1/4 Well look at that. Open Ai and Google outright reject “Opt-Out” models, hell they even reject basic transparency requirements. AI companies demand they get everything, including our Intellectual Property, for free, and without anyone ever being able to tell the companies no.

Pinterest, an app where most of the content is unauthorized reposts of other people’s copyright protected work, is developing generative AI and they think offering a hidden OPT-OUT toggle is good enough? “Use your data […]” Whose data??

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, just won the Oscar for Best Documentary. It can't get a distributor in the US. Which tells you everything about censorship in the US.

1/8 Fun update on that GenAi Christies show. They lie quite a bit about their own show. Here’s a few: Lie #1 Christies says work on the show comes from data which was trained on participants own inputs in this article below: techcrunch.com/2025/02/08/c... This just isn’t the case.
"The artists represented in this sale all have strong, existing multidisciplinary art practices, some recognized in leading museum collections," said a Christie's spokesperson. "The works in this auction are using artificial intelligence to enhance their bodies of work and in most cases, Al is being employed in a controlled manner, with data trained on the artists' own inputs." Says Christies

My cartoon for this week’s @newscientist.bsky.social
Panel 1.

A quote in a starry sky:

“We are all in the gutter but some of us are looking at the stars. - Oscar Wilde”

Below, people are lying in the gutter. One is looking through a telescope.

Panel 2.

“Guys, astronomy is amazing.” Says the figure with a telescope  ”You should all give it a try.” To which others reply “Sure. Why not?”.

Panel 3.

Now the quote reads:

“We are all in the gutter but we are looking at the stars.”

All the people are looking through telescopes.

Panel 4.

“This is great! Apart from being in the gutter.” Says one of the people. Another replies ”Let’s go to the observatory!” and leads the way.

Panel 5.

The quote now reads:

“We are all looking at the stars but some of us are in the gutter.”

Everyone is in the observatory except two figures who lie in the gutter looking up through their telescopes.

Panel 6.

The original telescope bearer leans out of the window and asks “Why are you guys still in the gutter?” and they reply “We don’t like too much change”.
