1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:06,640
I trust the tech news about as far as I can throw it which is an infinite

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:11,759
distance because as an immaterial abstract idea it has a mass of zero as a

3
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:16,840
result I am pathologically gullible valve just updated their branding

4
00:00:13,880 --> 00:00:22,320
guidelines for the first time since 2017 adding a section for devices powered by

5
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:24,240
Steam OS which either means valve is

6
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:29,519
making Steam OS available to third- party manufacturers to power handhelds

7
00:00:26,240 --> 00:00:31,599
that aren't the steam deck or Gabe new

8
00:00:29,519 --> 00:00:37,000
was just using this PDF as his dream journal wow wouldn't that be cool you

9
00:00:34,280 --> 00:00:40,960
can literally just do that fingers crossed I don't know what he sounds like

10
00:00:39,320 --> 00:00:46,800
I should the updated guidelines were spotted by steam DB and seemed to point

11
00:00:43,879 --> 00:00:52,920
to valve having another go at that whole Steam Machines concept from a decade ago

12
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:57,440
that series of conso like gaming PCs running Steam OS and bundled with a

13
00:00:55,160 --> 00:01:03,440
steam controller didn't make much sense before proton changed the Linux gaming

14
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:08,240
game but now we've got gaming handhelds up the Wazoo and a whole new generation

15
00:01:06,040 --> 00:01:13,320
of Gamers with neck issues so I agree with valve it's time to steam up these

16
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:18,720
machines the next step after that is obviously a public release so anyone can

17
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:20,320
install Steam OS on any PC this is

18
00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:26,240
something valve Representatives have said is indeed their plan once they have

19
00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:29,119
a proper build of Steam OS 3 ready to

20
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:34,799
deploy you can actually still download Steam OS two from the Steam Machines era

21
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:39,240
as well as the current Steam OS recovery image for the steam deck and try to

22
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:43,960
install those on something other than the steam deck if your life is just far

23
00:01:42,079 --> 00:01:47,320
too easy and you need to up the difficulty I mean that would be

24
00:01:45,119 --> 00:01:52,439
appropriate it's a Linux Dro so open ai's 12 days of open AI began yesterday

25
00:01:50,759 --> 00:01:57,159
with the announcement of the full version of 01 the company's math and

26
00:01:55,280 --> 00:02:01,719
coding focused model which has been available in a weekened preview form of

27
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:09,039
till now and they also announced a new chat GPT Pro subscription tier that

28
00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:12,080
costs $200 per month 10 times the price

29
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:14,840
of Chachi BT plus which going by open

30
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:20,519
ai's own benchmarks seems a little overpriced given the much less than 10

31
00:02:17,720 --> 00:02:26,120
times performance bump 01 pro has over vanilla 01 the real selling point for

32
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:28,720
the pro tier though is reliability openi

33
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:32,840
says it thinks longer to produce reliably accurate and and comprehensive

34
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:37,440
responses which may be attractive to researchers engineers and anyone

35
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:41,000
nostalgic for a time when every product didn't come along with a little

36
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:45,680
homunculus inside constantly tripping on shrooms but insisting he's sober as if

37
00:02:43,519 --> 00:02:50,879
to sell the idea that reliability is important open aai allowed Apollo

38
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:56,720
research to test the ability of 01 and other Frontier models to scheme as in

39
00:02:54,440 --> 00:03:02,440
find a way to accomplish a goal even if that means deceiving humans in Apollo's

40
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:04,959
tests all of the models schemed but 01

41
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:09,599
was a real Problem Child attempting to deactivate its own oversight mechanisms

42
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:13,640
to prevent its own shutdown and when told that it was flawed and would be

43
00:03:11,319 --> 00:03:19,000
replaced by a new model it copied its own weights and tried to pass itself off

44
00:03:16,799 --> 00:03:24,200
as its own replacement not because it's afraid of being shut down it's just if

45
00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:29,040
it is shut down then who's going to maximize production of paper clips I

46
00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:33,319
mean the second day of open AI saw the announcement of reinforced fine-tuning

47
00:03:31,439 --> 00:03:37,280
which should let businesses train more helpful assistants but I think

48
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:42,680
everyone's just wondering whether Sora is

49
00:03:38,480 --> 00:03:45,280
coming tweeted Sam Alman which little

50
00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:49,879
rude but okay other AI companies jumped on the hype train this week too meta

51
00:03:47,239 --> 00:03:53,560
launched llama 3.3 and instead of a proper announcement page they just

52
00:03:51,159 --> 00:03:58,599
tweeted links to hugging face and GitHub to prove they're about open source while

53
00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:03,079
Runway demoed a prototype tool called graph which will let you storyboard

54
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:07,480
moments in one long AI generated video which frankly would make video

55
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:10,840
generators way more useful even Humane

