00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,840
We've got an exciting week of tackling for you. There's gonna be excitement, thrills, joy and happiness.

2
00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:10,560
There may also be tech news. Apple's exciting week of announcements kicked off today

3
00:00:10,560 --> 00:00:16,200
as Apple Intelligence is now available in iPhone, iPad and Mac, unless you're in the EU.

4
00:00:16,200 --> 00:00:20,120
But Europeans can access AI on M1 or newer Macs

5
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:23,320
by changing the language to US English on their device.

6
00:00:23,320 --> 00:00:28,560
Europe's favorite flavor of English. Apple has also unveiled new M4-powered iMacs

7
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:32,800
with some nice quality of life updates. For starters, Apple has finally decreed

8
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,280
that 16 gigabytes of memory should be the minimum amount.

9
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:42,000
However, the $1,300 base model still only comes with 256 gigabytes of storage.

10
00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,100
Who needs more than that when you can subscribe to iCloud?

11
00:00:45,100 --> 00:00:48,560
Silly. The screen can be upgraded with a nano-texture glass option,

12
00:00:48,560 --> 00:00:51,680
which goes a step beyond typical anti-glare coating,

13
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:57,200
obviously. The camera has been upgraded to 12 megapixels with support for desk view, which, if you didn't know,

14
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:01,120
allows you to view your desk. On top of that, the 10-core CPU tiers

15
00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:07,160
have four Thunderbolt 4 ports compared to the two Thunderbolt 3 ports on the previous model.

16
00:01:07,160 --> 00:01:12,120
Do you need the most screens? Are you a screen queen? Well, you're in luck because the 10-core iMac models

17
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:15,680
are the first iMacs to support two external displays.

18
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:20,780
Two? And they're on a roll because Apple also released the first Magic Keyboard, Trackpad and mouse

19
00:01:20,780 --> 00:01:24,720
to support USB-C for charging. You're never gonna guess where they put

20
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:28,680
the Magic Mouse as charging port. Yep, it's still down there.

21
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:32,120
And we may have more upcoming hardware to look forward to this week.

22
00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:36,680
According to Mark Gurman, he claims that an upcoming Mac mini redesign will pack an M4

23
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:40,680
while being almost as small as an Apple TV. It could be the perfect travel PC

24
00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:47,240
to make your laptop jealous. You're bringing her? The specs for Ryzen's AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D

25
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:50,240
have allegedly fully leaked, giving us a glimpse

26
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:53,780
into the majesty of third-generation 3D V-Cache.

27
00:01:53,780 --> 00:01:57,240
Give it to daddy, please, and thank you. While there's been no increase to the amount

28
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:03,120
of L3 cache over the current gen, the listed specs state the chip has a free multiplier,

29
00:02:03,120 --> 00:02:07,080
suggesting that unlike its predecessors, traditional overclocking will be available

30
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,260
for the 9800X3D. In addition to the leaked specs,

31
00:02:10,260 --> 00:02:15,480
there have been some leaked pics of the chip bearing it all after being delitted and naughty.

32
00:02:15,480 --> 00:02:21,000
The images reveal that the 3D V-Cache is stacked underneath the Zen 5 CCD,

33
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,280
whereas previous X3D chips have stacked the cache on top of the CCD.

34
00:02:25,280 --> 00:02:29,280
However, we're not quite sure what the benefit of this shift is yet.

35
00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:34,480
Maybe an engineer got bored. We do know that the 9800X3D isn't just for gaming

36
00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:41,360
based on leaked Puget Bench scores that show the chip matching the performance of Intel's Core i7-14700K.

37
00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:47,240
Having said that, the leaked Blender scores show the 14700K obliterating the 9800X3D,

38
00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:54,560
though its singular benchmark was compared to the median score of 103 14700K benchmarks.

39
00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:58,600
Like, would you rather fight 100 Ryles or the average of 100 Ryles?

40
00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:03,400
Lost to think about. In the not too distant future, a cyberpunk sommelier is cracking open a bottle

41
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:07,200
of 2024 QuickBits because the customers ask

42
00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:12,720
for the best vintage they had, and that's us. Google has gotten even worse at stopping Pixel leaks

43
00:03:12,720 --> 00:03:18,080
as now details have gotten out, not just about the Pixel 10, but the Pixel 11 too.

