(upbeat music)

- Here we go.

It's the Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL.

These might be the most leaked phones in history

but nothing can replace actually using the things

for a week which I have

and I can tell you right up front

that they're great and the resolve a lot

of the small complaints that people have had

about the Pixel 2.

There's a lot to talk about here.

There's two sizes, a camera that has to live up

to last year's Pixel 2.

There's a big notch on the Pixel 3.

There's the screens, there's wireless charging

and there's price for what feels like a pretty small update

compared to last year

there's a surprising amount of stuff

to get into, so let's get into it.

First I wanna talk about what might be

the most important improvement on the Pixel 3.

The one that's gonna have the biggest impact

on your daily experience with it

and that is the screen.

The screen on both the Pixel 3 and the Pixel 3 XL

are massive improvements over last year's phones.

We're still looking at OLEDs here

but they're bigger on both phones

and simply the biggest most important change

is the color quality and the brightness,

especially on the Pixel 3 XL.

Last year's Pixel 2 XL felt like you were

looking at colors through, like, parchment paper

but that problem is 100% gone now.

The screen is brighter, the reds are redder

and everything just pops more.

It's not Samsung levels of color saturation

or iPhone Xs levels of brightness and contrast

but it's finally where it should be for a phone

that can cost as much as $1000.

The smaller Pixel 3 it also has a great screen

but it's not as dramatic an improvement

since the smaller Pixel 2 wasn't so bad.

Then there's the notch on the Pixel 3 XL.

Yes, it's big, like super big

and because it's so tall it makes the whole screen

look sort of doofy.

Doofier than it looks on the iPhone X

and also it looks like a face?

Okay, I'm sorry I'm not really

gonna make you have this thing on the video

but I will tell you that it does sort of

go away when you use the phone and it does look

much less annoying in person than it does in photos

but anyway, the game, the whole game here is just this,

did Google justify the notch

with the features that you get for it?

So let's just go through what you get.

First you get more screen, but that doesn't necessarily mean

that you get more information.

In fact if you look at the status bar

you'll see that you have to turn off the battery percentage

in order to see all the status icons

and with the time on the other side

you can only see two notification icons.

Second, front facing speakers.

Google really, really believes in stereo

front facing speakers.

Two speakers means that this phone

also has a pretty big chin

and it's generally not very symmetrical, which I don't like.

Now, Google claims that it's speakers

are 40% louder this year

and I don't know that they're 40% louder

but I will say that they're 40% better.

There's much less distortion at high volume.

Third, you get a wide angle selfie camera.

Yes, look don't worry, we're gonna talk a lot more

about cameras later but my basic attitude

about that wide angle camera is kinda, shrug.

So, did Google justify the notch?

Sorta, face ID to me seems like a much better justification

but after using the Pixel 3 XL for just a little bit

I didn't notice the notch too much

and I really don't think it's a reason

to not get the big phone if you want the big phone

because once again the screen on these phones are great.

This year the build quality and just overall feel

of the Pixel is just really top notch.

I mean, okay it's really good.

Switching the back to glass gives you wireless charging.

Sure, but it also just makes

the whole thing feel more refined.

The seams around the aluminum rail are minimal

and the rear glass has this etched matte finish

that just feels awesome,

although the glass does make it feel a tad heavier.

I've said a lot of nice things about this matte glass

but there is one very serious problem,

stick this thing in your pocket with keys

and it's gonna get scuffed, if not scratched right away.

It happened to two of our phones,

we weren't rubbing the keys or anything it just happened.

You are absolutely going to need a case with this thing.

There are a ton of other just really nice subtle touches.

Like the haptics, they're way better now.

It's not quite as good as the iPhone

but the vibration is a lot subtler.

Instead of feeling like

you've got a hand buzzer or something.

Now, in terms of overall hardware quality

the Pixel 3, the small one is a bigger change.

It's finally really great now instead of feeling like

the cheap little step brother to the larger Pixel.

Neither model is quite as nice as say a Galaxy S9

but at least Google's in the ballpark now

and yes there is no headphone jack

and even though that's the way things go now

I still think it's a pain but the good news is

Google's finally including USB headphones in the box,

heck they even work with the USB ports on my Mac.

Wouldn't it be nice if everything was USBC?

Okay, we can't got there.

That's a whole other video.

Let's move on because I know what you've really

been waiting for.

You've been waiting to hear about the camera.

Let's do it.

(upbeat music)

The first thing to know

is that when it comes to hardware specs

Google didn't significantly change the equation

on the rear camera, it's still a 12.2 megapixel sensor

and there's still just one of them.

Honestly, it's pretty much the same as last year

but that doesn't mean that the pictures are the same.

Google's made a bunch of software updates

to improve how the photos come out.

Google's still doing its HGR plus thing

where it takes a bunch of photos

and then computationally combines them

into a single better image, but over the past year

the company's just gotten better at it

and better at using the dedicated pixel visual core

image processing chip and it's using all of those images

to create a whole bunch of new camera features.

Here's the thing.

