I'll have that, hag.

00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:17.719
You just don't get it.

00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:20.079
I don't have your head for science, so I'm not
7
00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:22.120

They're going to.

I'm sorry, rock password.
18
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:47.159
Where it t what actually works for you?
19
00:00:47.479 --> 00:00:50.240
Where it so? Y'all just threw away my tagline.
20
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:53.280
We're still talking in it talking it through.
21
00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:56.359
The tagline that I had was the only time you
22
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.240
need a three sixties in a dunk contest? Yeah, all right,
23
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:03.520
We're it actually works for you? He guy, how are
24
00:01:03.520 --> 00:01:03.799
you man?
25
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:04.879
I'm all right, Brian.
26
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:07.760
We got a lot to cover on.
27
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:09.680
The tech front, but I would be remiss if we
28
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:12.920
didn't start with well, we talked about how tech applies
29
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:17.599
to the headlines today. And yesterday was a tragic day.
30
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:22.359
And yesterday we all watched, and well, I shouldn't say
31
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:25.040
we all watched, but yesterday a lot of folks watched
32
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:28.120
in real time and repeatedly and later on and through
33
00:01:28.120 --> 00:01:31.200
the evening, we watched someone get murdered on television. We
34
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:35.439
watched an assassination on on our phones, on our computer screens.
35
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:40.959
I want to start there. The video was graphic, the
36
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:44.640
video was disturbing, and the video was ever present.
37
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.200
We we live in a world where everything is now
38
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:52.480
on on a screen somethings. Yes, there is no anonymity
39
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:56.000
you everything you do out there, somebody's got a phone,
40
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:59.760
somebody's got a camera, whether it's outside your house, on
41
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:00.760
your ring.
42
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:03.959
Or ring rebel or or or a security video on
43
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:04.480
a subway.
44
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:09.159
Security cameras are everywhere, and and so whatever you do,
45
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:13.439
more than likely is a really good chance that you're
46
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:15.039
on your on camera somewhere.
47
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.039
Yes, And I understand that completely and to an extent
48
00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:21.360
a lot of it. I welcome what I wonder here
49
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:24.039
is And and if you're at a public event, if
50
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:26.439
you are the speaker at a public event, and there
51
00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:29.919
are a couple thousand people out there to hear you speak.
52
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:33.199
There's going to be dozens dozens of live feeds.
53
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:36.199
Absolutely, yes, dozens, if not more, dozens of live feeds,
54
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:39.240
and even more people recording for later playback, to make
55
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:42.520
their reels and whatnot.
56
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:47.960
Is there a way to get rid of the video faster? No,
57
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:52.280
we could do everything faster. We could for the exact reason.
58
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.879
If there was just say ten people out of the
59
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:57.240
if I don't know there were five hundred people they're
60
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:00.719
watching him. If there were just ten people, I don't
61
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:03.800
have no idea how many were there. But let's say
62
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:07.759
the worth one thousand people and just ten of them
63
00:03:08.360 --> 00:03:12.280
had the cameras on and they had their phones out
64
00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:16.039
and they were recording this. Well, you can't go and
65
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:19.479
eliminate those ten people's videos. I mean, if you had
66
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:22.879
from ten different angles and they all post that as
67
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.840
soon as they start posting it, there's not an algorithm
68
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:28.560
alive that's gonna be able to take down all of
69
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:31.080
that video that quickly. Because as soon as you take
70
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:33.479
it down from this person's feed, well they're just gonna
71
00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:35.879
post it over here, and it's gonna get posted and
72
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:36.800
posted and posted.
73
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:39.159
Then you keep taking it down here. Okay, let me
74
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:43.159
let me give you the comparison here. Okay, if okay,
75
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:46.919
if you're watching the show on Facebook Live or on YouTube, okay,
76
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.960
you're not gonna hear the bumper music coming back in right, right,
77
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:52.000
because if you're watching the show on Facebook Live or
78
00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:55.319
on YouTube, we will get flagged and our video will
79
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:59.800
get muted and suppressed because we will have quote unquote
80
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:06.560
copyright infringement. Sure, and Facebook and YouTube can detect that. Well,
81
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:09.759
not YouTube, but Facebook can detect that immediately. Yes, we
82
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:12.319
will get muted and flagged immediately, and we will get
83
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:15.120
an alert saying you have been muted, you violated this copyright.
84
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:16.000
Blah blah blah.
85
00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:22.279
That happens if the algorithm, if anything in the program
86
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:26.240
can detect that JP played something by Sam and Dave.
87
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.720
Why can't it detect? Okay, here's the video of Charlie Kirk.
88
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.639
When you see these this video here, shut.
89
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:38.199
It down because you're talking about Facebook. You're not talking
90
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:41.759
about the thousands of other streaming platforms that live out there,
91
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:44.959
and all the other platforms may not have the same
92
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:46.839
standards Okay that a Facebook will.
93
00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:48.639
Can we do this? Then?
94
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:52.720
The major every every video that I got came from
95
00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:57.160
a major social was funneled through a major social media outlet.
96
00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:59.800
I saw this by clicking through Facebook. I saw this
97
00:04:59.839 --> 00:05:02.519
by clicking Twitter. It was it was like, once you
98
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:05.040
clicked it once, that's all it was gonna feed you.
