If you grew up as an NBA fan in the 90s like me, this is like putting on your favorite old pair of jeans. It just feels right.

In 2014, I shot a short film as a DP. This week, I revisited it with generative AI — using Martini inside Premiere Pro. Watch how I re-imagined the same scene with AI. Comment below for access to the plugin.

BREAKING: @FanDuel, @DraftKings and @ESPNBET are competing for sponsorship rights of the FBI investigation into an illegal NBA sports betting ring.
an FBI official says the alleged NBA gambling ring involves the "Toronto Rangers" (not a real team), which doesn't exactly inspire confidence in the quality of their investigation

Portland Trail Blazers head coach Chauncey Billups has been charged in an illegal poker operation tied to the Mafia, law enforcement sources have told @ABC News. Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier was arrested in a separate but related betting case. More: https://t.co/BpAbVBgVDI

“For many Americans, our study shows that the desirability of immigration depends not just on cultural or economic factors, but also whether voters believe migrants have the same partisan preferences that that they do,” says Prof. @daniel_mcdowell

Wow. This is huge! “Skinny” Fed master accounts for, say, stablecoins is a game changer.
🚨BIG NEWS out of the @federalreserve Payments Innovation Conference this morning. Governor Chris Waller announced the central bank is proposing a new type of limited-access master account (or what he calls a “skinny master account”) for ALL legally eligible institutions to

I've been telling my kids since day 1 there's no way @MLB makes any announcement during the season. They will bury it with a press release a couple of weeks after the postseason has ended and pretend like there's nothing to see here.
Enough is enough, @MLB owes the Guardians a resolution on the Luis Ortiz and Emmanuel Clase investigation https://t.co/hiYynwjrse

The claim that central banks started hoarding gold only after Russian assets were blocked (yellow line) is often made, but inaccurate. The big buyers were active for years before 2022. CBs have been net buyers for almost two decades. This is a long-term development.

Time to update our priors on treasury holdings!
In a new note, we demonstrate that the massive buildup in hedge fund Treasury positions in the past decade has had substantial effects on the national accounts data. This is due to underreporting to TIC of Cayman Islands Treasury holdings associated with these hedge funds.

The US Treasury & the Argentine $20 bn "swap". If the Administration is bent on proceeding, it should at least mitigate risks & do so carefully and sensibly.👇 https://t.co/SJqYyCo5H7

I think it's weird there are now so many documentaries about athletes/teams that are still playing It was once the case that some historical distance was needed before something like this was produced I basically see these things as commercials, rather than documentaries
