1
00:00:00,280 --> 00:00:10,599
ah I have so much Tech news to give you but I don't know if you're ready some of

2
00:00:05,359 --> 00:00:14,000
it may unsettle you cause you some

3
00:00:10,599 --> 00:00:17,400
discomfort might make you feel a little

4
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:20,240
bit woozy Intel is reportedly working to

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:26,320
finalize commitments from NVIDIA to have Team Blue's Foundry division manufacture

6
00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:28,279
team Green's gaming gpus an eerily

7
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:32,520
perfect setup for the tech industry version of the Red Wedding from Game of

8
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:36,920
Thrones and team red isn't even involved in tell no get out of there the news

9
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:41,800
comes from industry analyst Timothy aruri who wrote in a note to investors

10
00:00:39,719 --> 00:00:47,520
that securing Foundry customers like NVIDIA or less likely broadcom is a

11
00:00:44,920 --> 00:00:52,559
major goal of the company's new CEO lip boan even if NVIDIA doesn't love the

12
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:57,840
idea of having their chips made by a competitor in the gaming GPU Market to

13
00:00:55,199 --> 00:01:02,680
be extremely charitable towards Intel the deal could make sense if only to

14
00:01:00,079 --> 00:01:07,960
avoid the tariffs US president Trump may still place on chips made by NVIDIA's

15
00:01:05,199 --> 00:01:13,159
existing partner tsmc and who knows maybe Intel could help NVIDIA stock more

16
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:19,840
than like four graphics cards at each retailer scalping and supply issues are

17
00:01:15,960 --> 00:01:22,600
part of why AMD sold 10 times more RX

18
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:27,520
970 XTS in the first week than its predecessors or at least that's what CEO

19
00:01:25,240 --> 00:01:32,119
Dr Lisa Sue said in an interview with ASUS China I got to say I didn't did not

20
00:01:30,320 --> 00:01:36,520
have Radeon graphics cards are dominating the market so NVIDIA and

21
00:01:33,960 --> 00:01:41,880
Intel have to team up to take them down on my 2025 bingo card because I don't

22
00:01:39,479 --> 00:01:46,640
have a bingo card at all that's gambling lots of notable AI developments this

23
00:01:43,640 --> 00:01:48,840
week with the arrival of new Gemini 2.5

24
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:53,000
thinking models from Google deep mind that the company says are Mighty

25
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:56,840
powerful by which they mean they're just slightly better on some common

26
00:01:54,840 --> 00:02:02,240
benchmarks but a new Benchmark could show that all the AI suck hold on that's

27
00:02:00,119 --> 00:02:07,520
for the end of the story open AI finally rolled out native image generation for

28
00:02:04,439 --> 00:02:10,039
chat gbt's 40 model meaning it no longer

29
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:14,920
needs to use do for that the update has made chat gbt shockingly good at

30
00:02:12,440 --> 00:02:18,000
reproducing text in generated images while maintaining the consistency of

31
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:21,959
characters and environments through multiple iterations it's a feature that

32
00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:27,440
open AI has apparently been holding on to since 40 was en veiled nearly a year

33
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:33,040
ago I guess they decided to wait until 2 weeks after Google launched the same

34
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:35,000
thing in Gemini bom gotcha notably guard

35
00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:40,200
rails for these image generators have been loosened open AI System card for

36
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:45,560
GPT 40 says they're not blocking the capability to generate public figures as

37
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:52,000
long as they're adults and public figures who wish for their depiction not

38
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:54,280
to be generated can opt out I didn't see

39
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:59,440
how uh in the document I guess Tred dming Sam guess what there's more NVIDIA

40
00:02:56,640 --> 00:03:04,120
is now rolling out Project G assist it's AI assistant that can run locally on

41
00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:08,920
your GPU and is apparently named after the company's fake AI assistant from

42
00:03:06,599 --> 00:03:15,440
their April Fool's joke in 2017 8 years from parody to reality is

43
00:03:12,799 --> 00:03:20,080
this normal the real G assist won't play games for you but in addition to giving

44
00:03:17,799 --> 00:03:25,319
gaming tips it can actually control thirdparty accessories like wall lights

45
00:03:22,920 --> 00:03:30,680
and even change some of your PC settings if you ask it to instead of just telling

46
00:03:28,159 --> 00:03:35,560
you that you can open the set app than find an enable dark mode uh and how did

47
00:03:33,640 --> 00:03:41,480
NVIDIA make a more useful AI assistant for Windows PCS than Microsoft meanwhile

48
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:44,080
chatbot service character. which is very

49
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:48,360
popular among teens as evidenced by all those uplifting articles about the

50
00:03:46,239 --> 00:03:54,280
things it's done has announced a new parental insights feature which lets

51
00:03:50,760 --> 00:03:56,480
users under 18 send a weekly activity

52
00:03:54,280 --> 00:04:03,200
report to their parent or Guardian if they want to uh

53
00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:07,280
it's parental controls for the good kids that don't need them now in case you're

54
00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:12,760
worried that AI is getting too smart too fast there's a new Benchmark Arc AGI 2

55
00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:17,680
which requires fluid intelligence to complete novel tasks instead of testing

56
00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:22,919
AIS on their ability to solve problems that are probably in their training data

57
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:25,000
somewhere and nearly every model is

58
00:04:22,919 --> 00:04:30,320
horrible at this new test so we should have some time left before we all feel

