 Good morning: One of the potential intriguing uses of AI for artists is the ability to create AI versions of themselves that can be out there working when the artist is at home (or elsewhere, even dead).

And word that James Earl Jones licensed LucasFilm to use his very distinctive voice in new projects before he died. No rules of the road yet for how these AIs are used and what the rights are. Here are today’s top stories. And below, as usual, all the stories we collected. - Italy’s Culture Minister Resigns Amid Scandal Italy’s culture minister Gennaro Sangiuliano resigns after a media storm regarding his appointment of ex-mistress Maria Rosaria Boccia to a government position, sparking public outrage.
