1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:07,319
the phrase green bubbles used to make me think of the beer some people add green

2
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:11,280
food coloring to on St Patrick's Day and I don't know why cuz I don't think he

3
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:16,400
would have stood for that Apple has finally added support for Rich

4
00:00:13,040 --> 00:00:19,439
communication services or RCS to the iOS

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:22,000
18 beta allowing both iPhone and Android

6
00:00:19,439 --> 00:00:25,560
users the opportunity to experience what it's like to receive a photo that

7
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:31,400
doesn't look like it was taken on a pal pilot yep iMessage now graciously lets

8
00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:36,280
both types of you users send highquality media start group chats see typing

9
00:00:33,840 --> 00:00:41,800
indicators and even read receipts what it doesn't do is change Android messages

10
00:00:39,079 --> 00:00:46,640
from green to blue so no Gizmodo the green bubble nightmare is not over

11
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:51,239
although now it is more like a fever dream need to go to the hospital while

12
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:56,520
this is arguably one of the most impactful feature drops announced at

13
00:00:53,399 --> 00:00:58,559
WWDC Apple dedicated a single sentence

14
00:00:56,520 --> 00:01:04,040
to it in the press release mentioning a better experience when messaging

15
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:05,960
contacts who do not have an Apple device

16
00:01:04,040 --> 00:01:10,880
you may know them by their other name most people now this is a beta so there

17
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:16,240
are some quirks for example RCS isn't yet supported if your iPhone is on an

18
00:01:13,119 --> 00:01:17,880
mvno Network like Google F but can you

19
00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:20,759
blame Google for not having this ready on their own network they've been

20
00:01:19,320 --> 00:01:24,240
texting Apple to see if they want to come over for years and then suddenly

21
00:01:22,479 --> 00:01:30,840
they show up at the door oh how did it get so messy one

22
00:01:27,759 --> 00:01:32,920
second oh no please YouTube has begun

23
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:38,079
rolling out new features for premium users including the jump ahead button

24
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:42,759
after a limited testing phase premium subscribers on Android in the US will

25
00:01:40,759 --> 00:01:47,040
see the button when double tapping to skip forward in a video YouTube says

26
00:01:44,960 --> 00:01:51,880
instead of doing that manually you can just tap the button and it'll take you

27
00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:54,920
right where you want to go what's that how does the button know where you want

28
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,479
to go what are you a freethinking

29
00:01:57,039 --> 00:02:03,159
individual with your own preferences and opinions get out of here YouTube's also

30
00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:07,640
bringing back its conversational AI for premium users which can answer questions

31
00:02:05,079 --> 00:02:11,400
about the content of a video like hey conversational AI what was in that part

32
00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:16,879
that I skipped over ah you weren't looking for that don't don't don't worry about it the YouTube app also now

33
00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:21,400
supports viewing shorts in picture and picture mode for Subway Surface fans and

34
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:25,920
apparently more types of YouTube premium plans are on the way with new ways to

35
00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:29,560
share your benefits with friends who don't have an AI to tell them the only

36
00:02:27,879 --> 00:02:36,519
parts of a video that are worth watching those poor people the CEO of Microsoft

37
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:39,720
AI Mustafa Suliman went a bit viral this

38
00:02:36,519 --> 00:02:41,720
week for calling web content freeware

39
00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:46,400
that AI companies are totally fine to train their AI models on under the

40
00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:51,640
social contract of fair use that has been standard since the 9s and while

41
00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:58,519
calling what is in many cases copyrighted Works freear seems bad his

42
00:02:55,959 --> 00:03:03,159
core argument there is defendable and really nothing new that's how all the

43
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:09,000
big llms have been trained but he also called it a gray area when websites

44
00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:13,400
explicitly tell web crawlers not to scrape their sites for Content a quote I

45
00:03:11,519 --> 00:03:19,440
could easily work into a joke about consent but I won't because I told

46
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:22,319
myself no Suliman said the gray stuff

47
00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:26,959
will work its way through the courts and he's right the nonprofit behind Mother

48
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:31,480
Jones and the reveal radio show the center for investigative reporting just

49
00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:37,040
sued Microsoft and open aai for copyright violations the same day openai

50
00:03:34,920 --> 00:03:41,799
added Time Magazine to the list of outlets its formed content Partnerships

51
00:03:39,239 --> 00:03:46,120
with an acknowledgement of the greyness of the copyright question but as for AI

52
00:03:43,879 --> 00:03:50,920
search company perplexity well given their recent plagiarism scandals it

53
00:03:48,080 --> 00:03:55,000
seems like they don't care as much which shade of gray the chips land on which

54
00:03:53,480 --> 00:04:00,200
kind of tracks with the fact that its CEO told Lex fredman his company got its

55
00:03:57,519 --> 00:04:03,799
start by making fake academic accounts so they could scrape Twitter's data to

56
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:08,000
use in their product I think it's well pasted time a trustworthy morally

57
00:04:05,879 --> 00:04:12,920
upstanding entity investigated these guys Amazon they'll let us know whether

58
00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:17,120
perplexity staff have access to enough fabric lined weeping booths there aren't

59
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:22,639
nearly enough people here peeing in bottles you need to do something about this but don't weep about being stuck in

60
00:04:20,320 --> 00:04:25,840
a bubble check out our sponsor ground news they're trying to do something

61
00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:29,240
about the fact that the internet has kind of turned into a Cess pool of

62
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:33,720
polarized bubbles where it's easy for inaccurate info to spread unchecked the

63
00:04:31,840 --> 00:04:38,039
solution a platform that gathers articles from all kinds of outlets

