In a remarkable crossover between film and technology, iconic director James Cameron has joined the board of Stability AI, the company behind the cutting-edge generative AI model Stable Diffusion.

EA Unveils AI-Powered ‘Text to Game’ Concept
Electronic Arts (EA) showcased a groundbreaking "text to game" concept, allowing players to create and customize games simply by using natural language.
