Audre Lorde's "master's tools" speech was not about tech platforms. So why does tech discourse keep citing it as if it were? I write about that here: tarakiyee.com/on-the-enshi... #enshittification #AudreLorde #techpolicy
As our report made clear, the UK needs to move quickly towards a stable framework that gives confidence to rights holders and responsible AI developers alike. We welcome the Government's reiteration that it no longer has a preferred option on copyright reform. However, it should now go further and rule out explicitly a new commercial text and data mining exception with an opt-out mechanism, as we recommended in our report. Indeed, the Government should rule out any reform to copyright law that would remove incentives to license copyrighted works for AI training, such as the introduction of a 'commercial research exception'. The Government should also promote the development and adoption of sovereign AI models that deliver enhanced transparency and respect for copyright.

Good luck with this. The UK can have copyright maximalism or (globally relevant) sovereign AI, but not both

Text generated by large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT, Gemini, DeepSeek etc. often violates several of Wikipedia's core content policies. For this reason, the use of LLMs to generate or rewrite article content is prohibited, save for these two exceptions: 1. Editors are permitted to use LLMs to suggest basic copyedits to their own writing, and to incorporate some of them after human review, provided the LLM does not introduce content of its own. Caution is required, because LLMs can go beyond what you ask of them and change the meaning of the text such that it is not supported by the sources cited. 2. Editors are permitted to use LLMs to translate articles from another language's Wikipedia into the English Wikipedia, but must follow the guidance laid out at Wikipedia:LLM-assisted translation. Some editors may have similar writing styles to LLMs. More evidence than just stylistic or linguistic signs is needed to justify sanctions, and it is best to consider the text's compliance with core content policies and recent edits by the editor in question.
Wikipedia has banned use of LLMs to generate or rewrite article content, with a couple of exceptions en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiped...

A jury found Meta’s platform design intentionally harmful to young users.
That finding, combined with failures like weak age verification, significantly increases legal and regulatory risk for social platforms.

A jury found tech companies acted with malice, opening the door to punitive damages.
That could push a $3M verdict much higher and strengthen a new legal theory that platforms can cause personal injury.
