Speaker 2: One one jr R.
Speaker 1: Orlando's rock station Lynchin Taco Good Morning. On Thursdays, we
Speaker 1: do this segment with some tech news we've dubbed tech
Speaker 1: it Out. We have a sponsor this morning, Taco Bob.
Speaker 2: Yes, pick your ticket Thursday and our JARR Instagram page.
Speaker 2: I just opened it up and I see that some
Speaker 2: people jumped on it. Multiple winners when we do these.

Speaker 2: oh one one w j r R. You can win
Speaker 2: tickets to all the upcoming JARR shows, maybe some creed tickets.
Speaker 1: The officials here in the United States are not the
Speaker 1: only country that has TikTok concerns. The government of Canada
Speaker 1: has ordered TikTok to cease operations. Physical operations in their
Speaker 1: country still be able to use the TikTok app in
Speaker 1: can but all TikTok physical business operations wind them down,
Speaker 1: shut them down, get outs all right. This coming under
Speaker 1: a national security review in the Investment Canada Acts. I
Speaker 1: guess they found some potential concerns there as to what
Speaker 1: they might be up to.
Speaker 2: Few red flags, not just people doing zany stuff.
Speaker 1: So the again, don't mishear us. The app is still
Speaker 1: okay in Canada, they just don't want any physical operations
Speaker 1: from TikTok there. Australia has proposed what they are dubbing
Speaker 1: a world leading ban on social media for all children
Speaker 1: under the age of sixteen.
Speaker 2: Again, how are you going to make that happen? Just
Speaker 2: like when they've talked about it here where you had
Speaker 2: to have parental permission.
Speaker 1: Australia is trialing an age verification system them to assist
Speaker 1: in blocking children from accessing social media platforms as part
Speaker 1: of a range of measures that includes some of the
Speaker 1: toughest controls imposed by any country to date.
Speaker 2: So is this gonna be kind of like when we
Speaker 2: were kids, how you'd hope that you could get your
Speaker 2: brother's ID and that you look tolike, you know, your
Speaker 2: older brother for fake ID. Are they gonna be doing
Speaker 2: that to get on TikTok in Australia? Like, hey man, Isaac,
Speaker 2: if that's an Australian name, Isaac, I need to use
Speaker 2: your your your fake I D. How are they gonna
Speaker 2: verify this?
Speaker 1: Is it's just another example of you know, forbidden fruit,
Speaker 1: which just makes it desired that much more. I always
Speaker 1: whenever hear stuff that This reminds me like trying to
Speaker 1: watch through the scrambled squiggly lines of the pay channels
Speaker 1: at the dirty late night movies when you were you.
Speaker 2: Know, yeah girl on the little they went and you'd
Speaker 2: go straight to think it was twenty one was HBO,
Speaker 2: where you'd be looking through the squigglies.
Speaker 1: It would straighten out briefly like, oh, I know, come on, guys,
Speaker 1: yeah saw.
Speaker 2: Speaking of movies.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: And now now you just open up a regular website
Speaker 2: and it's it's not even porn related. It's dirty or
Speaker 2: stuff in the ads, you know.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: The new Robert Zemeckis directed film that stars Tom Hanks
Speaker 1: called Here is Uh Is Out. It is one of
Speaker 1: the first Hollywood full length features built around AI powered
Speaker 1: visual effects. Rather than hire multiple actors to portray Tom
Speaker 1: Hanks's character as he ages throughout the years, AI was
Speaker 1: used to depict that on screen, start to finish.
Speaker 2: Again, just taking people's jobs. Maybe I'm just the layman here,
Speaker 2: but I'm that is the part of AI. I don't
Speaker 2: like where it's Yes, there's just a lot of a
Speaker 2: lot of potential to eliminate to phasing people out.
Speaker 1: The Polish radio station just this week, I don't let
Speaker 1: me guess it's all AI. They did an experiment with
Speaker 1: AI hosts and the audience lost their minds and they decided, okay,
Speaker 1: we're not going really all right.
