Speaker 1: You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
Speaker 1: KFI AM six forty and it's.
Speaker 2: Tech Thursday, and you know what that means. Marcia Collier
Speaker 2: joins us in studio. Marsha, you look radiant tonight. Is
Speaker 2: there a special occasion?
Speaker 3: No, you know, I just decided I'm gonna start dressing
Speaker 3: better and I'm going to wipe out as many negative
Speaker 3: thoughts as possible. So we're palette cleansing, all right for
Speaker 3: the audience tonight.
Speaker 2: I wish we were actually doing the live YouTube show
Speaker 2: because your hair is just gorgeous. I mean, you have
Speaker 2: this long red hair. It's so vibrant. I said, you
Speaker 2: noticed it as well, Right, I.
Speaker 4: Think I'm gonna cut it just a little.
Speaker 5: No, don't do that, don't you dare.
Speaker 2: Look, if I being a smart ass that I usually am,
Speaker 2: if your husband wasn't sitting here, I'll say, so, so,
Speaker 2: what's what's what's the name of your new boyfriend or something?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 3: No, actually, the deal is I was born with red hair,
Speaker 3: and hair color fades and then you get grays. But
Speaker 3: when I wear my natural color, I'm totally washed out.
Speaker 4: This one of our problems. Totally washed out.
Speaker 3: I look like a ghost because I'm very pale skin.
Speaker 4: I should be in O'Kelly.
Speaker 5: What do you mean, I'm the only old Kelly hair.
Speaker 3: Oh well, and so I have to keep my hair
Speaker 3: my color.
Speaker 5: That's it.
Speaker 4: I can't look even look in a mirror with.
Speaker 5: It's a very pleasant contrast. I like it.
Speaker 4: I like it, Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2: But I didn't come here to have you come here
Speaker 2: just to be complimented on your hair.
Speaker 5: I mean, let's talk about tech.
Speaker 2: And I know a common question that I hear in
Speaker 2: a common question I think about, is how should we
Speaker 2: go about cleaning our phone or cleaning our keyboard, you know,
Speaker 2: not only for the health of the device, but also
Speaker 2: our health.
Speaker 3: Well, I'll give you my methods, my tried and true methods,
Speaker 3: and then i'll give you what the experts.
Speaker 5: There's what they do and there's what I do.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm not going to go into what you're
Speaker 3: supposed to do to clean ear pod or air pods. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I don't use that's so gross, it's just not even Yeah,
Speaker 3: this is why I can't wear an ear thing.
Speaker 2: I want no part of it. People can't see us.
Speaker 2: But we're both using over ear headphones. That's one of
Speaker 2: the main reasons.
Speaker 3: Well, and also it isolates the sound a whole lot better. True,
Speaker 3: I don't care what anybody says.
Speaker 4: They don't.
Speaker 3: I'll take a bowse noise canceling headset over ear air
Speaker 3: pods a.
Speaker 5: Lot, by a lot any day. But I'm sorry I
Speaker 5: was getting in your work.
Speaker 4: That's okay.
Speaker 3: Keyboards, yes, not the one that's first of all built
Speaker 3: into your laptop. But the theory is just the same.
Speaker 3: Pick up the keyboard, but unplug its best. Yeah, turn
Speaker 3: it over, put it on a paper towel, and go
Speaker 3: bam bama like a bad child, and you will be surprised.
Speaker 4: Old chips right moth.
Speaker 5: Oh it's nasty. I've done it many times, just like,
Speaker 5: oh my gosh, that.
Speaker 3: Was that was That was my keyboard, right, And if
Speaker 3: you don't hit it too hard, that's good. If you
Speaker 3: hit it too hard, I once knocked the key one
Speaker 3: of the keys off my keyboard, so don't smack it
Speaker 3: too hard. Also, if you're a little OCD like I am,
Speaker 3: I have a white keyboard.
Speaker 4: I love my white keyboard.
Speaker 3: What I do is when I'm working or you know,
Speaker 3: thinking about things, I take a Q tip and I
Speaker 3: put it in a general cleaner, something not really strong,
Speaker 3: you know, maybe a Missus Myers or something that's doesn't
Speaker 3: eat off the letter keys, although I did do that
Speaker 3: to one, and you can buy the stickers for the
Speaker 3: put them back on.
Speaker 2: I'm here to tell you if you use too much
Speaker 2: hand sanitizer and that hand sanitizer hits the keyboard, yep,
Speaker 2: your keyboard's done.
Speaker 4: Well, Jesse.
