AI and the Law – Netflix : Using Generative AI in Content Production
https://www.cartoonbrew.com/business/netflix-generative-ai-use-guidelines-253300.html
- Temporary Use: AI-generated material can be used for ideation, visualization, and exploration—but is currently considered temporary and not part of final deliverables.
- Ownership & Rights: All outputs must be carefully reviewed to ensure rights, copyright, and usage are properly cleared before integrating into production.
- Transparency: Productions are expected to document and disclose how generative AI is used.
- Human Oversight: AI tools are meant to support creative teams, not replace them—final decision-making rests with human creators.
- Security & Compliance: Any use of AI tools must align with Netflix’s security protocols and protect confidential production material.

FFmpeg – examples and convenience lines
# extract one frame at the end of a video
ffmpeg -sseof -0.1 -i intro_1.mp4 -frames:v 1 -q:v 1 intro_end.jpg
-sseof -0.1: This option tells FFmpeg to seek to 0.1 seconds before the end of the file. This approach is often more reliable for extracting the last frame, especially if the video’s duration isn’t an exact multiple of the frame interval.
Super User
-frames:v 1: Extracts a single frame.
-q:v 1: Sets the quality of the output image; 1 is the highest quality.# extract one frame at the beginning of a video
ffmpeg -i speaking_4.mp4 -frames:v 1 speaking_beginning.jpg# check video length
ffmpeg -i C:\myvideo.mp4 -f null –# Convert mov/mp4 to animated gifEdit
(more…)
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -pix_fmt rgb24 output.gif

The Color of Infinite Temperature
This is the color of something infinitely hot.
Of course you’d instantly be fried by gamma rays of arbitrarily high frequency, but this would be its spectrum in the visible range.
johncarlosbaez.wordpress.com/2022/01/16/the-color-of-infinite-temperature/
This is also the color of a typical neutron star. They’re so hot they look the same.
It’s also the color of the early Universe!This was worked out by David Madore.
The color he got is sRGB(148,177,255).
