Private equity firm <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:1;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/ford/fusion/\">Fusion</a> Capital, with decades of involvement in <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:2;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/tag/australia/\">Australia\'s</a> transportation industry, worked out a deal with Brabham Group to license the Brabham name. As the \"majority shareholder, sole funder, and operator of the Automotive company that bears the famous Brabham name,\" Fusion Capital bankrolled the operation, with David Brabham — youngest son of three-time Formula 1 champion Sir Jack Brabham and a <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:3;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/tag/le+mans/\">Le Mans</a> winner himself — the face and soul of the brand. <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:4;\" href=\"https://sportscar365.com/industry/brabham-group-brabham-automotive-terminate-collaboration/\"><em>Sportscar 365</em> reports</a> the collaboration is officially over due to differences of opinion about the \"strategic direction\" of Brabham Automotive.</p> \n<p>David Brabham said in written statement, \"The decision to end the relationship was made after careful consideration and what was in the best interests of all parties and the brand.\" Mat Fitch, chairman of Fusion Capital, said in his own written statement that the investment firm is \"committed to projects that push the limits and defy convention in the <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:5;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/motorsports/\">motorsport</a> and automotive sectors.\"</p> \n<p>The breakup seems to have been a slow burn. In July last year, <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:6;\" href=\"https://www.carexpert.com.au/car-news/brabham-automotive-planning-a-reboot\">Australian outlet <em>Car Expert</em></a> spoke to David about what he called \"a reboot\" for the company, wanting to build more units of the $1.8M AUD ($1.2M U.S.) BT62 and develop a more affordable variant. At the time, Brabham said in response to detailed questions, \"Some of the answers are points of discussion at the moment, so we prefer to wait till these have been sorted.\"   </p> \n<p>Looks like that\'s happened. Neither man stated the source of the disagreement, but other Fitch comments as well as Fusion Capital investments suggest a major difference was over electrification. Fitch\'s statement also included the line, \"Powertrains are evolving, and the opportunity to challenge the mainstream OEMs has never been greater.\" The company owns Australia\'s Bustech, a maker of municipal buses for Australian cities that is heavily engaged in the transition to electric powertrains and clean fuels. As an offshoot, it\'s reportedly looking at developing robotaxis.</p> \n<p>Brabham Automotive had big plans for the BT62, planning to sell 70 examples of the track version, <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:7;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/2019/01/07/brabham-bt62-supercar-road-legal/\">create a roadgoing variant</a> that would enable entry into racing series\' like the World <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:8;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/lordstown/endurance/\">Endurance</a> Championship, contest Le Mans, and develop a tech-heavy, <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:9;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/2018/05/03/brabham-bt62-background-details-interview/\">one-on-one driver coaching</a> operation. We don\'t know how many ended up in private hands. It sounds like the BT62\'s story isn\'t necessarily over, but whatever the BT62 potentially morphs into won\'t bear the Brabham name and might not be powered by a naturally aspirated, 700-horsepower, 5.4-liter <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:10;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/ford/\">Ford</a> V8. Yet another Fitch line was, \"My family and I have invested in automotive and manufacturing for over 40 years and ... what we have created provides the perfect platform for the future.\"  </p> \n<p>Given more time and that road-going version, the BT62 might have been able to make more of a name for itself. The track version set a lap record at Australia\'s Mount Panorama circuit, and scored a race win plus a few podiums in the GT2 European Series.</p> \n<p>We undoubtedly haven\'t heard the last of the Brabham name, either. The <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:11;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/scion/\">scion</a> wrote, “While it is regrettable that our relationship with Fusion Capital has come to an end, the collaboration helped further evolve Brabham to a new and exciting future. ... With the brand license for Automotive ended, it opens the doors for future business ventures in the Motorsport, Automotive and Heritage sectors. I would like to personally thank everyone who contributed and supported to this project over the years.\"</p></div>\n				\n</div>\n\n	</div>', 'Filed under:\n Coupe,Luxury,Racing Vehicles,Special and Limited Editions,Performance,Supercars\n Continue reading Brabham Automotive and the BT62 track car dead for now\nBrabham Automotive and the BT62 track car dead for now originally appeared on Autoblog on Tu…', 'https://s.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/1062x597/format/jpg/quality/100/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2024/01/13131803/brabham_bt62_road_car.jpg', '110', NULL, NULL, '', 'newsapi', NULL, NULL, '2024-01-18', '288', '0', '0', NULL, NULL, NULL),

We have no idea what engine sits behind the RB17\'s cockpit, and suspect the chance of it wearing a Blue Oval badge (for due cause, not badge engineering) are close enough to zero to be considered zero, but that doesn\'t stop us from thinking it would be great to see.</p> \n<p>Horner said the RB17\'s target weight is 900 kilograms (1,984 pounds). <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:12;\" href=\"https://www.topgear.com/car-news/supercars/aston-martin-valkyrie-amr-pro-harris-drives-track-only-racer\"><em>Top Gear</em>, which drove</a> Red Bull\'s most recent track-only hypercar project, the non-hybrid, V12-powered <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:13;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/aston+martin/\">Aston Martin</a> Valkyrie AMR Pro, said it weighs 1,009 kg (2,225 lbs). The track-only version of the road-legal Gordon Murray Automotive T.50, called the T.50s, weighs 851 kg (1,878 pounds). For comparison, last year\'s minimum weight for an F1 car was 798 kg (1,759 pounds).</p> \n<p>Red Bull\'s targeting a lower center of gravity for its 900 kg than found on the Valkyrie AMR Pro. The RB17\'s said to have a longer wheelbase than that of the 124-inch span on the Aston Martin, the Pro\'s wheelbase itself stretched 15 inches beyond the wheelbase of the regular road Valkyrie. The RB17\'s also expected with larger wheels, too, meaning hoops larger than 18 inches, a bit surprising seeing that would outdo the spec sizes for F1 and LMP1 cars as well. </p> \n<p>Motorsports fans have long mused on what Red Bull chief technology officer Adrian Newey could create without restrictions; Red Bull has done the same, creating virtual concepts like the <a data-ylk=\"elm:context_link;itc:0;pos:1;sec:donut-hole;cpos:14;\" href=\"https://www.autoblog.com/2010/11/10/from-virtual-to-reality-gt5s-red-bull-x1-prototype-jump/\">X1 for Gran Turismo in 2010</a>. The RB17 will be the first real-world demonstration, originally described with phrases like \"All the tricks we\'ve learned in F1\" and \"Adrian\'s greatest hits.\" </p> \n<p>Production begins in RBAT facilities later this year, the division capping assembly at no more than 15 per year. With a planned production run of 50 cars, that\'s more than three years for builds. The multi-million-pound purchase price is said to pay for service and maintenance, access to Red Bull simulators, and on-track instruction. And Christian Horner wants everyone to know, \"It will sound fantastic, like a track car should.\" </p> \n<p><strong>Related Video:</strong></p> \n \n</div>\n				</div>\n\n	</div>', 'Filed under:\n Coupe,Future Vehicles,Hybrid,Luxury,Racing Vehicles,Special and Limited Editions,Performance,Supercars\n Continue reading Red Bull RB17 due in 2024, makes 1,250 hp, weighs 1,984 lbs\nRed Bull RB17 due in 2024, makes 1,250 hp, weighs 1,984 lbs orig…', 'https://s.aolcdn.com/images/dims3/GLOB/legacy_thumbnail/1062x597/format/jpg/quality/100/https://s.aolcdn.com/os/ab/_cms/2024/01/05134011/red_bull_rb17_tease.jpg', '110', NULL, NULL, '', 'newsapi', NULL, NULL, '2024-01-18', '288', '0', '0', NULL, NULL, NULL),

