looorg writes:Since there is apparently nothing these days that can't be improved by some AI. The Amazon fueled AI-company Fable Studio wants to re-create the chopped 43 minutes of Orson Welles movie "The Magnificent Ambersons". The recreation will be done from set images and other sources. The original was re-cut after RKO thought the movie was too long and that the ending was not happy enough. A new ending was created.But it won't have any commercial re-release and is purely a noncommercial academic project, due to rights and ownership. Also it might not be Welles more famous work so there might not be anything more then a minor cult following and not any kind of commercial success. So they do it cause they can and "AI" something something.https://www.indiewire.com/news/breaking-news/lost-ending-orson-welles-magnificent-ambersons-ai-remake-1235148945/Original SubmissionRead more of this story at SoylentNews.

upstart writes:TechSpot published an interesting article about NVIDIA revenue:While Nvidia's soaring revenues continue to command attention, its heavy reliance on a small group of clients introduces both opportunity and uncertainty. Market observers remain watchful for greater clarity around customer composition and future cloud spending, as these factors increasingly shape forecasts for the chipmaker's next phase of growth.A new financial filing from Nvidia revealed that just two customers were responsible for 39 percent of the company's revenue during its July quarter - a concentration that is drawing renewed scrutiny from analysts and investors alike. According to documents submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission, "Customer A" accounted for 23 percent of Nvidia's total revenue, while "Customer B" represented 16 percent.This level of revenue concentration is significantly higher than in the same period one year ago, when Nvidia's top two customers contributed 14 percent and 11 percent, respectively.Nvidia routinely discloses its leading customers on a quarterly basis. However, these latest numbers have prompted a fresh discussion about whether Nvidia's growth trajectory is heavily dependent on a small group of enormous buyers, particularly large cloud service providers.Original SubmissionRead more of this story at SoylentNews.
