This is the Daily Tech News Month in Review for March, 26.

0:14.1

We're going to look back on what the big stories of the month were and just try to help each other understand because this is a big month.

0:19.6

Very big month, very long month somehow.

0:22.4

And this month we have got Anthropics battle with the U.S. military over supply chain risks,

0:28.3

the backlash against DLSS.S.5, and OpenAI ends video generation development.

0:35.1

And that is just the tip of the news iceberg. I'm Tom Merritt. I'm

Jen Cutter. Let's look back on some of the biggest stories of March 26. Now, before we get to the stuff we

1:47.2

SpaceX IPO prep. Jan, I don't know about you, but I don't think the SpaceX IPO prep was on my list of big stories for the month.
