Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Apple about to save Meta’s whole career”.
Hey guys, I’m Riley, I go on the internet where Tech news going to make me lose my mind up in here up in here, so you don’t have to Apple finally launched the Vision Pro and while even the most positive reviews from media Outlets. Earlier this week had a tinge of cynicism, early Impressions from customers who just got their $ 3,500 headsets for the first time are mostly positive in an uplifting example of post-p purchase rationalization, My Fit fly my cost sunken. After all, they Now using what Tim Cook called tomorrow’s technology today, a phrase rendered false as soon as it’s uttered and which also doesn’t explain why the vision, Pro’s Persona, avatars, look so much worse than meta’s photorealistic codec avatars, yeah yeah. Those aren’t available yet on Quest.
But the demos look so much better. Okay, just let me have this speaking of which meta took the opportunity to piggyback off the Vision Pro launch, with an update for their Quest headsets. You know the ones that are a fraction of the cost.
The Quest 2 3 and pro now support playing back stereoscopic spatial video recorded on an iPhone 15 Pro or Pro Max. Something Apple May regard as morally wrong and there’s a couple new pinch gestures, because Apple’s patent on basic human hand stuff fell through the quests, can also now use gam pads in the browser for cloud gaming. But, on the other hand, the Vision Pro now has an unofficial YouTube, app thanks to Christian selig, the developer of the Apollo Reddit app and no those two things aren’t related like this segue to our next topic. Ai ai news is a dime a dozen these days, but Google, Amazon and actually Apple made some noteworthy announcements.
This week, Google’s barred chatbot can now use the tech Giant’s own image 2 model to generate images, although it declined to generate an image for cnet’s article on this story, but did generate an image of itself as a blonde cyborg. So, thanks for that, this Tech is going to change everything. The fure Google is also adding generative AI chat to Maps which looks like a genuinely useful way to get info about a place that doesn’t involve digging through an endless slideshow of photos. As long as that info isn’t hallucinated nonsense, causing you to show up to an Indian restaurant in a sombrero, but at that point the wrong restaurant thing is the least of your problems. I just love the culture.
Meanwhile, Amazon announced Rufus a chatbot rolling out in beta that will help customers shop on the platform overrun by products named. I cannot fulfill this request. It goes against open AI use policy.
Yeah, AI stuff is still a mess, but that’s only because Apple hasn’t come in to fix it, yet that all changes this year, according to Tim Cook himself during the company’s earnings called yesterday Tim said, they’re putting a tremendous amount of time and effort into Ai and They’Re excited to share the details later this year. Now he’s either talking about the company’s research getting llms running on iPhone Hardware or an Android version of you that will treat your mom better than you ever did. You haven’t even bought her an iPhone, yet you pathetic insect she birthed, you ungrateful Rich reviews for the Samsung Galaxy, s24, s24 plus and s24. Ultra are also out with reviewers praising the lineup’s new complimentary AI features like Circle to search and on device translation. But the hardware is where some are finding flaws, which makes sense, given that in at least one area, the phone’s actually got a downgrade the Ultras stuck with a 5x optical zoom instead of 10x, as if on Q insteps, the frustratingly named company, nothing with its first Major product announcement, I can remember, since they thought they had solved iMessage on Android, that lasted for like a day. We just didn’t think it was that complicated anyways. All of a sudden, they launched the nothing phone 2A yesterday which has been rumored since December, a pixel, a serieses, more budget friendly alternative to the $ 600, nothing phone 2.
The company didn’t reveal the 2a’s price design or release date, but just knowing it’s out there makes me feel a bit better and that’s not nothing. I won’t apologize $ 600 for nothing now. It’S time for quick bits brought to you by ODU.

Instead, their interface is super simple: to use with intuitive dragon drop elements and a userfriendly codefree approach. That’Ll, have your website up and running in a matter of clicks. They’Ve also recently introduced their own AI copywriter powered by chat GPT.

So visit the link below and start creating a website for free with Odo quick bits. Man they just they just get you right. Just get you right right there on Wi-Fi company, Morse micro has published a record-breaking real world demonstration of their Halo based microprocessors, showing that they create Wi-Fi networks capable of maintaining video calls at a distance of 1.8 miles 3 km. Ultra long range, Wi-Fi signals usually aren’t powerful enough to load media, never mind, maintain a video call, but even at its farthest range, the connection maintained a minimum speed of 1 megabit a second. Despite the test taking place in a busy populated area. This could be a GameChanger in the practicality of massive Citywide, Wi-Fi networks, making your excuses to your mother about why you haven’t called all the more infeasible Tim is going to come and take her from you. She deserves so much better. The browser company has announced more AI powered features for its Arc browser, and would you believe me if I told you that they actually look kind of cool because you shouldn’t? But let me tell you anyway: ark’s instant links feature skips the search results page entirely scanning for the best handful of links and tabs and opening them for you immediately live folder is a Google Alerts like feature, except instead of keywords: it scans the web for Content Relating to topics you like, when something new comes up, it throws it in a folder and notifies you arcs browse for me.
Results webpage, generating feature is also coming to desktop from IOS where it launched earlier this week and altogether. It seems like the browser company. Just really wants to knock a chunk out of Google search business by not forcing people to deal with popups, and I don’t see the problem here. The FCC will be voting on whether rooc calls using AI generated voices should be officially recognized as illegal under an existing law from 1991, which bans the use of artificial and pre-recorded voices in non-emergency calls, without written permission from the call recipient that was already illegal.
These kinds of rooc calls have spiked over the past few years, including a recent voter suppression effort that used a fake Joe Biden. The real one was busing he’s got stuff to do likely, created using 11 Labs software to discourage voters from participating in the New Hampshire primary and save their votes for the November election, which is just not how votes work they expire, if you don’t use them just Like milk, you got one vote, don’t use it on that Japan plans to introduce a new six-month residency Visa for digital Nomads in order to make it easier for high-skilled remote workers, consultants and online content creators to live in the country, despite not being employed in Japan. The government is currently taking public comment but hopes to launch the program in March. In order to be eligible, you must be a millionaire, but only a Japanese millionaire, making over 10 million yen a year equivalent to around $ 68,000, which still it’s it’s a bunch currently over 50 countries off offer digital Nomad visas, most of which allow significantly longer stays With far less stringent income requirements, I mean, if you’ve got a visible means of support other than your legs.
You can just hang out in Germany for 3 years, maybe give up the anime get really into techno dance vome to Germany. You dance like you’re from here and, according to a new study published in science, researchers have developed a new machine learning model that mimics the way children learn language. How did they do it well by strapping a camera to a toddler’s, forehead and feeding the resulting audio and video to an AI like a baby let’splay like a baby, IRL stream, the birth rate is declining and that’s a problem because we need more physical constructs to Strap the AI on to by seeing the world through a small child’s eyes, or at least a small child’s forehead, the AI was able to make associations between words and objects.
The same way, a cute little human larvae would hopefully demystifying a process that once upon a time all of us went through, but none of us remember so can you prove it what happened, but I know you’ll remember to come back on Monday for more Tech news. Just like you remember everything I ever say to you you’re, going to do great on next week’s quiz. Sport .
