Hello Unlimited Leaguers! This week, we are seeing double. We have Supergirl versus her clone, Galatea, and the Emerald Archer, Green Arrow, is helping her out on this mission. We are also introduced to the conspiracy theorist and master detective, The Question, as he tags along this episode. In the past, Superman went rogue, which frightened the military and big business, so they developed a failsafe. They cloned Supergirl while she was in a coma from the battle to create Galatea. They sent Tea to take out a whistle-blowing scientist and General Hardcastle to eliminate any loose ends. Except Supergirl is seeing what Tea is doing in her dreams! Well, we can't have that, so the two women battle in a hologram training arena. The Question also confronts Galatea, and says the link works both ways. So, Supergirl's conscience is coming across that link, and Galatea wants to eliminate Supergirl to break the link. The Cabal orders the lab to be destroyed, and it appears that Galatea was destroyed with it. Our STAR Labs scientist, Dr. Hamilton, lies to Supergirl saying they didn't clone her. However, in the lab is an unconscious and healing Galatea.   Contact Information: If you want to join in the discussion, you can submit feedback via email to TomorrowsLegendsPodcast@gmail.com or at at https://www.speakpipe.com/TomorrowsLegends .

Había una vez...Un cuento, un mito y una leyenda

Hacer click aquí para enviar sus comentarios a este cuento.Juan David Betancur Fernandezelnarradororal@gmail.comHabía una vez un hombre que tenía  al mismo tiempor una gran arte y una gran frustración, siendo el gran escultor de Chipre todos reconocían en el su capacidad de crar hermosas figuras pero su gran frustración era que ninguna mujer en todo Chipre le parecía suficiente para su gusto. Ahora el se encontraba entrando a la oficina de aquel medico que supuestamente lo iría a tratar de alguno de sus males y allí la vio.  Ella estaba en la sala de espera, posiblemente ansiosa a que la hicieran pasar y El destino, que alguna vez había convocado a dioses y milagros lo llevaba a encontrarla en aquel lugar. Pigmalión la reconoció por el lóbulo de la oreja. Recordaba haber pasado tres días enteros puliendo ese lóbulo, eligiendo el grano más fino de la lija para que el mármol capturara la luz de la tarde. Ahora, sin embargo, esa oreja sostenía un pendiente de mal gusto  y la piel que la rodeaba tenía una pequeña mancha que denotaba el mal uso de aquel lóbulo perfecto«Se está estropeando», pensó él con la crueldad clínica de un artista. «Mi obra maestra se está echando a perder».La mujer que obviamente lo había visto ingresar se sintió perturbada por su presencia y aunque trataba de ignorarlo sentía  su mirada constante sobre ella. Su nombre era Galatea y era la más bella mujer de todo Chipre sin duda alguna. No necesitaba  levantar la vista para saber que él la estaba juzgando. Conocía muy bien como aquel hombre al que detestaba era quien mejor la podía observar y juzgar.. Era la misma densidad de la mirada  que sentía cuando él la miraba en su taller, no con amor, sino buscando dónde corregir hasta el mínimo detalle que ella pudiera tener. La veía siempre como una obra en proceso y ella realmente ya estaba perfecta. En su mente de mujer beldad pensaba —Sigue mirándome como si fuera un bloque de piedra —pensó ella, apretando la mandíbula—. Nunca quiso una mujer. Querías un ser que sirviera como reflejo de su propio ego. Queria la más perfecta mujer posible. El silencio entre los dos era espeso, el frio de sus miradas podía sentirse en toda la habitacion.Pigmalión recordó la historia de aquella mujer. Siendo el el gran escultor de su tiempo había llegado a la creación de la más bella y perfecta mujer y cansado de las imperfecciones de las mujeres de Chipre  sentía que ninguna era lo suficientemente perfecta para el. En cambio aquella era perfecta. Una figura como ninguna otra y con la mirada más enigmática que mujer alguna pudiera tener. Era ella toda suya era su Galatea. La perfección hecha piedra. Desesperado le hizo la plegaria a afrodita que le permitiera que aquella estatua de mármol fuera su propia mujer. Pigmalión recordó el momento exacto en que la piedra gracias a la intervención de la bella afrodita se volvió tibia bajo sus dedos. Sus ojos se posaron sobre el y su cuerpo frio y firme se convirtió en una figura dulce y suave. Fue el momento más glorioso de su vida. Pero ahora, viendo cómo ella