On this episode of the WAN Show, Linus and Luke dive into Amazon’s massive AWS DNS outage that knocked a ton of services offline, reminisce about AWS swooping in on Pokémon GO and Twitch before, and unpack how a glitchy CS2 update tanked its market cap. They also get a kick out of the wild idea that data centers might soon run on jet engines.
They then shift gears to hardware and future tech—taking a close look at Samsung’s AI-powered Galaxy XR headset and the long-term prospects for smart glasses and neural interfaces. Along the way you’ll hear about YouTube’s new AI-video detection tool, an AI that mistook Doritos for a weapon (leading to a police swarm!), a tiny implant called PRIMA that can restore vision, and Microsoft’s eyebrow-raising 30% margin demand from Xbox developers.
