AI is not “coming” to your job, it is already sitting in your inbox. We’re back on the mic with Episode 84 of the Tech Hustle Podcast, and we start with the stuff that tells the truth about the market: massive layoffs, flashy acquisitions, and hardware experiments that flame out when real users will not pay the bill.

First up, D Hustle breaks down two tech stories that feel like a preview of the next decade. Ben Affleck reportedly sells an AI film post-production company to Netflix for almost $600 million, a reminder that AI tools are turning weeks of editing and VFX cleanup into days. Then we react to Samsung discontinuing the Galaxy Z Trifold after durability issues and rising costs, plus what foldable phones mean if Apple enters the game while Samsung still gets paid as a supplier.

Raymond brings a tough real-world debate about responsibility when a teen driving mistake turns fatal and the parent ends up doing serious time. From there we lighten it up with a genuinely useful find, WornOnTV.net, for anyone who wants to track down clothes and accessories seen on TV. Then Bobby D goes deep on Jules, an AI agent built with tools like OpenClaw that can handle email, tickets, calendars, and other daily “computer work” through messaging apps like WhatsApp and iMessage. We talk workplace AI adoption, private internal models, and the uncomfortable policy question nobody wants to answer: if AI replaces workers, how does society replace the tax base?

If you’re building, hiring, or just trying to stay employed, this one is for you. Subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review, then tell us what part of your workday you’d trust an AI agent to run.

Cold Open AI Layoffs And Taxes

SPEAKER_03

Jack Dorsey laid off 40% of their workforce at box. Blessings to all of those uh that are back in the market looking for opportunities. There is going to need to be some initiatives from higher powers to regulate some of this stuff. All of those companies that lay off employees reduce our tax ability for those individuals. Meaning, let's say I have 100 people, right? 100 people are paying taxes every year. Now I cut those people from 100 to 50. Now there's only 50 people paying taxes into there. And the 50 people that are cut are going to be replaced by AI. So how does AI pay taxes for the space that people used to pay? Welcome, welcome, welcome. What up, D Hustle?

SPEAKER_05

What's going on?

SPEAKER_03

Chilling, man. I feel like I've been offline for a minute, bro.

We got my guy D Hustle's gonna give us some tech current events, Raymond's Nuggets. Let's see if we still got Raymond's Nuggets sound on the board, right? No, no, not that one. Raymond's Nuggets. He says he got some uh news stories, some utility sites, and we'll see if we jump into other stuff. Um and then we're gonna come back to me where I'm gonna be talking about um an AI that I've been building here on the show for I would say almost two years now, called Jules. Y'all have heard me talk about her a few times, um, but also another project that I got um in flight. So uh y'all can get you know tuned in on what's going on in the world of AI. Um then we got my guy uh d Hustle coming back with sports. Where's your sports sound? We still Yeah, you know, we could not not get that sound on the board.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, you want every line of Bobby.

SPEAKER_03

D D, you're getting really uh uh comfortable over there with the board, bro.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, let us know what else to put on besides just add to the list, right?

Add to the list. I got a whole bunch of stuff we can add on. Yeah, the cool thing about the switchboard now is it supports more ad libs, so we can do even more. That's fire. It's it's just how much, you know, D D can keep up with all the the requests that are coming in. But uh my guy said he got it, he got it. So, first up on the on the list here, and we are still looking for uh uh some intro music or songs for my guy D Hustle for TechCurrent events. Uh, but since we got the board here and we got you know a little bit of uh uh uh opportunity for my guy to switch it up for us, uh let's see if we can go ahead and give D Hustle a quick round of applause. Yeah, maybe yeah, yeah. He's coming to the stage and and and give us a little bit. What do you got on under your sleeve for your intro for tech current events? Uh-oh. Uh-oh, uh-oh.

SPEAKER_02

Appreciate you, D. What's up? What's going on in the world of tech today?

Ben Affleck Sells Film AI

SPEAKER_05

All right, ladies and gentlemen. First things first, I want to give a big humongous shout out to the one and only Ben Affleck over here. Ooh, who's Ben Affleck doing? Ben Affleck is going to sell his AI company to Netflix for almost$600 million.

SPEAKER_03

Wow.

