New Video-Generating AI Trained 100 Percent on Public Domain Films

futurism.com Unknown 2026-01-20 08:00:38

Few tech products have been as broadly contentious as video-generating artificial intelligence. These complex algorithms, which cleave millions of datapoints together into seconds-long gobs of video, are notoriously trained on proprietary material, leading to widespread ethical and legal concerns. (That's before we even mention how much energy it takes to synthesize an AI video.) Tech billionaires tend to argue that this is simply the way things need to be — if you want AI, we need to feed it

After US health secretary and hardline anti-vaccine activist Robert F. Kennedy Jr. fired all 17 highly respected vaccine experts from the federal Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP) last month, he vetted their replacements not by medical and scientific expertise, but by their political leanings, according to a lawsuit filed by medical organizations Monday.

Alan Tudyk Says Even Scenes Cut From ‘Andor’ Season 2 Made the Show Better

gizmodo.com Cheryl Eddy 2026-01-31 17:10:54

Fans of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story had long anticipated K-2SO‘s arrival on Andor. Considering the hulking droid voiced by Alan Tudyk plays a huge part in the movie, the Disney+ show was duty-bound to explain how he first crosses paths with Cassian Andor (Diego Luna). However, as it turned out, K-2SO’s role in the series wasn’t as expansive as some might’ve predicted. There’s a practical reason for that; as Andor creator Tony Gilroy explained back in April, bringing in such a physically conspi

Big Tech’s Mixed Response to U.S. Treasury Sanctions

RFK Jr.’s plan to put ‘AI’ in everything is a disaster

In a 92-minute interview with Tucker Carlson on Monday, RFK Jr. drilled down on his vision for the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Artificial intelligence — arguably, a uselessly vague umbrella term — came up multiple times. (As did conspiracy theories and disinformation on vaccines and autism, the medical establishment, and covid-19 deaths.) As the head of HHS, Kennedy said his federal department is undergoing an “AI revolution.” He implored viewers to “stop trusting the expe

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. appeared on the latest episode of Tucker Carlson’s podcast on Monday and it’s filled with the ramblings of a man completely detached from reality. Kennedy falsely suggested vaccines cause autism, more or less endorsed the idea that Anthony Fauci should go to prison, and says that AI will allow the FDA to approve new drugs very quickly. It’s quite a mess. These absolutely unhinged ideas wouldn’t be such a problem if this were any other fringe lunatic appearing on the podcas

One of the best, and worst, things about Star Wars in recent years is just how connected everything has been. It meant characters who may have at first seemed tangential, like Cassian Andor in Rogue One, could be greatly expanded in something like Andor. It also meant audiences who had never watched an animated show like Clone Wars or Rebels might be left confused with the stories in something like Ahsoka.
