WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:03.279 The following program is produced by the tech Talk Radio Network. 2 00:00:03.279 --> 00:00:06.200 I don't want to buy just the absolute primo system 3 00:00:06.200 --> 00:00:08.640 out today. That usually wastes money. So I'll be doing 4 00:00:08.679 --> 00:00:12.359 some digital photography, maybe some video editing. Don't do any 5 00:00:12.400 --> 00:00:14.240 gaming at all, so I don't have that demand on 6 00:00:14.279 --> 00:00:16.719 the computer. It's wondering what you guys would suggest, either 7 00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.879 in brands or just in general speed. And where do 8 00:00:19.920 --> 00:00:21.760 you go to get the maximum bang for the buck 9 00:00:21.839 --> 00:00:22.239 right now? 10 00:00:22.359 --> 00:00:30.199 Sounds like you want to max. Welcome to another episode 11 00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:32.640 of tech Talk Radio. I'm Andy Taylor. 12 00:00:32.799 --> 00:00:36.640 Bye, I'm Sean de Weird, I'm Matt Jones, Dan, I'm slick. 13 00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:40.799 And Justin is out today, something about going to the mountains. 14 00:00:41.280 --> 00:00:42.960 You went camping or something like that. 15 00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:46.159 He went camping, And so far, every picture that I've 16 00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:48.799 seen of Eric has has not shown a please face 17 00:00:48.960 --> 00:00:52.119 to be out camping. Almongst the great outdoors. 18 00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:55.000 You know, it's hard to convince kids with all the 19 00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:57.880 technology we have today that being out in the outgrade 20 00:00:57.920 --> 00:00:59.399 outdoors is a fun thing to do. 21 00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:04.719 Look a stick, Look it's another stick. 22 00:01:05.159 --> 00:01:07.680 Hey, I really enjoy camping, so I take offense. 23 00:01:08.120 --> 00:01:10.920 Yeah, and now have you taken the kids out camping, though, 24 00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:12.760 Do they appreciate the. 25 00:01:12.719 --> 00:01:15.599 Experience as much as they can? For me three and 26 00:01:15.680 --> 00:01:21.280 six months old, Oh yeah, so we took So I 27 00:01:21.319 --> 00:01:23.480 grew up camping, right. My mom was camping when she's 28 00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:25.719 praying with me. I've been camping my entire life. So 29 00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:29.719 we went camping. When Cad was pregnant with Max, we 30 00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:34.200 went camping. So like three weeks after Max was born, 31 00:01:34.680 --> 00:01:37.200 two weeks after, Daniel's like, we've been camping. We camp 32 00:01:37.200 --> 00:01:37.560 all the time. 33 00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:40.920 You're not how many times have you been camping? 34 00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:44.239 Like I'm gonna say, I think honestly that that can 35 00:01:44.319 --> 00:01:49.079 qualify as camping too. One is early teens in Albuquerque 36 00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:53.319 near the Rio Grande boy Scouts and then once uh, 37 00:01:54.120 --> 00:01:56.640 some crew we went from power fourteen fifty we went 38 00:01:56.680 --> 00:01:58.879 up to I want to say Mount Lemon, I don't. 39 00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:01.159 We went up to one in our mount here whatever, 40 00:02:01.200 --> 00:02:02.120 whatever one we got. 41 00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:04.439 It's like a radio promotion for no. 42 00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:07.760 We're just one weekend, you know, somebody did their last 43 00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:10.479 their last shift of the afternoon and we were hanging 44 00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:14.479 around somebody's house, uh, and we were like, hey, you know, 45 00:02:14.560 --> 00:02:17.479 and even our wives and a girlfriends are there. This 46 00:02:17.639 --> 00:02:20.199 was amazing. We pulled this off. You know what, let's 47 00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:22.319 just go camping and we took off. 48 00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:26.439 Wow, let us Really they thought you were never coming back. Yeah. 49 00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:28.960 I do have a question for Sean, serious question. So 50 00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:31.360 when you go camping being a tech guy, you know, 51 00:02:31.439 --> 00:02:33.800 I do envy anyone that could go camping. I