WEBVTT - We Retook Our Year 12 Exams 🎒 📓 (For Funsies 🤪) 0:00:00.800 --> 0:00:04.440 Flex and Frooms, Flex and Frooms. This is the Flex 0:00:04.480 --> 0:00:08.639 and Frooms catch up podcast, Happy Monday Freaks. Today we 0:00:08.760 --> 0:00:11.640 chat about high school maths. Don't worry, it's not totally triggering. 0:00:11.680 --> 0:00:15.040 It turns out we healed some inner child stuff and 0:00:15.040 --> 0:00:17.120 realize we actually can do maths in real time. 0:00:17.160 --> 0:00:20.160 We've also talked about this new concept called light gassing. 0:00:20.200 --> 0:00:23.120 It's kind of like the opposite or like sister cousin 0:00:23.480 --> 0:00:26.640 of gas lighting. I would put money on it, and 0:00:26.640 --> 0:00:30.240 we don't gamble here from my frequent casino, but I 0:00:30.360 --> 0:00:32.159 put money on it that you have done this in 0:00:32.200 --> 0:00:32.880 the last week. 0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:36.720 Well, Keeter, Flex and Froomes, Flex and Firms. 0:00:37.040 --> 0:00:39.360 We all know what the term gas lighting means, right, 0:00:39.400 --> 0:00:42.839 and if you don't, It's when someone uses psychological methods 0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:46.160 into making you question your own sanity or your powers 0:00:46.200 --> 0:00:46.560 of reasoning. 0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:47.800 It's not the same as lying. 0:00:48.080 --> 0:00:52.320 It's when someone is creating narrative and side stories and 0:00:52.360 --> 0:00:54.760 cameos and characters to make you really believe that the 0:00:54.760 --> 0:00:57.840 thing that you've experienced is not true. And what that 0:00:57.880 --> 0:01:01.040 does is it erodes at your ability to trust yourself, 0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:03.440 and then you end up abandoning yourself in favor of 0:01:03.480 --> 0:01:06.600 this person who has a dominant narrative in your life. Well, 0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:10.360 this TikTok creator Ted not Lasso, put me onto this 0:01:10.560 --> 0:01:13.720 Twitter creator called Spencer Greenberg who's come up with a 0:01:13.760 --> 0:01:18.200 similar concept. But it's called light gassing. And initially, because 0:01:18.200 --> 0:01:21.039 we know gassing is like a colloquial term which means 0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:23.680 to kind of like support someone, to big the marp, 0:01:23.720 --> 0:01:26.400 to ge the mark, to make them feel validated and empowered. 0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.280 To what is the light version of that? 0:01:29.040 --> 0:01:32.200 So light gassing, according to Spencer, is when a person 0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:37.240 agrees with or validates another person's false beliefs and misconceptions 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:41.240 in order to be supportive. Unlike gas lighting, which can 0:01:41.280 --> 0:01:44.600 be a tactic of jerks and abuses, light gassing is 0:01:44.640 --> 0:01:49.200 an unintentionally harmful tactic of friends and supporters. Wow, and 0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:53.760 the way that I just this one changed everything for 0:01:53.840 --> 0:01:56.320 me because you know, we talk a lot about friendship 0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:58.920 and the roles and responsibilities we have as friends to 0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:02.400 each other and to other people, and what often comes up, 0:02:02.680 --> 0:02:04.240 you know, let's say free and now I are discussing 0:02:04.280 --> 0:02:06.480 another friend that we have is trying to figure out 0:02:06.480 --> 0:02:09.040 what's the appropriate level of support or what's the appropriate 0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:12.919 level of intervention, what's the appropriate level of reprimand for 0:02:13.000 --> 0:02:15.239 a thing that they're doing, because we recognize it's not 0:02:15.280 --> 0:02:18.520 our lives and we might not want that outcome, and 0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:21.120 so we might do it differently. And you know, we 0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:23.680 don't want to replicate high school and we're ostracizing people 