It's really good. You got has for it. It's really good. You got you might want to just study that you might want to just study that you might want to just study that because they put together such a great because they put together such a great because they put together such a great program. What did you learn? What did I program. What did you learn? What did I program. What did you learn? What did I learn? Um what I learned. It's not what learn? Um what I learned. It's not what learn? Um what I learned. It's not what I learned typically because I do such I learned typically because I do such I learned typically because I do such broad research. It's more of I go in broad research. It's more of I go in broad research. It's more of I go in there just to see whether or not um you there just to see whether or not um you there just to see whether or not um you know these folks that are talking all know these folks that are talking all know these folks that are talking all this fluffy innovation stuff actually this fluffy innovation stuff actually this fluffy innovation stuff actually know what they're talking about. And um know what they're talking about. And um know what they're talking about. And um what I'm what I'm seeing is that even what I'm what I'm seeing is that even what I'm what I'm seeing is that even through these catalyst um projects that through these catalyst um projects that through these catalyst um projects that that you have um operators as well as that you have um operators as well as that you have um operators as well as the vendors collaborate on, they're the vendors collaborate on, they're the vendors collaborate on, they're discovering this stuff is so hard, you discovering this stuff is so hard, you discovering this stuff is so hard, you know. And you know, one of the things know. And you know, one of the things know. And you know, one of the things that they keep bringing up is how the that they keep bringing up is how the that they keep bringing up is how the data is the problem. There's readiness data is the problem. There's readiness data is the problem. There's readiness issues from a operational standpoint or, issues from a operational standpoint or, issues from a operational standpoint or, you know, change management.

Uh, but one you know, tech hype cycle. Uh, but one you know, tech hype cycle. Uh, but one of the things that they don't realize is of the things that they don't realize is of the things that they don't realize is that with AI, we brought up on the show,
-
that with AI, we brought up on the show, that with AI, we brought up on the show, it's about knowledge. If your knowledge it's about knowledge. If your knowledge it's about knowledge. If your knowledge is crap, your data, it can be good. your is crap, your data, it can be good. your is crap, your data, it can be good. your AI still is going to be crap. You know AI still is going to be crap. You know AI still is going to be crap. You know what I'm saying? And so, um, I don't what I'm saying? And so, um, I don't what I'm saying? And so, um, I don't think they've come to that realization think they've come to that realization think they've come to that realization yet, but like, you know, in most yet, but like, you know, in most yet, but like, you know, in most instances, there's this whole instances, there's this whole instances, there's this whole realization, but there are some realization, but there are some realization, but there are some companies that are ahead of the curve. companies that are ahead of the curve. companies that are ahead of the curve.

But that's all but but you're talking about but you're talking about but you're talking about commercialization of going from the P to commercialization of going from the P to commercialization of going from the P to the deployment to a commercialized the deployment to a commercialized the deployment to a commercialized deployment that's actually robust and deployment that's actually robust and deployment that's actually robust and sustainable in the real world. And sustainable in the real world. And sustainable in the real world. And that's and there's always a big gap that's and there's always a big gap that's and there's always a big gap there between I made this tech and I there between I made this tech and I there between I made this tech and I actually deployed it for like an actually deployed it for like an actually deployed it for like an extended period of time. So that carrier extended period of time. So that carrier extended period of time. So that carrier grade to me is another way of saying grade to me is another way of saying grade to me is another way of saying like squeezing all the bugs and like squeezing all the bugs and like squeezing all the bugs and performance issues out and s and so that performance issues out and s and so that performance issues out and s and so that it's really predictable and reliable and it's really predictable and reliable and it's really predictable and reliable and supportable and that's a that's supportable and that's a that's supportable and that's a that's unglamorous work by the way very unglamorous work by the way very unglamorous work by the way very unglamorous work but there's always this unglamorous work but there's always this unglamorous work but there's always this gap and we see it all the time gap and we see it all the time gap and we see it all the time especially in the and I see it in the especially in the and I see it in the especially in the and I see it in the edge space too. It's like you've got edge space too. It's like you've got edge space too. It's like you've got this cool thing, but it's like, okay, I this cool thing, but it's like, okay, I this cool thing, but it's like, okay, I want to deploy 100,000 of them across want to deploy 100,000 of them across want to deploy 100,000 of them across all these oil wells. It's like, okay, all these oil wells. It's like, okay, all these oil wells. It's like, okay, there's a big gap. There's a lot of work there's a big gap. There's a lot of work there's a big gap. There's a lot of work there. Doesn't seem like it cuz it's there. Doesn't seem like it cuz it's there. Doesn't seem like it cuz it's working here, but on your desk, in the working here, but on your desk, in the working here, but on your desk, in the lab, it works. But that's a that's a lab, it works. But that's a that's a lab, it works. But that's a that's a that's an opportunity gap there. I just that's an opportunity gap there. I just that's an opportunity gap there. I just love the term carrier grade. You know, love the term carrier grade. You know, love the term carrier grade. You know, carrier grade used to mean something a carrier grade used to mean something a carrier grade used to mean something a long time ago. It meant specialized long time ago. It meant specialized long time ago. It meant specialized hardware that was the most expensive hardware that was the most expensive hardware that was the most expensive thing possible for mobile networks. It thing possible for mobile networks. It thing possible for mobile networks. It meant you were running AIX and from IBM
-
meant you were running AIX and from IBM meant you were running AIX and from IBM or Solaris, you know, hardcore Unix and or Solaris, you know, hardcore Unix and or Solaris, you know, hardcore Unix and then carrier grade. Well, there's the then carrier grade. Well, there's the then carrier grade. Well, there's the carrier grade as Pete's talking about, carrier grade as Pete's talking about, carrier grade as Pete's talking about, but carrier grade was a telco but carrier grade was a telco but carrier grade was a telco terminology and and now, you know, terminology and and now, you know, terminology and and now, you know, they've been trying desperately to not they've been trying desperately to not they've been trying desperately to not be carrier grade for years. They're be carrier grade for years. They're be carrier grade for years. They're trying to go commodity servers, run fast trying to go commodity servers, run fast trying to go commodity servers, run fast and break things. Yeah. And so it's like and break things. Yeah. And so it's like and break things. Yeah. And so it's like do like meta do you know just you know do like meta do you know just you know do like meta do you know just you know have let the software hold it together have let the software hold it together have let the software hold it together like all the clouds servers are failing. like all the clouds servers are failing. like all the clouds servers are failing.

