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.”

Uber cut 3,300 jobs in September. Now it is giving 30,000 employees ChatGPT

Uber cut 3,300 jobs in September. Now it is giving 30,000 employees ChatGPT

Uber deployed ChatGPT Work to more than 30,000 employees seven weeks after cutting about 3,300 jobs (10% of corporate staff). The company framed layoffs as organizational restructuring, while the rollout expands a pilot that embedded AI engineers with teams to automate pieces of their work.

  • 01Uber expanded ChatGPT Work from a 1,000-person pilot to over 30,000 employees across operations, finance, marketing, and product teams.
  • 02During the pilot, 80% of early adopters were non-engineers, and AI pods of 30 engineers paired with teams to automate work such as analyzing operational data, localizing training materials, and building dashboards.
  • 03Uber’s rollout shows AI deployments can go beyond licenses: curated integrations, embedded technical support, an internal skills library, and plans to measure adoption and outcomes.

PHP2Shell: two critical PHP flaws put 34 million web services on the clock

PHP2Shell: two critical PHP flaws put 34 million web services on the clock

Two critical unauthenticated remote code execution flaws in PHP (CVE-2026-109618 and CVE-2026-109619) with CVSS 9.2 scores affected 34.4 million vulnerable services as of October 23, with no patches available for PHP 8.1 and older. Exploitation attempts reached millions within hours of disclosure, though confirmed compromises remain unproven, while attackers tested a Mirai-derived botnet variant against production servers.

  • 0134.4 million PHP services were vulnerable to the remote code execution flaws as of October 23, with roughly 272,000 hosts running supported branches that received patches
  • 02PHP 8.1 and older versions have no official patch available, requiring migration to a supported branch or acceptance of backported fixes from Linux distributions
  • 03Exploit attempts grew from tens of thousands within 45 minutes of disclosure to millions by October 22, but ASLR and proper error-display configuration on production servers have so far prevented confirmed code execution

Two-phase cold plates run in desert heat on warm water loops

Two-phase cold plates run in desert heat on warm water loops

UNICOM Engineering chief technologist Austin Hypes compares rear door, single-phase, two-phase and immersion cooling for AI racks on Flawless Execution. He says two-phase cold plates use dielectric refrigerant and can avoid chillers and evaporative towers in hot, dry sites, and immersion can keep servers up ten to 15 minutes and sometimes an hour or more after a cooling loss. Schneider Electric engineers cite estimates that single-phase holds about 55% of the 2026 liquid cooling market.

  • 01A Motivair by Schneider Electric engineer puts single-phase cold plates at an estimated 55% of the 2026 liquid cooling market and expects them to dominate for five to 10 years.