We've seen lots of companies announce lots

of weird camera features for smart phones

and almost all of them end up being gimmicks

that you just try once and then you ignore forever after.

So the big question for the Pixel

is whether these new features are just gimmicks

or if they'll be something you'll actually use.

Top shot, it uses machine learning

to detect blinks and bad photos

and will suggest better ones from your bursts

or you can choose one later if you want to.

It works pretty well in my testing

and even though we've seen this feature

on other cameras before I think Google

does a better job of recognizing good shots.

Motion auto focus it works super well

on both photo and video, it tracks your subject

and keeps a focus on them.

We didn't shoot a ton of video but I will say

as far as video goes I do think the new stereo mics

are better now than that awful mic

that was on the Pixel 2.

Next is super res zoom.

From a technical perspective it's wild.

Google uses your handshake to grab extra data

when you're zoomed in.

They claim you don't even need a telephoto lens

and I don't think it's quite as good

as a proper telephoto lens.

It's better than the digital zoom on the Pixel 2 for sure

but it will get you something usable

where before it was garbage,

and usable doesn't mean great.

Another feature's called, night sight

and it seems technically impressive

creating photos in the dark that you'd never get otherwise

but we can't test it until it comes out later this year.

Then there's all the stuff

that I think is kind of in that gimmick zone.

Photo booth is basically a party game.

You turn the mode on and then you and your friends

watch a progress bar expand

and depending on whether or not you're smiling

it will take a picture.

Playground is just more AR stickers.

And then there's Google lens.

It is super cool to copy text directly out of an image

but I do not plan on doing my shopping

by pointing my camera at things.

And then lastly the one everyone's excited about

is group selfie feature.

Well, it does let you get more people into a selfie

when you zoom out

but you also end up with a bunch of weird distortion

from the wide angle lens and that's unavoidable

but for me I think of this as just another for fun feature.

Some of these features you're gonna use

and some you won't,

but a lot of them are just built in

instead of being in special modes

so I think most of these count as improvements

that really will matter to you.

But the real question, the obvious question,

are the photos better than they were in the Pixel 2

which had already beaten the iPhone Xs?

My answer is yes,

but that they also have a different style.

What do I mean?

Well, it's easiest to just look at some photos

so here's three photos all lined up.

What do we see here?

First, we see the Pixel 3 is doing a better job

than the Pixel 2 of getting detail out of the shadows.

But you can also see that the colors

are a little bit warmer.

Now, compared to the iPhone Xs it does feel to me

a little bit more true to life

where the iPhone is just doing everything that it can

to light everything evenly in a way that feels

kind of overdone.

Here's another comparison from the selfie cam.

The Pixel 3 again has much more detail

and the iPhone Xs really does look

a little bit over smoothed,

and the Pixel 2 it's right smack in the middle.

Last here's portrait mode

and I think all three look pretty good

but you can see that the Pixel 3 is more willing

to brighten up the shadows and soften the highlights

in the Pixel 2 but not nearly as much as the iPhone.

I prefer the Pixel 3 again because the iPhone,

I think it makes my face a little bit too soft

but I will say that the iPhone Xs does a better job

at tricky portrait situations

because it has that second lens.

The Pixel 3 just straight up duffed it on this photo.

Bottom line, for most shots the Pixel 3 is consistent.

It screws up less often than the Pixel 2

or the iPhone Xs.

On any given photo you might prefer one or the other

but on the whole I think the Pixel 3

has more restrained HDR and better looking photos

than the iPhone Xs.

Most of all I trust the Pixel 3 more.

The Pixel 2 was the best camera for all of last year

and it seems like the Pixel 3 is gonna be

the best camera for all of this year.

Alright, specs.

The Pixel 3 is pretty standard for high end Android phones.

It's got a snapdragon 845,

4 GB of RAM and 64 or 128 GB of storage.

All the usual stuff.

But the reason Pixel phones are generally better

isn't about the specs, it's about the software

and I think Google's done a good job

of optimizing here so far as I can tell.

Everything feels fast and smooth

and I haven't detected any real lag to speak of.

Battery life though it's pretty middle of the road.

You'll get through a day with either phone

but the big one should last a little bit longer.

There's really no major improvements here in other words.

But you do get wireless charging now and I love that.

It's a little thing but for me it's so much more convenient

than plugging in.

The Pixel 3 also ships with the digital wellbeing software

which helps you track your smartphone usage

and it has helped me cut down on Twitter a little bit

but mostly I just like that you can get a quick setting

right in your settings to turn the whole screen gray scale

whenever you want which is kind of weirdly soothing.

But the coolest new software thing

is this new call screening feature.

It has a duplex robot answer your calls for you

and speak for you and then you can read

a live transcription of what's being said

on your phone so that you can see if it's a spam call

and really I am totally

(phone rings)

impressed with how well it works.

- [Phone] Hi, the person you're calling

is using a screening service from Google

and will get a copy of this conversation.

Go ahead and say why you're calling.

- Hey Deeter, it's Neil.

