Great show on all things tech
Nathan does an amazing job of covering the latest across the tech world, and in a way that is easy to understand, engaging, and fun. He adds in his own take based on decades of experience in the tech world and you get opposing views from his co-host. A great way to catch up on developments and learn about multiple sides of the latest in tech.

This guy…has got ideas
As a fellow YouTuber, it is always wonderful to stumble upon other YouTubers who are trying to give alternate, or objective viewpoints other than what is commonly seen (as on TV). Mr. Mumm seems highly intelligent, and it is always interesting to see what he will say next.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

319: TechTime Radio: AI Is Bending Human Memory, Robots Are Harassing Teens, Supermarkets Are Being Hacked, Scams Are Evolving, And Gadgets Are Spying. TechTime Breaks Down The Chaos So You Stay Sharp, Safe, And One Step Ahead | Air Date: 10/20 – 10/26/26

Q: Who bears the responsibility when a machine is used to commit a crime?

They discuss the difficulty of assigning responsibility when a robot is remotely operated, controlled by a phone, or pre-programmed. They argue that responsibility should remain with the people who deploy, program, or control the machine.

Q: If AI can alter memories and we rely on our memories to judge accuracy, how do humans remain the human in the loop?

The hosts say memory is already malleable and that relying on AI can reduce critical thinking and other cognitive skills. They suggest that human oversight may not be enough if AI can influence the memories people use to check its work.

Q: What did Nick Espinosa say about the Windows 11 AI rollout and disable options?

Q: Can you tell us a little bit more about Flock OS Investigate and how it ties into surveillance concerns?

Nick describes OS Investigate as an AI system that ties camera data to records and logs, enabling pattern-based searches that can generate potential suspects, raising concerns about mass surveillance and the erosion of due process.

Q: Nick, tell us a little bit about yourself to all of our new listeners.

Nick Espinosa explains his background as founder of Windy City Networks, creator of Security Fanatics, and his role as chief security fanatic, emphasizing his expertise in cybersecurity and his current focus on AI and security issues.
