WEBVTT

00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:07.080
you know TechLink is fine but I'm considering a new show called TechLink

00:00:04.759 --> 00:00:10.040
light will cut every sentence in half I mean you can extrapolate the rest of

00:00:08.400 --> 00:00:15.200
what I'm going to YouTube has brought back its premium light subscription

00:00:12.599 --> 00:00:19.199
option a year after cancelling it apparently hoping it'll seem a bit more

00:00:16.840 --> 00:00:24.720
enticing to users now that they made it worse see the previous iteration of

00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:27.679
Premium light available in select etions

00:00:24.720 --> 00:00:32.800
got you adree viewing but not downloads or background play for half the cost of

00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:37.399
full premium the new premium light spotted by threads and Reddit users in

00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:42.079
Australia Germany and Thailand still costs around half a regular premium sub

00:00:40.559 --> 00:00:47.360
the only change appears to be that instead of no ads you now see limited

00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:53.480
ads as seen in a screenshot posted by musician Jonah monzano YouTube says this

00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:55.760
means most videos are ad free except for

00:00:53.480 --> 00:01:01.160
music content and shorts and there will be non-interruptive ads when you search

00:00:58.680 --> 00:01:06.400
and browse and sure the ads aren't barking at you like a dog but just by

00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:09.040
being there they interrupt my

00:01:06.400 --> 00:01:12.080
thoughts YouTube confirmed to Android authority that they're bringing the plan

00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:16.200
back but instead of saying they're testing to see whether they can make

00:01:14.080 --> 00:01:20.600
more money while offering users a worse experience for the same price they said

00:01:18.479 --> 00:01:25.840
they're testing a different version that's not bad everybody's different

00:01:23.880 --> 00:01:30.520
some of us are worse Microsoft and open AI have been thick as data Thieves for

00:01:28.520 --> 00:01:35.280
years but now a new New York Times report says the two companies are

00:01:32.320 --> 00:01:39.399
getting on each other's neural networks it technically still works that's what

00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:44.360
Microsoft is getting a little competitive putting more resources into

00:01:41.479 --> 00:01:49.320
building its own AI models and open AI wants even more compute power that's

00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:53.200
probably exacerbating another conundrum they're trying to figure out the

00:01:50.759 --> 00:01:58.479
question of how and when exactly Microsoft is going to see a return on

00:01:55.399 --> 00:02:01.159
the $4 billion they've invested in open

00:01:58.479 --> 00:02:06.119
AI as the Li lied profit controlled by a nonprofit transforms into your garden

00:02:04.039 --> 00:02:10.119
variety for-profit company projecting itself to be both the doom and savior of

00:02:07.680 --> 00:02:15.000
the world you know according to the times some at open aai will blame

00:02:13.160 --> 00:02:20.319
Microsoft for not giving them the compute they need if some other company

00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:24.879
is first to achieve AGI artificial general intelligence however according

00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:30.879
to a clause in their contract if open aai does get to AGI Microsoft loses

00:02:28.160 --> 00:02:34.319
access to the company's AI models how did things get this bad I don't know

00:02:32.599 --> 00:02:39.120
maybe Sam mman has been paying too much attention to his eyeball scanning crypto

00:02:36.760 --> 00:02:45.360
side hustle worldcoin which just rebranded to be just world and unveiled

00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:49.000
a shiny new upgraded orb oh man I thought that thing was done can't keep

00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:53.360
your eyes off that guy but for all the tension open Ai and Microsoft are still

00:02:51.040 --> 00:02:58.159
good enough Pals to bring the chat GPT app to Windows they pressed the launch

00:02:55.640 --> 00:03:01.120
button together it was like they were practicing for the day they'll have to

00:02:59.480 --> 00:03:05.720
press the the kill switch for the nihilistic machine God they built

00:03:03.040 --> 00:03:10.480
together only for it not to work and that's what friendship is all about I

00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:15.519
learned that from Naruto Twitter AKA X is changing the meaning of the word

00:03:12.440 --> 00:03:17.599
block on the platform to mean only block

00:03:15.519 --> 00:03:21.319
engagement in a similar way to how they changed the letter X to mean Facebook

00:03:20.080 --> 00:03:26.239
meets forchan with more ads somehow when the

00:03:24.040 --> 00:03:30.959
change rolls out blocking someone will still let them see your posts but

