Unusually bold statement from Japan PM here:
(This time might be really different)

At the crossroads of workable quantum computing and already workable AI, a big-bang like will occur in human history:

My humble guess is that this point in time is less than 10 years ahead.

With the surge of AI capabilities the case of lethal autonomous weapons (LAW) makes a comeback to front pages:

Like today with China, the US was surpassed technologically notably in the semi conductors industry in the past, during the 70-80', by Japan.

It eventually resulted in the 1985 Plaza USD devaluation Accord.

Trump's tariffs are only the first stage.

But this time is a bit different:
it's China.

On copyrightability of #IA generated content:
US copyright office concludes that if a human adds a single color pixel its copyrightable:

Have those guys seeming to now discover formerly published papers by Deepseek on #AI computing at least taken a glance on recent Chinese publications on #quantum computing?

. This would convert UK, South Korea, Japan, and other possible far belt countries as strategic ultimate buffer state areas,

. Mr Netanyahu's war policy might enter some sort of discomfort in the Levant.

It would be a change in dimensions :

.Elon Musk seems to have convinced Trump that the US' future is on Mars and not in the middle East,

. Consolidating the US nationalization of Bitcoin would become a priority, away from the petro-dollar financial financial platform,

Let us see if the kinetic energy holds on that pivot.

Today's Trump interview on US foreign policy is telling once you wipe out the s show:

- back in the Monroe doctrine, at any cost, to make the whole northern American continental plateau an invulnarable citadel,

- out of the 'break Eurasia unification at any cost' Brzeziński doctrine.

To identify the key differences between the current terms and conditions (T&Cs) and the new ones effective from November 15, there are several important points to consider: Change of Company Headquarters: In the new T&Cs, the headquarters of X Corp. is relocated from San Francisco, California, to Bastrop, Texas. This change could have legal implications regarding jurisdiction and applicable law. Clarification on Content Rights: The new T&Cs extend the license you grant to X Corp. to include the use of user-generated content in machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI) models. This means that content created by users can now be explicitly used for AI models, raising potential concerns about data usage and privacy. Higher Penalties for Misuse: The new T&Cs increase the penalty for requesting or viewing more than 1,000,000 posts within 24 hours. A penalty of $15,000 (in the US) or €15,000 (in the EU) per 1,000,000 posts is now introduced. Changes in Jurisdiction and Applicable Law: The new T&Cs shift the jurisdiction for users outside the US to Texas. This could be significant in legal disputes. For EU users, jurisdiction remains in Ireland, but there are now more clarifications on the conditions regarding class action lawsuits. Data Usage and Security: In the new T&Cs, privacy is still emphasized, but there is a stronger focus on data analysis, particularly in relation to improving services and using content for AI models. Stricter privacy requirements may apply, especially for EU users. There are also many smaller clarifications and adjustments governing the use of the services, but these five points stand out as the most important changes explicitly mentioned in the new T&Cs.

I had ChatGPT compare the new X ToS that will come into effect on November 15th to the old ones. The most relevant point is the second one: X will use all your content to train the "Grok" AI and you will not be compensated for it.

The story around China issuing USD-denominated sovereign bonds in Saudi Arabia is generating an enormous amount of buzz in China, and could potentially be immensely important.

I strongly suspect it's a message to the upcoming Trump administration.

A small 🧵

So refreshing.

Oh my, Frances is here, so great, hello! @francescoppola.bsky.social
