Unlike what unconditional pessimists tell us, Humanity has never been as peaceful, healthy, tolerant, wealthy and educated as it is today. But unlike what unconditional optimists tell us, the cost of screwing it up has never been as cheap and "democratized" as it is today.

@epelboin Je vais peut être surprendre, le problème n'est "même plus" l'usage militaire, mais les postures décrédibilisantes de vierges effarouchées face à Musk-Trump, des enfants de chœur comparés à l'allié Mohammed Bin Zayed. Je pense bien sûr à ma chère école…

Billionaire-owned media were never friends of truth, but things should not matter only when they reach the comfort of western Europeans and north Americans. Another reason why I'm not part of the "let's leave Twitter" this time, and especially not today.

We live in an era of cognitive/digital apartheid and feudalism. Especially humans outside US-Canada-Europe. These are cold observations, not a passionate feeling, from someone living in the lucky side, in Switzerland, English-content consumer with a scientific background, etc.

and to the many allies of the autocrats: a wide spectrum ranging from western leftists and academics, to local elites, and the least forgivable, diaspora elites who could easily afford to politely decline relaying propaganda, and just shut up when there is no spine to speak up.

When a measure becomes a target it ceases to be a good measure This adage from Marilyn Strathern known as Goodhart's law, has implications beyond economics, public policy & AI With @le_science4all we tried few years ago to formalise it, here it is finally

The #NobelPrize in physics is very well-deserved for Hopfield and Hinton, but given AI stakes for society in our era, a useful reminder is always needed: an expert in car-making is not necessarily an expert in road safety or societal consequences of urban traffic.

@PSpagnou @MonsieurPhi Qui ne sont pas des philosophes, mais des polémistes. Dès qu'on cherche un peu dans les revues sérieuses en philosophie, les polémistes médiatiques en France n'ont aucune existence dans la scène académique mondiale.

Ça vaut que mon opinion biaisée: Une partie du bruit nuisible à la conversation publique en France, pays de brillants philosophes comme P.S Laplace, Auguste Compte ou Sophie Germain, est imputable aux institutions ayant récemment érigé des polémistes médiatiques en "philosophes".
