(to be completely fair: 4chan isn't really what people would think of as a social media platform, doesn't have many of the traditional social media algorithmic features, is nowhere near as widely used as major social media platforms, and its harms are probably best addressed under other regulation)

Funny bit in estimates: Senator Fatima Payman pointing out that 4chan likely wouldn't be affected by the teen social media ban because it doesn't have accounts. eSafety Commissioner says she doesn't think that it was considered when making the ban.

Scoop: OpenAI has signed its first ever Australia government contract, quietly inking a deal with Treasury amid the ChatGPT-maker's charm offensive on policymakers.

This modest contract is an ideal foothold into future, more lucrative deals, according to one firm's analysis.

There’s a version of this with train tracks in Wallace and Gromit, I’d guess they’re referencing earlier examples though

a stuffed animal is riding on the back of a train .

I fear if things don’t change right now, this image is going to come back to haunt us

Laura Rodriguez, on Twitter:

A federal agent points a weapon at a woman who was recording them.

Jess, a U.S. citizen and member of a neighborhood patrol team that documents and shares ICE activity across the city, was filming when the incident occurred earlier today in the Berwyn area.

Absolutely nothing about this site’s architecture stops AI companies from scraping and training on it right now. The company everyone is freaking out about has clear license terms that say they aren’t doing that, but anything you post here is absolutely being used by someone for training
