Today’s Cache | Google’s AI supercomputer claims; Twitter’s mounting legal troubles; and YouTube cautions against phishing

Google’s AI supercomputer claims Google released new details of the supercomputer it uses to train its artificial intelligence models, saying the systems are faster and more power-efficient than comparable systems from Nvidia Corp. Based on its custom Tensor Processing Unit, now in its fourth generation, Google published details of how it has strung more than 4,000 of the chips together into a supercomputer using its own custom-developed optical switches to help connect individual machines. Twitter faces more legal trouble Twitter is facing another lawsuit accusing the social media giant of illegally laying off contract workers without notice after Elon Musk bought the company last year. YouTube cautions against phishing YouTube is alerting users that hackers were sending out phishing emails with suspicious links that appear to come from an official YouTube email address. The company also shared screenshots of these phishing emails that were coming from the address ‘no-reply@youtube.com’, and has cautioned users not to click on any links or files originating from the address.
