Report and impact assessment on Copyright and Artificial Intelligence A report and impact assessment on the use of copyright works in the development of artificial intelligence (AI) systems.

The @ukgov.bsky.social were mandated through the Data (Use & Access) Act to respond to the consultation we were engaged in last year by 18 March.

This is excellent. 👏🏽 Reaffirming the law is a good place to start 😉.

See below for the submission of the @assocphoto.bsky.social to the UK government, strongly opposing the proposed exception to copyright for the purposes of training AI, & setting out very useful context & information in support of their position.

🚨🚨 So five years since #brexit and I think it is time reshare Daniel Hannan's absolutely insane and delusional vision of grandeur and hubris that characterised the true engineers and believers of #brexit. Here comes the #brexit insanity No 1 🧵

It is woeful. We’re way behind most of Europe in 4G/5G connectivity.

If #RachelReevesMP really wants to get growth going, then perhaps ensuring decent mobile networks exist along the main train routes would be an easy win. Just spent 30 mins on one transaction that should only take 3 on the @eastmidsrailway.bsky.social route to #London. #productivity #fail
