Bonne question 😅

Nicolas Gonthier @nicaogr.bsky.social · 18d

Do you plan to submit it somewhere else ?

Nicolas Gonthier @nicaogr.bsky.social · 20d

Very sorry for you. 😵

On ne peut malheureusement rien contre l'entropie

Oui je pense qu'il n'y a pas tant que poste de chercheurs dans le privé beaucoup plus d'ingénieur+ qui peuvent mener des projets prospectifs.

💶 Shape the future look of the euro!

The European Central Bank has launched a design contest for new euro banknotes with two themes:

🖼️ European Culture
🐦 R️ivers & Birds

Open to designers across the EU, submit your ideas by 18 August 12:00 CET

→ europa.eu/!cWfmdT

A graphic showing a 20-euro banknote with the design area pixelated. Above the note, bold text reads: “What will the future euro look like?” A curved arrow points to the blurred area. Below the banknote, the message says: “Submit your design.” The European Union flag appears in the bottom right corner. The image is shown in a design software interface.

AI isn’t just impacting how we write — it’s changing how we speak and interact with others. And there’s only more to come.

We can organize a virtual coffee in the next week if you want to discuss all those things☕

This is my PhD thesis

I did not ask for this

I did not consent to this

I did not approve of this

I was not compensated for this

I would not have advised this

I do not like this

And worst of all, the number of people who've read my thesis has still not increased.

Quand on alertait sur le fait que Academia était un acteur privé, lucratif, parasite pour la recherche publique, qui commercialisait les données, on nous répondait souvent "oui, mais c'est carrément mieux que HAL par exemple, qui n'est pas intuitif".

Voilà le résultat...

Good luck for the people that are now working on art analysis and learning in low data regime.

Nicolas Gonthier @nicaogr.bsky.social · May 20

Today, I discovered that my first research paper just hit 100 citations. I am happy to see that this method and the provided dataset for art analysis have been reused or inspired other works.