00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:36.239
they'll be powerless to like reply or repost any of them this way blocked

00:03:33.519 --> 00:03:40.959
accounts can see if the blocker is sharing harmful or private information

00:03:38.519 --> 00:03:46.280
about them at the cost of the blocker's own privacy but have you ever been

00:03:44.040 --> 00:03:51.280
blocked it hurs but that's not the only tactically

00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:56.079
genius move by Twitter this week they also updated their privacy policy to

00:03:53.640 --> 00:04:00.200
allow third parties to train AI on your data unless you go to the settings and

00:03:57.920 --> 00:04:04.400
opt out and they changed their terms of service to require legal disputes to

00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:10.319
take place in a specific Texas Court District presided over by the supposedly

00:04:07.159 --> 00:04:13.519
honorable Reed o' Conor an investor in

00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:15.000
Tesla maybe Twitter's just grumpy the EU

00:04:13.519 --> 00:04:19.639
just said the platform doesn't make enough Revenue to fall under the digital

00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:24.400
markets act but it is subject to the Digital Services act under which Twitter

00:04:21.919 --> 00:04:29.720
is facing potential fines the EU is reportedly mulling over whether to

00:04:26.080 --> 00:04:31.759
consider Elon Musk as the provider of x

00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:36.520
meaning that revenue from his other non-publicly traded companies SpaceX

00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:42.360
neuralink xai and the boring company would be used to calculate those fines I

00:04:40.080 --> 00:04:48.199
bet he wishes he had a block button for the EU right now you know

00:04:45.400 --> 00:04:52.520
what quick look at the sponsor boot dodev which is an online self-paced

00:04:50.600 --> 00:04:57.080
course designed to teach you backend web development in Python and go while

00:04:54.639 --> 00:05:00.560
feeling like you're playing an RPG because the smartest way to learn to

00:04:58.400 --> 00:05:05.080
code is to make sure you're never bored you're going to earn XP level up unlock

00:05:02.960 --> 00:05:09.240
achievements and complete quests to get a top spot in the global leaderboard the

00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:13.120
platforms designed to get you writing a ton of code because getting your fies on

00:05:11.280 --> 00:05:18.039
the keyboard is the only way to really learn no one knows that more than boot.

00:05:15.639 --> 00:05:21.520
deev's very active Discord Community it's there to help if you ever get stuck

00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:24.680
on your coding challenges boot dodev never wants a student feeling like they

00:05:23.240 --> 00:05:28.880
spent money on something that isn't helping so they offer a 30-day no

00:05:26.600 --> 00:05:32.479
questions asked refund policy and a free demo of every course and its interactive

00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:37.440
features click the link in the description and use code TechLink to get

00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:41.680
25% off your first payment for boot dodev that's 25% off your first month or

00:05:40.120 --> 00:05:45.639
your first year depending on the subscription you choose quick look

00:05:43.440 --> 00:05:51.400
there's some bits over there I'm just kidding they're right

00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:55.960
here a federal judge in California has granted Google's request to delay an

00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:01.199
order that would have forced them to open up the Play Store to host other app

00:05:59.240 --> 00:06:05.479
stores after a court battle last year found the Play Store had become an

00:06:03.080 --> 00:06:10.160
illegal Monopoly this may give Google some time to appeal the whole ruling

00:06:08.039 --> 00:06:15.080
since they argue you can still download apps that aren't on the Play Store it's

00:06:12.919 --> 00:06:19.599
Android you can sideload as an example they say fortnite can be downloaded in

00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:24.919
three whole ways through the Galaxy store sideloading or the Epic gam store

00:06:22.840 --> 00:06:28.639
except the Epic gam store itself can only be Sid loaded and epic removed

00:06:27.240 --> 00:06:33.400
fortnite from the Galaxy store coincidentally in protest of how Samsung

00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:38.039
started blocking side loading by default on their phones so there's not only just

00:06:35.840 --> 00:06:42.840
one single option it's objectively harder than using the Play Store there's

00:06:40.960 --> 00:06:46.919
got to be a word for that that makes one think of a round-faced cartoon man with

00:06:44.880 --> 00:06:53.280
a mustache and a top hat his name's Uncle Penny bags Uncle Penny bags

