00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,819
apple is reportedly scaling back production of the Vision Pro due to

2
00:00:04,020 --> 00:00:09,599
several unforeseen issues but I don't get how they didn't see this coming the

3
00:00:07,560 --> 00:00:14,099
headset has a transparency mode I'm Riley Murdoch this is techlinked and you

4
00:00:12,179 --> 00:00:19,920
might assume this production reduction is in response to low demand given the

5
00:00:16,619 --> 00:00:21,600
vision Pro's 3 500 price tag but that

6
00:00:19,920 --> 00:00:25,260
would presuppose a Darth of people willing to buy overpriced things they

7
00:00:23,640 --> 00:00:29,820
don't need and that describes almost everyone except me no the cause here

8
00:00:27,900 --> 00:00:34,320
according to inside sources who spoke to Financial Times is the complexity of the

9
00:00:32,579 --> 00:00:38,820
headset design leading to difficulties in manufacturing enough of the vision

10
00:00:36,180 --> 00:00:43,020
Pro's Cutting Edge micro OLED displays Cutting Edge components are a lot like

11
00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:47,460
Farms during the 1930s Dust Bowl they have disastrously poor yields we don't

12
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:51,780
often get the chance to compare Tech to Farms 100 years ago so that was exciting

13
00:00:49,379 --> 00:00:56,399
we gotta sell it all I always wanted to be a fun Apple's original Target was the

14
00:00:54,000 --> 00:01:00,899
production of a million units by 2024 but now they're likely looking at less

15
00:00:58,800 --> 00:01:04,260
than four hundred thousand which is actually a hundred thousand fewer than

16
00:01:02,460 --> 00:01:08,280
analysts projected that Apple would sell in its first year showing once and for

17
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:12,479
all that analysts do not have precious like Paula treadise from Dune part 2

18
00:01:10,320 --> 00:01:16,500
coming to theaters November 3rd 2023 made their knives chip and shatter I'm

19
00:01:14,640 --> 00:01:21,119
very excited these production issues have apparently pushed back plans for a

20
00:01:18,659 --> 00:01:25,500
budget version of The Vision Pro and by budget we obviously mean like Elon

21
00:01:23,460 --> 00:01:30,960
musk's Dorito budget I assume that he eats a lot he's healthy now die earlier

22
00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:35,700
and eat well so the Dorito joke stands Intel plans to expand path tracing

23
00:01:33,420 --> 00:01:40,320
support to integrated graphics and in short path tracing is an upgraded and

24
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:43,860
more Hardware intensive form of Ray tracing using additional data to more

25
00:01:42,180 --> 00:01:48,060
accurately simulate the physics of Light which sounds great if you want the fan

26
00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:51,180
on your high powered gaming PC to more accurately simulate a buzz saw your

27
00:01:50,100 --> 00:01:56,040
neighbors can hear it but they know you're having a good time if you'd like to experience the difference path

28
00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:01,079
tracing is already available as a mod for some older less GPU intensive games

29
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:05,280
like Quake 2 it's exactly as brown as you remember but shinier now but hold on

30
00:02:03,479 --> 00:02:08,880
Intel isn't talking about putting this Hefty new feature into big beefy

31
00:02:07,439 --> 00:02:12,900
graphics cards they're talking about putting Ray tracing's buff Big Brother

32
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:17,819
into comparatively lightweight integrated gpus Intel is presenting new

33
00:02:15,660 --> 00:02:22,440
research on hyper-efficient new methods for computing light simulation massively

34
00:02:20,220 --> 00:02:26,220
reducing GPU load perhaps soon the world's grandmas will be able to take

00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:30,060
full advantage of photorealistic real-time Graphics while playing saying

and tick tock's parent company bite dance is threatening to start publishing

40
00:02:42,959 --> 00:02:48,720
books please no believe it or not but

41
00:02:46,260 --> 00:02:53,459
many people on the internet can and do read this strange phenomenon means that

47
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:17,580
interesting opportunity for aspiring authors but it's also raised its share

48
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:22,260
of concern among the openly literate specifically that bite dance might use