99
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:06.839
Does Twitter have the standard to take it down?
100
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:08.240
That's what That's what I want to know.
101
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:09.639
I don't think it does.
102
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.680
Twitter has the standard to take down hate speech on
103
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:13.560
a regular.
104
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:17.600
Basis, And and so this gets back to what does
105
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:22.360
But you know what is what is Twitter's standards? You
106
00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:25.600
know for having somebody killed in cold blood?
107
00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:27.680
Right? You know? Or well? And I don't want to
108
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:28.720
make it just about Twitter.
109
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:34.000
Unbelievably, all the other streaming platforms, whether it's Snap or
110
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:38.920
or discord or any one of the places where you
111
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:41.000
could put it. Once it was on the Drudge Report,
112
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:45.839
it's out there, I mean in CNN had it in Fox.
113
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:48.399
CNN. Uh.
114
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:51.120
To CNN's credit, when the shot hit the neck, they
115
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:54.560
blurred that part, right, you didn't see the gushing from
116
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:57.040
that part. So but I will give them credit for that.
117
00:05:57.160 --> 00:06:02.360
Same with Fox. And when it comes to the individual websites,
118
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:04.639
when it comes to the tmzs of the world and
119
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:07.720
the drudges of the world. I have a separate beef
120
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:11.399
with their editorial discretion. There is none right. How many
121
00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:13.439
clicks can they get right? But when you have a
122
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:17.800
social media outlet that if a social media outlet can
123
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:21.399
tell when we're playing Marvin Gay, a social media outlet
124
00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:24.800
can tell the replication of the images.
125
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:28.360
I'm not going to disagree with you would think that
126
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.000
Facebook could have taken it down as quickly or quicker
127
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:37.360
than they did. But I don't know the inner workings
128
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:40.240
of the algorithms of how Facebook works and does something like.
129
00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:43.439
I know what their standards are. They talk about how
130
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.240
it's forty eight hours that they have to be able
131
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:48.879
to review something to take it down. In the t's
132
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.560
and c's. When you go through that fourteen thousand words
133
00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:55.639
when you accept Facebook, there's forty eight hours that they
134
00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:57.680
have to review a video before they have to take
135
00:06:57.720 --> 00:06:58.079
it down.
136
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:02.360
Three years ago, dude over off at Sherwood murdered a
137
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:04.800
woman on Facebook Live. They were able to get it
138
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:09.439
down in fifteen minutes, So I just I guess.
139
00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:12.319
But it was up for fifteen minutes that people grab Well.
140
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:14.079
Okay, but there's a reasonable little out there, like if
141
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:17.759
Charlie Kirk was up there for fifteen minutes or with
142
00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:19.720
the amount of replication it was out there, if it
143
00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:21.759
took an hour to get this done. My point is,
144
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:23.879
like this happened in the early for us, the early
145
00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:30.600
afternoon was around two o'clock our time. I'm thereabouts by
146
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:33.879
eight pm. I'm still seeing the video like that. To me,
147
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:37.600
that's ridiculous and it's it feels was.
148
00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:39.839
It but was it from the exact same source using
149
00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:42.920
or was it people reposting it? It's times reposting, and
150
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:46.120
so every time somebody reposted, if Facebook takes it down
151
00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:50.079
fifteen minutes later, but ten thousand people have posted it
152
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.560
and then continues to repost it and repost it and
153
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:56.879
repost it. Facebook is fighting there there. They're always going
154
00:07:56.959 --> 00:08:00.560
to be fifteen to thirty minutes behind everybody. And I'm
155
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:04.360
I'm not disagreeing with you, and that I wouldn't. I
156
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:07.000
hate the fact that that video is out there at all,
157
00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:10.959
but it's out there. It's now part of our our history,
158
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:14.319
and we're gonna look at that video forever. And I
159
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:16.600
mean the same way that the Pruder film is out
160
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:19.160
there with Kennedy the way he was shot. People still
161
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:22.319
go back and look at that and see his brains splattering.
162
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:25.759
Interesting take. I like that take. You you're spot on
163
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:26.279
with that end.
164
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:33.720
Yes, okay, not comparing Charlie, No no, no, no, no no, but.
165
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:36.799
You you you watch someone die on on on camera.
166
00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:37.519
You like that?
167
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:42.240
There are blatant similarities right there, A very gruesome assassination
168
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:42.960
on both fronts.
169
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:49.039
Yes, I don't know if time changes that. I know
170
00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:51.759
clarity of picture does though, what you think?
171
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:56.200
Yeah, you can't break this down, you know, uh, clip
172
00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:59.279
by clip on on on the on the way they
173
00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:03.519
did with that eight millimeter filmed down. This is in
174
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:04.840
four K. You can see this.
175
00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:08.840
What does computer literacy mean in twenty twenty five? We're
176
00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:10.240
gonna get to that in a minute. We got Haggy
177
00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:14.559
Davison here, and I just it's when we have headlines
178
00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:17.960
this big, in stories this big, it's important to utilize
179
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:22.799
the the the the branded segments we have because this
180
00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:25.320
is this is the literal crossing over of sure text
181
00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:30.200
in the headlines. And you added this topic inadvertently when
182
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:33.519
you walked in, hag guy, and I'm an oucher right now, okay,
183
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:36.240
when you sat down, you said you may or may
184
00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:38.399
not believe this, Brian, But before yesterday I kne who
185
00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:42.519
Charlie Kirk was, and I find that us astounding. You
186
00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:46.879
and I were completely different agents a lot of similar interests.
