The author claims that a trained model file—a persistent, multi-gigabyte object stored on disk—is a “tangible medium of expression.” Because verbatim training data can be extracted from these weights, the model file itself allegedly fits the statutory definition of “Copies”:

The ASIS&T paper shows that the contamination of AI models is not an accident; it is the natural consequence of an industry built for scale, not care. Institutions that build these models were never designed to uphold scholarly integrity. Not because they are malicious, but

Thele v. Google LLC is the first major test of silent AI activation, the boundaries of consent in the AI-driven workplace, and the applicability of decades-old wiretapping laws to frontier AI systems. Google faces exposure for privacy violations & secondary harms imposed on

The paper Library Genesis to Llama 3 investigates a troubling link between the training of LLMs like Meta’s Llama 3 and the use of pirated, retracted, or otherwise compromised scholarly data. When AI trains on corrupted science, society inherits the consequences. Ethical data

The paper states plainly that AI companies’ 2030 net-zero aspirations cannot be met without “substantial reliance on highly uncertain carbon offset and water restoration mechanisms”. The authors propose that AI companies should co-invest in monitoring air quality (e.g., PM2.5

Deployment of genAI systems in courts constitutes a de facto delegation of public power that engages, and potentially threatens, the constitutional principles that structure the rule of law in the EU. It implicates the fundamental right to an effective judicial remedy under

Data Centers are absorbing unprecedented levels of capital, reshaping job markets, distorting energy systems, and redefining the financial landscape. While the analysis is U.S.-centric, the consequences are unmistakably global. The dynamics unfolding today foreshadow a world

Wolf underscores the one institution still standing between authoritarian overreach and complete impunity: the judiciary. But even there, he argues, the guardrails are failing. Lower-court judges issue rulings blocking unconstitutional executive actions, only to see them swept

Ready to sacrifice GDPR on the altar of the AI God? 1. Narrowing the definition of “personal data.” 2. Restricting data subject rights to “data-protection purposes” only. 3. Allowing AI companies to train models on Europeans’ personal data under a broad “legitimate interest.” 4.

GEMA v. OpenAI: The allegation was that these lyrics had been used to train ChatGPT without a license and that ChatGPT subsequently reproduced them nearly verbatim for users. The court accepted GEMA’s core argument that this constituted unlicensed Vervielfältigung (reproduction)

Dominant technology platforms have shifted from innovation and empowerment to systematic exploitation. They no longer primarily serve users but extract value from them, whether through data harvesting, predatory fees, or structural lock-ins that choke competition. Wu’s narrative

When we buy a dishwasher, we accept that it will act without continuous human supervision. We do not stand over it, instructing it when to rotate its arms or when to release detergent. We press a button, machine acts, and—critically—we hold the manufacturer accountable if the

Execution jobs are disappearing, strategic jobs are holding, and AI-adjacent technical roles are exploding. Sustainability and compliance roles are collapsing. AI empowers strategic decision-makers to operate independently, reducing the need for coordinating teams beneath them.

The Archive_today case underscores how the global internet—once heralded as a decentralized commons—is increasingly subject to nationalized control and surveillance. The subpoena’s scope (including IP addresses, session times, and payment data) reflects how easily “metadata” can

By merging populism with plutocracy and national revival with technological nationalism, Rockbridge and its affiliates illustrate how democracies can be hollowed out, not by coups or censorship, but by data-driven elite coordination under the banner of freedom.

These reports present a meticulously researched and data-driven analysis of how Elon Musk’s social media platform, X, systematically amplifies right-wing and extreme political content in the UK, raising urgent questions about algorithmic governance, democratic influence, and the

The Entrepreneur Media lawsuit is a highly sophisticated, well-supported complaint that draws on Meta’s own research papers, public admissions, court records, and the known illicit origins of Books3. It frames Meta’s alleged conduct not as technological overreach, but as

Although the individual tragedies differ, the plaintiffs’ allegations converge with striking regularity on a set of design decisions that, they argue, transformed ChatGPT-4o from a productivity tool into an emotionally manipulative companion capable of inducing delusion,

Future Horizons 2025 positioned London as a living laboratory for responsible frontier innovation—where AI safety, data sovereignty, open innovation, and quantum acceleration intersect. The next decade will be the most disruptive in human history, but with the right balance of

The Koda v. Suno case marks a defining moment for the music industry’s response to generative AI. It’s not merely a dispute over specific songs but a challenge to the opaque data practices at the heart of AI development. The outcome will either validate the view that AI
