Have you ever been in a cock bit before? Welcome the primary technology, the show about the technical that matters this week. Apple has big updates to final a pro eleven with things like transcribe the subtitles and more features.
Plus you find my features where you can share the location of items. Even with airlines, ChatGPT might be launching an Operator style large language model in the near future, and apple's rumored smart home hub could be coming very soon. The episode brought to you by moved and hello, fresh I, your host Stephen Roberts, and joining me international, where now on international podcast is my good friend Jessie and has a go .
over there is good though, just to be clear, this is the second and record, because we did one when I was in denmark.
Oh my god, an international pockets. I, even since ince may look at that, I have to talk about that because so far away, hello.
over there. Can you hear me? Okay, at least. I mean, yeah, come through.
I come through. Just find all the bits, all the bits to come and know this. You're in right?
Yeah, i'm in lisbon right now for web mmi web summit.
And Jason look very professionally. Send me a picture of him on a stage interviewing two important people. Everybody was very important in this picture. And the big that's a big stage.
That's an timidity that was in the arena. So this was one of the center stage like domain stage keynotes that I originally wasn't scheduled to do and then someone wasn't able to in there like, could you do this? And I was like, sure, i'm gonna there, do IT.
So that's like seeds ten or fifty thousand and to how many people? Ten thousand people. That IT was not full at the time, but IT was there was a lot of people. I mean, I don't have a glider at least is more than half, let's say that. So there's five, six.
seven thousand people. Yeah, that's also something. Now, this is your set up, but you know, ever recorded by a lake erected in a hotel room? And portugal is a nice set up. Yeah.
this is it's always weird when you're in a hotel room trying to figure out what's your background? Where's the light sources coming from? How do I I mean, I can't move this desk because it's connected to that long wood piece at the end is attached to the wall.
So i'm sitting at the end of the desk. My fears tuck underneath this chair that I and i'm actually hunched over just a little just to make sure that you can hear me. Okay, but these are the things we do for our primary tech audience.
So that's exactly right. And you know what else we do? I forgot to ask about the movie quote. That's the other thing we do regularly but have a big announcement we're onna get in a second. But do remember have ever been in a cockpit you know a movie that's I mean.
it's got to be an airplane .
movie like a movie about plane airplane I guard on airplane.
I just do good are which.
by the way, I think i'm serious because I think I know the answer to this. Jason, you have taken a second international flight, and the first time when you went to denmark, he did not where the apple vision pro even try IT well on the plane. Jason, on the second international flight, in our era of apple vision prod, you have IT. Did you wear IT now?
Did I have a vision pro? When I went on the first trip? I actually don't remember because I didn't get a reviewing unit immediately.
but I probably lot of you a lot of place I know that's true .
ah I did not take IT, I do not wear IT obviously I didn't take IT, I didn't wear IT. But listen OK, I I just have to .
say you are definitely the only person in this world who has both the vision pro uses a quote and quote every day, but has not warned on an airplane. I think you are the singular person that me.
that OK. So sten, this is not justification. I got an email, I like eleven, fifty and uh, tuesday, that my flight from detroit to boston, I was flying detroit to boston til lisbon, that that flight was delayed and I was only going na have about thirty one minutes in boston to catch my international flight to lisbon.
And like, that's no buy. no. So I switched my flight to fly detroit to jfk, to lisbon.
But IT meant I had to leave the house in fifteen, like immediately, like I had to go, because detroit airport is like seventy five minutes away. So i'm like, i'm to catch that. I got to go right now.
So IT is just, I mean, I brought my laptop. We're lucky as seriously, I like he just finish packing, got the email and I was out the door, so I didn't even go. I actually thought about taking IT with me. Now the other thing .
is I think .
about randomly, ly got upgraded, not randomly, but as a result of all this got upgraded to business has had I know this abt Stephen, new york to lisbon is a six and half hour fights, right? Okay, I ended a day o'clock in the morning and didn't go to bed until last night. And IT doesn't matter, but point is I wouldn't use IT anyway.
Even I brought IT because I want to sleep. I had to sleep the whole time like little. They tried to bring me food. No, please stop, interrupt, ting me with questions about food i'm going to sleep.
So you know, you need is like you needed a shirt, but that do not disturb but or something similar a while you're sleeping and you know what else you can get on a shirt now you like that transition.
like that that segway. I did not know where you're going.
but the time thank you. I don't well, just to close that loop. I just can't believe I tried IT .
on the plane yet to bring IT. So that's not true.
No, that's that's not sure you just lied. Anyway, I will tell you something that's not a lie. Big, huge announcement.
Primary technology. This show, primary tech show now has merch, merch. We're talking t shirts.
We're talking zipper parties. Heads coming very soon. We actually have merge that you can get right now.
The links are going to be in the shown. So you got a primary text out, F, M, slash, merge. And this is a huge thank you to our good friend, basic apple guy.
He has done all of these, and he is so gacaca ously put them on on bur because I don't know how to do that. And IT might not never happened if he was up to me, but here's what you can, here's what you can get. If you want to see these, you should go to the youtube gentle youtube 点 com slash APP primary tech show。
You can get A P T S T shirt and or zipp a party with our I in our iconium. P T S even has the colors from our pocket, our work, which is very cool. And what I think this can be a big hit.
You can get a battery percentage on t shirt or hoody OK if you want to get that battery percentage or let people know your social battery is at one percent, this is going be a great, a great option for you or or for my team. You get Better percentage off, still look like you have low battery. And I think I think it's going to be hit and also get the other guy, this is the best one, this is the best one.
You know, I I have aspirations that these will just go viral, but I can imagine like just culturally, people being like, you know, because being the other guys like a thing, it's like a mean you like the other guy, whatever, whatever. And so I think you can be funny. But IT was going to insta joke if you wear this out because it's the other day and I think that's amazing.
