> 01:26:58,840
Speaker 1: new game chat feature which lets you voice chat while

1810
01:26:58,840 --> 01:27:02,000
Speaker 1: you're playing. Plus there's even support for cameras.

1811
01:27:02,600 --> 01:27:03,599
Speaker 2: So I think the.

1812
01:27:03,520 --> 01:27:07,000
Speaker 1: Biggest downside that we've identified is the battery life, So

1813
01:27:07,200 --> 01:27:09,200
Speaker 1: depending on how much you play, you might not get

1814
01:27:09,240 --> 01:27:11,280
Speaker 1: as much battery life as you did before.

1815
01:27:12,360 --> 01:27:12,880
Speaker 2: And the price.

1816
01:27:12,960 --> 01:27:15,639
Speaker 1: It's expensive four hundred and fifty dollars or five hundred

1817
01:27:15,640 --> 01:27:18,160
Speaker 1: dollars bundled with the new Mario Kart game. And I

1818
01:27:18,160 --> 01:27:20,120
Speaker 1: think that's the other thing that was a little bit

1819
01:27:20,200 --> 01:27:23,200
Speaker 1: lacking was like a title that like a must have title.

1820
01:27:23,680 --> 01:27:27,960
Speaker 1: Donkey Kong Bonanza has come out, which is it's really fun.

1821
01:27:28,000 --> 01:27:30,520
Speaker 1: I mean I've played it. It's like you're just bashing

1822
01:27:30,880 --> 01:27:33,160
Speaker 1: rocks the whole time. I mean it's like you could

1823
01:27:33,160 --> 01:27:36,439
Speaker 1: play that thing forever. But people are really really enjoying

1824
01:27:36,439 --> 01:27:39,840
Speaker 1: that game. So the bottom line is do you need

1825
01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:42,360
Speaker 1: a new console? Like is your old console doing what

1826
01:27:42,400 --> 01:27:45,720
Speaker 1: you need? If so, then you probably don't need to upgrade.

1827
01:27:45,800 --> 01:27:47,840
Speaker 1: But if you've been thinking about, you know, the way

1828
01:27:47,880 --> 01:27:50,920
Speaker 1: the controllers attach, maybe the screen is a little too

1829
01:27:50,960 --> 01:27:54,280
Speaker 1: small for you, the doc isn't working properly. You want

1830
01:27:54,280 --> 01:27:57,120
Speaker 1: things to be faster, better graphics than I think, or

1831
01:27:57,160 --> 01:27:58,960
Speaker 1: you want that game chat feature. I think that the

1832
01:27:59,400 --> 01:28:02,519
Speaker 1: switch to a really nice upgrade. This is obviously going

1833
01:28:02,560 --> 01:28:05,640
Speaker 1: to be a very very hot product for the holidays.

1834
01:28:06,160 --> 01:28:09,320
Speaker 1: I think it's gotten nothing but good reviews. But again

1835
01:28:09,760 --> 01:28:11,760
Speaker 1: it's one of those things where do you need it

1836
01:28:11,960 --> 01:28:14,200
Speaker 1: do you not need it? The people that need it

1837
01:28:14,320 --> 01:28:16,160
Speaker 1: or want it, they already know that and they've already

1838
01:28:16,160 --> 01:28:18,160
Speaker 1: gotten it. It's the rest of the folks that are

1839
01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:20,599
Speaker 1: sort of like, Okay, wait, what advantage do I get

1840
01:28:20,640 --> 01:28:24,400
Speaker 1: from this? And hopefully those that mini review I just

1841
01:28:24,439 --> 01:28:26,880
Speaker 1: gave you helps you determine that. Thanks for the call,

1842
01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:28,160
Speaker 1: Nate and Florida appreciate it.

1843
01:28:28,200 --> 01:28:28,360
Speaker 6: Well.

1844
01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:29,360
Speaker 2: I did something this week.

1845
01:28:29,479 --> 01:28:33,120
Speaker 1: I visited the Tesla Diner, which opened up while I

1846
01:28:33,200 --> 01:28:35,040
Speaker 1: was in Hawaii, so I had to make my way

1847
01:28:35,040 --> 01:28:36,960
Speaker 1: over there to check it out. It is in Hollywood.

1848
01:28:37,720 --> 01:28:39,519
Speaker 1: This used to be a little bit of trivia for

1849
01:28:39,600 --> 01:28:42,680
Speaker 1: you if you're in the LA area. This used to

1850
01:28:42,720 --> 01:28:45,200
Speaker 1: be a Shaky's Pizza and I used to live in

1851
01:28:45,200 --> 01:28:46,760
Speaker 1: this area, so I knew it pretty well. I mean

1852
01:28:46,800 --> 01:28:49,040
Speaker 1: it's very congested in that area for sure. It's like

1853
01:28:49,280 --> 01:28:52,560
Speaker 1: it's kind of like the right at where West Hollywood

1854
01:28:52,600 --> 01:28:57,200
Speaker 1: starts and Hollywood ends. But this is a futuristic, sort

1855
01:28:57,200 --> 01:29:01,240
Speaker 1: of retro looking diner Open twenty four. You can order

1856
01:29:01,280 --> 01:29:03,559
Speaker 1: food right from your car. So you pull in. There's

1857
01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:07,320
Speaker 1: eighty super charging stations. If you have a Tesla or

1858
01:29:07,360 --> 01:29:09,880
Speaker 1: I believe another EV to charge in there, you can

1859
01:29:09,920 --> 01:29:12,320
Speaker 1: pull into the parking lot. If you don't, you can't

1860
01:29:12,360 --> 01:29:14,759
Speaker 1: park there, So that's one thing to know if you're visiting.

1861
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:17,799
Speaker 1: But it's got eighty supercharging stations, which is the largest

1862
01:29:17,920 --> 01:29:21,439
Speaker 1: urban supercharging station I guess in the US right now.

1863
01:29:21,960 --> 01:29:23,120
Speaker 2: And when you pull in, you.

1864
01:29:23,040 --> 01:29:25,680
Speaker 1: Can charge, and then you can order food right from

1865
01:29:25,680 --> 01:29:27,960
Speaker 1: your dashboard, which I thought was pretty cool.

1866
01:29:28,280 --> 01:29:28,840
Speaker 2: It is neat.

1867
01:29:28,880 --> 01:29:30,759
Speaker 1: It shows you like a little burger on your screen.

1868
01:29:30,800 --> 01:29:33,839
Speaker 1: You tap that, the menu pops up. You've got burgers

1869
01:29:33,880 --> 01:29:36,880
Speaker 1: all the typical diner, food, burgers, fries, tune the melt.

