1
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:05,280
I'm Scott.

2
00:00:05,620 --> 00:00:06,040
I'm Russell.

3
00:00:06,400 --> 00:00:06,920
And I'm Leo.

4
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:07,880
This is Spitball.

5
00:00:16,740 --> 00:00:21,500
Welcome to Spitball, where three cyber crusaders and a guest empty our heads of startup and

6
00:00:21,500 --> 00:00:24,900
tech product ideas that we have stuck up in there so you can all have them for free.

7
00:00:25,380 --> 00:00:26,800
Anything we say is yours to keep.

8
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,440
And Scott, I believe you brought our guest this week.

9
00:00:30,020 --> 00:00:30,640
- I did.

10
00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:32,160
I am very excited to

11
00:00:32,160 --> 00:00:33,040
introduce Della.

12
00:00:33,820 --> 00:00:35,700
So Della, we've worked with before.

13
00:00:35,820 --> 00:00:38,980
She's an entrepreneur and plant genetics enthusiast.

14
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:41,200
She's founded the company Rebel Cultures

15
00:00:41,500 --> 00:00:44,160
where her team is building the Plant Replicator.

16
00:00:44,570 --> 00:00:47,420
It's a device that lets you clone clean, healthy plants

17
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,020
just outside of the traditional lab.

18
00:00:49,680 --> 00:00:51,760
Della has been through every part of the startup world

19
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:53,220
from the napkin sketches all the way

20
00:00:53,220 --> 00:00:56,180
through securing funding for her ever growing company.

21
00:00:56,580 --> 00:00:57,660
So welcome, Della.

22
00:00:58,080 --> 00:00:58,340
Welcome.

23
00:00:58,820 --> 00:00:59,200
Thank you.

24
00:00:59,700 --> 00:01:00,360
Awesome to be here.

25
00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:02,160
This is going to be so fun.

26
00:01:02,540 --> 00:01:05,180
And this week, as we are doing pre-show warm-ups,

27
00:01:05,239 --> 00:01:07,080
you mentioned that you have four ideas,

28
00:01:07,140 --> 00:01:09,740
I think you said, from this morning to now, which rules.

29
00:01:09,980 --> 00:01:10,280
She was

30
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:10,840
built for this.

31
00:01:11,100 --> 00:01:13,100
Yeah, it's really four and a half.

32
00:01:13,380 --> 00:01:13,820
One's

33
00:01:13,820 --> 00:01:14,500
really,

34
00:01:14,500 --> 00:01:15,660
really out there.

35
00:01:16,140 --> 00:01:16,980
That's so great.

36
00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,560
So why not kick off this week with a game of intramurals,

37
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:21,860
where we throw out our half ideas

38
00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:23,680
that we don't feel like deserve a full pitch,

39
00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:25,459
but maybe have a little bit of legs

40
00:01:25,460 --> 00:01:27,500
and need a little juice to get all the way there.

41
00:01:27,660 --> 00:01:28,500
So who wants to kick us off?

42
00:01:28,780 --> 00:01:29,920
- I would love to start this one.

43
00:01:30,020 --> 00:01:30,860
- You would love to start this one.

44
00:01:30,980 --> 00:01:31,820
No, Scott, do it,

45
00:01:31,960 --> 00:01:32,240
hit us.

46
00:01:32,780 --> 00:01:33,100
- Awesome.

47
00:01:33,780 --> 00:01:35,280
This definitely can't be a full idea,

48
00:01:35,380 --> 00:01:36,600
but I can't stop thinking about it.

49
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:39,400
I recently got back from a work event

50
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:42,260
where something cool happened at work

51
00:01:42,320 --> 00:01:44,560
and it was a whole, the entire company's one room

52
00:01:44,620 --> 00:01:46,140
and everyone started clapping and it was great.

53
00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:47,980
And then the founder went up there and he's like,

54
00:01:48,460 --> 00:01:49,340
"Okay, that was really cool.

55
00:01:49,540 --> 00:01:51,460
"I think we can use this to make some sales.

56
00:01:51,860 --> 00:01:53,459
"So I need everyone to sit back down

57
00:01:53,460 --> 00:01:57,360
And I'm going to yell out a couple of potential customers of people that we've

58
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:01,340
been trying to entice and I want, and I'm just going to like, say welcome to the

59
00:02:01,340 --> 00:02:03,880
customer and I'm going to pan the camera and everyone's going to clap for them.

60
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,300
We did this 10 times in a row for just different groups of people.

61
00:02:08,399 --> 00:02:09,720
And he changed the name every time.

62
00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:11,340
And the crowd just went nuts every time.

63
00:02:11,850 --> 00:02:16,020
So I'm like, can we do crowds as a service?

64
00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:16,920
Where like,

65
00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:20,519
we just get a bunch of people in one spot and we all have them do

66
00:02:20,820 --> 00:02:21,420
Something

67
00:02:21,420 --> 00:02:26,280
but we like speed round it and we work out a logistics and have it all planned out for one day

68
00:02:27,020 --> 00:02:28,660
And I can't get further than that,

69
00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,480
but that's my birthday cameos or something

70
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:32,340
Exactly. You

71
00:02:32,340 --> 00:02:36,000
have a huge crowd you go through a million birthdays and everyone chance that name for

72
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:36,860
like five seconds

73
00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:38,020
And then you move on to the next one

74
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:39,760
That's great.

75
00:02:39,900 --> 00:02:44,100
I just want my LinkedIn profile to be updated to me looking like I'm speaking to a crowd

76
00:02:47,299 --> 00:02:48,180
Talk pose.

77
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:50,800
Yes

78
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:52,520
Boom, send it.

79
00:02:52,780 --> 00:02:53,400
I'd pay for that.

80
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:56,380
- And you can get it like you have the key chains

81
00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,300
at the little like gift shops with all the names on it,

82
00:03:00,580 --> 00:03:00,920
but you can

83
00:03:00,920 --> 00:03:01,520
just buy the

84
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:02,200
audio file

85
00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:02,780
where people are

86
00:03:02,780 --> 00:03:03,340
doing it for

87
00:03:03,340 --> 00:03:03,520
you.

88
00:03:05,060 --> 00:03:06,220
- Scott, yeah.

89
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:07,080
- Yeah, that's

90
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:08,160
my voicemail.

91
00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:09,080
- It doesn't matter what it's

92
00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:09,660
spelled like either.

93
00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:10,520
That's the best part.

94
00:03:11,020 --> 00:03:13,260
It's like the not the wrong spelling of Aiden, you know.

95
00:03:13,720 --> 00:03:15,080
- I think my phone's going off.

96
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:16,460
Scott, Scott, Scott,

97
00:03:16,660 --> 00:03:16,900
Scott.

98
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:18,360
Sorry, that's, hold

99
00:03:18,360 --> 00:03:18,820
on one second.

100
00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:21,260
- Truly 10,000 people yelling it.

101
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:23,000
(laughing)

102
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,020
I like it. - That's great.

103
00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:24,860
- I love that.

104
00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:26,260
So I've got one.

105
00:03:26,500 --> 00:03:26,900
- Yeah, hit me.

106
00:03:27,960 --> 00:03:30,420
- So when you're conceptualizing,

107
00:03:31,060 --> 00:03:32,320
signing on like a big partner,

108
00:03:32,500 --> 00:03:34,800
you don't need to do this for like a small client,

109
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:38,660
but you really want to vet how somebody is

110
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:42,100
on their worst day, not just their best day,

111
00:03:42,220 --> 00:03:45,040
if you're gonna be doing like a multi-year project with them

112
00:03:45,540 --> 00:03:47,660
that's, I was thinking about this in the business realm,

113
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:52,640
but it could be friendships, could be any sort of partnership, could be a romantic relationship.

114
00:03:53,220 --> 00:03:58,500
I think we need to have a worst day simulator where

115
00:03:58,500 --> 00:03:59,720
you get to

116
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:00,600
basically

117
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:01,580
test to

118
00:04:01,580 --> 00:04:02,040
see how

119
00:04:02,100 --> 00:04:05,760
this person reacts in the absolute worst circumstances and

120
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:06,840
then like the curtains

121
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:07,480
come up at the

122
00:04:07,500 --> 00:04:09,500
end and you're like, "Oh no, it's fine.

123
00:04:10,020 --> 00:04:12,160
This was a pre-planned like worst day simulator.

124
00:04:12,380 --> 00:04:13,500
Don't worry about it."

125
00:04:13,500 --> 00:04:13,740
We

126
00:04:13,740 --> 00:04:14,440
both get to keep

127
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:15,120
our hands clean.

128
00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:17,420
I did not pick this terrible idea.

129
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:19,340
And it's just

130
00:04:19,340 --> 00:04:20,180
fine.

131
00:04:20,380 --> 00:04:21,380
You're just like, oh, ha ha.

132
00:04:21,680 --> 00:04:23,240
So glad we made it through that together.

133
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:25,340
And then you can decide if you want

134
00:04:25,420 --> 00:04:29,540
to risk having that worst day again in real life.

135
00:04:29,980 --> 00:04:31,900
If you don't see me at my worst, you

136
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:32,800
don't deserve me at my best.

137
00:04:32,820 --> 00:04:33,580
Literally, though.

138
00:04:33,580 --> 00:04:34,200
Literally,

139
00:04:34,340 --> 00:04:34,480
though.

140
00:04:34,500 --> 00:04:35,240
You can't

141
00:04:35,240 --> 00:04:37,360
wait six months for that to happen

142
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:37,860
or whatever.

143
00:04:38,380 --> 00:04:39,720
Just throw it out there.

144
00:04:40,140 --> 00:04:42,700
Because by nature, if you're having the bad day,

145
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:46,060
That's when you don't want to like realize the person can't handle it.

146
00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:46,280
Yeah.

147
00:04:46,540 --> 00:04:46,800
Yes.

148
00:04:48,500 --> 00:04:54,040
In a past job I had, we would design a factory lines, like what each station

149
00:04:54,100 --> 00:04:55,860
is doing, what the person is doing on them.

