🌤️ Vous n'entendrez bientôt plus sur France Info/Inter Élodie Callac et Sébastien Léas, ingénieurs à Météo France, pour cause de contraintes budgétaires. Le SNJ dénonce "un contresens historique, particulièrement au moment où notre climat se dérègle".

I think a danger with social media is to thoroughly mix your sense of agency & consequential powerlessness with the catastrophic goings on in the world. It strikes me that the inverse of this phenomenon is to shift your focus to the incremental and enormously meaningful good you can do where you are

"I DON'T NEED YOU TO FUCKING REWRITE WHAT I'VE JUST WRITTEN!"

Effroyable tribune de parlementaires dans @lemonde.fr pour défendre Chat Control. Ces gens veulent lire vos messages avant chiffrement pour détecter la potentielle présence de contenus pédo. Dans un roman de science-fiction, on y croirait pas tellement c'est grossier. www.lemonde.fr/idees/articl...

Aux US, pendant la guerre, l’administration Roosevelt taxait les revenus au-delà de 200k$ (3M$ aujourd’hui) à 94%. Ça laisse rêveur.

Countries racing to show they too can be leaders on AI are committing their societies to further social disruption on the altar of attracting short-term investment. It’s a recipe for disaster, and leaders need to wake up before it’s too late. AI needs to be reined in, not allowed to proliferate.

Hi. I wrote an essay about AI slop: How it feels like an invasive species for the internet. How its boosters describe building a future that’s devoid of craft. How frictionlessness can be nihilistic & how this stuff seems to leach part of our shared humanity out of the world. I hope you'll read it.

The most powerful people in history have retreated to an elaborate cybernetic fantasy-world that they built for themselves so they can escape their fear of an imagined end of the world, and they demand you join them there because that is the only way they can maintain the illusion of control.

The only way we are going to beat fascism is enough people break out of the hologrammatic silicon prison that has been constructed around them out of algorithms and hypermedia

he still lives on in the world we left behind

However, the obvious glitches reveal how genAI works. Rather than simulating a world, it visualizes concepts based on patterns found in existing content: a reporter is a person with a mic & a detainee is a person with their hands cuffed behind their back. Combine the two, and you get three arms 3/

Over the past decades, the rise of smartphones & social media has conditioned us to expect images of any event to be available in real time. If something was happening, you could be sure to see it online. Now, AI slop exploits this expectation by feeding us images that feel more real than reality 2/

This is both fascinating & frightening. There is a demand for images that show and confirm what people already know and believe to be true, and AI slop meets that demand—with visual content that emblematically visualizes what the headlines report. One could call it synthetic hypervisualization 1/

En cas d'échec des ultimes négociations de Lecornu, Macron préférera toujours la dissolution à la démission. Les préfets ont déjà reçu la consigne officieuse de se tenir prêts pour de nouvelles législatives les 16 et 23 novembre.

So-called #genAI means the abolition of the future through the proliferation of endless streams of stochastically rendered generic pasts. Having turned large parts of the cultural archive into training data, it now traps us in a foreverized pastness, a 24/7 nostalgia for a past that never existed

📣 Germany's close to reversing its opposition to mass surveillance & private message scanning, & backing the Chat Control bill. This could end private comms-& Signal-in the EU. Time's short and they're counting on obscurity: please let German politicians know how horrifying their reversal would be.

En France, 3 entités sont prêtes à mettre fin à notre secret des correspondances : la police, la justice (piétiner les droits fondamentaux leur simplifie objectivement le travail), et la culture (les ayants-droit n'attendent que ce pied dans la porte pour l'étendre au piratage).

La décrépitude politique fr est certes passionnante à commenter, mais n'oublions pas #chatcontrol qui va être proposé au parlement UE si la réunion du 14/10 (mardi prochain) le décide, or France et Allemagne sont maintenant pour :( lel.media/chatcontrol-...

En Irlande un candidat éjecté de la campagne présidentielle parce que dans les années 90 il a refusé de rembourser 3000€ de trop perçu a un locataire. Vous imaginez ça ici 😂

Ba voilà on l'a notre pays "géré comme une entreprise"

Le schéma est identique partout, même dans une société aussi différente de la notre que la société japonaise. Le capitalisme de rente se débarrasse de la démocratie qui l'encombre en profitant de la rancœur produite par le fondamentalisme de marché qu'il a soutenu. www.bbc.com/news/article...

Au moins 9 hommes condamnés ou en attente d’un procès dans des affaires de terrorisme d’extrême droite ont exercé des responsabilités au sein du RN ou l’ont représenté à des élections locales / nationales. C’est le seul parti politique dans ce cas. Enquête de @matthieusuc.bsky.social @mediapart.fr

OpenAI employees are very excited about how well their new AI tool can create fake videos of people doing crimes and have definitely thought through all the implications of this

Excited to introduce Vibes from Meta. Eat your slop, piggies!

get in loser, we're reinventing jibjab

every company on earth demanding its underpaid workers use the garbage generator machine for everything and now they're mad that all they're getting is garbage

To be clear: this entire “we’ve got to run more pro-lifers” insanity is because literally a week ago polling showed that Democrats would prefer politicians like AOC and Mamdani over Jefferies and Schumer by, let me emphasize this, a 20 point fucking margin. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Putain mais France Info… FRANCE INFO, le service public diffuse en direct l’hommage à un facho raciste antisémite homophobe anti-avortement et pro-armes ?? Mais vous avez craqué @franceinfo.fr ? Honte, colère, dégoût…

Les chaines infos sont un champ de ruine journalistique.

Vrai pour chez nous aussi…

The event is not the actual event more often than not; it's the collective reaction to the perceived shape, one which is again often shaped by those deliberately shaping it almost moreso than the actual observers.

On sait s'amuser quand même.

Parmi les journalistes, ceux qui se disent neutres sont souvent les meilleurs relais du pouvoir. L’objectivité est un mythe. Le pb n'est pas l’engagement mais l’hypocrisie de ceux qui prétendent ne pas en avoir. Mon parti pris et soutien à @thomas-legrand.bsky.social. www.politis.fr/articles/202...

Dans l'histoire de la Ve République, aucun ministre de la Culture n'avait à ce point attaqué la presse, menacé les journalistes, intimidé des rédactions, tenté de faire taire des révélations. La combattre c'est combattre pour la survie même de la presse. Soutien à @thomas-legrand.bsky.social.

Dans la série « l’IA va remplacer tous les métiers »… Pfff ça commence à devenir désespérant cette économie du moins-disant

The AI boom has created a new type of work: fixing botched AI. Designers are being hired to remake wonky AI art. Writers are asked to make ChatGPT’s writing sound more human. Even software developers are tasked with fixing buggy vibe coding. www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-ne...

This is incredible pickleball OSINT work from the NYT's @ethansinger.bsky.social. I love everything about it--the concept, the use of databases, aerial imagery, and ML to crack the case. This should win an OSINT blue ribbon. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

On one hand, reducing car use reduces urban pollution. But on the other, everyone likes it and cities become more livable

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars.

According to sources in the Danish police, American agents are trying to infiltrate Greenland to find people who would be in favour of an American invasion.