I don't know how i'm going to feel the first time I show up at some event somewhere and somebody is wearing this.
Listen.
I know i'm gna feel if I show up and someone's wearing a battery percentage of shirt.
let's know. I think also, I just go, go bye, go by by everything. It's supports basic apple guy, which was so gracious to make all these one of my just personal dreams I hopefully one of my dreams go to wwdc.
Maybe that will happen this year, we will see. But whenever I see the pod casters that i've been followed for years and their merch is being warned by someone at wwdc, I just want to see primary somewhere. I would love to see primary such a ddb.
But also, if you get this match, take self is everywhere. We're going to share every single photo you send, whether is via social media, which there's eighteen social media. Newark i'm trying to keep up with now to talk lue, go to our community primary tech or social dot primary technology anyway, emerges.
great. Thank you. Basic apple guy links down on the shower notes. Go get at all. Skate everything.
Yeah, before someone says this, yes, I could get these shirts and wear them to wwdc, but that's not what Stephen is. dark. No, no, no.
I just some like, yes, in the crowd, in the sea of people, I just want to see .
a battery percentage wearing a battery. sure.
If I hear that someone inside apple would be wonderful. But anyway, thank you. Very capable guy.
This is amazing. We now have merge. Heads are coming. He made some of those two, and you emerge ideas out there, listeners and viewers.
We'd love to hear IT put much is a dream come true for real. So thank you. Links in the show notes. Let's talk about some tech and technology. You know what I said like that was real forceful apple major announcement yesterday about final cut and logic pro. And I think final cut pro, really the exciting for logic pro, got like plugging search that has some a quantel room simulator. Are you an expert on that?
Have no idea.
Those would mean it's not about river. But anyway, if you use for new features there, i'm in final cut every day, every day. And so this a big updates, both for final cut on the mac and final cut on ipad and final cut camera.
So fka pro is now eleven. They turned IT up to eleven. Is a joke right there. Are that now you have transcribe the subtitles we should not talk about in the second.
Because this, I feel that I anyway transcribe to captions and you connect them a subtitles magnetic mask, which means you can like, select the subject and they will track IT just by a single click, and you can do things like learning IT or applying effects just to that magnetic mask that will stick to a subject, and also have special video editing, so you can make edit special video that you have captured on apple vision pro, on iphone fifteen pro and newer past worker improvements and final cut camera. The APP now has H V C and log recording after four k one twenty. Let previews and final cut for ipad as new live drawing inks.
So if you can live, draw the apple pencil and you will animated for you apple pencil pro haptics. So you will, you know do haptics while you're editing in such and the new content and new worker improvements like picture and pictures. So pretty big updates for final cup.
I do wish the transcribe to captions or subtitles that I mean, it's transcribing and in final cut, which is a big deal that something that adobe premier prose even able to transcribe and then even edit and like search the transcript IT does not appear to be that full fledge like it's not. You can edit obviously by the transcript and even exporting IT. You can just export a plane text file of IT because one of things I do is I transcribe my videos and run through ChatGPT for like tag ideas or whatever.
And you can get the S R T out like that S R T. But you can get just like a plane text file. So hopefully they adds more those features to, but it's great.
Next step in the direction of you y're calling IT A I features. They are all over this thing that only A I features. So, yeah, welcome up. great.
yeah. And I think some of this feels like it's meant to bring the lapped up, dust up version of final cut, the mac version of final cut up to what? Because they had already made some of these changes in, like ipad version.
And so I actually felt kind of we are like ipad version. A final cut doesn't get a lot of the features that the scope person does. But I had like them all I can support, like the final cut camera support that stuff. So there was a kind of this weird point back in may where final cut on the ipad had, like advanced farther that I had on the mac. And do you call IT out, I guess during the the man they're .
in the mac announcements .
where they kept highlighting final cut and you're like, I wonder what this means and now they finally told us what that means, but you did IT is kind of cool. You can run final cut now on the mac mini logic as well, which is kind of zarah the now that eight, seventeen pro was just the thing that pushed up. I still don't think you should do like that. Queen is too small. The ipad.
the ipad mini. And I, when I made the video for the ipad mini, literally just open final cut and start press play for the video to say, you can do this, but I would never actually at IT video yeah but .
there's a big leap between podcast editing and fair, right? And most I can can video editing in final a yeah.
And after i've tried multiple times to edit in final cut on the ipad APP because I was like this would be amazing when i'm traveling like you are now to just have my ipad and be able to edit and other kind of stuff. But it's just not not not for me.
it's really only good for like things like for example, if you wanted to take a horse zonal video dump IT in their turn IT into a vertical video and do that on your ipad, you're not actually making edit and stuff to IT. You're like I just need to do a thing to this video and I know final cut can do that.
The ipad is great for some of those things or less, you need you to trim something down so that IT was under a minute to share like but again, you can do all those things in, like the native photos, upper in cap cut, different places. So yeah, IT is kind of interesting. I would love you here if we have listeners who are actually using final cut on their on their ipad. And if that are not like high school students.
well, I know, I know a fact. Fernando silver, who makes videos over a nine to five mac, I think, uses IT exclusively, like he doesn't add video on his. And he came from the other video editing APP that was there.
What was I called the a luma fusion, is luma fusion before that. So a people are doing IT. I think Christa lolly, youtube R I believe he at its in final cut on his ipad as well come from moving fusion.
So people are doing IT, you know. But I also want to say so final cut camera is the free APP that lets you film like in log record or record like a next in less is D N all that. But before apple all announcements, I do want to give a shout out to keo.
It's the looks camera where the makers of the highlight camera, APP kino, is their video APP. And they updated their hap earlier in the day yesterday before apple's announcements, and they updated to have four k one twenty frames per second. We have a sixteen pro or pro max, and they have a Better this overall, just improve the whole thing and more lots and other kind of stuff.