No, it's true. It's lost a little Yeah. No, it's true. It's lost a little bit of its luster in terms of uh bit of its luster in terms of uh bit of its luster in terms of uh terminology, but I get it. Yeah. And oh, terminology, but I get it. Yeah. And oh, terminology, but I get it. Yeah. And oh, the other thing I discovered is a lot of the other thing I discovered is a lot of the other thing I discovered is a lot of people know about our show. people know about our show. people know about our show. You know, the first thing, especially if You know, the first thing, especially if You know, the first thing, especially if I bump into Eric for a second, they go, I bump into Eric for a second, they go, I bump into Eric for a second, they go, "Oh, yeah.

IoT Buffy talk community, you know, whether it's MWC or DJ, you know, whether it's MWC or DJ, you know, whether it's MWC or DJ, you haven't been there in a while, people haven't been there in a while, people haven't been there in a while, people jump out of the woodworks and you know, jump out of the woodworks and you know, jump out of the woodworks and you know, the first thing they they don't know if the first thing they they don't know if the first thing they they don't know if this is a tech podcast or if this is this is a tech podcast or if this is this is a tech podcast or if this is like Millie vanilla. I think in addition to many other issues I think in addition to many other issues that we can talk about with AI, I think that we can talk about with AI, I think that we can talk about with AI, I think especially when you're trying to deploy especially when you're trying to deploy especially when you're trying to deploy something where accuracy is important, something where accuracy is important, something where accuracy is important, vital in in fact, uh it it just doesn't vital in in fact, uh it it just doesn't vital in in fact, uh it it just doesn't cut it, right? So people trying to do be cut it, right? So people trying to do be cut it, right? So people trying to do be AI first and stuff, I mean it just it AI first and stuff, I mean it just it AI first and stuff, I mean it just it just doesn't work that way. Yeah. Yeah. just doesn't work that way. Yeah. Yeah. just doesn't work that way. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. anything deterministic. I mean AI Yeah. anything deterministic. I mean AI Yeah. anything deterministic. I mean AI is inherently an indeterministic system. is inherently an indeterministic system. is inherently an indeterministic system. So you want to be this is the issue like So you want to be this is the issue like So you want to be this is the issue like like aerospace has with AI, right? The like aerospace has with AI, right? The like aerospace has with AI, right? The aerospace industry which you know needs aerospace industry which you know needs aerospace industry which you know needs to be very deterministic and very to be very deterministic and very to be very deterministic and very buttoned up and all the data needs to buttoned up and all the data needs to buttoned up and all the data needs to have, you know, provenance and have, you know, provenance and have, you know, provenance and integrity. Um and you start you can't integrity. Um and you start you can't integrity. Um and you start you can't just kind of throw a a Jetson box in just kind of throw a a Jetson box in just kind of throw a a Jetson box in there and starting it. Well, but I mean there and starting it. Well, but I mean there and starting it. Well, but I mean we we we we talked about that on the we we we we talked about that on the we we we we talked about that on the show several times. I think show several times. I think show several times. I think it's statistical is based on existing it's statistical is based on existing it's statistical is based on existing text. So it's so I always say the same text. So it's so I always say the same text. So it's so I always say the same thing. If you're looking to learn about thing. If you're looking to learn about thing. If you're looking to learn about the subject area that has been very well
-
the subject area that has been very well the subject area that has been very well documented for years, it will be of documented for years, it will be of documented for years, it will be of fantastic help. But if you're trying to fantastic help. But if you're trying to fantastic help. But if you're trying to create something totally new or create something totally new or create something totally new or demonstrate something that has not been demonstrate something that has not been demonstrate something that has not been crafted yet, it will just generate crafted yet, it will just generate crafted yet, it will just generate garbage. It is as simple as that. So garbage. It is as simple as that. So garbage. It is as simple as that. So it's very funny because there was this it's very funny because there was this it's very funny because there was this uh that was published in France uh that was published in France uh that was published in France yesterday but I think it's based on MIT yesterday but I think