The developer of recently-announced virtual pet simulator game Catly has responded to allegations that the game's trailer and marketing was produced using generative AI, saying that no such technology was used in its announcement at The Game Awards, nor in the game itself. In a statement shared with IGN, a PR representative authorized to speak on behalf of developer SuperAuthenti said that generative AI was not used to produce the trailer, nor the game. Furthermore, the representative said the developer was "very surprised by such speculations," adding that "We do not think there are any existing AI tools that can produce a video like that. Industry experts have echoed this opinion." The PR representative also showed IGN a version of the trailer from The Game Awards that showed in-progress shots interspersed alongside the final version, which did seem to confirm the lack of AI use in the actual trailer production. The spokesperson confirmed to IGN that Catly is being made in Unreal Engine 5, and said the developer uses "various software" to produce hyperrealistic fur and hair. Assertions that Catly was using generative AI technology began to circulate almost immediately after its trailer debuted at The Game Awards last week. The trailer itself featured hyperrealistic cats with brightly colored fur and features bounding around a fantasy playspace and interacting with a human wearing various detailed, high fashion outfits. The art style present was flagged by many critics as reminiscent of the hyperrealistic style often produced by generative AI. That said, Catly's statement is consistent with the current reality that game trailers of this quality are not within the reach of current generative AI technology without significant, obvious artifacting and other issues. However, others pointed out that while the trailer may be legit, the other aspects of Catly's promotion are still giving some off vibes. For instance, the game's Steam description awkwardly reads, "A Cat Open World, with Beautiful Cats. Hyperrealism, Actions, Cuddle, Speed, Islands, Fashion, Dreams, Snow, Robots, Plants -- all with and via Cats." And a few of the game's promotional art pieces had odd details similar to AI artifacting, such as the odd paws and nose of this cat: And the text on the wall inside the right-hand side of the building in this image: Others unearthed more images from the official Catly website that appear to raise even more questions about their veracity. Notably, the Catly website was down as recently as Friday, and remained offline over the weekend through today when we reached out to SuperAuthenti to ask about it. The website has since been reinstated, but a number of the old images have been removed. While SuperAuthenti confirmed to me that it did not use generative AI in either the trailer or the game itself, it did not respond to my question about its promotional images on Steam or on its website. As for web3, speculation of the game's ties to the technology surfaced as individuals unearthed the studio co-founder, Kevin Yeung's, ties to other blockchain games . Additionally, the game's Steam page features a glowing quote from League of Legends and Arcane producer Thomas Vu, who himself is a prominent web3 investor. However, it also contained a quote from Hearthstone and Marvel Snap creator Ben Brode, who has taken to Bluesky to say that he's heard nothing about either AI generation or web3 involved in Catly, and that his interest is sincere. "I saw 20 [minutes] or so of gameplay footage a few months back and thought it looked cool so they asked me for a quote," he wrote . For now, it does seem that SuperAuthenti is telling the truth about the Catly trailer at The Game Awards, though the question of whether or not, or how much, generative AI has been used in Catly's overall development and promotion remains to be seen. Generative AI is becoming an increasingly popular tool for game companies, too. Call of Duty reportedly sold an "AI-generated cosmetic" for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 in late 2023, and fans accused Activision of using generative AI again for a loading screen this year . EA said in September that AI was "the very core" of its business . Unfortunately, as the technology becomes both more prevalent and more complex, it seems likely it will become increasingly difficult to tell the difference between AI-generated and human-crafted work. In Catly's case, we'll have to wait for 2025 to find out more about what exactly is behind those hauntingly rainbow cat eyes from the trailer. Rebekah Valentine is a senior reporter for IGN.