SPEAKER_05

All right, so just in case, if you guys have not heard of it, uh founded in 2022 with a team of only 60 people. Mind you, he's been doing this secretly. Uh-huh. All right. 16 people quiet building up most of the stuff. Post-production tools film industry has you ever seen uh for him. So actually, what it does, it uh it was raw footage dailies and trains a custom of AI models on your specific film, allowing filmmakers to uh do nice scenes, remove stunts wires, reframe miss angles, enhance backgrounds, and VF VFX and correct um errors after filming. Interesting. Basically, tasks and days that traditionally requires works and months uh for complex post-production works. This deal can change Hollywood forever.

SPEAKER_03

Oh my gosh. Give him a big round of applause again. Uh in first off, uh he's selling to Netflix. Netflix wasn't planned. Netflix is trying to pick up everything, right? Um, but the other thing here is that uh it's an actor that's built a company in stealth mode, which is kind of like nobody really knows it's on the streets, but he's building it with AI, which is kind of aren't they against AI in some capacity? Right? But it was gonna be like a film creator that was actually gonna find the use case for the tools. And how much did he sell it again for?

SPEAKER_05

600 million. Good lord.

SPEAKER_03

What are we doing wrong, fellas? Yeah, what am I missing here? Like Ben Affleck, 600 million dollars to Netflix, and Netflix just wrote that check like it's nothing.

SPEAKER_06

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

Wow. Well, congratulations to him again. Um, and definitely if you are thinking about creating something, this is a nice little plug here. Holl at the tech hustle. We got a few cool projects running and going on right now actively, and we're also providing a way for our viewers to contribute in some sense, like, hey, be some of our first customers, or if you have an idea, you might be a uh a part of the founding tables, too. So if you do have something, holl at the crew here. Um, I'll mention you know, a product or project that we got going on a little bit later in the discussion, but definitely want to throw that shameless plug in there. So uh big shout outs to Ben Athlete, man. Yeah, we love you, Ben. He was in that, well, he was in that what was that movie he was in recently? Um that review, which was what was it called? The pit, right? Was it the pit or was it the pit? Was the one with the drug drug busting thing? Oh yeah, I'm having a brain fart. I can't remember. The one that was here in South Florida where they R.I.P. R is it called RIP? Yeah, Rip. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You call it Pip?

SPEAKER_01

Yeah. I'm like, what?

SPEAKER_02

I deserve that one. Uh but definitely uh big shout-outs to him. Anything else on your list, player?

Samsung Trifold Phone Gets Axed

SPEAKER_05

Oh, we're done with mine and doing next one. Oh, if you want add more to it, let me know, player. Okay, I was just trying to figure out because I was listening to this. So he was trying to find the interjection point. You know, what's that? Samsung, man. Samsung. Uh oh. Samsung has ended. The Galaxy Z Trifold has been discontinued now. So that big humongous three camera, put it out there on Discord if you guys can see there. Uh what happened? We launched an CES 2026 for$2,899. This trifold phone uh with a 10-inch display with two inward folding hinges, uh, is done. There's no more.

SPEAKER_03

Two two inward folding hinges, so it kind of like folded into itself. Wow.

SPEAKER_05

Yep. So basically what happens is reports of display failures of the ultra niche apparel uh combined with raising memory and component cost made production unsustainable. Oh man. Uh Samsung produced this beautiful uh gadget here on 20 to 30,000 units. Uh and once it's done, it's done. They're not gonna remake it. They're not gonna, if your phone messes up, they're not gonna make a new model for you.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Uh it is what it is. It is done.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. How how do y'all feel about the fold? I know, I know we've we've covered it a few times.

SPEAKER_05

Uh, first of all, it's 2800. Jeez. 20? 2800? 2800. God damn. Uh well, I lied. Uh 3,000 because we are not even adding the taxes. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Um, the phone looks good in person. Uh, I just want to spend the money for it. Um, I mean, for that, I'd rather buy a a pro, a version. Yeah. Um, but it looks big, it looks it looks like a tablet, you can say. Um, I know I talked about this a while ago here, but uh unfortunately this is um it won't restock online. You ain't getting it unless you shop and overseas. You might be able to get it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah. But hey, that I mean that that's part of the hustle itself is uh just imagine the amount of time that they did and they only you know produced 20,000 units. Uh 20 to 30,000. 20 to 30,000 units. They're gonna be rare when we see them out in the streets. Um, and maybe somebody keeps it as a keepsake, like uh the good old technology that used to be. Yeah. Um, but what what do y'all think? I mean, we've covered it a few times, but the do y'all feel like the market is not really embracing uh this new style of phoning where it just wired?

