I've been a little down lately because a feature I was writing is morphing into a tv script. I was curious, so here's a list of feature scripts that never got made but became shows instead;
Mad Men
Mr. Robot
Glee
ER
The Sopranos

Scams, at a certainty poverty level, are hilarious. I'll get an email like "We've confirmed your €100 Netflix subscription, thanks"; if you can find ANY money in my bank, you deserve it!
"Want to cancel your €5000 Amazon order?" Nah, dickhead, charge it to my Swiss account for all I care!

At what point do we hold the "tool" provider accountable for the output. This video was created with the intention of misleading the public and stoking Islamophobia.
This tool is being used to undermine and disrupt democracies for political gain. Any other tool that did this would be regulated

A video shared on social media appears to show a teacher leading a classroom full of schoolchildren, each kneeling on their own mat, in Islamic prayer during a class.
The footage, however, is fake and created by Artificial Intelligence.

Debunked: Fake video of children learning Islamic prayer in school shared millions of times

AI: That's a good question. That question has been searched, and most certainly is a question. Of course, it's important to remember all the completely unrelated questions not connected with that question, and others. I hope this helps :)

Artists behind some of the most popular films of all time are also forging one of the most powerful organized resistances to AI.
With solidarity, class action lawsuits and strong legislation, they're fighting to protect their livelihoods, and pop culture, from big tech.
