gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-11-27 21:50:59

James Gunn’s Superman was pushed out of the top five at the box office this past weekend, marking the beginning of the end of its box office run. It’s been a good one, with over $330 million in the U.S. so far and another $250 million worldwide. It’s the highest-grossing Superman film ever, domestically not adjusted for inflation, and now the journey takes its next step. Gunn took to social media Tuesday to announce his DC Universe film will be available on digital August 15. That’s this week.

In May 2025, during the same week Neon announced their acquisition, our databases went down four times. For hours. Database spin-ups, their entire value proposition, were completely disabled.

Anduril opens solid rocket motor factory amidst ongoing chemical chokepoint

Anduril has officially brought its high-volume solid rocket motor (SRM) factory online in Mississippi as it races to fulfill America’s demand for space and defense missions and challenge a decades-long duopoly between two major defense contractors. The Mississippi factory will be able to produce 6,000 tactical motors a year by the end of 2026, enough volume to position Anduril as the United States’ “third” SRM supplier.

I’m annoyed, not for the first time, by something Sam Altman has said. But this time it’s because I’m annoyed at how much I agree with what he’s saying — even though I think his statement is kind of bullshit. In a recent interview, journalist Cleo Abram asked Altman how people will be able to tell what’s real and what’s not in an age of convincing AI-generated content. Specifically, she references the bunnies. You know the ones I mean: caught in some Ring-camera-ish footage of a backyard, disco

Sam Altman now says AGI, or human-level AI, is 'not a super useful term’ — and he's not alone

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said artificial general intelligence, or "AGI," is losing its relevance as a term as rapid advances in the space make it harder to define the concept. AGI refers to the concept of a form of artificial intelligence that can perform any intellectual task that a human can.
