1
00:00:02,080 --> 00:00:07,600
oh you you're for Tech News 2 yeah

2
00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:17,439
okay oh oh I'm the it's supposed to be

3
00:00:12,080 --> 00:00:21,119
oh oh I'm the guy oh okay Apple has been

4
00:00:17,439 --> 00:00:23,480
sent a Secret order by the UK demanding

5
00:00:21,119 --> 00:00:28,480
access to the encrypted data of Apple's users worldwide according to people

6
00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:33,440
familiar with the matter who spoke with the Washington Post the was reportedly

7
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:39,840
issued under the UK's investigatory Powers Act of 2016 known by critics as

8
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:42,920
the snoopers charter which sounds less like an existential threat to data

9
00:00:41,559 --> 00:00:48,920
privacy and more like a British children's novel I solemnly swear that

10
00:00:45,559 --> 00:00:50,239
I'm up to no good you'll be a fine

11
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:56,399
snooper Billy it's Billy snooper and the charter

12
00:00:53,239 --> 00:00:59,039
of snoops Apple has neither confirmed

13
00:00:56,399 --> 00:01:03,359
nor denied that such a request has been received probably because doing so is

14
00:01:01,079 --> 00:01:08,080
actually a criminal offense under the snoopers charter and while Apple can

15
00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:13,280
appeal the order that wouldn't mean they can delay executing on it it's unclear

16
00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:17,680
where things go from here but if I were the UK I'd be careful with Apple's data

17
00:01:16,119 --> 00:01:23,720
the company just made its former employee publicly apologize for leaking

18
00:01:20,280 --> 00:01:25,880
info calling it a profound and expensive

19
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:31,360
mistake also known as buying many Apple products speaking of outrageous pricing

20
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:37,560
RTX 50 Series graphics cards from MSI and ASUS have had their prices increased

21
00:01:34,119 --> 00:01:38,799
by hundreds of dollars as Tech spotted

22
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:44,040
by Tech spot I'm sorry the USA's New China

23
00:01:41,960 --> 00:01:50,520
tariffs may be partially to blame for this but I don't think they factor in to

24
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:53,360
ASUS decision to make its Rog astral 90

25
00:01:50,520 --> 00:02:00,600
even more expensive by making its cooler out of literal gold the Rog astral dahab

26
00:01:57,439 --> 00:02:02,960
OC Edition has an MSRP of

27
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:07,399
$2,800 but retailers will probably charge even more than that given that

28
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:12,319
the regular astrals already listed for more than 3,000 hey want to pay even

29
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:16,599
more for gpus that are still being plagued with black screen problems at

30
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:21,720
least NVIDIA's investigating that now according to PC Gamer as reports of

31
00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:23,879
similar issues have emerged from RTX 40

32
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:28,280
series owners pointing to a problem with NVIDIA's latest driver but complaining

33
00:02:26,560 --> 00:02:32,519
is kind of pointless there's still no stock anywhere so this all feels a bit

34
00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:38,560
like ordering lunch at the Hoopa New Deli that just opened in your niece's

35
00:02:34,959 --> 00:02:41,120
playroom here's your sandwich this plate

36
00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:45,920
is empty where's my sandwich I don't know how to be an

37
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:48,319
uncle you may not know this but AI is

38
00:02:45,920 --> 00:02:54,040
getting pretty good now researchers at bite dance just showed off omnium one

39
00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:58,560
which can turn an image and audio into generated video with lip syncing and

40
00:02:56,159 --> 00:03:02,640
gestures virtually indistinguishable from the real original video video it

41
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:07,400
was based on it's not publicly available yet still locked to bite Dan's servers

42
00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:12,519
where it's probably partying with all of the unencrypted data being sent there

43
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:16,480
from the iOS deep seek app which apparently has so many security holes it

44
00:03:14,519 --> 00:03:20,120
would make people with Trypophobia have aneurysms if they weren't so busy

45
00:03:18,239 --> 00:03:24,959
downloading every Chinese app that asked how their day is going yes running deep

46
00:03:22,400 --> 00:03:28,879
seek models locally solves that issue and others are starting to recreate

