00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.040
listen I don't want to babble too much before the tech news but this video is

00:00:03.760 --> 00:00:09.559
sponsored by Babble spelled differently keep watching and we'll tell you how you

00:00:07.319 --> 00:00:14.120
can get 60% off of Babel subscription okay after a Court ruled that Google has

00:00:12.040 --> 00:00:18.439
abused its market dominance in internet search the US Department of Justice says

00:00:16.400 --> 00:00:22.560
that it's considering structural remedies which is a boring antitrust

00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:27.279
term that means forcing the company to sell off parts of its business breaking

00:00:24.880 --> 00:00:31.439
up Google is only one of a suite of potential remedies that the doj will be

00:00:29.240 --> 00:00:36.040
recommending as options to the judge in the case Amit meta who is almost

00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:39.559
definitely not just Mark Zuckerberg in a black robe and rubber mask it's hard to

00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:44.000
believe that Google might actually get chopped up and sold for spare parts

00:00:41.520 --> 00:00:48.360
mostly because it's been over 40 years since the last time us antitrust

00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:53.800
Regulators actually broke up a company the 1982 breakup of the Bell System

00:00:51.440 --> 00:00:58.280
Microsoft nearly got the Solomon baby treatment 24 years ago but that case was

00:00:56.359 --> 00:01:02.039
appealed and then eventually settled out of court with serious restriction for

00:01:00.480 --> 00:01:06.720
how Microsoft was allowed to do business going forward Google is clearly taking

00:01:04.360 --> 00:01:11.759
the possibility seriously however and has argued that the doj's proposals are

00:01:09.439 --> 00:01:15.960
radical and sweeping and a potential risk to Consumers businesses and

00:01:13.880 --> 00:01:21.360
developers that's what I say whenever I got a brew in my hands I'm radical and

00:01:18.960 --> 00:01:25.439
sweeping Google plans to appeal the decision but it won't have the

00:01:22.759 --> 00:01:30.840
opportunity until meta the judge not the company decides on an appropriate remedy

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:35.399
most likely by August 2025 meaning that this case will most likely drag on for

00:01:32.799 --> 00:01:40.320
at least a few more years in Far lower Stakes Google antitrust news a judge has

00:01:37.880 --> 00:01:45.119
ordered Google to allow third-party app stores to access the Play Store's app

00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:48.920
collection Google likewise plans to appeal this decision though it might be

00:01:47.119 --> 00:01:52.719
cheaper if Sundar pitchai just challenged epic CEO Tim Sweeney to a

00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:57.920
fist fight in the nearest Waffle House parking lot just an idea hackers

00:01:55.719 --> 00:02:03.360
connected to the Chinese government have infiltrated several us internet service

00:02:00.560 --> 00:02:07.280
providers including AT&T Verizon and Lumen they were scared off by the

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:11.319
customer service the hackers reportedly had access to these networks for several

00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:16.160
months and they gained that access through a system of security back doors

00:02:13.800 --> 00:02:20.560
that are legally required by the US government for use in

00:02:18.440 --> 00:02:24.000
wiretapping okay the extent of the attack and what information the hackers

00:02:22.239 --> 00:02:28.599
had access to is still being investigated but if you're wondering how

00:02:25.800 --> 00:02:32.080
bad this is the answer is very the Chinese government has denied being

00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:36.440
behind these attacks and even pretended to be hurt by the accusation despite the

00:02:34.480 --> 00:02:41.640
fact that their government and basically every other government is pulling stuff

00:02:38.200 --> 00:02:43.319
like this all the time but not us

00:02:41.640 --> 00:02:47.200
however this kind of attack highlights a deeper problem with the US government's

00:02:45.000 --> 00:02:51.800
approach to system security where it has long pressured tech companies to embed

00:02:49.519 --> 00:02:56.480
hardware and software backd doors in their products for the sake of its own

00:02:53.920 --> 00:03:01.120
convenience despite the very real risk that a malicious actor could exploit the

00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:05.239
exact same route to cause serious harm like what we're seeing right now this

00:03:03.760 --> 00:03:09.599
was Apple's argument when they were pressured by the FBI to access devices

00:03:07.360 --> 00:03:14.799
belonging to alleged Mass Shooters and the company has largely been Vindicated

00:03:12.040 --> 00:03:18.239
buy your mom an iPhone because she's probably not a terrorist when would she

