Los Angeles County Museum of Art director Michael Govan will kick off South by South Lawn: A White House Festival of Ideas, Art and Action, which starts Monday morning with Govan's breakfast conversation with light-and-space artist James Turrell and architect David Adjaye. The event is a White House riff on the South by Southwest Conference & Festivals, where President Obama appeared this year in a keynote conversation. Govan's talk with Turrell and Adjaye, architect of the Smithsonian Institution's new National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington, will take place at the nearby Newseum. "I'm excited the arts are a lead in the White House's efforts to get us all to think big," Govan said by email. "James Turrell and David Adjaye are two big thinkers who have worked persistently to pursue their art and make meaningful contributions to our culture."

Westworld

Five years ago, Game of Thrones turned our expectations upside down. Here was a fantasy show that focused not on the portentous prophecies and heavy spellbooks, but on the politics and personalities of its medieval realm--and in the process, cultivated millions of fans. Now, HBO is hoping to do the same thing for futuristic science fiction with Westworld, a lavish adaptation of Michael Crichton's 1973 movie. Like Game of Thrones, Westworld has a mature, sophisticated approach to beloved genre ideas--but can a theme park full of malfunctioning robots capture the popular imagination the same way that Westeros did in 2011? As with the original movie, Westworld takes place in a special vacation resort where you can visit the Wild West and interact with shockingly lifelike robots.

Sony recently released two songs composed by AI and French composer Benoît Carré arranged, produced the songs, and wrote the lyrics. Sony has also announced a full album made by their AI to be released in 2017. Earlier, AI had written the screenplay for a short film (though it doesnt make too much sense, for now). It is already known that many media sources, including Yahoo, have been using AI to write articles for their websites. AI at Google has attempted its hand at poetry and with good result.

"This is not smart enough to be called artificial intelligence," he said. "This is about the existence of something you can talk to. A stuffed animal might not answer back, but people do talk to it, like my daughter once did this. But if it talked back, wouldn't that be better?

Robot" Season 2 has already concluded, but there are a lot of questions about the installment that fans are still asking. After the end credits of the season's final episode rolled, it was revealed that Trenton (Sunita Mani) and Mobley (Azhar Khan) were still alive. The scene also featured Leon (Joey Bada) asking the two for the time, prompting viewers to assume that he was sent by Whiterose (BD Wong) to catch the two members of fsociety. Bada appears to be hinting that the meeting was not planned at all and that he might not exactly be working for the Dark Army. In an interview with MTV, the rapper-actor said that while he has not been keeping up with the theories about the show, he knows that "a lot of people do think that he's Dark Army." Even though Bada did not answer directly, he did tease that Season 3 will be good for his character. He also confirmed that Leon is a real person, contrary to some theories saying he might just be a figment of Elliot's (Rami Malek) imagination. The rapper is not the only cast member looking forward to the upcoming season, though. Stephanie Corneliussen, who plays Joanna Wellick, has also shared her hopes for her character in the next installment. Speaking to Ars Technica, the actress said she is still looking forward to a reunion between Joanna and her husband Tyrell (Martin Wallstrom). Corneliussen also said that if she can have it her way, she would like for her character to cross paths and work with Angela (Portia Doubleday), who appeared to have started working with the Dark Army before the season ended, and Whiterose. Meanwhile, series creator Sam Esmail has already teased what fans can expect in the upcoming installment. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Esmail said the third season will uncover where Angela's true loyalty lies. It will also show how Dom (Grace Gummer) and Darlene's (Carly Chaikin) relationship will transform after it was revealed that the FBI knows all about fsociety's workings. Here's what Joey Bada and Stephanie Corneliussen have to say about "Mr.

For the first Green Umbrella program of the season, Saturday night at Walt Disney Concert Hall, John Adams conducted the Los Angeles Philharmonic New Music Group in five premieres -- four of them commissioned by the orchestra, including one by 17-year-old clarinetist Andrew Moses and another by Ingram Marshall, 74 and in too poor of health to have attended, whose "Flow" is special enough that it deserves to bring lasting glory to the orchestra. But because I didn't want Marshall's piece to get lost in a big evening, I've buried the lead: The New Music Group was followed by a late-night appearance of wild Up, with Christopher Rountree conducting his increasingly impressive young ensemble in three more premieres. One was his own dazzling violin concert featuring Jennifer Koh as soloist, yet another L.A. Phil commission. Exiting the Grand Avenue staircase close to midnight, we were given bells for audience participation in still another L.A. Phil-commissioned world premiere, this by the collective Lucky Dragons. Even with all that, I've buried the lead, again.

In the history of cinema, few images are as iconic as Yul Brynner's gunslinger, relentlessly pursing his quarry: Westworld theme-park guest Peter Martin (Richard Benjamin), the sole survivor of a software glitch that turned the robots populating its imaginary worlds into killers. "It was terrifying, terrifying, but so much of it has become kind of iconic," says producer Jonathan Nolan, who with co-producer (and wife) Lisa Joy, is steering the HBO television reboot of the film. "Yul Brynner, this unstoppable creation, wearing the same wardrobe from The Magnificent Seven, is iconic." Though the film, just 88 minutes long and written and directed by Michael Crichton, seems to wholly belong to the 1970s in tone and style, its themes made a reboot unusually relevant, Nolan says. "The world has obviously changed in the decades since the original film, but changed only in ways that make the original premise that much more interesting," he says.

I'm taking Andrew Ng's coursera course and I bought a geforce 970 because I heard that GPUs are faster for machine learning than CPUs. But what software/plugins/drivers do I actually need to tell my computer to use the GPU to process ML/DL algorithms?