do 52 00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:36.280 envy because that's I mean, that's literally living off the land. 53 00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:37.560 I really do. I wish I could do it. I 54 00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:39.400 wish I knew. I wish I knew how to do it. 55 00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:41.319 I wish I had the skills. But when you do 56 00:02:41.439 --> 00:02:43.919 go camping, what tech are you taking with you? 57 00:02:44.240 --> 00:02:46.240 So we've talked about this on the shelf, right, So 58 00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:50.560 I've done a variety of camping, right, I've done ted camping, 59 00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:54.039 I've done camper camping, I've done our V motor home camping. 60 00:02:54.039 --> 00:02:56.919 I've done I've done all the gamut. Right, But in 61 00:02:57.000 --> 00:02:58.879 terms of tech, right, it just pens. It depends on 62 00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:01.560 what I'm doing, where I'm going, how much you can carry, 63 00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:03.840 how much you want to take with you. If we're 64 00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:06.120 going right now, if I were to pack up my camper, 65 00:03:06.439 --> 00:03:08.280 the technology I would take with me would be I 66 00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:10.599 have my camera bank with my two dieselars, in it 67 00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:12.960 because I want to. If I'm going camping, I'm probably 68 00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:15.800 gonna be shooting some nighttime stuff. I'm taking, you know, 69 00:03:15.879 --> 00:03:18.800 my power inverter so I can be powered and plug 70 00:03:18.879 --> 00:03:20.680 into the solar and charge it. I don't have a drone, 71 00:03:20.719 --> 00:03:22.599 so I'm not taking one of those. And then I 72 00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:25.159 had done this when we went traveling out west, just 73 00:03:25.199 --> 00:03:27.639 in case the weather got bad and we were stuck inside. 74 00:03:28.039 --> 00:03:31.639 I built my own mobile flex server on a Raspberry 75 00:03:31.680 --> 00:03:35.280 Pie and a two terabyte hard drive with a tp 76 00:03:35.520 --> 00:03:39.960 link mini AP so it's a single It's literally a 77 00:03:40.159 --> 00:03:42.319 two inch by two inch q that it's the ext 78 00:03:42.360 --> 00:03:43.879 point with one E threat point in it. So I 79 00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:46.400 turn it on, plug in the pie boom flex server 80 00:03:46.520 --> 00:03:48.240 on the goal bad, it all runs off. It all 81 00:03:48.319 --> 00:03:49.080 runs off twelve. 82 00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:51.319 So you get on the great outdoors and you watch content. 83 00:03:52.680 --> 00:03:55.039 Hey, I will say when we when we went up 84 00:03:55.080 --> 00:03:57.080 to the up the Upperts Liver for those you don't 85 00:03:57.080 --> 00:03:59.159 live the Michigan then is a Michigan and it rained 86 00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:02.120 for like a data half and Max were stuck inside 87 00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:04.879 and wanted to watch Lightning McQueen on YouTube because it's 88 00:04:04.879 --> 00:04:06.840 pretty wants to watch right now? Yeah, I was able 89 00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:10.159 to rip some of those videos from YouTube futrom my 90 00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:10.800 plex server. 91 00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:11.960 Perfect. Yeah. 92 00:04:12.039 --> 00:04:14.479 So then I just pull out the iPad, connect to 93 00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:18.240 the wire, the TP link, and I've got access to 94 00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:20.279 all those videos that I've put on there for him 95 00:04:20.319 --> 00:04:20.639 to watch. 96 00:04:20.920 --> 00:04:23.920 Oh that's cool. It keeps them entertained, so at least, yeah, 97 00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:24.680 in that situation. 98 00:04:24.800 --> 00:04:27.519 So so, yeah, so I take a lot of photography 99 00:04:27.600 --> 00:04:30.480 tech with me. Right, I'm still pretty heavily into analog 100 00:04:30.639 --> 00:04:32.639 film shooting, so I had I took I take my 101 00:04:32.720 --> 00:04:35.800 Minolta X seven hundred with me. I have my Polaroid camera. 