Argument matching parameter 'baseAddresses' narrows from 'Object' to 'System.Uri'

I am creating a WCF Service in a Console application (based on the article. I cannot post the URL to the article. ). I am getting the error in the title of this article on the second DIM statement.

What does it mean?
And how do I eliminate it?

Imports System.ServiceModel
Imports System.ServiceModel.Description

Module Module1
    Dim uri = New Uri("http://localhost:8240/demo/wcf/samples")
    Dim host As New ServiceHost(GetType(PersonService), uri)  '<== Error occurs here. The uri is underlined in blue with this error message.
    Sub Main()

    End Sub
    'Argument matching parameter 'baseAddresses' narrows from 'Object' to 'System.Uri'
End Module

You've declared uri as object instead of Uri.

So obvious. I must have looked at that line 20 times and never saw it. Just use AS instead of "=".  Thank you.
