WEBVTT

00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:05.839
we make these videos in a single day so saving time is super important which is

00:00:04.600 --> 00:00:10.519
why I'm just going to tell you that magical is sponsoring this video and move on okay I'll tell you more later

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:15.519
don't worry about it the United States Department of Justice sued apple on

00:00:12.920 --> 00:00:20.640
Thursday for monopolizing smartphone markets which is a bolder and broader

00:00:18.080 --> 00:00:23.920
claim than even epic games made in their lawsuit they should have thought of that

00:00:22.400 --> 00:00:28.800
before they became a video game company instead of a government institution the

00:00:25.960 --> 00:00:34.879
sheer scope of the doj's complaints make this probably the largest antitrust case

00:00:31.880 --> 00:00:40.120
since the doj sued Microsoft back in 1998 which led to the company pinky

00:00:37.360 --> 00:00:43.920
swearing to not be so monopolistic in shoving Internet Explorer down consumer

00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:47.920
throats but when you change the browser name to Edge pinky promises don't count

00:00:45.800 --> 00:00:52.680
that's playground rules in a nutshell the reason for the doj's lawsuit is

00:00:49.920 --> 00:00:58.920
basically summarized by Tim Cook's now classic line buy your mom an iPhone buy

00:00:56.359 --> 00:01:04.320
your mom an iPhone all

00:01:00.879 --> 00:01:06.479
right join me or be cast into the

00:01:04.320 --> 00:01:12.439
piercing void with the rest of your contemptible kind unworthy scum cook

00:01:10.400 --> 00:01:15.960
said this in response to a reporter talking about how pictures and videos

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:21.119
look like grainy garbage when they're sent between iPhones and Androids and

00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:25.159
it's even quoted in the doj's complaint they also mentioned the iOS app store's

00:01:22.960 --> 00:01:30.079
restrictive rules specifically claiming that Apple blocks super apps like WeChat

00:01:28.720 --> 00:01:34.280
which basically serves as an app platform in itself in China and they

00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:39.040
also bring up Hardware incompatibility citing the Apple watch's lack of Android

00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:45.600
support but that's apparently not for a lack of trying Apple told 9 to5 Mac that

00:01:42.280 --> 00:01:47.600
it spent 3 years investigating whether

00:01:45.600 --> 00:01:53.200
Android support could be added to Apple watch ultimately deciding it would never

00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:54.560
work because of technical limitations

00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:59.880
which is so weird that's the same reason my last girlfriend broke up with me pretty much any issue with iOS you've

00:01:57.680 --> 00:02:04.159
ever heard of is cited in this lawsuit and it's clear the doj thinks Apple's

00:02:02.159 --> 00:02:08.399
Walled Garden approach isn't cool anymore in a statement issued to the

00:02:06.039 --> 00:02:14.200
Press Apple says the lawsuit threatens who we are and and and yeah yeah it does

00:02:13.040 --> 00:02:18.840
that's kind of the whole point you're toxic I'm slipping under but for me the

00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:23.120
most scandalous part of all of this is that Tim Sweeney can't even tweet about

00:02:21.200 --> 00:02:28.280
it until he's done giving testimony in the Australian epic games versus Apple

00:02:25.360 --> 00:02:31.840
trial what does he think if he does tweet it spins the opposite way

00:02:31.959 --> 00:02:39.000
neuralink Elon musk's brain computer interface company posted a live stream

00:02:36.680 --> 00:02:46.080
on Twitter proving that their first human patient is not only alive he is

00:02:42.239 --> 00:02:48.680
killing it at chess Nolan arbau received

00:02:46.080 --> 00:02:54.319
the wireless implant in January and can now easily move a mouse cursor with his

00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:56.440
mind well enough to play Civilization 6

00:02:54.319 --> 00:03:00.519
for 8 hours straight only stopping because he had to charge it now while

00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:04.280
this is certainly impressive be experts have pointed out that the basic

00:03:01.800 --> 00:03:09.239
technology here isn't new I mean here's a video from 2007 of a guy controlling a

00:03:06.959 --> 00:03:14.319
mouse cursor with his mind academic researchers and startups like synchron

00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:16.000
and black rock the neurotech company not

00:03:14.319 --> 00:03:20.760
the one you're thinking of have all achieved similar results but it's clear

00:03:18.519 --> 00:03:25.840
that neuralink is trying to create the iPhone moment for bcis with its

00:03:23.239 --> 00:03:31.159
minimalist design and sexy neural threads that get all up inside your

