1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,960
It's officially been zero days since we've had an issue with our YouTube channel.

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:08,040
Why don't we celebrate by talking about other people's tech problems?

3
00:00:08,040 --> 00:00:11,700
Don't look at me. Next garage door openers have a serious vulnerability

4
00:00:11,700 --> 00:00:15,920
that means that their doors can be opened and controlled remotely.

5
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:21,280
And by remotely, we mean from literally anywhere on the planet by anyone with internet access.

6
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:27,080
The bug apparently also exposes device IDs, hopefully linked to name and email addresses

7
00:00:27,080 --> 00:00:32,780
associated with the account. Details on the attack method have been left purposely vague

8
00:00:32,780 --> 00:00:37,860
because Next has yet to respond. Despite the security researcher who found the vulnerability

9
00:00:37,860 --> 00:00:41,540
reaching out to the company repeatedly since January,

10
00:00:41,540 --> 00:00:44,780
Next has likewise refused to reply to questions

11
00:00:44,780 --> 00:00:48,140
from the US Department of Homeland Security. And I didn't even know you could do that

12
00:00:48,140 --> 00:00:52,260
without getting arrested. They just don't have an email because then people could hack their garage doors.

13
00:00:52,260 --> 00:00:55,780
Homeland Security slides into your DMs and you're like, new phone, who dis?

14
00:00:55,780 --> 00:01:02,620
The same vulnerability works on other Next products too, which include smart wall plugs and alarm systems.

15
00:01:02,620 --> 00:01:05,700
That might not sound very smart to you, but it's like jazz.

16
00:01:05,700 --> 00:01:08,820
It's all about the homes you don't pretend. I think Miles Davis said that.

17
00:01:08,820 --> 00:01:12,780
Kilometers, Davis, for camera. Samsung Semiconductor has asked staff

18
00:01:12,780 --> 00:01:17,440
to stop using chat GPT less than a month after it first granted them access

19
00:01:17,440 --> 00:01:20,540
because their fab engineers apparently cannot be trusted

20
00:01:20,540 --> 00:01:25,180
to not give it proprietary data. Believe it or not, but chat bots on the internet

21
00:01:25,180 --> 00:01:29,380
store information you give them and you should not share confidential internal documents

22
00:01:29,380 --> 00:01:32,400
and source code from your job at the semiconductor factory,

23
00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:36,540
no matter how tempting it may be. In a matter of weeks, Samsung linked chat GPT

24
00:01:36,540 --> 00:01:41,020
to at least three separate leaks. It's like telling your least trustworthy coworker

25
00:01:41,020 --> 00:01:44,500
about your last doctor's appointment. You might as well just announce your test results

26
00:01:44,500 --> 00:01:48,900
to the whole break room. Samsung plans to develop its own AI for internal use,

27
00:01:48,900 --> 00:01:54,300
which will hopefully contain the problem. It's not clear to what degree, if any, open AI

28
00:01:54,340 --> 00:01:59,260
might be legally responsible for information chat GPT retains and reveals,

29
00:01:59,260 --> 00:02:05,580
but a recent legal suit might determine open AI's responsibility for the reliability of its output.

30
00:02:05,580 --> 00:02:08,940
An Australian mayor is suing open AI for defamation

31
00:02:08,940 --> 00:02:12,100
after chat GPT claimed he was facing charges

32
00:02:12,100 --> 00:02:16,020
in a foreign bribery scandal, when in fact, he was the whistleblower

33
00:02:16,020 --> 00:02:19,100
who brought the scandal to light. These errors are what are known

34
00:02:19,100 --> 00:02:24,300
in the field of artificial intelligence as a bit of a whoopsie daisy, so hot now.

35
00:02:24,300 --> 00:02:27,980
TikTok has been fined 12.7 million pounds

36
00:02:27,980 --> 00:02:31,300
for potentially tracking and profiling children.

37
00:02:31,300 --> 00:02:35,940
An estimated 1.4 million UK children, also known as lads and lasses,

38
00:02:35,940 --> 00:02:39,620
under the age of 13, used TikTok in 2020,

39
00:02:39,620 --> 00:02:45,820
which, when you do the math, comes out to a fine of around nine quid per child.

40
00:02:45,820 --> 00:02:49,980
Just enough money to take your 12-year-old out for a bangers and mash while you explain to them

41
00:02:49,980 --> 00:02:54,140
that the rest of their life will be spent under a regime of increasingly invasive mass surveillance.

42
00:02:54,140 --> 00:02:58,740
Not under London's prices. TikTok claims to have put significant resources

43
00:02:58,740 --> 00:03:02,220
into preventing children from inappropriately accessing the app.

