@Baku88475562 Funny thing: the most beautiful version of classic Europe lives in Japanese anime. Meanwhile the real West is busy 'updating' it into something... less magical.

The U.S. Department of War has announced that it has entered into agreements with seven commercial artificial intelligence companies—SpaceX, OpenAI, Google, NVIDIA, Reflection, Microsoft, and Amazon Web Services—to "deploy their advanced AI capabilities on the Department's classified networks for lawful operational use."

@ChibiReviews Seen mates laugh off art bans like 'it's just weird drawings'. But governments never stop there . Your comics, games, or memes could be next. Slippery slope is real.

UK-based VTuber and artist Mimi Yanagi was arrested on April 20 for her own drawings of anime-style characters. These drawings were 100% fictional, made up by her, with no real people involved. UK law still treats these kinds of drawings as illegal child pornography, police took all her computers and devices. She has now been released on bail, but she is not allowed to post any “adult” content. She must also use an account name approved by the police. The UK is lost, you can’t even draw now, they will put you in prison

@Pirat_Nation Short term: smart for China’s huge population &keeps social stability. Long term though, it might scare companies from adopting AI & slow their big push to become an AI superpower

A Chinese court has made a big decision about AI and jobs, companies cannot fire workers just to replace them with artificial intelligence and save money. This ruling comes from recent cases in Beijing where employees lost their jobs after their companies started using AI. The judges said these firings were wrong because using AI does not count as a major enough change under China’s labor laws. The law needs a real big reason in the business before a company can easily end a job contract. Because of this, the courts overturned the dismissals and the workers kept their jobs. The ruling reminds companies that they must treat employees fairly and responsibly and helps protect people’s jobs

Left behind in Kabul. Alone. He waited 47 days. K-9 Chaos was not a dog who did his job. He was a dog who had DECIDED, completely, permanently, without reservation, that Lieutenant Marcus Webb was coming back for him. No matter how long it took. At Hamid Karzai International Airport, Kabul, on the morning of August 30th, 2021, a three-year-old Belgian Malinois sat in an empty aircraft hangar. The last American plane had left six hours ago. The evacuation was over. Chaos had been left behind. Not intentionally. The chaos of the withdrawal. The panic. The rush. Webb had been separated from Chaos during the final evacuation. Put on a different plane. Told Chaos would be on the next flight. There was no next flight. Chaos survived the first day alone. Waiting at the hangar where Webb had left him. Chaos survived the first week. Scavenging food from abandoned military supplies. Chaos survived 47 days in Taliban-controlled Kabul. Alone. Hiding. Waiting. Because Chaos survived on the belief that Webb wouldn't leave him forever. Back in the United States, Webb was losing his mind. Filed reports. Called congressmen. Contacted rescue organizations. Went on the news. "I left my dog in Afghanistan," he said on CNN, his voice breaking. "I left my brother. And I'm going to get him back." The military said it was impossible. Kabul had fallen. Taliban controlled the airport. No way to extract a dog. Webb didn't care about impossible. He contacted Pineapple Express, a veteran-run extraction operation. Gave them Chaos's last known location. Sent photos. Videos. Anything that could help. For 47 days, Webb didn't sleep. Didn't eat properly. Just waited for news. On October 16th, 2021, his phone rang. "We found him," the voice said. "We found Chaos." A rescue team had infiltrated Kabul. Used Webb's intel. Found Chaos still at the hangar. Still waiting. Forty-seven days later. Chaos was emaciated. Dehydrated. Traumatized. But alive. The extraction took three days. Smuggling Chaos out of Taliban-controlled territory. Through checkpoints. Through danger. But they got him out. On October 19th, 2021, Chaos landed at Dulles International Airport. Webb was waiting on the tarmac. When they opened the crate, Chaos didn't move. Stared at Webb like he was seeing a ghost. "It's me, brother," Webb said, kneeling down. "I came back. I promised I'd come back." Chaos stepped out slowly. Walked to Webb. Collapsed into his arms. The reunion video went viral. Seventeen million views in three days. But what people didn't see was what happened after. For six months, Chaos wouldn't sleep unless Webb was in the room. Wouldn't eat unless Webb fed him. Wouldn't go outside unless Webb went first. "He's terrified I'll leave him again," Webb said in an interview. "And I don't blame him. I left him once. In the worst place. At the worst time. He waited 47 days for me. And I'll spend the rest of my life making sure he knows I'm never leaving again." Three years later, Chaos still sleeps with his head on Webb's chest. Still follows him everywhere. Still making sure Webb doesn't disappear. K-9 Chaos. Survived 47 days alone in Kabul. Extracted by heroes. Reunited with his handler.

