"For too long, too many of us did not give enough weight to the warnings of AI safety activists…I was one of those many, and I was wrong." "The truth is," Representative Ro Khanna tweeted, "for too long, too many of us did not give enough weight to the warnings of AI safety activists…I was one of those many, and I was wrong." #AIveiligheid #technologieregels #Amerikaansepolitiek (translated)

Lawrence Lessig and Yoshua Bengio propose in this article how the U.S. Congress can reduce serious risks of artificial intelligence without losing technological leadership, by implementing four key changes that promote AI safety. #AIveiligheid #technologieregels #Amerikaansepolitiek (translated)

Ronny Naftaniel wrote that the American billionaire John Paulson donated $250 million to the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. According to Naftaniel, a significant part of the donation would be used for the opening of a new technical faculty. https://t.co/FagCBR0Hr2 #JohnPaulson #donatie #technologie (translated)

Emanuel Boeminghaus wrote that Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang criticized Germany's lag in future technologies. While Huang pointed to German talent and technical know-how, he saw the problem in Europe's tendency to overthink projects. Boeminghaus reacted sarcastically to the notion that such concerns were a fairytale. At the same time, Boeminghaus referred to a planned collaboration between Nvidia and the German government, according to Handelsblatt. This involves investments of several hundred million euros in industrial AI, robotics, autonomous vehicles, and open AI models. The partnership is scheduled to be presented on October 19 in Berlin; the Nvidia developer conference GTC is set for October 20 to 22. https://t.co/pQ0vPFd1rX #Deutschland #Technologie #KünstlicheIntelligenz (translated)

In Beijing, the International Forum Against Terrorism has begun, where China presented developed robots, such as humanoids and robotic dogs, with the aim of demonstrating how these technologies can help in the fight against terrorism and unexpected threats. #humanoidníroboty #terorismus #uměláinteligence (translated)

China is introducing new reporting obligations and export restrictions for 40 key technologies, including artificial intelligence and solar cells, to minimize security risks and control technology transfer abroad. #Exportkontrollen #Schlüsseltechnologien #KünstlicheIntelligenz (translated)

Critical infrastructure such as airports and chemical parks is increasingly being protected against the threat posed by drones, with a multi-layered system of detection and defense methods, as well as the use of AI-supported technologies in focus. #KritischeInfrastruktur #Drohnenabwehr #FlughafenSicherheit (translated)

Although the smartphone is often seen as a source of addiction and high screen time for young people, experts emphasize that this technology also brings positive aspects, such as developing a sense of community and facilitating self-development. #Jongeren #SocialeMedia #Gemeenschapsgevoel (translated)

Yi Zeng from Renmin University, the Dean of the Beijing Institute for AI Safety, emphasizes in the journal of the Central Party School that a global understanding of red lines is essential: if the world continues to sweep all risks under the rug with its technological optimism and postpones regulations in favor of competition, then a #KünstlicheIntelligenz #China #TechnologieRisiken (translated)

Wang Lihong, the deputy director of the office, points out that structural errors in AI systems are difficult to identify and eliminate, and therefore calls for a "strong restriction" on the use of AI in areas with little tolerance for error. #KünstlicheIntelligenz #China #TechnologieRisiken (translated)

Yanis Varoufakis, never short of an original statement, reports a hopeful mood even among the last remaining Marxists in China: capitalism will not survive AI, as the abundance of goods it creates will cause their exchange value to plummet — a prediction that, by the way, is very similar to the expectation recently expressed by Elon Musk to the "Economist"; perhaps the American billionaire will soon also be counted among the Chinese Marxists. #KünstlicheIntelligenz #China #TechnologieRisiken (translated)

Although the Chinese are generally more optimistic about artificial intelligence, there are still concerns and differing opinions about the risks of the technology, as demonstrated by calls for regulation from government bodies and scientists. #KünstlicheIntelligenz #China #TechnologieRisiken (translated)

The atomic clock using lutetium-176, developed at the Centre for Quantum Technologies at the National University of Singapore, has achieved a record precision in time measurement, but another clock using thorium-229 is approaching this extraordinary measure. #OrologioAtomico #TecnologiaQuantistica #ScienzaModerna (translated)

🚨Une revue cartographie 267 études présentées comme longitudinales sur le numérique et la santé des jeunes. Son message : ne pas réduire les usages au seul temps d’écran ; les pratiques, les contenus et les contextes comptent aussi. Les liens observés ne suffisent pas à établir une causalité. 📒 Usage quotidien des technologies numériques et santé des jeunes : revue de portée des études longitudinales ✍️ Preetika Banerjee (Department of Pharmacy, CHOICE Institute, School of Pharmacy, University of Washington, États-Unis) et Louise Holly (Digital Transformations for Health Lab, Université de Genève, Suisse).JMIR Public Health and Surveillance - avril 2026 Everyday Digital Technology Use and Youth Health: Scoping Review of Longitudinal Studies Capsules Audio de Pratiques en Santé 🎙️🎥 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul9HCp-R71s Analyse de Pratiques en Santé et lien vers la source ℹ️➕ https://www.pratiquesensante.com/blog/pratiques-15/usage-quotidien-des-technologies-numeriques-et-sante-des-jeunes-revue-de-portee-des-etudes-longitudinales-6269 📌 Une carte des preuves plutôt qu’un bilan des effets. Cette revue recense 267 études longitudinales publiées entre 2014 et 2024 et les classe en 6 thèmes (p. 5-7). Elle croise une synthèse par thème avec un décompte par technologie, type d’effet, âge et région (p. 11). Les autrices précisent qu’elle repère les grandes orientations de la recherche et ses lacunes, sans évaluer de façon définitive les effets (p. 11). Un déplacement du regard proposé par les autrices. Les études qui distinguent les façons d’utiliser le numérique trouvent des liens plus constants que celles qui mesurent le seul temps d’écran (p. 11). Les autrices en tirent une implication : passer d’un discours centré sur la responsabilité individuelle à des politiques qui agissent sur les environnements numériques des jeunes (p. 11). La revue peut aider à confronter les messages de prévention sur les écrans à ce que les études longitudinales permettent réellement d’affirmer. 🇬🇧: Daily use of digital technologies and youth health: a scoping review of longitudinal studies - https://www.pratiquesensante.com/en/blog/practices-15/usage-quotidien-des-technologies-numeriques-et-sante-des-jeunes-revue-de-portee-des-etudes-longitudinales-6269 #️⃣ #pratiquesensante #ÉcransEtJeunes #SantéMentaleJeunes #RéseauxSociaux #LittératieNumérique #DéterminantsNumériques #PréventionNumérique #RechercheLongitudinale
