Celebrating 40 Years of the Weirdest, Nerdiest Week in Movie History

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-12-21 23:00:33

“Don’t cannibalize the audience” is an unwritten mantra in Hollywood. If a movie that is coming out has a similar subject matter or serves a similar viewership as one you are releasing, you try and put some distance between them so as not to ruin your chances of success. If two movies come out that are too similar, it’s likely to split the audience and hurt both of them. That seems like a no-brainer point of view. And yet, 40 years ago this week, three movies were released in a seven-day span th

gizmodo.com Gayoung Lee 2025-12-21 23:05:48

Australia is famous for hosting the weirdest creatures we’ve ever seen.

The insect, named Acrohylla alta, is about 15 inches (40 centimeters) long—about the height of a bowling pin—and weighs around 0.1 pounds (44 grams), slightly lighter than the heaviest golf ball.

However, a clear trend when working with AI generated images is their unique look: overly-blurry backgrounds, waxy skin textures, boring composition, and more. Together, these problems constitute what is now known as the “AI look” . Image generation has come a long way since the early days of generating cats and flowers with GANs. Today's models can generate coherent human faces, limbs, and hands. They understand exact quantities, render complex typography, and make an astronaut ride a horse.

Earlier today, Mark Zuckerberg shared a rambling memo outlining his vision to build AI "superintelligence." In the memo, Zuckerberg hinted that the pursuit of more powerful AI might require the company to be more selective in what it open sources. Citing "safety concerns" he wrote that Meta would need to be "rigorous" about such decisions. The line stood out to many as Zuckerberg — who once said " fuck that " in reference to closed platforms — has made open source central to Meta's AI strategy.
