 Okay, it's on live on the air let me double check here with my if anyone notices a skull with two stores underneath it That's my other me and that's just a way. I'm checking to see The feeds working and that I can record stuff We've been hanged Hello me it's me again Mm-hmm good I got all my politics stuff uploaded we are ready to roll Is this the right Do you see that yes, I should also put in here somewhere because the headlines were so earning centric That we do have all the detailed earnings On on the headline show Yes Kind of stayed I kind of stayed weighed from the straight money stuff because I Wasn't sure how interesting that would be plus you covered in the headlines Yeah, I mean I think we should keep in mind that this is I mean that they are two separate shows, right? Yes But but I think it's like look Record news for Samsung good news for Facebook mixed to good news for Twitter and read all about it on The headline show The headline I read this morning was that Jeff Bezos has knocked gates off as the world's richest man I Believe that is true as well, you know that that stuff kind of always winds up fluctuating on on stuff That is always less interesting than than the headline right but That's certainly true. I mean look for somebody that got I think Fairly criticized initially for running a company that wasn't taking enough profit Jeff Bezos sure one in the long run, huh? He's doing just fine now And I think there's plenty more plenty more room room to go Those guns of his geez Louise Yeah, what's the when did he start that was that's not a recent thing is it? well, you know the the I Think I forget whether or not this came from somewhere. We just made it up on the weird things podcast, but He like Elon Musk are very space focused So let's say you were Jeff Bezos and you were very very gold driven And you wanted to go to space you would probably start around now Starting to get into the kind of shape that you would need to do to go to space You need guns like these guns like this. All right, and I'm recording everything, right? Yeah, you're gonna record where you're gonna record the show So right before you start the Patreon auto you hit record and then you end it after But brushwood goes Got you I'm I'm doing the whole pre and post show records sweet So let me hide you two have a great show. I will be throwing up screens. So don't be freaked out Any questions No, I think we got this one cool. All right Well, hello chat. How are y'all doing? Where's my news band blazer we're not got we didn't listen too busy today too busy for the blazer also kind of too hot So we are at the middle of the hour We will begin Actually here up Paul. Can you just give me a level real quick? Yeah. Yeah, here. I am. This is me Check check one two three perfect perfect perfect. Everything looks fine and dandy. So Here we go What's that? You want to get back some value for the value you get a daily tech news show? No problem. Just had the daily tech news show comm slash the port to find out how it's the daily tech news show for Thursday July 27 2017 I am Justin Robert young filling in for a vacationing Tom Merritt, but joining me All from around the world We had we had to scour the globe to find a guest that could that could that could pair with me In a tomless show and so we found the man for you. He is Paul Spain. How you doing Paul? Great. Thank you Justin Now we got a lot to talk about here a huge Earnings day if you want all the details on that I would suggest you go ahead and check out our daily tech headline show The the TLDR on it record quarter for Samsung really good news for Facebook Mixed two good news for Twitter, but aside from that, let's go ahead and get into some tech news You should know And it's second earning a second quarter earnings call Facebook announced that what's app has reached a billion users per day Those users send 55 billion messages in 4.5 billion photos each day what's app status its clone snapchat stories feature also reached 250 million daily users this is up from them a year ago saying that they had 50 billion per month So that's a huge jump year on year Digital news inner sorry go ahead Paul. Yeah, it's I guess Highlights what a good app acquisition. This is in ended ended up ended up being for For Facebook. Oh Certainly so and and you know not a small part of their bottom line Digital news and entertainment site Buzzfeed is releasing a hundred and forty nine dollar hot plate dubbed the tasty one There's right the tasty one top It's described as a precision smart cooktop letting users pan pot slow cook and more featuring Bluetooth control via the tasty app The tasty one top will ship this no Vember now I wanted to highlight this story a because it's ridiculous and sometimes I love the silly and absurd but also because of how much online retail has become a huge part of Sites like Buzzfeed and the Daily Dodd and and what's left of Gawker these kind of retail Agreements are huge. I'm curious Paul Do you think that Buzzfeed can transfer into a brand that you trust for cookware? Well I'm not I'm not sure whether they can but I you know I think just the the reach that they have means that they will they will be selling these I'm sure and you know in in the old days it used to be the the infomercials that would that would be selling products and Yeah, they've got they've got room to sort of create the the next generation of infomercials to Sell and promote these so I wouldn't wouldn't be surprised if it pans out Okay for them on this