WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:07.360 Okay, hey, hey, I just finished watching all the Andorre episodes for this week, so so yeah here in it made me cry 00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:13.360 Here's tech news Microsoft is giving another shot at rolling out Windows Recall the AI feature 00:00:13.600 --> 00:00:21.040 Exclusive to co-pilot plus PCs that records everything you do and inspired huge backlash over security and privacy concerns 00:00:21.040 --> 00:00:27.960 When it was first announced Microsoft eventually recalled recall, but it's been nearly a year and I mean 00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:33.680 You guys forgot all about that, right? So I'm just gonna slip this in here. Let me slip this into your system 00:00:33.680 --> 00:00:36.880 Just don't worry about it. Yeah, don't mind me to be clear 00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:41.640 If you don't have a new co-pilot plus laptop with an NPU in it 00:00:41.640 --> 00:00:46.560 You're not gonna get this feature and Microsoft has tried to make it very secure 00:00:46.560 --> 00:00:52.960 It's opt-in has various filtering options requires you to encrypt your data and unlock it with Windows 00:00:52.960 --> 00:01:00.040 Hello, and they say it's processed entirely locally and not shared with Microsoft or anyone else, but 00:01:00.680 --> 00:01:05.640 Some think recall can never be properly secure because did you think about other people? 00:01:06.200 --> 00:01:09.880 Sending sensitive info to a person with a recall laptop 00:01:09.880 --> 00:01:17.440 Even if it's deleted on the laptop it could live on as a recall snapshot and then get stolen by a hacker who dupes 00:01:17.440 --> 00:01:20.440 Windows Hello using a 3d printed replica of your face 00:01:20.440 --> 00:01:23.400 I told you you shouldn't have posted the model on printables.com 00:01:24.040 --> 00:01:31.840 Thankfully recall apparently can be completely uninstalled something. I still don't entirely believe but in the same update 00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:37.000 Microsoft is also rolling out the AI powered improved Windows search and 00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:42.920 Click to do which will let you hold the Windows key and click to see contextual actions 00:01:42.920 --> 00:01:47.080 You can take depending on the content of your screen. It's like a right click, but 00:01:47.400 --> 00:01:53.880 Um, it's a right click, but Microsoft giveth and take it away. You're getting new AI features 00:01:53.880 --> 00:01:57.240 But Microsoft is killing Windows Maps. Oh 00:01:58.080 --> 00:02:04.600 No, don't worry Bing Maps is alive and well. Hello. No, no, no, no, no, no 00:02:04.720 --> 00:02:12.280 It's not just open AI everybody wants to buy Chrome during Google's search antitrust remedies trial 00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:20.360 Yahoo search exec Brian provost testified that his company is totally down to acquire Chrome the value of which he 00:02:20.520 --> 00:02:26.480 Estimated at tens of billions of dollars and that's a sum that he claims Yahoo can procure 00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:33.100 possibly through methods involving the occult or 3d printed face masks at a AI search company 00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:39.840 Perplexity meanwhile would actually prefer that Google keep Chrome rather than sell it to someone like open AI 00:02:40.000 --> 00:02:43.640 Who already expressed their interest, but if a sale is forced 00:02:44.040 --> 00:02:48.020 Then sure perplexity would also like to buy one Chrome, please 00:02:48.040 --> 00:02:56.720 It would work well with their CEO Erivin Srinivas's plan to build a browser with even more user tracking to enable 00:02:57.720 --> 00:03:05.080 hyper-personalized ads He knows users don't like ads, but they haven't even experienced ads that know what you dreamt about last night 00:03:05.080 --> 00:03:12.520 Don't knock it till you try it Srinivas made the comment on a podcast with two finance bros who look like they start each day with 00:03:12.600 --> 00:03:19.000 Smoothies made from cocaine and season one of succession. They don't sprinkle in any media literacy. It makes it taste worse 00:03:19.360 --> 00:03:24.360 Perplexity's real problem with Google isn't Chrome though. It's their restrictive policies 00:03:24.760 --> 00:03:30.820 Perplexity's app will be pre-loaded on Motorola's phones including the new lineup of razor folding phones 00:03:30.820 --> 00:03:37.900 But it won't be the default assistant because Google allegedly wouldn't let that be anything but Gemini 00:03:38.060 --> 00:03:40.940 Which doesn't have ads yet, but when