While Brian frolics somewhere in the Pacific Northwest, Jason brings in cyber-sleuth Dave Bittner for a jam-packed episode covering everything from Gen X's slow descent into obscurity to furries, feds, and face-scanning your way into porn. The guys start with a salute to the late, great Tom Lehrer—a math nerd with a piano and zero tolerance for BS—before diving into the avalanche of cyber screwups plaguing today's digital circus.The biggest spill? The so-called “safe” dating app Tea just doxxed its entire user base—because who needs privacy when you've got bad Firebase settings from 2017? Meanwhile, teens are befriending chatbots, Microsoft is issuing pink slips via PowerPoint, and Meta might be training its AI on stolen porn. Add in farmers installing turnstiles in the Dolomites to keep influencers off their grass, age verification laws that Norman Reedus can bypass with a JPEG, and Tesla diners turning into 24/7 neighbor hellscapes, and yeah—it's just another week on the internet.If you're a Gen Xer feeling invisible, underpaid, and over it, congrats—you're not alone. This episode is a full buffet of schadenfreude, digital paranoia, and good old-fashioned grump. Pour a cup of whatever's not boiling, and tune in for the roast. Tom Lehrer would've approved.Sponsors:DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

"In a good or successful color photograph, the picture's definition or meaning will somehow arise through the use of color” "Photographs have always been convincing lies." -- Joel Sternfeld In this episode, Ward shares stories from his recent road trip to Saskatchewan, including a visit to a hometown dirt track race—a nostalgic return since his last visit in 1978. The conversation turns toward grassroots motorsports, photography at the races, and how families get deeply involved, even with kids racing $40,000 modified cars. Antonio reflects on settling into life in Nebraska, exploring his surroundings, and using the Fuji X-Half camera as a spontaneous photo companion. He shares how the small, JPEG-only camera has helped him rediscover simple photographic joy, especially during a recent photo class with teens. The heart of the episode focuses on photographer Joel Sternfeld. Antonio and Ward explore Sternfeld's thoughtful approach to color, how his emotional state influenced his editing choices, and the meticulous process behind his transition from 35mm to large-format 8x10 photography. They dig into Nags Head, his lesser-known 1975 series that unexpectedly triggered vivid memories for Antonio from his childhood summers in Provincetown, MA—despite being shot in North Carolina. The conversation also covers American Prospects, Sternfeld's iconic work that blends subdued color palettes with a reflective look at American culture. Ward reflects on how Sternfeld's careful use of color theory and restrained composition creates a sense of presence and emotional clarity rarely found in contemporary work.   YouTube - Joel Sternfeld and Geoffrey Batchen YouTube - ARTIST TALKS - JOEL STERNFELD - PARIS PHOTO 2019   Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

#584 In this episode of the podcast, I explore the idea that your photos are not broken just because they aren't technically perfect or heavily edited. I share my own experiences as a photographer, reflecting on how the rise of digital editing and AI has made many of us feel like every photo needs to be “fixed” to be worth keeping or sharing. I encourage you to let go of those expectations and to rediscover what made you pick up a camera in the first place—whether it was to slow down, see the world differently, or simply enjoy making images.KEY TOPICS COVEREDThe Pressure of Perfection and Editing in Modern Photography - Raymond discusses how digital tools, social media, and AI have shifted expectations toward perfection. He challenges the presumption that photos must always be edited, and recalls the joy of simple, unedited film photography. The key takeaway is to let go of perfection and rediscover the fun in photography.Imperfection as Art and Authenticity - The episode illustrates, with anecdotes from Raymond's wedding photography, the value of candid moments (like a flower girl picking her nose), emphasizing that these “flaws” make photos memorable and human. He connects this to the broader theme of authenticity, suggesting that imperfection is what sets human-made images apart from AI-generated ones.Practical Approach: Enjoyment and Mindset Shift (Plork) - Raymond introduces “plork” (play + work). He encourages listeners to shoot for enjoyment, intentionally practicing and experimenting with their cameras rather than working only to “fix” images later. Actionable advice includes shooting JPEGs, skipping editing, and focusing on moments that feel right rather than those that look perfect.IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS & CONCEPTSPlork: A blend of play and work, meaning practicing a craft with a playful, no-pressure attitude. In photography, “plorking” means shooting for enjoyment while still improving your skills—the core mindset Raymond urges listeners to adopt.DISCUSSION & REFLECTION QUESTIONSWhen do you feel most pressure to edit your photos, and how does it affect your enjoyment of photography?Can you think of a photo you love because of, not in spite of, its imperfections? Why does it resonate with you?What habits can you adopt to “plork” more during your photography sessions?RESOURCES:Check out the Headway App for book summaries - https://makeheadway.com/Book: "The Creative Act" by Rick RubinBook: "The Dude and the Zen Master" by Jeff BridgesSign up for your free CloudSpot Account today at www.DeliverPhotos.comConnect with Raymond!

Advertising Best Practices for SEO and Brand Monetization: 5 Ms of Advertising Explained with SEO Expert, Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS⁠⁠ This extensive Clubhouse plus audio offers a comprehensive guide to advertising best practices for brands, emphasizing monetization and SEO. Favour introduces the "five M's" of advertising: media, measurement, message, mission, and money, explaining how each element is crucial for business growth and brand building. The discussion highlights the importance of intentional content creation, leveraging organic reach before paid advertising, and understanding the customer journey from awareness to conversion. Practical advice includes utilizing platforms like podcasts for deeper connections, optimizing content for search engines, and making informed decisions based on data analytics rather than solely focusing on immediate sales.FAQsWhat are the "Five M's" of advertising and how do they work with the "P's" of marketing?The Five M's of advertising are: Media, Measurement, Message, Mission, and Money. These M's are crucial for building a successful business and brand. They work in conjunction with the traditional "P's" of marketing (Product, Price, Place, Promotion, and sometimes People, Process, Physical Evidence). While the P's define your marketing strategy, the M's provide a framework for executing effective advertising. Favour emphasizes the importance of aligning these two frameworks, asking "how do you get these two to work together hand in hand?" Essentially, the "P's" help define what you're offering and how you're positioning it, while the "M's" guide how you effectively communicate and monetize that offering through advertising.Why is having a "Message" that resonates with your audience so important in advertising, and how does timing play a role?The "Message" is highlighted as a core element. It's not just about having a product, but about sending a message that truly resonates with the target audience at the right time. An effective message helps solve a problem for the audience. The speaker uses the analogy of offering a jacket when someone is looking for a tank top – it's the right message at the wrong time, making it ineffective.How does "Media" function as the "currency" of advertising, and what are some examples?"Media" is described as the "red carpet" of advertising and the "currency of your advertising." Without media, you cannot run ads. This refers to the various platforms and file types through which your advertising content is delivered. Examples include social media platforms (Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, Pinterest, Instagram), billboards, TV, radio, and even older formats like newspapers and magazines. Regardless of the platform or era, the content (video, audio, text, image) needs to be uploaded as a "media file" (MP3, MP4, MOV, PNG, JPEG, TXT). The compelling nature of this media (whether it's "catchy" or "hooking") directly impacts its effectiveness in engaging an audience.Digital Marketing Resources:>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Latest blogs on SEO optimization and Online Marketing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book your Complimentary SEO Discovery Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book Paid Marketing Consultation Call⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠>> ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to We Don't PLAY Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Brands We Love and Support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Loving Me Beauty | Buy Vegan-based Luxury Products⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Unlock your future in real estate—get certified in Ghana today!⁠