Both offer a slightly elevated ride height typical of an SUV, along with fresh and modern cabins filled with the latest in technology.</p> <p>Of the two, the Kia EV6 is the extrovert. Its swept-back shape makes it look like a cross between a wagon, SUV, and sports car. Now in its third model year, <a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/if-youre-thinking-of-anew-electriccar-take-a-serious-look-at-the-2023-kia-ev6-1fef0b81?mod=article_inline\">the EV6 continues to impress us with its power, efficiency, and sharp handling.</a> Opt for the range-topping EV6 GT, and you’ll get a 500-plus horsepower powertrain that’s good for a sprint to 60 mph in a supercar-like 3.5 seconds.</p>\n      <div>\n       <p>The Volkswagen ID.4 may not possess the same visual pull as the EV6, but it’s still an attractive 5-seat SUV in a more reserved way.

Standard 800-volt DC fast charging capability allows the EV6 to be recharged from approximately 10% to 80% in as little as 18 minutes.</p> <p>For 2024, the entry-level EV6 Light RWD model has been made available across the U.S. — sales were previously limited to California. It has a starting price of $42,600, not including a $1,325 factory-to-dealer delivery fee.</p> <p><strong>Kia EV6 highlights</strong></p> <p><strong>EV6 GT performance:</strong> Want to humble some supercars with your next electric vehicle? The top-of-the-line EV6 GT can do that, thanks to two electric motors, the larger 82-kilowatt-hour battery pack, and AWD. Punch the accelerator, and you’ll rocket to 60 mph in about 3.5 seconds. That’s fast, folks, really fast. One caveat: The EV6 GT has only 218 miles of range, the shortest in the 2024 Kia EV6 range.</p> <p><strong>Sleek infotainment system: </strong>The dashboard features a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster mounted flush alongside a 12.3-inch infotainment touchscreen. This expanse of screens gives the EV6 the look of a space shuttle. The logical controls and menus are even better. While it’s s easy to build a flashy infotainment unit, Kia has crafted one that’s also user-friendly for daily driving.</p> <p><strong>A trim for all EV needs:</strong> We like the variety of trims offered by the EV6. It can be a zippy runabout in Light RWD format or a zero-emission sports car with the GT. There is a lot of gray area in the middle, however. A nice balance of value and performance is the EV6 Light Long Range RWD. It costs about $45,000, and the single-motor 225-hp powertrain provides 310 miles of range.</p> <p><strong>Read more:</strong> <a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/kia-jumps-into-electric-car-price-wars-by-bringing-back-the-ev6-light-75a78cd5?mod=article_inline\">Kia jumps into electric car price wars by bringing back the EV6 Light</a></p><h2><strong>2024 Volkswagen ID.4</strong></h2>\n        <div data-layout=\"inline&#xA;                \" data-layout-mobile=\"\">\n        \n        \n          \n        \n        \n        \n            <figure itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http://schema.org/ImageObject\">\n      \n    \n      <p><img alt=\"\" itemprop=\"contentUrl\" sizes=\"(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 979px) 620px, (max-width: 1299px) 540px, 700px\" src=\"https://images.mktw.net/im-377404?width=700&amp;height=389\" srcset=\"https://images.mktw.net/im-377404?width=540&amp;size=1.7985611510791366 540w, https://images.mktw.net/im-377404?width=620&amp;size=1.7985611510791366 620w, https://images.mktw.net/im-377404?width=639&amp;size=1.7985611510791366 639w, https://images.mktw.net/im-377404?width=700&amp;size=1.7985611510791366 700w, https://images.mktw.net/im-377404?width=700&amp;size=1.7985611510791366&amp;pixel_ratio=1.5 1050w, https://images.mktw.net/im-377404?width=700&amp;size=1.7985611510791366&amp;pixel_ratio=2 1400w, https://images.mktw.net/im-377404?width=700&amp;size=1.7985611510791366&amp;pixel_ratio=3 2100w\" title=\"\"></img>\n      </p>\n\n    \n      <figcaption itemprop=\"caption\">\n          <h4>Volkswagen ID.4</h4>\n      <span itemprop=\"creator\">\n            Volkswagen\n          </span>\n  </figcaption>\n    </figure>\n\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        </div> \n       <p>The Volkswagen ID.4 enters its fourth model year with notable performance updates that apply to the larger of the two available battery packs. A rear-wheel-drive ID.4 with this updated 82-kWh battery sees horsepower jump from 201 to 282. Meanwhile, the all-wheel-drive ID.4 with this same battery now has 330 horsepower versus 295 previously.</p> <p>The range has also been nudged higher this model year. The maximum range now stands at 291 miles, whereas the 2023 ID.4’s best was 263 miles. A 12.9-inch touchscreen is fitted to upper trims this model year, too. Pricing starts at an expected $40,000.</p> <p><strong>Volkswagen ID.4 highlights</strong></p> <p><strong>Standard safety features:</strong> The ID.4 has several active safety features bundled into what Volkswagen calls the IQ.Drive safety suite. This consists of automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic warning, lane-keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and more. </p> <p><strong>Improved range:</strong> We’re happy to see Volkswagen is keeping the ID.4 fresh and even more practical by boosting its driving range this year. With 291 miles per charge, the ID.4 is now competitive against a growing lineup of electric rivals.</p> <p><strong>Cargo volume:</strong> True, the ID.4 lacks the visual punch of the Kia EV6. But you can get more cargo inside courtesy of its rounder shape. Behind the split-folding rear seats, there are 30.3 cubic feet of cargo volume. That’s a generous amount of space and more than the Kia EV6 provides.</p> <p><strong>You might also like: </strong><a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/the-2024-kia-niro-ev-vs-the-nissan-leaf-see-how-these-two-compact-electric-cars-compare-c47b70a3?mod=article_inline\">The 2024 Kia Niro EV vs. the Nissan Leaf: See how these two compact electric cars compare</a></p><h2><strong>Similarities</strong></h2>\n        <div data-layout=\"inline&#xA;                \" data-layout-mobile=\"\">\n        \n        \n          \n        \n        \n        \n            <figure itemscope=\"\" itemtype=\"http://schema.org/ImageObject\">\n      \n    \n      <p><img alt=\"\" itemprop=\"contentUrl\" sizes=\"(max-width: 639px) 100vw, (max-width: 979px) 620px, (max-width: 1299px) 540px, 700px\" src=\"https://images.mktw.net/im-712278?width=700&amp;height=445\" srcset=\"https://images.mktw.net/im-712278?width=540&amp;size=1.5735641227380015 540w, https://images.mktw.net/im-712278?width=620&amp;size=1.5735641227380015 620w, https://images.mktw.net/im-712278?width=639&amp;size=1.5735641227380015 639w, https://images.mktw.net/im-712278?width=700&amp;size=1.5735641227380015 700w, https://images.mktw.net/im-712278?width=700&amp;size=1.5735641227380015&amp;pixel_ratio=1.5 1050w, https://images.mktw.net/im-712278?width=700&amp;size=1.5735641227380015&amp;pixel_ratio=2 1400w, https://images.mktw.net/im-712278?width=700&amp;size=1.5735641227380015&amp;pixel_ratio=3 2100w\" title=\"\"></img>\n      </p>\n\n    \n      <figcaption itemprop=\"caption\">\n          <h4>The VW ID.4</h4>\n      <span itemprop=\"creator\">\n            Volkswagen\n          </span>\n  </figcaption>\n    </figure>\n\n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        \n        </div> \n       <p>The EV6 and ID.4 have similar starting prices and maximum ranges within 19 miles of the other.