Speaker 3: You know on Amazon, because once I was given a
Speaker 3: laptop that was from Europe and they got all different keys,
Speaker 3: and a quirdy keyboard isn't exactly the same. So I
Speaker 3: bought these stickers on Amazon and they cost next to nothing,
Speaker 3: and you can replace the stickers on your keys nice
Speaker 3: and clear, and you'll actually, if it's at black, you'll
Speaker 3: never see that there's anything on there.
Speaker 5: I have.
Speaker 2: This is what I use, and you don't know that
Speaker 2: I use this, but I want to share this. Do
Speaker 2: you ever use compressed air?
Speaker 3: I use, Well, after you give the little keyboard a spanking,
Speaker 3: keep being a bad keyboard, then you give it a
Speaker 3: with the uh whush, well what's it? I mean the
Speaker 3: compressed air, and then that blows out a lot of
Speaker 3: stuff that you can't really see because that's little stuff
Speaker 3: and dust.
Speaker 4: So you know that's now the experts, you know, they have.
Speaker 3: All all the different things and how to clean them
Speaker 3: and how you have to use certain things. But you
Speaker 3: know they make products for cleaning technology and instead of
Speaker 3: using isopropyl alcohol rubbing alcohol for those who don't know,
Speaker 3: knock yourself out by a two ninety nine bottle of
Speaker 3: the cleaner that's meant for the thing, for example, flat
Speaker 3: screen TVs or your screen on your laptop, or don't
Speaker 3: ever spray the cleaner onten even if it's meant to
Speaker 3: be used. I use one called Woosh Whoosh, and they
Speaker 3: never sponsored me, but great product. You can clean your
Speaker 3: glasses with it. You can clean the non shiny screens
Speaker 3: with it. Shiny screens doesn't streak. Just spray it on
Speaker 3: a microfiber cloth.
Speaker 5: Like you wouldn't for your glasses.
Speaker 3: Right, never spray directly on it, and never use anything
Speaker 3: other than a microfiber cloth on any of your technology.
Speaker 2: That's great to know because, especially since we have touchscreen laptops,
Speaker 2: you can very easily ruin a screen on a laptop
Speaker 2: and not forget that. Yeah, and that means the laptop
Speaker 2: is pretty much done and it's a.
Speaker 3: Mess, and if you have to keep using it because
Speaker 3: you don't have the money to buy a new one,
Speaker 3: it's so much easier to take care of it than God,
Speaker 3: I sound like my mother.
Speaker 2: All the advice they gave us that we did. Want
Speaker 2: to listen to it and all of a sudden you start
Speaker 2: reciting it verbatim.
Speaker 3: Well we knew back in the day when By the way,
Speaker 3: Nintendo's coming out with a new switch, but we're not
Speaker 3: talking about it because it's not coming out till June,
Speaker 3: so let's not give them any extra publicity. But how
Speaker 3: to keep game consoles and games clean?
Speaker 4: Now, what's the way you do that?
Speaker 5: Blow on it? So I did.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, at least back in the cars stays, we
Speaker 2: would blow out in the cart and everything.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean it's like a harmonica and you'd blow
Speaker 4: on it.
Speaker 5: Back to the compressed air.
Speaker 4: Wow, I never thought of that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think blowing on it gave the extra moisture.
Speaker 4: I think that helped the electronic content.
Speaker 5: Look, I still blow on my phones everything. It's almost
Speaker 5: like when a doubt, just blow on it.
Speaker 3: Oh, speaking up totally, as we're getting totally off topic.
Speaker 3: Mainly in iPhones, I've never done it in an Android
Speaker 3: take a tooth If your phone is charging slowly, take
Speaker 3: a toothpick and stick it in your charger hole.
Speaker 5: Watch now this is this is a you guess for kids.
Speaker 3: You get a giant dust bunny inside iPhone.
Speaker 2: Now, I've used Q tips for my charging port. Would
Speaker 2: you recommend that or against that?
Speaker 3: I would use a toothpick only because it's like a
Speaker 3: little spear and you can get in there. And if
Speaker 3: there's an actual bunny, a dust by, you know, all
Speaker 3: sticking together, you're not shredding it or anything, and you
Speaker 3: can just lift it out easily. So you're getting MOW
Speaker 3: and my tips because when you know, go over all
Speaker 3: surfaces with a warm cloth and either water general purpose cleaner,
Speaker 3: or a mix that's half isopropyl alcohol in half water.
Speaker 3: But there is a thing called my cellar water, which
Speaker 3: ladies you may know about m I C E L
Speaker 3: L A R. That's a special kind of water that
Speaker 3: you can clean your face with. They've been using it
Speaker 3: for over a century in France and Europe and it
Speaker 3: can clean your face without drying out your skin.
Speaker 4: It's great.
