🧪 ICYMI: $25,000 bridge funding for terminated NSF grants.

Major props for to the Spencer, Sloan, W. T. Grant, and Kapor Foundations for their swift action, even though we (and they) know this is a band-aid fix.

New study predicts that AI will steal almost a quarter of musicians’ income within the next 4 years (Source: CISAC).

The gaslighting is over. Artists now fully grasp the AI business model—which is to destroy their livelihood and replace human music with bot slop.

Excited to announce our new project and grant: “DIY Commemoration of the Dead”, a Discovery Project funded by the Australian Research Council (ARC) 🎉⚰️

Led by experts from #unimelbourne, @ox.ac.uk, and @cuboulder.info. Details in the thread.
