Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Hey there, it's Kim, of course. Right after today's Daily Tech Update, I'm going to have a special surprise for you. It's a clip from my other podcast. It's called The Current. It's packed with great tech news that you expect, just a little bit more relaxed. I think you're really going to love it. Just think of it as your tech coffee break. Picture this.
You walk into the office, and half your coworkers are whispering into microphones on their desks. Nope, they haven't lost it. They've ditched the keyboard. I'm Kim Commando for NetSuite. AI is here, and companies using it are ahead. If your revenue exceeds seven figures, get their free guide, Demystifying AI, at netsuite.com slash kim.
AI-powered voice-to-text has gotten good enough that people are dictating emails, reports, even code by talking. One tool leading the charge is called Flow from a startup called Whisper. It works across any app, Slack, Gmail, ChatGPT, and strips out your ums, uhs, and those filler words.
Chapter 2: What are the benefits of using voice-to-text AI in the workplace?
The pitch? Most of us talk way faster than we type. Whisper raised $81 million, so somebody believes this is the future. But is it awkward talking to your computer in a quiet office? Yes. But remember when AirPods came out and people were walking and talking around in the air? We got over it. We'll get over this too. I'm giving away seven grand right now. Enter to win.

You don't want to miss this. I'm going to play a bite-sized sample of The Current. It's my other podcast where we dive into all things tech, trends, and life online. I think you're really going to love it. Now, as companies are embracing AI, they're not using the word pivot anymore. Okay. Because it used to be like, we are now pivoting towards artificial intelligence.
Is that a buzzword when it comes to like company value and stock market and stuff like that? Yes, paradigms and goals and all that other crap. Okay. So now instead of pivoting, they are refounding. What now? Refounding.
I heard you. It just doesn't make any sense.
Chapter 3: How does the Flow tool from Whisper enhance productivity?
So when they are like the likes of Airbnb and OpenTable and HomeAway and all these other companies that as they are realigning their staff. Firing people. Is that they are refounding the company. And so here's an actual quote. I actually had to write it down. That instead of a layoff. One company called it a spiritually synergized strategic realignment. Can I give them the middle finger?
I mean, this is YouTube, so I know it's allowed and there's no FCC. Go jump. That's ridiculous.
I can say it again. Spiritually synergized strategic realignment.
Gosh. And nobody believes it. Every single person that reads that press release goes, oh, they're laying people off. Oh, they're trying to make it sound nice.
Chapter 4: What challenges do employees face when using voice-to-text technology?
Right before Christmas.
Right, exactly. That's not very spiritual. I'm feeling the love. Are you? I am.
Are you full of the spirit? I am. Everybody watch out for your job. She's full of the spirit. We're having a spiritual realignment. You're fired. That's it. Google's dropping two pairs of AI smart glasses. Great. Okay. One is audio only where you can talk to Gemini and it will talk back and
The other one is a full-blown in-lens, like, heads-up display that you can get translations, directions, the works. There's also rumor that if, like, they were to see you on the street, that it would say, oh, that's Andrew Babinski. Okay. You know, he's the co-host with Kim Commando, who's better than he is.
I don't know why they would say that.
They're working with Samsung, Warby Parker, because they say that the... The glasses are going to be chic. They're not going to look nerdy.
This is to compete with the metaglasses, obviously. Exactly. So I'm going to give you the time on the show right now.

Chapter 5: How are companies redefining their strategies with AI?
And as much as you need, list out all the people that you know that use metaglasses on a daily basis. Go ahead. Nobody?
Nobody. I don't know anyway. Why are they spending all this money on these glasses? No one uses them. Well, they're hoping that they'll come out with a version that people will use.
But we've been there. We got the Ray-Bans. We got the Metaglasses. We had to generate the Google Glass before that. Remember all those Google Glasses from Glassholes? Right. Nobody uses these.
I mean, I'm not saying... Except the weird stalkers because you can, you know, be filming people.
Nefarious reasons. Exactly. People use them for nefarious reasons. And then, you know, the Metaglasses, they're figuring out how to make sure the light doesn't turn on so that they can record people without them even knowing that they're doing it.

Chapter 6: What is the significance of the term 'refounding' in business?
But these are Google glasses. So, of course, there's going to be ads in front of you. Oh, yeah, that's true. It's a pop-up. Imagine if you're in the toilet and it starts whispering ads to you.
Or you get in a car accident and the cop asks you what happened. Oh, there's a pop-up right in my eyes. I couldn't see anything, officer.
I'm sorry.
Couldn't see crap. There's a sale on Amazon right now.