102 00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:38.920 I've got probably like seven cameras that I take with me. 103 00:04:39.040 --> 00:04:42.920 Right, so you're still doing you're still developing film. 104 00:04:43.759 --> 00:04:46.920 I ship it off to Indie Film Labs, which is 105 00:04:46.959 --> 00:04:49.560 about ten to twelve dollars per role, depending on the 106 00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:50.560 type of film you send them. 107 00:04:50.560 --> 00:04:53.600 But it has a real different looks Like, well, a 108 00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.160 couple a few weeks ago, we took a look at 109 00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:58.519 some of the photos that Sean had taken and it 110 00:04:58.680 --> 00:05:02.000 just actually, these are photos you had developed that were 111 00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:03.439 what twenty years old? 112 00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:06.519 I mean yeah, so there were So I shot a 113 00:05:06.560 --> 00:05:09.600 whole two new roles of film that were probably the 114 00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:12.399 roles of film were probably twenty years old. But then 115 00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:15.560 I also had a disposable film camera that had pictures 116 00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:17.519 on it from I don't even know when, Yeah, and 117 00:05:17.560 --> 00:05:19.480 I just shipped that in and they developed it, and 118 00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:23.319 that one had been the film had had some degradation. 119 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:25.040 I don't know if it was mold or whatever, but 120 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:28.480 they didn't come back looking super great. But the stuff 121 00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:32.040 I shot on my I'm Minolta, the two roles looked 122 00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:33.959 really good and I got some, like some of my 123 00:05:34.000 --> 00:05:36.439 favorite pictures from that trip around that from that camera 124 00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:37.439 versus my DSLR. 125 00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:40.000 You know, it's funny if you think about it, though, Sean, 126 00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:45.439 with the pictures that we take with film, it's a 127 00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:47.720 different look. You know, now you look at it. AI 128 00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:49.639 is going to be able to take that and you 129 00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:52.240 could tell it. You can have AI apply a filter 130 00:05:52.920 --> 00:05:55.800 that would say a code chrome look, or you know, 131 00:05:55.879 --> 00:05:57.560 an early film look. 132 00:05:57.759 --> 00:06:01.319 I have a philosophy in my photography that I do. 133 00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:04.639 I don't shoot to edit and post there you go, right. 134 00:06:04.839 --> 00:06:06.680 I shoot to post, like if I were to put 135 00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:08.759 it on the internet, like say shoot the post, I 136 00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:12.319 take a picture. I do very minimal editing, right, I 137 00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:16.319 shoot in raw on my DSLR. So yeah, okay, the 138 00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:18.720 raw images look pretty flat, right, They're meant to be 139 00:06:18.959 --> 00:06:22.680 enhanced by bringing out the contrast, the highs the lows, 140 00:06:22.759 --> 00:06:25.560 a little bit of trauma, you know. But I don't 141 00:06:25.560 --> 00:06:28.839 do any other post editing. I have never gotten into it. 142 00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:30.639 I'm not good at it because I've never spent the 143 00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:33.279 time to do it, because that takes away the value 144 00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:37.160 of the arts. To me, AI is taking the human 145 00:06:37.240 --> 00:06:40.160 experience out of being a human being. That's my philosophy 146 00:06:40.240 --> 00:06:42.879 on AI. There are benefits to AI, but that is 147 00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:45.879 to me, the biggest downfall of this is that the 148 00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:50.079 human experience needs to create things. We need to create things. 