0:02:23.680 --> 0:02:25.320 because they don't want to live the way that we live. 0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:28.320 And we can also recognize that a big corner zone 0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:31.359 of friendship is being able to put your own things aside, 0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:34.079 to create a safe space for your people to come 0:02:34.120 --> 0:02:35.840 to you with whatever they need and not feel as 0:02:35.919 --> 0:02:37.840 though you're going to turn it on them or reject 0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.760 them or make them feel silly or dumb or embarrassed. 0:02:41.080 --> 0:02:43.639 But what is the line? Because unfortunately, I think it's 0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:44.400 quite fine. 0:02:44.760 --> 0:02:47.800 It's definitely very fun. Initially when you said this, I 0:02:47.840 --> 0:02:51.760 thought instantly of like when someone is texting a romantic 0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:55.440 interest and it's like quite obvious that the person's not interested, 0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:58.480 but you're saying, oh, you know, like they could be busy, 0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:02.240 or like maybe they're just like x Y sad, which 0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:04.560 we're all guilty of because it's like, do I want 0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:06.920 to let you down? Because I actually also don't know 0:03:07.040 --> 0:03:09.839 for sure, but we see the signs, and then it's 0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:12.680 only till a few months later that you can say yeah, yeah, yeah, 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:13.280 like there. 0:03:13.200 --> 0:03:15.280 Was a little something there. Yeah, But then what if 0:03:15.280 --> 0:03:15.680 there's not? 0:03:15.880 --> 0:03:18.320 You know, like what if? Because I don't know if 0:03:18.440 --> 0:03:21.079 we as people are self aware enough to know when 0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:24.800 our baggage is clouding our ability to make good judgment 0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:26.800 on behalf of our friends. Do you know what I'm saying? 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:29.520 Like we are all going through our own things that 0:03:29.560 --> 0:03:32.040 if you catch someone at the wrong time, everything they 0:03:32.040 --> 0:03:35.400 say to you could be positively good or negatively gired 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:38.960 or judgmentally gird because they're just going through their own stuff. 0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:42.720 And so, you know, I guess the question that was 0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:45.480 posed at the end of this thread was what is worse? 0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:48.760 You know, like we we are doing this thing in 0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:53.480 society now where we are viewing most people as gas 0:03:53.600 --> 0:03:55.280 lighters where we look around and we feel like, oh, 0:03:55.320 --> 0:03:58.880 everybody's made me feel like what I'm experiencing is false 0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:02.480 in the worst way possible. But what about all the 0:04:02.520 --> 0:04:04.600 people who have made you feel like your experience is 0:04:04.720 --> 0:04:08.160 real when it's not. And I don't know what the 0:04:08.200 --> 0:04:10.920 answer is, but I think it's a good term to 0:04:11.240 --> 0:04:12.040 have under the belt. 0:04:12.520 --> 0:04:14.640 Always I do, okay, you know, I always get a 0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:18.240 bit like funny enough terms, not the TikTok terms. But 0:04:18.640 --> 0:04:20.240 you know, we see it like a lot, a lot 0:04:20.279 --> 0:04:22.839 in the German language, like showed him for it or whatever, 0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:24.480 like they kind ate with that, So. 0:04:26.880 --> 0:04:29.720 We see a lot in the German languages. 