Good stinking morning.
It's a what's up Wednesday.
What's up with your Wednesday?
We are live here. We're chilling. It's Wednesday. It's hump day. It's a what's up Wednesday. What's up with your Wednesday? We are live here.
We're chilling.
It's Wednesday.
It's hump day.
It's springtime.
Things are changing.
Everything's changing.
The world's changing, but we're all good.
We're groovy with it, right?
It is a wonderful day.
It doesn't get much better than this.
I'm looking right now at this thing that Vanessa Pages did.
She posted it a couple or 22 hours ago.
But everybody's on this kick of making themselves using the AI, right?
And making some game characters or what do they call these?
You know, those toys you can play barbie style right there in the box so i see vanessa
the web3 streamer but she's stepping out of the box she went full-on barbie style stepped all the
way out the box so that's really cool uh but yeah so it's a what's up wednesday we are here and
we're just chilling you know it's that same time place. We are here at the same time, same place, every week.
It's consistency. It's like it doesn't change. It hasn't changed for quite some time. It's in
the same time every week, same place, same time every week for quite some time now. So we are
here and it is good. So what's up this Wednesday? Well, let me tell you. Google made some new
announcements about the geospatial and how they do things there, which is fantastic because when
we talk about the new technology and everything that's happening and the geospatial stuff around
the world, like that is the talk. You've got companies like Niantic dropping entire game divisions, right?
Dropping entire game divisions just to focus on the mapping of the world and the geospatial and all of those things.
I am going to take a hot second here, mute my mic just to get reset as we get going.
I see you tech mental. Apologies, everybody for the quietness and the pause pause but we will be right back after these
non-messages Thank you. so what's up we are back with the what's up Wednesday stuff. We are, man, it is a good,
stinking day. There's lots of good things happening around the world, lots of sad things
happening around the world, but we're glad that we're here. If you're just tuning in,
good. You missed all the quiet stuff, right? Where there wasn't anything happening because
we haven't really started. We're only four four minutes in if you think that we are going to be just like chilling and hanging out you are right because that's all
it is it's a what's up wednesday so come up share what you've been working on share what you've got
going on i see tech metal is in here honeycomb's in here tech same stock is in here tech metal
good trash spot i mean well it's pretty trashy
but i've got some questions for you on how you did your lights and everything like that if you
wanted to answer some of those questions you don't have to but just some question on do you pre-build
all of those things before or do you build all of that in world right and just just some simple
little stuff you know again you don't have to answer.
Just those little things.
Everything, the little things.
Little things into everything.
Augmented reality is the talk of the town.
I started right before we went on mute.
I was talking about Google's new blog post
about the geospatial
and how they're doing things there, right?
It's a great little article.
It's a long, scientific, technical read.
So if you're into that kind of thing, by all means.
But it really opens up like, okay, so what they're using, right?
Because they've got all of these different data sets
and where they're going with this
and the direction of how they're using their AIs to do these things. So if you're into the geospatial
depending, all those kinds of fun words, whatever you want to say, but locking augmented reality
assets to real world locations and what they're really doing with this stuff, it's a great read.
Highly recommend it.
Go search it up.
Google geospatial report, right?
Just like that.
We do have, right now, it is Easter coming up right around the corner.
And since we're talking AR and we are one dollar land, I mean, what better than to have some sort of like egg hunt?
So to have an egg hunt, you got to have eggs. We'll have eggs. There's going to be different ones all around the world, actually,
and we will be using the different apps. If you have an egg hunt or you have a game or anything
like that, we want to play those too. We're not so selfish that we're only playing ours.
Play those two. We're not so selfish that we're only playing ours. Now with this one, though, with this one, there is a ticket being given away.
OK, there's a ticket being given away from that's going to the Bitcoin conference in Vegas.
There's a G.A. ticket for the Bitcoin conference in Vegas. You heard it, folks.
This Easter, you can find an egg with a Bitcoin conference ticket in it.
So if you want that, it's only transferable to only you.
It will not be transferable to anyone else.
So if you do win and you're like, well, I could win it and sell it, you got to use it.
Those are the rules.
You got to use it and you got to go.
And the reason you got to use it and you got to go is because because there's augmented reality stuff there, right for you to play with right
It would be kind of useless for you to sell it and then not go see that next part of the real part of the prize
Which is when you get there to vegas, right?
We won't go on all that, but there is a ga ticket. That is a pretty big prize if I do say so myself
Uh, so that's going to be out there
easter where there'll be a little thing going out watch for it it's going to be one dar full one
dar full so take it going out for the bitcoin conference in vegas if you're already going to
vegas and you're like dang just wanted to be there for that we got you the ga ticket going to the
conference you got in the door it's all you're gonna need everything else in there you got lots Dang, just wanted to be there for that. We got you. The GA ticket going to the conference.
You got in the door.
It's all you're going to need.
Everything else in there, you got lots of speakers going to be out there this year.
