The following program is produced by the Tech Talk Radio Network. Hi, this
0:03
is Dadrian Barbo. You're listening to tech Talk Radio and you're gonna learn a
0:08
lot. Welcome to another episode of tech Talk Radio. I'm Andy Taylor,
0:17
I'm Seanda Weird, and I'm Justin Lemmy. We are the show that talks
0:21
about computers, technology and the Internet. So, guys, I wanted to
0:26
start off the show this week with a public service message that I think is
0:32
extremely important. We have talked, we have talked all the time about the
0:38
importance of once in a while pulling away from the keyboard, to put it
0:42
aside, take the technology and put it in the other room, to shut
0:47
down the computer, let it run an update, and go outside and enjoy
0:53
what beautifulness that we have out in nature, just so beautiful skies, and
1:00
getting off the technology. But all right, hold hold on, hold on,
1:03
what the heck is this outside you're talking about? Well, I'm talking
1:04
about how important it is. They say to go outside, but as we
1:08
could see, that could be very dangerous, It could be tragic, it
1:12
could be it could be off awful and even more reason the public services,
1:17
stay on your computer, get on that keyboard, go online and visit virtual
1:22
worlds. Do not ride a bicycle outside? Oh good, here we go.
1:33
No bicycles. Yes, ride a virtual bicycle. You know, invest
1:37
in the meta, you know it. Get the Occarty hard strap on the
1:42
oculus so that you could pretend you're riding a bike so you don't have to
1:47
worry about falling off the bike. Shanda doesn't even know what we're talking about,
1:51
right, No idea, I have no idea. All right. If
1:55
you notice, Justin is wearing a wrist strap because Justin decided to get off
2:00
the technology and take his son and wife outside. Okay, first off,
2:05
I did not decide. I was told to go on a bike ride,
2:12
yeah, much to my sugar, and I did not want to, right,
2:15
but I had to ye. So we went on a bike ride with
2:20
the family, just I mean just around the neighborhood, just to get out,
2:23
you know, because Eric, you know, he finally learned how to
2:24
ride his bike, and you know, he can keep up with us.
2:27
And we both had bikes. And I've got a I don't know, I
2:30
mean, it's I bought it from Walmart. Ain't nothing crazy, excemaraning that,
2:35
but it's some one of them a little huffies like they wrote an eat
2:38
is it? No, No, it's not like a BMX bike randing,
2:42
it's a it's like a it's it's a hybrid. It's like a it's like
2:45
a mountain bike meets a road bike. I mean it's got road tires with
2:49
like extra tread on it, so it gives it a little bit more of
2:53
that grip. But I would never take it on like a mountain trail because
2:57
tires aren't wide enough to do that anyway. But it's ten speed, you
3:00
know whatever, fifteen speed something like that. I remember, Actually, no,
3:04
no tak about it's a twenty one speed. There's three main gears and
3:07
seven smaller gears on each side, so yeah, it's a twenty one.
3:09
See just how out of the loop I am. I always thought bikes only
3:14
went up to ten speed. Well yeah, honestly, yeah, I kind
3:19
of thought so too, But I mean, whatever, it's a twenty one
3:21
speed. But we were just riding through the neighborhood, not not a big
3:23
deal, um. And Eric's riding his bike next to me and he we
3:28
were coming off an alleyway and the concrete dips down so we can like meet
3:34
the street, you know, so cars drive without getting a bump. Well,
3:38
I was gonna go down that as as I was supposed to, but
3:39
Eric got a little close to me. So I decided, you know what,
3:42
I'm just gonna I'm just gonna jump the curb. I mean, it's
3:44
right here, it's easy, you know. I was just like six inches
3:46
clearance whatever. So as I lifted up on the front of my bike to
3:52
try to get that little bit of a oomph that I need to get over
3:54
the curb. As I lifted up on it, I noticed something went wrong
4:00
when my front tire came off. Oh no, but my dad put together
4:04
your bike because he did that to me when I was a kid. Well,
4:08
you see, this ain't the first time this has happened to me too,
4:11
because when I was like four years old, same thing happened to my
4:13
dad when he was taking me on a bike ride. And I'm sitting on
4:15
the front on the handlebars and the front tire came off and I took a
4:18
header, And that's pretty much what I did here. I the front tire
4:23
came off, and I looked down hit the handlebars when it came down,
4:27
and I flipped over. My wife said, my legs were like one eighty
4:30
up in the air, oh my lord, and I flipped over and landed
4:32
on the on the asphalt and scuffed up my hand. Pretty decent, kind
4:38
of not I wouldn't want to say pulled a muscle, but like strained muscles
4:43
throughout my arm and elbow and uh and shoulder, my back, herds,
4:46
my butt, herds, I mean all this stuff. But you took a
4:49
dive. I took a dive. I took a dive. Um. But
4:54
immediately after that happened, you know, we Eric stops and he drops his
4:57
bike and he comes running up to me, and my wife has stopped,
5:00
got her phone out. My first eye. She was gonna take a picture
5:02
of the whole thing. But no, she was like, I mean,
5:05
I wouldn't blame her. I think it'd be kind of hilarious. I'm still
5:09
looking for a neighbor that's got the footage on their ring camera or whatever.
5:13
But no, she was like, dude, I need a down nine one
5:15
one. I'm like, no, no, just chill Like I thought.
5:17
I broke a rib first off, because I hit hard. I mean I
5:20
hit the candlebars with my chest and then I hit my back when I went
5:25
went down, so I thought I broke a rib. But I was like,
5:28
oh, just just just wait a second. I'll be fine. I'll
5:31
be fine. And I stood up and I like looking at Eric, and
5:33
Eric was just mouth a gate, you know, looking at me, and
5:36
I'm like what and he goes, Dad, your hand and I look over
5:41
at my hand and my hands just like dripping blood out. I'll be okay,
5:45
and he's like, what you're bleeding? And I was like, yeah,
5:48
I'll be okay. And he's like, Dad, are you superman?
5:57
And so so I I just had it. I was like, you know
6:00
what, let let let me get let me get my senses about me,
6:02
right, because I was like, this is an opportunity for me to play
6:04
this off right, right. So I was like, let me get my
6:06
senses about me first. So like I took like five seconds or so,
6:11
at least that's what I thought. I took about five seconds. I kind
6:13
of gathered my senses and I looked around make sure everything's okay, and then
6:15
I was like Eric, come here. I was like, I got right
6:17
in his ear, and I was like, don't tell anybody that you're a
6:21
superhero, right, yeah, that I'm that I'm a Superman and I was
6:26
like, I was like, don't tell anybody, and He's like, oh,
6:28
okay, okay, and I'm like, all right, I'll be fine.