No crazy buzzer-beater. No last-minute miracle. After so much heartache over so many years, UCLA finally shook off its Gonzaga jinx under coach Mick Cronin on Saturday afternoon at Intuit Dome. It looked like the Bruins might be in store for more misfortune when Sebastian Mack fouled Gonzaga’s Ryan Nembhard on a driving layup with 8.1 seconds left, sending Nembhard to the line for the free throw that could tie the score. But the basketball gods finally smiled upon the Bruins. Nembhard missed the free throw and UCLA’s Skyy Clark chased down the rebound before getting fouled. He made both free throws to give the No. 22 Bruins a breathless 65-62 victory over the No. 14 Bulldogs. It was the first victory over Gonzaga for Cronin at UCLA after having dropped his first four meetings, including a pair of heartbreakers on game-winning shots in the NCAA tournament. A heavily pro-Bruins crowd cheered the team on its way off the court after it shook off its 16-point collapse against North Carolina from last weekend. Forward Eric Dailey Jr. scored 18 points to lead four players in double figures for the Bruins (11-2), who made 12 of 24 three-pointers. Gonzaga (9-4) had multiple chances to forge another late win. Bulldogs guard Dusty Stromer rose for a three-pointer that could have given his team the lead with 17 seconds left, but the shot was off the mark and Clark grabbed the rebound before getting fouled. Clark got both of his free throws to roll in, providing the Bruins with a 63-62 lead. UCLA was the team that needed a little luck this time. Mack redeemed himself — and gave the Bruins a 61-60 advantage with 33 seconds left — when he made a floater as he was fouled. He sank the free throw after having previously missed two on his team’s previous possession. Gonzaga forward Graham Ike was a gamelong problem for the Bruins, scoring in a variety of ways around the basket while finishing with 24 points on 11-for-16 shooting. Meanwhile, the Bulldogs unleashed the sort of harassing defense normally associated with the Bruins, making every UCLA possession a slog. With point guard Dylan Andrews’ slump deepening, the Bruins often struggled to produce good shots — or, in a few cases, any shot while committing a shot-clock violation. Andrews was benched down the stretch in favor of Mack, who made the play his team needed. The halftime score — UCLA 27, Gonzaga 25 — looked like a misprint given the Bruins shot only 29% and committed nine turnovers. The advantage came thanks mostly to UCLA making five of 12 three-pointers (compared to Gonzaga’s two of 11), forcing the Bulldogs into 11 turnovers and grabbing two more rebounds than their counterparts. The Bruins looked like they were headed to a much larger cushion after Clark used a crossover move to free himself for a jumper that capped an 11-0 run for his team, giving UCLA a 24-13 lead. Tensions momentarily rose late in the first half when Gonzaga guard Khalif Battle was assessed a flagrant-2 foul and ejected for clobbering Dailey, the contact prompting Cronin to shed his suit jacket before conversing with officials about the play. The loss of their third-leading scorer seemed to galvanize the Bulldogs the rest of the first half. They went on to hold UCLA scoreless for more than four minutes while rolling off a 9-0 push that wiped out most of the Bruins’ big lead. UCLA played without center William Kyle III, who was sidelined by an unspecified medical issue, according to a team spokesperson.President of Nigerian Economic Society (NES) president, Professor Adeola Adenikinju, Wednesday tasked the federal government to stop consulting foreign experts, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the World Bank alone on policies without getting inputs from Nigerian experts and economic associations. Professor Adenikinju stated this at the just concluded third annual hybrid NAMM international conference themed “Macro-economic Modeling and Data Science for Socio-Economic Development’’ held at the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, Nigeria. The NES president pointed out that the time has come for the federal government to consult Nigerian experts, not just relying on foreign institutions alone. ”Economic policies have become too sophisticated, that you cannot make them on the basis of intuitions or without proper evidence-based framework. So, you need to have a model that will help you to put all of that analysis in a framework. ”It is very important that the government also consult local experts as they consult foreign partners instead of just relying on the IMF and the World Bank to resolve some of these issues. When they go to the IMF, the World Bank, India or some of these other countries, their local experts will bring their models. So, models will work with models. ”The government should not just listen to foreign speakers, and foreign experts, but get our own local experts to also be there at the table.” Speaking, a former director-general of the Nigerian Institute of Social and Economic Research [NISER], and now of African Centre for Shared Development Capacity Building (ACSDCB), Ibadan, Prof. Olu Ajakaiye, said the government needed to do more in terms of using models in decision-making and involvement of local macroeconomic modelers. ”The federal government is listening to advice from the the bank, and other development partners and organisations. But those suggestions are coming from their models, the understanding of the workings of the Nigerian economy may not be exactly what is in those models. “It is important that before the government accepts the suggestions, it should send the suggestions back to their peers here for reviews and reconciliation. It is in that meeting with experts, and their colleagues from Nigeria that they will then be able to open up their models and reveal their assumptions,” he said.

