Google's Nano Banana is inserting actual people into images without users asking it to. AI proponents argue that "it's the user's fault if they infringe with AI," but what happens when you use something like this simply because you don't recognize the source? Massive liability.

Keep calling out people who work in generative AI - speaking from experience, it actually works. My friend's mum was, I suppose, a very early AI hater. In 2012, I sat next to her at dinner and told her I was working on AI music. She was direct: "I hope you fail." I had a few…

Fantastic piece on ‘AI creativity’ “When you give your artistic voice over to a machine, you invite a mediator into that expression. Something else is literally doing the talking for you. You are not saying anything.” theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

The ratio on this post is stunning. Read the comments. Are our politicians the last people fooled by the false promise of AI? Or are they simply the people the lobbyists work hardest on because they are gatekeepers of regulation. Flawed tech, built with stolen data.

A lot of people think GPT-5 generalizes out of distribution (OOD) because it can help, in some very limited form, in scientific research. Yet usually (99.99% of the time) what GPT-5 is normally doing is searching and surfacing existing literature not solving novel problems.

We’re also releasing new research on how GPT-5 is accelerating scientific discovery. Our new paper, Early science acceleration experiments with GPT-5, presents case studies where GPT-5 accelerated key steps in real research workflows and, in a few cases, contributed novel…



I keep illustrious company these days. Seeing my book sitting next to The King (Stephen, not Elvis) is more than a lifelong dream. I never dreamt this would happen. I might actually spontaneously combust if I reach number 1. (If you have 99p, there's only one way to find out...)

Big AI companies are trying to restrict states from regulating AI by adding a dangerous eleventh-hour provision to the annual National Defense Authorization Act. Contact your representatives – there are only a few days left to stop this! Link: linktr.ee/StopTheAIBan


Generative AI has recreated the Resurrection Men, except the graves they rob are those of living creatives and the corpses they sell for pennies are our work. I would rather scratch stories into the lid of my coffin with bloodied fingertips than be dissected by these ghouls.

“GenAI isn’t magic. It’s the product of millions of invisible creators—poets, coders, photographers, musicians—whose work has been harvested, scraped & absorbed into AI models without consent or compensation… This is not innovation. It is expropriation.” good-leadership.beehiiv.com/p/ai-must-fund…

I predicted this. A notable manufacturer blocked me when I asked about guardrails and safety standards. It's utter madness to place LLM technology into childrens' toys in its current state.

“Researchers found that the AI toys can verge into risky territory for kids, including telling them where to find knives and how to start a fire. One of the AI toys even engaged in explicit discussions, offering advice on sex positions and fetishes.” 🔗 futurism.com/artificial-int…
