00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:07.080
hi welcome back to TechLink don't ask NVIDIA has announced

00:00:04.680 --> 00:00:12.160
that it plans to launch its new NVIDIA app out of beta before the end of this

00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:16.800
year now users with some combination of the NVIDIA control panel the GeForce

00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:21.480
experience app and the RTX experience app already on their PC may be

00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:26.519
experiencing some apprehension but the new app is actually intended to unify

00:00:24.279 --> 00:00:31.759
the features of all three apps and in the darkness bind them into a single

00:00:29.400 --> 00:00:36.760
streamline experience we've had three yes what about fourth

00:00:33.760 --> 00:00:39.239
up NVIDIA has also added a handful of

00:00:36.760 --> 00:00:44.520
new features such as a toggle for g-sync multim monitor support for RTX HDR and

00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:49.039
Driver roll back back heck yeah the app allows users to sort their games the way

00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:54.320
they want and the new UI allows users to customize the font and colors in case

00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:58.079
neon green on black just doesn't jive with your particular brand of Dyslexia

00:00:56.359 --> 00:01:04.119
but NVIDIA is not the only one bringing cool new features out of beta AMD the

00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:06.320
Perpetual Ash to NVIDIA's Gary launched

00:01:04.119 --> 00:01:10.880
fluid motion frames 2 alongside the rollout of its

00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:12.680
24.9 adrenaline driver AF mf2

00:01:10.880 --> 00:01:17.159
demonstrates substantial performance gains and fixes the first version's

00:01:14.759 --> 00:01:21.280
notorious input lag issue it also comes with improved geometric downscaling just

00:01:19.720 --> 00:01:24.680
in case you're the kind of psychopath who likes watching movies in a super

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:29.360
tiny window rather than their native size I need to make room for Subway

00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:33.439
Surfers a pair of students at Harvard have released a paper on an experiment

00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:38.439
they conducted where they ran facial recognition software through a pair of

00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:42.960
meta smart glasses the glasses would then automatically cross reference that

00:01:40.399 --> 00:01:47.280
face with social media and compile a profile on the person including name

00:01:45.479 --> 00:01:51.759
biographical information personal associations and even sometimes

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:56.399
addresses the students filmed themselves approaching strangers in public places

00:01:53.719 --> 00:02:00.399
greeting them by name and claiming to have met them previously through a

00:01:57.880 --> 00:02:04.880
shared event or organization while the system was occasionally

00:02:01.960 --> 00:02:09.280
inaccurate this is a clear demonstration of how such technology could be used for

00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:12.599
harm by a malicious actor just think about the last time somebody who knew

00:02:10.679 --> 00:02:15.599
your name occupation and birth date stopped you on the street literally

00:02:14.319 --> 00:02:19.760
never happened to me and I'm vaguely famous I'd probably assume I was the

00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:24.200
jerich who forgot my old acquaintance and their snazzy glasses how could I

00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:28.879
forget those the student group has committed to not releasing the tool that

00:02:26.680 --> 00:02:33.840
they showed everyone that they had but meta won't even commit to not training

00:02:31.040 --> 00:02:37.599
their AI using smart glasses photos a feature that can notably be set off

00:02:35.560 --> 00:02:43.000
accidentally using common keywords such as look meta much like a giant

00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:47.400
irradiated squid Kaiju seems determined to use every tendril of its organization

00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:51.599
to violate our privacy in new and horrible ways previously known only to

00:02:49.440 --> 00:02:56.599
science fiction and ELD horror but Mark looks great doesn't he who cares if he

00:02:53.800 --> 00:03:00.480
made a deal with cthulu Microsoft is rolling out voice and vision

00:02:58.440 --> 00:03:05.239
capabilities for its AI assistant co-pilot as well as enhanced reasoning

00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:08.840
which would be a big deal if it wasn't for the fact that most Microsoft AI

00:03:06.959 --> 00:03:13.480
Innovations are actually just open AI innovations that were already rolled out

00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:15.200
several weeks ago it's been 28 years but

00:03:13.480 --> 00:03:19.720
despite the odds Microsoft is still trying to make clippy happen with an

00:03:17.519 --> 00:03:23.360
assistant that has a friendly human-like voice that dynamically responds to the

00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:29.200
user's emotions and makes interjections like cool and huh to give the impression

00:03:27.400 --> 00:03:32.920
of active listening it's as good a reminder as to try to call up your

00:03:31.280 --> 00:03:37.040
actual friends and make plans this weekend you may be lonely but please

00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:41.120
don't be making small talk with lobotomized Cortana lonely if it was

00:03:39.519 --> 00:03:47.000
Sydney it'd be a whole another thing but she's gone according to Microsoft AI SAR

00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:49.400
Mustafa sulan we're just a year away

00:03:47.000 --> 00:03:53.439
from everpresent highly capable AI assistants but he kind of has to make

00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:58.319
big claims like that given how crowded the field of AI development has gotten

00:03:55.519 --> 00:04:03.040
with deep pocketed Tech Giants Gemini live Google's own in enhanced voice mode

00:04:01.000 --> 00:04:09.079
is now freely available to all Android users while NVIDIA just announced its

00:04:05.200 --> 00:04:10.640
own GPT 4 class open- Source AI model

00:04:09.079 --> 00:04:14.720
with weights already available and training code coming soon I didn't see

00:04:12.760 --> 00:04:18.440
that coming honestly at this point Taylor Swift could surprise drop a new

00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:22.040
AI assistant next week and it' only be a little weird it'd be more weird if I