it's based on MIT yesterday but I think it's based on MIT research where they actually looked at research where they actually looked at research where they actually looked at how people cognitively behave when they how people cognitively behave when they how people cognitively behave when they write an essay with AI without AI and it write an essay with AI without AI and it write an essay with AI without AI and it actually shows that you basically you actually shows that you basically you actually shows that you basically you become more dumb if you write essays become more dumb if you write essays become more dumb if you write essays with genai which I would say you make with genai which I would say you make with genai which I would say you make total sense because what you expected to total sense because what you expected to total sense because what you expected to do with an essay is to write new do with an essay is to write new do with an essay is to write new thinking about a new subject. So if you thinking about a new subject. So if you thinking about a new subject. So if you if you expect GI to help you is that if you expect GI to help you is that if you expect GI to help you is that you're totally wrong. So now GI can help you're totally wrong. So now GI can help you're totally wrong. So now GI can help you learn about the subject and then you learn about the subject and then you learn about the subject and then form your mind and write something. But form your mind and write something. But form your mind and write something. But if the use case that is wrong, we're if the use case that is wrong, we're if the use case that is wrong, we're trying to use those things for replace trying to use those things for replace trying to use those things for replace human cognition. Yeah, for me it's human cognition. Yeah, for me it's human cognition. Yeah, for me it's fantastic to just to get access to fantastic to just to get access to fantastic to just to get access to knowledge. Now if it's an edge science, knowledge. Now if it's an edge science, knowledge. Now if it's an edge science, I'm not going to ask Jai. If I want to I'm not going to ask Jai. If I want to I'm not going to ask Jai. If I want to learn about roofing, which I'm doing at learn about roofing, which I'm doing at learn about roofing, which I'm doing at the moment for whatever reason, the moment for whatever reason, the moment for whatever reason, fantastic. Because there's tons of fantastic. Because there's tons of fantastic. Because there's tons of things that have been written about things that have been written about things that have been written about roofing. Yeah. Yeah. I agree with you, roofing. Yeah. Yeah. I agree with you, roofing. Yeah. Yeah. I agree with you, man. I I was doing that with like I had man. I I was doing that with like I had man. I I was doing that with like I had uh um you know, do-it-yourself project uh um you know, do-it-yourself project uh um you know, do-it-yourself project that I had to do for one of the rent, that I had to do for one of the rent, that I had to do for one of the rent, you know, properties that I have.

yeah, it was helpful. You take a picture yeah, it was helpful. You take a picture to how to Yeah. Yeah. But that's not to how to Yeah. Yeah. But that's not to how to Yeah. Yeah. But that's not necessarily generative AI. That's the necessarily generative AI. That's the necessarily generative AI. That's the problem. Everyone thinks that that's problem. Everyone thinks that that's problem. Everyone thinks that that's generative AI. Yeah, it is search. You generative AI. Yeah, it is search. You generative AI. Yeah, it is search. You know, like circle, what do you call know, like circle, what do you call know, like circle, what do you call circle to search on Google? Yeah. I I circle to search on Google? Yeah. I I circle to search on Google? Yeah. I I can't tell you how many people think can't tell you how many people think can't tell you how many people think that's generative AI. It's not. Yeah. that's generative AI. It's not. Yeah. that's generative AI. It's not. Yeah.

Oh, this has nothing to is how it work. Oh, this has nothing to is how it work. Oh, this has nothing to do with generative A. So, but Demetri, I do with generative A. So, but Demetri, I do with generative A. So, but Demetri, I I want to know why Dimmitri is uh I want to know why Dimmitri is uh I want to know why Dimmitri is uh researching roofies. I don't understand researching roofies. I don't understand researching roofies. I don't understand that. No, roofing. Roofing. Oh, roofing. that. No, roofing. Roofing. Oh, roofing. that. No, roofing. Roofing. Oh, roofing. Okay, roof. Got it. No, but he's going Okay, roof. Got it. No, but he's going Okay, roof. Got it. No, but he's going out clubbing tonight and he was out clubbing tonight and he was out clubbing tonight and he was researching roofies. No, that was a long researching roofies. No, that was a long researching roofies. No, that was a long time ago. We know what he Okay. All time ago. We know what he Okay. All time ago. We know what he Okay. All right. Way past that.