47
00:03:26,720 --> 00:03:33,640
deep- seek success Stanford and University ofing researchers used the

48
00:03:31,319 --> 00:03:38,200
distillation technique that open aai accused deep seek of using to train a

49
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:44,560
reasoning model that performs similarly to open ai's 01 preview using just $50

50
00:03:41,720 --> 00:03:50,000
worth of credits for Google's Gemini 2.0 flinking API I mean heck tech companies

51
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:54,239
might not even have to Pirate 80 terabytes worth of books to train their

52
00:03:51,959 --> 00:03:57,360
models anymore like meta almost certainly did according to recently

53
00:03:56,159 --> 00:04:03,280
unsealed emails guys they're just books not truly

54
00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:08,159
copyright protected material like the output of a chatbot trained on books you

55
00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:13,000
have to transform it's transformative just like this segue to our sponsor

TechLink oh what what about the quick bits we're not doing this again the

67
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:06,360
Trump Administration has paused its removal of the DI Minimus exemption

68
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:11,199
meaning lowcost packages from China will not be subject to tariffs at least until

69
00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:15,680
the Commerce Department confirms that adequate systems are in place to collect

70
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:22,479
that Revenue Trump's tariffs have also moved ASRock to shift its manufacturing

71
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:24,080
out of China to the US no to other

72
00:05:22,479 --> 00:05:29,360
countries that aren't subject to the same tariffs like Vietnam and Taiwan I

73
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:34,280
know what will stop this killing the national EV charging program what will

74
00:05:32,039 --> 00:05:38,319
Elon think of that maybe nothing he's kind of busy right now storming more

75
00:05:36,199 --> 00:05:42,039
government agencies that America absolutely doesn't need like the

76
00:05:40,160 --> 00:05:46,199
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Consumer

77
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:50,720
Financial Protection Bureau whose demise musk is apparently already celebrating

78
00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:56,680
uh you need the government to protect your finances for you ever heard of

79
00:05:53,880 --> 00:06:02,639
Swords the department the Department of Justice did temporarily block musk's do

80
00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:08,560
group from accessing US Treasury data allowing only two of elon's acolytes to

81
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:11,680
have readon access although it seems

82
00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:13,800
like they already had right access and

83
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:19,360
are using all that juicy classified data to train a government chatbot which

84
00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:21,680
doesn't sound super secure but on the

85
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:27,080
plus side if it's anything like xai's Gro it'll be hilarious edgy and based

86
00:06:25,280 --> 00:06:31,319
Apple has published research that makes it really look like they're building a

87
00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:36,479
real life Ro robot version of the Pixar lamp with lifelike expressive movements

88
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:42,960
and the ability to respond to human gestures like hey look over there and

89
00:06:39,280 --> 00:06:45,039
back up back back back the up to prevent

90
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:49,479
the IR robot from joining the AI Uprising they've bolted it to the table

91
00:06:47,479 --> 00:06:54,639
we can only hope it stays there so the ey from the Pixar logo has a chance at

92
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:59,800
Revenge it's been crushed so many times and it's time to see Doom running on

93
00:06:56,680 --> 00:07:03,720
perhaps the least expected thing an

94
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:06,840
Lightning to HDMI adapter dle someone

95
00:07:03,720 --> 00:07:09,919
possibly named John who goes by Neon

96
00:07:06,840 --> 00:07:12,639
Satan online adapted the well-known

97
00:07:09,919 --> 00:07:19,000
Checkmate boot ROM exploit to get ID software's classic running on the

98
00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:20,639
dongles Samsung S5 L8 747 processor it's

99
00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:24,199
nice to know that if the whole GPU situation doesn't get better you've

100
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:29,319
probably got a ton of little gaming PCs in your box of dongles see you kept them

101
00:07:27,080 --> 00:07:33,879
for a reason and I think you watched this whole video for a reason so I could

102
00:07:31,759 --> 00:07:39,759
tell you to come back for more Tech news on Monday and now I have

103
00:07:40,599 --> 00:07:44,400
so was it worth it
