Futureproof
AI tools are flooding the culture ecosystem — and no corner of the arts space is immune. In this series, we're looking at the ways artists are embracing AI, pushing back on it, or trying their best to find an equilibrium with a new technology that's both sweeping and destabilizing. We talk to perfumers questioning the looming automation of scent creation, fanfic writers pushing back on archive scrapers, and illustrators replacing the AI that once replaced them. The tech isn't going away. Here's how artists are starting to deal with it.

Jim Cramer on NVIDIA Stock: 'I Don't See It Tripling From Here'
NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA) is one of the 11 stocks Jim Cramer put under the microscope recently. The company was mentioned during the episode, and here's what Mad Money's host had to say: 'If the semis became like the oils in 1980, then tech would… account for about 60% of the S&P 500. I think that's unrealistic… I just think we gotta curb our enthusiasm a little bit, and everyone knows I love the sector. It's hard to accept that a stock like NVIDIA, currently the largest company in the world, could double or even triple if Reitzes' (Ben Reitzes, Managing Director and Head of Technology Research at Melius Research) bullish forecast comes to life.

Jim Cramer Calls AMD a 'Semi-Meaningful Competitor' to NVIDIA
Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMD) is one of the 13 stocks Jim Cramer recently shed light on. During the episode, Cramer called the stock a 'semi-meaningful competitor' to NVIDIA. He said: 'Lately though, we've been seeing AMD, their only semi-meaningful competitor; stock's up like 40 straight points, win[s] a lot of business. Same with Cisco, Arm Holdings. Marvell Tech. Broadcom plays a huge role in these. Vertiv makes power and cooling equipment for the data center. A close up of a complex looking PCB board with several intergrated semiconductor parts.

Paramount May Not Be Done With ‘Transformers' Movies Yet
After 2024's Transformers One came and went, it's been a question of whether we'd actually see the Autobots and Decepticons on the big screen. The answer now appears to be 'yes,' and not just because Paramount's still pretending that crossover with G.I. Joe is happening. According to Matt Belloni at Puck News, the studio is spinning up several Transformers movies. One is said to be helmed by One director Josh Cooley, and will be live-action. The other is said to be coming from ex-franchise steward Michael Bay, who's currently operating as a 'hands-on producer' but could potentially direct. Bay dipped out after 2017's The Last Knight and has maintained a producer credit on later films, but the franchise hasn't been hitting those same financial highs since his exit behind the camera. Meanwhile, Puck didn't have any information on the other three rumored Transformers projects, and the G.I. Joe crossover is said to have two separate ideas that are both in early stages. Either way, this isn't exactly a new position for the franchise: pre-Last Knight, there were said to be a lot of Transformers movies in the works, but plans for a cinematic universe were halted after Knight underperformed. In 2021, Blue Beetle director Angel Manuel Soto was attached to direct a film, and Paramount's talked about doing a sequel to 2023's Rise of the Beasts. All Paramount reportedly has to do is have a Transformers movie in production by 2029 to maintain the rights to the IP. If it's got this many projects in the works, one of them should theoretically be ready by then. Will people be interested in them? That's another matter. Want more io9 news?
