00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.680
today is the 899 episode of

00:00:03.440 --> 00:00:09.639
techlinked that means absolutely nothing but we thought we mention it NVIDIA

00:00:07.279 --> 00:00:13.880
unveiled what they call the world's most powerful chip for AI earlier today even

00:00:12.440 --> 00:00:20.080
though they haven't tasted my homemade silic and crisps it's what robots crave

00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:23.279
CEO Jensen Wang held up the Blackwell

00:00:20.080 --> 00:00:24.720
gb200 chip next to an h100 the chip that

00:00:23.279 --> 00:00:30.279
catapulted nidia's value into the trillions of dollars to presumably

00:00:27.279 --> 00:00:33.399
publicly humiliate it the gb2 200 itself

00:00:30.279 --> 00:00:35.040
is four times more powerful than an h100

00:00:33.399 --> 00:00:41.440
but when it's incorporated into the new dgx nvl 72 system it can achieve 30

00:00:39.160 --> 00:00:47.160
times the inference performance at 25 times lower energy consumption enabling

00:00:44.440 --> 00:00:51.520
it to run llms with up to 27 trillion parameters more than I have in there

00:00:49.680 --> 00:00:56.840
theoretically at least since The Cutting Edge gp4 is thought to have around 1.7

00:00:54.879 --> 00:01:00.960
trillion but Jensen didn't just talk about chat Bots you may recall that

00:00:58.559 --> 00:01:05.640
NVIDIA used to be a graph company so he talked a lot about creating digital

00:01:02.800 --> 00:01:09.840
twins AKA simulating physical objects buildings and even planet Earth to

00:01:08.040 --> 00:01:14.320
detect and solve issues like climate change virtually and it's just that

00:01:12.320 --> 00:01:18.040
simple now NVIDIA's fellow Tech Giants who are all working on AI chips of their

00:01:16.240 --> 00:01:22.759
own probably have mixed feelings about NVIDIA announcing a massively upgraded

00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:27.159
successor to the most in demand Hardware of all time but what choice do they have

00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:31.000
except to buy it or fall behind so they all lined up to kiss Jensen's ring in

00:01:29.159 --> 00:01:35.840
the form of their logo is being shown on screen yeah Jensen was killing it

00:01:33.320 --> 00:01:40.479
according to Ryan Shrout I mean he sold out San Jose's sap Center to talk about

00:01:38.399 --> 00:01:43.880
an AI processor the man's at the top of his game get him a turtleneck except

00:01:42.360 --> 00:01:48.799
when he tried to explain the standard ratio of tokens to words and ended up

00:01:45.799 --> 00:01:50.960
admitting this is not going well only

00:01:48.799 --> 00:01:56.600
Human After All destroy him you see he's just a man Apple wants Google's AI on

00:01:54.119 --> 00:02:01.079
iPhones according to Mark German team Tim is seeking Gemini to power upcoming

00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:06.200
G of AI Fe features that will debut in iOS 18 this year apparently Apple also

00:02:04.039 --> 00:02:10.959
recently held talks with open AI trying to reach a similar deal Apple CEO Tim

00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:15.319
Cook already promised a big AI announcement that is expected to occur

00:02:12.760 --> 00:02:19.200
at WDC in June so the move to use another company general of AI suggests

00:02:17.720 --> 00:02:23.200
Apple's having a bit of trouble with their Homegrown Solutions a little shy

00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:27.519
it certainly doesn't help that apple is courting Google for their generative

00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:31.440
solution not long after they had to pause Gemini's ability to generate

00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:36.239
images of humans due to some wacky historical revisions this isn't to say

00:02:33.760 --> 00:02:39.319
that Apple hasn't made progress on AI just last week researchers from the

00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:43.440
company published a paper detailing advancements they've made in creating

00:02:41.360 --> 00:02:47.360
multimodal large language models which is the cool kind apparently their new