SPEAKER_05

I think they are. I mean, there is a certain amount of people that are all buying it, especially the employees. Yeah. Employees are definitely getting a discount out of it, so they're not paying the$28,000 to$3,000 that we are paying. Um if it's up to the potential, then I I don't see why it wouldn't be uh efficient for everybody to have.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Um, but shout out to them uh for building new shit. Yeah, yeah. You're not like Apple with the same shit over and over again. Exactly. Uh so if if I can lay my hands on and a good deal, maybe uh I'll pay$13,000,$1,500 for it. Uh, but not the I don't know what the other$1,500 is gonna come from.

SPEAKER_02

That's the discount. D D said that better be part of the discount.

SPEAKER_03

That's just that's just me. Yeah. I mean, I think we ran into one when we was in um Baltimore, um, and this lady had it. Uh it was a foldable phone. It was noticeably foldable. Um, but it was like still when she folded it all out, I was like, man, you got a lot of table space there uh to observe and interact with apps and and the internet. Um but I I mean DU reported that Apple's also thinking about getting into the foldable phone.

SPEAKER_05

Well, they're gonna make a foldable phone, but a little bit smaller and thinner than that.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Uh but guess who's building it?

SPEAKER_03

Samsung! Wow Samsung said we're gonna get bread regardless. Well, they're going to.

SPEAKER_05

I think that's why they stopped it because they're gonna see so much money that's coming from Apple's revenue and stuff. They gotta get a piece of that. Yeah, for sure. And not lose the opportunity. They're not gonna lose. So like they might as well not, they'll probably get the money, invest on something more advanced, yeah, and then might sell it to Apple. Yeah, Apple might come, but they still have Samsung one might have to make a cut out of it.

SPEAKER_03

Samsung's like, yo, we're not losing. This is a win-win for us. Well, big shout out to Samsung. Um, and definitely looking forward to I guess the new era phones with uh larger uh table space per se. Um I I don't know how I feel about it. It feels like I'm walking around with a tablet.

SPEAKER_05

But have you have you seen it before?

SPEAKER_03

I've definitely seen not the threefold one. That one's actually.

SPEAKER_05

You've seen it, but you haven't touched it.

SPEAKER_03

I haven't used it, yes, for sure. You need to touch it. Yeah, yeah. You're like, I'll be sold.

SPEAKER_05

Well, I don't think you'll be sold as far as how big it is, but you can imagine how much you can do with that. You can watch movies, you can shit, you can do a fucking Excel on there, you can fucking uh Microsoft like work stuff on this stuff, right? You know, the much space that you can have, I I see it's it's what is worth it. But again, I don't have it. I'm more than happy to try it out if anybody wants to send me it. For sure. We'll definitely write it back. Uh definitely send it back with great reviews. Yeah, yeah. Um, and we go from there.

Should Parents Do Time For Kids

SPEAKER_03

For sure. So if you do have one and looking for some feedback on any product that you have, here goes another shameless plug for the podcast. Send it to the podcast. We will definitely take our time, give it a really, really great review, um, and let y'all know how this tech uh, you know, tech in general, how how we would use it in normal, right? Because we we just normal people, we ain't no well the these these the guy. He's like, I'm I'm more than normal. I'm I'm an excellence. But anyway, great, great, great insights. Thank you so much for the tech kernel events. Um and next up, we got my guy uh Raymond. Don't call him Ray Ray. What's up, player? What's up, gentlemen? What's going on? See if I still remember how to do this. It's been so long. Yeah, and and you got a sound over there that's uh supposed to be for you know. Out the gate, bro.

SPEAKER_04

Out the gate. I don't know what he missed. Uh what up, player? What's going on, man? So yeah, I wanted to start off with a news story that kind of took off here. I'm not trying to bring the podcast down, but you say bring the podcast down.

SPEAKER_03

We only uplifting here.

SPEAKER_04

So yeah, this is a story that um I got into it with my girl. Uh wanted to get your take on it. Wow. Um, so I kind of dropped it in the uh let's see here. If I can hit it. Well you dropped it. All right. I just dropped it in our group. Well, typed it into our group chat here. So I don't know if you guys heard about this story. Um based here in Florida, gentleman by the name of Ferguson. He was sentenced to 37 years in prison for manslaughter. Wow.

SPEAKER_05

Oh, yeah, I remember this thing.

