00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:07,040
at Google's launch event for their new pixel devices yesterday the company had

2
00:00:04,000 --> 00:00:09,320
the courage to do a live AI demo after

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:13,960
using pre-baked videos at the last one causing this poor guy to probably want

4
00:00:11,599 --> 00:00:18,760
to demo whoever made him stand up there praying for help from the demo Spirits

5
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:24,359
we'll get back to him for now look it's the new pixel phones there's the pixel 9

6
00:00:21,240 --> 00:00:28,480
for 800 bucks 100 more than the pixel 8

7
00:00:24,359 --> 00:00:30,880
the pixel 9 Pro and 9 Pro XL they split

8
00:00:28,480 --> 00:00:36,800
it into two sizes for 1,100 bucks respectively and the pixel 9

9
00:00:34,920 --> 00:00:41,960
Pro fold for $1,800 they've all got this flat-sided

10
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:47,239
design whose turn it is to be the premium look but they do also have

11
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:51,640
notable upgrades 12 and 16 gig memory configurations underd display ultrasonic

12
00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:57,879
fingerprint readers that are 50% faster than the pixel 8s not on the fold though

13
00:00:54,840 --> 00:01:00,800
satellite SOS and the brand new tensor

14
00:00:57,879 --> 00:01:06,439
G4 chip which is reported barely an upgrade over the G3 and still well

15
00:01:03,239 --> 00:01:09,040
behind Qualcomm and Apple's phone chips

16
00:01:06,439 --> 00:01:15,280
oh man look at that big old camera bump though epic there's lots of new AI stuff

17
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:20,479
but first the new pixel watch 3 has bigger and brighter displays 24-hour

18
00:01:17,759 --> 00:01:25,439
always on display battery life and 36 hours on battery saver and New Pulse

19
00:01:22,840 --> 00:01:29,280
detection that calls Emergency Services when it can't find your pulse so make

20
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:33,040
sure it's got good contact with your wrist or you'll constantly be swatting

21
00:01:31,400 --> 00:01:39,720
yourself that's what they said to save people right I don't feel so good call

22
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:42,799
the SWAT team then there's the pixelbuds

23
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:45,640
Pro 2 smaller lighter with better noise

24
00:01:42,799 --> 00:01:53,680
cancelling thanks to a new tensor A1 chip that runs 90 times faster than the

25
00:01:49,399 --> 00:01:57,039
speed of sound that's Mac 90 is it

26
00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:59,479
actually running like a like a man now

27
00:01:57,039 --> 00:02:05,439
of course the phones have ai in them Magic editor lets you reimagine parts of

28
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:10,000
the photo with text prompts and the add me feature removes the need to ask a

29
00:02:08,119 --> 00:02:14,040
disgusting fleshy stranger to take a photo of you and your friends in

30
00:02:12,239 --> 00:02:18,319
honestly one of the most useful Phone features I've seen in a while ah what

31
00:02:15,959 --> 00:02:23,680
else did they put AI into ah the new pixel weather app it can adapt to show

32
00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:30,120
you what you prefer to see when you first open your weather app

33
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:32,640
which probably the weather

34
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:37,879
call notes will transcribe and summarize a phone call if you tell it to pixel

35
00:02:34,879 --> 00:02:40,599
studio is an AI image generator app and

36
00:02:37,879 --> 00:02:44,400
pixel screenshots seemed at first to be just an app to look at only your

37
00:02:42,560 --> 00:02:49,440
screenshots which was weird but then I was like oh you choose to screenshot

38
00:02:47,319 --> 00:02:53,959
stuff you want to remember and then the AI can help bring it up when you need it

39
00:02:51,959 --> 00:03:00,040
it's like Windows recall except not stupid Google's also upgrading Gemini

40
00:02:56,840 --> 00:03:02,280
adding the chat gbt voice mode es Gemini

41
00:03:00,040 --> 00:03:07,519
live and promising that it will actually be a useful assistant for real this time

42
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:13,239
working securely with your data across apps unfortunately this is where they

43
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:17,440
had that live demo goof and gives me the information I'm looking

44
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:21,879
for oh looks like we had a little demo issue let me try one more time but they

45
00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:29,200
eventually got it working to the extreme joy of someone in the audience there we

46
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,200
go all right

47
00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:39,360
thank you demo spirits who are you cheering for the demo Spirits reviews of