59
00:04:27,479 --> 00:04:35,000
the AGI in the form of robot bot feet on our neck right now we can feel the

60
00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:39,160
savings with our sponsor Micro Center and their monitor Madness event that's

61
00:04:36,919 --> 00:04:43,600
on right now with great deals on a wide range of monitors from this Acer Nitro

62
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:50,280
2K 180 HZ for just $199.99 to this Samsung Odyssey cuti

63
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:53,280
OLED super ultra wide that's $700 off

64
00:04:50,280 --> 00:04:55,880
it's mad mad I tell you and Micro Center

65
00:04:53,280 --> 00:05:00,160
is opening another store in Santa Clara California so you can shop deals like

66
00:04:57,639 --> 00:05:04,919
that in person that's almost as mad as giving people who sign up at the link

67
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:07,240
below a free 128 gig flash drive in

68
00:05:04,919 --> 00:05:11,800
store when it opens this year what they're doing that as if that wasn't

69
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:15,880
enough Microcenter is also running a GPU tradein program so you can bring in your

70
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:20,280
GPU purchased at Microcenter and receive an offer that very same day or if you

71
00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:24,560
just want to recycle your old Tech or donate it to someone in need Microcenter

72
00:05:22,319 --> 00:05:27,840
can help with that too they even got Tech news articles tutorials and buying

73
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:32,360
guides on their blog they're like a Swiss army knife over here shop Micro

74
00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:38,919
Center's monitor Madness event at the link in the description did that news

75
00:05:34,520 --> 00:05:40,880
disqui disturb or perturb you I'm sorry

76
00:05:38,919 --> 00:05:46,560
these quick bits should feel much better entering your ocular and auditory

77
00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:51,280
orifices why did I say it like that ASRock

78
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:53,280
ASRock every time ASRock has published a

79
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:57,639
slightly confusing update after investigating issues experienced by some

80
00:05:55,639 --> 00:06:02,639
owners of the company's motherboards while ASRock acknowledged some some of

81
00:05:59,960 --> 00:06:11,000
its BIOS versions caused boot issues with quote random 9,000 Series CPUs they

82
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:13,759
say their new BIOS 3.20 fixes that issue

83
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:18,599
and it's not related to the other issue that caused burn damage on the CPU

84
00:06:16,039 --> 00:06:22,360
socket uh they didn't exactly say what could have caused multiple users to

85
00:06:20,199 --> 00:06:28,680
report burnt CPUs and pins on the motherboard but implied it was caused by

86
00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:30,440
debris in the socket which they removed

87
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:36,319
uh leading to the system some passing long-term stress tests so there was just

88
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:38,280
some you know stuff unfortunately for

89
00:06:36,319 --> 00:06:43,199
ASRock many are still calling for further investigation as there was

90
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:48,880
something in there in it is a less than satisfying answer what was it well I

91
00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:51,199
some variety of Gunk some promising

92
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:56,160
Windows 11 features have popped up in a new preview build including a controller

93
00:06:53,680 --> 00:07:02,840
friendly keyboard and more importantly an improved Windows search where which

94
00:07:00,319 --> 00:07:08,000
will only be available on co-pilot plus PCS because I guess Microsoft needed

95
00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:12,520
Advanced neural networks to make search almost as useful as it was in Windows 7

96
00:07:10,479 --> 00:07:17,160
Apple has once again been barred from participating in Google's upcoming

97
00:07:14,479 --> 00:07:21,360
anti-rust hearing after an appeals court denied the tech Giants motion to testify

98
00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:25,039
about how much it would suck for them to lose the $20 billion Google pays them

99
00:07:23,319 --> 00:07:29,840
every year to be Safari's default search engine this is so sad they just want to

100
00:07:27,879 --> 00:07:34,879
be together for the hearing and conduct Shady deals I ship them Canada has

101
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:40,319
banned Tesla from receiving any federal electric vehicle rebates in the future

102
00:07:37,039 --> 00:07:44,159
weeks after the company filed for $ 43.1

103
00:07:40,319 --> 00:07:46,919
million in rebates claiming that four of

104
00:07:44,159 --> 00:07:53,240
its Canadian stores had sold 8,653 vehicles in 3 days that would be

105
00:07:50,639 --> 00:07:58,840
120 EVS per hour the sales all happened the weekend

106
00:07:56,240 --> 00:08:03,000
before a previously announced pause in the EV rebates program so I can

107
00:08:01,120 --> 00:08:07,159
understand why all those Canadians rush to get one before the deadline and a

108
00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:12,440
company called gravitics has been awarded funding by the US space force to

109
00:08:09,919 --> 00:08:18,560
develop what is essentially an aircraft carrier in space awesomely referred to

110
00:08:15,759 --> 00:08:23,759
as an orbital carrier the craft would actually hold maintain and release

111
00:08:21,319 --> 00:08:28,280
satellites into orbit which would save on having to launch them from Earth

112
00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:33,039
however the company didn't say they wouldn't also be used eventually for

113
00:08:30,919 --> 00:08:37,519
transporting squadrons of star Fighters so I'm considering that a feature that's

114
00:08:34,839 --> 00:08:42,719
coming later on also arriving later more Tech news on Friday specifically because

115
00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:50,440
that's when Tech news happens next because that's when I make the tech news

116
00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:50,440
happen I think that's how it works
