I don’t want an AI summary of my Google search. I don’t want an AI summary of the text message from my friend at work. I don’t want an AI summary of the email I’m about to read. Please just stop.

@hidingintheburg @jdmcphersonjr YES! He scored the whole series, and is killing it! Noticed he slipped in one of his songs from his last album in the most recent episode! (And isn’t that show SO fun??)

The same applies to all artists. Writers, Actors, Youtubers, Illustrators, Animators, 3D Artists, Game Devs, musicians, programmers the list goes on.

Speak up & stand together or let AI companies continue to STEAL from us. Not just our labour & careers, but our dreams & worth.

I have a moral obligation to post this on all my social media, today. Thank you for understanding. Have a lovely day.

My favorite shitty response to this is that musicians should “stick to music.” As if these particular citizens of the USA should not have opinions, especially this guy, a small business owner & American entrepreneur. PREACH, JACK!

Rock icon Jack White slams Trump's transformation of the Oval Office in a new Instagram post:

"Look at how disgusting trump has transformed the historic White House. It's now a vulgar, gold leafed and gaudy, professional wrestler's dressing room. Can't wait for the UFC match on the front lawn too, he's almost fully achieved the movie "Idiocracy". Look at his disgusting taste, would you even buy a used car from this conman, let alone give him the nuclear codes? A gold plated trump bible would look perfect up on that mantle with a pair of trump shoes on either side wouldn't it? What an embarrassment to American history. Also pictured in this photograph, a REAL leader of a nation in a black suit."

Jack White, with a reminder that this is how a true American patriot feels about the overt, obvious fuckery happening around us, daily.

Do you guys remember talking to that dude who only admitted to liking “Electric Co?” Fucking U2 hipster.

Yes, the long reign of late-night has been coming to a slow end due to the internet, but don't be fooled: There's much more than money at the root of this show's demise. https://t.co/ghpXtzZ5vj

WATCH: Video appears to show an officer punching a protester multiple times during the protester's arrest. 13 protesters, including at least one journalist, were arrested after the protests turned into an impromptu march across the Roebling Bridge. https://t.co/a4rnJxBBLU

Messages from Matt and the band:

After 27 fantastic years, I have taken my final steps down the drum riser for the mighty Pearl Jam. Much love and respect to Jeff, Ed, Mike and Stone for inviting me into the band in 1998 and for giving me the opportunity of a lifetime, filled with friendships, artistry, challenges and laughter. I am forever grateful to the crew, staff and fans the world over. It’s been an incredible journey. More to follow. I thank you all from the bottom of my heart.

Peace and Love,
Matt Cameron.

Message from the band:

From being one of our first musical heroes in the bands Skinyard and the mighty Soundgarden, to playing on our first demos in 1990, Matt Cameron has been a singular and true powerhouse of a musician and drummer.

He has propelled the last 27 years of Pearl Jam live shows and studio recordings. It was a deeply important chapter for our group and we wish him well always. He will be deeply missed and is forever our friend in art and music.

We love you Matt.
