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

00:00:05.200 --> 00:00:12.639
they have nothing in common at their unpacked event this morning Samsung

00:00:08.840 --> 00:00:15.320
unveiled the Galaxy s24 s24 plus and s24

00:00:12.639 --> 00:00:21.680
Ultra packed with new features powered by Galaxy AI which as we'll see in most

00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:25.160
cases actually means Google AI these companies are showing so much PDA it's

00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:30.480
making me a little uncomfortable the S 24s all support Wi-Fi 7 and are powered

00:00:27.880 --> 00:00:36.079
by the slightly tweaked snapdragon 8 gen 3 for Galaxy promising 53% better R

00:00:34.320 --> 00:00:41.440
tracing performance and the twitch streamer that Samsung referred to as

00:00:38.520 --> 00:00:45.360
Pokemon said she's excited about that because Ray tracing is one of the main

00:00:43.280 --> 00:00:48.360
reasons she's a PC Gamer even though consoles have it too and you're talking

00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:53.960
about gaming on a phone anyway it doesn't matter the s24 ultra has a peak

00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:57.039
brightness of 2600 nits beating the

00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:59.359
iPhone 15 Pro and pixel 8 Pro and making

00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:05.400
this Samsung guy say it's perfect for him since since he loves gaming outdoors

00:01:02.440 --> 00:01:09.119
I love gaming Outdoors myself there's just something about the squinting and

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:14.080
the sweaty end or cold fingers that really works for me I want to fight a

00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:20.520
bear as for camera upgrades interestingly the s23 10x optical zoom

00:01:17.479 --> 00:01:24.680
has been cut in half the s24 can only do

00:01:20.520 --> 00:01:26.960
5x optical zoom and 10 times at Optical

00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:32.240
quality although it is the first Samsung phone with five times optical zoom on 8

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

00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:40.119
Beast was very excited about he's always

00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:44.320
excited just loves life Samsung built the s24 ultra with a titanium frame

00:01:42.880 --> 00:01:50.280
because that went so well for the iPhone 15 Pro added brand new stronger Corning

00:01:47.719 --> 00:01:56.240
Gorilla armor and is offering the phones in a range of gender neutral colors

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

00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:07.280
features presented with the tagline epic just like that which has to be written

00:02:04.119 --> 00:02:09.959
by AI the s24 lineup supports real-time

00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:14.239
translation in voice calls and text messages and in the latter it can even

00:02:11.959 --> 00:02:19.000
translate your tone if you don't make words good generative edit can replace

00:02:16.920 --> 00:02:23.800
parts of a photo and fill outside the edges using Google's image and 2 while

00:02:21.480 --> 00:02:27.599
instance slow-mo will insert AI generated frames to your existing video

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

00:02:31.519 --> 00:02:39.360
features use some on device processing powered by Google's Gemini Nano model or

00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:44.440
extra Cloud processing if you enable it using Gemini Pro which can summarize

00:02:41.640 --> 00:02:49.200
text in notes voice recorder and Samsung keyboard that's not all Google helped

00:02:46.440 --> 00:02:54.319
Samsung with on January 31st the Galaxy s24 series will be the only phones other

00:02:51.800 --> 00:02:59.280
than the pixel 8 and 8 Pro to support Circle to search which lets you Circle

00:02:56.879 --> 00:03:02.560
anything in any app to Google it with Google l

00:03:00.640 --> 00:03:08.000
Galaxy phones starting with the s24 series will also now get 7 years of

00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:12.280
security and OS updates just like pixels plus now that Samsung's Quick Share

00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:16.879
works with every Android phone it's definitely the airdrop of Android now

00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:21.519
Samsung and Google why are you guys together all the time and why did

00:03:18.720 --> 00:03:28.239
Samsung announce they're making a smart ring OMG Samsung's going to propose I

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

00:03:31.040 --> 00:03:36.680
start it's otherwise been a bad week of news for Google who are reportedly

