The New Religion of AI Accelerationism

Earlier this month, researchers at the University of California San Diego published a study offering “the first empirical evidence that a modern artificial intelligence system can pass the Turing test.” Famously named for Alan Turing, the English mathematician and World War II codebreaker, the test is designed to determine whether a computer can exhibit human intelligence such as to make it indistinguishable from a human. What is interesting, perhaps, is how few waves this apparent breakthrough has made within the broader public discourse.

Hallo @EUCommission ! 🙂

Bei @ZDF #heute erfahre ich das #temu sich an EU Regeln halten soll und sonst hohe einmalige und dann auch periodisch weiter Strafzahlungen leisten muss, wenn das Unternehmen nicht wirksam nachbessert.
Finde ich gut.

Google bevorzugt in seiner Suche eigene Dienste – seit Jahren bekannt, jetzt droht die Rechnung. Die EU-Kommission plant eine Rekordstrafe nach dem Digital Markets Act, noch vor der Sommerpause.

Digital Markets Act: Google droht Rekordstrafe in der EU

Brüssel will offenbar noch vor der Sommerpause eine Strafe in dreistelliger Millionenhöhe gegen Google verhängen. Kommissionspräsidentin Ursula von der Leyen würde damit den Druck im Streit um die Marktmacht der Suchmaschine erhöhen – und einen neuen Konflikt mit den USA provozieren.

US Top News and Analysis | EU plans to fine Google high triple-digit million euro sum, Handelsblatt reports

AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.

The European Union is preparing to impose a high‑triple‑digit‑million‑euro fine on Alphabet’s Google as part of an antitrust investigation under the Digital Markets Act, a penalty that would be the largest ever for a DMA breach. Launched in March 2025, the probe centres on allegations that Google gives preferential treatment to its own services in search results, prompting the Commission to seek compliance rather than merely punish. Commission spokesperson Thomas Regnier warned that, despite ongoing negotiations, the EU will move quickly to the next steps if needed. Google has objected, arguing that the required changes “represent the biggest downgrade in the product’s history,” creating a second‑rate experience for European users, and it has asked for more time after an earlier proposal fell short. The decision is expected to be announced before the summer break.
