Hey, so amazing things were shown last week at. Google i/o
2018 and i want to give you the highlights of what i think the best things and
One thing that might get a little heated discussion so yeah
We got to talk about that
Hey, josh here from gross tech making smart home technology easy to use install and understand so you can
Enjoy it in your life, so as the captain of team
google
No, i'm just kidding i ain't gonna. Be that i talked to google, about it though
They said no?
But as a google home user and buyer and one that owns one i wanted to see what
google, was going to bring this, year to google i/o
2018 and boy were we not?
Disappointed they kicked it off with first of all saying
We now support, and use and you know are good to nice with
5,000 products or companies in their smart home
Circle so yeah take that amazon but i want to look at the highlights that pertain
Specifically to the smart home technology
Be that their google home or their google assistant because yeah that's what, we do here on the channel but
Yes they announced their android pay they announced things for maps all this other stuff but
We're just gonna focus on my top 7 things dealing with the smart home technology
First off they introduced six get it six, new
Voices to the google assistant
Me i'm still gonna
go with the first one because
All the other ones sound exactly the same and i didn't really care for them you couldn't understand them but
That's just me if you, like, them, may choose one of those they even talked, about bringing on famous voices like
john legend, why, not morgan freeman i
Have, no idea but
hey
John legend is the first one of many i'm sure to come to being a voice in the google
Assistant so secondly what they talked, about was
continued
Conversation and this is amazing thank you google for finally listening and you know
trying to make it to be
Normal talking to this google assistant so what is it well basically you asked
Your query you know, what is the weather?
Raining and thunderstorm like it is right now
You, ask the question it tells you the answer and up to eight seconds after that you can continue the conversation without
Saying the key phrase
Which i won't say, ask him what the weather is it answers you can?
Ask, what the score of the cavs
Game is because they should be winning but the fact of the matter is is you don't have to use the key phrase
That's amazing and it makes it fluent, and easy just to have a conversation and
Don't worry your tinfoil hat people yes they said
That you can turn this feature off but it's not out. Yet so i can't show
You, how or tell you how
but they promise you can alright the third thing that they showcased and i am waiting for
it so much is google home displays yes i know, they're late they're, basically
Copying, the echo show, but who cares it's a. Google, home, display it's gonna be amazing
Instead of mounting a tablet in the wall in your kitchen which, is kind of where i see this being?
Perfectly, fit you can have one of these
And have everything your google home does plus your chromecast basically with the touch screen i mean you can get
Weather with the graphics you can
Call people you can, do like skype almost you can, voice chat over and video chat
Through, the google home display now, they already pick some
Brands to make the device they're, not making it themselves or so they
Say, but they already, have said that there's gonna be an lg
Lenovo and a jbl version of the display and i cannot wait for this thing to come out it
Looked amazing it can push it to your phone it
I can't wait and they said it's supposed to drop, and start sales this year in july at, some point in time so
Look, forward to that and so keep tuning back in because i'm getting one so the fourth thing that they talked
about, was multiple actions and as simply as it put you have two things you'd say in one
Sentence like turn on the lights, and what's the weather?
Well i can kind of do that already with the and word in the middle obviously it's this and do this
Well sometimes you have an and in that question or?
Statement that you give google that isn't two different things, like, they said
Who, won the game of?
pelicans and the warriors
Obviously that's not two things that needs to do but they're touting and showing off that their, google ai the
new google
ai Is able to look at the whole sentence structure and say is this one?
Action or is this two actions or multiple actions so that's they were showing that off as, well all right so the fifth thing is
Pretty, awesome we'll see how it works
What they showed, was they're integrating things in from the other apps so you've got your
Philips you or your nest app and you got your google assistant app on your phone, well they're what
they're trying to
Merge them together so when you pull up the google assistant app and say turn
My, thermostat to 61 it'll actually pull up
The actual
Thermostat, where you can change it in google
Assistant app so you, don't have to have all the other apps they have to go back, and forth so it's pretty cool, what
How deep is it going to get how
How much are you, gonna be able to do it didn't really show
That much is it gonna work with all the other different apps, we don't know
But they were showing this and it looks pretty cool, so it'll be interesting to see what they
Develop and come out with, when they release it
So the six thing that they came out with and to be honest it was a little goofy
In my opinion it's called pretty please feature
They're, testing it basically, what it is is making, your kids be polite and respectful
So google assistant will not answer or?
