1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:06,359
you know you think you know Tech news but then it goes and changes every

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:10,480
single day honestly Tech news needs to figure itself out this is too much being

3
00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:15,200
your friend is really hard apple the company that has been following the AI

4
00:00:12,639 --> 00:00:21,720
hype train at a safe distance just quietly dropped an open-source AI model

5
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:23,519
called mg which stands for multimodal

6
00:00:21,720 --> 00:00:27,800
large language model guided image editing bit of a mouthful it's what you

7
00:00:25,320 --> 00:00:32,320
thought it was as described in a newly published paper from Apple researchers

8
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:36,960
the image editing model can't generate images from scratch but it can for

9
00:00:34,760 --> 00:00:41,320
example add vegetable toppings to a picture of a pizza when asked to make it

10
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:45,160
healthier or change only the part of the image specified in a prompt rather than

11
00:00:43,800 --> 00:00:52,039
replacing the pizza with a head of broccoli and translating sign in the background into

12
00:00:49,320 --> 00:00:57,320
simlish be useful in a different scenario mg is actually freely available

13
00:00:54,800 --> 00:01:02,840
to try on hugging face so long as you don't mind a wait time currently listed

14
00:00:59,399 --> 00:01:05,159
as 3 3563 seconds you can calculate what

15
00:01:02,840 --> 00:01:10,040
that is in minutes while you wait we didn't mind but while it did remove my

16
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:15,920
glasses as requested it also removed half my face and melania's helmet wings

17
00:01:13,320 --> 00:01:20,840
so I think apples got their work cut out for them it's been a positive few days

18
00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:26,360
overall for AI though OnePlus is rolling out AI features including the ability to

19
00:01:23,119 --> 00:01:28,040
summarize articles and phone calls with

20
00:01:26,360 --> 00:01:32,840
the ability to bring stuff up that you talked about so you can remember later I

21
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:38,439
need this badly Roblox released a realtime AI chat translator so you find

22
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:44,759
out near instantaneously what players all around the world are threatening to

23
00:01:39,799 --> 00:01:46,159
do to your mom hey mama hey oh hey and

24
00:01:44,759 --> 00:01:51,000
thanks to machine learning we've successfully interpreted a scroll that

25
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:54,719
was char broiled during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius and then there's the

26
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:59,079
recent study from several us universities which pitted eight llm

27
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:03,159
agents against each other in a series of War games where where they acted as

28
00:02:00,759 --> 00:02:07,240
Nations and they wound up replicating human-like arms races and only

29
00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:11,480
occasionally blew each other to Kingdom Come Just Like Us honestly they showed

30
00:02:09,239 --> 00:02:15,319
remarkable restraint with the nukes they could have used them earlier Apple's

31
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:20,560
newly launched Vision Pro has continued to wobble like a freshly born fo with

32
00:02:18,239 --> 00:02:25,239
the major bad news of the day being Mark German's Revelation that there's no

33
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:30,120
option for users to independently reset the device if they forget the password

34
00:02:27,959 --> 00:02:34,480
instead they'll need to either mail it to customer support or physically bring

35
00:02:32,519 --> 00:02:40,159
it into a store like some kind of peasant get your assistant to bring it

36
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:41,840
in so that Apple can wipe and reset it

37
00:02:40,159 --> 00:02:46,560
part of the problem is that the device doesn't have any port that would allow

38
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:51,440
users to plug it into a Mac for testing and troubleshooting Apple did create a

39
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:57,360
special strap that would allow the device to be connected to a Mac via USBC

40
00:02:54,159 --> 00:02:59,440
but it costs $300 and was only intended

41
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:02,959
for developers if civilians get their hands on on this they'll shoot their eye

42
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:08,239
out because why would you ever be without access to Bluetooth or Wi-Fi

43
00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:13,680
what are you an animal or Worse an Android User Apple has released its

44
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:17,480
first developer beta for vision OS which will probably address some of the vision