149 00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:52.800 We need to do things that take our mind and 150 00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:57.000 put emotion to them and put them on a medium. Drawings, photography, art, music, 151 00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:59.399 et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. If you start taking 152 00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:01.600 that away from people, I don't know what that's going 153 00:07:01.680 --> 00:07:03.560 to do. AI hasn't been around for a whole, you know, 154 00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:06.160 a whole long time. But other things that have taken 155 00:07:06.160 --> 00:07:09.360 away creativity people have you seen terrible things happen? 156 00:07:10.160 --> 00:07:12.800 And I agree with you, Sean, but you look at 157 00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:17.000 how technology has progressed when we were shooting film and 158 00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:20.240 you would get it processed and there was an excitement about, 159 00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:22.600 you know, opening up and seeing the photos. And then 160 00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:26.079 photoshop comes along or corral even you could do things 161 00:07:26.120 --> 00:07:28.879 with it, you could manipulate and then walk them comes 162 00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:31.560 out with these great tablets to make it easier. And 163 00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:34.040 now we're at the stage where, yeah, we've done a 164 00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:36.360 lot with that, and there's some great photoshop artists that 165 00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:39.079 are out there that have taken photos that they've shot 166 00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:43.920 and enhanced them incredibly using light room and photoshop. But 167 00:07:44.120 --> 00:07:46.639 now we have AI doing it for us. 168 00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:49.319 And don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that the 169 00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:52.680 digital art isn't the thing. Digital art is very much 170 00:07:52.720 --> 00:07:54.279 a thing, right. You see in tons of video games. 171 00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:56.000 There are a lot of great video game art, video 172 00:07:56.040 --> 00:07:58.800 game artists and digital artists that have created beautiful and 173 00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:02.600 engaging and just amazing content. AI is still taking out 174 00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:03.720 the human experience, right. 175 00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:06.639 I'm entirely with Sean on this one. One of the 176 00:08:06.759 --> 00:08:09.480 great quotes that I saw the other day was AI 177 00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:13.480 was supposed to make my work and job easier so 178 00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:17.720 I could focus on my art and craft, not take 179 00:08:17.839 --> 00:08:20.000 my art and craft out of my hands, so I 180 00:08:20.079 --> 00:08:21.319 could only focus on my job. 181 00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:23.959 That's a great quote. Send me that quote wherever you 182 00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:25.639 found it from, said it to me, because whoever wrote 183 00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:26.879 that quote, I want to meet them in person. 184 00:08:26.959 --> 00:08:27.920 I want to copy that too. 185 00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:32.120 Yeah, it's it really does. Like you know, in my 186 00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:34.759 last job, you know, we had AI starting to roll 187 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:38.360 out on you know, any any vendor software. They were like, well, 188 00:08:38.440 --> 00:08:41.600 with our new you know, Charlotte AI component, it was 189 00:08:41.759 --> 00:08:43.639 you know, I could just be like, hey, do this 190 00:08:43.799 --> 00:08:46.159 and that and put these guys in these groups and 191 00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:48.679 let me know what it's all done. And that ask 192 00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:50.919 might have taken me, you know, half an hour normally 193 00:08:51.360 --> 00:08:52.559 I asked it to do it, and it's just like 194 00:08:52.679 --> 00:08:55.559 bit back, all right, I'm done. That's what AI was 195 00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:57.320 supposed to be for. It was supposed to be like, hey, 196 00:08:57.679 --> 00:09:01.600 make our jobs easier, make manufacturing easier. Take us out 197 00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:04.840 of the places that you know, we're spending forty plus 198 00:09:04.919 --> 00:09:07.720 hours a week at so I can go camping, I 199 00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:10.960 can draw, I can do photos to where we don't 200 00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:15.960 have to live to work like we you know, we 201 00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:19.080 we just work becomes a small component of our lives. 