🗿 Un abbraccio a Satoshi Nakamoto
📍 A Lugano (Svizzera), è stata realizzata di recente un'opera d'arte che celebra il fondatore di Bitcoin.
🔍 La caratteristica unica di questa statua è che si vede solo da una prospettiva, attraverso il codice. Questo simboleggia l'anonimato di Satoshi Nakamoto, permettendo di vedere la sua "anima" attraverso il suo operato.
👤 Satoshi Nakamoto è infatti il fondatore di Bitcoin. Dal 31 ottobre 2008, nessuno sa ancora chi sia realmente, eppure tutti possono vedere che non ha mai mosso i suoi Bitcoin dopo la prima e ultima transazione prima della sua scomparsa.

YouTube and Music Labels Collaborate on AI-Generated Music Guidelines
Hey there, AI & Law community!
YouTube has partnered with Universal Music Group and other notable record labels to establish a set of guidelines for dealing with AI-generated music.
Here are the key principles outlined in this framework:
1️⃣ AI Responsibility: YouTube commits to smart AI use with music partners.
2️⃣ Creative Protection: New AI creativity needs safeguards for music partners.
3️⃣ Trust & Safety: YouTube expands safety for AI content.
AI covers, where AI replaces original singers' voices, are being uploaded daily. YouTube is actively addressing copyright concerns through its Content ID system and plans to use AI to identify infringing content, although some controversies surround these efforts.

Venture Capitalists Seek Unique Startups
Harry Stebbings highlights the challenges in securing early investments for billion-dollar startups. He notes that successful startups often face skepticism, as venture funds must invest in uniquely promising ideas that others doubt. This trend raises the question: should you seek agreement or disagreement on your idea?
In related news, the music generator JEN-1.5 is now publicly available, focused on licensed content under Warner. However, it lacks quality, providing only basic melodies and no vocal options. While it includes a subscription model for limited generations, it aims to appeal to musicians with its StyleFilter tool, which promises some innovative potential.