All right. No to jail. My mistake. I misheard. No, but jail. My mistake. I misheard. No, but jail. My mistake. I misheard. No, but but I I I'm not totally in agreement but I I I'm not totally in agreement but I I I'm not totally in agreement with you, Leonard, here because I do with you, Leonard, here because I do with you, Leonard, here because I do believe that the problem with search is believe that the problem with search is believe that the problem with search is that there's so much content you can that there's so much content you can that there's so much content you can distill it. And one thing that Gai is distill it. And one thing that Gai is distill it. And one thing that Gai is good at is finding patterns. It's true.

good at is finding patterns. It's true. good at is finding patterns. It's true. That's true. So again, but again, you That's true. So again, but again, you That's true. So again, but again, you have to look at the scope of what you're have to look at the scope of what you're have to look at the scope of what you're looking for. You have to look for things looking for. You have to look for things looking for. You have to look for things that you know or have good confidence that you know or have good confidence that you know or have good confidence that the field has been researched and that the field has been researched and that the field has been researched and there's enough good quality information there's enough good quality information there's enough good quality information about it. And no, but but think about about it. And no, but but think about about it. And no, but but think about how search works, okay? Typically what how search works, okay? Typically what how search works, okay? Typically what we used to do is we used to tag content, we used to do is we used to tag content, we used to do is we used to tag content, right? You tag content, there's metadata right? You tag content, there's metadata right? You tag content, there's metadata that describes um the content and then that describes um the content and then that describes um the content and then now with generative AI, it infers what now with generative AI, it infers what now with generative AI, it infers what that particular artifact, you know, that that particular artifact, you know, that that particular artifact, you know, that document, whatever it is, is right. And document, whatever it is, is right. And document, whatever it is, is right. And you know uh generative AI also leverages you know uh generative AI also leverages you know uh generative AI also leverages meta data. And so as we know on the meta data. And so as we know on the meta data. And so as we know on the internet tagging is not consistent. The internet tagging is not consistent. The internet tagging is not consistent. The the metadata is not consistent. A lot of the metadata is not consistent. A lot of the metadata is not consistent. A lot of is actually crap. And you have had over is actually crap. And you have had over is actually crap. And you have had over years this effort by the search engine years this effort by the search engine years this effort by the search engine companies to make the data better, companies to make the data better, companies to make the data better, right? the metadata better so that you right? the metadata better so that you right? the metadata better so that you can find uh content or at least they can find uh content or at least they can find uh content or at least they could um then control what you could see could um then control what you could see could um then control what you could see more accurately, right? That really is more accurately, right? That really is more accurately, right? That really is the purpose. So balancing, you know, how the purpose. So balancing, you know, how the purpose. So balancing, you know, how do we mic how do we somehow enable our do we mic how do we somehow enable our do we mic how do we somehow enable our marketing microtargeting ad engine with marketing microtargeting ad engine with marketing microtargeting ad engine with valuable s search results, right? That's
-
valuable s search results, right? That's valuable s search results, right? That's been their goal. And with generative AI, been their goal. And with generative AI, been their goal. And with generative AI, there's this this uh layer of in there's this this uh layer of in there's this this uh layer of in inference that adds all of the inference that adds all of the inference that adds all of the challenges that generative AI engines challenges that generative AI engines challenges that generative AI engines bring to the table, right? Um where I bring to the table, right? Um where I bring to the table, right? Um where I mean it is the hallucinations and mean it is the hallucinations and mean it is the hallucinations and that that doesn't necessarily make that that doesn't necessarily make that that doesn't necessarily make things better. That's why like uh what things better. That's why like uh what things better. That's why like uh what do you call it? Over uh what do you call do you call it? Over uh what do you call do you call it?

And certainly that area can use a much certainly that area can use a much certainly that area can use a much better kind of AI backend and aentic AI better kind of AI backend and aentic AI better kind of AI backend and aentic AI framework to help people answer framework to help people answer framework to help people answer questions with the most mundane things questions with the most mundane things questions with the most mundane things possible. Oh, yeah. So there's lots of possible. Oh, yeah. So there's lots of possible. Oh, yeah. So there's lots of areas here that'll get improved on a areas here that'll get improved on a areas here that'll get improved on a daily basis and make businesses a lot daily basis and make businesses a lot daily basis and make businesses a lot more efficient. more efficient. more efficient.

