一 | Condolences have continued to pour in following the passing of veteran producer M Saravanan, widely known as AVM Saravanan of AVM Studios. Revered as a doyen of Tamil cinema, Saravanan breathed his last on Thursday at the age of eighty-six due to age related ailments. His death has left a profound void in an industry he helped shape for decades.A Studio Mourns Its Guiding PresenceFrom morning, AVM Studios saw a steady flow of celebrities arriving to pay their final respects. His mortal remains were placed on the premises, a place synonymous with cinematic milestones, and one that now also holds the weight of collective grief and gratitude. Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin, veteran actor Sivakumar, Suriya, Rajinikanth, Vishal, and directors Vasanth and Parthiban were among those who placed garlands and offered condolences to his family.A visibly moved Sivakumar revisited the earliest chapter of his journey, recalling the moment Saravanan gave him the name by which the world would come to know him. “Saravanan introduced me to cinema in 1965 and changed my name to Sivakumar. To remember him and his good deed, I kept his name for my son Suriya as Saravanan,” he said. He also remembered a heartbreak from his early years, when a significant portion of his scene was cut from a film. “I remember crying in front of Manikkam theatre when my 500-foot-scene (in reels) was cut off from a film. AVM Saravanan consoled me, encouraged me to continue pushing through and said I would soon get a great role in films.”Actor Vishal joined the long line of voices honouring the producer’s influence. He recalled that AVM Studios had been a part of every phase of his life in cinema. “I remember meeting you as a kid, as an assistant director, as an actor, as a producer ever since I entered AVM studios which was a learning ground for me to be what I am today in the film industry.” Reflecting on Saravanan’s influence on the profession itself, he added, “Every producer used to look up to you for your sincerity and your dedication. I always wanted you and your production house to continue making great films but today we have lost another great film personality in Indian film industry. Your memories will always linger in our minds and your films will always be a learning ground for aspiring filmmakers.” தமிழ்த் திரையுலகின் முதுபெரும் ஆளுமைகளில் ஒருவரும் வரலாற்றுப் புகழ்மிக்க AVM நிறுவனத்தின் முகமாகவும் திகழ்ந்த ஏவி.எம். சரவணன் அவர்கள் மறைவெய்திய செய்தியறிந்து மிகவும் வருந்தினேன். தமிழ்த்திரையுலகின் பாதையைத் தீர்மானித்து உருவாக்கியதில் ஏவி.எம். நிறுவனத்தின் பங்கு எவ்வளவு… pic.twitter.com/pzB90zbDYU — M.K.Stalin - தமிழ்நாட்டை தலைகுனிய விடமாட்டேன் (@mkstalin) December 4, 2025 Filmmaker Parthiban shared his own heartfelt tribute, calling Saravanan the embodiment of humility and discipline. “Even when he folds his hands, when we look at him, we become humble and fearful looking at him. Until his name is here in the Earth, we won't lose the respect we have for him.” Connecting him to the legacy of AV Meiyappan, he said, “He is considered as a God for artists like us. Saravanan is also like that for us.” Parthiban recalled writing to him shortly after the release of Murattu Kaalai in 1980, believing Meiyappan’s spirit could finally rest with pride. He added that while the void Saravanan leaves cannot be replaced, he has spoken to the family about ensuring the AVM legacy continues through new productions.A Legacy Remembered by the Artists He RaisedThe Tamil film fraternity woke up on Thursday to the news of his passing, prompting tributes from all corners. Chief Minister MK Stalin shared a message on his official X handle, writing, “I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of AVM Saravanan, one of the senior-most stalwarts of Tamil cinema and the iconic face of the historic AVM Studios. Just as AVM played a monumental role in shaping the direction of Tamil cinema, Mr Saravanan’s contribution to shaping the direction of AVM itself was equally immense.”Rajinikanth, who has a long association with the AVM banner, visited the studio and later addressed the media. Reflecting on their collaborations, he said, “He loved me a lot and was a well-wisher of mine. He stood by me when I went through difficult times. I have acted in nine films in AVM. All nine films emerged as big hits. It won't be an exaggeration if I say that the main reason for them becoming hits was Saravanan sir.” He described him as “a true example of a gentleman,” recalling his characteristic white attire and pure-hearted nature. Rajinikanth also noted how often Saravanan referred to his father affectionately as “Appachi.” உங்கள் பெயர் சொல்லும் பிள்ளைகளில் ஒருவனின் அஞ்சலி : pic.twitter.com/XWNx731BJc — Kamal Haasan (@ikamalhaasan) December 4, 2025 Kamal Haasan, whose association with AVM goes back to his childhood role in Kalathur Kannamma, shared a video message remembering the bond he shared with the producer. “The relationship I had with Thiru. AVM Saravanan is like the bond I shared with my brothers, Chandra Haasan and Charuhasan,” he said. He spoke of his early uncertainty about how to address the elders at the studio, and how, as he grew older, he understood the depth of respect they deserved. “Those confusions went away after I crossed 20 because I realised then that I should hold them with the same level of respect that I showed my father.” He ended by saying he shared in the grief of Saravanan’s family, especially MS Guhan.A Farewell Etched in Film HistoryFrom actors who found their names through him to superstars whose biggest hits arose from his banner, Saravanan’s imprint runs deep through Tamil cinema. AVM Studios continues to stand as a physical symbol of his legacy, but the true monument to his life lies in the careers he nurtured, the values he upheld, and the generations he shaped through quiet conviction.Also Read: PHOTOS: Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol Inaugurate DDLJ-inspired Statue in Leicester。