#580 In Today's Episode of the podcast I chat with YOU as I tackle listener-submitted questions for our monthly Photo Q&A session. We cover a variety of challenges that many beginner photographers run into—from understanding the difference between RAW and JPEG files, managing noise in corporate event shots, to building a strong portfolio through strategic “model calls.” I'll also share practical insights on why your photos might look different across devices or editing programs, when to use settings like aperture priority or manual mode, and how to set up and communicate a successful portfolio shoot. Plus, we'll get into deeper topics like how to price your work as a new photographer and whether AI editing tools are changing the value of getting things right in-camera. KEY TOPICS COVEREDRAW vs. JPEG & Display Differences - Raymond explains why photos often appear different on camera screens or phones compared to Lightroom. He outlines the technical reasons, including how cameras display a JPEG preview even for RAW shots, and how monitor quality and calibration affect perceived color and contrast. He demystifies RAW editing and encourages beginners to experiment with JPEGs if extensive editing isn't required.Shooting Busy Events & Managing Noise - Responding to a question on noisy corporate event shots, Hatfield stresses the relationship between noise, ISO, and light quality. He recommends using manual mode for full ISO control and explains the importance of understanding light “quality vs. quantity” rather than relying solely on semi-automatic modes like aperture priority.Model Calls & Portfolio Building - Practical guidance is given for running a “model call” to expand one's portfolio. Raymond highlights where and how to recruit volunteer models (or clients), setting clear expectations, the value exchange, and strategies to ensure you're showcasing desired styles or filling portfolio gaps.IMPORTANT DEFINITIONS & CONCEPTSRAW (Image Format): An unprocessed file that retains all data captured, offering maximum flexibility for editing, though often appearing flat until processed.Model Call: A public invitation (often via social media) for volunteers to participate in portfolio shoots, typically in exchange for free or discounted images.DISCUSSION & REFLECTION QUESTIONSConsidering your current portfolio, what “gaps” could you fill with targeted model calls?How does understanding RAW vs. JPEG workflows shape your approach to in-camera settings and post-processing?Reflect on your pricing strategy: What personal factors (time, opportunity cost) might you consider before setting rates?Sign up for your free CloudSpot Account today at www.DeliverPhotos.comConnect with Raymond!

Brett Clark is Director Global Sales at Blackshark. Blackshark is an incredible company. They are responsible for the global 3D world of Microsoft Flight Simulator. Now they have a system called ORCA™ HUNTR. This is a no-code environment enabling users—with little to no coding or AI background—to train, test, and deploy object detection and classification models on RGB imagery, including satellite, aerial, drone, or even JPEG/video frames. It also offers real-time feedback during training: as you label (“scribble” with a crayon-like brush), it immediately shows model results and entropy metrics, guiding where more data is needed. Listen in for an example of how this system was put into action for the #LAFires response. They used it to detect 300 buildings the county was unaware of. This matters for clean up after fires, because there is significantly more debris and material movement to plan for. Brett was a supremely cool dude. I have interviewed some of the finest operators in sales in geospatial on this podcast. Brett is clearly the best so far.

Shaya was born and raised in Washington State, became a believer as a young child and chose to be water baptized at age 11. She became interested in the Jewish roots of her faith during her undergraduate studies and then became further acquainted with them while in grad school at Eastman School, when she was invited to join a Messianic Passover seder. Shortly after that, Shaya felt God called her to become a part of the local Messianic congregation in Rochester, where she has been for over 12 years. Over that time, Shaya has served as a cantor, dance leader, occasional worship leader, kiddish (hospitality) coordinator, and a member of many teams and outreaches.