187
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:52.559
Both those things are fair are patterns and habits online
188
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:55.200
are completely different. And I think this is a good
189
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:58.559
example of how algorithms feed what you want, what you crave,
190
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.759
whether you think our you crave them or not. The
191
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:05.799
algorithm is here for you, uh to to to give
192
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:11.559
you what you've sought before. Charlie Kirk, Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh,
193
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.120
these guys all over my couple of others as well.
194
00:10:14.159 --> 00:10:16.039
I don't want to just limit to those three. These
195
00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:18.639
guys all over my feed, all over.
196
00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:19.919
I've heard of Ben Shapiro.
197
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.559
Okay, well you better have. Ben Shapiro was on the
198
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:25.799
show yesterday. So he's got a new book out called
199
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:28.600
Lines and Scavengers. Fantastic read. Grab it if you can't.
200
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:29.879
That's one of the reason why I've heard of So.
201
00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:33.240
Yeah, they because.
202
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:35.279
He was on your show, not because of his book, yes.
203
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:38.879
Uh, but so my feed's gonna be full of.
204
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.679
Not just pundits, but interaction, you know, exchanges of ideas
205
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:47.840
between you know, political sides. Now, when it comes to that,
206
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:51.000
you find that to be a colossal like not a
207
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:53.759
waste of time, but just it's an exhaustion of energy.
208
00:10:53.879 --> 00:10:56.559
It's repulsive to me. I don't want to get into
209
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:00.559
the social political debates and and i've so when I
210
00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:03.559
when I see those, I immediately I defriend people who
211
00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:06.840
try to get into that with me. I that's not
212
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:09.759
what I'm interested in at all, because there's no way
213
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:10.720
to win that argument.
214
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:13.720
Right, Well, yeah, exactly, no one wants. I don't. I
215
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:16.559
don't engage in comments. I don't take.
216
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.639
People down, I don't destroy anyone like I don't do
217
00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:23.000
those things. But when it comes to just the raw
218
00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:26.360
Feed video and Charlie Kirk above all the rest of them,
219
00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:30.360
because he was more interactive, he was more interested in
220
00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:33.759
what the person had to say before responding, and as
221
00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:36.000
opposed to having his response and waiting for me to
222
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:36.919
be done talking.
223
00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:39.840
Seek first to understand before being understood, Yes, or or
224
00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:42.960
one of seven seven habits of highly effective people from
225
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:43.600
Stephen Covey.
226
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.799
Yeah, or, or, as Ted Lasso quoted Walt Webman, be
227
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:51.200
curious not judgmental. Okay, so it's same, it's the same quote,
228
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:55.840
but I think it's interesting how yesterday was an example
229
00:11:55.879 --> 00:11:57.279
of how algorithms do work.
230
00:11:57.600 --> 00:11:59.879
Yes, they do. They know you better than you do.
231
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:01.759
What was your feed full of yesterday?
232
00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:07.919
Sports? Okay, that's mostly what my that in technology, tech
233
00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:09.039
news and sports.
234
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:14.320
Yeah, I just it was to me, it was completely inescapable. Yes,
235
00:12:14.519 --> 00:12:17.360
like to the point where it took over anything I've
236
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:20.320
searched for in the last two weeks gone. I mean,
237
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:23.720
I'm sure it'll creep back in now, but like anything
238
00:12:23.720 --> 00:12:25.519
I search forth for the last two weeks, just going
239
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:28.600
because I sought more information. I wanted more information. If
240
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:31.240
I saw something about Charlie Kirk, Charlie Kirk, I was
241
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:34.159
clicking on it to find more like and I need
242
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:34.840
more info.
243
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.360
And so I'll spend more time on LinkedIn than I
244
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.440
do anything. And so I'm looking, you know, I'm getting
245
00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:46.240
cybersecurity feeds and news about technology on LinkedIn, not about
246
00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:51.000
political pundits on LinkedIn. So that's what my feed gives me.
247
00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:53.320
It's you know, or if I go back over to Facebook,
248
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:57.759
I'm here's LSU football, here's the Saints, here's NFL news,
249
00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:00.679
those kinds of things. Yeah, that's what I'm interested in,
250
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:03.080
And so that's what the algorithms feed from me.
251
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:07.440
Yeah, all right, we got about three minutes left. I
252
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:10.519
do want to dive into one topic that it led
253
00:13:10.559 --> 00:13:11.799
your show. I guess it was the top of the
254
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:14.759
top of the prep page. So what does computer literacy
255
00:13:14.799 --> 00:13:15.960
mean in twenty twenty five.
256
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:19.600
It's a fascinating question because if you go back twenty
257
00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:23.519
five years ago to the year two thousand, most people
258
00:13:23.559 --> 00:13:26.240
had not gotten their first computer yet they were If
259
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:30.200
they had, they really they were computer littered becausey knew
260
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:33.159
how to turn it on. You go back fifteen years
261
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:37.000
ago to twenty ten, people were not even really using
262
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:41.639
Google yet, right, they were still asking gens jeeves and
263
00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:44.840
Yahoo's search was the big thing. They knew how to
264
00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:48.600
send emails. In twenty ten they could use word or
265
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:53.679
Excel kind of. You go back five years ago and
266
00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:58.159
people were learning how to use virtual meetings. Zoom became.
