00:00:00.359 --> 00:00:08.360
Tech news H you better believe we got some of that we've got all of it in fact

00:00:06.640 --> 00:00:13.000
please take some on your way out we're running out of space Apple has been the

00:00:10.840 --> 00:00:19.480
most valuable publicly traded company since 2011 when it usurped the oil giant

00:00:16.520 --> 00:00:24.519
Exxon Mobile but copertino might be in for some usurping themselves by their

00:00:22.000 --> 00:00:29.560
longtime rival and overall nerdier company Microsoft after Chasing Apple's

00:00:27.240 --> 00:00:34.760
lead for over a decade the tech Giants Market cap crossed the $3 trillion Mark

00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:40.840
twice this month and right now it's sitting at 3.01 trillion compared to

00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:43.800
Apple's poultry 2.9 trillion the week

00:00:40.840 --> 00:00:48.480
that SAA nadela celebrates his 10year anniversary as CEO of Microsoft and

00:00:46.879 --> 00:00:52.600
that's apparently for a good reason the Milestone is being treated by the tech

00:00:50.120 --> 00:00:57.160
media as an opportunity to ask how nadela was able to stay winning a big

00:00:55.600 --> 00:01:01.280
part of the answer is continual investment into Cloud infrastructure as

00:00:59.160 --> 00:01:05.400
that Tech was taking off and having quick enough feet to sidestep the type

00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:11.720
of scandals and controversies that plagued Microsoft's Tech Giant Brethren

00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:14.960
Cambridge analytica I've never heard of

00:01:11.720 --> 00:01:17.640
her Microsoft has obviously invested

00:01:14.960 --> 00:01:21.759
heavily in AI while Apple has taken things a lot slower but could Apple

00:01:20.159 --> 00:01:26.119
catch up later this year when they've said they'll reveal some big AI news I

00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:30.200
don't know Microsoft has a pretty big lead and they continue to push into the

00:01:28.320 --> 00:01:34.759
AI sphere just today today they announced an AI infused partnership with

00:01:32.560 --> 00:01:39.720
semaphore a News website founded by Veterans of BuzzFeed news the New York

00:01:36.600 --> 00:01:40.840
Times and Bloomberg Media Group in 2022

00:01:39.720 --> 00:01:47.399
which kind of makes sense because I've never heard of it the partnership will see semaphor journalists using AI tools

00:01:45.360 --> 00:01:52.280
to search news sources across multiple languages but still write the Articles

00:01:50.240 --> 00:01:56.680
themselves which sounds like a much better use of Microsoft AI than a poll

00:01:54.640 --> 00:02:02.039
in the sidebar asking readers to vote on the woman in the story's cause of death

00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:08.640
see Sach wasn't involved with that at all the demand for RTX 490 gpus in China

00:02:06.079 --> 00:02:14.200
is driving up prices in other Asian countries despite NVIDIA releasing the

00:02:10.959 --> 00:02:16.519
Chinese exclusive 490d variant to comply

00:02:14.200 --> 00:02:22.440
with us export regulations a Black Market has grown for the original full

00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:26.480
fat nond D it probably tastes like the

00:02:22.440 --> 00:02:28.560
delicious milk I love it's gotten so bad

00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:32.560
that retailers in places like Taiwan Singapore South Korea and Vietnam have

00:02:30.920 --> 00:02:36.519
stopped selling the graphics cards individually and are putting them inside

00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:42.560
of pre-built systems in an attempt to stop scalpers but someone in Taipei

00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:45.840
allegedly still made a profit spending

00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:48.720
$91,000 on 20 prebuilds and selling

00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:53.680
their gpus to China's AI segment where the 490s are being used as alternatives

00:02:51.000 --> 00:03:00.200
to NVIDIA's more expensive and also more heavily regulated a100 and h100 cards

00:02:57.800 --> 00:03:04.319
allegedly the 490 Black Market is so efficient Chinese AI startups can

00:03:02.239 --> 00:03:09.360
reportedly receive product in just 3 to 4 days and that makes sense a consumer