6:30
I'll be fine. So I like we you know, we were walking
6:32
the bike back home, you know, we get home. You know,
6:34
Eric was like, oh, you need to put on alcohol on the wound
6:39
because otherwise you have to cut it off. Because we had done this a
6:42
couple weeks prior with him he scuffed up his knee and I was like,
6:45
you know, we we we gotta, we gotta disinfect it, you know,
6:47
just in case we don't want to get infected because then you might have
6:50
to cut it off. So this was like his super Bowl for him because
6:55
he was like, oh my gosh, now I get to see my dad
6:58
pour alcohol on his wound and see how he reacts. Uh, you know,
7:01
because he was crying, he was screaming his butt off. So did
7:05
you we had to do it? Did you? Did you hand it up
7:08
a little? I mean, at least you know, when Rambo was like
7:10
stitching himself up, you still have to grimace and grit your teeth. Oh
7:14
gosh, yeah, of course I handed it up. Yeah, I mean
7:17
I reached for a pen and I bit down on the pen and I was
7:20
like, I'm pouring the alcohol in my hand. I'm like, no,
7:30
no, no, I'm okay, I'm okay, okay, you know,
7:33
just playing it up. And he's just like he's like, i mean,
7:36
just sitting there cheering in the background. It's like, oh my god,
7:40
he's like, Dad, Dad is so cool. Dad, He's a man.
7:44
I scored some serious cool points to my kid on that one. My
7:47
wife is just sitting there looking at me, like shaking her head and just
7:50
like and so I'm sitting there pouring alcohol in my hand and I look at
7:56
her and I kind of motioned towards the whiskey and I'm like and she's like,
8:01
oh oh yeah, yeah, okay, yeah, no problem. She
8:03
pours me a shot of whiskey, and I'm just like, down the hatch.
8:07
Oh yes, fireball, yes, perfect, not fireball. No,
8:11
this was like this was the actual like whiskey whiskey. But anyway, but
8:16
yeah, no, I'm glad you're okay. It could have been bad.
8:18
Yeah, oh, it could have been worse, because the crazy part about
8:22
it was I didn't hit my head, thankfully, but right before we left,
8:26
you know, Eric. I made Eric wear his helmet and he's like,
8:26
Dad, are you gonna wear a helmet? I'm like no, I'll
8:28
be fine. We're right through the neighborhood. Yeah. Never gonna, never
8:31
gonna live that one down. Now we learn from this, right destin,
8:35
We learned number one, just one, don't go on bike ride with your
8:39
family, stay home, just do a virtual bike rides, stay on your
8:43
computer. Yes. Um. The other one is everybody should have a GoPro
8:46
on their bike because that could have been some great footage. Well, I'm
8:50
sure there's a neighbor that's got a ring camera because I mean this was right
8:54
in front of like seven different neighbors houses, So right, I'm sure there's
8:58
somebody. I just have to ask on our little face book neighborhood neighborhood Facebook
9:01
page and be like, has anybody got footage of me busting my butt?
9:05
I'll give you up a twenty dollar bill for somebody that has that footage.
9:09
Yeah, wow, you're gonna post on the front page of techtok radio dot
9:13
com. Absolutely, yeah, right now, this is what happens when a
9:20
nerd tries to ride a bike. Now I'm wondering, you know, pet
9:22
think about it. Though Peloton has been doing these virtual rides, have they
9:26
actually created though an oculus version of riding a bike? I kind of wonder,
9:31
you know, you get on a stationary bike and you go for a
9:33
ride. I wonder if they actually do that. I know they do it.
9:37
Peloton's got it. So you've got a screen, right, and you're
9:41
looking at footage, but you're riding. You don't feel it. I can
9:43
imagine if if they had one. I've seen people put fans in front of
9:48
their Peloton to blow on them to give them that that simulation feeling of riding
9:54
through wind. Right, what they need to do is they need to simulate
9:56
the front tire coming off and you're taken a header. Now, then I'd
10:03
buy a Peloton. There is a game called hollow Fit which has several VR
10:09
games that are for working out. It looks like you can ride a bike
10:13
through It looks pretty cartoony, but yeah, that still would be kind of
10:18
cool because then you're still getting to work out on a stationary bike, but
10:22
wearing you know, the oculus. But I'm being on an all serious no,
10:26
Peloton, they're not doing so well right now. I mean they were,
10:31
yeah, during the pandemic. They were they were killing it. Yeah,
10:33
because you know, everybody's staying at home. You know, everybody's wont
10:37
to work out. But when everybody started going back to work, you know
10:39
pelt You know, Peloton is expensive. I mean you're dropping what six seven
10:45
k on a on a bike and plus you gotta pay like, what is
10:48
it two hundred bucks a month? I don't know if it's that for their
10:52
service. I know you have to pay for the service. Uh, And
10:54
I guess there's different levels of service than what you want to do, but
10:58
I mean it is like having a personal trainer at the gym. I mean
11:01
we had I'm trying to We had a guest on the show once talking about
11:05
her using Peloton and actually helped her lose a lot of weight. This is
11:09
before the pandemic started. And then of course, you know, yeah,
11:13
they exploded during the pandemic because people want I had a gym membership that I
11:18
had just started. I want to say, wow, I got it in
11:22
December through my company. It was like twenty bucks a month to go to
11:26
La Fitness, and I was like, this is cool. I'm gonna get
11:28
in there and work out. Well. Of course, December you've got everything
11:31
going on with a holiday. So I didn't go January. It was like
11:35
I didn't go, and then I was planning, Okay, I'm gonna go
11:37
in February, and that's when we started to get the word about COVID and
11:41
people like suddenly, and then before you knew it, they were closed.
11:45
And I think I paid for five months of that thing. And then finally
11:48
the company said yeah, yeah, we're gonna be wrapping this one up and
11:52
they just started again. But I'm no, I'm not gonna do it.
11:54
I love I love the idea behind Peloton. I think it's just it's unsustainable.
11:58
I mean, the amount of money that you pay for their for their
12:03
device, the bike, plus the service, it's just it's way too expensive.
12:07
I mean, I see so many people in our neighborhood Facebook group that
12:11
are like, hey, I got a Peloton for sale. Nobody even comments
12:15
on it, like they're like, nope, not touching that. Yeah for
12:18
the bike plus how much that's right? Oh, for the bike that includes
12:26
shipping and delivery and set up and some weights and shoes and a mat and
12:31
some other stuff, plus twelve months of the Peloton service, so you get
12:37
in the twelve, you get the twelve months of service with the bike.
12:39
Trying to figure out what the Peloton app costs because it doesn't have it on
12:43
here. Yeah, I mean I would assume it's maybe maybe I was a
12:46
little off. Maybe it's maybe like one hundred bucks a month, or maybe
12:48
maybe it was seven, like sixty bucks a month. Whatever, regardless,
12:52
I mean, they're not doing well. Their stock took a dive early twenty
12:56
twenty two. You know, when people are starting to go back to work
12:58
and go back to the gyms, Peloton was not doing so good. I
13:01
mean they tried to they try to capitalize upon the pandemic, and it worked
13:07
for short term, but I think they were too near sighted and they didn't
13:11
realize, well, what's going to happen when people start going back to work?
13:15
Yeah, you know, and I think that's where they really failed.