267
00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:01.200
You know, if you couldn't use Zoom, you were pure illiterate,
268
00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:04.600
right you know, Well, now five years later, okay, we
269
00:14:04.679 --> 00:14:06.200
all were mostly comfortable.
270
00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:07.200
Hey you're muted?
271
00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:09.799
You know, Hey, can you turn your camera on? Is
272
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:14.039
the big thing. So the the idea of being computer literate,
273
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:16.919
it's not getting into a firewall or knowing how to
274
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:18.840
how to set up a server. It's how to use
275
00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:23.120
your computer in Now AI is you know how well
276
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:25.799
do you know how to use Artificial intelligence? Is where
277
00:14:25.960 --> 00:14:27.720
computer literacy is today?
278
00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:30.679
Okay, which which to a lot of people means how
279
00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:33.159
to get really good crockpot recipes from chat GPT.
280
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:35.279
And that's fine.
281
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:38.360
Well, if we're gonna write back to the top of
282
00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:40.399
me talking about misallocated resources.
283
00:14:40.440 --> 00:14:43.639
But if you're jumping into AI to ask it that, oh,
284
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:46.039
you're at least beginning to use the tool as opposed
285
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:47.799
to sticking your head in the sand and hoping AI
286
00:14:47.919 --> 00:14:51.399
goes away, because it's not. You know, if you're using
287
00:14:51.440 --> 00:14:56.720
AI multiple times a day to help, you know, expedite
288
00:14:56.759 --> 00:15:00.399
your your productivity. Okay, Now it's a it's a business tool.
289
00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:03.879
If you're just using it to find that crockpot recipe
290
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.960
or that chicken pasta recipe that you're looking for, okay, great.
291
00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:11.399
But if you're if you're afraid to turn on chat bet,
292
00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:16.519
if you're afraid to go to Google, Gemini, Anthropics, Claude, perplexity,
293
00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:21.120
go through any one of the LM's, then you're you're
294
00:15:21.240 --> 00:15:24.679
way behind the times, you're not being computer literate if
295
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:27.440
you're not learning to use the current tools of the day.
296
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:30.600
For what it's worth, every one of those crockpot recipes
297
00:15:30.600 --> 00:15:33.399
starts with a block of cream cheese, So just arm
298
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:34.799
yourself beforehand.
299
00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:37.799
And velveta, how do you yes a lot of what
300
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:38.720
the velveta like?
301
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:45.039
We got thirty seconds left when you're walking down that
302
00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:49.200
path and you're engaging with AI, avoiding it becoming a crutch.
303
00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:55.279
How so in thirty seconds, Yeah, I know. Using it
304
00:15:55.320 --> 00:15:57.799
is how you think about how you're using the technology
305
00:15:57.840 --> 00:16:01.200
instead of it's not being you know, mastering the technology.
306
00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:05.080
It's how you think about the way you use technology.
307
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:08.639
You're using your computers, and that's that's the basics.

00:00:10.400 --> 00:00:14.839
Guy Davis talks technology news using language even Brian can understand.
5
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:17.719
You just don't get it.
6
00:00:17.960 --> 00:00:20.079
I don't have your head for science, so I'm not
7
00:00:20.120 --> 00:00:22.120
gonna be able to help much. For a full serving,

Where it so? Y'all just threw away my tagline.

We're still talking in it talking it through.
21
00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:56.359
The tagline that I had was the only time you
22
00:00:56.399 --> 00:00:59.240
need a three sixties in a dunk contest? Yeah, all right,
23

you man?
25
00:01:04.079 --> 00:01:04.879
I'm all right, Brian.
26
00:01:06.680 --> 00:01:07.760
We got a lot to cover on.
27
00:01:07.719 --> 00:01:09.680
The tech front, but I would be remiss if we
28
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:12.920
didn't start with well, we talked about how tech applies
29
00:01:12.959 --> 00:01:17.599
to the headlines today. And yesterday was a tragic day.
30
00:01:17.640 --> 00:01:22.359
And yesterday we all watched, and well, I shouldn't say
31
00:01:22.359 --> 00:01:25.040
we all watched, but yesterday a lot of folks watched
32
00:01:25.079 --> 00:01:28.120
in real time and repeatedly and later on and through
33
00:01:28.120 --> 00:01:31.200
the evening, we watched someone get murdered on television. We
34
00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:35.439
watched an assassination on on our phones, on our computer screens.
35
00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:40.959
I want to start there. The video was graphic, the
36
00:01:41.079 --> 00:01:44.640
video was disturbing, and the video was ever present.
37
00:01:45.480 --> 00:01:48.200
We we live in a world where everything is now
38
00:01:48.640 --> 00:01:52.480
on on a screen somethings. Yes, there is no anonymity
39
00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:56.000
you everything you do out there, somebody's got a phone,
40
00:01:56.079 --> 00:01:59.760
somebody's got a camera, whether it's outside your house, on
41
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:00.760
your ring.
42
00:02:00.680 --> 00:02:03.959
Or ring rebel or or or a security video on
43
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:04.480
a subway.
