42 m. ago ‘I like making people do a double take’: Darren Soh’s best phone picture

By rotating the picture 180 degrees, the photographer produced an abstract image of the Potong Pasir housing estate in SingaporeOne morning, Darren Soh drove to the Potong Pasir housing estate in Singapore to take some photos.

The fight kicked off when the government launched a consultation into regulating artificial intelligence with its own “preferred” outcome: letting AI companies steal copyrighted work by default unless the owners of that work “opt out”. But opting out is impossible to do without AI transparency. The plan is a charter for theft, since creatives would have no idea who is taking what, when and from whom.When the government stoops to a preferred outcome that undermines the moral right to your work and income, you might reasonably be angered.