1870
01:29:37,479 --> 01:29:40,960
Speaker 1: I got my souvenir cup which was seven extra dollars

1871
01:29:41,439 --> 01:29:45,520
Speaker 1: and you can feel it's metal and it says Tesla Diner, Hollywood,

1872
01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:50,160
Speaker 1: California on it. It all feels very disney esque, very

1873
01:29:50,240 --> 01:29:52,960
Speaker 1: like amusement parky like. Even the way it looks on

1874
01:29:53,000 --> 01:29:55,840
Speaker 1: this thing, it's like it's retro futuristic. I went during

1875
01:29:55,880 --> 01:29:57,640
Speaker 1: the day, not at night when it's all lit up,

1876
01:29:57,720 --> 01:30:00,519
Speaker 1: so I got to go back at and see what

1877
01:30:00,600 --> 01:30:02,920
Speaker 1: this place looks like. But anyway, they bring the food

1878
01:30:03,000 --> 01:30:05,960
Speaker 1: right out to your car, and it's a person, not

1879
01:30:06,000 --> 01:30:08,200
Speaker 1: a robot that brings it out. But there's also two

1880
01:30:08,280 --> 01:30:10,320
Speaker 1: giant outdoor screen so it's kind of like a little

1881
01:30:10,360 --> 01:30:12,800
Speaker 1: drive in movie theater as well. You can watch the

1882
01:30:12,800 --> 01:30:15,200
Speaker 1: shows on the screen outside or you can watch them

1883
01:30:15,360 --> 01:30:18,280
Speaker 1: on your car screen and the audio is synced to

1884
01:30:18,360 --> 01:30:20,200
Speaker 1: your car screen as well. I did not get to

1885
01:30:20,240 --> 01:30:23,799
Speaker 1: test out that feature, but I did play the movie inside.

1886
01:30:23,880 --> 01:30:26,760
Speaker 1: They were playing like, what was it Twilight Zone while

1887
01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:29,120
Speaker 1: I was there. So the diner is open from six

1888
01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:33,040
Speaker 1: am to midnight for walkins there are you know, there's

1889
01:30:33,040 --> 01:30:35,280
Speaker 1: a way to order food inside. There was a line

1890
01:30:35,360 --> 01:30:39,040
Speaker 1: even at ten thirty am. Inside it's all lively. There's

1891
01:30:39,040 --> 01:30:40,840
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of lookie lose people just want to

1892
01:30:40,840 --> 01:30:42,920
Speaker 1: see what all this is all about. And if you

1893
01:30:42,960 --> 01:30:45,439
Speaker 1: go upstairs, kind of cool like space walk to get

1894
01:30:45,479 --> 01:30:49,080
Speaker 1: upstairs feels very spacey. They call that the skyport and

1895
01:30:49,080 --> 01:30:51,799
Speaker 1: this is like an outside area three hundred and sixty degrees.

1896
01:30:52,080 --> 01:30:54,320
Speaker 1: You can walk around. There's merch up there. People were

1897
01:30:54,320 --> 01:30:57,519
Speaker 1: excited to get merchandise. Apparently there's a robot up there

1898
01:30:57,520 --> 01:30:59,760
Speaker 1: that serves popcorn and the optimist I did not see

1899
01:30:59,800 --> 01:31:03,760
Speaker 1: that again. And then the other thing is if you

1900
01:31:03,840 --> 01:31:05,640
Speaker 1: have a Tesla on you're charging here, you might be

1901
01:31:05,680 --> 01:31:06,920
Speaker 1: wondering what about idling fees?

1902
01:31:06,920 --> 01:31:08,120
Speaker 2: Becau I'm gonna be hanging out here.

1903
01:31:08,400 --> 01:31:11,120
Speaker 1: So they do have like a grace period, unlike other

1904
01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:14,680
Speaker 1: charging stations which might charge you immediately for leaving your

1905
01:31:14,680 --> 01:31:17,439
Speaker 1: car there. This you get like thirty minutes. So best

1906
01:31:17,479 --> 01:31:20,920
Speaker 1: times to visit Weekdays, weekends are going to be super busy.

1907
01:31:21,280 --> 01:31:24,400
Speaker 2: The burger, by the way, I loved it. It was delicious.

1908
01:31:24,400 --> 01:31:27,640
Speaker 1: So anyway, Tesla Diner in Hollywood definitely going to be

1909
01:31:27,640 --> 01:31:30,240
Speaker 1: attraction people visit when they come to La coming up next,

1910
01:31:30,240 --> 01:31:32,599
Speaker 1: we're going to talk about how AI is impacting long

1911
01:31:32,720 --> 01:31:36,400
Speaker 1: term care. Right here, I'm rich on Tech. Welcome back

1912
01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:38,800
Speaker 1: to rich on Tech. Rich DeMuro here hanging out with you,

1913
01:31:38,880 --> 01:31:43,200
Speaker 1: talking technology. The website rich on Tech dot tv. Find

1914
01:31:43,200 --> 01:31:46,080
Speaker 1: me on Instagram at rich on Tech. Before we get

1915
01:31:46,120 --> 01:31:49,679
Speaker 1: to our interview, just a couple of notes here. Number one,

1916
01:31:49,920 --> 01:31:54,200
Speaker 1: smart glasses apparently doing really, really well. Sales of ray

1917
01:31:54,240 --> 01:31:57,280
Speaker 1: Band Meta AI glasses tripled in the first half of

1918
01:31:57,320 --> 01:32:01,719
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five. People are goblin these things up like wild,

1919
01:32:01,880 --> 01:32:04,679
Speaker 1: so they came out the new version, the Oakley Meta

1920
01:32:04,720 --> 01:32:09,240
Speaker 1: AI glasses, which have better video, better speakers, better battery life.

1921
01:32:09,280 --> 01:32:13,720
Speaker 1: Obviously those are more for the extreme sports folks, but yeah,

1922
01:32:13,720 --> 01:32:16,640
Speaker 1: apparently Meta has a hit on their hand there. And

1923
01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:19,559
Speaker 1: then the cash app is getting a new feature called pools,

1924
01:32:20,040 --> 01:32:22,600
Speaker 1: So if you need to collect money for something, you

1925
01:32:22,640 --> 01:32:26,400
Speaker 1: can easily collect a pooled amount of money from friends

1926
01:32:26,400 --> 01:32:30,479
Speaker 1: for group events, gifts, whatever you want, vacations, parties, splitting

1927
01:32:30,520 --> 01:32:33,120
Speaker 1: a bill so you can create the pool on the

1928
01:32:33,160 --> 01:32:35,320
Speaker 1: cash app. And then the best part is they don't

1929
01:32:35,320 --> 01:32:37,519
Speaker 1: have to be signed up. You can just send a link,

1930
01:32:37,560 --> 01:32:39,519
Speaker 1: text a link to friends and they can pay with

1931
01:32:39,600 --> 01:32:42,200
Speaker 1: like Apple Pay or Google Pay, which is really great

1932
01:32:42,200 --> 01:32:44,519
Speaker 1: because you know, collecting money from people is not easy.

