What could be better than hearing about one of the Brothers’ struggles with technology-related issues?... That’s right, hearing about struggles from both Brothers! Well, if hearing us vent about our frustrations is your thing…this episode is for you. From Brian’s near-nightmare scamming situation…to Alan’s unwilling exploration of the inner workings of an Apple Watch, you will get your fill of self-loathing. But, have no fear…not only have we sprinkled some BiTS (Brothers in Tech Suggestions) and lessons-learned to liven things up…we also introduce you to an AI chat that might just become your best friend. 

Products/Apps/Services mentioned in this episode:

  • pi.ai: Your personal AI assistant, friend, and sounding board. Be careful…this one can be addictive.
  • iFixIt: A great source for all things DIY tech fixes. Although, you might want to listen to the episode first before jumping in…
  • Artifact: AI-based news aggregator app with a really nice design and interesting features (e.g., AI summaries, audio playback)


Your Hosts:

Alan Jackson (the older Brother) is a producer of online content with Jackson Creative and survey researcher with Jackson Insight.

Brian Jackson (the younger Brother) is an Associate Professor of Kinesiology at Pacific University and Product Director/Consultant at Senaptec, Inc.