45
00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:22,799
Pros early software hiccups including an issue where virtual objects would

46
00:03:19,560 --> 00:03:25,080
disappear when pulled closer and Apple's

47
00:03:22,799 --> 00:03:28,920
gross looking Persona avatars no explanation necessary they're they're

48
00:03:26,640 --> 00:03:33,720
just wrong oddly YouTube came out this week to announce that they would in fact

49
00:03:31,640 --> 00:03:38,640
be developing an app for the Vision Pro at some vague point in the future after

50
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:42,080
saying they wouldn't only a few short weeks ago really the only thing that's

51
00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:46,040
changed in the meantime is that the Apollo for Reddit developer Christian

52
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:50,599
selig made an unofficial Vision Pro YouTube app called Juno which was

53
00:03:48,599 --> 00:03:55,720
immediately popular celic even designed to show YouTube's own ads to quote not

54
00:03:53,120 --> 00:04:00,000
make Google grumpy too late they are grumpy and they're making an nap the EU

55
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:03,680
Council and Parliament have reached a provisional agreement on how to

56
00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:08,720
implement its right to repair directive for appliances and similar products most

57
00:04:06,159 --> 00:04:12,840
notably they will now require vendors to extend a product's warranty by an

58
00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:16,479
additional 12 months once it's been repaired while under its original

59
00:04:14,799 --> 00:04:21,120
warranty yeah this thing's been under warranty for decades I I just keep

60
00:04:18,519 --> 00:04:25,680
fixing it they can't stop me while EU law also requires vendors to offer users

61
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:29,720
the choice of a replacement device this warranty extension is intended to

62
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:33,800
encourage users to repair their goods rather than replace their broken Goods

63
00:04:31,759 --> 00:04:38,560
thereby keeping them out of landfills the provisional agreement also includes

64
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:40,199
rules against barriers to repair such as

65
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:44,680
Hardware that is purposefully difficult to replace or software that blocks the

66
00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:49,160
installation of secondhand and third-party Parts by independent repair

67
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:53,840
shops it likewise requires that manufacturers make spare parts available

68
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:57,479
for a reasonable price this is sounds like a good deal another interesting

69
00:04:55,840 --> 00:05:02,000
idea within the eu's right to repair directive is the creation of an online

70
00:04:59,680 --> 00:05:05,720
platform for matchmaking between consumers and repair services it's like

71
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,880
Tinder but for people with broken washing machines now it's time for quick

72
00:05:07,520 --> 00:05:15,080
bits brought to you by mend the service that will put your email marketing woses

73
00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:17,199

Analytical tools what are you waiting for get a move on and follow the link

78
00:05:32,319 --> 00:05:37,520
below to try moose and free for 30 days

79
00:05:35,319 --> 00:05:42,000
you have to after all those puns quick bits are a series of five smaller

80
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:46,479
stories which by logical deduction makes the three big stories you just heard

81
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:52,039
slow chunks and that's math NVIDIA's recently released RTX video HDR feature

82
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:57,080
which uses an NVIDIA gpus tensor cores to convert SDR video into HDR in real

83
00:05:54,479 --> 00:06:02,560
time can apparently be tweaked to do the same thing for games we know this this

84
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:06,800
because a modder going by emuse figured it out and published it as a mod on

85
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:12,039
Nexus mods possibly with a special keyboard built for split hooves cuz he's

86
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:13,840
a moose you'll need Windows 11 to run it

87
00:06:12,039 --> 00:06:18,080
but based on early feedback it seems like the mod generates better looking

88
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:23,599
visuals than Windows 11's Auto HDR feature so you'll want to enable this if

89
00:06:20,599 --> 00:06:26,479
you want to be so much happier a fusion

90
00:06:23,599 --> 00:06:30,800
reactor has now generated almost twice the amount of energy that was put into

91
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:35,160
it we're getting there guys the same scientists who reported a net energy

