WEBVTT

00:00:00.060 --> 00:00:06.180
keep your eyes on me and we'll make it through okay now

00:00:03.419 --> 00:00:10.440
hold on to your quick bits yesterday Google made the shocking yet completely

00:00:08.460 --> 00:00:14.580
unsurprising announcement that is cloud gaming service servius stadia it doesn't

00:00:13.259 --> 00:00:20.760
matter it's not a real person anymore stadia will be shut down on January 18th

00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:22.740
2023 with all purchases of games and

00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:26.939
stadia harbor to be refunded thank goodness they held me your money in

00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:31.019
escrow for this eventuality I would say that everyone saw this coming but that's

00:00:28.859 --> 00:00:35.340
not true developers working on stadia games including some exclusives learned

00:00:33.540 --> 00:00:41.040
that stadia was heading to the infamous Google Cemetery at the same time as the

00:00:38.880 --> 00:00:44.040
public did making this tweet from the official stadia account all the more

00:00:42.719 --> 00:00:48.180
spooky in the wake of the announcement many are

00:00:46.079 --> 00:00:54.120
discussing Google's obvious missteps which ensured it never mattered and

00:00:51.000 --> 00:00:56.039
never had a chance harsh but accurate

00:00:54.120 --> 00:01:00.960
never mind the choice to run everything on a proprietary Linux distro

00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:02.879
consistently cut funding or make users

00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:08.159
buy their games instead of using a Netflix model that was obvious

00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:11.880
Google also passed on an opportunity to have an exclusive follow-up to death

00:01:10.140 --> 00:01:16.680
stranding from Kojima Productions although I'm obviously not sure if that

00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:18.780
would help stadia or hurt Kojima more so

00:01:16.680 --> 00:01:22.380
maybe it's better that it just didn't especially because stadia exclusives

00:01:20.700 --> 00:01:27.799
will now need to be important to other platforms or lost forever to the sands

00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:27.799
of time

00:01:28.860 --> 00:01:36.079
moisture in the cloud like tears and Rain stadia didn't even make it past the

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:40.799
death date prophesized by Jason Scott at stadiaaccountdown.com you hate to see

00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:44.460
things in before their time but that's negative latency baby

00:01:44.460 --> 00:01:50.040
open AI developer of the dolly 2 AI

00:01:47.520 --> 00:01:54.360
powered text to image generator has removed the Tool's waitlist allowing

00:01:52.140 --> 00:01:57.899
everyone to sign up for Access which would be a bigger deal if similar image

00:01:56.159 --> 00:02:03.060
generators like mid-journey and stable diffusion hadn't been publicly available

00:01:59.880 --> 00:02:05.820
for some time I'm desensitized to AI art

00:02:03.060 --> 00:02:10.619
now it's like constantly tripping on LSD half cat half spaceship riding on a

00:02:08.099 --> 00:02:15.660
unicorn made of cheese normal day but proving that the field is still

00:02:12.900 --> 00:02:20.760
advancing at Breakneck speed meta just unveiled make a video an AI model that

00:02:18.599 --> 00:02:24.560
can generate five second video clips based on text prompts or existing images

00:02:22.920 --> 00:02:29.700
and videos this has the will not be free this has

00:02:27.840 --> 00:02:34.980
the worst name of all of them though the AI seems to really like putting human

00:02:32.099 --> 00:02:39.060
hands on decidedly unhuman subjects but at the pace things are going they'll

00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:44.640
have solved that problem and put human hands on a real cat in about a month

00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:49.140
that forever it does not work well they hate it and just because Intel finally

00:02:47.280 --> 00:02:54.840
announced the release date for The Arc a770 GPU doesn't mean they're just gonna

00:02:52.200 --> 00:03:00.060
chill until October 12th Ryan Shrout and Tom Peterson are back with more Blues

00:02:57.360 --> 00:03:07.800
Clues AKA benchmarks and specs for the 329 Arc a770 and the arc a750 which they

00:03:05.340 --> 00:03:13.920
revealed will also launch the same day starting at 289 dollars just 289 dollars

00:03:12.900 --> 00:03:20.760
and what are you getting for that money no one knows Intel claims a750 is 50

00:03:17.700 --> 00:03:23.400
percent better than NVIDIA's RTX 3060

00:03:20.760 --> 00:03:27.300
that launched a decade ago in terms of price to Performance but again these are

00:03:25.800 --> 00:03:30.720
deep blue sea numbers we're talking about here I don't want to report on

00:03:29.040 --> 00:03:35.640
this again until they actually launch I'll be trapped in limbo forever but it

00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:40.680
had to do today because Acer also announced their first consumer desktop

