Out with the old, in with the AI: generative technology is ready to steal the show and reshape the entertainment industry in ways we’ve never seen before. According to International Data Corp, the media sector is witnessing an unparalleled boom in AI investments, with a whopping five-year compound annual growth rate of over 30%. Stats like these, among many others, circulating online, bring up thought-provoking questions within the entertainment industry today. For example, could AI be the driving force behind a significant shift in how entertainment is produced and consumed in the future? Does the rise of AI in the entertainment world present a challenge to artists and other creative minds in the sector?

Interestingly enough, Google Bard (the search giant’s answer to Microsoft’s popular Bing Chat) was recently asked about its capabilities.  The AI chatbot disclosed that generative AI thrives in “tasks that require creativity.” This revelation, like others, may not be entirely comforting to artists and creative professionals in the entertainment industry; however, it could hint at how the future of entertainment will be shaped by the fusion of AI and human innovation as AI in the entertainment world continues to grow.

So, what’s in store for the entertainment industry as AI takes the spotlight? Ashley Russo, Founder & President of ASR Media Productions, recognizes the undeniable impact of AI on the entertainment and news sectors. Yet, she believes that human connection is vital for truly realizing customers’ visions.

Ashley Russo’s Thoughts: 

“Production in both the entertainment industry and the news industry are being greatly improved by the use of AI. However, when it comes to relating to customers and creating their vision and bringing it to life, I don’t think anything will ever replace people.”

Google's new TPU systems tackle AI memory and data protection with existing chips

Google's new TPU systems tackle AI memory and data protection with existing chips

Google Cloud has added two systems to its eighth-generation TPU lineup. Network World reports that TPU 8tx is Google Cloud’s first TPU with confidential computing, developed with AMD, and Zeniteq says it uses TPU 8t silicon for secured inference. Google says TPU 8i Max packages two TPU 8i chips together, doubling bandwidth and SRAM while increasing HBM capacity by about a third.

  • 01Neither system uses a new accelerator design: TPU 8tx pairs TPU 8t silicon with fifth-generation AMD EPYC hosts and Google's Boardfly network, while TPU 8i Max packages two existing TPU 8i chips together.
  • 02TPU 8i Max doubles memory bandwidth and on-chip SRAM but raises HBM capacity by 33%, and bandwidth and capacity answer different questions: how fast context data moves versus how much of it the system can hold.
  • 03The 2x latency claim for TPU 8tx is measured against TPU 8t, while the 8i Max gains are measured against TPU 8i. Neither figure says which system finishes a given job more cheaply.

ServiceNow pitches AI accounts payable workers against outsourcing contracts

ServiceNow pitches AI accounts payable workers against outsourcing contracts

At a BMO conference on November 12, ServiceNow said some customers are weighing its autonomous finance workers against business process outsourcing contracts. Over half its Q3 revenue came from models not tied to seats. With per-invoice pricing, the outsourcing contract becomes the benchmark, so finance shared-services and procurement leaders are the buyers who face the comparison.

  • 01Price an AI worker per invoice and the natural benchmark becomes the per-invoice cost of the outsourcing contract it might replace.
  • 02The value case for AI payables and receivables workers is being argued in finance metrics: duplicate invoices caught, days sales outstanding and days payable outstanding.
  • 03The published deployment results so far come from service desks, so finance buyers should ask for invoice-level evidence before moving outsourced work.

An Antarctic climber’s worst-day approach to Amphenol cable

An Antarctic climber’s worst-day approach to Amphenol cable

Raskesh Thakare, director of product engineering at Amphenol Times Fiber Communications, climbed Vinson Massif in Antarctica and draws parallels between mountaineering discipline and broadband cable design and testing. On the Wavelengths podcast he describes running prototypes across temperatures and scenarios, while Remee rates generic PVC jacket to -15C and Sea Wire advises avoiding PVC below -40C unless specially formulated.

  • 01Remee rates generic PVC cable jacket for -15C to 70C; Sea Wire puts plasticized PVC's floor at -40C and warns of embrittlement below it.
  • 02ASTM D746 defines brittleness temperature as the point where 50% of specimens break, one cold-side test used in qualifying jacket compounds for outside-plant cable.
  • 03ICEA's current outside-plant fiber standard, S-87-640-2023, dates to May 2023; Corning's September 2017 cable spec cites the 2006 edition alongside Telcordia GR-20-CORE.