00:03:27.799 --> 00:03:32.920
brain and have a 300 count and to be

00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:38.000
fair it does seem like neuralink has stirred up a lot of hype thanks in no

00:03:35.319 --> 00:03:42.799
small part to Elon making claims like this one where he says it's possible to

00:03:39.760 --> 00:03:45.480
shunt brain signals past a spinal injury

00:03:42.799 --> 00:03:50.239
so paralyzed people can walk again which would obviously be awesome but I've also

00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:55.879
seen a lot of this guy's rockets explode so I I just don't know Microsoft has

00:03:52.920 --> 00:04:01.439
hired the CEO and founder of inflection AI the company behind the popular pie

00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:04.519
chatbot to head up its Microsoft AI

00:04:01.439 --> 00:04:07.519
division also hired by Microsoft most of

00:04:04.519 --> 00:04:10.040
inflection other 70 employees in what

00:04:07.519 --> 00:04:15.000
many in the industry are calling an aqua hire and what a smaller group is calling

00:04:12.239 --> 00:04:18.400
a h quisition it's just me saying that second one you know what I don't even

00:04:16.400 --> 00:04:25.199
like it Microsoft will also pay inflection $620 million to license their

00:04:22.280 --> 00:04:29.320
Pi models and another 30 million to keep their lips shut about the whole poaching

00:04:27.040 --> 00:04:34.000
a whole company thing don't spread this around in a blog post the survivors at

00:04:32.120 --> 00:04:39.759
inflection referred to the gutting of their company as an important change to

00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:42.280
how will work but analyst Tony Wang and

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:46.240
everyone else with eyes says this is basically an acquisition of inflection

00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:51.000
without having to go through regulatory approval it's clear that Microsoft CEO

00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:55.440
Satia Nadella is serious about his company's dominance in AI in the wake of

00:04:53.400 --> 00:04:59.720
this story a quote has gone viral from one of his interviews back in November

00:04:57.600 --> 00:05:04.840
when Microsoft was briefly going to hire open AI CEO Sam Alman and much of that

00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:08.919
company's staff asked about the possibility of open AI folding nadela

00:05:06.840 --> 00:05:14.280
said Microsoft would be fine because quote we have all the IP rights and all

00:05:11.919 --> 00:05:19.240
the capability we have the people we have the compute we have the data we

00:05:16.520 --> 00:05:23.800
have everything we are in there we are below them above them around them we are

00:05:22.960 --> 00:05:29.160
the Senate he didn't say that last part but

00:05:26.199 --> 00:05:32.319
it's treason then now it's time for quick bits brought to you by magical the

00:05:31.080 --> 00:05:35.960
company that wants to help you spend less time typing copying and pasting

00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:39.600
that's time you could use to watch more Tech news or just listen to me speak

00:05:37.759 --> 00:05:43.600
until you fall asleep the magical Chrome extension is 100% free to download and

00:05:42.280 --> 00:05:49.080
compatible with some of the most commonly used tools apps and services

00:05:46.080 --> 00:05:50.919
like Gmail LinkedIn and 10 million more

00:05:49.080 --> 00:05:54.919
it helps you build customizable message templates accessible with a simple

00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:59.199
keyboard shortcut magical can even fill in the blanks automatically so you don't

00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:03.720
have to and if you find yourself repeating the same template again and

00:06:01.080 --> 00:06:09.039
again magicals AI reply feature powered by GPT 4 lets you reply to messages in

00:06:06.360 --> 00:06:14.319
one click to easily mix things up so you don't use the word utilize so much that

00:06:10.800 --> 00:06:16.319
it loses all meaning utilize utilize it

00:06:14.319 --> 00:06:20.560
it feels weird also with magicals transfers feature you can scrape info

00:06:18.400 --> 00:06:24.759
from up to 10 tabs of pages at once and automatically plop them all onto one

00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:28.800
centralized spreadsheet no more tedious copying and pasting download the magical

00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:34.319
extension for free using the link below and save some of your precious time AMD

00:06:31.360 --> 00:06:39.160
has announced FSR 3.1 which not only adds substantial improvements to ITS

00:06:36.400 --> 00:06:44.720
upscaling Technologies but also greatly expands access to frame generation the

00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:49.880
update allows for the decoupling of AMD's frame generation Tech from its FSR

00:06:47.800 --> 00:06:56.720
3 upscaling allowing other upscaling Solutions like NVIDIA's dlss or Intel's