00:03:07.200 --> 00:03:13.239
card like the 490 is much easier to get a hold of than one of NVIDIA's

00:03:10.720 --> 00:03:17.560
Enterprise AI cards especially with how serious the US has been about

00:03:15.080 --> 00:03:22.959
controlling the export their export just last week the United States blocked a

00:03:19.480 --> 00:03:25.239
shipment of 24 A1 100s to the Australian

00:03:22.959 --> 00:03:30.680
subsidiary of a Chinese company out of fear the cards would end up in China now

00:03:28.239 --> 00:03:35.879
the Aussies have to Jerry r their own AI using chicken Salt fairy bread and

00:03:32.959 --> 00:03:41.400
huntsman spiders ah it's the same as my Grandma's old recipe

00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:46.159
for viite the Vision Pro has now been

00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:51.720
thoroughly analyzed by the revered knowledge keepers of our time redditors

00:03:49.319 --> 00:03:55.319
in a post one redditor was disappointed by the small field of view and

00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:59.640
Reflections in the lenses which are both apparently normal according to Apple a

00:03:57.519 --> 00:04:04.159
true being of culture decided to comment M on that same post lamenting the lack

00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:09.159
of support for the thinking man stimulation 3D porn now for some reason

00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:12.959
that comment was deleted but not before we learned in the replies that you can

00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:16.560
disable one of your hands in the vision proos accessibility settings let me know

00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:20.600
in the comments if that makes sense to you cuz I I don't get it at least for

00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:25.880
the field of view issue there may be a solution using the headset without its

00:04:23.400 --> 00:04:34.600
light seal According to some users this increases the fov by 15° at the expense

00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:37.400
of making Tim Cook cry that is not right

00:04:34.600 --> 00:04:42.280
no that's especially cruel when the poor man is still dealing with part one of I

00:04:39.919 --> 00:04:46.680
fixit's Vision Pro tear down where they detail the tech that makes the weird

00:04:44.520 --> 00:04:51.800
eyesight feature on the outside of the headset work not only is it apparently a

00:04:49.320 --> 00:04:56.120
repair nightmare but removing a certain component will squish together the eyes

00:04:53.880 --> 00:04:59.840
on the external display and after seeing that I may never sleep again but it's

00:04:58.320 --> 00:05:04.960
not all bad news for the video Vision Pro the platform May Inspire devs to

00:05:02.520 --> 00:05:09.759
make more interesting AR apps that could even benefit meta's Quest headsets

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:14.560
imagine watching Formula 1 races from every angle or even motivating yourself

00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:18.319
to finally vacuum your disgusting floor just to get all the imaginary gold coins

00:05:16.560 --> 00:05:22.680
down there you won't ever see it cuz you'll live inside the headset but at

00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:26.600
least you know then that it's okay now it's time for quick bits brought to you

00:05:24.080 --> 00:05:30.319
by vessie It's Raining It's Pouring but your day doesn't have to be boring

00:05:28.319 --> 00:05:35.560
thanks to vessie Footwear they claim their shoes are 100% waterproof thanks

00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:40.479
to their diatex technology even the most torrential downpours don't stand a

00:05:37.800 --> 00:05:44.800
chance your shoes will stop it from raining don't quote me on that the

00:05:42.600 --> 00:05:48.000
Chelsea and stormburst shoes are fantastic companions for the winter

00:05:46.440 --> 00:05:52.240
weather with the comfort of a sneaker and the warmth and higher top of a boot

00:05:50.440 --> 00:05:56.120
and when the skies clear up their weekend and everyday classic sneakers

00:05:54.080 --> 00:06:00.039
are great for just wearing about and if it does start raining you'll be

00:05:57.520 --> 00:06:04.520
protected head over to bessie. comom / TechLink and get 15% off your first

00:06:02.080 --> 00:06:08.759
purchase with code TechLink quick bits are notoriously hard to quantify but

00:06:06.520 --> 00:06:13.599
thankfully we've come up with a formula unfortunately I can't tell you what it

00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:16.479
is Samsung's head of customer experience

00:06:13.599 --> 00:06:22.120
Patrick chome has claimed there's no such thing as a real picture to defend