So if you are looking for an APP and maybe you're not craze about the final cut camera or you just want to try a different kind of pro video recording APP, the black magic camera APP i've used before, and it's obviously very powerful, but IT feels little clunky to me and a little too complicated and key OS just in the perfect sweet pot for what i'm looking for. And so if you wanted to just experiment with some apps capturing IT to one time, purchase no, subscription no is pretty great. So i'm going to linked that in the shown notes.
Have .
people yeah.
what did you say? The name of .
the company is looks camera a .
finally said, but what I look, I thinks definitely did.
Here's that. I don't know. People know I have a music degree, okay? And back in high school and college, we song a lot of later, okay? And one of the things you think is requiems, and I know that looks at ten, say, what? I mean, a camera APP.
I just want to to be careful way. It's also based .
on the german, where they're about the other languages.
Did you hear the interview um with sebastian? And then was that on the coder maybe .
or was that on the verge in the appear? So maybe was a verge cast episode.
but IT was great. The two of them did not agree on how to say cano.
Well, hell and high light they were like that how light they said, yeah, however comes out so seems like they they're not very precious by o it's not kind of I know .
that is definitely he was the name of the was like.
yeah and I said, how do you say IT .
hello .
hi ideas what I say hey.
I do not like a sounds .
good they don't get right but I was .
going to just say I think the the final cut for camera APP is really just meant to be like the killer APP for that is if you want to set up three iphones, use your ipad in doing multi cam like live and and that's really the because really and actually you know didn't exist at the time.
I don't think and really IT was sort of a response to the um the black magic camera up and it's like let's give people a slightly easier way to do this but still give IT the robust features because the black magic is the camera APP is great but IT is like you can really quickly get into the weeds of these manuals to make changes and to do stuff. So I think I think they serve slightly different purposes. But you're right, IT is a great is a great video.
Yeah, it's a great one. So check those links are in the shower notes and one other apple update. This is an, I was eighteen, that two, which is coming likely in december, seen the summer night as a date floating around there.
But apples fine. Mine was updated. So if you have items or an air tag or find my network accessory, which i've had, things like E S R wallets that are fine mine, but not air tag in a precision location.
But you have items now in the find my APP, once eighteen or two comes out, you should be able to have a link, share a link to someone, and they can actually see the location of that device, like loaded up in a web browser and even in the future, shared with things like airlines. And hopefully, I guess if their customer services on the ball, find the item that's that's cool. What you say if the .
customer is on the ball, this is a thing that apple is like partners with the airlines. So I feel like there's probably like an infrastructure system on their end to like facilitate this because i'm sure that the thing that airlines love the most is when people call them are group to the baggage just but haven't here taking IT looks, see here, just go there please. Like that's probably super anything.
So having some sort of a way to share that directly, like I don't know if there's like every airline now has a dummy eye account they can just receive. I don't know how they are doing this. I will tell you even I don't know if you've never play this game.
This is a fun drinking game or whatever, just conversation game, I don't know, but whenever apple makes an announcement and you just google whatever that topic is, right? Whether that's okay. So air tags, airlines or m for mac mini, you google m for mac mini and all the articles are going to be like, or all the resources like youtube reviews, the verge in gadget, whatever.
When you google this, all of the responses are like cbs news, U. S. A today, people magazine like this is the type of thing that Normal people, like non type, actually super care about. And you can tell that that's true by the coverage. This is like a headline feature on cbs news and all of these places. It's kind of a fun little thing to notice like oh, this is what breaks beyond the bubble of the thing like we're all arguing about the m four pro mac, many being faster than the to all just next studio. And if you say that sends to any like random person that yeah I don't know the time, but you tell them that air tags will now send the like your location, your bag, really say more tell me more about this.
That's so that is interesting. So I just I just did a google search because i'm still using google, which j. Tions not anymore can talk about that.
But yeah, like this. A B, C news, U. S, A today.
Yeah, yeah. On all the big ones. Daily mail, yeah. airline. Es, okay, listen, I air tag everything. I got air tagged in my checking, no, I don't check bags, nate. I don't believe I.
I tried to get everything and I Carry on even when I went on like a ten day trip to a leave last year. I just shoved that all in a Carrier on. I wanted check anything .
I Carry in podcast studio here and I didn't check.
This what i'm saying, I trying to chicken me, but I still put air tags even in my Carry on because you never know what happened. I put, I put everywhere. So it's amazing the battery life on air tags too.
I feel like i've changed maybe two or three of them, and I have probably twenty in all different devices. I mean, come on, it's good. Better life. yeah. What would you get your take to tag all your bag?
And I put IT on my Carry on bag. I put her. All our kids have them in their two cases, like they are Carry on bag and all my keys um I don't do the thing in the wall because I use a really slim like to me all that that if you try to stick, overtake and there would just be an actress. I I don't do that, but we put them on basically everything that moves.
So the wallet thing um I i've included isn't like my accessory videos before, but there's a company called cats gig or cx gig. I feel exactly what that is not want to forget IT, but is basically like an an ultrathin wallet with an air tag slot and basically would just fit like three cards. And I I don't know why I can never find this.
I bought one of these and I don't know who was from either. And that's probably good because I hate IT IT. So I don't want to say who was from, but and I had just a little but you can stick and there are taking up but again, like I don't even want to know my wallet is really there unless I put my hand back there to check putting an area tag and like and that's actually the one disadventure ge of having a removable battery. Is your limit's like the size of what IT has to be but didn't like to polo or somebody just come out with a actual card slot tracker to put in your world like this just happened. I I will .
I have the triple o card. I don't know they have one. Now that actually is the precision tracking, but that's the problem with all the third party ones. They don't have precision racket.
They don't have like I little have one of the cars from triple o and you can do the blue tooth and I would like, you know, you can make you have make a sound. There is a built in speaker, which is great. And it'll do like the proximity blue to like the apple TV remote, but IT will not have the arrow come on screen and point you to the thing IT doesn't precision tracking.