SPEAKER_04

So, what I wanted to get your take on it, I was arguing with my girl about it, is a driver hit a grandmother and three of her kids. And Ferguson here, who's um 68 years old, was sentenced to 37 years. Mind you, he was not driving the car. Oh, I remember this one. His teenage son, who's 15, was driving the car, but he got sentenced to 15 years. The son got sentenced to 15 years? No, the father did. Oh, the father did. Mind you, he was not driving the car. Yeah. His son, who's 15, ran a stop sign, killed a grandmother and three of her grandchildren. Wow. Yes. I'm confused.

SPEAKER_05

So the grandfather and the father went to jail?

SPEAKER_04

The father is 68 years old. His son is 15. Okay. The father is going to jail for 37 years. Oh, okay. He was not driving the car.

SPEAKER_03

Wow.

SPEAKER_04

His son, 15, ran the stop sign, killed the grandmother and three of her grandchildren. The grandson, well, the son got four years. So what I wanted to get your take is I think it's complete BS that the dad was not driving the car. He got charged 37 years to do in prison.

SPEAKER_03

That is that is my. So the son didn't have his permit, didn't have a license.

SPEAKER_04

But I wanted to get your opinion on it. My opinion is I think it's complete horse crap. My girl thinks it's okay. She said it's your responsibility.

SPEAKER_03

Oh, so the the the extra details is given more clarity in terms of like did the 15-year-old have his permit or driver's license. Um and who cares? I wasn't driving the car. No, no, I get that. But um you as the uh guardian of uh the child are in responsibility, or or you are actually um how can I say this in a way, you the the things that that child does is under your responsibility. For instance, um not trying to sour anything, but let's say that a young kid goes and does some crazy stuff at a school or something like that, the parent could potentially get you know uh charge for what actions that kid did. This is kind of in that same light. My question is, was it an accident or was it something deliberate?

SPEAKER_04

Because if it was an accident, of course it was. I mean, it was an accident.

SPEAKER_03

But but what I mean by accident, like let's say that you're driving up and the the driver unintentionally does not see that other person and then rolls through the stop sign and does something. If it's like, hey, I'm running stop signs three blocks at it and I'm at my fourth stop sign, I'm running through, that's that's different than being accidentally doing that. Like if it's like intentionally doing it, um, somebody has to be responsible for it. Who that person is responsible, definitely the person, the the child, but they are they're gonna be treated as a young adult or a uh a minor. Right. Um and if the offense is high enough that the adult should have been the adult in the room, then I see that the adult does have responsibility for it. So there's so much more context, I think, that is missing from the story.

SPEAKER_04

But there's stories every day of kids killing people, raping people, their parents are not put in jail.

SPEAKER_03

Yes, but but if if let's say that the parent knew that the child was gonna go do that, and the parent didn't step in to prevent the child from doing that, then the parent's at fault.

SPEAKER_04

The man has stage four cancer.

SPEAKER_03

I know, but if if if it was done intentionally and the parent knew it, and he's sitting there like, nah, go ahead, J go ahead and do that. Uh run through the next stop sign. Come on now.

unknown

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

If if it's a parent sitting there like, no, don't do that, no, stop here. Hey, this isn't illegal what you're doing. That's a parent being a parent in a room. I don't think they're at fault. But I I mean I don't know the context behind that situation.

SPEAKER_04

Okay.

SPEAKER_03

Um but I don't think it's it's a blanket response in terms of the defense either. Like that needs more context, in my opinion. Okay. Um, it's worrisome, and definitely with my son being 15 and he's driving now, but he has a permit, and when he's behind the wheel, I'm the person sitting in the passenger seat and I'm extra paying attention. So if he does make a mistake, I know I'm at fault. Like I explained to him, like, hey, if you do something, I'm the one that's gonna get in trouble, not you. Like, that's being a parent in that space. But if I'm in a back seat, you know, on my phone, not paying attention, and then he goes off and does something, then yeah, I'm at fault. Okay. Yeah. I don't know. What do you think, D? I kind of ran a little bit.

SPEAKER_01

D say I ain't going to jail for no.

SPEAKER_05

Well, I I was trying to read it here. I mean, I seen it in the news. Uh it doesn't give me a lot of uh context about exactly what happened, besides the kid was driving. Father goes to jail for 37 years and then having uh cancer. Number one, uh, my son is driving, so um, it's one of those things. I'm scared of shit when he's driving. All right. How old is your son? Uh he's 16. Okay. So he's driving. What up, Jordan? Uh what up, Jordan? Uh, this is for you. Uh, you're not supposed to drive until I'm in the car or your mother's in the car.

