  • The cast of “Stranger Things” attended the show’s season five premiere in Los Angeles on Thursday.
  • Millie Bobby Brown, Sadie Sink, and Winona Ryder wore standout designer pieces at the event.
  • Joe Keery, David Harbour, and Finn Wolfhard stood out in statement suits.

It’s the end of an era.

The final season of “Stranger Things” will be released on Netflix in volumes between November and December this year.

The cast kicked off celebrations with a massive premiere in Los Angeles on Thursday night, during which actors like Millie Bobby Brown showed off their stunning fashion.

Here’s what each actor wore at the event.

Millie Bobby Brown’s lace gown looked like it came from the Upside Down.

Her see-through Rodarte dress had a feathered neckline and hip panels, off-the-shoulder straps, and a pleated skirt that reached the floor.

Its webbed design mirrored the vines seen throughout the Upside Down, while her diamond jewelry added a touch of Hollywood glamour.

David Harbour arrived in a pinstripe suit and matching tie.

He wore the set with a white button-down shirt, black dress shoes, and a white pocket square.

Sadie Sink took a completely different route than her costars.

She wore a white Prada outfit that consisted of a satin bralette and a matching high-waisted skirt, both of which were embellished with crystals.

She skipped jewelry last night, but wore the outfit with a layered blowout hairstyle.

Winona Ryder opted for a gothic look at the premiere.

Yohji Yamamoto designed her two-piece set, which comprised a floor-length pleated skirt and a long-sleeved top. The latter was fitted and embellished with a row of buttons down the front.

She wore the ensemble with minimal makeup and a wavy hairstyle.

Maya Hawke dressed much differently than her character Robin would.

She wore a green, sleeveless Prada gown with a sheer bodice and a pleated skirt that pooled around her feet.

Beneath it, Hawke donned a black bralette and a high-waisted skirt, which perfectly contrasted the feminine outer piece.

Finn Wolfhard’s suit matched the show’s red and black logo.

His three-piece set was classic, featuring trousers, a button-up shirt, and a blazer — all in black.

It stood out, though, thanks to patches of red, black, and yellow plaid, which were attached at the knees, sleeves, and chest.

Natalia Dyer stunned in an ombré gown.

Her Vivienne Westwood dress was sleeveless with black ties at the shoulder and hip.

It was also gathered at the waist, which created a slit in its long, two-toned skirt. The latter extended into a train.

Joe Keery debuted a new hairstyle on the red carpet.

The actor paired his blonde, spikey hairstyle with a Gucci ensemble.

He wore a tight-fitting T-shirt with a cropped leather jacket, shining dress shoes, and black trousers adorned with the designer’s signature horsebit hardware.

Charlie Heaton chose a retro-looking suit and tie.

The tan ensemble was decorated with a checked print and black buttons. His trousers were tailored to him perfectly, while his blazer was just the right amount of oversized.

Heaton wore the outfit with a navy-blue tie and a thin leather belt.

Caleb McLaughlin paired his dark suit with standout accessories.

Wales Bonner designed his suit, which appeared to be military-inspired. It included trousers with red stripes down each leg, and a jacket with a high neckline, gold buttons, and multiple pockets.

McLaughlin made the outfit his own, though, by adding numerous diamond accessories. He wore two brooches, three rings, and a Hublot Spirit of Big Bang watch, which now sells for around $30,000.

Cara Buono made a statement in leather.

She wore a strapless, red top with a peplum waist atop a mermaid-style skirt. Both had uneven edges, making them appear torn and rough.

She also wore matching pointed boots.

Jamie Campbell Bower wore a layered look.

His all-black ensemble included a satin shirt beneath an oversized blazer. The latter had “I saw your wishes and knew them to be true” embroidered across the wrist.

The outfit also featured a pleated leather skirt with a fabric lining, black tights, and leather boots.

Priah Ferguson donned a daring two-piece.

Her outfit included a mid-rise, floor-length skirt with red stripes and beaded fringe, as well as a bralette top made from mesh and velvet swirls.

She wore it with a bob hairstyle and simple jewelry.

Gaten Matarazzo kept things cool in a gray suit.

His suit consisted of trousers, a blazer, a matching vest, and a black-button-up shirt.

To complete the look, he chose black dress shoes, a classic belt, and black-rimmed glasses.

Noah Schnapp utilized accessories to add a fashion-forward edge to his classic outfit.

Balmain designed his pinstripe suit, which he wore with a white button-up shirt and a satin tie.

It was his accessories, though, that stood out. He wore a black belt with gold hardware around his waist and a Hublot Classic Fusion watch that sells for around $8,700.

Elon Musk says the AI ‘supersonic tsunami’ will eliminate desk jobs ‘at a very rapid pace’

  • Elon Musk says AI will continue to replace desk jobs “at an accelerated rate.”
  • The xAI CEO told Joe Rogan, “There will be a lot of trauma and disruption along the way.”
  • Musk is still bullish on the future. In one scenario, he envisions a universal high income.

Elon Musk said AI will make desk jobs now feel like when workers used to make calculations by hand before the computer age.

“I think there will be actually a high demand for jobs, but not necessarily the same jobs,” Musk recently told Joe Rogan on the comedian’s podcast. “So I mean this is actually, this process has been happening throughout modern history.”

The xAI CEO says AI is already replacing and will continue to replace desk jobs that are digitally centric, “at an accelerated rate.”

“It’s just happening,” Musk said. “Like I said, AI is the supersonic tsunami.”

Not all jobs are immediately threatened. Musk, like most economists who have studied the topic, said that physical labor jobs and careers that require some element of human interaction are likely to stay around.

“Anything that’s physically moving atoms, like cooking food or farming, anything that’s physical, those jobs will exist for a much longer time,” he said. “But anything that is digital, which is just someone at a computer doing something, AI is going to take over those jobs like lightning.”

Musk is mostly bullish on the long-term benefits of artificial intelligence, provided a Terminator-esque scenario doesn’t come to fruition.

In a much more “benign scenario,” Musk said, wealth will be accessible to virtually everyone, leading to a “universal high income.”

“Ultimately, working will be optional because you’ll have robots plus AI,” he said. “And we’ll have, in a benign scenario, universal high income, not just universal basic income. Universal high income, meaning anyone can have any products or services that they want, but there will be a lot of trauma and disruption along the way.”

Musk’s final point about “trauma and disruption” lies at the heart of the debate roiling AI and tech.

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said earlier this year that AI could eliminate up to half of entry-level white collar jobs within the next five years. Other tech leaders, including OpenAI’s Sam Altman, have questioned Amodei’s outlook.

Musk said that his ideal version of the future “kind of sounds like heaven.” Rogan said that without worrying about work, people can now spend their days doing whatever they want.

“Like I said, not every path is a good path,” Musk said. “But I think if we push it in the direction of maximally truth-seeking and curious, then I think AI will want to take care of humanity and foster humanity because we’re interesting.”
