Your CNN account Log in to your CNN account Still, Microsoft believes the changes will improve the experience of people at work in a significant way by allowing them to do tasks easier and less tedious, freeing them up to be more analytical and creative. The company said it can still make “simple reasoning errors” or be “overly gullible in accepting obvious false statements from a user,” and does not fact check. Although OpenAI has made vast improvements to its latest model, GPT-4 has similar limitations to previous versions. Microsoft’s new Bing browser has already been using GPT-4, for better or worse.Ī Microsoft spokesperson said 365 users accessing the new AI tools should be reminded the technology is a work in progress and information will need to be double checked. But the update, and the moves by larger tech companies to integrate this technology, could add to challenging questions around how AI tools can upend professions, enable students to cheat, and shift our relationship with technology. OpenAI said it added more “guardrails” to keep conversations on track and has worked to make the tool less biased. The update has stunned many users in early tests and a company demo with its ability to draft lawsuits, pass standardized exams and build a working website from a hand-drawn sketch. The news also comes two days after OpenAI, the company behind Microsoft’s artificial intelligence technology and the creator of ChatGPT, unveiled its next-generation model, GPT-4. Earlier this week, rival Google announced it is also bringing AI to its productivity tools, including Gmail, Sheets and Docs.ĭuring a presentation to its customers on Thursday, Microsoft outlined its road map for how it plans to bring artificial intelligence to its Microsoft 365 services, including Outlook, Teams, PowerPoint, Excel and Word. Microsoft’s announcement comes a month after it brought similar AI-powered features to Bing and amid a renewed arms race in the tech industry to develop and deploy AI tools that can change how people work, shop and create. Users can then ask Business Chat to do tasks such as write a status report by summarizing all of the documents across platforms on a certain project, and then draft an email that could be sent to their team with an update. ![]() The agent will know what’s in a user’s email and on their calendar for the day as well as the documents they’ve been working on, the presentations they’ve been making, the people they’re meeting with, and the chats happening on their Teams platform, according to the company. Microsoft is also introducing a concept called Business Chat, an agent that essentially rides along with the user as they work and tries to understand and make sense of their Microsoft 365 data. With the new features, users will be able to transcribe meeting notes during a Skype call, summarize long email threads to quickly draft suggested replies, request to create a specific chart in Excel, and turn a Word document into a PowerPoint presentation in seconds. 5 jaw-dropping things GPT-4 can do that ChatGPT couldn't ![]() ![]() ![]() It also plays into the characters’ strengths, like handing resident archaeologist Nico Robin the reigns for unraveling the mystery behind Waford’s connection to the sky people and Weatheria. One Piece Odyssey‘s story also takes care to weave Waford’s lore into the Straw Hats’ memories, like tucking a book about Waford into an unsuspecting Water Seven library. He has connections with One Piece villain Smoker and a clear understanding of the World Government that affected many of the Straw Hats’ adventures in the anime and manga. Meanwhile, Adio doesn’t travel with Luffy’s crew as much but is still believably integrated into the One Piece world. Lim gets most of the attention because she accompanies the Straw Hats throughout their most pivotal moments in Memoria, and ultimately learns the value of friendship (more specifically, “nakama” or friends so close they might as well be family) as a result. You’d think this would detract from its appeal as an anime arc, but that just means that Odyssey‘s story doesn’t conflict with the wide plot of the franchise.Įven better, Lim and Adio visibly develop as characters over the course of the game. It also builds the plot around two original characters, Lim and Adio, which separates the story from the main plot of the manga and anime. It references other characters, entities, and stories that point to the existing One Piece canon. A great anime filler arcĮven with its pacing issues, One Piece Odyssey respectfully handles its source material. You wouldn’t need to run back and forth for a pair of keys or pester NPCs for clues. ![]() At that point, players could easily tire of running throughout the entire town and into the sewers to progress what would’ve taken half as much time to watch.