WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.280 Oh, hey, I got your order, I tech news here. 00:00:04.280 --> 00:00:07.360 Would you mind if I just, can you just close the door? 00:00:07.360 --> 00:00:10.400 Just so I can take a photo, just quick, just close the door. Okay, thank you. 00:00:14.280 --> 00:00:17.920 So is that, is that how things are delivered now for anyone else? Cause it's weird. 00:00:17.920 --> 00:00:22.880 Anyway, tech news. Apple is planning some revolutionary changes to iPhone 00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:26.880 according to the latest newsletter from he who seeeth all apples, 00:00:26.920 --> 00:00:30.160 Bloomberg's Mark of House Germeides. 00:00:30.160 --> 00:00:34.480 At Apple's September event, we're going to get the iPhone 17 Air. 00:00:34.480 --> 00:00:39.800 The super, super slim device, German says is meant to replace the iPhone 16 Plus. 00:00:39.800 --> 00:00:44.160 In exchange for its increased risk of bending, you'll get less battery life, 00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:47.560 only a single rear camera and no SIM card slot, 00:00:47.560 --> 00:00:50.960 even outside the US. You know, life comes with trade-offs. 00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:53.960 Thankfully, September's event will reportedly also feature 00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:58.920 just our regular iPhone 17, 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, 00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:01.960 although I predict even the most normy Apple fans 00:01:01.960 --> 00:01:05.440 will still be side-eyeing the slim one. That's probably worse, 00:01:05.440 --> 00:01:09.040 but what if they're the first of their friends to get it? 00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:12.120 But 2026 is when things get interesting 00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:17.120 with the iPhone 18 fold. In case the name had you stumped that one's going to compete 00:01:17.120 --> 00:01:21.260 with the various other foldable phones, finally giving the Apple stands an option. 00:01:21.260 --> 00:01:26.820 And then in 2027, 20 years after the launch of the first iPhone, 00:01:26.820 --> 00:01:31.780 we're getting a special curved glass iPhone, which previous rumors have described 00:01:31.780 --> 00:01:37.420 as having potentially no ports at all. Just a smooth, unbroken surface. 00:01:37.420 --> 00:01:40.660 Like how Kindles look under their tiny designer shorts. 00:01:40.660 --> 00:01:45.900 Just like Asrock's revolutionary 12-volt high-power GPU cable update, 00:01:45.900 --> 00:01:50.860 which is a segue that made sense before I edited this script. Ploof helped me write it because he is a saint. 00:01:50.940 --> 00:01:55.380 And so is Asrock, not only for making the 90 degree connector, 00:01:55.380 --> 00:01:59.900 dozens of you might have been asking for, but for making the pins light green 00:01:59.900 --> 00:02:03.620 so you can easily tell if it's fully inserted into your GPU 00:02:03.620 --> 00:02:07.180 or not, imagine. And if you're still not satisfied, 00:02:07.180 --> 00:02:10.180 there's a nifty little NTC sensor you plug in 00:02:10.180 --> 00:02:13.660 that shuts down your PC if it starts overheating. 00:02:13.660 --> 00:02:16.740 Something that I have to assume just got invented this year 00:02:16.740 --> 00:02:22.100 or why wasn't it in there already? Look at this point, I don't even care if it was NVIDIA who started this whole mess. 00:02:22.100 --> 00:02:27.580 I'm just happy to see somebody trying to fix it, even if they're wasting valuable marketing dollars 00:02:27.580 --> 00:02:31.500 trying to convince you to put stickers on the otherwise blank connector. 00:02:31.500 --> 00:02:35.940 Just some pizzazz. It's okay, I've seen people spend money on stupider things 00:02:35.940 --> 00:02:39.420 like Elon Musk, who says he's starting a new AI company 00:02:39.420 --> 00:02:42.100 called Macro Hard. 00:02:44.700 --> 00:02:47.780 But why? Well, he says it's a tongue-in-cheek name, 00:02:47.780 --> 00:02:52.460 but the project is very real. He's claiming they can simulate everything 00:02:52.460 --> 00:02:56.820 software companies like Microsoft do using AI. 00:02:56.820 --> 00:03:01.340 I've said this before, but Elon claiming that something will happen has been proven 00:03:01.340 --> 00:03:05.180 to be pretty good evidence that it will not. Although here's one exception to that rule, 00:03:05.180 --> 00:03:10.820 Elon has gone through with his threat to have his other very real AI company, XAI, 00:03:10.820 --> 00:03:15.900 sue Apple and OpenAI, who have allegedly colluded to maintain monopolies 00:03:15.900 --> 00:03:21.980 in the smartphone and generative AI markets. Now he's accusing Apple of de-prioritizing Grock 00:03:21.980 --> 00:03:27.340 in favor of OpenAI and chat GPT, and that's the only reason Grock never reached 00:03:27.340 --> 00:03:30.540 the number one AI app spot on Apple's App Store. 