Meanwhile, U.S. downloads for OpenAI competitor Anthropic’s Claude jumped up by 37% day-over-day on Friday, February 27, and 51% as of Saturday, February 28, after the company announced that it would not partner with the U.S. defense department. Anthropic said it was not able to agree on the deal terms over concerns that AI would be used to surveil Americans and be used in fully autonomous weaponry, which AI is not yet ready to do safely.

A set of consumers seemingly favored Anthropic’s position on the matter, the data suggests.

In addition, ChatGPT’s download growth was impacted by the news of its DoD partnership, with its U.S. downloads dropping by 13% day-over-day on Saturday, shortly after the news of its deal went public. Those downloads continued to fall on Sunday, when they were down by 5% day-over-day. (Before the partnership was announced, the app’s downloads had grown 14% day-over-day on Friday.)

These rapid changes were also reflected in Claude’s App Store ranking, as the app hit No. 1 on the U.S. App Store on Saturday, where it continues to sit as of Monday, March 2. That’s a jump of over 20 ranks compared with roughly a week before (February 22, 2026).

Case involved visual art made by AI technology
U.S. Copyright Office rejected copyright application
Copyright was denied because art lacked a human creator
WASHINGTON, March 2 (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court declined on Monday to take up the issue of whether art generated by artificial intelligence can be copyrighted under U.S. law, turning ‌away a case involving a computer scientist from Missouri who was denied a copyright for a piece of visual art made by his AI system.
Plaintiff Stephen Thaler had appealed to the justices after lower courts upheld a U.S. Copyright Office decision that the AI-crafted visual art at issue in the case was ineligible for copyright protection because it did not have a human creator.
Thaler, of St. Charles, Missouri, applied for ⁠a federal copyright registration in 2018 covering "A Recent Entrance to Paradise," visual art he said his AI technology "DABUS" created. The image shows train tracks entering a portal, surrounded by what appears to be green and purple plant imagery.
The Copyright Office rejected his application in 2022, finding that creative works must have human authors to be eligible to receive a copyright.
U.S. President Donald Trump's administration had urged the Supreme Court not to hear Thaler's appeal.
The Copyright Office has separately rejected bids by artists for copyrights on images generated by the AI system Midjourney. Those artists argued that they were entitled to copyrights for images they created with AI assistance - unlike Thaler, who said his system created "A Recent ‌Entrance to ⁠Paradise" independently.
A federal judge in Washington upheld the office's decision in Thaler's case in 2023, writing that human authorship is a "bedrock requirement of copyright." The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit affirmed the ruling in 2025.
Thaler's lawyers told the Supreme Court in a filing that his case was of "paramount importance" considering the rapid rise of generative AI.
With a refusal by the ⁠court to hear the appeal, Thaler's lawyers said, "even if it later overturns the Copyright Office's test in another case, it will be too late. The Copyright Office will have irreversibly and negatively impacted AI development and use in the creative industry during ⁠critically important years."
"Although the Copyright Act does not define the term 'author,' multiple provisions of the act make clear that the term refers to a human rather than a machine," the administration said.
The Supreme Court previously rejected Thaler's request, opens new tab ⁠to hear his argument in a separate case involving prototypes for a beverage holder and a light beacon concerning whether AI-generated inventions should be eligible for U.S. patent protection. His patent applications were rejected by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on similar grounds.

Nobody else is going to care about this but I personally wonder how that will affect the "make your own animated story with AI" thing from a few months/years ago. Their plan was for you to rewrite parts of a movie/show you dont like with AI to get the story/ending you prefer, but the copyrights would go to them (because it's their original IP). This looks like it would kill it.

..D..Defeat?

also if you would like some real primo rage bait and to torture your audience with black people a 12 year old black girl got like horrifically raped and had like rocks shoved in her by black boys in Florida and multiple family members of the boys have tried to defend them. It's sort of a come to Jesus moment for the black community right now.

The video of the aunt talking about her nephew rubber bands from awful to hilarious at points. I will admit I lost it when she said she told her 13 year old nephew that he was and I quote "goofy" for running a train on a twelve year old with a bunch of boys.


One of the boys dads also showed up and did a sphiel about it being evil to send black men to prison.


The black community is probably only asking for responsibility because the girl was black.