00:02:45.159 --> 00:02:51.480
method both increases performance while reducing the need for follow-up prompts

00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:55.360
to achieve the desired result I need this for my

00:02:52.920 --> 00:02:58.239
teenager dad jokes so yeah apple might not be ready for prime time but that's

00:02:56.800 --> 00:03:02.440
because they're taking it slow they've been burned they're not say locking

00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:07.599
themselves inside for 4 months to push out a chat box like X AI who just open

00:03:05.959 --> 00:03:12.080
source the base model powering said chatbot You' think Apple might try to

00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:15.879
save themselves some money and use grock but I guess that's too cringe so they're

00:03:13.720 --> 00:03:19.760
going with the AI that put minorities in we mock uniforms I had a dream like that

00:03:17.959 --> 00:03:24.599
once they could have worn them this the plot to the get out prequel and a new

00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:29.439
meta Quest headset may have leaked last week twice like all the best content on

00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:33.319
internet the most recent leak was first published on Reddit before being

00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:37.920
reposted to Twitter the Tweet contains screenshots allegedly from a meta user

00:03:35.519 --> 00:03:43.439
research Zoom meeting showing details of the meta Quest 3s but the authenticity

00:03:41.080 --> 00:03:48.239
of the images is still up for debate now last year the Verge did report that meta

00:03:45.959 --> 00:03:52.640
had plans to release a more accessible headset in 2024 so many enthusiasts have

00:03:50.959 --> 00:03:57.519
been expecting a more budget friendly version of the quest 3 referred to as

00:03:55.000 --> 00:04:03.280
the quest 3 light you can have if you're on a diet a money diet lower in cas

00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:07.439
and cash earlier last week however VR accessory seller VR Panda tweeted

00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:11.519
alleged renders of the light that are very different for the more recent zoom

00:04:09.239 --> 00:04:15.640
pictures the unit is clearly lacking any form of pass through suggesting the

00:04:13.159 --> 00:04:18.759
headset would have no AR functionality meanwhile the newer alleged leaks

00:04:17.359 --> 00:04:23.360
clearly show a funky looking front-facing camera array and possible

00:04:20.759 --> 00:04:27.840
marketing images inviting consumers to discover mixed reality while these newer

00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:31.840
leaks feature far more information they may be too detailed to be legitimate

00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:35.320
after all if I was going to risk running with meta's legal team by leaking

00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:40.360
internal documents I probably blur my face from the screenshots no matter how

00:04:37.440 --> 00:04:44.720
good I looked in a collge shirt or spelt turtleneck wow felt cute might get sued

00:04:43.039 --> 00:04:48.680
now it's time for quick bits brought to you by paperlike they make screen

00:04:47.080 --> 00:04:53.360
protectors that not only protect your iPad but also make it feel better to

00:04:50.880 --> 00:04:56.960
write and draw on it the paperlike 2.1 is manufactured in Switzerland and is

00:04:55.280 --> 00:05:01.280
designed to help you write and draw on your iPad just like how you would on

00:04:58.919 --> 00:05:06.720
paper uses their exclusive microe technology called Nano dos TM to emulate

00:05:04.759 --> 00:05:11.440
the stroke resistance of paper without sacrificing screen Clarity check out

00:05:08.680 --> 00:05:14.320
paper like at the link below well what can I say about the quick

00:05:14.440 --> 00:05:20.000
bits I don't know pretty quick it's been

00:05:17.479 --> 00:05:24.280
a big week for foldable phone leaks according to reports Samsung will be

00:05:21.960 --> 00:05:28.759
releasing both a budget and high-end version of its Galaxy zold 6 the

00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:33.319
lower-end model will allegedly cost around $800 an amount consumers might

00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:37.319
actually pay though there will be trade-offs like no S Pen support and a

00:05:35.400 --> 00:05:40.880
smaller battery than the full fat version meanwhile according to an

00:05:38.919 --> 00:05:46.639
unconfirmed Apple road map and market research company omia Apple will release

