Wow, the astrocartography rumor really is true. Someone has registered a trademark for the word in France and has a pending application for the entire EU. They are now sending out cease and desist letters to multiple astrologers and teachers claiming ownership of it. That is super gross.
Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

Today we wish Bob Dylan a happy 85th birthday.
Listen to this excerpt from Dylan's Nobel Prize lecture where he reflects on the literary influences that shaped his songwriting. Classic works like 'Moby-Dick', 'All Quiet on the Western Front', and 'The Odyssey' informed his understanding of storytelling and human nature.

How do we train AI to understand what will restore and maintain a regenerative planet?
We must find data that reflects the realities of nature, ask permission from those who steward and research it, prepare the data, and make it available to AI toolmakers. Then we repeat the process.
That’s what we are doing at the Growing Earth Codes Data Commons (ECDC).