one. It's a pretty expensive product for what it is though hands out. I see what you did there Now here we have some more top stories CNBC has revealed Amazon is starting a secret team dedicated to health care dubbed 1492 in reference to when Columbus sailed the ocean blue and landed in the Americas the team will be headquartered in Seattle focusing and We'll cover both hardware and software Solutions to the project among the opportunities being looked at are pushing and pulling data away from legacy data systems a Platform for telemedicine and virtual consultations and health applications for existing Amazon hardware like the echo and dash wand We'll be going deeper into this in our discussion. So we'll kind of keep it quick here Paul Amazon getting into health care just a one sentence thought before we do a deep dive later in the show Smart lines up with what they're doing with the rest of their AI ambitions and You know tying in with echo and so on. Yeah, I think there's some exciting possibilities for this one Well, let's get into the rest of the stories the US house lawmakers and the house energy and commerce committee passed and sent a bill that would allow companies to more easily test and Deploy self-driving cars on US roads for a vote in the full chamber safely ensuring lives future deployment and research in vehicle evolution act Which roughly abbreviates to self-drive act She's Louise will allow overtime up to as many as a hundred thousand highly autonomous test vehicles on the road and exchange For the Department of Transportation to waive some federal safety requirements like steering wheels Companies will need to prove that their self-driving technology is as safe as traditional people driven cars No date has been scheduled for the vote Paul You're actually a later today on New Zealand time. I'm gonna go have a discussion About self-driving cars with somebody in your government, right? Yeah, I've got Simon Bridges who's the the Minister of Transportation here in New Zealand come coming in for a podcast. So This is an area I'm really interested in and you know, I think anything that governments can can do to facilitate moving Moving things for Ford in terms of autonomous vehicles is good I think there's there's still a lot of concern out there from the general public that don't Really believe that the technology is there yet But certainly my my confidence from what we've seen so far suggests that Governments should be supporting the stuff getting vehicles out onto the road and in this case with the the self-drive act It it looks as though there is certainly some onus on the automakers to be Proving that their vehicles are gonna be at least as safe as as human driven ones Which you know shouldn't be too hard to do when you're talking about a machine That's got eyes on the back of its head and lots of beating power Absolutely, you know when when I look at a story like this. It's obviously the Confluence of a couple different things the auto lobby in America is tremendously powerful There's a reason why the automotive industry has been bailed out several times before by the government and several auto companies have been bailed out so The fact that this is where the technology is going the question now becomes if you are a governmental representative Is whether or not you impede it and and how long you impede it for the sake that you don't want to have blood on your hands If something goes horrifyingly arrived the fact that this is happening now is very very important that it's a Federal act because it also just opens up the places where these kinds of cars can be tested on the state level where we've seen a Lot of different varying options from you know, listen, but let's all remember it was it was I think last summer when Uber had to load up all of their cars from San Francisco and truck them on down to Arizona to continue their testing so Obviously incremental steps here, but I think both here and in New Zealand It's just a matter of time before before these things continue to roll out. I Agree and and the changes that they're going to you know bring to us I think you know still we're gonna we're struggling to understand exactly What those things are what's going to be the impact when we get to a point where a hundred percent of the vehicles are Autonomous does that mean we can double the speed limit triple it? What are all those possibilities? I'm not sure but I think The the changes are certainly exciting We have a new update to the streaming wars at the new music seminar conference in New York YouTube's global head of music Lear Cohen stated that Google Play music will be merged with YouTube red to create a new streaming service Cohen added that he wants more direct collaboration with music labels and rights holders The move was made to help educate consumers and bring in new subscribers Google said it will only notify users here. Sorry will notify users before any changes happen now here in America and I don't know how much of this is is analogous to what's happening over there in New Zealand Paul The the big war to see who will own the future of music distribution has largely been fought between the industry leader Spotify Which has many many more users, but has a free tier which is very controversial Apple music which has become a very powerful player and now Google which Certainly has plenty of sway between their ability to make deals and have YouTube red in their pocket And yet has never been able to offer a very clear and concise