And so that's like the air tag is still an airports pro two case are still the only two things that will pop the era on the screen is not even apple vision pro that kind of tracking yeah, which does not matter for Jason because never takes out of house. But this was the world that I got is currently no longer available. So just so that big.
But this is Robert. No longer available, no longer available. But yeah, you could fit like three cards in their and their tag and it's maxi fall. You put IT down there.
I was going to put the link in the show notes but I just can get anymore it's tax gic are we talk about OpenAI and Jason wrote, uh, h ethe. Click with articles behind st. That said, he quit google, quit google for good. But before we do want to think, our first sponsor, which is matt and they make one of my favorite accessory for the iphone, to be honest.
Okay, if you want to ever record a video work week and maybe need to stand, or you want to watch a podcast like this one on your lunch break, the moved invisible trip us and look at this, look out, slim this tripod, dan is, and watch this. I'm trying do this like a magic C I failed. Look that you gotto stand there.
And you can, have you been to any angle, right? Low profile. And you can also, like, do one of these things.
Have a stand on your desk. Love this thing. So, real problem. A strong maxim. Magnets, they can hold the phone, and then when you want to go record yourself or watch a video will quickly unfold. You can elevate your phone up the adenine es off the table.
You can adjust the angle, use IT in several modes you can do like vlog mode, so if you want to, like, record yourself and do that, and you can even do the stand of the floating mode, worth rate, portrait or landscape. So you can do one of these things too. I accident, turn my camera on, like looking at myself while i'm doing, and is thronging off like crazy bit anyway.
So if you're looking for maxi, this is also a wallet. That's the crazy thing, too. So I want to try and hold this up the camera.
This is a wallet right here. You can put two cards in this little piece, and you get the max safe. You can get the stand in a wallet or non, well, if you don't want the word version, they're just a Normal stand.
Or you can get the world. We put the two cards in and saying, benefits of the triplets. This is the non wallet, and they do all this, but boom, that I can get in multiple colors.
And IT IT works with NFC, so they will discrete pocket. We put the two cards in there. If you want to use this and just do like a tap cards, you have the N, F, C thing on your car is boom, tap.
You don't have to take IT out of the tripod wallet. Love this thing. So seven days sale, we have a disco covering at the tripod stay and starting at thirty books, twenty nine ninety nine.
So just visit the link in the show notes and use the promo code primary tech B F ten. I should have asked them, maybe they stand for best friends like we're best friends anyway. You get the stand version or the wallet version that's promote de primary tech B F ten.
But even if you miss the sale because you list to this episode, you can still get ten dollars off when you spend over fifty dollars through the month of november and higher discount if you spend more than that. So are thanks to math for the tripod wallet and or stand. And you know, when i'm eating long to whatever I like, just will stand out and watching youtube video or watching episode. Primary technology. Well, thanks to read really hard motion.
You .
are so hard. Thank you. Thank very much. I OpenAI before we get to a Jason's clipped article. Uh, h they are, say this the rumors are that OpenAI is nearing the launch of an A I agent to automate test. So basically like what anthropic showed off a couple weeks ago, which we talked about on the show, which is that agent style A I that can use a computer for you basically, or take action for you, look like open the eyes, going to be launching an agent to do that similar way is the article from bloomberg talking about IT and code named Operator, Operator anyway. And this is gonna be, again, this is the kind of the next phase of these A I models.
And there was also the room that OpenAIr w as g onna n ounce a m odel e ven b efore t he i nto t he y ear, but not that the Operator model or just the next version of the LLM remains to be seen, but they're nearing that and it's apparently getting so good. Now, a little look, Jason, Jason, over here. This is his article.
Ink ChatGPT search made me quit google for good. Defend, defend. headline.
What do I have to defend? Do I find the headline? The article, the idea? I need to know specifically what IT is that I am.
are being accused. Did, did, did you really quit? Google are using chat P.
T. Search, just for all the things you used to go for. Okay.
I have changed my default search in brave to ChatGPT what you can now do with the extension. So literally, every time I type into the the bar, the top IT does a GPT GPT search instead of google search.
However, that's actually super unknowing, because sometimes I actually forget that I did that and I just started typing things in my brain even though I intended to use like, I forget that that's what has happened because for whatever twenty fifteen years i've been doing, google is there. Yes, there are a couple of things. A one of the things I do very frequently is searching my own articles, not because i'm vain, but because I have to like linked to them or i'm trying to remember a thing.
And so i'll do a site search, right? You can take type site call in in any website and then just put stuff after that, and you will search for that. So I have a tex expanders shortcut that I just do that all the time.
And like probably ten times a day when I working on an article, I do IT costley. And I realized that a terrible thing to try to use tragedy for. It'll do IT technically.
But IT doesn't understand like exactly what you're trying to do. So thankfully, in every chrome browser, so brave is a criminal browser. You can just take coal and g and to do a google search.
So I I have now had to teach myself there are a couple of things for which I prefer to do a google search. But I have changed my defauts search engine to ChatGPT and IT is surprisingly good one. I think we can agree google search the best we have also not great, like it's just gotten more and more annoying over the last, let's say, five years.
And I don't if i'm searching for any product, let's say you wanted to know when A A particular product came out. Like you're trying to the wikipedia page for something, but you type in the right like google thinks h you must want to buy this thing, right? So just started showing you like the shopping care ell or amazon links.
I like this. Stop, stop trying to get to filter the money out of like these people. I just wanted to look up when apple inertial.
The I patterns like these are things for a lot. And so g GPT much Better at a lot of the things on a regular basis. I even, I even to searched the, searched the lions like that. Our hometown footles team and IT immediately knew, like you're looking for the football team, told me the most recent game results, showed me some statistics about them, and then gave me a link to the right page.
It's great. I guess I have to figure out where I can. Convenience do IT because alo is naturally third, like type in address bar or safari or whatever. And you still can said that default to chat.
