- 0:00Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but I sit in the
- 0:01Speaker 1: front seat of the car so often and I wonder
- 0:03Speaker 1: what am I going to listen to today, and I'll
- 0:04Speaker 1: go no, no, no, no no. When I started out
- 0:08Speaker 1: in twenty twelve with my podcasting, I knew then I
- 0:12Speaker 1: was going to build a network because I believe in
- 0:14Speaker 1: the power of choice, especially when it comes to what
- 0:17Speaker 1: we're listening to. It's called on demand. I'm not a freak,
- 0:20Speaker 1: but I'm part of that process of giving you the
- 0:23Speaker 1: power of choice. It's called Arrow dot Net. Not just
- 0:26Speaker 1: one podcast, It's a network, a r roet net. Enjoy
- 0:31Speaker 1: your exploration when it's extremely difficult to make up your mind.
- 0:35Speaker 1: I mean, come on, having that power of choice can
- 0:37Speaker 1: actually weaken a person's heart. On this episode, we're going
- 0:41Speaker 1: to explore our choice to play the card game spot It.
- 0:45Speaker 1: Have you done it before? Why is there always a
- 0:47Speaker 1: match card? How is it even possible? And is it
- 0:50Speaker 1: a good choice to trust your digital tools? My name
- 0:54Speaker 1: is Arrow. Life is a series of choices. Who decides
- 0:58Speaker 1: when you're not making the right choice? Is it a
- 1:00Speaker 1: fear of going wrong? The greatest lessons in life are
- 1:03Speaker 1: often lost inside hidden away attempts. And concepts. Well, it's
- 1:07Speaker 1: time to open your heart. Having that power of choice
- 1:11Speaker 1: is actually your daily gift. On this highway, we're gonna
- 1:15Speaker 1: learn how to trust mirages. What is the choice? Oh?
- 1:19Speaker 1: How about making that choice to create and play a
- 1:22Speaker 1: brand new card game. In fact, it's probably not even
- 1:25Speaker 1: brand new. It was to me. It's called spot it.
- 1:29Speaker 1: How can you always have a match on each card?
- 1:33Speaker 1: Spot it? Here's the thing. It's a global hangout. Except
- 1:37Speaker 1: in other countries it's called dobble, not spot it. The
- 1:41Speaker 1: idea first arrive thanks to designer Denise Planchof. Its origin
- 1:47Speaker 1: is France. The goal is to slap down a card
- 1:50Speaker 1: and be the first to spot the match. But here's
- 1:54Speaker 1: a thing. There's something in common here on all the cards.
- 1:57Speaker 1: How is that even possible? Denise made the choice to
- 2:01Speaker 1: invite mathematical concepts into the creation. Why does it work?
- 2:06Speaker 1: Every symbol is reused across multiple cards, but in a
- 2:10Speaker 1: very controlled way. It ensures that no matter which two
- 2:14Speaker 1: cards are laid down, there's going to be a true match.
- 2:19Speaker 1: Gamers call Spotted or Dobble a very interesting version of
- 2:23Speaker 1: two other very popular games. We're talking about, Sudoku and
- 2:27Speaker 1: Rubik's cube. It appears to many as being this magical trick,
- 2:31Speaker 1: but underneath it's strict math, keeping all the cards constant
- 2:36Speaker 1: and no, not all card games require math to create.
- 2:39Speaker 1: When that happens, human behavior matters and randomness plays a
- 2:44Speaker 1: huge wide role in your life. Now here's the thing.
- 2:48Speaker 1: When we shuffle the cards, science says we're actually messing
- 2:52Speaker 1: around with mathematics. Ooh la la, Hey coming up next,
- 2:57Speaker 1: Is it a good choice to trust our digital devices? Hey?
- 3:03Speaker 1: Thanks for coming back to the choice. Is it a
- 3:05Speaker 1: good choice to trust our digital tools such as Alexa,
- 3:09Speaker 1: Grock and Gemini. Wow, what a shocker in this day
- 3:13Speaker 1: of harsh Ai. We have to use disclaimers as podcasters.
- 3:18Speaker 1: I mean, studies show that we should trust Alexa and others,
- 3:22Speaker 1: but only if we treat them like assistant authorities. People
- 3:26Speaker 1: tend to get in a lot of trouble when blindedly
- 3:29Speaker 1: being led by digital Here's where Gemini and Groc score
- 3:34Speaker 1: big in human trust. Answering questions, drafting fresh content for
- 3:40Speaker 1: work or at home. Plus, it's a daily convenience through
- 3:43Speaker 1: its hookups to a lot of other devices inside your
- 3:47Speaker 1: home or business. Alexa should be seen as a smart intern.
- 3:52Speaker 1: It's fast, helpful, but like an intern in human form,
- 3:56Speaker 1: Groc and others need supervision. Here's that's where it gets
- 4:01Speaker 1: really weird and maybe wrong. Alexa and her digital cousins
- 4:05Speaker 1: are wrong with their answers. Forty five percent of the time.
- 4:10Speaker 1: Digital replies can be made up facts, outdated news, or
- 4:14Speaker 1: just a bad source of information. Those digital children such
- 4:19Speaker 1: as Alexa, Grock, and Gemini sound confident when they're sharing
- 4:22Speaker 1: the information, and it's wrong. Trust these AI communicators. It's
- 4:29Speaker 1: going in the wrong direction and it's making the wrong decisions.
- 4:33Speaker 1: You've got to double check everything, fact check yourself before
- 4:37Speaker 1: releasing it on social media, use multiple sources, and don't
- 4:42Speaker 1: share private data. It is a choice. I'm Errow, and
- 4:46Speaker 1: that's what I was writing while the sun was waking
- 4:48Speaker 1: up on a brilliant new day.