It's going to be, it's the year because 2026 is going to be huge.
Maybe everything crashes.
The whole world crumbles.
And we're left with no technology at all and we go back to sticks
and stones and and that's what we get in which case that's fine but at least we had fun doing
it the whole time right at least we had some fun this time okay so i went to go bring up tech and
then he just completely disappeared not sure if they're still here or what's going on there that's cool no harm no foul
testing one two testing ear them that's the crazy i love it when it does this i can't see you but i
hear you it's like oh it's like i do have friends the custodian the custodian clocked in
there are no curators in the trash house. There are custodians.
Hey, what's up?
Oh, I love that.
Yeah, yeah.
That's what I told Mike.
Meta Mike.
Good morning.
Just to answer your question, I owe all credits to Meta Mike.
He is the mad scientist that's like hey i have a um uh he's like hey i have i made this uh spatial environment that's actually inside of a garbage can i'm like what why and he's like i don't know
and i'm like all right cool it's like man let's uh if you if you allow me i could like you know
um curate some trash art i got a pretty you hefty collection and Tesla's, uh, trash art.
He's like, sure.
And he just went in and he doesn't like anything default.
So he went in for like two weeks and just got like, uh, between, um,
sketch fab unity and a blender and, and little help from ai i just saw this guy like
construct this and construct this thing and um at first it was like really pretty and i'm like
it's a little too pretty for trash and then he was like it's almost like we could just read each
other's mind and i started like showing him like the art and like getting him involved in the whole trash art community and understanding where this comes from where it's like hey yeah we don't like
your art it's not pretty you know it's not elegant you know it's not this and then he kind of got it
and then he just went in and he really really like made such a good it's inside of a trash bin i've never seen that before i mean in all of the the
the trashness um and then i invited a lot of the og uh trash artists to kind of like check it out
and you know um i've gotten a lot of great feedback and uh they've been contributing with some GLBs that I have actually in the trash bodega.
And so, yeah, that's it.
I don't know if you had any questions about that,
but he did a great job at just going in there and doing the black lights.
The black lights are pretty crazy when you go in there.
But, yeah, that's pretty much the story that's what's up no that
the lighting in there is incredible and the trash can are like because there's trash cans
right that are art right and and you're right i don't know that I've been in a trash can world, right? Where like the world is the trash can, right?
But it makes a lot of sense. There's trash art.
Yeah, there's trash art.
Right. And then he puts a portal inside of a garbage bin, which is the face of the raccoon.
And then you go in there and then you end up in the trash bodega,
which is actually, you can see that you are in a trash bin, which is, that is the original one,
the one he was talking about where I put up all my art up. And then from there, he created this,
this, the other one that you see kind of like in this dark neighborhood, which is where I went ahead and created
that video yesterday, kind of like on the fly.
I was like, wait a minute, I got to do something
for Tesla Tuesdays. I have to, have to, have to.
And it's like, I'm like,
all right, let me just put this together.
And then, you know, just kind of did a walkthrough
of it, added a little bit
of synthwave music.
And I think it all tied together.
And I was like, oh, i want to do more i'm
like no i gotta go i gotta go i had to change spark plugs in my car but yeah that was it
that's pretty funny that's what's up the uh change part plugs in my car that's like i gotta
rearrange my software um not saying that wasn't really excused i'm just saying it sounds it sounds
like the same it's like oh man like who I'm just saying it sounds like the same. It's like, oh, man.
Who does that?
Do people still actually change the spark plugs, or do you just get a new car?
I'm a starving trash artist.
He said I'm a trash.
I'm a starving trash artist.
I can't afford those luxuries.
We changed spark plugs.
Get it going.
We changed spark plugs.
I got close to $300,000. I'm getting ready to change the license plate on my car. Say I'm in one of those different miles. I'm in a real
miler club. You know, that's funny. Wow. I'm at one nine nine. I'll send you pics. Oh, that's
crazy. Look, look, being at two, nine, seven, eight, something like is just,
it's like, ah, it makes you want to go on a road trip, but calculate it out just like the exact
amount, you know what I mean? Just to get that little bit of that, you know, I want to go there
and back to my home where it's like perfect, right? But make it purposeful. So the video is
not boring. You know, just like i went to the gas station
what is what do you what do you think our our mileage or clock on the internet is that's what's crazy right if you could really see that how many websites you've been to how many
that's kind of crazy but everybody's bored in here listening to us but anyway what's up sexella human
honeycomb texas, hexadize.
Oh, wait a minute.
I'm talking to hexadize.
They're ghosting me.
Dude, that person has been trolling me for, like, forever.
Hexadize again.
Ever since Wonderland started, like, all they do is just watch.
They never join in talks.
It's like creepiest thing.
It's, like, creepiest thing.
Someone should do something.
So we should do something.
So listen, speaking of Google, there was, I believe, the CES software.