13:18
I think maybe like it's like you go to a gym, all right,
13:20
so you go to La Fitness, you go to Planet Fitness, you go
13:22
to whatever, whichever gym you have a tendency to want to keep going to
13:26
that one. You know the equipment, you know the routine. Everybody has
13:31
their same routine. I'll go on this, and then I'll go on the
13:33
treadmill, and I'll go the sauna and I'll do you have that same kind
13:37
of rhythm of working out. So I think what they're hoping for is that,
13:41
Okay, people are at home, they want to work out, they'll
13:43
want to suddenly just not be doing that. So how cool is it to
13:48
have this peloton in a in a room or the garage or somewhere that has
13:52
this this experience, which is, let's face it, that's what Peloton brings
13:56
to the game. You could go buy, you know, a stationary bike,
14:00
it didn't have that same experience you got off a stationary bike or the
14:03
peloton this way. I think they were hoping people would continue that, but
14:07
the fact is, you know, somebody calls you up says, well,
14:09
I think we're okay to go back to the gyms, and you go with
14:13
your friends. You know, you don't the Peloton experience. Unless they had
14:20
a virtual way to do it with your friends. Then that was you could
14:22
do like private workouts with your friends and not everything on Peloton's prerecorded. I
14:26
mean, there's a lot of live classes, and that's kind of what you're
14:30
paying for, is the live classes where they can call you out and say,
14:33
hey, you know, Andy, come on, pick up the pace,
14:35
you know, pick up the pace, Andy, keep others. But
14:37
there's a lot of prerecorded ones, and you can do, you know,
14:39
stuff with your friends, or you can just be like me and just go
14:41
out and just bust your butt on a real bike, you know, and
14:46
get injured. I mean, that's you know, that's always an option.
14:48
Yeah, that didn't work out too well for you, But no, you'll
14:52
get back on the bike and ride again, won't you. I mean,
14:54
oh totally. I mean yeah, I love it. I mean I love
14:56
doing that. And yeah, it was it was partly my fault because my
14:58
bike has been hanging upside down for probably close to oh gosh, I mean,
15:05
I don't remember the last I took it down, probably like two or
15:07
three years. It's been hanging up there, you know. Yeah. I
15:09
don't even Eric could Yeah, Eric, Eric couldn't ride a bike, so
15:13
there's no real purpose for me riding a bike. So yeah, it's been
15:16
up there for a while. And I thought I went through everything. I
15:20
mean, I lubricated the chains, I checked the brakes, I reinflated all
15:24
the tires on all the bikes, but I guess I just didn't check the
15:26
quick release bolt on the front tire of mine, because mine has that quick
15:31
release so you can take off the front tire and then lock it up so
15:35
people don't steal your bike. I never checked that. Well, I'll be
15:37
darn sure to check that from now on. You know, I think they're
15:41
making bikes now too that have more technology built into them so it can do
15:46
all of that. I mean, check it. And kind of like your
15:48
bags, they have them for recycles, they actually have them for recycle.
15:54
You get an air bag, you look a little goofy riding it, but
15:58
hey, if you fly off your protect I did well. I wish I
16:00
would have had them on yesterday. You don't stop rolling to hit Yuma,
16:03
but I mean why not? Well turn in a bubble boy. I don't
16:08
know. I don't know if you want to stop a humayeh. Still rolling,
16:15
but take the three tend to human and be like get out of there.
16:18
You know, And well that that brings up the whole idea too,
16:22
of fitness and working out and using technology to help out. Justin I know
16:26
you have the watch that kind of tracks everything you do. Does it help
16:30
in your fitness regiment at all. I mean telling you, hey, get
16:33
out and walk. Absolutely, it would definitely help me if I actually didn't
16:37
fitness. But no, I mean in all seriousness, yeah, no,
16:40
it helps me. It'll I pay for the Fitbit premium um so I got.
16:45
I got it for six months for free, and I I went ahead
16:48
and paid for another year of it. I use it mostly for sleep tracking,
16:52
because I want to be able to see how I'm sleeping. It does
16:53
remind me every single hour, like hey, you need forty five steps to
16:57
complete your steps for this hour, or you need to get up and go
17:02
walk around because you've been sitting for I don't know, two three hours or
17:06
whatever. Right, So it does help me. It keeps me somewhat motivated.
17:10
I used to wear it when I was doing karate with Eric. I
17:12
would wear it during karate. My senses were like, you can't wear that,
17:17
and I'm like, well my doctor says I need to, and they're
17:18
like, all right, whatever, Yeah, totally lied about that. If
17:22
you're watching or listening, sense, sorry, I wear it because I wanted
17:26
to be able to track the fitness of that because the watch keeps tell me,
17:30
oh, you're not doing any fitness you're not doing any fitness. Well,
17:32
yeah, because I'm not wearing the watch when I'm doing karate, and
17:36
that's fitness. So I started wearing it and using the karate at activity on
17:41
it, and it'd be like, oh, congratulations, you just did an
17:44
hour of you know, strengtuous activity. I'm like, yep, I do
17:47
it twice a week. Yes, I should be doing more. I think
17:51
it does help. Sean, do you have one of these smart watches?
17:52
I have the Apple Watch Series three. All right, so I've been thinking
17:56
the latest. No, no, yeah, they have this series eight,
18:02
the series Ultra. Good lord. We bought our So Kaitlin and I bought
18:07
each other the watches for our first anniversary in twenty eighteen. Oh wow,
18:11
okay, yeah yeah yeah. So I've had this watch and it wasn't even
18:14
the newest version of the watch at the time m in twenty eighteen, so
18:18
it's been five years. I've had this watch for twen Can you still do
18:22
updates on it? It doesn't allow that. Yeah, it's I mean it's
18:26
starting to show its age and it's starting to not you know, I have
18:29
to reboot it once a week probably for it to sync properly. With my
18:32
phone and push all my notifications to it stuff. But it's been really great
18:36
and it'll track my you know, outdoor walks and my workouts and stuff.
18:40
And but it's it's time for an update. For sure. I've been thinking
18:42
about getting one, but I because I don't have anything like that. I
18:45
just have my phone. And there's a health section on the iPhone fourteen Promax
18:49
what that will tell you where you're you're an iPhone you're an iPhone user?
18:52
Andy? Yeah? Yeah, so. I mean, honestly though, one
18:56
of the best things about the smart watches it's not just necessarily for fitness.
19:00
I mean, yes, they're really good for fitness, but also it's it's
19:03
it's nice because if somebody texts me or I get an email, I don't
19:08
have to reach for my phone and unlock my phone, open up the app
19:12
see who texted me. I can just quickly look at my watch and be
19:15
like, oh, Sean texted me. Yeah, I'll get back to him
19:18
later or whatever, you know, Like I can see immediately on my watch
19:22
what's going on, and so I don't have to really worry about it.