Adobe mejora tu cámara:  App gratuita con inteligencia artificial para iPhone con IA, controles manuales y fotos RAW de alta calidad   Por Félix Riaño @LocutorCo  Adobe acaba de presentar una app experimental que transforma el modo en que usamos la cámara del iPhone. Se llama Project Indigo, y ya está disponible gratis en la App Store. Detrás del desarrollo están los mismos ingenieros que crearon la cámara de los teléfonos Pixel de Google. La promesa es clara: ofrecer una experiencia de captura con aspecto profesional, basada en inteligencia artificial, procesamiento por ráfagas y controles manuales. ¿Puede una app gratuita reemplazar la cámara nativa del iPhone y convertirse en la favorita de quienes aman la fotografía móvil?  Project Indigo no toma una sola foto: toma hasta 32 imágenes en ráfaga, las alinea y las fusiona para crear una sola más precisa, con menos ruido, mejor rango dinámico y más detalle. Lo más impresionante es que lo hace con un enfoque natural, evitando los efectos exagerados que muchos usuarios detestan. Está disponible desde el iPhone 12 Pro y en todos los modelos del iPhone 14 en adelante, aunque Adobe recomienda usarlo con un iPhone 15 Pro o superior. No necesitas tener cuenta de Adobe ni iniciar sesión, lo cual la hace ideal para experimentar sin compromiso. Además, es compatible con fotos RAW y JPEG. Y si usas Lightroom, puedes enviar tus fotos directamente desde Indigo para editarlas.  Pero no todo es perfecto: Pierdes funciones nativas como Live Photos, modo retrato y estilos fotográficos.   El cerebro detrás de Indigo es Marc Levoy, quien dejó Google en 2020 para unirse a Adobe con el objetivo de crear una “app de cámara universal”. Junto a él está Florian Kainz, también ex Google y experto en procesamiento de imagen. Ambos fueron clave en los avances del Pixel, que convirtió a la cámara de Google en un referente. Con Indigo buscan ir más allá: crear fotos que parezcan tomadas con cámaras réflex, sin dejar de aprovechar el poder del iPhone. Uno de sus logros técnicos es que el obturador no tiene retardo: la app ya está grabando imágenes RAW mientras estás encuadrando, así que cuando presionas el botón, ya tiene lista la mejor toma. Ideal para capturar momentos exactos como un perro en movimiento o una pelota entrando en el arco.  Muchos fotógrafos no confían en las cámaras del celular porque el software tiende a exagerar la imagen. Colores saturados, sombras aplastadas, reflejos molestos y detalles perdidos por la compresión digital. Apple ha hecho mejoras, pero su app de cámara sigue sin ofrecer controles manuales completos. Tampoco permite disparar con exposición prolongada real ni ajustar el número de imágenes por ráfaga. Project Indigo responde a esa necesidad con un enfoque híbrido: mantiene la sencillez del teléfono, pero entrega resultados dignos de una cámara avanzada. En lugar de aplicar filtros o IA que "inventan" detalles, Indigo capta datos reales desde el sensor y los combina para mejorar la nitidez. Incluso permite usar el movimiento natural de la mano como técnica para captar más perspectiva y obtener fotos más detalladas, algo conocido como "multi-frame super-resolution".  Project Indigo ya puede descargarse gratis y viene con funciones únicas que la distinguen de otras apps. Por ejemplo, permite hacer fotos en condiciones de luz muy baja sin necesidad de trípode, gracias a la combinación de 32 cuadros tomados en segundos. También incluye un botón dedicado para fotos de larga exposición, que simula el efecto de obturación prolongada en cámaras réflex: perfecto para capturar cascadas, luces en movimiento o trazos de luz en la noche. Otra función prometedora es la eliminación de reflejos con IA, ideal para fotos detrás de vitrinas o cristales. Y si te gusta editar, las fotos en RAW pueden abrirse directamente en Lightroom con compatibilidad total con los perfiles de color de Adobe. Aunque aún no tiene modo retrato ni video, ya se están desarrollando esas funciones, junto con bracketing de exposición y enfoque. La app también actúa como plataforma de pruebas para futuras funciones de Photoshop y Lightroom. Además, Adobe ya confirmó que la versión para Android “va a llegar seguro”.  Las imágenes tomadas con Indigo pueden verse en calidad HDR en una galería oficial alojada en Adobe Lightroom. Eso sí: la visualización óptima requiere una pantalla compatible y usar Google Chrome. Safari puede no mostrar correctamente los colores ni los brillos. Otra novedad técnica es el demosaico avanzado, que reconstruye los colores a partir del sensor de forma más precisa que otras apps. Indigo también ajusta el tono y el color basándose en lo que hay en la escena: sabe cuándo hay una persona en primer plano o cuándo estás fotografiando un cielo al atardecer. En las pruebas realizadas por medios como PetaPixel y CNET, se destacó que el zoom digital de Indigo supera al del iPhone al no inventar píxeles, sino construir la imagen con varias tomas desde ángulos apenas distintos. Además, la app permite ajustar la cantidad de cuadros por ráfaga, algo que no se ve en otras herramientas similares. Según Adobe, este es solo el comienzo: planean integrar más funciones creativas y fortalecer la app con la ayuda de los comentarios de quienes ya están probándola.  Project Indigo es una app gratuita de Adobe que convierte tu iPhone en una cámara avanzada con controles manuales, procesamiento inteligente y compatibilidad con RAW. Está pensada para quienes aman la fotografía, pero también para curiosos que quieran probar una nueva forma de tomar fotos. Descárgala, prueba sus funciones y cuéntanos tu experiencia.

Mastering Book Cover Design for Amazon & Kindle: A Practical Guide. In the crowded world of self-publishing, your book cover is more than just a pretty picture—it's your first impression, your marketing powerhouse, and the visual hook that can make or break a sale. Whether you're publishing a paperback on Amazon or a Kindle eBook, designing an effective cover is essential. Here's how to make sure yours stands out in the crowded Amazon marketplace. Why Your Book Cover Matters You've heard the saying, “Don't judge a book by its cover,” but let's be honest: readers absolutely do. On Amazon and Kindle, your cover shows up as a thumbnail alongside hundreds of others. A compelling design can make readers stop scrolling and click—while a dull or unprofessional one may get overlooked entirely. Key Differences: Kindle eBook vs. Paperback Cover Before you begin designing, understand the format you're creating for:Kindle eBooks: Require only a front cover. It should be optimized for digital screens and look good at small sizes (thumbnail view).Paperback Books (KDP Print): Require a full cover including front, back, and spine. You'll need to factor in the trim size, page count, and bleed areas.Amazon provides a Cover Calculator & Template Generator for paperbacks:https://kdp.amazon.com/cover-calculator Design Specs for Amazon & Kindle Covers Kindle eBook Cover Requirements:Dimensions: Ideal ratio is 1.6:1 (e.g., 1600 x 2560 pixels).Minimum size: 1000 pixels on the shortest side.Maximum file size: 50MB.File type: JPEG or TIFF.Color: RGB only.Paperback Cover Requirements (KDP Print):File type: PDF for print.Resolution: 300 DPI.Color: CMYK.Bleed: Typically 0.125" on all sides.Spine width: Depends on page count and paper type.Design Principles That Sell 1. Know Your Genre Each genre has visual cues. Romance uses soft, emotional imagery. Thrillers often use dark tones and bold fonts. Non-fiction covers tend to be cleaner and typography-driven. Look at the top 10 books in your category for inspiration. 2. Typography is CrucialUse no more than two fonts.Title should be readable at thumbnail size.Avoid script or decorative fonts unless genre-appropriate.Author name can be smaller but still legible.3. High-Quality Images Avoid using pixelated or stocky-looking images. Invest in high-resolution assets or create custom illustrations/photos. Sites like Unsplash (free) or Shutterstock (premium) are great sources. 4. Balance and Hierarchy Design with clear visual hierarchy:Title firstSubtitle second (if applicable)Author name thirdLeave breathing space. Don't overcrowd. 5. Thumbnail Test Shrink your design to 100 x 160 px. Can you still read the title? Is it still eye-catching? This is how it will appear in Amazon search results. Tools for Designing Book Covers For DIY Authors:Canva (Free & Pro): User-friendly with KDP templates.BookBrush: Designed for authors, with genre templates.Adobe Express: Quick designs with good typography options.For Professional Designers:Adobe Photoshop or InDesign: Full control for advanced design and print-ready files.Affinity Publisher: A powerful InDesign alternative.Using Amazon KDP Cover Creator (Optional) If you're not comfortable with design tools, Amazon's built-in Cover Creator is simple and free. It has templates, font controls, and lets you preview in 3D. However, it's limited in customization, so it's best for basic layouts. Avoid These Common MistakesUsing low-res images or blurry graphicsCentering everything by defaultOveruse of effects like drop shadows or bevelsInconsistent visual tone with the genreMisaligned spine elements on paperbacksIgnoring bleed and trim linesPro Tip: Hire a Designer If You Can A professionally designed cover can significantly boost your credibility and sales. If you're serious about publishing, consider hiring a freelance designer from platforms like Reedsy, 99designs, or Upwork. Always provide your book's genre, blurb, tone, and any visual references you like. Final Thoughts Your book cover is a visual handshake with your reader. On Amazon and Kindle, it's your billboard, brand, and storefront rolled into one. Invest time and care into it. With the right tools, creative direction, and an understanding of what sells, you can design a cover that attracts, engages, and converts browsers into buyers.