Īfter all, anime would focus solely on story. One Piece Odyssey didn’t appeal to me as much as it did to our reviewer, but we agreed that the game was an “entertaining one thanks to the solid characters, plot, and world-building.” The backtracking problem becomes a glaring issue in Alabasta and continues as far as Water Seven. I hope to see you all again soon.In our four-star review, we note that the game suffers from a slow start but picks up the pace after its lengthy Alabasta chapter. We hope this game pleases as many fans as possible. We hope to be able to bring fans the additional story downloadable content One Piece Odyssey “Reunion of Memories” very soon.Īs you can see, we are working hard to ensure that players from all over the world can keep enjoying One Piece Odyssey for a long time to come. More detailed information will be revealed soon, so please stay tuned! Of course, we won’t spoil all of them, so you may be surprised to find other characters where you least expect them! The downloadable content’s difficulty level will be based on the recommended level for clearing the main story, and we’ve prepared many battles that demand a more tactical approach, as well as some special winning conditions, so you can expect to find a new kind of challenge.Īlso, as you will see in the teaser trailer we’ve just released, there will be some new characters that were not included in the main game. One of the key points of this downloadable content is the theme of “new hidden story with bonds.”Īnother is that the story will more heavily focus on battles. The development of this downloadable content plans to incorporate fan favorite stories and battle segments into One Piece Odyssey. The trailer has also been released today alongside this video, so please check it out! So we’ve prepared a new trailer to give you an idea of what’s going to be included. We are currently developing an additional story downloadable content for One Piece Odyssey. ![]() Some of those requests have already been implemented through update patches, but we are looking forward to continue adding as much of the requested content as possible, so we would like to invite you all to keep playing One Piece Odyssey. Upon its release, we have been listening to lots of feedback and requests from the players. This game was created with the concept of “an RPG adventure inside the world of One Piece,” integrating various elements to allow players to experience their own adventure alongside the Straw Hat Pirates while enjoying the incredibly varied and wonderful world of One Piece. We would like to invite all the fans around the world to join the Straw Hat Pirates on this adventure. One Piece Odyssey released this past January to commemorate One Piece comics’ 25th anniversary.

There are some catchy hooks as well-on “Racer,” Bourne croons nimbly alongside some late-’90s R&B keyboards-but for the most part, the beats on Pi’erre 4 speak the loudest. On “How High,” he dives into his formative years in Queens (where he split time between South Carolina): “Just a college nigga, honor roll/I dropped out of college, lost my home.” On “Try Again,” he speaks of the loneliness that comes with his sudden rise in fame: “It’s just me, and I’m alone again/Spending all my money on my own again.” All the obvious tropes are here-money-chasing anthems (“Doublemint”), odes to jealous exes (“Feds”)-but he hints at a more interesting story in between. Which is a shame, because Bourne puts effort into his lyrics. Add this to the fact that none of the songs evolve much over their runtimes -put Pi’erre 4 in waveform, and it’d look like a bread loaf, a hunk of sound with no peaks or valleys-and you start to tune out. His voice often drowns in the mix as a result. Unlike the MCs who buy his beats, none of which are featured here, he fully saturates his voice in Auto-Tune, more akin to T-Pain or Fetty Wap than Uzi. ![]() Once you get past the initial dopamine rush, Bourne starts to run into trouble. Most of the tracks are accentuated by over-the-top sound effects-a lion roar, or a reworked vintage DJ drop (“ Damn Pi’erre, where’d you find this?”)-that give the project the momentum of a street-bought mixtape. The fuzzy synth notes on “Be Mine” sound like they were played on an electrified toy piano, while “Romeo Must Die” turns on a distorted refrain that sounds recorded 500 feet below the ocean surface. ![]() Bourne’s beats hum with the same off-kilter melodies that made “Magnolia” so thrilling, and the edges are filled with interesting noises. The answer is not quite-his heavily Auto-Tuned vocals have a tendency to get washed out by his hazy backdrops, and Pi’erre 4 is one-note as a result, more vibe than statement.Īt least the vibe is enticing. Which brings us to The Life of Pi’erre 4, his major-label debut and the first real test of whether he can carry a project. Rather than continue to feed hits to stars like Carti, Lil Uzi Vert and 21 Savage, Bourne has put all his attention into his solo career as a rapper. ![]() ![]() All other NFL-related trademarks are trademarks of the National Football League.

