Podcasts about visual intelligence

It's an all new That Real Blind Tech show as Allison, Brian, David, and Jeanine recap this year's WWDC.   We kick our review off with Brian discussing his recent experiences on his Delta flights to San Francisco, and some odd things happened.   We kick off our WWDC coverage discussing the sentiment of the angry mob outside Apple HQ letting their feelings be known about the state of Apple Intelligence. We move on to discuss the new Liquid glass coming to all Apple devices and what this will mean for Assistive Tech users.   We then discuss all the new features supposedly coming to Apple Intelligence some time in the next millennium. We discuss the new Apple Visual Intelligence not to be confused with the Apple crappy Visual Intelligence for the blind that launched last year.    Is Apple punting on Siri updates? Don't expect an updated Siri to at least Spring 2026.   We then dive in to a list of accessibility features coming in iOS 26. We hope this list we located is not rumor and is actually fact.   iOS 26 will bring massive changes to your Home Screen, but which screen is your Home Screen? And Apple Intelligence will give us a new look to messages and the phone app. We then discuss the new features coming to Notes and Reminders. Apple Maps is getting a new look and a few other things.   Apple Music will be getting a pinned list.    Boarding Passes will come to the Apple Wallet which in turn will then get live activities.   We then discuss our favorite items from the list of all the things Apple failed to mention.   The share Sheet is getting a makeover.   Your Apple Wallet will now track all of your shipments you receive an email notification about.   Spotlight in Mac OS Tahoe will become much more powerful. Spotlight will be getting Quick Key commands you can customize. Spotlight will also get the long wanted Clipboard History.   The Apple Watch will get a new wrist gesture to dismiss notifications and phone calls. We then discuss all the other features coming to the Apple Watch, spoiler alert it is brief.   The iPad will be getting four new apps. Much more exciting then the new apps is that the iPad will be getting the menu bar. The file structure is getting a much needed overhaul.   And finally we discuss all the new features coming to air Pods.   And it's more of Watcha Streaming, Watcha Reading.   To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at ThatRealBlindTechShow@gmail.com, join our Facebook Group That Real Blind Tech Show, join us on the Twitter @BlindTechShow ,

With major announcements across iOS, iPadOS, macOS, watchOS, tvOS, and VisionOS, the group dives into what these updates mean for users, developers, and Apple's broader ecosystem strategy. The episode opens with panel introductions before jumping straight into VisionOS 26, where the team highlights Apple's focus on spatial computing. Features like interactive 3D widgets, refined Personas, and improved collaboration tools on Vision Pro generate both excitement and critical commentary. Marty and Eric share real-world experiences with spatial widgets, emphasizing their value in immersive environments. The panel acknowledges Apple's ambitious direction for Vision Pro as it evolves from a tech demo to a productivity and creative powerhouse. Next, the conversation moves into iOS 26, spotlighting the redesigned lock screen with dynamic wallpapers and a streamlined interface for messages and phone calls. Jeff praises the new call screening and RCS group chat support, both of which significantly improve communication experiences. Updates to the Camera app and accessibility tools also reinforce Apple's commitment to a more inclusive user experience. iPadOS 26 draws praise for finally bridging the productivity gap with macOS. The introduction of a new windowing system allows for desktop-like multitasking, and panelists are enthusiastic about the debut of the Preview app on iPad. The improved Files app and richer audio input options are celebrated as productivity boosters, making the iPad an even stronger contender as a primary computing device. Turning to macOS 15, the conversation continues around convergence — with iPad and Mac experiences growing closer than ever. Chuck and David discuss how feature parity is leading to more seamless transitions between devices, particularly for multitasking and app continuity. The panel also briefly touches on watchOS 11 and tvOS 18, noting updates in health, fitness, and media experience. While these updates were more iterative, they reflect Apple's steady enhancement of its peripheral platforms. One of the standout segments is a look at Apple Intelligence, Apple's new generative AI initiative. The group discusses how Apple's privacy-first approach to AI, combined with on-device and cloud-assisted processing, could change the way users interact with Siri, productivity apps, and automation. The discussion also covers how this impacts developers and third-party integrations moving forward. In the final stretch, the team speculates on the future of the iPad and Mac. Will they fully converge or continue to serve distinct roles? With the iPad gaining more macOS features and the Mac embracing touch-like elements, the lines continue to blur. The episode closes with a few announcements and community highlights, including a plug for Macstock 2024 — inviting listeners to connect in person and keep the Apple discussion going.