Astrophiz 215: Dr Ian Musgrave's June SkyGuide Summary: Mars close to thin crescent moon. Occultation of Antares behind the moon in the early evening sky. The moon comes close to some of the bright planets. … and Mars is close to the moon again at the end of the month. Moon Phases: June 3 ~ 1st Quarter Moon, and another time to catch the ‘Lunar X' late in the night, about 11pm for Australian Eastern states. 10:30 for central states and 9pm in the West. Lunar X Tip: take an image each 1/2 hour from moonrise. June 7 ~ Apogee, furthest from earth June 11 ~ Full Moon June 19 ~ Last Quarter Moon ~ ideal for stargazing June 23 ~ Perigee, closest to earth June 25 ~ New Moon ~ ideal for stargazing June 21 ~ Solstice: shortest day in Southern Hemisphere. longest day in Northern Hemisphere Evening Skies: Jupiter is lost into the twilight Mercury returns to evening skies mid-month, on the 27th it's 3°from the moon an hour after sunset, and will continue to be excellent until mid-July. Mars is low in the NW evening skies, and is still readily visible T Coronae Borealis is visible in late evening skies and still has not ‘Gone Nova' so the challenge is still … to capture a Nova before and after it blows! This Nova iswell ‘overdue' so all eyes are on it! Tuesday 10 June ~ The Occultation of Antares by the Moon is easily seen in binoculars and telescopes (for times, check Ian's Astroblogger website) Also June is a great opportunity to see The Dark Emu in the south, the Southern Cross and the magnificent globular cluster Omega Centauri is also at it's highest in the south. Morning Skies: Venus is furthest from the sun on 1 June, and is a half-moon shape in telescopes, and beside the crescent moon on 22 June Saturn is climbing higher in the morning sky, Scorpius is a feature in the dark morning sky in the east Saggitarius and the Heart of the Milky Way are also rising, a good opportunity to catch the Triffid and Lagoon nebulas in Saggitarius. Ian's 'Tangent' Ian discusses long-lived aspects of Indigenous astronomy like The Eagle, Stingray and Dark Emu, and how Western constellation names have changed over time. eg Argo was declared obsolete in 1930. Ian's Astrophotography Challenges: 1. Capture The Occultation of Antares on June 10th (almost full moon) 2. Then on a dark night with no moon, have a go at The Dark Emu, with your mobile phone/DSLR/camera, conveniently at 8pm in the south near Scorpius, the Pointers and the Southern Cross. Tips: Use your device's highest ISO (ASA) Under urban skies, take 10 x1second exposures, and stack them using a free stacking program or app. Under dark skies, you can take longer exposures If stacking in RAW, do a ‘dark frame' subtraction If stacking in JPEG, don't use dark frame subtraction.

"The limitations of photography are in yourself, for what we see is only what we are." -- Ernst Haas   "A photographic portrait is a picture of someone who knows he is being photographed." -- Richard Avedon   In this episode, Ward opens with a deep dive into his Lightroom library, explaining how “hunting” for decisive moments differs from “fishing” for happy accidents—and proving the point with a newly-found two-way-mirror shot in Japan that almost became digital landfill. The chat drifts into portrait philosophy via Richard Avedon, landing on the idea that real power often comes from stripping a set-up down to tripod, subject, and nerve.   Next up is Fuji's just-announced X-Half.  Antonio admits he's already on the preorder list, while Ward likes the film-advance lever but winces at the price.  The boys agree its JPEG-only, half-frame design is less a beginner's toy than a deliberate hand-cuff for photographers who enjoy working inside tight creative fences—much like the old Fuji GA645 or Antonio's beloved X-Pro3 .   Antonio contemplates using his medium format Fuji for big-sensor portraits once he touches down in Nebraska, while Ward packs a Rolleicord TLR for some square-format rodeo portraits. On the lo-fi end, Antonio bolts a recycled disposable-camera lens onto his tiny X-M5, declaring that “expectations set to fun” is a perfectly valid image-quality setting for his upcoming road trip.   The episode rounds out with a vintage-photo detour: Antonio uncovers a century-old log-cabin print, and Ward feeds it to ChatGPT, which promptly pinpoints its location and time period. Maybe. That sparks a brainstorm on turning unlabeled family prints into a themed zine instead of consigning them to attic oblivion or the trash.     Subscribe to our Substack Newsletter Help out the show by buying us a coffee!

