-
used the wind Windows co-pilot thing to used the wind Windows co-pilot thing to do your do your do your reservations yeah I don't know what it reservations yeah I don't know what it reservations yeah I don't know what it what Outlook does but it is on and oh what Outlook does but it is on and oh what Outlook does but it is on and oh because they added it right to office because they added it right to office because they added it right to office you know I freaking turned it in crap you know I freaking turned it in crap you know I freaking turned it in crap off off off man so anyways this is the first yeah it man so anyways this is the first yeah it man so anyways this is the first yeah it could have cost could have cost could have cost me me me what Debbie's what Debbie's what Debbie's going Debbie you're actually thinking going Debbie you're actually thinking going Debbie you're actually thinking serves you right I I right I I know I mean you don't know you know you know I mean you don't know you know you know I mean you don't know you know you want want want to use these things for things they say to use these things for things they say to use these things for things they say that they can do but when they don't do that they can do but when they don't do that they can do but when they don't do them it's like you know they basically them it's like you know they basically them it's like you know they basically struggling say well we told you that struggling say well we told you that struggling say well we told you that it's not perfect so kind of like it it's not perfect so kind of like it it's not perfect so kind of like it sucks to be you unfortunately yeah sucks to be you unfortunately yeah sucks to be you unfortunately yeah yeah you know what I learned here at mwc yeah you know what I learned here at mwc yeah you know what I learned here at mwc is that you really need to check sources is that you really need to check sources is that you really need to check sources are more important now than ever to be are more important now than ever to be are more important now than ever to be able to have access to you know direct able to have access to you know direct able to have access to you know direct sources versus having to deal with all sources versus having to deal with all sources versus having to deal with all these abstraction levels so now with a these abstraction levels so now with a these abstraction levels so now with a lot of these search engines that have lot of these search engines that have lot of these search engines that have gone overboard with generative Ai and gone overboard with generative Ai and gone overboard with generative Ai and doing these summarizations and God knows doing these summarizations and God knows doing these summarizations and God knows what they're doing with the their search what they're doing with the their search what they're doing with the their search engine engine engine how do you get underneath all those
-
how do you get underneath all those how do you get underneath all those abstractions and then actually hit abstractions and then actually hit abstractions and then actually hit sources I think that's like a agree you sources I think that's like a agree you sources I think that's like a agree you should have stuck with your sources man should have stuck with your sources man should have stuck with your sources man you should have just said I'm looking at you should have just said I'm looking at you should have just said I'm looking at my app for my my app for my my app for my Airline and it knows when I'm going Airline and it knows when I'm going Airline and it knows when I'm going exactly exactly oh my God you that exactly exactly oh my God you that exactly exactly oh my God you that awkward moment when you look at your awkward moment when you look at your awkward moment when you look at your upcoming trips and the next one is Las upcoming trips and the next one is Las upcoming trips and the next one is Las Vegas socer oh jeez Vegas socer oh jeez Vegas socer oh jeez yeah no yeah no yeah no kidding kidding kidding probably probably has something to do probably probably has something to do probably probably has something to do with the time zone it's probably time with the time zone it's probably time with the time zone it's probably time confused yeah yeah yeah could be confused yeah yeah yeah could be confused yeah yeah yeah could be absolutely oh my absolutely oh my absolutely oh my gosh you imagine though luckily it was gosh you imagine though luckily it was gosh you imagine though luckily it was not a super traumatic horrible deal like not a super traumatic horrible deal like not a super traumatic horrible deal like so are you rebooked on a flight it cost so are you rebooked on a flight it cost so are you rebooked on a flight it cost me 20 me 20 me 20 cents cents cents oh like horrible I mean I can't believe oh like horrible I mean I can't believe oh like horrible I mean I can't believe I'm going to I'm going to call them and I'm going to I'm going to call them and I'm going to I'm going to call them and complain but can you imagine though if complain but can you imagine though if complain but can you imagine though if the same scenario though and you were the same scenario though and you were the same scenario though and you were trying to get the last fly out of keev trying to get the last fly out of keev trying to get the last fly out of keev before the Russians invaded But your before the Russians invaded But your before the Russians invaded But your co-pilot screwed up and now it's the co-pilot screwed up and now it's the co-pilot screwed up and now it's the next day and now you don't get out next day and now you don't get out next day and now you don't get out huh State the state of Leonard Lee could huh State the state of Leonard Lee could huh State the state of Leonard Lee could sue uh you know the right authorities to sue uh you know the right authorities to sue uh you know the right authorities to at least put some money in the State at least put some money in the State at least put some money in the State because that failure resulted in our man because that failure resulted in our man because that failure resulted in our man not making it out of this Eastern

