00:00:02.080 --> 00:00:07.600
oh you you're for Tech News 2 yeah

00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:17.439
okay oh oh I'm the it's supposed to be

00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:21.119
oh oh I'm the guy oh okay Apple has been

00:00:17.439 --> 00:00:23.480
sent a Secret order by the UK demanding

00:00:21.119 --> 00:00:28.480
access to the encrypted data of Apple's users worldwide according to people

00:00:26.720 --> 00:00:33.440
familiar with the matter who spoke with the Washington Post the was reportedly

00:00:30.920 --> 00:00:39.840
issued under the UK's investigatory Powers Act of 2016 known by critics as

00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:42.920
the snoopers charter which sounds less like an existential threat to data

00:00:41.559 --> 00:00:48.920
privacy and more like a British children's novel I solemnly swear that

00:00:45.559 --> 00:00:50.239
I'm up to no good you'll be a fine

00:00:48.920 --> 00:00:56.399
snooper Billy it's Billy snooper and the charter

00:00:53.239 --> 00:00:59.039
of snoops Apple has neither confirmed

00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:03.359
nor denied that such a request has been received probably because doing so is

00:01:01.079 --> 00:01:08.080
actually a criminal offense under the snoopers charter and while Apple can

00:01:05.920 --> 00:01:13.280
appeal the order that wouldn't mean they can delay executing on it it's unclear

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

00:01:16.119 --> 00:01:23.720
the company just made its former employee publicly apologize for leaking

00:01:20.280 --> 00:01:25.880
info calling it a profound and expensive

00:01:23.720 --> 00:01:31.360
mistake also known as buying many Apple products speaking of outrageous pricing

00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:37.560
RTX 50 Series graphics cards from MSI and ASUS have had their prices increased

00:01:34.119 --> 00:01:38.799
by hundreds of dollars as Tech spotted

00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:44.040
by Tech spot I'm sorry the USA's New China

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

00:01:46.280 --> 00:01:53.360
ASUS decision to make its Rog astral 90

00:01:50.520 --> 00:02:00.600
even more expensive by making its cooler out of literal gold the Rog astral dahab

00:01:57.439 --> 00:02:02.960
OC Edition has an MSRP of

00:02:00.600 --> 00:02:07.399
$2,800 but retailers will probably charge even more than that given that

00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:12.319
the regular astrals already listed for more than 3,000 hey want to pay even

00:02:10.080 --> 00:02:16.599
more for gpus that are still being plagued with black screen problems at

00:02:14.720 --> 00:02:21.720
least NVIDIA's investigating that now according to PC Gamer as reports of

00:02:18.720 --> 00:02:23.879
similar issues have emerged from RTX 40

00:02:21.720 --> 00:02:28.280
series owners pointing to a problem with NVIDIA's latest driver but complaining

00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:32.519
is kind of pointless there's still no stock anywhere so this all feels a bit

00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:38.560
like ordering lunch at the Hoopa New Deli that just opened in your niece's

00:02:34.959 --> 00:02:41.120
playroom here's your sandwich this plate

00:02:38.560 --> 00:02:45.920
is empty where's my sandwich I don't know how to be an

00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:48.319
uncle you may not know this but AI is

00:02:45.920 --> 00:02:54.040
getting pretty good now researchers at bite dance just showed off omnium one

00:02:51.599 --> 00:02:58.560
which can turn an image and audio into generated video with lip syncing and

00:02:56.159 --> 00:03:02.640
gestures virtually indistinguishable from the real original video video it

00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:07.400
was based on it's not publicly available yet still locked to bite Dan's servers

00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:12.519
where it's probably partying with all of the unencrypted data being sent there

00:03:10.040 --> 00:03:16.480
from the iOS deep seek app which apparently has so many security holes it

00:03:14.519 --> 00:03:20.120
would make people with Trypophobia have aneurysms if they weren't so busy

00:03:18.239 --> 00:03:24.959
downloading every Chinese app that asked how their day is going yes running deep

00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:28.879
seek models locally solves that issue and others are starting to recreate

00:03:26.720 --> 00:03:33.640
deep- seek success Stanford and University ofing researchers used the

00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:38.200
distillation technique that open aai accused deep seek of using to train a

00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:44.560
reasoning model that performs similarly to open ai's 01 preview using just $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

00:03:47.760 --> 00:03:54.239
might not even have to Pirate 80 terabytes worth of books to train their

00:03:51.959 --> 00:03:57.360
models anymore like meta almost certainly did according to recently

00:03:56.159 --> 00:04:03.280
unsealed emails guys they're just books not truly

00:04:01.480 --> 00:04:08.159
copyright protected material like the output of a chatbot trained on books you

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

00:04:58.880 --> 00:05:06.360
Trump Administration has paused its removal of the DI Minimus exemption

00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:11.199
meaning lowcost packages from China will not be subject to tariffs at least until

00:05:09.080 --> 00:05:15.680
the Commerce Department confirms that adequate systems are in place to collect

00:05:13.440 --> 00:05:22.479
that Revenue Trump's tariffs have also moved ASRock to shift its manufacturing

00:05:18.680 --> 00:05:24.080
out of China to the US no to other

00:05:22.479 --> 00:05:29.360
countries that aren't subject to the same tariffs like Vietnam and Taiwan I

00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:34.280
know what will stop this killing the national EV charging program what will

00:05:32.039 --> 00:05:38.319
Elon think of that maybe nothing he's kind of busy right now storming more

00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:42.039
government agencies that America absolutely doesn't need like the

00:05:40.160 --> 00:05:46.199
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration and the Consumer

00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:50.720
Financial Protection Bureau whose demise musk is apparently already celebrating

00:05:48.880 --> 00:05:56.680
uh you need the government to protect your finances for you ever heard of

00:05:53.880 --> 00:06:02.639
Swords the department the Department of Justice did temporarily block musk's do

00:05:59.880 --> 00:06:08.560
group from accessing US Treasury data allowing only two of elon's acolytes to

00:06:05.400 --> 00:06:11.680
have readon access although it seems

00:06:08.560 --> 00:06:13.800
like they already had right access and

00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:19.360
are using all that juicy classified data to train a government chatbot which

00:06:16.120 --> 00:06:21.680
doesn't sound super secure but on the

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

00:06:25.280 --> 00:06:31.319
Apple has published research that makes it really look like they're building a

00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:36.479
real life Ro robot version of the Pixar lamp with lifelike expressive movements

00:06:34.520 --> 00:06:42.960
and the ability to respond to human gestures like hey look over there and

00:06:39.280 --> 00:06:45.039
back up back back back the up to prevent

00:06:42.960 --> 00:06:49.479
the IR robot from joining the AI Uprising they've bolted it to the table

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

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

00:06:56.680 --> 00:07:03.720
perhaps the least expected thing an

00:06:59.800 --> 00:07:06.840
Lightning to HDMI adapter dle someone

00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:09.919
possibly named John who goes by Neon

00:07:06.840 --> 00:07:12.639
Satan online adapted the well-known

00:07:09.919 --> 00:07:19.000
Checkmate boot ROM exploit to get ID software's classic running on the

00:07:14.440 --> 00:07:20.639
dongles Samsung S5 L8 747 processor it's

00:07:19.000 --> 00:07:24.199
nice to know that if the whole GPU situation doesn't get better you've

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

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

00:07:31.759 --> 00:07:39.759
tell you to come back for more Tech news on Monday and now I have

00:07:40.599 --> 00:07:44.400
so was it worth it