I think the Xreal glasses got one of the biggest awards for their form factor, which is really, really dope.
really really dope um but at the same time i i noticed that in today in google news um
i believe either samsung or google or maybe um in concert they released their xr yes um right
their xr which is supposedly has a kind of a two-way form factor. It's a VR and AR, but it's still not for public consumption.
But I was reading a little bit on that this morning.
Seems really interesting.
And it's funny because they're the ones that,
Samsung, they're the ones that create the glass
for a lot of these other companies.
So when people see that the Vision OS
looks a little bit like what's coming
out with samson like oh but why is it is it because that's their ip that's their glass
and that's why i guess i mean i don't like the fact that it looks so similar to it but it keeps
what i wish if we all i wish i wish but i wish it was a little bit more square, a little bit more different, like a couple of other people are doing it.
But, but it's interesting.
I mean, there's a difference between having the actual spatial OS, which is, I think, where a lot of these companies are going, where they're having their own, a computer just for, just for the spatial stuff.
I understand that part.
And then there's the AR aspect of it. But
I was in a group the other day talking and it was like, well, it would be interesting who can get as
close as possible to a form factor that, and I know it takes a lot more power and stuff like that,
that can seamlessly go from VR to AR, you know, with the same form factor on the same device, you know, depending on where you are,
what you're doing. You know, I'm riding my bike, trying to get to a meeting or to the office,
to the studio, and I got my AR glasses, which I'm recording not only air quality, but whatever
happens on the road, iguana, you know, trying to bunny hop iguanas. And then I get to the studio where there's
already a, you know, Wonderland AR, you know, activation happening. And I'm walking in, you
know, um, uh, late, you know, and, um, Hey, it, like the device already understands that I'm going
from an AR environment and there's already a VR environment set in place geofence, right?
And it already understands this. And now it kind of changes my interface where it's like, oh, wait,
now I'm seeing avatars. Now I'm seeing like I am one with the environment. I don't know,
just thinking about that. So you're saying, because because i was in my car the other day
trying to check out some some ar around the park because i didn't want to like walk all the way
and if i hear you right so if i i could still be like involved in the full experience that
everybody else is in but you know at the speed that my car is moving it was very choppy it wasn't
it wasn't steady with AR
as if I was in, say, a VR scene where it wasn't maybe trying to track my geospatial spot. It was
just with me inside that space. But as soon as I stop my car, I'm where I'm at, boom, I can
transfer without having to leave the meeting or the space that I'm at with everybody else.
for without having to leave the meeting or the space that i'm at with everybody else
and now it just automatically locks and then the geospatial and that environmental impact
starts to come into play with the augmented reality versus the virtual reality side without
having to change hardware or anything else right is that right here you're saying right yeah because
i mean think about it now i mean the is, and we've said this before, these quote unquote AR glasses are just secondary lenses, right? For surrogate screens, right? Okay, that's fine. We got to start somewhere.
I got Twix on. I'm looking at what's going on. On my right, I can interact with that, right? Because it's literally
just another screen. I mean, the way space and on cyber is right now, you don't need any of these
extra, you know, you don't need any of these extra like kind of components. They work pretty
well on a phone, on a tablet, on the computer. So it's just another browser, right?
But if you want to interact with it, but this is where the AI kicks in, right?
It kind of knows what, okay, it knows already.
It's like, okay, he's here.
He's going to have a talk, you know, in an hour.
He needs to be prepared for this.
And it should be already, I think that's where it's heading, where it's like, it already knows, you know, it's like you walk into that one room, it's like,
oh, okay, you know, you got to take off your shoes. You walk on the boat, you got to wear
those special shoes. That's where the AI kicks in. Everybody's wondering, well, what's the AI
going to do? Not just, you know, kind of translate that you're walking in. It's like,
oh, what are these people talking? You know, everyone in Miami talks Spanish or you're walking in, it's like, oh, what are these people talking? Everyone in Miami talks Spanish or when you're up in Canada, people talk French, depending on where you're going.
It knows this because it knows your geography. So that's one part where it's going to work.
But also I think about environments where it understands the difference between, hey,
I'm walking around. Well, what kind of flower is that? Is that a poisonous? Is that, you know,
is that poison Ivy there? You know, is that poison Oak, you know, is that iguana friendly,
you know? Oh, by the way, there's an activation here. You know, I'm thinking that's where we're
heading with these peripherals. Yeah. And not having to have an app that tells me, Hey,
this is like not having to have a specific app open,
be like, okay, I need my, I'm walking on a path, you know, warn me of flowers type of
Because at the same time, I want to know when all these other activations or things are
happening.
So I've been looking at RP1 a little bit, right?
But, and I think there's some some there's some companies out there people out
there that are trying to like create solve that ready player me uh or ready player one the
but that that solved solved that problem of where people everybody jumping in right so we can have
all of those things running inside that system so when when you are walking down the path and you do come across that flower that's poisonous, it's an automatic warning.
It's like, bam, bam.
