Authors Challenge Metaβs Use Of Their Books For Training AI
Meta used millions of pirated books to train its latest AI model, Llama 3. All this raises questions about Mark Zuckerberg's leadership style.
Every writer is furious to learn that our books have been stolen. I know I am. I have worked for over 30 years to develop my skills, and then for one immoral twat to steal it because he couldn't be bothered.

Maybe it's time to start digging for ivory in the back yard. Loads of Vikings roamed Oslo, long before it was Oslo of course. It would be fasinating to find a Japanese piece made with Viking ivory. Somehow they did get around, the Vikingsπ

I read a book a day as a kid. It saved me on so many levels. I can't really claim to be much of a communicator. What goes on in my head, usually don't make it out of my mouth π Intersting article, though.

My covers 'A Very Hygge Holiday', contemporary romance set in Norway. Lots of food, pretty cold in the winter, lovely summer. One has a quirky Viking dog, the other a very floofy Norwegian forest cat. Design by the publisher One More Chapter. It looks very Nordic π
