00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:07.120
you came for Tech news so that's what I'll give

00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:11.320
you if if you also want to hear my Sci-Fi series pits just let me know you

00:00:09.440 --> 00:00:17.279
know at any point Microsoft has reiterated that it will not budge on

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:19.279
including TPM 2.0 or The Trusted

00:00:17.279 --> 00:00:24.039
platform module as a hardware requirement for Windows 11 with senior

00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:28.279
product manager Steven hosing writing in the company's it pro blog that the

00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:32.680
security feature is non-negotiable unless you're a business

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:37.600
business and opt for the iot Enterprise ltsc version of Windows 11 which doesn't

00:00:35.440 --> 00:00:41.440
require it or if you're following guides from Microsoft themselves as well as

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:46.239
others that tell you how to install Windows 11 on an unsupported PC but

00:00:43.719 --> 00:00:50.680
other than that it's off the table the Double Down comes as Microsoft is

00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:55.800
ramping up pressure on Windows 10 users to upgrade which for many means

00:00:53.280 --> 00:01:00.640
upgrading their Hardware too because of the phantom menace requirement different

00:00:58.199 --> 00:01:06.000
TPM the whole issue is Complicated by the fact that the real requirement

00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:11.400
keeping some users from upgrading isn't even TPM 2.0 there are a couple

00:01:08.759 --> 00:01:15.080
generations of Intel and AMD processors that have that feature but aren't

00:01:13.560 --> 00:01:20.560
included in the list of supported processors for Windows 11 so what does

00:01:17.759 --> 00:01:26.400
Microsoft actually want your PC to have to let you upgrade your OS the right

00:01:24.439 --> 00:01:32.119
Vibe they actually don't even want you to upgrade they just like popping ads up

00:01:28.240 --> 00:01:34.479
in your face ah got him you're sick

00:01:32.119 --> 00:01:40.360
Intel finally unveiled their second gen Arc gpus yesterday after busting them

00:01:37.240 --> 00:01:42.320
out of freshly fired CEO Pat gelsinger's

00:01:40.360 --> 00:01:47.840
office he was fired because he wouldn't let the company launch them that's not

00:01:46.360 --> 00:01:52.920
that's not true I'm just looking for a reason that makes sense lonus Tech tips

00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:55.960
has a full breakdown but the tldr is the

00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:59.399
ark b580 will launch for 250 bucks on

00:01:55.960 --> 00:02:02.680
December 13th with the b570 launching at

00:01:59.399 --> 00:02:04.920
2 20 bucks on January 16th in a number

00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:10.520
of colors and flavors thanks to Intel having more board Partners on board this

00:02:07.880 --> 00:02:14.519
time despite having a power draw on the lower side with the limited edition

00:02:12.640 --> 00:02:21.080
reference design only sporting a single 8 pin connector Intel says the b580 is

00:02:18.040 --> 00:02:24.680
24% faster than the previous gen Arc

00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:27.560
a750 a higher tier board and delivers

00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:33.440
64% better rate tracing performance than an RTX 460 and you might say

00:02:31.200 --> 00:02:38.080
I don't care about R tracing well Indiana Jones and the great circle just

00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:42.599
became the first mainstream game to require Hardware Ray tracing support you

00:02:40.720 --> 00:02:46.920
want to get with the times or have an atypically swashbuckling archaeologist

00:02:44.760 --> 00:02:50.680
say that you belong in a museum that would not feel good alongside

00:02:48.680 --> 00:02:57.080
architecture improvements Intel's upgraded their XE super sampling Tech to

00:02:53.920 --> 00:03:00.920
X SS2 which now has frame generation

00:02:57.080 --> 00:03:03.280
like NVIDIA's dlss 3 and AMD's FSR 3

00:03:00.920 --> 00:03:07.280
along with a low latency feature Intel is leaning hard into its aggressive

00:03:05.480 --> 00:03:12.920
pricing here saying the battle mage cards have 25% better performance per

00:03:09.799 --> 00:03:14.879
dollar than NVIDIA and AMD's 60 tier

00:03:12.920 --> 00:03:19.440
cards and they've got about a month to convince Gamers that's the case before

00:03:17.159 --> 00:03:24.959
team red and green start dropping their own nextg gpus NVIDIA is heavily

00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:32.760
expected to announce the RTX 50 Series at CES and AMD's own recently released

00:03:28.360 --> 00:03:35.760
code references both the RX 8800 and RX

00:03:32.760 --> 00:03:37.120
8600 look at me you're going to wait for

00:03:35.760 --> 00:03:42.920
the reviews this time before shooting your mouth off right you can do it stay

00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:47.680
strong open AI has announced 12 days of open AI which means that starting

00:03:45.480 --> 00:03:54.120
tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. Pacific it'll host a live stream every day for 12 days

00:03:50.879 --> 00:03:56.720
to launch or demo new AI features a

00:03:54.120 --> 00:04:01.680
holiday tradition of tech Bros since days of your or so Chachi B tells me but

00:03:59.480 --> 00:04:06.000
gole gole seized this opportunity to give Sam Alman a taste of his own

00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:11.400
preempt your competitor's AI announcements medicine the tech Giants

00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:13.560
suddenly opened access to their vo video

00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:18.680
generator through their vertex AI platform along with their imagin 3 image

00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:24.919
generator but more importantly they unveiled Genie 2 a foundation World

00:04:22.120 --> 00:04:30.039
model that one-ups the world Labs demo for Monday's episode and generates 3D

00:04:27.320 --> 00:04:37.000
game worlds you can run around in or or sail around in for up to a minute before

