The year is 2050. Sheetal, Nilesh and Samiran are reminiscing about that amazing episode they recorded in April 2023 about life in 2050. The crystal gazing they got right, and the predictions that did not go as expected.
They did feel a sense of satisfaction that they had made such bold predictions and had lived to see them come true. No one on Earth was chasing them on the streets with brickbats. But that was also because they were sipping Expresso Martinis on the Moon 😉.
Nothing more about the future can be revealed here - time travel, changing the future, back to the future and all that hogwash.
Catch this episode of 3 Techies Banter for a peek into that world.
Predictions. As expected 😉, two main theories provide conflicting explanations. The first claims that we are more likely to perceive what we expect because it is more likely to be there. The second proposes that we are more likely to perceive what we do not expect because it provides more information. That was predictable👻👻👻.
The EU-funded ConflictedPrediction project hopes to address this paradox through cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research. It will test a new hypothesis using electroencephalography (EEG), magneto electroencephalography (MEG), and 7 Tesla (7T) MRI to explain how learning could render veridical and informative perceptions. WOW!!!. If nothing else, it will definitely take your minds off predictions.
Since these findings will only be available in 2026, we thought we should just go ahead with unbloxing trends 2023 without their wisdom. We hope you enjoy this episode.
When we think immersive, we think about Disney theme parks, Avatar, the movie, ABBA and Van Gogh experiences and more. The more evolved also talk about 29 Rooms and Secret Cinema.
But what are immersive experiences really about? At its heart, it is about making the world a better place through empathy, feeling what the other person is going through, seeing what they are seeing, and being in their shoes.
Would the Russian people support the invasion of Ukraine if they could experience what the Ukrainians are going through? How about an immersive experience as a punishment for the rapist instead of the death penalty - what would be worse?

Gloom, Doom and yet - a 1000 flowers Bloomed in 2022.
2022 was about the long tail of the pandemic, inflation, multiple humanitarian crises, worldwide climate change, and war in Europe. Wherever you turned, it was hard to escape the sense that things were falling apart.
2022 was also a year of human rights and conservation victories, significant milestones in global health and development, and a welcome boost to clean energy.
After all the countless collective hours spent focused on everything MSD (mad, sad and dying) in 2022 (bet you thought we meant Dhoni 🤣😎😉); perhaps it is worth spending half an hour talking about what humanity DID achieve. And if you don't believe us, ask the beavers.

Natwarlal (not the Amitabh Bachan type) is best known for selling the Taj Mahal, The Red Fort and the Rashtrapati Bhavan.
Frank Abagnale (Catch Me If You Can fame) impersonated a doctor, a lawyer, and a pilot. He even logged 2 million miles of flying and cleared the bar exam.
Are these cases for better crime detection? Or just the correct use cases for verifiable credentials?
Join us as we talk with our favourite guest, Pramod Varma and unravel the complexities behind this new need of the digital era.

Who is Santa Claus? Is he the source of unending joy and happiness for children worldwide that we have all been led to believe?
Or could he be the first MCU hero with superpowers like super speed, super insight and a super cool ride.
Or, as we, at 3TB, suspect, he is a tech geek who loves playing around with quantum mechanics with the right splattering of AI, digital cloning, warp-speed mobility and other alien tech.
OMG - could Santa be an alien?
Find out in the 3TB Christmas special.

Could a banana split or a split personality have anything to do with the fact we share 50% of our DNA with bananas? Scientific facts or outrageous humour? A little of both, really.
And the next time you meticulously pick out unwanted items from your food, remember you're just channeling your inner rock star. Ask Van Halen about their brown M&M snacks.
Speaking of refreshments, that glass of water you're sipping might just have a prehistoric past. Thanks to the unending water cycle and the laws of physics that prevent matter from being created or destroyed, your H2O could very well contain molecules that once quenched the thirst of dinosaurs. Or as the title suggests.....
So, this episode is a toast to your ancient, banana-sharing, rock-star-emulating, dinosaur-sipping existence. It’s a quirky world we live in. Have Fun.
In India's market, returns are the king,Outshining others, the bell they do ring.With growth so robust,In the Sensex, we trust,To investors, great joy they do bring.
To save on their taxes, firms sail far and wide,To Ireland and Delaware, they smoothly glide.With cleverness and stealth,They amass their wealth,In havens, their profits do hide.
Purple, once rare, adorned only the elite,A colour of royalty, none could compete.From snails, it was born,Now widely worn,Its history of luxury, none can defeat.

