Pay Up, AI Bot: That's the Message From a Key Company in How the Internet Works

AI companies might find it harder to access the entire web to train their large language models after the internet infrastructure provider Cloudflare said this week it would block AI data crawlers by default. It's the latest front to open in an ongoing fight between the creators of content and the AI developers who use that content to train generative AI models. In court, authors and content creators are suing major AI companies for compensation, saying copyrighted content was used without perm

Building Linux kernel on macOS natively

I've recently added a Linux compatibility layer to Starina operating system based on a lightweight VM approach similar to WSL2. I can cross-compile its init program with Cargo. I can prepare a container image contents using skopeo. However, I need to build the genuine Linux kernel, preferably on my daily driver: macOS. The most common way to build Linux kernel on macOS would be using Docker Desktop, and that works fine. I know nobody need to build on macOS natively, but it looked possible - th

Tesla’s Numbers Are In, and They’re Not Good

Tesla’s struggles continue as the company reports another drop in vehicle deliveries, deepening concerns that its image problem, especially in Europe, is weighing heavily on consumer demand.

Nudify app’s plan to dominate deepfake porn hinges on Reddit, 4chan, and Telegram, docs show

Clothoff—one of the leading apps used to quickly and cheaply make fake nudes from images of real people—reportedly is planning a global expansion to continue dominating deepfake porn online. Also known as a nudify app, Clothoff has resisted attempts to unmask and confront its operators. Last August, the app was among those that San Francisco's city attorney, David Chiu, sued in hopes of forcing a shutdown. But recently, a whistleblower—who had "access to internal company information" as a forme

Websites hosting major US climate reports taken down

WASHINGTON (AP) — Websites that displayed legally mandated U.S. national climate assessments seem to have disappeared, making it harder for state and local governments and the public to learn what to expect in their backyards from a warming world.

Websites for the national assessments and the U.S. Global Change Research Program were down Monday and Tuesday with no links, notes or referrals elsewhere. The White House,

Turn Off This Facebook Setting Now to Avoid Sharing Your Entire Camera Roll With Meta AI

There's good news and bad news: The bad news is that Meta's continued development of generative AI has led it to add a privacy nightmare setting to its Facebook app. The good news is that, in a big departure from Meta's status quo, you can opt out.

They’re beefing up their traditional business cabins to snag higher fares while providing more luxurious premium economy seating for trave

Physicists Solve a 50-Year Mystery About a Critically Important Molecule

After relying on an educated guess for decades, scientists have finally confirmed the dipole moment of aluminum monochloride (AlCl), an elusive but important molecule known to sneak around the interiors of ancient galaxies.

Given its importance, the new result, published last month in Physical Review A, presents exciting opportunities for

Here’s why you should probably steer clear of Samsung’s online-exclusive colors

Zac Kew-Denniss / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung reportedly requires authorized service centers to color-match replacement parts, including internal components. As a result, users with Samsung-exclusive colorways have faced unexpected repair delays due to limited part availability. This raises concerns about the practicality of choosing Samsung-exclusive finishes. Samsung typically releases exclusive colors for its flagship devices, which are available only through its official web store. T

Cloudflare just changed the internet, and it's bad news for the AI giants

iStock / Getty Images Plus The major internet Content Delivery Network (CDN), Cloudflare, has declared war on AI companies. Starting July 1, Cloudflare now blocks by default AI web crawlers accessing content from your websites without permission or compensation. The change addresses a real problem.

Mandelbrot in x86 Assembly by Claude

Mandelbrot in x86 assembly by Claude. Inspired by a tweet asking if Claude knew x86 assembly, I decided to run a bit of an experiment. I prompted Claude Sonnet 4: Write me an ascii art mandelbrot fractal generator in x86 assembly And got back code that looked... like assembly code I guess? So I copied some jargon out of that response and asked: I have some code written for x86-64 assembly using NASM syntax, targeting Linux (using system calls for output). How can I run that on my Mac?
