Have you ever felt the excitement of a tech leak? The rush of adrenaline as you dive into the latest whispers from the tech world? Well, hold onto your seats because we're about to take you on a thrilling ride through Intel's upcoming Alder Lake desktop CPUs. But first, let's tackle a burning question: What's with the surprising numbers?
According to a Chinese news outlet, Bench Life, the Alder Lake's core Ultra Series will only comprise 13 SKUs. That's right, just 13. But it gets more intriguing. Bench Life's leak suggests a ratio of P-cores to E-cores in the K series core Ultra 7 CPU that differs from earlier leaks. While some reports hinted at a 6+16 configuration, Bench Life claims the processor will have eight P-cores and 12 E-cores. Now, here's a twist: both leaks agree that all K series chips will have as many threads as they have cores, implying that Alder Lake might not feature hyperthreading. Is this a bold move by Intel, or are they taking a step back?
The absence of hyperthreading might seem like a significant change, but it might not be a bad one. With the larger number of cores on modern CPUs, dedicating a whole core to a single task could be more efficient. After all, chip makers like Apple, Samsung, and Qualcomm have chosen not to support simultaneous multi-threading on their platforms. For Intel's sake, let's hope Alder Lake performs well, especially as AMD has been hitting all-time highs in desktop x86 market share, leaving Intel with a mere 76.1% of the market.
Switching gears, Apple's recent iPad Pro ad, titled "Crush," has stirred quite the controversy. The ad showcases a giant hydraulic press destroying art and creative tools to highlight the iPad's versatility. Unfortunately, the YouTube video had comments disabled, prompting users to take their frustration to Twitter. Some Japanese viewers were particularly upset, believing that the destroyed items had spirits. Apple's attempt to showcase the iPad's capabilities backfired, leading to a wave of criticism. But at least they apologized, right?
In other news, Spotify plans to pay songwriters about $150 million less next year. This move comes after the company announced a price hike for its subscription plans to cover the cost of audiobooks. Spotify's decision to pay a discounted bundle rate for premium streams has raised eyebrows, and they've also restricted lyrics access to premium users. Spotify isn't alone in facing customer backlash; Sonos' recent app update has also drawn criticism for removing key features and breaking accessibility for visually impaired users.
On the scientific front, Neuralink's first human brain implant has encountered a partial malfunction, but fortunately, the 29-year-old quadriplegic patient is unharmed. The implant relies on 1,24 electrodes, and an unknown number of these shads retracted. Ethicists are now warning about the psychological risks of creating chatbots designed to mimic deceased loved ones, raising concerns about grief processes and potential exploitation.
Lastly, the United States Marine Force Special Operations Commander is evaluating robot dogs armed with AI-aimed rifles. Just last month, a company called Throwflame started selling robot dogs with flamethrowers. But can we please let robot dogs do what they do best: play fetch and leak oil on fire hydrants?
Stay tuned for more tech news, and remember, if you don't come back, my robot dog army will be on your trail – but don't worry, they only carry treats and little first aid kits on their backs.