19:26
Yeah. So when I first got mine, right, you really notice it
19:27
in social settings. Like if you're out doing something and you're or you're shopping
19:33
or doing something and you get you get pinged and you feel your watch vibrate,
19:37
you just look up. Oh, it's just an email. I can
19:40
just keep going. I don't have to dig out my phone figure out who
19:42
yeah, or it's like oh Johnson texted me, all right, I can
19:45
just quickly or ignore or whatever. Right, So it's just a quick look
19:53
at my wrist down right. And I like the customizable watch faces, and
19:57
that did the different m complicated they calm complications on the iPhone, on the
20:02
eye watch, but the Apple Watch. There is one downside though to this.
20:06
If you're if you're what, please correct me if I'm wrong here.
20:10
What does it mean when you can see far away but you're up close you
20:14
can't Is that near sighted? Okay? Yeah, So for people who are
20:18
nearsighted, it sucks because I mean, I can't see my watch, and
20:23
I'm like, I have to grab my readers and put on my readers half
20:27
the time to be able to see what's going on on the watch because you
20:32
know the text is so small. And yes, you can you can turn
20:33
on accessibility mode to make the font larger, but then you're missing half the
20:40
content on the screen. You have to keep scrolling, scrolling, scrolling.
20:42
Somebody was making for the watches and anybody listening that's been thinking about doing it.
20:47
They were making like a little microscope or not microscope, but a but
20:51
a lens that could be put over your smart watch so it magnified it.
20:53
Yeah, so it would magnify that. So if you let it just fit
20:56
right over the top of it, so you would look and there it was
20:59
mag to fight. So it did make the watch face bigger, but there
21:03
your your eyes were able to more adjust on it. I'm looking at like
21:06
so on your iPhones there is a fitness section and I'm looking at it and
21:10
it says that I've walked almost a mile, right, I've taken one thousand,
21:15
nine hundred and thirty five steps, which I would think on the surface
21:19
is not bad. Right, but this is for the entire week. Oh
21:23
my gosh, oh dear morn dude. Okay, in all seriousness and Andy,
21:30
I'm being honest. Plots. Yeah, dude, at your age,
21:34
you need to be walking around a lot more about No, no, no,
21:37
no, I'm being honest. One thousand, nine hundred steps in a
21:41
week, Bro, I do that before nine am. Okay, yeah,
21:47
maybe maybe I gotta get one of these watches so it'll remind me. Hey,
21:49
get up. Yeah, you need you need, you need to get
21:52
some more. Eighty eight hundred steps just today, three point eight zero miles.
21:56
Wow, just today, just in one day. Well, you know
22:00
I've mentioned, you know I worked for water World, right, and so
22:03
water World is opening up here in about three weeks. Once water World opens
22:07
up, my step count goes through the roof. I'm walking twelve to fifteen
22:11
thousand steps a day. Wait, they don't give you a little golf cart?
22:14
I wish? Yeah. No, we have golf carts in the off
22:17
season or when the park's closed. But when the park's open, we can't
22:18
ride around in golf carts. You might run out for somebody, Yeah exactly,
22:22
lose a wheel. Yeah, shut up. So there you mentioning this.
22:29
So the two days that I did our show where we struct our show
22:33
or our big live show, Yeah, I walked fourteen thousand, nine night
22:37
one steps six point seven four miles. That's in one day. That's in
22:41
twenty four hours. Wow, man, that's why you were here last week.
22:47
Yeah, so that was when we were striking our show. So it's
22:48
moving all the gear back and forth between the new but you know our studio
22:52
and the set and everything. All right, So what should people get?
22:55
I mean, all right, if say I'm an iPhone user, do I
22:57
buy an Apple watch? Or can I get a Google You know, Google's
23:00
doing this new thing with their their Galaxy watches where you get free service.
23:06
Now, I mean that's that that's with the what is it the fiber?
23:10
So you get Google fiber delivered to your smart to your smart watch in select
23:15
markets. But why not, did you? Yeah? How can you get
23:19
fiber? Well it's it's five G five G. I'm sorry, I best
23:26
like, what what are you gonna do? This slap of the fiber connection
23:29
to your watch? You're like, what, I can play Fortnite on the
23:32
watch, but apparently, Yeah, it's it's like five G. It's provided
23:34
by T Mobile. But it's a special deal that Google's got going with their
23:38
their smart watches fathered So yeah, Google fight, so you'd be able to
23:44
you'd be able to do that. I have it. I have LTE on
23:47
my watch already, so I don't Yeah, well yeah, yeah, it's
23:48
a free line. Yeah, it comes to Google five, so I just
23:52
had to pay for the smart watch. But no, honestly, man,
23:53
I don't know. You look at it this way. If you're an Apple
23:56
phone user, get an Apple Watch, okay with it. If you're gonna
24:00
be a Google or if you're an Android user, you've got multitude of choices.
24:04
You've got the Galaxy Gear huh, made by Samsung, right, yep,
24:08
You've got the Google Pixel right, You've got oh gosh, help me
24:11
out here, Sean, I'm a handful of the fitbits. Fit is Google
24:17
now anyway, but yeah, why why? Yeah, they make a forty
24:25
seven million I was gonna say that I had no idea that why is made
24:29
of watch and it's cheap. Really, I'm sure, I'm sure it's not
24:32
great. I haven't seen also going to act cheap too. You do have
24:37
some multitude options with if you're Android. Obviously, I picked pixel Watch because
24:42
it is their flagship watch. Now. Galaxy Gear is another good option,
24:48
especially if you're on a Samsung device. Maybe you want to go with the
24:52
Galaxy Watch. But I personally like the Google pixel Watch. This is their
24:56
first iteration of it, so it's just gonna get better from here. Meanwhile,
25:02
you know, galaxies got I don't know how many iterations they've got out,
25:04
eight, nine, ten. I think they're seven or eight now.
25:07
For the Galaxy watch is what my in law's got, and they really liked
25:12
them, and they were able to figure it out most things out right without
25:15
my help. But if I could just ask for one thing for the next
25:18
Google Picksel watch, well, I would like a bigger bezel. I want
25:22
a big watch. I want the screen to be bigger. It's not big
25:26
at all. I mean, yeah, it may look big, I don't
25:29
know, but it's not. It's it's a forty forty two or forty four
25:33
millimeter watch face. It's not big enough. I would I would pay extra
25:40
to have an extra large version of this with an extra large screen. I'm
25:44
talking about those comically large watches that people have on their wrists. I would
25:49
pay for that if I could get that in a smart watch. Yeah,
25:52
you want like the flavor flav on your wrist, right, I mean maybe
25:55
not that big. And if if you're super into outdoor activities and like tracking
26:02
like body fitness and your outdoor stuff, garment makes a handful of watching the
26:06
garment garments. Okay, yeah, if you're in it just straight up.
