A couple of interesting bits in this article about a large public domain book dataset, but perhaps the most important thing that is maybe not obvious to a lot of folks: the embargoes on the scans made for the Google Books Project are *finally* starting to end!: www.wired.com/story/harvar... 📜📚
Harvard Is Releasing a Massive Free AI Training Dataset Funded by OpenAI and Microsoft
The project’s leader says that allowing everyone to access the collection of public-domain books will help “level the playing field” in the AI industry.

Interesting thread about Altmetric Score
THREAD

So your Attention Score went down because people are rage-deleting their Twitter accounts.

Why is that happening? Should I be worried? Should I see my doctor?

Let's get into what the Attention Score actually is, how it's impacted by posts and deletions, WITH THE HELP OF MEMES.

Very happy to see this out. It was a pleasure to work with the students at the ILP Lab under the supervision of @jpquintais.bsky.social. This is a much understudied aspect of mass digitization of public domain works in the age of AI, and I look forward to follow-up conversations based on this.
“Demonopolizing the European Public Domain” is a new report produced with ILP Lab.

It examines Google Books exclusivity clauses and the Open Data Directive, and how they affect the #PublicDomain and European libraries' collections.