92
00:06:32,599 --> 00:06:39,199
gain in 2022 have had their original findings peer-reviewed and have now

93
00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:44,479
released a separate paper on more recent trial runs they now claim their reactor

94
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:49,000
has been able to generate 1.9 times the amount of energy it received to start

95
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:52,960
the fusion reaction this is promising news but experts point out we're still

96
00:06:51,240 --> 00:06:57,039
decades away from commercial power plants I kind of feel bad for nuclear

97
00:06:55,319 --> 00:07:02,440
fishing everyone's been neglecting it since Fusion was born but Fusion can't

98
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:04,639
even even walk yet tsmc manufacturers of

99
00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:09,280
the world's most advanced semiconductors and the world's largest semiconductor

100
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:14,680
Foundry is now also the largest semiconductor maker by Revenue having

101
00:07:11,800 --> 00:07:18,280
finally surpassed both Intel and Samsung for the 2023 fiscal year despite

102
00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:22,639
difficulties getting plants up and running in the US of a tsmc is also

103
00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:26,440
expanding and announced that it will build a second Japanese fabrication

104
00:07:24,919 --> 00:07:30,120
plant which is scheduled to begin construction before the end of this year

105
00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:35,039
that being said n of these external plants are likely to fabricate tsmc's

106
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:39,639
most advanced 2 nanometer processes which The Firm seems intent on keeping

107
00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:43,680
in Taiwan where it's safe and nothing bad could ever

108
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:47,879
happen the US state department has announced visa restrictions could be

109
00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:52,919
placed on groups and individuals who misuse commercially available spyware to

110
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:56,919
harass activists journalists political opponents and otherwise vulnerable

111
00:07:54,800 --> 00:08:01,039
people further they will also be placing these restrictions on investors and

112
00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:04,720
vendors whose companies enable this kind of misuse commercial spyware is

113
00:08:03,159 --> 00:08:08,840
typically marketed to police and government agencies for use against

114
00:08:06,400 --> 00:08:13,759
known criminals and foreign spies but their misuse is rampant worldwide

115
00:08:11,759 --> 00:08:17,919
according to google around 80% of the zero day vulnerabilities uncovered by

116
00:08:15,560 --> 00:08:22,560
its threat analysis group in 2023 were attributable to commercial spyware

117
00:08:20,199 --> 00:08:27,319
vendors so remember every time you report an exploit or install a security

118
00:08:24,759 --> 00:08:32,279
update you are chewing into some massive jerks bottom line great job and Amazon

119
00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:37,599
is testing some changes to one of its pilot programs in the US to prevent the

120
00:08:34,839 --> 00:08:42,159
untimely murder of the company's Flex drivers an uber-like program where

121
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:46,440
independent contractors AKA random people can sign up to use their own

122
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:50,480
unbranded cars to make deliveries Amazon's app will Now display a flex

123
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:54,560
driver's name and photograph to customers waiting for packages likewise

124
00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:58,600
select drivers will receive Amazon branded magnets and lights to display on

125
00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:03,800
their car now all this is happening because since 2022 five Flex drivers

126
00:09:01,680 --> 00:09:08,320
have been shot while at least five others have had guns pulled on them by

127
00:09:06,320 --> 00:09:13,959
homeowners who mistook them for intruders tragically there were even at

128
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:16,200
least two fatalities Amazon launched the

129
00:09:13,959 --> 00:09:20,560
flex program in 2015 meaning it took them almost a decade to realize sending

130
00:09:18,760 --> 00:09:24,640
civilians out in the dark of night in unmarked Cars full of real life Loop

131
00:09:22,519 --> 00:09:28,120
boxes wasn't the smartest idea but it would be smart of you to come back on

132
00:09:26,440 --> 00:09:34,160
Friday for more Tech news we're going to beam knowledge right into your cranium

133
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:34,160
don't worry it's very safe