1933
01:32:45,040 --> 01:32:47,400
Speaker 1: And then finally, if you have Spectrum, you know how

1934
01:32:47,439 --> 01:32:51,000
Speaker 1: they've been including all those apps like Hulu and HBO

1935
01:32:51,160 --> 01:32:54,920
Speaker 1: Max and all these different things. Well maybe not Hulu,

1936
01:32:54,960 --> 01:32:58,040
Speaker 1: but you know they have a Disney plus HBO Max, Peacock. Well,

1937
01:32:58,080 --> 01:33:01,679
Speaker 1: they give you the version that includes the commercials. Well,

1938
01:33:01,720 --> 01:33:04,760
Speaker 1: now you can upgrade on your own through their website

1939
01:33:05,080 --> 01:33:07,280
Speaker 1: in your settings if you want to pay the difference,

1940
01:33:07,600 --> 01:33:09,519
Speaker 1: you can now pay a couple extra bucks a month

1941
01:33:09,560 --> 01:33:13,600
Speaker 1: to get the commercial free price. So again that's Spectrum's

1942
01:33:13,640 --> 01:33:16,000
Speaker 1: new thing where you can just upgrade to get rid

1943
01:33:16,040 --> 01:33:19,599
Speaker 1: of the ads on your streaming services. All right, we're

1944
01:33:19,640 --> 01:33:23,080
Speaker 1: going to talk about this platform called water Lily.

1945
01:33:23,439 --> 01:33:24,680
Speaker 2: We've got Lily.

1946
01:33:24,560 --> 01:33:27,759
Speaker 1: Via vida Ya Ruschul to join us to talk about

1947
01:33:28,479 --> 01:33:31,800
Speaker 1: how families can plan for long term care and how

1948
01:33:31,840 --> 01:33:36,120
Speaker 1: AI is helping Lily. Apologies for butchering your name. I

1949
01:33:36,120 --> 01:33:39,360
Speaker 1: do appreciate, I do apologize for that. But this is

1950
01:33:39,400 --> 01:33:43,000
Speaker 1: an important topic for folks because long term care is

1951
01:33:43,040 --> 01:33:45,120
Speaker 1: something that seems to sneak up on people, but in

1952
01:33:45,160 --> 01:33:49,760
Speaker 1: reality it's something that could be planned for right absolutely.

1953
01:33:50,680 --> 01:33:52,120
Speaker 11: It's a pleasure to be on this show.

1954
01:33:52,240 --> 01:33:55,360
Speaker 15: And you're right that on average in the US, every

1955
01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:57,800
Speaker 15: single household is going to go through a serious form

1956
01:33:57,800 --> 01:33:59,400
Speaker 15: of long term care events.

1957
01:33:59,720 --> 01:34:00,760
Speaker 11: So have it to dive in.

1958
01:34:01,080 --> 01:34:02,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, what I mean? So you have a personal story

1959
01:34:02,960 --> 01:34:04,800
Speaker 2: with this, You why you created this? Right?

1960
01:34:05,880 --> 01:34:06,280
Speaker 11: I do?

1961
01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:06,960
Speaker 3: So.

1962
01:34:07,120 --> 01:34:10,680
Speaker 15: I founded water Lily a couple of years after we

1963
01:34:10,800 --> 01:34:12,519
Speaker 15: navigated a personal long term care.

1964
01:34:12,400 --> 01:34:13,240
Speaker 11: Event in my family.

1965
01:34:13,320 --> 01:34:15,960
Speaker 15: My aunt, she's a really integral part of our first

1966
01:34:15,960 --> 01:34:18,519
Speaker 15: generation immigrant family. She had to raise me growing up,

1967
01:34:18,560 --> 01:34:21,519
Speaker 15: and she was diagnosed with terminal stage colon cancer, and

1968
01:34:21,560 --> 01:34:24,800
Speaker 15: what came with that post chemotherapy was the fact that

1969
01:34:24,840 --> 01:34:27,280
Speaker 15: she was so frail we had to navigate her daily

1970
01:34:27,720 --> 01:34:29,840
Speaker 15: long term care needs. A lot of us know that

1971
01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:33,080
Speaker 15: as needs that our grandparents have or our aging parents have,

1972
01:34:33,560 --> 01:34:37,560
Speaker 15: such as bathing, dressing, getting in and out of bed, twiddling, incontinence,

1973
01:34:37,680 --> 01:34:38,120
Speaker 15: et cetera.

1974
01:34:38,240 --> 01:34:41,160
Speaker 11: So just daily activities that we do.

1975
01:34:41,280 --> 01:34:44,240
Speaker 15: All the time that we take for granted because we're

1976
01:34:44,400 --> 01:34:46,160
Speaker 15: strong and independent.

1977
01:34:46,760 --> 01:34:49,040
Speaker 1: And so what is long term care exactly?

1978
01:34:49,120 --> 01:34:49,320
Speaker 6: Is this?

1979
01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:51,559
Speaker 1: Is it always in a facility or can you have

1980
01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:53,840
Speaker 1: it at home? Like, explain that aspect of it.

1981
01:34:54,360 --> 01:34:54,599
Speaker 12: Yeah?

1982
01:34:54,640 --> 01:34:55,639
Speaker 11: I love that question.

1983
01:34:56,200 --> 01:34:58,680
Speaker 15: Starting from the basics, which is a lot of folks assume, oh,

1984
01:34:58,720 --> 01:35:02,599
Speaker 15: long term care is a type of facility or type

1985
01:35:02,600 --> 01:35:05,800
Speaker 15: of home care, when in truth, long term care basically

1986
01:35:05,960 --> 01:35:09,320
Speaker 15: is needs that you're going to have as a result

1987
01:35:09,360 --> 01:35:12,080
Speaker 15: of not no longer being able to be independent. Independent

1988
01:35:12,240 --> 01:35:15,720
Speaker 15: usually comes from getting older, becoming more frail. So it's

1989
01:35:15,760 --> 01:35:18,440
Speaker 15: those activities I just mentioned when we think of our grandparents,

1990
01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:21,639
Speaker 15: our parents when they start to struggle with cooking, getting

1991
01:35:21,840 --> 01:35:24,760
Speaker 15: like being able to walk around the home, like really

1992
01:35:24,760 --> 01:35:28,840
Speaker 15: easily getting in and out of on and off chairs

1993
01:35:28,960 --> 01:35:31,160
Speaker 15: or beds, being able to take a shower by themselves,

1994
01:35:31,720 --> 01:35:34,559
Speaker 15: realizing well, I might need some handles or assistants around

1995
01:35:34,600 --> 01:35:34,960
Speaker 15: the home.

