You're listening to a podcast from News Talk ZEDB. Follow
this and our wide range of podcasts now on iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
The Rerap.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
Okay, then welcome to the Rerap for Friday.
Speaker 4 (00:25):
All the best bits from the Mic Hosking breakfast on
News Talks d be in a sillier package. I am
Glen Hart and today we're talking AI. We've got to
talk AI every day. We've got to do AI every week,
more and more AI all the time. The Robot Apocalypse,
it's on. It's happening well mark the week. It's Friday.
Regardless of whether the robots are in charge, We're still
(00:46):
going to do it because it's Friday.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Mike has become a streaming expert, would you believe?
Speaker 4 (00:55):
And he also has some expert reviews on the Odyssey,
even though he's got no intention to go and see it.
But first up, England lost yesterday, and I think it's
worth lamenting that.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
A little bit, just just really rub it in.
Speaker 5 (01:11):
I think so this time yesterday England won the up
and I said on this program, this time yesterday when
England were won, Neil up, do you close down the
game or do you go for it? Sammy, Sammy nodded
his head so hard to close down the game.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
It was unbelievable.
Speaker 5 (01:24):
He nodded his head so hard as head almost fell off, And.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
I said no.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
I said, you go out and you get three more,
and you put your foot on the throat and you
tell those Argie Bargies what the story is and you
send the message to the Spaniards. So I'm reading the
reviews yesterday about Sam's approach to football, and I'm reading
a proven winner with a ruthless streak. Tuckle was seen
as the right kind of different, but because of his background,
if things went wrong, he would not be given any grace.
And so it proved. The consensus from the England football
(01:51):
commentariat is that Tuckle committed the fatal sin of tactical cowardice,
that he bottled the semi final, and that England's failure
was down to him and him alone.
Speaker 3 (02:04):
Does it go on to say, this is known as
Sami syndrome.
Speaker 5 (02:07):
It's Sami syndrome. It's when you're leading, never panic, never
close it down, never run for the hills. Semi syndrome.
Remember where you heard it first?
Speaker 4 (02:17):
Yeah, I mean someone's always got to be to blame,
don't they obviously we didn't do enough of semi syndrome.
Probably you could argue, you know, we were ahead and
all our gains until we weren't so or is that
or did we do semi syndrome?
Speaker 3 (02:36):
I'm not.
Speaker 4 (02:37):
I'm just going to keep blaming semi syndrome for all
sorts of things from now on.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
The rewrap.
Speaker 4 (02:41):
Okay, time for an AI update, because otherwise I'll get.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
In trouble with the robots.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
I presume, like I work for consulting firm, we're doing
a lot of work to empower our customer workflows with AI.
My observation is that AI is not replacing jobs. It's
a remarkable observation to make. It's bringing capabilities to people,
fringing up others from mundane work to focus on higher
value work that requires human expertise and experience. It's an enabler,
not a replacement. I want to desperately agree with you,
(03:10):
but I know you're wrong. Now, you may well be
right in your specific area. I'm sure you're right in
your specific area, and that's an aspect of AI. But
there is no question, and the numbers back it up.
There is absolutely no question that AI is killing jobs
and You've seen literally tens of thousands this year alone,
mainly in America and mainly in the tech sector, of
(03:31):
people literally losing their jobs. They are out the door.
Speaker 2 (03:35):
What was it? Was it? Meta? This week? Who does Xbox? Who? Microsoft?
Speaker 5 (03:40):
So Microsoft decided that a whole bunch of them can
go from Xbox. They can't believe it. Apparently they never
saw it coming a minute. But so it's a little
bit of both. I mean, potentially AI is going to
replace me. It won't in my lifetime, but potentially it will.
But so I'm sort of hanging on by a thread
until they work out how to.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
You know, we're not thinking of it as replacing you.
We're thinking of it as extending you, or enhancing it,
extending you into the future.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
Were polishing up the program.
Speaker 4 (04:06):
Beyond your organic Basically, we're looking for a seamless transition
between Hosking as he is now and maybe, you know,
hark back to Hosking in his prime. If we can
just get a few more tweaks happening to that, we'll
just train that l LM.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
A little bit more and we should be ready to
roll that out and roll him away.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
I'll tell you what I wish there was an AI
he could do mark the week because it's very stressful
time now.
Speaker 5 (04:36):
To make the week little piece of news and current events.
It's as popular as the headspace the Iranians are currently
occupying in Trump's brain. Insid ink seven.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Encouraging week.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
I heard Gareth Kernan earlier, but manufacturing services confidence all
up slowly but surely ain slowly but surely Mody eighteen
That was quite the thing in a world where many
leaders are disliked, of not hated, Mody packs of stadium like.
He's Olivia Rodrigo and there is a bottom line for
us and an upside as well, So it's all good.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Act eight. I think there is a perception problem a lot.
Speaker 5 (05:04):
Of us, well, a lot of it's yet to unfold.