(OTC Markets: ASPU) (“AGI” or the "Company"), an education technology holding company, today announced financial results for its second quarter fiscal year 2025 ended October 31, 2024. Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2025 Summary Results _______________________ 1 GAAP gross profit calculation includes marketing and promotional costs, instructional costs and services, and amortization expense of $0.5 million and $0.5 million, and $0.9 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended October 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. 2 Net income (loss) in fiscal Q2 2025 and year-to-date fiscal 2025 includes a noncash impairment charge of $(4.9) million. Additionally, fiscal Q2 2025 and year-to-date fiscal 2025 contain a non-cash gain of $1.1 million and $1.9 million, respectively, related to the change in the fair value of put warrant liability. See further explanation on page 2. 3 Non-GAAP financial measures. See reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures under “Non-GAAP – Financial Measures” starting on page 5. “We made significant strides toward stabilizing our revenue in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 while achieving positive cash flow through disciplined cost management,” said Michael Mathews, Chairman and CEO of AGI. “Despite maintaining a disciplined marketing spend, we achieved notable improvements in our financial performance, particularly gross margin. Our gross margin expanded primarily due to the lower instructional costs from completing the AU Pre-licensure BSN program teach-out and increased efficiencies in USU’s instructional operations. Additionally, restructuring efforts reduced general and administrative expenses by 14% year-over-year. While our net loss was impacted by a one-time, noncash leasehold impairment charge, the lower instructional costs and expense reduction initiatives in the second quarter collectively drove a 42% year-over-year improvement in Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter and delivered modest year-to-date positive cash from operations.” Mr. Mathews concluded, “As of the filing of our quarterly report for the first quarter fiscal year 2025 with OTC Market, AGI is now fully compliant with the QB listing requirements. We have recently begun the process to resume trading on the OTCQB.” Fiscal Q2 2025 Financial and Operational Results (compared to Fiscal Q2 2024) Revenue decreased by 17% to $11.5 million compared to $13.8 million. The following table presents the Company’s revenue, both per-subsidiary and total: Aspen University's (“AU”) revenue decline of $2.5 million, or 35%, reflects the completion of the teach-out of the pre-licensure program and lower post-licensure enrollments in prior quarters as a result of the decrease in marketing spend initiated in late Fiscal Q1 2023. The active student body at AU decreased by 33% year-over-year to 3,827 at October 31, 2024 from 5,679 at October 31, 2023. United States University (“USU”) revenue was up 2% compared to the prior period. MSN-FNP program enrollments decreased in the quarter due to lower marketing spend initiated in late Fiscal Q1 2023. Lower enrollments were offset by higher revenue per student driven by more students entering their second year of the MSN-FNP program, which includes clinical rotations, and by tuition increases. The active student body at USU decreased by 6% to 2,560 at October 31, 2024 from 2,733 at October 31, 2023. GAAP gross profit decreased 7% to $8.1 million compared to $8.7 million primarily due to the overall student body decrease of 24%. Gross margin was 71% compared to 63%. AU's gross margin was 67% versus 61%, and USU's gross margin was 74% versus 67%. The increase in gross margin is the result of lower instructional costs from completing the AU Pre-licensure BSN program teach-out, increased efficiencies in USU’s instructional operations and lower marketing spend. AU instructional costs and services represented 26% of AU revenue, and USU instructional costs and services represented 23% of USU revenue. AU marketing and promotional costs represented 1% of AU revenue, and USU marketing and promotional costs represented 1% of USU revenue. In Fiscal Q2 2025 and year-to-date Fiscal 2025, our bottom line was materially impacted by a $4.9 million non-cash right-of-use assets and tenant leasehold improvements impairment charge. The charge is the result of the fact that AU is no longer able to utilize space for BSN Pre-licensure operations due to the completion of the teach-out. The charge represents the entirety of the remaining impairment exposure due to the teach-out. The impact of the charge to our operating expenses, net loss and EBITDA is presented in the following table: _____________________ NM – Not meaningful The following tables present the Company’s net income (loss), both per subsidiary and total: The following tables present the Company’s Non-GAAP Financial Measures, both per subsidiary and total. See reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures under “Non-GAAP – Financial Measures” starting on page 5. Adjusted EBITDA improved by $0.5 million due to the reduction in instructional costs and services related to the teach-out of the pre-licensure program, increased instructional efficiencies at USU and a decrease in general and administrative costs attributed to our restructurings. Operating Metrics New Student Enrollments Total enrollments for AGI decreased 30% from Fiscal Q2 2024 