Maggie Smith in "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince." The following year, Smith played Desdemona in Olivier's "Othello." Smith played a celebrated British actor reckoning with her complex marriage to a closeted gay man played by Michael Caine.

The AI models behind this technology are built using high-quality datasets from millions of different sources. These are the raw materials for model "training," in industry parlance. Nvidia GPUs are the main hardware required for AI model training.

This month, serious AI researchers waded into this debate with 2 papers that seek to address various aspects of the situation.

Rowling's Harry Potter books to see if individual pieces of data influence AI model performance. The other datastore excluded all 7 Harry Potter books. Then they repeated the exercise, excluding the second Harry Potter book, then the third, and so on. Important legal benefitsHelping J.K. Rowling make even more money from her Harry Potter books was not the goal of the SILO study, though.

☆ Warner Bros Discovery unveils revamped 'Max' in push for streaming growth
  + stars: | 2023-04-12 | by ( Dawn Chmielewski | ) www.reuters.com   time to read: +4 min
Warner Bros Discovery eliminated "HBO" from the name of the streaming service, which for some viewers connotes bespoke series but repels others. He repudiated his predecessor's COVID-19 era strategy of releasing new movies simultaneously in theaters and in the home, via HBO Max. Instead, Warner Bros films would enjoy a traditional theatrical release and reap box office proceeds before becoming available on the streaming service. It licensed some of these shows to other streaming services, as Warner Bros Discovery looked for new ways to monetize its film and television libraries. Like other media companies, Warner Bros Discovery has yet to turn a profit on its HBO Max and Discovery+ streaming services, though the company has reduced losses from them.
