How does NBA media reporting work?
Why are some people sharing Giannis rumors & others not?
What's true and what's misinformation?
Got into all of that, plus other Celtics thoughts, in the latest You Got Boston podcast, premiering at 5:15pm:

Good.
Let's see just how much the public does - or, likely more accurately, doesn't - enjoy AI imagery that inherently makes people feel like companies are trying to deceive them with something fake (because they are.)
Any advertisements in New York that feature artificial intelligence-generated people in place of actors will now be violating state law if they don't clearly label that they have used a “synthetic performer.” abcnews.link/6YhUc3c

Unreal. Justice Department staff were railroaded again by political interference in the Paramount-Warner Bros merger review.
None of the investigators on the deal had any role in writing the unprecedented clearance statement issued by DOJ last Friday.

WSJ reporting making clear that DOJ decision to clear Paramount/WBD merger had nothing to do with the facts or the law and everything to do with corruption
BREAKING WSJ:
The Trump Justice Department's senior leadership closed an investigation of Paramount's bid for Warner Bros. Discovery before career staffers who were concerned about the acquisition had an opportunity to object, according to people familiar with the matter.

Arizona Gov. Katie Hobbs has signed a budget that includes a three-year moratorium on new data center tax breaks.
Hobbs had proposed ending the tax incentives altogether, but with Arizona's Republican legislature the agreement reached was for a three-year new tax break moratorium that will save an estimated $57 million while allowing data center development to continue.

Fox has reached an agreement to acquire Roku for $22 billion, after already buying Tubi for $440 million in 2020.
This marks the latest case of media consolidation in an industry controlled by a smaller and smaller number of huge corporations.

A Paramount-WBD merger would hit Atlanta *hard*:
- 6K layoffs will hit ATL heavy due to overlapping back-end ops
- Turner/WBD’s Techwood campus may be sold
- Fewer films = less work for Trilith, Assembly, Shadowspace
- This is AFTER huge cuts at TCM, Adult Swim & Cartoon Network

A German court has ruled that Google is liable for the false statements generated by its AI Overviews feature. The ruling could have massive impacts on the world's biggest search engine, which recently doubled down on giving users AI-generated results.

I've been predicted the death of cable for a while now. Fox (which on cable is only news and sports channels) solved the problem for themselves by buying the distribution network.

Today is my 30th birthday! If you have the means, I would love you forever if you got me the gift of donating $30 to any of the campaigns in my linktree. If you can’t do $30, can you take the last donation and give the difference to add to 30? linktr.ee/hoolier

Lol all the old guards who came out of Stanford are so out of touch "why don't they eat cake" style.

The stupidity of these @Stanford students to take the greatest opportunity for equality in humanity ever and to really free humanity and go walk out on @google and @sundarpichai that's pioneered that. Biased, idiotic, short-sighted and very selfish. Selfish because they ignored the bottom 3 billion people on this planet that could benefit from AI and they are worried about their misinformed selfish self-interest.

Silicon Valley thinks brilliant founders should be able to maintain personal controlling interest in the economy's largest firms. But that's only plausible under a very particular set of policy circumstances, and we don't have to agree to impose them.
