given that practically every publisher on the planet had their works used in this way, I wouldn’t be surprised if it becomes a huge legal battle.

It’s also not the only AI company to have done this, so this might be the first of many lawsuits against AI companies.

My other half decided to make Challah bread for our holiday.

As a published author with two ISBNs, I’ve been included in this class action lawsuit against Anthropic [anthropiccopyrightsettlement.com] for training their AI on copyrighted works like mine.

The first record I put on the “adult” record player was Dark Side of the Moon, if that tells you anything 😉

Nothing wrong with Metal. When I do my music shows on Friday and Saturday nights on lotuseffect.live, I play quite a variety of music.

I have a few bootlegs from Dire Straits in my collection. ❤

My “closest to hearing a famous act” story involves Quebec City, a music festival, and the Rolling Stones. Never got anywhere near where they were playing, sadly.

I did get to see Pink Floyd in 1994, though.

Well, I ain't superstitious
And I don't get suspicious
But my woman is a friend of mine
And I know that it's true that all the things that I do
Will come back to me in my sweet time

But just because a record has a groove
Don't make it in the groove
But you can tell right away at letter A
When the people start to move

also I grew up in the US. I don’t think Dire Straits was known widely until Brothers in Arms 😉

Dire Straits…one of my all time favorite bands. While my first introduction to them was Brothers in Arms, my favorite song comes off of Love Over Gold. And yes, I have both on vinyl now 😉

Need more Queen on vinyl, especially since my other half is a big fan.
