Lots of talk of the Green Lantern Corps what with the pics of various GL's, but other Corps will be in the series as episodes arrive (2nd film starts filming this summer) so here's a primer based on the various ring colors, their controlling emotions/forces & oaths. Should give a head start -

? Green Lantern Corps (green ring - willpower)

In brightest day, in blackest night,

No evil shall escape my sight.

Let those who worship evil's might

Beware my power--Green Lantern's light

- Green Lantern Alpha Corps (Internal Affairs)

In days of peace, in nights of war,

Obey the laws forever more.

Misconduct must be answered for,

Swear us the chosen--the Alpha Corps

? Star Sapphire Corps (violet ring - love)

For hearts long lost and full of fright,

For those alone in Blackest Night.

Accept our ring and join our fight,

Love conquers all with violet light

? Sinestro Corps (yellow ring - fear)?

[yellow is also kry to the villain of the movie: Paallax]

[also note that Sinestro is a Green Lantern that goes off the reservation sometime after Hal Jordan joins the Corps]

In blackest day, in brightest night,

Beware your fears made into light

Let those who try to stop what's right,

Burn like my power*... Sinestro's might!

["my power" becomes "his power" when recited by other members of the Sinestro Corps]

? Black Lantern Corps (black ring - death)

The Blackest Night falls from the skies,

The darkness grows as all light dies.

We crave your hearts and your demise,

By my black hand, the dead shall rise

White Lantern Corps (white ring - life)

The Entity bonds with several characters in an ongoing story arc : Brightest Day?

? Red Lantern Corps (red ring - hate)

With blood and rage of crimson red,

Ripped from a corpse so freshly dead,

Together with our hellish hate,

We'll burn you all--that is your fate

? Agent Orange (orange ring - avarice)

AKA?Larfleeze. In the Blackest Night story arc his ring splits, and the 2nd ring selects Lex Luthor as its host.

Oath unconfirmed in canon, but hintrd at "MINE!

? Blue Lantern Corps (blue ring -hope)

In fearful day, in raging night,

With strong hearts full, our souls ignite.

When all seems lost in the War of Light,

Look to the stars, for hope burns bright

? Indigo Tribe (indigo ring - compassion)

Tor lorek san, bor nakka mur,

Natromo faan tornek wot ur.

Ter Lantern ker lo Abin Sur,

Taan lek lek nok--Formorrow Sur

[within the Indigo oath is the name of Abin Sur - Hal Jordan's predecessor. Indigo-1, their leader, describes him as being her "savior"]

MTV caught up with Blake Lively (who stars as Hal Jordan's love interest Carol Ferris in the upcoming Green Lantern) at a recent press event. Lively had some interesting things to say about her possible future, if there are indeed sequels to the Green Lantern.
"There are lots of winks toward the audience, you know, if people like this movie then we will do more and, you know, my character Carol Ferris turns into a villain that challenges and fights Hal Jordan... with some CRAZY costumes. I mean costumes like you guys will have in the cage today."

Directed by Martin Cambell Green Lantern stars Ryan Reynolds as Hal Jordan aka Green Lantern, Blake Lively as Carol Ferris, Peter Sarsgaard as Hector Hammond and Mark Strong as Sinestro is slated for release here in the state on June 17th.

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
