RCCC!!! COME FIND ME!!!!! K-15 LETS GOOOO!!!

On Tuesday, US District Judge William Alsup confirmed that Anthropic and the authors "believe they have a settlement in principle" and will file a motion for preliminary approval of the settlement by September 5. The settlement announcement comes after Alsup certified what AI industry advocates criticized as the largest copyright class action of all time. Although the lawsuit was raised by three authors—Andrea Bartz, Kirk Wallace Johnson, and Charles Graeber—Alsup allowed up to 7 million claimants to join based on the large number of books that Anthropic may have illegally downloaded to train its AI models. If every author in the class filed a claim, industry advocates warned, it would "financially ruin" the entire AI industry.

AUTHORS! ASSEMBLE!

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security. 
 
Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.
 
Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

IT'S JUNETEENTH! There is still so much fucking work to do in this country to clean up the blood it was built on and so many reparations owed.

One of the small ways we can help is actively seeking out, hiring, supporting and buying from Black artists.