1996
01:35:35,439 --> 01:35:38,839
Speaker 11: That is, those are long term care needs. Essentially.

1997
01:35:39,720 --> 01:35:44,320
Speaker 15: The space usually calls them activities of daily living, and

1998
01:35:44,400 --> 01:35:47,080
Speaker 15: when you have those needs, you could get help with them,

1999
01:35:47,160 --> 01:35:50,320
Speaker 15: usually from family members or some professionals that could come

2000
01:35:50,360 --> 01:35:53,040
Speaker 15: to the home to actually physically help you, or if

2001
01:35:53,040 --> 01:35:56,439
Speaker 15: you need more consistent care. That's where folks start to

2002
01:35:56,479 --> 01:35:58,599
Speaker 15: realize it might be more affordable to go into certain

2003
01:35:58,600 --> 01:36:02,200
Speaker 15: types of retirement can unities or facilities.

2004
01:36:01,600 --> 01:36:03,400
Speaker 2: And this stuff. None of this is cheap.

2005
01:36:04,760 --> 01:36:09,200
Speaker 11: None of this is cheap. You're right where at the home?

2006
01:36:09,320 --> 01:36:11,719
Speaker 15: On average, I see the cost is like anywhere between

2007
01:36:11,760 --> 01:36:14,800
Speaker 15: twenty five dollars to thirty dollars an hour for help.

2008
01:36:14,920 --> 01:36:17,840
Speaker 15: And usually when you start to have those needs, like

2009
01:36:18,000 --> 01:36:20,040
Speaker 15: when we go visit our parents when they need help,

2010
01:36:20,080 --> 01:36:23,000
Speaker 15: it's several hours a day at the home, and that

2011
01:36:23,040 --> 01:36:26,360
Speaker 15: could grow into easily between like forty to eighty hours

2012
01:36:26,400 --> 01:36:29,400
Speaker 15: per week and usually that's facility based care and that

2013
01:36:29,760 --> 01:36:33,360
Speaker 15: can go north of ten thousand dollars easily a month.

2014
01:36:33,840 --> 01:36:36,960
Speaker 1: Wow, So what what does your platform do? Like, what

2015
01:36:37,000 --> 01:36:39,400
Speaker 1: does it help do? And how is AI involved in this.

2016
01:36:41,800 --> 01:36:42,920
Speaker 11: Fantastic question?

2017
01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:46,839
Speaker 15: So what we do that has never been done before

2018
01:36:47,040 --> 01:36:51,479
Speaker 15: is we use AI to actually predict when you're going

2019
01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:54,280
Speaker 15: to have long term care needs, your likelihood, how long

2020
01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:56,160
Speaker 15: it's going to be for, and we focus on the

2021
01:36:56,200 --> 01:36:58,880
Speaker 15: needs themselves. We actually focus on like how many hours

2022
01:36:58,880 --> 01:37:00,880
Speaker 15: of help you're going to usually start off with, let's

2023
01:37:00,920 --> 01:37:03,120
Speaker 15: just say if it's around age eighty five, and how

2024
01:37:03,160 --> 01:37:05,479
Speaker 15: that might be for maybe four point three years. We

2025
01:37:05,560 --> 01:37:08,160
Speaker 15: predict this and how on the tail end you might

2026
01:37:08,240 --> 01:37:10,680
Speaker 15: end up with needing help with sixty hours of care

2027
01:37:10,720 --> 01:37:13,120
Speaker 15: per week. From there, we help you build out a

2028
01:37:13,280 --> 01:37:16,599
Speaker 15: sustainable care plan based on your care preferences and then

2029
01:37:16,680 --> 01:37:19,479
Speaker 15: also tell you your preference has an associated cost, so

2030
01:37:19,479 --> 01:37:21,240
Speaker 15: how do we solve for that cost as well in

2031
01:37:21,280 --> 01:37:21,759
Speaker 15: the future.

2032
01:37:22,120 --> 01:37:24,200
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at the website and it's just this

2033
01:37:24,200 --> 01:37:26,920
Speaker 1: this falls under the idea of people like they know

2034
01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:28,880
Speaker 1: this is going to happen, they know they might need this,

2035
01:37:28,960 --> 01:37:30,799
Speaker 1: but they don't want to know the answer in advance

2036
01:37:30,840 --> 01:37:32,360
Speaker 1: because they're like, oh, I'll just have to deal with

2037
01:37:32,400 --> 01:37:34,479
Speaker 1: it when I have to. But that actually makes it

2038
01:37:34,520 --> 01:37:37,640
Speaker 1: more stressful, and it probably is better to know this

2039
01:37:37,760 --> 01:37:41,400
Speaker 1: information up front to help you plan for it. And

2040
01:37:41,560 --> 01:37:43,360
Speaker 1: especially with the use of AI, I mean, it looks

2041
01:37:43,400 --> 01:37:46,120
Speaker 1: really slick where it's telling you exactly how much you

2042
01:37:46,200 --> 01:37:49,200
Speaker 1: might need for whether it's home living or home you know,

2043
01:37:49,360 --> 01:37:53,120
Speaker 1: long term versus a in a facility. That's really interesting

2044
01:37:53,160 --> 01:37:53,519
Speaker 1: as well.

2045
01:37:54,400 --> 01:37:57,920
Speaker 15: Yeah, I you know, I noticed a lot of the

2046
01:37:57,960 --> 01:37:59,880
Speaker 15: tools that are built in a long term care space.

2047
01:38:00,120 --> 01:38:02,360
Speaker 15: Folks that are in this space, like they're either coming

2048
01:38:02,400 --> 01:38:05,280
Speaker 15: from the medical profession or they're coming from insurance, and.

2049
01:38:05,240 --> 01:38:06,439
Speaker 11: Then you build from that lens.

2050
01:38:06,520 --> 01:38:08,760
Speaker 15: And that was like the fundamental issues just families just

2051
01:38:08,840 --> 01:38:11,800
Speaker 15: didn't understand what long term care was. And one of

2052
01:38:11,880 --> 01:38:14,640
Speaker 15: my favorite influences for building out this system so that

2053
01:38:14,720 --> 01:38:19,760
Speaker 15: was consumer friendly, was like beautiful systems like Instagram or

2054
01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:22,880
Speaker 15: Airbnb or whatever else where. I just wanted it feel

2055
01:38:23,160 --> 01:38:28,240
Speaker 15: so intuitive and very and very simple to navigate. So

2056
01:38:28,640 --> 01:38:31,320
Speaker 15: that was of course one of our design inspirations. But

2057
01:38:31,320 --> 01:38:33,960
Speaker 15: more importantly for me, I spoke to hundreds of families

2058
01:38:33,960 --> 01:38:36,000
Speaker 15: and I realized like they just didn't understand what long

2059
01:38:36,040 --> 01:38:39,960
Speaker 15: term care was, and so to make it concrete to

