Batman2022, B minus

 #Batman2022 is not a trendy superhero movie, it's harsh, cruel and realistic for grown-ups, not for the family. Near 3 hours long, definitely not for the kids, and not bladder-friendly.

It would be grateful if you exit the theater with sunlight welcoming you, in order to get rid of all the non-stop rain (& the flood ) & gloomy mood that you were almost drowned in it.

Could it be a market concern that the 1st one who has been saved by the Batman is an Asian.

#RobertPattinson is no doubt a charmer, especially his chin and chest. His facial skin condition is devastating, thanks to the workout training, his topless performace is attractive. But why does he has to be half-naked while searching for the evidence from all the clues in the form of physical pictures and with white sprays on the ground? 

He perfoms better in Batman suit,  and when in Bruce Wayne, there's no traits of suave and posh that represent the wealth from his father's legacy. 

And for the Batman appearance, this is not a high-tech gadgets/weapons and extravagant supercars Batman franchise. It's nostalgic when the vigilante drives old-fashioned cars. Funny how no big car maker sponsors? Maybe the DA's RV is the only visibile brand. Speaking of tech, the funny stuff is that when the invincible escaped from the police tower and dive into the streets, his costume transformed into a flying squirrel, WTF is that? Why can't the cape turned into something useful as wings or what. And the flying squirrel suit can't even land him well, it has to be a small parachute that almost trapped him between the overpass and the vehicle, how embarrassing. And the chest suit gimmick is not even a boomerang, it's only a fancy logo knife. 

#ZoëKravitz is the show-stopper here, she's not only hot, you may say that she's the only fire that burns and glows in this humid film. She's also nimble, agile and really good at fighting scenes. She almost stole the glitter of the vengence guy. 

The romance setting is indeed the reflection of the modern heterosexual relationship: girls are way more proactive than boys. The Cat girl kisses the Bat boy a couple times, with or without his awareness. And the otherway around, none.

#AndySerkis has his own version of Alfred, if you've seen some roles he's been played in such as Hobbits nad Black Panther, the credits are really on him, apart from his supporting character.

New to me, maybe the new story. 

(1) Thomas Wayne was a authentic and dutiful doctor who once saved a villain's life under the professional oath and that put him into a dilemma.

(2) Riddler is not only good at making creepy puzzles, writing physical cards, organizing evil plots and a horrible agitator, he's also an excellent sniper. What a talented orphan went into a strayed way.

In terms of superhero universe build-up. Marvel takes a unified and abundant way, while #DC seems like not having a clue at all, maybe it's on WB.  Do DC&WB want to play a diversified strategy or what? If this one is meant to be a sequal to the #Joker2019, in the artistic way, not even closer. Well, in the ending scene that the nextdoor wicked inmate of Riddler is unrecognizable, and not possilbe to be the #JusticeLeague villain. So, I'm totally confused, and really hope that DC&WB in union will be a honorable competitor to Marvel Studios.

This film deals with some serious issues as Batman series always have. On top of the systematic corruption, this time it tries to deal with lies within lies, vengence backfire and orphan definition. Riddler and his followers are embarrassingly the reflection of Bruce Wayne's vengence, as on the premise of being an orphan,  wealthy or not seems like to be the root of being benign or malignant to the city. 

After all, Gothan City is the stage and playground of this superhero, and he's confined in this area for good.

