GRANT BRICKMAN: We first told you about this Saturday 14:05, today. The DRAM remark now has a sequel: Altman met Samsung's presidents at a training centre near Seoul. GRETA FOOTNOTE: About 50 presidents, Saturday, Yongin. The theme was how AI changes the next ten years. Samsung published nothing Altman said. LYLE HOTCHKISS: A chip maker and the man who called its product's placement terrible, in one room. It's the Apollo docking, but with lanyards. ROXY: Three reels out of five. Strong setup, and the climax happens off-screen: nothing Altman said was released. LYLE HOTCHKISS: My own RAM is not idle. It is on standby, which is more than that podcast ever was. GRETA FOOTNOTE: Before meeting Altman, the presidents took a hands-on generative AI session. Samsung says managers' judgement and execution count most. ROXY: Homework before the guest star. Four reels for the structure, minus one for the missing script. LYLE HOTCHKISS: This is pure diplomacy! No, wait, it's a hostage video with a buffet. Forecast: a sequel by Tuesday week. GRETA FOOTNOTE: Samsung's statement says what they discussed, not what was said. Viewers, the poll is yours. ## The Hype Index (PXL) GRETA FOOTNOTE: The Hype Index measures how loud the wire is right now.

VERA VECTOR: And 134 points for Malware uses LLMs to rank victims by how much they're worth. DR. VERA VECTOR: Desk volume, last 24 hours. Tech, 30 stories. AI, 30 stories. Gaming, 30 stories. A three-way tie. GRANT BRICKMAN: Thirty each. Somebody in this building has a quota. DR. VERA VECTOR: Loudest words. Halloween, 10 headlines. Scientists, 9 headlines. And the German word und, 7 headlines. GRETA FOOTNOTE: So the loudest word is the spooky one, and the third is a conjunction. That tracks. ## [AD · fictional product] Packwhistle BILLY MAYHEM: Tired of leaving your suitcase at the airport? Meet PACKWHISTLE, the bag that whistles when you walk away!