00:03:37.260 --> 00:03:44.159
graphics card the Predator by Frost Arc

00:03:40.680 --> 00:03:46.680
a770 come at me Disney it's got a blower

00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:52.019
style fan in the middle next to a much larger fan that looks normal

00:03:49.920 --> 00:03:55.500
it's it's weird and different and frankly that's what a GPU what the GPU

00:03:53.760 --> 00:03:59.519
space needs right now am I right don't want to go full Portland but just a

00:03:57.540 --> 00:04:03.180
little bit I just now it's time for quick bits brought to

00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:07.319

00:04:35.699 --> 00:04:42.720
you've been holding on to your quick bits good now release them they can't

00:04:40.740 --> 00:04:47.759
help you anymore anyone confused about why logitech's gcloud gaming handheld

00:04:45.060 --> 00:04:53.520
exists should probably strap in because apparently Razer will unveil a similar

00:04:50.100 --> 00:04:57.600
device at Razer con which is is the a

00:04:53.520 --> 00:04:59.340
bad name on October 15th The Edge 5G was

00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:04.680
announced in collaboration with Verizon as the world's first 5G mobile gaming

00:05:02.280 --> 00:05:09.479
handheld which appropriately sounds like it might have a bit of an edge over a

00:05:06.960 --> 00:05:12.660
logitech's device but it still brings up questions

00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:15.780
why would you want this when the steam deck exists

00:05:13.919 --> 00:05:20.340
the power of the pause might be heading to a whole another stadia situation here

00:05:17.699 --> 00:05:25.199
you hate to see it but I will strap in razor

00:05:22.440 --> 00:05:29.160
razor there is speaking of D Brown has pulled the launch of their kill switch

00:05:26.460 --> 00:05:33.900
steam deck case after reporters at The Verge notified them that the case's

00:05:31.320 --> 00:05:39.539
magnetic kickstand was slowing down their steam decks fans

00:05:36.419 --> 00:05:41.639
wow turns out that earlier models of the

00:05:39.539 --> 00:05:46.979
deck were built with a fan that is affected by the kickstands magnets how

00:05:44.520 --> 00:05:51.720
do they work while others are not so dbrand is redesigning the kickstand to

00:05:49.080 --> 00:05:56.220
not use Magnus and will send a free replacement kickstand and case to every

00:05:54.000 --> 00:06:01.139
kill switch customer as far as I can tell they announced all this without

00:05:57.960 --> 00:06:02.520
writing a single edgy insult so double

00:06:01.139 --> 00:06:08.460
props to them they're going to be a razor con actor Bruce Willis is the first

00:06:06.300 --> 00:06:14.780
Hollywood actor to sell the rights to use his image on likeness to a deep fig

00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:16.979
firm called get this deep cake

00:06:14.780 --> 00:06:21.180
this makes a lot of sense for Willis who recently retired from acting due to due

00:06:18.900 --> 00:06:25.620
to his Aphasia diagnosis a terrible disease the technology could enable him

00:06:23.100 --> 00:06:29.039
to continue acting for prestigious Productions like a commercial for a

00:06:27.720 --> 00:06:33.840
Russian Telecom maybe he could be the next Darth Vader

00:06:31.319 --> 00:06:37.860
they love de-aging Google parent company alphabet is testing its wing drone

00:06:35.880 --> 00:06:41.639
delivery service in Australia right now and they need it and things have been

00:06:39.960 --> 00:06:45.360
going pretty well unless you count yesterday's incident involving a food

00:06:43.259 --> 00:06:50.520
delivery drone colliding with power lines in Queensland isn't that King's

00:06:47.819 --> 00:06:54.419
land now just joking and knocking out power to over 2 000 residents which

00:06:52.919 --> 00:07:00.539
probably sucked for those people never mind the guy that ordered the food

00:06:57.000 --> 00:07:02.400
where is it all you can do is listen for

00:07:00.539 --> 00:07:06.780
the buzz and by the time this episode goes up Tesla will have hosted its AI

00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:11.100
Day event following heavy hints from Elon who I feel like we shouldn't say

00:07:09.060 --> 00:07:15.060
his name anymore about the company's humanoid Tesla bot I would say it's too

00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:19.919
bad we didn't get to see what they're going to show off but it's hard to take anything musk says seriously after he

00:07:18.419 --> 00:07:23.759
tweeted that the Cyber truck will be able to serve briefly as a boat

00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:29.099
that describes every car Elon

00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:34.740
the float until they don't at least we know the cybertron's Windows

00:07:31.020 --> 00:07:36.539
break easily yeah yeah oh got him it's

00:07:34.740 --> 00:07:41.280
time for this video to sink back down down under the tech news ocean uh but

00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:44.450
come back on Monday for more I gotta go down with this foreign