That's what our job is, that's what we'll evaluate and it's certainly an ongoing one that is going to become more important in succeeding days." First time through for any of us doing anything doesn't go as smoothly as it does when you've had multiple repetitions at that experience. Again our job is to evaluate the overall performance and progress of the players and I think as we get further into camp that's easier to do when everybody has done their assignment multiple times and multiple looks and they're confident, they know what they're doing and all that. "Sometimes those are mistakes, sometimes they're learning experiences, sometimes there could be mistakes made by multiple people involved in the specific part of play that need to be ironed out. All of this equates to 39 throws on Sunday."I think in the early stages there's definitely timing, confidence, anticipation issues that are different from player to player depending on who they're in there with, what the play was and how things unfolded and so forth," Belichick continued. When you consider Newton has a bigger arm than Hoyer, and his surgically repaired shoulder seems to be holding up, and he’s clearly the more athletic of the two veterans, it would appear he’d be the easy choice for the Patriots. But it’s hard to imagine a productive offense with these skill players quarterbacked by Hoyer. If Hoyer starts games this year, you can understand it from a knowledge and timing perspective. However, his ceiling is capped by limited arm strength and playmaking abilities that lead to tons of check-downs rather than pushing the ball downfield into closing passing windows. The veteran QB knows the playbook, makes all the proper checks and audibles at the line and gets the ball out quickly and to the right receiver. In his last practice with Cam Newton out due to misunderstanding COVID-19 rules, the Patriots rookie quarterback put forth his best effort of the offseason. ![]() ![]() ![]() When Hoyer is in there, the Patriots offense runs a lot smoother than the other quarterbacks at practice. Newton hasn’t been perfect, but without a question, he’s been far better than Stidham.Īs for Hoyer, he’s been mostly solid, but he has the lowest ceiling of all three Patriots quarterbacks. Stidham has been battling a hip injury which has kept him out of practice or limited through the latter part of last week and into this week.Īlso, Stidham has struggled with interceptions having thrown seven of them during the training camp practice sessions. Stidham was at one point considered Newton’s biggest competition for the starting spot, but he has seemingly fallen all the way to QB3 status. More Throws in Practice Means the QB1 Spot is Newton’s to Lose There are several reasons for Newton’s increased workload, and all of them point to the 2015 NFL MVP being firmly in the lead for the team’s starting quarterback spot. Previous high was 36 from Jimmy Garoppolo (8/4/17) and Brian Hoyer (8/3/18 when Tom Brady got his birthday off). Cam Newton's 39 throws in team drills were the most I've ever recorded in a single practice (going back to 2016). ![]() ![]() Beginners and intermediate users who find tools like Lightroom, Photoshop, or Capture One overwhelming.Photographers who are willing to relinquish some control in exchange for a more streamlined editing method.Let’s be very clear before you waste your time reading this essay only to find out this program isn’t true for you. Regardless of your skill level, you can still achieve great results without needing to spend months or years trying to become an expert in the program.Īnd if you’ve ever tried learning Photoshop, you’ll know what I mean. Similar modifications would require a lot more steps and Photoshop skills to complete in Photoshop.Ī helpful analogy for Luminar Neo is an editing application that makes expert tweaks available to everyone. For instance, Portrait Bokeh AI adds a realistic blur to the background with a slider, while Sky AI lets you click to replace the skies in any image. The main selling point of this tool is that it simplifies modifications that would have required multiple sliders in Lightroom or Photoshop prior. As a result, I believe Luminar Neo is the best photo editor for beginners. As a result, all you have to do to apply an effect is drag an Effect slider.Īs a result, Luminar Neo allows you to expertly edit a photo even if you have no experience with photo editing. Although Luminar Neo includes traditional tools like white balance and tone curves, these adjustments have been replaced by tools like Sky Enhancer, Golden Hour Glow, and Skin AI.

Is there anything else you've got coming up that you can speak on? I have so many things coming up I could not even possibly name them all! Just keep a look out on that horizon because it will be something spectacular I am sure!! What else goes into your gig? It’s not really a job at all! It’s a privilege! I get to meet everyone, tell them about the game, geek out about random things while they wait in line for the game and then I get to take awesome pictures with everyone! I have had such a great time and everyone has been so kind it does not feel like a job at all! It would seem like your job is just about looking hot and taking photos with fans. We both care so much for others and can sometimes be a little naive. I feel so blessed!!Īre there any similarities between Juliet's character your own? Juliet is exciting, innocent, naïve and all around a gorgeous teenage cheerleader who just wants to save everyone she loves! I feel like Juliet and I are very similar in many ways. you know that super awesome sexy guy from the Walking Dead? I was also able to meet one of my most favorite horror movie directors, James Gunn who is a hoot in person! I was also able to meet Suda 51!