00:06:49.919 --> 00:06:56.560
researchers testing 6G wireless tech

00:06:53.280 --> 00:06:59.680
have managed to transmit data at 938

00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:02.599
gigabits per second or around 117

00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:08.039
gigabytes per second while single data signals have been sent at over 1,000

00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:11.120
gbits per second this test sent multilex

00:07:08.039 --> 00:07:13.560
data across frequencies from 5 to 150

00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:18.160
GHz using a combination of digital to analog converters optically modulated

00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:22.560
signals and frequency locked lasers to create the nerdiest sentence I think

00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:27.479
I've ever spoken now of course 6G won't provide a terabit per second download

00:07:24.599 --> 00:07:33.840
speed all the time but if the ratio to average to top theoretical speed is

00:07:29.840 --> 00:07:37.160
anything like 5gs real world 6G could be

00:07:33.840 --> 00:07:39.759
13,000 times faster that may sound

00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:45.560
ridiculous to you but actually yes I agree Qualcomm has apparently cancelled

00:07:42.599 --> 00:07:50.599
the Snapdragon dev kit and refunded all orders according to Jeff gearing my

00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:54.479
internet dad gearing received an email confirming the news from Arrow the

00:07:52.520 --> 00:07:58.960
electronics company from which geerling received his devkit eventually geerling

00:07:57.280 --> 00:08:03.960
initially expected to receive the devkit in July but didn't get it until last

00:08:01.360 --> 00:08:08.199
month Garling himself called the devkit a missed opportunity so I'm sure he'll

00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:14.120
be happy to get his money back maybe he can use it to buy a baseball glove and

00:08:10.000 --> 00:08:16.560
we could I don't know maybe play catch

00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:24.400
sometime Gigabyte is launching a Thunderbolt 5 addin card that it's named

00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:27.400
Thunderbolts 5 a name that seems almost

00:08:24.400 --> 00:08:29.720
purposely designed to cause confusion on

00:08:27.400 --> 00:08:33.399
one hand it's great that users with old systems will be able to upgrade to

00:08:31.120 --> 00:08:39.680
Thunderbolt 5 but it's named like the bootleg ripoff of a more popular movie

00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:43.000
like Pulp faction or the lion queen

00:08:39.680 --> 00:08:45.040
Thunderbolts 5 is a certified addin card

00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:49.440
that has a pair of six pin PCIe power connectors and grants full Thunderbolt 5

00:08:47.160 --> 00:08:54.440
functionality including up to 80 gbits per second of bidirectional bandwidth or

00:08:51.600 --> 00:08:58.959
120 gbits per second unidirectional that's really cool but it's a bit like

00:08:56.480 --> 00:09:06.279
instead of being named Robin Batman's sidekick was called Batman's

00:09:02.839 --> 00:09:11.240
no Batman's really thinks he's going to

00:09:06.279 --> 00:09:15.240
stop crime no and moly robotics wants

00:09:11.240 --> 00:09:17.160
you to buy this personal chef Robo ARM

00:09:15.240 --> 00:09:21.519
well probably not you unless you've got to spare $115,000 burning a hole in your

00:09:19.760 --> 00:09:24.959
pocket and your spouse got mad the last time you bought a yacht without

00:09:22.839 --> 00:09:30.279
discussing it first the cooking machine has one clear flaw in that it has no

00:09:27.640 --> 00:09:34.600
means of sensing its environment it requires a human operator to prepare and

00:09:32.560 --> 00:09:38.800
position the ingredients where it expects them to be and at that point you

00:09:37.040 --> 00:09:43.880
might as well just make your own food the bot or or pay somebody to make use

00:09:41.760 --> 00:09:48.839
the machine to make your food probably hire a pretty good Chef for that price

00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:53.200
the bot also doesn't seem prepared for any kind of improvisation you'll need to

00:09:50.839 --> 00:09:58.040
pick from a pre-approved list of dishes of which there are currently 12 hope

00:09:55.880 --> 00:10:04.079
you're a big fan of spaghetti putanesca which fun fact means prostitute

00:10:02.279 --> 00:10:08.680
spaghetti what but to learn more inappropriately

00:10:06.920 --> 00:10:15.480
named past Ed dishes you'll have to come back on Monday and there will also be Tech news

00:10:12.079 --> 00:10:15.480
but yeah whatever
