Image: Squid Shock Studios Humble Games “restructured” and reportedly laid off its 36-person team last week. The publisher, which is part of the IGN-owned Humble Bundle, started helping developers release games in 2017 and published notable games like Slay the Spire and Signalis. The resulting fallout from the layoffs has left developers working with the publisher uncertain about many plans for future games, leaving their console ports in jeopardy. Amir Fassihi, studio director of Dead Mage, the team behind the in-development Wizard of Legend 2, is worried that the restructuring could impact their project. “We do not want to make any changes,” Fassihi tells The Verge. “However, we’re unsure what changes will be forced on us because everyone in the publisher we...

Image: The Verge / Shutterstock Several weeks after being targeted with copyright infringement lawsuits, AI music startups Suno and Udio have now accused the record labels that filed them of attempting to stifle competition within the music industry. Both companies admitted to training their music-generating AI models on copyrighted materials in separate legal filings, arguing that doing so is lawful under fair-use doctrine. The lawsuits against Suno and Udio were raised in June by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), a group representing major record labels like Universal Music Group (UMG), Sony Music Entertainment, and Warner Records.

LICHTENSTEIN—The citizens of this small alpine country in the middle of Europe are abuzz as they are set to take the gold medal in the the 100 meter dash with the first ever biological cheetah who identifies as a human running for the country. The runner, who goes by the name Coco, has smashed all European sprinting records and is poised to win Olympic gold in record fashion. Some have raised concerns about the first ever trans-human competing in the games after Coco mauled several of his opponents in the Commonwealth games earlier this year, but the Lichtenstein Olympic Committee Chair says that those problems are behind him. “Coco is just one of a kind. I’ve never thought I would see a man run at nearly 60 miles an hour. Sure, he’s had his ups and downs as a sprinter, but he deserves this chance to become the fastest man alive,” LOC Chair Fritz Bernhardt said. Coco will likely be the favorite in the competition, while just two years ago, he was relaxing on the African savannah, eyeing delicious zebra meat. “It’s been an amazing journey. One that will go down in history,” Bernhardt said. “People say, that cheetah is a cheater,” Coco said through a translator in his first press conference before the Olympics. “I get it. Very punny. But I’ve worked just as hard as anyone out here and I don’t have any biological advantage over these other men, so people need to stop with the hate.” Lichtenstein has never received any medal during the Summer Olympics. Coco’s would be the first. Originally published July 5, 2021.
