Hello and welcome to Mac Power Users. My name is Stephen Hackett. I'm joined by my friend and

yours, Mr. David Sparks. Hey, Stephen. How are you today? I am good. How are you?

I'm making it, man. I'm making it. Good. We got a lot going on, but keeping busy and everybody's doing well.

This is headed towards the end of the year, so I thought today a fun topic would be looking

back at what worked in the last year, what didn't, maybe a little bit.

Before we get started, though, any announcements?

You know, this is the end of the year. I got nothing. I'm tapped out for announcements.

Me either. That's good. Yeah.

I guess my announcement would be everybody makes sure to have a good time on the holidays.

There you go. I've got a video going out in the labs on this topic, but, you know, the FBI just did a big announcement about

the AI voice generation stuff is getting so good that they expect that people are going to

start scamming you by calling. It's going to sound just like your wife or your husband or

whatever. So when you're with your family, this holiday, come up with a secret word.

Figure out a secret word.

There you go.

You know, I think that's, that's my announcement.

Yeah.

We have one for our home security system, right?

So like, if it gets set off, you know, you have to tell the company, whatever, this is the word.

I can never remember it.

And so I actually have it.

I have it in one password.