one of the things you know like when one of the things you know like when they start the US government started they start the US government started they start the US government started restricting uh sales of the restricting uh sales of the restricting uh sales of the h100s and h100s and h100s and um you know forcing Nvidia to throttle um you know forcing Nvidia to throttle um you know forcing Nvidia to throttle you know send them Throttle Down you know send them Throttle Down you know send them Throttle Down versions of their Hardware you know I versions of their Hardware you know I versions of their Hardware you know I pointed out last year oh wait a minute pointed out last year oh wait a minute pointed out last year oh wait a minute networking and interin is actually more networking and interin is actually more networking and interin is actually more important in scaling than the chips important in scaling than the chips important in scaling than the chips themselves right and they hadn't thought themselves right and they hadn't thought themselves right and they hadn't thought of that stuff at the time um you mean of that stuff at the time um you mean of that stuff at the time um you mean meaning the US government and what I meaning the US government and what I meaning the US government and what I noticed that they had like 300 gabit noticed that they had like 300 gabit noticed that they had like 300 gabit like fiber links uh for like fiber links uh for like fiber links uh for interconnecting racks and then now this interconnecting racks and then now this interconnecting racks and then now this year here they I think they introduced year here they I think they introduced year here they I think they introduced something um that is an implementation something um that is an implementation something um that is an implementation of optical for the the server to server of optical for the the server to server of optical for the the server to server interconnect using fiber and um fiber interconnect using fiber and um fiber interconnect using fiber and um fiber between servers yeah the r instead of between servers yeah the r instead of between servers yeah the r instead of which is really expensive yeah it is and which is really expensive yeah it is and which is really expensive yeah it is and um takes a lot of um takes a lot of um takes a lot of power I and I was I was asking this power I and I was I was asking this power I and I was I was asking this dude these questions I couldn't dude these questions I couldn't dude these questions I couldn't understand about I would say 80% of what understand about I would say 80% of what understand about I would say 80% of what he was saying because his English wasn't he was saying because his English wasn't he was saying because his English wasn't all that great because he was speaking Chinese maybe maybe um yeah he was Chinese maybe maybe um yeah he was speaking English with a Chinese accent speaking English with a Chinese accent speaking English with a Chinese accent so I couldn't really understand so I couldn't really understand so I couldn't really understand everything but I saw some of the

everything but I saw some of the everything but I saw some of the diagrams and I posted on LinkedIn um diagrams and I posted on LinkedIn um diagrams and I posted on LinkedIn um These Guys these guys know what they're These Guys these guys know what they're These Guys these guys know what they're doing and they have so many other ways doing and they have so many other ways doing and they have so many other ways of scaling out compute that especially of scaling out compute that especially of scaling out compute that especially at a a huge scale like a super cluster at a a huge scale like a super cluster at a a huge scale like a super cluster scale um there's going to be no way to scale um there's going to be no way to scale um there's going to be no way to stop these guys um I mean people who are stop these guys um I mean people who are stop these guys um I mean people who are familiar with people are familiar with familiar with people are familiar with familiar with people are familiar with Mobile World Congress year in year out Mobile World Congress year in year out Mobile World Congress year in year out they know that there's this glomo awards they know that there's this glomo awards they know that there's this glomo awards that happen every time wuwei almost that happen every time wuwei almost that happen every time wuwei almost swept like every award in the glomo swept like every award in the glomo swept like every award in the glomo Awards this year like almost Awards this year like almost Awards this year like almost everything one that caught my attention everything one that caught my attention everything one that caught my attention from Huawei which in a way has nothing from Huawei which in a way has nothing from Huawei which in a way has