‘Twilight’ star Kristen Stewart dating Miley Cyrus’ ex—report

“Twilight” star Kristen Stewart is reportedly dating Miley Cyrus ex-girlfriend, Victoria’s Secret model Stella Maxwell.

According to a report from People, barely a week after Stewart broke up with French singer Stephanie “Soko” Sokolinski, she was sighted “dating” Maxwell. They were “intimate” during this year’s Met Gala event and Maxwell visited her on the set of upcoming biopic “Untitled Lizzie Borden,” which is directed by Craig William Macneill. In the film, Stewart plays Bridget Sullivan, a witness to murderer Elizabeth Borden’s heinous crime.

“Kristen is dating Stella Maxwell,” a source gossiped to the entertainment news site. “They are having fun.”

Another source enlightened, “When Kristen filmed in Savannah, she spent several days together with Stella, who came to visit her. She was with Kristen on the set most days and seemed to have fun.”

“Kristen also seemed very happy with Stella around,” the second source revealed. “They weren’t affectionate, but definitely acted very friendly and like they had the best time hanging out. Stella seems very easy going. She is always very smiley and has a cute personality.”

Stewart was romantically involved with huge stars in the past, including American musician St. Vincent (whose real name is Annie Clarkand) “Twilight” co-star Robert Pattinson. On the other hand, Maxwell was in a relationship with Miley Cyrus for several months in 2015.  Gianna Francesca Catolico

Cambridge to study technology’s risk to humans

LONDON – Could computers become cleverer than humans and take over the world? Or is that just the stuff of science fiction?

Philosophers and scientists at Britain’s Cambridge University think the question deserves serious study. A proposed Center for the Study of Existential Risk will bring together experts to consider the ways in which super intelligent technology, including artificial intelligence, could “threaten our own existence,” the institution said Sunday.

“In the case of artificial intelligence, it seems a reasonable prediction that some time in this or the next century intelligence will escape from the constraints of biology,” Cambridge philosophy professor Huw Price said.

When that happens, “we’re no longer the smartest things around,” he said, and will risk being at the mercy of “machines that are not malicious, but machines whose interests don’t include us.”

Fears that machines could overtake humans have long been the subject of science fiction — the computer HAL in the movie “2001: A Space Odyssey,” for example, is one of film’s best-known computer threats.

Price acknowledged that many people believe his concerns are far-fetched, but insisted the potential risks are too serious to brush away.

“It tends to be regarded as a flakey concern, but given that we don’t know how serious the risks are, that we don’t know the time scale, dismissing the concerns is dangerous. What we’re trying to do is to push it forward in the respectable scientific community,” he said.

While Price said the exact nature of the risks is difficult to predict, he said that advanced technology could be a threat when computers start to direct resources towards their own goals, at the expense of human concerns like environmental sustainability.


He compared the risk to the way humans have threatened the survival of other animals by spreading across the planet and using up natural resources that other animals depend upon.

Price is co-founding the project together with Cambridge professor of cosmology and astrophysics Martin Rees and Jann Tallinn, one of the founders of the internet phone service Skype.

The university said Sunday the center’s launch is planned next year.
