    Why SB1047 sucks, data privacy + watermarking

    This short ep sees us tallking about data privacy, SB1047 (Californian AI bill), what a new world looks like + more Thanks for joining us were inspired by early bulletin board systems and online communities where a project that's just getting started. But our goal is to make tech more human for the public and to reduce monopolies, you can get in touch with @ thething.co and until next week. Stay curious.

    Best viewed on youtube! https://youtu.be/SmZLS4BjN7g?feature=shared Welcome to The Thing! We're a non-profit media studio making machine learning more human through stories and education. Think a chaotic good 4chan meets a more artistic Wikipedia, building a free digital commons for everyone. Ever wondered how a company actually gets built? (lol same).This is part one of us saying wth we're doing. Join us (Madisen and Renee) in part one of our origin story, as we share how we met, our approach to open company building (yes, we're showing you actual meetings!), and our vision for merging tech and media. Connect with us Slack:https://join.slack.com/t/buildingthething/shared_invite/zt-2f6cjnsw7-PJkw8iqsG26rECzat60a8Q Email: hello@thething.co We're exploring- Machine learning AI for social good Open company building And much more!
