Here's the German government's statement on not supporting Chat Control, calling it a "taboo for the rule of law."

Zitat

Anlasslose Chatkontrolle muss in einem Rechtsstaat tabu sein. Private Kommunikation darf nie unter Generalverdacht stehen.“

In addition, we had recently an alert in France about the presence of Cadmium (more in Southern American than Africa because of the soil) way above the daily limit (even with only one square of bio dark chocolate). 😢

Is dark chocolate good for you?
"Sadly for chocoholics, the health claims for dark chocolate come from wishful thinking and sly marketing, not the findings of science."
Sorry

Is dark chocolate actually healthy?

We assess whether that tempting idea is too good to be true

AI Ecosystem Capital Flows as presented by Morgan Stanley

"OpenAI’s contracts account for 2/3 of Oracle’s remaining performance obligations (RPO) and about 40% of CoreWeave’s RPO. In total, OpenAI-related contracts are estimated to represent over $330 billion out of the combined $880 billion RPO."

New "Expression of concern" for the IHU :

- Approval 09-022 used 258 times.
- Use of the funding reference as a retrospective approval.

It should be noted that AMU didn't cover the authors. I'm falling off my chair!

OCR was "solved" with CNNs, not GenAI.

So "being reported for watching Ronja…" is technically NOT possible.

On the other hand, if you upload clear images anywhere on large platforms, they are CSAM hashed (Google as an example).

I mentionned both in my first answer 🤔.

1) Communication Safety is ML, warns the user (minor) and offers "help" suggestions.

2) CSAM was a proposal on known CSA images.
After a threshold, the images would have been sent to be verified by a human (cool job!) before alerting the authorities.

No: CSAM detection is not Machine Learning but comparing image hashes to known CSA image hashes compiled by various orgs.

As an example, Apple’s details (Google is your friend for other implementations).

Scumbags can share their own photos all they want until they make their way to one database.

Apple’s controversial CSAM proposal was already 100% on-device a few years ago.

Apple Communication Safety (for kids) is on-device.

About Communication Safety on your child's Apple device - Apple Support

If your child receives or attempts to send photos or videos that might contain nudity, Communication Safety warns them, gives them options to stay safe, and provides helpful resources.

For someone who is perpetually bored, working in one of the most boring fields - AI. Yes, the field is exciting and dynamic, but the day-to-day tasks are mind-numbingly boring.

So... I use social media both to stay informed and pass the time.

Il faut noter l’ignominie raffinée de @jlefilliatre.bsky.social du @lemonde.fr qui demande à Marie Dosé de réagir pendant sa garde à vue à l’article qu’il publie à charge contre elle… ( C’est-à-dire à un moment où elle ne peut pas répondre.)