0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:36.640 Wedding culture. Has it gone too far? I feel like 0:04:36.720 --> 0:04:40.640 weddings got really lavish in the eighties for some reason 0:04:40.800 --> 0:04:43.920 I don't recall. I feel, you know me Princess Diana vibes. 0:04:43.920 --> 0:04:46.479 Perhaps she heralded in this very. 0:04:46.680 --> 0:04:49.919 As a woman of the monarchy. It is what it is. 0:04:50.279 --> 0:04:52.760 It is what it is, the poofy dresses, the long 0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:56.080 trains and whatnot. But in twenty twenty three, I believe 0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:58.080 everyone is taking it one step further. We've got the 0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:03.560 professional view, We've got the satine robes with a little 0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:07.160 miss on the back. The opportunities to spend money on 0:05:07.200 --> 0:05:09.960 weddings is are endless. And what I find most interesting 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:14.840 is the social dynamics around bachelorette parties, Because why are 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:18.160 people telling me that they're spending thousands of dollars pre 0:05:18.279 --> 0:05:21.960 wedding and their time and their money on bachelorette parties. 0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:27.480 Apparently there's potentially a cultural reason, a sociocultural economic race then, 0:05:28.040 --> 0:05:29.719 and it's to do with loneliness. So we have a 0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:33.800 grab from the TikTok Celebrity Memoir book Club podcast and 0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:34.840 Mickey please play it. 0:05:35.560 --> 0:05:38.039 I was just reading an article about how bachelorette party 0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:40.880 culture has gotten out of control. I think that the 0:05:40.960 --> 0:05:44.919 explosion of bachelorette party and wedding culture and the loneliness epidemic, 0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:46.880 which is not just a male loneliness epidemic, there is 0:05:46.920 --> 0:05:51.000 like a big friendship problem right now, are directly linked. 0:05:51.400 --> 0:05:53.760 Maybe it would make sense that people are putting so 0:05:53.880 --> 0:05:57.560 much effort into creating these big bachelorette parties and feeling 0:05:57.640 --> 0:05:59.520 like they need to show that they've got heaps of 0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:03.840 friends stuff like that because of the loneliness epidemic. Like also, 0:06:03.880 --> 0:06:05.919 I was talking to someone and they were like, oh, like, 0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.200 what happens if you're let's say you're in the same 0:06:08.640 --> 0:06:11.920 ahead a relationship And it's like, what if a guy 0:06:12.040 --> 0:06:15.440 has a whole friendship group and wants like six whatever 0:06:15.480 --> 0:06:19.320 they're called groomsmen groomsmen, but then you've only got one bride'smaid, Like, 0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:21.800 are we who's culling, who's adding. 0:06:22.160 --> 0:06:22.920 One hundred percent. 0:06:23.839 --> 0:06:26.640 I think a lot of the way that life is 0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:31.280 now is very symptomatic of a problem that people won't address. So, 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:37.039 you know, when we talk about excess culture, convenience culture, 0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:43.920 performative authenticity, not feeling safe to express your self, cancel culture, 0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:47.080 it all comes back to this fundamental issue that people 0:06:47.320 --> 0:06:49.960 don't feel like they have anyone to rely on. 0:06:50.040 --> 0:06:50.880 They feel lonely. 0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:55.160 And so we can cultivate or synthesize these environments and 0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:58.800 give us an outlet to have connection by any means necessary. 0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:01.200 So if I got a cant it's all a celebrity 0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:03.880 on the internet. To feel close to ten thousand people 0:07:03.880 --> 0:07:06.080 in this moment, it's a worthy trade off. 0:07:06.279 --> 0:07:06.599 True. 