02:12their products, and engage in a repair culture.
02:16Reddit CEO Steve Huffman has warned that AI bots are threatening the platform's unique human-led
02:21communities, which he identifies as a competitive advantage.

03:34probability that super-intelligent AI could escape human control, advocating for a collaborative
03:40approach to ensure global safety in AI development.
03:45The discussion around AI development continues, with some suggesting that tech companies are
03:50investing in AI infrastructure, not for individual consumer use, but to provide employers with tools
03:55that could potentially replace human workers.

04:04and capabilities.
04:06The NVIDIA RTX PRO 5000 Blackwell offers up to 48 GB of GDDR7 memory, enhancing AI training
04:14and research and development capabilities, with supercomputer-like performance.
04:19This GPU is designed to accelerate AI development, generative workflows and complex simulations,
04:25making it a powerful tool for various applications in engineering and scientific research.
04:30Fintech company Klarna is shifting its focus from an AI-first approach to hiring more human employees
04:37for customer service roles.