But I'll tell you what the Paul Henry move this
week so looks like a stroke of political genius, doesn't it,
Paul Henry himself.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Seven.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
What I would not like to see is a really
strong New Zealand.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
First, you know what I like people who don't need
to do stuff, doing stuff that's laudable.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
The World Cup eight.
Speaker 5 (05:21):
There isn't an economically associated story I have read and
I've read many now that hasn't been glowing and or
upbeat about it all. It has been a massive success.
Construction six. Read Tony Alexander's analysis this week. Noah is
not a boom, he says, but the ingredients are the
post election for some hammers to fly. So I was
encouraged by that Cathay pissphi more flights and seats into
(05:45):
christ Church are more than counters Hawaii's or Hawaiian's cancelation
of Auckland to Honolulu hashtags wings and roundabouts. Matthew Paynes eight.
I mean that guy is now leading in just his
third year the Supercow's Championship. He's not only doing well,
he's leading the whole championship. Brendan McCullum six. On balance,
he's been a nit gain I reckon for England cricket
(06:07):
and he's kept sixty six percent. It was jobs and
that's yeah, class hulfull way of looking at that school
holiday six. Who doesn't know?
Speaker 2 (06:13):
Here's the quest?
Speaker 5 (06:14):
Who doesn't know? Eleven people who weren't in the office
this week it's been ridiculous. The DHL Exporters report this
week seven headline read like it was a war zone,
and yet look at how we're actually doing. Maybe we're
good when the going gets tough. Maybe that's the message
z energy seven. Release the paperwork the PM lost over
the climate lawd change and blow me down. If there
isn't anything to see, presumably those who got all breathless
(06:35):
can now stand down. Starma four goodbye Yeah to hear
him leaves was an exercise and self important gibberish. He
lasted five minutes, cocked it up to the point they
knifed him. Give the man the legion of honor. The
ab seven two from two first real tests of the season,
count wait the worries eight The was at home for
the first time in a while to slay a dragon
(06:55):
and continue making there's our yeah exactly, and that's the
week copies on the website. New stats show, by the way,
that marking the week played at least some role in
seventy six percent of school holiday programs over the last
two weeks.
Speaker 4 (07:06):
I feel like I quite a good job of that
mark the week.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
What do you reckon?
Speaker 4 (07:13):
My rate is of doing perfectly executed mark for weeks,
but I get about one out of every ten. Right
do you reckon?
Speaker 1 (07:23):
That?
Speaker 4 (07:23):
Would it be that high.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
You know, I think of that a I would do
a bit of job the rewrapping. Right.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
When it comes to streaming, nobody knows more about it
or more expert with the technical side of it than
Mike Husking.
Speaker 3 (07:37):
Of course we all know that.
Speaker 5 (07:38):
Funnily enough, there was a I finally got to the
season four and five of Hacks. And my great success
of the week, and I'm so proud of this is
I tuned and burned for the first time ever on
a streaming service.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
I've never done it in my life. But we got.
Speaker 5 (07:55):
Katie storms through the house last weekend and she I
don't know where it came from, but she goes, I've
made an executive decision. We're getting We're getting Hayu. We're
paying for Hayu. I don't care what it costs.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
We're doing it. And we're watching Hacks season four and five. Now.
Speaker 5 (08:07):
I didn't end up watching season four and five because
I don't have time to just sit around all day
watching comedy programs. But I did watch a couple of shows,
including the finale, and.
Speaker 3 (08:15):
At the end of it, don't tell me I haven't
watched it yet.
Speaker 5 (08:18):
Oh okay, we got a seven day free trial. So
we got the seven day free trial, and so we
had to watch it within a week, and the week
turned up to finish last night, and so we got.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
To the end of it. Good ending, by the way,
so now you've got it. Doesn't do in it.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
It could have been a dumb endings well.
Speaker 5 (08:38):
Sister in law said, tears. She said, there's tears, good sing. No,
there aren't tears. There aren't tears. She says, tears.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
I said, where are the tears.
Speaker 5 (08:47):
There's no tears here, and she goes something like, because
you're a hard ass. Anyway, point being, at the end
of watching the final we turned off the auto renew.
We turned off the auto indeo, which I didn't even
know what this was. When I say I did this,
I did none of this. Obviously Katie did this. She
turned off the auto renew.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
I mean, but you almost sound like you know what
you're talking about.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
She was saying it out loud, and I think, oh,
I must tell the story on the radio. Make me
sound like I know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
I've taket some notes.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
I'll write it.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
With my pin.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
Do you know what hey you says to you when
you turn off auto renew. It says in turning off
auto renew, you won't be able to access below deck,
and I'm thinking, hmm, tough choice. So anyway, we watch
the finals two seasons of Hacks for free, and I
feel like I've won something at long last.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
You you hacked Hacks.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
I hacked Tacks exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
That is the danger, isn't it when you're a streaming
service with let's say limited content. I mean, I haven't
had a good look at Hayu, so I don't know
exactly what they've got, but I.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Think I'm aware of two programs that they have. If
you do offer a trial period, yeah, you do run
the resk.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Of people just watching those two programs and then logging
off again, don't.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You three wrap?
