It appears Suicide Squad: Kill The Justice League will launch with controversial anti-piracy software Denuvo.

Clearly the rom-com genre is not dead as Glen Powell announced his new movie Anyone But You has been quickly racking up more than $100 million.It may seem like high-budget…

WIRED’s request for the documents promised in OpenAI’s IRS filings fell to the counsel for its nonprofit to decide on. Their denial and new policy of withholding those documents extends an existing trend of dwindling openness at a project founded on transparency. OpenAI once published extensive detail about its AI inventions but has more recently guarded the technical details and data behind its most famous tool, ChatGPT. Felix, the company spokesperson, says San Francisco-based OpenAI discloses all the material required…

December has frequently seen the release of massive blockbuster movies, from the Star Wars sequel trilogy to Avatar to Aquaman. This year we didn’t really see any single movie completely take over the box office in December, but Timothée Chalamet's Wonka started off strong, and more importantly it has had solid legs underneath it, keeping near the top of the box office since its release. That has now resulted in Wonka becoming the most successful movie based on the Roald Dahl character, as the new movie has passed Johnny…

Carrie Goldberg has been waiting a while for this moment. A New York-based victim’s rights attorney, Goldberg has spent years taking tech firms to court over a range of alleged abuses of their platforms—from stalking and harassment to revenge porn and other online privacy violations. It’s been a tough gig: For nearly three decades, the law known as Section 230 has shielded online platforms from lawsuits that try to hold them liable for the content that their users post. That’s made it relatively simple—too simple,…

The biggest names in laptops showed up to CES this week with new designs, new chips, and usually some way to sneak in the term “AI.” But most of them also quietly arrived with one of the most important upgrades of all for competitive gamers on the go: better Wi-Fi, with support for Wi-Fi 7. It’s about time, because router companies shoved Wi-Fi 7 routers out the door throughout 2023, and we’ve been waiting on machines that can put the standard’s ludicrous speed promises to the test.Wi-Fi 7 came to gaming laptops first and…

For British movie audiences of a certain generation, there is one image of Tom Wilkinson that will always sum up his hold on our hearts: the image of an paunchy, respectable bloke in a dole queue, wearing an anorak over his collar and tie, with a bunch of other depressed but much younger and scruffier males, shyly, almost unconsciously, practising some swaying erotic dance moves to the accompaniment of Donna Summer’s Hot Stuff.He is the upright, uptight Gerald in the 1997 British comedy The Full Monty, the ex-supervisor…
