![]() ![]() Murphy’s leading man credentials are not in doubt, with a résumé that includes Peaky Blinders and critical hits such as Sunshine. Impressive … Cillian Murphy as Oppenheimer. As with Oppenheimer, has the technology community left it too late to address the potential consequences of their achievements? Cillian Murphy: best man for the job? ![]() It is worth noting that signatories of a letter calling for a six-month pause in AI development this year included Elon Musk, an initial backer of ChatGPT developer OpenAI, Yoshua Bengio, a winner of the Turing prize (or “Nobel prize for computing”) and the co-founder of Apple, Steve Wozniak. Nolan told the Guardian that there are “very strong parallels” between Oppenheimer and the AI community. (I should note here that, in real life, Oppenheimer consulted a different physicist, Arthur Compton, about his apocalyptic concerns.) There are obvious parallels with the modern day and artificial intelligence, whose creators are now calling for development of the technology to be tamed. The excellent biography on which the film is based, American Prometheus by Kai Bird and Martin J Sherwin, goes into great detail about Oppenheimer’s regret over, and attempts to rein in, the monster he created. It is a devastating moment and is the emotive payload of the film, followed by a montage featuring rows of nuclear missiles, vapour trails of projectiles puncturing the sky, the planet being consumed by fire – and Oppenheimer’s stricken face. Einstein, played by Tom Conti, says: “What of it?” To which Oppenheimer replies: “I believe we did.” The film ends with a conversation between the godfather of the nuclear bomb and Albert Einstein in 1947, in which Oppenheimer (Cillian Murphy) reminds the German-born theoretical physicist that he had once approached him about fears that his project would “destroy the entire world”. Photograph: Melinda Sue Gordon/Universal Pictures The be-chunked ice cream finally passes through a special blender attachment, which mixes the chunks throughout the stream of ice cream, ensuring an even ”chunk dispersal”.A devastating moment … Tom Conti as Albert Einstein and Cillian Murphy as J Robert Oppenheimer. As the star-wheel turns, it pushes the chunks into the stream of frozen ice cream flowing through the feeder. Chunks are top-loaded into the Chunk Feeder hopper, at the bottom of which an auger regulates a steady chunk-flow into a star-wheel. Quite simply, the Chunk Feeder “feeds” chunks into the ice cream stream. That’s why the machine that “feeds” chunks into our ice cream is actually called a “Fruit Feeder.” But considering how many chunky things we have to feed the feeder with, from gobs of chocolate chip cookie dough to fudgy brownies, to cookies and candies and nuts and everything in between…in addition to fruit…we affectionately renamed it! The cooled mix is then pumped over to the Tank Room (a 36-degree room with six 5000-gallon mix storage tanks), where it’s held for 4 to 8 hours to allow the ingredients to intermingle (it's kinda like simmering a sauce or allowing a fine wine to breathe - we just don't want to rush it!).Īfter freezing the mix to a nice and creamy 22 degrees, we have a choice: if we’re just making chunkless flavors, like Vanilla or Chocolate, the ice cream is pumped directly to the pint-filling machinery, but if we’re making chunky flavors, the ice cream takes a turn through the Chunk Feeder.īack in the days before Ben & Jerry’s, the only thing ice cream manufacturers ever put into their ice cream was fruit. ![]() The Homogenizer works like a piston pump: mix is drawn into the cylinder on the downstroke, and on the upstroke, it's forced out at a very high pressure. per square inch) through a very small opening so that the fat particles from the cream are so finely divided and emulsified that they do not separate from the rest of the mix. There, the mix is forced under high pressure (about 2000 lbs. Hot water (182 degrees) flows on one side of the plates, and as cold mix (36 degrees) is pumped through on the other side of the plates, heat from the hot water is transferred to the mix, heating it to 180 degrees.īefore the mix has a chance to cool down, it enters the Homogenizer. The Pasteurizer is made up of a series of very thin stainless steel plates. Pasteurization is the process of heating the mix in order to kill harmful bacteria. After the ice cream mix is blended, it’s ready to be pasteurized and homogenized. ![]()
