That's That's what you're going to uh uh here you go. Google search was ruled a monopoly last August. So this week, the tech giant and the US Justice Department are back in court to figure out a way to make this right that doesn't involve Google paying the DOJ $20 billion a year to use Google as their default search provider. It's like the only card Google has. Uh, no. The DOJ wants Google to sell Chrome and Open AAI is interested. According to head of product for ChachiBT, Nick Turley, OpenAI's ambitions to build their own web browser are wellknown. But what the company really seems to be interested in is access to Google's search API since, as Turley put it, OpenAI's had significant quality issues with their existing search partner referred to as provider number one in the courtroom because you always want to avoid saying Bing's name out loud for obvious. Did I hear my name? Ah, jeez. Nope. Nobody said anything. You want to search something? Oh man. Turley said OpenAI had asked Google if they could license their search API, but Google declined. So, even if OpenAI wasn't allowed to buy Chrome, having that license sure would be nice to restore competition, something Google is going to have to get into the practice of allowing. During the trial, it came out that Google was paying Samsung an enormous sum to pre-install Gemini on Galaxy devices while blocking Motorola from making a similar deal with AI search engine Perplexity. In other antitrust news, the FTC just sued Uber for making it too difficult to cancel subscriptions in what is hopefully a signal that the Trump administration will continue to rein in big tech. Or maybe the ghost of former FDC chair Lena Khan is haunting the halls and suing corporations is the only way to let her spirit rest. We can't know. Intel has begun rolling out 200s Boost, a new BIOS profile that will let gamers overclock compatible Core Ultra 200S processors without losing warranty coverage in what some are calling an okay apology for making its Aerolake chips suck at gaming so hard. I didn't buy them, but I accept. The new profile enables significant bumps in fabric, die-to-d memory frequencies for the 285K, 265K NKF, and 245K NKF on select motherboards with select memory kits. YouTuber Derbower has already got some updated benchmarks of the 285K on his channel, showing that while it's still not going to touch the Ryzen 9 9950 X3D, enabling the 200S boost profile can boost gaming performance by anywhere from 4% to 19%. Pretty good. It's just too bad that Intel had to cut 20% of their staff, which is like 20,000 jobs to do it. I know connecting those two pieces of news doesn't make any sense, but I'm just telling you what happened. Okay, stop yelling at me. An AI service called Cluey that promotes cheating on everything by having AI essentially provide you with dialogue options and information in real time has gone viral thanks to a cluelessly dumb ad in which the app's creator unsuccessfully tries to date a woman a few years older than him. He's 21 apparently, but they act like he's a 13-year-old sneaking into a scary movie. The the vibe is off. But I guess I should expect this from a guy whose previous product was also about cheating on coding interviews and who equates using spellch check and Google with going on a date. Uh, which apparently is not a real use case for the product according to him. What is this ad? The guy's tweet here reveals that his real goal seems to be to cheat attention and go viral by apparently pedalling vaporware because yeah, hands-on impressions of Cluey indicate that it kind of sucks. Uh, as weird as it is to say, NVIDIA's local AI powered Project G Assist might actually not suck. The company just announced that gamers can now build custom plugins to enable actually useful voice commands with some examples being telling a plugin to change your system lighting, adjust fan speed, check if a streamer is live, very useful, and who knows what else. NVIDIA has posted full instructions on GitHub. Just don't write a plugin to help you develop exam questions. The State Bar of California did that, angering a ton of lawyers, which doesn't seem like a smart thing to do. Maybe they got advice from Culie. I In other AI news, Grock got vision and multilingual abilities for its real-time voice mode. And Character.AI unveiled Avatar FX, which can generate long form voice and video from an input image. I think long form here refers to like a minute long or something. It can't do real time chatbot interactions yet. So, don't worry. We have a few more years left of being able to speak to Gen Alpha and then they'll be gone. I'm going to tell them about our sponsor, Boot.dev. The smartest way to learn back-end web development from start to finish. Why is it the smartest? Because it makes sure that you're never bored. It's self-paced, feels like a captivating RPG game, and gets you writing a ton of code.

And if you ever get stuck, you can ask the active Discord community or Boots, a powerful bear wizard. No, I'm not going to explain that. They've got a free demo of every course and a 30-day no questions asked refund policy. Plus, you can use the code techlink to get 25% off your first payment for boot.dev. So, click the link in the description to choose your subscription and get 25% off your first month or first year. You never asked for the quick bits, but you're going to get them anyway. You know why? Because earlier this week, the US Commerce Department imposed tariffs on solar materials imported from Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Thailand of up to 3,521%. Now, obviously, that's crazy. So, this morning they brought it down to 3,43.96%. Okay, we're reasonable people. Indeed, President Trump said yesterday that his tariffs on China will come down substantially, but won't be zero because companies are starting to feel the squeeze. I mean, China's ban on rare earth materials exports has caused Tesla to delay the launch of its Optimus humanoid robot. No. Also, yeah, that's totally why it's delayed, not because it wasn't ready, which is why they had to have humans control them. Humans are who are now going to be out of a job since the launch is delayed. Great. The European Union has fined Apple the equivalent of $570 million and Meta $228 million for breaching the Digital Markets Act. In Apple's case, by restricting user access to better deals outside of the App Store and in Meta's case, by providing insufficient choices for privacy-minded users. Epic Games issued a press release about this because they're basically a news outlet that solely reports on news that has almost nothing to do with them as long as Apple is losing in some way. I don't do that. Emails released in the other antitrust trial that's going on right now, Metas, have revealed that in 2022, in order to try and boost Facebook's popularity, Mark Zuckerberg had a bright idea. Delete everyone's entire friends list. Maybe removing all of their social connections on the platform, which they spend a lot of time building, would somehow keep them on the platform. Is that would people like that? I wouldn't know. I'm not people. That was suck. That was Zuck talking by the way. Hello. And MIT researchers have created a meta material, which means a material made by combining a bunch of microscopic structures that could be used to build, among other things, stretchy computer processors. It could also lead to stretchy computer enclosures like laptops. And if that's the case, I'm not sure why we'd stop there. I mean, stretchy everything. Someone get the investors in on this. If we're going to bet the whole economy on things like crypto and AI, we might as well get some floppy iPads out of the deal. I Now, here's a deal for you. You come back on Friday and I provide tech news. That is if I found the time to watch all three initial episodes of Andor. If I haven't, then I'll be doing that."}
