'The Danish government is to clamp down on the creation and dissemination of AI-generated deepfakes by changing copyright law to ensure that everybody has the right to their own body, facial features and voice.' Danes decline to 'turbocharge' AI and turn to copyright protections.

🧵 It’s the 100th day of Trump 2.0, so here are 100 times Trump and those close to him have attacked press freedom and transparency.

That doesn’t mean they’re only averaging one per day – we had to make cuts. There will probably be more attacks while we’re posting this.

My time is divided up between so many different labours of love, and the one hour I loved the most today was the one I spent working on my novel. Nearly there.

The rules are simple and yet people seem to find thelm impossible to learn. No cooperation with the far-right. No votes with them. No coalition. No adoption of their narrative. Their ideas must be defeated, not validated. If you see them cheering, you've done the wrong thing.
