WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.020 See, I knew you'd be back for more tech news. Didn't I say they'd be back? 00:00:03.020 --> 00:00:06.480 Yeah, yeah. I totally called it. You love tech news. You're obsessed. 00:00:06.480 --> 00:00:12.900 A prominent leaker claims AMD is preparing a 32 Gigabyte version of its Radeon RX9070, 00:00:12.900 --> 00:00:17.780 which is my favorite name, XT. Which some may remember as the graphics card AMD 00:00:17.780 --> 00:00:20.940 tried to announce at CES before metaphorically 00:00:20.940 --> 00:00:24.060 tackling itself off the stage. It hurt itself and it's confusing. 00:00:24.060 --> 00:00:27.580 The leaker who goes by Zheng Zheng Zhao 00:00:27.620 --> 00:00:31.340 said on the ChipHell forums that the 32 Gigabyte 00:00:31.340 --> 00:00:37.340 9070 XT will launch this year, sometime after the vanilla 9070 series. 00:00:37.340 --> 00:00:43.820 Which are expected to feature 16 gigabytes of VRM and a possible MSRP of 600 to 700 US dollars, 00:00:43.820 --> 00:00:48.260 which that's just nothing compared to what we're used to, according to recently leaked retailer listings. 00:00:48.260 --> 00:00:51.620 But that's converted from Canadian dollars, which are notoriously untrustworthy. 00:00:51.620 --> 00:00:58.100 Shifting. The leaks coincide with rumors of NVIDIA delaying the launch of its RX5070, non-TI, 00:00:58.100 --> 00:01:02.100 from February to early March. Possibly to mess around with the launch 00:01:02.100 --> 00:01:07.140 of the RX9070 and 9070 XT. If the 5070 launches anything like the 5080 00:01:07.140 --> 00:01:10.500 and 5090 launches, hardly anyone will actually get cards, 00:01:10.500 --> 00:01:14.500 but I'm glad NVIDIA is having fun just messing with them. You know what else I feel is fun? 00:01:14.500 --> 00:01:18.500 Trying to figure out why GPU connectors are melting. 00:01:18.500 --> 00:01:24.060 Again, the redditor that first reported melting issues with his 5090 sent his damaged 12 volt 00:01:24.060 --> 00:01:29.620 high power cable to YouTuber Der Bauer, who not only observed temperatures that were too damn high, 00:01:29.620 --> 00:01:36.200 but also uneven power distribution among the cable's individual wires on both the damaged cable and his own. 00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:42.660 As other more different YouTuber Buildzoid points out, this may be due to the way that the RTX 4090 and 5090 00:01:42.660 --> 00:01:47.660 detect and distribute power. It's different from the 3090 in that it's worse. 00:01:47.660 --> 00:01:51.360 Further complicating things, the manufacturer of the redditor's third party cable 00:01:51.360 --> 00:01:56.840 that melted, Maud DIY, just published guidance recommending RTX 5090 owners 00:01:56.840 --> 00:02:00.360 only use newer 12 volt two by six cables, 00:02:00.360 --> 00:02:04.440 which have significant enhancements over 12 volt high power cables. 00:02:04.440 --> 00:02:07.920 But that contradicts guidance from companies like Corsair and Cisonic, 00:02:07.920 --> 00:02:14.360 which claims the only difference is in the GPU and power supply sockets, not the cables themselves. 00:02:14.360 --> 00:02:17.360 Now everyone's looking into it. PC integrator Falcon Northwest says 00:02:17.360 --> 00:02:21.080 they can't reproduce the issue, but news site Dark Side of Gaming just checked 00:02:21.120 --> 00:02:26.360 their 4090 and found a melted cable after two years of having it run just fine. 00:02:26.360 --> 00:02:30.040 Well, this has certainly been a wake up call. I'm gonna start regularly checking to see 00:02:30.040 --> 00:02:35.200 if any of my parts have been melting. Doctors recommend some parts melt faster than others. 00:02:35.200 --> 00:02:39.960 What is this earwax on my shirt? What many are calling the first major AI copyright case 00:02:39.960 --> 00:02:45.040 has been decided with media tech conglomerate Thomson Reuters winning the lawsuit it filed 00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:48.600 against the AI startup Ross Intelligence back in 2020. 00:02:48.600 --> 00:02:52.200 Now you might be thinking, hey, that's pre-chat GBT, 00:02:52.200 --> 00:02:55.960 which was the first AI thing ever. And honestly, you might be right 00:02:55.960 --> 00:02:59.560 because what does the AI even mean anymore? You tell me. It's a sandwich. 00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:04.360 Anyway, Ross used thousands of legal summaries obtained from Thomson Reuters' Westlaw database 00:03:04.360 --> 00:03:11.040 to train an AI system and a judge ruled that behavior was not protected by a fair use defense. 