At some point – pretty soon I suspect – we won’t even find AI related lawsuits (like this recent one) newsworthy.
They’ll just be common place.
Like most other legal matters involving copyright.
A note to myself really… So many books, videos and social post threads focus on the rare exceptions (in business, wealth, fitness, etc) and pull out takeaways to apply in general. Seems a sure path to failure – since if it were really just a few principles that made the difference, then they wouldn’t be the exceptions. So, don’t study the edge cases as your playbook for...
There’s always outrage over Elon’s latest ‘idea’ for Twitter/X, and his recent $1 charge for users to post is no exception. Not that I think it’s a particularly good idea, but I’m surprised at how much pushback paying for something gets, usually along the lines of: “I will never pay a subscription just to use a social platform – it’s outrageous they...

The cold email would include a link to a ‘Presentation Deck’ explaining the brief and the...
Regarding GitHub Copilot, as per Paul Thurrott’s article which is getting shared around (probably because the original report from the Wall Street Journal and we can’t share that (it’s behind a paywall): GitHub Copilot costs $10 per month to subscribe to as an individual developer ($19 per month for businesses) But costs Microsoft around $30 per month to provide (via Open AI...
As of this week (the start of a new term) mobile phones can’t be used during the school day by students in NSW. This applies to high schools (primary schools already had this in place). This applies to public schools (ie not private schools). From the government announcement: “The ban is one of a number of measures the Government is putting in place to improve the classroom...
Wow, gotta hand it to criminals, they sure are imaginative… makes me wonder why the don’t just go legit, with innovative thinking like this they could be very successful… Essentially the process is: Gang related rappers sets up song on Spotify Gang pays 3rd party companies for fake streams of those Spotify songs (ie similar to how you can pay 3rd party companies for fake Likes...
This is one of those dumb ‘tips’ that is actually something you should consider – to get around HubSpot’s hard bounce rate rules. My thanks to Adam at FGM for highlighting this one to me.
