GDI Video - Could AI Replace Tom Cruise? - DTNS 4711 Extended
Added 2024-02-22 22:59:57 +0000 UTCIs OpenAI’s text-to-video tool, Sora, a threat to the business of making TV shows and films? Plus, Google is pausing Gemini’s generation of people in images so it can adjust the model to produce more historically accurate results. And AT&T has been dealing with widespread service issues for more than ten hours affecting millions of subscribers across the US.
Sports Talk, With Charlotte Henry! - GDI 4711 starts at 36:55
Charlotte has thoughts about the Apple Sports app. How does gambling fit into all this? Why were so many leagues missing in the app? Will the NFL be added when the season starts? Will Apple combine sports news with scores and stats? Does the app need to be put back in the oven? What other sports sites or apps do you use? Charlotte moves off Substack and explains why. Is Substack turning into a social network? Who owns the subscribers? How many sports do you watch?
Starring Sarah Lane, Robb Dunewood, Charlotte Henry, Roger Chang, Joe.

Comments
Concerning the 'Apple Sports' app, I think it was released very unpolished, very unlike Apple. It seems very basic when you consider all the other sports apps out there. Its hard to determine why this, in essence, seems rushed. I think Tom mentioned on Wednesday when the app came out that NFL will be included, its just off season at the moment. Why not integrate this with Apple News (sports)? Seems a logical connection to feed sports stories here as well. I use sports apps all the time and compared to what is currently out there is very basic - unlike Apple. What is the long game here? Also, good show, and hi Charlotte.