26:08
For the fitness aspect of it, garment is the way to go. Yeah,
26:11
obviously, garment because that that was what they focused on. The GPS
26:15
capabilities, the LTE being able to be away from your smartphone, the fitness
26:21
tracking, the sensors they have on it with like body temperature, heartbeat,
26:26
um, uh, hydration they can they can get the level of hydration in
26:33
your body to let you know when to drink well you're too dehydrates. We've
26:37
heard stories about people that have had um, you know, they've had heart
26:42
conditions and they've had a situation where they had to get in and get see
26:48
a doctor, like right away. And we've heard a story about how I
26:51
think it was the Apple Watch is the one that sent the notification to the
26:55
gentleman saying, you know, you need to see a doctor. Um,
26:57
because it was able to read just that to be a very serious problem.
27:03
So I actually have that feature on. So there's a couple of cool features
27:06
that Apple has as well, but so does a Google Pixel. I have
27:08
the ability for it to tell me if I'm having a heart attack right now.
27:14
Thankfully I've never had it happen. Obviously, Um, and I'm afraid.
27:18
You know, there's no way to think about it. I mean,
27:21
how do you how do you test the sensor to let you know if you
27:23
have a heart attack. I mean you can't really just stop your heart for
27:26
a moment just to be like, hey, I'm wonder if this you'll figure
27:30
out. Yeah, you'll see how how fast your heartbeat will go. Well,
27:33
I it does tell me if I have a lot of caffeine. It'll
27:36
say, hey, your heart rate is spiking right now, and I'm like,
27:38
okay, it's time to time to lay off the caffeine for a little
27:41
bit. That's my secret. I just give my caffee level really high.
27:47
So you like, when I'm resting you, it's like your average is lower?
27:52
Are you okay? Yeah? Well, well you know I you you
27:56
guys know that I have. I've had a situation with attack a cardia where
28:00
suddenly my heart And it happened first time here at this station when I was
28:04
on the air in the morning, and I remember I went to go this
28:07
when a chit Indianna were here and I went in and I asked him,
28:10
I said, do you have any aspirin? She's like, wow, you
28:12
look kind of flush, and I told him, well, I feel something
28:15
kind of weird. And I went to the Northwest upper here on Duval and
28:21
lachan Yana and they tested my heart and I was two hundred and twelve beats
28:26
per minute. Oh yeah. So my dad had had had to have part
28:32
of his valve a bladed at one point, probably when I was in my
28:34
teens, because he had what they call hyper attack a cardia. So he
28:41
would just be sitting there and all of a sudden he'd be like, oh
28:44
his heart rate, his heart rate would jump to like two sixty yeah,
28:47
oh my lord. Yeah, and so it would make him really lightheaded and
28:52
dizzy and stuff. And yeah. So they went in and it bladed it
28:55
basically like put a balloon in, stretched it out and then shocked a part
28:59
of his heart right and then got it back into Wow. Yeah. They
29:03
they end up stopping stopping my heart and then uh, I kind of woke
29:07
up and and then what and saw that. I stayed at night in the
29:10
hospital and then they told me it's it can happen, and when it happens,
29:14
it's what you do. Pound your chest, cough and then start have
29:18
to see a cardiologist. But at least that's crazy. I mean, but
29:22
I was gonna say, well, I was gonna say when it comes to
29:23
technology, before you get to your point, h Cardia Systems. They make
29:29
a reader that is for you. You may have seen the ads. They're
29:32
like ninety nine bucks. You can get up for seventy nine dollars if you
29:36
ever are in that situation where you want to check to say, hey,
29:37
my heart's going a little fast. For me, it's been great because you
29:41
know, I might get that feeling of flushness and I'll check it and go,
29:44
oh, I'm up to one eighty. So again, those are that's
29:48
a really good piece of technology that's out there, paired with a smartphone where
29:51
you can kind of keep track of it, and that's by Cardia KA r
29:53
D i A Systems. I did look at Cardia because I also have sometimes
29:57
where I get a little weird demand just I'm like, I'm like, oh,
30:00
wow, what does that? You know? But I've heard I can't
30:03
remember exactly what it was, but there was something about Cardia that people were
30:07
just ripping them apart about. I think it was something like their subscription model.
30:11
Yeah, they or something. Do your research if you're looking at Cardia.
30:15
Do your research because there is some hidden stuff about them that may make
30:21
it not quite right. I think it depends on the level because I'm a
30:26
big fan of theirs. And yeah, they do have a subscription model where
30:30
you could pay to get extended tests to test for two other symptoms that you
30:36
may be going through. But if you're looking for just I want to get
30:37
my what my heartbeat is now, and it keeps track of that, you
30:41
can even send it to a doctor. That that part is free when you
30:45
buy the Cardia device itself, so that comes with it with the app.
30:49
But yeah, there are more extended tests than maybe and you know, as
30:52
always with all apps, people say, wait a minute, I didn't know
30:55
I had to pay for this. There are certain things you can pay for.
30:57
We find every app with with basically all these smart watches that we've been
31:03
talking about, you get that for free. You get basic heart monitoring for
31:07
free. I mean that comes with it, even with the fit with the
31:11
Google pixel Watch, you don't have to subscribe to the fitbit premium to get
31:15
your heart rate. I mean that's just included automatically. The other feature that
31:21
I really wanted to mention about that it comes on Apple Watches, it comes
31:23
on Google Pixel Watches. I'm assuming it comes on the Galaxy Gear and maybe
31:30
even the garment is fall detection. Now, this is really good for older
31:36
folks. You know, my mom lives alone. You know, she's getting
31:40
older, and I told her, I said, you know, maybe you
31:41
should consider one of these things because she can't. He's not very mobile and
31:47
so if she for to fall down. I mean again, she lives alone
31:49
and she doesn't really have people come over very often. So you know,
31:52
if she fell down, god forbid, she could be down for a long
31:56
time. So to have the fall detection, and I tell listed it on
32:00
the pixel watch. I actually I was like, you know, just hanging
32:04
out. Well, oh my god, sorry, so you tested it.
32:13
I tested it. I was just I was just standing around and I just
32:15
went as like boom and I went limp and I just fell down and just
32:19
to see. And sure enough, the watch was like we just detected a
32:22
faull. Do you need to call nine one one? Wow? And you
32:24
got ten seconds to respond if you don't respond with intense thing as it calls
32:29
nine one one for you, kind of like crash context we see in the
32:30
iPhones. Yeah, yeah, so I was like, no, I'm okay.
32:34
I clicked okay whatever, and it was okay. But it was cool
32:37
to have that feature that if it detects that a sudden quick desceleration, and
32:42
it probably also registers some about your heart rate and stuff like that. But
32:45
I don't know exactly how it works, but it does work. It.
32:49
I'll be honest with you, and I will say this for those who don't
32:52
have the technology now. And I've told the story before. My mom used
32:55
to have Life Alert and Life Alert I believe in. I think that's a
33:00
great product, but she had a friend and a friend told her to get
33:05
rid of it, so you don't need it and you have your your phone.