150
00:04:56,060 --> 00:04:58,540
And we always had this one guy who would come up to us after and be like,

151
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:02,020
you are designing this for that person having the worst day ever.

152
00:05:02,180 --> 00:05:04,940
Like anyone could do it on a good day, but you got to make sure

153
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:06,300
that they can do it on a bad day.

154
00:05:06,780 --> 00:05:08,340
And I think that would be perfect for this.

155
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,800
He would, he would be over the moon for this idea.

156
00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:11,540
Yes.

157
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:13,880
I've heard that for drunkenness.

158
00:05:14,010 --> 00:05:15,300
The user is drunk.

159
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:16,180
Everything.

160
00:05:16,230 --> 00:05:17,540
They can't read anything.

161
00:05:17,790 --> 00:05:20,420
They like pictures, but yeah, I get what you're saying.

162
00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:22,160
It's like bad days.

163
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:28,940
Android has, uh, an API where you throw the monkey slamming on the keyboard

164
00:05:29,180 --> 00:05:33,760
simulator at it, where like you have your app open and you just random inputs,

165
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:36,940
backspaces, touchscreen, whatever's or whatever, and that can be simulated.

166
00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,920
Like, can my app withstand someone just like

167
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:40,780
a child doing

168
00:05:40,780 --> 00:05:41,960
nonsense to it?

169
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,840
Without it like freezing or breaking or whatever. Yeah, exactly.

170
00:05:44,940 --> 00:05:45,060
And

171
00:05:45,060 --> 00:05:47,100
so there's an API that's is user monkey.

172
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:47,760
That's awesome

173
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:51,340
It cracks me up man,

174
00:05:51,400 --> 00:05:54,180
how could you have like how could you simulate a bad day?

175
00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,040
I like for somebody just like on an app or something. You're just like

176
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,000
I don't know that it's on an app

177
00:06:01,020 --> 00:06:03,440
Have you guys seen like parks and rec?

178
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:04,120
Mm-hmm

179
00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:11,900
Okay, so it's like it's like the disaster preparedness like you open the folder and you're simulating like what what is it?

180
00:06:11,940 --> 00:06:12,700
like bird flu.

181
00:06:13,150 --> 00:06:13,540
Oh, yeah.

182
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,320
And it's just like, all right.

183
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:20,280
So it is sort of like a choose your own adventure.

184
00:06:20,370 --> 00:06:24,100
You like pull a random card and you're like, do this, do this, do this.

185
00:06:24,580 --> 00:06:29,600
And then after all of that happens, you can be like, see, the card told me to do that.

186
00:06:30,610 --> 00:06:30,820
So it

187
00:06:30,820 --> 00:06:31,620
can be very analog.

188
00:06:31,820 --> 00:06:31,940
It's

189
00:06:31,940 --> 00:06:35,040
really just a deck of cards of terrible things to do to somebody.

190
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:35,480
Yeah.

191
00:06:35,620 --> 00:06:36,520
This was all a test.

192
00:06:36,700 --> 00:06:40,200
Oh, like a board game kind of style, right?

193
00:06:40,460 --> 00:06:40,780
Right.

194
00:06:41,020 --> 00:06:43,280
Yeah, shoot right like emergency

195
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:47,280
response teams will do the you know simulations where there's a mock

196
00:06:48,280 --> 00:06:54,940
Building burning down or shooter or whatever and yeah, you I mean there's real value to red teaming that running that through

197
00:06:54,940 --> 00:06:55,400
right?

198
00:06:56,180 --> 00:06:56,580
Man,

199
00:06:56,780 --> 00:06:59,220
that's cool. That'd be a board game worst day ever

200
00:07:02,100 --> 00:07:02,620
Sold

201
00:07:03,460 --> 00:07:08,740
Yeah, but only one person can be in on it. It has to be a single blind nut,

202
00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:09,040
right?

203
00:07:09,220 --> 00:07:11,000
You're right. You're right

204
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:11,520
a test.

205
00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,360
All good relationships have the one party trying to test the other without them knowing.

206
00:07:17,220 --> 00:07:17,660
That's healthy.

207
00:07:22,600 --> 00:07:23,600
All right, Leo, what's yours?

208
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:28,420
I recently got together with some friends from high school, and this is a group that I don't see

209
00:07:28,540 --> 00:07:32,820
too often, right? And so a big part of the sitting around the campfire is reminiscing about, "Hey,

210
00:07:32,820 --> 00:07:36,740
I wonder what so-and-so's up to nowadays, and I haven't heard from them in a while," and stuff.

211
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:44,440
I want access to Ancestry.com, but for any arbitrary group of people, like you went to

212
00:07:44,640 --> 00:07:49,240
high school with this group, or you haven't heard from that acapella group you were in,

213
00:07:49,300 --> 00:07:54,900
or whatever, where you can suck in. You have their contact from 10 years ago, so I have

214
00:07:55,200 --> 00:08:00,620
what might be their phone number, plus that can be looking at LinkedIn, and it can be looking at

215
00:08:01,010 --> 00:08:05,880
if they have a Facebook or other social media, and it can be pulling in from other... So the

216
00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:08,260
The genius of Ancestry.com is as people use it,

217
00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:09,400
other people benefit, right?

218
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,300
So if you go and you list who your great-grandfather was,

219
00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,640
other people using the service might also find

220
00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,400
that that's their uncle or whatever.

221
00:08:19,060 --> 00:08:21,980
So as you are putting in the details about this

222
00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,780
into my Ancestry for Friends grinder,

223
00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:27,800
perhaps it would help like,

224
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:28,160
oh,

225
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,660
that other user knows that they got married

226
00:08:30,670 --> 00:08:31,720
and their name changed,

227
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,180
or oh, they actually live two towns away

228
00:08:34,300 --> 00:08:35,539
from where you are right now or whatever.

229
00:08:35,740 --> 00:08:37,500
We were kind of doing this by hand,

230
00:08:38,110 --> 00:08:39,500
like scrolling through Facebook or whatever.

231
00:08:39,580 --> 00:08:40,620
No, they don't have a Facebook.

232
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:41,740
Oh, well, maybe that,

233
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:43,360
oh, we did find that they have a whatever.

234
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,000
And it'd be cool if I could automate that somehow, right?

235
00:08:47,420 --> 00:08:48,360
Ancestry for friends.

236
00:08:48,620 --> 00:08:49,020
- That's cool.

237
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:52,200
Just connect to all your existing logins, you know?

238
00:08:52,220 --> 00:08:52,500
- Yeah.

239
00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:55,640
- Your phone contacts, boom, CRM.

240
00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:57,220
- Seems like an AI agent,

241
00:08:57,660 --> 00:08:59,000
something could poke around

242
00:08:59,140 --> 00:09:00,640
and just kind of Google people's names,

243
00:09:00,780 --> 00:09:02,340
see what they can find in the white pages or whatever.

244
00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:03,900
- Yeah, it's kind of like the,

245
00:09:04,460 --> 00:09:08,380
like why you would actually want to go to a like high school reunion.

246
00:09:08,900 --> 00:09:09,260
Russell's up.

247
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:09,720
Yeah.

248
00:09:09,830 --> 00:09:10,620
Why don't you go next?

249
00:09:11,060 --> 00:09:11,600
Russell, what do you got?

250
00:09:11,860 --> 00:09:12,080
All right.

251
00:09:12,180 --> 00:09:14,740
My intramural is really crazy.

252
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,760
Uh, involves a synthetic dopamine.

253
00:09:18,340 --> 00:09:20,060
So every time.

254
00:09:21,420 --> 00:09:21,920
Yeah, totally.

255
00:09:22,460 --> 00:09:22,640
Okay.

256
00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:30,499
So you know how every idea has this like, Oh, if only we could gamify this so that

257
00:09:30,540 --> 00:09:33,620
we can work out more or we can eat our vegetables.

258
00:09:34,580 --> 00:09:34,760
Sure.

259
00:09:35,320 --> 00:09:36,820
Skip all of that.

260
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:41,680
Go straight to the brain with some synthetic dopamine hits whenever

261
00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:43,660
you meet your goals, right?

262
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:44,280
Okay.

263
00:09:44,620 --> 00:09:45,240
Truly.

264
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,240
So like you get a little patch, like those insulin patches.

265
00:09:49,660 --> 00:09:50,900
This is why it's an intramural.

266
00:09:52,560 --> 00:09:53,900
Stick it right on your arm.

267
00:09:54,100 --> 00:09:54,400
Right.

268
00:09:54,500 --> 00:09:55,260
Same spot.

269
00:09:55,260 --> 00:09:55,420
Like

270
00:09:55,420 --> 00:09:56,460
an insulin pump maybe?

271
00:09:57,620 --> 00:09:58,100
Yes.

272
00:09:58,280 --> 00:09:58,480
Yes.

273
00:09:58,680 --> 00:09:59,260
Dial in.

274
00:09:59,480 --> 00:09:59,660
Yep.

275
00:09:59,860 --> 00:10:02,820
maybe a little less than an insulin pump because it's dopamine.

276
00:10:03,420 --> 00:10:06,480
So, and then every time you check an item off your list,

277
00:10:07,160 --> 00:10:10,060
app sends a message to your little dopamine patch.

278
00:10:10,660 --> 00:10:10,800
Boom.

279
00:10:11,220 --> 00:10:16,100
Now you're straight addicted to completing the work, working out.

280
00:10:16,780 --> 00:10:20,700
You are, you have truly biohacked your brain.

281
00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:23,000
Dopamine.

282
00:10:23,190 --> 00:10:23,720
Through dopamine.

283
00:10:24,080 --> 00:10:26,280
Like, I mean, like that's what you're doing anyway, right?

284
00:10:26,660 --> 00:10:27,240
Does dopamine

285
00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:28,140
go in the blood?

286
00:10:28,620 --> 00:10:31,040
Stay in the brain. The

287
00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:31,520
engineers

288
00:10:31,520 --> 00:10:32,260
will figure it out later.

289
00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:32,860
That's right.

