Investors' use of the phrase "training data" is just a way to obfuscate the fact that that data is really "source code"... Good job no one has had to put the matter in front of a judge yet!

At Lawfare, we have restored the vast bulk of what was deleted. We have also started to preemptively archive a raft of material that […]

"Born to the manor" seems to rub people the wrong way but without people putting a lifetime into developing values around honorable, ethical service then all that remains of democracy is oligarchy and tribalism; all that remains of law is witch trials; all that remains of scientific inquiry is corporate flacks.
