MIT graduate student Justin Swaney is applying machine learning to music production. Rhythmic flashes from a computer screen illuminate a dark room as sounds fill the air. The snare drum sample comes out crisp and clean by itself, but turns muddy in the mix, no matter how the levels are set. Welcome to the world of modern music-making -- and its discontents. Today's digital music producers face a common dilemma: how to mesh samples that may sound great on their own but do not necessarily fit into a song like they originally imagined.

Jim Bridenstine says you have to go to the moon to get to Mars. The Brad Pitt-helmed space epic "Ad Astra" sets a new standard for science fiction films, a former NASA engineer who served as a technical consultant for the movie told Fox News. "In my view, it sets a new standard for science fiction films, updating for all to see on the big screen some of the most fantastic imagery we have obtained of our solar system since films like '2001: A Space Odyssey' were released over 50 years ago," said Robert Yowell, who served as an engineer at NASA for 11 years and as a senior mission manager for SpaceX. The new film, set in a future in which humanity has colonized a few far-flung parts of the galaxy but still hasn't reckoned with its own existential torments, is three films rolled cohesively into one: a visually stunning movie about astronauts exploring places like Mars and Jupiter; a poignant father-son tale about coming to grips with abandonment and growing up with a certain kind of dad; and a social commentary on 21st-century concerns over environmental degradation, capitalism and our place in the world. Roy McBride, a man on a mission to the edge of our galaxy that he can't really refuse.

Maria Bartiromo, host of "Maria Bartiromo's Wall Street" on Fox Business Network will host at documentary on the future of artificial intelligence. On a recent Friday, Maria Bartiromo, the financial television icon, offered a visitor a tour of her new corner office in the News Corporation Building in midtown Manhattan. The office, lined with floor-to-ceiling windows, is furnished with a cognac leather sofa, chairs and a large desk. Bartiromo, who has been with Fox News and Fox Business for more than five years, extended her tenure with the networks with a multi-year deal earlier this week. By 10 a.m., she'd already logged four hours of on-camera work.

Fewer newspapers are being circulated now than in years past. Total daily newspaper circulation was estimated to be 28.6 million for weekday publications and 30.8 million for Sunday publications.

Artificial intelligence-based solutions may not be able to save us from deceptively altered videos, known as deepfakes, according to a new report from Data and Society. In the report, authors Britt Paris and Joan Donovan put deepfakes on a long continuum of media manipulation and say that they require social and technical fixes. "The panic around deepfakes justifies quick technical solutions that don't address structural inequality," Paris told The Verge. "It's a massive project, but we need to find solutions that are social as well as political so people without power aren't left out of the equation." "The relationship between media and truth has never been stable," the report reads.

The world around us is changing fast. Already, all of us are increasingly relying on computers to help us with all aspects of our day-to-day lives. With the use of smart devices such as phones, tablets, watches, and TV's, computers are automating many of the processes is that help speed up and improve the way we live our lives. The science of artificial intelligence has been explored rigorously over the years in film. Movies such as Ridley Scott's Blade Runner, Steven Spielberg's AI, Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey, and Ex Machina have all focused on artificial intelligence and how we humans will live alongside it.