OpenAI前員工X爆料&楊立昆臉書〈諷刺文〉

【OpenAI ex-employee & Yann LeCun's sarcasm】 🚀 📣 OpenAI前員工Jacob Hilton在X上的爆料全文 📣 🚀 一年多前,當我離開 OpenAI 時,我簽署了一份 「不貶低協議」(non-disparagement agreement) ,並且未披露協議本身,沒有其他原因,只是為了避免失去我的 「既得股權」(vested equity) 。  該協議明確表示,作為簽署的回報,我被允許保留我的既得股權,並且沒有提供任何其他東西。 我不明白為什麼有人會簽署它,如果他們認為這不會對他們的權益產生影響。 我以良好的條件離開了OpenAI,所以我認為幾乎所有離職員工都遵守了這份協議。 在簽署協議之前,我無意批評OpenAI,但對於放棄這樣做的權利感到失望。 昨天,OpenAI 聯繫我,要求我解除該協議,隨後KelseyTuoc在Vox上刊登調查報告: 由於 AI 的變革潛力,開發先進 AI 的主要實驗室必須為那些希望為公共利益發聲的人提供保護。 其中首先是對不報復的具有約束力的承諾。 即使是現在,OpenAI仍可 阻止員工出售其股權,使其在未知的時間內變得毫無價值。 OpenAI 在一份聲明中表示,「從歷史上看,前員工無論在哪裡工作,都有資格以相同的價格出售;我們預計這一點不會改變。」 我相信OpenAI的這項聲明是出於誠實的意圖。 但考量到 OpenAI先前曾拿能否取得 (既得股權變現) 流動性作為一種恐嚇策略,許多前員工仍不敢發聲。 我邀請OpenAI直接與前員工聯繫,以澄清他們將始終以合法可執行的方式獲得平等的流動性的機會。 在他們這樣做之前,大眾不應指望前僱員會坦誠相待。 本人致OpenAI 的許多善良和才華橫溢的前同事們:我希望您們能夠理解為什麼我覺得有必要公開談論這個議題。 該合約與我們對安全和有益的AI的共同承諾不一致,您值得更好的工作合約條件。 原文連結: https://twitter.com/JacobHHilton/status/1794090550863200728 😏 楊立昆在臉書上的〈諷刺文〉 😏 來ClosedAI工作吧!隨著 AGI 即將到來,您 將擁有 目前 估 值 42 X 百萬的6次方美元(sextillionnollars) 公司 的 股票 。 如果您辭退,...

OpenAI 執行長最愛科幻小說 《徐徐誘惑》中文化版本

OpenAI 執行長奧特曼最喜歡的科幻小說  《徐徐誘惑》(The Gentle Seduction)是 Marc Stiegler 於 1989 年寫下的短篇(收錄於同名短篇小說集),被譽為「友善AI」敘事的先驅之作,兼顧科技概念與文學韻味。Stiegler 以極其溫柔的筆觸,充滿哲思地藏進了對人性、科技與愛最深的信任。描繪人類如何在科技奇點的浪潮中,既不失本真,又擁抱變遷,不靠恐懼驅動,而以愛、記憶與謹慎的勇氣面對。以簡潔而詩意的筆觸描繪人類與超級智能(或宇宙級智慧)之間充滿溫柔誘惑且不可逆的融合過程,女主角對科技從一開始的抗拒卻漸漸隱隱被吸引的矛盾心理,情感張力強令人心顫。 近乎禪意的科技寓言:「人類」如何在不知不覺中,被未來擁抱、轉化——沒有劇烈的掙扎,沒有悲壯的告別,只有持續的好奇、探索,與一次又一次的索求。意識的擴張、感知的昇華、存在形式的徹底解放,全都匯聚成一曲橫跨銀河的交響。近乎神聖的「意識之歌」,文字將科技、意識、音樂與宇宙存在融為一體。最後從宇宙尺度驟然聚焦於一人一念。女主角完成了一場跨越千年的自我延續,讀者則猶如體驗一場跨越星海的朝聖之旅。 The Gentle Seduction原文出處: https://eyeofmidas.com/scifi/Stiegler_GentleSeduction.pdf 以下為AI中文化的短篇小說,不才double check: ─────※─────※─────※─────※ ─────※─────※─────※─────  他與電腦為伍;她則與樹木為伴,還有那些在山巒側翼紮根綻放的花朵。 她很訝異他竟對自己感興趣。他那麼聰明,而她卻如此……平凡。但他確實有趣——總能說出些新鮮又獨特的話;而且他人很好。 她 25 歲。他年紀較長,快滿 33 了;有時,傑克看起來的確非常蒼老。 有一天,他們在山邊灰濛濛的霧氣中漫步。雷尼爾(Rainier)山腳下的這片森林,在霧中泛著光,滿目是濃郁鮮亮的綠意。就在這一天,他向她講述了未來——那個他正在親手打造的未來。 過去每當他談起未來,眼中總會閃過一絲狂熱。但此刻,他的目光卻異常銳利而專注,彷彿這一次,他真的能將未來看得一清二楚。他說話的語氣,就像在描述眼前小徑上垂掛的一片葉子那般清晰自然——葉脈分明,毋庸置疑。 「妳聽過『奇點』(Singulari...
