WEBVTT 00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.660 happy insert name of your local holiday here where I am it's family day which is 00:00:04.980 --> 00:00:11.400 why I'm spending it with my real family the tech news it found me and raised me 00:00:09.120 --> 00:00:16.680 as a tech news cub in the forest which is why things around here can get a 00:00:12.900 --> 00:00:18.600 little wild sometimes So Meta is rolling 00:00:16.680 --> 00:00:23.400 out a verification Subscription Service similar to Twitter blue this week it'll 00:00:21.300 --> 00:00:27.720 charge 12 to 15 bucks a month for ID verification a blue badge user 00:00:25.859 --> 00:00:31.439 experience enhancements and that feeling of being special you were missing as a 00:00:29.820 --> 00:00:35.820 child Mark Zuckerberg announced the service on his broadcast channel which 00:00:33.719 --> 00:00:40.920 is a new Instagram feature similar to telegram channels that rolled out last 00:00:38.219 --> 00:00:45.660 week meaning that Zuck announced that meta is copying one platform using 00:00:43.020 --> 00:00:50.640 meta's copy of another platform never change Facebook but the move has sparked 00:00:48.180 --> 00:00:55.440 fears that drastic change is coming to the internet at large many people 00:00:52.440 --> 00:00:57.300 ourselves included continue to mock Elon 00:00:55.440 --> 00:01:02.520 musk's impulsive attempts to generate some any Twitter Revenue but if more 00:01:00.660 --> 00:01:07.860 platforms follow suit we may be looking at the end of the free web service era 00:01:05.339 --> 00:01:12.780 musk certainly think so calling meta verified inevitable and you know he knew 00:01:11.159 --> 00:01:17.220 the reference people would make based on that meta's announcement follows Twitter 00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:22.740 locking text message based two-factor authentication behind the blue paywall a 00:01:20.340 --> 00:01:27.840 move security analysts say doesn't make sense since SMS two-factor is vulnerable 00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:33.119 to way more attacks than dedicated authenticator apps and can actually be 00:01:30.420 --> 00:01:37.380 worse than only using a good password but a lot of Twitter users probably 00:01:35.159 --> 00:01:42.600 don't know that and they may be inclined to sign up for blue if they think they 00:01:39.540 --> 00:01:44.880 have to pay to secure their account 00:01:42.600 --> 00:01:48.780 wow in a few years we may be talking about the good old days when internet 00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:52.500 platforms were free thanks to our personal info being collected and sold 00:01:50.399 --> 00:01:56.820 by advertisers I used to run to the corner store and send a tweet for a 00:01:54.720 --> 00:02:02.040 nickel Tick Tock has announced a new creativity program which promises higher 00:02:00.119 --> 00:02:06.180 earnings for creators who can somehow manage to post videos that are more than 00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:11.160 one minute long because the more seconds video has the more creative it is this 00:02:09.060 --> 00:02:15.840 is basic film school stuff actually though the Irishman 00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:18.959 get out of here the announcement confirms at least part of the 00:02:17.160 --> 00:02:23.459 information posted by the information they knew what they were doing last week 00:02:21.300 --> 00:02:28.800 and highlights how much Tick Tock has changed in the six years since launching 00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:30.540 with a 15 second limit on videos now the 00:02:28.800 --> 00:02:34.680 thirst traps play simultaneously alongside Family Guy eclipse and footage 00:02:32.819 --> 00:02:39.360 from endless Runner mobile games it's way different but the creativity program 00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:44.099 specifically requires high quality original content to be eligible for more 00:02:42.000 --> 00:02:49.019 money so hopefully our old pal capitalism can fix what was broken by 00:02:46.739 --> 00:02:52.800 its dark counterpart capitalism it's like the good bad it's a spy versus spy 00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:57.780 you know it's like and Nintendo might be making it a little easier to access its 00:02:55.260 --> 00:03:01.739 library of retro games if we follow the path of potentially baseless but 00:02:59.700 --> 00:03:06.780 interesting speculation laid out in this R's technical article ours technical 00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:10.739 article that's not a diss I made this a main story so just just hear me out so 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.099 the UK's competition and markets Authority is investigating Microsoft's 00:03:12.480 --> 00:03:18.000 planned acquisition of Activision Blizzard and wrote report on whether 00:03:15.900 --> 00:03:23.220 Nintendo switch online could compete with Xbox game pass in which they said 00:03:20.420 --> 00:03:28.800 Nintendo's service is only available on the Nintendo switch device and redacted 