OpenAI's search for profit is a risk
Life, James Hein, Published on 26/02/2025
» Is Sam Altman potentially the most dangerous person on the planet? An interesting question. Sam Altman is the CEO of OpenAI, the company that made the AI that everyone knows as ChatGPT. The original aim of OpenAI back in the day, when Elon Musk was involved, was a fully open-source product that would be scrutinised and controlled by the wider population. In contrast, the focus of Altman appears to be money. OpenAI is currently looking for an injection of funds to make it a fully commercial enterprise. When that is the focus, safety is a secondary consideration and you can end up with Skynet. The current estimate for GAI or AGI (artificial general intelligence) is as soon as next year, but perhaps two to three. Readers will know my opinion on these estimates. So OpenAI may just as well now be called ClosedAI because it's all about the potential income and is really one of the potentially dangerous AI platforms available today.

» Last year, the world embraced Barbie and Poor Things, two outstanding films that tapped into the state of female consciousness in the 21st century. At the 77th Cannes Film Festival, which ends tomorrow, women-driven stories of all stripes are pushed further up (or down) the emotional spectrum. A noticeable number of titles premiering at the influential festival feature female protagonists in varying states of joy and distress -- and to varying results. Powerful acting by female talent also injects life and spirit into those stories, hailing from all corners of the Earth.
Epic soundtracks come to life
Life, James Keller, Published on 16/04/2024
» The Royal Bangkok Symphony Orchestra's increasing reputation for hitting the winning formula to draw in audiences was further boosted recently at the Thailand Cultural Centre where, for two consecutive nights, they performed to a completely packed house. Supported by the Tourism Authority of Thailand and B.Grimm, tickets for "Hollywood Soundtracks By Hans Zimmer" had sold out weeks in advance and a second show was added due to demand. The massive concert hall is not easy to fill on any occasion, so the RBSO should feel proud to have achieved this two nights running.
