"Heretic," the newest horror movie from indie studio A24, doesn't use any generative AI. AdvertisementA24's new horror movie "Heretic" is a terrifying rumination on faith and belief. But the duo still chose to include a disclaimer in their film's end credits stating that no generative AI was used to make their movie. They're specifically talking about generative AI, in which the technology creates new images, videos, or text content. "'Heretic' is very much a personal movie," Beck said.

Sung Kook (Bill) Hwang, the founder and head of the private investment firm Archegos, arrives at the Manhattan Federal Courthouse in New York City, U.S., July 9, 2024. The jury, which began deliberations on Tuesday, found Hwang guilty on 10 of 11 criminal counts and Patrick Halligan, his Archegos deputy and co-defendant, guilty on all three counts he faced. Hwang and Halligan sat flanked by their lawyers as the verdict was read by a soft-spoken foreperson. Hwang, 60, had pleaded not guilty to one count of racketeering conspiracy, three counts of fraud and seven counts of market manipulation. At its peak, prosecutors said Archegos had $36 billion in assets and $160 billion of exposure to equities.

☆ Bill Hwang, Archegos demand end to SEC lawsuit over $36 bln firm's collapse

In court filings, Hwang and Archegos said the SEC failed to show how the New York-based firm traded deceptively or how its swaps trades, which they called "lawful," affected prices. "The SEC declares unlawful a number of practices that have long been accepted as entirely legitimate and commonplace in the market," Hwang said. Archegos imploded when it failed to meet margin calls after being caught short on trades through so-called total return swaps. Hwang and former Archegos Chief Financial Officer Patrick Halligan have pleaded not guilty to Department of Justice fraud and racketeering conspiracy charges over the collapse. The case is SEC v Hwang et al, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No.