It has a head-turning shape that gives this Kia a seriously sporty flair. Having a high-performance model like the GT only adds to this Kia’s racy allure, although the range takes a hit.</p> <p>The Volkswagen ID.4 is more sensible and straightforward in its approach. It looks more like a regular run-of-the-mill SUV with room for five onboard, and the added range for 2024 makes it much more attractive. For many people, having a lower starting price and extra cargo space is far more important than flashy looks and blisteringly quick acceleration. It also has a significantly tighter turning radius than the Kia.</p> <p><strong>Read: </strong><a href=\"https://www.marketwatch.com/story/heres-your-ultimate-list-of-best-buy-cars-trucks-suvs-and-evs-for-2024-a6c7e632?mod=article_inline\">Here’s your ultimate list of best-buy cars, trucks, SUVs and EVs for 2024</a></p> <p>Still, all things considered, the Kia EV6 gets the nod in this comparison.

As the Head of Design at Automobili Lamborghini, he walks Yanko Design through his creative process, illuminating how the new Countach is a culmination of various iconic elements from its predecessors, reimagined for the 21st century.</p>\n<p>Designer: <a href=\"https://www.lamborghini.com/en-en/models/limited-series/countach-lpi-800-4\">Mitja Borkert for Lamborghini</a></p>\n\n<p>Borkert’s design journey begins with the original Countach prototype, unveiled 50 years ago at the Geneva Auto Show. He extracts the essence of its purity and simplicity, as evidenced in the uncluttered silhouette and the slim front grille. This minimalist approach is a nod to the prototype’s untainted form, a defining characteristic he sought to echo in the new model.</p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Exploring the 2022 Lamborghini Countach: An In-Depth Design Analysis with Mitja Borkert\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/01/16/exploring-the-2022-lamborghini-countach-an-in-depth-design-analysis-with-mitja-borkert/\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2024/01/reimagining-a-classic-mitja-borkerts-design-approach-for-the-2022-lamborghini-countach/countach-80-doors.jpg\" data-src=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2024/01/reimagining-a-classic-mitja-borkerts-design-approach-for-the-2022-lamborghini-countach/countach-80-doors.jpg\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"850\" src=\"data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%201280%20850%22%3E%3C/svg%3E\" width=\"1280\"></img></p>\n\n\n<p>The influence of the LP400 ‘Periscopio’ is evident in the innovative photochromatic roof panels of the 2022 Countach. This modern interpretation of the ‘Periscopio’ view offers a contemporary solution to the original’s limited rear visibility, allowing the driver to adjust the transparency of the roof panels as needed.</p>\n<p>The most striking inspiration comes from the LP5000 Quattrovalvole, known for its exaggerated features and a favorite among Countach enthusiasts. Borkert draws from this version to infuse the new Countach with a sense of drama and presence. The hexagonal wheel arches, reminiscent of the Quattrovalvole’s prominent flares, are reinterpreted with a more human, rounded form. This subtle softening of lines blends the Countach’s characteristic sharpness with elegance.</p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Exploring the 2022 Lamborghini Countach: An In-Depth Design Analysis with Mitja Borkert\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/01/16/exploring-the-2022-lamborghini-countach-an-in-depth-design-analysis-with-mitja-borkert/\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2024/01/reimagining-a-classic-mitja-borkerts-design-approach-for-the-2022-lamborghini-countach/black-countach-80.jpg\" data-src=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2024/01/reimagining-a-classic-mitja-borkerts-design-approach-for-the-2022-lamborghini-countach/black-countach-80.jpg\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"850\" src=\"data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%201280%20850%22%3E%3C/svg%3E\" width=\"1280\"></img></p>\n<p>In reimagining the Countach for the present day, Borkert doesn’t just replicate; he reinterprets. For instance, the new model’s taillights are an agonal shape iconic to the original but are slimmed down, aligning with the car’s overall streamlined aesthetic. The chopped-off rear end, another hallmark of the classic Countach, is reenvisioned to dramatically showcase the rear tires, much like a motorcycle, adding to the car’s dynamic stance.</p>\n<p><img alt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Exploring the 2022 Lamborghini Countach: An In-Depth Design Analysis with Mitja Borkert\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/01/16/exploring-the-2022-lamborghini-countach-an-in-depth-design-analysis-with-mitja-borkert/\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2024/01/exploring-the-2022-lamborghini-countach-an-in-depth-design-analysis-with-mitja-borkert/countach-rear.jpg\" data-src=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2024/01/exploring-the-2022-lamborghini-countach-an-in-depth-design-analysis-with-mitja-borkert/countach-rear.jpg\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"850\" src=\"data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%201280%20850%22%3E%3C/svg%3E\" width=\"1280\"></img></p>\n\n\n<p><img alt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Exploring the 2022 Lamborghini Countach: An In-Depth Design Analysis with Mitja Borkert\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/2024/01/16/exploring-the-2022-lamborghini-countach-an-in-depth-design-analysis-with-mitja-borkert/\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2024/01/exploring-the-2022-lamborghini-countach-an-in-depth-design-analysis-with-mitja-borkert/red-c-80.jpg\" data-src=\"https://www.yankodesign.com/images/design_news/2024/01/exploring-the-2022-lamborghini-countach-an-in-depth-design-analysis-with-mitja-borkert/red-c-80.jpg\" decoding=\"async\" height=\"850\" src=\"data:image/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http://www.w3.org/2000/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%201280%20850%22%3E%3C/svg%3E\" width=\"1280\"></img></p>\n\n<p>His vision for the 2022 Countach extends to its interior, drawing inspiration from a white Countach with a red interior owned by Lamborghini in the mid-1980s.