nothing nothing to do with tech itself is that nothing to do with tech itself is that nothing to do with tech itself is that they have a a focus for the uh the they have a a focus for the uh the they have a a focus for the uh the telecoms that they trying to sell to telecoms that they trying to sell to telecoms that they trying to sell to into Africa and they did this whole into Africa and they did this whole into Africa and they did this whole section on uh basically a white paper section on uh basically a white paper section on uh basically a white paper for the most efficient way to construct for the most efficient way to construct for the most efficient way to construct construct passive Optical land like your construct passive Optical land like your construct passive Optical land like your your fiber to the office sort of thing your fiber to the office sort of thing your fiber to the office sort of thing and then like we can even help you down and then like we can even help you down and then like we can even help you down with construction because you know with construction because you know with construction because you know Wireless is not wir or less and they Wireless is not wir or less and they Wireless is not wir or less and they made this part of the conversation made this part of the conversation made this part of the conversation because you might have a partner in a because you might have a partner in a because you might have a partner in a country in Africa where they don't have country in Africa where they don't have country in Africa where they don't have this expertise they're giving them the this expertise they're giving them the this expertise they're giving them the blueprints like buy this kid from us blueprints like buy this kid from us blueprints like buy this kid from us we're going to help you down with we're going to help you down with we're going to help you down with construction what they didn't mention is construction what they didn't mention is construction what they didn't mention is also that they'll Finance

also that they'll Finance also that they'll Finance it of course they will of course they it of course they will of course they it of course they will of course they will we knew that but that wasn't you will we knew that but that wasn't you will we knew that but that wasn't you know like it was said but didn't have to know like it was said but didn't have to know like it was said but didn't have to be said sort of thing and anyway that be said sort of thing and anyway that be said sort of thing and anyway that one I thought was you know uh reading one I thought was you know uh reading one I thought was you know uh reading between the lines here with with Huawei between the lines here with with Huawei between the lines here with with Huawei there you go David I mean wi there you go David I mean wi there you go David I mean wi wirel Wireless is really just less wire wirel Wireless is really just less wire wirel Wireless is really just less wire right that's really what it is yeah right that's really what it is yeah right that's really what it is yeah that's the last wild is Wireless it's that's the last wild is Wireless it's that's the last wild is Wireless it's yes it's less wire just to you know yeah yes it's less wire just to you know yeah yes it's less wire just to you know yeah reason once we figure out how to reason once we figure out how to reason once we figure out how to transmit electricity to a light bulb transmit electricity to a light bulb transmit electricity to a light bulb just floating in the air with no wires just floating in the air with no wires just floating in the air with no wires then you know with made it then you know with made it then you know with made it oh at that point at that point Quantum oh at that point at that point Quantum oh at that point at that point Quantum is real yes and by the way uh if you is real yes and by the way uh if you is real yes and by the way uh if you guys in Texas need people to support guys in Texas need people to support guys in Texas need people to support your grid uh we just fired a bunch of your grid uh we just fired a bunch of your grid uh we just fired a bunch of people in Bonville power and they're people in Bonville power and they're people in Bonville power and they're great staff we have linemen we have um great staff we have linemen we have um great staff we have linemen we have um substation managers we've got all kinds substation managers we've got all kinds substation managers we've got all kinds of like talented deep expertise in the of like talented deep expertise in the of like talented deep expertise in the grid and they don't have a job here in grid and they don't have a job here in grid and they don't have a job here in the Northwest so if you would like to the Northwest so if you would like to the Northwest so if you would like to pick them up in Texas they'll be happy pick them up in Texas they'll be happy pick them up in Texas they'll be happy and we will all be better for it wow man and we will all be better for it wow man and we will all be better for it wow man that's sad yeah wow let me show you that's sad yeah wow let me show you that's sad yeah wow let me show you something show us you know um I don't something show us you know um I don't something show us you know um I don't even know what the freaking hell this even know what the freaking hell this even know what the freaking hell this thing is called you know the thing that thing is called you know the thing that thing is called you know the thing that like holds your badge around your neck like holds your badge around your neck like holds your badge around your neck the oh the the oh the the oh the lanyard yeah thingy yeah you know

