Simone Biles draws A-list celebrity crowd at Paris Olympics

Brandon Livesay
28 July 2024

As Simone Biles eyes up a chance at another Olympic medal, a row of A-list celebrities are watching on.

The seven-time medallist is one of the most high profile athletes at the Olympics, and her stunning performance in the artistic gymnastics on Sunday drew celebrities like it was Paris Fashion Week.

Lady Gaga, Ariana Grande, Tom Cruise, American Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour and Snoop Dogg were in the crowd to watch the American gymnast.

Biles is considered by many to be the GOAT of women’s gymnastics (the greatest of all time).

She was forced to pull out of several events at the Tokyo Olympics after suffering a disorientating mental block, and many wondered if she would compete again. Her return to the Olympics stage is a major drawcard, and Biles rewarded the crowd with a dazzling performance.

Photographer Wins AI Image Contest with Real Picture,
Then Gets Disqualified

by Alex Greenberger

Enunciado 4654366-1

A photographer submitted a real photograph to a contest for AI-generated pictures, and won the competition, as the judges believed it to be digitally made. Upon learning that the photographer, Miles Astray, had not used AI to produce the piece, he was disqualified.

Astray’s winning picture, a photograph of a flamingo whose head appears to be bent into its body, took first place in the AI category of the People’s Vote Award at the 1839 Photography Awards.

Astray still treated the debacle as a victory, writing, “I hope that winning over both the jury and the public with this picture, was not just a win for me but for many creatives out there”.

Global literacy today

 

Of the world population older than 15 years, the majority are literate, that is to say, can read and write.

 

This map shows how literacy rates vary around the world. In many countries, more than 95% have basic literacy skills. Literacy skills of the majority of the population are a modern achievement. Globally, however, large inequalities continue. In some countries in sub-Saharan Africa, less than 1-in-3 adults (aged over 15 years) are able to both read and write.

Historical change in literacy

 

While the earliest forms of written communication date back to about 3,500–3,000 before the Christian era, for centuries literacy remained a very restricted technology closely associated with the exercise of power. It was only during the Middle Ages that book production started growing, and literacy among the general population slowly started becoming important in the Western World. However, it took centuries for universal literacy to happen. It was only in the 19th and 20th centuries that rates of literacy approached universality in early-industrialized countries.