00:03:34.799 --> 00:03:40.239
laying off hundreds of employees from their ad sales team for at least the

00:03:38.799 --> 00:03:44.760
last few months the company has been moving staff away from serving its

00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:48.640
largest advertising clients as it increasingly automates those Services

00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:53.519
through AI powered products like performance Max essentially Google is

00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:58.200
replacing many of its former Salesforce with the AI created by Google's own

00:03:55.840 --> 00:04:02.120
Engineers which has got to make the water cooler talk a little awkward award

00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:06.760
perhaps trying to avoid further negative attention Google also quietly updated

00:04:04.599 --> 00:04:11.200
its incognito mode disclaimer in a canary build of chrome to inform users

00:04:09.079 --> 00:04:14.799
that the company is in fact collecting their information while they're in

00:04:12.560 --> 00:04:19.120
incognito mode and they always have been in the aftermath of a class action

00:04:16.720 --> 00:04:23.800
lawsuit in not Google's fault but definitely Google's problem news a

00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:28.919
recent study by German researchers has confirmed that Google search results are

00:04:26.280 --> 00:04:33.639
indeed getting worse as are all other search engines because they're

00:04:30.479 --> 00:04:35.320
absolutely swamped with SEO spam worse

00:04:33.639 --> 00:04:40.280
Google's attempts to address this flood of informational sewage seems to have

00:04:37.440 --> 00:04:44.400
only a minor temporary impact but there was one bright spot in Google's week so

00:04:42.479 --> 00:04:48.880
far turns out that the noticeable slowdown on YouTube for ad blocker users

00:04:46.960 --> 00:04:54.280
wasn't a punishment from Google but a bug within ad block and ad block plus

00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:59.000
itself after their recent update I guess we'll chalk one up for the little guy

00:04:56.520 --> 00:05:04.039
the massive International conglomerate little guy the Supreme Court has

00:05:01.039 --> 00:05:06.320
declined to hear either epic or Apple's

00:05:04.039 --> 00:05:11.639
appeal in their longtime legal dispute over Apple's iOS store rules meaning

00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:18.400
that the case is mostly over and the lower courts ruling stands I say mostly

00:05:15.280 --> 00:05:20.840
because now apple is seeking $7 73.4

00:05:18.400 --> 00:05:25.639
million from epic in order to cover its legal fees and apple needs the money

00:05:23.919 --> 00:05:30.000
considering how it was overtaken by Microsoft as the world's most valuable

00:05:27.479 --> 00:05:35.800
company just last week despite Apple selling the most phones out of any OEM

00:05:32.520 --> 00:05:38.240
in 2023 basically broke I mean Tim Cook

00:05:35.800 --> 00:05:43.680
hasn't left his office he's just sobbing as a refresher the Lower Court

00:05:40.840 --> 00:05:47.919
ruling wasn't totally in Apple's favor however and they will be forced to relax

00:05:45.919 --> 00:05:52.400
their anti- steering policies for the US App Store and allow app developers to

00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:57.280
direct users to Alternative payment methods however according to Apple's

00:05:54.440 --> 00:06:01.560
newly revised App Store guidelines Apple will still take a commission on those

00:05:59.039 --> 00:06:06.720
sales 12% for members of the App Store Small Business program and 27% for

00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:11.080
everyone else thus while this doesn't eliminate App Store fees given the sheer

00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:15.160
number of developers involved it does make them harder for Apple to collect

00:06:12.720 --> 00:06:20.880
and enforce it'd be like if instead of lowering taxes the government just

00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:23.120
banned the IRS from snooping snooping

00:06:20.880 --> 00:06:27.400

about the modified quotes with the US presidential election coming this year

00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:41.199
openai has announced new rules intended to prevent its AI tools from being used

00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:45.720
to propagate political misinformation including Banning chat Bots intended to

00:07:43.960 --> 00:07:50.120
impersonate government officials or political candidates though considering

00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:55.280
that open AI has also banned AI girlfriends and its own GPT store is