Preempting the heated online discussion that is sure to ensure over the coming days, Liberty Walk commented the following on Instagram: “We are doing whatever we want.â€ Hell yes, kings!</p><p>Of course there are the requisite bolted-on fender flares, completely slammed suspension, and wide wheels. The Liberty Walk Countach also has a front bumper reminiscent of the Diablo GT and the famed JGTC Countach, extreme front canards, a giant rear wing, a race car–like rear diffuser and some upward-angled exhaust tips. Smaller mods include round mirrors, a modified taillight panel and a roof scoop.</p><p>Liberty Walk didn’t release any interior photos, but racing bucket seats with harnesses are visible. We also don’t know if the show car has any performance modifications  in addition to the suspension setup, but I don’t think it really matters either way. Whoever purchases this body kit for their Countach will surely add a twin-turbo kit and other mods — if they haven’t already, that is.</p><figure contenteditable=\"false\" data-alt=\"Rear 3/4 view of a white Lamborghini Countach with a Liberty Walk body kit\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-height=\"1280\" data-hide=\"false\" data-id=\"ae56f3f07a73318432e676983a1f69d7\" data-lightbox=\"true\" data-recommend-id=\"image://ae56f3f07a73318432e676983a1f69d7\" data-recommended=\"false\" data-width=\"1920\" draggable=\"false\"><div contenteditable=\"false\" data-alt=\"Rear 3/4 view of a white Lamborghini Countach with a Liberty Walk body kit\" data-hide=\"false\" data-hidecredit=\"false\" data-imagerights=\"other-license\" data-link-reference=\"\" data-link-target=\"\" data-syndicationrights=\"false\"><p><span><div><picture><source data-srcset=\"https://i.kinja-img.com/image/upload/c_fit,q_60,w_645/ae56f3f07a73318432e676983a1f69d7.jpg\" media=\"(max-width: 37.31em)\" srcset=\"R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" type=\"image/jpeg\"></source><source data-srcset=\"https://i.kinja-img.com/image/upload/c_fit,q_60,w_1315/ae56f3f07a73318432e676983a1f69d7.jpg\" media=\"(min-width: 37.37em)\" srcset=\"R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" type=\"image/jpeg\"></source><img alt=\"Rear 3/4 view of a white Lamborghini Countach with a Liberty Walk body kit\" data-alt=\"Rear 3/4 view of a white Lamborghini Countach with a Liberty Walk body kit\" data-anim-src=\"\" data-chomp-id=\"ae56f3f07a73318432e676983a1f69d7\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-src=\"https://i.kinja-img.com/image/upload/c_fit,q_60,w_645/ae56f3f07a73318432e676983a1f69d7.jpg\" src=\"R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\"></img></picture></div></span></p><p><figcaption>Photo: Liberty Walk</figcaption></p></div><span data-alt=\"Rear 3/4 view of a white Lamborghini Countach with a Liberty Walk body kit\" data-format=\"jpg\" data-height=\"1280\" data-hide=\"false\" data-id=\"ae56f3f07a73318432e676983a1f69d7\" data-lightbox=\"true\" data-recommend-id=\"image://ae56f3f07a73318432e676983a1f69d7\" data-recommended=\"false\" data-width=\"1920\"></span></figure><p><span><a data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;Internal link&quot;,&quot;https://jalopnik.com/japans-lamborghini-day-is-delightfully-colorful-1819731771&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https://jalopnik.com/japans-lamborghini-day-is-delightfully-colorful-1819731771\">Japanese Lamborghini owners</a></span> are notorious for <span><a data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;Internal link&quot;,&quot;https://jalopnik.com/meet-a-japanese-gangster-and-his-flashing-neon-lamborgh-866158240&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https://jalopnik.com/meet-a-japanese-gangster-and-his-flashing-neon-lamborgh-866158240\">modifying</a></span> and <span><a data-ga=\"[[&quot;Embedded Url&quot;,&quot;Internal link&quot;,&quot;https://jalopnik.com/meet-torako-the-lamborghini-cat-in-tokyo-1823535928&quot;,{&quot;metric25&quot;:1}]]\" href=\"https://jalopnik.com/meet-torako-the-lamborghini-cat-in-tokyo-1823535928\">driving the hell out of their supercars</a></span>.

