As a researcher, I recently came across an exciting development in the world of artificial intelligence. Billionaire Elon Musk, through his company xAI, made an announcement on X (previously known as Twitter) that they had initiated the training process for their Grok Large Language Model using what is claimed to be “the most powerful AI training cluster in existence.” Musk expressed his confidence that by December of this year, the Grok LLM would surpass all other AI models and become the “most powerful AI by every metric.”

As a researcher studying the history of video game consoles, I can’t help but reflect on the enduring legacy of the Xbox 360. For millions of gamers worldwide, this console symbolized a “golden era” of gaming, and despite the passage of nearly 19 years since its initial announcement, there are still countless enthusiasts who continue to use and cherish their Xbox 360.

The Xbox 360 Marketplace, the go-to destination for all digital games on this console, is officially shutting down.

Some fans have voiced their concerns over the difficulty and balancing of the bosses on Steam, resulting in mixed reviews.

R. Martin unexpectedly have something in common. This commonality does not involve any obsession with incest.”

Launched in 2022, Elden Ring, FromSoftware’s expansive open-world action RPG, has seen a bustling community of speedrunners. These gamers strive to complete titles as swiftly as possible with added constraints, making their feats more challenging than usual. The latest Shadow of the Erdtree DLC release has reinvigorated this vibrant community. One renowned speedrunner recently proposed a challenge, providing skilled players a chance to claim a substantial five-figure reward.