00:07:53.199 --> 00:08:00.879
still packed to the rafters with Robo wuss it's not entirely clear how well

00:07:58.199 --> 00:08:05.319
enforced these new rules will be open AI has likewise silently deleted language

00:08:03.039 --> 00:08:10.080
from its terms of service Banning military use of chat gbt so I'm

00:08:08.680 --> 00:08:14.759
personally looking forward to this November when an AI powerered hatsun

00:08:12.440 --> 00:08:19.680
Miku gets voted into the White House in a l slide and immediately declares war

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

00:08:23.199 --> 00:08:30.159
huh that's who name Dell's pretty cool cam memory technology they announced a

00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:34.279
few years ago was adop Ed as a new standard by the jedc solid state

00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:40.360
technology Association last month under the name LP cam 2 and modules were

00:08:37.599 --> 00:08:45.720
unveiled by Micron last week the new standard allows for the benefits of

00:08:42.240 --> 00:08:47.640
faster lpddr memory without soldering it

00:08:45.720 --> 00:08:52.800
directly to the motherboard and it requires much less space than the

00:08:49.800 --> 00:08:55.360
existing sodim standard I feel bad for

00:08:52.800 --> 00:08:59.600
sodim being replaced but it kind of had it coming with a name like that

00:08:56.920 --> 00:09:03.680
Executives of Fujitsu have fin finally acknowledged that the company should

00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:08.760
help compensate the victims of the British post office Scandal where over

00:09:06.160 --> 00:09:14.519
900 Postal Service contractors were falsely charged with theft and fraud

00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:17.600
between 1999 and 2015 due to errors

00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:19.880
caused by the buggy Fujitsu accounting

00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:24.240
software Fujitsu has also admitted that the company knew the software was

00:09:21.640 --> 00:09:29.279
defective even as it helped the Royal Male prosecute hundreds of innocent

00:09:26.800 --> 00:09:34.200
people leading to imprisonment bankr repy and at least four suicides postal

00:09:32.440 --> 00:09:38.640
workers traditionally hold a place of trust and respect in British society and

00:09:36.279 --> 00:09:43.000
many children grew up watching classic stopmotion cartoon Postman Pat little

00:09:41.560 --> 00:09:46.880
did they know that the show would end with poor Pat doing hard time after he

00:09:45.160 --> 00:09:50.680
gets framed for high crimes and misdemeanors by a malfunctioning

00:09:48.600 --> 00:09:56.120
computer I had never heard of this story before today and it's wild non-profit

00:09:53.480 --> 00:10:01.560
organization fairly trained has launched a new certification program for AI model

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

00:10:08.839 --> 00:10:15.279
xvp for audio Ed Newton Rex cool name

00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:19.600
who reportedly left the company over concerns that they were exploiting

00:10:17.160 --> 00:10:24.360
creators in order to acquire the Fairly trained stamp of approval generative AI

00:10:21.920 --> 00:10:28.399
models must have clear permission to use all of the copyrighted material they're

00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:32.360
trained on wow now if only we had some way to tell which Jon models are

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

00:10:35.680 --> 00:10:42.000
Serious XM podcast and co-hosting it

00:10:38.839 --> 00:10:44.800
with an AI because of course he is will.

00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:49.399
i.m is so 3008 that he has already transcended

00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:54.079
mortal concerns like how to spell names without periods in the middle of them

00:10:51.360 --> 00:11:01.320
naturally his AI co-host name is spelled QD period Pi but pronounced cutipie

00:10:58.680 --> 00:11:07.120
again of course the AI is powered by Williams AI app FYI which stands for

00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:13.680
Focus your ideas what tremendous advice from the

00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:16.600
writer of the 2005 Masterpiece My

00:11:13.680 --> 00:11:20.120
Humps and you better write a comment promising to come back on Friday for

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

00:11:24.399 --> 00:11:31.560
there's no AI here um there isn't m