44
00:02:04.480 --> 00:02:09.159
Security cameras are everywhere, and and so whatever you do,
45
00:02:09.800 --> 00:02:13.439
more than likely is a really good chance that you're
46
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:15.039
on your on camera somewhere.
47
00:02:15.159 --> 00:02:18.039
Yes, And I understand that completely and to an extent
48
00:02:18.280 --> 00:02:21.360
a lot of it. I welcome what I wonder here
49
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:24.039
is And and if you're at a public event, if
50
00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:26.439
you are the speaker at a public event, and there
51
00:02:26.479 --> 00:02:29.919
are a couple thousand people out there to hear you speak.
52
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:33.199
There's going to be dozens dozens of live feeds.
53
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:36.199
Absolutely, yes, dozens, if not more, dozens of live feeds,
54
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:39.240
and even more people recording for later playback, to make
55
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:42.520
their reels and whatnot.
56
00:02:43.439 --> 00:02:47.960
Is there a way to get rid of the video faster? No,
57
00:02:49.599 --> 00:02:52.280
we could do everything faster. We could for the exact reason.
58
00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:54.879
If there was just say ten people out of the
59
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:57.240
if I don't know there were five hundred people they're
60
00:02:57.280 --> 00:03:00.719
watching him. If there were just ten people, I don't
61
00:03:00.719 --> 00:03:03.800
have no idea how many were there. But let's say
62
00:03:03.800 --> 00:03:07.759
the worth one thousand people and just ten of them
63
00:03:08.360 --> 00:03:12.280
had the cameras on and they had their phones out
64
00:03:12.280 --> 00:03:16.039
and they were recording this. Well, you can't go and
65
00:03:16.199 --> 00:03:19.479
eliminate those ten people's videos. I mean, if you had
66
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:22.879
from ten different angles and they all post that as
67
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:25.840
soon as they start posting it, there's not an algorithm
68
00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:28.560
alive that's gonna be able to take down all of
69
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:31.080
that video that quickly. Because as soon as you take
70
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:33.479
it down from this person's feed, well they're just gonna
71
00:03:33.479 --> 00:03:35.879
post it over here, and it's gonna get posted and
72
00:03:35.919 --> 00:03:36.800
posted and posted.
73
00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:39.159
Then you keep taking it down here. Okay, let me
74
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:43.159
let me give you the comparison here. Okay, if okay,
75
00:03:43.199 --> 00:03:46.919
if you're watching the show on Facebook Live or on YouTube, okay,
76
00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:49.960
you're not gonna hear the bumper music coming back in right, right,
77
00:03:50.080 --> 00:03:52.000
because if you're watching the show on Facebook Live or
78
00:03:52.039 --> 00:03:55.319
on YouTube, we will get flagged and our video will
79
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:59.800
get muted and suppressed because we will have quote unquote
80
00:04:01.159 --> 00:04:06.560
copyright infringement. Sure, and Facebook and YouTube can detect that. Well,
81
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:09.759
not YouTube, but Facebook can detect that immediately. Yes, we
82
00:04:09.840 --> 00:04:12.319
will get muted and flagged immediately, and we will get
83
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:15.120
an alert saying you have been muted, you violated this copyright.
84
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:16.000
Blah blah blah.
85
00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:22.279
That happens if the algorithm, if anything in the program
86
00:04:22.399 --> 00:04:26.240
can detect that JP played something by Sam and Dave.
87
00:04:27.120 --> 00:04:30.720
Why can't it detect? Okay, here's the video of Charlie Kirk.
88
00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:34.639
When you see these this video here, shut.
89
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:38.199
It down because you're talking about Facebook. You're not talking
90
00:04:38.199 --> 00:04:41.759
about the thousands of other streaming platforms that live out there,
91
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:44.959
and all the other platforms may not have the same
92
00:04:45.000 --> 00:04:46.839
standards Okay that a Facebook will.
93
00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:48.639
Can we do this? Then?
94
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:52.720
The major every every video that I got came from
95
00:04:52.759 --> 00:04:57.160
a major social was funneled through a major social media outlet.
96
00:04:57.360 --> 00:04:59.800
I saw this by clicking through Facebook. I saw this
97
00:04:59.839 --> 00:05:02.519
by clicking Twitter. It was it was like, once you
98
00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:05.040
clicked it once, that's all it was gonna feed you.
99
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:06.839
Does Twitter have the standard to take it down?
100
00:05:07.079 --> 00:05:08.240
That's what That's what I want to know.
101
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:09.639
I don't think it does.
102
00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:12.680
Twitter has the standard to take down hate speech on
103
00:05:12.720 --> 00:05:13.560
a regular.
104
00:05:13.240 --> 00:05:17.600
Basis, And and so this gets back to what does
105
00:05:18.399 --> 00:05:22.360
But you know what is what is Twitter's standards? You
106
00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:25.600
know for having somebody killed in cold blood?
107
00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:27.680
Right? You know? Or well? And I don't want to
108
00:05:27.680 --> 00:05:28.720
make it just about Twitter.
109
00:05:30.360 --> 00:05:34.000
Unbelievably, all the other streaming platforms, whether it's Snap or
110
00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:38.920
or discord or any one of the places where you
111
00:05:38.920 --> 00:05:41.000
could put it. Once it was on the Drudge Report,
112
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:45.839
it's out there, I mean in CNN had it in Fox.
