Let’s get the #SuperBowlLVII prediction out there for accountability purposes
Eagles 24
Chiefs 20
It’s impossible -as a NYG fan -to “root” for the Eagles 🦅 I respect what they’ve built. And Hurts is impossible to not like & respect. Mahomes is awesome. Hope for a good game.
While we’re waiting for … The Big Game 👀 I have to reiterate how hilarious this video is. I also confess to being at least 4 of these 5 guys. (#3 cracks me up every time!)
My brother is so talented. 🤤 And - bonus !! - we have a British guy here who has never seen football or experienced a Super Bowl!
After the first all female piloted Blue Angels fly by, we need to scramble those jets out to the Midwest for this UFO situation. #SuperBowlLVII
Wow. In the span of one $7m ad for The Transformers (now sponsored by Porsche), Mirage >>> Bumblebee. 🔥And Bunblebee is the coolest. #SuperBowl (For those scoring at home, Megan Fox still holding the overall #1 Transformers Movie spot….)
Eagles 🦅 looking crisp AF. Cruise right on down the field with little resistance from the Chiefs.
Jalen Hurts takes it in on the sneak. That O-line is gooooood.
Andddddd. We are back. Chiefs do what they need to do and take it down the field for a TD. Mahomes looks just fine on the ankle. Pacheco, the rookie out of NEW JERSEYS RUTGERS takes it in for the score!! @Ellis_Gordon1 !!! 🙌
I leave the on court breakdowns to the experts over at @TalkinKnicks and @TheKnicksWall and @TheStrickland but as an IP lawyer (and basketball fan) this version of Knicks vs Raptors - a trade secret Complaint filed in SDNY today - is in my wheelhouse.

The allegations here focus on a common fact pattern alleged in trade secret cases, an employee moving from the Plaintiff to the Defendant and taking with and sharing the Plaintiff’s (here, the Knicks) trade secrets with the new employer (here, the Raptors).

This is the latest in a flurry of lawsuits that have been filed against generative AI app makers.
As I’ve said before - and Yoda has too - “Begun the AI wars have. Yes. Mmmm.”

Here is an earlier thread 🧵 I did on the Andersen et al copyright class action against Stability AI MidJourney, and DeviantArt in which artists allege copyright claims b/c their works were used to train #AI generative art algorithms.
The SCOTUS today handed down its long-awaited decision in the Warhol Foundation vs Goldsmith copyright infringement case involving Warhol’s Prince series based on Goldsmiths photo re the boundaries of fair use and when a work is an infringement vs a transformative use.
TLDR:
The Supreme Court ruled for Goldsmith and against Warhol, holding that this was NOT fair use and not transformative.
Warhol’s argument that the silk- screen image of the photograph was transformative because it “has a different meaning or message” was rejected.

Note:
Only one of the four fair use factors - the purpose and character of the use - was at issue on appeal and before the SCOTUS in this case.

Breaking down the "real-world legal contract specifying the terms of the streaming royalties and guaranteeing real-world ownership for the NFT holder" for #Rihanna's #NFT offering, which dropped last week ahead of her #SuperBowl Halftime performance tomorrow.

The 300 royalty-linked NFTs were available for purchase last week at $210 a piece and quickly sold out. Each NFT provides holders with royalties from streaming revenues of her 2015 hit song, "B**** Better Have My Money," and some other goodies.
THEEAD 🧵 Another new lawsuit was filed today against Stability AI, the makers of Stable Diffusion generative AI software. The Plaintiff in this case is Getty Images.

This isn’t the first lawsuit against Stability AI and other generative AI app makers.