44
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:24,520
The cameras for the phones will apparently finally get 4K 60fps HDR video support thanks to the Tensor G5.

45
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:29,480
But the Pixel 11 may support 100x zoom thanks to machine learning.

46
00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:34,960
There will also be ultra low light video, which will use on-device processing to boost visibility

47
00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:40,000
in lighting conditions as low as five to 10 lux. The same leak also suggests Pixel Watch

48
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,960
could get a Tensor chip, which may be used for always on ML-based health features.

49
00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:49,480
I just wanna skip ahead to when I can easily track how much IP and compare it with friends.

50
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:54,040
We'll call it the Peterboards. Is it by volume or duration of P?

51
00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:59,920
Smallest P hole wins. I Fix It is unsure how Apple fixed the jelly scrolling issue

52
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:04,680
in the new iPad Mini 7. The previous model screen would refresh from right to left

53
00:04:04,680 --> 00:04:10,680
in portrait mode, causing an ugly effect when using device in its morally superior vertical orientation.

54
00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:15,640
While I Fix It thought there would be some clear hardware change that was responsible for the fix,

55
00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:19,720
they couldn't find one in their tear down. Some outlets have suggested that the display controller

56
00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,680
was optimized, but I think it was magic.

57
00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:28,120
Why else do you think Tim Cook looks like a wizard who just shaved? Instagram revealed that video quality is decreased

58
00:04:28,120 --> 00:04:32,200
on less popular videos. Instagram boss Adam Maseri made the admission

59
00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:36,520
in a video AMA on the platform saying that after a video isn't viewed for a while,

60
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:40,480
its quality will be cut. But if it gets popular again,

61
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,960
they'll give it the glow up it deserves. Maseri claims this doesn't make it harder

62
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:48,040
for small creators to compete, saying that the quality drop isn't huge

63
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,640
and interaction is based on video content rather than its quality.

64
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,200
I wholeheartedly agree. It's what's inside the video that makes it big.

65
00:04:56,200 --> 00:05:00,920
Usually butts or feet. Over 30,000 clinicians and 40 different health systems

66
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:05,320
are using an automatic transcription tool from NABLA powered by OpenAI's Whisper

67
00:05:05,320 --> 00:05:09,000
despite OpenAI's warning that it should not be used

68
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:12,480
in high-risk domains or decision-making contexts.

69
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,900
According to researchers, Whisper hallucinates in around 1% of transcripts

70
00:05:16,900 --> 00:05:20,020
and sometimes completely fabricates whole sentences

71
00:05:20,020 --> 00:05:26,620
and inserts them into silent sections of the tape, including violent sentiments, sexual innuendo,

72
00:05:26,620 --> 00:05:30,380
and nonsensical gibberish jabberla. This could all have serious implications

73
00:05:30,380 --> 00:05:35,100
if the transcript becomes part of the official record of a trial or medical assessment.

74
00:05:35,100 --> 00:05:39,820
Ah, yes, it seems that Mr. Jones reported symptoms of acid reflux and a desire

75
00:05:39,820 --> 00:05:43,860
to overthrow the legitimate government of Spain. And popular fitness app Strava

76
00:05:43,860 --> 00:05:49,400
has accidentally created a potentially serious security loophole that allows several world leaders

77
00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:52,560
to be tracked via the app because their bodyguards are recording

78
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:58,160
and publicly posting their runs. French newspaper Le Monde was able to discover

79
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:01,280
a private holiday taken by President Emmanuel Macron

80
00:06:01,280 --> 00:06:06,320
right down to the resort he was staying at thanks to his bodyguards geotagged humblebrags.

81
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:10,520
You have one job. It's not just Macron though. It's also Vladimir Putin, Kamala Harris,

82
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:15,000
not to mention Joe Biden, Donald Trump, and both of their wives. So to all the world's bodyguards,

83
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:18,560
we're super impressed by the Ryzen grind but please set your account to private

84
00:06:18,560 --> 00:06:22,960
before your PR gets your boss whacked. And you'd be whacked out of your mind

85
00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:27,000
if you didn't come back on Wednesday for more tech news. You have time, Duncan.

86
00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,040
We all know. Yeah, Duncan. Duncan.