I'm calling because I wanna talk to you.

- [Phone] Do you need to get ahold of them urgently?

- Yes.

- [Phone] Just so it's clear

go ahead and say more about why you're calling.

- It's because I'm Neil.

I'm you're friend and colleague and I'd like to talk to you.

- [Phone] They can't talk right now

but they'll give you a call later.

- Thanks robot.

- [Phone] Thanks, and goodbye.

(beeping)

- If you're worried about privacy you should know

that all this happens locally on the phone

and none of the transcripts are stored

or sent to Google at any point.

Just, you know what?

Don't use it on people you actually know

'cause that's actually kind of a jerk move.

Here's what I think Google did with the Pixel 3.

It made a list of everything that people

were unhappy with on both the Pixel 2 and the Pixel 2 XL

and then it tried to fix them.

The camera's less crunchy,

the screens are way better, the bezels are smaller

and yes, there is a notch but still,

the hardware overall is dramatically better.

That's why I think this years Pixels

are kind of like the iPhone S year upgrades.

They seem like small, unexciting improvements

but they make for a way better phone

than anybody will give them credit for.

These are simply great phones.

If I have one major complaint about the Pixel 3

it's the price.

It starts at 799 for the base Pixel 3

and the top tier, top storage Pixel 3 XL is a 1000 bucks.

Are they worth that much?

Well, yes they're top tier phones

with great cameras and specs and build quality

but you can get a lot of what these phones offer

for way less in the Android world.

Now, should you upgrade?

Well, that depends on what you have now.

If you have a Pixel 2

a lot of these features will come to you

via software update, and if you have an iPhone

well take a long look at your blue bubbles

and your iCloud photo groups

and have a think about how important they are to you.

But if you want the best Android experience

and the best camera you can get on a phone today

the Pixel 3 is it.

Thank you so much for watching, really appreciate it.

I had a lot of things to say about the Pixel 3.

Let me know in the comments,

are you thinking about getting a Pixel 3

and what's gonna make your decision for you?

And also Google announced a few other things

and we have a really great hands on

with the Chrome OS Pixel Slate Tablet

so you should check that out too.

Perfect Soft And Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipe | Delish Insanely Easy - Duration: 5:04.

- There's nothing better than a warm chocolate chip cookie.

I'm gonna show you how to make one right now.

So we're gonna start up with your butter.

That's two and a half sticks.

Softened to room temperature.

We've got one cup of brown sugar

and a half a cup of white sugar.

Now we're going to cream the butter and sugars together.

We're beating it until it's light and fluffy.

And when you're beating this, you're actually adding

some air into the butter and when the cookies bake

they'll bake a lot plumper and higher

because we've integrated that air, which is a good thing.

Brown sugar will give your cookies some chew.

While white sugar will give them some crispiness.

I prefer my cookies a little chewy so I like to go a little

heavy on the brown sugar.

So this is looking good.

We can start adding our vanilla and our eggs.

I'm gonna start with one egg at a time.

Just get them integrated evenly.

Egg number two.

And now we're gonna add our vanilla.

I'm using two teaspoons of vanilla.

This is a two teaspoon measure.

Pretty fancy.

I found that using cheap vanilla works just as well

as expensive vanilla in cookies.

I would save the nice stuff for ice cream

and other things where vanilla is taking center stage.

All right, so I'm gonna set our wet ingredients

to the side for now and we'll mix up our dry ingredients.

We have three ingredients going in our dry ingredients bowl.

Number one, flour.

This is just all-purpose flour.

Ingredient number two, baking soda.

And salt, last ingredient.

We call for three quarters of a teaspoon.

I like my cookies a little salty

so I'm gonna add a little extra.

Then we're just gonna whisk this to combine.

Now it's time to bring them together.

I'm just gonna add these.

You don't wanna add the whole thing yet.

And now the rest.

This is looking good.

Ready for the chocolate chips.

I like semi-sweet chocolate chips.

But you can do milk chocolate.

You could do dark chocolate.

You could chop up chocolate bars if you wanted,

that's really nice.

But you need chocolate

because it's chocolate chip cookie, okay?

Lovely.

So if you were gonna add nuts or dried fruit,

this would be the time to do it.

But we're just gonna keep it classic.

I think it's time to put these babies on a baking sheet

and get them in the oven.

Baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Another important tool I love is this little cookie scoop.

The best part about this is that when you're scooping

you're getting the exact same amount in every cookie

and then they bake evenly which is really important.

If you don't have one of these, try to make sure

that you're getting your scoops about the same size

so you can have an even bake.

Make sure you're giving your cookies a little bit of space.

About an inch or two because they're gonna spread

in the oven and you don't want them crowding on each other

and squishing into each other.

I almost forgot.

Something very important that we do a lot here at Delish.

It's sort of a little food styling tip.

We like to press chocolate chips onto the top of the cookies

before we bake them.

That way they just look extra abundant, full of chocolate.

It just makes them look a lot better.

We've had this oven preheated to 375 and these babies

are going in.