proposition to their customers Does something like so this is this seems to be that they are following very much in the model of Apple music They have liar Cohen who was somebody that was much like His name is escaping me, but he used to be interscope records Jimmy Iveen at Apple is a former music Executive that now wants to seemingly follow the same playbook. Let's get exclusives Let's make sure that we make a big deal that you're only able to listen to this here But also have the largest catalog and a robust technological infrastructure Do you think that that this seems that following the Apple path and maybe not Doubling down on the Spotify path since you know YouTube is in Google is really really great at selling advertising is the right path I'm not sure I think it's time will tell on this, but I think there is some benefit from a simplicity You know perspective of of bringing bringing things together in this way You know a single subscription that gets you access to As much as possible seems to be smart. I'm an Amazon prime subscriber But that's good You know getting access to the music and videos and and so on that comes under under that subscription Although I maybe Don't leverage those as those things as much as I could within the subscription Just having it there and it being simple is is great and from a you know a user perspective. I you know, I like it So that that is actually fascinating I'm really glad you brought that up because that's kind of off the board here right now They're they're looking to do like I said something that is fairly similar to Apple music by all available evidence However, you're right Google does a million different things and Amazon does a million different things and Amazon doesn't care if you understand Exactly everything that your prime Does they are fine with you only knowing 10% off the top of your head of what kind of value you get out of that $99 a month Whereas as long as it's the 10% that you care about that keeps you paying for it Who cares just keep stapling things to it people that love today Shipping for prime probably don't know that you can also get a free twitch subscription And similarly the kid that gets the free twitch subscription doesn't care that the mom and dad can get mulch on 48 hours notice similarly here I wonder what Google could all put together that would make a Absolute no doubt about it. I just got to pay X amount of money into this sort of bundle Yeah, I think there's some there's some future there But there's probably a bit more work for them to do and in developing it But they seem to be picking up a lot of users on on YouTube read already I don't know the stats, but it does seem to be pretty popular Although now that I think about a little bit more Amazon does make you pay extra for their music streaming service. That is not just totally included with prime. So It was tied in there. I think you get limited. I'm members stream for free Well, well for whatever reason then my my my my echo doesn't play me full songs Maybe maybe I just got to figure that out. Everybody just email me and tell me what an idiot I haven't yet. That is your my echo. Yeah. All right. We'll figure it out How about this one sling TV will host its first pay-per-view event Saturday the feature will be the UFC 214 Cormier versus Jones to according to sling TV's Ankit Bishoy Bishnoy. Oh geez the company is planning on future pay-per-view events alluding to other fight matches Paul this is a bit of a middle area for a lot of these companies that the trend seems to have been and UFC certainly has their own independent fight pass feature But they have stuck with traditional pay-per-view as it still does bring in a consistent revenue Although declining Whereas companies like the WWE and certain other sports leagues have decided to totally unbundle and just sell a lot of their premium Sorry, their premium content directly to their fans Do you think that this is something that the Chord cutters pay-per-view is this a way stop along to a different future or is there something comforting to yeah I maybe I just want this fight I don't want to Subscribe and unsubscribe from a service every time I want to see something that that might interest me as a casual fan Well, it might Increase the the reach possibly although, you know, I'm not sure that that sling TV is as big enough to make a huge Difference there, but I still think that there is there's a fair bit to of Working out to do of of how sport should be Distributed on demand You know on a on a global basis here in New Zealand. We have we have one predominantly satellite TV based provider of Who really has a stranglehold on most of the sport and you know, it's fair to say that that that most people Looking forward to that situation Changing and for these things to develop a little bit more. Yeah, I think you're going forward We will see multiple choices for people in terms of how they get access to Content and seeing things bundled together or accessible through you know a channel like Sling TV makes some make some sense. I quite like The way Amazon Prime allow you to add, you know bits and pieces on to your base Subscription we seem to be seeing seeing a bit of a bit of that That makes quite a bit that approach makes quite a bit of sense to me Although Amazon haven't been playing in the in the area of sport yet And you know, it's I guess youtuber in a in a similar sort of base, you know approach Yeah, and that that you know, why they haven't gone near near any add-on