Speaker 1: from Birmingham, England. So all next week during our show,
Speaker 1: we'll have some of those passes to give away so
Speaker 1: you can watch that.
Speaker 2: Question for you because you are going to be driving
Speaker 2: when that show is happening. If are you still able
Speaker 2: to watch it a little later.
Speaker 1: By you know what I'm saying, Well, yeah you can
Speaker 1: with the pass I think is good for forty eight hours.
Speaker 2: Okay, I want to check cool just so you could
Speaker 2: get to your destination and sit down and enjoy some.
Speaker 1: OZ twenty nine ninety nine if you're looking to purchase
Speaker 1: that by the way, all right, unto check it out
Speaker 1: time here on JR. Some science and technology news. It
Speaker 1: was a good day yesterday from Mark Zuckerbergen is company Meta,
Speaker 1: which of course you know, has all things under that umbrella,
Speaker 1: including Facebook. A federal judge sided with Facebook and Meta
Speaker 1: in dismissing a copyright infringement lawsuit that was brought by
Speaker 1: authors who accused the company of stealing their works to
Speaker 1: train its artificial intelligence technology. We've talked about this before.
Speaker 1: You train artificial intelligence by literally feeding it gobs of
Speaker 1: information and it takes it all in and then it
Speaker 1: regurgitates exactly author It hasn't killed everybody yet, Taco. We're
Speaker 1: not at that point, but it authors have contended that
Speaker 1: their written works should they should be compensated if these
Speaker 1: uh ai uh you know models are being trained with
Speaker 1: their material. The judge sided with Meta. Now, the US
Speaker 1: District judge out of San Francisco found that this group
Speaker 1: of thirds teen riders that also included comedian Sarah Silverman
Speaker 1: made the wrong arguments and then tossed the case. But
Speaker 1: the judge also said the ruling is just limited to
Speaker 1: the authors in this particular case and does not provide
Speaker 1: Meta license. Let me decode that for you. The judge
Speaker 1: basically says, you got something here, but you've framed your
Speaker 1: case improperly. You went the wrong angle, so they're gonna
Speaker 1: have to get back with much like I'm contending on
Speaker 1: the Diddy thing, it's similar you know they're trying to
Speaker 1: get him for this, but their content from the get go.
Speaker 1: So we'll see how that goes. We'll see how this
Speaker 1: goes moving forward.
Speaker 2: Did Sarah cuss him out on the way out of
Speaker 2: the courtroom.
Speaker 1: That I'm not I don't think she's there. He said
Speaker 1: something like, you know, Pat take a bite. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: perhaps I don't think she was present in the courtroom
Speaker 1: for this. She's a dirty one, not in a bad way.
Speaker 1: I mean. Venice, Italy has been taken over by Jeff
Speaker 1: Bezos and is soon to be brought Laurence Sanchez. Their
Speaker 1: big wedding spread over three days starting today. The locals
Speaker 1: in Venice, Italy are not happy with this event have
Speaker 1: staged all sorts of protests against the Bezos and Empire
Speaker 1: if they basically there. They don't like the fact that
Speaker 1: they have basically rented out Venice for themselves.
Speaker 2: Yeah they did. They put up a big sign or something, and.
Speaker 1: Well they've rented out all these water taxis and stuff,
Speaker 1: and they just you.
Speaker 2: Know, it's think, if you got that invite, what do
Speaker 2: you get him as a gift? You could give him
Speaker 2: an Amazon gift card stone for total loop.
Speaker 1: I don't know. Dude. So I we'll see how this
Speaker 1: whole thing plays out over the next three days. I'm
Speaker 1: sure it'll be extravagant and fabulous. Direct TV will no
Speaker 1: longer offer their satellite subscriptions for some new customers. They're
Speaker 1: trying this out on a trial basis in some markets.
Speaker 1: You know, That's how Direct TV initially built their business,
Speaker 1: was on satellite delivery of television signals, and the whole
Speaker 1: idea in the beginning was to deliver TV to rural
Speaker 1: areas that didn't have access to cable. Well since then, obviously,
Speaker 1: things have drastically changed, even with the Direct TV now
Speaker 1: transitioning mainly to a streaming service, although there's plenty of
Speaker 1: people who still used the satellite portion of it and
Speaker 1: in rural areas rely on that. But I guess what
Speaker 1: they're saying here is, if you live in a major
Speaker 1: metropolitan area, there's really no need for us to come
Speaker 1: out and install equipment on your roof and in your
Speaker 1: house when you've already got the cable running into your
Speaker 1: place that you can stream it through. It's that easy.
Speaker 1: So they're trying that out in some areas. We'll see
Speaker 1: if this is ultimately the demise of the satellite portion
Speaker 1: of direct TV, although it still doesn't answer what they're
Speaker 1: supposed to do for their rural customers, who you know,
Speaker 1: in some cases are white years away from having some
Speaker 1: the amenities and access to things that most of us
Speaker 1: just take for granted these days. Yeah.
Speaker 2: They and plus they're going to save the corner over
Speaker 2: your roof. Remember that when when the little dishes first
Speaker 2: were out and they just screw them right through everything.
Speaker 1: I still have the base of mine on the roof.
Speaker 1: I took the dish off, but I'm not going to
Speaker 1: screw that. I now have a water leak.
