Highlights

The speaker discusses using computational methods to analyze large amounts of data and gain new insights.

Machine learning techniques can find patterns in data that humans may miss or have difficulty detecting.

Advanced statistical models allow researchers to uncover correlations and make predictions in complex datasets.

Visualization tools help make large, high-dimensional data more interpretable and actionable.

Open sharing of code, data, and models facilitates reproducibility, validation, and further advancement.

Data science and AI have applications across many domains including healthcare, transportation, education, and sustainability.

Bias in data and algorithms can propagate and lead to unfair or unethical outcomes if not addressed properly.

Regulations around data privacy, security, and usage are important but can also hinder innovation if not balanced.

Multidisciplinary collaboration between technologists, domain experts, social scientists, and policymakers is key.

AI systems should be designed and evaluated not just for accuracy but for robustness, security, transparency, and fairness.

Further progress requires focusing on data quality, model interpretability, technical infrastructure, and workforce development.

Overall, data science and AI can drive insights and innovation but should not be treated as a cure-all or panacea.

Thoughtful governance and ethical application of these technologies is crucial as they continue to transform society.

It is an exciting time, but managing risks and setting reasonable expectations will be vital moving forward.

The speaker concludes by emphasizing the importance of asking critical questions about how data science and AI get built, deployed, and regulated.

play00:00

I'm Jacob I'm Yuri and we're going for a

play00:04

[Applause]

play00:10

[Music]

