Seems like cole has now joined chelsea.

If anything i think cole is stupid and Gallas is great for going to arsenal where he can get better football.

I'm not to fond of chelsea because of there money but because they have great players but like not used often.

Cole will get around 90k a week on a 5 year contract so thats about 23 mill. jeez some clubs will never have a wage bill like that for every player they ever had on the books all at the same time.

Deadline deals as they happened

Transfer deadline day

England defender Ashley Cole completed his much-anticipated move from Arsenal to Chelsea.

Chelsea signed the 25-year-old while their defender William Gallas went to the Gunners in exchange.

Jose Antonio Reyes was signed by Real Madrid, in a swap deal which saw Julio Baptista coming to Arsenal.

Earlier on Thursday, West Ham sealed a sensational deal, signing Argentina's World Cup pair of Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano.

Good riddence to Cole.

Now hopefully Arsenal can start playing football.

Gallas is a better prospect.

Reyes gone on loan, we get Baptista, however Reyes is still contracted till 2011 so I hope we get plenty

for him when he refuses to come back to Arsenal.

Robert Huth has failed to complete his move to Middlesbrough. Chelsea appear to have held on to 22-year-old Huth because of fellow centre-back William Gallas's switch to Arsenal.

Nope.

Middlesbrough have confirmed they have completed the signing of Chelsea defender Robert Huth.

As the transfer deadline passed last night there was no official confirmation from either party regarding a deal for the German international, but Keith Lamb has now told Sky Sports News that the transfer was registered before the close of the window.

With Peter Kenyon firmly engaged in The Blues' bid to sign Ashley Cole, Boro had to wait to sign their second stopper following the loan capture of Jonathan Woodgate.

Lamb admitted at the unveiling of the Real Madrid star that Huth's transfer was awaiting a signature from Kenyon, and as the deadline passed the deal looked in doubt.

Some reports suggested that with William Gallas leaving to join Arsenal, Chelsea were ready to retain Huth, but Lamb has now assuaged such fears.

After an abortive earlier attempt to bring Huth to The Riverside, when he failed a medical, Southgate has now captured the 22-year-old stopper.

And what a transfer for the Hammers. Very strange but still you cant complain about having them two at your squad.

i think that if gallas didnt go in this transfer window he would have gone in january. Chealse with all the money they have only have 2 center halves with terry and carvalho, ok buloruhz can play ther too but they could have dun with another.

West Ham are engaged in 'exploratory discussions' over a possible takeover, but the club insist talks are at a very early stage.

Kia Joorabchian, the owner of Media Sport Investment, has long been linked with a possible takeover of the East London club.

MSI were also the company involved in the remarkable transfer deadline day signings of Argentine duo Carlos Tevez and Javier Mascherano.

But The Hammers are adamant there is no 'contractual' link between a possible takeover and the signing of the 22-year-old pair.

A statement to the Stock Exchange from West Ham read: "The board confirms that it has had exploratory discussions in relation to a possible bid but these discussions are at a very early stage and there can be no certainty that an offer for West Ham will be forthcoming.

"The board also confirms that there is no contractual link between the signing of the players [Tevez and Mascherano] and the bid discussions."

Interesting :p. I wan't more frigging detail's of the Tevez and Mascherano signing's. The fact that no information about contract length or transfer fee's have been released is very suspicious.

    • This got me thinking, would you rather a self driving car prioritise protecting its passengers or everyone else? I'd choose the one that keeps me and my kids safest. At some point, these cars have to make those choices already, don't they? Wonder if we have a way to find out what way they lean.
    • The proportion (or number of iterations) has nothing to with this aspect of Copyright I am describing. In short, it doesn't matter how many times the manager tells you to change something or how. Your work product is always YOURS until and unless you then assign that to the person representing the client/company, usually for financial compensation -- either in salary or as a subcontract work for hire payment. if iterations determined copyright, then businesses would have learned to just keep making changes until they could claim they owned the copyright, without having to compensate the artist for their work. And that would be BAD. The only place where the amount of changes does have a role is in how much does a human modify a previous public domain work (from any source) before it is considered fair use or their own work, etc. For example, if a human makes substantial changes to a public domain (re: AI, by definition) work, then they can then claim that derivative work as their own...but NEVER the original version, of course. That's why anyone can make a movie about Dracula, for example, as long as it is based on the public domain novel, but not if they take new ideas from copyrighted movies made afterwards. As one of the people who personally advised the US Copyright Office on their recent ruling on these very issues, be assured that I specifically used the terminology precisely -- though I made it simple enough for laymen to understand it. If I made this confusing by doing so, I apologize. But, to be clear regarding your assumption that I would agree to your second statement that I quoted above -- the answer is NO. If AI does the work, no matter how much "direction" you give it, it cannot be copyrighted. All AI generated content is in the Public Domain and therefore the copyright cannot be assigned to ANYONE, even you -- until and unless substantial modifications are made to it BY A HUMAN BEING (yourself or a contracted artist/writer/etc.) and then that copyright on the derivative work is legally (in writing) transferred to you. This is a critical distinction. And it is important that people, especially AI sloppers, understand this. For example, YouTube is not paying AI slop generators for the copyright, etc. of their AI slop. What YouTube is doing is sharing AD REVENUE for permission to publish your AI slop. Copyright/ownership/rights never come into it. Importantly, that means that anyone can copy any AI slopware on YouTube, etc. and rehost it anywhere they want, even back on YouTube, and there is nothing legal that YouTube can do about it with regards to copyright protections, ownership, DMCA, etc. Anyone is legally free to use any AI slopware in any way they want. When this ruling was pending, I warned Disney legal of all of this before they did their OpenAI deal -- that it would literally dilute their entire IP portfolio forever. They ignored that warning for the PR and stock bump. But that is why, when the ruling came down last year, Disney quickly extricated themselves from that OpenAI deal, even eating the initial upfront fees -- followed closely by OpenAI ending their entire AI video generating business model. They adjusted their PR release dates to make this less obvious to shareholders, of course. Phew. I hope that this clears up the key distinctions for you and anyone reading. If you have any additional questions or even hypotheticals about AI and Copyright, please feel free to ask.