00:06:19.840 --> 00:06:26.800
the Samsung Galaxy's generative edit feature in an interview with tech radar

00:06:24.479 --> 00:06:31.560
CH states that since you're reproducing what you're seeing with sensors quote it

00:06:29.199 --> 00:06:37.560
does doesn't mean anything end quote and if you used AI to even optimize the zoom

00:06:34.599 --> 00:06:42.280
quote there is no real picture full stop sh also compared the generative edit

00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:48.759
feature to adding filters to photos on Instagram if I'm following here that

00:06:45.000 --> 00:06:50.440
means my mom may be an AI but we're

00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:55.160
still working through what he said honestly wouldn't be that surprising a

00:06:52.199 --> 00:07:01.520
first ofit kind AI Heist cost a multinational company $25 million using

00:06:58.520 --> 00:07:04.080
sophisticated deep fake technology yeah

00:07:01.520 --> 00:07:08.240
it's pretty wild after sending a fishing message to the company's Hong Kong

00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:13.000
Branch scammers were able to convince a worker to give up the funds by jumping

00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:18.120
on a video conference call featuring the company's Chief Financial Officer and

00:07:14.960 --> 00:07:20.400
other employees except the only real

00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:25.080
person in that call was the victim who then transferred large sums of money to

00:07:22.759 --> 00:07:29.440
five different local bank accounts the scam was uncovered a week later likely

00:07:27.919 --> 00:07:34.199
when the CFO never showed up to the the employees's house after promising a

00:07:31.440 --> 00:07:40.840
rousing game of catch bamboo lab has removed their A1 3D

00:07:38.240 --> 00:07:46.280
printer from sale and issued a recall due to issues with the heatbed cables

00:07:43.280 --> 00:07:48.240
apparently less than 0.1% of printers

00:07:46.280 --> 00:07:53.360
sold have the problem but the company doesn't know why the problem exists

00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:56.960
which isn't a great situation to be in bamboo lab is recommending people stop

00:07:55.440 --> 00:08:00.759
using their printers until they can figure out the cause they tried to

00:07:58.720 --> 00:08:05.360
consult an expert detective but unfortunately Mr Monk as played by Tony

00:08:03.159 --> 00:08:10.599
shaloo has solved his last case in the TV movie Mr Monk's last case and he's

00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:16.080
tired of telling people he's retired Japan's slim moonlander is still

00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:20.479
technically alive but might not be for much longer the spacecraft solar panels

00:08:18.599 --> 00:08:25.800
caught some rays during the tail end of the lunar day but it must now survive a

00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:34.240
full lunar night which lasts for 14 Earth days and features temperatures as

00:08:28.039 --> 00:08:36.519
low as negative 208° F or 130° C but

00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:41.279
even if slim can't survive it may live on in spirit its Precision Landing

00:08:39.120 --> 00:08:45.440
technology will be used in future lunar missions hopefully that will be some

00:08:43.000 --> 00:08:50.839
comfort to slim as it spends 2 weeks rattling its little jimmies in the moon

00:08:47.640 --> 00:08:54.080
cold and a YouTuber has managed to build

00:08:50.839 --> 00:08:56.720
a functioning 16-bit CPU inside

00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:59.720
Microsoft Excel complete with its own memory output and a custom Assembly

00:08:58.800 --> 00:09:04.480
Language computer Enthusiast inkbox posted a

00:09:01.839 --> 00:09:10.959
video detailing how they made this Excel processor with a blazing fast clock

00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:13.920
speed of 3 Hertz 128 kiloby of RAM and a

00:09:10.959 --> 00:09:20.160
16 color output display it's a gamer's dream inkbox of CPU also doesn't use any

00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:27.360
Visual Basic scripts or plugins it is pure XL the way nature intended now

00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:28.720
inkbox can get any desk job he wants and

00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:35.000
you should want to come back on Wednesday for more Tech news we don't

00:09:30.680 --> 00:09:35.000
know what we'll report on yet but oh

00:09:35.560 --> 00:09:39.680
boy it's going to be good
