  • Episode 169 - Hey A.I. Leave Them Kids Alone
    It’s an all new end of the year That Real Blind Tech show. Yes, we know it has been awhile since our last episode, so we got Allison, Brian, David, and Ed together to record one final episode before the end of the year.   We kick the show off discussing the biggest story of the year. The NYC and New Jersey Drone phenomenon. And just in case they are from another planet, let us from That Real Blind Tech show be the first to say welcome back E.T.   We then discuss the shopping site innosearch.ai.   We then discuss the Solos airGo 3 Glasses and the new Solos AirGo V glasses. Gemini 2.0 is here with real time video, kind of. You can access the real time video at www.aistudio.google.com. Meta Ray Bans is introducing live video in the Meta Early access plan. You can sign up for early access to features here.   The FBI has warned that two factor SMS authentication is not secure after the worst hack in U.S. history.   Amazon is bringing accessibility improvements to fireTV, but one giant thing is missing from all of it.   We then move our focus to 2025, as it is coming up quicker then you think. We discuss whether or not 2025 will finally bring the SmartHome revolution we have been waiting for.   One Arizona school is looking to get rid of all their Teachers, yes, no teachers!   Apple is already being pressured to drop A.I. News Summaries.   ChatGPT now has a phone number you can call when not connected, disappointingly, it is not 8675309.   The EU is considering demanding that Apple open air Drop to everyone. And the EU will be enforcing stricter accessibility guidelines as of June 2025.   We then discuss our favor Holiday movies with Audio Description. And yes, Die Hard is a holiday movie! We then discuss what we are looking forward to in 2025.   And it’s more of Watcha Streaming, Watcha Reading.   We close with a somber goodbye to our friend John Panarese. You will be missed.

  • Episode 168 - Innosearch.ai The Future of Blind Online Shopping Is Here!
    It’s an all new That Real Blind Tech Show, and just in time for your holiday shopping, Brian is flying solo with a demo of Innosearch.ai, a site that is revolutionizing online shopping for the blind. This site is so awesome you will end up spending money you don’t have! Ok, we do not recommend you spend money you don’t have, but we do recommend that you listen to this amazing demo of Innosearch.ai.   Brian walks you through the layout of the site. You get a sales and most popular products section. Brian then does a few searches and walks you through navigate the search results, the product pages, and the unique Innosearch A.I. feature which will give you tons of information of products that you will not get from mainstream retailer shopping sites, well not all mainstream shopping websites.   Brian then takes you through adding a product to your cart, and the checkout process.   Now while this site has a lot of promise, the first time checkout as you will hear was not the smoothest of experiences, and can be improved.   Brian then walks you through a search for Bose Noise Canceling Headphones, Purina Lamb and Rice Dog food, and Scottevest clothing.   Next Brian takes you through the booking a flight option. Unfortunately, due to the lack of filter options and every element being labeled as a heading this searching for flights is not ready for primetime. Hopefully with more design this could eventually be a great option for booking flights.   To contact That Real Blind Tech Show, you can email us at ThatRealBlindTech It’s an all new That Real Blind Tech Show, and just in time for your holiday shopping, Brian is flying solo with a demo of Innosearch.ai, a site that is revolutionizing online shopping for the blind.
