1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:07,080
shall I compare the tech news to a summer's day why would I do that they

2
00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:12,639
they have nothing in common at their unpacked event this morning Samsung

3
00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:15,320
unveiled the Galaxy s24 s24 plus and s24

4
00:00:12,639 --> 00:00:21,680
Ultra packed with new features powered by Galaxy AI which as we'll see in most

5
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:25,160
cases actually means Google AI these companies are showing so much PDA it's

6
00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:30,480
making me a little uncomfortable the S 24s all support Wi-Fi 7 and are powered

7
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:36,079
by the slightly tweaked snapdragon 8 gen 3 for Galaxy promising 53% better R

8
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:41,440
tracing performance and the twitch streamer that Samsung referred to as

9
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:45,360
Pokemon said she's excited about that because Ray tracing is one of the main

10
00:00:43,280 --> 00:00:48,360
reasons she's a PC Gamer even though consoles have it too and you're talking

11
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:53,960
about gaming on a phone anyway it doesn't matter the s24 ultra has a peak

12
00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:57,039
brightness of 2600 nits beating the

13
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:59,359
iPhone 15 Pro and pixel 8 Pro and making

14
00:00:57,039 --> 00:01:05,400
this Samsung guy say it's perfect for him since since he loves gaming outdoors

15
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:09,119
I love gaming Outdoors myself there's just something about the squinting and

16
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:14,080
the sweaty end or cold fingers that really works for me I want to fight a

17
00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:20,520
bear as for camera upgrades interestingly the s23 10x optical zoom

18
00:01:17,479 --> 00:01:24,680
has been cut in half the s24 can only do

19
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:26,960
5x optical zoom and 10 times at Optical

20
00:01:24,680 --> 00:01:32,240
quality although it is the first Samsung phone with five times optical zoom on 8

21
00:01:29,960 --> 00:01:37,799
K video and it can still do pretty good digital zoom up to 100 times which Mr

22
00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:40,119
Beast was very excited about he's always

23
00:01:37,799 --> 00:01:44,320
excited just loves life Samsung built the s24 ultra with a titanium frame

24
00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:50,280
because that went so well for the iPhone 15 Pro added brand new stronger Corning

25
00:01:47,719 --> 00:01:56,240
Gorilla armor and is offering the phones in a range of gender neutral colors

26
00:01:53,600 --> 00:02:01,399
thank goodness I do not want to seem like a py then there's the new AI

27
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:07,280
features presented with the tagline epic just like that which has to be written

28
00:02:04,119 --> 00:02:09,959
by AI the s24 lineup supports real-time

29
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:14,239
translation in voice calls and text messages and in the latter it can even

30
00:02:11,959 --> 00:02:19,000
translate your tone if you don't make words good generative edit can replace

31
00:02:16,920 --> 00:02:23,800
parts of a photo and fill outside the edges using Google's image and 2 while

32
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:27,599
instance slow-mo will insert AI generated frames to your existing video

33
00:02:26,160 --> 00:02:33,800
if you want to see what your skateboard trick would look like if you were dreaming or hi on something Galaxy AI

34
00:02:31,519 --> 00:02:39,360
features use some on device processing powered by Google's Gemini Nano model or

35
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:44,440
extra Cloud processing if you enable it using Gemini Pro which can summarize

36
00:02:41,640 --> 00:02:49,200
text in notes voice recorder and Samsung keyboard that's not all Google helped

37
00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:54,319
Samsung with on January 31st the Galaxy s24 series will be the only phones other

38
00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:59,280
than the pixel 8 and 8 Pro to support Circle to search which lets you Circle

39
00:02:56,879 --> 00:03:02,560
anything in any app to Google it with Google l

40
00:03:00,640 --> 00:03:08,000
Galaxy phones starting with the s24 series will also now get 7 years of

41
00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:12,280
security and OS updates just like pixels plus now that Samsung's Quick Share

42
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:16,879
works with every Android phone it's definitely the airdrop of Android now

43
00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:21,519
Samsung and Google why are you guys together all the time and why did

44
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:28,239
Samsung announce they're making a smart ring OMG Samsung's going to propose I

45
00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:33,000
couldn't think of a cuter Tech Giant couple but that may get off to a rocky

