Bedauerlich. Ich benutze weder X, Instagram oder Facebook. Dann eben nicht. Meiner Meinung nach sollten aber deutsche Behรถrden rechtsextreme Plattformen wie X nicht legitimieren.

@Gargron Da die deutschen Behรถrden zunehmend selbst rechtsextrem werden passt es doch nur das sie dann auch auf rechtsextremen Plattformen unterwegs sind.

US accuses Russia of 2024 election interference


RT boss Margarita Simonyan was one of 10 people sanctioned for alleged attempts to harm "public trust in our institutions".

Attorney General Merrick Garland accused state broadcaster RT, formerly Russia Today, of paying a Tennessee firm $10m to "create and distribute content to US audiences with hidden Russian government messaging".

"Three things are certain in life: death, taxes and RT's interference in the US elections."

Others have said this, but the Internet Archive's appeals-court loss to Big Publishing is a disaster for everyone but the cartel of companies and a tiny number of A list authors.

The publishers will tolerate libraries only as long as they can control everything about how books can be loaned. If public libraries were being invented today, the cartel would make their core functions illegal.

Max Delbrรผck, born #OTD in 1906, was a major force in the origins of molecular biology. Having trained in quantum physics, he saw phage as the โ€œatomโ€ of biology.
Although he had died years before, his ethos of intellectual rigor was still palpable a Caltech when I was there and his former office was a hangout as the Delbrรผck lounge.

EU privacy regulations hindering AI innovation? ๐Ÿค–

๐Ÿค” Meta and Spotify are criticizing EU privacy regulations for hindering open source AI through lack of clarity, holding back the development of powerful AI models. The two companies are advocating for a simplified regulatory structure to allow for open-source AI development.

Are these two pushing for simplified legislation, or are these legitimate concerns for the future of open source AI in Europe?

techcrunch.com/2024/08/23/metaโ€ฆ

in reply to Nextcloud ๐Ÿ“ฑโ˜๏ธ๐Ÿ’ป

if the AI being developed is incompatible with privacy laws, it's not worth developing.

Informed consent should be required for any data used in the training of AI models, but especially for personal data it is indispensable.