services They're you know, they just a world unto themselves that at this stage now you said multiple and I think that that's an interesting idea But it might run a little bit against you know against across purposes because for Something like like I think the WWE's model what they want is like Netflix or HBO for you to come on during the busy season They want they want HBO wants you to to sub when Game of Thrones is on and then they want to spend that entire You know eight to twelve weeks that Game of Thrones is on Selling you on all the other cool stuff that you can get in the hopes that they can keep you around longer If you are just able to buy paper views Then you are not getting into their ecosystem and a substantial amount of that value IE you for getting to cancel is totally lost to them. So I think this is It's interesting because for me, this is a move by UFC that says I Desperately want to continue pay-per-view rates from totally collapsing So let's try a couple other things that get us pay-per-view revenue But at a certain point if it continues to fall We just got to jump whole hog into selling this stuff directly to our fans at whatever price we need One more clarification. What I was referring to is Prime music unlimited, which is an add-on That gives you unlimited plays and skips on Amazon Prime music That is at least in the United States $7.99 a month for Prime members and non Prime members get it for 999 a month, which is very very competitive and 799 is cheaper than most of the other services competitively AMD's budget Ryzen 3 processors ship today the 3.1 gig a four core four thread Ryzen 3 1200 will sell for a hundred nine dollars and the 3.5 gig Ryzen 3 1300x will go for a hundred and twenty nine AMD executives said they've been Downbending or turning off cores of Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7 chips to create the line. However, the chips will Sell for multiplier unlocked for overclocking Aim squarely at the Intel cores i3 line and AMD's sorry Intel cores i3 line AMD's promises superior performance and both chips will likely Be VR ready This looks cool So but the price on VR Potentially coming down is this that the the beginning chills of the winds of winter that signify that VR is here I'm not sure about that, but you know, it certainly helps make it it makes it more accessible and What I what I hope we will see is we'll just start seeing a lot more AMD processors available in computers in the in the long term and you know I hope that starts moving pretty pretty quickly just looking at all that the stats and the numbers around these Ryzen 3 Processors, you know, they look really fast good value and You know, they they look to compete really well against Against, you know, the i3 Chips from from Intel. So, yeah, this this hopefully stirs things up a little bit And we see a little bit more from AMD who's you know processes We haven't really seen other than very budget systems Or you know custom build sort of you know gaming machines and so on for for so long now It's been it's been very quiet Intel. I've had far too much talking. I think I was gonna add one thing on what Paul just said Mm-hmm is that this essentially means that AMD is back as a Significant player in the desktop processor market now. You might not think it's a big deal but I mean this is lighting another fire under Intel's collective corporate butt and That could either mean lower prices on a set of family of chips that Intel is out But it also means that there will be That competition will be coming from two directions for Intel from the x86 from AMD, but also from the ARM Series of processors that's licensed out by you know, Samsung Qualcomm and everyone's grandmother So it is it is a significant pressure on Intel and it can't be understated that AMD Even three or four years ago people were saying like do they even have a place in the market anymore? I mean other than just creating low-cost chips and you know, Ryzen is proving to be a Much bigger deal than people gave them credit for three years ago Well said I'll tell you what if you want other stuff that is well said You can go ahead and check out the Daily Tech headlines every day in about five minutes Just subscribe to at Daily Tech headlines Com and again if you are here for the financial news, that's where you're gonna find it today Go ahead and check it out in today's edition of Daily Tech headlines However, let's get into our main event. That is that Amazon According to CNBC is working on a secret health Skunkworks called 1492 working on medical records virtual doctor visits and more again they CNBC also reported back in May that Amazon is looking into moving into pharmaceutical sales I wanted to talk about this Paul because Amazon is obviously a very buzzy company right now as we pointed out in the pre-show Jeff Bezos Now into the the dance with Bill Gates on who will be the richest man in you know Seattle in the Seattle metro area slash the world however Healthcare is also something that is very much on people's mind as it is debated in the United States government We won't get into the latter, but let's get into how the former can affect the latter is Their room for Amazon to move into this space and bring value to not only customers in America But customers all over the world of at least part of this is for virtual doctors visits for example I think the the potential of this is Absolutely incredible in terms of the impact on society the access to health care on a global basis You look