Hey here's a segment of us trying to figure out tech while sounding old lol Headlines with the death of Howard The Duck, damnit Sports with what Terry Bradshaw really thinks about the Steelers pursuing Aaron Rodgers

This week's EYE ON NPI is renowned world-wide, it's onsemi's ARX383CS 1/8-inch 0.3 Mp Global Shutter CMOS Digital Image Sensor (https://www.digikey.com/short/45p5vfvr), a tiny pick-and-placeable vision sensor that is perfect for your next AI or robotics - or AI robotics - product! With the global shutter, you'll be able to get clear and complete photos each time, no matter your lighting and subject speed. We stock low-cost simple camera sensors like the OV5640 at the Adafruit shop (https://www.adafruit.com/product/5839) these cameras can do color, up to 720p or greater, and can even do internal JPEG compression before piping the image out of an 8-bit parallel interface. One thing that you'll quickly realized about these cameras is that they, like almost all cameras used for basic photography are rolling-shutter type. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_shutter) That means the sensor reads each individual pixel in a row before moving to the next column, perfectly fine as long as the thing you're photographing is moving slowly compared to the speed of the sensor iterator. For robotics vision projects, this often gives smeared or blurry images, and since time = money and thus you need to run the motor as fast as possible. For example, our SM481 pick and place (https://www.hanwha-pm.com/en-mo/product/detail.asp?product_info_id=189&cate_id=50) can do up to 40,000 components per hour, each one with vision inspection: that's 10 a second! Whether you are building the fastest Rubik's-cube solver (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59qgzzSD1tk) or a license plate reader (https://www.digikey.com/short/45p5vfvr) getting crisp-clear full-frame images is essential to make sure you get the best image. The ARX383CS (https://www.digikey.com/short/45p5vfvr) is sold as a chip-scale-package, meant for pick and placing directly onto a PCB or FPC. It'll need various power supplies and clock signal, as well as configuration over I2C and of course a lens and lighting. Once set up, images can be captured and sent over DSI/MIPI single-lane, at VGA 640x480 up to 120 FPS or quarter-VGA 320x240 up to 245 FPS. The available datasheet doesn't have all the details, you'll need to contact onsemi to sign an NDA for the full specifications. onsemi has also developed a read-to-go plug-in camera module that you can quickly integrate called the PRISM1M-ARX383CSSM130110-GEVB (https://www.onsemi.com/design/evaluation-board/PRISM1M-ARX383CSSM130110-GEVB) which is not in stock right now at DigiKey yet (https://www.digikey.com/short/zfm5d7tj) but we're sure that if you need it you can try contacting DigiKey's sales reps and they'll be able to get you samples and quantity pricing. If you don't mind a bulkier eval board, the ARX383CSSM28SMKAH3-GEVB (https://www.digikey.com/short/78p2c3dq) is available immediately for purchase. If you've needed to add fast video or photography to your next product, the onsemi ARX383CS 1/8-inch 0.3 Mp Global Shutter CMOS Digital Image Sensor (https://www.digikey.com/short/45p5vfvr) is an excellent way to add a VGA global-shutter sensor with 125 FPS VGA-resolution output and I2C control. Best of all DigiKey has tons in stock for immediate shipment, book today and they'll send you as many as you want in the blink of an eye so you can start getting high speed video integrated by tomorrow afternoon.

Send us a textJeff McMurtrie returns to our podcast with exciting news about his meticulously crafted wilderness maps that have transformed how paddlers experience Ontario's backcountry. Having spent over 700 days exploring these waterways, Jeff brings unparalleled expertise to his cartography – revealing hidden gems that most travelers miss and preventing potentially frustrating navigational errors.The newest additions to his collection include updated Killarney and French River maps with 50% more detail, innovative portage elevation profiles, and an extensive catalog of points of interest. Perhaps most exciting is the announcement of a refreshed Temagami map coming this summer and a new East French River map that completes the coverage from Georgian Bay to Lake Nipissing when combined with his other maps.What makes these maps special goes beyond their accuracy. Jeff's thoughtful design elements – like showing creek width proportional to reality and using distinctive "penciled in" styling for extremely challenging routes – reflect his deep understanding of what paddlers actually need on the water. The maps document everything from waterfalls and swimming holes to historic sites and spring water sources, creating what Jeff calls "that extra dimension" that transforms a good trip into an unforgettable one.Each physical map purchase includes digital versions in five different formats (high-resolution JPEG, Avenza Maps with GPS functionality, Garmin GPS, Google Earth 3D, and GeoTIFF), ensuring paddlers can use them however best suits their style. Jeff shares that user feedback has been invaluable in refining these resources – from identifying changed conditions to suggesting new features that improve usability.Whether you're planning your first backcountry trip or your fiftieth, these maps provide both essential navigation tools and unexpected discoveries.

