COMPLETE TRAVESTY: Creativity is not an industry. Anyone who dares to say that knows nothing about art, culture, creativity, and manufacturing. You cannot manufacture creativity. Either a work is considered creative by the public and the critics or not.

"My colleagues and I from all sides in the House of Lords have acted where the government has refused, adding emergency transparency measures to the legislation – the data (use and access) bill – that is passing through parliament. Our amendment would allow existing copyright law to be enforced: copyright owners would understand when, where and by whom their work was being stolen to train AI. The logic being that if an AI firm has to disclose evidence of theft, it will not steal in the first place. These measures, voted for in ever-increasing numbers by lords from all parties – and notable grandees from the government’s own backbenches – were voted down by a government wielding its significant, if reluctant, majority."

WtF is this? A historically free council carpark now with a machine saying you're "invited to pay"?

This language is concerning if not actively deceptive, partly for folks who might miss the optionality, and also for other locations where I've seen the same machines before now, whether I've missed a trick.

Nice one, Highland Council, just giving the idea of tight-fisted money-grabbing Highland Scotland another airing.

I normally post this on the #Birdapp on a Friday! But as I am currently banned until midnight on that site for calling the former pm a #Murdochpuppet and a #MoneyGrabbing #Slut so after a pretty rubbish week it's a bloody great pint of #EstrellaDamm in the wonderful @Royaloaklewes with good friends in a great atmosphere!!