290
00:10:33,460 --> 00:10:37,020
I think you know you get a little neuro link, okay? You get a little

291
00:10:37,020 --> 00:10:38,400
neuro link in there.

292
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:38,820
Okay,

293
00:10:38,900 --> 00:10:39,900
this is why it's...

294
00:10:40,620 --> 00:10:45,640
But you can have a lot of human rights violations pretty quick on here, but I love where it's going. Okay.

295
00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:49,060
Okay, so what got me thinking about this was when

296
00:10:49,060 --> 00:10:52,620
my wife was having a baby. They pump you with progesterone,

297
00:10:52,800 --> 00:10:55,040
which is a form of oxytocin.

298
00:10:56,100 --> 00:11:00,060
Synthetic oxytocin, so I mean if you can't do dopamine you could do that

299
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:05,880
I think it's like the love drug or whatever like just fall in love with your Asana emails

300
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:10,120
Just or your test list like just pump a little

301
00:11:11,220 --> 00:11:17,220
Oxytocin into the bad parts of your day, so you truly just love what you're doing

302
00:11:19,700 --> 00:11:19,800
I

303
00:11:19,900 --> 00:11:20,440
Don't I

304
00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:21,460
I'm sure there's

305
00:11:21,460 --> 00:11:21,760
a

306
00:11:22,540 --> 00:11:27,700
Some some deregulated country or you know where you could totally do that and I think

307
00:11:27,700 --> 00:11:28,700
why not?

308
00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:32,080
I think you could probably get a lot of corporate sponsorships

309
00:11:32,120 --> 00:11:36,220
They would save a ton of money on things like ice cream socials and work-life balance

310
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:43,480
That's true. I thought you were saying a lot of corporations might be interested in it because then there's a great advertising opportunity

311
00:11:43,640 --> 00:11:47,120
Every time I drive by Arby's it gets a little shot right to the arm

312
00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:47,900
boy. I love

313
00:11:47,900 --> 00:11:48,520
Arby's so

314
00:11:48,520 --> 00:11:49,000
much

315
00:11:49,780 --> 00:11:50,100
that is

316
00:11:50,100 --> 00:11:51,379
the

317
00:11:51,740 --> 00:11:53,020
dystopian hellscape that you

318
00:11:53,020 --> 00:11:54,840
have open possibility to.

319
00:11:55,370 --> 00:11:59,800
Free Arby's for a year if you plug in.

320
00:12:00,580 --> 00:12:00,740
Okay.

321
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:01,620
Yeah.

322
00:12:01,820 --> 00:12:02,340
Yeesh.

323
00:12:02,540 --> 00:12:02,720
Yeah.

324
00:12:02,980 --> 00:12:09,060
My real idea for tonight is actually weirdly close to this.

325
00:12:09,220 --> 00:12:12,980
So I can't believe that you said that.

326
00:12:13,060 --> 00:12:13,680
That's perfect.

327
00:12:14,570 --> 00:12:15,980
Well, that's a perfect segue then.

328
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:16,500
Perfect

329
00:12:16,500 --> 00:12:16,860
segue.

330
00:12:16,910 --> 00:12:17,080
You

331
00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:18,320
must go first, please.

332
00:12:18,400 --> 00:12:18,960
I insist.

333
00:12:19,340 --> 00:12:19,480
Della,

334
00:12:19,640 --> 00:12:20,200
what is the idea

335
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:21,240
that you've brought for us this evening?

336
00:12:21,340 --> 00:12:21,860
Okay,

337
00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:30,700
so here's the idea and it's a little bit of a departure from Russ's in that where

338
00:12:31,740 --> 00:12:35,440
he's maybe suggesting that we increase dopamine.

339
00:12:36,940 --> 00:12:40,780
I am proposing somewhat of a dopamine torpedo.

340
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,640
So dopamine torpedo works a little bit like this.

341
00:12:47,220 --> 00:12:56,300
So you know those in the early 2000s, those low res computer pranks you'd play on your

342
00:12:56,380 --> 00:13:02,500
friends where you focus really hard on this little minivan driving down a hillside.

343
00:13:02,660 --> 00:13:08,420
It's winding through the hill, it's driving through some trees, and then all of a sudden

344
00:13:09,560 --> 00:13:15,640
your face is just inches from the screen and you experience the worst jump scare of your

345
00:13:15,820 --> 00:13:15,980
life.

346
00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:22,600
It just makes you want to throw your computer out the window, smash it into a million pieces.

347
00:13:22,860 --> 00:13:24,400
It makes you need to leave the room.

348
00:13:25,130 --> 00:13:26,200
You want nothing to do with it.

349
00:13:26,260 --> 00:13:29,640
You're not just going to go do the next thing on the computer.

350
00:13:29,920 --> 00:13:34,160
You want to be a mile away from that as fast as possible because what if it comes back?

351
00:13:35,960 --> 00:13:42,640
Today, we are spending three and a half hours a day, literally inches from our screen.

352
00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:46,040
Not capitalizing on this to

353
00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,940
Deregulate our addiction to our phone

354
00:13:48,940 --> 00:13:53,880
So we have all of these like it kicks you off after a certain amount of time

355
00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:57,700
But you're still left wanting it at that moment

356
00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:04,060
So it's like setting a limit for how many cigarettes you can have in a day instead of making you not want the cigarette

357
00:14:04,680 --> 00:14:04,900
so

358
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:07,860
Dopamine torpedo I am proposing.

359
00:14:08,350 --> 00:14:09,940
This is an operating system feature

360
00:14:11,760 --> 00:14:17,700
Every say 10 seconds of active activity where you're interacting with something on your screen

361
00:14:18,560 --> 00:14:21,260
Every maybe maybe five to ten minutes

362
00:14:21,860 --> 00:14:25,939
There's like a coin flip on whether or not you'll get this just horrendous

363
00:14:26,920 --> 00:14:28,300
Unpredictable jump scare

364
00:14:28,300 --> 00:14:28,820
sure,

365
00:14:29,180 --> 00:14:30,780
so it's got to be so worth it

366
00:14:30,940 --> 00:14:35,240
Whatever you're doing that you're willing to just like ruin your day

367
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:40,580
To like remain on your phone for longer than you need to it doesn't activate if you're just like

368
00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:47,160
Trying to watch a movie on the flight or something and you're just like, you know using your attention span

369
00:14:47,900 --> 00:14:53,500
Appropriately to just watch a thing but like if you're scrolling if you're like doing a whole bunch of stuff

370
00:14:54,380 --> 00:14:56,420
then yeah, you're gonna have an

371
00:14:57,580 --> 00:14:58,140
experience

372
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:01,260
Direct your attention

373
00:15:01,260 --> 00:15:04,860
elsewhere. So genius every minute you're on tick-tock the

374
00:15:04,860 --> 00:15:05,460
probability.

375
00:15:05,620 --> 00:15:05,960
Yeah. Yeah

376
00:15:09,540 --> 00:15:10,660
3%

377
00:15:10,660 --> 00:15:11,240
Terrifying.

378
00:15:12,720 --> 00:15:15,240
Knowing that it's going to happen more and more likely.

379
00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:15,720
Yeah.

380
00:15:15,960 --> 00:15:18,400
I'm being held at gunpoint by my phone.

381
00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,500
It's like a roulette, and the odds are not in your favor.

382
00:15:23,140 --> 00:15:27,500
But the odds are in your favor for re-regulating your brain.

383
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:28,300
Totally.

384
00:15:28,340 --> 00:15:28,600
Quality

385
00:15:28,600 --> 00:15:29,040
of life.

386
00:15:29,340 --> 00:15:29,480
Yeah.

387
00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:30,560
Quality of life.

388
00:15:31,040 --> 00:15:31,740
A couple of years

389
00:15:31,740 --> 00:15:32,960
ago, both Apple and Google

390
00:15:33,120 --> 00:15:35,440
made a really big deal about the digital wellness things

391
00:15:35,500 --> 00:15:36,380
they were trying to push.

392
00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:38,100
Like, this is the time we're going

393
00:15:38,100 --> 00:15:44,400
Yeah, you know introduce these screen time and family parental monitoring and and lock yourself out of stuff

394
00:15:44,410 --> 00:15:50,700
Make your phone black and white all those little features, but this is the like nuclear bomb version man that

395
00:15:50,700 --> 00:15:51,020
rules

396
00:15:51,120 --> 00:15:56,600
Yeah, it's gonna work get vibration involved as well. It's just like a multi-sensory experience

397
00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:01,380
Right, yeah,

398
00:16:01,470 --> 00:16:04,400
you override system volume absolutely do

399
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:08,080
throw a battery pack on their little shocks. Yeah

400
00:16:08,080 --> 00:16:08,300
- Yeah,

401
00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:09,300
oh yeah.

402
00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:11,140
- Yeah, charges your phone and shocks you

403
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,140
every randomly 10 seconds.

404
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:13,980
- Right.

405
00:16:14,380 --> 00:16:14,600
- I'm

406
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,420
picturing like the light version of this.

407
00:16:16,540 --> 00:16:18,500
- Case that would like emit a terrible smell

408
00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,380
or like some like goo or something

409
00:16:20,500 --> 00:16:21,720
if you have sensory issues.

410
00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:23,380
- Just old mushrooms.

411
00:16:24,300 --> 00:16:25,640
- Ah, there's ketchup all over my

412
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:26,020
bed,

413
00:16:26,180 --> 00:16:26,400
damn

414
00:16:26,400 --> 00:16:26,520
it.

415
00:16:28,960 --> 00:16:30,580
- Yes, yes, exactly.

416
00:16:30,590 --> 00:16:31,240
- Is that a worm?

417
00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:31,940
- Nope,

418
00:16:32,100 --> 00:16:32,640
that's--

419
00:16:32,820 --> 00:16:33,420
- That's incredible.

420
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,220
- I think I would install this.

421
00:16:35,330 --> 00:16:37,300
I actually would install it.

422
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,380
And then every once in a while, it's just an ad,

423
00:16:39,860 --> 00:16:41,140
just to keep the money generating.