113
00:05:47.279 --> 00:05:48.399
CNN. Uh.
114
00:05:48.480 --> 00:05:51.120
To CNN's credit, when the shot hit the neck, they
115
00:05:51.199 --> 00:05:54.560
blurred that part, right, you didn't see the gushing from
116
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:57.040
that part. So but I will give them credit for that.
117
00:05:57.160 --> 00:06:02.360
Same with Fox. And when it comes to the individual websites,
118
00:06:02.360 --> 00:06:04.639
when it comes to the tmzs of the world and
119
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:07.720
the drudges of the world. I have a separate beef
120
00:06:07.839 --> 00:06:11.399
with their editorial discretion. There is none right. How many
121
00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:13.439
clicks can they get right? But when you have a
122
00:06:13.480 --> 00:06:17.800
social media outlet that if a social media outlet can
123
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:21.399
tell when we're playing Marvin Gay, a social media outlet
124
00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:24.800
can tell the replication of the images.
125
00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:28.360
I'm not going to disagree with you would think that
126
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:32.000
Facebook could have taken it down as quickly or quicker
127
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:37.360
than they did. But I don't know the inner workings
128
00:06:37.360 --> 00:06:40.240
of the algorithms of how Facebook works and does something like.
129
00:06:40.279 --> 00:06:43.439
I know what their standards are. They talk about how
130
00:06:43.639 --> 00:06:46.240
it's forty eight hours that they have to be able
131
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:48.879
to review something to take it down. In the t's
132
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:51.560
and c's. When you go through that fourteen thousand words
133
00:06:51.560 --> 00:06:55.639
when you accept Facebook, there's forty eight hours that they
134
00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:57.680
have to review a video before they have to take
135
00:06:57.720 --> 00:06:58.079
it down.
136
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:02.360
Three years ago, dude over off at Sherwood murdered a
137
00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:04.800
woman on Facebook Live. They were able to get it
138
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:09.439
down in fifteen minutes, So I just I guess.
139
00:07:09.240 --> 00:07:12.319
But it was up for fifteen minutes that people grab Well.
140
00:07:12.199 --> 00:07:14.079
Okay, but there's a reasonable little out there, like if
141
00:07:14.360 --> 00:07:17.759
Charlie Kirk was up there for fifteen minutes or with
142
00:07:17.879 --> 00:07:19.720
the amount of replication it was out there, if it
143
00:07:19.720 --> 00:07:21.759
took an hour to get this done. My point is,
144
00:07:21.800 --> 00:07:23.879
like this happened in the early for us, the early
145
00:07:23.920 --> 00:07:30.600
afternoon was around two o'clock our time. I'm thereabouts by
146
00:07:30.720 --> 00:07:33.879
eight pm. I'm still seeing the video like that. To me,
147
00:07:34.079 --> 00:07:37.600
that's ridiculous and it's it feels was.
148
00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:39.839
It but was it from the exact same source using
149
00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:42.920
or was it people reposting it? It's times reposting, and
150
00:07:42.959 --> 00:07:46.120
so every time somebody reposted, if Facebook takes it down
151
00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:50.079
fifteen minutes later, but ten thousand people have posted it
152
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.560
and then continues to repost it and repost it and
153
00:07:52.600 --> 00:07:56.879
repost it. Facebook is fighting there there. They're always going
154
00:07:56.959 --> 00:08:00.560
to be fifteen to thirty minutes behind everybody. And I'm
155
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:04.360
I'm not disagreeing with you, and that I wouldn't. I
156
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:07.000
hate the fact that that video is out there at all,
157
00:08:07.360 --> 00:08:10.959
but it's out there. It's now part of our our history,
158
00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:14.319
and we're gonna look at that video forever. And I
159
00:08:14.319 --> 00:08:16.600
mean the same way that the Pruder film is out
160
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:19.160
there with Kennedy the way he was shot. People still
161
00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:22.319
go back and look at that and see his brains splattering.
162
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:25.759
Interesting take. I like that take. You you're spot on
163
00:08:25.839 --> 00:08:26.279
with that end.
164
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:33.720
Yes, okay, not comparing Charlie, No no, no, no, no no, but.
165
00:08:33.799 --> 00:08:36.799
You you you watch someone die on on on camera.
166
00:08:36.840 --> 00:08:37.519
You like that?
167
00:08:37.960 --> 00:08:42.240
There are blatant similarities right there, A very gruesome assassination
168
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:42.960
on both fronts.
169
00:08:43.080 --> 00:08:49.039
Yes, I don't know if time changes that. I know
170
00:08:49.080 --> 00:08:51.759
clarity of picture does though, what you think?
171
00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:56.200
Yeah, you can't break this down, you know, uh, clip
172
00:08:56.240 --> 00:08:59.279
by clip on on on the on the way they
173
00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:03.519
did with that eight millimeter filmed down. This is in
174
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:04.840
four K. You can see this.