2060
01:38:40,160 --> 01:38:43,479
Speaker 15: them and to have them lean in, I wanted to

2061
01:38:43,520 --> 01:38:45,559
Speaker 15: tell them their own stories. So that's why we use

2062
01:38:45,600 --> 01:38:48,120
Speaker 15: over half a billion data points on families that we've

2063
01:38:48,160 --> 01:38:50,400
Speaker 15: been falling for several decades, and we have a three

2064
01:38:50,400 --> 01:38:54,719
Speaker 15: minute intic survey where we asked social demographic information, medical information,

2065
01:38:54,920 --> 01:38:57,760
Speaker 15: and financial information so we could look at the look

2066
01:38:57,920 --> 01:39:00,760
Speaker 15: like families that already navigated long term care, and we

2067
01:39:00,920 --> 01:39:03,599
Speaker 15: tell someone like you rich, like hey, based on someone

2068
01:39:03,640 --> 01:39:06,599
Speaker 15: that looks like you and your household, this is what

2069
01:39:06,640 --> 01:39:09,719
Speaker 15: your likelihood is, your age, how.

2070
01:39:09,640 --> 01:39:10,759
Speaker 11: Long, et cetera.

2071
01:39:11,920 --> 01:39:14,040
Speaker 2: Is this for someone to do themselves?

2072
01:39:14,160 --> 01:39:14,280
Speaker 6: Like?

2073
01:39:14,320 --> 01:39:15,960
Speaker 1: Do you like I look on the website and it's

2074
01:39:15,960 --> 01:39:18,160
Speaker 1: got like stuff for advisors? Is this something you can

2075
01:39:18,200 --> 01:39:19,680
Speaker 1: go on and do yourself? Or do you have to

2076
01:39:19,720 --> 01:39:21,960
Speaker 1: go through a third party, like explain that aspect of it.

2077
01:39:22,520 --> 01:39:22,760
Speaker 11: Yeah.

2078
01:39:22,800 --> 01:39:27,320
Speaker 15: Absolutely So, there's already hundreds of financial professionals and care

2079
01:39:27,360 --> 01:39:30,280
Speaker 15: professionals that use our platform as a way to guide

2080
01:39:30,280 --> 01:39:32,240
Speaker 15: their clients through what is long term care looks like?

2081
01:39:32,280 --> 01:39:34,639
Speaker 15: What's the cost? How do we solve that cost? However,

2082
01:39:34,720 --> 01:39:37,959
Speaker 15: if you join onto our waitlist right now, I personally

2083
01:39:38,000 --> 01:39:41,080
Speaker 15: love to kind of eat my own cooking, and I

2084
01:39:41,120 --> 01:39:45,160
Speaker 15: am able to talk to consumers myself. So I, on average,

2085
01:39:45,200 --> 01:39:48,599
Speaker 15: one out of every time consumers that say I'm open

2086
01:39:48,640 --> 01:39:51,599
Speaker 15: to getting connected to a professional, I just reach out

2087
01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:54,400
Speaker 15: to them without any incentive or anything else other than

2088
01:39:54,439 --> 01:39:56,519
Speaker 15: just helping them build out that care plan, and the

2089
01:39:56,560 --> 01:39:59,280
Speaker 15: other nine out of ten I actually direct them appropriately

2090
01:39:59,320 --> 01:40:02,759
Speaker 15: to our network of advisors that already use our system

2091
01:40:02,800 --> 01:40:03,880
Speaker 15: and our expert on it.

2092
01:40:04,360 --> 01:40:07,280
Speaker 1: And what's the So the endgame is that you get

2093
01:40:07,320 --> 01:40:09,679
Speaker 1: you know, the person that's using this gets the information

2094
01:40:09,760 --> 01:40:11,879
Speaker 1: about what they might be up against in the future,

2095
01:40:12,640 --> 01:40:15,519
Speaker 1: and then they can get the right Can you refer

2096
01:40:15,600 --> 01:40:18,200
Speaker 1: them to people that actually are the long term care

2097
01:40:18,240 --> 01:40:20,800
Speaker 1: facilities and things that they need or what is that

2098
01:40:20,840 --> 01:40:21,280
Speaker 1: part of this?

2099
01:40:21,960 --> 01:40:23,240
Speaker 11: Yeah, that's a really great question.

2100
01:40:23,280 --> 01:40:26,720
Speaker 15: So we first and foremost focused on education, which is like,

2101
01:40:26,760 --> 01:40:28,720
Speaker 15: what are your needs going to look like? We tell

2102
01:40:28,760 --> 01:40:31,120
Speaker 15: you the associate costs, so we even hyper personalized to

2103
01:40:31,160 --> 01:40:33,679
Speaker 15: your zip code of where you currently live or where

2104
01:40:33,680 --> 01:40:36,679
Speaker 15: you're going to retire, and we map those your needs

2105
01:40:36,720 --> 01:40:40,200
Speaker 15: to that care resource and from there, when we figure

2106
01:40:40,200 --> 01:40:42,920
Speaker 15: out what the cost is, we allow you to input.

2107
01:40:42,640 --> 01:40:43,800
Speaker 11: Things that you don't have to buy.

2108
01:40:43,880 --> 01:40:45,439
Speaker 15: You know, if you want a self fund, if you

2109
01:40:45,479 --> 01:40:47,760
Speaker 15: want to consider insurance, if an insurance agent's trying to

2110
01:40:47,760 --> 01:40:51,400
Speaker 15: sell you insurance, you can actually upload that policy into

2111
01:40:51,439 --> 01:40:54,680
Speaker 15: the system and we actually analyze that policy dynamic to

2112
01:40:54,840 --> 01:40:57,720
Speaker 15: your predicted scenario, so we could actually see is it

2113
01:40:57,760 --> 01:41:00,200
Speaker 15: going to be a better ROI than self funding and

2114
01:41:00,320 --> 01:41:03,639
Speaker 15: just help you make the decision yourself because the logic

2115
01:41:03,720 --> 01:41:04,240
Speaker 15: is so clear.

2116
01:41:04,600 --> 01:41:04,880
Speaker 2: Wow.

2117
01:41:04,960 --> 01:41:09,479
Speaker 1: Okay, So the website is Waterlily dot com and Lily.

2118
01:41:09,640 --> 01:41:12,080
Speaker 1: What's your background? Have you done a startup before like

2119
01:41:12,120 --> 01:41:13,479
Speaker 1: this or is this your first?

