French space chief calls for end to European agency’s investment model
EU support at risk if group keeps key ‘georeturn’ principle in awarding contracts, says Philippe Baptiste
🇪🇺 EU Approves Historic AI Act: Pioneering Comprehensive AI Regulation | vcsi.org
"One of the key aspects of the AI Act is the enforcement mechanism, which includes substantial penalties for non-compliance. The EU Commission is vested with the authority to impose fines of up to €35 million ($38 million) or 7% of a company’s annual global revenue, whichever is higher"
Perhaps someone can help with this problem... and help get more aid to Ukraine.
VIDEO: "Short on air defenses and waiting for more international military support, Ukraine is turning to improvised weapons to hold Russian soldiers back on the front line. DW's Nick Connolly met soldiers who are using agricultural drones to make up for missing firepower."
»Lobbyismus für fragwürdige KI - Ein "Lügendetektor" an der EU-Außengrenze«
Dies sie pure Menschenverachtung nennt sich iBorderCtrl und wurde schon 2018 an einer Konferenz vorgestellt. Es geht bei der KI vor allem um sich von jeglicher Verantwortung zu entziehen und sich trotzdem arrogant gegenüber Menschen sich zu benehmen.
Sally-Ann Hart, MP for #Hastings and Rye, wants travel restrictions for EU students changed after a collapse in school groups who stayed in the town while on English-language courses.
#Germany has delivered a new batch of military assistance to #Ukraine, which includes artillery shells, #Leopard 1 AP tanks, machine guns, drones, rifles and ammunition.
#EU#TechRegulation#TechPolicy: "Is the premise here, that without such shackles, Europe would be free to build competitors equal to the US tech giants? If that’s the presumption, that’s not true. They know this is not true. Anyone who understands the history, the business models, the deep entrenchment of these companies also knows that’s not true.
There may be frustration with regulation ‘slowing down your series B’. But I think we need to look at a definition of ‘progress’ that relies on casting off all guardrails that would govern the use and abuse of technologies that are currently being tasked with making incredibly sensitive determinations; currently being linked with mass surveillance infrastructures that are accelerating new forms of social control; that are being used to degrade and diminish labor. Is that what we want? Is that progress? Because if we don’t define our terms, I think we can get caught in these fairy tales.
Sure, some guys are going to be solidly middle-class after they cash out, and that is good for them. But let’s not conflate that with progress toward a livable future. Progress toward a socially beneficial governance structure, progress toward technology that actually serves human needs, that is actually accountable to citizens."
Thanks to #DW for producing this comprehensive debunking of the "#hydrogen future".
It's ridiculous how many companies are peddling this stupidity (e.g. for home boilers because "we already have gas pipes") and #EU governments are buying into it.
Der Aufstieg der Le-Pen-Partei hat zwei Ursachen: die Eroberung der kulturellen Macht – und die Unterstützung durch einen Medienunternehmer.http://www.taz.de/!6009231/
@Trojaner Es wäre sinnvoll, dass sich z.B. #Gewerkschaften der ganzen #EU zusammentäten und zu Aktionen gegen #Rechts überall aufriefen. Denn mit den Gewerkschaften ist es ähnlich wie mit den #ÖRR: Mit den Braunen sind ihre Tage sozusagen gezählt.
Die Ultrarechten tun sich international zusammen (Das Treffen LePen/Meloni/Orban/Milei wird nicht das einzige gewesen sein). Demokrat*innen der EU haben es nicht geschafft, auch nur eine einzige Aktion zustande zu bringen. Nicht eine!
