The Most Famous AI Writing Tic Is Also the Most Mysterious
If had debuted this year, William Shakespeare might have been accused of writing it with AI. A certain suspicious rhetorical device appears again and again in the play. It's in Act I, Scene ii: "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves." In Act III, Scene ii: "Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more."

AI companies want to water down Australia's copyright laws. Artists are outraged, Labor is split
When Anna Funder stood before a pack of journalists at Parliament House this month, she presented herself not just as a writer but also a "victim of crime". The Stasiland author was using the analogy to illustrate how technology companies have flagrantly "hoovered up" her literary works for their own profit. Authors, artists, musicians and media organisations were last year assured those laws wouldn't be watered down when the federal government ruled out granting a legal exemption for artificial intelligence companies to mine content to train their large language models, which include ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude. But continual lobbying from tech giants and a whistleblower's tipoff to the independent senator David Pocock have ignited fears that the Albanese government might go back on its word - even as it continues to insist that it won't.
