Live demos are a power move tbh. I write software. And I swear. No matter how much I practice, when it comes to demoing product to my customers, something always goes wrong.
We've gotten it down (most of the time - as in 60% of the time it works every time) by ensuring massive, constant, never-ending shoveling of our own dogfood into our gaping maws, combined with continuous functional testing (on continuous build) that consumes the equivalent compute of the entire world in 1994. Of course, there's a 33.333% chance that Zoom, Teams or the underlying platform with F us mid-stream.
I had a project in uni where our demo went wrong(we still got a B). I decided to do another demo because nobody was gonna present on that day, so I presented…my fabulous button that switches between dark and light mode. Funniest thing ever.
This is why the gaming industry back in the day had more people buying whatever. Because they used to do a lot of those back in the PS3/XB360/Wii era of gaming. Now it's all "In-engine", or cinematic, "Or heavily cherry-picked gameplay footage". Or they'll pull a pre-alpha build out of their ass that doesn't represent the current build. So, it is not to show the heinous in-game shop.
That second to last bit is honestly horrifying. Grandmas have been getting tricked by not their real grandsons for years. But its getting to the point someone can literally facetime as you without anyone else's knowledge. This is going beyond scruples/media literacy. How are we gonna trust *anything* anymore?
Having the same thought, I will make out a codeword like a password with my family which is one try only to check if someone is in a real emergency or if it is a fake
I get where people who hate it are coming from. I hate it too, but many of them make the same mistake of acting like it isnt that big of a deal and ignore the rapid progress being made. Ill see many videos about why Ai isnt a big deal or how its actually not moving that fast and literally none of them have anything to back up their claims or theories while we can observe AI making leaps in progress in times faster than those making them could have predicted. People are tying to stick their heads in the sand over this.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX. Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project. There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux! Sorry i had to shitpost my bad
The "90% faster than sound" makes some sense given the ANC need to process incoming audio and play the corresponding frequencies to cancel it in the time it takes for the sound to go into your ear. It's quite literally racing against the speed of sound.
Maybe because people like this guy 👆🏼 have said the names together so many freakin times that the AI doesn't know the difference anymore. It is absolutely absurd.
every time I hear about anything with a vtuber, I immediately think back to the time one outed themselves as a guy and instantly panicked because of how may people just dropped him.

A "fun" AI risk that I see no one talking about is how you can easily make it hide backdoor access, keylogger, scrapper, etc code in things if you give AI access to the project in any way. Basically before you had to risk having a double agent/insider leaking stuff and getting caught. Now you have a tool that can simply delete all backdoor access and reapply it anywhere in the code. "Oh but I can just read the code," yet ignore that one beta demo of the AI making a todo list for traveling and changing multiple things within a second.
The Pixel Screenshot app seems like it should just be a feature in the regular photos app. But as a less creepy version of Windows Recall, I can see it being very useful.

i don't get camera bumps. Why are they always so prominently featured? I miss the time phones could be put flat on a table without fear of damaging the camera optics.
you won't damage the optics
but yea, they are ugly as heck
fr, I just want a phone that regresses and makes me use my physical cameras
Gee perhaps because the cameras are much larger these days with more complex lenses
@@Roshan_420 phone cams still are far, far behind from any actual camera. a 2008 Point and Shoot has better lenses.
100x magnification? i have a 2011 consumer camera with 187.8x. why do people bother with phone cameras?? theyre worse with the only benefit being "oh, but the pics are automatically on my phone", my 2014 camera has WiFi transfer.. and has more zoom than any phone.
@@warmoaran3 “why do people bother with phone cameras” because you 1. Always have it with you 2. Its small and fits anywhere 3. Its convenient, UI is easy to use 4. The photos are really good and even the most shit phone camera is good enough for most people 5. No one gives a shit about 100x “space zoom” mate most people just take selfies anyways and phone cameras aren’t far behind, iPhone competes with DSLR
2:28 now that’s a wheezer
Laughing so hard hahahah 😂
Just want a quality phone running latest android that has headphone jack & external MicroSD Storage.
