Welcome to the 3: 59.
I’m Ben Fox Rubin.>>I’m Roger Cheng.>>CNet has actually checked 5G networks all over the world, covering 7 various networks in 11 various cities, from Los Angeles to Seoul.
If you wish to learn more about what we did, have a look at Jessica Dulcourt’s story where she composed 5G age is no longer approaching it has actually dawned.
Okay, so 5G has actually dawned, Roger.
Yes.
What do we learn?
What do we understand about 5G now?
It’s a rough start.
There are certainly some growing discomforts with 5G, It is here and sometimes, it is extremely quickly, in other cases, it’s non existing.
And it’s, typically real.
We did see a sort of large variation in regards to the large speed we were getting.
Crosses various cities and various providers and it will kinda discuss why.
But I believe the bottom line eventually was that truly despite the provider despite the city, the protection was typically so type of unsteady, ideal?
I would state possibly the exception Where some parts of Australia and some parts of Korea.
One of the apparent advantages, among the apparent positives here that I discovered from this test is that even the slower speeds,
Yeah.
Which are in between 400 and 500 megabits per second.
Yeah.
Still I believe Jessica discussed this in the story.
It’s still 2 to 4 times faster than your present 4G network.
You understand, I indicate, that was, I believe that was.
So, which is a 2 for times, that was generally based upon the test of the early, the earliest Verizon 5G.
Which is really the slower than what they really gone.
I see.
400 medium, taking a look at truly more like 10 times faster than LTE linking, right?
You’re getting Optimistically you’re getting 40, 50 Megs per 2nd megabits per second on an LTE network.
Oftentimes you may be getting a slower connection of 10, 15 a minute.
So when you’re taking a look at 400 as a minimum that’s quite outstanding and after that take it to the severe wish to AT&T is Warner Brothers Studio.
AT&T Network is not readily available for customers however they did have sort of this blocked network for its staff members at Warner Brothers.
It was getting 1.8 gigs.
Which is insane.
That’s what we’re stating.
Okay, so 400 is currently truly outstanding.
We’re seeing numerous multiples greater than that.
And 1.8 gigs, bear in mind for a context, Google Fiber is one gig per second of speed.
Right, which’s a wired connection.
That is your fastest landline connection possible today.
They’re smoking cigarettes it today.>> Okay let’s speak about the negatives then due to the fact that I’m sensation this buzz train yeah starting.
So what’s bad about this?>>So as we saw with Verizon and at&t specific they had superfast speeds however the variety is truly brief like you go to another block and likewise the protection is gone.
You’re back to 4g.
We saw with Sprint in London, in North Korea.
The protection was a bit larger, that’s why the speeds were lower, right?
So the there’s type of a compromise in between speed and protection.
But even with those other networks worldwide There were still some blackouts like there were still a black areas or dead areas here we simply could not get covered.
So, once again, it’s everything about it is early days and shift to 5g is certainly going to take a bit.>> Yeah.
Next up, I got a possibility to interview for Amazon officers from throughout the business’s organizations to see how the e commerce giant utilizes AI automation and robotics To develop brand-new principles like it’s Amazon Go cashierless shop.
This work is taking place by the method at a time when there is substantial issue that AI and automation will clean away billions of tasks.
Roger, what do you make from that balance in between you understand hey have a look at all this glossy brand-new things versus Everybody that’s a trucker is gonna lose their task.
Yeah, I believe that that is a genuine issue.
I understand like you have actually talked with Amazon, they type of dismissed it a bit or stated that brand-new tasks that it developed however I believe there are Anytime you get a huge development and how things are made or how services are provided, there’s a great deal of worry about how that displaces tasks.
It’s gone on to generally given that the start of time, right?
But I believe the Rate of development that’s going on today is unmatched.
I believe that has a great deal of individuals flipped out.
Yeah.
And they they certainly spoke a lot about that as it associated to Amazon ghost stories due to the fact that those are shops that do not have cashiers in them and they’re getting a great deal of flack for them and from my discussions with them, they resembled, Look We do not see a scenario where we’re not gonna have any people in the shops.
I indicate, individuals still require to equip the racks, they still require to respond to consumers’ concerns, so I do not believe we’re gonna wind up in a scenario where you’re simply not gonna have individuals in those shops, yeah.
You got a great deal of this info from the Amazon reMARS Conference or their techie conference.
What’s the most intriguing or the weirdest thing you gained from your talks with those executives?
So, among the coolest things was the storage facility robotics.
Yeah.
So they’re establishing these storage facility robotics that
Basically have computer system vision.
They have eyeballs where they’re going to have the ability to leave these cages.
Right now the robotics are stuck in cages.
They’re gonna be leaving the cages and have the ability to wander around the factories.
wander around the storage facilities a lot more than they utilized to.
Are they like little R2D2s rolling around?>>They’re like orange Roombas and they’ll have the ability to do more things and have the ability to communicate more straight with individuals, so it is type of like having R2D2 or C3PO or a really early variation of that.>>Right.
Hanging out with you.
Filling out orders.
So, I believed it was kinda cool.
Cool?
Yeah, anyhow if you wanna learn more about these stories, examine them out on CNET.
I’m Ben Fox Rubin.
I’m Roger Cheng.
Thanks for listening.