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:08.560 You know, if I get this one moment on my 0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:10.960 birthday to feel like everything's about me and you don't 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:12.920 reshare me on your story. 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:15.640 Cut, why would you not do that? 0:07:16.120 --> 0:07:18.240 And I feel as though and it goes it's even 0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.200 you know, all these conversations we're having online about red 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:24.720 flags and dating and ix if they're all symptoms of 0:07:24.760 --> 0:07:27.280 a greater issue. And I think that in order to 0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:32.160 address the issue, it requires too much extracurricular time. You 0:07:32.160 --> 0:07:35.280 know and too much self responsibility. And so when you 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:38.840 find these outlets that cost you in other ways. They 0:07:39.200 --> 0:07:42.200 cost you emotionally, they cost you financially, they cost you 0:07:42.280 --> 0:07:46.720 physically for a little hit, for a little moment of closeness, 0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:48.160 for a lot of people, it's worth it. 0:07:49.200 --> 0:07:50.280 I never thought of it that way. 0:07:50.520 --> 0:07:54.120 Yeah, it's quite sad, But I also feel like if 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:57.000 we were living in different communities where we all felt 0:07:57.000 --> 0:08:00.320 really responsible for one another. Like we spoke about a 0:08:00.320 --> 0:08:02.280 couple of weeks ago, how in Amish communities, when you 0:08:02.320 --> 0:08:04.640 get married, the whole community builds your house on the 0:08:04.720 --> 0:08:07.240 day of your marriage. So they've got twenty four hours 0:08:07.280 --> 0:08:08.520 to build you a house, and they're not going to 0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:10.680 paint it or put in furniture, but they build you 0:08:10.760 --> 0:08:12.560 the structure and they move it to wherever you need 0:08:12.600 --> 0:08:14.640 so you know that you truly have the support of 0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:17.360 your community in a physical, tangible way, and they're like 0:08:17.520 --> 0:08:20.440 letting you go. You're still in the same suburb, but 0:08:20.440 --> 0:08:23.240 they're letting you go knowing that we helped you do 0:08:23.360 --> 0:08:25.680 the thing you needed to do. And I think the 0:08:25.760 --> 0:08:30.000 byproduct of this hyperindividualist thing we have going on is 0:08:30.000 --> 0:08:32.600 that people feel as though they're solely responsible for the 0:08:32.760 --> 0:08:36.079 issue and therefore solely responsible for the solution, and to 0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:39.360 seek any additional help would be to put extra shame 0:08:39.400 --> 0:08:42.320 onto themselves and say, well I did this. You know. 0:08:42.400 --> 0:08:44.599 So if you know, you're someone who can be a 0:08:44.640 --> 0:08:47.800 little bit depressiana no depression of anxiety, and that causes 0:08:47.840 --> 0:08:50.640 you to isolate from your friends, and five years later 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:53.200 you feel as though you don't have really strong friendships groups, 0:08:53.559 --> 0:08:56.240 friendship groups. It takes a lot of It takes a 0:08:56.320 --> 0:08:58.840 lot of gumption to be like it was my fault 0:08:59.000 --> 0:09:00.800 but also was the victim. 0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:03.959 Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's hard like to be both. 0:09:04.200 --> 0:09:06.440 Yeah, it's a lot. 