"Simplification should not be a guise for deregulation.

By mistaking transparency and openness for an obstacle, not a driver, of innovation, it would shoot itself in the foot. The new transparency rules for AI and data under the EU’s AI Act may become one of the first casualties of this new impetus to roll back some of the recently adopted requirements for the providers of so-called general-purpose AI (GPAI) models.

Under the EU’s AI Act, developers of GPAI models — that is, very large AI models such as OpenAI’s GPT or Google’s Gemini models — will soon have to present a “sufficiently detailed” public summary of the data they used to train the models.

This summary could be a light-touch way to drastically advance transparency around the use of one of AI’s most precious inputs, data at little additional cost to developers.

But if the EU’s AI Office gives in to industry pressure to water down the level of detail, this summary will turn into a performative checkbox exercise that ultimately offers little value to anyone. This would be misguided and short-sighted."

EUobserver · Gutting AI transparency in the name of deregulation will not help EuropeThere has been a vibe shift in Brussels. Over are the days in which the EU postures as the global digital rulemaker who reins in Big Tech. In an attempt to shake its reputation as a tech laggard and adjust to new geopolitical realities, the EU is now pivoting toward regulatory simplification.

"Until now, Meta's AI technology has not been trained with the Facebook and Instagram data of European users. This is now set to change: From the end of May 2025, Meta wants to use the data of all adult European Facebook and Instagram users for training of its own AI applications. The data will then be used to train the company's AI-based services such as the Meta-AI chatbot on WhatsApp or language models such as Llama.

Start of training planned for 2024 postponed for the time being
Meta had already announced last year that it would use all public posts and photos from its European Facebook and Instagram users for AI training. However, Meta then postponed the project after the Irish Data Protection Authority (IDPC), which is the lead supervisory authority for Meta in the EU, approached the company with data protection issues, particularly regarding the legal basis and transparency. The procedure that is now in place makes it easier to object to Meta's use of personal data for AI training."

If the #USA had a real president like
JFK, set Russia an ultimatum, send some strategic bombers with nukes, there would not be a ceasefire, but lasting peace.

Only #trump is more interested in humiliating & exploiting Ukraine and #EU than in making a stand on the little man in the Kremlin.

Trump Is Nothing But A Failure!

U.S. Secretary of State Rubio:

"So we need to determine very quickly now whether or not this [peace agreement] is doable over the next few weeks. If it is, we're in. If it's not, then we have other priorities to focus on as well.

Because if it's not, then I think we're just going to move on from our perspective. The President feels very strongly about that."

On April 16, on the Zaporizhzhia front, Russians launched an assault that involved at least 320 soldiers, 40 units of armored vehicles, three tanks, and ten buggies.

As a result of the battle, which lasted more than two and a half hours, Russians suffered huge losses: 29 units of military equipment, 140 soldiers, and three tanks. Ukrainian Defenders did not lose a single position.