Yeah. You know, here's the Last Pass. Yeah. You know, here's the Last Pass. Yeah. You know, here's the thing that never sent us an email or a thing that never sent us an email or a thing that never sent us an email or a warning or you need to change your Last warning or you need to change your Last warning or you need to change your Last Pass password. Nothing. Here's the thing Pass password. Nothing. Here's the thing Pass password. Nothing. Here's the thing that's really scary that for some that's really scary that for some that's really scary that for some reason, this is the weird thing, people reason, this is the weird thing, people reason, this is the weird thing, people just don't seem to take this angle on just don't seem to take this angle on just don't seem to take this angle on these incidents is that the institutions these incidents is that the institutions these incidents is that the institutions that you deal with, they don't trust that you deal with, they don't trust that you deal with, they don't trust you. Now, you. Now, you. Now, you know, when we talk about hacks, we you know, when we talk about hacks, we you know, when we talk about hacks, we always talk about, oh, my my uh personal always talk about, oh, my my uh personal always talk about, oh, my my uh personal information got compromised and you information got compromised and you information got compromised and you know, somebody can steal my crap, right?
-
know, somebody can steal my crap, right? know, somebody can steal my crap, right? And they can impersonate me. Well, yeah. And they can impersonate me. Well, yeah. And they can impersonate me. Well, yeah. And that also means that that And that also means that that And that also means that that institution, whether it's a bank or it's institution, whether it's a bank or it's institution, whether it's a bank or it's a government agency, they can't trust a government agency, they can't trust a government agency, they can't trust your digital identity, right? I prefer your digital identity, right? I prefer your digital identity, right? I prefer that. Huh? I prefer that. that. Huh? I prefer that. that. Huh? I prefer that. Make me prove that I am who I am. That's Make me prove that I am who I am. That's Make me prove that I am who I am. That's the foundation. That's the foundation of the foundation. That's the foundation of the foundation. That's the foundation of trust unraveling underneath us, man. trust unraveling underneath us, man. trust unraveling underneath us, man. That's because the foundation of trust That's because the foundation of trust That's because the foundation of trust has never been established. Correct. has never been established. Correct. has never been established. Correct. This is not about trust. It's about This is not about trust. It's about This is not about trust. It's about authentication. two they're very authentication. two they're very authentication. two they're very different things. No, the foundation of different things. No, the foundation of different things. No, the foundation of trust. If you can't They're tied trust. If you can't They're tied trust. If you can't They're tied together. Yeah. Yeah. They're tied together. Yeah. Yeah. They're tied together. Yeah. Yeah. They're tied together, but they're not one cannot together, but they're not one cannot together, but they're not one cannot replace the other is the point. But if replace the other is the point. But if replace the other is the point. But if you don't trust, you can't do the other you don't trust, you can't do the other you don't trust, you can't do the other end of it. You need the two together. end of it. You need the two together. end of it. You need the two together. Absolutely. I mean, for example, I know some banks I mean, for example, I know some banks had doubled down over the years, which I had doubled down over the years, which I had doubled down over the years, which I thought was laughable on using voice as thought was laughable on using voice as thought was laughable on using voice as a authentication factor. And I'm like, I a authentication factor. And I'm like, I a authentication factor. And I'm like, I know what my voice is my password. My know what my voice is my password. My know what my voice is my password. My voice is my password. That was horrible.
-
voice is my password. That was horrible. voice is my password. That was horrible. It's terrible. And it I mean, it was It's terrible. And it I mean, it was It's terrible. And it I mean, it was never a good idea. And it's totally not never a good idea. And it's totally not never a good idea. And it's totally not a good idea right now. So, really, a good idea right now. So, really, a good idea right now. So, really, really bad. Give me an example of a good really bad. Give me an example of a good really bad. Give me an example of a good idea from a bank. idea from a bank. idea from a bank. So now they're going to need blood So now they're going to need blood So now they're going to need blood samples. It's going to turn to gatka, samples. It's going to turn to gatka, samples. It's going to turn to gatka, you know. Love that. Yeah, that's not you know. Love that. Yeah, that's not you know. Love that. Yeah, that's not far. Yeah. Are you Are you meaning that Yeah. Are you Are you meaning that selection can replace trust? selection can replace trust? selection can replace trust? What? What? What? Meaning that selection can replace trust Meaning that selection can replace trust Meaning that selection can replace trust when when when No, that's a different problem. Yeah. No No, that's a different problem. Yeah. No No, that's a different problem. Yeah. No one no one's talking about the genetic one no one's talking about the genetic one no one's talking about the genetic engineering that's happening with engineering that's happening with engineering that's happening with crisper and probably how like some of crisper and probably how like some of crisper and probably how like some of these celebrities and really rich people these celebrities and really rich people these celebrities and really rich people are genetically engineering their are genetically engineering their are genetically engineering their progeny to become super humans. That was progeny to become super humans. That was progeny to become super humans. That was the topic. That was that was the topic. the topic. That was that was the topic. the topic. That was that was the topic. That was the topic of Gatka. That's why That was the topic of Gatka. That's why That was the topic of Gatka. That's why it was I know. So what's going to happen it was I know. So what's going to happen it was I know. So what's going to happen based on the Gatka thing is the bank's based on the Gatka thing is the bank's based on the Gatka thing is the bank's going to do the blood sample. They're going to do the blood sample. They're going to do the blood sample. They're going to find out that you've got a going to find out that you've got a going to find out that you've got a disease that's going to hit you like in disease that's going to hit you like in disease that's going to hit you like in 6 months and they're not going to give 6 months and they're not going to give 6 months and they're not going to give you the 30 year mortgage on the house you the 30 year mortgage on the house you the 30 year mortgage on the house that you were trying to get.

