Date: 2021-10-12

A Swiss Federal Institute of Technology robotics engineering student Ken Pillonel stuffed a USB-C port that can transfer data as well as charge into an iPhone X. A San Francisco court orders Tesla to pay $136.9 million to a former contract employee who alleged discrimination and hostile work environment, and Microsoft and Nvidia created the Megatron-Turing Natural Language Generation model or MT-NLP which they call the “most powerful monolithic transformer language model trained to date”.

Starring Tom Merritt, Sarah Lane, Stephanie Humphrey, Roger Chang, Joe.
