there's a magpie around our house that has an impressive repertoire of bleeps, bloops and dog barks, but it also has a supernatural ability to detect me creeping towards the screen door with my phone set to record

They do realise it is a tiny subset of users that actually produce content, right? Like, YouTube already has age restrictions for uploading video but you won't be able to even have an account now.

artificialintelligenceeeAustralia has just made a historic move for artists, declaring that creative works can no longer be used to train AI without the creator’s explicit consent.The Albanese government rejected a proposed Text and Data Mining (TDM) exception that would have allowed companies to scrape copyrighted material freely, stating that art, music, and writing are not raw materials for algorithms.This decision puts the rights of creators ahead of automation, recognizing that behind every dataset lies years of craft, memory, and culture that deserve protection and acknowledgment.It marks one of the first clear global stands where a nation has chosen to value human expression as something more than data for machines to learn from.Follow us (👉@artificialintelligenceee) for everything latest from the AI world.Source: ABC News

Folds: If we’ve been told our whole lives that we can’t spend money on the arts because they’re not important—then why was taking over the Kennedy Center and the arts the first thing they did? It is extremely important. It’s the bedrock of self-expression.

That's what I've been thinking when I hear people say they have been "illegally fired". In that case can't you just keep coming in to work until someone with the legal right to fire you backs them up? If it doesn't work that way, can anyone just "illegally fire" anyone, say Trump, or at least Musk?