175
00:09:06.519 --> 00:09:08.840
What does computer literacy mean in twenty twenty five? We're
176
00:09:08.840 --> 00:09:10.240
gonna get to that in a minute. We got Haggy
177
00:09:10.279 --> 00:09:14.559
Davison here, and I just it's when we have headlines
178
00:09:14.600 --> 00:09:17.960
this big, in stories this big, it's important to utilize
179
00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:22.799
the the the the branded segments we have because this
180
00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:25.320
is this is the literal crossing over of sure text
181
00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:30.200
in the headlines. And you added this topic inadvertently when
182
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:33.519
you walked in, hag guy, and I'm an oucher right now, okay,
183
00:09:33.840 --> 00:09:36.240
when you sat down, you said you may or may
184
00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:38.399
not believe this, Brian, But before yesterday I kne who
185
00:09:38.440 --> 00:09:42.519
Charlie Kirk was, and I find that us astounding. You
186
00:09:42.559 --> 00:09:46.879
and I were completely different agents a lot of similar interests.
187
00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:52.559
Both those things are fair are patterns and habits online
188
00:09:52.600 --> 00:09:55.200
are completely different. And I think this is a good
189
00:09:55.200 --> 00:09:58.559
example of how algorithms feed what you want, what you crave,
190
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:01.759
whether you think our you crave them or not. The
191
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:05.799
algorithm is here for you, uh to to to give
192
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:11.559
you what you've sought before. Charlie Kirk, Ben Shapiro, Matt Walsh,
193
00:10:11.919 --> 00:10:14.120
these guys all over my couple of others as well.
194
00:10:14.159 --> 00:10:16.039
I don't want to just limit to those three. These
195
00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:18.639
guys all over my feed, all over.
196
00:10:18.639 --> 00:10:19.919
I've heard of Ben Shapiro.
197
00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:22.559
Okay, well you better have. Ben Shapiro was on the
198
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:25.799
show yesterday. So he's got a new book out called
199
00:10:25.799 --> 00:10:28.600
Lines and Scavengers. Fantastic read. Grab it if you can't.
200
00:10:28.639 --> 00:10:29.879
That's one of the reason why I've heard of So.
201
00:10:30.039 --> 00:10:33.240
Yeah, they because.
202
00:10:33.000 --> 00:10:35.279
He was on your show, not because of his book, yes.
203
00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:38.879
Uh, but so my feed's gonna be full of.
204
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.679
Not just pundits, but interaction, you know, exchanges of ideas
205
00:10:44.759 --> 00:10:47.840
between you know, political sides. Now, when it comes to that,
206
00:10:48.639 --> 00:10:51.000
you find that to be a colossal like not a
207
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:53.759
waste of time, but just it's an exhaustion of energy.
208
00:10:53.879 --> 00:10:56.559
It's repulsive to me. I don't want to get into
209
00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:00.559
the social political debates and and i've so when I
210
00:11:00.639 --> 00:11:03.559
when I see those, I immediately I defriend people who
211
00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:06.840
try to get into that with me. I that's not
212
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:09.759
what I'm interested in at all, because there's no way
213
00:11:09.799 --> 00:11:10.720
to win that argument.
214
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:13.720
Right, Well, yeah, exactly, no one wants. I don't. I
215
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:16.559
don't engage in comments. I don't take.
216
00:11:16.440 --> 00:11:20.639
People down, I don't destroy anyone like I don't do
217
00:11:20.759 --> 00:11:23.000
those things. But when it comes to just the raw
218
00:11:23.039 --> 00:11:26.360
Feed video and Charlie Kirk above all the rest of them,
219
00:11:26.919 --> 00:11:30.360
because he was more interactive, he was more interested in
220
00:11:30.399 --> 00:11:33.759
what the person had to say before responding, and as
221
00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:36.000
opposed to having his response and waiting for me to
222
00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:36.919
be done talking.
223
00:11:36.720 --> 00:11:39.840
Seek first to understand before being understood, Yes, or or
224
00:11:40.039 --> 00:11:42.960
one of seven seven habits of highly effective people from
225
00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:43.600
Stephen Covey.
226
00:11:43.679 --> 00:11:46.799
Yeah, or, or, as Ted Lasso quoted Walt Webman, be
227
00:11:46.960 --> 00:11:51.200
curious not judgmental. Okay, so it's same, it's the same quote,
228
00:11:52.440 --> 00:11:55.840
but I think it's interesting how yesterday was an example
229
00:11:55.879 --> 00:11:57.279
of how algorithms do work.
230
00:11:57.600 --> 00:11:59.879
Yes, they do. They know you better than you do.
231
00:12:00.360 --> 00:12:01.759
What was your feed full of yesterday?
232
00:12:02.600 --> 00:12:07.919
Sports? Okay, that's mostly what my that in technology, tech
233
00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:09.039
news and sports.
234
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:14.320
Yeah, I just it was to me, it was completely inescapable. Yes,
235
00:12:14.519 --> 00:12:17.360
like to the point where it took over anything I've
236
00:12:17.360 --> 00:12:20.320
searched for in the last two weeks gone. I mean,
237
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:23.720
I'm sure it'll creep back in now, but like anything
238
00:12:23.720 --> 00:12:25.519
I search forth for the last two weeks, just going
239
00:12:25.519 --> 00:12:28.600
because I sought more information. I wanted more information. If
240
00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:31.240
I saw something about Charlie Kirk, Charlie Kirk, I was
241
00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:34.159
clicking on it to find more like and I need
242
00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:34.840
more info.