In this episode, Incident Prevention's Kate Wade sits down with Kaitlyn Albertoli, co-founder and CEO of California-based Buzz Solutions, to explore how visual intelligence is helping utilities uncover hidden risks and modernize critical infrastructure. Kaitlyn shares how Buzz Solutions' platforms—PowerAI and PowerGuard—use AI-driven insights to streamline inspections, enhance grid reliability, and reduce operational costs. They also discuss the challenges of adopting new technologies, bridging the field-office communication gap, and what utility safety professionals can expect in the next 5 to 10 years. This conversation is essential for those interested in data-driven decision-making, infrastructure safety, and the future of AI in the energy sector.   To reach Kaitlyn directly, email her at kaitlyn@buzzsolutions.com or connect via LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/kaitlyn-claire-albertoli/   Key Takeaways: Buzz Solutions uses AI-powered visual intelligence to help utilities identify risks and improve inspection accuracy. Their platform PowerAI analyzes images from drones, helicopters, and field crews to prioritize maintenance and reduce operational costs. Integration with GIS and asset management systems makes implementation efficient and less disruptive. Buzz's tools support storm prep, wildfire mitigation, and long-term grid modernization. Education and communication are key to AI adoption across all levels of a utility organization.   Questions & Answers   Q1: What problem does Buzz Solutions aim to solve for utilities? A: Buzz helps utilities manage and analyze vast visual datasets, allowing them to spot infrastructure issues early, prioritize repairs, and eliminate data silos.   Q2: How does PowerAI differ from general AI tools? A: PowerAI is a purpose-built platform that uses machine learning for visual inspection analysis, making it highly specific to the utility industry's unique needs.   Q3: What concerns do utilities have about AI adoption? A: Many worry AI could replace jobs or be unreliable, but Buzz focuses on “visual intelligence” to support—not replace—field experts and improve safety decisions.   Q4: Can this technology help prevent wildfires or major outages? A: Yes, by analyzing infrastructure degradation and identifying high-risk components early, utilities can proactively address threats before they escalate.   Q5: How can utilities ensure smooth adoption of Buzz's solutions? A: Success hinges on integrating into existing workflows, gaining buy-in from field users, and automating data flow into GIS and asset management systems.     Subscribe to Incident Prevention Magazine - https://incident-prevention.com/subscribe-now/ Register for the iP Utility Safety Conference & Expo - https://utilitysafetyconference.com/   #UtilitySafety #VisualIntelligence #GridModernization #AIinUtilities #UtilitySafetyPodcast #InfrastructureInnovation   ________________________________ This podcast is sponsored by T&D Powerskills.

