Sept 20 (Reuters) - A trade group for U.S. authors has sued OpenAI in Manhattan federal court on behalf of prominent writers including John Grisham, Jonathan Franzen, George Saunders, Jodi Picoult and "Game of Thrones" novelist George R.R. Martin, accusing the company of unlawfully training its popular artificial-intelligence based chatbot ChatGPT on their work.
The proposed class-action lawsuit filed late on Tuesday by the Authors Guild joins several others from writers, source-code owners and visual artists against generative AI providers. In addition to Microsoft-backed (MSFT.O) OpenAI, similar lawsuits are pending against Meta Platforms and Stability AI over the data used to train their AI systems....CONT...

“When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man, he walketh through dry places, seeking rest, and findeth none. AND Matthew 12:43-45 meaning
Jesus describes a strange truth about demon-possession and likens it to this evil generation. Jesus explains what happens when an unclean spirit goes out of a man. The term, unclean spirit, is another name for a demon. Jesus says the demon passes through waterless places seeking rest, and does not find it. It is not certain what Jesus means by waterless places, but from the context it seems to apply to being in a state of not being in a man. This could be a reference to the fact that a human body primarily consists of water. When the unclean spirit is not inhabiting a human, it cannot find rest as it passes through these waterless places. The rest it is seeking appears to be to possess another man to torment.
When it does not find rest, the restless unclean spirit says (possibly to itself) I will return to my house from which I came. After going out of a man, the demon comes back to his house (the man) in order to find rest. And when the unclean spirit returns it finds the man unoccupied, swept, and put in order. The man is spiritually empty and unoccupied. Jesus says that the house is swept and put in order to indicate that the man is ready to be reoccupied. His house is ready to be moved into once again.
But the unclean spirit does not immediately move in as we might expect it to do. Instead, it goes and takes along with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. Instead of moving in immediately, it finds other demon friends more wicked than itself and then they all possess the man together. Perhaps this restless demon, who has been evicted once, recruits reinforcements, to better secure the potential to remain in possession of the man. Instead of being agitated by one unclean spirit, the man is now afflicted with eight evil spirits. Jesus points out the last state of that man becomes worse than the first. It is bad for a man to be the host of one demon. It is worse for that man to be the host of eight. (OF COURSE THE "SCRIPTURES TEACH FOR MANKIND=WOMEN TOO)!!! Angela Renee’ White HAS TO GET AWAY FROM AND STAY AWAY FROM "CERTAIN DEMON FILLED" OTHERS/CROWDS/FRIENDS/PEOPLE!!! 😎🥰🤩

Charged for unwanted items in Fortnite?

Were you or your kids one of the many millions of people charged in Fortnite for unwanted V-Bucks or in-game items (like gear, llamas, or battle passes)? Here’s how to know if you might be eligible to get a refund of some of the money you lost.
Starting today, and over the next month, the FTC will send emails to millions of Fortnite players who might be eligible to get some of their lost money back. The refunds come out of the FTC’s settlement with Epic Games announced last year.
Here’s what to know:
Watch for an email from the FTC via fortniterefund@rcnotifications.com — by or before October 19, 2023 — with instructions on how to file a claim.
If you don’t get an email by October 19, 2023, use your Epic account ID to file a claim. Or, call the administrator at 1-833-915-0880 or email admin@fortniterefund.com for help.
File your claim by January 17, 2024.
For more information, visit ftc.gov/Fortnite. And remember, the FTC will never ask you to pay money to file a claim. If someone says they can get you a refund if you pay them, that’s a scam. Report them at ReportFraud.ftc.gov. (https://terryreece.substack.co....m/p/the-ftc-says-cha AND (http://www.familymediasite.com..../the-ftc-says-charge)...CONT...😎🥹