00:05:44.080 --> 00:05:50.000
a foldable iPhone in 20206 when we're all already dead while we don't know

00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:55.800
much else about the foldable iPhone I'm confident that it won't be $800 but it

00:05:52.880 --> 00:05:59.800
will be sentient and racist Qualcomm has announced the Snapdragon 8s gen 3 chip

00:05:58.479 --> 00:06:05.520
as a cheaper alternative to to the company's Flagship 8 gen 3 S means less

00:06:03.039 --> 00:06:09.440
good this time the 8S Gen 3 is seemingly meant to occupy a thin Niche between

00:06:07.919 --> 00:06:13.960
being less powerful than the current Flagship without giving up too many

00:06:11.520 --> 00:06:20.120
features it differs from the last gen Flagship 8 Gen 2 in two key ways the 8S

00:06:17.400 --> 00:06:25.120
gen 3 has a newer CPU and support on device generative AI in many ways the 8S

00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:29.160
Gen 3 is the successor to the 7 plus Gen 2 who's counting of course that was

00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:32.720
released last year you remember but you might not expect that since once again

00:06:31.000 --> 00:06:36.319
the tech world is demonstrating its complete inability to name things

00:06:34.080 --> 00:06:40.800
comprehensibly Huawei is developing an archival storage system using Magneto El

00:06:38.960 --> 00:06:45.280
electric discs and this is definitely my origin story they have 90% lower power

00:06:43.479 --> 00:06:50.440
consumption than hard disk drives how these discs work in practice is still

00:06:47.599 --> 00:06:54.639
uncertain China some sources believe the Magneto electric discs are spun down

00:06:52.720 --> 00:06:58.720
discs that power down or turn off to save energy While others claim the discs

00:06:56.800 --> 00:07:02.840
are a combination of magnetic tape and flash memory whatever the case every

00:07:01.319 --> 00:07:06.960
data hoarder in the audience is already salivating they love these updates

00:07:04.879 --> 00:07:11.919
unquestionably a worse superhero name SpaceX has a apparently $1.8 billion

00:07:10.080 --> 00:07:15.720
contract to build hundreds of spy satellites on behalf of us intelligence

00:07:14.000 --> 00:07:19.000
that's according to multiple sources for Reuters while it's currently unclear

00:07:17.560 --> 00:07:24.000
when the new satellite network will come online sources say its Earth Imaging

00:07:21.599 --> 00:07:27.879
capabilities would be used both by the US government and its military to

00:07:26.039 --> 00:07:31.440
quickly spot potential targets almost anywhere on the globe including in

00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:36.919
climate change so now they can finally track down a mysterious and dangerous

00:07:33.280 --> 00:07:39.319
fugitive known only as Waldo space VIP a

00:07:36.919 --> 00:07:43.879
tourism firm is offering a near space fine dining experience aboard space

00:07:41.440 --> 00:07:47.400
perspectives spaceship Neptune the world's only carbon neutral spaceship in

00:07:46.199 --> 00:07:52.199
the sense that it's basically just a high altitude balloon six passengers

00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:55.759
will dine at an altitude of 19 miles as they watch the sunrise over the curve of

00:07:53.919 --> 00:08:02.680
the Earth the menu was created by award-winning Chef Rasmus monk not being

00:07:58.400 --> 00:08:05.159
mistaken by act Tony Shalo there he

00:08:02.680 --> 00:08:09.680
is each passenger will be expected to pay a tepid half million for the trip

00:08:08.120 --> 00:08:15.879
which just goes to show that the cost of food has gotten crazy in space No One

00:08:12.919 --> 00:08:19.319
Can Hear You Weep it'll cost you nothing to come back on Wednesday for more crazy

00:08:17.960 --> 00:08:25.759
Tech news unless you're watching this at work in which case it could cost you your job but it' be worth it they don't

00:08:22.960 --> 00:08:25.759
know what you do
