 Paul went to GE, he looked at technology, you love technology. I love GE and my open careers. Take a look at this and thanks again Jimmy, thank you so much. You're right, brother, great show. Thanks everybody. Hi, I'm Paul Miller with The Verge. I'm in a car right now and I'm in upstate New York. I'm about to check out GE's research labs and I've been tweeting back and forth with GE just trying to get a vibe, you know, what's GE into, you know, what does GE eat for breakfast? And, you know, I think I have a lot to learn. I've got a lot of questions, you know, and I'm ready to find some answers. So we are the central technology organization for GE and in that role we support every GE business. From healthcare to energy to aviation to transportation. It's great to be at the center of all that stuff going on in the world. So this is GE's new WattStation ecosystem. So, you know, you can show up here, charge your car and stuff, but they also want to tie into surrounding services. You can maybe reserve a rental car. We actually rented a, not rented, purchased a pizza. Nobody really knows what's going to happen or how it's going to be used, but by packing all this smart technology in there, there's some really potentially emergent applications that can come out of it. But mostly it's going to be for pizza delivery. What are these closets for? So this is cancer, is that correct? Look at this. I'm like a professional already. Enhanced. They've got a prototype wireless patient monitor. What are all these little closets in each one? So I'm at GE's trip optimizer, which is sort of like an autopilot for Tray. That's right. The thing the trip optimizer does differently, it anticipates where this speed reduction is and backs off on the throttle. So it only goes to idle. How do you do blue sparks? Blue sparks? Yeah, in Mario Kart you toggle the joystick back and forth and you get the blue sparks and that gives you a speed boost. With the laser, we bring our components together with square edges. Bring them together, use the high energy density of the laser to penetrate straight through that. I was told like if you're making a battleship, you're saving hundreds, thousands of tons. You know, I'm actually looking... I haven't welded a battleship yet. That's what I'm looking at doing and it turns out there'd be a lot of waste of metal. So I'm just shopping around for the best way to create my own battleship. So this is a dead man switch that allows us to start and stop the process. And if the laser kills you while it's welding... I will let go of the button. You'll let go and it'll stop. The process will stop. Even though you'll be dead, the laser will stop, which is the important part. Everybody else will be safe. Great. All right, let's do this. Fire. It's battleship grade. You know, when I think about the world, I think about our world, our shared planet, shared existence, the resources, the finite resources we have. Think about energy and smart grids and electric vehicles. Eventually I just think about the great research they're doing here in the middle of New York State somewhere in the middle of the ocean. The middle of New York State somewhere, somewhere at the Global Research Center. This is Paul Miller signing off. I actually have no idea what they do up here. I get the overwhelming impression you didn't understand a lot of stuff. Dude, I found cancer. Is that true? You found it. You're like, that's it?

 just trying to get a vibe, you know, what's GE into, you know, what does GE eat for breakfast?
 And, you know, I think I have a lot to learn.
 I've got a lot of questions, you know, and I'm ready to find some answers.