We are guessing that the "Naughty" in the title is what got you hooked. That is smart sales personship (note gender neutrality here 😉 ). Or another set of super interesting stories from the "House of 3TB". This is inspired by the calls we get from the "House of Abhinandan Lodha" to buy houses we cannot afford.
Not sure why they are not calling from the office, though 🤣🤣🤣.
So get busy listening.
Despite our population, there are no Indian books in the Top 10 Most Read List. Disturbing!!!. Recovering from that discovery, we explore the world of "Join the Dots', Atto Seconds and broken ice cream machines.
How would an LLM respond to the question of whether the earth was flat or round in the 1500s? Could it have saved Galileo?
Have fun "shorting". Is that even a word? 😆🤣🤣😂😂
Picture a gleaming kitchen, not of stainless steel and polished marble, but of code and algorithms. Here, the head chef isn't human, but a complex generative AI armed with a digital Swiss army knife that cuts, slices, dices, and blends through lines of code. The pantry? Forget neatly labelled jars and neatly stacked shelves. This is a digital garbage pile – fragments of text, snippets of code and images culled from the internet's deepest corners.
What happens next is more euphonic than gastronomic - this is a podcast - silly.

From ancient mummies navigating modern red tape to towns tweaking their names for reasons you will shortly understand, the world's tapestry of tales never ceases to amuse and astonish. Which is where we come in. In fact, this mummy's travel tale is a reminder of how time, in both literal and bureaucratic senses, can be surprisingly elastic, very unlike the "Jiffy" in our episode.
Join us yet again for a regular diet of "battle the traffic with wit".

Hum Shayar to Nahin. Magar......We love to rhyme. So here goes
In Silicon Valley, where tech dreams ignite,There's a squad of women, in code and gadgets who are pretty bright.They code like a breeze, debug without a fight,In a world where ones and zeros dance day and night.
In this high-tech realm, James Bond might roam,With his sleek gadgets, far from his London home.Sipping his secret martini, shaken with a foam,He marvels at the tech in this innovation dome.
And out on the green, where the Google signs gleam,Goats graze calmly, as if part of a dream.They munch, and they bask in the digital stream,With tech and Border Collie in harmony, it would seem.

Once I stood proud in homes adorned with grace,Crafted with care, I had my place.Now in a bakery's warm embrace,I fuel the flames, no trace of space.From resting weary bones to a fiery dance,I've changed my role, not left to chance.What am I?
If you got this, you could be the Riddler, the supervillain from Batman. Or just the right kind of crazy who loves our Shorts. And you would know that each great riddle has a story. And the story behind this one is hidden in our podcast.
So - keep listening to us for those free tickles.

If you thought PPP stood only for Public-Private Partnerships, you are not much of a writer. At 3TB, we think PPP should only mean Petrache Poenaru Pen - dedicated to the inventor of the fountain pen. With everyone agitating for a name change, it is time for us fountain pen activists to get a pen named after its creator. That seems to be a just cause.
And now we come to the trickiest word in the English language - arse. A quick search yielded 34 ways to use it as an idiom or in a sentence. Then there is the usage itself, which is confusing - bad-arse is good; smart-arse is bad. Sometimes it is just added to be cool - lazy arse is lazy, and a long-arse flight is just a long flight. Quite puzzling. Our story is not no ordinary fruit - it is the Arse Fruit.
For that and more intriguing insights, listen to our shorts.

In this episode, we take you deep into the wondering world of the QWERTY keyboard, where:
the longest top-row word is 'rupturewort', a type of plant
Peru is the only country that can be typed on one row of a keyboard
If you type letters using alternate hands, skepticism is the longest typed word you can type
And then we come to a scene out of Yes Minister, where three barrages on the Yamuna River are managed by three different states - Haryana, Delhi and Uttar Pradesh. This can only be a backdrop for a Wodehousian novel, not flood management in the capital city.
Some more tickles and laughs in store for you in this edition of Shorts.

Do you understand the token economy? If yes, then you are in exalted company - the company of Psittacus Erithacus. No, it is not a Roman Emperor. It is the big-brained African Grey Parrot. They are known to exchange currency for food. Parrots also have some other attractive traits, which will be revealed in the episode.
The shortest cameo in a movie is possibly Brad Pitt for 8 seconds in Deadpool 2. Compensation - coffee with Ryan Reynolds. This is an Oscar winner doing a cameo. But there are also cameos (really small parts) that won Oscars. Who were they? You know what you must do to know that - (no - the answer is not - "I will Google Search it").
That was a sneak peek into what is in store for you.

People find all kinds of new ways to use tech and devices. In 2010, the United States Air Force used 1,760 PlayStation 3 consoles to build a supercomputer for the Department of Defense. They used PS3s because it was more cost-efficient and “green.”
Closer to home, we had washing machines making lassi and buffaloes using Lifebuoy. So we thought - why not find out if ChatGPT knew how to take out a peanut butter sandwich stuck inside a VCR? The caveat - the instructions should be in the tonality of the St. James Bible.
That and more in this ROFL-worthy edition of Shorts.

BTW - When the first VCR (Video Camera Recorder) was made in 1956, it was the size of a piano.
Emboldened by your response to our first "Shorts", we are back with our next episode.
Our knowledge-seeking journey led us to find the longest (and possibly "wisest") living land being. From then onto parrots on the token economy, hamburgers and Hamburg and practical tips on the right time to garnish your homemade pizza with toppings.
We also delve into the mysterious world of data extrapolation and the possibility that the propeller on the aeroplane could just be a fan.
Hopefully that should prove to be an earful of fun.
