The lie made into the rule of the world.
Explaining something no one asked to be explained without providing an opinion on the subject itself reads like tacit approval.
Do some people’s brains really work like that? I prefer it when people simply describe a problem, instead of making it all tribal and mixing reality with opinion!
The quality of discourse on lemmy is fucking dire.
Amen. A large fraction of the people on lemmy lack empathy and the ability to consider other viewpoints in general. Very anti-social, close minded crowd.
DeepSeek is it’s own model, designed and trained from ground up. It’s a novel architecture even. Impressive work.
It’s not a ‘stolen from the US’ model.
There does appear to be something special going on in the EU in that we can’t seem to participate on a technological level since the 80s. Making the block industrially irrelevant, which has had grave geopolitical consequences already.
GDPR is a barrier for EU companies only
It’s the tradeoff that’s happening. Maybe you’ve alternative solutions?
Anything you don’t like can be called that.
I think the point is that the EU isn’t participating in the software industry, including AI, at all.
I think Ray Dalio’s take on it is correct. It’s a consequence of currency devaluation, as people in general vote against the decrease in spending necessary to deflate the asset bubble. (1)
Still hard to believe this all happened less than 100 years ago.
Looking at the world today, I don’t find it that hard to believe. Antisemitism being more casual and popular than ever in my lifetime.
Even when it’s reverse? grants being conditional on DEI action has been a long time thing already
Pain and identity
Boiling the frog 👍
I have: here’s the relevant paragraph from the directive:
Amendment 186 Proposal for a directive Article 3 – paragraph 2 a (new) 2a. Disseminating pornographic content online without putting in place robust and effective age verification tools to effectively prevent children from accessing pornographic content online shall be punishable by a maximum term of imprisonment of at least 1 year.
Pinky promise is explicitely not allowed.
And you’re doing the exact thing: blaming the specific implementation 🙂 It’s so sad that that still tricks people. Is this your first time learning how a EU directive works?
No, it’s saying that exact thing: online users of porn must be deanonymised on penalty of prison. To stop child abuse because that’s related somehow?
It’s just that the countries themselves must choose the particulates: who will do the deanonymisation, in what way, what will enforcement look like, etc.
That’s what they mean with “the final shape of the law hasn’t been determined yet”.
Every EU directive works that way: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_(European_Union)
A directive is a legal act of the European Union[1] that requires member states to achieve particular goals without dictating how the member states achieve those goals
In this case: the de-anonymisation must happen. Up to the respective countries to do the dirty work.
When people, rightfully, get angry the local politician will say “we had to because EU”. And the EU will say “well we didn’t say it had to be in that way, it’s your local politician that did that.”
That’s simply how any EU directive works: EU decides what must happen, and it’s up to the individual countries to put it into their respective laws.
That way people get angry at their federal government instead. Who can point their finger higher up. Who can then point to the countries specific implementation in their turn. It’s a neat trick. Nobody’s responsible for anything.
the law works against its intentions
When has that ever stopped a puritan?
That’s a false dichotomy. Freedom of speech should not solely be for those you a priori agree with. That’s how autocrats motivate their supression: it’s always for the greater good, of which they’re the arbiter.
I once ate a hamburger from burger king made by employee that said the n-word when he was 17! I’m a literal nazi!
It’s not a death penalty if you don’t have a trial - Russia
Good luck to them!
