Speaker 3 (00:15):
Check Thursday with the Marsha Collier who joins me now
in studio.
Speaker 2 (00:19):
Good evening, Marshall. Always great to see you.
Speaker 4 (00:21):
Hi, Mo.
Speaker 5 (00:21):
How are you doing?
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Hi?
Speaker 5 (00:22):
Everybody?
Speaker 3 (00:23):
Did you do that intentionally? Are you dressing to match
your screen? Insert? Bring that back, Dan and so people
can see it. It can't be see that's that's not
a coincidence.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
You plan that.
Speaker 4 (00:34):
Well, No, I'm running out of solid clothing because I'll
come in here with like patterns and you know Matisse's
paintings on clothes, because but you're when you're on camera,
you're supposed to have solid colors.
Speaker 5 (00:47):
So I have all these colors.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
It looks nice on you, But we didn't bring you
in to talk about your fashion, although it suits you.
Amazon is back into the listening game once again. Beyond Alexi,
What are they doing now? What dastardly deed are they
up to?
Speaker 4 (01:03):
I mean, have you ever had a day where at
the end of the day you just sit down, says Gosh.
I just wish I could remember what Tuala said to me,
we were talking about something really interesting.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
That happens to me about maybe two three times a week.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Okay, so that happens. I mean when we came up here,
Tuala and my husband were talking about their new Balanced sneakers.
They were talking about shoes. What I wouldn't have given
to have a recording device with.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
They're both new Balance, that's what they do.
Speaker 5 (01:31):
So it's their shoes.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
So this device, it's like a band, you know, like
I have a fitness band, but it's not a fitness band.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
It records everything.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
It'll be bring truly authentic augentic AI.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
To more customers if I understand you correctly.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
There's gonna be a band on my wrist, beyond my phone,
beyond my Alexa, which is listening to everything that I say,
the conversations I have, any musings I may have with
your husband, and then what happens with that information.
Speaker 4 (02:11):
Well, at the end of the day, you'll get reminders
and suggestions and personalized summaries of your day. I mean, ooh,
this is just beyond the company that sold it to Amazon.
Speaker 5 (02:25):
They said.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
When we started, the company was named b We imagined
a world where AI is truly personal, where your life
is understood and enhanced by technology that learns with you.
So you see, now you'll have something on your wrist
that listens to everything you have to say.
Speaker 3 (02:47):
And all the things, even when I'm cussing in my
car and people driving by me.
Speaker 4 (02:52):
And it'll get smarter and it'll get to know you
and be able to make suggestions during your day.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
I want suggestions unless I ask for a suggestion, like
in other words, where's the nearest flame broiler?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
I don't want a suggestion out of nowhere.
Speaker 5 (03:09):
There's no asking this.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
Alexa does that because I'll say I don't want to
say because that'll trigger someone's Alexa. But if you say Alexa,
do X y Z every four or five commands, it'll
give a suggestion.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
I'm trying to say, like, shut the hell.
Speaker 4 (03:23):
Up right exactly exactly, so this you get. No, you
don't get to interact with it. It is merely there
as augentic, which means it has its own agency. It
will just record and work for you and learn from
you so it can give you better advice on things.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Yeah. See, I don't know if I want a re
hash of my day.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Maybe there was something that I really didn't appreciate happening,
and I don't want to have to relive and I
don't need to memorialize in some way.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
Well maybe after a month or so, you know, you'll
turn to this device and it'll say, hey, mo, today,
kind of remind me of the day three weeks ago
when you got that d and it'll draw a little
analogy for you and be able to help you learn
how to cope with things.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
Yeah. I love technology, but I'm not loving this.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Well, this is a deal.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
The startup launch this fitbit like device last year. It's
forty nine ninety nine for the bracelet. That's it, no biggie,
but it's nineteen dollars a month for the monthly subscription. Now,
if you wonder where you're doing, wait.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Wait, wait, do not run past that. There's a monthly
subscription too.
Speaker 5 (04:45):
Oh yeah, Well, you know it's got to hold all
that data, and where do you think it's going to go.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
It's going to be sold to someone.
Speaker 5 (04:53):
Well, they're saying our goal is to make be smarter
without ever requiring access to your personal data.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
I don't know sure that makes me feel better.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
The company's website states, adding the that none of the
data is sold or used for AI learning.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
But let me be super cynical real quick before we
go to break.
