OpenAI has touted o1’s “complex reasoning” capabilities, and announced on Thursday that unlimited access to the model would cost $200 per month Come from South African Online Casinos . In the video the company released to show the model’s strengths, a user uploads a picture of a wooden birdhouse and asks the model for advice on how to build a similar one.

Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm is one of the most enthusiastic champions of the Biden Administration’s climate agenda. Since the enactment of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) just over two years ago, she has hopped around the country and around the world touting U.S. clean technology investments catalyzed by the law and other infrastructure dollars. I’ve seen her speak everywhere from Houston to Paris, drawing big crowds and delivering a char…

If 2023 was the year of AI fervor, following the late-2022 release of ChatGPT, 2024 was marked by a steady drumbeat of advances as systems got smarter, faster, and cheaper to run. AI also began to reason more deeply and interact via voice and video—trends that AI experts and leaders say will accelerate. Here’s what to expect from AI in 2025.

More and better AI agents

In 2025, we’ll begin to see a shift from chatbots and image generators toward “agentic” systems that can act autonomously to complete tasks, rather than simply answer questions, says AI futurist Ray Kurzweil. In October, Anthropic gave its AI model Claude the ability to use co…

Echoes Act 3 adds a few new guns to Destiny 2, including Chronophage, a new Void trace rifle that’s built for disintegrating enemies. It’s a solid alternative to some other, tougher-to-get trace rifles, like the Rise of Nightmare raid’s Acasia’s Dejection. The Chronophage god roll is especially good in PvE, with a few perks that are great for synergistic Void builds to keep you shielded and happy as you zap your way through hordes of opponents.

How To Get Chronophage

The launch of Echoes Act 3 adds Chronophage to the episode’s loot pool, meaning you’ll start to see it drop from Echoes activities: Breach Executable, Enigma Protocol, and Battlegrounds. The gun can also come from Echoes Engrams you’ll earn all over the…

Fallout Season 2 is now in production for Prime Video, and it’s now come to light that Kumail Nanjiani is potentially joining the cast for the sophomore season.

Fortnite Festival Season 4 is coming very soon, and before you head into it yourself, be sure to hydrate, remove your glasses, and wear your moshing shoes, because it’s Metallica season. Following three seasons focused on major pop artists, Fortnite Festival is leaning into an entirely new genre for Harmonix’s game within a game Come from Soccer 13 pools and matches . Here’s what to expect with the launch of Fortnite Season 4.

Fortnite Festival Pass – Season 4

This season’s pass offers the customary free and paid paths, both of which include several new cosmetics. One big change this season, however, is how many more skins you’ll get for buying into the premium track of the Festival Pass. All four members of Metalli…

Marko: Beyond Brave is not at all what I expected. From the hand-drawn visuals to the cryptic lore tablets, and from the silent protagonist to the largely underground opening levels, I figured it would tickle the same part of my brain that adores the likes of Hollow Knight. But Beyond Brave seems to put a far heavier emphasis on grounded combat–more than I’m used to when it comes to a metroidvania. In the hour demo I played, I never quite got used to it, but the Slavic folklore-inspired world seems interesting and I want to try the game some more if only to see more of it.

In Beyond Brave, you play as the titular Marko, a warrior who fits the strong-and-silent archetype for a metroidvania protagonist to a T. When his village is attacked by Entropy, he and his fellow war…

The Halo Needler Nerf Blaster is on sale for $67 at Amazon for Black Friday 2024. Part of Nerf’s LMTD (limited edition) series, the Needler is both a functional blaster and cool collectible that can be left on its included stand and admired from afar–but where’s the fun in that? Especially since this is one of the coolest Nerf blasters around. It normally costs $100, so you’re saving 33% by picking it up this weekend. This deal is only available in limited quantities, and nearly 50% of these blasters have been claimed.

