Reminder: This is while the vast majority of the data centers they claim will drive the "AI revolution" haven't even been built yet.
It's entirely possible that the projected quantities of compute necessarry to do what they claim will require more energy than we have access to.
I wish I didn't have to point out that that would be pretty fucking stupid even if it actually did something valuable, which it doesn't.

It is even worse: in #EU, the parties siding with Putin, fuelled by his #propaganda want to establish #fascist regimes. In #Germany #afd in France #RN and #FN in Italy #fratelliditalia and #lega and in other countries parties are building a political consensus on #populism as #fascists did. The real question is “are we willing to tolerate the intolerance?” we shall control #socialmedia and fight Putin’s plans. Promote in EU the cultural level that historically is required for democracy to exist.

A bit of context, to understand the decline of #eu #softpower :
2024, #senegal
Import from UE €3,773 billions
Export to UE €0,713 billions
EU sent 337 millions in #financial support.
97,2% of the population is #muslim and #literacy (age 15+) ~50.4%
This can give ideas on how much soft power EU can exert and how culturally effective it can be.
Of course, if EU was providing #IT and #socialmedia and controlled key technologies in Senegal, soft power would be greater. Kind of as #US with EU.
France, Germany, and the Netherlands co-developed open-source public tools through shared codebases, hackathons, and EU-backed funding models. 🇪🇺
The collaboration prioritizes digital sovereignty, reusable infrastructure, and transparent governance while addressing fragmentation and funding risks. 🧩

What happens when three European public administrations shift from coordination to co-developing digital tools? Since 2023, the DINUM (French OSPO), its German counterpart, and the Netherlands have taken on this challenge.
#Reels served in #infinite #scrolling powered by #algorithms are the #opium of the century.
A tax should be imposed, as with #alcohol and legalized #drugs .
Additionally, #social service providers using #algorithms should be required to provide users with #data and access to the #algorithm (even without disclosing weights\source code) so that users can effectively test for #bias.