Parks and Rex! 🏕️ The King has spent time at Shenandoah National Park in Virginia’s Blue Ridge Mountains and Appalachian Highlands.   ⛰️ The Blue Ridge Mountains are among the oldest in the worldand the Appalachian Highlands were, remarkably, once connected to the Scottish Highlands as part of a single mountain chain.   Conservation efforts at Shenandoah include those aimed at preserving the iconic bald eagle, which was at risk of extinction in the mid-1900s. 🦅

An Australian startup called “Cortical Labs” is making computers that mix lab-grown human brain cells with silicon chips. Each unit holds about 200,000 brain cells grown from stem cells and the company has opened a test data center in Melbourne with 120 units and plans a larger one in Singapore. These living brain cells use far less power than regular AI servers, the cells also stay alive with special nutrients and electrical connections.

@fandompulse Western creators usually defend their work to death when fans criticize it. Meanwhile Japanese mangaka like Isayama be like "yeah I messed up parts of the ending, I was young & naive." Simple self reflection like that hits different. Wish we saw more of it

Attack on Titan creator Hajime Isayama says he's unsatisfied with the ending of the show: “Eren became a protagonist who committed mass slaughter on a scale rarely seen in other works of fiction. As for why I conceived such a story from the beginning, part of it was my desire to create a narrative with a major twist — where the victim becomes the perpetrator,” it reads." “But a large factor was also my own immaturity and foolishness at the time, when I was in my early twenties. That aspect became the core of Eren’s character, leading to the point where he confesses not as someone forced into wrongdoing by circumstances, but as someone who harbored a desire to do harm.” Why do western creators avoid criticism but the Japanese reflect and try to get better?

@TTP_TJT @RealCyberkitten @Dexerto Everyone debating if Eren’s arc broke the story. Meanwhile Isayama came out and said there’s “a sense of insincerity in the story’s conclusion.” AoT stays solid for me tho. One imperfect ending doesn’t erase how good the whole thing is.

A Spanish judge has ordered Cloudflare to block access from its CDN network to several websites that offer pirated football streams. It is the same court handling a complaint filed by LaLiga and Telefónica against Cloudflare and its CEO, Matthew Prince. The two companies accuse Prince of crimes against: -intellectual property -obstruction of justice -threats -coercion Cloudflare CEO always publicly criticized IP blocking measures in Spain and warned that such blocks could risk lives if they ever hit critical services. Prince was due to appear in court on April 7 but did not travel to Spain. The judge has now sent a formal request to U.S. authorities about the case but no one knows if Cloudflare will comply. The company uses a security feature called Encrypted Client Hello (ECH), and hides domain names during connections, making it impossible for Spanish internet providers to block just the illegal sites without also affecting thousands of legitimate websites that share the same infrastructure. Only Cloudflare can carry out a clean block at the domain level.

The California Coastal Commission has issued a formal apology to @elonmusk and SpaceX, adding that it will not consider political views or speech in future regulatory decisions. • The Commission admits some officials made politically biased and improper statements about SpaceX and Elon Musk • It formally apologizes for those remarks • Agrees it will not consider political views or speech in future regulatory decisions • The Commission will NOT require coastal permits for most launch operations at Vandenberg Full statement: "The Commission agrees that it may not consider irrelevant factors in performing its function and specifically agrees that it will not take into account the perceived political beliefs, political speech, or labor practices of SpaceX or its officers in considering any regulatory action concerning SpaceX. The Commission acknowledges that Commissioners made statements, including during their October 10, 2024, hearing on the Base’s Falcon 9 launch program, that showed political bias against SpaceX and its CEO and were improper. The Commission apologizes for those statements, as set forth in the signed letter attached as Exhibit C." This filing means that SpaceX and the California Coastal Commission have reached a settlement in their federal lawsuit, and it provides long-term regulatory clarity for SpaceX for future Falcon 9 launches.

Elon Musk’s federal lawsuit against Sam Altman and OpenAI is now underway in Oakland, California. The case centers on Musk’s claims that OpenAI violated its 2015 founding agreement by abandoning its nonprofit mission to develop safe, beneficial artificial intelligence for humanity and instead becoming a for-profit company now valued at more than $800 billion. Musk is seeking to remove Altman as CEO and recover substantial damages. >Musk’s legal team portrayed him as driven by humanitarian concerns about the existential dangers of artificial intelligence >One prospective juror described Musk as “a greedy, racist, homophobic piece of garbage” >The judge declined to dismiss several jurors who expressed strong negative views of Musk “The reality is that people don’t like him… Many people don’t like him, but that doesn’t mean that Americans nevertheless can’t have integrity for the judicial process,” the judge said.

Google employees are asking CEO Sundar Pichai to refuse secret military AI projects with the Pentagon. Reports say Google is in talks with the US Department of Defense to use its Gemini AI for classified government work. More than 600 employees including researchers from DeepMind and several senior leaders have signed a letter against the idea. They believe AI should help humanity, not be used for harmful things like lethal weapons or mass surveillance.