play00:12

drive 2024 Toyota Rav 4 Hybrid Woodland

play00:16

Edition 2024 Honda CRV hybrid and we're

play00:19

comparing the best-selling SUVs

play00:22

everybody wants fuel economy these days

play00:24

saving some money so we got these both

play00:26

in hybrid trims let's get to the fuel

play00:29

economy

play00:30

this Toyota is rated at a combined 6 L

play00:33

per 100 km and that Honda is rated at a

play00:36

combined 6.4 L per 100 km and we reset

play00:39

them both at the beginning of the day

play00:41

not doing any highway I'm getting 8.8 L

play00:43

per 100 km in the Honda and I'm getting

play00:46

8.3 L per 100 km in the Toyota slightly

play00:49

edging out that CRV according to the

play00:51

data which is also accurate now let's

play00:53

get to the horsepower and torque this

play00:56

Toyota has a combined 219 horsepower and

play00:59

2 21 lbet of torque from a 2.5 L 4

play01:02

cylinder hybrid and that Honda has a

play01:04

combined 204 horsepower 247 lb feet of

play01:08

torque from a 2 L 4-cylinder hybrid all

play01:10

right put it in your sportiest mode I'm

play01:12

going to Sport and drive in the CRV

play01:15

Sport and Sport

play01:21

shifting oh yeah

play01:25

baby not only is this more fuel

play01:28

efficient it is even faster than that

play01:31

yeah really really impressive isn't it I

play01:35

guess so I mean that is actually pretty

play01:36

impressive and we both have cvts and

play01:38

they do like to sing the song of their

play01:40

people yeah yeah I think we got like

play01:42

ecvts in both but I think the raap 4's

play01:44

got a little bit more electric motor

play01:45

stuff either way they are not plugin

play01:48

hybrids they're just regular hybrids so

play01:50

you don't have an electric only range

play01:52

showing anywhere and the Toyota at least

play01:54

has an option to do that because the Rav

play01:57

4 Prime exists but there is no plug-in

play01:59

Hy version of the CRV at least not yet

play02:02

yo check this out I'm going to hit the B

play02:04

mode on my shifter and regenerate to a

play02:07

slower speed can you do that in the Rav

play02:09

4 uh no I can't eruri I have a sports

play02:12

shifting mode because this is a sports

play02:15

uh enthusia vehicle with up and down for

play02:17

uh shifting my fake gears and if you are

play02:20

shopping for one of these and you want

play02:21

great gas mileage and a great price go

play02:23

to tsp. truecar.com for discounted price

play02:26

offers these are the bestselling

play02:28

vehicles from each brand and so you're

play02:30

going to have a lot to compare from no

play02:32

matter where you're located and you can

play02:33

also search across the whole country too

play02:36

maybe fly from California to Florida and

play02:37

drive one back I would love to do that

play02:39

at least California back home because

play02:41

man that'd be fun what's cool is I have

play02:43

paddles in the CRV the r four doesn't

play02:45

and with the paddles I can adjust my

play02:47

regen and what's very cool is if you're

play02:49

in D mode after you come to a slow speed

play02:52

it resets so it's not like you're stuck

play02:54

in one pedal is driving mode which is

play02:56

nice to have sometimes when you're in

play02:58

your B mode in CRV in this Toyota it's

play03:00

very simple there's nothing to think

play03:01

about in terms of the hybrid system the

play03:03

car just kind of does everything on its

play03:04

own however I do have a EV mode button

play03:07

but if I'm driving the speed limit right

play03:09

now which is pretty low if I press that

play03:10

button I get an error because it tells

play03:13

me that my speed range has exceeded and

play03:15

that's at the speed limit so basically

play03:17

if you're driving in EV mode that is for

play03:19

stop and go traffic or parking lots only

play03:22

yeah yours doesn't go over 40 km an hour

play03:24

and this one really goes to EV when

play03:26

you're going like slow slow but you

play03:28

can't control it at all and and with the

play03:30

EV modes I feel like we should listen to

play03:32

both of them from the

play03:34

[Applause]

play03:38

[Music]

