Hi, it's me, Jake Tivey, and I love technology, computers, and hard drives so much that if someone else says they're not really into that stuff, my face gets hot and I have to find an object and strike it.

Anyways, here's the news.

Apple appears to be joining the AI arms race, according to a Financial Times report claiming that Apple has been steadily investing in hardware, AI startups, and key staff with the aim of getting generative AI to run locally on Apple products.

Cupertino has been criticized for being slow to incorporate AI, but if these reports are accurate, the company's actually targeting something far more ambitious than what any other OEM has been able to accomplish.

Extremely lightweight LLMs along the lines of Meta's Llama have been demoed running on a small device like a phone or a RasPi, but they don't run well, less Usain Bolt and more asthmatic kid with concrete sneakers.

which explains why the Rabbit R One, the ultra hyped pocket AI assistant device, apparently took twenty seconds to answer a prompt in a recent TikTok.

But if anyone can smooth out that experience, it's Apple, and analysts project that a new AI powered Siri will launch with iOS XVIII.

In the meantime, the most recent iOS update includes opt in stolen device protection that requires additional steps like Face ID and Touch ID to access sensitive data on the iPhone.

To change their Apple ID password or remove biometric security scans, users will have to first pass those scans and then endure a one hour security delay.

Of course, these steps won't apply if the user is in a familiar location, but I guess if the burglar is currently standing in your home, you've got bigger problems than just your phone password.

What are you gonna feed him?

Gun bullets.

Relying on biometric scans clearly isn't the perfect security solution though, because Apple required Face ID in order to pre order a Vision Pro, and the scalpers just used bots with that data hard coded in.

How much are resellers expecting in return for this asinine bit of ingenuity?

Ten thousand dollars on eBay.

What, you want them to do it for free?

No, they gotta get paid for their hard work.

It's a market.

It's a free market.

AMD is now shipping its new Instinct MI X AI Accelerator GPUs to enterprise customers, according to one of their customers, Lamini AI.

Hopefully I said that right.

Previously, MI III series chips were reserved for supercomputer clients, but AMD is already projecting that these chips will be its fastest product to one billion dollars in sales since its founding.

According to AMD's benchmarks, the MI III X outdoes NVIDIA's at gigabyte H one hundred, though we've yet to see how it will fare against the upcoming H two hundred.

Beyond AMD's underdog journey to fight NVIDIA for control over the AI chip money pit, let's talk about chips that normal people can actually buy.

Leaked benchmarks for the Ryzen seven at seven hundred G and the Ryzen five at six hundred G APUs seem to show that the new processors are fifty to sixty seven percent faster than their direct predecessors, with particularly strong numbers shown on multithreaded tests.

This would place them only just below AMD's seven thousand series CPUs in terms of performance.

Although one caveat to these numbers is that this lineup hasn't been updated in two and a half years.

It's still impressive, but it's like your grandma seeing you for the first time in months and congratulating you on getting so tall.

I'm the same height, grandma!

I've been six foot for like ten years, I swear.

I like my other grandma better.

It's only Wednesday and it's already been a big week in space.

Not that space isn't already pretty massive.

Sierra Space demonstrated the strength and resilience of their new inflatable space station habitat the way that any eight year old boy would, by inflating it until it exploded.

The soft habitat is designed to be light and compact enough to send into space, but it'll expand once it gets there, allowing astronauts to live far more comfortably aboard the ISS.

I thought they didn't have air in space.

Even aboard the ISS.

Yeah.

But if you want people to feel safe living in what is effectively a space age bouncy castle, you've got to show that it's safe, which they did by inflating it to seventy seven PSI, five hundred percent of its normal operating pressure, before it burst like a tomato hitting a windshield.

Does that happen to you?

Let me know in the comments.

Are you a tomato?

In other news, NASA has managed to establish contact with its helicopter on Mars, but less happily, a second moon mission has failed this week, this time without even reaching the lunar surface.

Astrobotics unmanned Peregrine Moon Lander experienced a post launch propulsion malfunction that resulted in it falling back to Earth and burning up in the atmosphere, alongside a few of NASA's little science fair projects, leading the entire team to get an F and call home to their parents.

Disney Park Imagineers appeared to have solved one of the holy grails of VR by inventing an omnidirectional treadmill that looks like it's made out of breath mints.

The hollow tile floor is modular, expandable, and can be used by multiple people at the same time, and can even be used to move objects around using motion controls.

Disney's research fellow and Imagineer Lanny Smoot, who has been inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame, said you can dance on it without actually moving, which has been a dream of nerds for centuries.

Following a non fatal accident that saw a fuselage panel blow off of an Alaska Airlines plane mid flight, the airline's fleet of Boeing Seven Thirty Sevens was thoroughly inspected, revealing a shocking number of loose bolts.

Which, given that these are airplanes that could kill you, is literally any amount of loose bolts.

They're coming for you.

Airplane.

I hate them.

In response, the Federal Aviation Administration has grounded all the MAX Nines with mid cabin door plugs.

Worse for Boeing, an industry insider says that the panel was removed for repair, then improperly reinstalled by Boeing's own mechanics.

Even worse for Boeing?

Yesterday in Atlanta, a MAX Nine lost nose wheel while preparing for takeoff.

You know what?

Maybe I'll just walk to Seattle.

I lose nose wheel all the time.

Only a week after OpenAI banned using ChatGPT to impersonate political candidates, the company has suspended the account of a developer behind a bot used to impersonate US presidential hopeful Dean Phillips.

Notably, the bot was created by supporters, but it comes with a disclaimer that says, while it was designed to sound like Phillips, it's possible that it could say things that are wrong, incorrect, or shouldn't be said.

So perhaps this was for their own good.

This election season has already seen far more malicious uses of AI such as

Robo calls using the artificial voice of Joe Biden, used to tell citizens to not vote in the New Hampshire primary.

That doesn't sound anything like Joe Biden.

Where's the part where he rambles for ten minutes about Amtrak?

So there's some great trains.

That's not my president.

We live in Canada.

France has fined Amazon the equivalent of around thirty five million US dollars.

I'm saying that with emphasis, but that's really not a lot of money for Amazon, for excessively intrusive worker surveillance.

France's data protection agency said Amazon's French arm was tracking worker activity so precisely that employees potentially had to justify every break they took.

To give you an idea of how precisely they were being tracked, Amazon could tell if workers spent one point two five seconds quality checking an item or not.

In a statement, an Amazon spokesperson wrote that the government's conclusions were factually incorrect.

Unfortunately, the spokesperson was fired soon after because they took an extra millisecond to finish typing.

One point two six.

Lazy slob.

Quote, on my way to blow up the plane, I'm a member of the Taliban.

It's unclear how British intelligence intercepted the message, but they alerted the Spanish military who now wants Verma to cover the over a hundred thousand dollar cost of sending a fighter jet to respond to the incident.

And this is why we need to warn our children about the dangers of Snapchat.

There are fighter jets on there.

And unencrypted wifi, that's the real message here.

But there's no danger in coming back on Friday for more tech news.

It'll be right here, the way you remember it, but a little different because it's the news.

And they'll be hard drives.