00:03:16.840 --> 00:03:22.519
launch the attack she spends all her time with me Barbara are you doing

00:03:20.799 --> 00:03:27.920
something I don't like Barbara you're in big trouble EV startup Fisker has run

00:03:25.440 --> 00:03:33.599
into a potentially serious snag in its bankruptcy plans it has no no way of

00:03:30.599 --> 00:03:36.799
migrating its ev's Cloud operations onto

00:03:33.599 --> 00:03:38.680
its new owners servers for context in

00:03:36.799 --> 00:03:43.720
June Fisker reached an agreement with new york-based rental company American

00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:50.480
lease to buy its remaining Fleet of 3,300 vehicles for $46.3 million however

00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:54.640
Fisker only informed American lease that they couldn't transfer the EV server

00:03:52.120 --> 00:04:00.879
links last Friday when they had already paid $42.5 million and accepted 1,00

00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:05.040
ocean SUVs it is currently unclear how long Fisker has known about this

00:04:02.879 --> 00:04:08.840
extremely relevant technical issue American lease has therefore filed an

00:04:06.760 --> 00:04:12.560
emergency objection to fisker's liquidation plan they wanted their

00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:16.600
liquidation plan to be more solid the Department of Justice has

00:04:14.640 --> 00:04:20.479
filed its own objection in response to claims that Fisker has been trying to

00:04:18.359 --> 00:04:25.280
make ocean owners pay for their own recall repairs which is very much

00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:29.720
illegal fiser is likewise attracting ominous attention from the SEC who are

00:04:27.919 --> 00:04:33.160
investigating the company but hav haven't said exactly why that's just

00:04:31.960 --> 00:04:39.080
what happens when you're a struggling company failing to meet its contractual obligations you start seeing the

00:04:36.280 --> 00:04:43.639
silhouette of SEC chairman Gary gendler every time you close your eyes like the

00:04:41.080 --> 00:04:48.600
Grim Reaper does that happen to people but when I close my eyes I just see our

00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:52.440
sponsor Babble the app that helps you learn a new language whether it's for

00:04:50.440 --> 00:04:55.759
business or pleasure learning a few key phrases can really save the day for

00:04:54.560 --> 00:05:01.440
example if you're visiting the Netherlands this fall VAR

00:04:58.280 --> 00:05:03.240
is can help you catch the train on time

00:05:01.440 --> 00:05:08.000
Babel is one of the top language learning apps in the world with lessons

00:05:04.880 --> 00:05:09.840
created by over 650 language experts

00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:13.400
that will help you learn practical real world conversations at a pace you're

00:05:11.639 --> 00:05:17.080
comfortable with in fact Babel's own research says that if you use their app

00:05:15.280 --> 00:05:20.720
to study a brand new language you can learn the equivalent of a beginner's

00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:25.560
College semester in an average of just 15 hours that's pretty good they even

00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:29.199
have a 20day money back guarantee and my research says that's way more than 15

00:05:27.759 --> 00:05:32.680
hours whether you're heading back to school or exploring somewhere new Babble

00:05:39.560 --> 00:05:46.800
Babel for helping you learn a new language believe it or not in 1964 this

00:05:44.520 --> 00:05:50.680
show won the Nobel Prize for quickest bit now that's something to tell your

00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:55.759
grandkids YouTube has started hiding the skip button timer on its mobile app just

00:05:53.479 --> 00:06:01.080
a week after some Reddit users reported seeing a grade out skip button timer on

00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:04.720
desktop now now might not be the worst thing as seen in a screen recording from

00:06:02.960 --> 00:06:09.199
Android police the length of the unskippable portion is still shown in

00:06:06.840 --> 00:06:13.960
the seek bar and the skip button appears after that portion is done and a YouTube

00:06:11.680 --> 00:06:19.800
spokesperson said the change is meant to allow users to focus on the ads yeah

00:06:17.840 --> 00:06:25.599
that's why I don't watch YouTube ads the distracting skip button just can't take

00:06:22.000 --> 00:06:27.840
my eyes off it it's gorgeous ASUS's new

00:06:25.599 --> 00:06:33.360
Nitro paath RAM slot design can apparently boost speeds by a to 400

00:06:30.440 --> 00:06:38.440
megga transfers per second in a peculiar way the tech has no direct improvements

00:06:35.720 --> 00:06:43.840
for populated RAM slots but for the unpopulated ones turns out that the

