Humphrey Bogarts ikoniska replik utsedd till tidernas bästa
När det kommer till oförglömliga filmcitat så har vi alla våra favoriter, och en ny sammanställning från Collider försöker sig nu på att ranka de bästa. Eller ja, de bästa slutreplikerna för att vara specifik, och högst upp på listan hittar vi en riktig kultklassiker.
Förstaplatsen går till Casablanca, det romantiska krigsdramat från 1942 med Humphrey Bogart och Ingrid Bergman i huvudrollerna. Filmens avslutande ord, uttalade av Rick Blaine till polischefen Louis Renault, lyder: "Louis, I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship." En replik som länge betraktats som en av filmhistoriens mest ikoniska, och som absolut förtjänar sin plats i rampljuset.
På andraplatsen återfinns klassikern Some Like It Hot (I hetaste laget), vars avslutande "Well, nobody's perfect!" ofta lyfts fram som en av de roligaste slutreplikerna genom tiderna.
Casablanca, regisserad av Michael Curtiz, räknas fortfarande som en av de mest inflytelserika filmerna i Hollywoods historia. Berättelsen om nattklubbsägaren Rick Blaine, som tvingas välja mellan kärleken och det större goda under andra världskriget, har gjort filmen till en tidlös favorit bland både kritiker och biobesökare.

I’m a 14-year-old trans athlete. No one should face the vicious attacks I have faced | Lina Haaga
People understand gender differently, and I was taught to respect all ideas. But the vitriol I recently experienced was not a healthy debate betsport.cv
For as long as I can remember, I have known I am a girl. That certainty is as instinctive as knowing I am right-handed. It is difficult to explain to someone who has never been transgender or loved someone who is, but I have never lived this way to gain an advantage or take something from someone else. I live this way to honor what I know is true.
I transitioned at four years old. By sixth grade, my identity was public. I grew used to the double takes, the questions, the quiet skepticism. Most of it did not bother me. Curiosity, even when clumsy, is human. People understand gender differently, and I was taught to respect all ideas, just as I hope others respect mine.

Paramount Games-chef Shawn Kittelsen er fuldt ud klar over, at der venter store udfordringar forude for AAA-spiludvikling, men han ønsker ikke at vige uden om at skabe store blockbuster-titler som Marvel 1943: Rise of Hydra og Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin.
I en samtale med The Game Business forklarer Kittelsen, at selvom han ønsker store AAA-oplevelser, håber han at undgå fælden med at kaste hundredvis af millioner af dollars efter dem. "So, what we do has to punch through the noise, but it doesn't always have to punch through the noise at great expense. Sometimes it can punch through with great innovation," udtaler han.
"We want to take appropriately sized bets for where the market is at today, and that means everything from exploring new ways of working with co-developers and support teams, to having a really strict governance process where we are not trying to start with a team of 300 people on day one, but we are starting with a small team that's working on core vision, core mechanics, story and art and concept, and then gradually as we are validating each of those pieces of the game, building up to the point where we feel confident to scale production and go forward."
Kittelsen indrømmer, at det er svært at føre ud i praksis. Hans metoder lyder som noget, der potentielt kan føre til en del kontraktarbejde, da folk først hentes ind til specifikke roller, når spillet er helt klar til dem - eller måske vil det kræve, at en del folk internt hos Paramount Games løbende skal rykkes rundt mellem forskellige projekter. Hvad der dog i hvert fald ikke bliver brug for lige nu, er AI.
"It'd be really easy to win points with investors by saying, 'Yeah, we're going to just use AI to make everything faster, cheaper, better.' But those tools have not reached the point of maturity yet where we can say there are truly meaningful savings to be found," lyder det fra Kittelsen. Han uddyber, at selvom der er visse ting, AI kan hjælpe med at fremskynde, så er selve indholdsudviklingen ikke noget, der bliver mærkbart hurtigere. "We want human hands to be on our products," slår Kittelsen fast og tilføjer, at det ville være hyklerisk at påstå, at Paramounts spil er skabt af fans, hvis man i næste nu må indrømme, at det reelt er en maskine, der har lavet dem.
Real Madrid bekrefter offisielt Bernardo Silva få timer før Portugals VM-debut
Real Madrids tredje offisielle signering denne sommeren, etter trener José Mourinho og den spanske forsvarsspilleren Marc Cucurella, er nå bekreftet. «Real Madrid C. F. og Bernardo Silva har kommet til enighet om at han skal bli Real Madrid-spiller de neste to sesongene, frem til 30. juni 2028», heter det i den offisielle klubberklæringen som ble offentliggjort onsdag morgen.
Vi har visst om Silvas signering i nesten en uke, etter at det ble rapportert at Mourinho hadde bedt om spilleren, som var fri agent etter å ha tilbrakt ni år i Manchester City. Real Madrid grep inn og «stjal» den 32 år gamle midtbanespilleren, som tilsynelatende var på vei til Atlético de Madrid, etter en tidligere tilnærming til FC Barcelona. Nøyaktig samme strategi som de brukte med Marc Cucurella.
Faktisk bekreftet Real Madrid signeringen av Cucurella på mandag, timer før Spanias debut i VM. Real Madrid har nå bekreftet Silva timer før Portugals debut i VM, mot DR Kongo kl. 19:00 CEST, 18:00 BST. Tilfeldighet?
Real Madrid skal angivelig kunngjøre to nye spillere i løpet av de kommende dagene, Ibrahima Konaté (som spiller for det franske landslaget) og Denzel Dumfries (som spiller for det nederlandske landslaget), og begge har allerede debutert i FIFA-turneringen før de blir lagkamerater i Real Madrids forsvar.
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says we need to 'deal with social norms' surrounding AI but apparently that means 'just go engage it'
When the Nvidia CEO isn't busy basking in the adoration of fans at Computex Taiwan, it seems he might spend his time considering how to shift social norms. In what direction, you ask? Why, using AI more, of course.
That's what he told the Associated Press when the interviewer asked whether AI itself concerns people or "the absence of social structures to adapt to something happening so fast."
Jensen responded that "it's a combination of all that" but also emphasised that new social norms are needed: "You have to deal with regulation, technology, you have to deal with social norms."
He gives the example of automobiles and initial concerns over the harm they could do to people, especially children. But we changed social norms so that now kids are warned not to play in the street, there are laws surrounding speed, and so on.
However, when asked what social norm should be changed for AI, the answer isn't particularly satisfying: "The first thing is that I would advocate that everybody use AI. Just go engage it."
I'm not entirely sure that this response would traverse the analogy bridge over to automobiles very well. I can't imagine 'just use a car' would have been very convincing, back in the day. And I'm not sure how keen Huang would be on actually analogous shifts in norms and regulations, such as one akin to speed limits but for AI.
Huang says that, unlike pretty much any other technology, AI is free and easy to use, which is true enough on the surface. However, those 'free' tiers of AI aren't actually free. AI uses and inflates the price of technology that already exists. It's also subsidised by higher paid tiers, funny money inflating a ballooned market, and of course (and apologies for getting a little technical here) a metric s***ton of energy.
In other words, 'free' my arse.
I also can't help but wonder whether there's an element of worry in Huang imploring people to actually use AI. After all, if people don't actually use the technology, eventually that lack of end-user demand will catch up with AI companies, and in turn with the company that gives them their AI hardware: Nvidia.
As it stands, Nvidia is extremely profitable, but the companies that buy from Nvidia aren't. We'll just have to see how long it can last—markets are funny things.