Speaker 3: The my cells are tiny, tiny little oil things, so
Speaker 3: it's not super drying, which is why they tell you
Speaker 3: to dilute the isopropyl out alcohol. My seller water good
Speaker 3: for cleaning keyboards and game consoles and things like that,
Speaker 3: and the frame around your TV.
Speaker 2: All that is great stuff. When we come back, though, Marsha,
Speaker 2: we have talked about AI in various forms and permutations
Speaker 2: for quite some time, but I wonder whether AI has
Speaker 2: kept up its side of the bargain. We're totally supposed
Speaker 2: to change our lives. It's going to change our economy,
Speaker 2: change the way that we live, change technology.
Speaker 5: Has it happened yet?
Speaker 3: So basically we're calling the next segment over promised and underperformed.
Speaker 4: We can talk about that.
Speaker 1: You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
Speaker 1: KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 4: She parted with Silent.
Speaker 2: I AM six forty. It's Later with mo Kelly live
Speaker 2: everywhere in the iHeartRadio app. And just to remind you,
Speaker 2: starting Monday, we'll have a live video stream of the show.
Speaker 2: You might as well go follow me on YouTube at
Speaker 2: mister mo Kelly m R m O K E L
Speaker 2: L Y. We're gonna give it a go. It'll probably
Speaker 2: have some bumps and bruises and some bugs, but we're
Speaker 2: still going to do it starting Monday, so go ahead
Speaker 2: and start following me at mister B Kelly, m R
Speaker 2: m OK E L L Y. We're bringing a video
Speaker 2: component to later with MO Kelly and I can't wait
Speaker 2: for you to see, among other people, Marshall Collier every Thursday.
Speaker 5: You should see here right now. She's just radiant.
Speaker 4: Now we have good lighting. We have good lighting.
Speaker 2: Before the break, we were teasing how you and I
Speaker 2: talked about AI. The world has talked about AI. The
Speaker 2: tech world has gone crazy over AI. And we had
Speaker 2: these maybe delusions of grandeur as far as what AI
Speaker 2: was going to do in the near term, and it
Speaker 2: hasn't quite turned out that way.
Speaker 4: Wait a minute, what did we really think it was
Speaker 4: going to do well?
Speaker 2: You had people who were the doomsayers, who are going
Speaker 2: to say this is going to be, you know, the
Speaker 2: terminator of sky Neet, and there were other people going
Speaker 2: to say, hey, it's going to change our lives and
Speaker 2: write all our term papers and write music and create movies.
Speaker 3: And we've found out the only thing it's really good for,
Speaker 3: and now they've been caught are tech coders. When they
Speaker 3: apply for jobs, they're usually given questions that they have
Speaker 3: to write coding for and it's all they all cheat
Speaker 3: recent article and they all get caught because they're all
Speaker 3: turning in the same code. So yeah, and if you
Speaker 3: remember a couple of months ago they announced Alexa Plus, Yes,
Speaker 3: this was their new AI who and you know we
Speaker 3: were talking, well, I don't term my Alexa on the
Speaker 3: house anymore and whatever. Yeah, good reason. But the fact
Speaker 3: is they never came out with a full version of
Speaker 3: Alexa Plus. I haven't been able to find anybody who
Speaker 3: actually paid green money to use Alexaplus, and I'm trying
Speaker 3: anybody out there. You want to message me on social
Speaker 3: media at Marshall Collier just let me know nobody's using it.
Speaker 3: And Amazon admitted they've only reached a small number of customers.
Speaker 3: They won't say how small. Of course, their goal is
Speaker 3: to get millions of customers using Alexaplus in May.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 3: According to my schedule here, May is awfully close.
Speaker 5: So we're talking about three and a half weeks, right.
Speaker 3: I don't think it happened. It's going to happen. Supposedly
Speaker 3: it was going to. On stage demos showed it giving
Speaker 3: a complicated uber order answering questions about users email and calendars.
Speaker 4: But just remember one thing.
Speaker 3: Just like Hippa only covers you when you're in the
Speaker 3: doctor's office and the doors closed, and that data is
Speaker 3: between you. The minute you mentioned family names and things
Speaker 3: like that, to a learning language machine, which is what
Speaker 3: AI is, it becomes part of its learning base and
Speaker 3: it will remember, so.
Speaker 5: It's studying you more than you're utilizing it.
Speaker 3: Yes, I mean, I'm lousy at writing podcast titles. So
Speaker 3: I go and I'm testing all the different ones because
Speaker 3: I you know, episode titles, because you need episode titles.
Speaker 3: And I told chat GPT that they were just spewing
Speaker 3: crap and could they just please give me something that
Speaker 3: didn't look like bad clickbait?
