Soon, Shell, 59, will be at the helm of Paramount and paired with Ellison, who has already expressed his desire to transition Paramount into a more modern media company. The 10 p.m. hourAt Paramount, Shell will be given an asset mix similar to what he oversaw at NBCUniversal — save the theme parks. Wolf's shows were also significant moneymakers for NBCUniversal, according to a person familiar with the matter. Some media analysts, such as LightShed Partners' Rich Greenfield, have argued Paramount Global should shut down Paramount+ and instead license Paramount content to other streamers with more scale.

I've been interested in computers since I was a child and wanted to pursue a career in computer science since the eighth grade. I did my bachelor's degree in computer science at Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology in India from 2012 to 2016. I sat the exam and got decent marks, so I applied for several master's degrees in computer science in the US in 2017. I got into the computer science master's program at Stony Brook College in New York to start in 2018. All the computer science students worked and lived on the same campus – it felt competitive, but also motivating.

AMD launches AI chip to rival Nvidia's Blackwell
  + stars: | 2024-10-10 | by ( Kif Leswing | ) www.nbcnews.com   time to read: +5 min
AMD launched a new artificial-intelligence chip on Thursday that is taking direct aim at Nvidia’s data center graphics processors, known as GPUs. In the past few years, Nvidia has dominated the majority of the data center GPU market, but AMD is historically in second place. The new AI chip is the successor to the MI300X, which started shipping late last year. Most industry estimates say Nvidia has over 90% of the market for data center AI chips. The new CPUs are particularly good for feeding data into AI workloads, AMD said.

Bret Taylor, board chairman of OpenAI, joined CNBC's Squawk on the Street Thursday to discuss his artificial intelligence startup Sierra. Taylor co-founded Sierra in March of 2023, and it aims to help companies build AI agents that can interface directly with their customers. AI agents vary in their complexity, but they can generally help users answer questions, automate processes and perform specific tasks, according to the company's website. Sierra is already valued at around $4 billion, and Taylor said he is excited to build an "enduring company." Taylor joined OpenAI's board after the company's CEO Sam Altman was briefly ousted last fall.

In 2023, the fund returned 30.7%, significantly outperforming its benchmark and the S & P 500, which was up 26%. Yiu's decision stems from his belief that Microsoft's business model is about to change significantly in light of the rise of generative AI. Microsoft has been leading the charge in generative AI adoption. The crux of the issue lies in the increased costs associated with providing AI services, according to the outperforming fund manager. Nvidia's chips, while readily available, allows the Silicon Valley company to capture much of the profit from generative AI services instead.

CNN —Scooter Braun would like to change the subject. The music exec particularly would like for people to stop talking about his very public and controversial sale of megastar Taylor Swift’s master recordings, saying that “five years later, I think it’s time to move on” from the topic. “I think that it’s important in any kind of conflict that people actually communicate directly with each other. I think doing it out on social media and in front of the whole world is not the place,” Braun said. To the audience’s surprise – made clear by the audible wave of murmurs and gasps – he name-checked Swift.

My homeowner nightmare

The moment I saw I had an email from my solar company, I knew my nightmare was about to take another unsettling turn. But he didn't know any more than I did about how much longer my solar panels would remain useless. Meanwhile, my solar panels have been sitting on my roof for four months, entirely unused, taunting me from above. AdvertisementI also reached out to California's Contractors State License Board, which regulates solar companies, asking what recourse SunPower's customers had.

The Nobel committee just entered the AI chat

When asked by a reporter whether the committee took the AI connection into consideration when judging the nominees, one member on the chemistry committee basically brushed off the question and insisted the decisions were made purely on the science. The Nobel committee letting politics or PR weigh on their decisions? At first glance, it could seem like the Nobel committee has been gulping down Big Tech’s AI Kool-Aid. While gesturing to generative AI, Wong noticed that no one mentioned ChatGPT or Gemini or any other consumer-facing AI tools that companies are peddling. Similarly, in announcing the chemistry prize on Wednesday, committee members talked a lot about amino acid sequences and structural biochemistry.

With less than four weeks until Election Day, Trump is scheduled to hold rallies in staunchly Democratic states he has virtually no chance of winning. President Joe Biden won those states by an average of 20 points in 2020, with his 13-point Colorado win the closest margin. “Choosing high-impact settings makes it so the media can’t look away and refuse to cover the issues and the solutions President Trump is offering,” said a senior Trump campaign adviser of the strategy behind late-election cycle events in Democratic states. He called Trump the “most unorthodox candidate in modern history,” which means the off-script strategy could have some value. “Aurora, Colorado has become a 'war zone' due to the influx of violent Venezuelan prison gang members,” Trump’s campaign said in a statement announcing the event.