48
00:03:35,799 --> 00:03:43,400
AMD's ryzen 9000 Flagship processors the

49
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:45,519
950x and 9900x are live and while the

50
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:50,159
chips are indeed more powerful than the ryen 5 and 7 models launched last week

51
00:03:48,159 --> 00:03:56,760
they haven't really done anything to wash a distinct Taste of me from PC

52
00:03:53,640 --> 00:03:59,200
Enthusiast mouths it's salty but it's

53
00:03:56,760 --> 00:04:03,599
also bitter Best of Both Worlds while the chips are definitely better in

54
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:07,439
professional apps that use AVX 512 instructions their comparative

55
00:04:05,239 --> 00:04:15,480
performance in other use cases like gaming is just okay thankfully it looks

56
00:04:10,879 --> 00:04:20,120
like AMD's prepping a ryzen 5 5500 X 3D

57
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:22,199
spotted by haruk Kazi 5719 on Twitter

58
00:04:20,120 --> 00:04:27,600
which could be the most affordable chip yet equipped with 3D vcash the essential

59
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:31,720
mineral Gamers crave another rumor claims that AMD will release BIOS up

60
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:40,280
dates that will increase the TDP of the 9600 X and 9700x from 65 to 105 Watts

61
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:45,320
which should also make Gamers happy that info comes from a saucy tweet from Chile

62
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:49,360
dog on Twitter look we're not proud about relying on vague tweets for this

63
00:04:47,240 --> 00:04:55,400
but when the new ryons are this disappointing sometimes you got to dig

64
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:57,720
deeper down to find some sunshine R I

65
00:04:55,400 --> 00:05:01,440
feel like earth scientists would disagree sometimes the sunshine is is

66
00:04:59,960 --> 00:05:07,160
under the ground that's where plants come

67
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,919
from meta shut down a research tool

68
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:14,160
called crowd tangle today despite strong opposition from government officials

69
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:18,919
researchers and journalists most tech Giants upset maybe one of those groups

70
00:05:16,520 --> 00:05:23,919
but all three that's talent crowd tangle allowed the study of how information

71
00:05:21,199 --> 00:05:27,639
spreads on Facebook and Instagram that made it useful for identifying

72
00:05:25,639 --> 00:05:33,280
misinformation and security threats notably during elections news of the

73
00:05:30,639 --> 00:05:38,160
shutdown upset the European commission and even inspired a bipartisan Coalition

74
00:05:35,759 --> 00:05:43,560
of US senators and members of Congress to write a letter kindly asking Mark

75
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:48,479
Zuckerberg to maybe not do this 3 months before a presidential election consider

76
00:05:46,039 --> 00:05:54,240
it Executives at meta have responded to the outcry by saying crowd tangle wasn't

77
00:05:51,280 --> 00:05:58,199
meant for research yeah when Facebook sent people to personally train

78
00:05:55,919 --> 00:06:03,479
academics like Alice marwick on how to use crowdtangle for for research I was

79
00:06:01,199 --> 00:06:06,599
just like was just like a bit you know I was just

80
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:11,919
like we were joking we're just having fun you took it way too seriously now

81
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:17,840
meta has introduced a replacement tool called meta Content Library but it's not

82
00:06:15,759 --> 00:06:22,639
as good not only does it produce less usable data but researchers now have to

83
00:06:20,199 --> 00:06:27,560
apply to use it and then wait for approval meanwhile journalists from

84
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:32,240
commercial organizations meaning most journalists are ineligible

85
00:06:30,080 --> 00:06:37,319
more importantly have you tried our sponsor ODU it's good let's face it if

86
00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:42,280
you have a business in this day and age you probably want a website fortunately

87
00:06:39,680 --> 00:06:46,280
you can make one for free with ODU it's easy to use thanks to its simple drag

88
00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:50,400
and drop elements and code free approach ODU even provides unlimited hosting

89
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:54,479
reliable support and a free custom domain for an entire year visit ODU at

90
00:06:53,000 --> 00:07:02,280
the link in the description and create a website for

91
00:06:57,039 --> 00:07:07,039
free come on sh if we're very quiet the

92
00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:07,039
quick bits can't find us uh

93
00:07:09,639 --> 00:07:16,319
oh Elon musk's other company named X xai

94
00:07:14,039 --> 00:07:20,759
has released its upgraded grock 2 language model in beta complete with a

