OpenAI appears to be testing ads inside chat GPT conversations because the company is going to have to make some cash eventually if we all want chatbots to continue glazing our every deranged inner thought. Software developer T-bore Blah dug into the latest Android beta and found explicit references to what is clearly some kind of ads feature, including strings for a search ads carousel and bizarre content. To be clear, bazaar as in marketplace, although there's plenty of bizarre AI slop out there. You know what I mean? This would make ChatGpt the first major generalized chatbot to directly integrate ads, although Google added sponsored results as part of its AI search tools this year. And Amazon's Rufus shopping assistant chatbot is basically just one big ad. If AI companies are going to keep this bubble bubbling though, they need to monetize. Even if AI is still about as reliable as a McDonald's ice cream machine. A recent study found that nearly 21% of peer reviews submitted to an AI research publication conference were likely AI generated. Meaning hallucinationprone chat bots are evaluating how badly other chat bots hallucinate. Seems reasonable. Whoa. Is it just me or can also all you guys also see our sponsor right there?

The Windows-based gaming handheld has a 9 in OLED display, an AMD Ryzen AI Max Plus 395 chip, aka Stricks Halo, a big old 115Wh battery, and Hall joysticks and linear triggers to go with the touchpads, too. The X2 looks like a top tier portable gaming device meant to run AAA PC games, but given its size and power, don't expect it to be light or tiny. Instead, chunky. With the GDP Win 5 and its Buxom removable high-capacity battery preceding the Iono's new large and inch charge flagship, it appears we're entering the handheld market's Gears of War era. Things are getting chunky. Girl, you're thicker than a bowl of oatmeal. AMD appears to have accidentally confirmed the existence of the Ryzen 7 9850X3D. The unannounced chip was first spotted on a since removed AMD support page, but AMD didn't act quickly enough to stop folks from learning that it's basically the same 8 core 16thread chip as the 9800 X3D, but with a bump in boost clocks up to 5.6 GHz. Watch out PC part picker, there's a new default recommended high-end gaming CPU on the block, and it doesn't take no I like that AMD is acting like someone who got caught buying a present for someone else. Oh, funny running into you at the mall. Me? I'm just here for a walk. Got to get my steps in that bag. Uh, what bag? Oh, DON'T LOOK AT THAT BAG. AH, there's no unannounced CPU for you in there. IT DOESN'T EXIST. THIS JOKE NEEDS WORK. Netflix has quietly killed the ability to cast from phones to newer chcasts, Google TV streamers, and most Android TV sets. For some reason, the company updated its help page saying you now have to use the actual Netflix app on those affected devices because apparently having a remote means you aren't allowed to cast. You should have thought of that before you bought a remote device. At least the feature still works on older chcast devices, right? We said that like as a question, but I think it's true. For everyone else though, they now get rewarded with a nice completely useless button on their screen. This is the future. Get used to it. The government of India has ordered all smartphone makers, including Apple, to ship phones sold over there with a state-owned security app called Sanchar Sati pre-installed, and users won't be allowed to delete or disable it. The government says the app helps catch stolen phones, block scam related IMEI spoofing, and spot fraudulent connections, but critics worry this could undercut user privacy and consent. Remember how pissed people were when the iPhone 6 launched with a U2 album in everyone's iTunes automatically? Now governments are forcing your phones to come with surveillance apps installed and nobody bats an eye. You too must really suck. And Japan's new 60 million yen mi human washing machine. A capsule that washes and dries you in 15 minutes using microbubbles and soothing music that does the cleaning, too. Sonic Blasting is officially heading to commercial sale after going viral at the Osaka Kansai Expo. It'll be on display in Tokyo starting December 25th, Christmas. What a what a gift. With trial sessions available, though the exact trial date still isn't locked in, the machine is being developed by those silly guys over at the aptly named Science Incorporated, where shockingly they might actually do science. This thing, I mean, it seems legit. For now, a production will be limited to 40 to 50 units over the next six years. No one's going to get clean with a potential cheaper home model somewhere down the line. I can't wait for a machine that can clean your body and your shame after buying a $60 million yen bathtub. Apparently, that's $385,000. So, yeah, that's about shame ballpark. And you should go take a bath, you stinker. But come back on Wednesday for more tech news. I'm going to go find that guy who was pestering me all show and beat him up. Come here, you. >> No, >> I wouldn't do I wouldn't do that. >> This is grumpy Riley. This is New York Riley. >> I couldn't. >> Well, >> not on camera. All right."}