Speaker 3 (05:17):
Sometimes I know that sometimes companies will buy smaller companies
because they just don't want that technology out there. They
want it to at least be proprietary to in this
case Amazon. But I do get the sense they want
this smaller company to be successful because of the data
collection alone.
Speaker 4 (05:37):
Or how about they want to take the technology bury
this device and put it into Alexa, which is in
how many televisions right now?
Speaker 2 (05:48):
Billions? I don't know.
Speaker 5 (05:49):
Yeah, you gotta think about it.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
We're gonna think about that during the break when we
come back. I know that I have a bunch of
old compututers and maybe some cell phones and tablets, just
old tech that I probably want to recycle, but I
don't know the right way to go about it. They're
just literally stacked up in the corner in my office.
Speaker 4 (06:11):
The amount of technology we all have sitting around stacked
up under the under a bench in the garage.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Yeah, you got thoughts and tips for that.
Speaker 5 (06:20):
I got answers, Marcia.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Collier when we come back, answers on what to do
with your old technology. It's Later with mo Kelly. Tech
Thursday with Marshall Callier. We're live everywhere on social media
and the iHeartRadio app.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
You're listening to Later with mo Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
I Am six forty. It's Later with mo Kelly.
Speaker 3 (06:40):
We're still live everywhere on social media and still joining
me in studio. Is the nice tech lady as they're
calling you in the Motown Chat Marsha Collier, our resident
tech guru.
Speaker 2 (06:50):
How about that, Marsha.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
A common question that I have not only for myself,
but I hear from others. It's like, look, I have
four different phones, becau because I don't throw them away,
don't want to give them away because it has data
or might have pictures. I may use it as a
spare drive on occasion. I have an old printer, have
a computer, laptop, it's it's dead, but it still has
data on it.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
What should I do with them?
Speaker 4 (07:13):
Well, frankly, I'm with you on phones. I'm not giving
away my phones. I think we should have a Thursday
Night we all bring in all our old phones and
compare you know what we have, because old phones are
cool when you go back and look at them. They're
just spectacular, but.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
They're useful in my house. Some of them I use
as cameras or a drive. It's like a drive cameras
like a security camera. There are ways that I can
utilize them that I don't need to really, they don't
need to have the latest software for everything.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
But those old big computers, Yes, what do I do
with it? And the printers, Oh my goodness. I mean,
if you go way back, they were sturdily built. You
couldn't take a sledgehammer and break the plastic. Yeah, everybody,
and you know it's you somewhere in your house.
Speaker 5 (08:02):
You've got this stack of old tech.
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Now.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
I know the city of la has a lot of
electronic waste pickup, which is all well and good, but
you know, you get a postcard in the mail You're
going to have electronic waste pick up six months in
the future, aren't we great? And you forget by the
time it happens. We went to one once and it
was a little drive through. You hand the stuff out
(08:27):
the window of the guy, keep going, keep going. You
know it was a great, great city thing. But let
me tell you how to do it for free. Okay,
have you been into a best Buy lately.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
No, I have it not in at least six months.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Well, they will take up to three household items, including toasters,
because technically you can't throw those in the trash per
house can't. I'm kidding, I'm so naive. No, off, you
can't put those in the trash and e readers, everything,
(09:08):
everything technology, three per household per day. But if you've
got laptops, they will take up to five.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Let me ask you this.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
That's fine that they'll take it, but what should I
do in advance of giving it to them?
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Okay, what I do when I get rid of things
like this, first thing I do is delete all the data,
just the manual delete. I go to the directories and
the folders and the whole thing, and I manually delete everything.
Then I I know you're supposed to go to the
original state right away, but then I sign out. I
(09:47):
delete all the programs that I've installed on said device,
and then I take I sign out of Google.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
You'll you'll do all of that instead of why not
just just.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Wipe the drive or reset and start over.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
I've kind of wiped it because after I've signed out
a Google, I go to factory reset and we're done.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Okay, so you but all those steps I don't.
Speaker 5 (10:15):
I don't want to take a risk.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
And what I did do is, you know, Google, just
like Apple, has this service where you find your device. Now,
I did give a device to somebody when I was
working on my last book and they were helping me, and.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
I felt very nervous about it.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
So I did all that stuff and I sent it
to him and then I'm looking for because it's still
on Where's my device?
Speaker 5 (10:40):
For some reason?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Right?
Speaker 4 (10:41):
That made me very nervous where is it? And then
Google couldn't find it on the network.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Let me just say this, I've had find my device
for some time. It's not super reliable because there are
times where I've lost my phone, like around the house
type of thing. And that's the time I'm saying, let
me just see.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
What will do?
