00:00:00.280 --> 00:00:06.359
you know you think you know Tech news but then it goes and changes every

00:00:04.720 --> 00:00:10.480
single day honestly Tech news needs to figure itself out this is too much being

00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:15.200
your friend is really hard apple the company that has been following the AI

00:00:12.639 --> 00:00:21.720
hype train at a safe distance just quietly dropped an open-source AI model

00:00:18.680 --> 00:00:23.519
called mg which stands for multimodal

00:00:21.720 --> 00:00:27.800
large language model guided image editing bit of a mouthful it's what you

00:00:25.320 --> 00:00:32.320
thought it was as described in a newly published paper from Apple researchers

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:36.960
the image editing model can't generate images from scratch but it can for

00:00:34.760 --> 00:00:41.320
example add vegetable toppings to a picture of a pizza when asked to make it

00:00:38.840 --> 00:00:45.160
healthier or change only the part of the image specified in a prompt rather than

00:00:43.800 --> 00:00:52.039
replacing the pizza with a head of broccoli and translating sign in the background into

00:00:49.320 --> 00:00:57.320
simlish be useful in a different scenario mg is actually freely available

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

00:00:59.399 --> 00:01:05.159
as 3 3563 seconds you can calculate what

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

00:01:07.439 --> 00:01:15.920
glasses as requested it also removed half my face and melania's helmet wings

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

00:01:18.320 --> 00:01:26.360
overall for AI though OnePlus is rolling out AI features including the ability to

00:01:23.119 --> 00:01:28.040
summarize articles and phone calls with

00:01:26.360 --> 00:01:32.840
the ability to bring stuff up that you talked about so you can remember later I

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:38.439
need this badly Roblox released a realtime AI chat translator so you find

00:01:36.240 --> 00:01:44.759
out near instantaneously what players all around the world are threatening to

00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:46.159
do to your mom hey mama hey oh hey and

00:01:44.759 --> 00:01:51.000
thanks to machine learning we've successfully interpreted a scroll that

00:01:48.680 --> 00:01:54.719
was char broiled during the eruption of Mount Vesuvius and then there's the

00:01:53.000 --> 00:01:59.079
recent study from several us universities which pitted eight llm

00:01:57.000 --> 00:02:03.159
agents against each other in a series of War games where where they acted as

00:02:00.759 --> 00:02:07.240
Nations and they wound up replicating human-like arms races and only

00:02:05.520 --> 00:02:11.480
occasionally blew each other to Kingdom Come Just Like Us honestly they showed

00:02:09.239 --> 00:02:15.319
remarkable restraint with the nukes they could have used them earlier Apple's

00:02:13.080 --> 00:02:20.560
newly launched Vision Pro has continued to wobble like a freshly born fo with

00:02:18.239 --> 00:02:25.239
the major bad news of the day being Mark German's Revelation that there's no

00:02:22.800 --> 00:02:30.120
option for users to independently reset the device if they forget the password

00:02:27.959 --> 00:02:34.480
instead they'll need to either mail it to customer support or physically bring

00:02:32.519 --> 00:02:40.159
it into a store like some kind of peasant get your assistant to bring it

00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:41.840
in so that Apple can wipe and reset it

00:02:40.159 --> 00:02:46.560
part of the problem is that the device doesn't have any port that would allow

00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:51.440
users to plug it into a Mac for testing and troubleshooting Apple did create a

00:02:49.560 --> 00:02:57.360
special strap that would allow the device to be connected to a Mac via USBC

00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:59.440
but it costs $300 and was only intended

00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:02.959
for developers if civilians get their hands on on this they'll shoot their eye

00:03:00.760 --> 00:03:08.239
out because why would you ever be without access to Bluetooth or Wi-Fi

00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:13.680
what are you an animal or Worse an Android User Apple has released its

00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:17.480
first developer beta for vision OS which will probably address some of the vision