202 00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:22.840 So there was actually the CEO of Nvidia equated where 203 00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:26.399 we are with AI to the next Industrial Revolution. I 204 00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:28.960 think we talked about this last show that you know, 205 00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:33.399 the original industrial revolution was because you had before you 206 00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:37.720 didn't have, you know, the standardization of parts. Like people 207 00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:40.440 are like, oh, Henry Ford, creator of the automobile. He 208 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:43.039 was not the creator of the automobile. They were already 209 00:09:43.080 --> 00:09:45.960 making them in Europe well before that. He was the 210 00:09:46.360 --> 00:09:50.639 guy who perfected the assembly line. So every model T 211 00:09:50.879 --> 00:09:54.159 that came off the line was like everyone before, everyone after. 212 00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:56.600 He could just crank it out by volume. We are 213 00:09:56.679 --> 00:10:00.519 now at the technological equivalence of that with AI. Like, 214 00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:04.000 for example, I was applying to jobs today and my 215 00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:06.759 wife was like, hey, you know, I know you normally 216 00:10:06.840 --> 00:10:08.480 don't do it. Make sure you do a cover letter. 217 00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:10.720 I went in to chat GPT and I was like, hey, 218 00:10:11.120 --> 00:10:13.840 here's my resume, here's the link to the job posting. 219 00:10:14.279 --> 00:10:17.039 I need a cover letter, and it would just boom, 220 00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:19.399 here's your cover letter. And it would even pull like, 221 00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:23.120 you know, it's my name, contact information, all that, you know, 222 00:10:23.480 --> 00:10:26.320 hiring manager at, and it's the company and it pulled 223 00:10:26.399 --> 00:10:30.399 the address and everything out of there, populated customized it. 224 00:10:30.679 --> 00:10:33.399 I had six cover letters done in fifteen minutes. 225 00:10:33.919 --> 00:10:34.720 Yeah, okay, cool. 226 00:10:34.799 --> 00:10:36.720 But when you look at the cover letter, what did 227 00:10:36.759 --> 00:10:38.679 you how did you feel about each individual letter? 228 00:10:38.759 --> 00:10:43.080 Though each individual letter was different, customized to the position, 229 00:10:43.559 --> 00:10:47.279 customized to the company, customized to what the company does, 230 00:10:47.679 --> 00:10:50.960 their values, what they're trying to push, what industry they 231 00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:53.639 were in. It was not a boiler plate like if 232 00:10:53.679 --> 00:10:56.559 I done it, I'd had like this boilerplate letter with 233 00:10:56.720 --> 00:10:59.159 like a couple of sentences that I would change in between. 234 00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:01.480 The ball just been like that's good enough, all. 235 00:11:01.399 --> 00:11:02.200 Right, Yeah, that's fine. 236 00:11:02.200 --> 00:11:05.639 I don't do cover letters like I never have this one. 237 00:11:05.720 --> 00:11:07.960 It's just like I'm reading this and I'm like, man, 238 00:11:08.039 --> 00:11:13.399 that's really good. Like that's you start using I'll tell 239 00:11:13.399 --> 00:11:15.159 you I could start using AI more. 240 00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:16.240 Man, this is nice. 241 00:11:16.399 --> 00:11:19.279 It's like there are a lot of benefit right, So 242 00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:21.360 I got to. 243 00:11:21.639 --> 00:11:23.879 I got added on as part of the chat GPT 244 00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:27.360 pilot of Campus in a RAM, so I've been playing 245 00:11:27.440 --> 00:11:30.480 with it at work. There are be like I was 246 00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:33.120 anti AI everything when it first, Like when it was 247 00:11:33.159 --> 00:11:35.159 the rage, right you guys know about that. I was like, no, 248 00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:37.919 I'm not never gonna do chat