00:04:33.520 --> 00:04:40.080
reality starts to decohere Deep Mind

00:04:37.000 --> 00:04:42.320
says that genie2 generates game content

00:04:40.080 --> 00:04:46.120
that's plausible which I was going to say is the bare minimum for games but

00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:51.639
then I remembered Kingdom Hearts exists unlike decart's AI generated Minecraft

00:04:48.960 --> 00:04:57.759
simulation Genie 2 can actually make it so the world looks the same or at least

00:04:54.720 --> 00:04:59.320
similar when you turn around imagine and

00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:04.199
can generate gameplay in multiple perspec Ives like first person third

00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:08.479
person and isometric a few demos even showed characters interacting with

00:05:05.919 --> 00:05:13.919
objects in ways that stretch the meaning of the word plausible but again death

00:05:11.240 --> 00:05:19.000
stranding shipped so Genie 2 can render game protagonists as well as NPCs and

00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:22.560
lead to some fun situations like this one where the player just stood in a

00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:27.680
garden and didn't move at all and eventually a ghost appears huh if that's

00:05:25.880 --> 00:05:32.759
not creepy enough the googlers took their previously announced generalist AI

00:05:30.080 --> 00:05:38.360
agents capable of operating in any game and drop them into these nonsensical

00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:41.759
dream worlds presumably as a kind of

00:05:38.360 --> 00:05:45.800
prank hey wait a sec is this

00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:47.800
AI yeah just like you just like me a

00:05:45.800 --> 00:05:52.880
that's funny oh Deep Mind also showed their New Gen cast AI weather

00:05:50.080 --> 00:05:57.240
forecasting system outperforming the current best in-class model but that's

00:05:54.880 --> 00:06:01.680
like actually practical stuff it's there what's even more practical is our

space travel experiment has torn the fabric of reality and there's portals

00:06:50.199 --> 00:06:56.840
everywhere also humans have evolved Tales again they they came back I'm

00:06:54.840 --> 00:07:00.080
working on it but first quick bits in response to the US tightening export

00:06:59.080 --> 00:07:05.919
restriction even more China said it would ban Rare

00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:10.800
Minerals crucial to Tech production from being exported to the US who said it's

00:07:08.440 --> 00:07:16.080
just now realizing how much rejection can hurt the ban minerals include

00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:21.199
gallium and geranium of which China is the biggest producer on the plus side if

00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:25.360
stuff isn't being exported to the US then it can't be subject to tariffs so

00:07:23.919 --> 00:07:32.080
at least American companies won't have to pay extra for it win-win the FBI and

00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:33.879
cesa America's cyber Defense Agency have

00:07:32.080 --> 00:07:38.560
warned the Nation about the dangers of using unencrypted messaging such as text

00:07:36.599 --> 00:07:43.440
messages sent between iPhones and Android phones it's a bit of a strange

00:07:40.639 --> 00:07:47.560
warning coming from the FBI which has historically opposed encryption which

00:07:45.879 --> 00:07:52.800
makes it harder to get into people's phones for national security purposes

00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:57.560
the thing is it looks like Chinese hackers still have deep access to

00:07:55.440 --> 00:08:02.919
American communication networks after using a government back door to break in

00:08:00.919 --> 00:08:07.319
so please make sure to use encrypted messaging apps until we can get these

00:08:04.840 --> 00:08:11.720
hackers out of here and then we can go back to unencrypted so the right

00:08:09.479 --> 00:08:17.479
government can spy on you properly Ubisoft has announced it's shutting down

00:08:14.120 --> 00:08:19.759
its free-to-play shooter X defiant less

00:08:17.479 --> 00:08:24.759
than a year after launching and less than 2 months after denying reports that

00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:29.039
it was going to do this very thing while The Game season 3 content will still

00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:33.800
launch with servers remaining live until June 2025 the news also means the

00:08:31.639 --> 00:08:39.880
shutdown of three different Production Studios and 277 employees being laid off

00:08:37.959 --> 00:08:44.560
my heart goes out to those developers one of whom I really hope brought up the

00:08:42.360 --> 00:08:50.800
fact that that name sounds like a Call of Duty parody game they made up for a b

00:08:47.080 --> 00:08:52.760
movie to avoid licensing fees X defiant

00:08:50.800 --> 00:08:57.920
it sounds like a translation error and the FTC won't let scummy companies be

00:08:55.519 --> 00:09:03.920
proposing orders yesterday that would ban location data firms ventel and

00:09:01.079 --> 00:09:08.320
mobile wallala from selling location data which can reveal details about

00:09:06.040 --> 00:09:12.959
consumers visits to medical clinics and places of worship sensitive areas the

00:09:11.160 --> 00:09:18.000
ban would prevent these companies which are some of the most prominent of their

00:09:15.200 --> 00:09:21.839
kind from conducting their main business providing location information to

00:09:19.640 --> 00:09:27.440
advertisers as well as government agencies like the IRS daa and FBI man

00:09:26.320 --> 00:09:32.480
they're not going to be able to arrest anyone soon thankfully the propos is

00:09:29.800 --> 00:09:37.000
subject to public comment for 30 days before it can be made final so go let

00:09:34.680 --> 00:09:40.800
the FTC know if you really want weird companies to still be able to dox you

00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:44.839
and let me know if you want more Tech news by coming back here on Friday for

00:09:42.800 --> 00:09:50.839
more I think I'm going to take a page from Tim Cook and keep doing this until

00:09:47.560 --> 00:09:53.640
the voice in my head says it's time it

00:09:50.839 --> 00:09:57.279
hasn't said it yet it says all kinds of other fun things though
