I can see Zarek being a cylon.

I thought the ending was to the mid finale great. Not really expecting them to reach earth so fast.

Question I like to see solved.

@final cylon

@importance of starbuck (lead them to doom and gloom)

@importance of the hybrids.

@Who is the hybrid that was saying starbuck will lead the human race to death (in razor movie) (i thought it looked a bit like the doctor)

@the res hub was destroyed but was that the only one? I know one before was destroyed.

@what happens to all the cylons on the main planets? Did they populate or just stay around to wipe the human race and then follow again?

one of the first hybrids, probably the first, who escaped during the first cylon war and proceeded in separate ways from the other cylons

Before, they destroyed a Resurrection Ship. I guess the Hub was the central... well, hub of all the ships.

Given that knowledge, I assume they would have more than one Resurrection Ship, right? Did they all just stop working when the Hub was destroyed? You think the Cylons would be smarter than that.

...Then again, to quote the opening: "They have a plan." That could very well be part of it: becoming more human.

We never really did see what their "plan" was, did we? I mean they had a plan to wipe out humanity, they executed that half way through the pilot. After that, they just sort of...chased them around a bit.

Nooo, they weren't just chasing them around. Cylons decided Earth will be their new home. :)

That was the plan, to chase the humans around the universe because it beats sitting in one place waiting for things to happen when you are a robot who lives for thousands of years. That plan seemed to change now to include going to earth with the humans and copulating with the humans. :)

I wouldn't mind a couple Sharons in my bed. ;)

I wonder if I should change my name to SakNeptune and re-engineer your sig. :)

Gaeta is in the fleet, so that would rule him out.

We still don't know if that's true; again, D'Anna could've just said that to confuse Roslin. Or to remove 'focus' from the fifth.

Or, like I suggested earlier... Maybe D'Anna just didn't recognize the fifth. I mean, she can't know EVERY single face in the fleet, right? It could very well be someone in the fleet that she just hasn't met.

You're making some hefty assumptions based on irrational story telling. I don't think Moore is a great story teller, but I don't think he's that bad either. It's way too easy to just fall on the conclusion that D'Anna simply lied for no logical reason. Besides, there were multiple copies of every Cylon, and given that they're not human, knowing every single face really shouldn't prove to be that difficult to conceive, especially for those who are in the fleet (since there are more non-military people than military). Gaeta also assisted Baltar when he was president, so Gaeta would be more known than Anders, who was known.

2nd part of season to be extended? Series Finale to be 3 hours long?

SCI FI Channel is unable to confirm a report in the Chicago Tribune that the final part of Battlestar Galactica's last season will expand or that the finale of the series is expected to be three hours long.

The channel will only say that the finale, written by series creator Ronald D. Moore, extends beyond the time allotted for the episode.

The channel is currently exploring how to shoot the extra footage as Moore has envisioned and written it. No premiere date has been announced yet for the start of the second half of the fourth and final season.

All along I've suspected Balthar as the final Cylon, but can't recall if he was ever directly exposed the virus in Measure of Salvation (season 3). If so, and he obviously survived, then he can't be a Cylon since the virus is lethal to them. Helo and Apollo would be eliminated from the running for final Cylon since they were part of the boarding party that discovered the virus-laden probe on the infected Basestar.

They found a probe left by one of the original settlers of earth, it was in a nebula they found (I think it was the same one that had an "eye). The cylons that got infected all died, sharon survived because of her baby producing an antibody or something.

It was actually an old disease that humans had developed an immunity to decades ago.

    • OpenAI and Broadcom unveil Jalapeño, a new AI chip built for LLM inference

      By pradeepviswav · Posted

      OpenAI and Broadcom unveil Jalapeño, a new AI chip built for LLM inference by Pradeep Viswanathan Image by OpenAI Thanks to the exponential growth of ChatGPT and other LLM-based applications, NVIDIA has grown from a $200 billion company into the first public company to reach a $5 trillion market cap. Even though hyperscalers such as Google and Amazon have their own mature AI accelerators, NVIDIA still dominates the AI infrastructure market with multiple generations of GPUs. Microsoft, OpenAI, and Meta remain among NVIDIA’s largest customers, while Google and Amazon continue to be significant NVIDIA customers as they serve AI workloads for customers on their cloud platforms. Today, OpenAI and Broadcom announced Jalapeño, OpenAI’s first custom “Intelligence Processor” designed specifically for large language model inference. The new chip is the first product from a multi-generation compute platform being developed by OpenAI. OpenAI highlighted that Jalapeño was built from the ground up for current and future LLM workloads, rather than being a general-purpose accelerator adapted for AI. Despite heavy competition from Gemini, Claude, Copilot, and others, ChatGPT remains the most used AI platform in the world. OpenAI mentioned that it leveraged its knowledge of how its models and products run at scale, including ChatGPT, Codex, the API, and future agentic AI systems, to design this new chipset. Its chip architecture reduces data movement while balancing compute, memory, and networking resources. Jalapeño will be deployed in production systems starting in late 2026; however, engineering samples are already running machine learning workloads in OpenAI’s labs at production target frequency and power. According to its internal testing, OpenAI claims this chip can deliver “substantially better” performance per watt, and a detailed technical report is expected in the coming months. While OpenAI designed the chip, Broadcom handled silicon implementation and networking technologies, including Tomahawk networking silicon, and Celestica is assisting with board, rack, and system-level integration. OpenAI pointed out that Jalapeño went from initial design to manufacturing tape-out in just nine months, which it claims is the fastest ASIC development cycle achieved for a high-performance advanced semiconductor. The company attributed the speed of development to its own LLMs, which were used during the chip design and optimization process. Broadcom CEO Hock Tan stated that the company's plan is to deploy the Jalapeño platform at a gigawatt scale with Microsoft and other partners starting in 2026. With Jalapeño, OpenAI joins Google, Microsoft, and Amazon to become a full-stack AI player. The company already develops models and products, and is now moving deeper into infrastructure, including chips, kernels, networking, scheduling, and deployment systems.

      I'm aware. That information should have been included in the article, making it more complete and information.

      Regarding the AI photo, I LOVE AI in that regard, you ask it what you want and it gives you a lovey photo in under a minute, that would taken me an hour to make in photoshop and it wouldn't have looked nearly as good. 2 nights ago I spent a couple hours collaborating with AI.  I did not say write me an article. I would write one or 2  paragraphs, then I would ask it to clean it up so it read better but still keeps the information I was trying to convey.  Rinse repeat.
