Daily Tech News 30 June 2025

Top Story

Don't buy an Nvidia video card. (Tom's Hardware)

Because the leaks have already started for the upcoming 5000 Super family of cards, which are only very slightly faster but have 50% more memory.

Upgrading the 5070 from a middling 12GB of RAM to 18GB makes it a solid product that will likely last for years. The same goes for the 5070 Ti, already fairly good with 16GB of RAM, if somewhat overpriced; with 24GB it becomes a high-end model that is not going to easily become obsolete.

If you weren't inclined to pay that much in the first place, AMD's 9060 XT is still the pick of the litter, with 16GB cards going for less than an 8GB 5060 Ti.

Tech News

Reddit made a deal to sell its content to AI companies for training. Now it's being spammed by AI bots. (9to5Mac)
Multiple ad agency execs confirmed to the FT that they are indeed "posting content on Reddit to boost the likelihood of their ads appearing in the responses of generative AI chatbots."
Tragedy of the commons on speed-dial.
Trying out a low-end previous-generation AMD server. (Serve the Home)

It's 2025, so a "low-end previous-generation" server has 64 cores.
In a welcome change, companies promoting AI in new products are finding it can make customers less likely to buy. (MSN)

Now they just need to stop putting AI in their products entirely.