00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:46.400
metal contacts in empty slots act like

00:06:43.840 --> 00:06:50.880
antennas generating electrical noise that interferes with RAM at high speeds

00:06:49.400 --> 00:06:54.039
it's like how everyone's wisdom teeth accidentally pick up secret CIA

00:06:52.520 --> 00:07:00.039
Transmissions that's that's everyone right that's it's you that happens to you right Nitro paath slots solve this

00:06:57.840 --> 00:07:04.520
by shortening the contacts though the tech was announced back in August it's

00:07:02.039 --> 00:07:08.879
finally arriving on select high-end ASUS motherboards and should come to other

00:07:06.240 --> 00:07:14.120
oems sometime next year according to YouTuber derbauer and my teeth leaked

00:07:11.960 --> 00:07:19.960
slides allegedly from Intel's imminent unveiling of its core alra 200 Series

00:07:16.599 --> 00:07:23.680
Desktop CPUs AKA aerol Lake Show the

00:07:19.960 --> 00:07:26.680
upcoming Flagship core Ultra 9 285k

00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:30.120
providing lower FPS on average than its

00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:32.280
predecessor The Core i 94900 k unless

00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:36.199
we're going to get a Ultra 92 90k at some point we don't know although the

00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:40.199
aerrow lake chip is using 80 Watts less than the older model and it has eight

00:07:37.960 --> 00:07:44.759
fewer threads thanks to Intel removing hyperthreading it's a bit weird that

00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:49.360
Intel is advertising their new product with a promise of more modest

00:07:47.639 --> 00:07:54.479
performance and I don't know maybe that's their marketing angle this CPU

00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:56.560
isn't big and flashy it's very demure

00:07:54.479 --> 00:08:01.759
very mindful of how much power it's using this guy uses Tik Tok meta has now

00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:06.360
confirmed that they will be training its AI on pictures and videos taken using

00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:11.560
Rayband meta smart glasses after previously refusing to publicly discuss

00:08:09.159 --> 00:08:15.280
whether or not they do so oh I guess why why would that be it's guys this isn't

00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:20.159
why are we even worrying about this you can technically opt out of the training

00:08:17.800 --> 00:08:25.080
by not using the multimodal AI capabilities of your multimodal AI

00:08:22.759 --> 00:08:30.000
powered smart glasses meta will also use your voice convos with the AI for

00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:34.919
training though you can actually out of that the first time you log in to the

00:08:32.039 --> 00:08:39.560
Rayband meta app but please don't if you're in Australia or the UK both

00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:43.159
countries that just got access to the AI Zuck needs that voice data so he can

00:08:41.719 --> 00:08:47.800
learn how to tell what the hell you're saying he has no idea that New Zealand

00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:53.959
even exists don't tell them that why do you say words like that and speaking of

00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:56.480
AI won big at this year's Nobel prizes

00:08:53.959 --> 00:09:02.240
the prize for chemistry was awarded to American biochemist David Baker as well

00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:04.120
as Demi hassabi and John jumper of

00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:08.360
Google Deep Mind for their involvement in the development of protein structure

00:09:05.959 --> 00:09:13.279
prediction AI alphafold they're doing chemistry I guess the prize for physics

00:09:11.079 --> 00:09:18.360
went to professors John hopfield and Jeffrey Hinton whose work laid the

00:09:15.440 --> 00:09:23.279
foundation for modern neural networks this is confusing all science is just AI

00:09:20.680 --> 00:09:28.640
now you know AI physics and the noble priz for biology is going to go to

00:09:25.399 --> 00:09:31.240
Boston Dynamics Hinton often called one

00:09:28.640 --> 00:09:35.399
of the god fathers of AI has expressed regrets about his life's work and was

00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:39.399
reportedly flabbergasted to receive the prize you and me both many in the

00:09:37.800 --> 00:09:44.240
scientific Community were equally flabbergasted with German physicist

00:09:41.560 --> 00:09:49.519
Sabine hossenfelder and also a YouTuber now noting that the 2024 Nobel Prize in

00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:53.240
physics wasn't even being award to an achievement in physics but she seems

00:09:51.760 --> 00:09:57.200
just kind of grumpy all the time so I can see that but your award for sitting

00:09:55.360 --> 00:10:02.000
through an entire episode is an invitation to come back on Friday more

00:09:59.680 --> 00:10:06.959
Tech news we're going to do the same thing it but different but different
