This is an interesting article written from the perspective of Intelectual Property holders in the music industry who are analyzing the case between Reuters (owns Westlaw) and Ross (company who used Westlaw to train an AI). Fair Use is very complex. www.musicbusinessworldwide.com/using-copyri...

"The source code for the new Department of Government Efficiency’s “official US government website” points to X as its primary source of authority, while sharing links to the site sends users to X dot com." www.wired.com/story/doge-w...

On my phone, this headline comes up as: "House Democrats try, and fail, to ..." See the full headline below. New headline: Republicans block Musk subpoena by Democrats Both are accurate but blame different people. www.politico.com/live-updates...

"DeepSeek might not be as disruptive as claimed, firm reportedly has 50,000 Nvidia GPUs and spent $1.6 billion on buildouts" www.tomshardware.com/tech-industr...

Musk used Paypal as a launch vehicle for SpaceX and Tesla. Paypal makes $ from transaction fees. I think Musk is looking to position himself to get contracts for becoming the govt's payment system. Taking a transaction fee off every gov transaction is huge money. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

It seems so dumb that there is a strike zone box on TV for everyone to see except the home plate umpire, right? This article talks about the challenges of implementing an automated system to call balls and strikes. Automating anything is deceptively hard to do! www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/...

AWESOME!!!

So we are doing this now? www.stocktitan.net/news/DJT/tru...

New headline: "They don't have the money": Neither does Musk. www.salon.com/2025/01/22/t...

Good read here, I found this section interesting: "The Labor Share of GDP Has Been Constant For 200+ Years"

Wedges can be inserted! Epic CEO Tim Sweeney says tech leaders are 'pretending to be Republicans' to gain favor with Trump, skirt antitrust laws, and ultimately 'rip off consumers and crush competitors' www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

To all those who have followed me through BlueSky or Hal's Friday shows, happy holidays to you and yours! Thank you for all of your support and kind words.

We are a different country post COVID, keep your wits about you! www.theatlantic.com/health/archi...

Correcting this headline is easy. Just remove the word potential. fortune.com/2024/12/17/t...

Interesting read. Summary: The federal workforce has barely grown since the 1960s and the billionaire saying we should fire a bunch of them to save money gets billions in government contracts. www.cnn.com/2024/12/14/p...

Love it!

AI for the win! my son needed help with 8th grade algebra homework. I couldn't remember how to distribute the powers. Phone pic of his screen, upload to ChatGPT, asked it to explain how to solve the problem. It read the image and gave me instructions for how to solve and the right answer.

My headline generator for this article: New Headline: Trump's Health Appointments Will Erode Public Trust in Vaccines and Evidence-Based Medicine

AOC has been of the most on track in messaging of our representatives. Fires need oxygen, take the oxygen away and the fire goes out on its own. No need to cancel, just ignore!!

SWEET!

This video shows how GenAI can be used to augment your creations verse treating it like a tool that generates everything from scratch. He shows how to combine sketching, 3D models, masking, and layering to control the output. www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlSv...

Please, please, please wait for things to happen before predicting outcomes. Spend energy telling people not paying attention the plan. 25% Tariffs. Then wait to connect actual outcomes to what they actually do. Everything in between works against the goal.

For anyone who downloaded their twitter - X data I distilled the tweet text from a couple accounts we support, uploaded to a ChatGPT session, probed it with questions to analyze language and patterns. It wasn't too hard to do and was very insightful. Message me if interested in learning how.

One of my favorite YouTubers to follow. He packs a lot of really technical and creative ways of thinking into entertaining development projects. He embodies the Fail Fast approach! www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0Kj...

An AI generated music video. -ComfyUi for still images (Stable Diffusion) -Flux Lora (to focus the style of the images) -RunwayML (makes still image move) -After Effects to manually cut together -I think the author created the music without AI, but not sure www.youtube.com/watch?v=lBi1...

Hell Yeah!!

When I was a kid, we would go to the EAA fly-in at Oshkosh every year with flight line access. One year they had the Concord and an SR71 parked nose to nose on the tarmac. Both flew each day in the airshow. I wish I could find a picture! Badass Plane! getpocket.com/explore/item...

This is a really cool feature in the new Unreal Engine release. Audio is translated to facial animation and then can run real time. The mouth movements are really good. Facial expressions are there too, but more work needs to be done there. #UE5 www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Ku2...

Bluesky explained in 60 seconds!

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me. I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

Convergence of Electric Vehicles, New Manufacturing Tech, and Innovation with these new tools. I love watching all types of racing for the technology side of things. There are some really interesting things happening in Motorcycles that will filter up to cars. newatlas.com/motorcycles/...