SPEAKER_03

Uh or I I need to go also drive with him, too, because he asked me to drive and I owe him one.

SPEAKER_05

So uh the force be with me. Okay. Uh this just because he plays Formula One online, it's not the same. He thinks it's the same thing on the street. It is not the same thing. Um, first of all, if the kid uh my condolences to the family. Facts. Um nothing but love and praise to you guys. Um there's no coming back from that. So I do apologize about the accident. Uh first thing first, um, if you're 15, 16, and or whatever the case may be, you just got your permit, you need to drive with somebody in the car. It is the law. Yeah. Number one, if you're driving with somebody in the car and you get into the accident, like Bobby said, you're at fault. Yeah. The parent is at fault. Now, if you're driving by yourself, right, with no parents in at the end of the day and you cause an accident, I think you should be at fault. Because nobody told you to take the car and drive. Uh just for a rain for 200.

SPEAKER_04

What if you snuck the car out and I didn't know that you took it?

SPEAKER_05

He's at fault.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, he's definitely at fault.

SPEAKER_05

The kid is I I think the kids are for he should do the time. Uh what is that they called them when the kids go a little young?

SPEAKER_03

Uh like uh juvenile.

SPEAKER_05

Juvenile, yeah. Uh juvenile for quite some years, and after he reaches his Certain age, then he gets transferred to a regular prison. Um, I think it's really messed up that a guy has cancer and he's at fault. Um I again, I I I don't know. I I can't I can't uh I can't say nothing but but let me let me throw this on the table as a side thing.

SPEAKER_03

So um imagine you're in a situation and they bring in a plea deal and they say, All right, um your 15-year-old son is gonna get 25 years, or you can take those years for him.

SPEAKER_05

Well, I was gonna get that to that next, but I'll let you finish.

SPEAKER_03

No, I'm I'm throwing the questions to see what you know what your response would be. Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

I I would look at it like, yeah, I'll I'll take it. So, for example, me. I have stage whatever cancer he has, I know I'm gonna die. And my son gets into an accident and he's gonna spend 37 years in jail. And I'm like, you know what, I'll take the hit for it because I want my son to experience life. But he's now he has this in his head that he just killed fucking four people. You know, so maybe he might need therapy. Me, I I don't know whatever the case may be, but me as a father, I live my life. You know, my son is my son is about to, you know, he's still got his whole life, he's still got high school, he's got college, or whatever the case may be. But I I'll take I'll take the hit. Yeah. Because at the end of the day, I I live my life. I'm gonna die regardless. I'd rather you save the money on the chemo and and and whatever exactly on the bill because at the end of the day, all that is gonna add up as a big humongous bill. Yeah. Um, so that's it, it plans differently. I mean I mean it's it's messed up that he only gave him four years. Yeah. Uh was in juvenile. Uh but everybody like there's no other response for it.

SPEAKER_02

How about you, Raymond?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I mean, I would I would take the hit too, like the hustle. I just still think that it's messed up. Like, I wasn't driving the car. Like, how do I know my son didn't sneak out and get the car? Like, how is this on me? Like, but did he say that? I don't know the detail, but the guy's stage four cancer, you could barely walk, he's about to die.

SPEAKER_05

He knows he's about to die, but he he looks at it like he's free at the end of the day. Why? Because like Raymond said, I'm about to die. Yeah, it's only a matter of time.

SPEAKER_04

How do we know the son wasn't helping the pops out, going to get the medication or whatever? Like sure, it could be right, but there's nobody there.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, there's nobody there. But but this is the part of not having the context because um to wipe that all off the table, they say, Raymond, you're gonna go do this time. And this is why when I read the story or heard the story, I automatically thought, like, hey, he he basically just took the time. It was like, hey, whatever, whatever it was, it was it was uh is what it is. I'm already chalked up, my time is almost up. Um, I'll take this one. Um, and then the results of it is you hear a story like this, which obviously is not uh um uplifting, but and in some sense I feel like yeah, he probably did take it. Yeah, and now the results of it is like the public's like, how in the world did this person get this? Yeah, we don't have all the context behind what what was thrown on the table for that situation, but okay, yeah. Yeah, just wanted to get your opinion on this.

SPEAKER_01

Appreciate you, man. You you definitely tested my father, my fatherness.