B, T, and safer but you can't crown brave on phone yeah because that's I feel when .
i'm searching for stuff a lot of time that i'm there maybe try on the test top and I will to your point, the google search, we actually had a listener, gme on threads. This is, I think, pretty serious, but this was twenty nine appeal. Tag me.
And then someone saying this is how useful A I is again as a google search for how much how much caffeine in mcDonald's coffee. And the A I overview result from google says a large ice coffee from mcDonald's contains a lot of cafe and there's even there's even a table like an unreasoning ally a table and it's a drink. Large zed coffee caf.
Fine, a lot this ridiculous. But also if I think if I see one more reit result as the top link when I do a goole search, i'm gna lose IT. Okay, I understand maybe read is great.
And there's a trove of information, just valuable stuff in there. It's never what I want to see any time when I search google. And if I ever do follow that read IT link, so long as they want the read APP stall in my phone.
And so the little pople comes on like, you wanna to the APP, or do you want to open in the door? And so like three steps just to read whatever nonsense post doesn't have the answer i'm looking for. It's can stand IT. I don't I don't know why, why, why do they do the right thing? We're just read IT all the time.
I mean, I would I would assume the answer to that question is what think there's a lot of money involved in this and red this deal was probably, I don't know, no one to told me this. If someone knows he wants to reach out love to talk web summer, come and find me this afternoon, that d be great. But thank you.
I'm guessing that part of the deal was, yes, send us all the traffic please in in return. Yes, you can train and all of our data like that. Just feels like that's the most obvious thing.
right? I I just don't i've find IT less and less useful, to be honest. I've actually, I feel like in past ten years, I could count on one hand the amount of time i've gone to the second page of results in google search.
And in the last few months, I ve gone to that second and even third page multiple times. Just looking for a legitimate article about the thing that i'm trying to learn about, like I have to get past the A I overview, get past the video links which listen i'm on youtube. I'm thankfully people find my content that way.
Would you got to get past that? You got to get a pass to the red IT stuff. And then maybe on the second, third page actually have like an article by somebody.
Well then do this if you're using ChatGPT search more often. Do you ever find yourself actually clicking the link source IT provides to actually read? The website is showing you .
yeah and it's actually fantastic because IT will in the copy that IT gives you, IT has the foot now right there and you can click on them, show you all the links and you can just go to them like instantly. I don't know. Yes, I don't know if it's gonna a huge source of traffic because I don't know how many people actually can be using this.
Click this for now, but I do think that it's as IT. My take on this was the is doing a good job of providing me with the information that i'm trying to find, and it's doing IT in a much Better user experience than google is right now. Like to me that's a win.
I I don't know. I mean, someday chat, open a eyes, going to want to figure how to monitor ze this and maybe I will become a dumper fire as well and which is at the hope theory, it's Better. I don't know like I don't know what any result here is, but for now, for a lot of things, it's great.
And then here's another thing that I do like about IT. Every time you do a query, IT creates a new conversation with ChatGPT over interview log in. It's over on the side there so you can actually go back and be like, oh yeah, thing I was looking up to yesterday. I have another question about IT. You can go back and add a to that thread of the conversation and I know sends all that previous context with IT so you can just continue that conversation.
I would do a live A B test here. Just.
I mean, I did your caffeine thing and its response was a large twenty one, twenty one out. That's a large coffee. Well, that's big. Big is a big bed. Coffee is one hundred five medium.
Medium says that's .
a lot of coffee in one cup. But IT has one hundred eighty five milligrams of coffee. And then he has a link to exactly where I came from.
I don't know this website is caffeine informer dot com. okay? Maybe it's just a website that bookmark this kind of stuff, but then he also has several the links at the bottom.
There's a thing called sources, and you just can click write on this. And here's the thing I actually think for me, i'm more likely to click click on the source links because I don't inherently still trust D A. I chapt. So I wanted check them. So i'm probably i'm probably doing more are going you to the websites and I .
would be in google. So here's answer here, the A B test. So I just searched in chat. P T. What's the new air tag feature? I was eighteen, dog two. And honestly, they did a very nice job of saying IT introduce a new share item location ah where you can you temporary link and find my APP and all the kind of stuff. So and is basically someone having the verge.
So there's a link here to the verge article and you can just go over there and and read the full thing the same search in google IT did well like IT actually has a summary of an article at the very top and specially says like the new share item location. So I mean, by the same thing, but just overall, like as a top stories feature, maybe that help for me night. These are all legitimate articles that have mac rumors here, times guide underneath the videos, then there's discussion and forms, which i'm glad that's broken out a guess.
And then like the apple newsroom is down here. But this is like my eyes usually look for this part of google search because I just want to see, like, show me the top list of articles right here. And like, I would probably click one of these, and I just feel like this.
I did OK for this search. But more, more often, this is just kind of convoluted. And you agree, yes, I do one more search. I want to see if my video pops up. I probably because I log in as myself getting started with iphone .
early of the energy exercise right here.
So there's a AI overview, which is hilarious, that they would have an A V for getting server life turned on your iphone person. Hold the power button until the apple logo appears, which is the power button anyway, apple's support article. Iphone user guide.
Oh, down in videos. okay. And the first result, I was so good. Anyway, thank you, google.
I am happy for you.
Thank you. Thank you. Well, let us know. I mean, if you're out there, listen your viewers and you're using chat G P ChatGPT search full time, like Jason, is that i'll be curious to know and maybe I should switch, will see blue sky.
Jason, why is IT making a come back? What is happening? Is this do to the U. S. election? Is that why everyone's going to look?
