Dystopian Literature: Artificial Intelligence Discrimination
Dr. Aji Septiaji, M.Pd. - Universitas Majalengka, Indonesia. Talking about literature and artificial intelligence is a tradition for the modern future because the process involves sophistication, convenience, and popularity. The presence of artificial intelligence technology is a sign that human civilization is growing. However, do all activities need to be connected through artificial intelligence technology devices? What is the biggest impact if everything depends on artificial intelligence? Through this essay, readers can gain another perspective on artificial intelligence both from the problems, solutions, and consequences because all things if always dependent on one object then there will be risks that must be accepted.

New York City – April 11, 2025
Thursday afternoon, tragedy struck over the Hudson River when a sightseeing helicopter carrying five tourists and a pilot sank near New York City, killing all six people on board. According to initial reports from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and local authorities, the helicopter, operated by Liberty Air Tours, was on a routine aerial tour of New York City when it experienced a sudden mechanical failure. Around 3:20 p.m., witnesses reported that the aircraft began to spin out of control before collapsing into the river.Within minutes, emergency personnel from the Coast Guard, the NYPD, and the FDNY arrived at the scene. Divers recovered the bodies from the submerged wreckage shortly afterward. Officials confirmed that each of the six victims had passed away on the spot. New York City Mayor Rachel Whitmore expressed condolences to the families during a press briefing Thursday evening. She stated, "Our hearts go out to the families whose loved ones lost loved ones in this terrible accident." "We are collaborating closely with federal investigators to find out what went wrong and prevent this from happening again," The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) has launched a full investigation into the crash. Officials emphasize that no conclusions have been reached, but preliminary analysis suggests a possible engine failure or rotor failure. The Eurocopter AS350 helicopter, which was commonly used for urban tour operations, was said to have passed its most recent inspection just two weeks ago. The victims have not yet been officially identified, but sources say they included tourists from three different countries, highlighting the international appeal of helicopter tours over New York’s iconic skyline.

The man from Gaza
**The Man from Gaza** In the bustling streets of Gaza City, amid the sound of honking cars and the chatter of vendors selling fresh pomegranate juice and fragrant spices, there lived a man named Youssef. He was not unlike many others in his neighborhood, yet his journey through life was marked by extraordinary resilience and hope in the face of adversity. Youssef was a storyteller, a weaver of tales that spanned generations, connecting the past to the present in a tapestry of shared experiences.

A Movie that made cry everyone
The Grave of the Fireflies artbreak * Grave of the Fireflies *( 1988), directed by Isao Takahata and produced by Studio Ghibli, stands as one of the most poignant and ruinousanti-war flicks ever made. Though it's an animated film, it transcends the boundaries of its medium to present a story that's harrowing, deeply emotional, and profoundly mortal. Set in Japan during the final months of World War II, the movie follows the woeful story of two siblings, Seita and his youngish family Setsuko, as they struggle to survive amidst the desolation caused by American firebombing raids.

The Battle. AI-Generated.
It started not with sword or flame, But whispers low and ghosts of shame, A quiet war, an unseen tide, That raged beneath, where fears abide.

Snow White 2025: Balancing Woke Themes with Classic Storytelling – A Review
The 2025 version of Snow White, to be fair, Disney's live-action remake of its first animated picture, has received mixed reviews from the audience. The remake tried its best to be accepted as a feminist film and one that promotes woman empowerment while balancing the old and the new. I watched the film with a grain of salt and kept my logical mind aside—at least, I tried to! However, I could only fathom the discourse of its nurture to a certain extent. In this review, I go deeper into the intricacies of empowerment, fantasy and the performances the film encompasses.