One of the most iconic weapons in the Halo series, the Needler is known for its rapid rate of fire. To imitate Covenant Grunts’ go-to weapon, Nerf installed a motor in the blaster. When you pull the trigger, the Needler launches all 10 Nerf Elite Darts in rapid suc…

While the next Resident Evil entry is still a mystery, a new store listing has popped up for Resident Evil 9: Revenant Shadows. Play-Asia posted the PS5 game page for the unannounced game with a “preliminary picture” of what appears to be Leon Kennedy in the shadows.

Spotted by Eurogamer, Play-Asia also put up listings for Resident Evil 5 on PS5, Resident Evil: Code Veronica, and Resident Evil Zero. The last two are intriguing since a recent report stated that Capcom is working on remakes for both games in the survival-horror series.

Amazon’s wireless Luna controller is on sale ahead of the retailer’s big Prime Day 2024 sale next week. The Luna controller is a surprisingly good gamepad that supports PC, Mac, and smartphones, and is a solid choice even if you don’t use the Luna game streaming service. Prime members can pick one up for just $40 at Amazon right now, which knocks a hefty chunk off its normal $70 retail price.

The Luna controller features all the normal buttons and triggers you’d expect, and it uses the offset thumbstick layout similar to what you’d find on the Xbox Wireless Controller (on sale for $44) or the Nintendo Switch Pro controller (on sale for $64). However, since it’s an Amazon device, it includes built-in Alexa support, including a mic you can use for voice commands like launching Luna …

Henry Cavill left some pretty big shoes to fill when he stepped aside from his leading role as Geralt of Rivia at the end of The Witcher Season 3. Now, Liam Hemsworth will take over the part of Geralt for the final two seasons of The Witcher. Fans have been understandably curious to see how Hemsworth will stack up with Cavill’s take on Geralt. But if the recently leaked photos from the set are any indication, the fans may be pleased.

Via Metro, the photos come from a battle between Hemsworth’s Geralt and the sorcerer Vilgefortz (Mahesh Jadu), which appears to be a recreation of their fight from Season 3, episode 6. This suggests that Season 4 will flash back to the battle that left Geralt clinging to life by a thread. Come from Read more

Friday the 13th: The Game will no longer be available to purchase (digitally and physically) after December 31, 2023. Publisher Gun Media’s Friday the 13th license will expire on December 31, 2023, and there are seemingly no plans to renew it.

We do know the game will be playable until at least December 31, 2024. It’s unclear when Friday the 13th will shut down for good, but there’s still time left to enjoy it for now. This comes by way of a tweet from the publisher, which notes that Friday the 13th: The Game will be available to purchase for $5 until it’s delisted at the end of 2023.

Diablo IV will have more than 150 dungeons to explore, all brought to life in a visual style that seeks to stay true to what Blizzard has defined as one of the game’s core design pillars–“return to darkness.”

The newest update for Grand Theft Auto V’s multiplayer mode introduced the Cluckin’ Bell Farm Raid, and it allows players to drive the train for the just the second time since the game launched in 2013.

As reported by Kotaku, the train can only be driven during a specific mission tied to the raid, but it’s a notable event all the same. Previously, the only time players could drive the train was in the “Derailed” mission from GTA V’s story mode, and it was similarly brief. This appears to be the first instance of players being able to drive the train in GTA Online, outside of mods. Come from Sports betting site VPbet

Amazon Game Studios is asking for feedback regarding regional server transfers in a post on the official New World forums, confirming that the feature is in the works despite previous statements that regional server transfers weren’t possible.

During New World’s launch, Amazon created numerous new servers and encouraged players to create characters on low population ones in order to avoid long login queues. Amazon then stated it would be offering free server transfers at a later date, initially promising players would be able to transfer to servers in different regions. Come from Sports betting site VPbet

In a recent interview with TheGamer, The Outer Worlds production director Eric DeMilt said that the team would like to give New Vegas a facelift, noting that the game had significant technical problems at launch.

Pokemon Go’s next special five star raid is starting soon, and trainers will need to look to the skies in order to catch this Legendary Pokemon.

