  1. 1. Who should lead on Destiny?

Technically the 3 hr miniseries was not the "Series" premiere and no is was done over 2 days back to back

Fair enough:):)

I'm glad they went back to a gate design which actually rotated. Atlantis looked like some knock-off show. I hope we get to see a decent scene of the General Hammond and that Ha'tak vessel going at each other.

You might have missed this in Atlantis' final episode.... but it was revealed General Hammond died of a heart attack :(

Edit: Oh.... you did mention that it was a vessel. My mistake

Not impressed. Most of the characters seem like generic versions of other characters in media. Chubby smart kid seems like 'Seth' from 'Superbad', and the main scientist guy reminds me of a lame version of Baltar from BS:G. Dunno why they feel the need to stick a rebellious 'bad-boy' black dude into every season, either.

Really want it to improve, but this premier doesn't leave me with much hope. It's all starting to seem pretty tired and retreaded.

I dont remember that being said :(

enjoyed this first episode

It was rather good however i can honestly say i have no idea where they are going from here in ways of the overall story and concept for this one not to mention if they are going to be playing off of must of the old story line other than that the Ancients build the ship

It was in one of the SG-1 movies, Continuum, actually. And I don't think they said what he died from, just that he died. It was a nod to the actor who died IRL.

Why does every show have to do things in flash back form now?

There was this little show, maybe you've heard of it ... very popular ... called Lost.

What does the Asgard have to do with the new show? Maybe they will run into the Furlings somewhere in the universe. :p

Excactly.

They can't run into the Ancients (well, they can, sorta) and as far as we know the Nox are only in the Milky Way. The Asgard and Furlings are the only two we can meet now really (since the Nox are really like, not gonna show up anymore I'm sure) and now it's down to the Furlings!

Those little ewoks from the 200th episode of SG-1 is probably the closest we'll ever get sadly lol

Meanwhile, I fell asleep and missed Universe (ugh) but saw the finale 10 minutes or so, and just saw the first 15 or so minutes. I liked what I saw (especially Daniel Jackson giving the video into to the Stargate lol) but I still need to see the remaining 1+ hours of it. I'll catch it again hopefully or see it on Hulu or whatever tomorrow etc.

To me the Asgard are gone and done. I'd rather they explore new stuff than cling to old stuff.

That chick near the end called the engine an FTL drive. She must be a BSG fan. :D It seems like some people are calling Rush a poor copy of Baltar.

    • >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.