44
00:03:02,220 --> 00:03:06,860
But according to regulators, it wasn't enough because they're children and you're not supposed

45
00:03:06,860 --> 00:03:10,620
to spy on them. Hopefully, bike dance will be able to scrounge up

46
00:03:10,620 --> 00:03:16,100
the 12.7 million pounds somewhere in their $80 billion revenue they made in 2022.

47
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:20,140
I guess we'll see. I didn't choose to do the quick bits because it's easy.

48
00:03:20,140 --> 00:03:24,140
It's actually really hard, but no one will let me stop.

49
00:03:24,140 --> 00:03:30,060
I'm wearing an ankle brace. Get back to work. Intel has reportedly placed a large order with TSMC

50
00:03:30,060 --> 00:03:33,620
for production of its next-gen battle-maids GPUs.

51
00:03:33,620 --> 00:03:37,980
This not only means that TSMC is producing chips for all three major graphic card brands,

52
00:03:37,980 --> 00:03:42,740
it also means that there will probably be a second generation of Intel graphics cards,

53
00:03:42,740 --> 00:03:46,420
which wasn't a for-sure thing. We did it. Celestial, we still don't know.

54
00:03:46,420 --> 00:03:52,260
Daybreak, the company that runs EverQuest 2, has retracted an upcoming pay-to-raid feature

55
00:03:52,260 --> 00:03:55,620
only two weeks after its announcement due to backlash from players.

56
00:03:55,620 --> 00:04:01,280
The new system would have introduced, drum roll please, loot boxes containing an item to reset

57
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:06,620
the 18-hour cooldown for bosses. Unfortunately for Daybreak, one thing that has no cooldown,

58
00:04:06,620 --> 00:04:09,900
but does have area of effect damage, is Gamer Rage,

59
00:04:09,900 --> 00:04:14,660
especially EverQuest 2 gamers who are still playing 19 years after launch.

60
00:04:14,660 --> 00:04:19,980
Seriously, when you're an MML with fewer than 30,000 active monthly players, you should cherish

61
00:04:19,980 --> 00:04:23,180
each and every one of them. Looking at you, Jerry. Jerry?

62
00:04:23,180 --> 00:04:27,380
Probably one of them. VR may not be as cool as Mark Zuckerberg hoped.

63
00:04:27,380 --> 00:04:32,480
In a recent survey of American teenagers, only 29% said they owned a VR device,

64
00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:37,980
with only 4% saying they use VR daily. And it's totally for homework.

65
00:04:37,980 --> 00:04:41,820
Don't get weird. Now that's inside out tracking. Oh God.

66
00:04:41,820 --> 00:04:46,500
Some are speculating this means VR hasn't caught on as well as smartphones.

67
00:04:46,500 --> 00:04:51,580
You know, the miniature computer slash communication device that fits in your pocket and works without having

68
00:04:51,580 --> 00:04:55,820
to be strapped to your face? Do you really need to call thousands of teenagers

69
00:04:55,820 --> 00:04:58,900
to figure that out? James, why are you talking to teenagers?

70
00:04:58,900 --> 00:05:02,420
Who calls teenagers, you know? You text them, and they leave you on red.

71
00:05:02,420 --> 00:05:06,980
You better have a blue bubble. Monument and Tempest, two US companies that offer support

72
00:05:06,980 --> 00:05:12,180
to patients struggling with alcohol addiction, have admitted to sharing private patient information

73
00:05:12,180 --> 00:05:15,300
with advertisers. It seems like only last month we talked about

74
00:05:15,300 --> 00:05:19,540
a different private mental health care service doing the same thing.

75
00:05:19,540 --> 00:05:23,040
Because it was. The first step is admitting you have a problem,

76
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:28,580
Monument and Tempest, but the zeroth step is not leaking patient information.

77
00:05:28,580 --> 00:05:34,700
The makers of Monster Energy Drink are suing an indie game developer for using the word monster

78
00:05:34,700 --> 00:05:38,460
in the title of a game. Apparently under the mistaken impression

79
00:05:38,460 --> 00:05:43,100
that you can own a word that entered the English lexicon in the early 14th century.

80
00:05:43,100 --> 00:05:46,940
In 2020, Ubisoft apparently renamed its game,

81
00:05:46,940 --> 00:05:51,540
Gods and Monsters, to Immortals Phoenix Rising, a much, much worse name,

82
00:05:51,540 --> 00:05:55,540
after a similar dispute with Monster. Now Monster's going after small developer,

83
00:05:55,540 --> 00:05:59,860
Glowstick Entertainment, and what kind of large, frightening, fantastical creature

84
00:05:59,860 --> 00:06:03,300
would do something like that? You'd have to be a. Not video Kojima.

85
00:06:03,300 --> 00:06:06,860
And why would you do something like not come back here on Friday for more tech news?

86
00:06:06,860 --> 00:06:10,340
You wouldn't, would you? You wouldn't do that to me, right?

87
00:06:11,300 --> 00:06:12,140
Jerry?
