Theres time for one more Armageddon for Amazons Good Omens but not much. Amazon Prime Video announced that Good Omens would return for one final season last year, but TVLine reports its only going to have one 90-minute episode that will begin filming in Scotland soon. Amazon originally confirmed that author Neil Gaiman, who co-wrote the book upon which Good Omens is based with Discworld creator Terry Pratchett, will continue through the final season as the shows executive producer, writer and showrunner. TVLine says Gaiman contributed to the episodes writing, but he will not work on the production. Gaiman has stepped out of the spotlight and away from several projects based on his works since his sexual assault allegations surfaced in July. The Tortoise Media podcast Master: The Allegations Against Neil Gaiman outlined the authors alleged behavior with accounts from four women, one of whom signed a non-disclosure agreement. A fifth woman later stepped forward with similar accusations on the podcast. Gaiman denied the allegations and said he was disturbed by them, according to Rolling Stone. The allegations paused pre-production for Good Omens third season. Gaiman also offered to step away from the show in September, according to Deadline. Good Omens stars Michael Sheen as the angelic, fussy angel Aziraphale and David Tennant as the free-wheeling demon Crowley who formed an unlikely alliance to prevent the coming of the Antichrist and the fall of humankind. The dramatic comedy started as a limited series on Amazons streaming network in 2019 but the shows popularity prompted a second season in 2020 with an expanded cast including Jon Hamm as the archangel Gabriel.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/entertainment/streaming/good-omens-final-season-will-have-only-one-episode-212956591.html?src=rss

The White House issued its first national security memorandum outlining the use of artificial intelligence for the military and intelligence agencies. The White House also shared a shortened copy of the memo with the public. The new memo sets up guidelines for military and intelligence agencies for using AI in its day-to-day operations. The memo sets a series of deadlines for agencies to study the applications and regulations of AI tools, most of which will lapse following President Bidens term. The memo also aims to limit the most dystopian possibilities, including the development of autonomous weapons, according to the New York Times. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan announced the new directive today at the National Defense University as part of a talk on AIs presence in government operations. Sullivan has been one of the Presidents most vocal proponents for examining the benefits and risks of AI technology. He also raised concerns about Chinas use of AI to control its population and spread misinformation and how the memo can spark conversations with other countries grappling with implementing its own AI strategies. The memorandum establishes some hard edges for AI usage especially when it comes to weapons systems. The memo states that AI can never be used as a decision maker for launching nuclear weapons or assigning asylum status to immigrants coming to the US. It also prohibits AI from tracking anyone based on their race or religion or determining if a suspect is a known terrorist without human intervention. The memo also lays out protections for private-sector AI advance as national assets that need to be protectedfrom spying or theft by foreign adversaries, according to the Times. The memorandum orders intelligence agencies to help private companies working on AI models secure their work and provide updated intelligence reports to project their AI assets.This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/ai/president-biden-sets-up-new-ai-guardrails-for-military-intelligence-agencies-201752211.html?src=rss