at I guess, you know the the big challenges in the majority world of the developing world and that you know There are so many health related the health related challenges, you know, I think this could reach in there obviously Within the Western world There's still room for improvement. I think you know looking at All sorts of aspects of how healthy we are today sitting in front of screens and so on So, you know if we we can move forward with bringing AI into the space Being more I think what we what we will see is this sort of more continuous You know connection with health care at the moment, you know I think traditionally we'll go off to our our primary doctor on on often a pretty sporadic Basis, but you know when health care can be Connected with us on a continual basis, then you know, I think that's something that could really You know tip the balance and in terms of starting to improve our Our you know our situations around the world You know from a health perspective and the possibilities with with AI and varying senses and so on I think are really huge and obviously Amazon's very capable in that artificial intelligence space and they've got you know I have an increasing number of of gadgets that are That's the Let's also point out here that Health care is a three trillion dollar industry. This is not I mean Amazon is certainly might have the best intentions Obviously to make the world healthier and happier, but this is a gigantic place for them to move into they have made rumblings in the past Because they do sell medical equipment that a lot of these boutique companies are boutique quote-unquote. They make tons of money But smaller less connected companies than Amazon who sell Specialized medical technology they're waiting for the the next shoe to drop and Amazon to just eat them all whole Overnight if they move into pharmaceutical sales, that's yet another thing. However, what I find very very interesting about this is more of a social question We have often culturally felt very very Private about how we share our medical history it creeps us out when we find out that searching around via You know that women who are you know in long-term relationships all of a sudden start getting ads for diapers before they find out They're pregnant and stuff like that. There's these these weird areas that we have That we have kind of bugaboos about but what Amazon would want to do here is to Really plug you further into the ecosystem and if that's the case do we trust Amazon as a company? specifically to hold that data because the Reputation that certain companies have had I think that it would be a different story of Facebook wanted to do it for example Or if Google wanted to do it for example does Amazon have our trust I Wouldn't trust anybody entirely. I you know, I think As we start moving into this you have to weigh up the the pros and cons. What are the benefits if you? Start interacting with a system and you allow it to have your health care records You have to accept that there is some risk that you are going to lose control of this information That that's just a trade-off and certainly we would We would hope that wouldn't happen But I'm sure there will be you know data spillages and hacks and and other things going on at some point in terms of Amazon Sure, I mean they're obviously gonna be looking to see how they can Utilize this for further Monetization and if they're in the pharmaceuticals business then quite naturally they're going to going to want to Take take advantage of that whether they will hold out data secure Well, I guess maybe maybe don't think about it as secure, right? Let's assume it's secure but I Would never we are comfortable with them having or or let me put it this way Are we more comfortable or less comfortable with Amazon having that data secured in whatever impersonal AWS server? It might be floating around in Instead of maybe a doctor that you a new doctor that you get when you move into a new town How much more do you trust Amazon than you do just whoever I get assigned to when I go into? You know when I start searching on Yelp for a primary care physician Well, I wouldn't have a lot of a lot of confidence in your primary care provider because you know often they're very small They're there, you know capabilities in terms of how they look after their data can be can be fairly poor And in theory Amazon should be you know much more capable at actually keeping this information secure, but Yeah, I guess different individuals are gonna have a different perspective on this but we you know when when I Look at the technology that I that I often see Doctors utilizing and you know, sometimes they're quite small practices I don't have a lot of confidence in their cyber security. So, you know really anything that That they hold at some point could Yeah, could could be leaked or or or just lost Well, we will have to see where this goes again This is all just reported by CNBC and and there are probably ongoing right now at every major tech company a billion different fun little skunkworks that are in different stages of progression, but Certainly something to keep your eye on as Amazon continues to spread far and wide Thank you to everybody who participates in our subreddit by the way submit stories and vote on them at dailytechnewshow.reddit.com and Facebook.com slash Daily tech news show you can of course send messages to feedback at dailytechnewshow.com And here's one of them Nick sent us this email about facial recognition in airports