00:15I'm Angela, here to decode the newest tech trends and innovations.

00:21The U.S. Department of Transportation has revised reporting rules for crashes involving Level 2

00:27automated vehicles, significantly easing the burden on companies like Tesla. Under the new

00:32regulations, incidents that do not result in injuries or fatalities will no longer need to

00:37be reported, which will substantially reduce the number of incidents Tesla must disclose.

00:44In legal news, Apple is facing a lawsuit over allegations of false advertising

00:48regarding the AI capabilities of its iPhone 16. The lawsuit claims that the company's marketing

00:54misrepresents the actual performance and features of the device's artificial intelligence

00:59functionalities. Former cybersecurity leader Chris Krebs has expressed his outrage over cuts to

01:06cybersecurity personnel by the Trump administration. Speaking at the RSA conference in San Francisco,

01:12Krebs emphasized the need for increased investment in cybersecurity to address ongoing threats from

01:17major hacking campaigns linked to China. In the search engine landscape, Google's market-sharing

01:24global search traffic has fallen below 90% for the first time in nearly a decade.

01:29This decline is attributed to growing user concerns over privacy and monopolistic practices,

01:34with alternative search engines like Ecosia experiencing significant growth as users seek privacy-focused

01:40options. Amazon has launched its Project Kuipur satellites, contributing to the increasing congestion

01:47in low-Earth orbit. With thousands of satellites and debris coexisting, the risk of collisions is

01:53escalating, prompting calls for better management and cooperation among satellite operators to prevent

01:59potential disasters. Reddit has banned researchers from the University of Zurich after they conducted an

02:05unethical experiment using AI bots to manipulate commenters on the subreddit r slash changemami.

02:11The bots, which posed as various personas, amassed significant engagement before being exposed,

02:17leading Reddit to consider legal action and highlighting concerns about AI's potential to sway public opinion.

02:25Slate Auto has announced plans to produce its $20,000 in electric truck at a retrofitted printing

02:30facility in Warsaw, Indiana. The company aims for an annual output of 150,000 units, featuring a simplified

02:38design with no touchscreen or paint, allowing for a streamlined production process and a commitment

02:43to using domestic suppliers. The U.S. Space Force is planning to develop an orbital carrier

02:50that will function similarly to an aircraft carrier in space, facilitating the rapid deployment of

02:56spacecraft and satellites from Earth orbit. Gravitix Inc. has been selected for funding to work on this

03:02initiative, which aims to enhance the U.S.'s space defense capabilities, although logistical challenges remain.

03:08An FBI official has raised alarms about state-sponsored cyberattacks from China targeting

03:15critical U.S. infrastructure, emphasizing the role of artificial intelligence in enhancing these

03:20threats. Chinese cybergroups have infiltrated various sectors, employing AI to improve the

03:26efficiency of their attacks while remaining undetected for extended periods. In developments related to AI,

03:33Freepik has introduced FLight, a 10 billion parameter diffusion model trained solely on copyright-safe and

03:39SFW images. This model is the first publicly available of its scale focused on legally compliant content,

03:47offering interactive demos and integration with popular libraries. Economists Anders Humlum and Emily

03:54Vestergaard have found that generative AI chatbots have had minimal impact on jobs and wages across various

04:00occupations. Their research indicates that while AI tools save some time, the overall economic benefits

04:06are limited and significant productivity gains have not materialized in the labor market.

04:13Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella has revealed that between 20% and 30% of the company's code

04:18is generated by AI. This statement was made during a discussion with Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg,

04:25raising questions about the implications for quality control and security in AI-generated code.

04:32Duolingo's CEO Luis Phanon announced that the company will transition to an AI-first model,

04:37gradually replacing contract workers with AI for tasks it can handle. This shift aims to enhance

04:43productivity and allow employees to focus on creative work, emphasizing that the changes are not about

04:49replacing staff, but improving efficiency in content creation. We've reached the end of our technology