Amen to that
sony
@@reybk1253 I'll second Sony. Idk about MOST recent OS's, but a lot of their phones still support wired earbuds and additional storage
HTC
Asus phone 7. based on everything you said. the 8 it's ok, I just hate the punch hole
I could listen to Riley all day... He´s just the best.
He should have said "Seems like we have a cybertruck situation here" and he would go in history for best presentation ever
Brahhhh 🤣🤣🙏
That AMD can afford to do such a peak-MEH, overhyped, delayed, slightly messy, and amended launch tells you in exactly how deep s*it intel is.
the double voice crack in the "WOOOOO" is never not gonna get me
How email can be not legally binding? I would "understand" if they would force him to stop public developement but I don't understand how they can force him to delete previous open source work they allowed him to publish
I think retracting a permission is fine, it's not a binding contract and they have the rights so they should be allowed to change their opinion. If they sued the developer for publishing it in the first place, however, I'm pretty sure they would lose. I think the real baffling thing here is that they stopped this project while Nvidia is so far ahead with cuda.
Best Sneeze of the Year goes to Riley
Those paid cheers.
"The essential mineral gamers crave ... " Please tell me that was a reference (on purpose) to Idiocracy 🤣🤣🤣
The 1 TB version of the Pixel 9 Pro XL cost the same as my 1 TB iPhone 14 Pro Max. These aren't mid tier phones any more.
Yeah, seems like they eventually release a mid-tier version of it now. The Pixel 7 and 8 got the 7a and 8a that starts at $499.
@@wairgald Yeah but the specs, especially of the processor, aren't as good as the Galaxy S24 or iPhone 15. Shouldn't be priced the same. Where I live, they are.
Moto FTW
@@wairgald They used to be mid-tier phones and the A series was in the upper-budget range. Now they're "Flagships" with lower specs, and the A series is upper mid-tier.
Just one correction here...SteamOS is not based upon Linux, it *IS* a version of Linux.
Linux is the name of the kernel, so it IS an OS based upon Linux, not a version.
I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're refering to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.
Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called Linux, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.
There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called Linux distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux!
Sorry i had to shitpost my bad
this feels like the darkest techlinked episode ever.
i love it
I've always loved the flat sides. I wish every phone had them.
Some people would say the demo goof was on purpose as it only happened on a Samsung phone, after that they only used google phones.
if you do not have a pulse im not sure how EMS would help unless they are already standing next to you
You’ve got a few minutes to get zapped back to life
I remember using crowd tangle YEARS ago at my old job where I did web analytics and SEO.
More things I cannot afford!
Not worth it even if u can afford
and things we do not need (ai)
Riley's mustache should read the news stories
I just want a refreshed LG V30
So many have been sacrificed at the altar of live demo spirits.
9:47 ahhhhh you got me there😂
3:25 How Mechanicus talking about AI😀😀😀
Did we miss that he used a Samsung phone 📱 to get it done 😅
This is the only reason I watch anything from LTT media.
Gemini is going sooo well for Google. Lol.
I don't even care about the tech news half the time, I live for the quick bits- bit, and the outros. Always funny 😂Riley is the best!
Imagine cheering at corporate presentation
I could see it if there was ever actually anything to chear about.
Damn I miss when tech was actually cool ;-;
It was his mom
The corporate equivalent to clapping when the plane lands
They cheered for poor demo guy
@@loganatori6117the Add Me feature is pretty cool though
They should name this conference : WithYourPermission2024
Demo guy was adorably nerdy cute lol
The "90% faster than sound" makes some sense given the ANC need to process incoming audio and play the corresponding frequencies to cancel it in the time it takes for the sound to go into your ear. It's quite literally racing against the speed of sound.
"Get your stinkin’ paws off me, you damn dirty AI!"
7:18 why does trump have putins facial features
Because Trump is Putin's puppet?
Maybe because people like this guy 👆🏼 have said the names together so many freakin times that the AI doesn't know the difference anymore. It is absolutely absurd.