243
00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:37.360
And so I'll spend more time on LinkedIn than I
244
00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:40.440
do anything. And so I'm looking, you know, I'm getting
245
00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:46.240
cybersecurity feeds and news about technology on LinkedIn, not about
246
00:12:46.600 --> 00:12:51.000
political pundits on LinkedIn. So that's what my feed gives me.
247
00:12:51.080 --> 00:12:53.320
It's you know, or if I go back over to Facebook,
248
00:12:53.360 --> 00:12:57.759
I'm here's LSU football, here's the Saints, here's NFL news,
249
00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:00.679
those kinds of things. Yeah, that's what I'm interested in,
250
00:13:00.799 --> 00:13:03.080
And so that's what the algorithms feed from me.
251
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:07.440
Yeah, all right, we got about three minutes left. I
252
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:10.519
do want to dive into one topic that it led
253
00:13:10.559 --> 00:13:11.799
your show. I guess it was the top of the
254
00:13:12.159 --> 00:13:14.759
top of the prep page. So what does computer literacy
255
00:13:14.799 --> 00:13:15.960
mean in twenty twenty five.
256
00:13:16.759 --> 00:13:19.600
It's a fascinating question because if you go back twenty
257
00:13:19.679 --> 00:13:23.519
five years ago to the year two thousand, most people
258
00:13:23.559 --> 00:13:26.240
had not gotten their first computer yet they were If
259
00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:30.200
they had, they really they were computer littered becausey knew
260
00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:33.159
how to turn it on. You go back fifteen years
261
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:37.000
ago to twenty ten, people were not even really using
262
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:41.639
Google yet, right, they were still asking gens jeeves and
263
00:13:41.759 --> 00:13:44.840
Yahoo's search was the big thing. They knew how to
264
00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:48.600
send emails. In twenty ten they could use word or
265
00:13:48.639 --> 00:13:53.679
Excel kind of. You go back five years ago and
266
00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:58.159
people were learning how to use virtual meetings. Zoom became.
267
00:13:58.279 --> 00:14:01.200
You know, if you couldn't use Zoom, you were pure illiterate,
268
00:14:01.360 --> 00:14:04.600
right you know, Well, now five years later, okay, we
269
00:14:04.679 --> 00:14:06.200
all were mostly comfortable.
270
00:14:06.200 --> 00:14:07.200
Hey you're muted?
271
00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:09.799
You know, Hey, can you turn your camera on? Is
272
00:14:09.799 --> 00:14:14.039
the big thing. So the the idea of being computer literate,
273
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:16.919
it's not getting into a firewall or knowing how to
274
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:18.840
how to set up a server. It's how to use
275
00:14:18.879 --> 00:14:23.120
your computer in Now AI is you know how well
276
00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:25.799
do you know how to use Artificial intelligence? Is where
277
00:14:25.960 --> 00:14:27.720
computer literacy is today?
278
00:14:27.879 --> 00:14:30.679
Okay, which which to a lot of people means how
279
00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:33.159
to get really good crockpot recipes from chat GPT.
280
00:14:33.559 --> 00:14:35.279
And that's fine.
281
00:14:35.759 --> 00:14:38.360
Well, if we're gonna write back to the top of
282
00:14:38.360 --> 00:14:40.399
me talking about misallocated resources.
283
00:14:40.440 --> 00:14:43.639
But if you're jumping into AI to ask it that, oh,
284
00:14:43.639 --> 00:14:46.039
you're at least beginning to use the tool as opposed
285
00:14:46.080 --> 00:14:47.799
to sticking your head in the sand and hoping AI
286
00:14:47.919 --> 00:14:51.399
goes away, because it's not. You know, if you're using
287
00:14:51.440 --> 00:14:56.720
AI multiple times a day to help, you know, expedite
288
00:14:56.759 --> 00:15:00.399
your your productivity. Okay, Now it's a it's a business tool.
289
00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:03.879
If you're just using it to find that crockpot recipe
290
00:15:03.960 --> 00:15:07.960
or that chicken pasta recipe that you're looking for, okay, great.
291
00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:11.399
But if you're if you're afraid to turn on chat bet,
292
00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:16.519
if you're afraid to go to Google, Gemini, Anthropics, Claude, perplexity,
293
00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:21.120
go through any one of the LM's, then you're you're
294
00:15:21.240 --> 00:15:24.679
way behind the times, you're not being computer literate if
295
00:15:24.720 --> 00:15:27.440
you're not learning to use the current tools of the day.
296
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:30.600
For what it's worth, every one of those crockpot recipes
297
00:15:30.600 --> 00:15:33.399
starts with a block of cream cheese, So just arm
298
00:15:33.440 --> 00:15:34.799
yourself beforehand.
299
00:15:35.120 --> 00:15:37.799
And velveta, how do you yes a lot of what
300
00:15:37.840 --> 00:15:38.720
the velveta like?
301
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:45.039
We got thirty seconds left when you're walking down that
302
00:15:45.080 --> 00:15:49.200
path and you're engaging with AI, avoiding it becoming a crutch.
303
00:15:49.480 --> 00:15:55.279
How so in thirty seconds, Yeah, I know. Using it
304
00:15:55.320 --> 00:15:57.799
is how you think about how you're using the technology
305
00:15:57.840 --> 00:16:01.200
instead of it's not being you know, mastering the technology.
306
00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:05.080
It's how you think about the way you use technology.
307
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:08.639
You're using your computers, and that's that's the basics.