GPT, not doing it. 249 00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:41.120 But then I was like, how could I It started 250 00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:42.960 coming up where we were doing all this cloud production 251 00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:44.600 and we're doing all this stuff, and how can AI 252 00:11:44.679 --> 00:11:48.200 help us advance the technology in our work? And I 253 00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:51.080 saw value in that. So that's where my focus with 254 00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:53.720 AI is is focusing on how I can use it 255 00:11:53.799 --> 00:11:57.279 to enhance my work experience. I am using it on 256 00:11:57.399 --> 00:12:01.559 a personal level to do some creative storytelling, like you know, 257 00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:04.320 I've done it with my Dungeon and Dragons campaigns where 258 00:12:04.320 --> 00:12:07.399 I've taken the auto transcript and generating a short story format, 259 00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:10.399 which has been awesome. And I've been learning how to 260 00:12:10.840 --> 00:12:14.720 properly prompt the j GPT to give me what I want, 261 00:12:15.279 --> 00:12:18.480 which in turn has helped me prompt it better at 262 00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:20.440 getting the things done I wanted to do for work. 263 00:12:21.080 --> 00:12:26.039 So using AI has been beneficial to me, but I 264 00:12:26.200 --> 00:12:32.120 still am hard pressed to try and do music, photography, 265 00:12:32.840 --> 00:12:36.480 other artworks or like just because it doesn't sit well 266 00:12:36.559 --> 00:12:36.720 with me. 267 00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:39.080 I'll tell you it's been interesting, and some of you 268 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:42.879 know that I've been working with middle school and high 269 00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:48.360 school kids about creating podcasts and the program has been great. 270 00:12:48.440 --> 00:12:50.799 It's worked out really well. And I was talking to 271 00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:53.440 a principal the other day who said, you know, I 272 00:12:53.480 --> 00:12:56.559 would love the idea about possibly you coming in and 273 00:12:56.840 --> 00:13:01.559 teaching them about technology and you know, creating digital technology 274 00:13:02.679 --> 00:13:06.559 and using AI. And I told the principle. I said, 275 00:13:07.120 --> 00:13:10.279 if we were to teach the kids number one AI, 276 00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:15.600 the coursework would change within about five six months. And 277 00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:19.480 the only thing we can teach with AI is how 278 00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:25.000 to summon the AI that they need. Like the problem 279 00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:26.799 a lot of people have when it comes to some 280 00:13:26.919 --> 00:13:28.840 of the AI that's out there and maybe whether it 281 00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:32.480 be gpt DALLY three or some of the others that 282 00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:38.039 are available, is getting the right results by asking the 283 00:13:38.200 --> 00:13:44.519 proper questions. And the better the question, the more streamlined, 284 00:13:44.799 --> 00:13:47.360 the better the result you're going to get. And that's 285 00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:51.919 what some people are not understanding about it. However, I 286 00:13:52.000 --> 00:13:54.039 will tell you and Slick, I know that this will 287 00:13:54.240 --> 00:13:59.080 kind of you. Being from a radio broadcasting background, I 288 00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:02.960 fell down the rabbit. This past week, Google has launched 289 00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:06.960 something new called Notebook LM. It's actually who it's experimental 290 00:14:07.720 --> 00:14:09.399 and if you have a Google account you can try 291 00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:13.240 this experimental AI, which is an AI powered tool that 292 00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:17.879 is designed to help users understand information by summarizing notes 293 00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.399 and sources so you get a bunch of notes, you 294 00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:23.679 throw them into this notebook LM, and you have it 295 00:14:23.840 --> 00:14:28.360 create a synopsis, a summary, or even a couple of 296 00:14:29.000 --> 00:14:32.919 people talking