But look at it this way — that’s quite literally millions of dollars cheaper than an actual Ferrari F40, for something much, much cooler and more unique.

That was previously evidenced by the gorgeously retro <a data-cms-ai=\"0\" href=\"https://newatlas.com/honda-e-reservations/59807/\">Honda e</a>, and it\'s now being further evidenced by two very different concepts revealed at CES 2024. Part of Honda\'s new 0 Series, the new Saloon looks more like a coupe that could be in Lamborghini\'s future, an aggressive wedge that rides roomy thanks to a high, stretched roofline. The Space-Hub is a little truer to its name, a big, boxy MPV with panoramic glasshouse and flexible interior. If this is what Honda\'s electric future looks like, we can\'t wait to arrive. </p><p>When Honda first teased the Saloon last month in the picture below, it chose perhaps the car\'s worst angle. The dim shot of the front-end made us think \"anteater\" immediately, and we had trouble thinking of anything else.

A large grille makes the nose look wider than ever, while the front fenders and headlights look similar to those of the new Aston Martin DB12 and other members of the Aston family.</p>\n\n<p>To my eyes, the side air intakes look larger than on a show car <a aria-label=\"revealed by Aston in September\" data-ga-track=\"InternalLink:https://www.forbes.com/sites/alistaircharlton/2023/09/27/aston-martin-valhalla-supercar-to-arrive-in-2024-with-f1-tech/?sh=101e6a256105\" href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/alistaircharlton/2023/09/27/aston-martin-valhalla-supercar-to-arrive-in-2024-with-f1-tech/?sh=101e6a256105\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/alistaircharlton/2023/09/27/aston-martin-valhalla-supercar-to-arrive-in-2024-with-f1-tech/?sh=101e6a256105\">revealed by Aston in September</a>, and the overall look shares its proportions with fellow mid-engined supercars like the Maserati MC20 and Lotus Exige, as well as the all-electric <a aria-label=\"Rimac Nevera\" data-ga-track=\"InternalLink:https://www.forbes.com/sites/alistaircharlton/2023/05/17/electric-rimac-nevera-just-set-23-new-performance-car-records/?sh=2747033531f8\" href=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/alistaircharlton/2023/05/17/electric-rimac-nevera-just-set-23-new-performance-car-records/?sh=2747033531f8\" target=\"_self\" title=\"https://www.forbes.com/sites/alistaircharlton/2023/05/17/electric-rimac-nevera-just-set-23-new-performance-car-records/?sh=2747033531f8\">Rimac Nevera</a>.</p>\n\n<figure role=\"presentation\"><figcaption><fbs-accordion><p>Expected to cost from around $800,000, the Valhalla is due to go into production in 2024.</p></fbs-accordion><small>Aston Martin</small></figcaption></figure><fbs-ad ad-id=\"article-0-inread\" aria-hidden=\"true\" position=\"inread\" progressive=\"\" role=\"presentation\"></fbs-ad>\n<p>The photos also show off a massive rear wing, clearly deployable with a pair of gas struts holding it high above the rear deck for maximum downforce. I suspect it’ll tuck down nicely when the driver isn’t on track and instead wants to maximize fuel efficiency.</p>\n\n<p>Speaking of which, the Valhalla is to be Aston Martin’s first plug-in hybrid. It’s powered by an AMG-sourced, 4.0-liter V8 engine with three electric motors providing all-wheel-drive and resulting in a total power output of over 1,000 horsepower. Add that to the carbon chassis and F1-style driving position, and Valhalla will no doubt be properly quick; Aston says 62 mph (100 km/h) will be dispatched in 2.5 seconds and the top speed is 217 mph.</p>\n\n<p>There are no proper pictures of the rear just yet, where the Valhalla is expected to feature a sizable diffuser and Venturi tunnels, which when combined with the huge rear wing promise to create 600 kg (1,300 lbs) of downforce at 150 mph.</p>\n\n\n<p>Expected to cost in the region of $800,000 (plus options, of course), the carbon-tubbed Valhalla is the strongest sign yet that Aston Martin wants to take on Ferrari, McLaren and Lamborghini. This is the first mid-engined car to be mass-produced by Aston, and although 999 units is still somewhat limited, it’s plenty more than the 150 bespoke Valkyrie coupes (plus 85 spiders and 40 track-only AMR Pros) currently in production.</p>\n<p>Aston Martin regularly tests cars at Silverstone. But instead of always using the full-length Grand Prix circuit, the company also has access to the Stowe Circuit, a smaller, self-contained track on the same site.</p>\n</div><div><p><span>Follow me on </span><a href=\"https://www.twitter.com/www.twitter.com/alistairj90\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Twitter</a> or <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/alistair-charlton-5b628a26/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">LinkedIn</a>. </p></div>', 'Just before it closed up shop for the holidays, Aston Martin this week gave us a tease of its upcoming Valhalla hybrid supercar.', 'https://imageio.forbes.com/specials-images/imageserve/6585a6c53a1f1e2b998564af/0x0.jpg?format=jpg&height=900&width=1600&fit=bounds', '110', NULL, NULL, '', 'newsapi', NULL, NULL, '2024-01-18', '288', '0', '0', NULL, NULL, NULL),

