Look at what Google's AI just did to a Japanese artist...It permanently banned their entire Google account, simply for uploading their own old manga files to Drive. The artist's appeal was rejected. An algorithm decided that an artist's work was a violation.And they didn't just lose Drive. Gmail, YouTube, every service.. gone! Artists must take care. Never rely solely on the cloud for irreplaceable items like your own copyrighted data. Physical storage is the best approach.#Google #GoogleDrive #GoogleAI #AI #Artist #Manga

The flooding at the Greenford London subway station has been reduced by around 90% thanks to... *checks notes* ...a family of beavers. After conservationists reintroduced a group of beavers into a nearby city park, the animals began building dams, and the wetlands they created now absorb and slow floodwater naturally. City officials had been planning major flood infrastructure works, but the beavers effectively created them on their own — while also boosting biodiversity and restoring the ecosystem around them. I think the money the city would have spent on anti-flooding infrastructure should go to the beavers, don't you? 🦫 🦫 🦫 #Animals #Environment #Flooding #London
