"As artificial intelligence continues to encroach into the media business, it seems the only options are to join ’em (as we saw this week with The Washington Post) or try to beat ’em, as we’re seeing today with Ziff Davis. Ziff Davis is one of the largest publishers in the U.S. with more than 45 sites globally, including IGN, CNET, Mashable, LifeHacker, and more. The publisher is now suing OpenAI over copyright infringement, claiming the company used Ziff Davis content to and generate responses through ChatGPT, per The New York Times.
“OpenAI seeks to move fast and break things on the assumption that the federal courts will not be able to effectively redress content owners’ sometimes existential concerns before it is too late,” the lawsuit reads (via Reuters). “OpenAI has intentionally and relentlessly reproduced exact copies and created derivatives of Ziff Davis Works without Ziff Davis’s authorization. … OpenAI has taken each of these steps knowing that they violate Ziff Davis’s intellectual property rights and the law.” The suit reportedly seeks hundreds of millions of dollars in damages."

Reading through the September 1985 issue of "A+" magazine, I came across a rather lovely (to my eye) painting of a person using their Apple //c (presumably using a spreadsheet program, that being the accompanying article...).
I can't quite make out the signature of the artist. It's a nice work reminiscent of some of the early Atari VCS box art an A8 manual covers.
The magazine, and other scans, can be found at Apple2Online: https://apple2online.com/?page_id=4786
UPDATE: Looks like the artist is John Robinette.
(Thanks @cstanhope

(2/3) Conglomerates like #ZiffDavis (#IPVanish, #StrongVPN, #SaferVPN, encrypt.me), #KapeTechnologies PLC (#ExpressVPN, Private Internet Access #PIA, #CyberGhost VPN, #ZenMate, #PrivateVPN), Nordsec Ltd (#NordVPN, #Surfshark, #AtlasVPN). They have high-paying #affiliate programs to reward "recommendations"; some even run their own "VPN ranking / recommendation" sites 😏: possibly acceptable for bypassing #censorship or #geoblocking, IMHO not trustworthy wrt privacy.