tosía discretamente y se acomodaba el abrigo, se dio cuenta del error de cálculo en ese momento. El mármol era eterno; la carne al contario era  una decepción constante. El mármol no criticaba ni sentía celos, El mármol no tenía reclamos constantes sobre cosas pequeñas  y no te miraba con decepción cuando llegabas tarde.Ella por su parte al encontralo en aquella habigtacion recordaba aquel frio. Pero no el frio del marmo que antes podía sentir como su cuerpo. No Galatea recordaba El frío de no ser reconocida y ser ignorada en cada asunto de la vida. Recordaba como aquel famoso escultor la hacia sentir menos en cada ocasión social cuando se referia a ella como su creación. . A veces, cuando él l

"Whiter than cottage cheese", "bright as an unripe grape"? This is some world class woo-pitching, and Polyphemus the one-eyed wonder has high hopes that such romantic language will win fair Galatea, sea nymph extraordinaire, to his hirsute side. He may not be much to look at, monobrow and all, but the Cyclops boasts that he comes with many benefits: great musical skill, a cheez whiz packed man cave, and 1000 head of cattle. As Theocritus the famous Syracusan poet tells the tale, should we take it as farce? Or, is the song a serious philosophical inquiry into the healing nature of poetry? Join the guys this week as they take a close look at Idyll XI, an awkward, adolescent love song that the Alexandrian poet composes for that shaggy Cyclops as a backstory, before he encountered Odysseus. The insights of Brooks Otis, Erling Holtsmark, Robert Schmiel, and yes, Dronebrella, set the stage. So, cue your mixtape with Air Supply or Survivor, pray for gills, and don't miss this one!

Vincenzo Patanè"Una piccola goccia d'inchiostro"il ramo e la foglia edizioniwww.ilramoelafogliaedizioni.itIl romanzo, ambientato nel rione Sanità a Napoli, è basato su una storia vera e prende l'avvio dal casuale ritrovamento di sessantasei lettere che il protagonista, Elvio, zio dell'autore, inviò a sua sorella dal 1953 al 1965. Nello svolgersi delle vicende emergono via via i turbamenti sessuali adolescenziali di Elvio, la consapevolezza di essere attratto dagli uomini, la scoperta di non essere il solo a provare pulsioni di quel tipo, l'esplorazione del sesso, il primo amore. Parallelamente c'è la consapevolezza dell'impossibilità di esprimere a voce alta ciò che provava, da un lato per un soffocante controllo familiare, improntato a un rigido rigore morale, dall'altro per una società che, con il fascismo prima e con la società perbenista del dopoguerra, condannò duramente l'omosessualità.Nel romanzo vi sono molti stralci di quelle lettere, grondanti di umanità, focalizzate in particolare su due episodi: il viaggio che effettuò, ventiseienne, in Danimarca nel 1954, al fine di ottenere una riassegnazione di sesso sulla scia di quella di Christine Jorgensen del 1952, e la successiva relazione con un giovane napoletano, un amore sfortunato ma che pure mutò le sorti della sua vita.*«Per più di un'ora non si stancò di osservare i particolari di quel corpo che pareva emanare una luce, come se sotto la sua pelle ardesse una fiamma. I suoi occhi lo scandagliarono quasi volessero entrarci dentro, per scoprire una volta per tutte i segreti di quella perfezione, mentre i numerosi nei che ammantavano il suo dorso gli sembrarono come le stelle di un ideale firmamento di un microcosmo in cui si rifletteva tutta la meravigliosa semplicità del creato. A un certo punto, senza che neanche se ne accorgesse, le lacrime gli rigarono il volto. In quel momento, si sentiva grato alla vita per avergli concesso questo privilegio. Non aveva mai provato una felicità così grande.»Vincenzo Patanè nato ad Acireale ma napoletano per essenza e cultura, ha insegnato Storia dell'Arte presso il Liceo Artistico di Venezia.

In 1935, 12-year-old Lillian Gobitas and her little brother William were kicked out of their Pennsylvania public school — not for misbehaving, but for quietly refusing to salute the flag, which they believed went against their Jehovah's Witness faith. Their dad sued, arguing the school had violated their right to religious freedom. But in a sweeping decision, the Supreme Court sided with the school, saying national unity outweighed First Amendment protections. The ruling sparked a wave of violence against Jehovah's Witnesses across the country, and fueled criticism the Court had abandoned core constitutional rights.

