A quick note before we start.
Dina Temple-RastonHOST
Twice a month, we team up with WAMU and NPR's One A News magazine for something we call Cyber Monday, and this time I spoke with One A's Jen White about a question that's getting harder and harder to answer.
Dina Temple-RastonHOST
Can generative AI actually be creative, or is it just copying the rest of us? [instrumental music] That question has been playing out in courtrooms all summer.
Dina Temple-RastonHOST
In May, a group of major publishing houses sued Meta, accusing the company of using millions of books and articles to build its generative AI models.

Jackson Synenberg from our partner station WAMU has the story.
Jackson SynenbergCORRESPONDENT
Senators Mark Warner and Tim Kaine want to make sure there is not another tragedy like the DCA crash that killed 67 people last January.

Previous attempts to roll back service at DCA have failed in Congress, likely because many lawmakers use it to conveniently travel to and from their districts.
