Host(s): Abram Nanney, Shane Chism, and Sabir Abdul-Haqq (www.yourebs.biz) Topic: A couple weeks ago we actually got our first talk to us message asking us to talk about the types of technology used in the Super Bowl. From drone shows to augmented reality, there were a lot of things maybe a few people had never seen before, but they’ve been around for a while. So today on Everyday Tech, we’re gonna expand that prompt a little to also include other ways we have seen this technology used. Thanks to Mike from Tupelo for suggesting this to us.

Host(s): Abram Nanney, Shane Chism, and Sabir Abdul-Haqq (www.yourebs.biz) Topic: When does technology go too far? Where do people draw the line? In recent weeks, it seems we’ve found some people’s limits with technology and the world of AI. A new videogame has been accused of using AI art for its assets. There was a chatbot campaigning for president. AI being used maliciously to create explicit images. And also, a possibly unfortunate end to important telecommunications legislation. What does all this mean going forward? Email your tech questions and opinions to: everydaytech@mpbonline.org Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Host(s): Abram Nanney, Shane Chism, and Sabir Abdul-Haqq (www.yourebs.biz) Topic: Today on Everyday Tech, we’re returning to the Versus Series where we pit two products or services against each other and see what the pros and cons or advantages and disadvantages of each are. A popular debate in the gaming community is over which console people prefer, Xbox or Playstation. In order to help our audience be better informed, we wanna take the time today to compare and contrast the two in several areas. Previously when we tried to bring this subject up, we had some callers call in to share the love for Nintendo Switch and other consoles, which are great, but today we just wanna talk Xbox vs. PlayStation.
