Here Is Why Lucid Group Can’t Afford To Sell Its New Gravity SUV at $80,000 Without Additional Saudi Cash

There’s something awfully impressive about the fact that Fallout 76 is still kicking, five years after its infamous release. In fact, it’s just received a major new DLC; one that takes the Vault dwellers to the Jersey Shore, of all places. Enter Fallout 76: Atlantic City – Boardwalk Paradise.

It's the first day of the last month of 2023, and we might be in for an exciting period in artificial intelligence space as companies continue developing this technology while protest groups keep highlighting its dangers. In the first news, Meta executives said that they found no downside to openly sharing its AI technology. This comes as the tech company keeps releasing open-source versions of its large language models. In other news, a group of visual artists has filed an amended lawsuit against text-to-image generating AI models after a US district judge dismissed parts of the lawsuit last month. This and more in today's AI roundup. Let us take a closer look.

You could call it the summer that Saudi Arabia swallowed sports. On June 6th, news broke that Saudi-backed LIV Golf was merging with the Professional Golfers’ Association, funded to the tune of over a billion dollars by the Saudi Public Investment Fund (PIF). In soccer, the world’s most popular and lucrative sport, the kingdom has brought global superstars such as Karim Benzema, Neymar, and Jordan Henderson to the desert to play their trade, laboring not only under the region’s sweltering heat but virulent criticisms of sportswashing. For established institutions, it was a summer of humbling disruption in which they had perhaps quietly sensed, for they would never admit it, the dawning of a new world order. 

Back in October, the US Department of Commerce introduced a number ofexport restrictions for a variety of Nvidia's products to countries such as China, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam. It was mostly the AI monster chips that took the brunt of the ban but the GeForce RTX 4090 was also included, which invariably resulted in RTX 4090 price increases and hoarding of the top Ada graphics card. However, it now looks like Nvidia will be releasing an RTX 4090 D, specifically for China, that will be exempt from the restriction.

The Dragon’s Dogma 2 showcase planned for today will reveal the game’s release date, according to its director.

While the world is busy developing artificial intelligence (AI) to take it to artificial general intelligence (AGI) stage, not many are giving a thought to the interpersonal relationship that is being created between humans and this emerging technology. AGI is human-leven intelligence, and thus, it can also empower AI to develop some level of consciousness. Speaking at a conference, Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud on Saturday highlighted the fundamental questions about AI - ethical treatment.

Even in a year where the news cycle has been as dominated by layoffs in the games industry as 2023 has been, the scale at which Embracer Group has made cutbacks where its staff is concerned has taken many by surprise. The company instituted a restructuring plan earlier in the year after it failed to close a $2 billion deal with Saudi Arabia’s Savvy Games Group, recently confirming that that had led to about 900 Embracer employees being laid off.

Capcom is finally ready to reveal Dragon’s Dogma 2 to the world.

Dragon's Dogma, the 2012 hack and slash RPG from Capcom, is getting a sequel after 11 years. And you thought the gap between Grand Theft Autos was large?

This morning, CAPCOM announced a new Dragon's Dogma 2 showcase scheduled for Tuesday, November 28th, airing at 1 PM Pacific Time or 9 PM GMT.

Following the 18 rating received earlier this week in Saudi Arabia, Dragon's Dogma 2 has been rated by the European equivalent, PEGI (Pan European Game Information). The rating is the same (18). It comes with warnings of violence and in-game purchases, with the latter suggesting there will be some form of microtransactions.

Capcom has announced a Dragon’s Dogma 2 showcase for later this month.