This week we talk about AI chatbots, virtual avatars, and romance novels.We also discuss Inkitt, Galatea, and LLM grooming.Recommended Book: New Cold Wars by David E. SangerTranscriptThere's evidence that the US Trump administration used AI tools, possibly ChatGPT, possibly another, similar model or models, to generate the numbers they used to justify a recent wave of new tariffs on the country's allies and enemies.It was also recently reported that Democratic mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo used AI-generated text and citations in a plan he released called Addressing New York's Housing Crisis. And this case is a bit more of a slam dunk, as whomever put the plan together for him seems to have just copy-pasted snippets from the ChatGPT interface without changing or checking them—which is increasingly common for all of us, as such interfaces are beginning to replace even search engine results, like those provided by Google.But it's also a practice that's generally frowned upon, as—and this is noted even in the copy provided alongside many such tools and their results—these systems provide a whole lot of flawed, false, incomplete, or otherwise not-advisable-to-use data, in some cases flubbing numbers or introducing bizarre grammatical inaccuracies, but in other cases making up research or scientific papers that don't exist, but presenting them the same as they would a real-deal paper or study. And there's no way to know without actually going and checking what these things serve up, which can, for many people at least, take a long while; so a lot of people don't do this, including many politicians and their administrations, and that results in publishing made-up, baseless, numbers, and in some cases wholesale fabricated claims.This isn't great for many reasons, including that it can reinforce our existing biases. If you want to slap a bunch of tariffs on a bunch of trading partners, you can ask an AI to generated some numbers that justify those high tariffs, and it will do what it can to help; it's the ultimate yes-man, depending on how you word your queries. And it will do this even if your ask is not great or truthful or ideal.These tools can also help users spiral down conspiracy rabbit holes, can cherry-pick real studies to make it seem as if something that isn't true is true, and it can help folks who are writing books or producing podcasts come up with just-so stories that seem to support a particular, preferred narrative, but which actually don't—and which maybe aren't even real or accurate, as presented.What's more, there's also evidence that some nation states, including Russia, are engaging in what's called LLM grooming, which basically means seeding false information to sources they know these models are trained on so that said models will spit out inaccurate information that serves their intended ends.This is similar to flooding social networks with misinformation and bots that seem to be people from the US, or from another country whose elections they hope to influence, that bot apparently a person who supports a particular cause, but in reality that bot is run by someone in Macedonia or within Russia's own borders. Or maybe changing the Wikipedia entry and hoping no one changes it back.Instead of polluting social networks or Wikis with such misinfo, though, LLM grooming might mean churning out websites with high SEO, search engine optimization rankings, which then pushes them to the top of search results, which in turn makes it more likely they'll be scraped and rated highly by AI systems that gather some of their data and understanding of the world, if you want to call it that, from these sources.Over time, this can lead to more AI bots parroting Russia's preferred interpretation, their propaganda, about things like their invasion of Ukraine, and that, in turn, can slowly nudge the public's perception on such matters; maybe someone who asks ChatGPT about Russia's invasion of Ukraine, after hearing someone who supports Russia claiming that it was all Ukraine's fault, and they're told, by ChatGPT, which would seem to be an objective source of such information, being an AI bot, that Ukraine in fact brought it upon themselves, or is in some way actually the aggressor, which would serve Russia's geopolitical purposes. None of which is true, but it starts to seem more true to some people because of that poisoning of the informational well.So there are some issues of large, geopolitical consequence roiling in the AI space right now. But some of the most impactful issues related to this collection of technologies are somewhat smaller in scale, today, at least, but still have the potential to disrupt entire industries as they scale up.And that's what I'd like to talk about today, focusing especially on a few recent stories related to AI and its growing influence in creative spaces.