Paul McCartney is an English singer, songwriter and musician who gained worldwide fame with The Beatles, a rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960. He has collaborated with countless artists over his 60-year career, from Rihanna to Michael Jackson. Now, the former Beatle has teamed up with artificial intelligence (AI). In a recent interview, the 80-year-old revealed that AI has made it possible to release one “last Beatles record.”
McCartney said that during the creation of the docuseries “The Beatles: Get Back”, produced in 2021 by Peter Jackson, they found an old demo tape that John Lennon had recorded. Through the use of artificial intelligence, they were able to start the process of taking the decades-old recording and turning it into something usable.
“Peter Jackson was able to extricate John’s voice from an old cassette tape,” McCartney said. “He could tell the machine ‘That’s the voice. This is the guitar. Lose the guitar.’ We were able to take John’s voice and get it pure through this AI,” McCartney continued. “Then we could mix the record as you would normally do.”
Though McCartney called recent uses of AI in music “kind of scary” — in April, a rap song featuring AI-generated voices mimicking Drake and The Weeknd was yanked from streaming services — the “Let It Be” singer admitted that the technology is “exciting, because it’s the future. There’s a good side to it, and then a scary side. And we’ll just have to see where that leads,” he said.

Brazil: Rowers give up Olympic dream to help flood victims
Brazilian rowers Evaldo Mathias Becker and Piedro Tuchtenhagen gave up on their Olympic dreams to stay in Rio Grande do Sul, after heavy rains devastated the state.
The athletes, who compete together in the lightweight category, were hoping to take part in the upcoming qualifying phase for the Olympics in Switzerland later this month. The category has been excluded from the 2028 Olympic Games, making Paris 2024 their last chance at the medal.
They have joined other residents and people from across Brazil who have been distributing aid and using boats to save stranded neighbours and pets.
Over the weekend, river levels were on the rise again in the flood-stricken state, causing fresh flooding.
More than half a million people have been displaced from their homes and 147 are confirmed to have died in the floods.
Rescue workers continue to search for people who are missing.
Other Brazilian athletes have also stepped in to help - swimmer Viviane Jungblut, who had already qualified for the Olympic open water race, dropped out to help with rescue operations. World and Olympic surfing champion Italo Ferreira, and the coach of the Brazilian Olympic men's judo team, Antonio Carlos Kiko Pereira, also joined in to help.

The spread of fake news can have both personal and academic consequences. In a perfect world everything reported would be based only on facts and you would be able to trust that the media you consume is reliable. But unfortunately that’s not the case. You should learn to spot false information because fake news can:
1. Call into question the credibility of your sources. As a student you are expected to find, evaluate, and reference trustworthy information sources in a variety of formats. If you include fake news as evidence for your arguments or as part of your research it may raise doubts about the integrity of the sources you use as a whole and your ability to identify quality information. Maintain the respect of your professors, peers, friends, and family by citing only true, credible news and information sources.
2. Provide you with false, confusing, or dishonest information used to make a decision or take action. It can be dangerous to do something without having all the facts, but it can be just as detrimental to do so based on inaccurate information. Whether it’s political, medical, academic, or personal, you need to be able to recognize when the information you are taking in can be trusted to help you make an intelligent, fact-based choice.