424
00:16:41,530 --> 00:16:44,020
It's like nothing more terrible than a fricking ad.

425
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:45,240
(laughing)

426
00:16:46,300 --> 00:16:47,640
- Liberty Mutual Insurance!

427
00:16:50,170 --> 00:16:50,300
(laughing)

428
00:16:54,100 --> 00:16:57,860
- Well, and the number of completely unhinged jobs

429
00:16:57,900 --> 00:16:59,020
that this creates as well,

430
00:16:59,110 --> 00:17:02,000
because we get habituated to things so quickly.

431
00:17:02,430 --> 00:17:03,840
So you have to come up with things

432
00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:05,640
that are increasingly more scary.

433
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,420
I fear for like the personalization aspect of it

434
00:17:09,500 --> 00:17:13,720
Like if it starts pulling from like, oh look at this terrible picture of you when you were 13

435
00:17:13,880 --> 00:17:15,620
It's just like flashing at you in the face

436
00:17:16,600 --> 00:17:17,780
Get it away from me.

437
00:17:18,140 --> 00:17:19,100
Yeah, I'd rather be dead

438
00:17:19,199 --> 00:17:23,560
The settings have things for gore and for like all of it totally

439
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,760
Fringe texts like the worst text you've ever sent just on your screen that it does

440
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:30,720
send to somebody

441
00:17:31,720 --> 00:17:33,420
Locked and loaded if

442
00:17:33,420 --> 00:17:35,780
you don't just anything we can do to keep you off

443
00:17:35,780 --> 00:17:37,640
your phone locked out of that one

444
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,160
That's ready to go to your ex

445
00:17:42,059 --> 00:17:45,320
It's a text from your mom it says did you mean to send this? Yeah, right

446
00:17:49,260 --> 00:17:50,220
Just from the top

447
00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:53,620
Della whoa, you're diabolical

448
00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,580
How much I care yeah,

449
00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,159
yeah, that's right it's

450
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,560
Sadism for better of humanity. It's for good.

451
00:18:05,090 --> 00:18:06,300
Somehow it's better than

452
00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:13,720
Spending your time your free time your limited free time on a thing that doesn't feel good and doesn't help people.

453
00:18:14,260 --> 00:18:14,380
Yeah

454
00:18:15,940 --> 00:18:20,660
No, we're just gonna dig into our brain in the amygdala and get that core guttural reaction of fear

455
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:21,100
That's how

456
00:18:21,100 --> 00:18:21,660
we're gonna solve

457
00:18:21,660 --> 00:18:22,600
the world's problems.

458
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,920
So Russell, how does this pair with your?

459
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:31,180
It's amazing or are they competitors in the market?

460
00:18:32,900 --> 00:18:37,540
So after you drop your phone on the ground screaming you get hit with a dopamine hit

461
00:18:38,160 --> 00:18:39,880
Because you're away from your phone

462
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:44,440
Really, you know send the mood swing all the way to the positive, you know

463
00:18:45,460 --> 00:18:46,480
Sure. Yeah, I think that's

464
00:18:47,360 --> 00:18:49,900
We could we could partner it could be a good way for

465
00:18:49,900 --> 00:18:52,040
you to finally feel like not

466
00:18:52,799 --> 00:18:56,379
Drawn to your phone if that happens to you two times

467
00:18:57,020 --> 00:18:57,460
That

468
00:18:57,460 --> 00:19:00,860
is a different relationship that you have with this object now.

469
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:01,640
Right.

470
00:19:02,120 --> 00:19:05,540
Yeah, that's not just altering the behavior while the app is on.

471
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,360
That's like permanently changing the way I feel about it.

472
00:19:09,580 --> 00:19:09,980
Right.

473
00:19:09,980 --> 00:19:10,580
You might tune

474
00:19:10,580 --> 00:19:14,580
the fear to a person too, because like you have accelerometers in your phone.

475
00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:17,280
You can see how big the reaction, the jump is from that.

476
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:18,980
You're like, "What does this person react to?

477
00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:20,780
How can we make this as horrible

478
00:19:20,780 --> 00:19:22,080
as possible to them?"

479
00:19:22,080 --> 00:19:22,900
All this has to do

480
00:19:22,900 --> 00:19:24,080
is terrify

481
00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,000
you three or four dozen times

482
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:27,200
you

483
00:19:27,200 --> 00:19:31,200
right right I think the add

484
00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:34,320
-ons of like you can put mousetraps you know

485
00:19:34,340 --> 00:19:40,620
just go go full hardware with it right I'm gonna finger off yeah I'm that

486
00:19:40,640 --> 00:19:45,620
addicted you know I mean this is the yeah dude

487
00:19:45,620 --> 00:19:46,780
what if this is a parental

488
00:19:46,860 --> 00:19:53,000
control setting oh no oh no Bob is not coming down for dinner so you have two

489
00:19:52,960 --> 00:20:01,840
minutes or I'm sending the thing. Boom. You hear it like from the other room. I said get downstairs!

490
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:05,360
Dinner time!

491
00:20:06,780 --> 00:20:06,900
Exactly.

492
00:20:06,900 --> 00:20:11,020
Your number one investor is gonna be like big therapy for all the trauma

493
00:20:11,020 --> 00:20:12,060
this is gonna induce.

494
00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:13,080
Yes.

495
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:15,180
No, it's gonna be phone

496
00:20:15,180 --> 00:20:17,580
companies because people are gonna have to buy a whole bunch of

497
00:20:17,580 --> 00:20:17,900
new

498
00:20:17,900 --> 00:20:17,940
phones.

499
00:20:17,940 --> 00:20:18,160
Yeah

500
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:19,740
right. Toss it in a lake.

501
00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:21,080
Chase the soul!

502
00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:22,840
You break, I fix.

503
00:20:23,130 --> 00:20:23,260
Yeah.

504
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:23,580
Yeah.

505
00:20:24,200 --> 00:20:24,360
Yeah.

506
00:20:25,220 --> 00:20:26,520
Or like waterproof,

507
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:29,740
drop proof phone case companies like Otterbox.

508
00:20:30,060 --> 00:20:30,280
Oh

509
00:20:30,280 --> 00:20:30,580
yeah.

510
00:20:30,900 --> 00:20:31,740
Would sponsor this.

511
00:20:31,860 --> 00:20:32,220
Amazing.

512
00:20:32,540 --> 00:20:35,800
We do awards for idea that's most likely to change the world.

513
00:20:36,050 --> 00:20:37,800
Maybe not for the better, but change the world.

514
00:20:37,850 --> 00:20:38,600
I love this one.

515
00:20:38,630 --> 00:20:38,920
That's it,

516
00:20:39,010 --> 00:20:39,160
man.

517
00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:39,740
That's amazing.

518
00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:44,560
We got to play into the fear aspect of the human psyche, you

519
00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:44,720
know?

520
00:20:44,740 --> 00:20:49,300
Look, people are doing something unhealthy, you really have to trick them out of it sometimes.

521
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:52,020
sites as a service.

522
00:20:52,310 --> 00:20:58,960
I did look up like dopamine regulation services like apps

523
00:20:59,460 --> 00:21:03,020
and they all I could find was like lockouts from things

524
00:21:03,020 --> 00:21:03,440
but it's just

525
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:03,580
like

526
00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:04,560
you still want more.

527
00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:05,660
Sure. We need

528
00:21:05,660 --> 00:21:07,420
to change it so you don't want more.

529
00:21:07,710 --> 00:21:07,900
Yeah

530
00:21:08,040 --> 00:21:10,440
yeah. Dopamine torpedo. It's such a

531
00:21:10,440 --> 00:21:11,000
good name too.

532
00:21:11,000 --> 00:21:13,200
You came named and it's like I

533
00:21:13,320 --> 00:21:15,400
have no notes. 10 out of 10 improvement.

534
00:21:16,920 --> 00:21:17,360
(laughing)

535
00:21:21,980 --> 00:21:23,560
- All right, Russell, what do you got this week?

536
00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:24,080
- So,

537
00:21:24,580 --> 00:21:26,440
this idea might be more of an intramural,

538
00:21:26,660 --> 00:21:27,340
but it's whatever.

539
00:21:28,140 --> 00:21:28,580
(laughing)

540
00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:30,580
So I'm sitting at Starbucks.

541
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:33,020
I've been going to Starbucks lately a lot,

542
00:21:33,360 --> 00:21:35,040
just 'cause I don't wanna make coffee.

543
00:21:35,360 --> 00:21:36,900
And every time I take out my phone,

544
00:21:36,930 --> 00:21:39,760
I do the tap to pay, okay?

545
00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:42,560
And I thought, (laughing)

546
00:21:42,740 --> 00:21:44,080
sitting in the drive-thru,

547
00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:46,100
why do I have to do this every time?

548
00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,800
Why can't I just have on my side mirror, okay,

549
00:21:50,500 --> 00:21:55,940
a tap to pay, a rewards app, all of that good stuff,

550
00:21:56,400 --> 00:21:56,620
right?

551
00:21:56,720 --> 00:21:57,900
- Duct tape, a credit card.

552
00:21:58,280 --> 00:21:59,440
- Yes. - Boom, done.

553
00:22:00,380 --> 00:22:02,280
- So this is a little bit more

554
00:22:02,300 --> 00:22:03,980
of the corporate friendly side

555
00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:06,480
because as a corporate entity,

556
00:22:06,740 --> 00:22:09,180
oh, I can track that car that goes through,

557
00:22:09,340 --> 00:22:12,460
I can associate it to their orders, rewards points,

558
00:22:12,460 --> 00:22:15,100
you do the loyalty program thing, right?

559
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:15,760
And

560
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:18,400
like as a customer, I don't have to take out my phone

561
00:22:18,600 --> 00:22:21,080
or maybe there's some extra benefits to this.

562
00:22:21,180 --> 00:22:24,940
Other than that, simply put, it'd be like an NFC tag.

563
00:22:24,940 --> 00:22:28,140
You stick right on there and now everything's good to go.