00:06:53.120 --> 00:06:59.599
XS to use team Red's frame generation

00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:04.919
feature apparently NVIDIA RTX 20 series cards and above are supported though

00:07:02.199 --> 00:07:10.039
AMD's upscaling also got some love FSR 3.1 improves temporal stability and

00:07:07.280 --> 00:07:14.360
reduces ghosting which AMD demonstrated using GIFs that are definitely from

00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:19.919
ratchet and clanked Rift apart and totally aren't just AI generated

00:07:16.840 --> 00:07:21.240
clamation why are they so small like

00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:27.039
look how good this looks what sue you a nonprofit open-

00:07:25.080 --> 00:07:32.520
Source Nintendo switch emulator based on the recently defunct Yuzu released its

00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:37.280
first build on Wednesday only to have it immediately pulled down by gitlab on the

00:07:35.160 --> 00:07:42.240
grounds that it's a fork of a public repo against which we previously

00:07:39.599 --> 00:07:46.879
received a dmca notice ironic however the suyu team says they

00:07:44.919 --> 00:07:50.800
will still continue the project the build is available for Windows Linux and

00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:55.879
macOS and they've apparently added several fixes and removed all Telemetry

00:07:53.680 --> 00:07:59.639
which is probably a good idea given what happened to the last guy who Tangled

00:07:57.280 --> 00:08:05.800
with Nintendo's enforcers the those Goombas look not threatening but at a

00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:09.599
virtual event Microsoft unveiled the brand new Surface Pro 10 and surface

00:08:08.440 --> 00:08:14.360
laptop 6 for business no but seriously uh if

00:08:12.639 --> 00:08:19.280
you're excited about the new ARM powered devices um don't be for these these

00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:23.199
products use Intel Core Ultra chips which are still new the rumored

00:08:21.039 --> 00:08:27.479
Snapdragon X Elite notebooks won't be coming until May but it might be worth

00:08:25.120 --> 00:08:32.240
the wait Qualcomm claims most Windows Games should just work on their

00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:36.320
processors you know what else Works co-pilot before announcing the new

00:08:34.200 --> 00:08:41.320
Surface devices Microsoft rehashed all of their ai's greatest hits Like a

00:08:38.640 --> 00:08:45.880
Rolling Stones concert if no one wanted to listen to The Rolling Stones how' I

00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:49.680
get a ticket Apple's M series chips have an unpatchable side Channel

00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:54.000
vulnerability allowing attackers to extract encryption keys from Max a team

00:08:52.680 --> 00:08:58.720
of researchers from multiple universities detailed an attack called

00:08:56.160 --> 00:09:03.640
go fetch which uses an app that doesn't require any root access to the Target

00:09:00.800 --> 00:09:08.000
Mac only the same user privileges needed by most thirdparty macOS apps the

00:09:05.920 --> 00:09:12.640
vulnerability is due to the design of the Silicon itself so it can't be

00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:16.320
patched only mitigated by software defenses that could severely affect

00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:20.480
performance I also have an unpatchable flaw that affects my performance it's

00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:24.800
called depression and security researchers say that around 13,000

00:09:22.880 --> 00:09:28.480
buildings predominantly hotels from around the world are currently

00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:33.800
vulnerable to an exploit that allows a master key to be created for the entire

00:09:30.880 --> 00:09:38.720
building using just an NFC enabled Android device and a key card from that

00:09:36.160 --> 00:09:42.720
hotel it can also be used to override dead bolts so you're going to want to

00:09:40.440 --> 00:09:48.480
hope that little chain can hold this vulnerability affects saff loock locks

00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:52.920
created by dormakaba and I swear we're just now making these Nam these are all

00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:58.440
Star Wars names dorak is aware of the issue and have so far replaced or

00:09:55.160 --> 00:10:00.959
patched 36% of the affected locks wow

00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:05.160
there are no known cases of this exploit being used in the wild this is very much

00:10:03.040 --> 00:10:11.399
a horror we have uncovered for ourselves in captivity much like the Zony the

00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:15.560
Unholy offspring of a zebra and a donkey

00:10:11.399 --> 00:10:17.480
that's Jessica's fun fact fun horror for

00:10:15.560 --> 00:10:21.279
the day and you'll uncover more Tech news if you come back on Monday for

00:10:19.040 --> 00:10:24.320
another episode of TechLink might have to might have to dig a little bit but

00:10:23.040 --> 00:10:29.120
just kidding you know we just give it right to you just big into archaeology

00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:29.120
right now just
