This could be Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, they have exactly the same perspective and hope

So thrilled!

Still too soon to say how it plays out, but at this moment there's a case to be made that Big Tech and GOP leaders overplayed their hand on the AI moratorium. The boldness of the 10-year ban mobilized a big and angry coalition against it, where a more modest proposal might just have slipped through.

Back from Tadoussac with this wonderful lady for the English translation of Seeker at the Glassco Residency. Thanks to PWM. The results will be shown at @centaurtheatre.bsky.social in coproduction with Talisman Theatre next spring!

L’actuel directeur artistique du Théâtre Denise-Pelletier est décédé vendredi à l’âge de 69 ans

So excited to be part of Centaur's new season with my play Seeker!

“Without widespread theft, my industry can’t survive” is an argument against your industry surviving, and is not an argument for allowing widespread theft

How cool is this. Voyager 1 is coasting in interstellar space, more than 48 years & 25 billion miles from Earth. Its back-up manoeuvring thrusters failed more than 2 decades ago. But @NASAJPL have GOT THEM WORKING AGAIN!!!! www.jpl.nasa.gov/news/nasas-v...

NOW: A group of faith leaders have linked arms & are blocking the entrance to the ICE detention facility at Delaney Hall, NJ. “We want to know who is in the building behind us. Americans believe in due process. This is not the country anyone asked for.” 👏 (🎥 Alexis McAdams, FOX)

Italian essayist Andrea Colamedici tells WIRED "Hypnocracy: Trump, Musk, and the New Architecture of Reality" was a “philosophical experiment and a performance.” The book’s Chinese author does not exist. www.wired.com/story/an-acc...

#HandsOff protests are happening in every single US state, BUT probably won’t get much mainstream media coverage. And footage will get surpressed on other platforms. So share what you can here 👍 #Boston #FiftyFiftyOne

I am one of the authors whom Meta stole (sorry, ‘scraped’) from, by using their books to train Libgen. So I’m biased. But this from @mscaitlinmoran.bsky.social is👌

A.must read

It is stunning to see how Meta illegally downloaded billions of pages of copyrighted books and articles from Russian pirate sites when training Llama 3. And not only that, but Meta also directly redistributed that copyrighted data to others:

In the 1930s a group sprang up in North America that wanted to merge the US with Canada. Elon Musk’s grandfather was a significant figure.

www.theatlantic.com/technology/a... L'entreprise Meta a entraîné son IA avec des livres piratés du Québec,( et d'autres pays) notamment du théâtre d'ici, sans bien sûr l'accord des intéressé.e.s. C'est révoltant! @posthumains.bsky.social @aqad-soqad.bsky.social @sacdparis.bsky.social

À voir!

J'ai toujours été fasciné par ces mouvements de mémoire qui veulent modifier l'histoire partagée. Dans cet article, on décrit comment le gouvernement américain veut effacer les traces des communautés minoritaires qui ont défendu leur pays. Quelle honte.

This👇 Calling these attacks “budget cuts” is like cutting off your leg and saying you’re trying to lose weight.

Some DOGE staffers are getting paid six-figure salaries from the very agencies they're slashing and burning killer scoop from @knibbs.bsky.social !!!! www.wired.com/story/doge-g...

canada pm justin trudeau: “what [trump] wants is to see a total collapse of the canadian economy, because that will make it easier to annex us.” astounding words from america’s (former) closest friend

Trump has reoriented the U.S.’s geopolitical strategy, turned on our major trading partners, and allowed the world’s richest man to cut hundreds of thousands of federal workers and billions of dollars in government services. Why aren’t we in the streets?

Ça ne lui tente pas d'aller sur la lune tout de suite lui aussi?

Every major UK newspaper - left, right, broadsheet, tabloid - is running a front page campaign against copyright carveouts for AI training. I can't remember the last time any political cause had such broad support, let alone one so anti-big tech and so economically consequential.

Malgré le foisonnement et peut-être à cause de celui-ci, notre époque en sera une des moins bien archivées. Mais des institutions s'activent pour conserver la mémoire et contre la censure : stephenslighthouse.com/2025/02/10/w...

In online chat groups linked to Palantir alumni and SpaceX interns, as well as in a Discord associated with a military artificial intelligence program, the engineers said they were looking for people willing to spend six months in DC, working to cut federal spending by a third. wrd.cm/3EwbLLx
