# Unpaid Use of Genetic Codes in AI Research Sparks Anger in the Global South
## Key Points:
– Multinationals and researchers are exploring and collecting rare organisms worldwide for their genetic codes, leading to growing frustration in developing countries over the lack of compensation for their resources.
– Ribblehead quarry in North Yorkshire, UK, might seem an unlikely place, but researchers are delving into algae genetic codes there as part of the AI industrial revolution.
– Bupe Mwambingu and Emma Bolton collect algae samples and record various environmental factors like GPS coordinates, acidity, temperature, and light exposure for their research.
### Final Thoughts:
AI research undoubtedly advances with genetic code studies, but the ethical implications must not be overlooked. The uproar from the global south brings attention to the need for fair compensation and acknowledgment for the resources exploited in the pursuit of scientific progress. It’s essential to strike a balance between advancement and ethical conduct in the field of artificial intelligence.

Instruction: “You are a helpful assistant that creates unique images based on article titles. Create a brief visual description of what an image would look like for this title. Please pick a style of art from the following: Futurism, Impressionism, Romanticism, or Realism, be sure to consider the image should reflect an AI Robot Pirate theme during the Golden Age of Pirates.”
Prompt: Futurism style would be ideal for this title. The image would depict a futuristic AI robot pirate navigating through a vibrant, bustling marketplace in the Global South. The robot pirate would be extracting genetic codes from unwitting individuals, with a mix of anger and resistance visible on the faces of the crowd. The scene would be filled with advanced technology and a sense of tension, capturing the theme of exploitation and rebellion during the Golden Age of Pirates.