that you were trying to get. that you were trying to get. No, no, Rob. That's not farfetch. Oh my No, no, Rob. That's not farfetch. Oh my No, no, Rob. That's not farfetch. Oh my gosh. gosh. gosh. You're totally You are totally wrong, You're totally You are totally wrong, You're totally You are totally wrong, Rob. What the Okay, good. What the banks Rob. What the Okay, good. What the banks Rob. What the Okay, good. What the banks are going to do is to engineer people are going to do is to engineer people are going to do is to engineer people who are more likely to borrow money so who are more likely to borrow money so who are more likely to borrow money so they can make money out of them. This is they can make money out of them. This is they can make money out of them. This is your people. Yes. Wow. You want to do your people. Yes. Wow. You want to do your people. Yes. Wow. You want to do something? Are you talking about like something? Are you talking about like something? Are you talking about like kind of like the engineer in Prometheus? Prometheus. Yeah, there you go. Exactly. Prometheus. Yeah, there you go. Exactly. Like took the pill and he just body Like took the pill and he just body Like took the pill and he just body falls apart into the water system of a falls apart into the water system of a falls apart into the water system of a new planet and it creates a whole new So new planet and it creates a whole new So new planet and it creates a whole new So maybe that's what the banks are going to maybe that's what the banks are going to maybe that's what the banks are going to do is engineer new people who have good do is engineer new people who have good do is engineer new people who have good credit scores and can buy things. All credit scores and can buy things. All credit scores and can buy things. All right, I'm I'm done with that. Yeah, right, I'm I'm done with that. Yeah, right, I'm I'm done with that. Yeah, it's going to happen. No, no, but Rob, it's going to happen. No, no, but Rob, it's going to happen. No, no, but Rob, you don't want good credit score. You you don't want good credit score. You you don't want good credit score. You want bad credit score so you can spend want bad credit score so you can spend want bad credit score so you can spend money with a higher interest rate and money with a higher interest rate and money with a higher interest rate and make more money. You're not you're not make more money. You're not you're not make more money. You're not you're not getting we want the non-banked people. getting we want the non-banked people. getting we want the non-banked people. Yeah. You know you're not getting it. Yeah. You know you're not getting it. Yeah. You know you're not getting it. You want a whole generation of people You want a whole generation of people You want a whole generation of people who borrow a lot at high rates. This is who borrow a lot at high rates. This is who borrow a lot at high rates. This is how you make money. Ah, right. So it's how you make money. Ah, right. So it's how you make money. Ah, right. So it's not necessarily the blood work.
-
not necessarily the blood work. not necessarily the blood work. It's the clinics that the bad bankked It's the clinics that the bad bankked It's the clinics that the bad bankked people go to that we No, it's actually people go to that we No, it's actually people go to that we No, it's actually it's it's actually the generations. So it's it's actually the generations. So it's it's actually the generations. So Rob, you don't have to worry about it. Rob, you don't have to worry about it. Rob, you don't have to worry about it. You're too old. It's not going to it's You're too old. It's not going to it's You're too old. It's not going to it's not going to hit you. It'll hit it'll not going to hit you. It'll hit it'll not going to hit you. It'll hit it'll hit Gen Z and the alphas and then, you hit Gen Z and the alphas and then, you hit Gen Z and the alphas and then, you know, because they can't get jobs today know, because they can't get jobs today know, because they can't get jobs today coming out of college anyway. So they're coming out of college anyway. So they're coming out of college anyway. So they're going to need to go into debt to even going to need to go into debt to even going to need to go into debt to even more debt to actually survive. Actually, more debt to actually survive. Actually, more debt to actually survive. Actually, you know, Equifax Equifax buys Quest you know, Equifax Equifax buys Quest you know, Equifax Equifax buys Quest Diagnostics for blood work across the Oh Diagnostics for blood work across the Oh Diagnostics for blood work across the Oh my god, we're so bad and yet we're so my god, we're so bad and yet we're so my god, we're so bad and yet we're so prophetic. Yeah, it's a scary thing. We won't be laughing about that. We won't be laughing about that. Quest Diagnostics buys 23 and me at a Quest Diagnostics buys 23 and me at a Quest Diagnostics buys 23 and me at a bargain basement price. So now we just bargain basement price. So now we just bargain basement price. So now we just take your blood, put it into the system, take your blood, put it into the system, take your blood, put it into the system, and they know everything. Exactly. and they know everything. Exactly. and they know everything. Exactly. That's horrible. You know what I That's horrible. You know what I That's horrible. You know what I actually heard recently is somebody actually heard recently is somebody actually heard recently is somebody mentioning plumbers that you should mentioning plumbers that you should mentioning plumbers that you should become a plumber.