WornOnTV Finds Clothes From Shows

SPEAKER_03

Big boy, no out there running, going crazy. If you have a problem or accident that's different, but not out here whipping it, running through stop signs. Um, and keep your eyes out for pedestrians because they're always have the right of way. So lesson learned. Lesson learned. So, what's going on, man? What else you got on your list?

SPEAKER_04

Uh all right, so we all know who our fashion person is on the podcast. Dehustles. It's obviously not me. I mean, you know, put Bobby in, good second place. Nah, I'm the worst person.

SPEAKER_01

So actually, you came in with more look, you even got a better shirt than everybody and you're talking about.

SPEAKER_04

You know what? That's a good segue into my shirt here. So I got a website on here that I just dropped in. It's glad that you brought that up. It's called WarnOnTV.net.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah. So speaking of that, Trina, who owns this lovely facility here, saw my shirt and she's like, Hellfire Club, what is that? I'm like, it's the best club on earth, Trina. She's like, Where's that from? And of course, one of her co-workers recognized that it was from Stranger Things. And her outfit on Elizabeth today, I don't know if you guys saw it. It's inspired by Stranger Things, apparently. The last episode. So take a look at Elizabeth. Her outfit is inspired by Stranger Things. This website here, Warren on TV, is pretty cool. You can go on this website and anything you see someone wears on the TV and you want to buy it, you go to this website. For example, you go to WarrenOnTV.net, you type in your show or movie, you could break it down by seasons, character, and it will literally take you to the link for that item, and you could buy it right there on the website. Isn't that cool? Warn on TV. So I told Trina about it. Go check it out. You like the Stranger Things shirt that I got on, Trina? Go to this website, worn on TV.net, type in Stranger Things in the box, and it will show you all the cool shirts and whatever show you like and whatever, you know. Yeah, yeah. So yeah, I thought that was cool. And I thought D. Hustle might love this since he's a Mr. Fashion guy on our podcast here.

SPEAKER_05

SPEAKER_02

That's why he's our fashion guy.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, uh, but if you think about the business idea here, this is not bad. It's pretty cool. And apparently the website gets a you know, small percentage of course they do. Yeah, that's how they get their money. But I thought it was cool, I thought it was unique and stuff like that. So I was thinking about you know, D hustle and the audience.

SPEAKER_05

SPEAKER_04

He thought about he thought about this site specifically and thought about you, bro. So yeah, because D hustle wears some cool shirts that I like and stuff like that.

SPEAKER_02

Jules AI Agent Runs The Admin

SPEAKER_03

All right, fellas. So let's let's jump into a little bit of techie talk here. Um, cue up that music. Let's see what we let's see if D can find it.

SPEAKER_06

Uh oh, yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

I knew you were gonna find that one. But yeah, old school beat, man. I I really uh miss you know these settings, this space, um, and definitely excited to talk to y'all a little bit about jewels. Um, if you haven't heard me talk about it on the show, um, do a quick search in our archives of videos. I don't know if y'all have ever checked in YouTube how many videos we got out there, but we are well over 100 plus content out there. So big round of applause to both of y'all for always, you know, continuing to support. Sure. Um big round of applause to our subscribers for supporting us. And uh I remember somebody told me this one time. He says, uh, our old shit is better than our new shit. So definitely go listen to all of our old stuff. Um, but yeah, today I wanted to talk about jewels. Um, it's an AI, how can I say instance or an AI agent that I've been working on for a number of years on the podcast? And one of the things that um I've been successfully been able to do is uh really bring jewels to life. We've talked about you know agencai and AI tools. Um but have y'all heard me talk about uh a tool called OpenClaw?

SPEAKER_01

Have y'all heard about that?

SPEAKER_03

Yeah, OpenClaw. It's uh it's a really cool, easy way to interact with AI agentic systems. You can use like Telegram, iMessage, or just you know, um WhatsApp to communicate with your AI instance so you don't actually have to install like the Chat GPT um app. Um, but the thing that this thing has literally done, fellas, is I talk to my son about it all the time, is it actually helped me bring jewels to life. Now, when you think about bringing AI to life, um just imagine some of the daily things that you do. So at your job, how many times do you check your emails? Okay, right? Like constantly, right? Yes. Or how many times do you reply back to a new ticket or a new uh incident? Right? You're always in your ticketing system. Um and then for the software engineers, how many times are you, you know, updating or accessing code that's in GitHub, right? Uh jewels can do all of that continuously. Uh how many times do you, you know, go to your calendar and be like, all right, I need to move this meeting from you know 12 in the afternoon and see if the person's available at five? Um, all of these normal functionalities are basically coming to life in jewels. And what I'm really wanted to get, um, especially from Raymond, since he called out D Hustle earlier, I wanted to see Raymond's opinion about this is um how do you feel in terms of the journey we're on with AI, where there's a comment that we always say, like, hey, AI is taking jobs, but how do you feel like um in terms of the possibilities of what it what it could do um versus what you originally said, hey, I I don't even want to talk about AI.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, I mean I'm still concerned about jobs being lost, but that aspect of it doing my email and moving stuff around, that is cool. I do like that.

