Dan Moren joins Mikah Sargent this week on Tech News Weekly! Apple is rumored to announce a major OS redesign and unified naming scheme at WWDC this year. How YouTube creators are competing against traditional television. Insights into research showing technology use and association with reduced cognitive decline. And how North Koreans have stolen over $6 billion in cryptocurrency through U.S. remote jobs. Dan Moren talks about how Apple is rumored to unveil an upcoming OS redesign and unified naming scheme later at WWDC this year, internally dubbed 'Solarium'. Mikah talks about YouTube creators and how they are building full production studios as they create more original content for the platform, as YouTube is slowly replacing channel surfing and more linear TV consumption. Mikah gets excited and dives into research showing how more technology use can reduce cognitive decline in older adults, showing that tech engagement strengthens cognitive function. And Mikah shares a story of how North Koreans are infiltrating U.S. tech jobs, recruiting workers in financial distress for tech support roles, to steal cryptocurrency through laptop farms, which has totaled over $6 billion to date.