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:09.080 But you know, if you're doing a little bachelorette party 0:09:09.280 --> 0:09:10.720 or any kind of wedding, because a lot of my 0:09:10.720 --> 0:09:12.840 friends are getting married right now, and I you know, 0:09:13.080 --> 0:09:15.320 we've talked about telling a line between being a supportive 0:09:15.360 --> 0:09:18.920 friend by any means necessary and also throwing in your 0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:21.600 values and letting them know how you really feel. And 0:09:21.679 --> 0:09:24.600 I'm struggling because I'm seeing how much they're reaching for 0:09:25.600 --> 0:09:28.120 a marriage ideal that doesn't even align with them on 0:09:28.160 --> 0:09:28.760 the surface. 0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:30.520 Well, they're going deep. 0:09:30.600 --> 0:09:31.320 They're going deep. 0:09:31.360 --> 0:09:33.280 They're trying to invite all these people so they look 0:09:33.320 --> 0:09:35.240 like they have a lot of friends, or they're trying to, 0:09:36.160 --> 0:09:38.320 you know, not get the dress they really want because 0:09:38.640 --> 0:09:41.640 they don't want to seem like they're begging for the spotlight, 0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:43.560 and they want to come across as casual on this 0:09:43.600 --> 0:09:46.400 big day. It's been one hundred k. It's ridiculous, God, 0:09:46.400 --> 0:09:48.160 but it is a byproduct of living. And we're not 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:52.520 judging you. We're just using your experience as a talking point. 0:09:54.320 --> 0:09:56.600 Tech Time, tech Time, tech Time. 0:09:56.880 --> 0:10:00.560 It's tech time with flexi frooms on cater We're about 0:10:00.600 --> 0:10:01.040 to get it. 0:10:01.080 --> 0:10:03.200 I regret to inform you the horrors are nalyst and 0:10:03.200 --> 0:10:05.200 if you were scared about AI last week when I 0:10:05.240 --> 0:10:09.240 told you, I spoke to an AI influencer and we 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:13.120 had a conversation that even me, a person who knows 0:10:13.160 --> 0:10:15.559 that it was fake, felt convinced by the end of 0:10:15.559 --> 0:10:18.400 a five minute conversation, I regret to inform you that 0:10:18.440 --> 0:10:20.600 it's going to be harder and harder and harder to 0:10:20.600 --> 0:10:23.600 discern between what is real and what is fake. You 0:10:23.679 --> 0:10:25.959 thought it was hard because your parents couldn't tell that 0:10:26.000 --> 0:10:28.480 they were getting scammed at their OZ post text message. 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:31.600 Wait until you scroll Instagram and you see a picture 0:10:31.600 --> 0:10:34.480 of a celebrity like Kendall Jenna and you go onto 0:10:34.640 --> 0:10:36.480 the profile and it looks just like her because there 0:10:36.480 --> 0:10:38.880 are selfies there and you can see her with other 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:42.520 friends and she's out for dinner. But then the profile 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:45.640 name says You're sis Billy and it has millions of followers, 0:10:46.000 --> 0:10:48.360 and you're thinking, would Kendall Jenna not just shut this down? 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:51.480 Like somebody is impersonating her, someone is pretending to be her, 0:10:51.920 --> 0:10:54.120 racking up all these followers, and she's not gonna do 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:57.800 anything about it. Well, turns out, Miss Kendall Jenna sold 0:10:57.840 --> 0:11:02.000 her likeness, her face, her voice, and her name to 0:11:02.440 --> 0:11:06.680 Facebook aka Meta so they can use her face to 0:11:06.760 --> 0:11:11.199 create an AI friend and AI chatbot that you can 0:11:11.240 --> 0:11:14.599 ask Facebook and Meta related questions to. Because that is 0:11:14.640 --> 0:11:17.000 the world that we're living in. So a year ago 0:11:17.080 --> 0:11:19.319 when chat gpt comes to be and we think, what 0:11:19.440 --> 0:11:22.000 use is this? What even is AI? Like? We don't 0:11:22.000 --> 0:11:24.719 need to talk to robots to answer questions whether or 0:11:24.720 --> 0:11:28.720 not you feel ready for that evolution or change. Accelerationism 0:11:28.840 --> 0:11:31.760 is real and things are happening at such a rapid 0:11:31.800 --> 0:11:34.280 pace that if you don't keep yourself informed, you end 0:11:34.360 --> 0:11:38.880 up confused, misaligned, and let astray. So when I'm googling, 0:11:39.280 --> 0:11:41.520 what is going on? And who else has metapaid to 0:11:41.559 --> 0:11:45.560 do this? Because it can't just be Kendall, It's Tom Brady, Okay, 0:11:45.679 --> 0:11:46.640 it's Brody Jenner. 