I'm gonna set the timer for 10 minutes.

They likely won't be done by them but I just wanna start

checking because you don't wanna burn your cookies.

See ya later.

So it's been 10 minutes.

I'm just gonna take a peek at them.

Eh, they're getting a little golden on the bottom

but not quite there yet.

I'm gonna give them a couple more minutes.

These look perfect.

Starting to get a little golden on the outside.

Still a little squishy on the inside.

But if you wait until they're completely brown

when they're in the oven,

when they cool and they continue cooking,

they're gonna get a little overcooked.

So it's better to pull them before

they're completely golden.

We're just gonna let these guys cool on the tray

for a couple minutes before we move them

to the cooling rack.

They smell incredible.

(sultry music)

Just dunk this in milk and I'm so excited.

(upbeat music)

Oh my God.

This is the perfect cookie

because it's loaded with chocolate.

It's got the caramelized crunchy edges.

They're chewy and soft in the middle.

It's just 10 out of 10.

Delicious.

This is the best day I've ever had at work.

(upbeat music)

Jared Kushner Has Paid ZERO Dollars In Taxes For Years - Duration: 3:42.

According to a major new report from the New York Times this past weekend, Jared Kushner,

son-in-law of Donald Trump and a senior advisor to the White House for some reason, likely

paid $0 of income tax for five of the last eight years.

Now this information was based on documents obtained by the New York Times, put together

with the help of Jared Kushner himself, because they were given to a company that Jared Kushner

was trying to get a loan from.

So they analyzed his tax returns, his tax filings, found out that he likely paid $0,

and here's the thing though, because this was prepared for an organization that that

Kushner was trying to get money from, either he didn't pay any federal taxes, or if he

lied to them about how much he'd paid, that would actually be a felony because you can't

lie to a lending institution that's considering loaning you millions of dollars.

But I think it's much more likely that Kushner, like so many other of the wealthy elite, here

in the United States, paid $0 in income tax.

Now the reason, according to New York Times, that Kushner was allowed to do this, was because

he claimed so much depreciation on properties that he owned in New York City, that that

depreciation actually outweighed the amount of money that he brought in.

Now this is a man who in the last few years, his net worth has quintupled to a grand total

of $324,000,000.

Jared Kushner is worth $324,000,000 and he's not paying income taxes.

But here's the thing, it's not just Jared Kushner.

I know it's easy to beat up on him because he's such a slime ball, but this is how the

wealthy elite in the United States, typically operate.

It's why we see some of the biggest corporations in the United States not paying any income

tax on any given year.

They claim depreciation, they try to write off as mch as possible, then when you look

at it on paper, it looks like the company suffered massive losses, which is the case

with Jared Kushner as well, when in reality they were pulling in millions upon millions

of dollars; they just understand how to use those tax loopholes so well, that they end

up paying zero.

Meanwhile, for the average income earner in this country, people like me and you, and

everybody else, we don't have all these loopholes, we have to pay exorbitant amounts of taxes

every year, and you know what?

It's actually okay that we have to do that, because those taxes pay for schools, and police

departments and fire departments and roads, and bridges and everything else in this country.

So you may not like paying taxes but they are absolutely necessary to keep this country

functioning.

But people like Jared Kushner are screwing the system, but more importantly, by screwing

the system , they're screwing every single one of us.

Because the next time that a school goes underfunded, and they can't buy new textbooks, or the next

time a bridge collapse here in the United States and it kills half a dozen people, you

can thank people like Jared Kushner, because if they were paying their tax dollars like

they're supposed to be, we wouldn't have near as many problems, with everything in this

country, cos we might actually have the money to fix it.

What's Most Exciting About Marijuana Stocks To Investors - Duration: 5:43.

Shannon Jones: Let's actually talk about what excites you most about the marijuana industry.

I'm really curious to hear your thoughts. Sean? Sean Williams: Yeah, I'll kick this one off.

There's a lot of marijuana stocks that have come out and given these huge pie-in-the-sky

figures of how much they're going to grow. 700,000, 500,000 kilograms.

But there's a lot more to marijuana than just growing it.

What I'm really interested in seeing, beyond just the sales figures, beyond just the expected

profitability, I want to see these companies differentiate themselves.

That, I think, is going to be the most exciting part.

Instead of seeing these companies grow traditional dried cannabis, what I'm looking forward to

is the cannabis alternatives.

By alternatives, I'm talking about vapes, I'm talking about cannabis oils, I'm talking

about edibles, infused beverages -- which have been incredibly popular over the last couple of weeks.

If you've watched any sort of market mover list, you've seen these companies at the top

of the list regardless of their size, all the way from Tilray down to New Age Beverages Corporation.

I'm really excited to see what they're going to be able to do, how they're going to differentiate

themselves, once these new forms of consumption are available.

What I will preface this with, and what I would remind investors at home, is that these

new alternatives, you won't see most of these hitting the market come October 17th.

Dried flower and cannabis oil have been given the thumbs up from the Canadian federal government.

