Love when I’m told to “put up or shut up”—I get to do nothing AND not talk to anyone.

I was tagged into a conversation on overlays on LinkedIn (a platform I avoid) and apparently the Overlay Community Group is having its desired effect since some folks believe it will create overlay guidelines. It won’t. It’s just chaff.

Stack Overflow wants AI companies to pay up for training on its data, too.

The company is the latest to demand payment for training data, following Reddit and various publishers around the world. Wired has the story:

> “Community platforms that fuel LLMs absolutely should be compensated for their contributions so that companies like us can reinvest back into our communities to continue to make them thrive,” Stack Overflow’s Chandrasekar says. “We’re very supportive of Reddit’s approach.”