Like I was saying before, you know, in the real saying before, you know, in the real saying before, you know, in the real world, you want to solve problems as world, you want to solve problems as world, you want to solve problems as fast as you can for the least cost. And fast as you can for the least cost. And fast as you can for the least cost. And um that's just the way gravity works um that's just the way gravity works um that's just the way gravity works with business. I mean, it's just the way with business. I mean, it's just the way with business. I mean, it's just the way it is. So, but when you're doing that, it is. So, but when you're doing that, it is. So, but when you're doing that, you don't have to you don't have to say, you don't have to you don't have to say, you don't have to you don't have to say, well, our AI solution does this. It it's well, our AI solution does this. It it's well, our AI solution does this. It it's here's the problem. Here's the solution.

here's the problem. Here's the solution. here's the problem. Here's the solution. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. I know it's uh Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. I know it's uh Exactly. Exactly. Yeah. I know it's uh it's it's you know um and and you know it's it's you know um and and you know it's it's you know um and and you know another term that I've been using a lot another term that I've been using a lot another term that I've been using a lot is around sovereignty right so we're is around sovereignty right so we're is around sovereignty right so we're actually about to have this big event in actually about to have this big event in actually about to have this big event in Europe about AI Europe about AI Europe about AI the ability to have sovereignty over the ability to have sovereignty over the ability to have sovereignty over your data your your data sets your your data your your data sets your your data your your data sets your models your your hardware to run AI models your your hardware to run AI models your your hardware to run AI where you need to run it you know where you need to run it you know where you need to run it you know sovereignty is currency and uh and I sovereignty is currency and uh and I sovereignty is currency and uh and I think that that's going to be a big think that that's going to be a big think that that's going to be a big theme for folks is I can't bet the AI theme for folks is I can't bet the AI theme for folks is I can't bet the AI for my business on some other entity for my business on some other entity for my business on some other entity where I need to pay a tax, a cloud tax where I need to pay a tax, a cloud tax where I need to pay a tax, a cloud tax or a hyperscaler tax or end up right or or a hyperscaler tax or end up right or or a hyperscaler tax or end up right or end up in a uh well the big story is end up in a uh well the big story is end up in a uh well the big story is that open AI is in this uh litigation that open AI is in this uh litigation that open AI is in this uh litigation with uh New York Times and the um the with uh New York Times and the um the with uh New York Times and the um the judge in that case said that they have judge in that case said that they have judge in that case said that they have to stop deletion of all of their data to stop deletion of all of their data to stop deletion of all of their data everywhere in the world. And so that's everywhere in the world. And so that's everywhere in the world. And so that's like a disaster. Huge. Yeah. But no, like a disaster. Huge. Yeah. But no, like a disaster. Huge. Yeah. But no, it's really high risk. uh it's only the it's really high risk. uh it's only the it's really high risk. uh it's only the tip of the iceberg because if you you tip of the iceberg because if you you tip of the iceberg because if you you think if you think about it deeply they think if you think about it deeply they think if you think about it deeply they should delete the data and retrain the should delete the data and retrain the should delete the data and retrain the model without the data because the model model without the data because the model model without the data because the model data so data so data so it's an illusion the data is out it's an it's an illusion the data is out it's an it's an illusion the data is out it's an illusion now you know what one of the illusion now you know what one of the illusion now you know what one of the biggest problems the data did they biggest problems the data did they biggest problems the data did they really delete the data really delete the data really delete the data even even even if you do the residual value is in the if you do the residual value is in the if you do the residual value is in the model the pattern has been created in model the pattern has been created in model the pattern has been created in the model so I If you really believe in

the model so I If you really believe in the model so I If you really believe in privacy, you should not say delete my privacy, you should not say delete my privacy, you should not say delete my data. You should say delete my data and data. You should say delete my data and data. You should say delete my data and drain every single model that I was used drain every single model that I was used drain every single model that I was used to train. Otherwise, it's an illusion. to train. Otherwise, it's an illusion. to train. Otherwise, it's an illusion. Especially Especially Especially just remember folks, the files are in just remember folks, the files are in just remember folks, the files are in the computer. the computer. the computer. No, they're No, they're No, they're connected. It's connected. They're in the they're It's connected. They're in the they're in the cloud already. You're done, my in the cloud already.

