“At today’s SAG-AFTRA strike announcement, the AI proposal put forth by the the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers was aired out for the first time, and it was said to include taking scans of background actors for use not only in a single project, but any project, in perpetuity.”
The biggest legislative concern about AI won’t be labels, data collection, or even content moderation.

Also learned now that author Milan Kundera died today.
Our generation has been fortunate to consume art by living survivors of communistic and socialist regimes. From Czechoslovakia, the Soviet Union, Hungary, East Germany, and more.
Through these books, poems, films, and other works of art, we’re reminded of the darkness that once consumed entire continents and sought to extinguish the flame of human liberty.
On other continents, that darkness continues to manifest.
Choose art and freedom.
