Andy and both Michaels get together to talk tech — focusing on AI generated music, security & privacy.  

Starting off with the news about Suno.ai, the co-hosts discuss what generative AI music might be like, and what it may mean from a copyright perspective.  This prompts Michael M to remember the Wired CD published in 2004, specifically designed to be ripped, sampled and remixed.  

The team takes a moment to consider the news of the United States Department of Justice bringing a complaint against Apple as outlined by the post from Sixcolors.

Then, the team moves to a plethora of articles dealing with security and privacy.  An intriguing post from IanVisits details how pendulums are used as a source of randomness at the Cloudflare offices in London.  Next up is a story about Glassdoor now requiring real names, and the fallout from that.  Then, a discussion about The Stack, and how you can determine whether your content has been included in it or not.  Last is a TechCrunch article dealing with LinkedIn’s reported plans to add gaming to the platform.
