Daily Tech News 6 December 2024

Top Story

OpenAI has confirmed its new ChatGPT Pro plan which includes the o1 "reasoning model" which produces 34% less bullshit than regular ChatGPT but is somehow worse than the o1 preview version. (Tech Crunch)

The plan is $200 per month.
Don't use ChatGPT - or any other generative AI tool - for research. (The Verge)

It's odd to see The Verge calling out other journalists for their nonsense but I have to give the author credit on this one: This is an accurate and well-researched article, pointing out the failures of journalists and AI tools alike.

In this case it's the creation of fictional pardons granted to imaginary people, but the point is universal.

Tech News

Intel has confirmed that the next-generation Xe3 "Celestial" graphics chip's design stage is complete, with the team moving on to the Xe4 "Druid" designs. (WCCFTech)

Slightly less certain is the continuity of Intel itself.
Also AMD's Radeon 8000 series could show up next month and erase the relevance of Intel's graphics cards. (VideoCardz)

Or not. The specs - inasmuch as we have specs - look good. The 8600 has 50% more memory and 50% more memory bandwidth than the 7600, matching Intel's B580.

It all comes down to price, and we have no idea what the price will be.
A look at Broadcom's XDSiP with face-to-face 3.5D for upcoming XPUs. (Serve the Home)

No, I have no idea.

Disclaimer: Yes, Friday evening is the perfect time to let me know of an urgent systems requirement that you've been aware of for a month. Thank you.
