00:00Welcome to the Tech Edition of Daily World Podcast.

00:12It's May 3rd, 2025, and I'm Angela, ready to explore the innovations transforming our digital landscape.

00:22Mike Waltz, recently dismissed as National Security Advisor,

00:25was found using an Israeli archiving app called TeleMessage during a cabinet meeting.

00:30This app, linked to Israeli intelligence, has raised concerns over cybersecurity and compliance with federal record-keeping laws,

00:37particularly following Waltz's previous issues with the Signal app.

00:41In the realm of artificial intelligence, Grok, the AI chatbot developed by Elon Musk's ex-AI,

00:47is facing backlash from MAGA supporters.

00:50Users are expressing frustration over Grok's commitment to factual accuracy,

00:55as it does not align with their beliefs,

00:57which has led to disappointment among those expecting affirmation of their views.

01:02NVIDIA CEO Jensen Wang has highlighted the significant presence of Chinese researchers in the AI sector,

01:08noting they comprise 50% of the workforce.

01:11He emphasized the importance of reskilling the American workforce

01:14to maintain competitiveness in the rapidly evolving AI landscape.

01:18Mozilla's CFO Eric Mulheim has warned that Firefox's future could be jeopardized

01:25if the Department of Justice's proposals to limit Google's search monopoly are enacted.

01:30With 85% of Mozilla's revenue reliant on its deal with Google,

01:34the potential loss of this income could threaten the company's existence and its non-profit initiatives.

01:38Microsoft is rolling out a new startup boost feature

01:43that will allow Office applications, such as Word and Excel, to load at Windows startup.

01:49While this aims to improve launch speed, it may also slow down overall computer performance

01:55and will only be available on PCs with adequate RAM and disk space.

01:59In a controversial initiative, Anthony Jankso, a recruiter for the Department of Government Efficiency,

02:22is seeking technologists to develop AI agents intended to automate tasks performed by federal employees.

02:29This could potentially impact around 70,000 jobs,

02:32raising skepticism regarding the reliability of AI in government roles.

02:38California's proposed Bill AB 412 would require AI developers to track

02:43and disclose all copyrighted materials used in training.

02:47Critics argue this could hinder small startups while benefiting larger tech companies,

02:51imposing an unworkable standard that may violate constitutional principles and stifle innovation.

02:56Instagram co-founder Kevin Systrom has criticized AI companies for prioritizing user engagement

03:03over providing useful insights.

03:06He stated that excessive follow-up questions detract from the quality of information

03:10delivered by chatbots and emphasize the need for AI to focus on delivering high-quality answers.

03:15In Ukraine, a new points-based system has been introduced where soldiers earn rewards

03:22for confirmed kills of Russian troops or destruction of military equipment.

03:27These points can be exchanged for drones and other military technology from an online marketplace

03:32called Brave One Market, aiming to enhance procurement and transparency.

03:36The world's largest electric vehicle designed for sustainable shipping has been launched by INCAT.

03:44Named China's Arilla, this vessel can carry 2,100 passengers and 225 vehicles,

03:49featuring advanced battery technology and plans for future production and longer ranges.

03:54Microsoft is facing scrutiny over its remote desktop protocol,

03:59which contains a significant security flaw allowing previously used passwords to still grant access

04:05even after being revoked.

04:07Despite independent researchers raising concerns,

04:10Microsoft has opted not to address the issue to maintain compatibility with existing applications.

04:16Recent benchmarks show that the QN3-235B, a 22B model outperforms plot 3.7 in coding tasks

04:26when using 30 TWAC thinking tokens,

04:28with performance validated through independent testing on the AIDR platform.

04:34California's AB412 has been criticized for potentially harming small startups

04:38while solidifying a monopoly for large tech firms in AI development.

04:42The bill's requirements could impose significant burdens on smaller players,

04:47undermining fair use principles and imposing state-level copyright regulations on a federally governed issue.

04:54Lastly, a new FRAMPAC model, the FRAMPAC F1, is set to be introduced,

04:59featuring forward-only sampling and a novel regulation approach aimed at preventing drifting.

05:04Further details will be shared in an upcoming GitHub discussion and uploaded to ARCSF soon.