2120
01:41:14,720 --> 01:41:17,400
Speaker 15: This is the first one that I founded, But prior

2121
01:41:17,479 --> 01:41:20,200
Speaker 15: to this, I was actually on an aerospace trajectory before

2122
01:41:20,240 --> 01:41:22,479
Speaker 15: I went into the healthcare industry. So from twelve to

2123
01:41:22,520 --> 01:41:25,960
Speaker 15: sixteen was working at NASA. But when I was sixteen,

2124
01:41:25,960 --> 01:41:27,840
Speaker 15: we navigated that long term care event. I went to

2125
01:41:27,880 --> 01:41:30,400
Speaker 15: college early at fourteen for it. So then I pivoted

2126
01:41:30,400 --> 01:41:34,519
Speaker 15: my career into healthcare, developed a background in genetics and AI,

2127
01:41:34,680 --> 01:41:36,880
Speaker 15: and went to Berkeley, and then I led product and

2128
01:41:36,920 --> 01:41:40,640
Speaker 15: engineering at multiple early stage startups in the healthcare industry

2129
01:41:40,880 --> 01:41:43,760
Speaker 15: before founding water Lily, because I thought, you know, being

2130
01:41:43,800 --> 01:41:46,559
Speaker 15: so young, someone's going to solve for this problem. But

2131
01:41:46,640 --> 01:41:49,200
Speaker 15: no one was building anything that was really empathetic, that

2132
01:41:49,280 --> 01:41:52,280
Speaker 15: was almost like a beautiful air ANDBB like experience for

2133
01:41:52,560 --> 01:41:54,240
Speaker 15: such a necessary topic.

2134
01:41:54,400 --> 01:41:58,599
Speaker 1: So yeah, it's really organizing kind of this disinformation into

2135
01:41:58,640 --> 01:42:01,639
Speaker 1: a way that's easily understand animal and of course AI

2136
01:42:01,720 --> 01:42:04,320
Speaker 1: is really helping with a lot of that. Do you

2137
01:42:04,360 --> 01:42:06,599
Speaker 1: just love the fact that you've got AI on your

2138
01:42:06,640 --> 01:42:07,160
Speaker 1: side with this?

2139
01:42:08,840 --> 01:42:12,760
Speaker 15: I don't always build AI into our products, but I

2140
01:42:12,840 --> 01:42:16,200
Speaker 15: love that the AI makes long term care real to

2141
01:42:16,320 --> 01:42:19,320
Speaker 15: people decades in advance, so that they could get ahead

2142
01:42:19,320 --> 01:42:21,280
Speaker 15: of that healthcare inflation, so they can get ahead of

2143
01:42:21,280 --> 01:42:24,600
Speaker 15: that really high cost by planning today. So that's what

2144
01:42:24,800 --> 01:42:27,040
Speaker 15: I love about it is that it gets people to

2145
01:42:27,120 --> 01:42:29,639
Speaker 15: lean in and it's almost like a personality quiz. People

2146
01:42:29,720 --> 01:42:32,439
Speaker 15: want to know it's a much more serious form of

2147
01:42:32,520 --> 01:42:33,360
Speaker 15: just like what kind of.

2148
01:42:33,320 --> 01:42:35,160
Speaker 11: Animal are you? Are you a panda?

2149
01:42:35,240 --> 01:42:39,040
Speaker 15: Are you align or whatever else, And it just makes

2150
01:42:39,080 --> 01:42:42,599
Speaker 15: it much more concrete than using national averages or you know,

2151
01:42:42,640 --> 01:42:44,120
Speaker 15: average of code calculators.

2152
01:42:44,400 --> 01:42:48,360
Speaker 1: All right, once again, the website is Waterlily dot com,

2153
01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:52,599
Speaker 1: Lily Vidora School. Thank you so much for joining me today,

2154
01:42:52,640 --> 01:42:55,120
Speaker 1: appreciate it. Coming up, we are going to open up

2155
01:42:55,240 --> 01:42:59,040
Speaker 1: the feedback and get into what you were emailing me

2156
01:42:59,120 --> 01:43:03,479
Speaker 1: throughout the week is rich on Tech. Welcome back to

2157
01:43:03,600 --> 01:43:09,840
Speaker 1: rich On Tech. Rich DeMuro here, what a show, had

2158
01:43:09,880 --> 01:43:12,559
Speaker 1: so much fun, answered so many questions, and now it's

2159
01:43:12,600 --> 01:43:16,840
Speaker 1: time for the feedbag, which is where read all the

2160
01:43:16,880 --> 01:43:22,840
Speaker 1: emails that you sent me. First off, last week I

2161
01:43:22,920 --> 01:43:26,439
Speaker 1: mentioned that my washer and dryer leaked when I was

2162
01:43:26,479 --> 01:43:29,360
Speaker 1: on vacation, and so what a nightmare. By the way,

2163
01:43:29,439 --> 01:43:31,439
Speaker 1: because you know, ruined our floors. We had to get

2164
01:43:31,520 --> 01:43:34,320
Speaker 1: new washer and dryer turned out. I don't know if

2165
01:43:34,320 --> 01:43:37,040
Speaker 1: I told you this, but the actual connection to the

2166
01:43:37,120 --> 01:43:38,920
Speaker 1: washer and dryer was also messed up, so I had

2167
01:43:38,920 --> 01:43:40,960
Speaker 1: to get that replaced. I mean, it was just like

2168
01:43:41,520 --> 01:43:44,280
Speaker 1: one thing after another. But I did get a whole

2169
01:43:44,280 --> 01:43:47,040
Speaker 1: bunch of emails about what to do for next time.

2170
01:43:47,760 --> 01:43:50,320
Speaker 1: Steve from Scranton writes, and Rich, I heard you talking

2171
01:43:50,320 --> 01:43:52,439
Speaker 1: about the water leak you came home too after vacation.

2172
01:43:52,520 --> 01:43:54,719
Speaker 1: I travel a lot, and I can tell you always, always,

2173
01:43:54,760 --> 01:43:57,479
Speaker 1: always turn off your main water valve before you leave.

2174
01:43:57,880 --> 01:44:00,200
Speaker 1: It's the best way to avoid exactly what happened you

2175
01:44:01,400 --> 01:44:04,840
Speaker 1: too little, too late, I guess at this point. John

2176
01:44:04,880 --> 01:44:08,120
Speaker 1: from Charlotte, North Carolina, listening on WBT says, as a

2177
01:44:08,160 --> 01:44:10,760
Speaker 1: general contractor, I have a simple solution to avoid water

2178
01:44:10,840 --> 01:44:13,639
Speaker 1: wheat leaks while you're out of town. Just turn off

2179
01:44:13,640 --> 01:44:15,720
Speaker 1: your water main valve before you leave. It's not high tech,

2180
01:44:15,760 --> 01:44:16,840
Speaker 1: but it works and it's free.

2181
01:44:17,240 --> 01:44:19,840
Speaker 2: Again. Hm, I wish I would have done that.

