Gareth Edwards Sees ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ as a Metaphor for the Film Industry

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-09-14 02:30:54

Gareth Edwards knows a thing or two about sci-fi films. And whether he’s creating his own unique worlds, like Monsters or The Creator, or working in someone else’s, like Godzilla or Rogue One, the director thinks one thing links the entire genre together. “[Sci-fi] films are never really about spaceships, robots or dinosaurs,” he told io9. “They feel pointless if they are. They [only] have meaning when the whole thing is kind of an analogy for something else.” So, what is Edwards’ latest film,

Muvera: Making multi-vector retrieval as fast as single-vector search

Neural embedding models have become a cornerstone of modern information retrieval (IR).

Embedding models transform each datapoint into a single-vector “embedding”, such that semantically similar datapoints are transformed into mathematically similar vectors. The embeddings are
