[Overview]

Explore Meta’s new smart glasses, Google’s offline dictation breakthrough, and the surprising ways AI is shaping our daily lives—plus, why cows now wear solar-powered smart collars.

Steven Scott and Shaun Preece dive into the latest tech stories with their trademark insight and humour. From Meta’s new Blayzer and Scriber smart glasses designed for all-day wear to Google’s AI Edge Eloquent dictation app on iOS, discover how wearable and voice tech is evolving.

They discuss Amazon ending support for pre-2012 Kindle devices and the worrying trend of tech companies rendering hardware obsolete, raising questions about e-waste and consumer rights. Dan Ackerman of Microcenter News shares survey insights on how Americans trust—and use—AI, from medical advice to problem solving.

The episode rounds off with Waymo’s self-driving cars identifying potholes for cities and a fascinating look at Halter’s solar-powered smart collars for managing cattle with virtual fences.