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Do you play the music?
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
And sometimes that's part of it is in a lot
of times it doesn't happen. One time, I actually bought
a second phone because I thought my phone was stolen
because I was doing to find my device and it
wasn't ringing my phone like I was supposed to. I
later found the phone four weeks later in my car
under one of the seats.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
But I've already already purchased a replacement. So that's what's
the find my device. I like it when it works,
but not.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
All and it works, you know, that's the whole thing
about tech. Do you know any tech that works perfectly
every time?
Speaker 5 (11:39):
Starlink?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
No, No, I don't.
Speaker 5 (11:42):
Starlink was out today.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
No, I'm just saying that's and that's the trade off.
I need something to be relatively reliable.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Well that's about as reliable as we're going to get.
And the new devices they're having as trackers are being
updated and the network is getting better. But I noticed
my husband's an iPhone person, Michael, Well, you know, perfect.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
It gives us something to chat about.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
But anyway, I can tell when he's at the gym
because there are Android people over there. It works as
long as there's Android people off of Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's strange or it's a little scary, yeah, Or if
you're near a tower where Android people are pinging, there
(12:30):
might he's showing you. That's a Chipolo card that he
keeps in his wallet, and I can find him. But anyway,
let me give you real quick. Everybody can know so
Best Buy, we'll take it back off his depot, that empty,
empty place that you go. There are very few of
them left, but you definitely can recycle stuff there. And
(12:53):
if you don't want to go, they program in the
store and you might get a store gift card and
exchange depending on what you're returning. They also have boxes
that you can pay like eight dollars or so that
hold up to twenty pounds and send it to them.
And they have boxes that you can buy up to
(13:14):
sixty pounds to send them printers and just get rid
of stuff. But I'm not paying to get rid of
my stuff. Consider donating it to Earth.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
Nine to one one.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
They take mobile phones, they take all kinds of things.
You'd have to look up what you're getting rid of.
But you know, I think best by now Apple. If
you're buying a new computer, they will graciously take your
old computers.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Oh so you spend four thousand dollars, they'll take the
old one off your hands.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
That's very nice of them.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Yeah, I think so. I think, what a great service.
It's just for the people. It's crazy. But office Depot
and Staples, you can bring your stuff in there. They
will dispose of it and occasion, city of Los Angeles,
your city where you are. Google it see if they
have an electronic recovery pickup day.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
Marsha Collier.
Speaker 3 (14:08):
Once again, great information, simple enough for folks like me
to understand. And I know there's more where that came from.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
You plan that.

Speaker 5 (00:47):
So I have all these colors.
Speaker 3 (00:49):
It looks nice on you, But we didn't bring you
in to talk about your fashion, although it suits you.
Amazon is back into the listening game once again. Beyond Alexi,
What are they doing now? What dastardly deed are they
up to?
Speaker 4 (01:03):
I mean, have you ever had a day where at
the end of the day you just sit down, says Gosh.
I just wish I could remember what Tuala said to me,
we were talking about something really interesting.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
That happens to me about maybe two three times a week.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
Okay, so that happens. I mean when we came up here,
Tuala and my husband were talking about their new Balanced sneakers.
They were talking about shoes. What I wouldn't have given
to have a recording device with.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
They're both new Balance, that's what they do.
Speaker 5 (01:31):
So it's their shoes.
Speaker 4 (01:33):
So this device, it's like a band, you know, like
I have a fitness band, but it's not a fitness band.
Speaker 5 (01:42):
It records everything.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
It'll be bring truly authentic augentic AI.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
To more customers if I understand you correctly.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
There's gonna be a band on my wrist, beyond my phone,
beyond my Alexa, which is listening to everything that I say,
the conversations I have, any musings I may have with
your husband, and then what happens with that information.

Speaker 4 (02:52):
And it'll get smarter and it'll get to know you

Speaker 4 (08:05):
I know the city of la has a lot of
electronic waste pickup, which is all well and good, but
you know, you get a postcard in the mail You're
going to have electronic waste pick up six months in
the future, aren't we great? And you forget by the
time it happens. We went to one once and it
was a little drive through. You hand the stuff out
(08:27):
the window of the guy, keep going, keep going. You
know it was a great, great city thing. But let
me tell you how to do it for free. Okay,
have you been into a best Buy lately.
Speaker 2 (08:40):
No, I have it not in at least six months.