00:03:11.040 --> 00:03:16.040 Critically, however, as mentioned in the ruling, this AI was not generative AI. 00:03:16.040 --> 00:03:21.520 When prompted, it didn't write anything new, it just surfaced existing material that it was trained on. 00:03:21.520 --> 00:03:24.840 So it's less chat GBT and more old Google 00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:29.800 before it told you to eat rocks. So despite the headlines, it's unclear how useful 00:03:29.800 --> 00:03:34.280 this ruling will be as a precedent for the various generative AI copyright cases 00:03:34.280 --> 00:03:37.360 currently in the pipe. Until that's decided, you might as well try 00:03:37.360 --> 00:03:40.400 Adobe's newly available Firefly video generator. 00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:44.160 Riley did, and he ended up with these horrifying nightmare versions of himself. 00:03:44.160 --> 00:03:48.280 Personally, I think that one's cute. Yay, I didn't want to sleep anyway. 00:03:48.280 --> 00:03:52.800 Not satisfied, huh? Typical tech news for you. You can't get enough. 00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:56.920 Here's some quick bits. Apple has launched the Apple TV app for Android mobile devices, 00:03:56.920 --> 00:03:59.920 so Android users can finally subscribe to Apple TV Plus 00:03:59.920 --> 00:04:04.200 and watch the best show ever made, Severance. Right, right, I'm right. 00:04:04.200 --> 00:04:08.980 Apple is also finally allowing users to migrate their purchased movies, music, apps, 00:04:08.980 --> 00:04:12.520 or other content from one account to another primary account, 00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:16.880 something Apple fans have wanted forever. Two great moves from Apple. 00:04:16.880 --> 00:04:21.360 There's been no mention of EU involvement, but I feel like they're probably just standing off-screen 00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:25.720 with a knife. Think about your users, or else. 00:04:25.720 --> 00:04:29.280 Great news for anyone who doesn't prefer to empty their savings account on a phone. 00:04:29.280 --> 00:04:33.920 Apple has reportedly delayed the launch of its newest iPhone SE model to next week. 00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:38.760 Google Pixel's 9A has been thoroughly leaked showing a barely there camera bump 00:04:38.760 --> 00:04:45.360 and an expected launch date of March 19, and the Samsung Galaxy A56 5G apparently looks like this, 00:04:45.360 --> 00:04:49.520 and should also be coming very soon. If renders from EV leaks are accurate. 00:04:49.520 --> 00:04:53.200 But between you and me, the phone you have right now is probably fine. 00:04:53.200 --> 00:04:56.680 But what are you telling them? What are you saying? That's good enough. James. 00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:01.560 By the time you look at these photos, you'll have bad eyes. People need to keep stimulating the economy. 00:05:01.560 --> 00:05:04.760 Google Maps has officially relabeled the Gulf of Mexico 00:05:04.760 --> 00:05:10.520 to the Gulf of America for US users. Mexicans will still see Gulf of Mexico 00:05:10.520 --> 00:05:14.520 while the rest of the world will have to see both and decide for themselves. 00:05:14.520 --> 00:05:18.360 Bing Maps tried its best to join the party, but could only manage to label it 00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:23.880 the Gulf of Mexico two times. Eventually it got in line though, along with Apple Maps. 00:05:23.880 --> 00:05:28.300 I mean, you don't want to end up like the Associated Press, which got barred from the White House briefings 00:05:28.300 --> 00:05:31.760 because it didn't report things the right way, do ya? 00:05:31.760 --> 00:05:35.860 And some Jeep owners have reported seeing an ad for extended warranty coverage 00:05:35.860 --> 00:05:39.440 on their vehicle's infotainment display every time they stop, 00:05:39.440 --> 00:05:43.480 proving that even if you go on a drive to have a little thinky time for yourself, 00:05:43.480 --> 00:05:47.680 there's no escape from in-s**tification. Jeep parent company, Salantis, 00:05:47.680 --> 00:05:51.760 says that the ads are actually a glitch and they're working on fixing it. 00:05:51.760 --> 00:05:55.880 See, a full screen out in your car while you're driving just accidentally manifested itself 00:05:55.880 --> 00:05:58.920 and the code, these things happen. AI is crazy. 00:05:58.920 --> 00:06:03.640 They do have notoriously s**t infotainment. Now, make sure you come back on Friday for more tech news. 00:06:03.640 --> 00:06:06.960 We all know how you get when you don't get your fix. Nobody wants to see that. 00:06:06.960 --> 00:06:11.000 It's rough. Come get your fix with the James Riley mix. So where the f**k you at, punk? 00:06:11.000 --> 00:06:12.200 Shut the f**k up!