33:09
Well, I talked to my mom that night. I was June twenty
33:14
first, twenty fourteen, and I talked to her that night, and she
33:17
suddenly had decided she was going to move out to Tucson. She wanted to
33:22
rent the house we had in Huntington's buy a house here that had a kind
33:27
of a it's almost like it's kind of it's kind of cool. It's a
33:30
house. Then you have a side house, and she wanted to live in
33:32
that and we would be there because she was going to be eighty and it
33:36
was going to be a neat thing and was cool. Well, the next
33:38
day, you know, she had told me you call me tomorrow get me
33:40
the info about these houses that were out here, and I said, okay,
33:44
cool, I will I called and didn't get her called my Finally I
33:47
called my sister in the afternoon and I said, you talked to mom,
33:51
and you know, can you go check on her because she hasn't answer And
33:53
that's unlike her. Turned out. Mom used to have a habit of taking
33:58
the phone with her in the bathroom, as her friend had told her to
34:00
do that. One night she had not and when she was in the bathroom
34:05
if she had a stroke, and that stroke left her in the bathroom for
34:08
about ten I want to say, now ten hours is what they estimated in
34:14
and luckily they got there. They were able to you know, call call
34:17
nine one one, get her the treatment, get her to the hospital.
34:21
She did only last about five days six days after that. But I always
34:25
think, what if she had the life alert because you know, responding to
34:29
a stroke within within hours is very important. Yeah, so there's the you
34:34
know fast right, yea arms speech time right exactly, So if your face
34:39
troops, your arms are you can't lift your right arm or left arm right,
34:44
and then speech storing speech and then time and unfortunately, so that's a
34:49
big you know, that's a huge thing for people. My grandfather had a
34:52
stroke, right, yeah, and you know, so it's I just want
34:53
to say that to people out there, if you're not if you're not familiar
34:57
with that, those are the signs of a stroke, right, so asked
35:00
if you don't have one, if you don't have life alert, if you
35:04
don't, and I recommend that for anybody that is especially alone. But if
35:07
you don't have it, make sure that phone is always always with you.
35:09
And because of that, that's why you'll very rarely see me without the phone.
35:14
And it's just the habit, you know, it's charged to always carry
35:16
it because just never never know and yet for to get you to answer the
35:21
phone. Yeah, that's another all right, we go to take a quick
35:24
break. We'd come back. We got more technology. We'd love your comments.
35:29
You can email us tech guys at tech talk radio dot com. You
35:32
could text us anytime at five two zero seven seven seven ninety five eighty.
35:37
I'm Andy Taylor. I'm Sean dew weird and I'm justin. Let me find
35:42
us on Facebook at facebook dot com forward slash tech Talkers. We'll be right
35:46
back and now back to tech talk radio. So we talked about the watches
35:52
in the last segment. Yeah, and I mentioned that Wise had watches that
35:58
just blows me away. They have all sorts of I've always right. So
36:06
they have two watches. They have a forty seven millimeter, which is the
36:09
size that I have the same same as my Apple Watch, and then they
36:12
have a forty four millimeters, so a little bit smaller. It's not gonna
36:15
be anything fancy for the price which of thirty three ninety nine. Wait,
36:20
thirty three dollars Wise Watch forty seven c right, it's forty seven millimeter thirty
36:30
three ninety nine. That's crazy, dude. That thing has got to be
36:34
crap, you know. Yeah, I don't know. I've never used it.
36:37
I've never read any reviews on it. I pass it off as a
36:42
cheap fitbit or something. So if anybody out there has a Wise Watch,
36:45
tell us how you like it. All Right, I'm gonna I'm gonna hit
36:47
in four different colors. Yeah, I'm gonna have to get one because and
36:52
then they're forty four millimeter is twenty nine and oh my lord, that does
36:59
doesn't do your Does it do your heartbeat? Does it do? That?
37:00
Says? It has a heart rate sensor, it has a blood auction sensor.
37:05
It's got you know, an accelerometer in it, it's got it's got
37:09
a it's got a you know, a vibration motor in it so it can
37:12
vibrate under risk. Right. So yeah, if you're if you're looking for
37:16
a cheap watch that you want to just try out, or if you want
37:20
to get a watch a smart watching kid or something, you have to try
37:23
it. We're gonna start doing our Remember the TV segments we used to be
37:28
on every week, and then we went to every like I two weeks,
37:31
and then it's been like once a month whenever they got a new guy that's
37:36
doing KLD. So then they asked me, they said, well, we
37:38
really want you on Fox eleven still, so we're gonna go back to once
37:43
once a week. So I'm thinking, okay, cool, Maybe I'll have
37:46
to get one of these watches and show that what you should do is you
37:49
should be like the in Dick Tracy where you just pull up your sleeve and
37:52
you've got like twelve watch and the review each one. I actually had the
37:58
do you guys remember Microsoft put out the Dick Tracy Watch. Yeah, yep,
38:01
yeah, I actually have that. Still I don't have the charger,
38:05
so I really can't do much with it. But yeah, I got one
38:07
of those watches when Microsoft put that out, and you know, sitting in
38:10
one of the boxes next to the first MP three player. But yeah,
38:15
that would be kind of cool, that would be kind of neat. I
38:16
like that. Yeah, you should get you should get one of the get
38:19
one of each, right, Joshin you mentioned something that what does Wise not
38:24
have? And they don't have what I just bought for my new camper,
38:29
And what did they backup camera? A backup camera like for so you back
38:34
up the trailer the camper. Yeah, so there's Furyon is a is a
38:37
manufacturer for a camper electronics and those things like that. Um, they make
38:43
cameras that mount to the back of your camera. Ours came pre wired with
38:46
a You can just buy the camera and you just basically click it into place
38:51
and then it works with the mater and everything. I'm pretty sure you could
38:53
just strap a WISE cam to the back of your trailer and call it a
38:57
day. I probably could. I probably could if if I ran, if
39:00
I ran the media server with the Wi Fi, right like I did in
39:05
my old camper, then I just connected to my phone and be on the
39:07
WiFi the whole time. Yeah, that would be kind of neat. But
39:09
a backup cameras, it would integrate to maybe a screen in your dashboard,
39:14
right, Yeah, it comes with a four and a half You know,
39:16
they make multiple sizes, right, So Furyon makes a single camera model that's
39:22
a four and a half inch monitor, and then you can add more cameras,
39:25
right. So they make side marker lights, so you can add cameras
39:30
that mount to the side markers on each side of your camp so you can
39:32
see down the side, back down the sides of cameras as well. So
39:37
that company's Furyon. How do you spell that? I you R R I
39:40
O N. All Right. They're a very well known electronics company in the
39:45
RV world, right, So you guys have to remember, right, if
39:47
I drive fifteen minutes down the road, I met Furyon's world headquarters. Oh
39:54
I live. I live in the RV capital of the world, part Indiana?
39:59
Is I could drive five minutes down the road out in Elkhart County.
40:02
My camper was made fifteen minutes from my house. Oh now that's kind of
40:07
eight right, So for those you don't know, you've got yourself a really
40:12
sweet camper. This is so we bought a Forest River no Forest River,
40:17
no boundaries, which is kind of one of their outdoor, more aggressive outdoory
40:22
type ones, off the grid type stuff. So it's got integrated solar,
40:27
got an integrated inverter um, it's got the underbody is completely sealed right,
40:32
so that it's got so it doesn't get exposed to the elements. It's got
40:36
water and water, water tank heaters and water the holding tank heaters and stuff.
