00:00:00.520 --> 00:00:06.440
hey thanks for waiting a whole week for fresh Tech news while I was away I

00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:10.519
thought I had another week before I would be assaulted by wacky CES News

00:00:08.840 --> 00:00:16.600
about sentient toilets or something but apparently that's starting now so strap

00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:18.760
in LG has unveiled a bendable 45in OLED

00:00:16.600 --> 00:00:25.480
monitor at the Apparently unprecedented resolution of 5120 by 2160 in their

00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:32.320
press release unveiling the monitor LG says it's set to be unveiled at CES next

00:00:29.279 --> 00:00:36.360
week where it has somehow already won

00:00:32.320 --> 00:00:39.000
three CES 2025 Innovation Awards I was

00:00:36.360 --> 00:00:43.440
expecting CES News to be more 3D printed sandwiches and less time paradoxes but

00:00:41.840 --> 00:00:47.840
sure let's roll with it turns out those CES Innovation Award winners were

00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:52.719
actually announced in November that's how I found out about Zeiss getting an

00:00:49.840 --> 00:00:57.120
award for their holographic transparent camera which is already been pre-ordered

00:00:54.879 --> 00:01:00.120
by Wonder Woman to go with her invisible jet

00:01:00.399 --> 00:01:06.760
an order that was placed in 1942 no stop

00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:11.880
it the camera is apparently sensors built into the frame of a window

00:01:09.119 --> 00:01:17.119
reconstructing an image from the ambient light that hits it which sounds just

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:23.000
Bonkers but so does LG announcing a microwave with a built-in 27in display

00:01:20.640 --> 00:01:27.479
so you can easily check on your food maybe keep gaming while you wait for

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:33.320
your Hot Pockets or if it's anything like LG's actual TVs get great product

00:01:30.960 --> 00:01:40.079
recommendations served directly to your kitchen hot food and hot deals no

00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:46.920
destroy it AMD was also expected to unveil their next gen gpus at CES which

00:01:43.240 --> 00:01:49.320
were named the RX 8000 series at some

00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:55.039
point but multiple leaks now indicate that instead of an RX 8800 AMD will be

00:01:52.560 --> 00:02:00.600
announcing the RX 970 skipping a generation number and

00:01:58.119 --> 00:02:04.240
copying NVIDIA's naming convention AMD pulled a similar stunt with their CPU

00:02:02.439 --> 00:02:09.440
names apparently Having learned brand strategy from the people behind popular

00:02:06.039 --> 00:02:13.519
movie franchises transmorphers and magic

00:02:09.440 --> 00:02:18.080
wizard School starring her

00:02:13.519 --> 00:02:20.080
grinder fck bench life claims the RX 970

00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:24.720
will actually launch at the end of January fingers crossed that NVIDIA and

00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:29.440
AMD's plans to stockpile graphics cards before those tariffs hit pays off Intel

00:02:27.400 --> 00:02:33.879
a resurgent player in the desktop graphics card space is expected to

00:02:31.360 --> 00:02:39.680
unveil another gaming focused card but apparently they're also prepping a

00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:42.440
battle mage powered Ark Pro GPU with 24

00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:48.319
GB of memory which is a lot but hopefully not enough to remember hermany

00:02:45.200 --> 00:02:51.720
grinder the top student at chogborts

00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:51.720
sorry that didn't

00:02:52.879 --> 00:03:02.519
help you're a special boy with magic

00:02:58.040 --> 00:03:04.560
powers sorry I'm so okay no stop open AI

00:03:02.519 --> 00:03:10.319
took the mask off on Friday and announced plans to transition into a

00:03:06.799 --> 00:03:13.239
mostly for-profit organization with a

00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:18.519
bit of nonprofit on the side previously the capped profit ARM of open AI was

00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:23.280
controlled by the nonprofit ARM which was controlled by a board of directors

00:03:21.040 --> 00:03:27.920
who didn't care about profit at all as long as robots took all our jobs but now

00:03:25.959 --> 00:03:32.720
the for-profit ARM will become a Delaware Public benefit Corporation

00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:38.400
required to balance the interests of shareholders and the public and the

00:03:35.760 --> 00:03:44.599
nonprofit will have shares in that company I mean it's so much more simple

00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:46.720
for for the purposes of of more money

00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:50.760
this is exactly what Elon Musk was trying to prevent when he filed an

00:03:48.720 --> 00:03:56.280
injunction against openi in early December a filing that just received

