This week on That Tech Pod, Laura and Kevin sit down with tech veteran and AI thought leader Ken Gavranovic, CEO of Product Genius, for a lively and insightful conversation that spans AI, ethics, innovation and pop culture. Ken opens up about his challenging childhood, sharing how it sparked a passion for technology and a desire to build tools that could truly make a difference, much like the kid in the movie War Games. From early fumbles in fax software that made others millions but netted him nothing to working with tech giants like Disney and 7-Eleven, Ken walks us through his evolution into the AI space and why he believes AI will have the most substantial impact on humanity. We talk about ethical AI and data privacy, especially when it comes to children and younger audiences, how to leverage AI insights without drowning in data and the key contrasts in AI adoption between big corporations and smaller businesses. Laura and Ken geek out about functional health, from UV-cap water bottles to proactive blood testing to the very real fears (ahem, Laura) about robot uprisings from a tangent on the movie Smart House, the series Cassandra and The Terminator movies. Plus, we discuss recycled toilet paper and sustainability with a shoutout to Who Gives a Crap, and wrap things up with a peek into Ken's Amazon best-seller, Business Breakthrough 3.0, a must-read for any leader navigating digital transformation. Tune in for an episode that's smart, human, and just the right amount of tech-weird.Ken Gavranovic is a global keynote speaker, a seasoned technology executive, and the CEO of Product Genius, where he leads the development of AI-powered tools that transform real-time data into actionable customer insights, driving service improvements and operational efficiency. With over two decades of experience, Ken has helped businesses—from startups to global brands like Disney World and 7-Eleven—leverage cutting-edge tech to achieve measurable results. He has led 18 successful exits, 35 mergers and acquisitions, and an IPO, and has held key executive roles at New Relic and Cox Automotive. A global keynote speaker and member of Thinkers50 and the Forbes Council, Ken is also a co-author of the Amazon best-seller Business Breakthrough 3.0, a practical guide for leaders navigating digital transformation and scaling operations.

Send us a textIn this episode of Please Don't Spoil The Movie, we're throwing it back to the golden age of DCOMs with Smart House! This Disney classic follows a teenage boy who wins a high-tech dream home, only for its AI system to go rogue and turn into an overbearing mother.

Since the basic cable debut of The Disney Channel in April 1983, the House of Mouse has used its family-oriented network to feature its best movie ideas that weren't quite ready for the silver screen. At first the films were released under the name “Disney Channel Premiere Films,” but since 1997, they have been released under the banner Disney Channel Original Movie – or DCOM – up until 2022, when Disney+ took up the mantle. Regardless of the term you use to describe these feature-length gems, they bring to the fore a feeling of intense nostalgia. Generations are defined by the DCOM movies of someone's particular childhood! As always, this led the Great Pop Culture Debate team to wonder...what is the Best Disney Channel Original Movie? Movies discussed: High School Musical, The Thirteenth Year, Twitches, Smart House, Zenon: Girl of the Future, Tru Confessions, Quints, Descendants, Cadet Kelly, Brink!, Teen Beach Movie, Halloweentown, The Cheetah Girls, Get a Clue, Zombies, Camp Rock. Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Amma Marfo, Bob Erlenback, Joelle Boedecker, and Trey Radu-Blackburn as they discuss 16 of the most-popular Disney Channel Original Movies.

After a fairly chaste school year, the Rommies decide to try and have a horny summer by moving into their dying dad's fully automated domicile (a SMART HOUSE, if you will) which is conveniently located across the street from their crush. At first, their plan works! They are able to spend quality time (both in and out of the shower) with their crush, and their dad even starts getting into the horny summer vibe by reconnecting with his ex-wife. After a few weeks though, the Personal Applied Technology computer (PAT, if you will) that runs the house starts to get jealous of all the horniness. It takes corporeal form and traps the Rommies and their dad in the house in an attempt to keep the horniness all to itself. Will the Rommies be able to escape PAT and the SMART HOUSE to have one more horny summer with their crush before school starts again? Will the Rommies' dad be able to escape PAT and the SMART HOUSE to have one last horny summer before dying? Listen in to find out!

