#Chegg has sued #Google for its #AI model stealing text from Chegg. In the lawsuit, Chegg relied primarily on anti-trust #law rather than simply #copyright law. Since Google already lost an anti-trust case last year, their case would seem to be stronger than other lawsuits against generative AI.

I can't shake the feeling that #HR is trying to fuck with my pay, I haven't been able to submit a timecard in *weeks* although they've assured my supervisor that not submitting won't affect payroll.... I'll believe it when I see it then happily eat my words 
until I can submit, I anxiously await each auto deposit to see - is this the week I stop getting paid?
I've almost debated signing up for #Chegg or #Fiverr just to have spot income to prevent the #anxiety

I found that one of my old assignments has been uploaded to #Chegg a website that seems to me to be about paying people to do your assignments. Apart from their weird and coopting "Honor shield" faculty partnership program, I am wondering if there is any way to I dunno, claim my copyright from them?
