NEW - Pixel Phones, Pregnancy Robots, and the Future of Tech

From smartphones to science fiction made real, Shane Hewitt and tech expert Kris Abel break down the latest in technology. Health Canada has just approved Google Pixel phones to use their built-in temperature sensor for personal health checks, making forehead scans part of everyday life. At the same time, Google’s Pixel 10 lineup is unveiled—featuring AI-powered tools like Magic Cue, Camera Coach, and a 100x telephoto zoom. And in China, a company is developing a pregnancy robot with an artificial womb—raising both excitement and ethical questions. It’s a conversation at the crossroads of innovation, health, and the future.
