They say:

"After decades of productive partnership with Cornell University, and with support from the Simons Foundation, arXiv is establishing itself as an independent nonprofit organization, marking the next stage in its 35-year history as a pioneer of open-access science."

The arXiv’s current annual budget is approximately $6 million and they employ ~27 staff members, most of whom work remotely, primarily in the U.S. The new chief executive officer (CEO) will be responsible for all aspects of arXiv, including strategic planning, financial management, technical infrastructure, personnel oversight and stakeholder engagement. They will work closely with board member representatives of Cornell University and the Simons Foundation to establish the organization’s independence.

A firm called Spencer Stuart is recruiting the CEO. For confidential nominations and expressions of interest, you can contact them at [email protected].  The salary is expected to be around $300,000, though the actual salary offered may differ.

When Suno generates a song that resembles one from the training data, has it plagiarised that song?

I think it's hard to deny that it has, but if you disagree, you might find support for your view in a short story by Jorge Luis Borges, about a man who wanted to rewrite "Don Quixote" without plagiarising it. He only succeeds in writing a few chapters — but they're even better than the original!

I wrote an essay about it for my blog:
