]]>Multiple outlets report that the two streamers are moving to temporarily slow things down in Europe. In other words, they are set to reduce bandwidth used in Europe for at least the next month following unprecedented usage due to the coronavirus pandemic.
“We estimate that this will reduce Netflix traffic on European networks by around 25% while also ensuring a good quality service for our members,” Netflix said in a statement.
“[W]e are making a commitment to temporarily switch all traffic in the EU to standard definition by default,” YouTube said in a statement. “While we have seen only a few usage peaks, we have measures in place to automatically adjust our system to use less network capacity.”
As of now, the decision to slow things down will not be applied outside of Europe.

]]>Downey Jr is famous for his role in the Iron Man franchise, where his alter-ego is Tony Stark, who is a brilliant mind.
Stark not only invented the suits he uses to fight with the Avengers but also created an artificial intelligence called J.A.R.V.I.S, which is responsible for running his business.
J.A.R.V.I.S eventually becomes the A.I. Stark uses to operate his suits. Part of the J.A.R.V.I.S coding also goes on to become part of VISION, which becomes an Avenger of its own.
It is no surprise to learn that Downey Jr is himself interested in A.I. and is associated with it. YouTube has announced that Downey Jr will not only be narrating the series, but he will also act as the executive producer along with his wife Susan Downey as part of their Team Downey production company.