564
00:22:28,660 --> 00:22:31,380
You go full country club with it, right?

565
00:22:31,919 --> 00:22:32,920
Convenience at its finest.

566
00:22:33,580 --> 00:22:35,780
Oh, Mr. Russell, I see you've made it

567
00:22:35,820 --> 00:22:36,680
to the drive-thru again.

568
00:22:36,760 --> 00:22:37,780
Your regular order?

569
00:22:39,179 --> 00:22:41,760
Yes, Jarvis, Starbucks man.

570
00:22:42,680 --> 00:22:45,380
I would like the Pike's Place Venti

571
00:22:46,620 --> 00:22:47,860
with an extra shot today.

572
00:22:48,740 --> 00:22:51,000
You know, it kinda creates a little bit more

573
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,400
of that personalization too, which would be kinda cool.

574
00:22:55,020 --> 00:22:57,620
I don't know how a McDonald's would use this

575
00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,840
'cause I just think there's a lot of soullessness in there,

576
00:23:00,940 --> 00:23:02,500
but maybe it could bring it back, right?

577
00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:04,520
Create a little bit more relationship

578
00:23:05,020 --> 00:23:08,260
at maybe like a drive-thru or a bank teller

579
00:23:08,820 --> 00:23:09,980
or that kinda thing, right?

580
00:23:11,560 --> 00:23:12,240
Yeah, that's

581
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:13,400
it.

582
00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:16,240
I did a McDonald's breakfast with the app recently.

583
00:23:16,660 --> 00:23:19,000
I hadn't done that in a couple years.

584
00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,400
And man, it's so tedious.

585
00:23:21,980 --> 00:23:23,820
I don't know how-- do they expect everyone doing this

586
00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,740
to do this while driving to the McDonald's?

587
00:23:26,770 --> 00:23:27,500
Is that the idea?

588
00:23:27,860 --> 00:23:28,140
In

589
00:23:28,140 --> 00:23:28,500
the car.

590
00:23:28,980 --> 00:23:29,240
Right?

591
00:23:29,420 --> 00:23:29,660
Yeah.

592
00:23:29,700 --> 00:23:31,060
I think that's what everyone is doing,

593
00:23:31,130 --> 00:23:32,300
whether they acknowledge it or not.

594
00:23:32,380 --> 00:23:35,900
But it is awful trying to poke through the rewards, whatever.

595
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,620
Which deal, daily deal, do you want to redeem today?

596
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:44,160
It's like a fricking, like a children's game on the phone

597
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:45,980
just to get a, like a McMuffin.

598
00:23:46,300 --> 00:23:48,900
- I love that app because I get dollar coffees

599
00:23:49,210 --> 00:23:50,700
all the time on the McDonald's.

600
00:23:50,700 --> 00:23:51,380
- But you know what would be

601
00:23:51,380 --> 00:23:51,720
better?

602
00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,420
You drive up with your side view mirror thing.

603
00:23:54,780 --> 00:23:57,560
And then instead of having to communicate your code,

604
00:23:59,040 --> 00:24:02,080
RF67 or whatever, you just like, it's there.

605
00:24:02,260 --> 00:24:02,920
You've been read.

606
00:24:03,170 --> 00:24:03,820
I love that.

607
00:24:04,080 --> 00:24:07,759
- And I wonder if you could even have a little bit more

608
00:24:07,760 --> 00:24:13,140
of a two-way exchange where, you know, they are catering to you, you feel very

609
00:24:13,480 --> 00:24:19,700
posh, like you are known, maybe you could help them as well by, you know, let's say

610
00:24:19,700 --> 00:24:24,300
you leave a really good review, it'll show them like the nice thing you said

611
00:24:24,340 --> 00:24:27,100
last time you went through so that they feel some

612
00:24:27,100 --> 00:24:28,100
kinship with you

613
00:24:28,100 --> 00:24:29,020
and you feel

614
00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:32,400
like you're already friends, like it's your favorite barista and they're happy

615
00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:33,400
to see you as well.

616
00:24:33,700 --> 00:24:37,740
This is like awesome. Disney World's, they're whispering in

617
00:24:37,740 --> 00:24:41,120
cast members earpiece that it's your birthday today kind of level.

618
00:24:41,260 --> 00:24:41,440
Exactly.

619
00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:43,240
Exactly.

620
00:24:44,100 --> 00:24:44,520
Dang.

621
00:24:45,020 --> 00:24:45,760
Oh, that'd be cool.

622
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:47,960
Oh, it's your birthday coming up.

623
00:24:48,200 --> 00:24:48,480
Blah, blah.

624
00:24:48,700 --> 00:24:49,560
That'd be awesome.

625
00:24:50,060 --> 00:24:50,140
Your

626
00:24:50,140 --> 00:24:50,660
anniversary.

627
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:51,360
Right.

628
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:52,360
Just like, why not?

629
00:24:52,620 --> 00:24:55,080
And it can go anywhere your car goes, right?

630
00:24:55,580 --> 00:25:00,160
So then are businesses paying to get access to the system?

631
00:25:00,240 --> 00:25:01,600
Is that the business model here?

632
00:25:02,140 --> 00:25:06,040
You could have like customers get the tag for free and then the Starbucks's of the world

633
00:25:05,980 --> 00:25:10,080
have to like subscribe to get the readers to be able to like get at the

634
00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:12,000
customer data or whatever you know?

635
00:25:12,500 --> 00:25:14,240
Oh yeah. You're a broker. It turns into like

636
00:25:14,380 --> 00:25:18,480
Google Analytics of you know, oh they shop at these places

637
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:19,000
so

638
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:19,620
now you can

639
00:25:19,720 --> 00:25:22,760
advertise to them. Because I do not want to have...

640
00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,160
everyone hates having 15 fast

641
00:25:24,260 --> 00:25:28,720
food apps on their phone. You don't want to have 15 tags all stuck to the side of your mirror.

642
00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:32,700
Oh no, yeah, just be one. That one's my Wendy's one and that one is my... so yeah no right?

643
00:25:32,700 --> 00:25:33,440
No, no, no, no.

644
00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:35,120
Yeah, it'd have to be one universal.

645
00:25:35,580 --> 00:25:38,640
It'd be like the gold club, you know, kind of options, right?

646
00:25:38,900 --> 00:25:39,120
Yeah.

647
00:25:40,100 --> 00:25:40,460
Exclusive.

648
00:25:41,260 --> 00:25:41,620
AARP.

649
00:25:41,900 --> 00:25:42,020
Yeah.

650
00:25:42,060 --> 00:25:42,420
Yes.

651
00:25:42,740 --> 00:25:43,500
I mean, why not?

652
00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:43,800
Right.

653
00:25:44,100 --> 00:25:44,460
Yeah.

654
00:25:46,580 --> 00:25:49,840
I want some kind of card that gives me discounts everywhere I go.

655
00:25:51,420 --> 00:25:51,780
Yeah.

656
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:55,560
I'm not able to like steal this off your car and run up to a McDonald's and get

657
00:25:55,660 --> 00:25:55,840
something

658
00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:56,140
in my,

659
00:25:56,330 --> 00:25:59,340
or like take a reader and go to all the cars in a parking lot

660
00:25:59,420 --> 00:26:01,160
and charge them for a small coffee.

661
00:26:01,420 --> 00:26:02,000
That's Mike.

662
00:26:02,100 --> 00:26:02,800
That's Andrea.

663
00:26:03,180 --> 00:26:03,620
That's Derek.

664
00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:04,220
Your phone will

665
00:26:04,220 --> 00:26:04,640
catch on

666
00:26:04,640 --> 00:26:05,740
fire because of

667
00:26:05,740 --> 00:26:06,560
our Adela's

668
00:26:06,560 --> 00:26:08,040
app when you do that.

669
00:26:08,180 --> 00:26:08,320
So,

670
00:26:10,140 --> 00:26:14,640
well, it's fine because our cars are all like looking at our faces anyway.

671
00:26:15,120 --> 00:26:15,340
Right.

672
00:26:15,540 --> 00:26:19,380
So like, it's not going to work unless it's actually you or

673
00:26:19,380 --> 00:26:19,720
your

674
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:20,480
partner.

675
00:26:21,180 --> 00:26:22,900
Two factor it or something, whenever

676
00:26:22,900 --> 00:26:23,700
the car

677
00:26:23,700 --> 00:26:24,640
keys are not near

678
00:26:24,640 --> 00:26:24,960
it or

679
00:26:25,020 --> 00:26:26,640
whenever the car's not started, it doesn't

680
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:27,760
have power or something.

681
00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:28,420
Right.

682
00:26:28,580 --> 00:26:30,860
So if your 16-year-old steals your car

683
00:26:30,940 --> 00:26:34,400
and tries to get a double quarter pounder, it won't work.

684
00:26:35,080 --> 00:26:36,800
That's my quarter pounder son.

685
00:26:38,139 --> 00:26:39,960
Thanks for picking it up, right?

686
00:26:41,139 --> 00:26:41,580
[LAUGHTER]

687
00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:45,520
Yeah, I guess this would be cool for parking garages

688
00:26:45,830 --> 00:26:48,580
and that kind of stuff, too, just the convenience of that.

689
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,680
Never having to pull a ticket out, push it back in.

690
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,160
It just scans and goes.

691
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:54,260
I think they

692
00:26:54,260 --> 00:26:54,980
have probably some of that.

693
00:26:54,980 --> 00:26:57,380
Essentially, the iPass, the toll booth system,

694
00:26:57,460 --> 00:26:58,220
But for all

695
00:26:58,220 --> 00:26:58,580
businesses,

696
00:26:58,880 --> 00:26:59,160
isn't it?

697
00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:00,720
I know iPass is kind of moving away

698
00:27:00,860 --> 00:27:05,360
from the physical hardware to a camera and license plate based

699
00:27:05,400 --> 00:27:05,700
system.

700
00:27:05,940 --> 00:27:07,800
Well, that could be really interesting too,

701
00:27:08,080 --> 00:27:13,100
because iPass, I think you can preload a certain budget

702
00:27:13,180 --> 00:27:13,520
as well.