Every other form -- we're talking vapes, concentrates, edibles, infused beverages -- they're supposed

to be discussed some time next year. But there's no timetable on that.

It's simple promises and industry expectations at this point.

Todd Campbell: That's a great point, Sean!

I think that not many people who are following the marijuana market recognize that you're

talking about not having those things available until next year.

We're really just talking about the dried flower at this point.

Keith Speights: And I've seen some studies Sean, and you've probably seen the same ones,

that showed it's the edibles and vapes and concentrates that are the most profitable segments of the industry.

Williams: Yeah, absolutely. I have seen those studies.

I'm looking forward to seeing what they can do with it, but there's no guarantee that

it's going to be a profitable venture right out the gate, or when it's even going to happen.

Campbell: It's a major market opportunity.

If you think about your addressable market, your addressable market of people who are

going to go out and buy dried cannabis are people who want to smoke it. Maybe you'll bake with it.

But I think that when you have it in edibles, infused beverages, and you make it easier,

a lot of consumers that maybe otherwise wouldn't have tried it will say,

"Maybe I'll give this a shot, see what it's like."

There's a lot of complexity, obviously, associated with that. But I agree. I think that's an exciting potential.

Speights: I'll take a different angle on this. The healthcare guy in me will come out here.

I'm excited about the medical potential for marijuana.

We just had the first plant-based marijuana drug, Epidiolex, get approved.

I love some of these names. They really roll off the tongue.

But I think there's more potential than maybe people realize for different cannabinoids.

Obviously, the focus now is on CBD.

But there are dozens and dozens of other cannabinoids that have not been researched.

Campbell: Over 100! Speights: Yeah, it's over 100. It's a lot. Who knows?

In a way, marijuana has been under a stigma for so long, but here could be some real medical potential here.

We see it with the rare forms of epilepsy now, but who knows?

Schizophrenia, there are quite a few indications that this plant could yield some ingredients

that really help patients down the road. That's what excites me.

Jones: Absolutely. I'm with you there, Keith. I think the potential on the medical side is huge.

When you talk about movement disorders, neurological disorders, in terms of growth opportunities

for CBD, medical marijuana, to really dive into that sector even more, and to really

see how that plays out, not just for Epidiolex -- for listeners who have been following that

particular story, to see that happen, that was a monumental moment.

That was in May or June of this year. Speights: June.

Jones: So, for Epidiolex to get the first FDA approval for CBD.

Williams: And even more than just the approval, the scheduling.

Jones: Yes, the scheduling, too. Speights: Schedule five.

Williams: They got as good as you can get. That really helps

GW Pharmaceuticals, who is marketing Epidiolex, that's really going to help them get that drug out.

Campbell: There's a human element, too. The initial indications are incredibly treatment-resistant.

These people are suffering, I want to say up to 70 drop seizures a month.

And in trials, it reduced those drop seizures by about 40%, depending on the study you're looking at, 40-50%.

It's really moving the needle.

Laurie Hernandez | Her Personal Story behind She's Got This - Duration: 2:44.

[MUSIC]

Hey, I'm Laurie Hernandez and I am the author of She's Got This.

The storyline of She's Got This is about a little girl who starts gymnastics because

she saw an older girl do it.

She wants to pursue that dream of being a beautiful, powerful gymnast, but

she gets some bumps and bruises along the way and she gets a bit discouraged.

However, her family is there to encourage her and be with her and

pick her up every step of the way.

The idea for the story, She's Got This, is very much so

based on my gymnastics journey.

There was one year in 2014 where I was injured basically the whole year.

And I got really discouraged, and I wasn't sure if I wanted to do the sport anymore.

And I remember my parents had sat me down.

They were like, Laurie, it's just a rough patch, you're gonna be just fine.

Stick with it, because we know that you still love the sport.

So I stuck with it, and I was able to pursue my dream of being an Olympian.

So the character Zoe in She's Got This is me.

Zoe is my middle name, she's got my curls and the little chubby cheeks, too.

She absolutely loves gymnastics but she got really discouraged when she fell and

she bruised her knee little bit, but her family kinda sat around her and told her,

you know what, kiddo, you're gonna be okay,.

And she found strength through her family, which is exactly what I did.

As a little kid, I think I was always a perfectionist.

And so when I would fall or I would make mistakes, I was pretty hard on myself, and

I learned at a really young age that mistakes do happen and

it's okay as long as you learn from them and you keep moving forward.

And I think that's what She's Got This really shows.

Growing up, I can remember reading a lot of picture books,

especially about gymnastics, just because I was so passionate about the sport.

But for as many gymnastics books as there were for my age, there weren't that many

that had girls with curly hair, or had the dynamic that I had with my family.

And so now, seeing that there's a book with a little girl who looks just

like me in a big family like mine, I hope that there's a little girl or

little boy out there who could get really inspired from that and try something new.

Seeing the artwork of She's Got This made me extremely excited,

because I think that they captured how little Zoe is really playful.

And even her expression when she gets those bumps and bruises along the way.

