Trump’s many controversies make legal claims against ‘The Apprentice’ film hard to prove, entertainment lawyer says

Donald Trump has an abundance of legal battles to worry about, but his most recent fight is one he's starting himself.In a cease-and-desist letter obtained by Business Insider's Jacob Shamsian on Friday, Trump's lawyers railed against "The Apprentice," an independently produced movie that premiered this week at the Cannes Film Festival.His attorneys called the Trump biopic a "libelous farce" in the letter, but an entertainment lawyer who spoke to Business Insider said it's an uphill battle for Trump to prove that's the case — especially if the filmmakers made it clear that the film is not a representation of the…

Elon Musk is reportedly planning an xAI supercomputer to power a better version of Grok

Elon Musk is reportedly planning an xAI supercomputer to power a better version of Grok

Elon Musk told investors this month that his startup xAI is planning to build a supercomputer by the fall of 2025 that would power a future, smarter iteration of its Grok chatbot, The Information reports. This supercomputer, which Musk reportedly referred to as a “gigafactory of compute,” would rely on tens of thousands of NVIDIA H100 GPUs and cost billions of dollars to build. Musk has previously said the third version of Grok will require at least 100,000 of the chips — a fivefold increase over the 20,000 GPUs said to be in use for training Grok 2.0.According to The…

While Meta Stuffs AI Into All Its Products, It’s Apparently Helpless to Stop Perverts on Instagram From Publicly Lusting Over Sexualized AI-Generated Children

While Meta Stuffs AI Into All Its Products, It’s Apparently Helpless to Stop Perverts on Instagram From Publicly Lusting Over Sexualized AI-Generated Children

As Facebook and Instagram owner Meta seeks to jam generative AI into every feasible corner of its products, a disturbing Forbes report reveals that the company is failing to prevent those same products from flooding with AI-generated child sexual imagery.As Forbes reports, image-generating AI tools have given rise to a disturbing new wave of sexualized images of children, which are proliferating throughout social media — the Forbes report focused on TikTok and Instagram — and across the web.The images generally feature young, pre-adolescent girls, many of whom are suggestively dressed; the followers of social media accounts who post and interact with the images…

Llemma: An Open Language Model For Mathematics

Llemma: An Open Language Model For Mathematics

ArXiv | Models | Data | Code | Blog | Sample Explorer Today we release Llemma: 7 billion and 34 billion parameter language models for mathematics. The Llemma models were initialized with Code Llama weights, then trained on the Proof-Pile II, a 55 billion token dataset of mathematical and scientific documents. The resulting models show improved mathematical capabilities, and can be adapted to various tasks through prompting or additional fine-tuning. Llemma models show strong performance on benchmarks that test a model's ability to solve mathematical problems without external tools. For example, here is a Llemma 34B solution to a MATH…

Space loves AI, AI doesn’t love Space

Space loves AI, AI doesn’t love Space

Space-related applications of artificial intelligence and machine learning are often confined to the ground because moving AI onboard satellites, while promising, is significantly more difficult. “Running AI in space is like running a marathon on the moon — impressive if achieved, but limited by the environment,” said Sylvester Kaczmarek, chief technology officer at OrbiSky Systems, a London startup focused on AI edge operations. Advanced processors are power hungry, meaning satellites with onboard AI require large solar panels and extra batteries. Plus, “radiation in space can fry electronics,” Kaczmarek said. Power management is another problem. Many AI devices require very high…