Welcome to Notable Leaders Radio! I'm Belinda Pruyne, in this milestone 100th episode, I'm celebrating the incredible guests who've shared their wisdom, courage, and vulnerable stories over the years.  In today's episode, we discuss: Discover the real journeys behind "overnight success" stories—Because you'll see that even the most accomplished leaders face setbacks and internal challenges, giving you permission to honor your own slow burn to success rather than compare yourself to unrealistic narratives. Those “overnight successes” actually take 15 years of hard work and pushing through whatever is in your way. Learn about finding and using your unique voice, especially in male-dominated industries (Ivy Slater's, Vice Admiral Sandra Stosz's, Michelle Russo's, Amy Conway-Hatcher's, Dr Mary O'Connor's, stories)—If you're struggling to stand out or be heard, their insights will help you leverage your strengths in any challenging environment.  Hear diverse stories of joy, resilience, and strategic risk-taking—so you can build more joy, clarity, and growth into your own work, borrowing from actionable wisdom shared by a variety of leaders, from corporate executives to entertainers/authors to military figures, and the list goes on. See the power of “Being More You, Not Faux You” in tough situations (Amanda Hawkins' story)—You'll realize that authenticity isn't just a nice idea, but a winning strategy for building trust and influence with even the most senior decision-makers. Take away unique mindsets like architecting a life by design (Chad Lefebvre) versus a life by default—As a way to challenge accepted norms and intentionally create a fulfilling path, instead of just accepting what you're given. Understand how personal experiences outside of business (from dance to the board room, riding instructor to corporate executive…) can shape leadership strengths—Meaning you can tap into your own life story and skills for professional advantage, not just traditional credentials.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we unpack Apple's announcement of the all-new iPhone 16e. The ‌iPhone 16e‌ is the newest member of the iPhone lineup, offering a massive upgrade over the now-discontinued third-generation ‌iPhone‌ SE. It features a 6.1-inch OLED display with a notch for Face ID, a Ceramic Shield front cover, a USB-C port, and an Action button, and much more. It is powered by an A18 chip, enabling support for Apple Intelligence features, such as notification summaries and Genmoji for creating custom emoji. It also supports Visual Intelligence. In the ‌iPhone 16e‌, the A18 chip has a 6-core CPU and a 16-core Neural Engine, but a binned 4-core GPU, making it slightly less powerful than the iPhone 16 and ‌iPhone 16‌ Plus. It also has IP68-rated water resistance, Wi-Fi 6, and Bluetooth 5.3. The device is equipped with an Apple-designed 5G modem called the C1, whereas other iPhones have a Qualcomm modem. Apple says its own modem is so power efficient that the ‌iPhone 16e‌ offers the longest battery life of any 6.1-inch ‌iPhone‌ model ever at up to 26 hours. On the back of the ‌iPhone 16e‌ is a single 48-megapixel Fusion camera, which provides a 2x "optical-quality" Telephoto option, according to Apple. On the front, there is a 12-megapixel camera with autofocus. The device does not have the Camera Control button that was introduced across the rest of the ‌iPhone 16‌ lineup last year. It also lacks MagSafe. ‌iPhone 16e‌ supports Apple's satellite features. When outside of cellular and Wi-Fi coverage, the ‌iPhone 16e‌ supports Emergency SOS, Roadside Assistance, Messages, and Find My via satellite. The device is available in white or black, and with 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB storage capacities. In the U.S., pricing starts at $599. We talk through how the ‌iPhone 16e‌ compares to the iPhone 15 and ‌iPhone 16‌, which sit at $699 and $799, respectively. We also contemplate what the discontinuation of the ‌iPhone‌ SE line means for the Apple Watch SE later this year.

¿Te gustan las sorpresas tecnológicas? En este episodio vibrante de El garaje de Cupertino, el equipo se lanza de cabeza a desmenuzar el inesperado lanzamiento del iPhone 16E, anunciado por Apple el 19 de febrero de 2025. Olvídate del típico iPhone SE: este nuevo modelo llega para revolucionar la gama de entrada con un diseño que recuerda al iPhone X, un potente chip A18, y una batería que promete 26 horas de vídeo. Pero no todo es perfecto: sin MagSafe, sin gran angular y con una pantalla de 60 Hz, ¿vale realmente sus 709 euros?Rafa, Ali, Guaica y Joaquín, con su mezcla de humor y análisis, debaten si este "hermano pequeño" del iPhone 16 es un acierto o un paso en falso. Desde el nuevo modem Apple C1 que promete mejor conectividad hasta la ausencia de funciones como Dynamic Island o el sensor ultra ancho para AirTags, el episodio está cargado de opiniones frescas y datos clave. ¿Lo mejor? La llegada de Apple Intelligence en abril, con promesas como Visual Intelligence, aunque Siri seguirá esperando su gran momento.Con un tono cercano y desenfadado, el equipo también especula sobre el futuro: ¿matará el 16E al concepto SE? ¿Qué traerá el iPhone 17? Si buscas un podcast que combine tecnología, risas y un toque de curiosidad, este episodio te enganchará desde el primer minuto. ¡Descubre si el iPhone 16E es para ti o si deberías esperar algo más jugoso!Conviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/el-garaje-de-cupertino--3153796/support.