64
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:42,080
across the political Spectrum comparing and contrasting like your teacher told

65
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:46,639
you to do to understand where your news comes from and break free of media bias

66
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:50,400
ground news breaks down the political leanings and ownership of each news

67
00:04:48,479 --> 00:04:54,720
source so you can understand why they may report the way they do and what you

68
00:04:52,759 --> 00:04:59,080
may be missing take this story from earlier this week EU Regulators charged

69
00:04:57,520 --> 00:05:03,039
apple with non-compliance with their digital markeet act with ground news we

70
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:07,080
can see that more left leaning Outlets reported on this story focusing on

71
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:11,919
Apple's Behavior while right leaning Outlets highlighted the EU specifically

72
00:05:09,199 --> 00:05:16,400
targeting apple with fines same thing different perspectives I feel so smart

73
00:05:15,199 --> 00:05:20,080
if you already know where you're getting most of your news from their blind spot

74
00:05:18,280 --> 00:05:24,000
feature can show you stories you're most likely missing as well so get the

75
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:28,400
transparency you deserve from your news and save 40% on ground news's Vantage

76
00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:33,639
plan by using our Link in the description okay now you're going to want to get in a more stable stance for

77
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:38,600
when these quick bits come through okay and when they hit you don't don't push

78
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:40,319
back just let them go cuz you do not

79
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:44,800
want to make these things angry due to a glitch with Apple pay many Hungarian

80
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:49,199
iPhone users found themselves getting mistakenly charged for payments they

81
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:53,400
never made thankfully it seems that affected customers will be reimbursed in

82
00:05:51,479 --> 00:05:57,319
the coming week while typically these charges were only small amounts some

83
00:05:55,440 --> 00:06:01,319
users found themselves getting charged several times in a row with one user

84
00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:07,080
getting get charged for nearly $1,500 across 74 transactions in the

85
00:06:04,639 --> 00:06:10,680
space of 5 minutes before the bank blocked any further withdrawals it's

86
00:06:09,039 --> 00:06:17,240
like your bank account deciding on your behalf that you deserve a little treat a

87
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:19,880
little treat a little treat oh I see

88
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:24,560
Intel has shown off a prototype Optical interconnect chip that could allow

89
00:06:22,280 --> 00:06:30,280
server processors to support up to 4 terabits per second interlinks interl

90
00:06:27,840 --> 00:06:33,800
interl sorry it's still early days for the Prototype but Intel is apparently

91
00:06:32,280 --> 00:06:38,800
working with select customers on incorporating it into s so designs

92
00:06:36,319 --> 00:06:44,479
Thomas liberg a director on the project said that server needs are straining the

93
00:06:41,520 --> 00:06:48,120
capabilities of electrical IO designs and that servers also look super super

94
00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:53,240
boring right now so we need to get some laser action in their stat oh no servers

95
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:59,280
are getting boring somebody plays Sandstorm open aai has announced a new

96
00:06:55,800 --> 00:07:01,639
AI model intended to critique Chachi BT

97
00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:07,360
and help human trainers spot errors in its output they called it critic GPT so

98
00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:11,360
don't worry AI Skeptics AI can now do your job

99
00:07:08,879 --> 00:07:15,160
too the same day Google announced a partnership with data services giant

100
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:20,280
Moody which should help Google's Enterprise customers to create AI chat

101
00:07:17,319 --> 00:07:25,720
Bots grounded in facts instead of what they were previously grounded in forchan

102
00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:28,120
green text stories I for one celebrate

103
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:32,680
our AI overlord's attempts to not blatantly make up the FCC has been

104
00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:36,800
inundated with complaints against T-Mobile following the company's

105
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:41,680
decision to raise prices for cellular customers to whom it repeatedly and

106
00:07:38,960 --> 00:07:47,159
explicitly promised a lifetime price freeze however it turns out that in a

107
00:07:44,159 --> 00:07:50,120
separate FAQ the only real guarantee in

108
00:07:47,159 --> 00:07:55,159
the uncarrier UN contract was to pay customers final phone bill if they

109
00:07:52,879 --> 00:07:59,639
decided to cancel following their inevitable betrayal it was always a

110
00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:04,520
little fiscally dubious for T-Mobile to promise so many of its customers a

111
00:08:01,759 --> 00:08:08,280
lifetime price freeze back in 2017 unless for some reason it thought that

112
00:08:06,840 --> 00:08:12,759
most of those customers were going to die in a terrible plague only a few

113
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:17,479
years later I'm just saying T-Mobile are psychic and a computer comprised of

114
00:08:15,520 --> 00:08:22,720
plastic cubes which can change its pattern to represent data without using

115
00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:26,879
any electricity has been developed by researchers at North Carolina State

116
00:08:24,639 --> 00:08:32,120
University why I don't know seems weird the design

117
00:08:29,879 --> 00:08:38,240
was inspired by the Japanese art of kirigami which I can only describe as

118
00:08:34,839 --> 00:08:40,200
origami remastered binary ones and zeros

119
00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:44,920
are represented in the positions of the component cubes which can be pushed up

120
00:08:42,399 --> 00:08:48,880
and down either manually or using magnets we've got a long way to go

121
00:08:46,839 --> 00:08:53,120
before we can use these to fight back against autonomous robot dogs with guns

122
00:08:50,760 --> 00:08:57,640
but hey it's a good start an even better start would be you coming back on Monday

123
00:08:54,959 --> 00:09:02,640
for a to linked episode I recorded with Jonathan Horst of ma address we argue

124
00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:06,160
about Apple and the safety of motorcycles go check it out
