Google's Auto Awesome will take the best areas of slightly different photographs and combine them into one new, never-quite-was best version. A new article suggests that this kind of artful interpretation of history may prove problematic when AI determines what parts of photos are important. Anthony argues that no photograph is a true depiction, while Jeff wonders if we will ever remember something accurately again. Like the show? Want early episodes and extra content?

Saturday morning cartoons are no more! And Jeff has decided that this means something really bad for today's youth - but Anthony is certain that it's a good thing, and that Jeff is just a cranky old man yelling at the winds of change. Does on-demand mean no more shared cultural experience? And where does this leave Capt Crunch in his battle against the soggies? Like the show? Want early episodes and extra content?

Anthony has been reading about Chaser, the wonder dog who has learned over 1,000 different words, which makes him wonder how smart Jeff believes canines to be. Is obedience less intelligent than independence? Is there a bias in measuring intelligence in non-human creatures? Like the show? Want early episodes and extra content?

Shipyard workers in South Korea have been using Exo Suits to assist them in loading and unloading scrap metal, and Jeff and Anthony desperately want to try it out. But why stop there? Why not replace human limbs with robot ones? How far would they go in selling off their humanity to be able to punch down a wall? The answer may surprise you.

A new article suggests that the Oculus VR headset may be the first step to allowing people to truly experience what it is like to live a different kind of life. This could allow designers to create "empathy engines" whereby users may come to feel emotion for their fellow man in a virtual space. Anthony and Jeff think this is a great idea, especially if causes douchey diners to tip their wait staff.

Researchers in Paris recently proved that the brain can continue to classify words into categories even after it has gone to sleep, causing Jeff and Anthony to wonder what scientists do to make their test subjects fall asleep during an experiment, and how this kind of non-stop brain activity might be harnessed by corporate America.