703
00:27:14,020 --> 00:27:16,460
So your thing could tell you, hey,

704
00:27:16,860 --> 00:27:20,040
you are low on fast food budget for this month

705
00:27:20,320 --> 00:27:21,720
based on what you preloaded it.

706
00:27:21,940 --> 00:27:22,900
It's a wellness program.

707
00:27:23,660 --> 00:27:25,980
Right, so it's like super frictionless

708
00:27:25,980 --> 00:27:28,320
to spend your budget and then higher friction

709
00:27:28,800 --> 00:27:29,860
to go above your budget.

710
00:27:30,540 --> 00:27:30,840
-Yeah.

711
00:27:31,300 --> 00:27:32,320
-You want to add another $10?

712
00:27:32,580 --> 00:27:34,240
There's a three-minute cool down,

713
00:27:34,440 --> 00:27:35,000
and you have to

714
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:35,740
drive around.

715
00:27:36,120 --> 00:27:36,340
-Right.

716
00:27:37,380 --> 00:27:38,880
Then you have to go to a smoothie king.

717
00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,120
-Tropical smoothie, please, right?

718
00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:43,920
Only.

719
00:27:45,799 --> 00:27:47,800
You know, this would be good for Kurt, because I was like,

720
00:27:49,179 --> 00:27:53,140
I do some drive-thrus, but I do a lot of side store pickups,

721
00:27:53,260 --> 00:27:53,500
right?

722
00:27:53,720 --> 00:27:55,220
So when they deliver the food, they

723
00:27:55,140 --> 00:27:58,200
and tap, transaction's done, boom, right?

724
00:27:58,460 --> 00:27:58,960
- Curbside.

725
00:27:59,020 --> 00:28:01,180
- Curbside, that's it, yeah, curbside.

726
00:28:01,540 --> 00:28:02,280
- That could work too.

727
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:06,000
- Just a verification thing and all that jazz.

728
00:28:06,580 --> 00:28:07,100
- Does it have a name?

729
00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:08,060
Catchy name?

730
00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:09,880
That's usually your bread and butter, Russell.

731
00:28:11,120 --> 00:28:11,960
- Yeah, there's some--

732
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:12,040
- So you want a

733
00:28:12,040 --> 00:28:14,200
mirror, objects in mirror may

734
00:28:14,200 --> 00:28:14,880
look large.

735
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:15,920
- Sidecar.

736
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:17,880
- Sidecar's

737
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:18,240
good.

738
00:28:18,700 --> 00:28:22,140
- That's a healthcare insurance alternative.

739
00:28:23,060 --> 00:28:24,620
- Better sidecar. - Not for long.

740
00:28:24,860 --> 00:28:25,480
Sidecar

741
00:28:25,480 --> 00:28:26,220
2.

742
00:28:27,140 --> 00:28:27,740
Nice.

743
00:28:28,780 --> 00:28:29,720
Double car.

744
00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:32,480
Double car?

745
00:28:32,940 --> 00:28:33,100
No.

746
00:28:34,820 --> 00:28:35,600
Double car.

747
00:28:36,360 --> 00:28:39,320
Race through? I'm trying to think like drive through but like

748
00:28:40,180 --> 00:28:40,460
speed.

749
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:41,900
Fast pass.

750
00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:44,440
Turbo.

751
00:28:45,740 --> 00:28:46,840
This is work.

752
00:28:48,820 --> 00:28:49,940
Something like that.

753
00:28:50,580 --> 00:28:51,860
We'll have to AI it.

754
00:28:54,040 --> 00:28:55,420
put that in the focus groups

755
00:29:00,580 --> 00:29:01,700
Scott what do you got for us this week?

756
00:29:02,780 --> 00:29:06,160
this too was also an intramural but we have a

757
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:08,080
plant expert and

758
00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:09,200
an audiophile on

759
00:29:09,320 --> 00:29:14,000
so I figure let's just run with it and see what happens so that same work event

760
00:29:14,100 --> 00:29:18,020
that I was telling you about earlier they also ended that night on a karaoke

761
00:29:18,020 --> 00:29:22,740
night and I haven't done one of those in probably a decade, but it got me

762
00:29:22,940 --> 00:29:27,080
thinking though, and I recently saw a YouTube where a guy was just taking.

763
00:29:27,700 --> 00:29:30,900
Heart tangent, a bunch of electrodes, putting it on plant leaves and running

764
00:29:30,980 --> 00:29:34,580
a current through it and spitting it out to a MIDI file and I'm like, that's awesome.

765
00:29:35,300 --> 00:29:39,600
So I'm thinking, can you combine those two things and have a karaoke plant,

766
00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:44,040
something that you actually have different electrodes on, maybe you can,

767
00:29:44,700 --> 00:29:48,240
different plants have different sounds and coming, uh, whatever,

768
00:29:48,500 --> 00:29:49,900
bioelectrical signals coming out of this.

769
00:29:50,060 --> 00:29:53,380
Please correct me if I'm completely wrong on this, but can different plants.

770
00:29:54,139 --> 00:29:55,660
Essentially play different tunes.

771
00:29:55,660 --> 00:29:58,640
And I find some cool combination of plants that all kind of mesh together.

772
00:29:59,420 --> 00:30:01,440
Obviously you're going to be doing a little bit of auto tune to the

773
00:30:01,940 --> 00:30:03,460
synthesis of this coming out, but

774
00:30:03,460 --> 00:30:04,540
I feel

775
00:30:04,540 --> 00:30:05,780
like you could have some fun with this.

776
00:30:06,020 --> 00:30:06,080
Yeah.

777
00:30:06,220 --> 00:30:07,320
Della can plant sing.

778
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:09,780
What's the best

779
00:30:09,780 --> 00:30:10,300
singing voice?

780
00:30:10,420 --> 00:30:11,040
Does exist.

781
00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:12,880
What does exist?

782
00:30:13,140 --> 00:30:13,380
Yes.

783
00:30:13,860 --> 00:30:16,920
I was actually even at an event with one recently

784
00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:18,340
where this was

785
00:30:18,340 --> 00:30:18,700
happening.

786
00:30:18,920 --> 00:30:19,020
- What

787
00:30:19,020 --> 00:30:20,240
exactly does it look like?

788
00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:24,140
- So they are, like Scott was saying,

789
00:30:24,510 --> 00:30:28,480
you can clamp these electrodes onto the leaf

790
00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:33,620
and they will respond to sound and touch

791
00:30:34,380 --> 00:30:37,620
and the electrodes are hooked up to an amp.

792
00:30:38,180 --> 00:30:42,580
So when the guitar player was playing along with them

793
00:30:42,580 --> 00:30:44,900
And when the crowd was clapping, you

794
00:30:44,900 --> 00:30:47,380
could hear the sound changing

795
00:30:47,380 --> 00:30:49,020
and coming out of the app.

796
00:30:49,480 --> 00:30:51,260
And that's based off of electrical signals.

797
00:30:51,460 --> 00:30:51,840
That's not

798
00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:52,260
just

799
00:30:52,260 --> 00:30:55,240
the waves of sound hitting it,

800
00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:57,400
therefore making it amplified or something?

801
00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:58,300
Right.

802
00:30:58,500 --> 00:30:58,820
Really?

803
00:30:59,620 --> 00:30:59,820
So

804
00:30:59,820 --> 00:31:00,020
could

805
00:31:00,020 --> 00:31:02,740
I hook this onto the stem of a large plant

806
00:31:02,980 --> 00:31:05,280
and then tap the leaves like a MIDI drum

807
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:07,820
and play some steel drums or something on it?

808
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:10,700
It's not going to be a one-to-one.

809
00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:15,560
plant's gonna read it a little differently based on what the plant is

810
00:31:15,620 --> 00:31:18,900
and kind of what's going on with it electrochemically.

811
00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:19,880
Whoa. Yeah.

812
00:31:20,060 --> 00:31:21,720
Wow. So we need an at-home

813
00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:22,300
version. Yeah.

814
00:31:22,480 --> 00:31:24,940
My boss in Fern has got like a full

815
00:31:25,220 --> 00:31:28,660
piano on every leaf. I've

816
00:31:28,660 --> 00:31:29,400
always said that.

817
00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,900
Isn't that the tagline of the product I think?

818
00:31:33,080 --> 00:31:34,160
A full piano on every leaf.

819
00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:35,560
I

820
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:38,920
like that. It's um it's definitely like there's a strong

821
00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:42,720
potential for conservation angle there.

822
00:31:43,320 --> 00:31:45,460
Like, "Oh, you can hear them.

823
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:49,120
They're a little bit more anthropomorphized now.

824
00:31:49,500 --> 00:31:51,620
It's very avatar."

825
00:31:51,660 --> 00:31:53,440
-Yes. -Very avatar.

826
00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:54,160
-Could

827
00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:55,120
you make them talk?

828
00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:58,360
Kind of like make screams?

829
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,760
Sorry, I'm going back to horror.

830
00:32:03,750 --> 00:32:03,920
[laughter]

831
00:32:04,180 --> 00:32:04,640
-This

832
00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:05,100
is a

833
00:32:05,100 --> 00:32:06,460
dopamine torpedo

834
00:32:06,460 --> 00:32:06,940
episode.

835
00:32:07,260 --> 00:32:11,060
in the middle of the Amazon rainforest and when the loggers come, it starts screaming.

836
00:32:11,940 --> 00:32:13,040
I guess, yeah.

837
00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:13,440
Oh my god.

838
00:32:13,500 --> 00:32:16,320
Or just, I need to water my plant, you know?

839
00:32:17,000 --> 00:32:20,180
So it starts, "Hey, so

840
00:32:20,180 --> 00:32:21,340
thirsty."

841
00:32:21,340 --> 00:32:22,460
Yeah,

842
00:32:23,620 --> 00:32:24,440
that's interesting.

