In case you thought Jimmy Kimmel would pull punches on Trump in the face of threats from federal officials and still-boycotting affiliates – he’s not. The “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host did a 15-minute monologue on Wednesday night, nearly all of it focused on roasting the president, calling him, among other things, a bully in the style of Biff from “Back to the Future.” After acknowledging that the show was being taped for “not all of the country,” Kimmel kicked off his rapid-fire roast by noting that among all the people he heard from during his four-day suspension, one “special friend” stood out: “The Mad Red Hatter.” Kimmel pulled up many of Trump’s Truth Social posts, including the one that said “I can’t believe ABC fake news gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back.” “You can’t believe they gave me my job back?

A retrospective celebrating half a century of Giorgio Armani’s work will kick off at a Milan museum on Wednesday, showcasing more than 100 creations including rare dresses and suits that defined the legendary Italian designer’s understated elegance.

The exhibition, which starts during Milan Fashion Week and runs through January, was curated with Armani’s direct input and coincides with the label’s 50th anniversary. ARMANI’S LAST COLLECTION WILL HIT THE RUNWAY It sets the tone for a week that blends mourning with celebration, culminating in a runway show of Armani’s spring collection on Sunday evening at the Brera art museum, where the exhibition is also being held. Garments including striking blue and red dresses are set among Italian art masterpieces from the Middle Ages to the 19th century. “Armani’s aesthetic rigor is also an ethical

A lifelong fan of “Tomb Raider,” French gamer Romain Bos was on tenterhooks when an update of the popular video game went online in August. But his excitement quickly turned to anger. The gamer’s ears — and those of other “Tomb Raider” fans — picked up something amiss with the French-language voice of Lara Croft, the game’s protagonist. It sounded robotic, lifeless even — shorn of the warmth, grace and believability that French voice actor Françoise Cadol has given to Croft since she started playing the character in 1996. Gamers and Cadol herself came to the same conclusion: A machine had cloned her voice and replaced her. “It’s pathetic,” says Cadol, who straight away called her lawyer. “My voice belongs to me. You have no right to do that.” “It was absolutely scandalous,” says Bos. “It was artificial intelligence.” AI encroaching ‘everywhere’ Aspyr, the game developer based in Austin, Texas, didn’t respond to e-mailed questions from The Associated Press. But it acknowledged in a post last week on its websit
