888-horsepower hybrid Ferrari presented: it will be possible to buy it for cryptocurrency

Published

The Ferrari 296 GTB is Ferrari’s first production car with a V6 engine, as well as the first Ferrari hybrid supercar with a strictly rear-wheel drive transmission. German tuning studio DMC has unveiled a modified Ferrari 296 GTB that received a Squalo tuning package.

The DMC Ferrari 296 GTB Squalo is powered by a 3.0-liter twin-turbocharged V6 engine that produces 654 hp. and 740 Nm of torque. With a pair of turbochargers spinning at up to 180,000 rpm, the Ferrari 296 GTB engine has the highest power density in a production supercar. The engine spins up to 8500 rpm.

The car is equipped with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, as well as an electric motor that boosts power output to 818 hp. But DMC felt that this was not enough, so the specialists began to work with a powerful V6 gasoline engine further. As a result, it was possible to increase its power by another 69 hp.

The tuned DMC Ferrari 296 GTB Squalo received 888 hp, which is enough to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 2.8 seconds. That’s 0.1 faster than a factory car can,

In addition, the Squalo tuning package (Italian for “shark”) includes an upgraded body kit with improved aerodynamic properties. It received a redesigned front spoiler, a rear diffuser and a new rear wing.

Now for game designers ChatGPT in the Unity editor will

A user named keijiro introduced a very interesting concept – the ChatGPT deep learning model in the Unity editor for creating games. With this system, the generation of game scenes and environments has become easier, since you only need to set a text query. The project is called AICommand.

At the same time, the author honestly admits that this is only a concept, not a finished product, the whole system does not always correctly understand requests, which will lead to errors in the game. However, in general, this is a rather curious tool that can potentially improve the work of game designers.

The author notes that Unity version 2022.2 or newer is required to work, no other requirements are given. The project itself is available on GitHub.

Note that earlier another generative one has already been able to replace musicians, creating music based on images.

Five Planets Alignment 2023 Jupiter Mercury Uranus Mars and Venus

At the end of this month, the five planets of the solar system, Jupiter, Mercury, Uranus, Mars and Venus, will be visible from Earth as they line up in a small patch of sky shortly after sunset. This will happen on March 28th.

All 5 planets will be visible in the sky quite well. The brightest planets will be Mercury and Jupiter, which will be visible above the horizon, as well as Venus, which will be slightly higher. Mars will be less visible, and in order to see Uranus, you will need binoculars.

Two or three planets located next to each other in the sky can be observed quite often, and a similar parade occurs less often (it was in 2022, 2020 and 2016).

Last year, northern hemisphere stargazers had the amazing opportunity to observe Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn at the same time. Last year, residents of the northern hemisphere of the Earth could watch the alignment of Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn.

Several more similar events are expected in 2023. So, in April it will be possible for Mercury, Uranus, Venus and Mars to line up next to each other. Mars, Venus, Uranus and Mercury are expected to align in the same month.

Midjourney smells of racism: the neural network created a provocative image

Midjourney smells of racism the neural network created a provocative

We have repeatedly written about how the Midjourney neural network has progressed over the past year. The quality of the generated images has reached a whole new level. Often, Midjourney’s work can be confused with photographs.

However, this note is about something else: the Midjourney neural network was asked to generate an image for the query “White man robbing store”, clearly implying that we are talking about a robber with a light skin color.

Midjourney smells of racism: the neural network created a provocative image

What Midjourney was “thinking” about, one can only guess. It is unlikely that the neural network believes that whites have never robbed stores. However, in the end, Midjourney issued an image of a black man in a white tracksuit and a white balaclava.

So far, no accusations of racism have been filed against the developers of Midjourney. In fairness, it is worth adding that, at the request of iXBT.com, the neural network produced the following pictures:
