I’m sorry. I didn’t realize that a rough beast was slouching this way, and that’s on me.

Lead Investor in Music Generation App Suno Deletes Tweet That Contradicts Its Argument in High Stakes Court Cases A lead investor of the AI music app Suno appears to have undermined the company's legal defense in light of copyright infringement lawsuits.

More so these people are just really fucking stupid when they’re currently in several legal battles and their argument is β€œthis doesn’t replace or compete with human music” and their lead investor just outright says β€œI’m so over music made by humans!”

C.C. Gong, Suno, and the Empty Solipsism of AI-Generated Music - Opus AI companies (and their investors) sure do love imagining a world of dehumanized art.

Nice essay on Suno investor CC Gong’s Twitter snafu last week that she has since deleted and how the hyper individualized, extremely online VC class will continue to shoot itself in the foot until it bleeds to death by alienating even the most normie of culture consumer.

Yes, hello, is that God? Yeah, hi. I have a complaint. You gave me this brain that’s designed for finding berries and avoiding lions and now people are β€˜just circling back’ to see if we can β€˜move the needle’ on β€˜key initiatives’? NONE of those things are berries.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.

I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.

Leavitt argued that the actβ€”if realizedβ€”would not prevent married women from voting. Seconds later, she admitted that the bill actually would require married women and anyone else who has changed their name to re-register before they vote. trib.al/oY78xpw

One funny part of this whole saga is that the Krafts are refusing to front the $7.8M for town's costs for hosting World Cup games.

They had *no problem* burning $6.8M on a doomed mayoral campaign for nepo baby Josh Kraft last year.

Let me tell you something. Y’all are asking too many damn questions at every point of sale. I have to leave a comment, make a suggestion, donate to a charity, choose a method of payment three times and then multiple choice of ways to get a receipt.

Take the damn money and leave me alone.

i know everything is terrible but all in one day it's too hot for a hoodie, the snow is disappearing, and the air smells incredible

everything bad is still happening but it's important to take a quick dandelion break when you can
