And we are recording welcome to another
WFH edition of Do Not Touch on Tech,
where we covered the latest in emerging
technologies. Shall you join us? So have
you ever been scrolling through your Postmates and wondering what something
tastes like? Maybe you're looking at the
hot chicken and you're just like "Wow how
hot is that?" It wouldn't be nice if you
could just take that screen and give it
a little lick preview? So they've created a
Taste-vision screen, and what it does
is it ejects little gels that you can
lick and it'll recreate any flavor you
could ever imagine.
You can lick your screen. Yep. So did you
know that a digital dress was just sold
for $9,500? Now how do you sell a digital
dress? Can't you just copy them forever
and everyone can have their own for free?
No. With this digital dress it actually
gets recorded on the blockchain so that
it proves that you own it, and then they
turn it into a custom filter that you
can use on Instagram to show off your
cool iridescent dress, and nobody else
can use it but you. The cool thing is
that you don't have to spend a ton of
money in fabricating these real clothes
that you have to wear out into the real
world, which what is that again? AIs
are just creating all types of things
that don't exist, and now they've created
dictionary words that don't exist. So by
using a refined model of OpenA...OpenGPT-2...what...OpenAIs OpenGPT....Open
AIs OpenG....so using open AIs GPT-2
model and refining it and training it on
dictionary words, you can generate all
types of new words that don't exist. And
so what you do is you hit this site, hit
refresh, and it'll give you a whole new
word that doesn't exist with a
definition that doesn't exist either.
Like flapbox.
it's just what is a flat box? I don't
know. So Scrabble is never gonna be the same
again cuz you can generate a word to fit
in any of these Scrabble spots. If those
people don't believe you
then you just show them the definition
because it exists and it's real and boom.
Scrabble. Throw the board. I'm out. So the
islands of Faro have been in some trouble
because no one's been able to go visit
them lately because of all the virus stuff.
But they figured out a clever way around
it because they're allowing you to
remote-control people on the island with
your phone so you can be a virtual
tourist, and you see a live webcam from
somebody who's across the world in the
Faro Islands and its streaming video
right off their head, and so on this
controller you push up, they will walk
forward. You push down they'll go backwards.
You hit the jump button. Bloop. Just like
Mario, they're up in the air. Just be
nice to them. Watch out for those question blocks.
Where do you want to go to? Leave your
comment below. Toot toot.
Well was that a train or a boat? Can you take
the train to the outdoors? I don't know. So if
you're a fan of Britney Spears and Frank
Sinatra, wouldn't it be your dream to
just have them come together and do some
type of put-together-music-song? What do
they call it? Mashups? Mixups? Beatups?
Mashup. Yes, a mashup.
So OpenAI created Jukebox which has
been trained on 9,000 songs. And someone
took it and refined it to actually pull
up Britney Spears lyrics and have Frank
Sinatra singing Britney Spears songs. (Frank singing) I'm addicted to you, don't you know that you're toxic.
And I love what do, you do (end singing)
Quite a nice rendition of Toxic, if I do
say so myself. You know that I'm Toxic.
Yeah that was a good song. That's it.
I'm Britney Spears and that's it for
another edition of Do Not Touch on Tech.
Thanks for coming by and spending a few
minutes with us, and we hope to see you
next time on another edition of Do Not
Touch on Tech.