46
00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:36,680
start it's otherwise been a bad week of news for Google who are reportedly

47
00:03:34,799 --> 00:03:40,239
laying off hundreds of employees from their ad sales team for at least the

48
00:03:38,799 --> 00:03:44,760
last few months the company has been moving staff away from serving its

49
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:48,640
largest advertising clients as it increasingly automates those Services

50
00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:53,519
through AI powered products like performance Max essentially Google is

51
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:58,200
replacing many of its former Salesforce with the AI created by Google's own

52
00:03:55,840 --> 00:04:02,120
Engineers which has got to make the water cooler talk a little awkward award

53
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:06,760
perhaps trying to avoid further negative attention Google also quietly updated

54
00:04:04,599 --> 00:04:11,200
its incognito mode disclaimer in a canary build of chrome to inform users

55
00:04:09,079 --> 00:04:14,799
that the company is in fact collecting their information while they're in

56
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:19,120
incognito mode and they always have been in the aftermath of a class action

57
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:23,800
lawsuit in not Google's fault but definitely Google's problem news a

58
00:04:21,280 --> 00:04:28,919
recent study by German researchers has confirmed that Google search results are

59
00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:33,639
indeed getting worse as are all other search engines because they're

60
00:04:30,479 --> 00:04:35,320
absolutely swamped with SEO spam worse

61
00:04:33,639 --> 00:04:40,280
Google's attempts to address this flood of informational sewage seems to have

62
00:04:37,440 --> 00:04:44,400
only a minor temporary impact but there was one bright spot in Google's week so

63
00:04:42,479 --> 00:04:48,880
far turns out that the noticeable slowdown on YouTube for ad blocker users

64
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:54,280
wasn't a punishment from Google but a bug within ad block and ad block plus

65
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:59,000
itself after their recent update I guess we'll chalk one up for the little guy

66
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:04,039
the massive International conglomerate little guy the Supreme Court has

67
00:05:01,039 --> 00:05:06,320
declined to hear either epic or Apple's

68
00:05:04,039 --> 00:05:11,639
appeal in their longtime legal dispute over Apple's iOS store rules meaning

69
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:18,400
that the case is mostly over and the lower courts ruling stands I say mostly

70
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:20,840
because now apple is seeking $7 73.4

71
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:25,639
million from epic in order to cover its legal fees and apple needs the money

72
00:05:23,919 --> 00:05:30,000
considering how it was overtaken by Microsoft as the world's most valuable

73
00:05:27,479 --> 00:05:35,800
company just last week despite Apple selling the most phones out of any OEM

74
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:38,240
in 2023 basically broke I mean Tim Cook

75
00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:43,680
hasn't left his office he's just sobbing as a refresher the Lower Court

76
00:05:40,840 --> 00:05:47,919
ruling wasn't totally in Apple's favor however and they will be forced to relax

77
00:05:45,919 --> 00:05:52,400
their anti- steering policies for the US App Store and allow app developers to

78
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:57,280
direct users to Alternative payment methods however according to Apple's

79
00:05:54,440 --> 00:06:01,560
newly revised App Store guidelines Apple will still take a commission on those

80
00:05:59,039 --> 00:06:06,720
sales 12% for members of the App Store Small Business program and 27% for

81
00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:11,080
everyone else thus while this doesn't eliminate App Store fees given the sheer

82
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:15,160
number of developers involved it does make them harder for Apple to collect

83
00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:20,880
and enforce it'd be like if instead of lowering taxes the government just

84
00:06:17,240 --> 00:06:23,120
banned the IRS from snooping snooping

85
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:27,400

00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:36,599
about the modified quotes with the US presidential election coming this year

101
00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:41,199
openai has announced new rules intended to prevent its AI tools from being used

102
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:45,720
to propagate political misinformation including Banning chat Bots intended to

103
00:07:43,960 --> 00:07:50,120
impersonate government officials or political candidates though considering

104
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:55,280
that open AI has also banned AI girlfriends and its own GPT store is

105
00:07:53,199 --> 00:08:00,879
still packed to the rafters with Robo wuss it's not entirely clear how well

