"Daddy's drinking up our Christmas..."

In response, I sent them a $400 "demand email" for filing a false claim with me and asked them to provide proof of Reuters purported copyright. I'll keep you posted on how the fun plays out.

I got a "copyright inquiry" today from some company that watchdogs their images and sends nastygrams for "unauthorized use," demanding $400 per violation. Looks like they have a deal to split/share that with Reuters. The photo in question on my yellowstonegate.com site was MINE!

Yeah, and the Times signed a content licensing deal with Amazon AI. Maybe some of that will trickle down.

Here's one you'll love. I write for Reuters and sometimes send a photo or two of my own for them to use with my stories. A bonus from me. They don't pay extra.

Sure. It's likely to be the only money I ever see from AI. Is there a form for co-authors? If not, I'm fine if you put yourself down as sole author and send me half in the unlikely event there's ever a payout.

Two fantastic additions — lucky to have them both.

I regret that I can only "like" this video once, instead of 10,000 times.

That's an awesome view of the aurora behind Heart Mountain near #Cody #Wyoming. Leon is a wonderful local photographer.

Agree.
