A small, vibrant green bird with a sleek body and dark eyes perches on a moss-covered branch, with a blurred background of soft, golden-green light.

Nasty work. www.vanityfair.com/news/story/m...

But their defense also hinges on the argument that the individual books themselves are, essentially, worthless—one expert witness for Meta describes that the influence of a single book in LLM pretraining “adjusted its performance by less than 0.06% on industry standard benchmarks, a meaningless change no different from noise.” Furthermore, Meta says, that while the company “has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in LLM development,” they see no market in paying authors to license their books because “for there to be a market, there must be something of value to exchange, but none of Plaintiffs works has economic value, individually, as training data.” (An argument essential to fair use, but that also sounds like a scaled up version of a scenario in which the New York Philharmonic board argues against paying individual members of the orchestra because the organization spent a lot of money on the upkeep of David Geffen Hall, and also, a solo bassoon cannot play every part in “The Rite of Spring.”)

Decided to read The Fantastic Four from the very beginning and maybe I'll post my favourite moment of each issue in a thread.

The Fantastic Four, Is. 1 (Nov, 1969)
Reed Richards not reeding the room.

Two panels from the original Fantastic Four comics. The team are all putting their hands together and announcing their superhero names.

"I'm calling myself the Human Torch and I'm with you all the way" says Johnny Storm. "Same goes for me... the Invisible Girl!" says Sue Storm. Reed then says "There's only one still missing... Ben!!"

Ben says "I ain't Ben anymore-- I'm what Susan called me-- The Thing!!". Reed then says "And I'll call myself... Mister Fantastic!!"

The “revolutionary” magic that you are looking? The “direction” that you are begging Black people for? It is in the work that you are avoiding.

Mainly? Reading.