00:03:30.540 --> 00:03:35.460 It's definitely nothing to do with Grock identifying as Mecha Hitler very recently. 00:03:35.460 --> 00:03:38.740 It also has nothing to do with today's sponsor. 00:03:38.740 --> 00:03:43.820 What the heck? These are drill bits. I asked you for quick bits. 00:03:43.900 --> 00:03:48.300 God, do I have to do everything around here? That's probably how teachers feel 00:03:48.300 --> 00:03:52.340 when someone suggests arming them to help stop school shootings, 00:03:52.340 --> 00:03:55.940 but someone else had a better idea. Drones. 00:03:55.940 --> 00:04:00.380 Why not slap guns onto those bad boys, huh? And then just fly them into the schools 00:04:00.380 --> 00:04:04.700 during an active shooting. Oh man. Well, that may soon be a reality 00:04:04.700 --> 00:04:08.260 because there's only one governor of one state I can think of that would try this. 00:04:08.260 --> 00:04:11.940 If you guessed Ron DeSantis and Florida, congratulations. 00:04:11.980 --> 00:04:15.460 You win a trip to Alligator Alcatraz. Oh man. 00:04:15.460 --> 00:04:21.420 You can tell Ploof wrote these. Okay. Unfortunately, Florida's not getting a Netflix house. 00:04:21.420 --> 00:04:25.740 Oh man. They've started ticket pre-sales and announced the opening dates 00:04:25.740 --> 00:04:28.740 for the events at Philadelphia on November 12th 00:04:28.740 --> 00:04:33.580 and Dallas, December 11th. These are free to enter experiences, 00:04:33.580 --> 00:04:38.980 spanning over 100,000 square feet that feature their biggest and most successful shows 00:04:38.980 --> 00:04:43.380 like Squid Game and Love is Blind. So it's kind of like Disneyland, 00:04:43.380 --> 00:04:47.820 but you don't pay to get in. Might speak to its quality. 00:04:47.820 --> 00:04:50.980 We'll have to see. Lunch probably is less than $100 though. 00:04:50.980 --> 00:04:55.580 Something you might pay for soon is a quirky new food delivery robot. 00:04:55.580 --> 00:04:58.980 Gee, I really hope all of those laid off compside majors 00:04:58.980 --> 00:05:04.820 aren't looking for gig work in the next couple of years because it looks like Clankers are coming for that too. 00:05:04.820 --> 00:05:09.100 Ploof, you're gonna get us killed by the AI when it takes over. 00:05:09.100 --> 00:05:12.740 Okay, the Robomart RM5 has 10 lockers, 00:05:12.740 --> 00:05:17.780 operates on public roads and carries up to 500 pounds of goods. 00:05:17.780 --> 00:05:22.620 Well, it's got me beat. That's rude to me. 00:05:22.620 --> 00:05:26.480 Too bad it doesn't have NVIDIA's new robot brainpowering it. 00:05:26.480 --> 00:05:29.540 The Jetson AGX Thor Dev Kit 00:05:29.540 --> 00:05:33.500 is now on sale for $3,500 and ships next month. 00:05:33.500 --> 00:05:36.540 Honestly, it sounds like a pretty good business strategy. 00:05:36.540 --> 00:05:40.660 You buy the Dev Kit for thousands, and then once you've prototyped your robot, 00:05:40.660 --> 00:05:43.660 you turn around and buy the Thor T5000 modules 00:05:43.660 --> 00:05:48.500 from NVIDIA for more thousands. But hey, buy in bulk and save some money. 00:05:48.500 --> 00:05:53.780 If you need more than a thousand Thor chips, they'll only cost you 3,000 a pop. 00:05:53.780 --> 00:05:58.540 Do we think that mom and pop shops are buying like fleets of robots or something? 00:05:58.540 --> 00:06:05.180 And on the red team side of things, hardware leaker Momomo leaked their 2026 00:06:05.180 --> 00:06:10.900 and 2027 mobile roadmap. We're getting a Zen 5 refresh called Gorgon Point 00:06:10.900 --> 00:06:14.460 with Strix Point, NPU and graphics in that. 00:06:14.460 --> 00:06:17.780 Desktops will get Zen 6 in 2026, 00:06:17.780 --> 00:06:22.500 but mobile has to wait a bit longer before Gator Range 00:06:22.500 --> 00:06:25.500 and Medusa Point release for the more elite 00:06:25.500 --> 00:06:30.800 and premium laptops seems reasonable, but we'll have to wait for Lisa Sue to confirm. 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:35.900 Oh, I'm getting a fake phone call from Lisa Sue. Hey, Lisa, can you tell me a little bit 00:06:35.900 --> 00:06:40.460 about these mobile processors? Ah, come on, I signed the NDA. 00:06:40.460 --> 00:06:43.540 What do you mean the one I signed five years ago isn't valid anymore? 00:06:43.540 --> 00:06:47.660 You've got my signature, what more could you possibly want? Tech news? 00:06:47.660 --> 00:06:51.180 Well, you'll have to come back on Wednesday for that. 00:06:51.180 --> 00:06:53.300 Or the deal's off. 00:06:55.020 --> 00:06:56.060 It goes for you too.