It still prohibits the use of its large language models (LLMs) for anything that can cause harm, and it warns people against using its services to \"develop or use weapons.\" However, the company has removed language pertaining to \"military and warfare.\"</p><p>While we\'ve yet to see its real-life implications, this change in wording comes just as military agencies around the world are showing an interest in using AI. \"Given the use of AI systems in the targeting of civilians in Gaza, it’s a notable moment to make the decision to remove the words ‘military and warfare’ from OpenAI’s permissible use policy,â€ Sarah Myers West, a managing director of the AI Now Institute, told the publication.</p><p>The explicit mention of \"military and warfare\" in the list of prohibited uses indicated that OpenAI couldn\'t work with government agencies like the Department of Defense, which typically offers lucrative deals to contractors. At the moment, the company doesn\'t have a product that could directly kill or cause physical harm to anybody. But as<em> The Intercept </em>said, its technology could be used for tasks like writing code and processing procurement orders for things that could be used to kill people.</p><p>When asked about the change in its policy wording, OpenAI spokesperson Niko Felix told the publication that the company \"aimed to create a set of universal principles that are both easy to remember and apply, especially as our tools are now globally used by everyday users who can now also build GPTs.\" Felix explained that \"a principle like ‘Don’t harm others’ is broad yet easily grasped and relevant in numerous contexts,\" adding that OpenAI \"specifically cited weapons and injury to others as clear examples.\" However, the spokesperson reportedly declined to clarify whether prohibiting the use of its technology to \"harm\" others included all types of military use outside of weapons development.</p><p>In a statement to Engadget, an OpenAI spokesperson admitted that the company is already working with the US Department of Defense. \"Our policy does not allow our tools to be used to harm people, develop weapons, for communications surveillance, or to injure others or destroy property,\" the spokesperson said. \"There are, however, national security use cases that align with our mission.

If they used AI tools to generate art, code, sound or any other kind of content for their title, developers must ensure that they do not include anything illegal or anything that infringes on someone else\'s copyright. Valve says it will evaluate each game and check if the developer has submitted truthful information.</p><p>For live-generated AI content, developers have to tell the company what kind of guardrails they\'ve put up to prevent their games from creating anything considered illegal. And since Valve will not be able to review all content games create in real time, it\'s launching a new system on Steam that will allow players to easily send in a report. If a player sees anything they believe should\'ve been caught by appropriate guardrails, they can use Steam\'s new in-game overlay to notify the company.</p><p>Valve said it will also be transparent with gamers when it comes with what kind of AI content a developer\'s title has by including their disclosure on their Steam store page. The company explained that the new rules are a result of it improving its \"understanding of the landscape and risks\" in the AI space. Last year, Valve <a data-i13n=\"cpos:2;pos:1\" data-ylk=\"slk:admitted;cpos:2;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" href=\"https://www.engadget.com/valve-wont-publish-games-that-feature-copyright-infringing-ai-assets-204703804.html\">admitted</a> that it was still \"working through\" how to account for AI content in its review process after developers complained that the company was rejecting their submissions. It needed \"some time to learn about the fast-moving and legally murky space of AI technology,\" Valve clarified in its new post. The company said it still can\'t release games with live-generated adult sexual content right now, but that it will revisit its rules as it learns more about the technology and as the legal issues surrounding it evolves.</p></div>', 'Valve has introduced new rules to abide by that will allow the company to add more games with AI content to its Steam gaming platform.

The system picks up on signs exhibited by pregnant cows about five hours ahead of labor, like increased movement and the beginning of the release of the calf\'s amniotic sac. \"We want to be able to also detect when a female cow is in heat and other behavioral patterns,\" said Nikon\'s Kazuhiro Hirano.</p><p>The system apparently does the job well, according a livestock owner who participated in the tests last year. \"We deliver about 60 calves per year and had to check the mothers every few hours from around a month before they are due. This system has been a great help,\" said Keita Higuchi.</p><p>Nikon is best known for its consumer cameras, but it also manufactures microscopes, X-Ray systems, semiconductor systems, robot vision, virtual production studios and more.

With most content providers currently lacking native 8K streaming options, Samsung’s AI Upscaling Pro feature in its QN900D (65- to 85-inch) television can help by converting 4K content into 8K or HD / SD media into 4K.</p><p>The company says the QN900D is the “slimmest, most premium 8K TV to ever hit the market.â€ In addition to resolution upscaling, the television includes a trick to recognize when you’re watching sports and help track the game’s ball on the screen.

While the design has been updated to a degree, The basic idea remains the same: a larger countertop device that brings the ability to smoke foods inside the kitchen without setting off the fire alarm in your house or apartment.</p><p>With an appliance the size of a compact mini fridge, the GE Profile Smart Indoor Smoker uses so-called Active Smoke Filtration technology that employs a \"catalyst system\" to create wood smoke from pellets and combine it with an electric heating element. The airflow setup is designed to impart \"maximum flavor\" into a variety of foods while tight gaskets keep the smoke inside. GE Appliances says the unit is suitable for all skill levels thanks to five smoke presets. There are also six food-specific settings for popular smoked foods like brisket, ribs, pork butt, chicken wings, chicken breast and salmon. The company says the customization available on the smoker also allows users to prepare side dishes and desserts with the device.</p><p>What\'s more, there are some conveniences that outdoor smokers don\'t offer. A Smoke and Hold feature prepares foods and then keeps them at food-safe temperatures for up to 24 hours. GE Appliances says the smoker also uses a fraction of the wood pellets as outdoor grills, thanks in part to the additional heating element, and that a pellet capture system extinguishes used pellets in a water tank. Lastly, all of the racks and drip trays are dishwasher safe where those components are typically so large on outdoor smokers they need to be washed by hand.</p><p>As the name implies, there\'s a connected aspect to the GE Profile Smart Indoor Smoker. With GE Profile Connect+ app, you can adjust smoke levels and monitor the cooking process as the unit includes a food probe. The company says feature updates like guided recipes will be available in the future. This is an indoor device, but you don\'t have to sacrifice capacity. GE Appliances says there\'s enough room for three racks of baby back ribs, a brisket, up to 40 wings or a 14-pounds pork butt. Since most pork butts you\'ll find at grocery stores are around eight pounds or less, there\'s ample room for pulled pork.</p><p>Taking a look at the device on the show floor at CES 2024, the machine isn\'t exactly small. It still carries over a little bit of that former fridge DNA, which is how it first began as a crowdfunding project. A spokesperson added that the project\'s backers are receiving machines identical to the retail model, which are being shipped out to them now.</p><figure><div><div><p><img alt=\"GE Profile Smart Indoor Smoker\" data-src=\"https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/b6sx5IdZlRc3m4qV6ODiUA--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTY0MA--/https://s.yimg.com/os/creatr-uploaded-images/2024-01/b7495ac0-aa44-11ee-bbbe-8fbc56772cca\"></img></p></div></div><p><figcaption><span> GE Appliances</span></figcaption></p></figure><p>Part of GE\'s Profile appliance lineup, it\'s an understated machine, with the kind of controls you\'d find on premium kitchen appliances.</p><p>Because the wood pellets’ only function is to add smokiness and not power the cooking process, only a handful of pellets are needed per smoking session. When the machine\'s in action, there’s a mild smokey aroma around the machine, but it dissipates a foot or two away from the machine.</p><p>Unfortunately, due to catering rules here at CES, GE wasn’t allowed to serve the brisket they were smoking during the show, so we can’t critique the quality of the end result. It certainly looked (and smelled) good.</p><p>The GE Profile Smart Indoor Smoker will be available from retailers this month for $1,000.</p><div><ul><li><p><img data-src=\"https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/S4nUaPG.qfbkOKf4ekAgdg--/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTI0MDtoPTE4MA--/https://s.yimg.com/uu/api/res/1.2/KobKvMejnOShUyuGt7qLOA--~B/aD02Njc7dz04ODc7YXBwaWQ9eXRhY2h5b24-/https://media-mbst-pub-ue1.s3.amazonaws.com/creatr-uploaded-images/2024-01/cf8f2660-aa43-11ee-9bdd-8fbe44151e60\" height=\"90\" width=\"120\"></img></p><div><div><h3>GE Profile Smart Indoor Smoker</h3></div></div></li></ul></div><p><strong>Update, January 8 7PM ET: </strong>This article has been updated with impressions of the Smart Indoor Smoker from CES 2024.</p><p><em>We\'re reporting live from CES 2024 in Las Vegas from January 6-12.