but increased 15% sequentially, despite the reduction in internet advertising spend across all programs to maintenance levels. The sequential increase in enrollments reflected an unusually strong month of August as prospective students enrolled prior to an annual tuition increase which took effect in September 2024. New student enrollments at AU decreased 37% year-over-year and at USU decreased 19% year-over-year. The new student enrollment decrease year-over-year was primarily impacted by our reduction in marketing spend. We anticipate the resumption of marketing spend in late Fiscal 2025 at a level necessary to provide enrollments needed to grow the student body and allow for the generation of positive operating cash flow. New student enrollments for the past five quarters are shown below: Total Active Student Body AGI’s active degree-seeking student body, including AU and USU, declined 24% year-over-year to 6,387 at October 31, 2024 from 8,412 at October 31, 2023. AU's total active student body decreased by 33% year-over-year to 3,827 at October 31, 2024 from 5,679 at October 31, 2023. On a year-over-year basis, USU's total active student body decreased by 6% to 2,560 at October 31, 2024 from 2,733 at October 31, 2023. Total active student body for the past five quarters is shown below: Nursing Students Nursing student body for the past five quarters is shown below . Liquidity The Fiscal Q2 2025 ending unrestricted cash balance was $0.8 million. The following three factors will help us continue to stabilize operating cash flow in the second half of Fiscal 2025. First, effective August 16, 2024, AU transitioned from the Heightened Cash Monitoring 2 (HCM2) to the Heightened Cash Monitoring 1 (HCM1) method of receiving student financial aid payments from the U.S Department of Education. This transition allows AU to disburse student financial aid using institutional funds and immediately draw down reimbursement by submitting disbursement records, eliminating payment delays and resulting in more consistent unrestricted cash balances. Second, we renegotiated the 15% Senior Secured Debentures in November 2024, reducing ongoing principal payments and changing the timing of principal payments from monthly to quarterly. Finally, the Company initiated a fourth restructuring late in the fourth quarter of calendar 2024, projected to reduce annual operating expenses by over $1.5 million. Cost reductions associated with the four restructuring plans and other corporate cost reductions were implemented to ensure that the company will have sufficient cash to meet its working capital needs for the next 12 months. Non-GAAP – Financial Measures This press release includes both financial measures in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP, as well as non-GAAP financial measures. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s performance, financial position or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally included or excluded in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplemental to, and should not be considered as alternatives to net income (loss), operating income (loss), and cash flow from operating activities, liquidity or any other financial measures. They may not be indicative of the historical operating results of AGI nor are they intended to be predictive of potential future results. Investors should not consider non-GAAP financial measures in isolation or as substitutes for performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. Our management uses and relies on EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin, which are non-GAAP financial measures. We believe that management, analysts, and shareholders benefit from referring to the following non-GAAP financial measures to evaluate and assess our core operating results from period-to-period after removing the impact of items that affect comparability. Our management recognizes that the non-GAAP financial measures have inherent limitations because of the excluded items described below. We have included a reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. We believe that providing the non-GAAP financial measures, together with the reconciliation to GAAP, helps investors make comparisons between AGI and other companies. In making any comparisons to other companies, investors need to be aware that companies use different non-GAAP measures to evaluate their financial performance. Investors should pay close attention to the specific definition being used and to the reconciliation between such measure and the corresponding GAAP measure provided by each. AGI defines Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA excluding: (1) bad debt expense; (2) stock-based compensation; (3) severance; (4) impairments of right-of-use assets and tenant leasehold improvements and (5) non-recurring (income) charges. The following table presents a reconciliation of net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and of net income (loss) margin to the Adjusted EBITDA margin: The following tables present a reconciliation of Net income (loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and of Net income (loss) margin to the Adjusted EBITDA margin by business unit: ___________________ NM – Not meaningful Forward-Looking Statements This press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 including the impact of our operating and debt restructurings, results of our resumption of marketing spend, and our liquidity.

