Like so many folks in tech, he sees AI as a platform shift that will change the way we use computers.

Our guest on this episode of the GeekWire Podcast is Panos Panay, Amazon's senior vice president of Devices & Services, a longtime leader in the world of consumer technology. It has been one year since he started at Amazon, after his surprise departure from Microsoft, where he oversaw products including Surface and Windows. Panay's division at Amazon includes the Alexa voice assistant and Echo devices, but that's just the start. His purview also spans Kindle e-readers, Fire tablets, Zoox self-driving taxis, Eero wireless networking devices, Ring and Blink cameras, Fire TV devices, and Kuiper, the company's nascent satellite internet business. The focus this week is Kindle, with the Oct. 30 release of the Kindle Colorsoft, the first color device in Amazon's line of market-leading e-readers, selling for a premium price of $279.99. It's part of a new era for the Kindle business, driven in part by book-loving social media influencers and consumers looking for simplicity and focus in a world of non-stop smartphone alerts. We also talked about AI, including the generative AI summaries coming with the next-generation Kindle Scribe tablet, due out in December. Panay wasn't ready to dish on what's next for Alexa in conversational AI, but he made it clear that he's bullish on AI in general, and doesn't believe it's a passing fad.

 Joe discusses the problem with automatically forwarding mail in the era of DMARC and walks through an explanation from Kerio: - You have a hosted Kerio email account, with a domain of clientname.com - You have a forwarding rule configured to forward all email addressed to name@clientname.com to clientaddress@gmail.com - Gmail enforces a DMARC policy - Gmail sees the forwarded email as if they were coming from the original sender, e.g.: Facebook, PayPal, etc. etc. - But the emails are NOT coming from the mailservers of those senders (e.g. mail.facebook.com, mail.paypal.com – fake examples), they are actually coming from the Kerio mail server (mail.itekmail.com) - This triggers a failure of compliance with DMARC, since the sending mail server doesn't match the sending address. - Unfortunately there isn't much we can do about this, other than use the main account (name@clientname.com), setting it up on a mail client of your choice, to avoid this problem. - Joe and Jerry discuss Eero, and Joe explains the challenge of configuring an alternate subnet: - Eero ad automatically assigned 192.168.7.1 subnet - AV guy had static IPs manually assigned to two IR controllers - had to use Advanced settings to hangs subnet to 10.0.0.0 (10.0.1.0 not an option; annoying because that's a common Apple one so this must be a common issue) - tried to adjust starting IP to 10.0.0.1, subnet to 255.255.0.0, and ending IP to 10.0.1.254; didn't work - after updating, allowed me to select 10.0.0.0 range and change it to 10.0.1.0 range, which worked