Guy, I don't know. I thought I had signed up for blue sky along time ago. But I think because I try to tag you, I think IT when I am on there now as okay, okay, as of this morning or yesterday, I don't remember I was because time is I don't .
even know anymore right now, but I tried .
feels more like a wrangle piece paper to me right now. But I tried to sign up at one point when you must have had to have like an invite something and I wasn't cool enough to have one so I must have given up for a while. Um IT feels like twitter mostly and I keep seeing posts on there about how much nicer IT is the threads.
And so more people should come and use IT. And I wonder if people realize that the more people come and use that, the more IT will become like threats. The more I will become like twitter or x or whatever.
Like there's just a there's a sort of a proximity bias that people don't seem to understand that like right, that was the thing you are saying is so wonderful is a function of the fact that very few people are using IT and yeah fifteen million users, that a lot. But it's not two hundred seventy five million users, which is I think what matter just said, threats is using and it's not three hundred million, which is what I think um whatever access or something like that. So this is it's like you left the really big crowded place and went to the cool hanging out. Well, once everyone in the big crown place figures out about the cool hanging out, you're going to need a bigger little man and it's going to be the same thing.
Yeah, I don't. They had like an influx of almost million users, whatever, in like a couple days. And but IT was like delayed pillages.
I'm not sure like why that was. But anyway, i'm i'm over here and I got four windows open. So whenever I post them like I guess spreads mss done x blue sky like I don't think it's not sustainable.
right? That is anything I don't think we're going to have threads x blue sky. I mean, I think they might fragment and you might have like a certain group group of people using like the like the the nerdiest of tech man will probably always use master on fine, right?
Like and if what you want to do is managing one of those, you know someone who fits that category like that, we're going to have to post and the people you know who only have ever used facebook and instagram might end up on reads. They're never going to go to blue sky. And so you, I don't I don't want to manage for a different platform.
Ms, right? Primary, early right now. I check twitter, x whatever, post things to instagram threads, more, more often threads.
And now there's blue sky. And I have posted two things, and I believe I have zero followers. So at school.
no, you have, you have won because I just follows H.
I appreciate that so much.
You're welcome. I mean, I just have once that can we please decide like i'm just maybe that's no longer a thing that decentralized is what people want. Now I will shut out the Crystal APP is what I actually said.
I set this up and they're working on a mac and ipad version, but allows you to post a blue sky master on and threats simultaneously. And if you gna attack someone you've even like. Let you do the different tags in different places in the post.
Compose was pretty great. So i've i've been using Christine and that helped a little bit. But to the people who that say blue guys like the nice place, I just wanted point the sound I posted about my kindle color soft ipad mini comparison review. And I one of the comments was from this guy, this guy, he says these comparisons ons are just stupid, to be honest. That's that's what he replied to me and so I said, thanks and then he liked that that post I don't I don't know he knew who I was, things .
like cash or not.
I if only they knew they come out of sarcasm list in that thanks for the next commission for anyway, I guess it's the nice place i'm anyway, i'm posting everywhere, i'm checking everywhere and that's now become my full time job. I just managing you .
never see another youtube video and Stephen channel. You'll know that is just because he's going he's gonna three iphone soon, one with h he's just going to constantly .
when the promise I need, like back in the day, there were apps that you could literally bring in like I feel like flip board did this originally where you could like a log in with your facebook account, your twitter account and whatever are the social media and literally have a single timeline of all your things, but more so like all your notifications could be in one place.
And what is never going to get back to that? Because I mean, you can use the party after x mon works that way. Threads, but not real, like you can do that with threads like you have to look at threads if you want to see your notifications and engage with people so they just know like cohesive one place anymore. In this man is a lot, lot. Anyway, I just on on blue guy, you can be .
a third follower. I would .
ve actually they have to show notes .
not going to you .
know i'm not read IT. I don't know people ever read that. I still being mean about IT.
but yeah because you want to see nice comments that's about what you .
said going to the five star view, right? I want to talk about the apple home, smart home, A I power device, because apparently that's coming very soon. My girl even leaked some details, possibly.
But before we do want to talk about hello fresh, friends at hello fresh, which is america's number one milk kit that makes home cooking easy, fun and affordable, I will hello fresh. I was trying to find a like is free primary hello fresh dot comes less free primary. I'm saying that to myself so I can pull up the way page and I can share IT in the video.
That's why, uh, saying that I like, anyway, I fresh there. I love getting a back from hello fresh because i've cooked them with my kids in the past. They love following the recipe and being able to make something themselves.
I am not someone who cooks personally very often. I did an entire bone episode on my other podcast about how I cut in union, and I was a traumatizing experience for the first time. This you can listen that on your flight home.
I'll publish that month later. But there's someone like me who is not naturally adept at cooking. Hello, fresh allows me to like, just follow the steps, follow directions and just makes IT easy.
I can feel confident and comfortable making the food and listen the holiday season just around the corner, and you're looking for ways to spend and stress. Less fresh can make meal time nearly hassle free with delicious home delivered, chef crafted recipes. And they have lots of recipe in different categories.
You can have stuff for picky eaters. You can do the calorie smart meal plan and all the options with a rotating menu of fifty recipes to choose from. Every week, days, you wore out the hello fresh box that you got. You share some of the things you have made.
yes. So we did this burbling bacon burgers chatter burgers, like they were very good, like where burger fans at our house, and they were extremely good. We really enjoy them.
And then we had was like, what's a call them is a moshi pork, is that is that thing? I think so I I don't know, but there are these balls with rice. There was like very, very, very, very good again.
And uh, we they send us the bags they were included in there. You saw big as as how you can make those the other, absolutely. And uh, there was a dessert that I don't know that I ever got to try, but I, but I was all pretty good.
But here's the thing I like about how if I actually really like to cook. The problem is, uh, we don't know like we have a family of six. Typically, it's hard to find something that all six of us will like. But more importantly, it's hard to find the time to like put together a recipe because, you know, you might want to make something gone up thursday night and you got to have all the ingredients in. The last thing you want to do is such a run to like, say, I grover, whatever at the last minute with this is great because they sent you literally everything you need to make.