Speaker 2: Let the ostrich Bob take his head out of the
Speaker 2: sand for that one. I do want to hear it out.
Speaker 1: With the touchscreen, touchscreens back with knobs and buttons. Tactile
Speaker 1: controls are back in vogue. You're starting to see this
Speaker 1: more and more on devices, car equipment, washing machines, things
Speaker 1: like that. A lot of the touchscreen mania has seemed
Speaker 1: to have faded, and people just liked the ability to know, hey,
Speaker 1: I've actually clicked this and it should be going on
Speaker 1: or off.
Speaker 2: Uh huh.
Speaker 1: Interesting. What's old is new again?
Speaker 2: And especially in cars, remember because you had a story
Speaker 2: in Technology and Tech it out like probably three months ago,
Speaker 2: how they were talking about phasing them out because people
Speaker 2: paying attention to them, there's more to break.
Speaker 1: You look now at a lot of the newer car
Speaker 1: I'm talking like the real new it's a combination of
Speaker 1: touch and or buttons, which giving you really your choice there,
Speaker 1: which I guess that could be the best of both worlds.
Speaker 1: T Mobile has just broken a world record when it
Speaker 1: comes to upload speeds via a five G wireless network.
Speaker 1: They just ran a series of tests at SOFI Stadium,
Speaker 1: you know, the Football State brand new facility out there
Speaker 1: in California where the Rams and the Chargers play. They
Speaker 1: have achieved new speeds when it comes to the upload
Speaker 1: side of things on a wireless network. The fastest five
Speaker 1: G upload speed ever recorded in the world two point
Speaker 1: two gigabits per second on their five G network, utilizing
Speaker 1: technology they call five G dual connectivity. Now you're thinking, well,
Speaker 1: it's most people are concerned with download speeds, which have
Speaker 1: gotten pretty good for whatever provider you use, but on
Speaker 1: the upload side of things not so much so, which
Speaker 1: presents issues when you have large crowds where you might
Speaker 1: be trying to stream video or send stuff out or so.
Speaker 1: That's interesting to see the speeds are able to accomplish
Speaker 1: in a very large, congested setting on their network. So
Speaker 1: obviously more to come on that from T Mobile. That's
Speaker 1: so far place holds so many people. Scientists at the
Speaker 1: University of California have found a simple way to perhaps
Speaker 1: cut down on mosquito born illness, make the Mosquitos stop
Speaker 1: having sex by turning them deaf.
Speaker 2: Oh, because is it the buzzing that makes them like male?
Speaker 2: Male insects that are deaf struggle to mate and breed. Huh.
Speaker 1: So by altering you know, genetic pathways, they've been able to.
Speaker 2: Cause deaf mosquitoes. I just don't make mosquitoes. Well, I know.
Speaker 1: When you're messing this the whole stuff, when you start
Speaker 1: screwing with nature and stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 1: There's gonna be a Netflix movie on it sooner than
Speaker 1: you think.
Speaker 2: Of course, it'll be all AI. It'll be AI crickets,
Speaker 2: a mosquitos, like the cicada over if you had deaf cicadas,
Speaker 2: think of how loud those things could be, you know,
Speaker 2: the ones that go raw.
Speaker 1: Mute cicadas would be better. Oh good, it would be
Speaker 1: no noise. They just be everywhere with no noise. My
Speaker 1: favorite tech related headline of the week, Yes, a headline
Speaker 1: of the week.
Speaker 2: Down though, it's it's just your.
Speaker 1: Air fryer may be spying on you.
Speaker 2: I'm telling you how much you're eating or.
Speaker 1: No, no, taking your personal data and passing it along
Speaker 1: to third parties. Uh, do you really need to connect
Speaker 1: your air frer to the Internet.
Speaker 2: Some do, maybe if people are going out and they
Speaker 2: want to air fry something for right when they get home.
Speaker 2: But even come on.
