Other media organisations such as the Associated Press and Axel Springer, which owns Bild and Politico, struck licensing deals with OpenAI last year. How AI tools are trained is alarming cr...

Alex Garland wants us to think about the imagery of war. The writer and director behind Euronews Culture's Film of the Week Civil War brings his imagery of a wartorn USA to the screen not through the moralistic firebrand narrative of revolutionary soldiers, nor from the painful perspective of innocent victims. Instead, Civil War follows journalists. Specifically, war correspondents with photojournalist Lee Smith (Kirsten Dunst) in the lead role. Lee is from a laconic old guard of photojournalists. She’s travelled around the world capturing images of humanity at its more wrought, raw, and worst...

In the near future, the United States isn’t so united anymore. At the heart of the country’s second civil war is a president (Nick Offerman, in non-distractingly Trumpian mode), who refuses to leave the White House. The Fascist-in-Chief has given himself a third term, disbanded the FBI, and used air strikes against American citizens. All for ego. Sound eerily probable? Writer-director Alex Garland (Sunshine, Ex Machina, Annihilation) is counting on it. To a point though, as he keeps things deliberately vague. What we know is carefully drip-fed to us. California and Texas have joined forces to ...

Digital news outlets The Intercept, Raw Story and AlterNet are joining the fight against unauthorised use of their journalism in artificial intelligence, filing a copyright-infringement lawsuit Wednesday against ChatGPT owner OpenAI. The organisations say thousands of their stories were used by OpenAI to train chatbots to answer questions posed to it by users, in effect piggybacking on their journalism without permission, payment or credit. San Francisco-based OpenAI did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The already beleaguered news industry sees the practice as a financial thr...

Washington (AFP) - The Pentagon congratulated The New York Times Tuesday for winning a Pulitzer Prize for its highly critical expose of civilian deaths in the Afghanistan war, saying the report forced the US military to examine its own behavior. Last December the newspaper exposed cover-ups of what it called thousands of civilian deaths caused by US forces during the 20-year war, deeply embarrassing the US government. Citing internal US documents, the report said the US military had advertised its ability to pinpoint targets to avoid civilians, using high-tech surveillance and closely-control...
