    “We are using this to feed a very large amount of content into the #AIModel, so that way it can learn how smart people use computers to accomplish tasks. I think that this is going to be a very big advantage if we can do it,” #Zuckerberg purportedly said during an April 30 meeting in which an employee asked about the "top of mind" issue. 🤪🧠

    … a company spokesperson confirmed in April that Meta would monitor employees to train AI. Meta's #TrackingTool is called #ModelCapabilityInitiative, according to reports.

    The audio was posted the same day Meta announced 8,000 #JobCuts. It captured Zuckerberg's thoughts on the news, first reported by #Reuters, that Meta planned to install #software on employees' computers to #monitor activity for AI training. #MorePerfectUnion did not reply to an email from The Register seeking comment.

    "So if we're trying to teach the models #coding, for example, then having #people internally build tools that or solve #tasks that help teach the model how to code, we think, is going to dramatically increase our models' coding ability #faster than what others in the industry have the capability to do, who don't have thousands and thousands of extremely #StrongEngineers 💪🤓 at their company,"

    “Women leaving the beach, going into a shop, or simply standing outside are now being approached by men usually wearing #Meta's #RayBans, the company's #smart or #AIGlasses, often in order to film the women's responses to casual questions or pick-up lines without their knowledge or consent. The women only find out about the videos of them after they gain traction, and often abuse, online”

  16. The oligarch who picked Moldova clean goes to prison.

    For years, Vlad Plahotniuc did a convincing imitation of a James Bond villain. From 2010-2019 the Moldovan oligarch, widely known as Mr P, controlled almost everything in the country.

    But on 22 April he was sentenced to 19 years in jail for his role in stealing $1bn from the country’s banks a decade ago, and fined $60m in damages.

  17. Congress members join protest against ‘#oligarch’s dinner’ for #Trump thrown by Ellisons

    Paramount Skydance CEO fetes administration as it weighs $110bn merger with CNN parent WarnerBros Discovery

    Jeremy Barr in Washington
    Thu 23 Apr 2026 20.43 EDT

    "Dozens of protesters, including members of Congress, gathered along the National Mall on Thursday to protest an 'intimate' dinner being held by #ParamountSkydance’s chief executive, #DavidEllison, 'in celebration of the first amendment' and 'honoring the Trump White House and CBS White House correspondents', and attended by Donald Trump.

    "Paramount has faced criticism for the dinner, which has been seen by some as illustrative of the cozy relationship between the #Ellisons and the White House – right as the Trump administration is weighing whether to approve the company’s $110bn merger with CNN parent company #WarnerBrosDiscovery (#WBD). The dinner comes before Saturday’s White House correspondents’ dinner, which Trump will attend. His defense secretary, #PeteHegseth, is expected to sit at one of the many tables bought by CBS News for the event.

    "Earlier Thursday, WBD shareholders voted 'overwhelmingly' to approve the merger, which will still require approval from the Department of Justice and European regulators.

    "The US representative Jamie Raskin, who has been vocal in his criticism of the Ellisons’ ownership of CBS News, referred to the event as 'a lavish oligarch’s dinner for Donald Trump'.

    " 'We’re gathered here together tonight [because] in the building behind us, David Ellison is hosting a dinner to honor President Trump, a dinner that’s designed to cement the Ellisons to the president in their years-running corrupt merger scheme,' Raskin said."

    #Brexit was solely for the purpose of letting #British #elites do a bit of money laundering, insider trading and taking bribes from #Russian and #Saudi elites at the expense of British economy, stability and democracy.
