Artificial Intelligence has been a futuristic term only ever used in movies and science fiction novels, yet the future is not as far away as one would think. With the increase in AI models that generate art, complex business models, and AI learning, the future of AI is here now. In November 2022, OpenAI released a beta of its ChatGPT learning model, which uses a variant of the transformer architecture to generate human-like text, and has since taken the world by storm. The model is trained on a large dataset of text data and has the ability to understand and generate text in a wide variety of contexts. In layman's terms, it's an AI-driven chatbot that can reply to your questions in a very convincing and human way. So naturally,…

THE LAST OF US The Last of Us Throughout the decades, video game to TV/ Movie adaptations has been hit and miss, with a massive emphasis on miss, so when it was announced that HBO would be releasing a series based on the incredibly popular and much loved 2013 PlayStation exclusive The Last of Us, many people feared the worst. Industry experts in both TV and gaming questioned the logic of taking the beloved franchise to the TV screens and many feared that it would tarnish the legacy of the game itself. Fortunately for everyone, the show itself is amazing and not only captures the mood of the game itself, but it's also actually a faithful recreation of the wonderful story that made The Last of Us one of the…

Hollywood actress Brinda Dixit (see in recent Hallmark movies and in video games such as Grand Theft Auto Online) has had many admirers over the years before finding her love match while on the set of an Amazon telvision pilot to her now-husband Adit Dileep. But How did Adit win over Brinda's heart? Well, in and exclusive interview with FHM she reveals the secrets to how to get a leading lady such as herself. Before we get into some fun questions, tell us Brinda, why did you originally decide to get into the entertainment business? I always had a passion for acting from a young age - I had my parents running me around the Bay Area doing every children's theatre and community theatre production I could get my hands…

“It's absolutely f***ing wild… you train all year for it… you need to totally dedicate yourself to it; and that's if you just want to finish. During the Dakar, you get up in the middle of the night, ride out for several hours in the freezing cold and dark - on and off public roads - and that only gets you to the start of the stage. Then you go hell for leather against the clock; across sand, mud, rocks, and desert with only the roadbook (map) and compass as company. “Then at the end of the timed stage - that's the part of the stage you are scored on - you've still got somewhere between two- and four-hours worth of riding to do before you get back to your…

@ianjkirke American writer and Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck concluded,“People don't take trips… trips take people.”His encapsulation – succinct and sweet – accurately reflects my own personal adventures, although I am the first to acknowledge that I am privileged to have the means and opportunity to explore our amazing planet as frequently as I do. If you are open to the notion of discovery it often creates a series of unexpected connections that have the vibrancy to alter the very core of identity. Where I see myself in the world, and how I believe it works, has gone through several significant changes in recent years and I hold most dear the paradox of Albert Einstein's celebrated conundrum:“The more I learn, the more I realize how much I don't know.”My most…

Super Mario Bros One of the first attempts to bring a popular gaming franchise to the screen was the dismal 1993 Super Mario Bros movie. The game itself is an ultra-colorful platformer seeing Mario, an Italian plumber run through colorful worlds on his way to save a princess. The movie decided to ignore all of the source material and rather create a dystopian future ruled by lizards and casting Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo as Mario and Luigi. The problem with the casting was neither of them was Italian, they didn't look like brothers and zero attempts were made to make them even closely resemble the iconic plumber brothers. It is still baffling to this day how they could get it so wrong, from the story, the tone, and the…

It's got a nice ring to it; Corvette E-Ray. Like some sort of new Avatar species that makes all regular ‘Rays seem archaic. That's not too far from the truth either, because the latest specimen from Corvette is revolutionary. That's quite the accolade because the Corvette C8 already took a gigantic step when engineers moved the engine from the nose, to just behind the rear seats. This gave the ‘Vette a whole new dynamic edge, akin to German performance cars. First, though, this is not an electric corvette, instead, it's a hybrid system. That should lessen the shock for die-hard Corvette owners and fans. The fat and square-tipped exhaust pipes help anchor the rear styling in piston-club territory. No downsizing here either, just more complexity on top of the axe-wielding…

It's a bright Monday morning at Long Beach in Kommetjie, a small coastal village located in Cape Town on the southern tip of South Africa. The water is bustling with a crowd of surfers jockeying for the playful waves breaking over ash-white sand. In stark contrast, directly across the bay, lie the towering mountain peaks that overlook Dungeons, one of the most fearsome big wave spots on the planet. On large swells, you can see the spray of gigantic waves smashing up against these brooding cliffs from miles away. “Dungeons is probably the scariest big wave spot in the world,” says Matt Bromley, pointing across the bay. “You never know what it's going to do, it's so unpredictable. You're halfway out in the middle of the ocean and the area…

The hourglass on Audi's R8 has finally trickled dry after nearly two decades and myriad configurations. Its future looks set to be in some form of hybrid or electric powertrain, influenced by models like the Audi e-tron GT. That's not a bad thing, but it does mean the V10 could be axed from Audi's family tree indefinitely but live on by proxy over at Lamborghini. To honor this changing of the guard, Audi has launched the magnum opus of the range – the Audi R8 GT. That name might evoke some memories; in 2012 Audi debuted the first R8 GT and as expected it was a faster, lighter, and meaner version of the best everyday supercar this side of a Porsche 911. The diet consisted of a more sparse interior…