You don't have to necessarily have something open all the time and have 1500 apps open.
You can have one service open that's connected to all these things.
Right. And that's what what I'm hearing.
But that's that's that's huge.
Have you looked at any of those things that are
like that where you have the open server but it's shared it's not shard which is fun when am i nerding
too hard here are we going are we going i don't know how you walk out of a, dude. I did, like, every day. Every day.
Every day.
Yeah, no, I'm the last nerd on Earth to actually have an AR lens.
I'm going to have to get a sponsor or something look my way.
But, yeah, no.
Yeah, kind of like what you're talking about because, okay,
so there's the whole we're looking for spatial activations we're looking for ar activations
but hey i'm i literally live like i could see the bay from my driveway and i you know there's
scientists constantly testing the waters doing this or looking for whatever prehistoric you know
sharp teeth whatever the case may be you, maybe they need these glasses for different things, you know, where it can speed up the process.
It's like, hey, why are the fish dying?
Is it pollution?
Is it, you know, or is there too much oxygen in the water?
Is it these glasses are going to help, you know, a lot of different situations?
You know, the activation is, you know, just nature on its own.
You know, how about that activation?
The activation that's always been here, you know, and I think that's I think that's what's going to that mainstream as if we, you know, that everybody wants, you know, whatever until it gets here and we realize we don't.
But I think that I think that's going to be very helpful for certain situations that way.
I think that's going to be very helpful for certain situations that way.
Yeah, I'm all about the actual use cases, the real world impact stuff.
And I'm with you, right?
Where you can get into not just the speaking, right?
You're hearing it make sounds and doing different things like that.
But as a monitor system, right? And being able to catch things a little bit sooner, maybe a little more automatic
And at least get information right doesn't mean you can change it
Doesn't mean you can actually do anything about the earthquake that's coming. You can't stop it
But it maybe you can identify things right you can see the patterns you can see where the movement you can you know
There's different things. That's kind of fun to think about a little bit. So when you,
have you thought about, because you are by the ocean, and I've talked to people about this before,
you know, taking the glasses and things underwater, right? And using them down there,
right? You know, being able to dive, we just talked about
the flowers and stuff like that, you know, being able to walk, you know, and notice that, hey,
this thing's there. But going into the water, there's so much water life that I don't actually
know. Like, in fact, most of the things that are in the water, I know what coral is, or I think I
do. I have an idea. I know it's a rock type. It's a living rock type thing. Maybe. See, I probably already proved I don't. But there's this thing down there and there's so many different types. Right. And to be able to take those glasses down there, that would be kind of every kind of fun.
jacku still underwater right and his actual water goggles are ar right which are literally letting
you know all the different coral species that we have that are actually protecting and filtering
they are the ocean's natural filters and they're dying because of the heat of the water um it's the
water's too hot you know and it's and it's being hot, you know, and it's, and it's being destroyed.
Um, but that's actually a great idea.
Having the underwater swimming goggles are actually reporting.
Um, you know, I'm, I'm, I'm one person that I love.
Uh, I really enjoy uploading images to Google and letting it tell me what it is.
Stuff that I, you know, sometimes there's autographs on stuff that I'm like, Oh,
whose autograph is this? Or like, you know, like a memorabilia or just a
certain like really a strange baseball cap that it's like Japanese.
It's like, Oh, what does this say? You know? So that,
that process took years of people uploading stuff in order for,
you know, uh, Google's AI to recognize now
all the different stuff, right? So I think, again, these lenses are going to afford us that,
where it's like, as we're looking at stuff, it's going to already say it. It's like that
calculator, you know, 9,000 times, whatever, 4,000, whatever. It's just that calculator you know 9 000 times whatever 4 000 whatever it's just waiting for you
to hit the equal sign right so that's what it's going to be as well it's it's going to be reporting
if we want it to report you know i don't know what you think about that yep i'm with it i'm with it
oh interesting so even even so that now we're see then we can get into the whole safety side
of things.
Now it's like how much of this stuff is being reported back right to different things.
You know, because there's that we want the information given back.
OK, so when I am deep sea diving, I do want things.
And it's just so this is going to be and we talked about this before it's it's it's a it's a never-ending conversation right especially
as it gets closer to uh because it hasn't become a real political conversation yet has it like i
mean i guess it's kind of been out there but there's no laws really on ai collecting data
you know video stuff inside you know once you say you know you sign your rights
you say oh yeah i'll use your app or whatever that's the that is the law at that point you
know whatever you agree to and so people are just signing their stuff and just grabbing you know
buying shirts from a store we're on the on the store receipt it says hey by the way we are going
to track our product right and so there is an n NFC chip in there and now they are tracking you into where they can.
But you want it.
You want that system
because now your bodysuit while you're swimming,
maybe, right?
It's connected to your glasses.
And so all that can get tracked.
Let's say you get lost in the water,
you get caught up under a current.
Now you can be found.
I don't know.
