GPUs, mini projector, massive password leak, HIV drug, OpenAI Office, 18a process, HDMI 2.2, Liberty phone, Corvette ZR1X and Jaws at 50. I’ve been reminded this last week about how technology has so drastically changed communication in the recent past. Things as simple as a transatlantic phone call were incredibly expensive and now they are routine and free. Zoom meetings with people from around the world where the biggest challenges are the time zones and making sure a microphone is on or off. Of course these are just two examples and there are many more. We’ve had a full week of tech news so check out all the stories below.
