Leak suggests AMD's upcoming 'Turin' Zen 5 CPUs will support 4TB of RAM at 6000 MT/s
tomshardware.com/pc-components/cpus/leak-suggests-amds-upcoming-turin-zen-5-cpus-will-be-able-to-run-ram-at-6000-mts
Quick Glance: Leak suggests 4TB RAM support at 6000 MT/s for upcoming AMD 'Turin' Zen 5 CPUs
- AMD's upcoming Zen 5 Epyc CPUs, codenamed Turin, will utilize the same SP5 socket as their Zen 4 predecessors, but will feature 192 cores. A leaked motherboard spec listing from @momomo_us on Twitter hints at additional details.
- The leaked motherboard spec listing reveals a Socket SP5 board that is capable of supporting DDR5 speeds up to 6000 MT/s with 4 TB of RAM, specifically with a Turin CPU. In the absence of Turin, the board's performance limit is 4800 MT/s or even 3600 MT/s, aligning with Zen 4's RAM constraints.
- Additionally, the motherboard specifies a maximum CPU TDP of 400 Watts. While Zen 5 Epyc CPUs are expected to support up to 500 Watts and potentially reach 600 Watts, this discrepancy may indicate a listing error or a genuine compatibility issue with the motherboard.
- Furthermore, it is noteworthy that the previous-gen Zen 4 CPUs were restricted to 96 PCIe 5.0 lanes, contrary to the claimed maximum of 120 PCIe 5.0 lanes with this particular motherboard. This suggests an overall 20% enhancement in PCIe lane support on Zen 5 Turin, beyond just faster RAM.

The Grok chatbot will soon be enabled for X Premium users, Elon Musk says
engt.co/3ITeIEL
Quick Glance: New Availability of Grok AI Announced for X Premium Subscribers
- Elon Musk has officially announced that Grok, the AI chatbot from Musk's xAI, is now accessible to all X Premium users. Previously, Grok was exclusively available to X Premium+ subscribers.
- In March of this year, xAI took a significant step by releasing Grok as an open-source project. This move enables developers and researchers to leverage the powerful 'weights and architecture' behind xAI's Grok chatbot for their projects at no cost.
- The release of Grok is under the Apache 2.0 license, allowing commercial use. Reports indicate that Grok is now available on GitHub, allowing anyone to freely experiment with the 'raw' basic version of the pre-trained Grok big language models.
- Grok, the 'conversational AI for understanding the universe,' was first introduced to the public at the end of 2023. The Grok chatbot can access real-time X data, which sets it apart from competitors, aiming to establish itself as a more modern and edgy alternative to other chatbots.

arstechnica.com/information-technology/2024/03/vernor-vinge-father-of-the-tech-singularity-has-died-at-age-79/
Quick Glance: Vernor Vinge, Pioneer of Cyberspace and Singularity, Passes at 79
- Vinge is credited as the first author to describe an immersive cyberspace, which he outlined in his 1979 novella "True Names" – five years before William Gibson’s Neuromancer brought the idea to the mainstream.
- Suffice to say, True Names made a significant impact, with its elements becoming foundational to SciFi and CompSci.
- His theory of “The Singularity” – an event after which human history changes course – was widely admired and even became the theme of a University in Silicon Valley.
- Vinge’s novels often used concepts from computer science and were multiple award winners, including the Hugo Award for the year’s best science fiction novel.

Quick Glance: Reddit Shares Surge 48% in Market Debut
- Reddit shares ended their first day of trading in New York up 48 per cent, signaling that investor appetite for initial public offerings of promising yet loss-making companies could be returning.
- While Reddit still relies on advertising for the vast majority of its revenue, it positioned its content in its IPO marketing as training grounds for AI programs and disclosed an investigation by the US Federal Trade Commission into its AI data licensing deals.
- Shares of Reddit opened on the New York Stock Exchange at $47 and surged to $50.44 after pricing at $34 in the IPO.
- Reddit's entry into public markets was long overdue, and although the allocation of shares to users and retailers poses risks, the extremely bullish sentiment from retail traders on platforms like Stocktwits indicates that the cult brand Reddit continues to hold a significant cultural presence in the social media world.