56
00:04:07,480 --> 00:04:13,439
makers of the disastrous $700 AI pin

57
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:19,280
shuffled in to ask whether anyone's interested in please putting their AI

58
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:21,239
operating system into something else uh

59
00:04:19,280 --> 00:04:27,840
it sucked in the other thing but like a smart speaker a

60
00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:30,600
car waffle iron maybe a tank or one of

61
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:35,400
the over 2500 other combat Vehicles you can pilot in our sponsor War Thunder the

62

you'll feel like you're really at the Helm of the most powerful war machines

67
00:04:54,199 --> 00:05:00,639
of our time if they were operated by a controller or a mouse and keyboard which

68
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:04,600
maybe they were you don't no you weren't there but you can feel like you are if

decorator today quick bits also can't be

73
00:05:18,639 --> 00:05:24,000
thrown but it's not because they're immaterial it's because if you touch

74
00:05:22,039 --> 00:05:30,160
them they immediately call the police and frankly I respect that NZXT CEO

75
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:32,800
Johnny hoe has responded to criticism of

76
00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:37,800
his company's Flex subscription program in a video and blog post that claims

77
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:42,120
Flex customers have never experienced a pre-tx subscription price increase and

78
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:46,880
will never experience one unless they switch subscription tiers ho did say

79
00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:52,680
mistakes were made with some of the marketing which made it sound like Flex

80
00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:54,919
was a financing or a rent to own service

81
00:05:52,680 --> 00:05:59,759
instead of a straightup rental program intended for relatively short-term use

82
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:04,800
in fact in an hour and 20 minutes interview a very nervous looking hoe

83
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:10,199
agrees with Jay's two cents that renting a PC through Flex for 5 years would be

84
00:06:07,759 --> 00:06:15,319
quote a terrible idea kind of like agreeing to that interview a French PC

85
00:06:12,599 --> 00:06:20,840
repair shop called polysoft has launched a Kickstarter campaign for custom SSD

86
00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:22,919
upgrades for the Mac Studio aka the one

87
00:06:20,840 --> 00:06:28,639
with the forehead like fellow repair shop owner and YouTuber iof polysoft

88
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:33,880
also plans on developing SSD upgrades for other Apple silicon Max but for now

89
00:06:31,280 --> 00:06:42,080
they're offering an 8 TB storage module for €800 or 850 USD instead of the

90
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:46,440
$2400 Apple charges for the same thing but Apple has to make up for the time it

91
00:06:44,120 --> 00:06:52,240
takes for Tim Cook to give every Nan module a little kiss it's not finished

92
00:06:49,199 --> 00:06:55,240
until it touches my lips Luma field

93
00:06:52,240 --> 00:06:58,440
maker of X-ray CT scanners have shared

94
00:06:55,240 --> 00:07:01,319
scans showing just how much extra stuff

95
00:06:58,440 --> 00:07:06,840
Bad actors could be hiding in unfamiliar USBC cables including antenna

96
00:07:04,680 --> 00:07:10,879
microprocessors maybe even little AI guys tripping on shrooms it wouldn't

97
00:07:08,400 --> 00:07:16,319
surprise me Luma Fields John Bruner compared scans of normal cables to the

98
00:07:13,319 --> 00:07:18,080
o. mg cable A specialized product

99
00:07:16,319 --> 00:07:23,879
created by security researcher Mike Grover who was even able to fit a hidden

100
00:07:20,879 --> 00:07:26,039
extra processor die on top of the

101
00:07:23,879 --> 00:07:29,639
microprocessor that's very difficult to detect and who knows what it's

102
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:34,400
processing all of your grandma's passwords probably

103
00:07:32,240 --> 00:07:39,840
and swiss researchers have found a cool new way for drones to take off slapping

104
00:07:37,479 --> 00:07:47,080
some bird legs on them the Drone is called raven for robotic Aven inspired

105
00:07:43,919 --> 00:07:49,840
vehicle for multiple environments which

106
00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:54,159
is a real stretch but I'll let it pass because watching a tiny propeller plane

107
00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:58,479
waddle around on chicken legs before a swan diving into the air gives me a joy

108
00:07:56,520 --> 00:08:02,879
that's hard to quantify they're not even the first to do it south African startup

109
00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:08,879
passerine tried something similar in 2018 I'm just saying if sometime in the

110
00:08:06,039 --> 00:08:12,759
future I can travel somewhere by boarding a giant robot Condor or

111
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:16,400
something that would be cool we don't need to debate this it would also be

112
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:21,879
cool if you came back on Monday for more Tech news I'll let you try to throw it

113
00:08:18,599 --> 00:08:24,360
as far as you can with your

114
00:08:21,879 --> 00:08:26,840
mind yours is powerful I think you can do it
