Summary
Twitter is testing an edit button. Will this feature find its way to all Twitter users in the near future? An artist submits a AI generated art as his own painting at the Colorado State Fair and wins. Backlash ensues. The US Commerce Department put in place new rules on August 26th, that require a license in order to export high end machine learning chips that meet or exceed a certain performance threshold, to Russia, Hong Kong or China.
Starring Tom Merritt, Justin Robert Young, Roger Chang, Joe.
