Moonvalley, an AI research firm, raises $84 million to expand its AI video platform Marey, with total funding reaching $154 million, thanks to leaders like General Catalyst, Creative Artists Agency, and Comcast Ventures. The company stands out by using strictly licensed content for training its AI, addressing copyright concerns and planning to enhance tools, content library, and partnerships for the entertainment industry. Meta targets "unoriginal" content on Facebook, aiming to curb the spread of duplicated material by implementing restrictions and testing a feature to guide viewers to original videos. This crackdown, which has already seen millions of profiles addressed for violations, focuses on reducing AI-generated content duplication without penalizing creative adaptations. Military veterans are being eyed as a valuable resource to fill the cybersecurity talent gap, with programs at MyComputerCareer offering tailored IT certification courses. These efforts aim to transition veterans into cybersecurity roles within six to ten months, leveraging their unique skills to address a significant industry shortage.