00:03:26.040 --> 00:03:33.900 begin speculation now available on the switch and what so one it could be a 00:03:32.099 --> 00:03:39.300 future Nintendo console which we know is launching at the very least this Century 00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:44.879 or two it might be Nintendo plans to let you stream switch online games to your 00:03:41.519 --> 00:03:46.620 phone like xcloud frankly anything that 00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:50.220 can give people access to Nintendo's back catalog would be good since there 00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:54.299 would be less justification to Pirate Nintendo games and therefore less 00:03:52.080 --> 00:03:59.040 lawsuits from Nintendo which the company has said it uses to send a message it 00:03:57.720 --> 00:04:02.459 would have made more sense for me to do an impression of like a Triad gangster 00:04:00.780 --> 00:04:05.700 there rather than an Italian mafia so but that wouldn't be appropriate now 00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:09.480 it's time for quick bits brought to you by brilliant you know these days more 00:04:07.620 --> 00:04:13.439

scent do not react fans of 00:04:59.220 --> 00:05:05.759 the new AI powered Bing were despondent last week when Microsoft imposed new 00:05:03.540 --> 00:05:10.800 limits on the chatbot which According to some amounted to a lobotomy well a few 00:05:09.060 --> 00:05:15.840 sources have indicated that the limits are temporary while Microsoft figures 00:05:13.380 --> 00:05:19.680 out how to make Bing not pledge undying love to whoever asks it a few personal 00:05:17.520 --> 00:05:26.400 questions I also know a few humans with this problem so thankfully this lobotomy 00:05:22.380 --> 00:05:29.100 is reversible unlike human ones in other 00:05:26.400 --> 00:05:35.400 humans crushing ai's dreams news go player Kellen pellerine has defeated the 00:05:32.100 --> 00:05:37.919 top go-playing AI models catego and Lila 00:05:35.400 --> 00:05:43.919 zero seven years after deepmind's alphago AI defeated one of the world's 00:05:40.080 --> 00:05:46.020 top human players Lee sedol now pelreen 00:05:43.919 --> 00:05:51.060 defeated the AI players using strategies suggested by another computer program 00:05:48.180 --> 00:05:54.720 that probed the AIS for weaknesses but they weren't like in his ear or anything 00:05:53.039 --> 00:05:59.280 when he played the match he had it all he had it all appear okay so come on 00:05:56.880 --> 00:06:02.660 back Lee said oh give it another try can you imagine he comes back and like gets 00:06:00.479 --> 00:06:07.620 destroyed Microsoft has finally allowed M1 and M2 00:06:05.759 --> 00:06:13.199 Max to run full featured versions of Windows 11 on ARM through the Parallels 00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:15.539 Desktop app meaning Mac users no longer 00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:21.900 have to use an Insider preview build to access such features as slow loading and 00:06:18.300 --> 00:06:23.699 bad app support okay that's not fair I 00:06:21.900 --> 00:06:29.699 haven't tried Windows unarm for a while so in terms of ARM processor support now 00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:34.380 it could be slightly better than way way worse than macOS Chrome has gotten a 00:06:32.340 --> 00:06:38.340 new update that adds energy saver and memory saver features that will help the 00:06:36.479 --> 00:06:43.080 browser use less energy and memory respectively by snoozing inactive tabs 00:06:41.220 --> 00:06:47.639 which can then be reloaded by clicking on them again the tab it's a sorely 00:06:45.300 --> 00:06:52.319 needed update although I'd prefer if Google could like make each Tab and the 00:06:50.460 --> 00:06:55.800 browser as a whole use less energy and memory instead of like cutting off your 00:06:54.600 --> 00:07:02.460 leg because you're not using it right now so that's just me and air travel is about 00:06:59.100 --> 00:07:04.620 to get more stimulating if a patent just 00:07:02.460 --> 00:07:08.880 granted to Brazilian Aerospace company Embraer is any indication of course 00:07:06.900 --> 00:07:13.199 they're Brazilian it describes a system built into airplane seats that can scan 00:07:11.280 --> 00:07:18.180 passengers faces to determine their emotional state and then offer 00:07:15.259 --> 00:07:22.800 transcranial stimulation of either the magnetic or electrical variety seems 00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:25.560 like it would be amazing to turn on if you're stuck with a seat partner who 00:07:24.180 --> 00:07:29.759 won't stop talking about how both varieties are actually part of the same 00:07:27.419 --> 00:07:33.300 phenomenon of electromagnetism and oh you probably you probably shouldn't turn 00:07:31.139 --> 00:07:37.199 it up that high and you shouldn't turn away from the tech news come Wednesday 00:07:35.039 --> 00:07:42.539 because we'll be back and hopefully delivering better Segways than that one 00:07:39.479 --> 00:07:44.780 I'm sorry you know Mondays you know what 00:07:42.539 --> 00:07:44.780 I mean