And it also really captures how my family was and how humble they were, but

yet still ready to teach me a new lesson.

And I was ready for that.

I'm very excited about this book because I hope that other little girls and

boys can read the book and notice, you know what, she had a couple of bumps and

bruises along the way, but she still kept going and still kept moving forward.

And I hope they see it's okay to make mistakes as long as you're able to learn

from them.

Artificial Intelligence At NASA - Interview with Steve Chien, Head of AI, NASA-JPL - Duration: 9:21.

Here with Steve Chien, Head of AI at JPL-NASA - Steve, how's it going today?

Very good I'm very excited to be here at The AI Summit and to hear a lot of great things that are happening in AI

Yeah fantastic so you've just come off stage at your keynote a

couple of hours ago can you tell me a little bit about it and what you were trying to really

communicate to the audience?

Well that AI is really being used all

across the space exploration enterprise everything from making the spacecraft

smarter to analyzing the huge data sets on the ground and then to operating

things like the communications antennas that we need to talk to the spacecraft

A lot of the AI systems used in space right I mean I imagine they

exhibit a lot of autonomy, and there is more of a degree of you

know you can't control everything all the time. Can you speak to that in terms of what could these businesses and enterprises

learn in terms of implementing something that's actually autonomous?

Well there's there's one aspect which is a direct relationship there's a lot of business

to be done in autonomous systems so if people want to let's say drill for oil

underneath the ocean or or monitor their pipeline operations it requires the same

kind of autonomous operations and autonomous robotics that that we're

talking about - that we routinely develop at NASA. But there's also transfer at a

more abstract level so NASA has immense amounts of data that we have to sift

through for scientific purposes and understand that data and that's exactly

the same thing that many companies are doing they're dealing with the fact that

there's this explosion of data and trying to figure out how to make it a

routine process to understand that data and exploit that data to their

commercial advantage - it's just that we're trying to do it for more

scientific purposes. So there's a lot of crossover just in areas like that

Sure, so your keynote was was entitled AI and the search for life beyond Earth you

talk to me a little bit about all that data you guys are sifting through and

you know why is it so important to space exploration?

Well the entire purpose of space exploration from our perspective is to advance

science and so the data is really the prize for sending a spacecraft so we

send the spacecraft to Mars not for the sole purpose of sending the spacecraft

to Mars but to learn more about what Mars is like and there are direct

applications of this to all kinds of business enterprises you know companies

want to understand more about the customers. Healthcare companies want to

understand more about their patients. Different commercial vendors you know in

in retail want to know more about their customers and want to anticipate the

customers' wishes so that they can you know support their business more

accurately and more quickly and so these are all the same kinds of things

that that we've done that we do work on at JPL.

Speaking to that, you know, you have to put a lot of reliability

into the systems you're using Could you talk to me a little bit about that -

what kind of advice would you give for building in reliability into an AI system?

Well that is one of the true challenges that we're facing in AI

right now as we have these software systems that are increasingly complex

how do we scale up our methods of verifying them and making sure that

they'll behave properly and you know there's been a lot of news in the press

about autonomous driving cars we don't have the ability to just test out a

rover on Mars for you know let's say eight or ten years or millions of hours

so we're a firm believer in traditional testing methods but also in terms of

formal methods trying to be able to prove certain properties about our

systems and at some level that's the only long-term alternative and so I

think that is the future that's the future of all kinds of systems not just

autonomous systems but any kind of system you have to be able to understand

what it does at a general level and show that it will behave a certain way.

Do you think you know technologies like AI remove the need for humans to

become interplanetary?

I'm not quite sure I understood your question.

Do we

need to really does this remove the need to send manned spacecraft up into... if

you can analyze data from a distance using machine vision.

So that's a very

good question. So I believe that AI in space exploration is more complementary

to human exploration so first of all at least for the foreseeable future we

don't have an AI that we'd be as good as having the scientists involved or having

astronauts go and explore themselves and so for that reason we

want to send humans to these remote locations but we want to send robots

first because it's very expensive to send humans so we want to learn

everything we can with robots and then later on send humans but even when the

humans are there they'll need robots because we don't want the humans

spending their time on the mundane... keeping the plumbing

running and everything... we want the humans to be focusing on the truly

intellectual tasks and we want to relieve them from getting stuck in the

mud of the day-to-day operations of the space station or the Mars habitat or

whatever it is so I think that human exploration and robotic exploration they

go together - the robotic exploration first and then later on the robots to

help the humans and this synergy is very important there are some missions that

we don't know when we'll be able to send a human on so if we send the spacecraft

to another star system sending a human on a one-way hundred year

mission is you know well beyond our current technology but to send a robot

we could think about that now we're not ready to send one but perhaps someday

Sure, sure. You've talked about bringing the

lessons of NASA's use of AI here to the other enterprises but what

what is it about the companies here today that you're looking to really take

home?