Speaker 4 (10:07):
So yeah, that's something that a Husk sort of watched.
It sounds like he watched bits and pieces of it.
He's never going near this one though.
Speaker 5 (10:15):
I've got reviews on Odyssey. I'm not going to go
see Odyssey, and it's entirely possible I will never see Odyssey,
but it seems to be I read the reviews of
the reviews and the reviews of the reviews. It's everything.
It's the usual thing. I'll work you through it individually,
but it's the usual thing. It appears to be as
big as the buzz, and it appears to be changing cinema,
(10:36):
and you will never feel the same again. And the
world has now materially changed.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Bloody blah blah blah.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Telegraph Film of the Year, metro change Cinema Forever the Times,
A masterpiece in every way, standard colossal piece of cinema.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
So those are the reviews.
Speaker 5 (10:54):
The reviews of the reviews opened here yesterday.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
If you're interested now, Yeah, I don't think there's much
chance of Mike ever watching any Christopher Nolan film ever. Like,
I mean, he didn't do Oppenheimer, even though everybody in
the world went to there. It's probably the closest he
would have come would have been Dunkirk, the war movie,
(11:22):
but he didn't, I know, he didn't watch that. And
then Semi's in where we started with Semi Syndrome says
to me, I surely saw inception, and I just it's
like he says things like that sometimes, and it's just like,
when what universe does Mike Hosking go to the movie
or watch a movie which is based the narrative as
(11:47):
people going inside people's dreams and then effectively time traveling
once they get inside those dreams, and then just go
inside the dreams of the people who are in the dreams,
thereby bending time and space. How would anybody ever convince
(12:10):
Mike asking.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
To do that? See semi syndrom. I tell you it's
a thing, and you've got to look out for it.
It could strike at any time. Maybe it'll strike on Monday.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
We'll recommence proceedings then and find.

She was saying it out loud, and I think, oh,
I must tell the story on the radio. Make me
sound like I know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
I've taket some notes.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
I'll write it.
Speaker 3 (09:12):
With my pin.
Speaker 5 (09:14):
Do you know what hey you says to you when
you turn off auto renew. It says in turning off
auto renew, you won't be able to access below deck,
and I'm thinking, hmm, tough choice. So anyway, we watch
the finals two seasons of Hacks for free, and I
feel like I've won something at long last.
Speaker 3 (09:35):
You you hacked Hacks.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
I hacked Tacks exactly.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (09:38):
That is the danger, isn't it when you're a streaming
service with let's say limited content. I mean, I haven't
had a good look at Hayu, so I don't know
exactly what they've got, but I.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Think I'm aware of two programs that they have. If
you do offer a trial period, yeah, you do run
the resk.
Speaker 4 (10:02):
Of people just watching those two programs and then logging
off again, don't.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
You three wrap?
Speaker 4 (10:07):
So yeah, that's something that a Husk sort of watched.
It sounds like he watched bits and pieces of it.
He's never going near this one though.
Speaker 5 (10:15):
I've got reviews on Odyssey. I'm not going to go
see Odyssey, and it's entirely possible I will never see Odyssey,
but it seems to be I read the reviews of
the reviews and the reviews of the reviews. It's everything.
It's the usual thing. I'll work you through it individually,
but it's the usual thing. It appears to be as
big as the buzz, and it appears to be changing cinema,
(10:36):
and you will never feel the same again. And the
world has now materially changed.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Bloody blah blah blah.
Speaker 5 (10:42):
Telegraph Film of the Year, metro change Cinema Forever the Times,
A masterpiece in every way, standard colossal piece of cinema.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
So those are the reviews.
Speaker 5 (10:54):
The reviews of the reviews opened here yesterday.
Speaker 4 (10:57):
If you're interested now, Yeah, I don't think there's much
chance of Mike ever watching any Christopher Nolan film ever. Like,
I mean, he didn't do Oppenheimer, even though everybody in
the world went to there. It's probably the closest he
would have come would have been Dunkirk, the war movie,
(11:22):
but he didn't, I know, he didn't watch that. And
then Semi's in where we started with Semi Syndrome says
to me, I surely saw inception, and I just it's
like he says things like that sometimes, and it's just like,
when what universe does Mike Hosking go to the movie
or watch a movie which is based the narrative as
(11:47):
people going inside people's dreams and then effectively time traveling
once they get inside those dreams, and then just go
inside the dreams of the people who are in the dreams,
thereby bending time and space. How would anybody ever convince
(12:10):
Mike asking.
Speaker 3 (12:10):
To do that? See semi syndrom. I tell you it's
a thing, and you've got to look out for it.
It could strike at any time. Maybe it'll strike on Monday.
Speaker 4 (12:19):
We'll recommence proceedings then and find.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Out the rerad or rerap.
