00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,840
Hello, welcome to Apple Park.

2
00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:08,520
Yesterday, we announced the most exciting product we've ever made.

3
00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:13,000
Big Pants. Big Pants.

4
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:21,200
Next, we introduced the iPhone Air, the most anxiety inducing iPhone we've ever made.

5
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:29,680
It's just 5.6 millimeters thin, except where we smooshed all the electronics into the camera plateau.

6
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:36,400
We thought about calling it the camera ledge, but didn't want to give the iPhone factory workers any ideas.

7
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:45,360
Yesterday, we mentioned that despite being as thin as my patience for insolence, the iPhone Air has all day battery life.

8
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:52,200
We then immediately announced a magnetic iPhone Air exclusive battery pack, for no reason.

9
00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:57,720
At the heart of the iPhone Air is the brand new A19 Pro chip.

10
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:10,600
The same one powering our new Pro models. I love using the iPhone Air and using the word same to mean different because it has 5 GPU cores instead of 6.

11
00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:22,560
Ah-ha! Ah-ha-ha-ha-ha! Speaking of pros, we also introduced the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max with a larger camera plateau

12
00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:29,880
in a new stunning orange color that just screams R2-D2 with a spray tan.

13
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:40,200
Looking good, R2. The 17 Pros both have faster charging, better cameras, and support for ProRes RAW and Genlock.

14
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:46,880
So buy your filmmaker mom one. If you have a standard mom, we have the iPhone 17,

15
00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:53,960
which gets to share its upgrades with the rest of the lineup, including 256GB of base storage,

16
00:01:53,960 --> 00:02:02,200
120Hz displays, 3,000 nits of peak brightness, simultaneous front and rear camera video recording,

17
00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:08,520
and the new center stage front camera that can automatically change the landscape mode.

18
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:17,000
So you can keep your other hand where it is. Clicking the buy button on more iPhones for every single one of your moms.

19
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:24,320
While you're at it, buy her the new cross body strap so she can wear her new iPhone like a purse.

20
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,960
Great work. Here's what everything costs.

21
00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:35,800
Oh, and one more thing. The new AirPods Pro 3 have double the active noise cancellation,

22
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:40,240
new heart rate sensors, and support live translation.

23
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:45,400
But not if you're in the EU and your Apple account region is also in the EU.

24
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:54,360
For that place, shall remain a pit of anguish and despair for the regulatory sins of its corrupted and defiled elites.

25
00:02:54,360 --> 00:03:04,040
Oh, and one more thing. Again, Apple Watch Series 11 with 5G, Apple Watch Ultra 3 with texting via satellite,

26
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:07,480
and Apple Watch SE 3.

27
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:08,600
It's cheap.

28
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:23,120
What? I blacked out. What was I talking about?

29
00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:28,720
A new way for web publishers to easily license their content to AI companies has arrived,

30
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:36,400
and maybe it can do something about that rapid decline of the open web that Google obviously contributed to and is suddenly concerned about.

31
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:42,560
It's called really simple licensing, or RSL, and is an open decentralized protocol that,

32
00:03:42,560 --> 00:03:52,560
like Cloudflare's pay-per-crawl feature, could ensure web crawlers only scrape a website if a publisher allows them to under a range of possible licensing options.

33
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:58,080
For example, crawlers could be blocked if they don't have a valid RSL license token.

34
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:01,880
An eliminated card that says McLovin' just it's not gonna work.

35
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:08,240
For the scheme to really take off, though, AI companies would have to be on board in some way.

36
00:04:08,240 --> 00:04:15,400
But maybe they'll be swayed by the fact that the group behind RSL, the RSL collective, includes Eckert Walther,

37
00:04:15,400 --> 00:04:21,880
one of the co-creators of the RSS standard, which stands for really simple syndication.

38
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:27,840
Simple. This is just a guess, but he's probably also a big fan of Avril Lavigne,

39
00:04:27,840 --> 00:04:32,840
a famous not-liker of when you go and make things so complicated.

40
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:39,600
After you've bought an iPhone for each and every mom you have, you must buy one for me.

41
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:43,520
And you must do this out of love. Not obligation.

42
00:04:43,520 --> 00:04:48,960
Anyway, here's the quick bits. Remember that Windows update that everyone thought broke a bunch of SSDs?

43
00:04:48,960 --> 00:04:52,880
Well, turns out Microsoft may not have been the one to blame.

44
00:04:52,880 --> 00:05:00,640
This time! Thanks to a lot of investigation done by Microsoft, Fison, the maker of microcontrollers used in many SSDs,

45
00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:08,080
and a Chinese language group called PCDIY, it seems like most of the SSD issues were actually caused by manufacturers

46
00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:15,280
shipping consumer SSDs with unstable pre-release firmware installed instead of the consumer-ready version.

47
00:05:15,280 --> 00:05:20,240
So if you've been having issues, check if your model of SSD has updated firmware available,

48
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:27,520
and check your own biases while you're at it. I know we blamed Microsoft when this first went down too, but I think you might still be the problem.

49
00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:32,880
Spotify is finally rolling out lossless streaming after teasing the feature for years,

50
00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:38,640
and even better, they aren't locking it behind a new, more expensive subscription tier.

51
00:05:38,640 --> 00:05:48,560
Conditions in the world are such that we cheer for this! Existing premium subscribers can stream music in a 24-bit 44.1 kHz FLAC format.

52
00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:54,160
That's not as high as the 192 kHz options available from Apple Music and Tidal,

53
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,320
but even more good news, you won't be able to tell the difference.

54
00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:07,760
But I know. NVIDIA has unveiled its first next-gen Ruben GPU, but not the way you think.

55
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:16,320
Ruben CPX is a specialized AI GPU with 128GB of GDDR7 memory,

56
00:06:16,320 --> 00:06:20,880
as opposed to the HBM memory used in standard NVIDIA AI GPUs.

57
00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:25,440
The CPX module will serve as a co-processor for those larger

58
00:06:25,440 --> 00:06:30,800
next-gen Ruben accelerators, making it better in some way that I frankly didn't have time to verify.

59
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:35,280
Here's a diagram if you've ever wondered what it looks like inside your robot girlfriend or

60
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:40,960
boyfriend's brain. Maybe go outside and take the pocket scion with you.

61
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:46,800
It's a wacky new device that translates biological electrical activity into sound.

62
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:52,000
It's the result of a collab between content creator Modern Biology, who does this stuff

63
00:06:52,000 --> 00:06:57,760
all the time, and a company called Instruo. The pocket scion can run these signals through

64
00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:04,640
four included digital instruments with names like Fungal Waves, or you can record the activity,

65
00:07:04,720 --> 00:07:08,640
plug it into a DAW, and make your own goopy and gloopy sounds.

66
00:07:15,680 --> 00:07:20,560
If you end up buying this thing and it creeps you out, just calm down. Do not threaten it.

67
00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:27,440
You cannot kill it in any way that matters. What you can do is come back on Friday for more tech news.

68
00:07:27,440 --> 00:07:32,960
Hopefully nothing Apple related, because I think we've done enough to cook for the next year or so.

69
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,280
I can't hold it. Can't keep it going. He gets away.
