Word. Incentives matter.
Current undergrads are as smart as past undergrads in my experience. But they are subject to unprecedented pressures not to treat academic excellence as the basic point of university study. A good maxim in academic life is never to blame the students, better look to ourselves.

Ironically, “creative” copyright infringement lawsuits like those filed against AI companies encourage other companies to draft broader ToS waivers, in order to insulate themselves from potential colorable infringement claims.
The wetransfer AI data panic, like the Dropbox AI data panic, makes no sense other than as a device to sow panic. Why would profitable trusted storage businesses make file sharing stealthily insecure. I really don’t think it is a good idea to sow panic.

What until he hears about libraries & used bookstores.
Sen. @HawleyMO grilled @edleeprof on his comments on fair use at a Senate AI & copyright hearing today. Hawley said he wants "to live on a different planet" if AI firms can use authors' books without permission, and "lie," "hide," and "profit off of it.".

Litigation is slow! Last summer, @songadaymann & I sued the SEC for a declaratory judgment that selling art doesn't violate the securities laws, even if you sell it as NFTs. In May, @ohaiom argued that our case shouldn't be dismissed. Here are my favorite parts of the transcript.