Applying a voltage as small as 0.5V on the eSoil electrically stimulates the roots, Stavrinidou explained.

(1358, 'The Battle for Biometric Privacy', '<div><div data-journey-hook=\"client-content\" data-testid=\"BodyWrapper\"><div><p>In 2024, increased adoption of biometric surveillance systems, such as the use of AI-powered facial recognition in public places and access to government services, will spur biometric identity theft and anti-surveillance innovations. Individuals aiming to steal biometric identities to commit fraud or gain access to unauthorized data will be bolstered by generative AI tools and the abundance of face and voice data posted online.</p><p>Already, voice clones are being used for scams. Take for example, Jennifer DeStefano, a mom in Arizona who heard the panicked voice of her daughter crying “<a data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/family/story/mom-warns-hoax-ai-clone-daughters-voice-98551351&quot;}\" data-offer-url=\"https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/family/story/mom-warns-hoax-ai-clone-daughters-voice-98551351\" href=\"https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/family/story/mom-warns-hoax-ai-clone-daughters-voice-98551351\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Mom, these bad men have me!â€</a> after receiving a call from an unknown number. The scammer demanded money. DeStefano was eventually able to confirm that her daughter was safe. This hoax is a precursor for more sophisticated biometric scams that will target our deepest fears by using the images and sounds of our loved ones to coerce us to do the bidding of whoever deploys these tools.</p><p>In 2024, some governments will likely adopt biometric mimicry to support psychological torture. In the past, a person of interest might be told false information with little evidence to support the claims other than the words of the interrogator. Today, a person being questioned may have been arrested due to a false facial recognition match. Dark-skinned men in the United States, including <a href=\"https://www.wired.com/story/wrongful-arrests-ai-derailed-3-mens-lives/\">Robert Williams, Michael Oliver, Nijeer Parks</a>, and <a href=\"https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/31/technology/facial-recognition-false-arrests.html\">Randal Reid</a>, have been wrongfully arrested due to facial misidentification, detained and imprisoned for crimes they did not commit. They are among a group of individuals, including the elderly, people of color, and gender nonconforming individuals, who are at higher risk of facial misidentification.</p><p>Generative AI tools also give intelligence agencies the ability to create false evidence, like a video of an alleged coconspirator confessing to a crime. Perhaps just as harrowing is that the power to create digital doppelgängers will not be limited to entities with large budgets. The availability of open-sourced generative AI systems that can produce humanlike voices and false videos will increase the circulation of revenge porn, child sexual abuse materials, and more on the dark web.</p><p>By 2024 we will have growing numbers of “excodedâ€ communities and people—those whose life opportunities have been negatively altered by AI systems. At the <a data-event-click=\"{&quot;element&quot;:&quot;ExternalLink&quot;,&quot;outgoingURL&quot;:&quot;http://fly.ajl.org&quot;}\" data-offer-url=\"http://fly.ajl.org\" href=\"http://fly.ajl.org\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Algorithmic Justice League, we have received hundreds of reports about biometric rights being compromised.</a> In response, we will witness the rise of the faceless, those who are committed to keeping their biometric identities hidden in plain sight.</p><p>Because biometric rights will vary across the world, fashion choices will reflect regional biometric regimes. Face coverings, like those used for religious purposes or medical masks to stave off viruses, will be adopted as both fashion statement and anti-surveillance garments where permitted. In 2019, when protesters began destroying surveillance equipment while obscuring their appearance, a <a href=\"https://www.pbs.org/newshour/world/hong-kong-leader-bans-protesters-from-wearing-masks\">Hong Kong government leader banned face masks</a>.</p><p>In 2024, we will start to see a bifurcation of mass surveillance and free-face territories, areas where you have laws like the provision in the proposed EU AI Act, which bans the use of live biometrics in public places. In such places, anti-surveillance fashion will flourish. After all, facial recognition can be used retroactively on video feeds. Parents will fight to protect the right for children to be “biometric naiveâ€, which is to have none of their biometrics such as faceprint, voiceprint, or iris pattern scanned and stored by government agencies, schools, or religious institutions. New eyewear companies will offer lenses that distort the ability for cameras to easily capture your ocular biometric information, and pairs of glasses will come with prosthetic extensions to alter your nose and cheek shapes. 3D printing tools will be used to make at-home face prosthetics, though depending on where you are in the world, it may be outlawed. In a world where the face is the final frontier of privacy, glancing upon the unaltered visage of another will be a rare intimacy.</p></div></div></div>', 'The pushback against ubiquitous surveillance and targeted deepfaking has begun—but regulation may fail to keep up with AI advances.', 'https://media.wired.com/photos/65989cb8dad13b94621a525c/191:100/w_1280,c_limit/WW2024_1211573967_SECURITY_Joy-Buolamwini.jpg', '122', NULL, NULL, '', 'newsapi', NULL, NULL, '2024-01-18', '288', '0', '0', NULL, NULL, NULL),

He was also thrilled that so many of them are working on ideas while also cosplaying “with many smiles on their faces,â€ he explains. <br></br>“It is beautiful to see a big affirmation space like Perifacon.â€</p><p>The convention is not restricted to gaming and cosplaying, either.

