The Hillcrest 00:04:15.629 --> 00:04:18.470 Business Association has urged council member 00:04:18.470 --> 00:04:21.730 Steph Whitburn to reconsider, citing that construction 00:04:21.730 --> 00:04:25.149 on the new Pride Promenade relied on funds from 00:04:25.149 --> 00:04:28.790 parking meter revenue. Executive Director Benjamin 00:04:28.790 --> 00:04:32.230 Nichols warns that future projects could be jeopardized 00:04:32.230 --> 00:04:35.170 if the city's proposal reduces parking district 00:04:35.170 --> 00:04:41.189 revenue from 45 % to 15%. Balboa Park may also 00:04:41.189 --> 00:04:44.050 see parking changes, which could deter visitors. 00:04:44.850 --> 00:04:48.449 The city aims to address a budget shortfall exceeding 00:04:48.449 --> 00:04:57.649 $250 million through these adjustments.

McIlroy is in excellent form, yet 00:05:21.800 --> 00:05:25.759 struggles to close out majors. Colin Morikoa 00:05:25.759 --> 00:05:28.680 ranks high statistically, but has more runner 00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:32.519 -up finishes than wins.

And now, back to the show. Let's talk 00:09:37.450 --> 00:09:42.110 tech. North Korea has amassed more than $6 billion 00:09:42.110 --> 00:09:45.950 through sophisticated cyber operations, funding 00:09:45.950 --> 00:09:50.830 its nuclear program. On July 18th, hackers targeted 00:09:50.830 --> 00:09:54.669 WazirX, India's largest cryptocurrency exchange, 00:09:55.070 --> 00:09:59.309 and stole over $200 million in just one hour. 00:10:00.309 --> 00:10:03.269 Investigators reveal that these hackers are incredibly 00:10:03.269 --> 00:10:06.200 skilled. using social engineering and deception 00:10:06.200 --> 00:10:10.580 to gain access to sensitive systems. With state 00:10:10.580 --> 00:10:12.919 -sponsored resources, they can wait patiently 00:10:12.919 --> 00:10:16.240 to exploit vulnerabilities, making them the world's 00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:20.000 most dangerous crypto thieves. Their criminal 00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:23.220 activities serve as a means to support a sanctioned 00:10:23.220 --> 00:10:26.159 strapped economy and further the regime's ambitions. 00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:34.919 James Cameron recently joined the Boz to the 00:10:34.919 --> 00:10:37.679 Future podcast, where he discussed the future 00:10:37.679 --> 00:10:40.860 of blockbuster filmmaking, emphasizing the need 00:10:40.860 --> 00:10:44.799 to cut the cost of visual effects in half. He 00:10:44.799 --> 00:10:47.340 is exploring how artificial intelligence can 00:10:47.340 --> 00:10:50.480 help reduce expenses without displacing staff. 00:10:51.919 --> 00:10:54.460 Cameron, who joined the board of directors for 00:10:54.460 --> 00:10:58.139 Stability AI, aims to integrate AI into visual 00:10:58.139 --> 00:11:02.580 effects workflows to enhance efficiency. He expressed 00:11:02.580 --> 00:11:06.179 skepticism about AI's ability to write compelling 00:11:06.179 --> 00:11:09.600 stories, asserting that true storytelling requires 00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:13.960 human experience. Cameron is currently in post 00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:17.440 -production on the upcoming Avatar sequel, Fire 00:11:17.440 --> 00:11:20.879 and Ash, set to be released on December 19th. 00:11:21.799 --> 00:11:25.220 Well, alrighty folks, it's time for the quote 00:11:25.220 --> 00:11:29.000 of the day. And today, our quote comes from the 00:11:29.000 --> 00:11:33.120 American author and speaker, Alan Klein. And 00:11:33.120 --> 00:11:37.340 he said, Your attitude is like a box of crayons 00:11:37.340 --> 00:11:41.240 that color your world. Constantly color your 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:44.240 picture gray, and your picture will always be 00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:48.220 bleak. Try adding some bright colors to the picture 00:11:48.220 --> 00:11:51.279 by including humor, and your picture begins to 00:11:51.279 --> 00:11:55.100 lighten up. And that's a wrap for this morning. 00:11:56.190 --> 00:11:58.690 You can check out our Instagram, YouTube and 00:11:58.690 --> 00:12:02.409 TikTok for some captivating aerial videos with 00:12:02.409 --> 00:12:06.389 local news and the surf reports.
