oneself as a path to happiness. This insight

00:07:50.139 --> 00:07:52.519
could be especially beneficial for the younger

00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:55.879

U .S. consumer sentiment plunged in November,

00:08:38.090 --> 00:08:40.889

you by. And now back to the show. Let's talk

00:09:55.860 --> 00:10:00.720
tech. Stuck in traffic, Google plans to enhance

00:10:00.720 --> 00:10:05.379
Google Maps with its AI assistant, Gemini. This

00:10:05.379 --> 00:10:08.019
feature allows drivers to ask complex questions.

00:10:08.159 --> 00:10:12.059
and perform tasks using voice commands. With

00:10:12.059 --> 00:10:15.120
more than 2 billion monthly users, Google Maps

00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:18.080
is integrating new artificial intelligence features

00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.919
to compete with OpenAI and Meta. Users can engage

00:10:22.919 --> 00:10:26.480
with Gemini by saying, Hey Google, or tapping

00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:30.360
the icon. The Assistant can also summarize sports

00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:33.889
results and news during commutes. Amanda Moore,

00:10:34.129 --> 00:10:36.889
product director, emphasized that this technology

00:10:36.889 --> 00:10:40.450
is becoming vastly more visual and interactive.

00:10:41.669 --> 00:10:44.409
However, users must allow access to their services

00:10:44.409 --> 00:10:51.269
for Gemini to function effectively. The entertainment

00:10:51.269 --> 00:10:55.009
news. Vince Gilligan, known for creating the

00:10:55.009 --> 00:10:58.370
iconic series Breaking Bad, is shifting gears

00:10:58.370 --> 00:11:03.039
with his new Apple TV show, Pluribus. This sci

00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:06.639
-fi epic features an unlikely hero, Carol Sterka,

00:11:06.980 --> 00:11:10.120
played by Rhea Seaborn, marking Gilligan's first

00:11:10.120 --> 00:11:13.759
female protagonist. Set to premiere on November

00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:17.080
7th, the show explores themes of wish fulfillment

00:11:17.080 --> 00:11:20.179
and human connection, addressing the loneliness

00:11:20.179 --> 00:11:24.000
felt in today's society. Gilligan aims to move

00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:26.899
away from the anti -hero narrative that has saturated

00:11:26.899 --> 00:11:30.059
pop culture, believing it's time for heroes to

00:11:30.059 --> 00:11:33.440
take center stage once more. As he embarks on

00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.059
this new journey, Gilligan remains committed

00:11:36.059 --> 00:11:39.519
to storytelling that resonates with modern audiences.

00:11:41.159 --> 00:11:43.980
Well, all righty folks, it's time for the quote

00:11:43.980 --> 00:11:47.940
of the day. And today, our quote comes from the

00:11:47.940 --> 00:11:51.779
American educator and author, John Dewey. And

00:11:51.779 --> 00:11:55.940
he said, education is not preparation for life.

00:11:56.340 --> 00:12:01.059
Education is life itself. And that's a wrap for

00:12:01.059 --> 00:12:04.039
this morning. You can check out our Instagram,
