1984, January 24th., Steve Jobs presented the first Macintosh Computer. We are glad to share our MAC POP Art, in tribute, in this Fediverse, to celebrate the 40th anniversary of that milestone with You, today.

It's not just that Midjourney #AI #imageGenerator used artworks of Blek le Rat & Shepard Fairey #Obey only, without their consent in pre-training aka preparation of #copyright violations on a massive scale.

At least the Midjourney situation isn't as bad for @art works of Rosalyn #Drexler, #Banksy and our #gfkDSGN as it is for:
Andy #Warhol, HR #Giger, Herman #Zapf, Paul #Klee & #Cezanne, Piet #Mondrian, MC #Escher, Roy #Lichtenstein, Tom #Wesselmann, Wassily #Kandinsky and even companies like #StudioGhibli

However, I would love to read what #FediArt followers and other #Artists are thinking about this development.

1973 #Ethernet as one of the defining information technologies in modern communication was developed at #PARC by Chuck Thackers for #Alto #Computer s. What Bob Metcalf, Butler Lampson, and Dave Boggs built for the #ARPAnet is connecting us all today— via the #Internet, & @fediverse.

So, in 2023 this one of the #IT #anniversaries and worth to look back into #Xerox PARC development with a #CHM tech video...