Innovation I I can't Apple hasn't done Innovation I I can't Apple hasn't done in years yeah I think to be honest in years yeah I think to be honest in years yeah I think to be honest who has know that that don't that that does not know that that don't that that does not fit within their DNA anymore primarily fit within their DNA anymore primarily fit within their DNA anymore primarily because when they were innovating they because when they were innovating they because when they were innovating they had hungry young Engineers they had had hungry young Engineers they had had hungry young Engineers they had thought leadership they were pushing the thought leadership they were pushing the thought leadership they were pushing the envelope uh and things of that nature so envelope uh and things of that nature so envelope uh and things of that nature so I mean literally them um Microsoft I mean literally them um Microsoft I mean literally them um Microsoft Google they're not that's that's a good Google they're not that's that's a good Google they're not that's that's a good point about a lack of innovation I mean point about a lack of innovation I mean point about a lack of innovation I mean you know obviously the you know we had you know obviously the you know we had you know obviously the you know we had the the latest Galaxy devices came out the the latest Galaxy devices came out the the latest Galaxy devices came out from Samsung and yeah I was watching One from Samsung and yeah I was watching One from Samsung and yeah I was watching One video and they're just like he was just video and they're just like he was just video and they're just like he was just like you know what our guy on YouTube like you know what our guy on YouTube like you know what our guy on YouTube man he's the ultimate reviewer of man he's the ultimate reviewer of man he's the ultimate reviewer of everything on the planet and he's just everything on the planet and he's just everything on the planet and he's just like he was comparing it to huawei's like he was comparing it to huawei's like he was comparing it to huawei's stuff actually he's just like well stuff actually he's just like well stuff actually he's just like well didn't really get any changes with the didn't really get any changes with the didn't really get any changes with the camera they didn't use this new camera they didn't use this new camera they didn't use this new Innovative type of battery that Huawei Innovative type of battery that Huawei Innovative type of battery that Huawei is now switched to that gets he like is now switched to that gets he like is now switched to that gets he like listed three things that I hadn't even listed three things that I hadn't even listed three things that I hadn't even thought of that Huawei was doing in thought of that Huawei was doing in thought of that Huawei was doing in their new smartphones that Sams their new smartphones that Sams their new smartphones that Sams he felt like they were coasting yeah I I he felt like they were coasting yeah I I he felt like they were coasting yeah I I I I think Samsung is in I I think Samsung is in I I think Samsung is in trouble um the South Korean electronics trouble um the South Korean electronics trouble um the South Korean electronics companies are in big trouble um because companies are in big trouble um because companies are in big trouble um because you know like at CES what you saw were you know like at CES what you saw were you know like at CES what you saw were the Japanese basically pivoting to some the Japanese basically pivoting to some the Japanese basically pivoting to some weird stuff weird stuff weird stuff like

that knows what Trump's going to say that knows what Trump's going to say tomorrow yes that's kind of like tomorrow yes that's kind of like tomorrow yes that's kind of like following Nancy Pelosi's stock picks following Nancy Pelosi's stock picks following Nancy Pelosi's stock picks right yeah exactly that's after the fact right yeah exactly that's after the fact right yeah exactly that's after the fact now you can now you can now you can get yeah no that's a good point I just get yeah no that's a good point I just get yeah no that's a good point I just have like I have memories this is so have like I have memories this is so have like I have memories this is so nostalgic I have fond memories of Nvidia nostalgic I have fond memories of Nvidia nostalgic I have fond memories of Nvidia at 145 those were the days 145 those were the days oh we down like at 111 now or something oh we down like at 111 now or something oh we down like at 111 now or something oh my God I I love how Rob doubles down oh my God I I love how Rob doubles down oh my God I I love how Rob doubles down on all these these yeah you can't satisfy the market unless yeah you can't satisfy the market unless yeah you can't satisfy the market unless you have like a 500% beat you know it's you have like a 500% beat you know it's you have like a 500% beat you know it's not enough to beat analyst expectations not enough to beat analyst expectations not enough to beat analyst expectations Nvidia has to just like blow up the Nvidia has to just like blow up the Nvidia has to just like blow up the planet each time but doesn't open eye planet each time but doesn't open eye planet each time but doesn't open eye now need to buy a whole lot from now need to buy a whole lot from now need to buy a whole lot from