it does 00:03:41.460 --> 00:03:44.180 They're gonna be medium personalized at best 00:03:44.580 --> 00:03:49.740 YouTube is doing what they do best and experimenting with new ways to make their platform worse 00:03:49.900 --> 00:03:53.340 Some users have reported seeing a new video player UI 00:03:53.820 --> 00:04:00.860 Complete with glitched out elements now some of these screenshots are from systems that clearly have some YouTube altering 00:04:00.980 --> 00:04:07.340 Extension installed so I'm not sure how worrisome this is. I'd prefer to worry about our sponsor 00:04:07.340 --> 00:04:12.260 No, just kidding not yet I'd prefer to worry about Google testing a YouTube version of AI 00:04:12.620 --> 00:04:17.620 Overviews a YouTube blog post says they're testing a new video results carousel 00:04:18.060 --> 00:04:25.420 For some premium subscribers in the US which will use AI to highlight specific clips from videos relevant to your search 00:04:25.420 --> 00:04:32.620 Now however that plays out Google will probably tell investors that it went great in their Q1 financial results 00:04:32.620 --> 00:04:39.220 The tech giant bragged that AI Overviews in search have 1.5 billion users per month 00:04:39.460 --> 00:04:46.860 Proving you too can successfully grow a user base if you make your new service something people have to scroll past in order to use your old 00:04:46.900 --> 00:04:54.620 Service developers pay attention these quick bits aren't as good as and or almost nothing is and I have to be okay with that 00:04:54.980 --> 00:05:00.300 Gigabyte has responded to reports from a small number of users who noticed some kind of gel 00:05:00.820 --> 00:05:09.060 oozing out from their RTX 50 series GPUs the company admitted that for some early production batches of their graphics cards 00:05:09.420 --> 00:05:18.580 someone in the factory May have added a bit too much of the specially formulated thermal gel that's used in place of thermal pads 00:05:18.580 --> 00:05:22.980 It shouldn't affect the performance of the card. It's just you know, someone thought hey 00:05:23.580 --> 00:05:28.580 Might as well put some extra gel in there You know don't tell me you've never gotten a bit excited about gel 00:05:28.900 --> 00:05:32.620 pre-orders for the Nintendo switch to went live this week and they were 00:05:33.220 --> 00:05:39.780 Predictably a bit of a gong show with store sites buckling under the weight of hordes of handheld gamers 00:05:40.220 --> 00:05:46.820 Mashing f5 to get their orders in and they have stronger than average fingers despite Nintendo's strict requirements for pre-ordering 00:05:47.220 --> 00:05:50.380 Reports of pre-order scalping have already emerged 00:05:50.380 --> 00:05:55.220 So watch out for those listings and also watch out for switch to game cards 00:05:55.860 --> 00:06:01.180 Pretending to be a game card when really they're a game key card that just lets you download the game 00:06:01.780 --> 00:06:05.460 Apparently most third-party switch to games will be like that 00:06:06.260 --> 00:06:13.860 Aka There'll be liars Meta has announced that they'll be cracking down on spammy content on Facebook and 00:06:14.260 --> 00:06:18.700 Reducing monetization and reach for that kind of stuff on the platform 00:06:18.700 --> 00:06:22.100 And you know, they're not sure how or why that stuff got on there 00:06:22.100 --> 00:06:28.620 It's certainly not because Facebook themselves have heavily incentivized the flooding of their own platform with AI slop 00:06:28.620 --> 00:06:33.100 It can't be that but however it got there they are putting their foot down 00:06:33.100 --> 00:06:39.180 This stuff's got to go and we all agree on that and the slate truck is an entirely American made 00:06:39.660 --> 00:06:44.540 Compact electric modular vehicle with no stereo and a price of 00:06:45.380 --> 00:06:53.220 $20,000 after federal EV rebates making it perfectly designed to address multiple issues plaguing the current economy 00:06:53.220 --> 00:06:59.580 It's actually weirding me out a little bit slate auto did some gorilla marketing with the slate truck to demonstrate 00:06:59.580 --> 00:07:06.980 How its minimalistic gray body can be almost endlessly customized, but they're not selling these outside of the US and now 00:07:07.020 --> 00:07:13.700 I'm okay with Canada being the 51st state. Can we get that rolling actually? I'm just kidding. I'm just get I'm just kidding 00:07:13.700 --> 00:07:16.260 Geez, it's like you can't even make jokes anymore 00:07:16.780 --> 00:07:20.780 Put on a tariff as a prank and even when you take it off and then put on another one 00:07:20.780 --> 00:07:22.780 They everyone's like hey stop and it's like geez 00:07:23.980 --> 00:07:25.980 Anyway more tech news on Monday see you then