0:11:46.679 --> 0:11:49.400 Who's the other the Jenda that didn't really get the clout. 0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:51.000 They got a little bit of a tooth one deal. Yeah, 0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:55.680 sure they surely did. And so the whole ethos of 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.240 what Meta is trying to do, And to be clear, 0:11:58.440 --> 0:12:02.119 Meta is Facebook, instat Graham, It's WhatsApp, It's a predominant 0:12:02.120 --> 0:12:06.200 amount of social media and a messaging platforms they're using. 0:12:06.440 --> 0:12:09.480 Or they've launched this personal assistant which is available for 0:12:09.520 --> 0:12:12.760 all their users to engage in conversations, pose inquiries, and 0:12:12.760 --> 0:12:13.880 seek assistance. 0:12:13.440 --> 0:12:15.520 For a wide variety of needs. Why are you helping 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:18.840 us in that way? Just make the algorithm pretty. In 0:12:18.840 --> 0:12:22.439 addition to this, Meta also introduced a generative AI experience, 0:12:22.480 --> 0:12:26.559 empowering users to create inventive photos with metas AI powered 0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:30.520 image editing tool and explore the fun of personalized AI stickers. 0:12:30.520 --> 0:12:32.880 So when I go on this fake Kendall Jenner's page 0:12:32.920 --> 0:12:35.120 and I see that she's out to dinner and I 0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:36.679 see that she's, you know, shopping. 0:12:36.720 --> 0:12:39.120 Those are fake pictures. Those pictures aren't real. 0:12:39.320 --> 0:12:42.800 I'm scared of this. Let's call your friend Billy, your cis, Billy, 0:12:43.360 --> 0:12:44.080 not the cis. 0:12:44.160 --> 0:12:45.560 Yeah, they're not what they were doing. 0:12:45.800 --> 0:12:48.679 Charlie Emilio's on it, the most followed TikToker in the 0:12:48.679 --> 0:12:50.559 world Snoop Dogg is on it. 0:12:50.559 --> 0:12:51.520 It's just in. 0:12:51.400 --> 0:12:54.079 In addition to that, they've launched these AI characters who 0:12:54.120 --> 0:12:56.640 are animals and robots and all these other things. And 0:12:56.679 --> 0:13:00.360 I guess to present to you this new found, potentially 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:03.079 scary thing in a way that feels comfortable and safe 0:13:03.120 --> 0:13:05.440 because a lot of us do look to celebrities and 0:13:05.480 --> 0:13:08.000 we think, oh, they're just like us. I recognize Kendall, 0:13:08.080 --> 0:13:09.880 I know her from a show, I know her sisters. 0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:13.440 I feel comfortable that this information is coming to me 0:13:13.720 --> 0:13:14.280 through her. 0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:15.640 This is so weird. 0:13:16.000 --> 0:13:18.560 These are things and topics that we thought were so 0:13:18.720 --> 0:13:21.080 far in the future that wouldn't affect us. And so 0:13:21.160 --> 0:13:24.959 don't be surprised if there was any time to understand contracts, 0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:27.440 to understand terms and conditions, to really recognize what you 0:13:27.440 --> 0:13:29.480 were opting in and opting out. Of now it'd be 0:13:29.480 --> 0:13:31.600 in and if you don't really care about privacy, that's 0:13:31.640 --> 0:13:33.880 also cool as well. The one thing I would advise 0:13:33.920 --> 0:13:35.920 is don't get left behind. Is things are changing because 0:13:35.920 --> 0:13:38.480 we did. We've had ten fifteen years to get used 0:13:38.520 --> 0:13:40.680 to the iPhone, and some of you people are still confused. 0:13:40.840 --> 0:13:41.719 Oh yeah, you know. 0:13:41.800 --> 0:13:44.080 Me realizing you can like press down and create a sticker. 0:13:45.320 --> 0:13:47.440 Yeah, that's a new update that's within the last year. 0:13:47.440 --> 0:13:50.600 So that's okay. But you know, people are still confused 0:13:50.600 --> 0:13:53.040 on how to use an iPhone. What smartphone technology is, 0:13:53.240 --> 0:13:55.680 how you can really leverage it to make your life easier. 0:13:55.760 --> 0:13:58.360 And now we're post We're almost post smartphone. 