This week it's Sam's turn to share a Disney Channel original movie with the 1999 movie Smart House. Ben Cooper is your average 13-year-old kid completely distraught at the loss of his mother and so desperate to keep his family from changing further that he sabotages his dad's attempts at dating. You know, healthy stuff. Ben isn't only a severely troubled kid, he's also a computer nerd and spends all his free time entering online contests, the most recent of which is to win a smart house. Ben, of course, wins, and this smart house his family moves into is amazing and can do pretty much anything including using its terrible tentacle arms to harass the local paper boy. It was apparently entirely built and programmed by one woman, Sara, working for a company that does...something, though nothing related to this house it seems since they basically give it away and never look back. At first, Pat, the house's AI, is amazing, making smoothies and cleaning up messes, but when she starts to glitch Ben's dad calls Sara in, and uses that as an excuse to date her. Ben is not having this and decides to reprogram Pat to be all the mother they could ever need (yikes!) and, setting aside how a child could reprogram this technological marvel, Ben clearly needs immediate therapy, as is common for most of the characters in our media. Things, predictably, go haywire from there, and then we are left to wonder if Ben's family can survive Pat's intense mothering, and if Ben will ever address his deep grief and trauma over the loss of his mother. But as this is a Disney movie, instead of therapy we get the delightful 90s pastiche that warms our hearts, including Ben and his friends performing a choreographed boy band dance. Even better, there's a rat named Butler here to help!

Aside from Disney, Stu wrote the screenplay for The Land Before Time, developed Toot & Puddle for television and wrote episodes of Harold and the Purple Crayon.

The "Green New Deal" calls for us to replace all existent technical instrumentalities with networked computer-controlled systems dependent upon a centrally-controlled electrical power grid. If we let these would-be Messiahs have their way, we will not be able to heat or light our homes, buy or sell, travel or even survive without their approval. We dare not give up our control over what Marx called "the means of production". If we abandon individual control over the many means necessary for our ongoing survival, we will be lost.Would you like to share your thoughts with Ralph?

If you step back really far, about 20 years back or so, you can why Smart House exists. Not exactly a star turn or a career maker for anyone involved, though Katy Sagal gives us an amazing, terrifying, Proto-Tarunga Leela meets Theranos Beta dressed up as Small Wonder. It's no wonder it tops so many lists when it features a giant scary robot woman. “Step on me, Mommy!” is a more common thought than we may feel comfortable admitting. But that is a different podcast altogether. - Sugar Bursties- - The Ringer - what the movie got right/wrong: https://www.theringer.com/movies/2019/6/19/18686827/smart-house-disney-artificial-intelligence-katey-sagal - Streaming, Streamed, Strumed - Wired on the Day Streaming Died: https://www.wired.com/story/hbo-max-netflix-disney-plus-day-streaming-died/ - Ackroyd and Curtain doing weekend update: https://youtu.be/c91XUyg9iWM - Simpsons House Sweepstakes: https://www.famouscampaigns.com/2021/01/an-exact-replica-of-the-simpsons-family-home-was-built-by-kaufman-broad-for-pepsi-raffle/ - Runaways has runaway from Disney+: https://collider.com/marvel-runaways-removed-from-hulu/ - Full list of removed content: https://gizmodo.com/disney-plus-hulu-removals-full-list-1850482457 - Amanda Seyfried is everything: https://youtu.be/1RHY9-35KwA —- Research and references completed using Wikipedia, IMDb, Rotten Tomatoes, Box Office Mojo, and Disney.Fandom.Com. ----- People who can get pregnant have a right to safe and legal abortions, for any reason.

Summary: “In this episode, we explore the capabilities of ChatGPT, a large language model trained by OpenAI, to come up with romance and mystery synopses. Our hosts, Holly and Devin, will be using ChatGPT to generate plots and storylines for their very own romance and mystery novels.” And that was ChatGPT, too! Continuing these show notes using our boring human brains… Holly is fascinated and intrigued by ChatGPT and AI in general; Devin has been scarred since Smart House, the 1999 Disney Channel Original movie came out and prophetically underlined the dangers of letting Alexa into your home. To better understand the AI trend sweeping the nation, Holly and Devin each prepared two synopses for either a romance or mystery, read them aloud, and then their co-host would guess the prompt before the final reveal of what we plugged into ChatGPT to get each synopsis. Overall, both hosts agree that they'd read the books that ChatGPT created and had an absolute blast using AI for some very nerdy, hilarious use cases.