Joe Buccino joins ‘Fox News Live’ to discuss U.S. aid to Ukraine and ceasefire talks in the Middle East. President Biden still regrets dropping out of the 2024 presidential race last summer after mounting pressure from Democrats to step aside, according to a report. The president recently told people that he still believes he could have beaten Trump in the November election, despite his rough debate performance in June and his low approval numbers that forced him to leave the race, according to the Washington Post, citing people familiar with the conversations. Following the June 27 debate, more and more Democrats began to call for him to drop out every day, so another person could run in his place. The president also saw much of his funding dry up last summer as donors began to doubt his chances of beating Trump.

(Saul Loeb/AFP via Getty Images) Even when he dropped out, Biden still believed he could beat Trump – whom he defeated for his first term in 2020, according to the New York Times in September. Rep. James Clyburn, D-S.C., may disagree. Clyburn, who met with Biden earlier this year, told the Post that he had told the president, "Your style does not lend itself well to the environment we’re currently in," while speaking of style versus substance. Biden national security advisor Jake Sullivan told the Post: "How to govern at this moment to set the U.S. up for long-term success has one answer, and how to govern to deal with midterm and presidential elections in the very short-term might have a different answer. The president went with doing the things that really put America in a strong position." Biden has been careful not to blame Harris while insisting to aides that he could have won. (AP Photo/Susan Walsh) Among acknowledgments of other mistakes – including his debate performance – Biden has also said that he regrets picking Merrick Garland as attorney general, the Post reported. CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP Convinced to do so by aides who said that Garland would be a consensus pick, Biden has privately said that he feels Garland moved too slowly on prosecuting Trump, while also claiming his son Hunter had been prosecuted too aggressively.

JACKSONVILLE, Ala. — The dominoes did not fall Sam Houston’s way in a 21-11 loss to Jax State at AmFirst Stadium on Saturday afternoon. The loss puts a damper on the Bearkats’ chances of making the Conference USA title game as they fell to 8-3 overall and 5-2 in league play with one game left in the regular season. With the win and a loss later in the day by WKU at Liberty, the Gamecocks remain in sole possession of first place in the league and will host the title game on December 6. The Kats, meanwhile, still have their sights set on a return trip to JSU, but will need to defeat Liberty on Nov. 29 at Bowers Stadium and have Jax State take down WKU next week in the regular-season finale. Jax State set the tone early, taking the opening kickoff and marching down the field for a quick 7-0 lead on a scoring run by quarterback Tyler Huff, who rushed for 177 yards and three touchdowns on the day. Meanwhile, the Kats’ offense struggled to get on track early but still got a 34-yard field goal from Christian Pavon in the second quarter to cut the lead to 7-3, only to see Huff once again put points on the board for a 14-3 lead at the break for the Gamecocks. It marked the fourth straight game the Bearkat offense failed to get in the end zone in the first half, but quarterback Hunter Watson, also surpassed the century mark on the ground with 105 yards rushing for the day, used his legs to inch Sam Houston closer to begin the third when he weaved his way into the end zone for a 21-yard touchdown on the opening drive of the second half. He also ran in the two-point conversion, and just like that the Kats were back in it at 14-11. Sam Houston moved the ball better in the second half, but two missed field goals - one from 37 yards away that would have tied the game in the third - hurt the Kats’ chances of stealing the road win. Neither team put up eye-popping offensive numbers. Sam Houston had 259 yards, and Jax State finished with 332. The Gamecocks just got the big plays from Huff, including his final rushing touchdown with just over 11 minutes left in the game. Sam Houston closes the regular season on Nov. 29 when Liberty comes to Bowers Stadium for a 2:30 p.m. kickoff which will be aired on CBS Sports Network.
