The launch, held at Pos Centre of Development (PosCODE) in Bangi
By The Malketeer When a judge orders OpenAI to hand over more than 20 million ChatGPT logs, you’d think this is another chapter in the AI vs. journalism copyright war. Beneath the legal jargon sits a deeper story about trust, privacy, and how brands should behave when consumers start wondering
By The Malketeer Most intellectual property owners guard their creations like family heirlooms — precious, untouchable, often frozen in time. Lat does the opposite. Malaysia’s beloved Seniman Negara (National Artiste), Datuk Mohammad Nor Mohammad Khalid — simply Lat to generations — has just handed the creative industry a masterclass in
By The Malketeer When the world’s biggest advertising network hires the world’s most famous consulting firm to help “reset” its strategy, two things are clear.