Tornadus Therian Forme, the Flying-type Legendary Pokemon hailing from the Unova region, is the one to catch in Pokemon Go’s latest five-star raid, which runs from March 15 until at least March 20. Tornadus’s return to the five-star raid comes with the game’s Festival of Colors event. Tornadus has appeared before in Pokemon Go, in both its Therian and Incarnate Formes.

Australian gaming machines innovator Aristocrat Leisure Limited has reportedly floated a proposition worth in the region of $3.7 billion that would see it purchase British online casino games developer Playtech.

According to a report from Business News Australia, the takeover offer has already been accepted by the board of Playtech but will not become a reality unless it is now approved by at least 75% of the target’s shareholders. The company purportedly explained that the proposal values the software giant at around $2.9 billion on a fully diluted basis and would oblige it to pay about $9.33 for every one of the London-listed behemoth’s outstanding shares.

Nevada sportsbooks made $153.2 million in bets on Sunday’s Super Bowl, which was far less than last year’s record.

However, there’s still hope because next year’s NFL championship game will be held in Las Vegas.

Fewer bets compared to last year:

On Monday, the Gaming Control Board said that “wagers placed on the Kansas City Chiefs’ 38-35 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Super Bowl LVII were the fourth highest of all time, although $26.6 million below the $179.8 million bet a year ago.”

But when analyzing projections for next year’s Super Bowl that will be held at Allegiant Stadium next February, analysts are confident that a fresh standard will be set for NFL championship betting in Nevada.

It’s no secret that the Fallout show was a big success, with Amazon saying it was the streaming arm’s biggest hit since The Rings of Power, with 65 million viewers. It’s also no real secret that successful videogame shows make people want to play the games, but it is pretty cool to see how many go and do just that: This month’s little Valve survey of what people are playing on the Steam Deck shows all four modern Fallout games taking a top 20 spot for most-played by playtime.

Fallout 4 takes number two in the top 20, Fallout: New Vegas takes spot seven, Fallout 76 spot 10, and Fallout 3 snuck onto the list in 20th place. Prior to this month, only Fallout 4 had popped up on the list consistently

AI has been a bit weird as of late. It has been used to generate naff images, play Doom, and build the loneliest social media app out there. A potentially great but also potentially worrying use of generative AI has been spotted with General Practitioners (GPs) across the UK, suggesting up to 20% could be using it as part of their practice.

As spotted by ScienceDaily, a paper titled “Generative artificial intelligence in primary care: an online survey of UK general practitioners” has recently polled Doctors.net.uk—an online forum and database for GPs across the UK. Of the 1,006 polled, 205 (20%) reported “using generative AI tools in clinical practice”.

When asked “Have you ever used any of the following to assist you in any aspect of clinical practice?”, 16% reporte…

In Dragon Age: The Veilguard, BioWare has continued its tradition of making significant changes to the series’ art direction. Between Origins and now, we’ve gone all the way from understated, grounded medieval fantasy to gaudy high fantasy full of arcane technology and floating citadels. The qunari, Dragon Age’s massive horned race, have been the biggest victims of these changes.

Dragon Age 2 was peak qunari. Back in Origins, the qunari didn’t play much of a role, and they weren’t a playable race. Instead we just got Sten, who largely looked like a very buff dude—sans horns. But DA2 gave us a whole army of them, setting up shop in Kirkwall, and they were badasses. Massive, intimidating, all muscles and warpaint with massive horns that gave them a devilish silhouette. This …

When Stephen Curry ran off a DeMarcus Cousins screen in the closing seconds of Game 6 of the NBA Finals last Thursday night, caught a Draymond Green pass, and launched a shot that could have won the game for Golden State — and extend the series to a deciding Game 7 on Sunday in Toronto — Warriors coach Steve Kerr felt certain he’d be working on Father’s Day. “I always think every shot Steph takes is going in,” says Kerr. But Curry’s shot, which was expertly contested by Toronto power forward Serge Ibaka, bounced off the back of the rim, effectively ending Golden State’s hopes for a three-peat. Kerr, Curry and Green, the three men who, minus Klay Thompson (who left the game early with a freakish and unfortunate ACL injury) were most respons…