play03:43

outside pretty crazy interesting ghost

play03:46

Phantom sounds yeah I think Rav 4 is

play03:49

spooky and then CRV is more uh holy yes

play03:53

I agree with that and in terms of Drive

play03:55

modes I do have the Woodland Edition so

play03:57

I've got a trail mode that I can take

play04:00

this thing Offroad and then I've got

play04:01

sport normal and Eco I got snow Eco

play04:04

normal and Sport Eco I guess gets you

play04:07

into EV a little more it's all good very

play04:09

easy to see and I like how it resets in

play04:11

Eco so with this being a woodland

play04:14

Edition I would like to focus on some

play04:16

looks Yuri because mine looks stunning I

play04:18

could take this thing out on the trails

play04:20

and I would fit right in with this thing

play04:22

army green looks is my favorite part of

play04:24

cars as you know and the thing I like

play04:26

the least about the looks of this CRV is

play04:29

black fraking Wheels especially compared

play04:31

to that Rav 4 are you kidding me ah yeah

play04:35

this Woodland Edition really takes this

play04:37

thing up a not you don't have to get

play04:38

that you can save some money because

play04:40

this is the lowest trim from Toyota The

play04:42

XLE trim that you can get the hybrid in

play04:44

and that CRV is all new for this year

play04:46

for Canada which is the EXL trim but

play04:48

more importantly what tires should you

play04:50

put on your CRV or Rav 4 that you buy

play04:54

the Continental cross contact lx25 and

play04:57

then since it's winter here as you can

play04:59

see we would love the Viking contact

play05:01

sevens up here so back to my exclusive

play05:03

army green paint with these lovely

play05:05

bronze Wheels the design of the wheels

play05:07

is amazing it's kind of like a t37 is I

play05:10

love it yeah I think the Rav 4 looks

play05:13

better it's got two-tone black roof but

play05:16

I mean the CRV just looks nice and

play05:18

normal really average yeah the CRV does

play05:22

look more luxurious from the outside

play05:23

like it looks like a more premium car

play05:25

compared to the Rav 4 who's got the

play05:27

better exhaust tips uh I don't really

play05:30

know so the Rav 4 has these like black

play05:33

finishers on top of these small little

play05:35

pipes yeah I'd rev the CRV for you but

play05:38

it does not rev but then the CRV has the

play05:40

kind of chrome exhaust finishers that go

play05:42

around it which almost these days look

play05:44

more premium they're both kind of fake

play05:45

but the rap fors are slightly more real

play05:48

uh which fender flares do you like more

play05:49

boxy is or roundish I love the boxiness

play05:52

I think the body lines of the wp 4 even

play05:54

though it's like an old design still

play05:55

looks good uh but this looks nice it's

play05:58

got nicer headlights on the the CRV

play06:00

you've got like headlights that are

play06:01

always on on the Rav 4 and then nicer

play06:03

tail lights in the CRV as well and they

play06:05

are LED on the CRV which they are hogen

play06:07

on the Rav 4 and then piano black door

play06:10

handles on the Rav 4 that's pretty nice

play06:12

mine are just color matched and we both

play06:14

have proximity touch just at the front

play06:16

and this being the Woodland Edition I

play06:18

also get cross barss and a roof rack up

play06:20

top yeah well if you're a woodland man

play06:23

with your Woodland suspension tuned then

play06:25

uh you should have that yeah I've got

play06:28

TRD tuned suspension which honestly

play06:31

makes this less comfortable it's a

play06:33

little bit stiff on the road it's not

play06:35

too stiff but it is noticeable

play06:36

especially in comparison to that very

play06:38

luxurious ride in that CRV all right

play06:40

let's pull over somewhere snowy and then

play06:42

switch cars I want to drive that RAV

play06:44

four a little bit okay Yuri let's launch

play06:47

them oh okay Woodland floor mats that's

play06:50

pretty nice are they nicer than the

play06:52

Honda CRV floor mats um yeah I mean the

play06:56

design is a little bit nicer but Yuri

play06:58

they're really lacking coverage

play07:00

yeah I think they both lose compared to

play07:01

a set of tuxmat and speaking of tuxmat

play07:04

my buddy just got a CRV so I hooking him

play07:07

up with a set of tux mat to replace his

play07:09

winter ones so he gets a lot more

play07:10

coverage and keeps those carpets clean

play07:12

for his brand new car for as long as he

play07:14

can keep it get your own set of tuxmat

play07:16

at tuxmat

play07:20

docomo you have officially been

play07:24

tuxed now for the least important test

play07:27

launch control which these don't have

play07:28

but I'm going a brake boost

play07:35

it oh my God it is simulating those

play07:37

gears real quick not a bad launch at

play07:41

[Applause]

play07:45

All Sport shifting sport mode Let's Stay

play07:48

pin

play07:58

CVT

play08:00

[Applause]