49
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:25,700
tick tock to squeeze out user-driven viral book recommendations through

Twitter competitor threads launches tomorrow fortuitous timing given that

64
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:34,199
Twitter is currently even more broken and unusable than usual either it's a

65
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:40,259
complete coincidence or Zuckerberg flicked out his tongue and smelt blood

66
00:04:37,919 --> 00:04:44,340
the new site was visible for a few hours earlier today and it does essentially

67
00:04:42,180 --> 00:04:48,240
look like Twitter as imagined by Facebook beyond the logo which looks

68
00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:52,320
like a hair you found in your food the decade old GIF hosting service giphy cat

00:04:50,820 --> 00:04:56,820
see I'm trying to please both of you we'll be shutting down September 1st

after which all content will be deleted giffy cat's parent company Snapchat

00:05:10,740 --> 00:05:17,580
past few months with users experiencing failed uploads extensive downtime and

78
00:05:29,220 --> 00:05:36,720
unreadable China has restricted exports of two metals crucial in chip production

79
00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:39,539
gallium and germanium which is a big deal since it's not like you can pop

80
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:43,380
down to the Walmart and pick some germanium up they're always out of stock

81
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:47,280
they might have geraniums though I'm allergic China produces most of the

82
00:05:45,479 --> 00:05:51,479
world's supply of Gallimimus and Geronimo so the US is considering

83
00:05:49,199 --> 00:05:56,340
retaliation in the form of restricting Chinese companies access to us-based

84
00:05:54,479 --> 00:06:03,320

86
00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:11,100
what is it good for well it's it's probably an okay standing for a real war

87
00:06:07,860 --> 00:06:12,840
probably so if from the war region of

88
00:06:11,100 --> 00:06:17,100
France it's just sparkling trade dispute Google obviously wants everyone to talk

89
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:22,500
about their upcoming phones so we could show you fresh leaked photos oh they

90
00:06:19,979 --> 00:06:27,660
just leaked of the pixel 8 Pro showing its slightly tweaked rear camera design

91
00:06:24,180 --> 00:06:28,979
and a sticker with a code named Zuma uh

92
00:06:27,660 --> 00:06:34,020
seemingly confirming the phone will feature Google's next-gen tensor G3 chip

93
00:06:31,620 --> 00:06:37,620
but we could also tell you about more interesting news like the fact that the

ultra repairable designed for longevity fairphone 4 is finally available to buy

95
00:06:40,380 --> 00:06:48,060
in the US thanks to a partnership with Marina Morena a company that makes a d

96
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:54,900
Googled privacy focused Fork of Android yeah we ain't scared of the big man hack

97
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:57,600
the planet and a new bot service called

98
00:06:54,900 --> 00:07:02,580
Jolly Roger allows users to get back at telemarketers by wasting their time with

99
00:07:00,300 --> 00:07:07,199
Meandering rambling conversations like an elderly relative this sounds amazing

100
00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:11,639
in fact one of the Bots personas is an old man who just woke up from a nap who

101
00:07:09,539 --> 00:07:15,720
uses employees like telling the telemarketer they sound like a former

102
00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:20,099
High School classmate rambling on about needing coffee frequently asking them to

103
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:24,479
repeat their name and asking them to start over again

104
00:07:22,020 --> 00:07:30,120
yes the bot otherwise just allows the telemarketer to talk occasionally

105
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:32,099
interjecting and uh-huh okay or do

106
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:35,940
this all seems like good fun but just wait until the telemarketers are all Ai

107
00:07:34,319 --> 00:07:40,680
and they're just talking to each other forever in an unending Loop finally we

108
00:07:38,759 --> 00:07:46,500
will have removed all human involvement from the very worst form of human

109
00:07:43,199 --> 00:07:48,060
interaction we'll be free those guys

110
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:52,139
will just keep the economy going on their own and the best form of human

111
00:07:50,220 --> 00:07:57,319
interaction happens when you come back on Friday for more Tech news

112
00:07:54,419 --> 00:07:57,319
arguably
