Added 2023-02-23 22:17:49 +0000 UTC

We analyze the US Copyright Office’s rationale for not copyrighting works created from the Midjourney text to image generator. Plus we examine Canada’s Bill C-18 that would enact legislation compelling big tech companies to pay news publishers for linking to their stories. And we discuss Towns, a protocol and a web-based chat app designed to facilitate self-owned, self-governed online communities from the person that brought us Meerkat.

The Revolution Will Be Prompt - GDI 4463 starts at 30:18

Are you fluent in Klingon? Justin gives his thoughts on Notion AI. Is it notes all the way down? Is the $10 worth it? Is SEO a wasteland? Would you pay to not flail? Are rabbit holes fun? Search talk takes over. So many possible killers. So many changes in search are coming quickly, who will rise? Clippers as a service? How well dressed is your search engine? Will we all be paying for the service? How satisfied are you with your sheets?
