Hollywood star Reese Witherspoon says her industry shouldn't be scared of AI and needs to embrace its possibilities.
I’m truly bothered that tens of millions of Americans consider Joe Biden to be a “nice person” in contrast to Donald Trump, who is supposedly a loudmouth bully and the reincarnation of Adolf Hitler.Since I’m annoyed by Trump’s speaking style and name-calling, I am hardly a Trump zealot. But I doubt that Trump sounds more vituperative, dishonest, or malicious than Biden. Whether it’s a matter of hurling obscenities, accusing the opposition of being terrorists and wanting to put black people “back...

A scheme to allow British under-30s to live and work in the EU has been flatly rejected. Why punish them for older voters’ mistakes?Only those born before 1998 could vote on Brexit, so there is no conceivable way of knowing which way today’s 18- to 30-year-olds would have felt about it. Oh, except there is: 70% of 18- to 24-year-olds think leaving the EU was a bad idea. Of the 25- to 49-year-olds, 66% also think we were wrong to leave. If you can bear to drag your mind back to the immediate...
Usually, when you go to see one of the big hardware powerhouses, the presentations are primarily focused around… well, you know - hardware. That’s been shifting over the years, however, as specialized software becomes an increasingly vital part of the computer hardware battleground.Nvidia has led much of this charge. When you buy an RTX-series GPU, you’re not just buying it for the raw rasterization power - that is to say, how many pixels and frames it can push with the maximum visual bells and...
'Florida!!!' on Taylor Swift's new album 'The Tortured Poets Department'
Rules governing political campaigning on terrestrial television don’t apply to streaming or online – and parties are starting to play dirtyOne of my favourite jokes in The Simpsons concerns the unhinged nature of US political advertising. “Mayor Quimby supports revolving-door prisons,” a growly voice narrates over footage of exactly what you imagine. “Mayor Quimby even released Sideshow Bob, a man twice convicted of attempted murder.” And then, a final disclosure at a noticeably faster pace:...
Conventional political wisdom suggests the first criminal trial of Donald Trump, which got underway in Manhattan last week, will have a minimal effect on the 2024 election. Many political observers see the allegations — covering up hush money payments ahead of the 2016 election — as relatively trifling, and certainly not comparable to the other three indictments Trump faces in Florida, Georgia and Washington, D.C. Even a guilty verdict in the trial would “be unlikely to have a big influence come...
Utah Gov. Spencer Cox opened his TED talk, which he delivered from Canada on Wednesday, with a quote from former President Ronald Reagan: “Freedom is a fragile thing, and it’s never more than one generation away from extinction.” Cox said he, like many others, has used that quote many times — but he confessed he didn’t actually believe it. That is, until the “first cracks in my confidence came” when he was Utah’s lieutenant governor, and that was when he showed up to what was supposed to...