SPEAKER_02

You do like that.

SPEAKER_04

I do like it can do that, and if I still can keep my job.

SPEAKER_02

So So if it can do your job, but you still keep your job.

Workplace AI Starts Writing Everything

SPEAKER_03

Yes, yeah. So that that's so um that is something that I think a lot of CEOs have been dealing with, with the massive amount of layoffs that we have going on. I just heard the other day Jack Dorsey laid off 40% of their workforce at box. Um, and blessings to all of those uh that are back in the market looking for opportunities. Um but every time I make an advancement with jewels, um, I'm seeing us getting even closer and closer. Um have have either of you had any use case or integration with AI at all at your workforce yet?

SPEAKER_04

No, I'm struggling still trying to figure out how I can integrate it into my work task, but I don't have a use case for it yet. Yeah. Outside of like rewriting emails.

SPEAKER_03

Rewriting emails. How old you do? Not much. They kind of locked it all off, right? Um, but I believe you you mentioned that there was a company you used to work with that kind of like embraced AI in some sense.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, a company I used to work for. One of my coworkers, I had met up with them, had some dinner, and they were telling me that at their job that um they're being forced to use AI for everything they do. Writing emails, writing their scripts. Doesn't matter what they do, they need to like use AI, but they uh kind of have like a closed AI that they only use at their company.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

So it's not like Chat GPT or Claude or whatever, it's just they're private that it only stays in the company. So, but they're forcing everybody to use it.

SPEAKER_03

Yeah. So and and I think that's one thing when we were originally talking about it, that I think once companies really embrace is how they could isolate or you know, specifically only have it do things within its network and stuff like that.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

AI Layoffs Trigger A Tax Problem

SPEAKER_03

Um, but uh the uh part that I'm I'm really I guess getting enlightening on on where we're going with the industry is companies are gonna start doing it, right? Um I even seen, and maybe you all have noticed inside of Gmail, have y'all seen this little new help thing that pops up in Gmail where it can help you write your emails? Yeah, have you seen that before? So there's this new little box that pops up. And I guess if you type a slash before you start writing your email, it actually it uh like starts up another AI that can basically draft the email for you. Oh, okay. Um, and then the cool thing here is that you don't even have to write it formally, you can just talk to it like you're talking, like, hey, I need to write a follow-up with Raymond on X, Y, and Z. Um, check if he's available, this, that, and this time, and then generate the email for you. And then you can actually insert it into your email. Is um those type of things is like level one of what AI is gonna be at a workforce. Um, the next level that um a lot of developers on the outside or tinkers like myself are seeing is is like um an AI that's actually listening to my inbox and automatically replying back. That's like the next level above, right? Yeah, because I think that in in uh companies, and this is more or less uh when I was thinking about talking about this, I was really trying to think of like how I can help uh give like a public service announcement for what's coming and give some use case for it. Um but the main thing here is just to let y'all know that uh this thing is on its way. It's uh gonna be a few years until companies catch up. But where I'm at with jewels right now is um literally I have an employee that I pay for$200 a month for all of the licenses and all the stuff that I have running uh to get Jules to do what it has to do from different model providers and things like that. But literally just$200,000$200 a month, I have a person being an AI that's working for me. Um and when you see CEOs seeing this type of innovation come up, we all just gotta get prepared. And that's what this part of the conversation is. It's not, hey, not just to talk about these brand new, shiny new toys and tools called AI, but really just letting y'all know that um it is a wave. Uh it is going to change. Um, and if anything, I can encourage you to do is use this tool every day so you can become more proficient with it. Um, because the way that Raymond was describing how he wants it to be used is literally what's going to start um taking place in the workforce. So um big PA, what is it? Uh public service PSA, like the big fire alarm PSA announcement is um every day that I use this tool, I can see even more jobs being taken. Um, not just white-collar jobs like office job. If anything you do, facts, anything you do that touches a computer, anything that you do that touches a phone for communication back and forth, it's a wrap. It it is it is it is a rap. Um I don't care what anybody else says, I don't care how many people have different types of opinions about it. Um once once we get to the level of understanding of AI like I have, like organizations have, yeah, we got a problem. Now, the side effect, the side of this, um, and I'll bring this up in our next kind of podcast when I'll talk about tech. Um, and I don't mean to only talk doom and and and and what is it called? Doom and doom and gloom. Doom and gloom. Um, but um there is going to need to be some initiatives from higher powers to regulate some of this stuff, uh, because there is a side effect of it. For instance, and I'll just drop a quick gem and then we'll jump into the next section is all of those companies that lay off employees reduce our tax ability for those individuals. Meaning, uh say I have a hundred people, right? 100 people are paying taxes every year. Okay. Now I cut those people from 100 to 50. Now there's only 50 people paying taxes into there. And the 50 people that are cut are going to be replaced by AI. So how does AI pay taxes for the space that people used to pay? So that's another topic that we'll definitely talk about next week, but definitely something that um I want us all to be prepared for because the time is coming, but we definitely gotta get ready for it. All right, we had two two doom and glooms during the podcast today, but definitely uh D Huss is gonna bring us back up. So uh cue up uh uh what we got going on for sports section is what's next.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03

