Bungie’s recent Marathon stream where it showed early footage of the first-person extraction shooter sparked skepticism on social media and Reddit, prompting some people to predict it will suffer the same fate as Concord, the hero shooter that Sony took offline less than a month after its release. In response, a former Concord developer made a post on the Marathon subreddit asking people to give it a chance. “Concord failed to inspire players, and the messages was heard loud and clear,” the developer wrote using a Reddit account under the name MrSpug. “It was gut wrenching to see our project fail, and be the laughing stock of many online.” The developer, who worked at Firewalk Studios before Sony shuttered it a few months after taking the game down, said they sympathize with the Bungie developers who put a lot of effort into making Marathon and that they commend them for taking a chance in what is an extremely competitive genre. “I worked on Concord, and did my best,” they wrote. “We came up short, please don’t punish others for our mistakes.” Although Concord was a different kind of game than Marathon, they’re both still published by Sony. One of the biggest criticisms coming out of the Marathon stream was Bungie’s decision to not go the free-to-play route. Like Concord, Marathon will be cheaper than most new games. Bungie specifically said you can expect to pay less than a “full-priced” title, which might put it somewhere around $40 when it comes out in September. Having a price at all, however, has people wondering if it’ll end up like Concord. “I really didn’t want to be ‘that’ dev, calling attention to myself as if I have a horse in this race,” the former Concord developer said in a reply to their post. “But to call this game a failure before it’s even out, is wild to me.” A closed alpha for Marathon will go live on April 23.

Max's May lineup brings the return of two of the streamer's original comedy series.

The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has decide that its official stance towards AI-use in films is to take no stance at all, according to a statement the organization shared outlining changes to voting for the 98th Oscars. The issue of award-nominated films using AI was first raised in 2024 when the productions behind Best Picture nominees The Brutalist and Emilia Pérez admitted to using the tech to alter performances. "With regard to Generative Artificial Intelligence and other digital tools used in the making of the film, the tools neither help nor harm the chances of achieving a nomination, " AMPAS writes. "The Academy and each branch will judge the achievement, taking into account the degree to which a human was at the heart of the creative authorship when choosing which movie to award." While the organization at least reaffirms that human involvement is their primary concern, they also don't seem to believe that using AI — potentially trained on the ill-gotten work of their membership — is an existential problem. Hollywood labor unions have historically felt differently: One of several issues raised during the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes in 2023 was that AI could be used to replace the work of real people. The Brutalist and Emilia Pérez used it to modify vocal performances, but you don't have to connect too many dots to see generative AI playing an even more substantial role in the future. The Academy is more flexible than it's been in years, expanding membership, adding new award categories and alongside this AI statement, improving awards voting for the better. But it still seems like most industries are waiting for a decisive legal victory against an AI company to set a new standard before they change their tune towards the tech.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/tv-movies/using-generative-ai-will-neither-help-nor-harm-the-chances-of-achieving-oscar-nominations-201719890.html?src=rss

Amazon and Microsoft both appear to be slowing down or holding off on early data center projects.

Restaurant delivery in New York is not like restaurant delivery in any other part of the country. The city has a long history with food delivery thanks to its dense population and copious restaurants (roughly 25,000 at last count). It even had its own delivery brand, Seamless, launched over a quarter-century ago as SeamlessWeb in the city. Now, after a brief fall from public view, Seamless is back in New York. Seamless has operated under the thumb of a much larger brand for years. It merged with Grubhub in 2013, but retained its own branding in the biggest and arguably most important delivery market in the country. But when Grubhub got a new, foreign owner in 2020—Amsterdam-based Just Eat Takeaway (JET)—its new leaders moved to more or less erase Seamless’s branding. Grubhub would benefit from optimized marketing and streamline network effects, JET’s CEO said.  Just as pandemic shutdowns boosted the delivery business, Grubhub effectively ditched a brand that appealed to its largest market, opening the door to eager competition from national brands like Uber Eats and DoorDash. In hindsight, this was a mistake, one that Grubhub’s new, New York City-based owners want to correct. Wonder, the so-called mealtime superapp led by serial entrepreneur Marc Lore, bought Grubhub for $650 million in January. Lore hasn’t offered many details about Grubhub’s future, but it clearly sees value in the New York market.  “It’s interesting to think that there would be nostalgia around one of these digital-first delivery brands,” says Tim Calkins, a marketing professor at Northwestern University’s Kellogg School of Management. “I think people might be happy to hear that this brand is back and look at it as bringing back—and reconnecting with—an old friend.”  If that friend were a person, they’re old enough to order a cocktail. Seamless debuted in New York in 1999, well over a decade before upstart competitors would challenge its dominance. (At the time, two of DoorDash’s three founders were under age 10.) Back then, orders placed online often arrived at restaurants by fax, an almost quaint precursor to the high-tech networks that route these orders today.   Now, the stakes are even higher. Grubhub’s share of the restaurant delivery market has fallen to a distant third behind DoorDash and Uber Eats. Per recent reporting in Bloomberg, Grubhub controls just 5% of the delivery market nationwide, according to data from Bloomberg Second Measure. In New York, Bloomberg reports, numbers from YipitData suggest that Grubhub controls about a fifth of the delivery market. In an interview, Grubhub CEO Howard Migdal disputed this, saying Grubhub’s data shows it controls a “significantly higher” portion. Even with a slight tailwind, reviving the legacy brand will take work. The most important thing for Grubhub to do, Calkins says, is to highlight what makes Seamless different.  “There is something about being a local brand, a New York brand, that could be a differentiator,” he says.  That seems to be Grubhub’s plan. In a statement, the company praised Seamless for “consistently speaking to and delivering on the nuances of living in the city that only New Yorkers could appreciate”—a.k.a. the type of if-you-know-you-know nod that plays well in local ads plastered on bus shelters and inside subway cars.  Of course, getting New Yorkers’ attention is just part of the contest. “The challenge then,” Calkins says, “is you have to get people to care.”
