@AndrewWarner Just downloaded this to the iPhone and it actually seems like the most promising one I've used yet especially since the keyboard seems usable so far ... Still testing!

It's the little things in Android like this

Increasingly, Costco is celebrating itself.

Wild twist for a stock that everyone and their barber was telling you to buy just a few months ago.

Jensen Huang is out as NVIDIA CEO, effective immediately.

Good morning world!

Thanks for having us on KTLA! Full video & whisper demos below!

@SenorTzvi @Flighty That's the beauty of AI, you can give your brain a rest

[Rich DeMuro @richontech]

This is such a smart move by @Flighty. They added a new feature that tells you when to leave for the airport based on drive times and traffic, and alerts you if you need to leave sooner.

But here's the best part. You can factor in all the stuff you need to do along the way, like parking, returning a rental car, checking bags, or going to the lounge.

I've been doing this math on pen and paper for years. Love this feature. Especially helpful for people who don't travel that often, although they're probably not using Flighty in the first place.

@mvanhorn @Flighty My all-time record was arriving to the gate as they were calling the my boarding group number. Little too close for comfort, but it was sort of perfect.

[Rich DeMuro @richontech]

@mvanhorn @Flighty Best to sleep overnight at a nearby hotel if you really want to be on time for your flight

[Rich DeMuro @richontech]

What if you could whisper instead of talking out loud to type?

I checked out new AI-powered earbuds from @subtlecomputing that isolate your voice, even in a loud, crowded room.

You can basically whisper your thoughts and have them turned into text. Pretty cool technology, especially if you use voice typing as much as I do.

I think AI and podcast transcripts have ruined email for podcast hosts.

95% of my pitches now start with, “Hey, I heard you mention XYZ product on your show. Let me tell you about ZYX product.”

It’s crazy how many bots are scanning transcripts to generate these quasi personalized pitches. And I’m the one who has to sort through all this junk.

[Rich DeMuro @richontech]

One of my favorite things is seeing how many different ways a headline can describe Solvang without actually saying “Solvang.”

[Rich DeMuro @richontech]

Here's a browser extension that lets you right-click any image to check if it was made with AI.

There's also a paid option that automatically scans images and labels them as you scroll through social media. @pangram

Game changer

[Muse @Muse]

Works around the clock, and now on your wrist. Muse is now on Apple Watch and Wear OS ⌚️

[Rich DeMuro @richontech]

Brilliant!!!

[VCoolish @vcoolish]

Starting with a small one

[Rich DeMuro @richontech]

This might be one of the coolest toys I’ve tried lately. Loops Lab lets anyone become a DJ by placing collectible characters on a miniature stage. Each one adds drums, bass, melodies or vocals. No musical skills required! It’s a fun way to make music without staring at a screen. via @KTLAMorningNews
