2 hours 45 minutes

Video Replay on Twitch!

HAPPY MONDAY!

Kicking off November, the tech news is HOPPING. Sam Bankman-Fried is found guilty on ALL counts! Apple faces yet ANOTHER lawsuit over batteries, this time in the UK. Teens are creating abusive AI images of their classmates. Google was found using revenue sharing on search to force OEMs to update their phones. There's a tiny device that can reboot other people's iPhones.

The new MediaTek chip out which looks like a BIG deal.

And I have some thoughts on the new Robocop game!

Let's get our tech week started right!