Speaker 2: Oh no, of course, that's as soon as I saw
Speaker 2: my dude, that's awesome.
Speaker 1: YouTube is increasing the minimum age required for its users
Speaker 1: to live stream. It was thirteen, now they're raising that
Speaker 1: to sixteen. It was confirmed that as of July twenty second,
Speaker 1: creators will need to be sixteen or older to stream
Speaker 1: unaccompanied on that platform. So make sure your kids are
Speaker 1: aware of that, Mom and dad, uh huh, while you're
Speaker 1: you know, hovering over everything else. HDMI cables. This has
Speaker 1: been a bane of many people's existence for years. When
Speaker 1: these things first came into use, the concept was great.
Speaker 1: It still is great. The cables themselves used to be
Speaker 1: overpriced beyond reasonable prices. They since have improved and come
Speaker 1: down in price, and the amount of information that flows
Speaker 1: through these cables has improved over the years. The current
Speaker 1: standard is HDMI two point one, which is for the
Speaker 1: four K in eight K delivery of video and audio.
Speaker 1: All Right, it can be able to forty eight gigabits
Speaker 1: per second through those ultra HDMI two point one cables.
Speaker 1: HDMI two point two, that version has now been finalized
Speaker 1: as the next the next HDMI cable it'll be coming out.
Speaker 1: It'll double the current video capacity to ninety six gigabits
Speaker 1: per second and deliver sixteen K resolution. Now, that's fine
Speaker 1: and dandy when these cables come out, they'll work just
Speaker 1: fine with the existing connectors. The problem is you'll have
Speaker 1: to have compatible devices to take advantage of that bandwidth
Speaker 1: and resolution. So manufacturers now will be able to start
Speaker 1: producing those types of devices that will be able to
Speaker 1: fully utilize the forthcoming HDMI two point two standard.
Speaker 2: These are times that I really love that My recent
Speaker 2: TV purchases were just hey, I can get this TV
Speaker 2: for about about ninety eight dollars.
Speaker 1: You're a guy who doesn't really you don't really care
Speaker 1: about you know, all the building whistles now now I
Speaker 1: know you don't get On the other hand, this is
Speaker 1: exciting to me.
Speaker 2: That's my major in college, is this stuff? I just
Speaker 2: really you know, kind of hey.
Speaker 1: Ring camera alerts are about to get a little bit
Speaker 1: smarter utilizing AI. You know, if you have Ring cameras,
Speaker 1: you can set to set your app to receive alerts
Speaker 1: when there's motion in front of those cameras, alerting hey,
Speaker 1: something's up, and then you got to go and look
Speaker 1: and see what's happening. Right now, the descriptions that show
Speaker 1: up are pretty general person detected. With the use of
Speaker 1: the AI alerts that'll be rolling out with Ring camera,
Speaker 1: you'll now get a more like person detected at front
Speaker 1: door with a mop. So if you know you're a
Speaker 1: cleaning person or whatever, person detected at the front riding
Speaker 1: on a mower, you know, stuff like that person at
Speaker 1: the front door with a gun. Yes, exactly, exactly. And
Speaker 1: then there's this be careful if you're buying what is
Speaker 1: being touted as a pre owned switch to console somebody's
Speaker 1: sell anyone that they're looking to get rid of or whatever.
Speaker 1: Buyer beware. The company is making no bones about it
Speaker 1: that they are fully aware that there are folks out
Speaker 1: there who have found a way to pirate the switch
Speaker 1: to games with a it's called a MiG card to
Speaker 1: play pirated games. When they detect that, they will brick
Speaker 1: your system. Okay, they'll render it useless. People who've had
Speaker 1: that happen to them by Nintendo are then trying to
Speaker 1: sell those systems unbeknownst to the pert as used and
Speaker 1: it's a great deal. Guess what if you buy one
Speaker 1: of those, it's been bricked, it ain't working, it ain't
Speaker 1: never gonna work. So there's saying buyer beware there. If
Speaker 1: you want to buy one legitimately secondhand, they say to
Speaker 1: go through a authorized retailer with an open box return
Speaker 1: policy this period. Go through a retailer. Yeah, that's it.
Speaker 1: And finally some good news to wrap up tech it out.
Speaker 1: Researchers at the University of South Florida are taking a
Speaker 1: high tech approach to a very old problem here in Florida,
Speaker 1: mosquito born disease. The team at USF has designed a
Speaker 1: smart trap that uses artificial intelligence to identify dangerous mosquitos
Speaker 1: in real time. The device will lure these mosquitos in,
Speaker 1: take a photo, then use an algorithm to detect the species,
Speaker 1: flagging the ones that carry viruses like denge or malaria.
Speaker 1: Identifying these quickly and where they're at can pinpoint areas
Speaker 1: that municipalities can then go and target for control efforts. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's cool. The device is going to cost under one
Speaker 1: hundred and fifty bucks.
Speaker 2: If they if they're able to do that and lwer
Speaker 2: these things in and figure all that out, couldn't you
Speaker 2: just make it one of those traps that doesn't you know,
Speaker 2: outside your.
Speaker 1: House, a bug, bug light, bug staffort.
Speaker 2: I guess that Inceph Forlis make a good point.
Speaker 1: Taco let your Taco on demand.
