You'll only need to remember the name Incention for the brief moment you're reading this post, because you'll likely never have to think about it again. As Variety reports, it's a new platform for building new Hollywood IP using the combined power of AI tools, fan contributions and the blockchain. Incention describes itself as "a new blueprint for building modern franchises, where IP holders, communities, and agents collaborate seamlessly in an endless playground rooted in real IP." Because, of course, the real problem plaguing Hollywood today is the inability to build franchises with user-generated content, unproven AI tools and blockchain hype. Incention's first franchise -- the modern Hollywood term for "story" -- is Emergence, a sci-fi premise from Blade and The Dark Knight writer David S. Goyer.

In a desperate attempt to shun western technology, President Vladimir Putin has ordered the creation of a new Russian video game console. Now, as a Russian chief admits it won't be as good as the Xbox or the PS5, commentators have flocked to social media to mock the upcoming machine, dubbing it the'Putindo 64'. On Reddit, someone posted: 'The Putindo is gonna be a wild collectors item in a few decades.' Another user posted'I only hyev tetris' in a reference to the famous puzzle video game created in 1985 by Russia's Alexey Pajitnov. Another said: 'what is going on with russian government, why are they trying to develop a console when they are fighting at the front.'

'The rate at which we'll be able to generate knowledge will dramatically increase,' Dr Rivero said.
