An AI system was developed using camera footage of people in a space, combined with Wi-Fi router sonar data, to predict human locations. The camera was then removed, leaving the AI with only radio signal data. The AI was able to reconstruct real-time 3D pose estimations using only the language of radio signals. This effectively turns every Wi-Fi router into a camera that works in the dark and is specifically designed for tracking living beings.

At CES, we showcased a demonstration with BMW where we integrated the car's entire database into the dashboard. By simply asking the car about a specific light on the panel, it provides detailed information about the issue, potential outcomes, and precise location of the problem. It even suggests how to drive with the issue. Additionally, I can help you schedule an appointment as I have already checked for availability. This allows for a seamless and contextual conversation with your car.

Ford Motor Company has filed a patent to install listening devices in new vehicles to monitor conversations. One module will focus on the driver, another on the passenger, to determine when to interrupt with targeted ads, audibly or visually. The technology will track travel habits (local, long haul, gym, grocery store) and driving modes (sports, econo) to tailor ad frequency. High speeds may mean fewer ads, while traffic jams could trigger more. The system will predict destinations based on travel history and present ads in advance, influenced by driving conditions like sunny or rainy weather. The goal is to maximize revenue, with potential third-party involvement. The patent doesn't discuss data protection or privacy. Travel history will be recorded, raising subpoena concerns. The speaker suggests that with Pluto entering Aquarius, this technology is inevitable, unless one buys an older car.

In a Toyota '20 25, the screen navigation requires a subscription; "you can't use navigation unless you pay a subscription fee for it." You can't hook your phone up to use free navigation. The speaker notes subscription fees: "it's $15 a month" and "it's also $15 a month to stream music to the actual screen in your car." Together it's "$25 a month." They mention a forum claim: "it's $8 a month to be able to see your oil level and your tire pressure." They also say "The car is, like, $40" to use the car and the key fob. "Remote start" requires a subscription: "you have to literally pay a subscription fee to get remote start." The vehicle is capable of all these things, and "What the fuck reality is to use them."

Speaker 0 describes how, in a car they examined, navigation requires a paid subscription, noting it as "insane" that you can’t hook your phone up for free navigation. The subscription fees cited are $15 a month for navigation and $15 a month to stream music to the car’s screen, totaling $25 a month for those services. They also mention an $8 a month fee to view oil level and tire pressure, and that the vehicle is priced around $40 (unclear context, but presented as part of the overall cost discussion). Remote start is another feature that requires a subscription. The overall implication is that the vehicle, though capable of many features, pushes paid subscriptions for essential functionalities. Speaker 1 adds that the car had cameras not just for safety but for monitoring the driver, stating the car watches you drive to ensure compliance. If the driver touches their phone, the car would decelerate, and the system can track surrounding cars and objects, causing the car to automatically decelerate in response. The speaker notes that they connected a Bluetooth device, but it kept disconnecting every time they got in the car, and the assistant stated this happens because of the subscription model. They remark on the Toyota product they tested, noting the vehicle is “about over 70 k” for a brand-new model, implying a misalignment between the vehicle’s cost and the subscription-heavy features. They question trading in their current car, which has tangible, pressable buttons and sensory feedback, for a car that feels like it’s constantly watched and supervised. The speakers converge on concerns that many cars are claimed to be non-autonomous while being described as autonomous in practice, suggesting a paradox in the industry. The overall impression is that paid subscriptions govern core capabilities (navigation, music streaming, remote start) and ongoing monitoring features (driver surveillance and feature control), affecting the value proposition of high-cost vehicles.

The speaker expresses growing concern about how modern cars are becoming surveillance devices through automated driver assistance systems (ADAS) and connected technology. He describes a recent rental car as full of surveillance features, noting that ADAS regulations are EU-based but likely to be adopted worldwide. These systems can beep for minor speed overages and require constant attention to the windscreen; they can also shout if you remove your hands from the wheel. He cites that, on average, there are more than ten cameras in a car, most of which face inward to monitor the driver, with at least one camera focusing on the eyes to assess whether the driver is looking at the screen or is tired, suggesting that the goal is to ensure the driver cannot effectively control the car. He introduces the concept of geofencing, describing it as a feature that could restrict a vehicle’s operation when it crosses the edge of a defined boundary, such as the boundary of a “fifteen minute city.” He explains that with always-on, connected cars, crossing the boundary could trigger the car to slow down or enter a limp mode, allowing only first and second gear and effectively preventing out-of-bound travel. He urges listeners to look up geofencing as a standalone term and shares a personal anecdote: a dealer updated a car, and the owner had to accept new terms and conditions that allowed the manufacturer and authorities to activate geofencing software in the vehicle. The speaker connects these technologies to broader identification and tracking systems, suggesting that the car already reveals its location and that the owners' identity could be inferred by associating the car with the driver through facial recognition captured by in-car cameras. He speculates that masking could prevent the car from starting, and he imagines an intentionally malicious designer could exploit such features. He asks whether this is the world people want and expresses a personal desire to detach from the Internet and digital devices, even at the cost of inconvenience, as a way to avoid concentrated control. He emphasizes that the crucial point is a world that cannot be taken over by a small number of people.