You know, I was I was very not unrelated You know, I was I was very not unrelated You know, I was I was very not unrelated but arguing with some people recently but arguing with some people recently but arguing with some people recently about you those those token card about you those those token card about you those those token card security like the RSA token so and they security like the RSA token so and they security like the RSA token so and they were saying oh it's so old now you have were saying oh it's so old now you have were saying oh it's so old now you have the one that you can plug in with USB the one that you can plug in with USB the one that you can plug in with USB you have the UB keys and I'm saying guys you have the UB keys and I'm saying guys you have the UB keys and I'm saying guys if you plug the thing in you're never if you plug the thing in you're never if you plug the thing in you're never sure what's going to happen so a little sure what's going to happen so a little sure what's going to happen so a little device that is that you prove your device that is that you prove your device that is that you prove your process and that you have a secret to process and that you have a secret to process and that you have a secret to unlock yourself is still the most secure unlock yourself is still the most secure unlock yourself is still the most secure way to authenticate way to authenticate way to authenticate not connected most trusted way secure is not connected most trusted way secure is not connected most trusted way secure is secure is different that's see that's secure is different that's see that's secure is different that's see that's the thing the thing the thing it's both it's both it's both I like the idea of draining though I I like the idea of draining though I I like the idea of draining though I like the term draining how do you drain like the term draining how do you drain like the term draining how do you drain data yes I've been advocating that for data yes I've been advocating that for data yes I've been advocating that for years now because when the when the years now because when the when the years now because when the when the Europe came with this GDPR and this Europe came with this GDPR and this Europe came with this GDPR and this right to be forgotten I told oh it's an right to be forgotten I told oh it's an right to be forgotten I told oh it's an illusion you've been giving data for 10 illusion you've been giving data for 10 illusion you've been giving data for 10 years they they train model for 10 years they they train model for 10 years they they train model for 10 years, you're still there. You can

years, you're still there. You can years, you're still there. You can delete whatever you want. You're still delete whatever you want. You're still delete whatever you want. You're still there. So training isn't the the problem there. So training isn't the the problem there. So training isn't the the problem of forgetting. So if we look at these of forgetting. So if we look at these of forgetting. So if we look at these world models, that's that's a big issue, world models, that's that's a big issue, world models, that's that's a big issue, right? And that's why you you continue right? And that's why you you continue right? And that's why you you continue to have like these performance issues to have like these performance issues to have like these performance issues because over time they all decline as because over time they all decline as because over time they all decline as you continue to train them and make them you continue to train them and make them you continue to train them and make them larger. But when you bring them down to larger. But when you bring them down to larger. But when you bring them down to enterprise, you have the same problem. enterprise, you have the same problem. enterprise, you have the same problem. um you know these embeddings don't um you know these embeddings don't um you know these embeddings don't necessarily have a time stamp or any necessarily have a time stamp or any necessarily have a time stamp or any anything that contextualizes their anything that contextualizes their anything that contextualizes their relevance as knowledge right um and so relevance as knowledge right um and so relevance as knowledge right um and so the right the ability for these things the right the ability for these things the right the ability for these things to selectively forget is important but to selectively forget is important but to selectively forget is important but they there's no way of doing that right they there's no way of doing that right they there's no way of doing that right and and so this is this is just the and and so this is this is just the and and so this is this is just the comical stuff right it's called it's comical stuff right it's called it's comical stuff right it's called it's called it's called catastrophic called it's called catastrophic called it's called catastrophic forgetting where it may forget stuff. It forgetting where it may forget stuff. It forgetting where it may forget stuff. It may forget stuff that's good or bad. So may forget stuff that's good or bad. So may forget stuff that's good or bad. So there is there is a way. It's just there is there is a way. It's just there is there is a way. It's just extremely expensive. If you keep the extremely expensive. If you keep the extremely expensive. If you keep the data you use to train your model, you data you use to train your model, you data you use to train your model, you can remove the data and retrain your can remove the data and retrain your can remove the data and retrain your model, but it cost a lot. Exactly. No, model, but it cost a lot. Exactly. No, model, but it cost a lot. Exactly. No, it's not that complicated. Actually, it's not that complicated. Actually, it's not that complicated. Actually, it's very the people say, "Oh, it's too it's very the people say, "Oh, it's too it's very the people say, "Oh, it's too complicated. We can do." Yes, you can complicated. We can do." Yes, you can complicated. We can do." Yes, you can freaking do it because it's expensive.

Summary
The main theme is the IoT Coffee Talk podcast, where the hosts admit their content requires listeners to sift through "nonsense" for valuable insights to transform businesses. They reference an air guitar contest as a humorous example of dedication and also highlight their charity, Elevate our Kids, which aims to bridge the digital divide for K-12 students in the age of AI. The practical takeaway is to engage with their content critically for useful information and to consider donating to their charitable cause for kids.
