On this week’s episode of the 5BytesPodcast, I cover a Windows 11 update causing domain trust issues, Microsoft’s timeline for finally retiring IE Mode, major cloud data loss at AWS following attacks in the Middle East, and contrasting warnings about the future of AI from Nvidia and Anthropic. Plus, newly unsealed documents reveal some eye-opening internal comments from Microsoft and OpenAI about AI scraping, publishers and the future of the web.
