Pleased that Ministers have listened, done the right thing, and taken the proposed opt out off the table. It is also positive that copyright reform more broadly is not one of the four focus areas the Government says it is taking forward in its statement. #AI #copyright #IP Read the Copyright and AI Progress Statement made by Liz Kendall, Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, below: questions-statements.parliam… @leicesterliz @SciTechgovuk

Watching the tense Liverpool v Arsenal game yesterday and can’t help appreciate the successful use and rollout of VAR. Through the development of the semi-automated offside system with the @premierleague and @GeniusSports, VAR has now been adopted around the world because other leagues know it has been trained on licensed data.