The 16:9 PODCAST IS SPONSORED BY SCREENFEED – DIGITAL SIGNAGE CONTENT Every so often I'll get a call or email from an industry friend asking me about a software company called Zynchro, because they were in the mix, or the incumbent, on some sort of deal that was in play. Yes, I'd say. I've heard of them. But that was about it. Well, that's changed, as I had a good chat recently with Jose Behar, one of the two brothers who founded the company some 30 years ago. Zynchro has very quietly built up a nice book of business, mostly in the United States, with SaaS software marketed on the basis of flexibility, rock-solid reliability and low annual costs. By its own admission, the Dallas-based company operates very quietly. But the installed base is north of 50,000 devices, many of them involving a couple of giant global brands. Like most whale clients, Zynchro can't quite say who those are ... but have a listen, and it becomes fairly obvious. Subscribe from wherever you pick up new podcasts. TRANSCRIPT Jose, thank you for joining me. I have heard about Zynchro, but we've never met, at least, I don't think so, and while I've heard about the company, I don't know a lot about it, and you're one of those companies that seems to be very active, quite successful, but kinda an old World War II submarine. You're running silent and deep.  Jose Behar: Yes, we were silent for a long time. Even when my brother and I started a company 30 years ago, we started doing multimedia and CGI animation, and one of our ways to do business was to keep networking, being a little bit silent on the media, but having a lot of reputation among client to client, mouth to mouth.  So if I bumped into you in an elevator, and I'm not in this business and asked, oh, what do you do? What does your company do? What would you tell them?  Jose Behar: Zynchro is a digital signage platform SaaS, software as a service. So, our clients can use Zynchro for different kinds of applications and in a lot of vertical markets. Zynchro is not only a content manager. Maybe a lot of our clients, or the people that hear about us, look at us as content managers, but we have different modules. We now have four modules, and we are developing two more for health monitoring for all the players in the network. Also, analytics, all kinds of different analytics for interactive and non-interactive presentations. Of course, the content management, and we also have the campaign module. The campaign module is the monetizing area.  One of our biggest clients is one the biggest retailers in the market. They are using this campaign module, and you can see different media and articles saying that they are making billions of dollars using their digital signage. and now all the stores and all their home office and some distribution centers are using our software to communicate and to control their digital signage.  So the campaign manager is basically enabling a retail media network? Jose Behar: That's right. The idea is creating a TV network where our clients can sell their advertising spaces, and they can have all the inventory and all the reports that they need in order to show their clients all the information.  There are a hell of a lot of companies out there that do what you do. You've been at it for a very long time, three decades. What is it about what you do that differentiates it from the scores of other companies who have a pretty similar offer. Everybody has their unique aspects to it, but what is it about yours? Jose Behar: We don't use other hardware or software APIs. For example, one of the players that we use is BrightSign, and we know all the insights of the player. We are able to be a standalone. We don't need their software to be useful.  Another thing is that we are the owners of the intellectual property, and we develop everything completely. So our clients are able to ask us for different kinds of customizations, all kinds of customizations we have done with all of our clients, and connect directly to their systems or allow different kinds of peripherals. For example, right now, we were selected by Sony Semiconductor to integrate their AI camera Aitrios into our software as almost a plug and play. We are now the only software that can manage that and use that camera in digital signage without any additional development.  So for BrightSign and for Sony as well, when you talk about not really relying on APIs and things like that, do you have your own specific operating system instead of working with BrightSign OS, or how does all that work?  Jose Behar: In the case of BrightSign, we don't have an operating system because they have their own, but we can control the player without using almost any of their APIs, and only using their application, that is, an operating system. We are almost ready in about four to six weeks to release a new version for Android. So we have a partnership with C Labs, the players that are based here in Dallas too, and in that case, we are more into the players. So we work in that sense more like an operating system, and we can control and do more things with that kind of open architecture instead of a closed architecture like BrightSign. Is that a client, ask or demand that they want as much extraneous stuff and other hooks stripped out of it so that it's clean and therefore less of a risk security and stability wise?  Jose Behar: Talking about stability and security, we have been proven to be the most robust and secure platform. That's why this client, that is one of the biggest retailers, but other clients that we have that are almost the same size don't have any issues regarding security or stability. They have even been looking for other platforms for redundancy, because in a critical income business like that, they can have another option in case something happens to Zynchro but Zynchro has been proving that it is more capable and it can show more data and more information to the clients than any other platform. Even showing and controlling the displays, the TV with serial commands, all that kind of stuff we can do, and of course, again, because of our capability of customization, we can add or remove any of the functionalities that our clients are asking for. Until the pandemic, we had a client, the biggest one in Entertainment Parks, and they asked us to have a special administrator. So nobody can mess with the imaging, nobody can mess with the pictures or with the animations, because for them it's their brand. So they used our server for all the information in the resorts, in convention centers, and even transportation. All the bus transportation, they had connected Zynchro to their main source for all the bus routes, and if the buses were coming in time or not, connecting the buses in real time.  One of our other clients, the Central Ohio Transport Authority, has connected our system to their own system where at the bus terminals and bus stations, they can show the different routes and if the bus is coming on time or not with GPS on the buses. So that's one of the biggest benefits. The other, I think the greatest benefit here is also our pricing, which is very competitive.  At this moment, looking at the market, now we are, if not the least expensive, one of the less expensive in the market because we want to have long-term relationships, not only one-shot deals.  The challenge, of course, with competing somewhat on price is how do you make money?  If you're not charging all that much per software license, part of it's obviously about scale, but how do you address that? Jose Behar: Two main things. One, as we are the owners, and we developed this 18 years ago. In the beginning, it was for the Windows platform. We are constantly creating new upgrades and updates in order to be more efficient and for the software to be more efficient as our operation to be most efficient and the second one is that the clients like the way we do support.  In the market, one of the most costly areas is support. So what we do is to reduce the support infrastructure and the support area by creating well-tested software. And being almost perfectionist of course, we are going to have a problem some time and we are going to have some  problems. But with our software, we try to have a quality assurance and a testing phase that may be longer than any other software. But with that, we can offer almost a support free platform: a platform that is very easy to use and also so robust that the client needs almost no support.  We are one of the only ones that don't have 24/7 support. We have Monday to Friday, 9-5 support with a ticket system and that's it and even with worldwide clients, it has worked pretty well, so reducing that cost in support is one of the main things that we have achieved.  You've understandably danced around the names and are only able to describe some of your larger clients. I get that the bigger the clients, the harder it is for them to give permission to talk about them and the last thing you wanna do is get on their bad side about doing that sort of thing.  But can you give me some sort of sense of scale of the footprint of your installed base?  Jose Behar: Right now, we are managing around 50,000 players in our network.  50,000?  Jose Behar: Yeah, and we're still growing. We are at different gas stations. One of the clients that I can mention is in Canada, Lexus-Toyota dealers. All the Lexus-Toyota dealers in Canada are using Zynchro for the different areas like the waiting room or the service parts and that kind of stuff. One of the clients that I can mention in order for you to see the different kinds of verticals is The Omnia nightclub at the Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. So they are using our software for this nightclub. But also all the big screens that you can see from the Vegas strip, talking about Omnia, are managed by Zynchro. So you're all over the place. I mean nightclubs and theme parks and big mass merch retailers, and auto dealers. Do you have a vertical market that you focus on, or is it kinda more of a generalist offer?  Jose Behar: Basically, right now, we are focusing on retail and hospitality, because principally, the monetizing tool is a tool that helps them a lot for self-pay projects or even generating a lot of income. But as I always say to my new clients or prospects, if you are uploading an x-ray or you are uploading a JPEG with coffee, for us, it's only a picture, it's only a file, and the same with videos. So, the only thing that we need from the client is the specific requirements in order to show them how to use Zynchro, logistically speaking.  We have a lot of functionalities, like Smart Groups. With the Smart Groups functionality, you can program Zynchro and all the content based on logical variables. So with that,, you can upload only content with tags and automatically Zynchro is going to program the content depending on your programming. For example, with distribution centers, the administrator of the distribution center can upload images with the tag “distribution center one”, and automatically Zynchro is going to deploy all the images. In that sense, talking about administration, we have unlimited users, so those users can be organized by a matrix with different kinds of permissions. So you can even have your advertising agency only with the permission to upload content, or you can have the marketing director only to approve content, different kinds of directors only to see reports in real time, or a full administrator that can do everything on the platform.  In that sense, we have clients that use our content management services because they don't have the personnel to do it, so the advertising agencies and the headquarters send us all the content. Or we have other types of clients that have a specialist area where they manage all the content with their clients and sell the spaces. What you offer is on a SaaS basis, right?  Jose Behar: Yeah, we are SaaS based, but with an annual fee.  With your larger clients, some of these “whale accounts”, are they also doing SaaS, or do you have a variation of an on-premise for them?  Jose Behar: No. Because with that, we can be responsible for everything that is happening. We have experienced a lot of different issues in the past with having installed the server on premises where sometimes nobody takes the responsibility of any of the issues or it goes from the hardware to the server, software to the hardware, and with infinite meetings. We prefer to take all the responsibility, and when we have an issue, it's better and easier to detect where the issue is.  For your larger clients, I suspect that almost every week, there's some competing company trying to work their way into your deal. Basically, take you out. How do you kind of address that with your clients?  Jose Behar: Being the best, and always trying to do our best work solving their issues. One of the things that all our clients appreciate about us is that, as we are responsible for the whole network, we are able with our system to detect a lot of different issues, even with different kinds of hardwares, so our platform also can send automatic alerts via sms or emails, and we have developed different kinds of automated detecting and self-correcting functionalities.  So each day, with every upgrade, we have fewer and fewer issues and our team that is in charge of detecting the different kinds of problems or issues is very specialized, and we have a long time doing this, so we have detected almost all the problems, and 90% of the problems in our experience are hardware related. And even though we are not in charge of the hardware, we are still able to detect even if a cable is broken.  So in that sense, solving problems is the main thing that the clients like about us and being neutral as we don't sell hardware, we are not compromised to any brand. We are neutral and we can say anything and say everything that we need to say without compromising our commercial status. Does your software stack work with smart displays like the Samsung Tizen OS and LG Web OS?  Jose Behar: Last year, we launched the Tizen application. For the Tizen application, of course, because of the hardware we have different restrictions compared to a full player. But yes, we are now working with Tizen.  That idea was also to save money for our clients. That is our mantra. Our mantra is to create an income or to save money for our clients. With Tizen and with the service they support, everything is about saving money, because they make a playlist or maybe only show very easy content so they don't need to buy a full installation of players and splitters or whatever, only a connected TV, and that's it.  So with the support that we are offering, they are also saving a lot of money without sending surveys or people to every store or every area only to see if the system is working. We have been able to detect black screens and automatically report the black screens, even when in parallel with our software, we are trying to solve the issue with automated functionalities.  It's interesting because a lot of people generally in the industry and more broadly, just in general, would look at some of these very large clients to think, they're not gonna be all out concerned about hardware costs and month to month subscription costs and things like that because they're making bags of money and they're so big, but, they got so big because they worry about every nickel and dime, right? Jose Behar: Oh, of course. If you multiply only an SD card by thousands, you're gonna have to invest millions of dollars and with players or with even a cable, if you need HDMI cables, long cables with amplifiers or whatever, you're talking about millions of dollars, but it is also about buying the hardware, it also about the maintenance of the hardware. Once this hardware is installed, sometimes it's installed in an area that is difficult to access or is difficult for the IT department to be trained in a  timely manner. Our first concern is always to have the correct installation. We also help our clients with defining all the engineering layouts so they can have the best maintenance through the years. We had some clients, for example, that at this time, they're not even able to change a player even though it's a very old area because of the architecture of the area, so they are finding ways to do what they need to do without opening the wall for that kind of stuff.  Sometimes these people, as you said, don't even think about the installation or what kind of resources they will need in the ongoing activities, like with only energy, we have been able to detect that going black in the stores when they close or at different times we are able to save them millions of dollars in only energy. And that's why we can also control the TVs and we can have all the information about the TV, because with the idea of the displays, we can know how many hours they have left or when they are gonna need to replace the display or the splitter or whatever. You mentioned working with Sony Semiconductor earlier. What is that about? I believe it's a computer vision system called Aitrios?  Jose Behar: Aitrios is a camera that added the layer for AI, so with that camera, we can detect gaze and face detection, not recognition. Recognition at this moment is illegal, and you need a database for a lot of phases or whatever.  The idea here is to have a detection for two objectives, the first one is to have a report about how many people are in front of the display, their gender, age and also where they are looking because they can be in front of the display, but looking the other way, and they are one of the first hardwares that also can catch a lot of people at the same time, not only one person.  So one objective is to have those kinds of reports in order for decision makers to have more contentless content because sometimes they have to pay royalties for the content, but if they don't have a lot of people, and adding the analytics that we have with the clicks and all the information about the experience was used, they can make better decisions. In my point of view, the best objective of that is reacting in real time. So you can trigger content based on your audience in real time. So if you have a male around 50 years old in front of the TV, and looking directly at the TV, you can program it to automatically trigger maybe a Black & Decker advertisement. But if it's a female around 30 years old, looking directly at the TV from a distance of four to five feet, you are going to trigger a female orientation advertisement. So, now, segmentation is the name of the game. So you have people at the store who are there to buy already, but if you can also show them something that it's segmented for, then it's more probable that they are going to buy it or get a promotion for. So this is Sony Semiconductor as opposed to the Sony Pro Display Business unit. Do they work hand in hand on this, or is it a separate thing completely?  Jose Behar: Right now, it's a completely separate thing, Aitrios and Bravia, but also we are starting talks with Bravia to integrate Zynchro into Bravia like we did with Tizen, Samsung. Because I believe Sony has Android TV, I believe, right?  Jose Behar: Yes, Bravia is based on Android, the commercial specs and we are looking into that, doing some research. In the future, we may be able to have both in the same application. All right, so your company's in Dallas. Is everybody working out of a Dallas office, or are you dispersed?  Jose Behar: No, we are completely dispersed. It was like 12 years ago that we decided to start doing home office for all the programmers. They like it more because they can be with their families and also for some of them, it's like their hobby. They love what they do, right? So sometimes they work at night or sometimes when their family is watching a movie or whatever, they're still working, and as we have a lot of developers in Mexico, the idea was to help them avoid traffic, to avoid criminal issues. There are a lot of security issues in Mexico, so between traffic and all the criminal stuff, their efficiency went up more than 30%.  How many people are in the company now?  Jose Behar: We are a team of twenty seven. Wow. You've got some monster clients for a company that's in relative terms is quite small. Jose Behar: The thing here is that we have a lot of experience developing since the beginning of multimedia touch screens. So we have a lot of experience developing programming and how to do things more efficiently.  All right. It was great to finally have a chat and understand a bit more about your company. It's one of those ones I've heard about here and there, and now I know more, and as do our listeners. Thank you very much.  Jose Behar: Thank you so much for the opportunity and for your time. I appreciate it.