Nvidia yeah I mean you know we've talked Nvidia yeah I mean you know we've talked Nvidia yeah I mean you know we've talked about this before you could you could about this before you could you could about this before you could you could obviously based on how much money you obviously based on how much money you obviously based on how much money you know all the companies have uh committed know all the companies have uh committed know all the companies have uh committed to spending you know 100 billion here to spending you know 100 billion here to spending you know 100 billion here 100 billion there 60 billion 70 billion 100 billion there 60 billion 70 billion 100 billion there 60 billion 70 billion 80 billion all you know they're all 80 billion all you know they're all 80 billion all you know they're all doing it and so you're like somebody's doing it and so you're like somebody's doing it and so you're like somebody's getting paid nvidia's getting paid all getting paid nvidia's getting paid all getting paid nvidia's getting paid all the data center all the people who go to the data center all the people who go to the data center all the people who go to making a data center they're all getting making a data center they're all getting making a data center they're all getting paid um so paid um so paid um so yeah eventually they know eventually yeah eventually they know eventually yeah eventually they know eventually that's gonna fall down because I mean a that's gonna fall down because I mean a that's gonna fall down because I mean a lot of these are capital expenditures lot of these are capital expenditures lot of these are capital expenditures people don't make those in people don't make those in people don't make those in that often right so a lot of that now so
-
that often right so a lot of that now so that often right so a lot of that now so it's gonna have to fall down at some it's gonna have to fall down at some it's gonna have to fall down at some point maybe go back up at some point but point maybe go back up at some point but point maybe go back up at some point but I don't think so well one of the I don't think so well one of the I don't think so well one of the interesting conversations I had at mwc interesting conversations I had at mwc interesting conversations I had at mwc was on the topic of demand and there was on the topic of demand and there was on the topic of demand and there were several Executives that I was were several Executives that I was were several Executives that I was chatting with regarding like um the data chatting with regarding like um the data chatting with regarding like um the data center build outs and you know this idea center build outs and you know this idea center build outs and you know this idea and you know even for uh 5G actually you and you know even for uh 5G actually you and you know even for uh 5G actually you know um data right and this notion of know um data right and this notion of know um data right and this notion of demand and how that is reflective of demand and how that is reflective of demand and how that is reflective of Revenue and it's like well not really Revenue and it's like well not really Revenue and it's like well not really you know monetization just because you you know monetization just because you you know monetization just because you have demand and you're incurrent cost have demand and you're incurrent cost have demand and you're incurrent cost doesn't mean that that is you know new doesn't mean that that is you know new doesn't mean that that is you know new revenue or in the case of cryp uh not revenue or in the case of cryp uh not revenue or in the case of cryp uh not crypto um you know crypto um you know crypto um you know AI that the infrastructure demand has to AI that the infrastructure demand has to AI that the infrastructure demand has to be monetizable right otherwise you're be monetizable right otherwise you're be monetizable right otherwise you're just expanding capacity and you know just expanding capacity and you know just expanding capacity and you know there's just more traffic or more tokens there's just more traffic or more tokens there's just more traffic or more tokens um running through your system and the um running through your system and the um running through your system and the question of monetization is um you know question of monetization is um you know question of monetization is um you know um price per unit and if you can't um price per unit and if you can't um price per unit and if you can't charge for that charge for that charge for that demand it's not monetized right and you demand it's not monetized right and you demand it's not monetized right and you know it's it's so weird that you get know it's it's so weird that you get know it's it's so weird that you get into these conversations with people into these conversations with people into these conversations with people that should know better that don't know that should know better that don't know that should know better that don't know better better better well maybe it's like the people who well maybe it's like the people who well maybe it's like the people who think that that um corporate taxes are

Summary
This tech talk, "IoT Coffee Talk," discusses the practical application and potential pitfalls of AI-powered co-pilots, specifically referencing the MWC 2025 conference and the Microsoft Outlook/Office suite. The key takeaway is that while AI tools can be helpful, users must remain vigilant and double-check their outputs, as demonstrated by the missed flight due to a co-pilot error.
