Pourquoi essayer de convaincre les gens quand tu as un LBD et plein de munitions de dispo ?

The sad reality is that a lot of people evade parenting by spending way too much time at their work. To some extent using work as an excuse to spend less time educating and spending times with kids.

So you either get the social stigma of not willing to have kids, or you do get some kids and actually don't want to spend time with them ?

Obviously, some parents find the right balance between the two and actually care about the kids enough to keep work in check but I'm starting to think that's more an exception than the norm.

Sorry if this is rough to read or offensive. As I said, I work 39h a week and most of the higher ups at work do 41/42+ hours a week easy. It's obvious than they choose work before education. There is a point where it's just physically impossible to be there for your kids while spending that much time work. Don't even get me started on these higher ups spending so much time working even when they do get home.

I don't get it either. I work in IT in France and do 39 hours a week. It's fairly close to that google figure.

And we have one of the most protective unions and so on here in France.

This is absolutely not unusual in EU to see people working 40+ hours a week and I'm sure there is much worse.

I agree that we should all work less than 8 hours a day, no matter the field honestly, but that's just how it is right now.

Now the main difference is we probably have much more holidays than in the US but that's a different story.

Just glad this is not a count Dankula sequel :p

Intéressant !

Mais mauvaise traduction je trouve.

I will just say that the recent video from Veritasium about night vision goggles does indeed say that you see better the blue light in the dark rather than the green.

And that's why high end military grade night vision goggles are in the blue spectrum.

It doesn't matter. I don't really care about moderation being impossible to do. Google decided most moderation should be done automatically on YT and there are constantly false positives. They are not being held accountable both for false positives and false negatives. No human is involved.

And reading that type of comment I'm assuming we are heading the same way. Businesses not being accountable for something that is absolutely being generated by their code. If you choose to deploy a black box that generates random stuff you can't understand how it was generated it shouldn't make you not responsible for the damage done.

I don't think we should naively just accept apologies from AI owners and move on. They knew the risk of dangerous content being generated and decided it was acceptable.

Also considering the damage that Facebook has done in the past and their careless attitude toward privacy, I cannot understand why you would find it likely that they took the time to add some kind of safeguard for nationality and terrorism to be wrongfully associated.

Even then, the very concept of nationality is certainly not clear for an AI. For some Palestine is not a country. How would you think they would have coded a safeguard to prevent that kind of mistake anyway ?

There is a contradiction also in saying that you can't moderate every single AI output manually but that they manually added a moderation of sort to the AI specifically for Palestinians and terrorism. There is no way they got so specific. As you said it's not a practical approach.

The very important point for me to convey is that just because some black box generating text can randomly say racist stuff doesn't and shouldn't be more socially acceptable. That's it.

Then obviously I think these AI shouldn't have been released before their owners have a very good understanding on how they work and on how to prevent 99.9999999999% of the dangerous outputs. Right now my opinion is that Whatsapp deployed this knowing a lot of racist stuff would be generated and they just decided they will figure it out along the way with the help of the users.

It was either that or being late to the competition for the AI market.

If an innocent user can generate that easily some racist output I would argue they did not responsibly released this AI.

It's up to them to moderate the content generated by their app.

And yes it's almost impossible to have a completely safe AI so that will be an issue for all generative AIs like that. It's still their implementation and content generated by their code.

Also I highly doubt they had a specific code to prevent that kind of depiction of Palestinian kids.

Even if they did, someone will come up with an injection prompt that overrides the code in question and the AI will again display biased or racist stuff.

An AI generating racist stuff is absolutely not more acceptable because it got inspired by real racist people...

The pressure on that market also enables landlords to ask for pretty much any information on renters.

Oh you have good revenue but don't want to give your paycheck over the last two years ? Ok let me put that folder with your name on it and put it where it belongs at the bottom of the pile.

A lot of things you have to give are illegal to ask to renters.

On the other hand the law here in France seems really bad when it comes to squatters and it can be insanely difficult to get someone out when they don't pay the rent. Litteraly years in some cases and your bank will still ask for interest on the money you borrowed.

So landlords asks for the best and more solid candidates because they could quite literally lose their investment because someone took a place knowing very well they could just not pay and have no consequences.

A minority of people who can pay rent and choose not to are ruining rent opportunities for others with modest revenue but who actually are willing to pay their rent.

Just to be clear, I'm not saying oh the poor landlords or anything just trying to say how it works in Paris and in France for this market.

What a terrible strategy...

Hey you should consider not blocking ads and joining YouTube Premium! By the way we just increased the price of the service you currently virtually have for free.

Pas vraiment.

A vrai dire j'étais pas loin de me lancer pour entamer le dernier en parlant des jeux auxquels je joue actuellement et puis je sais pas j'ai été intimidé par le fait d'être le premier à commenter.

Je me dis que suggérer plus de thèmes même si ça ne me parle pas personnellement pourrait encourager de briser la glace un peu sur ce genre de topics.

Désolé si c'est vague et pas très constructif mais je continue de penser que ce genre de topics hebdomadaires peuvent facilement décoller et que c'est sûrement un peu comme moi juste un peu la peur de la page blanche quand on arrive dessus.

Why ?!