He was waiting for that. It was like too much doom and gloom. Man, my guy got everything we need.

SPEAKER_05

So what happened if Tua uh does phenomenal over there? Yes. Will you say it's it's the league, or will you say it's the organization? I gotta find it.

SPEAKER_04

Or you say uh I mean, look, we all know the Dolphins have been trying to look for a number one quarterback since we're gonna be a good one. That's a lie. That's a lie.

SPEAKER_01

We we've been looking for merino. They've been looking for merino. You don't think so? No. I don't think so.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, I've been looking for merino. Yeah, I think you guys were set in stone with the lovely um, how you call it again, with Tua. Let me shut that down because I got y'all to hear us.

SPEAKER_04

He fooled us.

SPEAKER_05

How did he fool me? He gave you guys the the taste. You guys went for it debate. Uh uh the reason I know is because uh two years, I think, if not mistaken, two or three years, you guys did not draft it a quarterback at all. Because you guys said two was the answer. He was the truth.

SPEAKER_04

The truth. Yeah, and right everybody has been fired who made those decisions.

SPEAKER_03

How about all the fans? Should the fans be fired too? No, we're used to the fire.

SPEAKER_04

Because y'all y'all were shouting, y'all were chanting. We're used to this. This is a revolving cycle being a Dolphins fan.

SPEAKER_02

So back to what he was saying. Like so they skip two years not getting a quarterback.

SPEAKER_05

Tua, Scarlet Thompson, and uh the backup, which was uh was it Brisket? Jabrovski?

SPEAKER_06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

Uh why not draft a quarterback? Why not knowing that you guys need a quarterback and skip um quarterback? I mean Deion uh uh Sanders was available.

SPEAKER_03

That would have been an amazing pick, bro.

SPEAKER_05

Nice backup.

SPEAKER_03

Oh my gosh. Imagine that. We got fooled, that's all that happened. Oh my gosh. That would have been amazing for the city. Yeah. That I don't I don't even that would that would have been amazing.

SPEAKER_05

Yeah, we got fooled, that's all.

SPEAKER_04

Yeah.

SPEAKER_05

You know, um unfortunately you guys can't get Mendoza because Tom Brady's on top of that already. Yeah.

SPEAKER_03

For the Raiders?

SPEAKER_05

Yeah. For the Raiders. Yeah. So uh I don't know, man. I guess you're gonna have to figure that out. Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

It's uh it's a rebuild the next two years. That's what we were doing. So what's the prediction of the record? Uh prediction of the record? I say we win six six six games. Well, what quarterback? Oh, we signed some backup from um the Packers. It's our bridge quarterback.

SPEAKER_03

Bridge, bridge to where?

SPEAKER_04

A bridge to rebuild. We got rid of everyone. They got Tyreek is gone, Waddle's gone, they ain't got nobody.

SPEAKER_05

So I got rid of Waddle. I don't want to understand.

SPEAKER_04

I don't understand it either.

SPEAKER_05

I'm like, why don't you get rid of your tight end, uh Waller? Go back to uh DJing slash rapping.

SPEAKER_02
