1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:06,640
obviously the big news was sony's playstation 5 event which naturally i

2
00:00:03,919 --> 00:00:10,320
didn't watch and absolutely hated everything about it the games looked bad

3
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:17,760
the the tim tim sweeney he he was ow geez

4
00:00:15,200 --> 00:00:20,160
get out of here we need a ps4 fanboys david

5
00:00:19,119 --> 00:00:22,480
david yeah

6
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:28,000
it's pretty great so sony finally took off the wraps of the physical design of

7
00:00:26,160 --> 00:00:31,359
the playstation 5 yesterday but it looks like some of that rap got stuck on

8
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:37,280
something because what the frig is this i mean i guess

9
00:00:34,160 --> 00:00:40,480
it's better than a weird-shaped v pizza

10
00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:42,000
holder dev kit but like not really just

11
00:00:40,480 --> 00:00:46,719
like microsoft's upcoming next-gen xboxes the ps5 will come in two versions

12
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:51,360
one with and one without a disk drive meaning that the lot should be four

13
00:00:48,399 --> 00:00:54,079
next-gen consoles launching this fall i'm gonna get all of them but if you

14
00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:59,199
wanna make your decision based on looks well the mean potential of the ps5 is

15
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:02,480
undoubtedly stronger like it's so strong in the force it's amazing sony's

16
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:07,040
announcement live stream also showed off a boatload of games like

17
00:01:04,559 --> 00:01:11,600
so many and while it may be hard for pc gamers to admit frankly well they all

18
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:15,200
look friggin sweet except for

19
00:01:12,799 --> 00:01:19,520
another version of gta 5. this game is approaching skyrim levels of platform

20
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:23,680
re-releases among the titles announced was the new insomniac developed

21
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:27,840
spider-man maz morales which turned out to be just an expansion for the original

22
00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:33,280
game until it turned out one more time that it's actually a standalone game hey

23
00:01:30,320 --> 00:01:37,119
confusing kina bridge of spirits is a pixar looking zelda-inspired adventure

24
00:01:35,439 --> 00:01:41,520
horizon zero's dawn sequel is called forbidden west and is absolutely the

25
00:01:38,960 --> 00:01:45,280
best freaking game ever settle down and if you're worried about all these being

26
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:47,840
console exclusives over half the games shown will be coming to pc at some point

27
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:51,759
so just hold on the night is darkest before

28
00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:56,240
the dawn which is not true but it's usually like

29
00:01:54,720 --> 00:02:00,079
kind of gradual brightening but it's like it's not i mean it's like a

30
00:01:58,079 --> 00:02:04,320
gradient sun's coming up tomorrow

31
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:07,520
let the bottom dollar come tomorrow let's stay in game mode for a little bit

32
00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:11,120
longer because the sony event wasn't the only dump of new game announcements made

33
00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:17,200
this week the ign expo saw the release of trailers for werewolf the apocalypse

34
00:02:14,959 --> 00:02:21,360
which looks as bonkers as it sounds middle hellsinger which looks like doom

35
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:25,440
mix with guitar here really that's amazing dual universe a multiplayer

36
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:30,080
mashup of space engineers and star citizen and void train a trippy survival game

37
00:02:28,879 --> 00:02:36,640
where you build and protect a multi-dimensional train in zero gravity

38
00:02:33,920 --> 00:02:40,239
yeah you know that's classic genre anyways a new star wars game called

39
00:02:38,239 --> 00:02:44,000
squadrons also announced after it was unintentionally posted on xbox.com front

40
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:48,640
page it looks like a multiplayer dogfighting game but forgive us if we're

41
00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:53,920
a little skeptical that ea isn't just gonna release a microtransaction heavy

42
00:02:51,200 --> 00:02:58,400
abomination that spits in the original rogue squadron's face

43
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:01,599
come on ea make it good do it for porkins

44
00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:06,560
moving on to the actual tech news now microsoft has said it will stop providing its facial recognition

45
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:10,159
technology to the american police forces until federal regulation can be enacted

46
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:13,440
concerning its use with the announcement microsoft joins amazon which said it

47
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:17,599
will also stop selling its facial recognition tech to police for one year

48
00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:21,120
and ibm which said it's pausing all development on facial recognition

49
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:24,640
wholesale the company's decisions are reportedly based on studies ongoing

50
00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:28,159
since 2018 which showed that facial recognition systems performed worse when

51
00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:33,360
analyzing women and people with darker skin and obviously that's

52
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:37,200
really bad now many law enforcement agencies across

53
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:40,720
the u.s still use facial recognition tech from smaller companies but let's

54
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:45,040
hope that with the tech giants pushing for regulation we'll see less potential

55
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:48,720
for abuse now it's time for the quick bits brought to you by a private

56
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:53,840

configurable encryption levels and a kill switch to keep you in control and

59
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:05,439

practice your acting and pretend you're british you can connect up to five

61
00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:12,879

65
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:29,120
apple has removed two podcast apps from the app store in china after the apps

66
00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:32,479
refused to censor their content at the request of the country's government

67
00:04:30,639 --> 00:04:36,000
meanwhile zoom has added new features that will allow the company to remove or

68
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:39,759
block specific participants if they break china's speech laws so in case you

69
00:04:38,479 --> 00:04:45,520
were worried about the trade war affecting apple and zoom's overseas business don't worry seems like they're

70
00:04:43,280 --> 00:04:49,360
doing just fine i'm so worried about apple every day

71
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:52,960
elon musk's research lab open ai has started commercial sales of its ai

72
00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:56,240
powered text generation system with reddit being one of the first customers

73
00:04:54,639 --> 00:05:01,759
hoping to use the tech to automate content moderation this would sound fine

74
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:05,440
if open ai hadn't previously warned that the tech was too dangerous to release

75
00:05:04,479 --> 00:05:10,400
i mean obviously they fixed it and ai text

76
00:05:07,680 --> 00:05:13,280
generation is completely harmless wait

77
00:05:11,199 --> 00:05:16,000
uh who wrote this zero

78
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:19,280
one google stadium is now available on

79
00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:23,840
almost every Android phone after a recent update and even you can play

80
00:05:21,840 --> 00:05:28,560
around with new touch controls as well which are probably horrible

81
00:05:26,479 --> 00:05:32,400
if you jumped in on it early enough you may have even sneaked in some leaked

82
00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:35,759
gameplay of ubisoft god and monsters which accidentally got published on the

83
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:39,600
service briefly before taking down google probably saw a big spike in

84
00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:44,160
player count yeah above more than like 10. and got all excited before they took

85
00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:48,000
the game down and everybody left again it's okay google snapchat has added

86
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:52,240
voice commands to the app so you can now ask snapchat to do things like make my

87
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:56,000
hair pink and uh we'll find a filter to do that that's pretty cool i wonder if

88
00:05:54,000 --> 00:06:00,560
you can say his snapchat make me look like i'm on tick tock no

89
00:05:59,039 --> 00:06:05,840
that's the clock app and the internet archive has ended their national emergency library program which allowed

90
00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:09,919
basically anybody to borrow copyright protected digital books with no limits

91
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:14,000
after four commercial book publishers threatened to sue it was a nice thing to

92
00:06:11,919 --> 00:06:20,520
do during the pandemic but you can't forget about capitalism for that long

93
00:06:16,319 --> 00:06:20,520
it'll come get you

94
00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:27,520