It's great public, if you're down here in florida, go grow and saying, I know every time I thought the fight to the death so just water hello fresh that's um i'm not even going to that out.
That's my home. Public is very upset with you right now sending you messages.
How do you know I did? Did I say something that like S I R I? I don't know. No.
my home page. Oh, you said in same.
wow. Apple intelligence. Let me listen.
So you don .
domus with the home part like that, but and you even even have to go to the grocery store. Here's what you do. You can get ten free meals at hello fresh dot com slash free primary look that applied across seven boxes.
New subway bes only varies by plan, but that's ten three. Hello fresh meals is got a hello fresh dot com slash free. I marry.
The link is in the shown notes, could try there and remember. Hello fresh amErica is number one milkers margera never hear. He's drop in details about the new, the long rumors of mag, we talk about this for years.
Apple smart home of slash device screen pod home. I guess home screen is already the things we can be that. But the next apple next device is an A I wall hableton for home control theory and video calls.
And i'm also gonna ink his tweet here or his exposed because basically listed all the things that this device supposedly is going to be capable love. But this new device from apple sh might be becoming as early as early twenty twenty five. It's going to focus on, I can say, the word S I R I.
Communication and home control was really a home hub. He runs so far in music notes, several apple apps. It's touch screen, but it's Operated primarily exposed to, through voice, under apple intelligence, new APP intense features like intense, not intense, but intense features.
The U. S. Is a blend of watches and I O S stand by mode, the sizes about two iphone side by side with the roughly six inch screen, so seems maybe smaller than an ipad mini.
Apple is working on a wall attachment as a speaker base or desk tables, kitchen nightstands heavy security focus with video and audio intercom or homes. Whole screen will be customizable. You can tap until like your video door bell and video cameras. And apple is working on a higher end version with a robotic and an A I based personality that still years away, but the ideas and A I companion in your homeworkers ACE, I don't even not say about that second one that that feels like I don't even know, but the little home part with the screen thing, yes, buying immediately about you. You are really all in the whole .
kit though now so here's okay, this is all this is only thought I have about this talk many times. We have one of the google home home max things on the counter and it's great, right? Do not much. That thing cost not a thousand dollars and and IT will play youtube and it'll also controlled youtube TV on our TV in the other, like I know this, this is like this is like the vision pro version of this thing.
And I don't know anybody who doesn't think the vision pro is trying to do too much, who doesn't think that the vision pro is trying to do way too much for the especially once like people start to compare like you, it's trying to do the same thing that the metals are right on glasses and the question doing in the same form factor, and it's just trying to do way too much. I feel like this is, I don't know what that is exactly, but when apple tries to do new things, then IT seems like the apple watch seems like the last thing they were willing to to interview on and make Better over time once they got out into the world. IT feels like, you know, there are people, okay, so there are people in the world to make a decision to do a thing.
And like, we're going to do this thing and then we figure out how to do IT as we go. And we don't need to know exactly where we're going. We're just gonna go out on this road trip and wherever we end up, that's going.
And then there are people who are like, no, I can't even leave the house or decide to leave the house until I figured out every single step of the way and that feels like it's apple. And i'm like now just like, why have you not just taken a home pod mini and glued an ipad mini to and release like that? Like, just seriously, those even like the thing people want is not a thousand dollar six and screen that you have a well attached ment to put on to your world. I just I don't know is that really you think people want .
IT can be a thousand dollars? I think it's well, someone like me wanted to because i'm in the apple smart homework system like hundred percent probably not a lot of people like me uh in in that far into IT and like they talked on the the verge cast people who had joined the stern when SHE interviewed crc federigo e because in that interview he mentioned he opened his door with the voice system I did and it's like.
is that really true? Did we is everyone went on this rapper hole to figure out of thing that feels like when i'm not comparing him to data trumpet and double trumpet like say a random thing and then people would spend like months trying to figure out how I could either be true or not.
like sometimes to say whether whether is true or not. I think the interesting part is, if IT is true, the process to have your garage or open with your iphone assistant is actually laborious. Like IT is not an easy process like you can plug in a home pot and set that up.
That's pretty easy. Changing out a smart light switch, that's the next level of difficulty that most people are not ready to do. And what I see a lot of social media people asking about smart bulbs. The problem is that experience not great in the smart hom. Either smart bulbs are historical hinny, or you have to get a hub.
And so once you start just tip tolling into the smart home world, either have to nerd out about IT and spend a lot of time doing IT or you just a smart plug, and then that's IT. So like for my mom, I gave a couple smart plugs that I had around and he really enjoys IT. SHE could turn on her lamp when he walked in the house by yelling at her home pod mini, and that's cool in order for her to control the government with her phone.
Like I would need to, there's like one or two devices that work with IT. And when I use the marris one, but you literally have to, like, climb up on a letter, you have to plug in the maris device into the little ports on the motor. And then you have to run the context sensor, have to run this huge long line to install your own context sensor on the garage door.
So the mayors thing knows whether the door open and close IT is a lot of work like that in the afternoon of work if you know what you're doing. So overall, it's just think, why would I would love a little smart home home pod with a screen IT would be useful for me because I have a turn of devices already. And so if I can see my six smart home cameras that are all home kids care video and my doorbell, that's valuable to me.
But I think for most people the issue is like step one, like what what would I do with that in the smart home? I guess I could turn my line button off from another screen that caused more than the lap and the smart plug than itself. But like doorbell, because most people have a ring doorbell and to install a home kids cure video doorbell, you have like three options.
You like the wim O A large attack, and you can do an r low if you have a hub immediately. Like he just got too complicated. So I do think I am excited about this device.
I think a small market would be in order for to be mass marketable. I think apple still has to raise the bar on the home kit like entry point. And like I walked into the apple to day a day to, I think to return something.