Apple gaat vanaf mei haar AI-dienst 'Apple Intelligence' aanbieden op iPhones in China. Daarvoor werkt het samen met de Chinese techbedrijven Baidu en Alibaba, meldt Bloomberg. De AI van Apple zal gecensureerd worden volgens de wensen van de Chinese overheid en draait op servers in China. Voor Apple is de uitrol van AI op haar iPhones in China een belangrijke stap. Het afgelopen jaar zag Apple de verkoop van iPhones in het land terug teruglopen doordat het niet de AI-diensten kon leveren die op andere smartphones wel aangeboden worden. Daarvoor heeft het Amerikaanse bedrijf nu een oplossing gevonden. Volgens perssite Bloomberg zal Alibaba de werking van Apple Intelligence mogelijk maken via haar eigen AI-model genaamd Qwen. Dat zal zorgen voor de AI-samenvattingen en AI-gegenereerde emoji's en afbeeldingen. De Chinese overheid houdt de mogelijkheid om wijzigingen aan het AI-model aan te brengen, volgens bronnen. Het Chinese Baidu zal de complexere AI-taken op zich nemen, die buiten China door Google en ChatGPT op de iPhone worden aangeboden. Baidu heeft een AI-model genaamd Ernie dat multimodale taken kan uitvoeren, waardoor het Visual Intelligence op de iPhone mogelijk maakt. In Europa is Apple Intelligence ook nog niet beschikbaar. De verwachting is dat dit in april ook naar Europese landen uitgerold zal worden.

Our conversation also covers the beta release of iOS 18.2, highlighting new tools like Playground and Genmoji while addressing beta testing experiences.

We kick off our conversation by unpacking Apple's quarterly earnings call, which revealed a revenue of $95 billion—a 6% annual increase. However, a notable twist was the one-time charge of $14.8 billion linked to a European tax case, significantly impacting our discussion on Apple's financial health. We explore the implications of these numbers, considering shifts in iPhone and Mac sales alongside the steady growth of Apple's services sector. Each of us shares insights and reactions, highlighting analyst questions and the predictably guarded responses from Apple's executives. Transitioning from financials to technology advancements, we delve into the recent developments in Apple's Vision Pro. The release of Vision Pro 2.1 and its compatibility with Apple's software updates starts the discussion regarding the headset's features and the expected influence of Mac virtual display capabilities. Chuck and Marty reflect on their experiences and expectations for future enhancements in this space. As the conversation shifts to the beta release of iOS 18.2 later in the show, we cover new features around Apple Intelligence. This includes the introduction of tools like Playground and Genmoji, which allow for creative image manipulation and enhanced user interaction. With so many users eager to explore these new capabilities, Marty sheds light on some of the hurdles he has faced while waiting for access, igniting a candid dialogue about user experience and beta testing frustrations. The excitement continues with discussions about the newly announced Macs. The introduction of the latest iMac and Mac Mini—equipped with the M4 chip—sparks a passionate exchange about their specifications and value as entry-level computers. Chuck expresses his enthusiasm for the Mac Mini's portable design, while Marty shares plans to acquire one for himself. As we reflect on Apple's approach to product announcements, we also touch on how this segmented rollout provides focused attention on individual devices. Additionally, the new MacBook Pro models with M4 Pro and M4 Max chips are unveiled, leading to reflections on their enhanced performance metrics and prolonged battery life. The emphasis shifts to the versatility for both professional and casual users, generating a lively debate about current needs versus future-proofing investments.Lastly, we explore the realm of iOS with the rollout of iOS 18.1, discussing Apple Intelligence enhancements, user interface changes, and how they aim to improve user experience significantly. Jeff and Marty share personal anecdotes about their interactions with the enhancements, including improved Siri capabilities and photo functionalities. In closing, our dialogue encapsulates a wealth of information and insight on Apple developments across hardware and software. With new products to explore and updates to navigate, this episode is a treasure trove of insights for Apple enthusiasts and everyday users alike.