about it like a podcast. That what I 297 00:14:33.000 --> 00:14:37.279 created sounded very similar to what would be morning radio 298 00:14:37.960 --> 00:14:42.399 or maybe even a podcast itself. And again it could help, 299 00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:45.600 they say students and studying. It works by training a 300 00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:49.960 specialized AI in the documents that users upload. THEAI then 301 00:14:50.080 --> 00:14:53.120 becomes an expert on the user's documents that can provide 302 00:14:53.279 --> 00:14:56.559 specific resources. So I'm gonna play a little audio for you. Now. 303 00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:01.120 Remember I took notes and I uploaded them, and these 304 00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:07.279 are two AI people talking about what I had uploaded. 305 00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:09.639 All right, everybody, deep dive time you ready. We've got 306 00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:11.279 a wild mix of stuff to unpack today. 307 00:15:11.399 --> 00:15:13.200 Definitely should be interesting. 308 00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:15.000 I was just looking over these new snippets and the 309 00:15:15.080 --> 00:15:17.159 event you sent looks like we're going to be talking 310 00:15:17.200 --> 00:15:24.240 about everything from like AD overload to at ownership and 311 00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:27.399 then to top it off, a free local event this weekend. 312 00:15:27.559 --> 00:15:28.240 Sounds like a plan. 313 00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:30.720 So let's jump right in. Huh. This first one, this 314 00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:33.240 Business Journal's article right it says we're hit wow. 315 00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:33.639 Get this. 316 00:15:33.960 --> 00:15:36.200 Four thousand ads every single day. 317 00:15:36.360 --> 00:15:39.399 Now, remember, all I did was uploaded the story about 318 00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:43.120 the four thousand ads, and that was it. That's all 319 00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:45.440 I did. I uploaded a bunch of stories and then 320 00:15:45.840 --> 00:15:48.240 I said a story about an event that happened green 321 00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:48.879 Egg deities. 322 00:15:48.919 --> 00:15:51.279 What about you, though, what workshops are you most excited about? 323 00:15:51.440 --> 00:15:56.399 Oh Man, tough call, But honestly, those computer basics and 324 00:15:56.519 --> 00:16:00.519 online safety ones sound super useful, especially these days. 325 00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:02.200 You know no doubt about it? Did you? 326 00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:06.519 So you listen to the AI Did that not sound 327 00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:07.879 like two real people. 328 00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:12.799 Have from from listening to it the way there, the 329 00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:16.440 way their cadence was totally not human to me. 330 00:16:16.759 --> 00:16:19.279 Real right now, generally I would agree with you this 331 00:16:19.440 --> 00:16:22.480 one could have fooled me now because the other ones 332 00:16:22.559 --> 00:16:24.120 I got kind of catched. This one could have fooled me. 333 00:16:24.320 --> 00:16:27.679 Now that that that fell firmly in the uncanny valley 334 00:16:27.759 --> 00:16:30.559 for me, that it was just I was shown like 335 00:16:30.639 --> 00:16:33.879 the cadences, the pauses and the breaks were just like 336 00:16:34.039 --> 00:16:38.240 just that, those couple degrees off, just like I'm. 337 00:16:38.159 --> 00:16:41.480 Like, ah, now, now let me say this. Behind what 338 00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:43.840 I just said, this one could have fooled me. But 339 00:16:43.879 --> 00:16:46.440 I wouldn't listen to these two because I don't listen 340 00:16:46.519 --> 00:16:49.440 to people on the radio like this. Already. There are 341 00:16:49.519 --> 00:16:54.000 people like this on air already. I can't stand and 342 00:16:54.120 --> 00:16:55.519 I don't listen to their shows. 343 00:16:55.919 --> 00:17:00.879 I was driving on Friday morning or Thursday morning, listening 344 00:17:00.960 --> 00:17:03.879 to a show very similar to this, and I'm ember 345 00:17:04.079 --> 00:17:07.960 thinking this. When I did this on Thursday or Friday 346 00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:11.200 Friday morning, I remember thinking, well, that sounds like that 347 00:17:11.279 --> 00:17:14.720 show I listened to yesterday. But the pauses, to me 348 00:17:14.920 --> 00:17:17.720 are what made it give it that little edge of 349 00:17:18.359 --> 00:17:21.920 human of humanity. So I don't know, I don't know 350 00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:24.519 we're listening to we're listening to the same thing, but 351 00:17:24.599 --> 00:17:27.119 maybe it is two different things. It just it was 352 00:17:27.319 --> 00:17:28.000 just so creepy. 