Tue 20 Dec: J6 Class I - Guest Gavin - Set Up - Tech Islands - Q's4Elon - Stone Cold - Eleven Letters: The J6 operation began long before the actual event. Tech firms and secret recordings. Spy masters from the country unnamed. Twitter stooges and state governors. How do they actually make money? Lot's of questions for the new owner. Data is sold to foreign governments. Stone, Bergy, consulting firms, old money and a long history. Foreign operations are on the resume. There were big names in the firm. Antifa is a coordinated operation. Social media reporting is not news. There is actual footage to be used as proof. Deep state humans and why they always know better. Is it still possible to see the good in humanity? Committee blather to protect a narrative. False assumptions, fake facts and blatant lies. And they call this an investigative report. The J6 truth parade is still possible.

The legal fight for the future of artificial intelligence: The New York Times is suing the creator of ChatGPT, an artificial intelligence bot the Times alleges was trained on millions of its copyrighted articles. It's not the only such lawsuit, but it is the biggest. What this all boils down to are questions that will determine the future of a technology that has the potential to change the world, for good or ill. How different are a human and a computer, when each is learning from example? As machines become able to mimic the creative endeavours humans have mastered, what compensation is owed to the creators they learned from? And can bots like ChatGPT even survive without free access to a world of copyrighted material?