In the case (pun intended) of the Fire HD 10 Kids Pro, you can get them in Sky Blue, black, Doodle, or Intergalactic. So why is this so? It's about all of the extras, which adds up to a good value, as we found through our hands-on testing.Īmazon's Kids Edition Fire Tablets all come with a kid-proof case with a built-in stand to protect the devices from inevitable accidents. You see, the Fire HD 10 Kids Pro is significantly more expensive than the Fire HD 10 Tablet, even though they are essentially the same device. Some may object to this pick based on the price alone. Significantly more expensive than "regular" Fire HD 8 Tablet The Fire 7 is already cheap, but you can often find it on special for even less, making this practically an impulse buy. The battery life is decent, and you can add to its internal storage with a microSD card. You can still access all of your favorite content from Amazon and other services through this device, and even though it's not HD resolution, the screen looks good enough for most use cases. You can also add Amazon Kids+ to this or any other Fire Tablet whenever you want. With the savings you'll get on this device, you can easily afford to pick up a protective case (maybe one that isn't neon pink or yellow). This would be a great option if you're looking to get an affordable family tablet to share with your kids. As with the other Fire Tablets, this device comes with 2-megapixel front and rear cameras and a 720p HD video camera, so you can still snap some decent shots and video chat to your heart's content. This version is the perfect portable companion for anyone who wants a low-cost tablet to watch their favorite shows on, play games, read their favorite new Kindle book, or maybe occasionally surf the web or check Facebook. It's a fantastic device for reading books, newspapers, magazines, or even websites - particularly if you need or want to enable a larger font because there's just so much more screen space to view your content.Įvery excellent product line has its entry point, and for the Fire Tablets, that's the Fire 7, which we loved when we reviewed it. While the 2019 edition of the Fire HD 10 was a bit heavy for some at just over a pound (17.8 ounces), the latest version is a bit lighter at 16.4 ounces. You can use that storage and processing speed to watch hours of Prime Video, Netflix, or Showtime, and playing mobile games on that full HD screen is a delight. It features a VGA front-facing camera with 720p HD video recording, and has the same 2MP cameras as on the HD 8.Īs its size would suggest, the Fire HD 10 comes with more storage (up to 64GB) that is expandable up to 512GB, and it has the best processor in the Fire Tablet line. The Fire HD 10 also comes with Dolby Atmos, dual stereo speakers, and a headphone jack. ![]() It offers up to 12 hours of battery life, including video watching, web browsing, and music listening - which we discovered through our hands-on testing. The Fire HD 10 (2021) is the largest Amazon tablet with a full HD 1080p display, coming in at 1920x1200 resolution. ![]() Try finding another Android tablet or iPad of this size at anywhere close to this price. We know it's the most expensive Fire, but it's still darn affordable. If you want the most immersive video and gaming experience on a Fire Tablet, you want a Fire HD 10. We would have liked to see at least a 90Hz panel if not 120Hz, but that just gives Amazon some room for improvement if it ends up releasing a successor. Something that can't be remedied is the display, which only comes in with a 60Hz refresh rate. On the bright side, it's pretty easy to sideload the Play Store onto the Fire Max 11, so that can be remedied fairly quickly. Unfortunately for some, at least, you're still stuck without the Play Store or Google Play Services, instead needing to rely on the Amazon App Store. The former lets you prop up the Fire Max 11 anywhere, while the latter lets you jot down some notes and even works with many of the best Chromebooks. Alongside this new tablet, Amazon also released a detachable keyboard case and a USI 2.0 stylus pen. ![]() Where the Fire Max 11 really stands out is in the plethora of productivity-focused accessories. On the front and back, you'll find 8MP cameras, which will be just fine for participating in video calls or snapping quick pictures. Powering the device is the MediaTek MTK8188J octa-core processor paired with 4GB of RAM and up to 128GB of expandable storage. As the name implies, this Fire Tablet sports an 11-inch display with a 2000x1200 resolution, making for the best and biggest display ever found in an Amazon tablet. In a world where Android tablets are largely considered inferior to the iPad, Amazon decided to shake things up a bit with the release of the Fire Max 11. ![]() |