There's so many different ways
that this could be good and bad,
but I'm here for all of it.
Or letting you know that there's sharks around, right know that starts around right that kind of stuff they have
these little kind of like uh pulse these little bracelets that that supposedly um surfers can wear
on your ankles and on your wrists and they they give out a little pulse a little weird weird uh electrical sensor that sharks don't like
so you know that kind of stuff um but yeah i i love the idea we're talking about but that has
to do with like i think then it has to do because right now we're on browsers right we're on our
browsers i mean you know it's like we're on someone else's internet on their isp they're
tracking that's how they make their money but i think as i think
when the personal nodes come in that's when it's like okay it's local so the data stays local but
is it local i mean eventually it's gonna have to come back come back out and um you know it's so
funny i'm not so much concerned on that because we're we're all the way out there. What do we don't they know?
I mean, come on. I'm an open
book. I mean, shit. I don't give shit.
I don't know.
I'm pretty excited.
I'm so excited. I'm already
comfortably numb.
I know the tech is
already out there. I don't have it.
I'm looking forward to having it. I'm looking forward to using it and to actually
reporting on it and documenting stuff.
And, you know, I remember I have friends who worked for Google and they had the Google
glasses back in the day.
It was a 2010, 2011.
And I was like, I remember putting them on.
And I was like, I remember putting them on.
I'm like, oh, this is dope.
I'm like, oh, this is dope.
And it's like society wasn't the other society.
It wasn't ready for it, right?
It wasn't ready for it.
It was very 12 Monkeys.
It was very Quantum Leap.
They weren't ready for that.
And I was like, let's go.
I was ready back then.
And it's like, okay, but now they look like Ray-Ban ready back then. And it's like, okay,
but now they look like Ray-Ban Wayfarer.
So it's like, okay, now it's not too bad.
You know what I mean?
When you figure out that something can help you,
then you're like, oh, well, maybe, you know,
he's not so weird looking.
He can change the spark plug.
He can change his spark plug.
That's where we need it. i want that now um i want a car to be able to be broken apart i want to be able to change spark plugs or teach
my son to change spark plugs in ar now uh that it's you know that's just me yeah but they're all
they're all digital they're all going to be digital soon. There won't be spark plugs. There are no spark plugs.
I mean, we're the old geezers, but still spark plugs in our cars.
But okay, but think about this.
But now you put on the glasses, right?
Which are glasses you can buy today.
And it's like, okay, go change the spark plug.
All right, now it's giving you the AR interface
as where to do it. No, that's not spark
plugs. This is spark plugs.
You have a six cylinder? You have
six spark plugs. Here's where
you're taking them out. Don't tighten them too much.
You're going to crack it.
This is where it's going to go.
Maybe this is... I would love
to do that you know
don't put don't put oil inside the windshield wiper fluid you know that kind of stuff that kind
of stuff you know it sounds so basic but you know uh it it it has to be learned it sounds you know
one plus one equals three sounds basic you you know, until you have to learn
it for the first time, I guess. Yeah. It's like, it wasn't that easy. It's like, wait a minute.
Hey, not everybody has that, that figure in their family or their friend. It's not how it used to
be. You know, it's like someone sees you broke, someone sees you broken down the side of the road
and not a lot of people are stopping, you know, of people are stopping. And for all the realistic reasons these days.
But it's like.
This is your companion.
This is your digital companion.
I see that.
I wonder what is going to be the next.
Kind of whatever.
Mainstream film.
That's just going to have this.
It doesn't have to look so 2049. It's just like. Okay this where it's like, it doesn't have to look so like 2049.
It's just like, okay, listen, there's a problem.
Takes off the glasses, puts them on.
All right, this is how you change a flat.
There's a generation that doesn't know how to do that.
There's a generation that doesn't know how to drive stick shift.
I enjoy driving stick shift.
You know what I mean?
But it's like, who's going gonna teach the person if there's nobody around
you pull out the glasses
you old geezer you old geezer i i'm with it um i'm trying to think of how
i'm gonna implement this into so using photoshop Photoshop. How many people actually know to use Photoshop?
It's funny.
Photoshop's been around for, what, 30 years?
It's one of the first programs to actually use layers and to change the whole game and stuff like that. And probably, theoretically, the first program to actually use AI.
Because you have the cloning tool and you have all this stuff.
It's like, listen, believe it or not, there are no hamsters in there.
You know, it's like maybe somebody wants to learn how to use Photoshop just for the to say they know how to use Photoshop.
Maybe they actually wanted to learn how to design, actually learn how to design.
It's like there should be, you know, it's like, well, you could just use a browser for that.
But your glasses are your browser now.
Like get get to learn how to use that space. Oh, look, look at this couple having a
picnic. Meanwhile, one person is like trying to pass the bar. The other person is like,
I don't know, in some rave in Tokyo, you know, but to the naked eye, they're just two couple,
you know, just a couple having a picnic in the park you know it's the spatial
environment where we're going the which is the metaverse the extended internet you know i mean
and that's where i mean we're right there we're at we're at the doorstep well even going back to
the digital companion thing and i know that there was the push to talk right with the digital companions as far as like the partner sexual styled companions.
