Under #oath: Anton Carniaux, Director of Public and Legal Affairs, #Microsoft France:

»Mr. Dany Wattebled, rapporteur. - Mr. #Carniaux, as Director of Public and Legal Affairs, you represent Microsoft France to public decision-makers. Can you guarantee before our committee, under oath, that the #data of French #citizens entrusted to Microsoft via Ugap will never be transmitted, following an injunction from the #American #government, without the explicit agreement of the French authorities?

Mr. Anton Carniaux. - No, I can't guarantee that, but then again, it's never happened before.«

🇺🇸 🖥️ **Americans are increasingly likely to say AI will negatively affect society**

"_The share of Americans who believe that the effects of artificial intelligence on society will be negative has steadily increased, from 34% in December 2024 to 40% in March 2025 to 41% in April and to 47% in June._"

🗨️ The only critique I have for Shane is the usage of AI #images. This is fictional-non-fictional mashup, not #journalism - I don't support sample/symbolic/archive pictures as insert on publications either, if there is no photo available on an event, skip it and publish text only! It's relevant to endeavour to more accuracy online, not less. #AI is NOT journalism, sorry, it's the random interpolation of meta #data and reality.

Good #news though, #australia! 👇🏽

B.C. college warns students of data breach. Cybersecurity experts warn of wider problems
The College of New Caledonia in Prince George is warning students of a data breach, but cybersecurity experts say colleges and educational institutions are particularly vulnerable to hackers and need to take better measures to protect student data.

⚠️ 🚨 The tap trap: Android security vulnerability discovered ⚠️ 🚨

"On Android phones, an invisible app can be active in the foreground—and that is a potential security problem. Users then operate an app that they cannot see and can be tricked into performing unwanted actions, such as granting certain rights to a malicious app or even deleting data."

Continued thread

I am done with this #Tuya shit. After some days operation, the control is lost and probably the device wants #Internet access agian.

After #Matter now #Tuya is sent to #trash. Blocking the MAC on the WLAN, deleting #localtuya from #HomeAssistant .

Pissed off hard by all of this #dataThieves meanwhile.

Hopefully more people will stop buying products from #suppliers thinking they have the right to #steal #data, just becaus I buy a product. #CEO only learns with #sales #breakdown .

💻 caption-upsampling: 153⭐

I love seeing interesting AI concepts in the gen AI mess! 🤖✨

Check out "caption-upsampling" by @sayakpaul.

This repository showcases the concept of "caption upsampling" from DALL-E 3 using Zephyr-7B, along with results gathered using SDXL. It's a fascinating project for anyone interested in advanced AI and image generation! 📈🎨

#Data : La #France ne contrôle plus ses données : Microsoft les remettra aux États-Unis “si nous y sommes contraints”

Lors d’une audition publique au Sénat, #Microsoft France a confirmé qu’elle ne pouvait empêcher la justice américaine d’accéder aux données hébergées en France. Un aveu glaçant, qui révèle l’ampleur du décalage entre les promesses de souveraineté numérique et la réalité contractuelle de l’État français.lesnumeriques.com/societe-nume

Yesterday, the participant walked 400 metres and then sat down. After a few moments, they placed their right arm in a hardware device and pressed start. The device displayed information via an electronic screen and a paper printout.

Subsequently, a photo was taken with the aid of another device running different software. The image was slightly cropped, the contrast and brightness were manually adjusted, and the #metadata was removed. Finally, the image was uploaded #online and permissions were set accordingly.

I discussed all necessary #data, #protection, and #privacy issues with legal counsel. I received advice on personal information as well as sensitive personal information (e.g. financial, sexual, and political information). The issue of data aggregation was also briefly covered. I've not yet obtained a second opinion.

I've also not yet reviewed the current literature on #public #health, but noted in the observation log that the subject has been a vegetarian for most of their life.

Early next week, I will discuss broader #ethics questions directly with my #research collaborator.

So, garmin has race predictions for 5,10, 21 and 42 but my next race is 30 so i created using riegel’s formula my own predictor using my best runs this year on all distances.

The estimation was 3:22 which seems reasonable.

I also plotted the fatigue curve and if i am reading that correctly I need to improve my endurance. Doing ok on shorter runs but not good at all on longer ones (dots way above fatigue curve)

Very interesting and probably spot on!