106
00:07:58,199 --> 00:08:05,319
enforced these new rules will be open AI has likewise silently deleted language

107
00:08:03,039 --> 00:08:10,080
from its terms of service Banning military use of chat gbt so I'm

108
00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:14,759
personally looking forward to this November when an AI powerered hatsun

109
00:08:12,440 --> 00:08:19,680
Miku gets voted into the White House in a l slide and immediately declares war

110
00:08:17,720 --> 00:08:25,599
on someone it's going to be the cutest War you've ever seen how I make of this

111
00:08:23,199 --> 00:08:30,159
huh that's who name Dell's pretty cool cam memory technology they announced a

112
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:34,279
few years ago was adop Ed as a new standard by the jedc solid state

113
00:08:32,360 --> 00:08:40,360
technology Association last month under the name LP cam 2 and modules were

114
00:08:37,599 --> 00:08:45,720
unveiled by Micron last week the new standard allows for the benefits of

115
00:08:42,240 --> 00:08:47,640
faster lpddr memory without soldering it

116
00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:52,800
directly to the motherboard and it requires much less space than the

117
00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:55,360
existing sodim standard I feel bad for

118
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:59,600
sodim being replaced but it kind of had it coming with a name like that

119
00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:03,680
Executives of Fujitsu have fin finally acknowledged that the company should

120
00:09:01,240 --> 00:09:08,760
help compensate the victims of the British post office Scandal where over

121
00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:14,519
900 Postal Service contractors were falsely charged with theft and fraud

122
00:09:11,399 --> 00:09:17,600
between 1999 and 2015 due to errors

123
00:09:14,519 --> 00:09:19,880
caused by the buggy Fujitsu accounting

124
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:24,240
software Fujitsu has also admitted that the company knew the software was

125
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:29,279
defective even as it helped the Royal Male prosecute hundreds of innocent

126
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:34,200
people leading to imprisonment bankr repy and at least four suicides postal

127
00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:38,640
workers traditionally hold a place of trust and respect in British society and

128
00:09:36,279 --> 00:09:43,000
many children grew up watching classic stopmotion cartoon Postman Pat little

129
00:09:41,560 --> 00:09:46,880
did they know that the show would end with poor Pat doing hard time after he

130
00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:50,680
gets framed for high crimes and misdemeanors by a malfunctioning

131
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:56,120
computer I had never heard of this story before today and it's wild non-profit

132
00:09:53,480 --> 00:10:01,560
organization fairly trained has launched a new certification program for AI model

133
00:09:59,079 --> 00:10:06,279
models that respect relevant copyright similar to the fair trade label on

00:10:03,839 --> 00:10:13,279
coffee and other similar Goods fairly trained was founded by stability ai's

xvp for audio Ed Newton Rex cool name

136
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:19,600
who reportedly left the company over concerns that they were exploiting

137
00:10:17,160 --> 00:10:24,360
creators in order to acquire the Fairly trained stamp of approval generative AI

138
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:28,399
models must have clear permission to use all of the copyrighted material they're

139
00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:32,360

140
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:38,839
gluten-free non- GMO and organic it's none of them and will IM is launching a

141
00:10:35,680 --> 00:10:42,000
Serious XM podcast and co-hosting it

142
00:10:38,839 --> 00:10:44,800
with an AI because of course he is will.

143
00:10:42,000 --> 00:10:49,399
i.m is so 3008 that he has already transcended

144
00:10:47,360 --> 00:10:54,079
mortal concerns like how to spell names without periods in the middle of them

145
00:10:51,360 --> 00:11:01,320
naturally his AI co-host name is spelled QD period Pi but pronounced cutipie

146
00:10:58,680 --> 00:11:07,120
again of course the AI is powered by Williams AI app FYI which stands for

147
00:11:05,399 --> 00:11:13,680
Focus your ideas what tremendous advice from the

148
00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:16,600
writer of the 2005 Masterpiece My

149
00:11:13,680 --> 00:11:20,120
Humps and you better write a comment promising to come back on Friday for

150
00:11:18,200 --> 00:11:27,360
more Tech news we won't have an AI co-host as far as you know but seriously

151
00:11:24,399 --> 00:11:31,560
there's no AI here um there isn't m