843
00:32:24,860 --> 00:32:32,700
So is it for caring for the plant better or is it for the entertainment angle on the karaoke

844
00:32:32,700 --> 00:32:37,420
stage because I feel like the sounds that you're asking it to emit are gonna

845
00:32:37,420 --> 00:32:40,700
be a little different like what signals are you trying to optimize for?

846
00:32:41,270 --> 00:32:41,720
Don't mix

847
00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:42,220
those two.

848
00:32:44,120 --> 00:32:47,240
Maybe plant death metal is a genre waiting to be discovered.

849
00:32:48,040 --> 00:32:48,340
What's

850
00:32:48,340 --> 00:32:52,420
wrong with your fern? This would be cool like a botanic gardens like a

851
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:53,400
special event

852
00:32:53,400 --> 00:32:57,660
you know. Oh yeah. It's like super niche but still. Yeah

853
00:32:57,660 --> 00:32:58,220
you travel

854
00:32:58,220 --> 00:33:03,460
around with all your equipment you plug in for like a couple days or a week-long

855
00:33:03,560 --> 00:33:08,220
event they pay you to show up boom boom right now you know the season pass

856
00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:12,220
holders now can hear the sound of their favorite plant they always go to see

857
00:33:12,360 --> 00:33:12,780
right

858
00:33:12,780 --> 00:33:16,640
that's cool that's true you guys hear the latest single from the four

859
00:33:16,740 --> 00:33:17,820
petunias man

860
00:33:17,820 --> 00:33:22,240
the four petunias what a

861
00:33:22,240 --> 00:33:22,680
quartet

862
00:33:22,680 --> 00:33:23,080
playlist

863
00:33:23,080 --> 00:33:24,120
on Spotify yeah

864
00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:24,700
yeah

865
00:33:24,700 --> 00:33:29,320
Love them. All right, Della. What would be the best sounding and worst sounding plant?

866
00:33:29,820 --> 00:33:30,460
I

867
00:33:30,580 --> 00:33:35,800
Don't know. I think you know the the worst sounding plant

868
00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:40,020
Probably one that's just having a really bad time a really bad day

869
00:33:40,020 --> 00:33:41,060
mites or something

870
00:33:41,520 --> 00:33:43,460
Mites the emerald ash borer

871
00:33:44,420 --> 00:33:45,680
yeah, you know

872
00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:46,320
slow

873
00:33:46,320 --> 00:33:49,799
slow death or like the death of of a

874
00:33:50,140 --> 00:33:54,620
Brother or sister tree nearby. They just like feel it slowly

875
00:33:55,200 --> 00:34:00,340
They're like I'm gonna just be declining for the next 15 years before I fall over I guess yeah

876
00:34:04,520 --> 00:34:08,639
I don't know if they mind it though. I think they're just like okay with it. They're like yeah

877
00:34:08,820 --> 00:34:12,379
I'm I'm like gonna be a habitat and food for forever

878
00:34:12,700 --> 00:34:15,419
So I think they like get things that we probably don't

879
00:34:15,419 --> 00:34:16,540
it's probably not the

880
00:34:16,540 --> 00:34:17,580
answer you wanted at all

881
00:34:17,500 --> 00:34:20,540
We'll need your plant translator. We'll start working on that.

882
00:34:20,820 --> 00:34:23,639
Yeah, it's just as easy as the dog one the cat one

883
00:34:27,240 --> 00:34:27,679
You

884
00:34:27,679 --> 00:34:33,820
would make a lot of crazy people really happy if you could turn sounds and signals into words like

885
00:34:34,640 --> 00:34:35,080
Definitely

886
00:34:35,080 --> 00:34:36,960
definitely try to figure that one out doesn't

887
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:38,700
even have to make sense, right? It's just

888
00:34:44,139 --> 00:34:46,020
They'll figure it out eventually. It's a horoscope.

889
00:34:46,399 --> 00:34:49,000
I think plants with like different sized leaves

890
00:34:49,820 --> 00:34:53,100
Scott would be like the ones that sound really cool bunch of

891
00:34:53,100 --> 00:34:53,760
variety of

892
00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:55,080
and then the ones that are

893
00:34:55,080 --> 00:34:55,780
boring

894
00:34:55,800 --> 00:34:56,659
They got the full octaves

895
00:34:56,659 --> 00:34:57,900
right or like big

896
00:34:57,900 --> 00:35:02,680
old. I don't know maybe a weeping willow dude. That's the one sorry

897
00:35:03,420 --> 00:35:04,820
Wow, that's the one that's gonna

898
00:35:04,820 --> 00:35:05,580
sound amazing

899
00:35:07,540 --> 00:35:09,660
The weed plant just plays Bob Marley when you plug

900
00:35:09,660 --> 00:35:10,740
it in. Oh, yeah

901
00:35:10,620 --> 00:35:10,840
Yeah.

902
00:35:12,440 --> 00:35:12,880
Yes.

903
00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:19,480
All right, Leo, what do you got this week?

904
00:35:20,030 --> 00:35:20,300
All right.

905
00:35:20,490 --> 00:35:24,640
Have you seen the cool things that people have made with projectors and Xbox Kinects

906
00:35:24,700 --> 00:35:26,060
or other 3D cameras?

907
00:35:26,340 --> 00:35:29,740
So people make like sandboxes where it's interactive.

908
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:34,760
There's a projector shining down on the sand and you make a valley and then the projector

909
00:35:34,780 --> 00:35:38,540
shows like water trickling over your sand that's not really there or things like that.

910
00:35:39,380 --> 00:35:39,760
I had

911
00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:40,900
an epiphany recently.

912
00:35:41,330 --> 00:35:42,120
You ready for this one?

913
00:35:43,240 --> 00:35:46,560
Xbox connect projector system in the kitchen.

914
00:35:47,060 --> 00:35:49,980
You're mounting it to the ceiling, shining down on your counter.

915
00:35:50,460 --> 00:35:51,580
You've got your recipe.

916
00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:54,660
You've got what looks like a bento box with like sections.

917
00:35:55,480 --> 00:35:58,460
You're putting your two pounds of potatoes over here,

918
00:35:58,490 --> 00:36:00,060
and then it's putting a little checkmark.

919
00:36:00,420 --> 00:36:05,420
You're putting your half a gallon of boiling water over on this side over here.

920
00:36:05,500 --> 00:36:06,820
And OK, you got that part. Great.

921
00:36:07,040 --> 00:36:09,120
Now go, it says right on the counter,

922
00:36:09,360 --> 00:36:10,940
preheat the oven next to 350.

923
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:14,500
I'm talking interactive recipes that guide you

924
00:36:14,620 --> 00:36:16,620
by showing you where to put stuff,

925
00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:19,100
when to do stuff that like holds your hand through it.

926
00:36:19,500 --> 00:36:21,180
It can be for like a cooking class.

927
00:36:21,260 --> 00:36:24,280
It can be for your own personal organization needs.

928
00:36:24,740 --> 00:36:28,640
It can be, there's a spot in our houses

929
00:36:28,760 --> 00:36:30,500
where it sucks to use technology.

930
00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:32,780
And that's when you're covered with like chicken grease

931
00:36:33,020 --> 00:36:35,320
in your hands and you don't wanna like manipulate

932
00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:37,640
that iPad with the recipe on it or whatever, right?

933
00:36:38,060 --> 00:36:41,160
3D projector, connect cameras.

934
00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:42,680
It's right there guys.

935
00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:44,480
You could have it all hands-free.

936
00:36:44,860 --> 00:36:45,740
Voice control, I don't care.

937
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:46,860
Gesture control, whatever.

938
00:36:47,500 --> 00:36:50,960
I want to have this be a Tony Stark interface

939
00:36:51,140 --> 00:36:52,640
for my cooking.

940
00:36:53,820 --> 00:36:54,900
- Whoa. - I love it.

941
00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:55,540
- That's cool.

942
00:36:55,720 --> 00:36:57,920
- Giant virtual buttons projected down

943
00:36:58,040 --> 00:36:59,560
and I can tap and do all the things

944
00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:01,080
and then with just my greasy hands.

945
00:37:01,120 --> 00:37:01,920
- It's already on the counter.

946
00:37:02,020 --> 00:37:03,580
- That's really cool. - I want a 14 inch pizza.

947
00:37:03,700 --> 00:37:04,660
Oh, here's 14 inches.

948
00:37:04,760 --> 00:37:06,020
Boom, circle right there.

949
00:37:06,540 --> 00:37:08,180
Or, I don't know.

950
00:37:08,420 --> 00:37:10,140
- When I'm doing something wrong, right?

951
00:37:10,380 --> 00:37:11,840
That dough is too wet.

952
00:37:12,420 --> 00:37:13,180
Put more flour.

953
00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:14,140
- You're going

954
00:37:14,140 --> 00:37:16,360
to go line up that big yam

955
00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:19,780
that you need to cut into half inch thick

956
00:37:19,780 --> 00:37:20,140
things.

957
00:37:20,320 --> 00:37:21,360
So it's putting lines

958
00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:22,060
across it.

959
00:37:22,240 --> 00:37:23,480
Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, or whatever.

960
00:37:24,120 --> 00:37:24,840
Augmented reality.

961
00:37:25,460 --> 00:37:26,480
- Julianne, right?

962
00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,760
- No, dummy, hold it like this, not like that.

963
00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:31,100
- I like it. - I'm guiding you.

964
00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:37,540
Would it also come with all of the tools that you need so that it would have like the chips inside?

965
00:37:37,690 --> 00:37:42,120
Or do you buy like a set of chips like you can buy labels for your spice jars?

966
00:37:42,660 --> 00:37:46,260
Oh, yeah, sure. Sure. Sure. That could be a monetization strategy

967
00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:47,760
I was thinking because

968
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:52,020
it's optical and camera based that you wouldn't need anything proprietary to read it

969
00:37:52,140 --> 00:37:55,600
But I mean maybe you have to like scan in the 12 ingredients that you know

970
00:37:55,700 --> 00:38:00,300
You're gonna need by touching them on their little reader slash scale or something, you know

971
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:03,100
QR codes just everywhere just every

972
00:38:05,100 --> 00:38:09,500
Put a little sticker on them, it doesn't even have to correlate to this is the sticker for time

973
00:38:10,040 --> 00:38:16,040
It's just this is a sticker with a serial number on it and you tell the computer ahead of time like this code means this

974
00:38:16,120 --> 00:38:18,960
Is you know lettuce or whatever? I don't know

975
00:38:18,960 --> 00:38:21,480
or yeah, it's just a red box and listens for your voice

976
00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:21,820
What

977
00:38:21,820 --> 00:38:22,240
is that?