Today Paul's back and we cover stabilizing dealer profits, GM & Ford helping Fleet customers transition to the EV lifecycle, and Apple's newest beta features available now.Show Notes with links:New data from the Presidio-NCM benchmark shows the sharp drop in dealership profits may be stabilizing after a tough year. Average dealership pretax profits dropped 30.4% in 2024, but this is an improvement from earlier declines.Used-vehicle margins showed improvement, while new-vehicle margins continued to shrink.Fixed-operations performance helped offset declining overall profitability.George Karolis of Presidio Group notes, "The improvement... is the strongest indicator yet that retail automotive's profit tumble could end up stabilizing."GM and Ford are rolling out new tools to help fleet operators make a smooth transition to electric vehicles, addressing concerns about cost, charging, and business impact.GM's “EV Starter Kit” helps identify EV-suitable drivers and routes, offering home charging solutions.Ford's “E-Switch Assist” analyzes vehicle usage to suggest which can be replaced by EVs.Ford's tool has analyzed over 38,000 vehicles, finding 53% suitable for EV replacement.GM provides telematics and OnStar analytics to support businesses with cost comparisons.“Our solutions are aimed at making this transition easier and potentially reducing the total cost of ownership,” said Nate McDonald, Ford Pro's EV brand manager.Apple's iOS 18.2 developer beta introduces advanced AI tools and enhanced integration with ChatGPT, expanding the capabilities of Apple's ecosystem.Developers can now access tools like Genmoji and Image Playground for image and emoji generation.Visual Intelligence allows users to search using their camera on iPhone 16 models.AI-powered writing features and expanded regional support are part of this release.ChatGPT integration is set to enhance user interactions on Apple devices.Apple Intelligence will continue rolling out in stages, with Siri's screen-aware actions yet to arrive.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

Everyone knows it is dangerous to talk on the phone while driving – but it seems like it shouldn't be. After all you talk to people in the car while you drive and that seems to be okay. This episode explains the reasons why driving and talking on the phone don't mix – at all. https://www.kansashealthsystem.com/care/centers/trauma-center/resources/distracted-driving Do you know what visual intelligence is? It is how you look at all you see. What do you notice? What don't you notice? It is how you look at the world. You can sharpen your visual intelligence if you know how and there are some real benefits to doing so. Here to explain it is Amy Herman, who has provided training to the FBI, Navy SEALs, NATO, the Peace Corps, Georgetown University Hospital, and executives at Microsoft and Google. She is author of the bestselling book Visual Intelligence (https://amzn.to/49LRD1U) There is also a new adaptation of that book for children called smART: Use Your Eyes to Boost Your Brain (https://amzn.to/49IX9T5) Pain is something we are all intimately familiar with. Consequently, it is important to understand how pain works, what it is telling you and how to control it. That is precisely what Dr. Aneesh Singla is here to discuss. He is a physician who specializes in treating pain and a leading expert on the topic of pain. Aneesh serves on the physician faculty at Harvard Medical School, and he is author of the book, Why It Hurts: A Physician's Insights on The Purpose of Pain (https://amzn.to/3W26jHc). People smile when they are happy. It's natural. However, it may also be a good idea to smile even when you are not happy. It turns out there are some real benefits to simply smiling that you may not be aware of.
