Steven Soderbergh Is Funding the Future of Experimental Sci-Fi

Steven Soderbergh wants to show you something strange.

One of our most eclectic — and prolific — modern filmmakers, the Oscar-winning director of Traffic, Contagion, and Logan Lucky has worked in every genre and at every budget level, whether he’s crafting high-gloss heist pictures (Out of Sight, the Ocean’s trilogy), neorealist experiments (Bubble), or paranoid thrillers of a modern persuasion (Unsane, Kimi).

Since first emerging into the rough-and-ready ’90s independent film scene with Sex, Lies, and Videotape, Soderbergh has proven himself an agile, compelling presence inside and outside of the studio system. And, having averaged one film or series a year since reemerging from a short-lived hiatus in 2017, including both conspiracy-thriller miniseries Full Circle and sci-fi comedy web series Command Z in the past six months alone, he shows no signs of slowing down.

But beyond his hot streak on television, Soderbergh is paying it forward at the box office this fall, furthering his long-established track record of working with other directors to help them realize their most radically experimental visions. As executive producer of Eddie Alcazar’s Divinity — a bizarro, black-and-white sci-fi saga — and Godfrey Reggio’s Once Within a Time — an anarchic, avant-garde fairy tale from a legend of nonnarrative filmmaking — Soderbergh is granting his seal of approval to two films unlike any other you’ll see this year.

People Are Using ChatGPT for Nutrition Advice — The Results Are Dangerous

There’s probably no greater struggle in our world of mouth-watering food porn and convenient food-delivery apps than healthy eating. Creating tasty yet nutritionally balanced meals feels like a chore with too many extra steps: researching recipes, buying groceries, cooking, and meal prepping.

In this day and age of generative artificial intelligence, some netizens are turning to chatbots to attempt to build a better relationship with food. On social media forums like Reddit, users have been sharing their experiences using ChatGPT, trading prompts, hacks, and tips for meals that are, for example, high in protein and low in carbohydrates or “good for weight loss.” The same goes for TikTok where there’s even more specific advice, such as creating “hormonally balanced” meals for reproductive issues like polycystic ovarian syndrome.

But using ChatGPT to eliminate the guesswork out of a healthy, nutritious lifestyle reveals an inconvenient truth about both the state of nutritional science and the way ChatGPT interprets scientific studies. Research reveals poor science lurks within the algorithms, which could contribute to potentially life-threatening risks such as disordered eating habits or nutrition advice that could trigger serious health problems.