Right. That was that's easy. I say that's easy.
It's an easy one for everybody to understand. Right. And make and create.
You know, I got my girlfriend, got my boyfriend, got my, you know, A.I. throuple. Right.
you know, AI thruple, right?
But having that one that's not the sexual being,
that is just that friend or that guy,
that tutor, that mentor.
And that's the one, you know, most people,
I can see that being like, you know,
that there will be, I can see a generation growing up
with that as like a standard.
Like they get it, you know,
they have this nanny type thing
that comes out with them at the, you know, at the jump at the jump boom you know they're born and they've got this ai
companion that they've never known in life any different right boom here's this one that knows
everything knows their health knows their you know what where all their medical levels are
like all the time right knows where they need to be. Oh man, you're here. Okay, you should really learn about this
before you step in type thing.
This conversation took a turn.
Look at that.
We got three new listeners
just with the sex keyword.
Yeah, I guess everything.
I'm thinking therapy, mental health, that 1-800, you know, whatever, you know, like, hey, like, you know, I think we've talked about this before about, you know, about your digital companion, you know, you're knowing what type of day you had because of what music you're listening to.
Oh, when this person's feeling down, he listens to The Cure.
Oh, when they're feeling up, they listen to like,
you know, they listen to gangster rap, you know, it's like, it's like,
what would, you know, what, you know, Oh, okay.
So the AC is going to be placed at this level when they walk in and stuff
like that. I mean, this is stuff that it's like,
it's someone has to create it, right.
Which that's where all the creatives and everyone comes in, but it's, again, it's who's going to use it?
You know, it's like someone had to do,
someone had to have this conversation in order to understand that,
like, for instance, at least in Miami perspective,
a lot of the new buildings, you know, a lot of the tech,
a lot of the caveats of the new apartments and stuff like that, it's all teched out.
Between the AC, the ceiling fans, all the tech, you know, is basically it has its own media room.
Every apartment has its own media room kind of like almost in the hallway.
And it's like everything is set through there.
And then you have your applications proprietary they
hook up to that you know who's to say how that's already set up for something right now you create
that that that interface which is that token in between all that tech and your ai campaign to
understand right that's like okay this dude is having this type of day. All right. The big
CD, it's on its way. You know, you got Sade playing inside, you know, you got, you know,
whatever, or whatever the person, maybe this person like Led Zeppelin or whatever the hell
they like, you know, and it's like, I see that digital companion has to know you, has to know
who you are. Oh, this, this dude took the long way home there's something
going on you know or it's like i don't know maybe this person just got two hundred dollars in ones
and he's heading to a specific club in a specific neighborhood i don't know no but that's you're
you're you're dead you're dead on with the real companion, right?
With that real one, that one that's like, this is the one that I want.
And you're right.
We did talk about it before where it was, where do we start setting the limits on how
much control we give it, right?
So when we know like, man, I've got this issue, just going back to the $200 going to the right
side of the neighborhoods, you know, It's like, I know I have this
thing. I don't want to do this thing anymore. And so it knows. You start pulling up. It's like,
because you already kind of set the limits. You're like, this is the idea. The concept is my goals,
personal goals. And so the AI is like, I'm going to help you achieve your personal life goals.
And to keep it real basic, you're at the store,
you go to buy the Dr. Pepper. And it's like, no, no, no, you said no more currant syrup.
And it's like, and you're like, but, but it's mine, I can do what I want. And the AI companion
is like, are you sure though? Do you, do you really, is that really, I know this, and it
starts talking to you. And I don't know, maybe it can calm
you down or maybe it just, you know, cuts you off and there's no conversation to it. But I think
with the class- So we've reached the dark side of it, the dark side of it, where your health
insurance, what your health insurance is not allowing you to buy certain right food right that that happens
today right 100 your health insurance um what's that what is it i can't think right now but
whatever it just doesn't allow you to to buy soda it doesn't allow at least not through their you
know or red meat or certain it's already telling you so it's like you know it's interesting because it's like
okay so what happens is like is it are we going to get to a point where there are going to be
certain commercials that weren't that would be cool if we can personalize our television or
whatever the television is today right it's just a panel with whatever subscriptions you want to show you exactly what
you want to see right a bespoke you know not with no but not the commercials they want you to see
but this stuff is like man i want to live this type of lifestyle so since i have to watch ads
okay because you know that's how i get my discount on my subscription i want it to be
like inside of this frame.
Like, I don't want to see anything out of these guidelines.
Imagine having a channel, right?
A channel that shows you commercials from a certain era, right?