40:42
So it could be truly like you could go to a cold climate and
40:46
you know, not your you know, your waterlines are not gonna freeze,
40:50
and your your fresh water lines are not gonna freeze. Your fresh water tank's
40:53
not gonna freeze kind of stuff. Now you gonna put You had a plex
40:55
server that was running in that, are you gonna do the same thing.
41:00
Yeah, So this model actually has a twelve volt TV already in it,
41:02
so I've already got Yeah, it's gott a TV mounted on the side and
41:07
stuff. So I've already got my Raspberry Pie mounted with a four terriby hard
41:10
drive with all my content on it ready to go, just like I had
41:14
in my in my other camper. Right, but this is I didn't have
41:15
to wire it in right like I did before ride to wire it into the
41:20
radio and get twelve vold and adapted. This is all just I have twelve
41:24
old available right at the TV and I can just plug it all in.
41:29
Um, So when can I come stay with you? Now? Maybe this
41:32
summer we can make a trip out what like were we want to travel?
41:36
So you know we could look at the campus spot in Colorado? Right,
41:38
you know it's like, yeah, we stayed just north of Denver when we
41:43
we bought our first camper in twenty twenty and we turned it around and went
41:45
out west and on our way back through we stopped just north of Denver.
41:51
I don't even remember where. We stayed Fort Collins or something like that,
41:54
and then drove in and had a lunch with Justin and child in the camp
42:00
or stuff, and then drove the rest lay back. Have you been looking
42:04
in uh? Because starlink obviously you want to have Internet wherever you're at.
42:07
Would starlink be a kind of a solution for you, Yeah, if we
42:13
were going to be more remote off the grid, right, if we were
42:15
going to be doing living in it or something. Right. But you know,
42:20
when we traveled out west and in our travels where we go, we're
42:23
never outside of majority of cell coverage, right. We might have low cell
42:29
coverage or something, right, Um, but if we needed to, I
42:32
could just get you know, a flag you know, a flagpole with a
42:37
with a five G repeater or something on it and get a little bit boost,
42:39
a little bit of a boost that way. But I would never Maybe
42:43
my parents have looked into starlink because they're doing a lot more motor home traveling.
42:45
Yeah, but starlink also has kind of They were allowing people they had
42:52
the home stations to take them and use them mobile, right, But then
42:54
they separated it. They separated the plans, so you can't the base station
43:00
and then they have the mobile, right, So you can't use one for
43:04
both or one. You can't interchange them. You have to have both or
43:07
one or the other. And if you don't, Yeah, it's it's a
43:10
weird thing for starlake. So for those listening that have ever thought I want
43:15
to I want to get an RV and I want to travel. You know,
43:19
um, like what you're doing. Are there websites that you've been able
43:22
to use to kind of help in that experience when you're traveling, like finding
43:25
do you do that beforehand? You book? Okay, we're gonna go to
43:29
this place, We're gonna park there and stay there. Oh yeah, there's
43:31
there's tons of websites to use. Um. And one of the ones that
43:37
I really like is called Harvest Hosts, which is a where a member we're
43:40
members of that and it's it's Harvest Hosts is a collection of businesses, wineries,
43:50
golf courses, things that have large parking lots or space and they say,
43:55
hey, we have a parking lot. So if you're traveling through and
44:00
you need to stop for the night, just pull into our parking lots.
44:02
There a parking lot, have dinner here. You know, you pay fourteen
44:07
bucks a night or whatever or how they charge. They just they just ask
44:10
that you patron the business, right right, So you just pull in their
44:15
parking lot. Some of them, you know, and it's grown significantly since
44:20
we started using it. So if some places actually have sites now. Some
44:23
places have hook up some people. Sometimes it's just you pull into the parking
44:27
lot, you stay in the parking lot overnight, right, right. But
44:30
sometimes you can go and you know, play around to golf and you get
44:31
to stay in the parking lot for free or stuff like that. So it's
44:35
called Harvest Host. It's an app. But what's cool about that too is
44:38
that also it's important to be able to know where you can dump your septic.
44:47
On this site, you can find locations that allow you to do that.
44:53
Right most of the times. You know, if you're going to a
44:55
state park, obviously that's included. But if you're going and you're just traveling
44:59
and you're staying at these different places, you just kind of need to know
45:02
where you can do that for free. Sometimes it's not free. Sometimes you
45:06
get to pay a fee that kind of stuff. But I also included in
45:09
that that'd be a lot of fun to do. All right, We got
45:12
to take another quick break, but when we come back, justin it's kind
45:15
a little info about AI. We talk about AI and it's becoming more and
45:20
more the buzz. We'll talk more about that when we come back. I'm
45:22
Andy Taylor, I'm Seanda Weird and I'm Justin. Let me find us on
45:27
the web at tech talk radio dot com. We'll be right back now back
45:30
to TikTok Radio. Welcome to tech talk Radio today. We're driving. Excuse
45:37
me, hold on, I'm trying to do a chat GPP intro here right
45:39
right. I've made this because listen, welcome to tech talk Radio Today.
45:44
We're diving into the electrifying world of AI, where developers are racing to create
45:47
the ultimate intelligence. But beware as we explore the dangerous possibility that our quest
45:52
for the perfect AI could unleash a sentient force wait eager to overpower humanity rather
46:00
than aid it. Stay tuned for a gripping conversation on AI's potential dark side
46:06
minute right here on tech talk Radio. He wrote that AI actually wrote that
46:10
that's actually kind of scary. Yeah, yeah, hey, I wrote that.
46:14
I told it to write me a five fifteen second intro. And I
46:16
want to introduce the topic of AI and the race, the arms race that
46:21
we're having to create the best AI and how it can really honestly maybe be
46:25
a bad thing for humanity. And speaking of that, I mean there this
46:30
last week there was a major major event that happened. Jeffrey Hinton. You
46:36
probably don't know the name Jeffrey Hinton, but he has been called the godfather
46:39
of AI. He actually has now confirmed as of last week he's left his
46:45
role at Google last week because he's concerned about AI. This arms race that
46:52
I mentioned people they want to create the best AI and they're not concerned about
46:57
what could possibly mean for humanity at large. And he says basically, um,
47:04
he's talking about other things like um uh. He he left Google so
47:07
he could speak freely about the risks of AI, rather than because of a
47:13
desire to criticize Google specifically. He's not trying to criticize Google, but he's
47:16
just talking about the dangers of AI. Um. It's uh, there's a
47:22
lot of stuff going on here. I mean there's a lot of big tech
47:25
wigs. I mean even Elon Musk and other people. They're talking about we
47:30
need to slow down the development of AI. AI has become this new buzzword.
