Ready to crack open the complexities of AI copyrighting? Prepare to immerse yourself in an ocean of technology dilemmas, as we bring you an exploration of AI's role in the creative world and the controversies that surround it. Sparked by a recent ruling barring AI from receiving copyrights, we'll dissect the case of Stephen Thaler's AI-generated artwork 'Recent Entrance to Paradise' and its subsequent denial of copyright due to lack of human authorship. As we question what truly constitutes an 'original' work, you'll be left pondering the future of AI and its impact on creativity.

Ever wondered how AI bias can lead to the spread of misinformation? Brace yourself for a humorous yet alarming discussion on Google AI's ridiculous responses and the potential consequences of such errors. Using the Angel of Death Mushroom as an example, we'll highlight how inadvertently, AI can become a vessel of incorrect data. We are also going to scrutinize ground-breaking research on AI and how it's available for public testing. 

As we move to the darker side of technology, we will touch upon the world of cyber protection and the necessity of VPNs. With Google Chrome's impending malware detector and Elon Musk's contentious decisions about his X platform, we aim to keep you informed about the growing need for cyber safety. And just when you think the twists and turns are over, we dive into the controversy surrounding Musk's decision to remove the blocking feature from Twitter. From increased toxicity to potential app store violations, we've got it all covered. So, don your thinking cap, pour yourself a glass of whiskey and get ready for an enlightening journey through the world of tech - the good, the bad, and the ugly.

This week on TechTime with Nathan Mumm®, Despite its best efforts, AI cannot get copyrights for original artwork. Googles' new AI lets testers know the benefits of genocide, among other ridiculous and wrong answers. Neuroscientists have been able to recreate a Pink Floyd song from brainwaves. And is Elon trying to wreck the Platform Formally Known As Twitter?