Well to me there are a lot of technical obstacles that are keeping us

from moving forward but there's a lot of what I would call business or people or

process challenges to moving things forward so I heard a lot of interesting

talks on AI in healthcare and they obviously have tremendous challenges

because you know people's lives are at stake how do you introduce AI how do you

decide how things are done so this gets back to you you know a question you

raised earlier about how do we make sure that the rover does the right thing? Well

it's pretty important when it's a two billion dollar rover it's pretty

important when it's someone's human life at stake and so how you interject how

you infuse the AI into your overall process those are sort of very similar

questions and so there are things about understanding the whole process

understanding AI in the context of the overall system and also understanding

the culture - the culture of the doctors versus the culture of spacecraft

operations - these are all things that are lessons across these different

disciplines.

What are the challenges of building

explainability and accountability, especially in like you know

mission-critical kind of life-threatening situations you know?

How do you see a way of overcoming those?

So this topic of

explainability is one of the true challenges to AI right now and most

people talk about it in the context of machine learning but my work is more on

the side of model driven AI but explainability is equally important there we

actually have some very good technologies for explaining tactically

what the AI systems do so you know when the car you know drives right when we

expect it to go in the center you know go straight it's very easy to say well

this particular thing triggered and so it thought that there was an obstacle

there but that's not the deeper answer that we want and what's the challenge to

AI is to be able to explain like a human expert would explain so the human expert

doesn't say well this line of code triggered and then this line of code

triggered he said you know there's this general class of white objects that we

didn't really consider might be traveling at this trajectory and so we

need to reconsider our design in light of that and that is the challenge the

current challenge with AI - to explain at what we would call the strategic level

and this comes up a lot in in space exploration in

terms of science planning. When we deploy our planning system and it says

you can't take that observation then the scientists always comes to us and says

why is my observation not there? And we can say oh it's because you know the Sun

angle is wrong the illumination is wrong for your observation but that's not the

real answer we want. The real answer is well it's because of these other

observations and if we change the trajectory this way then we can get your

observation or we can take it at this other time and so that's the next level

of explanation that we need to get to.

Definitely, well, Steve thanks for talking to me

today - good to have you here.

3 Top Marijuana Stock Picks - Duration: 10:19.

Shannon Jones: The moment you all have been waiting for, I get the chance to pick the

brains of our marijuana gurus and experts. I want to hear about your top picks.

Sean, how about you kick us off? Sean Williams: Alright, why not?

I'm weird. I like small-cap stocks. That's me! That's always been me!

Todd Campbell: [laughs] Lean right into it.

Williams: I'm weird! I have two companies, we'll call them a 1A and a 1B.

I can't pick between which one I like more. There are two. The first is OrganiGram Holdings.

It's a pretty small company, under $1 billion market cap.

The interesting thing about OrganiGram is, people forget about it. It's Atlantic-based.

There are no Atlantic-based growers that are big. They're the small-time players.

But here's OrganiGram, kicking out an expected hundred 113,000 kilograms a year.

That's going to put it in the top 10, I believe. And everyone's forgetting about it.

All the growers are in British Columbia, they're in Ontario, they're in Quebec.

There are no Atlantic growers. That gives it a geographic advantage over everyone else.

What I really like about OrganiGram, other than the fact that CEO Greg Engel was nice

enough to give me an interview -- Keith Speights: Good interview!

Williams: Good interview! Thank you, Greg Engel, if you're listening!

It's the fact that they're really maximizing their grow space.

They have a 480,000 square foot grow space up in Moncton, New Brunswick, I believe, across two facilities.

Most growers have a million, maybe more than a million, square feet of growing space,

and they're kicking out about 100,000 kilograms a year.

OrganiGram is kicking out 113,000 kilograms on 480,000 square feet because they have a three-tier grow system.

They're focused on those high-margin cannabis oils. They really have a good patient focus.

They really want to move into the alternatives once they come out.

It sounds like they're really excited about that. At least, that's the impression I got from Greg Engel.

That's OrganiGram. I'm really excited about it.

A little sketchy on the valuation because that's what all marijuana stocks are right now.

But that's probably the 1A. If there's a 1B, it's CannTrust, based in Ontario.

The interesting thing about CannTrust, they're growing through hydroponics.

Rather than growing plants in soil, they're growing them in a nutrient-rich water solvent.

Along with their containerized bench system, which is supposed to help with harvesting,

they should have less lumpy harvesting.

Normally, you'd plant the crop, X amount of time later, you harvest the crop.

This will be a lot faster, a lot more continuous, and hopefully should help with long-term supply deals.

It doesn't hurt that they've been profitable, too.

Campbell: Very interesting. One of the things I was thinking matter when we were asked to pick out names,

you could say, "Tilray! Aurora!" Don't.

So, I think it's kind of cool to hear about something that's under the radar like that.

I think it's something that's valuable to our listeners to recognize, there are other companies out there.

Of course, those companies also present some pretty extreme risks, too, that everybody

should be thinking about.

When I was trying to settle in on what I would pick, I decided that I wanted to try and see

if I could focus on finding a company that maybe was getting a little bit forgotten but wasn't quite a small.