play08:03

yeah you know what it's always more fun

play08:05

doing the CVT launches in a Subaru where

play08:06

you see the tack stay pinned I mean that

play08:08

one's doing the same thing you just

play08:10

don't see the tack cuz it doesn't have

play08:11

one that's what I'm telling you and the

play08:13

first thing I noticed with this is that

play08:15

it does have a weirder brake pedal in

play08:17

the ra 4 than the CRV not deal breaker

play08:20

but noticeably like there's a step where

play08:22

you kind of to get used to it that's

play08:24

exactly how I would word it as well in

play08:26

terms of power these have just over 200

play08:28

horsepower completely adequate the

play08:31

hybrid feels like it really adds

play08:32

something to these cars I don't feel

play08:33

like I'm lacking at all I agree but seat

play08:36

Comfort which one do you find more

play08:38

comfortable I actually think the seat is

play08:41

nicer in the Rav 4 sitting in the seat I

play08:44

also agree with that but these uh

play08:46

leather or whatever leather-like

play08:48

substance is in this Honda actually feel

play08:50

quite nice yeah it's a little more

play08:52

luxurious in that than in the rap 4 I

play08:54

would actually say this Honda is a huge

play08:56

step up in terms of what the interior

play08:58

looks like the materials the finishes

play09:01

but this one is more expensive which we

play09:03

will get to at the end of the video back

play09:04

to the seats do you fit in all rows at

play09:06

6' one and a half because a 5'8 I'm fine

play09:08

in all of them I fit completely fine in

play09:11

all of them however I do find more space

play09:13

in the back of the CRV I think if you

play09:15

look at the trunk both have an equal

play09:17

amount of room uh the Rav 4 has a plug

play09:20

back there which is pretty cool and they

play09:22

both have power Trunks and then as for

play09:24

lumbar I think the lumbar is a little

play09:26

better in the Honda the raav 4 feels

play09:28

like a little more pointy into my spine

play09:31

and the Honda being the more expensive

play09:32

car actually has memory seats on the

play09:34

driver's side which the Toyota does not

play09:36

okay heated seats heated steering wheels

play09:39

which one gets hotter and which one

play09:40

covers more so the Honda has to have the

play09:43

wind for that because it actually heats

play09:45

the entire steering wheel whereas the

play09:47

Toyota only heats the grippy parts on

play09:49

the left and right sides not the top and

play09:51

bottom and they both have heated seats

play09:53

and we do have manual climate control

play09:55

for both which is lovely in the Honda we

play09:57

have this tactile kind of loud sound

play09:59

which feels

play10:02

premium yes and in the Rav 4 we've got

play10:05

the rubbery coated ones which you can

play10:07

feel but you don't hear the which I

play10:09

think is actually better because the

play10:11

Honda sounds a little plastick here it

play10:13

is a little plasticky but it's also kind

play10:14

of nice and then we also have a volume

play10:16

knob in that same finish and then I have

play10:18

a home and a back button as well yes

play10:21

this is where we talk about the

play10:22

infotainments and the rav 41 is not as

play10:25

good it doesn't have the update yet that

play10:27

the Corolla cross had so when you're in

play10:29

apple carplay which is wired or Wireless

play10:31

you need to scroll through to click your

play10:33

Toyota button to get back where the

play10:35

Honda has that home button on the left

play10:37

the whole time and a bunch of good

play10:39

shortcuts at the bottom when the home

play10:41

button is up for your fm and Sirus XM

play10:43

and all that kind of stuff and the Honda

play10:45

also has wired and wireless Android auto

play10:47

and apple carplay and then sound systems

play10:50

I think the Honda's a clear winner here

play10:52

yeah that Toyota is very tiny sounding I

play10:55

would say up there with the worst sounds

play10:57

I've ever heard from a car you you know

play10:59

these sound systems are going to be

play11:00

rough when the logo of the car is on the

play11:03

speaker covers yeah I would say

play11:06

that and speaking of logos of the car to

play11:08

go back to looks both of these have blue

play11:11

in the logos because electricity oh wow

play11:15

so creative from both companies all

play11:16

right and now to something that grinds

play11:18

my gears the Honda CRV has remote start

play11:21

on the key fob that trim does not have

play11:24

access to an app to control it I like

play11:27

that this Toyota can also remote start

play11:30

the car by clicking the lock button

play11:32

three times and holding it on the key

play11:33

fob but you need to have the paid

play11:36

subscription stuff to have that

play11:37

eventually that'll run out and then you

play11:39

won't be able to remote start your car

play11:41

from the key fob in 10 years unless

play11:43

you're paying for it y I mean these are

play11:45

both kind of disposable because uh I

play11:47

won't go that far but at one point you

play11:50

will have to replace the Hybrid battery

play11:52

in both of these for an approximate cost

play11:54

of between 2,000 to potentially $8,000

play11:58

that is what I found online will that

play12:01

take away from all the fuel savings over

play12:03

the year when you add labor to it and

play12:05

maybe trying to find that part and

play12:07

getting a rental car while it's in the

play12:09

shop yes absolutely however if you pass

play12:12

those costs on to the next owner and you

play12:14

just sell this vehicle prior to the

play12:17

battery needing replacement then you're

play12:19

good to go ooh sneaky sneaky okay how

play12:22

about moving on to gauge clusters I

play12:23

think it's very cool that the Rav 4 can

play12:25

tell you the temperature of your

play12:27

engine yeah real cool yeah you can see

play12:30

the cooling temperature uh in the Honda

play12:32

for some reason we haven't been able to

play12:33

find it in this half digital gauge

play12:35

