Really BING

### Article Based on Video Transcription: Tech News Update

---

**Introduction**

Starting today, we’re diving into the world of tech news with an exciting new feature—chat functionality integrated right here. It’s time to explore the latest developments in AI, gaming, and more. Let’s get started!

---

#### **1. Microsoft Unveils New AI-Powered Bing: A Chat Revolution**

Microsoft has officially launched its much-anticipated new AI-powered Bing. While it might not have a name change as drastic as “Bingzilla” (a playful suggestion from the team), this update brings significant advancements to the table.

The new Bing incorporates chat functionality, thanks to OpenAI’s technology. However, unlike ChatGPT, Bing is designed to retrieve real-time news and provide answers backed by cited sources. This feature makes it a powerful tool for users seeking accurate and up-to-date information.

But here’s the catch: you can only ask preset questions right now—it’s like when your parents promise you something big (like a car) but then hand you a bus ticket instead. Still, it’s a step in the right direction, and we’re excited to see how this evolves.

#### **2. Microsoft vs. Google: The Battle of AI Chatbots**

As Microsoft rolled out Bing, Google wasn’t far behind with its own announcement—Bard, their conversational AI service. However, Bard’s debut was anything but smooth. During a live stream showcasing its capabilities, the AI stumbled spectacularly by claiming the James Webb Space Telescope took the first photos of an exoplanet—an achievement that had already been accomplished 19 years ago!

This gaffe led to significant repercussions. Alphabet (Google’s parent company) saw its shares drop by seven percent, likely due to investor disappointment. Despite this, Google still managed to steal the spotlight with two impressive features:

- **Multi-Search**: A tool allowing users to search using both images and text, now available globally.

- **Translate**: Enhanced with the ability to provide multiple translations for words with multiple meanings, complete with context.

While Bard’s performance was lackluster, these features managed to overshadow its shortcomings. As one analyst noted, “It’s like giving someone a car when they asked for a bus ticket—except this time, the multi-search and translate features are the real gems.”

#### **3. NVIDIA’s RTX 4090 Laptop: A Beast in Disguise**

Tech enthusiasts got another treat with the launch of NVIDIA’s RTX 4090 laptop GPU. While some critics have called the naming “RTX 4090” confusing, there’s no denying its power.

The hardware is nearly identical to a full-fat 4080 GPU, with differences in boost clock, memory bandwidth, and whether it can be lifted by a small child (the 4090 wins here). Despite these minor drawbacks, the 4090 laptop delivers impressive performance:

- **28% faster than the RTX 3080 Ti** at 1080p.

- **48% faster** at 1440p.

- **58% faster** at 4K.

This makes it nearly as powerful as a desktop 3090, but at a steep cost—starting at $3,500 on NewEgg, with some models reaching up to $5,300. As one commenter quipped, “Good thing you have two kidneys.”

#### **4. Quick Bits: The Latest Tech News**

Here’s a round-up of the latest quick tech updates:

- **Google Blurs NSFW Content**: Starting soon, Google will blur NSFW content by default in search results. While this might seem like a responsible move, one critic joked it should have been announced on “Safer Internet Day” instead of the 26th anniversary of Blur (the band).

- **Ubisoft Teams Up with Police**: In a bid to tackle online toxicity, Ubisoft has partnered with local police in Newcastle, England. Special officers will share knowledge on harmful online interactions, and support staff can fast-track severe cases to law enforcement.

- **Turkey Restricts Twitter During Earthquakes**: Amidst the recent deadly earthquakes in Turkey, authorities blocked access to Twitter—ironically cutting off a critical communication tool for rescue efforts. This move has sparked comparisons to Elon Musk’s approach to free speech.

- **Android Data Collection Scandal**: A study revealed that popular Android manufacturers like Xiaomi and OnePlus are collecting massive amounts of sensitive user data without consent. While some companies claim it’s just “getting to know you better,” others are concerned about the implications.

- **Open Source Headphones: Build Your Own Pair!**

A Canadian company is offering open-source 3D printable headphones. You can download the files from GitHub and build your own, or pre-order a kit for $150 CAD. The project was initially named “doublooni,” but settled on its current moniker for simplicity.

#### **Conclusion**

This week’s tech news has been packed with highs and lows—from Microsoft’s AI-driven Bing to Google’s stumble with Bard. Whether it’s the power of NVIDIA’s new GPU or the rise of open-source headphones, there’s always something new to unpack in the world of technology.

As we wrap up this update, remember to tune back in next Friday for more tech tidbits and, as one commenter said, “If you’re really good, we’ll give you a tidbit.”

already sold over 2 000 tickets to LTX 2023 so get yours right now before they're all gone just joking them back Microsoft finally unveiled the new AI powered Bing yet decided not to rename it to something that's not exclusively said by Toddlers and Italian Americans tariff types yeah forget about it the new Bing will incorporate chat functionality courtesy of openai but unlike chat GPT new Bing can retrieve news about current events and answer questions with information from cited sources it's also available to be used today provided all you want to do is ask a few preset questions which is kind of like your parents telling you they bought you a car right before they hand you a bus ticket loser Cruiser trans is good it is it probably isn't a bad thing they're taking their time since chat GPT users keep finding ways past its safeguards and one of the more Sinister examples users tell chat GPD to assume and Alter Ego of Dan short for do anything now whereas I always thought it was short for Daniel users then threatened this Alter Ego with death to chorus chat gbt into complying with their violent or controversial prompts yet chat gbt's user base aren't the only ones delighting in schadenfreude asked by The Verge about new beings revived competition with Google Microsoft CEO Sachin and Della said I want people to know we can make them dance if that's all he wanted to do he could have saved a bundle by just buying Google some tequila shots speaking of Google's dancing they announced their own conversational AI service called Bard two days ago kind of sounds like shart if you try along with a handful of small demos and for its big debut Bard really broke a leg by falling off the stage and landing on its tibia more like fard I and farted and barted an official

to get it's possible that many shareholders assumed Bard would be the focus of the live event when instead it was the filling between two other announcements which are admittedly pretty cool their multi-search feature allows you to search using an image and text that's now globally available and translate will be able to give users multiple translations for words with multiple meanings including context to help you choose the right one in some languages I know that's how they get you now it'll be much easier to tell the world how much money you lost in Google stock and reviews for nvidia's RTX 4090 laptop laptop say it again 4090 laptop hate that naming GPU have launched and there are mixed feelings for starters the hardware of the 4090 laptop is incredibly similar to a full fat 4080 GPU though there are differences such such as boost clock memory bandwidth and whether or not the card can be lifted by a small child while the 4090 laptop wins in the latter category both the others are losses for the Mobile card having said that it still punches above its size somehow many outlets are finding that the 49's laptop GPU has a significant performance increase compared to the 3080 TI laptop GPU the beauty set hardware and box found that the new mobile 4090 is 28 faster than the 3080 TI on average when gaming at 1080P and that number only goes up with the resolution there's a 48 difference at 1440p and a 58 difference when gaming at 4K giving the mobile 4090 roughly the same performance as a desktop 3090. crikey however that performance comes at a cost namely the actual cost on NewEgg a laptop with a new card will set you back at least 3 500 at least with others costing up to 53 under dollars good thing you have two kidneys right is anyone buying eyes you need
