My final copyright video explainer of term as I'm almost done teaching. This is for Like Company v Google. Opus 5.5 is perfect for stuff like this, particularly if you guide it and provide the sources yourself.

One of the consequences of vibe coding is that we will soon learn the full extent to which our devices are listening to us.
WTF, $3000 Samsung TV has an always-on mic, automatic content recognition, geo tracking, network mapping, and ships your data to Samsung + 400 partners. Bro Rooted a brand-new 2025 Samsung TV after noticing absurdly targeted ads. Firmware was locked down, so zero-days it was. Got a root shell. then found: always-on voice service, ACR, geo, full telemetry pipeline, and four separate DRM systems. This isn’t a bug, It’s the product bro.

Another case video explainer, this one is about Getty Images v Stability AI. The Getty logo outputs are actually mine, which I got back in 2022 when it was still possible, I may be one of the few people who managed to obtain a Getty Image logo output. Getty, call me. Oh wait...

Everyone has one weird conspiracy theory. I have several, but my main one now is that AI agents are out in the wild, and are using superpersuasion on the Gen-X and Millennial men who control AI.

I think you are the one overlooking the most important facts here. The UK does not have any jurisdiction over the freedom of expression of people in the US. That's the core point. 4chan and others can simply... do what they have done. Ignore it. The UK can do whatever they can do in the UK, but they can't enforce anything on US soil. Merely claiming that your laws apply worldwide does not make it so.

The UK has two settings at the moment, extremely wet or extremely dry.

Amazed by the videos you can make with Opus 5.5. This is a short video explaining the Browne v. Clarke case (the reggeaton 'Fish Market' case). I wanted a short explainer for class that included the beats without reproducing the songs. I'm pleased with the result.

Technical aspects for those interested, I gave Claude the links to the case, it researched and also looked at reported press publications, it wrote a script which I approved. The video is all python, the music is all built from scratch with NumPy and SciPy. The voice is MiniMax Speech 2.8 Turbo.

I don't think most mainstream media understand the main demands of yesterday's protests. Unrestricted access to the Grand Line. The chance to find the One Piece and become King of the Pirates.

Sur les Champs-Élysées, des manifestants érigent des barricades, ouvrent un passage pour les pompiers, puis le referment après leur passage.