—There's a popular meme that's been shuffling around social media for a year or two, and a version of it, shared by an author named Joanna Maciejewska (machie-YEF-ski) in a post on X, goes like this: “You know what the biggest problem with pushing all-things-AI is? Wrong direction. I want AI to do my laundry and dishes so that I can do art and writing, not for AI to do my art and writing so that I can do my laundry and dishes.”It could be argued, of course, that we already have technologies that do our laundry and dishes, and that AI has the capacity to make both of those machines more efficient and effective, especially in term of helping manage and moderate increasingly renewables-heavy electrical grids, but the general concept here resonates with a lot of people, I think: why are some of the biggest AI companies seemingly dead-set on replacing creatives, who are already often suffering from financial precarity, but who generally enjoy their work, or at least find it satisfying, instead of automating away the drudgery many of us suffer in the work that pays our bills, in our maintenance of our homes, and in how we get around, work on our health, and so on.Why not automate the tedious and painful stuff rather than the pleasurable stuff, basically?I think, looking at the industry more broadly, you can actually see AI creeping up on all these spaces, painful and pleasurable, but generative AI tools, like ChatGPT and its peers, seem to be especially good at generating text and images and such, in part because it's optimized for communication, being a chatbot interface over a collection of more complex tools, and most of our entertainments operate in similar spaces; using words, using images, these are all things that overlap with the attributes that make for a useful and convincing chatbot.The AI tools that produce music from scratch, writing the lyrics and producing the melodies and incorporating different instruments, working in different genres, the whole, soup to nuts, are based on similar principles to AI systems that work with large sets of linguistic training data to produce purely language based, written outputs.Feed an AI system gobs of music, and it can learn to produce music at the prompting of a user, then, and the same seems to be true of other types of content, as well, from images to movies to video games.This newfound capacity to spit out works that, for all their flaws, would have previously requires a whole lot of time and effort to produce, is leading to jubilation in some spaces, but concern and even outright terror in others.I did an episode not long ago on so-called ‘vibe coding,' about people who in some cases can't code at all, but who are producing entire websites and apps and other products just by learning how to interact with these AI tools appropriately. And these vibe coders are having a field day with these tools.The same is increasingly true of people without any music chops who want to make their own songs. Folks with musical backgrounds often get more out of these tools, same as coders tend to get more from vibe coding, in part because they know what to ask for, and in part because they can edit what they get on the other end, making it better and tweaking the output to make it their own.But people without movie-making skills can also type what they want into a box and have these tools spit out a serviceable movie on the other end, and that's leading to a change similar to what happened when less-fiddly guns were introduced to the battlefield: you no longer needed to have super well-trained soldiers to defeat your enemies, you could just hand them a gun and teach them to shoot and reload it, and you'd do pretty well; you could even defeat some of your contemporaries who had much better trained and more experienced soldiers, but who hadn't yet made the jump to gunpowder weapons.There are many aspects to this story, and many gray areas that are not as black and white as, for instance, a non-coder suddenly being able to out-code someone who's worked really hard to become a decent coder, or someone who knows nothing about making music creating bops, with the aide of these tools, that rival those of actual musicians and singers who have worked their whole life to be able to the same.There have been stories about actors selling their likenesses to studios and companies that work with studios, for instance, those likenesses then being used by clients of those companies, often without the actors' permission.For some, this might be a pretty good deal, as that actor is still free to pursue the work they want to do, and their likeness can be used in the background for a fee, some of that fee going to the actor, no additional work necessary. Their likeness becomes an asset that they wouldn't have otherwise had—not to be used and rented out in that capacity, at least—and thus, for some, this might be a welcome development.This has, in some cases though, resulted in situations in which said actor discovers that their likeness is being used to hawk products they would never be involved with, like online scams and bogus health cures. They still receive a payment for that use of their image, but they realize that they have little or no control over how and when and for what purposes it's used.And because of the aforementioned financial precarity that many creatives in particular experience as a result of how their industries work, a lot of people, actors and otherwise, would probably jump at the chance to make some money, even if the terms are abusive and, long-term, not in their best interest.Similar tools, and similar financial arrangements, are being used and made in the publishing world.An author named Manjari Sharma wrote her first book, an enemies-to-lovers style romance, in a series of installments she published on the free fanfic platform Wattpad during the height of the Covid pandemic. She added it to another, similar platform, Inkitt, once it was finished, and it garnered a lot of attention and praise on both.As a result of all that attention, the folks behind Inkitt suggested she move it from their free platform to their premium offering, Galatea, which would allow Sharma to earn a portion of the money gleaned from her work.The platform told her they wanted to turn the book into a series in early 2024, but that she would only have a few weeks to complete the next book, if she accepted