奥特曼凤凰网科技讯 北京时间8月24日,据《商业内幕》报道,OpenAI CEO萨姆·奥特曼(Sam Altman)表示,他担心有朝一日AI会被少数几家公司、模型或个人所掌控,使得绝大多数消费者在技术如何塑造世界方面失去话语权。奥特曼在周日播出的戴维·森拉(David Senra)播客节目中表示:“正确的做法是,让人们牢牢掌控未来。社会和模型将共同演化。”奥特曼表示,他担心的另一种可能性是AI摆脱人类控制者的束缚。矛盾的是,他认为,对后一种可能性的恐惧可能会导致前一种可能性成为现实。“有很多人对于这些风险的严重程度感到非常紧张,并被这种担忧深深影响,并觉得自己有必要保护世界,”他说,“比如,他们会认为:我们应该牺牲大量自由,以换取安全。”奥特曼很可能是在暗指Anthropic CEO达里奥·阿莫代伊(Dario Amodei)。阿莫代伊曾在播客、文章和公司博客中多次警告AI快速发展所带来的危险。他在6月的一篇文章中写道,该公司的新Mythos模型对网络安全、金融行业、关键基础设施和国家安全构成了“非常现实的风险”。阿莫代伊利用这些警告,呼吁政府在AI监管中发挥更大的作用。在奥特曼看来,这可能是在“用自由换取安全”。Anthropic也是上个月唯一一家未签署支持开放权重模型公开信的主流AI公司。

二 | 开放权重模型允许开发者在自己基础设施上共享、下载、修改和部署AI模型。中国已积极拥抱开放权重模型,这使得其能够以极低的成本跟上硅谷的发展步伐。美国国内的一些力量,包括英伟达、Meta和微软,则认为美国也需要采取同样的做法,否则就有可能在AI竞赛中将阵地拱手让给竞争对手。

三 | 尽管OpenAI尚未发布其前沿模型的源代码,但该公司去年确实发布了两款开放权重模型:gpt-oss-120b和gpt-oss-20b。奥特曼还在播客中表示,美国的AI领导者们未能向公众展示这项技术如何让人们对自己的生活拥有更大的自主权。“我们即将迎来有史以来规模最大的创业热潮,届时会有更多人创办小型企业,”他说,“我认为AI正在赋予人们这种能力。”(作者/箫雨)更多一手新闻,欢迎下载凤凰新闻客户端订阅凤凰网科技。