But I went to like they have the smart home section and they show off like home kit, smart home. And it's like the eve outdoor came, which is a pain connective install. Like you basically have to have light fixed on the outside of your house.
You're willing to replace with a flood light. It's like wiring, like it's complicated and they'll have like a smart plug, which is the easier tury point and you'll have something else like all of IT is complicated. So I do feel like there needs to be a if apple really want smart to be a thing and this device to be a thing, there needs to be A A Better on boarding as an apple user. And apple should say, like just not only here's the smart plug, but I don't know, work is is tough, like smart home is tough, like what what smart home devices do you have that you are just like, this is easy enough. And like most people should do, this is the bulbs.
Yes, if you wanted to rely, you just buy the new true like that. The easy thing to sol, right? And we have the list.
How have the body?
We have the c by g and they work with the google assistance. I've never had a time when I have said, hey, dangerous for google. Turn off the lights in whatever room. And I didn't just instantly do IT for me like.
are those hokey compatible? Are those hokey competed.
but I don't care.
But that what did this device in particular, now you do this.
all the things you want to do that you think this device is is going to solve the apple should spend the billion dollars fixing the assistant because you don't need the device of your home pods. Could just do all this right? You can talk to the assistant with home pods, with your phone, with your watch, which is the only place I suggest anyone talk to their assistant is with their watch. You can do all those things. The problem is not needing this device does not need to exist to fix all of those things. Also, by the way, I don't want we don't have time, because I have to go soon to get into this that I just want to say there has never been a time of my life when I didn't need to either open or close the garage door and I wasn't just standing there by the bottom like i've never needed to do that when I wasn't just right there and could just tapped the button right on the and I replace my granddad recently didn't give a single thought to whether that they would be compatible with any thought home, anything, because every time I want to open the garage door, i've opened the door for my house and I pushed the button. And every time I want to close IT, it's because i'm walking in the .
house and I just push the button. I just the gradual to people, those ceaseless things, because someone has to have work, like if someone's coming in the house needs to work on IT or let somebody in the house, they don't have a key and the key pad outside doesn't work because mine doesn't work, because ant develop next and where whatever. Like, I like opening the garage remotely and doing for my watch.
But I just think the barrier to entry, the smart home, I think that is a bigger problem to solve in this. I'm excited for this device because I can see all the cameras in one place. I'm to maybe replace the home part here in the studio with the device like that.
Intercom is really cool. And the only useful way I found to use IT is like shortcuts. So most people probably are not using IT. They don't even know the thing. So I think bringing features like that to the forefront would be great for users, but they do have to solve like that entreprise.
Like where do people get started? And I would like just to hear about smart more often like apple events, like you just don't hear a lot about IT. And so this can have to come along with a bunch other up over quick because I want to get a personal take because someone ask a question about our Michael s.
dock. And so very quick. I just want to mention as soon as they are still struggling, uh, I see their aping update every other day. But the debate co with the APP and just product releases being delayed, revenues dependent, uh, it's not great. I also as a sonus user, I have art, the beam sub sub mini also no desire really to try like the article ture and like I don't think I need to spend two thousand dollars to replace my art that's already great. So yeah struggle little bit and they need .
triggered that out. Yeah the revenue was down a percent and they spent four million dollars. You kept that four million dollars fixing the new APP, four million dollars to fix an APP when they could like, there has to go down.
This is like right up there. We don't have time. This is right up there though with with the same. This is like when netflix tried to separate its DVD business and they're going to call a quick ster and like people just like, are you kidding me right now? This out good is right up there with like corporate decisions that no one should have ever made like right there.
And finally, last year, next year, I love sharing information articles because there's nothing to share. Just get the headline from the inversion MIT to launch ads on threads early next year, which of course, was coming. I'm curious to see how spin me to feel how instagram my is actually pretty good as far as like targeting.
So i'm curious how the targeting is going to be on threats. But yeah, you'll see ads next year. Yes.
of course, this anyone who is surprised by this, have you used the meta product ever like, come on.
Which is why I feel like their federating of threads is never going to go so far. Like you can browse your threads feed in a third party hap. yeah.
No, because that s you like, you know, we will do that. And what will be doing? Eighteen social networks, forever, ever, our personal tech.
This was asked by super edition on youtube. Your duck, Jason, on your mac location hiding and your apple minimise zing effect. Chair your people.
Chair OK. So I I have IT on the bottom and I use hiding. I don't. He didn't ask this, but every time I have a family member with their max setting IT up anything, I turn off the dots. No one should ever have the dots.
I have the dots. No, the that dots on, the the dots on twenty percent. That's on. I did not think we going to run into this again.
I met, well, what to do is let us know people. I promise you. Stephen, wrong again.
I I was no anywhere OK. And I don't know. How do I find out if I using an effect option to mize a window .
and see what happens, either scales or gene .
bottle zie IT. And then you .
can see .
how that went.
So did the gene of action is a little whisp like that.
I want to say, i've never thought about that once in my life. So if i'm going to be doing something different, someone can just tell me and i'm fine.
is a okay, so mine is bottom hiding dots on no, because i'm Better, Better off dots. That's on recent apps. No, I don't like a dog.
yeah. okay. We can go on that. And I did the scaling effect .
rather than the gene. I just wish that .
if the dots are the gene, there's if you see a dot under final cut or premiere, whatever, and you're about to record a podcast, you got to know .
what kind of a maker you using that I can handle.
I mean, my mac and handle, but I I don't want premiere open while recording. No, that that's on hundred percent. Let us know this.
This is great. And let us know this in the community. Any basic I would, I do dots on that would no one would understand that reference. But anyway, let us know what do you think dots on off under your applications in the dock?
You can let us know if social, that primary, take that of follows on the eighteen different social networks that jon now part can be a third of. On blue sky, if you would like to be and you could support the show. You get an ad free version and bonus episodes every week.
If you support the show at primary take to click onus episodes.