Speaker 4: So they have to learn from us.
Speaker 3: And again, Apple another one who promised last June as
Speaker 3: part of iOS eighteen, which launched in September, that they
Speaker 3: were going to come out with all this magical stuff,
Speaker 3: a much more personal theory, who would scan your calendars
Speaker 3: previous ahead, would know when your appointment. But wait a minute,
Speaker 3: my phone does that already already? Yeah, I don't really
Speaker 3: need that. If I put in someone's birthday under birthdays
Speaker 3: in Google Calendar, I get a notification on my lock
Speaker 3: screen every day for a month before that, so I
Speaker 3: do not forget family.
Speaker 5: By I can't remember with the damn.
Speaker 3: So yeah, right, and Apple ran an iPhone sixteen pro
Speaker 3: ad that highlighted how this more personal theory could scan
Speaker 3: previous calendar appointments to help recall the name of someone
Speaker 3: you once met at a coffee shop.
Speaker 4: Eh, where's that going to come from?
Speaker 5: It's like I didn't put it in my calendar, so
Speaker 5: where's it?
Speaker 3: But this was a video that they ran, but the
Speaker 3: company stopped running the ad and mysteriously it vanished from
Speaker 3: their YouTube account.
Speaker 5: Thank you for that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so, tech giants make a lot of promises, and
Speaker 3: let's face it, is there anything and message me? And
Speaker 3: I'd love to hear. Marcia Collier dot com has a
Speaker 3: contact page. Let me know what you want to use
Speaker 3: AI for. It was, frankly, aside from recipes and podcast
Speaker 3: episode titles, I really it seems pretty rudimentary.
Speaker 2: Now you can say, hey, it's created some cool movie
Speaker 2: trailers and some art, but that's.
Speaker 4: Not helping the consumer and our listeners are consumers.
Speaker 2: No, that's the distinction I'm trying to get to. Is
Speaker 2: it creating anything which is of great utility.
Speaker 3: Exactly exactly, it's great on a business. I can see
Speaker 3: where definitely it's going to help business is H and
Speaker 3: M Women's fashion store are making thirty AI models based
Speaker 3: on real models. These models have to sign away. There
Speaker 3: was the name, image and likenesses. Yeah, and it was
Speaker 3: a big deal. But anyway, they signed contracts and they
Speaker 3: don't get extra money, and their image and likeness can
Speaker 3: be morphed and AI for years.
Speaker 5: That's kind of scary.
Speaker 4: Well, I did feel kind of grateful.
Speaker 3: I did get a voiceover thing for playing a cat,
Speaker 3: but I really couldn't figure out how a cat talked,
Speaker 3: so I didn't do I didn't go, I didn't answer
Speaker 3: no the dialogue.
Speaker 4: I was to play the cat and then say dialogue.
Speaker 3: No to say but there were words, right, yeah, I
Speaker 3: couldn't do that. So anyway, by the way, our last
Speaker 3: thing spring cleaning. Yes, want to get rid of old devices,
Speaker 3: old printers, old household items. Take them to best Buy.
Speaker 3: They take three household items per household per day for
Speaker 3: free for recycling, including desktop, computers and printers.
Speaker 2: What are you supposed to do to make sure that
Speaker 2: your data has been removed? Just wipe it or what
Speaker 2: what do you recommend?
Speaker 3: Well, you know, this is where my sadistic thing comes out.
Speaker 3: I pull out the hard drive now, either I keep it.
Speaker 3: Usually I do keep it. I buy a case on
Speaker 3: Amazon for it, and you just plug it in and
Speaker 3: you can access that anytime through a USB cable.
Speaker 5: It makes sense.
Speaker 3: Yeah, And that way you can get your old data,
Speaker 3: or you can put on safety glasses and take a
Speaker 3: drill to it.
Speaker 5: Thank you for the safety glasses recommendation.
Speaker 4: Well, we try to keep everybody protected here, Marsha.
Speaker 5: Did you have any trouble with the weather getting here today?
Speaker 3: No, it was really funny. That was insane weather. All
Speaker 3: of a sudden, the clouds came over our house. There's
Speaker 3: under lightning, it's dark, it's pounding down.
Speaker 5: I'm saying, oh, did you get Hale? I got Hale.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it felt like I was hearing Hale, but I
Speaker 3: didn't see Hale. But you know, I bad vision anyway.
Speaker 3: But it was unbelievable. But it lasted for about.
Speaker 4: Twenty five minutes, not long, and then wis gone and
Speaker 4: the sun came out again.
Speaker 3: And that's why we live in southern California.
Speaker 1: You're listening to later with Moe Kelly on demand from
Speaker 1: KFI AM six forty