353 00:17:28.279 --> 00:17:30.640 Now that the thing that makes this extra creepy for 354 00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:33.079 me is have have you guys ever heard of the 355 00:17:33.200 --> 00:17:34.359 dead Internet theory? 356 00:17:34.920 --> 00:17:34.960 No? 357 00:17:36.039 --> 00:17:39.759 Okay, so this is I please listeners be aware. I 358 00:17:39.839 --> 00:17:42.599 am putting on my tinfoil hat for this, So I'm 359 00:17:42.640 --> 00:17:45.680 just gonna throw that out there. The dead Internet theory 360 00:17:45.759 --> 00:17:49.759 started around twenty twenty one. Of course, it started with 361 00:17:49.839 --> 00:17:52.519 like a four Chan post, which you know, fastioning of 362 00:17:52.599 --> 00:17:56.400 good information there. But the dead Internet theory was basically 363 00:17:56.480 --> 00:18:00.640 that actual organic human interaction on the Internet that has 364 00:18:00.759 --> 00:18:05.319 been on a steady decline, replaced instead with bots and 365 00:18:05.519 --> 00:18:11.720 algorithmically created content, so that you have no idea because 366 00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:14.680 of the pure anonymity of the Internet, for example, for Chune, 367 00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:18.720 Reddit coorra sites like that where it's just you pick 368 00:18:18.759 --> 00:18:20.599 a user name and that's it, that you have no 369 00:18:20.759 --> 00:18:25.160 idea whether you're actually interfacing with an organic, live human 370 00:18:25.200 --> 00:18:29.480 being or a bot created by somebody else. And now 371 00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:33.920 we've got this stuff that can create you know, a 372 00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:36.880 pseudo sounding radio show to go on top of it. 373 00:18:37.039 --> 00:18:39.200 I'm just like, oh, this is great. I'm not gonna 374 00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:41.240 wake up at three a m. With an existential crisis 375 00:18:41.279 --> 00:18:42.400 of what's actually real. 376 00:18:42.720 --> 00:18:43.920 That's not gonna happen at all. 377 00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:48.880 Hey, thanks Andy, I really appreciate that one. Like people 378 00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:51.279 are like, ah, the dead Internet. There is just I'm like, 379 00:18:51.519 --> 00:18:54.960 it might have been, but we are. Somebody looked at 380 00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:57.000 that in twenty one and was like, oh damn, that's 381 00:18:57.039 --> 00:18:58.559 like a really good idea. 382 00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:04.279 Sleep again. We bet if like AI got real. 383 00:19:04.480 --> 00:19:07.079 And now somebody at Google is just like, oh, yep, yeah, 384 00:19:07.200 --> 00:19:08.480 let me just make a product that can do that 385 00:19:08.559 --> 00:19:09.359 for you. That's fine. 386 00:19:09.519 --> 00:19:13.759 I tested this out by uploading a story from last 387 00:19:13.839 --> 00:19:17.240 year about a fireworks festival that happens here in Saladita 388 00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:21.680 And it was just a short little blurb, a press release, 389 00:19:22.160 --> 00:19:25.160 and it took the two people talking about the event. Well, 390 00:19:25.200 --> 00:19:28.640 it blew me away. Is they pronounced sabwdita the correct way. 391 00:19:29.119 --> 00:19:31.599 A lot of people call it serena or are they 392 00:19:31.640 --> 00:19:34.519 give it a different name, but they actually pronounced it right. 393 00:19:34.960 --> 00:19:38.240 And again that that just blew me away. It makes 394 00:19:38.319 --> 00:19:41.359 me wonder in light of radio, and you know, radio 395 00:19:41.559 --> 00:19:47.160 is competing with so many different technologies now, radio broadcasting slick. 396 00:19:47.279 --> 00:19:49.839 I just wonder. You know, you've heard stories about there's 397 00:19:49.880 --> 00:19:52.000 one big, huge radio group out there that has had 398 00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:55.640 you know AI DJs that has been doing that. You 399 00:19:55.720 --> 00:19:59.440 know radio station says, well, we serve the market. Could 400 00:19:59.640 --> 00:20:03.319 take that uploaded and it could be running on the air, 401 00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:06.000