Meanwhile, Perifacon delivers geek culture, love, and fun to all involved independent of their budget. Their main goal is accessibility.â€</p><p>Delgado believes that while Perifacon calls attention to social inequality, it also promotes artists from those marginalized communities and showcases their products to a public that wants them and can’t get them in any other way. Favela influence is everywhere in Brazilian art, culture, and sports.</p><p>“The favela is the powerhouse that people already know. However, brands and enterprises are still after the same profile of people that already have access to everything. We know this because of the lack of support to unfavored areas,â€ Ayrez explains.</p><p>Meanwhile, for the young people growing up in the favelas, the convention is an event to look forward to. “Perifacon is everything that the 12-year-old Eduardo dreamed of being part of, as he grew up being bullied for liking ‘weird’ things,â€ says Marques.</p><p>“My experiences outside the hood with people from other social classes showed me how prejudice operates in a systematic way, he says. “The simple fact that I come from the favela and I like comics fascinated the rich kids. My experiences as a nerd were marked by a series of contradictions, stereotypes, and conflicting images.

However, footfall on the High Street remains 10-20% below pre-Covid levels.</p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>But it\'s now recognised that online businesses can actually help the High Street, says Ms Berg. There is even a term popular in retail, she explains, which is \"O-2-O\" - online to offline.</p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>\"Everyone from the big giants like Amazon and Asos, down to much smaller independent businesses, are looking to open stores on the High Street, to engage with customers in a real-life setting, with a seamless experience.\"</p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>Pop-up shops provide that exposure to small, online businesses. </p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>The London Made Me pop-up shop was organised as part of the Mayor\'s Creative Enterprise Zones scheme, with the help of a social enterprise called Creative United.

She has transformed more than 25 empty retail spaces in cities including London, Brighton, Chelmsford and Manchester. </p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>Her latest one near Victoria station in central London is in a unit left vacant when tea retailer T2 closed all its UK stores. It\'s just enjoyed the busy Christmas season, but has been extended for another month at least.</p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>She fits her temporary shops out and sorts out issues like staffing. Commercial landlords will often pay reduced business rates if they take on a pop-up in an empty retail unit, which provides an extra incentive for them.</p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>She handpicks around 30 designers to display their wares in each shop and those businesses have raised more than £1.3m in revenue in the past six years, she says.</p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>\"It\'s given me the confidence to put out new products and do test runs,\" says Nephthys Foster, who sells original art prints in the Pop Up Club. She has more than 30,000 followers on Instagram, but this is her first experience in a shop.

These can include anything from traditional shop units in arcades, to outdoor market stalls, to small spaces within bigger shops - or even warehouses.</p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>The company Sook, founded in 2019, took a very different approach by building an empire of 13 dedicated pop-up spaces, with sites in major UK cities including London, Liverpool, Leeds and Edinburgh. </p></div><div data-component=\"text-block\"><p>It owned the long-term lease on each shop, but deliberately fitted each one out as a blank canvas, with digital screens on the walls and adaptable front signage. This meant that when a business \"popped in\", it could upload its own digital branding to customise it.

The series was created by David Benioff, D.B. Weiss (<em>Game of Thrones</em>), and Alexander Woo (<em>True Blood</em>). CES attendees also had the opportunity to participate in a <em>3 Body Problem</em> \"immersive experience,\" intended to transport them \"into the mysterious world of the series in a fun and experimental way.\"</p>\n<p><strong>(Some spoilers for the novel below.)</strong></p>\n<p>The novel began as serialized fiction in Science Fiction World in 2006 and received the Galaxy (Yinhe) Award for Chinese science fiction that same year. Liu published it as a standalone book in 2008. But it was Ken Liu\'s 2014 English translation for Tor Books—complete with informative footnotes to acquaint Western readers with the many references to Chinese history, particularly the <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_Revolution\">Cultural Revolution</a>—that rocketed <em>The Three-Body Problem</em> to international acclaim. Liu is also the author of two follow-up novels to complete the trilogy (<em>The Dark Forest</em> and <em>Death\'s End</em>), as well as <em>The Wandering Earth</em>—adapted into film in 2019—and <em>Ball Lightning</em>.</p>\n<p><em>The Three-Body Problem</em>\'s narrative is told in a nonlinear fashion, jumping between a young astrophysicist, Ye Wenjie, who witnesses her father being beaten to death by Red Guards during the Cultural Revolution, and Ye\'s return to Tsinghua University as an established professor many years later. During the earlier timeline, Ye figures out a means of sending an interstellar message to possible extraterrestrial civilizations and receives a response from a planet called Trisolaris. (As its name implies, the planet has three suns, which wreak havoc on Trilosolaris via unpredictable \"chaotic periods\"—hence the novel\'s title, which refers to a <a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-body_problem#:~:text=In%20physics%20and%20classical%20mechanics,Newton%27s%20law%20of%20universal%20gravitation.\">classic problem</a> in celestial mechanics.) Despite being warned that the aliens intend to invade and conquer Earth, Ye responds to the message and invites them to do so, disillusioned by the state of the world.</p>                                            \n                                                        \n<p>The Trisolarians depart on their 450-year journey. Meanwhile, there have been complicated developments on Earth as people learn of the pending arrival of aliens. There is a secret society of scientists, political leaders, and other scholars who share Ye\'s sentiment about the state of humanity, which, over time, splits into three competing factions. Some members continue to support the full destruction of humanity; others plan to help the aliens in exchange for the survival of themselves and their descendants; and still, others regularly play a VR game called <em>Three-Body</em> and attempt to find a computational solution to the actual three-body problem that plagues Trisolaris. That\'s a recipe for tension and conflict, which play out in various ways throughout the novel.</p>\n<p>The Netflix series is the first large-scale project by Benioff and Weiss since they signed a major deal with the streaming platform in 2019.