I settled on Aphria. I think Aphria is going to be the third biggest player in Canada.

They're on pace for about 255,000 kilograms of production early next year.

What's really interesting to me about them is that 250,000 kilograms of their production

is being done in greenhouses.

The reason that that's important is that greenhouse production is cheaper than indoor production by a lot.

That gives them a competitive advantage where maybe, maybe, if you're going out and it becomes

an issue of, most marijuana demand ends up being for ingredient rather than dried flower,

then the low-cost provider could have a valuable edge over some of these other companies.

I think that's something that really attracted me to it.

I also like that they're not, I'm not going to say promotional, but they haven't been

as aggressive, they haven't been as out in front of everybody, as these other companies.

It makes me feel like maybe they're just putting their head down getting their work done and

establishing themselves in this business. So, I kind of like that.

One of the reasons that I like that is because its valuation, I don't think, is nearly as

stretched as some of these other ones.

I looked earlier today, I think we're about $3 billion market cap.

For comparison, Canopy is still over $10 billion, and Aurora is much larger. Now, they're bigger companies.

Canopy is going to crank out, what, 500,000 kilograms, Sean?

Williams: Something around there. Campbell: And Aurora is aiming for 550,000.

Williams: 570,000, but that doesn't even count ICC Labs.

Campbell: Yeah. So, it's not going to be as big as they are, but it may have an edge in pricing and profitability.

If you look at, over the last 12 months, their ability to translate more money down after

all their expenses, it's pretty impressive.

It's really hard right now when we try and talk valuation with marijuana stocks,

because they don't make money, and there are so many one-off expenses that are screwing up the

net income for these companies. You've got stock-based compensation, all these other things.

So, I'm looking at gross margin right now when I look at these companies.

And by far, of all the biggies, Aphria has the highest gross margin.

If you're comparing Aphria to Canopy, it's by a lot.

So, I think that would be the name that, if I was a new investor coming in and considering

these, maybe I would look at Aphria as one of the first ones I would consider.

Speights: I would actually agree with both of you guys. I like both of the picks that you've mentioned.

I'm going to throw in a real twist: Liberty Health Sciences. It's even smaller than OrganiGram.

What I like about Liberty, they're actually based in Canada, but their operations are

nearly exclusively in Florida.

Now, you might not realize, Florida is projected to be the third-biggest marijuana market in the U.S.

By 2022, the projections I've seen, I've seen on the low end, $1.7 billion, upwards of $1.8 billion.

And it's only medical marijuana legalized in that state.

They will rank only behind, of course, California No. 1, Colorado No. 2.

Florida is projected to be the third biggest marijuana state in the U.S. So, that's a big market.

Here's the cool thing. The state has very limited licenses for production. They've only awarded 14 licenses.

Liberty has one of those.

The licensing they give gives the company the ability not only to grow, but to have up to 30 retail dispensaries.

Liberty Health Sciences is positioned in the Florida market.

They're rapidly cranking out more retail locations.

They also do home delivery throughout the state, medical marijuana.

I talked to their CEO, George Scorsis, a couple of weeks ago.

He said their estimate right now is, they have about a 15% market share in Florida.

But by early next year, they're going to be the biggest producer, because like a lot of

the Canadian companies, they're really ramping up their capacity.

He thinks there's going to be a lot of product shortages very soon in the state.

As they ramp up that production capacity, he really projects they're going to have a 25% market share.

So, I thought, "Well, that's the CEO. He's going to really play this up."

Campbell: He's probably not going to say that it's ...

Speights: Yeah. But if you do the math -- think about this. Let's say $1.8 billion.

That seems to be a consensus-type projection for Florida. $1.8 billion.

Even if they don't increase their market share, even if they only have 15% -- I won't do the

math in my head here -- the market cap is only around $360 million right now.

This company has some real room to run. Let's say 20%. That's $360 million a year at 20% of the market.

Liberty Health Sciences is a company that really has some real opportunity.

We talk about some of these absolutely outrageous valuations -- Tilray.

Williams: No name-dropping.

Speights: I mean, honestly, I look at a Liberty Health Sciences flying under the radar --

kind of like OrganiGram, flying under the radar -- but it's a legitimate business and has

some really great business prospects. So, I like the stock right now.

Campbell: It's so hard, right, Shannon, with some of these U.S. marijuana plays.

We hear all of these people who say, "You have to be worried about marijuana in the U.S.,"

because we don't necessarily have an administration in Washington right now that's a big fan.

The change because of Epidiolex, that did not do anything to marijuana. It's still a schedule one drug.

There's all sorts of banking restrictions. There's these things, and maybe, Keith, that's why.

Speights: I'm sure. That's exactly why.

The companies that operate primarily in the U.S., they're still under that dark cloud

of marijuana being illegal at the federal level.

We could place bets on whether or not the bill that's being pushed through right now

might pass, that at least the federal laws could change where the government will not

get in the way of states. But I don't think we're going to see a crackdown. That's my opinion.
