After the huge risk (and ultimate success) of its Final Fantasy set last month, the venerable card game is leaping into another big risk, although this time devoid of any flashy crossover: its next set, Edge of Eternities, will mark Magic‘s first proper foray into full-on science fiction.

When is an AI system intelligent enough to be called artificial general intelligence (AGI)?

This arbitrary profit-based benchmark for AGI perfectly captures the definitional chaos plaguing the AI industry. In fact, it may be impossible to create a universal definition of AGI, but few people with money on the line will admit it. Over this past year

How The New York Times is (still) getting gamed by the right

theverge.com Elizabeth Lopatto 2025-08-27 02:30:00

Lately, it has been difficult to ignore a tendency at The New York Times to make astonishingly bad news judgments. The paper’s obsession with a view from nowhere is long-standing, but as Republicans increasingly circulate insane conspiracy theories and racist nonsense, the cult of centrism has taken a self-destructive turn. The most recent — and perhaps most egregious — way this has surfaced is a story about New York mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s application to Columbia University in 2009,

Right now, there’s both a Carrie series and a feature take on The Stand in the works, and Edgar Wright’s The Running Man just dropped its first trailer. With the same titles seemingly caught in Hollywood’s revolving door, it can be tempting to forget King is still regularly publishing new stories.