“He walked into the glitchy wilderness with a GORUCK bag, tritium watch, and nothing to lose but his cached identity.”In this genre-warping, filter-stripping conversation, Chris Abraham goes full analog soul in a digital world — decoding identity, memory, and authenticity in an age of surveillance, simulation, and semantic rot. From the ghostly AI of William Gibson's Agency to the aching sincerity of Love on the Spectrum, this episode is a postmodern pilgrimage for truth in a world where being “based” now outranks being “brilliant.”Chris explores what it means to live with aphantasia and SDAM, navigates the ethics of erasing your digital trail, and unpacks how meritocracy, identity politics, and liberalism lost the plot. With references flying from Foucault to A Fish Called Wanda, it's part sermon, part shitpost, part Socratic rave.Somewhere in the ruins of mass discourse, we meet the Low-Res Messiah: flawed, glitchy, possibly cringe, but still walking forward — one click, one stretch, one deletion at a time.Memory as Myth: Living with SDAM and aphantasia in a society built on nostalgia and vision boards.AI and Faith: When “Eunice” the AI mirrors both divine omniscience and autistic pattern recognition.Based Over Brilliant: The return of emotional honesty and lived authenticity as new currency.Virtue & Vice in Identity Politics: Why calling everyone a Nazi isn't just wrong — it's lazy.The Anchorite Reboot: Chris's call for digital minimalism, walking meditations, and gym-floor stretching rituals.“Mind palaces are a scam.