cluster so if you guys have one of these

play12:38

uh hybrid specifically and you know what

play12:40

your cooling temperature is let us know

play12:42

cuz we have literally tried every menu

play12:44

option we can't find it I just want to

play12:45

know when my car is warm enough to blast

play12:47

the heat that's why you use the

play12:49

autoclimate function you're even let the

play12:50

car take care of it speaking of

play12:52

autoclimate function the fan does slow

play12:55

down when you're on a phone call on

play12:57

Apple carplay which is nice and then

play12:58

this CRV being so much more expensive

play13:00

than that Rav 4 I've got a wireless

play13:02

charger down here and then this only has

play13:04

usba for your Apple carplay but the CRV

play13:07

has usba for app carplay but USBC just

play13:10

for charging which is interesting and

play13:13

the Honda also has better cup holders I

play13:15

would say they are full pass and the

play13:17

Toyota they're a little bit too deep

play13:19

yeah yeah a little little risky there

play13:20

how about the visors oh no I think this

play13:22

is going to be good in this one three

play13:24

two one

play13:26

ah yes Full Pass in the Honda there's

play13:30

officially no reason to pick the Rav 4

play13:32

over the CRV just kidding just kidding

play13:34

actually there might be because the

play13:35

Toyota can tow 15500 lb and this Honda

play13:38

only 1,000 this already has a trailer

play13:41

hitch on it that is literally the

play13:43

difference between another jet ski or

play13:45

not and then the last nice little thing

play13:47

we both have very clear reverse cameras

play13:50

which is good not last because we are

play13:52

driving on a somewhat of a highway not

play13:54

really we do have Highway assists for

play13:56

both of these where you have Lane

play13:58

centering and adaptive cruise and they

play14:00

both work really well yeah I think Honda

play14:02

might win by a little bit yeah I would

play14:04

honestly tie them and different

play14:05

scenarios would issue different results

play14:08

all right now let's rip through cliche

play14:09

corner just for fun even though it

play14:11

doesn't matter in these cars and figure

play14:13

out which one we like once we get to the

play14:15

price so rather than focusing on driving

play14:18

Dynamics through cliche corner I'm going

play14:20

to focus on ride comfort and I think I'm

play14:23

going to win in this Honda even though

play14:25

I'm not necessarily gunning for any of

play14:26

these cars but this is definitely the

play14:28

more comfortable one yeah it's

play14:29

definitely more comfortable than CRV you

play14:30

notice the Rav 4 suspension being a

play14:33

little annoying cuz it's the Woodland

play14:35

but some people are woodland people

play14:37

that's right if I was wearing my

play14:38

Lumberjack outfit I'd probably have to

play14:40

go with that Woodland trim but I'm not

play14:42

so here I am turning into cliche corner

play14:44

with this lovely steering wheel R 4

play14:47

seems pretty composed through here lots

play14:49

of junk flying around in the trunk yeah

play14:52

I'm not exactly pulling away from you or

play14:54

anything like that so I mean pretty much

play14:56

tied feel like I can cut to curb a

play14:59

little more with my Woodland suspension

play15:02

a few moments later and dropping back

play15:04

into cliche Corner in the opposite

play15:06

Vehicles going over the bump and the rav

play15:08

Fort yeah not a soft all right yo let's

play15:10

get piped oh we're getting piped under

play15:14

steer City oh yeah dude I think the the

play15:17

hot is a little bit better through here

play15:19

you're flying all over the map yeah I

play15:21

know with my TRD tune suspension I think

play15:23

it's tuned for the off-road I kind of

play15:25

like the sound of this Honda when you're

play15:26

ripping it it's like kind of kind of

play15:28

better than the r four I know this kind

play15:30

of sounds a little bit coarse than the

play15:32

Rav 4 if I was to floor

play15:34

it yeah a little CVT screamy all right I

play15:37

think with all that out of the way it's

play15:39

time to get to the price the Toyota is

so much cheaper at $

play15:44

41,9 30 Canadian and that Honda is

play15:57

$47,700 CRV hybrid you can get for as

play16:00

little as

play16:01

$345 and the Rav 4 hybrid for

play16:04

31725 but this review makes perfect

play16:07

sense cuz both of these are the cheapest

play16:10

trimmed hybrids you can get of these

play16:12

right that's right so if you're looking

play16:13

to save the most money but get the

play16:16

hybrid trim minus this Woodland Edition

play16:19

thing yes this is what you'd get in

play16:21

Canada so are there any deal breakers

play16:23

between the two to me the only deal

play16:25

breaker is thing I think is the remote

play16:27

start but besides that they're both very

play16:30

nice non-plug-in hybrid SUVs I would say

play16:33

that's not even a deal breaker Because

play16:35

by the time you get to that remote start

play16:36

thing being not a subscription service

play16:38

you already probably have to replace the

play16:39

Hybrid battery on this that is a good

play16:42

point so let us know which one of these

play16:44

you would pick is it the Rav 4 is it the

play16:46

CRV is it something else yeah let us

play16:49

know which one you're buying on tsp.

play16:51

truecar.com and share this video with

play16:53

somebody who's looking for one of these

play16:54

cuz like let's be real Honda Toyota

play16:57

these are the ones you're shopping for

play16:59

you really looking for a k Hyundai with

play17:00

this I don't know exactly and not to cop

play17:03

out on an answer I'm going to pick the

play17:04

Rav 4 just because it is significantly

play17:06

less money at least in Canada and I

play17:08

think I would go with the Honda just

play17:09

because I like the infotainment a little

play17:11

bit more with the home in the back

play17:12

button and I do really like the remote

play17:14

start key fob which I've been using a

play17:16

ton since it's cold outside now thanks
