OpenAI failed to deliver the opt-out tool it promised by 2025
Back in May, OpenAI said it was developing a tool to let creators specify how they want their works to be included in — or excluded from — its AI training
I first heard Joe O’Connor , CEO and Co-founder of Work Time Reduction, on a Forbes panel called “Beyond Burnout Band-Aids” and found what he had to say about the relationship between well-being and productivity enlightening. I asked him to speak with me about his work. Joe defines burnout as exha
