<v Speaker 2>go home with some vult Beat tickets, nine inch Nails tickets.

9
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:34.280
<v Speaker 1>Just good bye there to some point today. You don't

10
00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:36.520
<v Speaker 1>have to do it right this second until like midnight.

11
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:39.960
<v Speaker 1>All right, all right, let's get to some tech news

12
00:00:39.960 --> 00:00:44.320
<v Speaker 1>and stuff here. Obviously the news about tariffs are impacting

13
00:00:44.399 --> 00:00:49.960
<v Speaker 1>lots of things technology related. Uh, but not just yet.

14
00:00:50.520 --> 00:00:54.079
<v Speaker 1>Keep that in mind. Stuff that is here in the

15
00:00:54.119 --> 00:00:58.640
<v Speaker 1>country already that was made someplace else has not been tariffed.

16
00:00:59.359 --> 00:01:03.119
<v Speaker 1>So if you're you're on the fence about buying, you know, whatever,

17
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:07.680
<v Speaker 1>time maybe to do it now rather than wait, you know,

18
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:09.959
<v Speaker 1>a month or two when new supplies come in that

19
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:13.640
<v Speaker 1>are subject to tariffs. And again it will also depend

20
00:01:13.640 --> 00:01:16.280
<v Speaker 1>on what country they're coming in from.

21
00:01:16.319 --> 00:01:19.120
<v Speaker 2>That said, is that what you're talking about with TVs

22
00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:19.920
<v Speaker 2>and phones.

23
00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:25.879
<v Speaker 1>Le' get to that here. Apple has proactively airlifted planeloads.

24
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:30.599
<v Speaker 1>It's being described as planeloads full of iPhones and max

25
00:01:30.920 --> 00:01:34.680
<v Speaker 1>ahead of the tariffs that went into effect against China.

26
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Mainly at this point where things are right now, China

27
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:41.200
<v Speaker 1>is who's getting hit the hardest by the US and

28
00:01:41.319 --> 00:01:44.400
<v Speaker 1>post tariffs now at one hundred and twenty five percent.

29
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:49.760
<v Speaker 1>Right As for the other countries involved, the reciprocal tariff

30
00:01:50.120 --> 00:01:54.680
<v Speaker 1>was paused for ninety days, all right, The ten percent

31
00:01:54.760 --> 00:01:57.480
<v Speaker 1>across the board tariff is in effect for all those

32
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:00.359
<v Speaker 1>other countries, and there's about eighty five country is right

33
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.239
<v Speaker 1>now that if come to the US saying let's renegotiate

34
00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:06.719
<v Speaker 1>our trade deals in tariffs. So this is an evolving situation.

35
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:11.240
<v Speaker 1>The real target here with all of this is China, obviously,

36
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:15.000
<v Speaker 1>because so much stuff we consume comes from there.

37
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:18.439
<v Speaker 2>You can't you can't look at a product without the

38
00:02:18.479 --> 00:02:20.120
<v Speaker 2>majority of them that's see in China.

39
00:02:20.360 --> 00:02:25.520
<v Speaker 1>Now, as it pertains to other products like televisions, obviously

40
00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:27.599
<v Speaker 1>a lot of the Apple stuff made in China. So

41
00:02:27.639 --> 00:02:30.479
<v Speaker 1>that's why Apple proactively got stuff in here to keep

42
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:34.080
<v Speaker 1>the supply chain full for the time being TVs. A

43
00:02:34.159 --> 00:02:37.680
<v Speaker 1>lot of TVs made in China too, especially if you're

44
00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:40.240
<v Speaker 1>looking for a High Sense or a TCL. Those are

45
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:44.199
<v Speaker 1>Chinese brands and considered budget brands here in the US.

46
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:47.360
<v Speaker 1>The ones the product that's here now you can get

47
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:49.639
<v Speaker 1>at the existing prices, But anything that's going to come

48
00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:53.439
<v Speaker 1>in after the fact, you probably expect to go up.

49
00:02:53.680 --> 00:02:56.280
<v Speaker 1>What about some of the other TV manufacturers, big names

50
00:02:56.319 --> 00:03:01.560
<v Speaker 1>like Sony and LG and Samsung, Imson. Some of their

51
00:03:01.639 --> 00:03:04.759
<v Speaker 1>stuff is made in China, but not nearly all of it.

52
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:08.719
<v Speaker 1>A lot of those manufacturers assemble stuff bound for the

53
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:12.960
<v Speaker 1>US in Mexico, which will be the ten percenter deal here.

54
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:17.000
<v Speaker 1>And again there's a lot of inventory currently in the US.

55
00:03:17.080 --> 00:03:20.280
<v Speaker 1>If you're on the fence about purchasing a TV, probably

56
00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:22.919
<v Speaker 1>would be better to do it sooner than waiting a

57
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:25.240
<v Speaker 1>month or two where it may go higher.