Imagine, I mean, these kids today, if they would see the commercials, like, at least had in the 80s, they were fucking the best, like the craziest freaking toys, like the craziest toys. Right. It's like, yeah, we can make that, you know, whatever. And it's like, you know, and then I was like, well, what were the commercials in the 50s? You know, that kind of stuff. I think that with the way everyone is developing and the way everyone's building and with all of the resources that we have today, I think we're going to be able to create any of that stuff.
You know, a lot of stuff is going into kind of public domain, you know, and it's just about kind of, I don't know what's the right word, but just kind of sourcing that data and having that stuff go in where I think a lot of stuff in the future is going to be bespoke.
It's the way you want it.
There's entire communities out in the Midwest that are still in the 50s.
The way they dress, the cars they drive, the music they listen to,
you know, that's a real thing. And it's been a real thing for a rockabilly, I believe it is.
Right. And it, you know, it's okay. So maybe that's the way it is when you go,
you know, and you want to watch television, maybe you only want to see Dragnet and film noir and detective stories, you know, and that's your life,
which circling around to the VR spatial environment that you want to be in.
100%. And to bring it full circle, right the what's up wednesday right for those of you
that don't know worry about that that time but to bring that full circle we got texas hemp stock in
here and honeycomb hydro and human and hemp walk and altered alley and claude and all these people
are very active in this like real world activation stuff where they're not just talking about things, but they're actively doing things.
Altered Alley, very specifically for the past several years, you can't if you look in Arkansas, if you go to Arkansas and you look up north in Arkansas on any of the augmented reality apps period doesn't matter which one pick one doesn't matter
it's covered it's completely covered and AR stuff everywhere and
You know now we got Texas hemp stock down here who they're taking this thing that they're doing and going even bigger with it and
Mapping the whole place, you, putting markers out in augmented reality.
There's going to be the huge glass blowing.
It might be the biggest glass show.
I don't know how to explain it,
but it might be the biggest one in the country this year.
But all of these things are going to have augmented reality markers
and information, and you're going to be able to go to different areas around the spots, you know what I mean,
and engage with and activate, and there might be AI stuff. I don't really know,
but it's kind of fun watching the people do this for real, for real, because I feel like I sit up
here and I talk about stuff, and I'm like, what's up, everybody? Just running my mouth on what's happening.
And then there's people that are active in it doing the things, right?
So I had to just like drop that in there, okay?
That there's people doing stuff and it's wonderful.
So I said, what's up, Claude?
I see you in here.
People that do things.
We've got, man, so in the AI. So this dude's been making ai images and stuff like that for quite a while but if you go and follow their page while we're on this topic
they they get their prompt they get some pretty cool stuff out of their prompts they were getting
some pretty realistic things out of like claude and and some of these image creators way before uh like when will smith's spaghetti was still a
little bit more claw down here had some stuff coming out where it's like wow that looks like
like that's like a real person there that will smith is eating that spaghetti uh so go ahead
give them a follow if you want to know more about the ai and luxury and hospitality industries
they've got a lot in there that they can get.
That's it.
That's it.
That's my what's up Wednesday, 46 minute shameless shield to the group about who's doing what,
where tech on this side of the hardware.
I know that was like, I'm going to do some hard shifts here today because what's up and
I don't care. It's a what's up Wednesday and we don't have real things to say outside just what
everybody's already doing anyways oh wait i just noticed that what's up wednesdays i kind of like
that i like i i i think this is a kind of uh i feel like it it expresses what's really happening
here better than the winning Wednesdays, right?
Winning Wednesdays, it was like, oh, there's people like, oh, we're going to win stuff.
And then, but this, realistically, we just, it's Wednesday, it's midweek.
We hang out here for a little while and then everybody goes back to doing whatever they were doing, you know?
And that's kind of what Wednesdays are, right?
We come together, share a little bit about what's happening, who's doing we're daydream usually we daydream a lot uh the my favorite part about the daydreams
though is I was daydreaming in some spaces some years ago with people like Will Burns uh there's
this guy named Simon but it's Simon with a number number one. You got Altered's been working really close
to this guy and AI named Zen, right? And we would just, it was just a bunch, it was only like maybe
five, six people max inside the rooms because a lot of what we talked about was so crazy and just
like far out there that it just sounded gibberish, you know, maybe. But it was, wow, the things you get out of that stuff, it's crazy, right?
Because see, go ahead.
No, I was going to say, what was the hard turn you wanted to do?
Because I know I sidetracked you.
No, that's it.
I already shifted.
Okay, okay.
But it sounded like there was a form factor question or something you're going to present nope nope just keeping the attention alive the whole time
i was talking now everybody's just still stuck like wait a minute so what's going on well let
me tell you exactly no it's but we just daydream here that's what the what's up wednesday spots are
uh where we you can't come up you got
a crazy thought you got a crazy idea bring it up uh there's a lot of people out here that do have
spots if you want if you're a creator you want something to show we can do that too right you
if you and but it's just a hangout spot okay most of what goes on on wednesdays are going to be
coming up i see metamike just came into the room.