2182
01:44:19,920 --> 01:44:24,719
Speaker 1: Carlos from Pomona, listening on KFI says about the caller

2183
01:44:24,760 --> 01:44:27,200
Speaker 1: with a low tech water leak detector, tell her to

2184
01:44:27,200 --> 01:44:29,760
Speaker 1: get a Mini smart speaker. Most of them can pick

2185
01:44:29,800 --> 01:44:32,240
Speaker 1: up audible alarms and send a notification to your phone

2186
01:44:32,240 --> 01:44:34,800
Speaker 1: no matter where you are. The HomePod Mini does this

2187
01:44:34,840 --> 01:44:36,599
Speaker 1: really well, and even lets me know when my wife

2188
01:44:36,640 --> 01:44:40,439
Speaker 1: burns a tortillas while I'm at work. Yeah, I forgot

2189
01:44:40,439 --> 01:44:42,760
Speaker 1: about that feature. The HomePod can listen for any sort

2190
01:44:42,760 --> 01:44:45,200
Speaker 1: of alarm and relay that to your phone. That's pretty smart.

2191
01:44:45,439 --> 01:44:47,920
Speaker 1: Tim writes in, you recently talking about water issues. I've

2192
01:44:47,920 --> 01:44:50,240
Speaker 1: done a lot of research after two of my friends

2193
01:44:50,280 --> 01:44:52,680
Speaker 1: had water leaks while they were on vacation. My conclusion

2194
01:44:52,960 --> 01:44:55,040
Speaker 1: the best solution is low tech. Just turn the water

2195
01:44:55,120 --> 01:44:58,080
Speaker 1: off at the meter before you leave. Oh my gosh.

2196
01:44:58,120 --> 01:45:01,920
Speaker 1: Every single person says the same thing. You pretty much

2197
01:45:02,880 --> 01:45:04,600
Speaker 1: what an easy fix. I was just thinking, like I

2198
01:45:04,680 --> 01:45:06,640
Speaker 1: just keep doing that that motion in my head of

2199
01:45:06,680 --> 01:45:08,719
Speaker 1: my hand, just turning the knob, you know, the knob

2200
01:45:08,840 --> 01:45:12,439
Speaker 1: like off. George writes in, I listened to your recent

2201
01:45:12,520 --> 01:45:14,559
Speaker 1: podcast about the home water leak detectors.

2202
01:45:15,120 --> 01:45:15,880
Speaker 2: I wanted to share.

2203
01:45:15,920 --> 01:45:18,640
Speaker 1: I have eleven leak detectors throughout my home anywhere a

2204
01:45:18,680 --> 01:45:21,320
Speaker 1: leak might happen. If one detects water, the main line

2205
01:45:21,360 --> 01:45:24,639
Speaker 1: shuts off automatically. I use a system from Yo Link.

2206
01:45:24,720 --> 01:45:28,439
Speaker 1: It's been great. Bruce writes in, I love my Flume

2207
01:45:28,840 --> 01:45:31,640
Speaker 1: brand leak detector attaches to my water meter with a

2208
01:45:31,720 --> 01:45:34,439
Speaker 1: rubber band, no plumbing required. It can detect leaks as

2209
01:45:34,439 --> 01:45:38,000
Speaker 1: small as two tablespoons per minute. It connects via Wi

2210
01:45:38,040 --> 01:45:41,360
Speaker 1: Fi and sends alerts to my phone. Yes, I did

2211
01:45:41,479 --> 01:45:44,960
Speaker 1: go home and buy a flood and free sensor from Ring.

2212
01:45:45,479 --> 01:45:47,320
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna put this at the bottom of my

2213
01:45:48,080 --> 01:45:51,200
Speaker 1: washer dryer area and next time. Hopefully there is no

2214
01:45:51,280 --> 01:45:55,400
Speaker 1: next time, but I'll be prepared. Sarah writes in this

2215
01:45:55,439 --> 01:46:00,000
Speaker 1: is from the show before vacation. I really enjoyed Sarah

2216
01:46:00,120 --> 01:46:02,200
Speaker 1: from Las Vegas. I really enjoyed hearing Parker on your

2217
01:46:02,200 --> 01:46:04,960
Speaker 1: show a while back, and today Tanner joined too. What polite,

2218
01:46:05,080 --> 01:46:07,960
Speaker 1: articulate and knowledgeable boys you have. It's pleasure to listen

2219
01:46:07,960 --> 01:46:11,240
Speaker 1: to them. Also, your best line was that's violin stuff.

2220
01:46:11,439 --> 01:46:13,240
Speaker 1: Maybe the boys can find a way to squeeze some

2221
01:46:13,280 --> 01:46:17,680
Speaker 1: of the classics into their tech lives. Rita writes in

2222
01:46:17,720 --> 01:46:19,960
Speaker 1: your boys sound it so polish and confident on the show.

2223
01:46:20,000 --> 01:46:21,640
Speaker 1: You must be proud and enjoy every moment. And I

2224
01:46:21,640 --> 01:46:24,679
Speaker 1: think mom deserves from kudos too. I think mom deserves

2225
01:46:24,720 --> 01:46:28,800
Speaker 1: more kudos than me, for sure. Steve from Durham, North

2226
01:46:28,840 --> 01:46:31,639
Speaker 1: Carolina writes in just saying thanks for taking your kids

2227
01:46:31,680 --> 01:46:33,600
Speaker 1: to work. I have great memories of doing that with

2228
01:46:33,680 --> 01:46:36,719
Speaker 1: my dad. We'd usually do it twice every summer while

2229
01:46:36,720 --> 01:46:39,080
Speaker 1: school was out. He was a repair tech for Xerox

2230
01:46:39,120 --> 01:46:42,719
Speaker 1: back when copy machines filled an entire room. I remember thinking, Wow,

2231
01:46:42,760 --> 01:46:45,559
Speaker 1: my dad can fix this. He's also taught at Xerox

2232
01:46:45,600 --> 01:46:47,920
Speaker 1: Training School, and I even met one of his students later.

2233
01:46:48,640 --> 01:46:50,599
Speaker 1: My job was to run out to the work van,

2234
01:46:50,760 --> 01:46:53,160
Speaker 1: find the right number, find the right part number, and

2235
01:46:53,160 --> 01:46:55,120
Speaker 1: bring it in. I learned a lot about paying attention

2236
01:46:55,200 --> 01:46:57,639
Speaker 1: and how to behave in an office setting. I'm still

2237
01:46:57,680 --> 01:47:00,400
Speaker 1: learning that. We even went on base at one point,

2238
01:47:00,479 --> 01:47:03,400
Speaker 1: just a windowless brick building. Someone escorted us the whole time.

2239
01:47:03,439 --> 01:47:06,960
Speaker 1: Still have no idea what went on. Still have no

2240
01:47:07,040 --> 01:47:10,080
Speaker 1: idea what went on inside We knew better than to ask.