Do said question or?
Action without, them, saying please or thank you
i'm sorry but if you're a, parent i'm a parent and
if i'm relying on the google assistant to teach my kids to be polite i
Feel like we're missing something there i feel like we're
Mmm failing as a parent maybe
All right and yes finally it's here my final
Highlight of them and one that is the most popular and the most heated debate
Google duplex so they showed this clip, which i'm going to show
You here shortly between a google assistant calling a hair salon
show, the clip
Happier! Hi i'm a, woman's haircut for a. Client i'm looking for something i'm a third
do i get me one
Who are what time are you looking for a, while
Did you just see that
amazing
My, mind's gonna explode
I'm telling you it sounded like a human talking to the person at the hair salon
Come on anything, was like mmhmm, oh?
sure
really i mean it put those into its conversation this thing is
amazing
how can
You know it's so awesome?
I'm telling you this might be me highlight now it is the highlight of the entire
google i/o
2018 i don't care about android pee i don't care about, yes the vr when you have the maps is pretty cool
everything they showcased was awesome but, google duplex blew it out of the water siri you're dead
alexa, you're dead
bixby cortana
You're all been this thing
Forget all you
But just like everything
amazing and comes out in technology there's always
Snowflakes do get in the way and screw everything
Up, because they're
Gonna, be afraid of it or they're scared of what it could do or they're
Worried i'm a human i need to know, if i'm talking to a robot
if
You're, too dumb to understand you're talking to a robot or the ai
is that good that you're talking to it robot and it doesn't sound like, one
who
cares
Really, this the point of google duplex, was to help
you, be able to make phone calls for hair appointments for doctor's appointments for
dinner reservations things to help you
To, make it easy for you it's like a reminder
There's nothing wrong with it okay, but you could use to to do bad things
Yeah, hey, where is all the heated discussion about you're too dumb to teach
Your kid to be polite and so google has to come in and say you have to say please and thank you
Before it'll work, hey, how, about you teach? Your kid where's that?
Big heap, discussion
Oh, no this is an ethical decision and discussion and dilemma about a
Human, talking with an, ai and they don't know it's not a human
grow up
I'm so sick and tired of you being a bee about everything cool
So they're, saying that they're, worried because
Humans, should know, when they are talking to another human and it would degrade a human if they don't know
I'm serious you can't, make this up they're literally
Fighting it and big discussions, about it seriously these
People are saying that you have to announce to them that a human is not on the other line
That a robot ai is gonna be calling you, by the way?
You're, talking to an artificial intelligence by, google assistants they literally
Want google to put that in the phone conversation
First to let the person know
Do you, think a
The person on the other line cares if you call, me and i'm working at a restaurant and i take reservations
hello
You're, ai why do i care do you need a reservation
That's my, job?
Why, does it matter if a human is calling or a
Artificial intelligent is calling it doesn't make sense the worst part about this is the stupid
snowflakes got their, way
Google, back down and said, oh we're, sorry, we're, sorry
We'll be politically correct, we won't hurt anybody's feelings so we will?
We will announce that an ai is talking to you on the phone and it's not a human
why, do you people ruin everything one second i
Really, think this was a waste of an amazing technology and honestly they're?
Destroying it every single day that they, want to pick on it and everything i'm tired of them wanting to destroy
Spectacular technology, and find fault with it at every single side and
Problem, why?
why, can't you just let us have technology, and let it go let it grow, and
become amazing and honestly if it was between you and me i
Really, think, google should just forget they, had that conversation, and just go ahead and keep going forward and
The little snowflakes, won't even know, because it sounds like a human anyways, okay anyways, my blood
Pressure is at an all-time high because of this so let's end the episode there thank you again
For watching the gross tech show. And as always god bless you guys, and we'll see you in the next video bye
