An AI-Generated Country Song Is Topping A Billboard Chart, And That Should Infuriate Us All
| 2025-11-08
An AI-generated country song is topping a Billboard chart, stoking a fresh debate over authenticity and how charts treat synthetic artists. “Walk My Walk” by Breaking Rust hit No. 1 on Country Digital Song Sales, raising questions about disclosure, bot-inflated metrics, and where Billboard draws the line. https://www.whiskeyriff.com/2025/11/08/an-ai-generated-country-song-is-topping-a-billboard-chart-and-that-should-infuriate-us-all/


Using Generative AI in Content Production
| n.d.
Netflix outlines when productions can use generative AI and what must be cleared before anything hits the screen. Ideation is generally low-risk, but final deliverables, digital replicas of talent, personal data, or third-party IP require written approval and enterprise-grade safeguards, backed by a handy use-case matrix. https://partnerhelp.netflixstudios.com/hc/en-us/articles/43393929218323-Using-Generative-AI-in-Content-Production


LLMs Can Get “Brain Rot”!
| 2025-10-15
The paper “LLMs Can Get "Brain Rot!” dials down on the risk that large language models degrade when trained on their own outputs instead of diverse human data. It collects early research and symptoms—like blandness, repetition, and drifting facts—framing the problem in plain language for non-specialists and policymakers.

GPT-5.1: A smarter, more conversational ChatGPT
| 2025-11-12
OpenAI announced GPT-5.1, aiming for a smarter, more conversational ChatGPT rolling out to paid users first. Two flavors—Instant and Thinking—promise better instruction following, clearer reasoning that adapts to task difficulty, and new controls to shape tone so responses feel warmer or more precise.

GitHub - toon-format/toon: Token-Oriented Object Notation (TOON) – Compact, human-readable, schema-aware JSON for LLM prompts. Spec, benchmarks, TypeScript SDK.
| 2025-11-10
Token-Oriented Object Notation (TOON) pitches a compact, schema-aware alternative to JSON for LLM prompts. With a v1.0 release on November 10 and a TypeScript SDK, TOON targets uniform arrays for major token savings while keeping lossless structure—positioning it as a pragmatic bridge between JSON and model-friendly text. https://github.com/toon-format/toon
