The federal judge overseeing Anthropic PBC’s proposed $1.5 billion copyright settlement is concerned class lawyers are striking a deal behind the scenes that will be forced “down the throat of authors.” Judge William Alsup at the hearing said the motion to approve the deal was denied without prejudice, but in a minute order after the hearing said approval is postponed pending submission of further clarifying information.

David F. Sandberg Will Direct the 756th ‘Amityville Horror’ Movie

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2025-10-28 19:00:55

First came the very real massacre of the DeFeo family by one of their own, in 1974. Then, in 1977, came the best-selling book chronicling the ghostly terrors experienced by the Lutzes, the next family to occupy the DeFeo’s Long Island Dutch Colonial Revival with those distinctive eye-shaped windows. Then came the 1979 movie based on the book—by which time the haunting claims were being called into question. But who cares if The Amityville Horror is a hoax if it continues to fascinate audiences?

The United Arab Emirates wants to compete with the U.S. and China in AI, and a new open source model may be its strongest contender yet. An Emirati AI lab called the Institute of Foundation Models released K2 Think on Tuesday, a model that researchers say rivals OpenAI’s ChatGPT and China’s DeepSeek in standard benchmark tests. “With just 32 billion parameters, it outperforms flagship reasoning models that are 20x larger,” the lab wrote in a press release on Tuesday.

Decades-Old Waste Barrels Are Creating Toxic Dead Zones off LA’s Coast

gizmodo.com Ellyn Lapointe 2025-10-28 19:15:47

Until 1972, the Pacific waters of Southern California served as a dumping ground for hazardous and industrial wastes. More than 50 years later, corroded metal barrels still litter the seafloor off the coast of Los Angeles, and scientists are only beginning to understand the consequences of casually tossing them into the ocean. Images of the barrels first surfaced in 2020, with some of them encircled by mysterious white halos on the seafloor. Experts initially linked the barrels to DDT—a toxic p

The star of Tuesday's "awe dropping" Apple event was undeniably the iPhone Air, a slim, much-rumored version of its new iPhone 17. It's only 5.6mm thick -- thinner than three stacked credit cards -- if you ignore the huge camera bump. But does anyone actually want a super-thin iPhone? Apple has loaded up the iPhone Air with better battery life and faster processing power via the A19 Pro chip. It's also got a 48-megapixel fusion camera and a 12-megapixel 2x telephoto camera.

Even if you're an Android user, you know very well what a standard iPhone looks like.

Not all horror movies are made equal, and sci-fi horror is easily my favorite sub-genre, with he vastness of space pressing in from every side, creatures engineered by science gone wrong, and derelict spaceships housing unspeakable horrors. The Alien franchise might be the most well-known movies of the genre, but it isn't the only one worth watching. One of my favorites is Pandorum.

A new independent report finds that although NASA's ambitious mission to fly across the surface of Titan is delayed and over budget, the fault is due to the space agency's management rather than the program itself. Released Tuesday by NASA's Office of Inspector General, the report found that the mission's budget has soared from an initial figure of $850 million upon its selection in 2019 to $3.35 billion today.