00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:59.959
public support from a nonprofit ooh

00:03:56.280 --> 00:04:02.239
irony maybe called incode who even had

00:03:59.959 --> 00:04:07.040
one of the Godfathers of AI Jeffrey Hinton on board I'd never heard of

00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:13.640
encode before but apparently they're run by young people concerned about where AI

00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:16.000
is heading while Elon is an old guy just

00:04:13.640 --> 00:04:22.040
mad that this is happening after he left this is not right to do without me

00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:26.400
don't worry you won't miss out as long as you check out our sponsor War Thunder

00:04:24.440 --> 00:04:31.320

00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:40.160
1920s to the fighter jets and main battle tanks of today with incredibly

00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:44.479
detailed Vehicles realistic graphics and authentic sound effects like that one

00:04:43.080 --> 00:04:48.600
you'll feel like you're really at the Helm of the most powerful war machines

00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:52.560
of our time if they were operated by a controller or a mouse and keyboard which

00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:57.120
maybe they were you don't know you weren't there but you can feel like you

00:04:54.720 --> 00:05:02.880

00:05:06.280 --> 00:05:14.199
decorator today quick bits they're here and then

00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:20.600
they're gone like like most things YouTube is

00:05:18.120 --> 00:05:25.120
testing a new Floating Action button in the Android app kind of like Google's

00:05:22.960 --> 00:05:30.080
I'm feeling lucky button it just starts playing a random video to distract you

00:05:27.280 --> 00:05:34.600
from those pesky thoughts they actually started testing this a year ago with a

00:05:31.919 --> 00:05:40.840
simple black play button but in the more recent test spotted by 95 Google the

00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:43.800
button now says play something play

00:05:40.840 --> 00:05:48.120
something anything also I love how 9 to5 Google's example of the something is a

00:05:46.520 --> 00:05:53.479
video by nothing is this what you want iOS 18

00:05:51.520 --> 00:05:58.280
appears to enable a feature called enhanced visual search by default which

00:05:56.479 --> 00:06:03.560
lets you identify landmarks in your photos but requires sending some photo

00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:08.960
data to Apple as pointed out by app developer Jeff Johnson Apple says they

00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:14.199
do this privately but it's a weird move for a privacy focused company like apple

00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:18.479
to just decide that you're probably okay with apple seeing your photos in this

00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:23.280
scenario I mean that what happens on your iPhone stays there billboard was

00:06:21.000 --> 00:06:28.880
all the way back in 2019 things have changed you can't just walk around not

00:06:26.280 --> 00:06:34.479
knowing that that's the arc to Triumph oh it's like a look like a big

00:06:31.160 --> 00:06:37.280
door embarrassing NVIDIA's VP of

00:06:34.479 --> 00:06:43.039
Robotics Deepu tala told the financial times this week that the chat GPT moment

00:06:40.360 --> 00:06:47.360
for robotics is just around the corner but NVIDIA would say that a gold Rush's

00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:53.479
imminent when they're the one selling shovels and shovel accessories oh yeah

00:06:50.680 --> 00:06:53.479
that puppy needs a

00:06:53.840 --> 00:07:00.319
scope but they might not just be advertising their services there have

00:06:58.080 --> 00:07:04.039
been many advances in robotic recently researchers at Stanford and John's

00:07:02.120 --> 00:07:08.960
Hopkins just demonstrated surgical robots learning to complete tasks simply

00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:12.919
by watching videos for the first time the training data was mostly Tik Tock

00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:16.919
ASMR I mean turns out robots get the tingles too and meta has figured out

00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:20.960
they should probably use some of their immense wealth to do something about the

00:07:19.240 --> 00:07:26.800
software update that has bricked some users Quest 2 3 and 3s headsets for

00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:30.879
weeks while they initially said owners would simply have to buy a new device if

00:07:28.800 --> 00:07:36.080
theirs was out of warranty this week the tech giant indicated some users might be

00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:40.599
considered for a free replacement regardless of warranty status I mean

00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:45.360
what else can we expect from the company that thinks it's a good idea to flood

00:07:43.240 --> 00:07:49.960
Facebook and Instagram with AI bot accounts so you can have even more fake

00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:53.479
friends you never see in real life speaking of which you can see me again

00:07:51.680 --> 00:07:57.560
on Wednesday and I'll give you more Tech news it'll be New Year's Day so maybe we

00:07:56.000 --> 00:08:01.199
can turn over a new Leaf in our friendship which is real