978
00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:22,660
There

979
00:38:22,660 --> 00:38:23,020
you go

980
00:38:23,020 --> 00:38:23,660
bananas.

981
00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:29,619
I could see major applications for this in training on like a manufacturing line as well

982
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:31,340
Totally a sweet training tool.

983
00:38:31,820 --> 00:38:36,100
People talk about, I think it was Hololens and other augmented reality, Vision Pro

984
00:38:36,780 --> 00:38:42,300
ideas of like, I need to repair this motorcycle and put new spark plugs in.

985
00:38:42,460 --> 00:38:46,960
So I'm looking through augmented reality and it's showing the exploded diagram of

986
00:38:47,620 --> 00:38:48,800
where that part's going to be.

987
00:38:48,940 --> 00:38:52,720
And it's saying, go over to this side and putting arrows where I need to be and all that kind of

988
00:38:52,720 --> 00:38:53,680
stuff. That's cool.

989
00:38:53,780 --> 00:38:59,660
But like, there's no people who want to wear a VR headset for nine hours a day on an assembly

990
00:38:59,660 --> 00:39:00,820
a hot factory, right?

991
00:39:00,980 --> 00:39:01,960
Like, there's

992
00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:05,140
got to be a better way to do this. And if you've got projectors

993
00:39:05,200 --> 00:39:06,340
and cameras, you're there.

994
00:39:06,580 --> 00:39:12,560
Right. I've also seen this successfully used, sort of, in like a human

995
00:39:12,660 --> 00:39:19,260
dissection simulator in a university. They have like a table that's the size of a cadaver, but you

996
00:39:19,340 --> 00:39:20,980
can just re-dissect it,

997
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:22,420
unlike a

998
00:39:22,420 --> 00:39:23,760
cadaver. So you can

999
00:39:23,760 --> 00:39:25,680
like, you know, cut and peel

1000
00:39:25,680 --> 00:39:26,780
and, you know,

1001
00:39:27,580 --> 00:39:32,260
Things back in in whatever order. I'm sure it tells you when you got it right and got it wrong

1002
00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:33,060
That's not where

1003
00:39:33,060 --> 00:39:33,700
brains go

1004
00:39:35,259 --> 00:39:36,380
Yeah, exactly

1005
00:39:37,440 --> 00:39:37,800
exactly

1006
00:39:44,260 --> 00:39:46,080
That cadavers nose just let it

1007
00:39:50,820 --> 00:39:51,880
Pivoting new pitch

1008
00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:53,120
Turns

1009
00:39:53,120 --> 00:39:54,480
into like Don't Like Daddy, it

1010
00:39:54,480 --> 00:39:56,040
just like sits all the way up.

1011
00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:02,580
Full-size real human scale operation.

1012
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:06,760
On a cadaver. That's awful.

1013
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:09,040
Terrifying, yes.

1014
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:13,020
No, no, food, kitchen, cooking, factory line, right.

1015
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:15,840
Sorry,

1016
00:40:16,080 --> 00:40:17,700
that's not what you were taking.

1017
00:40:17,740 --> 00:40:17,980
No,

1018
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:18,620
that's great.

1019
00:40:19,940 --> 00:40:21,100
- I think this is really good for,

1020
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:23,560
like you know mise en place,

1021
00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:24,300
like that whole

1022
00:40:24,300 --> 00:40:24,780
concept

1023
00:40:24,780 --> 00:40:25,880
of keeping everything

1024
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:26,540
in

1025
00:40:26,540 --> 00:40:27,380
its place.

1026
00:40:27,740 --> 00:40:28,060
Right?

1027
00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:30,540
Every, yeah, so like when you're cooking,

1028
00:40:30,610 --> 00:40:32,580
if you have, this is where your potatoes go,

1029
00:40:32,660 --> 00:40:34,420
they should stay there, right?

1030
00:40:34,820 --> 00:40:35,360
When you're done,

1031
00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:36,280
you move it over here.

1032
00:40:36,380 --> 00:40:37,740
It's like this method of cooking

1033
00:40:37,840 --> 00:40:39,720
where it keeps everything in order.

1034
00:40:40,140 --> 00:40:41,540
You can use your projector to like,

1035
00:40:42,020 --> 00:40:42,380
when you're done,

1036
00:40:42,500 --> 00:40:43,060
put it here

1037
00:40:43,060 --> 00:40:43,680
on your counter.

1038
00:40:44,260 --> 00:40:47,799
Move those books and toys off the counter

1039
00:40:47,800 --> 00:40:50,760
so you have the room to keep your space organized.

1040
00:40:51,130 --> 00:40:52,680
It makes cleanup easier.

1041
00:40:52,940 --> 00:40:56,140
It actually, even if you're a good home chef,

1042
00:40:56,780 --> 00:40:59,000
it'll actually make you a better one, right?

1043
00:40:59,320 --> 00:41:00,140
That'd be cool.

1044
00:41:00,580 --> 00:41:02,240
- It's like Scott's gridfinity thing

1045
00:41:02,450 --> 00:41:02,860
that you're

1046
00:41:02,860 --> 00:41:03,420
on a

1047
00:41:03,420 --> 00:41:04,300
kick for right now.

1048
00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:07,640
Organizational trays for everything.

1049
00:41:08,300 --> 00:41:11,340
Don't we all want the cooking show,

1050
00:41:11,530 --> 00:41:14,320
and here is exactly two tablespoons of salt

1051
00:41:14,340 --> 00:41:16,000
in a beautiful little bowl, right?

1052
00:41:16,460 --> 00:41:17,320
We're not gonna get that.

1053
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:22,340
There's no way you're gonna take the time to pre-measure everything out in a gorgeous matching cookware.

1054
00:41:22,580 --> 00:41:24,680
So, what's the easiest next best thing?

1055
00:41:24,900 --> 00:41:30,020
What if it was shining it on an interactive malleable projector surface?

1056
00:41:30,420 --> 00:41:30,560
Yeah.

1057
00:41:30,720 --> 00:41:31,260
Oh man.

1058
00:41:31,860 --> 00:41:33,800
I like that. Probably clear bowls.

1059
00:41:34,440 --> 00:41:34,780
Sure.

1060
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:35,640
Ooh.

1061
00:41:36,000 --> 00:41:36,120
Yes.

1062
00:41:36,120 --> 00:41:41,680
If you had a clear bowl and it was watching, you could be holding it, the camera's shining down,

1063
00:41:42,220 --> 00:41:46,620
and you've got like a little like keep going, keep going indicator as you're pulling,

1064
00:41:46,900 --> 00:41:49,120
And then, oh, it's just about end stop.

1065
00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,640
This is almost like a video game you've created for yourself.

1066
00:41:51,820 --> 00:41:57,740
Like how close, it's like WarioWare, how close can you get the thing chopped to diced, but

1067
00:41:57,820 --> 00:41:59,880
not to minced or whatever, you know what I mean?

1068
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,760
You could make this a whole game.

1069
00:42:03,120 --> 00:42:08,300
- And the messier you are, the less clear the instructions become as well.

1070
00:42:08,560 --> 00:42:09,280
Because if you leave

1071
00:42:09,280 --> 00:42:10,540
flour and

1072
00:42:10,540 --> 00:42:13,200
bits all over, all of a sudden you're cooking blind again.

1073
00:42:13,500 --> 00:42:15,220
- Yeah, it punishes you.

1074
00:42:15,620 --> 00:42:15,880
Yeah.

1075
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:17,560
Clean, clean, clean.

1076
00:42:18,300 --> 00:42:18,580
Yeah.

1077
00:42:19,319 --> 00:42:21,700
30% counter must be a visible.

1078
00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:22,340
Yeah.

1079
00:42:22,500 --> 00:42:22,880
That's fun.

1080
00:42:23,180 --> 00:42:27,020
This would be, if you put ingredients out there and then it would come up with

1081
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,540
a recipe using those ingredients.

1082
00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:32,420
So you like, here's all the stuff I got.

1083
00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:33,720
Just lay it out on the counter.

1084
00:42:34,020 --> 00:42:34,260
Yeah.

1085
00:42:34,540 --> 00:42:35,120
That's a thing.

1086
00:42:35,660 --> 00:42:36,660
And then, boom.

1087
00:42:36,700 --> 00:42:39,660
I've never seen it just cataloged like a, you know, here, look

1088
00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:41,000
at it all and do it for me.

1089
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,740
You always have to like speak it or type it or something.

1090
00:42:44,300 --> 00:42:44,860
That's cool.

1091
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:48,120
Let me throw a bunch of stuff on the counter and let the computer decide. Yeah

1092
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:49,040
got some stuff

1093
00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:52,720
I need to get rid of your expiration throw on the counter. Oh,

1094
00:42:52,740 --> 00:42:54,000
there's expirations on them, too

1095
00:42:54,060 --> 00:43:00,880
I see those lasagna noodles are going bad and you have stuff. What about breakfast lasagna? Oh, I wouldn't have considered that

1096
00:43:00,980 --> 00:43:03,500
Yeah, thank you computer, you know, that's fun

1097
00:43:04,260 --> 00:43:05,580
Yes, there we go

1098
00:43:06,040 --> 00:43:10,380
Breakfast lasagna that would totally never cross my mind until I'd put it on a counter

1099
00:43:10,380 --> 00:43:12,280
once or twice, but yeah

1100
00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:13,900
And that's

1101
00:43:13,900 --> 00:43:20,820
where like Instacart comes in because they're like if you just hit order on these three ingredients

1102
00:43:20,820 --> 00:43:22,960