Perfect time because I was just about to talk about you.
But there's on Wednesday afternoons inside of Spatial.
It's almost like Spatial took over Wednesdays.
If anybody remembers, we were talking about the TV, right?
You know, going back to the old school commercials and stuff.
But like you had like set time slots.
Primetime TV was a thing.
And whereas now, you know, it's not so much a thing
just everything's we watch but prime time tv and so those prime times really which is the
wednesdays man spatial kind of took those over the community space well a long time ago but you've got
uh stilo's world every wednesday every afternoon same time same place it's as religious as a what's up wednesday space
and then every wednesday night now metamite's inside the spot more often like they might have
been there right now uh but that same guy that built the trash can thing that we were all drooling
over at the beginning of this spot with tech mental's got some art in okay apparently tech
mental didn't do any of it and And I've given them all this credit,
but it's really Metamite.
So Metamite did though.
Metamite did actually do that stuff.
And you can learn from the man themselves.
You can get hands on.
They're so unselfish about it.
You can go and hang out and just watch them work and just steal all of the process, right?
Because to be very real, it's not like Meta Mike has a secret process that nobody else can use.
And it's just so secret sauce, right?
In fact, it's so secret sauce that he'll do it live and if you don't want to do
it on your own you can talk to them and they'll support you kind of like they do
with tech middle here where if you want a world you want something made you want
all this stuff they can do that for you as well okay altered alley down there
same kind of thing you got Zen space okay you go in there you want to learn
more you want to know more?
You want to get hands-on with some stuff?
Just same kind of way.
So that's what's up on Wednesdays, right?
Every Wednesday, there's these people doing these things, and it's real.
Now, the Metaverse Fashion Week is also this week, if I understand correctly.
There's quite a few of our friends out
there that have designs and are doing the thing we'll see you know stay up if you're into what's
up to date the nice thing about the staying up to date with the metaverse fashion is it also helps
you stay up to date with uh not just like oh this is what people are wearing no which is cool okay but also how to stay
up to date with like file sizes okay what different types of materials and you know or do what where
right what is and and there's there's different layers to it if you want to get super nerdy with
it you can say okay like these are the types of this one. I like that one.
Why'd you like that one?
It didn't even look good.
No, but it was super lightweight.
And everybody that was in the room didn't glitch when they had it on versus this other one.
You know, yeah, it looks great, but it's, it was super glitchy because it was so heavy. Right.
So there's these different types of things, or maybe it wasn't heavy.
It just had this or it didn't have that.
So there's different things you can look at when it comes to the metaverse fashion week that I like to look at on on some technical sides of things on like how do outfits not just how did they look or how did they fit?
Because sometimes the fit may be to sell a real world item.
Right. And sometimes the fit may be to to sell a game or whatever it is.
Right. Whatever the purpose is. But looking at it from those aspects. if it may be to sell a game or whatever it is, right?
Whatever the purpose is, but looking at it from those aspects.
So it's more than just fashion.
There's a lot to it.
I would stay up to date with it, get to see who's doing what, where, and when, and all
those things, right?
If anybody wants to come up and share about what they've got going on, they want to talk
about how people can get involved in their own projects or their their you know their processes and things by all means grab a mic you got a couple
minutes before we close this down because i'm going to get on to my what's up wednesday uh
one dar boy right one dar boy the wonder boy 2025 on youtube go and check it out they did this zoo
thing they got this one dollar zoo out there and
a park their local park I'm really proud personally because it's my son and it was fun to watch him
use the AI to make the animals and then put them out in augmented reality on different platforms
he used spheroid universe and over the reality because they don't they all do different things
right and and so it's a lot
of fun so he's got this little mini zoo at the park that he made he's real proud of it i'm super
excited you can check it out it's on over the reality if you go onto the app just check go to
the ben gill park in terrell texas it's just a couple of different experiences it's not it's not
huge it's just but it's just getting started and and again personally

you can check that out they posted their video this morning that's out there wonder boy 2025
we want to see more and one of the things he says in the video it's very specific is you can do it too and we would like to see more people doing these things and if you want to put stuff
out right next to us right we'll just reach out we would love to share api keys so you can publish
stuff with us because we want to see it too so that said have a one darful wednesday i see tech
down there just posted up some stuff about the Android XR.
That's what I'm talking about because it's brand stinking new news, okay?
Go and check it out.
It's very interesting.
Everybody thought Google was out.
They thought they were doing some completely different stuff.
Turns out they were playing us all, and they've got glasses.
turns out they were playing us all and they've got glasses they've got goggles they've got geospatial
They've got goggles.
new data stuff on how all that stuff is going to be created and the rules on all that so
go check it out this has been a wonderful what's up wednesday tech thanks for grabbing the mic
daydreaming talking about stuff that's not here but could be here and will be here soon.
That's it.
Y'all have a great rest of your Wednesday.
We're out.
