No one really knows how AI will affect the movie and TV business, but there's lots of fear it won't be good.

Political tension and industrywide uncertainty are the prevailing moods heading into Sunday night's 83rd Golden Globes. Hollywood is coming off a disappointing box-office year and now anxiously awaits the fate of one of its most storied studios, Warner Bros.

A Tesla Diner location could be coming to Palo Alto, as suggested in a recent post on X from Elon Musk. The world's richest person who is poised to become the world's first trillionaire posted on Oct. 31 that, The futuristic Tesla Diner is going well.