Speaker 4 (08:43):
Well, they will take up to three household items, including toasters,
because technically you can't throw those in the trash per
house can't. I'm kidding, I'm so naive. No, off, you
can't put those in the trash and e readers, everything,
(09:08):
everything technology, three per household per day. But if you've
got laptops, they will take up to five.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
Let me ask you this.
Speaker 3 (09:20):
That's fine that they'll take it, but what should I
do in advance of giving it to them?
Speaker 4 (09:25):
Okay, what I do when I get rid of things
like this, first thing I do is delete all the data,
just the manual delete. I go to the directories and
the folders and the whole thing, and I manually delete everything.
Then I I know you're supposed to go to the
original state right away, but then I sign out. I
(09:47):
delete all the programs that I've installed on said device,
and then I take I sign out of Google.
Speaker 3 (09:56):
You'll you'll do all of that instead of why not
just just.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
Wipe the drive or reset and start over.
Speaker 4 (10:03):
I've kind of wiped it because after I've signed out
a Google, I go to factory reset and we're done.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Okay, so you but all those steps I don't.
Speaker 5 (10:15):
I don't want to take a risk.
Speaker 4 (10:17):
And what I did do is, you know, Google, just
like Apple, has this service where you find your device. Now,
I did give a device to somebody when I was
working on my last book and they were helping me, and.
Speaker 5 (10:32):
I felt very nervous about it.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
So I did all that stuff and I sent it
to him and then I'm looking for because it's still
on Where's my device?
Speaker 5 (10:40):
For some reason?
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Right?
Speaker 4 (10:41):
That made me very nervous where is it? And then
Google couldn't find it on the network.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Let me just say this, I've had find my device
for some time. It's not super reliable because there are
times where I've lost my phone, like around the house
type of thing. And that's the time I'm saying, let
me just see.
Speaker 2 (11:02):
What will do?
Speaker 5 (11:03):
Do you play the music?
Speaker 2 (11:04):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (11:05):
And sometimes that's part of it is in a lot
of times it doesn't happen. One time, I actually bought
a second phone because I thought my phone was stolen
because I was doing to find my device and it
wasn't ringing my phone like I was supposed to. I
later found the phone four weeks later in my car
under one of the seats.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
But I've already already purchased a replacement. So that's what's
the find my device. I like it when it works,
but not.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
All and it works, you know, that's the whole thing
about tech. Do you know any tech that works perfectly
every time?
Speaker 5 (11:39):
Starlink?
Speaker 2 (11:41):
No, No, I don't.
Speaker 5 (11:42):
Starlink was out today.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
No, I'm just saying that's and that's the trade off.
I need something to be relatively reliable.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
Well that's about as reliable as we're going to get.
And the new devices they're having as trackers are being
updated and the network is getting better. But I noticed
my husband's an iPhone person, Michael, Well, you know, perfect.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
It gives us something to chat about.
Speaker 4 (12:08):
But anyway, I can tell when he's at the gym
because there are Android people over there. It works as
long as there's Android people off of Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
that's strange or it's a little scary, yeah, Or if
you're near a tower where Android people are pinging, there
(12:30):
might he's showing you. That's a Chipolo card that he
keeps in his wallet, and I can find him. But anyway,
let me give you real quick. Everybody can know so
Best Buy, we'll take it back off his depot, that empty,
empty place that you go. There are very few of
them left, but you definitely can recycle stuff there. And
(12:53):
if you don't want to go, they program in the
store and you might get a store gift card and
exchange depending on what you're returning. They also have boxes
that you can pay like eight dollars or so that
hold up to twenty pounds and send it to them.
And they have boxes that you can buy up to
(13:14):
sixty pounds to send them printers and just get rid
of stuff. But I'm not paying to get rid of
my stuff. Consider donating it to Earth.
Speaker 5 (13:24):
Nine to one one.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
They take mobile phones, they take all kinds of things.
You'd have to look up what you're getting rid of.
But you know, I think best by now Apple. If
you're buying a new computer, they will graciously take your
old computers.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Oh so you spend four thousand dollars, they'll take the
old one off your hands.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
That's very nice of them.
Speaker 4 (13:46):
Yeah, I think so. I think, what a great service.
It's just for the people. It's crazy. But office Depot
and Staples, you can bring your stuff in there. They
will dispose of it and occasion, city of Los Angeles,
your city where you are. Google it see if they
have an electronic recovery pickup day.
