Les grands modèles de langage à la recherche d’une sanction démocratique

“Le véritable enjeu n’est pas simplement de refléter les souhaits actuels des citoyens, endogènes au système dans lequel ils sont exprimés, mais de permettre à la société tout entière de décider de façon réfléchie ce qu’elle veut devenir à l’ère algorithmique, en s’inscrivant dans un champ de possibles laissé ouvert et incluant des options de sortie – par exemple, le refus de développer ou de déployer plus avant certains genres de modèles ou d’applications. Les mini-publics délibératifs, très en faveur ces derniers temps, pourraient certainement jouer un rôle, à condition toutefois de se faire la caisse de résonance et de jouer un rôle d’éclaireurs d’un débat plus large. Seule l’implication informée du public dans son ensemble dans la discussion des algorithmes et de leurs implications peut soutenir l’effort de régulation de la part des pouvoirs publics nécessaire à réaliser un alignement compatible avec l’autodétermination démocratique.”

Meta AI adviser spreads disinformation about shootings, vaccines and trans people

“Robby Starbuck, 36, of Nashville, was appointed in August as an adviser by Meta – owner of Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, and other tech platforms – in an August lawsuit settlement. […]
Since his appointment, Starbuck has baselessly claimed that individual shooters in the US were motivated by leftist ideology, described faith-based protest groups as communists, and without evidence tied Democratic lawmakers to murders.
During Dhillon’s leadership, the CAL pursued a myriad of culture-war lawsuits on behalf of rightwing influencers, “de-transitioners” and parents of transgender children, and churches that had been subject to California’s pandemic restrictions. Beirich, the extremism expert, said: “This is just another example of Meta caving to Trump and his allies, and bogus charges of political bias, and makes a mockery of fair content moderation on Meta’s various platforms.” Elsewhere in his comments to the Guardian, Starbuck wrote: “You should be honest with Guardian readers about the fact that you’ve been accused of extremely close ties with antifa.””

Affaire Jean Pormanove : les violences en direct reprennent, la justice perquisitionne le « Lokal »

“Toute la bande s’amuse de cette transgression. « Mediapart, c’est pour vous », lance Gwen dans un live, après avoir coupé la caméra, supposément pour donner des gifles à Jonathan. « C’est une cascade », assure Yas, un des nouveaux visages de la chaîne. « BFM, contactez-moi, ils vont finir en taule ! », s’amuse aussi Marie, une streameuse de jeux vidéo qui apparaît depuis plusieurs semaines sur la chaîne et côtoyait régulièrement l’équipe du Lokal naguère.
Elle aussi semble subir un coup de Gwen hors caméra, qui fait voler ses lunettes. « Premier degré, elle a pris des grosses baffes », assure-t-il à ses fans en regardant la caméra. « BFM, contactez-moi s’il vous plaît ! », répète-t-elle.”

“Alongside our research, Google has invested in CFS, supporting their work on promising scientific and engineering breakthroughs, and moving their technology toward commercialization. Looking ahead, our vision extends beyond optimizing SPARC operations. We’re building the foundations for AI to become an intelligent, adaptive system at the very heart of future fusion power plants. This is just the beginning of our journey together, and we hope to share more details about our collaboration as we reach new milestones. By uniting the revolutionary potential of AI and fusion, we’re building a cleaner and more sustainable energy future.”

California becomes first state to regulate AI companion chatbots

https://no-flux.beaude.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/GettyImages-2240040875.jpg

“California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a landmark bill on Monday that regulates AI companion chatbots, making it the first state in the nation to require AI chatbot operators to implement safety protocols for AI companions. The law, SB 243, is designed to protect children and vulnerable users from some of the harms associated with AI companion chatbot use. It holds companies — from the big labs like Meta and OpenAI to more focused companion startups like Character AI and Replika — legally accountable if their chatbots fail to meet the law’s standards.”

« Don’t Look Up » : des satellites inondent le monde de données non chiffrées

“Dans la majorité des cas, la faille béante a été corrigée par le chiffrement des communications. Les chercheurs confirment par exemple que c’est bien le cas pour T-Mobile, WalMart et KPU. Dans l’étude scientifique, il est précisé que bien d’autres entités ont été contactés : AT&T, le gouvernement mexicain, Telmex, Grupo Santander, Panasonic Avionics, Intelsat, WiBo… La liste est longue et ne concerne que les 39 satellites qu’ils ont écoutés, pas ceux qui sont en dehors de leur partie du ciel.”

OpenAI blocks AI videos of Martin Luther King Jr.

“OpenAI has blocked users from making videos of Martin Luther King Jr. on its Sora app after the estate of the civil rights leader complained about the spread of « disrespectful depictions. »
Since the company launched Sora three weeks ago, hyper-realistic deepfake videos of King saying crude, offensive or racist things have rocketed across social media, including fake videos of King stealing from a grocery store, speeding away from police and perpetuating racial stereotypes.
Late on Thursday, OpenAI and King’s estate released a joint statement saying AI videos portraying King are being blocked as the company « strengthens guardrails for historical figures. »
OpenAI said it believes there are « strong free speech interests » in allowing users to make AI deepfakes of historical figures, but that estates should have ultimate control over how those likenesses are used.”

AI data centers won’t have to disclose water use in California

https://no-flux.beaude.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/urlhttps3A2F2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com2F352F852F0bb721454beb8d78d4067029218e2F1469296-me-data-centers-needed-for-ai-3.webp

“ Gov. Gavin Newsom vetoed a bill that would have tracked data centers’ growing water footprint in California. He says California is “well positioned” to support the data center boom, and he is reluctant to “impose rigid reporting requirements.” The governor signed other bills on water supply goals, groundwater dispute resolution, and water theft from fire hydrants.”

What billionaire Peter Thiel said in his private ‘Antichrist lectures’

“In the four, roughly two-hour lectures, which began last month and culminated Monday at the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco, Thiel laid out his religious views to a sold-out audience told to keep the contents “off-the-record,” according to an event listing. He argued that those who propose limits on technology development not only hinder business but also threaten to usher in the destruction of the United States and an era of global totalitarian rule, according to the recordings. “In the 17th, 18th century, the Antichrist would have been a Dr. Strangelove, a scientist who did all this sort of evil crazy science,” Thiel said in his Sept. 15 opening talk, according to the recordings. “In the 21st century, the Antichrist is a Luddite who wants to stop all science. It’s someone like Greta or Eliezer,” he said, referring to Thunberg and Eliezer Yudkowsky, a prominent critic of the tech industry’s approach to AI. Thunberg has criticized global capitalism as a driver of environmental degradation while Yudkowsky advocates for limiting AI research to prevent the technology from surpassing human intelligence.”
