 So this video from CES 2018 is brought to you by Group Renault. Check out our video there, Symbiose Demo Car, at the link in the video description. Hey, Jibo, are you ready? I'm ready for anything. Well, I'm ready for anything that I've been programmed to be ready for. So as you can probably imagine, Team Jibo was, uh, well, let's just say they recognized our crew when we were walking by on the show floor here at CES. And they actually had some pretty specific responses to some of the criticisms we had of their Jibo home robot. First of all, hey Jibo, who's the President of the United States? Donald Trump is the President of the United States. So there you go, Jibo knows what's up now, and they've made a lot of improvements since then, rolling out OTA updates about every two weeks. Now there's actually been one small hardware tweak as well. The screen has been swapped out for a higher resolution one with rounded corners. Unfortunately, it's not OLED, the supply is just not there yet. But, hey, it's a small improvement and we'll take it. Now let's talk about the software updates, because there have been a ton of tweaks to camera processing for better pictures, what they're calling fresh and lively features to make Jibo a little more topical, like a snow globe during the holidays. Jibo can now play music through iHeartRadio, so at this time there's not a ton you can do in terms of voice controls, and he still doesn't support services like Spotify, but they are expecting to add more services and the ability to do things like, hey Jibo, play the next song, in the near future. The team has added a new commander mode that actually allows you to see through Jibo's eyes, which lights up a purple LED, revealing that Jibo has full RGB lighting in his LED strip, and in fact, there is probably other hardware lying dormant under the hood, and the Jibo team has in fact confirmed that for us. Another feature of commander mode is the ability to type a message and have Jibo say it. Line us, Tech6 is the best. So you can be looking around, you can go, hey, this room's pretty messy, hey, there's my son, yo kid, clean your room, and Jibo will say it, well, in a nicer way. Jibo now uses information from Google in addition to the previous sources, and can also do live sports scores, even adding a little bit of color commentary to the mix, like the Celtics are crushing the Knicks. Integration with Philips Hue, Nest, and all recipes is coming, as is a find my phone function, something that I'm sure that we can all relate to. A big priority for the development team is personalized reports, so Jibo will see you and say something like, hey Linus, you gotta get going, oh, by the way, it's raining, so you might want to grab an umbrella on your way out the door. Or if I were to give Jibo an instruction like, when you see my wife, can you ask her to pick up some groceries next time she's at the grocery store? Jibo can pass along that instruction using his facial recognition. Now to be clear, I still have a lot of doubts about Jibo, and for that matter, smart assistants in general, for as long as they are stationary. But it's clear that the Jibo team is A, taking feedback seriously, and B, continuing their software development work, so I do look forward to seeing how it continues to change in the future. And we will be able to do that because the winning bid for our signed Jibo was an epic troll, so we still have it. Thanks for checking out this video from CES 2018. This video was brought to you by Grup Renaud. You guys gotta check out their Symbios demo car. We've got a video linked in the description, but they did a full demo allowing me to take it out on real French roads with real drivers around at a level 4 autonomous operating level. So that means that I was sitting in that thing going, okay, I'm leaned way back. There's a big screen here. I cannot even see over the dashboard, and this car is straight up driving itself, telegraphing its moves around other vehicles as we change lanes, and even being able to operate autonomously with the driver wearing a VR headset. I was the driver. I was wearing a VR headset, and they had the sensors of the car actually dialed into the VR headset and the programming for it so that you could be driving in this like fantastical environment. Like I had like a flock of birds go by, and I kind of went like this, and it was an actual car. Totally crazy. Go check it out to see what Grup Renaud is doing in the space of autonomous car innovation. So thanks for watching guys. If you disliked this video, you can hit that button, but if you liked it, hit like, get subscribed, and maybe consider checking out where to buy the stuff we featured because this is one of the few things we've covered at the show that you can actually buy today. But whether or not you should is still up to you. Hey G-Bo, how'd I do? Sorry, I checked for you, but I'm coming up empty. Ouch.