0:13:58.720 --> 0:14:00.840 Damn, hook it up to my brain. I say, I'm 0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:01.240 ready for that. 0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:03.280 And if you also thought, you know, I've gotten dumber 0:14:03.280 --> 0:14:05.480 since getting an iPhone because I don't know how to 0:14:05.920 --> 0:14:09.080 do basic math without a calculator, or I don't I 0:14:09.120 --> 0:14:12.360 don't commit directions to memory because I'll just use GPS. 0:14:12.440 --> 0:14:15.240 Imagine where you can have an AI generative chatbot who 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:17.600 can think for you. Bring it, babes, you were going 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:19.800 to be a vegetable, not derogatory. 0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:23.920 Very recently, the year twelves went and did their final 0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:27.360 exams the HSC, if you will. One of the subjects 0:14:27.440 --> 0:14:30.080 was maths, and allegedly some of the questions were very, 0:14:30.160 --> 0:14:34.160 very difficult, and they involved some tricky wording to trick 0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:35.720 up the students, to trip. 0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:37.120 Them up, which is unnecessary. 0:14:37.600 --> 0:14:40.680 They've been through enough. As far as I'm concerned, I 0:14:40.720 --> 0:14:43.760 personally quit Maths in a hurry in year ten. I 0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:45.840 didn't even do the final little test because I found 0:14:45.840 --> 0:14:49.200 it that disturbing and upsetting. Did you finish maths? FLEXI? 0:14:49.240 --> 0:14:51.080 I'm pretty sure I dropped out in year ten as well. 0:14:51.160 --> 0:14:54.000 Yeah, bit of us. Well, I have some of the 0:14:54.200 --> 0:14:56.840 questions in the test, and I want to see if 0:14:56.880 --> 0:15:00.880 we can answer them. Growing off, an amount of two thousand, 0:15:00.960 --> 0:15:03.600 five hundred is invested in a simple interest rate of 0:15:03.600 --> 0:15:06.680 three percent per annum. How much interest is earned in 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:10.680 the first two years A seventy five dollars B one 0:15:10.880 --> 0:15:16.480 fifty C two five seven five or two six five two. Okay, 0:15:16.880 --> 0:15:19.000 let me just try it. Oh okay, great, bro I 0:15:19.000 --> 0:15:20.600 could not do maths if I tried. 0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:21.040 Okay. 0:15:21.120 --> 0:15:24.040 So the way that I'm answering this is, an amount 0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:25.960 of twenty five hundred dollars is invested at a simple 0:15:26.000 --> 0:15:29.200 interest rate of three percent per atom. So three percent 0:15:29.240 --> 0:15:31.720 per anim is three percent per year. What's one percent 0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:35.920 of twenty five hundred dollars twenty five dollars two times 0:15:35.920 --> 0:15:37.360 three seventy five dollars. 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:42.560 And then for two years, it's then one hundred and 0:15:42.560 --> 0:15:44.240 fifty correct. 0:15:44.320 --> 0:15:46.400 Come on, teamwork. Okay, okay, so it's wrong, but now 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:49.440 I tried number two. A delivery truck was valued at 0:15:49.480 --> 0:15:52.800 sixty five thousand dollars when new, the value of the 0:15:52.840 --> 0:15:56.440 truck depreciates at a rate of twenty two cents per 0:15:56.560 --> 0:16:00.920 kilometer traveled. What is the value of the truck after 0:16:01.000 --> 0:16:03.560 it has traveled a total distance of one hundred and 0:16:03.560 --> 0:16:06.239 thirty two thousand, six hundred kilometers. 