47:36
I mean, it has become the new big thing. Everybody wants to
47:37
talk about AI. They want to put AI in everything, They want to
47:40
put AI and everything, and it's it's it's it's dangerous. I mean,
47:45
one wrong move on a programmer's side. They could literally program an AI to
47:52
become sentient and seek power, and God forbid this AI somehow gets control of
48:00
nuclear weapons or something like that, because you know, I mean think about
48:05
it. You go back to like what Hollywood AI terminator, Skynet, the
48:09
end of humanity the roar. I mean, yeah, well wargames wasn't as
48:15
a much darker and wasn't was AI the big computer? Yeah? Or how
48:22
yes? Yeah? How? But see the thing is I mean I look
48:25
at it more like Skynet really honestly, I mean, it is seeking to
48:30
destroy humanity. And that's kind of what they're saying, is you guys gotta
48:36
be careful. You guys got to slow down a little bit here. Yeah.
48:38
I was telling a friend about that and that, you know, their
48:40
concerns and and how we're seeing AI being used, and they said, we'll
48:44
just pull the plug. I don't think it'll be as easy as no,
48:47
because there's too much money and it's a corporate greed. I mean it's literally
48:51
it's make this possible so we can make as much money off of it as
48:54
possible, with disregard for what it actually means for humanity. Well you and
49:00
you look at the long term effects justin we've already seen newspapers, uh,
49:05
magazines already laying off writers because honestly, you can have a you can have
49:09
a paragraph driven driven television commentators. I've seen it used AI where they replicate
49:17
somebody the mouth works perfectly, it looks well, there is something uncanny about
49:22
it, as as Sean as he was uncanny Valley, but even voice.
49:27
And what scares me is the ability to create a world event with a world
49:31
leader that would be broadcast to get us to have a reaction. And that
49:37
scares me. That's that's huge. I mean, speaking of audio and stuff
49:42
like that, there was they used AI to generate a not one, not
49:46
two, not three, but multiple fake songs by Drake. Drake the the
49:52
hip hop artist that did it with Beatles this week Yeah they did with the
49:57
Beatles. They did it with Drake and featuring the weekend. Uh you know,
50:00
not not the weekends on Saturday Sunday, but the weekend as the rap
50:04
artist, the pop artist whatever, ladies and gentlemen, the weekend pop artist.
50:07
Yeah, the weekend. Yeah. Um, but people didn't know.
50:09
They were like, oh my God, the new Drake and Weekend track just
50:12
dropped. No, it didn't, it was AI. AI made it.
50:16
Now. The one thing is we haven't figured out yet. I posted this
50:21
on my Facebook page a couple of days ago or whatever, but there was
50:23
like a creepy AI video about they used AI to generate a pizza commercial.
50:31
Have you seen that? Sean? Yes, it's Oh my god, it
50:36
is. It is horrendous. It's so creepy. I mean the people aren't
50:38
even looking at the camera. Their eyes are like all crazy all over the
50:42
screen, their mouths, they're moving in unnatural ways. Um, it just
50:46
it doesn't make any sense at all, but it is a darn good first
50:51
attempt at trying to figure out AI video creation to make something out of nothing
50:58
and so pretty. I mean, we've already seen static images. Remember the
51:02
Pope and the Balenciaga Yeah, uh, everybody thought that was real. Yeah.
51:07
Well how about this for those that didn't hear it, this was done
51:12
with voice AI and this Well, when I need to get the latest in
51:15
tech, I listened to Justin and Sean and Andy on tech talk radio.
51:21
I mean again, you could, Lord, you could take that voice,
51:24
replicate that and say any President Biden. That was supposed to be you know,
51:29
President Biden. And again that was easy as me saying it into the
51:34
computer and it coming out with that voice. I need him to be saying
51:37
Pepperoni hug Spot all right, I will, I will put that's the name
51:42
of the name hu. What can people do? I say, people learn
51:50
it? I say people should use chat GPT and learn what it's all about
51:54
and learn how to use it because a lot of people try it and they
51:58
don't understand it, but then you learned how powerful it is. Most a
52:01
lot of jobs right now, I mean, god, this is crazy.
52:05
Is how many jobs right now are actually hiring specifically for people that have AI
52:10
experience, chat GPT experience, how to navigate, how to use chat GPT.
52:15
They're hiring people specifically for that role. Yeah, that's how crazy it's
52:21
becoming already and it's not even been a year and this is this is this
52:24
crazy. I mean, I can't even imagine what another year is gonna look
52:28
like. So where's the best way to find out about what's going on in
52:30
AI? I mean, honestly, we'll talk about it when it comes up.
52:35
I say, I tell people go to a open AI dot com and
52:37
you can sign up for free que Well okay, yeah you if you want
52:40
to try it, yeah, sure, go to go to yeah open ai
52:44
and sign up for a chat GBT. If you want to learn about what's
52:46
going on, I would say reddit. There's a there's a subreddit called futurology.
52:52
Um that's a really good subreddit and that talks about everything AI related and
52:58
what's happening. That's where I learned about all the stuff that I just told
53:00
you about, right, um, So yeah, I just I'd say reddit
53:02
in future ology Subreddit. We'll see if we can put those links up.
53:06
At tech Talk Radio quick Break, we come back. New game that Sean
53:08
is very excited about. We'll tell you about that coming up next. I'm
53:12
Andy Taylor, I'm Sean de Weird, and I'm justin. Let me remember
53:15
don't go a bike writing. We'll be right back and now back to tech
53:21
Talk Radio. Hey goo by the Science guy here whatever I am listening to
53:25
the radio, especially Tech Talk Radio Party quick video game up dates. All
53:34
right, if you're a Zelda fan, Zelda Breath the New Breath of the
53:37
Wild. Breath of the Wild too. Here's the Kingdom has been fully leaked
53:42
online. Whoa really Now, it's just like Super Mario Brothers ending up on
53:45
Twitter the whole movie. Physical physical copies got sent out more than two weeks
53:50
early, and it took less than twenty four hours for them to be uploaded
53:52
fully playable as PC emulation. Wow. Now, how could something like that
53:58
happen? Because people are there's there's there's tons of rumors about it. But
54:01
it's like, you know, people are mad at Nintendo. They're mad at
54:05
Nintendo because of the hacker, Greg Bowser. But this guy hacked Nintendo and
54:09
they basically forced him to pay, so he's gonna be paying Nintendo for the
54:13
rest of his life. He spent a bunch of time in jail and he
54:15
has to pay them for the rest of his life. So yeah, hackers
54:19
are mad. We're gonna People have already beat the game. Wow, literally
54:23
the entire game is out. There's videos people were streaming about a Twitch and
54:28
got instantly removed from Twitch. Like Nintendo, they will come after you so
54:31
hard, so swift, so furious, relentless Nina Nintendo Ninja. Well,
54:38
I mean this is their property. There's her ip. I'd be I'd be
54:42
upset too. We're gonna make hand over fist money on this game. Yeah.
54:45
I also have the new World Warcraft patches out today, so go play.
54:47
All right whatever the other game, what is it called again, Breath
