00:04:03,840 This Monday on April 8th, San Diego will witness a partial solar eclipse with about 55 percent 53 00:04:03,840 --> 00:04:06,840 of the sun obscured by the moon. 54 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:13,160 This event marks the last solar eclipse North America will see for 20 years. 55 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:19,040 The eclipse path begins in Mexico, crossing the U.S. from Texas to Maine. 56

move from Oakland to Sacramento for the 2025 to 2027 61 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:55,280 baseball seasons, with a potential extension into 2028 before relocating to Las Vegas. 62 00:04:55,280 --> 00:05:00,280 This decision comes as their lease in Oakland expires and negotiations with the city have 63 00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:03,880 not yielded a new agreement. 64 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:09,480 Sacramento's Sutter Health Park, with a capacity possibly reaching 14,000, will host 65 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,720 the A's games. 66 00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:18,000 This move is seen as a temporary measure ahead of the team's planned relocation to Las Vegas, 67 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:23,680 where plans for a new stadium are underway, but face funding and legal challenges. 68 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:31,640 Oakland, the A's home since 1968, has seen the team win four World Series and 17 division 69 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:33,640 titles. 70 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:42,440 Last night in local

Amazon has scaled back its Just Walkout technology from its Amazon Fresh stores 75 00:06:07,360 --> 00:06:10,760 due to the need for significant manual monitoring. 76 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:18,080 However, it plans to continue using this technology in specific Amazon Go and UK Amazon Fresh 77 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:23,280 stores alongside smart carts to streamline the shopping process. 78 00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:30,320 Meanwhile, startups like Grab and Go and Everseen are advancing cashier-free checkout technologies, 79 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:36,440 focusing on privacy-conscious methods, and improving customer experience. 80 00:06:36,440 --> 00:06:42,720 Grab and Go uses computer vision for checkout-free shopping, much like driverless car technology, 81 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:46,920 avoiding facial recognition to protect privacy. 82 00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:53,040 Everseen, facing challenges with its technology at Walmart, raised significant funding and 83 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:58,760 emphasizes non-confrontational corrective measures for checkout errors. 84 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:04,400 These developments suggest a continued push towards enhancing in-person shopping efficiency 85 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:09,960 while addressing privacy and security concerns. 86 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:16,140 In business news, Dell Technologies stock has seen a significant surge, reaching new 87 00:07:16,140 --> 00:07:21,320 heights due to the booming demand for AI server hardware. 88 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:26,960 The company's recent success is attributed to the high demand for its AI servers, particularly 89 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:34,880 those powered by NVIDIA H100 chips, with a backlog of orders reaching $3 billion. 90 00:07:34,880 --> 00:07:40,280 Dell's interest in AI servers extends beyond current backlogs, with anticipation for future 91 00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:48,480 demand for servers utilizing AMD's MI300 GPU and upcoming NVIDIA chips. 92 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:54,920 This growth is not only limited to AI servers but also expected to influence AI PCs and 93 00:07:54,920 --> 00:08:00,680 enterprise storage sectors, promising a significant shift in Dell's revenue composition towards 94 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:04,400 AI-capable products and services. 95 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:14,560 In crypto movement, Bitcoin is now just

defense technology startup valued at $3 billion, is acquiring Melbourne-based 110 00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:24,680 Sentient Vision Systems to enhance its AI-enabled drone technology. 111 00:09:24,680 -->
