Have you watched i-Robot or Resident Evil, if yes, then you would have an inkling of what Artificial Intelligence is about, but what you might not now is that Facebook is using AI to govern behaviour and yours too.  The theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence, such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision-making, and translation between languages is called Artificial intelligence(AI). In computer science, artificial intelligence, sometimes called machine intelligence, is intelligence demonstrated by machines, in contrast to the natural intelligence displayed by

It came as a shock to most of the fans of MGM the movie production giant, when MGM updated their Twitter page about the postponement of their darling production 007 Series 'No Time To Die'. MGM just pulled the plug on the new Bond movie, 'No Time to Die,' because of coronavirus. So why are they moving forward with this? MGM, Universal and Bond producers, Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, announced today that after careful consideration and thorough evaluation of the global theatrical marketplace, the release of NO TIME TO DIE will be postponed until November 2020.

THE GOOD SOLDIER? 11:13 AM PT  -- 3/15 -- According to  Deadline , MGM is putting 'Samaritan' production on a minimum 2 week hiatus out of precaution surrounding the coronavirs. Apparently, Saturday's shoot was the final day of filming before the break, and it was just for a pick-up shot. Sylvester Stallone's new movie is doing what a lot of other productions and production companies have halted almost immediately ... continuing to film amid the coronavirus. The movie star was down in Atlanta Saturday, where he was filming on set for his upcoming sci-fi flick, 'Samaritan,' in full costume and makeup. What's crazy about that ... it appears COVID-19 was on the brain of several others working as well, based on

Nor Wanting, Nor Wasting “When I fed the 5,000 with five loaves of bread, how many baskets of leftovers did you pick up afterward?" "Twelve," they said. Mark 8:19 NLT Here’s a true story, as told me by a second hand witness. Two Nigerians ordered oversized plates of food they didn’t need from an expensive restaurant somewhere in Germany. The waiters thought this was unusual amounts of food but what the heck, if they were this hungry. Surprises awaited them. Moments later, maybe to impress the white man, the men took just a few nibbles from their

One of the greatest challenges of our time is reading deficiency. Students don't read any more and this has greatly affected their writing skills too.

Ehinare who was reassuring foreign diplomats of the measures put in place by the Federal government to contain the spread of the virus, said there was no immediate reason for now to impose travel ban. This is indeed laughable to say the least, if the  Italian medical chief, Roberto Stella dies from coronavirus, Spain's Equality Minister tests positive to coronavirus and President Trump suspends all flight from Europe to the United States, and Nigeria's Minister of Health is saying no reason for travel ban on inbound flight from countries with Coronavirus cases,

The internet was agog when a female  pastor identified simply as Mrs Veronica and happens to be the founder of Life of Faith and Prosperity Ministry based in Asaba, Delta State, claimed that "God gave her an anointed Vagina to heal men with infertility". Initially, I thought is was a hoax or something to remove people's mind from the dreaded Coronavirus, but no it wasn't a hoax. That got me thinking, would any lady from another faith try this? Is she okay? Is she suffering from psychosis? Maybe she has been starved of intercourse and this is her way of dealing with the situation,

What is the value of basketball without the fans, their cheers and boos, their chanting and humming, these are the trills of basketball. So if Coronavirus would hinder the fans having a fun-time watching their favourite player live on the pitch then, I guess it ain't worth it playing indoors. B-ball legend, LeBron James, has hit back at NBA after concerns were raised about the fatal coronavirus spreading over the world.  On Friday, NBA sent a notice to each of the 30 groups about the need to plan for perhaps

US President, Donald Trump took to his Twitter handle on Wednesday evening to mock fellow billionaire Mike Bloomberg, after the Bloomberg Television founder announced he will be quitting the US Presidential race after spending a whooping $500m on his campain and advertising. Mike Bloomberg, who spent funds reportedly in excess of half a billion dollars to self-fund his 2020 presidential run, unlike other candidates who sourced for funding from donors and party faithfuls, announced Wednesday that he is suspending his campaign after performing

Hello there… I trust you had a blissful day and a wonderful week. Today I want to share with you on the topic; FOCUS “A double minded man is unstable in all his ways” (James 1:8). First of all, what is Focus? It is the the ability to concentrate your interest or activity on a particular goal without giving in to distractions. In our world today, there are so many things that are calling for our attention, and this might be good things but may not be the right thing for us to be doing at the moment. This is where the power of focus is highly essential. The ability to make your goals create a blind

Yes, OPRAH WINFREY actually did fall on stage while on her 2020 vision tour which is still ongoing. It was a Saturday, February 29th precisely while on stage at THE FORUM in LOS ANGELES talking about WELLNESS and BALANCE all of a sudden the 66 years old business mogul and world inspiring TV show host teetered on her heels and came right down to the ground.

The greatest Nigerian rapper of all time in my opinion is  Michael Ugochukwu Stephens, known professionally as "Ruggedman", is a Nigerian rapper from Ohafia, Abia State. Man you just have to love the guy, I mean his style of rapping was unique compared to the guys who came before and after him. Just imagine using "pidgin" with western accent, that is how his song sounded then and I believed that he came to setup the Nigerian rap industry on a better course and development through his unique style. Then, he mixed indigenous Yoruba deep idiomatic songs with his rap and set the bar higher