00:03:15.400 --> 00:03:22.799
Pros early software hiccups including an issue where virtual objects would

00:03:19.560 --> 00:03:25.080
disappear when pulled closer and Apple's

00:03:22.799 --> 00:03:28.920
gross looking Persona avatars no explanation necessary they're they're

00:03:26.640 --> 00:03:33.720
just wrong oddly YouTube came out this week to announce that they would in fact

00:03:31.640 --> 00:03:38.640
be developing an app for the Vision Pro at some vague point in the future after

00:03:36.280 --> 00:03:42.080
saying they wouldn't only a few short weeks ago really the only thing that's

00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:46.040
changed in the meantime is that the Apollo for Reddit developer Christian

00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:50.599
selig made an unofficial Vision Pro YouTube app called Juno which was

00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:55.720
immediately popular celic even designed to show YouTube's own ads to quote not

00:03:53.120 --> 00:04:00.000
make Google grumpy too late they are grumpy and they're making an nap the EU

00:03:58.040 --> 00:04:03.680
Council and Parliament have reached a provisional agreement on how to

00:04:01.560 --> 00:04:08.720
implement its right to repair directive for appliances and similar products most

00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:12.840
notably they will now require vendors to extend a product's warranty by an

00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:16.479
additional 12 months once it's been repaired while under its original

00:04:14.799 --> 00:04:21.120
warranty yeah this thing's been under warranty for decades I I just keep

00:04:18.519 --> 00:04:25.680
fixing it they can't stop me while EU law also requires vendors to offer users

00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:29.720
the choice of a replacement device this warranty extension is intended to

00:04:27.440 --> 00:04:33.800
encourage users to repair their goods rather than replace their broken Goods

00:04:31.759 --> 00:04:38.560
thereby keeping them out of landfills the provisional agreement also includes

00:04:35.520 --> 00:04:40.199
rules against barriers to repair such as

00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:44.680
Hardware that is purposefully difficult to replace or software that blocks the

00:04:42.680 --> 00:04:49.160
installation of secondhand and third-party Parts by independent repair

00:04:47.160 --> 00:04:53.840
shops it likewise requires that manufacturers make spare parts available

00:04:51.280 --> 00:04:57.479
for a reasonable price this is sounds like a good deal another interesting

00:04:55.840 --> 00:05:02.000
idea within the eu's right to repair directive is the creation of an online

00:04:59.680 --> 00:05:05.720
platform for matchmaking between consumers and repair services it's like

00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.880
Tinder but for people with broken washing machines now it's time for quick

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:15.080
bits brought to you by mend the service that will put your email marketing woses

00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:17.199

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

00:05:32.319 --> 00:05:37.520
below to try moose and free for 30 days

00:05:35.319 --> 00:05:42.000
you have to after all those puns quick bits are a series of five smaller

00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:46.479
stories which by logical deduction makes the three big stories you just heard

00:05:44.160 --> 00:05:52.039
slow chunks and that's math NVIDIA's recently released RTX video HDR feature

00:05:49.440 --> 00:05:57.080
which uses an NVIDIA gpus tensor cores to convert SDR video into HDR in real

00:05:54.479 --> 00:06:02.560
time can apparently be tweaked to do the same thing for games we know this this

00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:06.800
because a modder going by emuse figured it out and published it as a mod on

00:06:04.520 --> 00:06:12.039
Nexus mods possibly with a special keyboard built for split hooves cuz he's

00:06:08.960 --> 00:06:13.840
a moose you'll need Windows 11 to run it

00:06:12.039 --> 00:06:18.080
but based on early feedback it seems like the mod generates better looking

00:06:15.520 --> 00:06:23.599
visuals than Windows 11's Auto HDR feature so you'll want to enable this if

00:06:20.599 --> 00:06:26.479
you want to be so much happier a fusion

00:06:23.599 --> 00:06:30.800
reactor has now generated almost twice the amount of energy that was put into

00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:35.160
it we're getting there guys the same scientists who reported a net energy

00:06:32.599 --> 00:06:39.199
gain in 2022 have had their original findings peer-reviewed and have now

00:06:36.960 --> 00:06:44.479
released a separate paper on more recent trial runs they now claim their reactor

00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:49.000
has been able to generate 1.9 times the amount of energy it received to start

00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:52.960
the fusion reaction this is promising news but experts point out we're still

00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:57.039
decades away from commercial power plants I kind of feel bad for nuclear

00:06:55.319 --> 00:07:02.440
fishing everyone's been neglecting it since Fusion was born but Fusion can't

00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:04.639
even even walk yet tsmc manufacturers of

00:07:02.440 --> 00:07:09.280
the world's most advanced semiconductors and the world's largest semiconductor

00:07:06.560 --> 00:07:14.680
Foundry is now also the largest semiconductor maker by Revenue having

00:07:11.800 --> 00:07:18.280
finally surpassed both Intel and Samsung for the 2023 fiscal year despite

00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:22.639
difficulties getting plants up and running in the US of a tsmc is also

00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:26.440
expanding and announced that it will build a second Japanese fabrication

00:07:24.919 --> 00:07:30.120
plant which is scheduled to begin construction before the end of this year

00:07:28.280 --> 00:07:35.039
that being said n of these external plants are likely to fabricate tsmc's

00:07:32.520 --> 00:07:39.639
most advanced 2 nanometer processes which The Firm seems intent on keeping

00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:43.680
in Taiwan where it's safe and nothing bad could ever

00:07:41.280 --> 00:07:47.879
happen the US state department has announced visa restrictions could be

00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:52.919
placed on groups and individuals who misuse commercially available spyware to

00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:56.919
harass activists journalists political opponents and otherwise vulnerable

00:07:54.800 --> 00:08:01.039
people further they will also be placing these restrictions on investors and

00:07:58.800 --> 00:08:04.720
vendors whose companies enable this kind of misuse commercial spyware is

00:08:03.159 --> 00:08:08.840
typically marketed to police and government agencies for use against

00:08:06.400 --> 00:08:13.759
known criminals and foreign spies but their misuse is rampant worldwide

00:08:11.759 --> 00:08:17.919
according to google around 80% of the zero day vulnerabilities uncovered by

00:08:15.560 --> 00:08:22.560
its threat analysis group in 2023 were attributable to commercial spyware

00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:27.319
vendors so remember every time you report an exploit or install a security

00:08:24.759 --> 00:08:32.279
update you are chewing into some massive jerks bottom line great job and Amazon

00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:37.599
is testing some changes to one of its pilot programs in the US to prevent the

00:08:34.839 --> 00:08:42.159
untimely murder of the company's Flex drivers an uber-like program where

00:08:39.760 --> 00:08:46.440
independent contractors AKA random people can sign up to use their own

00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:50.480
unbranded cars to make deliveries Amazon's app will Now display a flex

00:08:48.640 --> 00:08:54.560
driver's name and photograph to customers waiting for packages likewise

00:08:52.760 --> 00:08:58.600
select drivers will receive Amazon branded magnets and lights to display on

00:08:57.040 --> 00:09:03.800
their car now all this is happening because since 2022 five Flex drivers

00:09:01.680 --> 00:09:08.320
have been shot while at least five others have had guns pulled on them by

00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:13.959
homeowners who mistook them for intruders tragically there were even at

00:09:10.680 --> 00:09:16.200
least two fatalities Amazon launched the

00:09:13.959 --> 00:09:20.560
flex program in 2015 meaning it took them almost a decade to realize sending

00:09:18.760 --> 00:09:24.640
civilians out in the dark of night in unmarked Cars full of real life Loop

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

00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:34.160
Friday for more Tech news we're going to beam knowledge right into your cranium

00:09:30.920 --> 00:09:34.160
don't worry it's very safe