0:16:07.160 --> 0:16:10.560 All right, let's see who gets it first. Sixty five 0:16:10.640 --> 0:16:15.000 zero zero? Wait twenty nine? 0:16:15.080 --> 0:16:19.400 Okay, the answer is a okay, so we do the 0:16:19.440 --> 0:16:22.840 maths I had twenty two thousand. If a truck is 0:16:23.000 --> 0:16:26.800 sixty five thousand dollars when it's new, then the value 0:16:26.840 --> 0:16:29.160 of the truck depreciates at a rate of twenty two 0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:32.360 cents per kilometer. What is the value of the truck 0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:34.800 after it's traveled a total distance of one hundred and 0:16:34.840 --> 0:16:37.800 thirty two thousand, six hundred kilometers. So what you do is, 0:16:37.840 --> 0:16:41.280 what's twenty two cents zero point two two times one 0:16:41.320 --> 0:16:44.240 hundred and thirty two thousand, six hundred kilometers. Then you 0:16:44.280 --> 0:16:46.640 get twenty nine thousand, one hundred and seventy two. 0:16:46.760 --> 0:16:47.400 That's what I got. 0:16:47.440 --> 0:16:50.120 So you take twenty nine thousand, one hundred and seventy 0:16:50.120 --> 0:16:54.040 two away from sixty five thousand dollars because twenty nine 0:16:54.040 --> 0:16:58.040 thousand this emount is depreciated from the value of the truck, 0:16:58.080 --> 0:16:59.360 which is sixty five thousand. 0:16:59.560 --> 0:17:00.520 And is that what I said? 0:17:01.440 --> 0:17:04.200 Twenty seven or twenty two or something? 0:17:04.920 --> 0:17:07.200 Okay, So what was the answer flex of number two? 0:17:07.320 --> 0:17:07.560 Eight? 0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:13.760 Yeah? Damn. The last question. A bag contains one hundred 0:17:13.760 --> 0:17:15.639 and fifty jelly beans. Some of them are red and 0:17:15.640 --> 0:17:20.200 the rest of blue. It's giving the matrix. The ratio 0:17:20.280 --> 0:17:23.320 of red to blue jelly beans is two to three. 0:17:23.960 --> 0:17:27.040 Sophie eats ten of each color. What is the new 0:17:27.119 --> 0:17:29.240 ratio of red to blue jelly beans? 0:17:30.000 --> 0:17:30.280 Wait? 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:32.840 Wait, the ratio of red to blue jelly beans is 0:17:32.840 --> 0:17:35.320 two to three if she she eats ten of each color. 0:17:36.680 --> 0:17:42.640 Please, you're distracting me. One fifty divided by five equals thirty. 0:17:43.640 --> 0:17:47.920 Why are you now talking out? Oh five eight. 0:17:48.880 --> 0:17:52.080 Five eight, I guess it at the same time. 0:17:52.840 --> 0:17:54.679 Was that the same time, Yeah, babe, it was Was 0:17:54.680 --> 0:17:56.399 that the same time? Hands up? If it was the 0:17:56.440 --> 0:17:58.040 same time, well, I can't. 0:17:57.840 --> 0:18:00.720 Believe I would have actually got that question without your interruption. 0:18:01.200 --> 0:18:02.400 Well we we are. 0:18:03.440 --> 0:18:06.520 We are ten years post. It's not more than this. 0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:09.760 We don't have the capacity to answer these questions. Oh, 0:18:09.760 --> 0:18:12.520 there's something so so beautiful nostalgia using a little pen 0:18:12.600 --> 0:18:14.640 to do it's nice. 0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:17.280 We need to get back on the pen to paper. 0:18:17.520 --> 0:18:19.000 I do it all the time every time we're here. 0:18:19.760 --> 0:18:22.399 Yeah, making and it shows. Yeah, phenomenal. Thank you so 0:18:22.480 --> 0:18:23.560 much for that. I really enjoyed it. 0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:29.560 My pleasure Scissors Paper Rock. We had quite what I 0:18:29.560 --> 0:18:33.040 would say is quite a heated discussion, FLEXI about what 0:18:33.080 --> 0:18:36.880 our preferred method was for playing the game. I said, 0:18:37.000 --> 0:18:40.359 it's paper, scissor is rock and like shake shake, shake, 0:18:40.520 --> 0:18:42.720 not paper Scius's rock with. 0:18:42.760 --> 0:18:46.720 Yeah, you had like it was more of a percussion. 0:18:47.560 --> 0:18:49.920 How do you do it? Paper says rock? 0:18:50.240 --> 0:18:52.400 No? I did paper scissors. 0:18:52.000 --> 0:18:55.480 Rock papers rock. It's like a rhythmic. 0:18:56.200 --> 0:19:00.680 No, what are you saying? Paper scissors rock papers rock? 0:19:01.160 --> 0:19:04.800 And so I'm saying, when you do scissors paper rock, 0:19:04.960 --> 0:19:07.400 there's a crescendo and a speed. 0:19:07.119 --> 0:19:09.080 And a build. It's climactic. 0:19:09.800 --> 0:19:15.400 It starts to low, it goes hi scissars, paper rock, scissars, 0:19:15.520 --> 0:19:16.280 paper rock. 0:19:16.440 --> 0:19:19.080 It could be the same paper scissors, right, but it's not. 0:19:19.320 --> 0:19:20.960 That's the thing. But it's not. 0:19:21.320 --> 0:19:23.440 Okay, So we came to concluding that this is a 0:19:23.800 --> 0:19:26.760