2241
01:47:10,439 --> 01:47:13,680
Speaker 1: Thanks Steve, and Bob writes in OMG. I'm in the

2242
01:47:13,800 --> 01:47:16,360
Speaker 1: kitchen making dinner, listening to yesterday's show, and your kid

2243
01:47:16,439 --> 01:47:17,280
Speaker 1: is totally cool.

2244
01:47:17,360 --> 01:47:19,800
Speaker 2: Sounds like you're a good dad and you raised them well.

2245
01:47:20,360 --> 01:47:20,960
Speaker 2: Thank you, Bob.

2246
01:47:21,040 --> 01:47:23,040
Speaker 1: I'm still raising them, so I can't give you the

2247
01:47:23,160 --> 01:47:25,479
Speaker 1: full you know, I can't tell you how good they

2248
01:47:25,520 --> 01:47:26,840
Speaker 1: turned out until it's done.

2249
01:47:26,920 --> 01:47:29,000
Speaker 2: I guess. Let's see here.

2250
01:47:29,080 --> 01:47:31,479
Speaker 1: Bob from Northern California rites in a week a few

2251
01:47:31,520 --> 01:47:33,320
Speaker 1: weeks ago, you read a letter from someone who backs

2252
01:47:33,360 --> 01:47:35,880
Speaker 1: up scan documents to flash drives. Well that's a good start.

2253
01:47:36,080 --> 01:47:38,200
Speaker 1: I'd argue it's not a real backup unless the copies

2254
01:47:38,240 --> 01:47:40,960
Speaker 1: are stored in different locations. If the drives are kept

2255
01:47:40,960 --> 01:47:43,960
Speaker 1: in the same place as the originals, one disaster could

2256
01:47:43,960 --> 01:47:49,160
Speaker 1: wipe out everything. Absolutely, always have things redundancy for sure.

2257
01:47:50,560 --> 01:47:54,240
Speaker 1: Karen from Cazadero, California, rights in. Just as I was

2258
01:47:54,240 --> 01:47:58,400
Speaker 1: trying to unplug a Tibetan retreat center with limited Wi Fi,

2259
01:47:58,640 --> 01:48:02,080
Speaker 1: sounds like you, Bobo got hit with a major fraud issue.

2260
01:48:02,240 --> 01:48:04,759
Speaker 1: I got a legit looking at and t text asking

2261
01:48:04,800 --> 01:48:06,599
Speaker 1: me to verify my backup number.

2262
01:48:06,680 --> 01:48:08,880
Speaker 2: A change to my backup number, so I enter the code.

2263
01:48:09,280 --> 01:48:11,400
Speaker 1: Soon after, I got an email from Hilton saying my

2264
01:48:11,479 --> 01:48:14,439
Speaker 1: password had been updated. Turns out they linked my Hilton

2265
01:48:14,439 --> 01:48:17,880
Speaker 1: to my Amazon and drained over a million points one million,

2266
01:48:17,960 --> 01:48:20,960
Speaker 1: ninety three, six hundred ninety six to be exact, across

2267
01:48:21,000 --> 01:48:25,240
Speaker 1: four transactions. Another two hundred thousand points were transferred elsewhere.

2268
01:48:25,600 --> 01:48:28,599
Speaker 1: Hilton opened two fraud cases, but it's just a big mess.

2269
01:48:28,760 --> 01:48:30,559
Speaker 1: Heads up to your listeners, if you have a high

2270
01:48:30,560 --> 01:48:34,400
Speaker 1: points balance on your travel or rewards accounts, stay vigilant.

2271
01:48:34,400 --> 01:48:38,000
Speaker 1: Hackers are targeting more than just your bank accounts, and yes, Karen,

2272
01:48:38,040 --> 01:48:39,920
Speaker 1: you even did the right thing and had two factor.

2273
01:48:40,320 --> 01:48:43,840
Speaker 1: You just got tricked into sharing that code. And let's

2274
01:48:43,840 --> 01:48:49,760
Speaker 1: see one more here, Oh, Mike. Mike writes in I'm

2275
01:48:49,760 --> 01:48:52,120
Speaker 1: not a fan of selfies, but I do enjoy photography.

2276
01:48:52,520 --> 01:48:55,000
Speaker 1: I'd suggest putting your phone camera on wide angle and

2277
01:48:55,040 --> 01:48:56,040
Speaker 1: turning on the flash.

2278
01:48:56,080 --> 01:48:56,200
Speaker 2: Oh.

2279
01:48:56,240 --> 01:48:59,439
Speaker 1: This is the sunset selfie tip from Kawhi. The subject

2280
01:48:59,439 --> 01:49:01,479
Speaker 1: will be lit, the sunset should still show up in

2281
01:49:01,479 --> 01:49:04,280
Speaker 1: the background. I've used this technique successfully with my DSLR.

2282
01:49:04,600 --> 01:49:06,960
Speaker 1: I'm heading to Kawhi in August and we'll try a

2283
01:49:07,000 --> 01:49:09,559
Speaker 1: sunset selfie on my phone and report back. I love

2284
01:49:09,600 --> 01:49:13,679
Speaker 1: the show. I'm a faithful listener, all right. I think

2285
01:49:13,760 --> 01:49:17,120
Speaker 1: that's what we're going to do for today. Let's see

2286
01:49:17,120 --> 01:49:19,240
Speaker 1: one more. John from Carlsbat says Rich, thanks for your

2287
01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:21,599
Speaker 1: great tips. I enjoy the podcast while riding my mountain

2288
01:49:21,600 --> 01:49:23,719
Speaker 1: bike or walking the dog. Needless to say, I forget

2289
01:49:23,720 --> 01:49:26,280
Speaker 1: some of your recommendations. How can I get a printable transcript?

2290
01:49:26,680 --> 01:49:27,280
Speaker 2: I get your.

2291
01:49:27,120 --> 01:49:30,120
Speaker 1: Newsletter, but it would would be willing to subscribe if

2292
01:49:30,160 --> 01:49:32,599
Speaker 1: it included a transcript option. Thanks for tweaking my eighty

2293
01:49:32,640 --> 01:49:35,479
Speaker 1: year old brain. Rich on tech dot TV you can

2294
01:49:35,520 --> 01:49:37,840
Speaker 1: get the links to the show note there. Find me

2295
01:49:37,880 --> 01:49:40,000
Speaker 1: on social media at rich on Tech. Next week you've

2296
01:49:40,040 --> 01:49:42,360
Speaker 1: got Adam Daud. He's going to talk about consumer tech

2297
01:49:42,560 --> 01:49:45,680
Speaker 1: and US Mobile CEO Ahmed Kattak he's going to talk

2298
01:49:45,720 --> 01:49:48,280
Speaker 1: about US Mobile. There are so many ways to spend

2299
01:49:48,320 --> 01:49:49,680