95
00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:25,440
new image generator that's willing to generate pretty much anything you want

96
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:30,479
which is so far leading to a good many edgy photos of Taylor Swift flying into

97
00:07:27,840 --> 00:07:36,479
the Twin Towers but I'm I'm also not complaining about finally getting to see

98
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:38,680
Baro Obama in waiting years grock 2 is

99
00:07:36,479 --> 00:07:44,319
so edgy and cool that it doesn't hesitate to depict real people and

100
00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:46,720
copyrighted characters packing heat whoa

101
00:07:44,319 --> 00:07:51,879
Pikachu I didn't know you played like that you can come around my crib anytime

102
00:07:50,319 --> 00:07:57,280
anyways I'm sure this will bring all the advertisers back valve has confirmed

103
00:07:55,360 --> 00:08:02,720
that they are adding third-party device support to Steam OS starting with the

104
00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:07,560
Rog Ally valve designer Lawrence Yang gave a statement to The Verge after

105
00:08:04,639 --> 00:08:11,319
support for extra Rog Ally Keys was spotted in the patch notes of the

106
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:16,520
Linux-based operating system though he noted that third party support isn't

107
00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:18,800
quite ready yet the company is also

108
00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:23,319
still working on making it possible to dual boot Windows on your steam deck

109
00:08:21,479 --> 00:08:26,879
perhaps by the time valve gets dual boot working Microsoft will have done the

110
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:33,279
same for Windows 11 which is what we actually want zuda ludicrous wacky

111
00:08:30,159 --> 00:08:35,959
cousin now the open source AMD GPU

112
00:08:33,279 --> 00:08:41,760
implementation of NVIDIA's Cuda was taken down last week but not by NVIDIA

113
00:08:39,440 --> 00:08:48,000
it was actually AMD who funded the development of zuda who sent a takedown

114
00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:50,399
request to developer Andre Yanik while

115
00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:54,399
Yanik said AMD gave him permission to release the code in an email apparently

116
00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:59,200
they changed their mind the company's legal department now claims the email is

117
00:08:56,839 --> 00:09:04,480
not legally binding oh what you thought the words that someone wrote to you

118
00:09:02,519 --> 00:09:09,240
meant something it was clearly just a bit an open- source project has gone

119
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:14,920
viral for its ability to generate realtime deep fakes deep live cam

120
00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:19,680
apparently only needs a single image of a person's face to successfully make you

121
00:09:16,839 --> 00:09:23,440
look like that person in live webcam video tools like this have existed in

122
00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:28,920
the past but they couldn't do it with a single image so the results aren't exact

123
00:09:26,680 --> 00:09:34,000
but they do a pretty good job matching poses expressions and even the lighting

124
00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:38,200
captured by your webcam illustrator Corey Brickley reminds us that it's time

125
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:41,920
to establish code words with your parents because your face and voice are

126
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:46,399
no longer enough to verify your identity this has been the latest episode of

127
00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:50,200
man-made Horrors beyond my comprehension and I'm just kidding there's more mit's

128
00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:56,440
computer science and artificial intelligence laboratory has launched the

129
00:09:52,839 --> 00:10:00,160
AI risk repository which contains more

130
00:09:56,440 --> 00:10:02,320
than 700 AI risks the project was

131
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:07,600
prompted by concerns that AI implementation was outpacing the spread

132
00:10:04,680 --> 00:10:11,440
of the knowledge of the risks associated with said implementation risks like

133
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:17,000
needing to establish code words with your loved ones probably that's number

134
00:10:14,079 --> 00:10:20,839
568 coincidentally in their quest to spread information about the many

135
00:10:18,560 --> 00:10:25,720
threats of AI the repositories creators found that one of the least addressed

136
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:32,680
threats is misinformation sure we may not understand AI but thanks to AI we

137
00:10:29,560 --> 00:10:34,399
don't understand anything so but if we

138
00:10:32,680 --> 00:10:38,519
did understand something it would be that you should come back on Friday for

139
00:10:36,120 --> 00:10:42,079
more Tech news I mean it's how the weekend is meant to be

140
00:10:40,279 --> 00:10:49,639
started did you guys hear about that attack news oh cool let's let's hang out

141
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,639
laughs an existential dread
