Quote by Gideon Haigh

“Since inception, the IPL has worn its brand value like a corroboration of inner virtue. On the eve of this tournament, under the headline 'Brand IPL touches the sky', the league's website reverberated with the announcement that Brand Finance, a branding consultancy, had valued the brand value of the IPL brand at $4.13 billion worth of brand—which is a lot of brand, brand-wise.”

“Since Modi's Mumbai sign-off, much commentary has been focused on the brand-dilution potential inherent in its scandals. MS Dhoni doesn't think we should worry: 'IPL as a brand can survive on its own.' Shilpa Shetty, 'brand ambassador' of the Rajasthan Royals, tweets that we should: 'Custodians of Cricket must not hamper d Brandvalue of this viable sport.' Hampering d Brandvalue, insists new IPL boss Chirayu Amin, is the furthest thing from his mind: 'IPL's brand image is strong and nobody can touch that.' Harsha Bhogle, however, frets for the nation: 'Within the cricket world, Brand India will take a hit.' Not much more than a week after Modi's first tell-all tweets, the media was anxiously consulting Brand Finance's managing director, Unni Krishnan. Had there been any brand dilution yet? It was, said the soothsayer gravely, 'too early to say'. He could, however, confirm the following: 'The wealth that can be created by the brand is going to be substantially significant for many stakeholders. A conducive ecosystem has to be created to move the brand to the next level… We have to build the requisite bandwidth to monetise these opportunities.' Er, yeah… what he said. Anyway, placing a value on the IPL brand has clearly been quite beneficial to Brand Finance's brand.”

“All of this evokes the dicta of successful historic propagandists described earlier. From Alinsky's Rules for Radicals: >"Ridicule is man's most potent weapon." >"Keep the pressure on. Never let up." > "development of operations that will keep a constant pressure on the opposition." >"Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it." >"Not every item of news should be published. Rather must those who control news policies endeavor to make every item of news serve a certain purpose." >"Propaganda must facilitate the displacement of aggression by specifying the targets for hatred.”

“To excuse one for human assistance yet condemn another for AI assistance is a serious mistake the literary world is making — one that future generations will not forgive. AI will, without doubt, be recognized as a legitimate part of the creative process. And when that time comes, those future generations will look back and measure the damage caused by today’s double standards — the barriers that silenced authentic voices and denied deserving writers recognition and opportunity simply for using technology to express their feelings, share their visions, and communicate their experiences with the world.”

“Jilly Cooper's dazzling tales of glamour captivated millions — including Queen Camilla, who hailed her as a “legend.” Yet she was not immune to scandal: Private Eye exposed her plagiarism, which she later admitted. The literary world accepted her admission and soon forgot about it. In a similar situation, however, the same world reacted with outrage when Japanese author Rie Kudan admitted to using AI. This double standard raises the question: why is human borrowing accepted as part of the creative process, but AI is not?”
