Don't worry. We plan for this. It's just like the simulations. This is a simulation. Google seems to have a monster under its bed named ChatGPT. The recent launch of the popular AI chatbot has set off alarms at Google, causing the company to call in its dads for help. Larry Page and Sergey Brin, the founders of Google and controlling shareholders of the parent company Alphabet, have come back to the company after having left their daily roles back in 2019, also known as the Before Times. To do whatever men under 50 with unlimited money can do, which is literally anything. The pair were invited by current CEO Sundar Pichai last month to offer advice and pitch ideas. Google plans to launch over 20 AI products by the end of the year, including a demo version of its search engine with chatbot features. This is very exciting news for the company's AI division, and everyone but the 12,000 people in other departments who are being laid off by Google do allegedly two economic downturn. It's robots. The company is also facing several antitrust lawsuits, which is the opposite of trust from Epic and Match LLC, as well as the US Department of Justice. All this pressure could end up hurting Google bad, especially if Bing can implement chatbot features first, and someone notices. DuckDuckGo has when it just says, turn off your computer. Twitter has officially banned third-party clients, but why should we care about third? Bronze is a subpar metal that went out of style 3,000 years ago. And yet, while that is completely true, Twitter may have not been super upfront about how or why they were doing this. The official Twitter dev account said that the platform was enforcing its long-standing API rules, and then neglected to, you know, name a rule. Then yesterday, Engadget noticed that Twitter had added a clause to the developer agreement that banned the ability to use or access the licensed materials to create or attempt to create a substitute or similar service or product to the Twitter applications. The company that made Twitter-ific, the third-party client that actually coined the term tweet, released a blog post saying that the social platform has become a Twitter that we no longer recognize as trustworthy, or worth coming up with fun colloquialisms for. That's not part of the quota. In a fun coincidence, that same Twitter, now owned by Elon Musk, also known as Buffalo Bill Dodger, is being sued for refusing to pay the consulting firm that assisted in the lawsuit the company launched against Musk when he tried to back out of buying it. That is amazing. I tried coming up with an analogy for the situation, but it's just too wacky. The situation is the joke itself. It befuddles analogies. And the Secure Boot feature on at least 300 MSI motherboards is not working as intended, depending on who's doing the intending. For the uninitiated, I almost said unintended, Secure Boot is a feature in motherboard firmware that ensures PC's only boot software that is trusted by the motherboard manufacturer. However, security researcher David Putaki discovered hundreds of MSI motherboards would let just any old software boot. Motherboards have no standard these days, but don't worry, MSI has responded to the findings and according to them, it's working flawlessly. The manufacturer said they added a second setting called Image Execution Policy that is set to always execute software by default, even though Secure Boot is enabled. They said the default always execute setting is to offer a user-friendly environment, which makes perfect sense. Think of how user-friendly it would be to not have a front door.
