Why are we suddenly seeing ads for products we just talked about?
We've always believed it was no coincidence. After talking about restaurants, a new car, or perhaps booking an airline reservation, your phone is suddenly flooded with ads for products you were just talking about. So were they listening to everything that you said? Okay, it was not your imagination or coincidence. Yes, they were and probably are still listening. Both Google and Apple listened and recorded millions of customers' conversations. And they've been doing this since 2014. Was it illegal? You bet. After a class action lawsuit was filed, Apple's settling for $163 million. Google settled for $95 million. Apple's worth more than $4 trillion. Google, $3.25 trillion. So do you think this really taught them a lesson?
Meta's new Ray-Ban glasses are about to identify you, your job, and your last social media post. Find out more at GetKim.com. And now a clip from my weekend show, The Kim Commando Show. It's pretty much the best radio show in the world, but I may be just a little biased. Sit back and enjoy. Sam Altman and Johnny Ivey are making this mysterious AI device, and turns out that Apple is actually making one too. Apple has a wearable AI pen. So you remember that AI that didn't work before? Right. Okay, now you're going to have it on a pin. It's a small aluminum glass disc that attaches to your clothing, basically an AirTag.
What illegal activities did Google and Apple engage in regarding user privacy?
It's said to have two front-facing cameras, three mics to hear everything around you, and a speaker for responses. And it wirelessly charges like an Apple Watch. And so they say you're going to have this super smart assistant right on your chest, Probably early 2027.
By super smart, you mean using someone else's technology?
So I can look at my blouse and go, we're on a sunset today. Meanwhile, Microsoft comes out and they say that Copilot's on track to evolve from just being a AI support tool to being your emotional buddy.
What settlements did Google and Apple face for their privacy violations?
And it's going to be like a live-in life coach. So maybe if I hadn't run for a couple of days, it'll say, Kim, get your fat butt off the couch. That's very rude. Wouldn't that be something? So it's really interesting to me what's happening in Hollywood and with artificial intelligence. I don't know if you heard about this, but Matthew McConaughey, he filed eight federal trademarks on himself. So nobody can use himself? Yes, his voice, his face. And he said it's his legal strategy to fight AI deepfakes before they even happen.
They've already, already happened. We've had callers on this show that have gotten Facebook messages from Matthew McConaughey falling in love with them and asking for money. No.
Yes. I haven't gotten any of those.
Well, he's not attracted to you.
Nice.
So here's what he copyrighted.
All right, all right, all right.
He copyrighted that phrase? Yes. Which is interesting because he didn't write that phrase. Who did? The writer of Dazed and Confused. But he performed it. I know. This is like an NFT all over again.
I mean, okay, okay, okay.
What innovative AI devices are Apple and Microsoft developing?
We can't, you can say that. We can't say, all right, all right, all right. No, it's too totally different. So you could say he's raising the bar, you know, like Lincoln lawyer bar exam. Oh, that was such a stretch. when you have to explain the movie you're referencing when you haven't referenced it yet that's a call forward not a call back okay i'm getting better i am i'm getting better because after all it's the kim commando show it's the nation's largest best biggest show about all things digital and i'm of course america's beloved digital goddess kim commando here with you once again and joining me as always is my co-host andrew babinski who's also the co-host of the morning show in phoenix arizona on 99.9 fm and you can catch the kim commando show on over 425 top stations across the united states so that's what makes it the best the biggest the award-winning show