00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:26.280
didn't tell you about our sponsor private internet access their VPN masks

00:04:24.560 --> 00:04:29.440
the location of your internet connection using an encrypted tunnel preventing

00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:35.360
third parties from accessing your browser housing habits because tunnels make them

00:04:32.240 --> 00:04:37.240
claustrophobic hot tip even better the

00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:41.639
tunnel lets you access content from around the world or local content when

00:04:39.479 --> 00:04:46.039
you're traveling Pia's vast server Network spans over 91 countries and a

00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:50.360
single subscription allows unlimited connections PA is available on basically

00:04:48.479 --> 00:04:56.240
any device and the company never records or stores user data check out Pia lg. g/

00:04:59.039 --> 00:05:04.880
guarantee I'm just realizing the the potential

00:05:08.840 --> 00:05:16.280
here quick bits uh I'll tell you eventually Indie app developer Christian

00:05:13.960 --> 00:05:21.120
selig best known for the now defunct Apollo app for Reddit has now had Juno

00:05:19.360 --> 00:05:26.160
his thirdparty YouTube app for The Vision Pro shut down most likely at

00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:31.000
Google's request while selig probably saw this coming the closure means that

00:05:28.160 --> 00:05:35.919
there is no longer a YouTube app for the platform YouTube claimed that a native

00:05:33.240 --> 00:05:39.319
app for Vision Pro was on its road map back in February but that the company

00:05:37.520 --> 00:05:43.919
was focused on ensuring a great experience in Safari an experience that

00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:48.840
continued to suck for several months afterwards what are the odds that we get

00:05:45.520 --> 00:05:51.520
an official YouTube app on meta Orion

00:05:48.840 --> 00:05:57.120
before we get one on the Vision Pro Mark looks really good I can't

00:05:55.199 --> 00:06:00.319
stress this enough I cannot tell you how good his curls look after that cthulu

00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:06.800
deal AMD's new flagship x870 and x870

00:06:04.280 --> 00:06:12.599
motherboards are now available and that's fine the x870 non could be

00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:17.720
considered a downgrade for some use cases since it has the same single

00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:20.759
Promontory 21 die configuration as last

00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:23.080
gen's lower tier b650 mobos and on top

00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:28.240
of that some PCIe Lanes will need to be dedicated to accommodating USB 4 which

00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:34.560
is great provided you can take advantage of USB 4 more objectively bad is that

00:06:30.960 --> 00:06:37.199
many x870 motherboards do support Wi-Fi

00:06:34.560 --> 00:06:43.080
7 but don't have the hardware to go above Wi-Fi 6E speeds because once again

00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:49.120
tech specs don't actually mean anything and are purely Vibes based Reddit has

00:06:46.199 --> 00:06:52.840
changed its settings to stop users from protesting last year when the API

00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:56.879
changes were announced redditors protested by turning subreddits private

00:06:54.919 --> 00:07:00.199
or only showing not safe for work content right it was a bit of a

00:06:57.960 --> 00:07:03.960
Minefield for a second there Now setting a subreddit to private or changing a

00:07:02.039 --> 00:07:10.440
safe for work subreddit to not safe for work requires reddits permission VP of

00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:15.759
community Laura nestler told The Verge that the change has been in motion since

00:07:12.440 --> 00:07:17.759
at least 2021 but it was accelerated by

00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:23.080
last year's events the official Reddit post says protests are still allowed

00:07:21.080 --> 00:07:30.120
just not ones that actually impact the site you know protests Reddit can ignore

00:07:27.840 --> 00:07:35.080
you have the right to protest in your own basement it's the only King joke

00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:40.440
I've made in this episode and California has updated its consumer Privacy Act to

00:07:37.759 --> 00:07:45.000
protect individuals neural data preventing Tech firms from collecting

00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:48.639
sharing or selling info collected from your nervous system a similar law

00:07:46.960 --> 00:07:53.000
protecting brain data was passed in Colorado earlier this year unfortunately

00:07:51.159 --> 00:07:57.360
this is necessary because the dark future is approaching and someone has to

00:07:55.520 --> 00:08:00.120
stop the corpos from trying to download your Consciousness while you scroll a

00:07:58.919 --> 00:08:07.080
brain dance I never played cyberpunk so I don't know what I just said but it felt

00:08:04.639 --> 00:08:11.039
cool and okay fine I'll tell you why I'm dressed this way it's Riley week on Flo

00:08:09.080 --> 00:08:15.879
plane so I guess that means that I've dressed like a king I'm the king of flow

00:08:13.400 --> 00:08:19.039
plane I got to make videos like however I want so watch these

00:08:19.199 --> 00:08:27.440
clips got to get the blood up the core issue with Star Wars today as I see it

00:08:24.680 --> 00:08:32.680
is that it's struggling to change itself how is your Tim Cook impression so good

00:08:29.599 --> 00:08:34.919
I don't know the ship is not moving

00:08:32.680 --> 00:08:39.560
shoot the ship what does being a minimalist actually mean I'm going to be

00:08:37.159 --> 00:08:44.279
so loud I'm going to be so disruptive Bing Bong how is Riley's

00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:52.800
mom you keep my mom's name out you so

00:08:51.600 --> 00:08:59.200
subscribe to Flo plane if you want to see those and come back on Friday for more Tech news and also on Friday my 20

00:08:57.560 --> 00:09:05.560
minute rant about Star Wars on float play as I've mentioned be there Chum

00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:05.560
still don't know what that means