58
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all right, So the way I look at it

59
00:03:27.800 --> 00:03:31.400
<v Speaker 2>and Layman's terms, I'm gonna still walk into a store

60
00:03:31.919 --> 00:03:35.360
<v Speaker 2>and see what the price is. If it's affordable, then

61
00:03:35.400 --> 00:03:37.719
<v Speaker 2>I'll get it. If not, but that's if I need it.

62
00:03:37.800 --> 00:03:40.960
<v Speaker 1>A lot of gamers looking forward to the Nintendo Switch too,

63
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:43.199
<v Speaker 1>Is that price going to be affected. Well, we already

64
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:45.879
<v Speaker 1>know it's launching June fifth, and it's going to cost

65
00:03:45.960 --> 00:03:49.479
<v Speaker 1>four hundred and fifty dollars, which is up substantially from

66
00:03:49.520 --> 00:03:53.240
<v Speaker 1>the three hundred dollars price point for the predecessor. That

67
00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>price point is not going to change. Japanese run Nintendo

68
00:03:58.479 --> 00:04:00.400
<v Speaker 1>says that it will still be a price said four

69
00:04:00.479 --> 00:04:04.280
<v Speaker 1>hundred and fifty dollars. So there's that. And then what

70
00:04:04.360 --> 00:04:08.520
<v Speaker 1>about the TikTok situation? How's that going to be affected

71
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:11.680
<v Speaker 1>with things being ratcheted up between the US and China.

72
00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:16.680
<v Speaker 1>Deal is still on the table, according to administration. They

73
00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:19.600
<v Speaker 1>extended the deadline another seventy five days ahead of all

74
00:04:19.639 --> 00:04:24.120
<v Speaker 1>this air of stuff. And uh, this may be one

75
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:25.959
<v Speaker 1>of these deals that comes down to push comes to

76
00:04:26.000 --> 00:04:28.879
<v Speaker 1>shove at some point. I don't I don't think Bite

77
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Dances just want to goin to give up the US market.

78
00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:35.759
<v Speaker 1>But yet you still need China to sign off on

79
00:04:35.800 --> 00:04:37.399
<v Speaker 1>the deal, So they're kind of at a you know,

80
00:04:37.480 --> 00:04:40.759
<v Speaker 1>a head's there, so keep an eye on that one

81
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:41.279
<v Speaker 1>as well.

82
00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:44.399
<v Speaker 2>And this is blood he texted in goodbye Timu.

83
00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:50.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, that the the Chinese Amazon of sorts. They're

84
00:04:50.040 --> 00:04:55.360
<v Speaker 1>they're probably not real happy right now. This is interesting.

85
00:04:55.480 --> 00:05:01.600
<v Speaker 1>Jeff Bezos is apparently funding a secretive ev startup based

86
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:05.000
<v Speaker 1>out of Michigan called Slate Auto that could start production

87
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:08.560
<v Speaker 1>as soon as next year timing on this. Apparently this

88
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:11.879
<v Speaker 1>has been in the works in evolving since twenty twenty

89
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:14.399
<v Speaker 1>two and now they're geting ready to fire up production.

90
00:05:14.800 --> 00:05:17.600
<v Speaker 1>This may be an example of striking while the iron's hot.

91
00:05:17.680 --> 00:05:21.120
<v Speaker 1>With all the Tesla controversy that's going on right now,

92
00:05:21.439 --> 00:05:24.360
<v Speaker 1>you see an opportunity in business, you got to jump

93
00:05:24.399 --> 00:05:27.040
<v Speaker 1>in and take it when you can. Right So, we'll

94
00:05:27.040 --> 00:05:29.720
<v Speaker 1>see if you start hearing more about Slate Auto in

95
00:05:29.800 --> 00:05:32.800
<v Speaker 1>their EV line that they're going to be offering. And

96
00:05:32.959 --> 00:05:36.600
<v Speaker 1>finally we have this for Virginia. High school students have

97
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:41.079
<v Speaker 1>created an app to identify oral cancer. It uses a

98
00:05:41.120 --> 00:05:43.480
<v Speaker 1>smartphone to take a picture of a person's mouth and

99
00:05:43.519 --> 00:05:46.600
<v Speaker 1>then scans the image and produces information on whether or

100
00:05:46.680 --> 00:05:49.920
<v Speaker 1>not there's a cancerous tumor inside. The app uses AI

101
00:05:50.040 --> 00:05:54.079
<v Speaker 1>and Company. The app uses AI and compares the person's

102
00:05:54.120 --> 00:05:56.439
<v Speaker 1>picture to images of hundreds of others that are healthy

103
00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:58.560
<v Speaker 1>or have benign and malignant tumors.

104
00:05:58.959 --> 00:05:59.920
<v Speaker 2>That's pretty cool.

105
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:03.560
<v Speaker 1>The students say they're working on getting FDA approval to

106
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.680
<v Speaker 1>get the app into the App Store and play Store.

107
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:10.000
<v Speaker 1>They also plan to make the app free. Good for them, Yeah,

108
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:14.560
<v Speaker 1>good for them, Well done. All right, So that's what

109
00:06:14.600 --> 00:06:18.519
<v Speaker 1>we got for check it out this week. Please stick around.
