Jeff Goldblum talks to The Huffington Post about returning for Roland Emmerich's Independence Day 2 and why he didn't appear in Jurassic Park III and why his character Ian Malcolm probably won't be back for Jurassic World .

 

 

That's disappointing. I really wanted him to return. He was my favorite in the first two.

Details are sparse, bur Deadline report that Vincent D?Onofrio and Irrfan Khan have signed on to star in the next installment of Universal?s Jurassic Park franchise. We don't know a thing about Khan's role yet, but apparently D?Onofrio will play the baddie. Jurassic World is directed by Colin Trevorrow and also stars Chris Pratt (Guardians of the Galaxy), Bryce Dallas Howard (Spider-Man 3), Ty Simpkins (Iron Man 3), and Nick Robinson (The Kings Of Summer). The movie hits theaters June 12th, 2015.

The Wrap reports that Khan will be playing Patel, the billionaire owner of a new Jurassic Park, while D'Onofrio will play the CFO of the Patel Corporation.  D'Onofrio's character "projects the image of a normal family man to mask a hidden edge."

I know a lot of fans want to see the original characters back. They?re iconic. But I respect those actors too much to shoehorn them into this story for my own sentimental reasons. Jurassic Park isn?t about the bad luck of three people who keep getting thrown into the same situation. The only reason they?d go back to that island is if the screenwriters contrived a reason for them to go. But there is a character from the first film who makes sense in our world. This hasn?t been announced yet, but BD Wong will be returning as Dr. Henry Wu. He had a much larger role in the original novel, he was the engineer of this breakthrough in de-extinction. He spent two decades living in Hammond?s shadow, underappreciated. We think there?s more to his story.

Trevorrow had this to say to IGN about Pratt and Howard?s characters:

He?s a classic hero in a very modern context. He?s the guy who will get you through the jungle alive ? but like Malcolm, Grant and Sattler, he?s an expert in a scientific field that?s connected to our story. The character allows us to explore some new ideas about our relationship with these animals, without losing the humor and sense of adventure. He?s a great contrast for Bryce Dallas Howard?s character, who starts off very corporate, very controlled. Until the running and screaming starts. Then they need each other.

    • >defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool It is not. It is the inhuman artist replacement. The human writing the prompt is the employer/manager requesting the work product of the artist -- a supervisory/descriptive job that doesn't carry with it any rights to the copyright of that work product at all. And since AI is not human itself, it can't gain copyright for anything it is asked to regurgitate or hallucinate, so it can't transfer that copyright to the employer/manager/human who asked for the output. This was all legally reaffirmed last year. So, no, while there are AI tools, AI slopware generation is NOT a "tool" in the legal definition of that word.

    • Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine
    • Calling GTA 6 overhyped crap doesn’t make you edgy, it just makes you sound like someone who hasn’t enjoyed anything since the PS2 era.
    • I’m not arguing whether Rockstar likes money. Obviously, they do, they’re a business. I’m saying this isn’t new. They’ve always launched console first. This is just how Rockstar operates.
