It depends, but it's also going to push more adoption of open source AI models that can run locally, I'm seeing a pattern among the US and China when it comes to closed and open source AI models, they close when they feel they have the advantage, open up when they feel they don't. This has little to do with security and everything to do with control, the irony is that the ones that do go open and get the community behind them are the ones that have the real control, hence why we keep seeing this seesaw from closed to open. Ultimately, it's far too dangerous to let any one country or corporation to control AI, which is why open source AI or AI you can run locally on your hardware is very likely going to be the future of AI over the long run, this is especially the case as AI becomes more powerful and useful for user, privacy, security and censorship will become more of an issue for users and businesses. -

A person should only be required to click through to an article if they want to know more details. The headline should give basic facts. A basic fact would include the name of the service being shut down. -

That would probably be a good outcome, but it would also require other "features" be changed to comply, such as Auto play, scrolling, and advertising. Having the laws shift these platforms back to a socially responsible and useful places is a benefit for everyone. The addictive nature is the problem, and while many blame the individual, psychologists would suggest the platform is using a well trodden playbook to hook in more revenue.. -

It was a rather nice rant as I rather dislike when people support the shitifcation of the Internet. My comment also factually applied the definition of "clickbait' to this headline unlike your comment. I have been reading this site for some 20 years now so I will call them out when they are doing carp they shouldn't be doing but thanks for your concern. You can't even do a search by headline anymore to do a quick search to find something because most of the titles lack all the relevant keywords that should be there.

Question
Marshalus Veteran
Third time is a charm eh folks? I've got the funding, I've got the people, now I just need the logo!
HostFalcon.com, an internet service provider specializing in small business site hosting, has commissioned a contest to create a new and unique branding for their soon be opened business.
The winning logo will help set the tone for the layout, color and theme for the rest of the company web presence.
The contest will run for an undetermined length of time and participants from around the Internet community are encouraged to enter.
First prize is $40 AND 6 months of free hosting on a basic HostFalcon plan. Two runners up will receive 25% off any plan for three months.
Winners will be decided exclusively by the management of HostFalcon.
Requirements
The name of the company (HostFalcon) should be present on any logo design along with our slogan (Set your sites higher) if deemed feasible by the designer.
The branding elements should be on a white background and be easily applied to any white or light gray without recoloring. Any text used should be a sans-serif font. HostFalcon prefers the use of a simple and minimalist design.
Only Photoshop importable formats will be accepted.
Uses
The winning branding will be used on our website, in online and possible print advertisements, letter headers, company shirts, business cards, etc.
Exclusive rights must be provided to us by the author.
Good luck!

Additional Information
The following issues have come up through the thread.
- A cash prize has been added.
- You can submit as many variations or alternative designs as you wish.
- Please keep the negitive comments on other peoples work to yourself.
- Please do not ask for public feedback from me on your submission.
APRIL 3 UPDATE: The entry process is now closed. Unless you come up with something breathtaking we're going to use what we've taken so far and make a choice from there. We have narrowed the field down to about 5 logos that stand out from the rest as being the type of branding we'd be able to use and would help set us apart a bit from our competitors.
I have no timeline on getting a winner announced. Of course I'll let everyone know when that happens.
Thanks everyone for the great submissions, you've made it really hard for the judges to choose a winner.
