  • Not a good week for AI as users, buyers rebel against the hype
    It's been a rough week for the AI industry as a series of stories have showed the latest LLM technology in a less than flattering light.For example, it appears that AI makes workers less productive, mainly because they haven't been trained how to use it. Gartner, usually a tech cheerleader, has pointed out that expensive AI PCs don't appear to be selling. But there's still Microsoft's latest AI enthusiasm from Ignite - Redmond has to recoup that $10 billion investment in ChatGPT somehow.There's some spirited discussion, and not a few chuckles on this week's Kettle episode, that you can watch in full below. Chewing the fat we have our editor Chris Williams, reporters Brandon Vigliarolo and Tom Claburn.

  • Is AI going to pay its way? Wall Street wants tech firms to show them the money
    In this week's Kettle it's all about AI - or rather whether the tech industry can make the technology not only work, but pay its way as well. With trillions of dollars being spent investors are starting to get twitchy about what they can see for their money and patience. Meanwhile, Nvidia and others are facing what could be their peak year for a while as the market settles down a little - for the moment at least. You can see the full discussion below. After a busy week of financial results and announcement in the field we're joined by Tom Claburn, who's done a deep dive into the returns on investment for AI spending, Tim Prickett-Morgan from our sister site The Next Platform - and he knows the market better than most - and Tobias Mann, who has been trawling through the financial figures so you don't have to. This episode was directed and produced by Nicole Hemsoth Prickett. For those who prefer just the audio, the Kettle is available via RSS and MP3, Apple, Amazon, and Spotify. So is the AI snake eating itself? Let us know in the forums.

  • Admins warn that Crowdstrike's kerfuffle could take weeks to fix
    In fact it was a tale of two outages. There was a minor Azure snafu but that was pretty much sorted by the time alerts to go out around the world after Crowdstrike pushed out what looks like a poorly coded and insufficiently tested update.While Apple and Linux users aren't directly effected, admins have been telling us all is not automatically well, since many networks have been taken down, meaning evn if your personal machine is working, it won't be able to do much without corporate data links. You can hear the whole story below.On this week's Kettle episode, we have Richard Speed in (a very hot) UK, plus our security expert Jessica Lyons and Brandon Vigliarolo who's been tracking the outage's global reach, and your host Iain Thomson.

  • Snowflake still causing a blizzard of security problems with no thaw in sight
    With the continuing fallout from Snowflake now hitting over 100 million AT&T customers we discuss quite what is to be done. Constant vigilance is a given, but there's always the himan factor that ensures even the best security systems can be rolled over due to a single slip up. Then there's the promise of AI, or possibly the lack of promise. Machine learning was touted as a possible savior of the security industry, but - as with so much AI hype - the reality is looking somewhat less rosy. You can see the full discussion below. On this week's show we have Tobias Mann, Brandon Vigliarolo, The Register's security editor Jessica Lyons and your host Iain Thomson.
