Batman V Superman: My Review

Many people didn't like the movie mostly because they do not follow DC universe in depth and thus didn't get the references. Followers of DC universe already know the characters very well. That's the reason why the characters weren't introduced in detail as the main story is about Batman & Superman. There would be separate prequels for introducing other characters, like an "Origin" story. Solo movies on Wonder woman, Aquaman, Flash and others would be coming soon.

Unlike reboots of Spiderman, Zack Snyder avoided the origin story as its unnecessary and it would be impossible to introduce every character in this movie. Superman was introduced in Man of Steel, everyone knows Batman, Wonder woman - daughter of Greek God Zeus is over 4000 years old, a follower of DC universe should know that. Her intention in this film is still unclear, may be it would be disclosed in her solo movie which is a prequel. There were many reference from comics/animated universe but they weren't taken as it is. The most important highlight of the movie was Flash sending Batman a message from the future where they already are a team, and tells him to find them in present, suggesting to build the team earlier. Also informs him that if Lois dies, Superman will go rogue.

From the visions of the future we see that Batman owns an army (like from JL alternate history), Superman has its own (like the Justice Lord). There is one more army which possibly belongs to Darkseid (due to the Omega symbol). This army had masks similar to the Talons from the new 52 comics series and wings similar to Darkseid's army.

Mostly, this movie was about a tussle between two superheroes with distinct ideologies and Lex Luthor adding fuel to their hatred turning them hostile towards each other. The only big blunder the filmmaker has done is by revealing most of the action scenes in its trailers. To those who don't follow DC universe in depth, can't help sorry. But the action scenes were good enough.

Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Content Creation & Employment

There are many things Artificial Intelligence can do, but there are some things the AI cannot do, like writing this blog. This year has seen the rise of AI, and since then AI service platforms and content created by these platforms have taken over the internet. Initially, it was believed that like previous industrial revolutions, this new invention will affect the basic entry-level jobs with lower skills, but it directly attacked those jobs that require higher levels of skills. As Artificial Intelligence improves, it will get better and will compete with artists, writers, actors, singers, and musicians, along with other jobs like product delivery, sales and even data collection and data interpretation. But can there be a human civilisation where everything is automated? If everything right from art to programming is going to be done by AI, what kind of jobs would humans do? How will the economic cycle function? This sudden rise of AI is perceived to be a major threat to human re

Indian Festival(s): Diwali

Diwali also known as Dipavali, which is festival of lights. Although the present scenario in cities of modern India (@least in Mumbai) contradicts the meaning of the festival. The festival of lights is celebrated as festival of noise. Fireworks were used as they gave lights, which were followed by bombs & other crackers which gives 2% light, 48% smoke and 50% noise. It seems like the main intention of celebrating a festival is to trouble people around. Many people have asthma problems; many people mostly due to old age have timid ears and can even get a heart attack after listening the kaboom noise of the crackers. Even during marriages and Ganpati visarjan , traffic jam and making loud noise with weird dances on the streets are common. They don't care if an ambulance have to pass by or if there is hospital in that area. Indian festivals have now became the best examples of mockery. Festivals are celebrated by troubling other people. Not ju

How Changing Media Shaped History and Societies

We are in the middle of a new AI revolution that is going to change media forever. This could give a push to the saturating and plateaued social media. It could also make it even more difficult to reach a wider audience due to higher competition. To contemplate and guess what may happen, we must understand how changing media changed societies and civilizations. It does three things – unites a type of people, divides or polarizes a group, democratizes a previous media system, and makes content more local, but reduces wider reach. Creation of Insiders, but also Outsiders Invention of Languages When early humans invented languages, they became more organized and developed tribes and societies. But this also clearly defined the concept of an ‘insider’ and ‘outsider’. When they came in contact with tribes which didn’t speak their languages, the idea of insider and outsider became clearer. This also led to clashes and cultural feuds. Invention of Writing Systems When language
