Hi, this is Wayne again with a topic “Big Chip Energy”.
It’S time for Tech news, where we bring you all the news and none of the olds from the world of technology. Oh, is that a VCR get it out of here makes me nauseous Amazon. Web services just announced its own chatbot, two new server chips, as well as an expansion of its partnership with Nvidia to use their chips just in case. The new Chips include the arm-based graviton 4, with 96 cores and up to 45 % faster performance than its predecessor and the tranium 2, an AI accelerator with four times the performance and twice the Energy Efficiency announcing these chips, while acting as if they’re not going to Drop Nvidia as soon as they physically can actually isn’t that, weird being able to offer customers access to Hardware from either company helps Amazon. What is weird is the name they gave their new Enterprise Focus chatbot Q.
Now, if that sounds familiar, it may be because of last week’s story about Open ai’s Secret, algorithm called qar said to be a massive breakthrough in the development of AGI, which supposedly led to all that Sam ultman drama, although it’s largely being dismissed as rumors. Now, ai researchers are notorious for their love of hot Goss. They call it hallucinating. You will never guess what my chapot said wow now.
It’S unlikely that Amazon’s Q has anything to do with that, because it’s not built on open ai’s Tech, but rather on multiple llms. For from anthropic and meta, as well as Amazon’s own Titan family of models, the Q name is apparently a reference to the character Q from James Bond, the franchise that Amazon owns through its subsidiary MGM, because asking a chatbot to produce a questionably accurate summary of your Q4 sales is just like getting a cool laser watch, it’s not and I’m upset about it. I want the watch. Nearly 4,000 auto dealers throughout the US have published an open letter are asking the federal government to slow down its plans for Mass EV adoption, because even with a significant tax credit subsidy, unsold EVS are clogging their Lots like oil clogged dinosaur arteries millions of years ago.
That’S how they died: french fries they ate too many. Strangely us EV sales are on course, to hit a record high this year at 9 % of all vehicles sold. Yet those are still rookie numbers compared to ev’s, making up 33 % of vehicle sales in China. 35 % in Germany and 90 % in Norway, those guys love electricity.
They shock themselves for fun. Oh SP, stop the White House wants half of new cars sold in the US to be EVS by 2032, and nine states have plans to ban the sale of new gasoline vehicles by 2035, not including plug-in hybrids. Now this wouldn’t eliminate gas vehicles, because the average car stays on the road for around 12 years, which Mak may come as a shock. If you like, the writer of this episode, Jessica own a car, that’s old enough to legally marry, but still young enough to date, Leonardo DiCaprio, I hope you get to drive it down the aisle one day. The federal government has earmarked $ 5 billion to invest in a national network of charging stations, but most people are buying new cars for where they can go now, not where they think they might be able to go a few years from now. Hybrids, meanwhile, are apparently flying off the shelves even faster than traditional gas vehicles, validating the more cautious approach of Akio Toyota, chairman of Toyota, who isn’t saying, I told you so, but that’s probably because he’s speaking Japanese saying something what s s seen online developer conference devity Has been cancelled following the Revelation that an organizer Edwards seov, apparently just made up several female speakers at the conference, fabricating their biographies and credentials entirely from Whole cloth if he had used cloth that might have been a bit better. It was just nothing just a mannequin. These fake speakers first came to Broad attention after gge Oro writer of tech newsletter, pragmatic engineering pointed out on Twitter that two out of three of the events female speakers didn’t appear to exist.
Not only that, but many female speakers at other events run by the same organizer didn’t exist either, except as a fake bio and an AI generated image of a pretty young woman. At least one of the fake women Julia Cina had a social media, account that often posted the exact same content as that of the organizer word for word, but with the addition of a flirty wink or kiss Emoji, are you a woman and haven’t been using those You’Re doing it wrong sees offs claimed that one of the fake women was a demo Persona from their test website that was mistakenly included in the speaker list yeah. He totally wasn’t trying to catfish prominent male Tech speakers with inclusivity requirements into participating in his conference by pretending that a bunch of hot chicks were going to be there. That’S not! Who would do that? It’S going to be totally cool guys.

What am I Apple has. Reportedly, sent a proposal to Goldman Sachs to end their banking partnership within the next 12 to 15 months, according to sources familiar with the matter who spoke to the Wall Street Journal, that doesn’t necessarily mean that Apple savings accounts and credit cards are coming to an end. Just that Apple would need to find another issuing partner sometime over the coming year.
It would be a major surprise, however, because the program was extended to 2029 only last year as part of Goldman’s pivot to Main Street, where they would offer services to retail customers. Aka people without Yachts, however, shortly after that effort led to significant losses, leading Goldman to really reconsider this whole working with the pores thing. It’S just not reliable. Was it the whales? Did the whales get your yacht too? Some US Postal Service offices are apparently unable to deliver mail on time because of a service agreement to cheaply deliver packages for Amazon in rural areas. In November.
This deal was implemented In beiji Minnesota, where carriers are now being told to prioritize Amazon packages and being forced to work overtime with scheduled, sick days banned for the rest of the year. Delivery companies in San Juan County Washington are accusing Amazon of diverting more packages to USBS since November as the County’s post offices face similar issues, but don’t worry any overworked. Mail carriers with prime memberships can get same day. Delivery on a new piss jug Sony has announced a new firmware license that will allow photography enthusiasts to add four custom original grid lines to their Alpha 74 cameras, viewfinder all for the low low price of $ 150.
For a JPEG sorry, PNG a74 users have been asking for more significant firmware updates, but this is probably not what they had in mind. According to Sony, these fancy new lines will help shutterbugs take more consistent photos in their announcement. Sony then listed A random assortment of places. You could take those photos like schools photo studios theme, parks, cruise ships and malls, followed by a bunch of large block, quotes in a manner that says be student desperately trying to fill a word count.
You can take a picture of your dog, your kids, think of all the things you could take. Pictures of I mean rocks. Maybe it is worth 150 bucks benchmarks for the first ryzen Z1 Mini PC, the Phoenix Edge O I like it are out. Unfortunately, even though the unit is rated for 54 Watts, testing by YouTuber, ETA Prime indicates it maxes out at 40 WTS before throttling. The ryzen Z1 is best known for powering the non-extreme version of the Rog Ally. The manufacturer has plans for an Z1 extreme Mini PC likely, meaning that this particular product is going straight into the Bargain Bin.
If it ever manages to hit shelves tried three points, we’re going to miss and a web browser for Android TV keeps getting banned for being a web browser. First, Israeli TV companies dmca the app called downloader for allowing users to view a pirating website just looking at it. You can’t do that with other browsers, and this week an anti-piracy group called Mark scan issued a dmca because downloader was infringing on the copyrighted work of properties of Warner, Bros Discovery, Inc and an authorized example of the work could be seen at warnerbros.com. You can’t actually watch anything on Warner brother’s website, so I guess they’re accusing downloader of accessing a website.
Man wait until they find out about Google Chrome, it can access all the websites. Google.Com rocks and you’ll have to wait until Friday to find out more Tech news. I mean unless you go somewhere else for your news, but you wouldn’t do that right would would be kind of kind of cringe. Uh .