The free livestreams for AI Engineer Summit are now up! Please hit the bell to help us appease the algo gods. We're also announcing a special Online Track later today.Today's Deep Research episode is our last in our series of AIE Summit preview podcasts - thanks for following along with our OpenAI, Portkey, Pydantic, Bee, and Bret Taylor episodes, and we hope you enjoy the Summit! Catch you on livestream.Everybody's going deep now. Deep Work. Deep Learning. DeepMind. If 2025 is the Year of Agents, then the 2020s are the Decade of Deep.While “LLM-powered Search” is as old as Perplexity and SearchGPT, and open source projects like GPTResearcher and clones like OpenDeepResearch exist, the difference with “Deep Research” products is they are both “agentic” (loosely meaning that an LLM decides the next step in a workflow, usually involving tools) and bundling custom-tuned frontier models (custom tuned o3 and Gemini 1.5 Flash).The reception to OpenAI's Deep Research agent has been nothing short of breathless:"Deep Research is the best public-facing AI product Google has ever released. It's like having a college-educated researcher in your pocket." - Jason Calacanis“I have had [Deep Research] write a number of ten-page papers for me, each of them outstanding. I think of the quality as comparable to having a good PhD-level research assistant, and sending that person away with a task for a week or two, or maybe more. Except Deep Research does the work in five or six minutes.” - Tyler Cowen“Deep Research is one of the best bargains in technology.” - Ben Thompson“my very approximate vibe is that it can do a single-digit percentage of all economically valuable tasks in the world, which is a wild milestone.” - sama“Using Deep Research over the past few weeks has been my own personal AGI moment. It takes 10 mins to generate accurate and thorough competitive and market research (with sources) that previously used to take me at least 3 hours.” - OAI employee“It's like a bazooka for the curious mind” - Dan Shipper“Deep research can be seen as a new interface for the internet, in addition to being an incredible agent… This paradigm will be so powerful that in the future, navigating the internet manually via a browser will be "old-school", like performing arithmetic calculations by hand.” - Jason Wei“One notable characteristic of Deep Research is its extreme patience. I think this is rapidly approaching “superhuman patience”. One realization working on this project was that intelligence and patience go really well together.” - HyungWon“I asked it to write a reference Interaction Calculus evaluator in Haskell. A few exchanges later, it gave me a complete file, including a parser, an evaluator, O(1) interactions and everything. The file compiled, and worked on my test inputs. There are some minor issues, but it is mostly correct. So, in about 30 minutes, o3 performed a job that would take me a day or so.” - Victor Taelin“Can confirm OpenAI Deep Research is quite strong. In a few minutes it did what used to take a dozen hours. The implications to knowledge work is going to be quite profound when you just ask an AI Agent to perform full tasks for you and come back with a finished result.” - Aaron Levie“Deep Research is genuinely useful” - Gary MarcusWith the advent of “Deep Research” agents, we are now routinely asking models to go through 100+ websites and generate in-depth reports on any topic. The Deep Research revolution has hit the AI scene in the last 2 weeks: * Dec 11th: Gemini Deep Research (today's guest!) rolls out with Gemini Advanced* Feb 2nd: OpenAI releases Deep Research* Feb 3rd: a dozen “Open Deep Research” clones launch* Feb 5th: Gemini 2.0 Flash GA* Feb 15th: Perplexity launches Deep Research * Feb 17th: xAI launches Deep SearchIn today's episode, we welcome Aarush Selvan and Mukund Sridhar, the lead PM and tech lead for Gemini Deep Research, the originators of the entire category. We asked detailed questions from inspiration to implementation, why they had to finetune a special model for it instead of using the standard Gemini model, how to run evals for them, and how to think about the distribution of use cases. (We also have an upcoming Gemini 2 episode with our returning first guest Logan Kilpatrick so stay tuned