I was listening to a story about facial recognition being used in airports on DTNS today a few years ago I was flying flying from Wellington to Australia. Hey, look at that New Zealand And I was able to get their security by swiping my passport through a machine and standing a set distance away from the camera until it gave Me the all-clear from my understanding It was using some sort of facial recognition to match me to my passport and let me through security It worked perfectly and I was shocked at how easy it was to do you were you were nodding In in recognition here Paul. Have you used one of these machines before? Yeah, so I mean we have it's similar entering into the US as well for a New Zealand citizen where you've got the You know the biometrics that are used there. It takes, you know, it takes your photo. I think coming into the US New Zealand Australia have that have that interaction So we used to go through a manual passport check in New Zealand and in Australia those bits have been bypassed When I come into the US now, yes, I go through that my passport gets scanned I go through those steps, but then you do still You know go to the usual desk. It just speeds up the process a little bit But yeah, and some some areas with we've bypassed that Passport check where you've got somebody there who's actually You know slapping a stamp on your passport and so on and You know, I can understand why that why that Maybe is still still appropriate and some some places But I haven't seen anywhere who anywhere where they automatically stamp your stamp your passport yet with the machine And really I guess it's questionable whether you need a rubber stamp or not. It's a bit old school Yeah, I mean for the government's usage It doesn't really matter what the ink on your particular book is aside from, you know Just trying to be a a fun world traveler These are definitely devices that I have used if you have global entry here in America These are the devices it sounds like the exact same experience as you would have coming coming into America Where you can skip your customs lines and everything by just going through one of these kiosks It is scary fast facial recognition I can tell you that because I think the two or three times that I've used it I haven't even gotten my hat off by the time that they take the picture and they've already okayed me to to go through So there's enough information coming through that they can match it with with whatever they need to and you can go Forward so great email.

Either are you guys going to podcast movement that you're sort of event or not? um To be honest, that's the first time I've heard of it I have I have heard of it. It just was always kind of in places that I It was not a con that that I uh Have I've made a priority and it's it's it's always been fairly far away, but Say what uh, if it weren't for the fact that I've uh, I've been in a in a coma running this kickstarter for uh For for the past, you know forever Uh, I would probably uh, I'd really have thought about it more But if it's in anheim again, I would definitely think about going to it because it seems like something that I would really enjoy Hmm. Yeah, it's it's usually yeah, usually quite Uh, quite a good event if that's uh, you know if podcast sort of I guess it's the business side of podcasting is As a big part of it. I'm doing a little a little ignite talk about the future of podcasting and where I see ai Uh, you know messing with the future of podcasting and how things are going to change so It's that'll be my little piece All right, well, I'll leave you guys to um to to finish Yeah, thanks again. That was fun. See you later. Thank you. Bye. Go cheers Uh, I do want to point out for the post-show listeners uh that uh, uh, uh, I I do currently get my health care from amazon But it is because my wife works at twitch as was pointed out to me in the chat So so a full disclosure Amazon, I guess I don't get it from them. They pay for my health care. Yeah, they they they give your wife, uh benefits Yes, although I'm wondering I mean health care is extremely complicated market to be in. Yes, um Can you can you imagine if there was an amazon hmo? See I think what they want to do is dismantle that I think I think what what they want to do is basically Create a level of care That makes all but the most catastrophic coverage Unnecessary right well, I mean like I mean I mean hmo has a very negative connotation But if you if you strip away if you strip away the innuendo and what it is. It's really just uh, uh Managing cost which amazon I think Might be in the the market to do this or see if they benefit think about it Simply on the pharmaceutical side. They have enough clout to get a huge buy On most prescription medications if they choose to go that route um, they could demand A certain cost per unit and they could pass the savings on Uh to to customers, which would be great. Oh, certainly. I mean, I think yeah cost efficiency. Absolutely without a doubt Uh, especially if they're doing it globally Like say say like zanax or something. I don't know. I'm sure the thing of zanax costs But if if they're selling it see, I'm wondering if they would probably run a fall of various national laws at that point Well, okay quick titles. Um, primary physician get it primary physician Uh, uh, everyone does this every time Tom's out to show without merit cook bait 1492 shall commence The jury is out on amazon secret health project Um in the grim darkest of the music streaming future.