Bro it’s literally a mix of the 2 😂
Add Me is a cool feature. I wouldn't call it a photo, more like a collage. But it's still pretty cool and useful.
what even is a photo anymore
photos died 4 years ago. the only real photos are from actual cameras with no enhancing ai.
1:25 calls emergency and they just hang-up beacause no one answer. Cool
That someone who was way too excited in the audience definitely had their job on the line if it didn’t work 💀
At this point, my CZcams feed is 90% Riley and I am here for it.
Riley's t-shirt: "Dial it up to .... fourteen?"
Missed opportunity.
The face changer is gonna be so funny, reminds me of that one meme where an anime vtubers software glitched and it was fucking Walter white lmao
every time I hear about anything with a vtuber, I immediately think back to the time one outed themselves as a guy and instantly panicked because of how may people just dropped him.
That pixel screenshot app is a such a simple but genius idea
as someone who have to do several LLM integration demos for the last few months. I can tell you that those LLMs are sentient beings, they know when you are in an important demo and decided to "oh, this must be important to you, how about I screw up a bit. Oppsie!!!"
That camera bump look at the side, like that small video cut, reminded me of Bender (the robot from Futurama).
I never want a mobile device to call emergency services without my direct input. It will only clog up emergency responder lines with automatic calls from phones flying across cars or dropping onto concrete by accident or watch sensors inevitably malfunctioning.
That person going ham in the audience is propably the engineer who worked on it xD
6:59 I SWEAR HE NEVER REPEATED A QUICK BITS INTRO!??!!
Riley, I love the way you give the news headline.
It's really understanding and funny😂
Love ❤ u Riley!
You got me with the Bill O'Reilly title, the thumbnail didn't even load yet
the ability to transcribe a phone conversation is helpful I think and also dangerous lol
I'm just glad we finally have a weather app
THIS TITLE REMINDS ME OF THE VERY FIRST ERB (epic rap battle of history!)
JOHN LENNON…..
VERSUS!
BILLLLLL O’RIEEEELLYYY!!!
BEGIN!
7:22 hah, i like that their car has seemingly no windshield since their heads are sticking out, and also the rearview mirror facing the camera....
Apple Knights: HAHAHAHAHAHHA its not even working, what a joke
Google Knights: REMEMBER your holding the phone wrong.
Anyone else disappointed that “Photos of Taylor Swift flying in to the Twin Towers” is actually ‘photos of Taylor Swift piloting planes in to the Twin Towers’, and not Taylor herself doing a superman pose mid air?
A "fun" AI risk that I see no one talking about is how you can easily make it hide backdoor access, keylogger, scrapper, etc code in things if you give AI access to the project in any way.
Basically before you had to risk having a double agent/insider leaking stuff and getting caught. Now you have a tool that can simply delete all backdoor access and reapply it anywhere in the code.
"Oh but I can just read the code," yet ignore that one beta demo of the AI making a todo list for traveling and changing multiple things within a second.
“Like windows recall, but not stupid” - Noice
Grok 2's image gen isn't even developed by X AI though. It's just interfacing to Flux, which a completely unrelated company hosts.
Whoever designed that camera is clearly a huge Futurama fan 😂
riley, the quick bits intro was hilarious, i love you
1:18 my samsung gear s3 frontier has a battery life of over 50 hours and almost 40 days on maximum power saver
Tech neeeewwwwssss! My weekend conversations are going to be amazing! 🤓 ❤
A 60% working demo is always better than recorded 100% features
Top tier writing on this one! 💯
It's a little known fact, but cowboys in the Old West frequently wore t-shirts with a sound volume bar on the front. Great choice, Riley!
The "Ryzen Nein" must take off in Germany
"like Windoze recall, but not stupid" (2:52) Hooray. We all need more Not Stupid.
The Pixel Screenshot app seems like it should just be a feature in the regular photos app.
But as a less creepy version of Windows Recall, I can see it being very useful.
Meanwhile, I have never seen it fail like that on my crappie phone and crappie internet