their terms. She was busy with work, so she accepted their offer to hire a ghostwriter to produce the sequel, as they told her she'd still receive a cut of the profits, and the fan response to that sequel was…muted. They didn't like it. Said it had a different vibe, wasn't well-written, just wasn't very good. Lacked the magic of the original, basically.She was earning extra money from the sequel, then, but no one really enjoyed it, and she didn't feel great about that. Galatea then told Sharma that they would make a video series based on the books for their new video app, 49 episodes, each a few minutes long, and again, they'd handle everything, she'd just collect royalties.The royalty money she was earning was a lot less than what traditional publishers offer, but it was enough that she was earning more from those royalties than from her actual bank job, and the company, due to the original deal she made when she posted the book to their service, had the right to do basically anything they wanted with it, so she was kind of stuck, either way.So she knew she had to go along with whatever they wanted to do, and was mostly just trying to benefit from that imbalance where possible. What she didn't realize, though, was that the company was using AI tools to, according to the company's CEO, “iterate on the stories,” which basically means using AI to produce sequels and video content for successful, human-written books. As a result of this approach, they have just one head of editorial and five “story intelligence analysts” on staff, alongside some freelancers, handling books and supplementary content written by about 400 authors.As a business model, it's hard to compete with this approach.As a customer, at the moment, at least, with today's tools and our approach to using them, it's often less than ideal. Some AI chatbots are helpful, but many of them just gatekeep so a company can hire fewer customer service humans, saving the business money at the customer's expense. That seems to be the case with this book's sequel, too, and many of the people paying to read these things assumed they were written by humans, only to find, after the fact, that they were very mediocre AI-generated knock-offs.There's a lot of money flooding into this space predicated in part on the promise of being able to replace currently quite expensive people, like those who have to be hired and those who own intellectual property, like the rights to books and the ideas and characters they contain, with near-free versions of the same, the AI doing similar-enough work alongside a human skeleton crew, and that model promises crazy profits by earning the same level of revenue but with dramatically reduced expenses.The degree to which this will actually pan out is still an open question, as, even putting aside the moral and economic quandary of what all these replaced creatives will do, and the legal argument that these AI companies are making right now, that they can just vacuum up all existing content and spit it back out in different arrangements without that being a copyright violation, even setting all of that aside, the quality differential is pretty real, in some spaces right now, and while AI tools do seem to have a lot of promise for all sorts of things, there's also a chance that the eventual costs of operating them and building out the necessary infrastructure will fail to afford those promised financial benefits, at least in the short term.Show Noteshttps://www.theverge.com/news/648036/intouch-ai-phone-calls-parentshttps://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/04/regrets-actors-who-sold-ai-avatars-stuck-in-black-mirror-esque-dystopia/https://archive.ph/gzfVChttps://archive.ph/91bJbhttps://www.cnn.com/2025/03/08/tech/hollywood-celebrity-deepfakes-congress-law/index.htmlhttps://www.npr.org/2024/12/21/nx-s1-5220301/deepfakes-memes-artificial-intelligence-electionshttps://techcrunch.com/2025/04/13/jack-dorsey-and-elon-musk-would-like-to-delete-all-ip-law/https://www.404media.co/this-college-protester-isnt-real-its-an-ai-powered-undercover-bot-for-cops/https://hellgatenyc.com/andrew-cuomo-chatgpt-housing-plan/https://www.theverge.com/news/642620/trump-tariffs-formula-ai-chatgpt-gemini-claude-grokhttps://www.wsj.com/articles/ai-cant-predict-the-impact-of-tariffsbut-it-will-try-e387e40chttps://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2025/04/17/llm-poisoning-grooming-chatbots-russia/ This is a public episode.

For much of their outlaw careers, Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid weren't the inseparable duo that Hollywood made us believe with its 1969 depiction of the pair. But the movie isn't the only reason the two are inextricably linked: The two members of the Wild West crew known as The Wild Bunch were wanted men when they opted in 1901 to disappear together. The official story is that the pair died in a shoot-out with the Bolivian army, but more than a century later, questions remain.

One time our listeners decided to spend the evening at the theatre. It was meant to be a lively event with laughter and plenty of snacks… it turned into a twilight zone-esque nightmare where they got lost in a time warp, the upside down and narrowly found their way back to reality. If that were not enough, a witch cursed Jeanyn's family and attempted to sabotage a familial reconciliation. But that is not all… no, because this is an encounters episode and we would be remiss to not share a haunting encounter that WE, Two Girls One Ghost caused and also posit the question… who is the little girl that joins you as a midnight pisser?  Have ghost stories of your own?
